The news of Lu Shuang'er's dismissal spread almost all over the capital. Those who had been ridiculed by her in the past all clapped their hands and applauded. Some even said that this was expected long ago. Lu Shuang'er seemed to be an unlucky person.
No one in the capital likes Lu Shuang'er. When she was favored, even the wives of other aristocratic families looked down on her. She was arrogant and rude, and humiliation was common. Therefore, when they learned that she was deposed, many people had no room to celebrate with firecrackers.
The Lu family didn't close their doors to thank guests, they just reduced their contacts, and even the servants didn't show up very often.
However, no one thought that the Lu family would lose power because of this. After all, their family still had a princess, the Marquis of Anyang who had just been named a general.
Ye Zhen is not interested in how the outside world evaluates Lu Shuang'er. She has long since lost her original hatred for Lu Shuang'er, so why should she care about someone who is completely unworthy of being her opponent.
Just like Dr. Huang and Gao Xueping.
Medical Officer Huang and Gao Xueping were transferred to the Changzhou prison camp to be doctors. Originally, Gong Tang wanted to drive Gao Xueping out of the palace and let Medical Officer Huang go to the college as a teacher. However, the Queen Mother knew about the Royal Hospital and directly demoted Medical Officer Huang. Reasons It's not disrespect to the princess, but it's unfair. She doesn't have the benevolence of a doctor. Let her learn how to be a doctor first.
She used to be a fifth-rank medical officer, but now she is a doctor with no taste. Medical officer Huang... No, Huang Rou is naturally unwilling, but she can't do anything. I guess I can't save my life.
She took Gao Xueping out of the palace that day.
Ye Zhen didn't feel gloating about the punishment they received, but she was very happy. Doctor Huang's heart is too hostile, and if she stays in the palace, something will happen to her.
Because of this incident, the female doctors at the Medical Women's Institute have a little more respect for Ye Zhen, and they don't dare to play around like they used to. Only Chen Jinru and Xia Yaohua still treat her as before.
The next day, Ye Zhen and Murong Yi went out of the palace together, ready to go hunting in the hunting ground outside the city, she asked someone to go to Lu's house to fetch her bow and arrow, and rode out of the city with Murong Yi.
Accompanied by them, there are several companions of Murongyi, and the family members who played polo together last time. Ye Zhen and them have fought together before, so they are familiar with each other. Hongying also took it with her.
Outside the hunting ground, Tang Zhen was already waiting for them.
Tang Zhen is considered a newly rising nobleman in the capital. Compared with the Lu family who used to be a merchant, the Tang family is a scholarly family, so it is easier to be accepted by other aristocratic families. Moreover, he does not have an arrogant sister who is a noble concubine in the palace.
"Yaoyao." Tang Zhen rode up and looked at Ye Zhen with a smile.
"Jingninghou, you are here." Murongyi was very happy to see him, and immediately waved.
The others seemed to know that Tang Zhen would also come, and there was no surprise, but full of anticipation.
Ye Zhen frowned, "Brother Tang, why are you here?"
"The little prince invited me to hunt." Tang Zhen replied as a matter of course, his eyes fell on Ye Zhen's face greedily.
"Brother Tang promised to teach us archery." Murongyi said happily.
Ye Zhen glanced at him lightly, "Didn't you ask me to teach you?"
Murongyi said embarrassingly, "You alone can't teach so many of us. Besides, if it is spread in the future that this king's archery was taught by a little girl, wouldn't that be embarrassing?"
"You want face? Then you win first and I'll talk later." Ye Zhen snorted, she felt that Tang Zhen must have a purpose here, otherwise Murongyi wouldn't have invited him to come with him.
Tang Zhen didn't want to upset Ye Zhen, so he said with a smile, "Little prince, Yaoyao, let's go into the forest."
Ye Zhen glanced at him, rode her horse into the hunting forest, Tang Zhen followed, and walked beside her, "Yaoyao, my little prince invited me here."
"I heard that you gave him a set of bows and arrows. You are really bothering the little prince." Ye Zhen smiled lightly, don't think she doesn't know what he is planning.
Tang Zhen coughed lightly, "That's because I have a heart for the little prince, it has nothing to do with my wanting to see you."
Ye Zhen laughed softly, "What do you want to see me for?"
"About what you told me last time..." Tang Zhen glanced at her, "Yaoyao, I've figured it out."
"Brother Tang, Yaoyao, what are you talking about?" Murong Yi suddenly chased up on his horse and interrupted Tang Zhen.
Ye Zhen didn't really care about Tang Zhen's answer. From her point of view, Tang Zhen would not be willing to give up everything for her. He was the only one left in the Tang family, and he needed to bear the responsibility for the revival of the Tang family.
"Let's talk about who has more prey." Ye Zhen smiled and replied to Murong Yi, "Didn't you practice archery for a few days? Do your best in a while."
Murongyi blushed and said, "Although I practiced, it's just a little different. I didn't hunt often before."
Ye Zhen laughed, turned her head and said to Tang Zhen, "Brother Tang, teach them, otherwise this little guy will return empty-handed in a while."
"You underestimated me?" Murongyi yelled angrily, "Wait and see, I'll beat you more in a while!"
"Okay, I'll wait and see." Ye Zhen nodded with a smile.
Tang Zhen saw that it was not time to talk to Ye Zhen, so he put away all his thoughts and concentrated on telling Murong Yi and the others to hunt. This kind of thing was brought in by the master, and he could only say a few words if he practiced it personally. It's a skill, anyway, these kids are usually good at archery, but they don't go out to hunt much.
"The prey in the hunting grounds are relatively gentle and young, and there are no ferocious beasts, so you don't have to worry, just calm down and look for the target." Tang Zhen said to them with a smile.
Murongyi was eager to try it, and wished he could try it himself right away. He was so old, and it was the first time he went out to hunt. The last time he sneaked out, but because of his lack of experience, he fell into the trap dug by the hunter.
"How about we divide into two groups and compete?" Tang Zhen suggested with a smile.
"So what if you win, so what if you lose?" Ye Zhen asked, since there are so many people hunting, it's only interesting to have a game.
A family member next to Murongyi said loudly, "If you lose, please go to Fengyue Tower to have a big meal."
Fengyue Building? Ye Zhen raised her eyebrows, this is known as the most luxurious restaurant in Kyoto, not only has the world famous wines and dishes, but also the most beautiful courtesans, but the courtesans in Fengyuelou do not sell themselves, Ye Zhen used to I followed Ye Yiqing to see it.
Tang Zhen was about to deny this suggestion, he thought Ye Zhen would not like to go to this place.
"Okay." Ye Zhen readily agreed, and there is nothing wrong with revisiting the old place.
