"Thank you, Your Highness, Princess." Guanyue glanced at Jiang Dejia gratefully, and then left with the maid.
Yuan'er was unwilling to give in, but she didn't know what to do.
Jiang Dejia obviously sided with Prince Ning.
"Let's go." Wen Qinglan glanced at Wen Qingzhu, turned around and left unwillingly.
But this time, Wen Qingzhu took the initiative to call her out: "Concubine Lan, can I talk to you?"
Wen Qinglan turned her eyes sideways and sneered at the corner of her mouth: "Miss Wen Qi actually has something to talk to me about?"
"This matter is related to His Royal Highness the King of Chu. I think it is necessary to tell you." Wen Qingzhu carried Jiang Yuancheng out with a smile.
"You!" Wen Qinglan can ignore anything, but she still has to take care of things that concern Jiang Yuancheng.
Wen Qingzhu and Jiang Dejia said something to each other and followed Wen Qinglan to her tent.
After withdrawing the servants, Wen Qinglan didn't even serve tea and asked directly: "What's the matter?"
"Princess Dejia's maid was shot just now. The arrow looks very similar to the one used by His Highness the King of Chu. I suggest you remind the King of Chu."
But Wen Qinglan didn't believe it at all: "Are you so kind?"
"Of course, after all, His Royal Highness the King of Chu has helped me several times, so I know how to repay a favor." The smile on Wen Qingzhu's face slowly deepened.
Wen Qinglan, who was sitting opposite her, trembled all over, patted the table and said, "You want to get close to His Highness!?"
"Getting close doesn't count, it's just a sign of goodwill." Wen Qingzhu glanced at the curtain at the door casually.
I don't know if someone is there, or the maid guard guarding the door is too close, and I can vaguely see a blurry shadow.
"Showing good intentions?" Wen Qinglan laughed angrily, and the worries in her heart could not be controlled.
Wen Qingzhu tried his best to show sincerity: "Fourth sister, I came here this time to really show my goodwill. If His Highness the King of Chu needs help in any way, please feel free to ask."
"I don't need your help!" Wen Qinglan stood up suddenly and began to panic.
If Wen Qingzhu really shows his kindness, His Highness will definitely forgive Wen Qingzhu!
Maybe he would even be willing to marry her as his concubine no matter the cost!
no! Absolutely not!
Wen Qinglan quickly suppressed the panic in her heart and tried her best to curb the urge to kill: "Miss Qi, Your Highness does not need your help."
"The king needs it!"
With Jiang Yuancheng's cold voice, the door curtain was opened.
Wen Qinglan suddenly turned her head and saw Yuan'er who lowered his head at the door, hating the iron in his heart.
Jiang Yuancheng walked over, clasping his hands behind his back, without even looking at Wen Qinglan, and ordered: "You can go down, and there is no need to punish Yuan'er. I asked her to keep silent."
"Concubine, I obey." Wen Qinglan could only break her teeth and swallow the blood into her stomach.
Before leaving, Wen Qingzhu said with some worry: "Your Highness, why don't you let Concubine Lan stay?"
Jiang Yuancheng was in a good mood today and waved his hand: "No, what do you want to tell me?"
The moment the curtain fell, Wen Qinglan's face was filled with dark clouds.
She glared at Yuan'er sideways and commanded grimly: "Come with me."
Yuan'er was a little scared, but quickly followed.
Yang Dong, who was standing not far away, couldn't help but worry when he saw this scene: "Should I tell the master?"
Within the camp.
"...His Royal Highness King Chu, what I said is all something I can do. I hope you can think about it carefully. This is a win-win cooperation."
Jiang Yuancheng tapped his knuckles lightly on the table, feeling a little unsure.
If what Wen Qingzhu said is true, then what is her purpose in doing this
Taken together, only the Lu family has benefited.
To be more precise, it was Lu Ce who had just arrived in the capital.
Seeing that Jiang Yuancheng remained silent, Wen Qingzhu felt confident. It seemed that her plan was working.
