A few days later, the day after the snow stopped, the royal family of the Kingdom of Leon arrived for their winter hunt as scheduled.
At this time every year, the Kingdom of Leon will hold such a winter hunt, and all the participants will be royal relatives. Because the Kingdom of Leon advocates warriors, many noble youths will participate in this winter hunt to take the opportunity to show off their bravery.
Women can also participate, but women are basically at the edge of the forest and will not go deep.
On the day of winter hunting, Sheng Nuan appeared in the hunting ground with Emperor Stephen in a dark red riding outfit... The surrounding mountains and forests were covered in silver, and she was dressed in a red riding outfit, bright and flamboyant.
Snow and Yingxue were at the front of the team that was about to join the hunt. When they saw the king and queen coming out, everyone cheered.
Snow stared blankly at the queen in red, feeling that his heart was beating faster and faster, and an idea came to his mind: he wanted to get the golden dagger this time.
The golden dagger is given to the warrior who performs best in the winter hunting, which represents bravery and fearlessness. He wants to get the golden dagger... In this way, she should understand that he is more worthy of her attention than Yingxue.
The young man's heart was like fire. When the hunting started, Snow was the first to rush into the dense forest with thick snow...
Stephen did not participate, but Sheng Nuan thought it was fun, so she went with some noble women riding young mares to look for rabbits, squirrels and the like at the edge of the forest.
She accidentally saw a gray rabbit running past in the distance. She drew her bow and arrow and shot out. The rabbit fell to the ground and started flopping on the spot.
A guard immediately ran over and picked up the rabbit.
Sheng Nuan's arrow passed through the rabbit's hind leg, and there was blood on the rabbit's hind leg. Some of the ladies around were covering their lips and exclaiming, while others were applauding and flattering.
"Oh my god, it turns out that the queen has such good archery skills."
"Yeah, it's really surprising."
"Queen Ivy is not only beautiful, but also so brave. She is simply a role model for us women..."
In the midst of all the flattery, a clear and delicate voice sounded.
"Dear Queen Ivy, could you be so kind as to let that poor rabbit go?"
The person who spoke was a red-haired girl wearing a green riding outfit, with a bright and attractive face. She was looking at Sheng Nuan with her lips pouting.
It's Silla, the daughter of the Duke of Khanmore.
Sheng Nuan looked at the rabbit that had been shot through the leg and couldn't survive if it were let go, and was a little puzzled: "Why should we let it go? It's very fat."
Silla's eyes were full of sympathy: "But it looks so pitiful. Its family must be waiting for it to go back. If you just take it away, its family will be sad."
Sheng Nuan thoughtfully said: "That's right."
Before Sila opposite could show a happy smile, Sheng Nuan raised her hand and ordered the guards behind her: "Find and capture this rabbit's family members together."
Facing the girl Silla's stiff expression, Sheng Nuan smiled: "In this way, their family will be reunited, right?"
Silla is about to cry...
Some noble ladies covered their lips and snickered, mocking Silla for being weak, while others quickly changed the subject.
Sheng Nuan didn't care at all. Just as he was about to continue walking into the forest to take a look, he heard the customer service suddenly speak urgently: "Host, Princess Snow White, no, Prince Yingxue is in danger."
Yingxue was surrounded by several wild wolves.
In the original plot, Yingxue did not participate in this winter hunt. Unexpectedly, something went wrong as soon as she participated.
Sheng Nuan was speechless. She took a few guards with her and went straight to where Yingxue was as an excuse to look around.
In the dense forest, Yingxue's horse was surrounded by wild wolves. He was frightened and threw him off the horse. Then the horse was bitten to death by the wild wolves.
The wild wolves were too close, so he threw down his bow and arrow, held his sword, and looked at the five wild wolves around him with an expressionless expression.
Those hungry beasts arched their backs and roared at him, their eyes full of green light... The next moment, they rushed towards him one after another.
Yingxue waved her sword to resist, but his physical strength was limited. There were five wild wolves attacking from all directions, and he was quickly injured.
His back and shoulders were scratched with blood by wild wolves, and his left leg was bitten with blood. He stabbed the wild wolf biting his left leg to death with a sword, staggered backward and fell to the ground.
Seeing him fall, the other four wild wolves swarmed up like crazy... At this moment, a whooshing sound broke through the air.
The arrows fired by the guards killed three wild wolves, and the last wild wolf rushed in front of Yingxue.
Sharp claws and a fishy breath rushed towards his face, but at that moment, a sword thrust out from the oblique ground and pierced the wild wolf's neck.
Blood splashed on her face. Yingxue blinked and saw Queen Ivy in red frowning and reaching out to him: "Come up."
At the same time, several wild wolves, attracted by the smell of blood, once again appeared in the forest opposite.
Yingxue pursed her lips and stretched out her hand, then was pulled onto the horse's back.
"Hold on to me."
Sheng Nuan spoke coldly, then held the horse's reins and kicked the horse's belly: "Drive!"
The guards behind him all fired arrows...
Sheng Nuan was protected by the guards and rushed towards the seven or eight wild wolves in front. She held the horse rein in one hand and the sword in the other, her eyebrows were cold.
Yingxue hugged her waist and leaned against her in an effort to reduce his influence on her, and then he saw her knocking over the attacking wolf with a sword.
The cold wind blew across his cheeks, and the smell of blood hit his nostrils. Yingxue heard his stepmother's warm voice saying to him: "Your Highness, don't be afraid."
