After resting for half an hour, everyone gathered in the open space in the middle of the yard.

Ye Youlan ordered everyone to be divided into five groups. The competition time was one hour. The group with the largest number of people would be the first and the prince would give a reward.

Chen Xiaoling laughed: "If the prince is first, he can't reward himself, right?"

Ye Youlan smiled, "Smart! If the prince and I come first, the expenses of this hunting trip will be shared equally by all of you. If any of your groups takes first place, the prince will cover all expenses and there will be an additional reward."

Chen Xiaoling asked, "You want us to play four against one? Are you too confident?"

Ye Youlan was proud: "I am confident in my prince."

The game begins, everyone sets off.

Li Miaoyu was a little embarrassed. She thought she was only responsible for logistics today. She had maids to help her anyway, so she just had to look beautiful. She didn't expect that she would have to participate in person.

Zhang Liang saw that she was a little reluctant, so he comforted her: "If you lose, you lose. Just consider it a chance to relax. The scenery in this forest is quite nice. I'll be in charge of hunting, and you can chat with me."

Li Miaoyu blushed and her heart was pounding.

Chen Xiaoling likes red. When she came, she was wearing a pomegranate red shirt and skirt. Now she is wearing a red corset, which is particularly dazzling and makes her skin look whiter than snow. Chen Su turned her head away and dared not look at her directly.

Chen Xiaoling looked at Chen Su, who was dressed in a dark blue corset, looking neat and tidy, with a straight body, completely different from her usual frail image. She smiled and said, "Let's team up. Don't feel burdened. If you lose, I'll pay, and if you win, the prize is yours."

Chen Su blushed: "I have money."

Chen Xiaoling wasn't the type to be sentimental, so she didn't say anything more when he told her he had money. The two of them walked towards the woods, one in front and one behind.

Jin Ruoyun and Li Chuang didn't care about winning or losing the game. It was a rare occasion for the couple to go on a trip together. Li Chuang was usually very busy, and Ruoyun had to take care of the household, so it was rare for them to have such a peaceful and quiet day.

The autumn sun shines through the woods, the light is bright and beautiful, and it makes a crackling sound when you step on the soft leaves.

Ye Youlan took the Seventh Prince's hand and walked up the path. "Is this hunting ground safe, Prince?"

"Don't worry, the hunting ground is not very big. The palace's people are all around within a five-mile radius. If you look up, you might see a secret guard hiding in a tree."

Speaking of secret guards, Ye Youlan thought of Li Yi. She told the Seventh Prince, "Can Li Yi not be a secret guard?"

The Seventh Prince stopped and looked sideways at her. Why?

"I'll need him to run around in the future. I don't think being a secret guard is right for him. Plus, I'm planning to marry Xiaomei to him! I can't let him stay in trees or on rooftops every day after we get married, leaving Xiaomei alone in the empty room."

The Seventh Prince laughed: "Are you really planning to summon the Dragon Ball?"

Ye Youlan reminded: "Don't mention the word Dragon Ball casually. If the emperor hears about it, you will lose your head."

"Are you clear-headed now?"

Ye Youlan asked the Seventh Prince, "What small animals are there in the hunting grounds? You won't release some chickens, ducks, or rabbits to entertain us, will you?"

"I don't know. I hunt whatever I see. What game do you want?"

Ye Youlan laughed, and the Seventh Prince asked her what she was laughing at?

"Because the best prey is right next to me, the rest are up to you."

"You treat me as prey?"

"The world's most advanced hunters appear as prey. Look, I treated you as prey, and ended up losing myself."

"Are you still not satisfied?"

"Satisfied, satisfied, a hundred times satisfied. I wake up smiling even in my dreams."

Ye Youlan and the Seventh Prince walked up the mountain, while Jin Ruoyun and Li Chuang walked towards the valley. As they walked, Li Chuang introduced Ruoyun to the new things he saw, such as a butterfly and a wild flower that surprised Ruoyun.

Ruoyun smiled: "I thought you were from a military background and only knew how to lead troops in battle. I didn't expect you to know so much."

Li Chuang's handsome features were bright and sunny. "I have to thank the Seventh Prince for this. He can study and fight at the same time. When we are not fighting on the front line, we either practice or study. The prince will have the clerk assign us tasks and test us from time to time."

"I never knew you had such a close relationship with the prince. I thought it was because of Youlan and I that you were allowed to get close!"

Li Chuang reminded Ruoyun to be careful of the branches on the ground in front of her: "Two years ago, when we came back from the front, I went to the Patrol City Office and he went to Jinguifang. On the surface, we were estranged, but in fact, we each performed our duties."

Ruoyun didn't know much about the affairs of the court. She saw a faint flash of red clothes in front of her. If she guessed correctly, it should be Chen Xiaoling and Chen Su.

She pointed ahead and then upwards. Li Chuang understood, so the two of them changed their route.

Chen Xiaoling, likes new things just like Ye Youlan. This is her first time hunting, so she is very excited and started preparing a few days in advance.

She was dressed in a red corset, neatly dressed, with black hair, fair skin, and rosy and attractive lip balm on her lips. Chen Su walked side by side with her and could smell the fragrance of the girl. His face flushed slightly and he walked quickly forward.

Chen Xiaoling shouted, "Chen Su, why are you running so fast? Did you find your prey?"

"I, I, seemed to have discovered it, but it turned out not to be the case."

Seeing Chen Su's incoherent speech, Chen Xiaoling wanted to laugh: "Are you uncomfortable with me? I told you to relax and don't feel pressured."

"I'm not uncomfortable." Chen Su muttered after saying this, "In fact, I really like being with you."

But Chen Xiaoling was not listening carefully. Her attention was attracted by a little rabbit in the distance. It was a gray rabbit lying behind a rock with its little head sticking out.

Chen Xiaoling took out a dagger from his waist and whispered, "Chen Su, there is a rabbit in front, prepare to shoot an arrow."

Chen Su drew her bow and aimed, shooting an arrow. The little rabbit cried out and ran away.

"It should have been shot. Let's go catch it."

After Chen Xiaoling finished speaking, she pulled Chen Su's sleeve and ran down. Chen Su couldn't help but follow her. As a result, Chen Xiaoling stepped on empty air and fell into the trap, and Chen Su fell on her.

Chen Su's face turned redder than pig blood. He tried to prop up his arms and keep his body away from Chen Xiaoling, but when he fell, his right arm was wrapped around Chen Xiaoling's waist and was hit hard. It should be broken now.

Chen Xiaoling was lying on the ground, looking at Chen Suhong's face, which had turned purple. She couldn't help but smile. What an honest man.

The trap was too narrow for two people to lie side by side. Chen Xiaoling asked Chen Su to go to the left and she went to the right, and stood up first.

Chen Xiaoling got up and helped Chen Su up. Seeing that his right arm was red and swollen, she hurriedly asked him if it hurt.

Chen Su looked at Chen Xiaoling, who was standing almost close to him, and his eyes quickly shifted: "It doesn't hurt."

"It's funny that I didn't catch any prey but fell into a pit."

Chen Su quickly apologized after hearing this: "I'm sorry, I got you into trouble. How about we call for help?"

"No, that's too embarrassing. Let's find a way out ourselves."

Chen Xiaoling used a dagger to cut off a piece of cloth from the corner of Chen Su's clothes and bandaged him simply. She then cut off another piece of cloth and hung it around Chen Su's neck, hanging his arm up.

Chen Su smiled: "I didn't expect you knew all this?"

"What do you mean, do you think I'm uneducated?"

"That's not what I meant, don't get me wrong."