"Your Highness, if you have any other requests, just ask, and I will try my best to satisfy you if I can." Wen Qingzhu showed a very sincere expression, with a hint of urgency in his tone.
Jiang Yuancheng stopped what he was doing and suddenly asked, "Do you like Lu Ce?"
"No!" Wen Qingzhu immediately denied it, but deliberately pursed his lips and began to dodge his eyes.
What appeared in front of Jiang Yuancheng was a shy little girl trying her best to stay calm.
If she were an ordinary person, she would definitely believe her.
But Jiang Yuancheng didn't. He looked deeply at Wen Qingzhu and asked himself: What do you want to do? Not only did they not prevent the marriage between Fu Lie and Jiang Dejia, but they also wanted to promote them.
After being silent for a long time, Jiang Yuancheng only said: "I need to think about it."
"Thank you, Your Highness, King Chu. I'll leave first." Wen Qingzhu blessed himself respectfully before retreating.
As soon as he went out, Wen Qingzhu relaxed and told Lu Tao: "Let's go find the princess."
"Yes." Lu Tao turned around and looked inside the curtain, just in time to see Jiang Yuancheng getting up and touching the spot where his young lady had been sitting.
Huh! How perverted!
Arriving at Jiang Dejia's tent.
Everyone who went to pick up Wen Qingzhu was there.
Seeing her coming in, everyone turned their attention to her.
Jiang Dejia immediately stood up and assigned a palace servant to bring a chair for Wen Qingzhu.
"Yijia just came over and invited us to go hunting together. We were discussing what to do?"
After sitting down, Wen Qingzhu couldn't help but frown: "If you don't want to go, just go. Why do we still need to discuss it?"
"Because Princess Yijia has the emperor's will." Lei Shuo said.
Immediately afterwards, Liang Pingshu also said: "Princess Yijia has held a hunting competition before. If nothing else, she must have made arrangements."
After saying this, Liang Pingshu looked at Fu Yu.
Fu Yu's face trembled as he was being stared at: "Don't all look at me. I brought Zhixuan with me specifically to avoid being alone with Princess Yijia."
He still clearly remembers the bad things Jiang Yijia did when the Yue Kingdom rebels forced the palace.
In his eyes, Jiang Yijia is a person who has gone crazy.
If it weren't for that jade pendant, he wouldn't have come here at all.
"What did she do before?" Wen Qingzhu was a little surprised. Why hadn't she heard about Jiang Yijia before
Even in the previous life, Jiang Yijia never married Fu Yu.
After the fall of King Ning, she was forced to be sent to the Xiongnu and Qiang people for marriage, but she died on the way before reaching the northwest.
Just as Jiang Dejia was about to speak, Jiang Yijia's voice came from outside.
"Sister Dejia, are you ready?"
The curtain was suddenly opened, and Jiang Yijia was wearing a purple riding outfit, with her back to the light, and she actually looked a bit sinister.
"Not yet." Jiang Dejia stood up first. She knew very well what Jiang Yijia wanted to do after living with her for more than ten years.
Jiang Yijia walked in and glanced around from left to right.
Her eyes finally stopped on Pei Zhixuan next to Fu Yu, and she walked over slowly.
Pei Zhixuan had to stand up and salute: "I have met Princess Yijia."
"How come the most beautiful woman in the capital has time to come here? Don't they say you are aloof and aloof and don't like to participate in such secular activities?"
As Jiang Yijia spoke, she reached out her hand to hold Pei Zhixuan's chin.
Fu Yu, who was sitting next to her, finally couldn't sit still anymore. He quickly reached out and grabbed Jiang Yijia's wrist: "Your Highness, I brought her here. Please forgive me, Princess."
Jiang Yijia, who had never had contact with Fu Yu, was suddenly stunned at this moment.
For some reason, her body showed instinctive resistance and she directly shook off Fu Yu's hand.
