Chenghu sat beside him with a helpless look on his face, looked at the other person and said, "Seventh Uncle, I'm already the father of two children, why do you still call me Xiaotuantuan? This makes me so embarrassed!" He frowned slightly, with a hint of dissatisfaction and complaint in his tone, as if he was a little bothered by this title.

Long Xi scratched his head and said embarrassedly, "I've been calling you like this since you were a child. It's become accustomed to you and it's hard to change it all of a sudden." There was a hint of apology on his face, but his eyes revealed the nostalgia and cherishment for the past times.

Cheng Hu looked at the man before him, feeling somewhat puzzled. He knew that this Seventh Uncle was usually invisible, but today he had deliberately waited for him outside the palace gates, figuring there must be something important. So he asked, "Seventh Uncle, why are you waiting for me here today? Is there something important you want to discuss with me?"

Long Xi: "Oh, I've been feeling really pent up lately and want to go out for horseback riding and hunting! That's why I came to find you. Come and accompany your seventh uncle." He patted the other's shoulder, his eyes full of anticipation and excitement.

Cheng Hu smiled and said, "Seventh Uncle, have you finished your work?" His voice was clear and pleasant, full of the youthful vigor and energy.

Longxi looked at him helplessly, sighed, and said, "Alas, when did you see your seventh uncle and I have an errand? Your father didn't arrange anything for me." As he spoke, he waved his hand, indicating that he really had nothing to do. Then, he continued, "Besides, the affairs of the court are not something I can influence."

Chenghu smiled and said, "Seventh Uncle, I don't have a horse to ride and I don't have a bow and arrow. Even if I want to go hunting now, I can't! How about this, you come back home with me, and after I prepare everything, we can go horseback riding and hunting." He looked at Longxi expectantly.

Long Xi: "Okay, then let's go to your Prince's Mansion first."

The two of them came to the prince's mansion together, and Chenghu ordered his servants to prepare horses and bows and arrows.

"Seventh Uncle, please wait a moment, I will be back soon." Chenghu turned and left.

Long Xi sat on a chair and drank tea: "The tea in my nephew's house is quite good."

After a while, Chenghu returned, followed by two guards?

"Seventh Uncle, let's go." Chenghu was the first to walk out of the mansion.

The group rode their horses towards the mountains and forests outside the city. Longxi and Chenghu chatted and laughed along the way.

Soon, they arrived at their destination, which was a great place for hunting with its picturesque scenery, lush vegetation, and green mountains.

Chenghu dismounted, drew his bow and shot an arrow with skill, and a hare fell to the ground.

"Good skills!" Long Xi praised.

Cheng Hu smiled slightly and said, "My father and my uncle taught me horseback riding and archery."

Chenghu reached out and picked up the rabbit, putting it in his pocket. Then, he drew his bow again and aimed at a fawn not far away. However, the fawn seemed to sense danger and nimbly dodged Chenghu's arrow.

"This deer is quite clever." Long Xi couldn't help but laugh when he saw this.

Undeterred, Chenghu steered his horse closer to the deer. Just then, a gust of wind rustled the leaves. Chenghu seized the opportunity and shot an arrow, hitting the deer squarely in the body.

"Haha, I hit it!" Chenghu cheered excitedly.

Longxi also smiled in appreciation.

Cheng Hu dismounted and walked towards the fallen deer, intending to pick it up when he suddenly heard a tiger roar not far away. Startled, he quickly turned around and saw a tiger leap out of the woods and pounce directly towards them.

Longxi quickly drew his sword and engaged the tiger. Chenghu quickly climbed onto his horse, drew his bow and arrows, and prepared to provide support. However, the tiger was incredibly ferocious, and after several attacks, Longxi gradually began to struggle.

Chenghu seized the opportunity and shot an arrow into the tiger's eye. The tiger, in pain, temporarily stopped attacking. Longxi took advantage of this opportunity and stabbed the tiger in the abdomen with his sword. Ultimately, the tiger was injured and fled, and the crisis was averted.

"That was a close call," Chenghu said with a lingering fear. Longxi patted him on the shoulder and said, "It's okay, but we can't stay here for long. Let's leave as soon as possible." With that, the two of them hurried back to the capital with their prey.