Fu Yu was stunned for a moment, and then he handed over his hands to plead guilty: "It's a humble minister who has exceeded the rules. Please punish me, princess."
Jiang Yijia took two steps back in fear, and some fragmentary pictures suddenly flashed in front of her eyes.
The disgust and fear coming from the depths of her soul made her whole body tremble uncontrollably.
"Princess Yijia?" Fu Yu noticed something strange about her.
Jiang Yijia looked up and realized that the person in front of her was Fu Yu, and then she came to her senses.
She looked at her wrist and then at Fu Yu's hand, feeling very strange.
This is the first time Fu Yu has actively contacted him. How could he hate him
"It's okay, I'm just a little surprised by Miss Pei's appearance." Jiang Yijia returned to her gentle look and glanced at Pei Zhixuan lightly.
Pei Zhixuan lowered her head and said nothing, but the corners of her mouth curled up.
She saw Jiang Yijia's reaction just now.
She resisted even when Fu Yu touched her. It seemed that Jiang Yijia had suffered a lot.
The most important thing is that Concubine Li and Prince Ning spent a lot of money to find a way to make her forget this incident.
This episode passed quickly, and due to the emperor's will, everyone had no choice but to accept it.
When they gathered outside, Wen Qingzhu found that King Ning and King Chu had already arrived.
They stood side by side under the pergola, seeming to be talking.
They stopped when they saw the crowd coming.
"Brother Imperial, they all need to participate, okay? I'll set the rules, okay?" Jiang Yijia ran up to Prince Ning, took his arm and said coquettishly.
Prince Ning looked at Fu Yu and Pei Zhixuan, then looked away and touched Jiang Yijia's head.
He acted like a brother: "Okay, but you can't go too far. After all, the people who can come here are either relatives of the emperor or children of aristocratic families."
"Yijia understands." Jiang Yijia suddenly smiled as brightly as a flower.
She turned around and explained the rules to everyone: "It's very simple. Team up in pairs. Whoever catches the most prey is the winner. The winner can ask the person who caught the least prey to do one thing."
Wen Qingzhu felt that it shouldn't be that simple.
As expected, Jiang Yijia continued to say: "During the hunting process, it doesn't matter what the means, as long as you respond! I will be in a group with Fu Yu, my brother and Ping Shu will be in a group, and everyone else can do whatever they want!"
Wen Qingzhu was speechless for a while.
"Your Highness, this is the first time for Zhixuan to hunt here and she needs someone to take care of her. I am the only one who is most familiar with this place. Princess, please choose someone else."
Fu Yu was the first to express his unwillingness.
How could Liang Pingshu lag behind: "His Royal Highness Prince Ning is a good hunter, so it is better to take care of Princess Yijia. I'd better go with Lei Yan."
As soon as these words were said, both people's attitudes became clear.
Wen Qingzhu raised his head and glanced at King Chu, wondering if he would agree
This look was quickly noticed by Fu Lie, and he also looked at Jiang Yuancheng.
Jiang Yuancheng, who was still hesitating at first, immediately smiled when he saw Fu Lie like this: "How about this, how about I come to accompany the Lord Yi Pingshu County?"
"You?" Jiang Yijia was stunned, incredulous.
Wen Qingzhu closed his eyes, and it seemed that he agreed to the original cost.
Prince Ning narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at Jiang Yuancheng and said, "Do you know the purpose of this hunting?"
"Of course I know. I don't hunt often, so I can let Pingshu teach me. County Lord, are you willing?"
Jiang Yuancheng said as he walked up to Liang Pingshu.
His attitude was so serious that Liang Pingshu once doubted that Jiang Yuancheng really wanted to help her.
But soon, Prince Ning's words calmed her down.
"Fifth Emperor Brother! Are you going to go against this king?" Prince Ning's tone began to contain a hint of danger.
Jiang Yuancheng's face was calm, he turned around and said calmly: "It's not that I am against the emperor, but I feel that Pingshu will choose me more than the emperor."
