That's right, poor Li Mo has not been able to "express his feelings" to the Sixth Princess successfully so far.
In the view of the Sixth Princess, Li Mo usually comes to pick fights every other month, and it is just an irritation that needs to be dealt with. The shameless follow behind her today was also under the instructions of the Fourth Prince, and wanted to cause trouble for her.
hehe!
Just put everything to good use!
The Sixth Princess said calmly: "The smell of blood here will attract birds and beasts more easily. You can rest for a while and then go look for prey."
The sixth princess actually talked to him so much!
Li Mo looked at the Sixth Princess infatuatedly, quietly intoxicated. For a moment, he even forgot to answer.
The sixth princess raised her eyebrows slightly, and her voice suddenly turned cold: "What's wrong? You don't want to?"
"Yes! Of course I do!"
Li Mo stood up quickly as if he had been given a shot of blood. His sore legs suddenly gained strength, and his voice was particularly loud: "I'm going right now!"
The sixth princess hummed with satisfaction.
Lunch is such a waste of time. Just eat some wild fruits and it will be a complete lunch.
Throughout the afternoon, Li Mo worked hard to make bait. He searched for prey everywhere, and then led him to the place where the Sixth Princess lurked. The Sixth Princess was right, the strong smell of blood did tend to attract wild beasts.
The Sixth Princess hunted a leopard, two deer, two wild boars and a bison. In terms of the number of prey, they were not the largest. But they were all huge and ferocious beasts. They were not at the same level as hares, pheasants, goats and the like.
In the evening, the sixth princess went down the mountain contentedly.
Li Mo ran for most of the day, and his legs were almost useless. His calves were shaking when he walked, and he tried hard not to expose them.
The sixth princess had deceived Li Mo for a whole day and was in a very happy mood. She glanced at Li Mo deliberately and said, "Are you unable to walk?"
Li Mo would never give in in front of his sweetheart, and immediately said: "Of course not. I saw that Her Royal Highness was quite tired after a day of hunting, so I slowed down on purpose."
The sixth princess said calmly: "As long as you're not tired."
Then he quickened his pace.
Li Mo: "..."
I call you a bitch! I tell you to save face and suffer!
Li Mo felt like crying. He mustered up the energy to follow.
The imperial guards following the two looked at Li Mo sympathetically.
Her Royal Highness the Sixth Princess was extremely skilled and cold and ferocious when hunting, which made them feel frightened even when they saw her. This Young Master Li dared to follow the Sixth Princess all the time and took the initiative to act as a bait. He was deceived for a whole day without even realizing it...
Of course, it's also possible that you know it but are happy with it.
How admirable!
…
Li Mo followed the carriage all the way.
The Sixth Princess glanced at him with some impatience. Li Mo then reluctantly opened his mouth and said, "I will hunt with Her Royal Highness tomorrow."
Then, he turned back three times and left.
The prey was carried onto the carriage.
A guard suddenly ran forward and reported in a low voice: "Your Highness the Princess, there is a white deer in the carriage. I don't know who put it in the wrong place, or gave it to Your Highness specially."
White deer?
The Sixth Princess was a little surprised and quickly reacted.
A white deer is a good sign. Hunting a white deer and presenting it to Emperor Jianwen will surely make Emperor Jianwen happy.
The one who hunted the white deer hard and was willing to give it to himself was none other than Xie Mingxi.
The Sixth Princess felt happy in her heart, but did not show it on her face: "Okay, I understand. There is no need to make any announcement about this matter."
The guards were ordered to retreat.
…
On the first day of spring hunting, everyone came to enjoy the event and returned satisfied.
According to the custom of spring hunting, there will be a banquet in the palace in the evening.
The food served at the banquet was the prey caught in the spring hunting that day. The more than a thousand royal forest guards accompanying them were also able to enjoy the feast tonight. Various wild animals roasted by the royal chefs were delivered to the guards.
Before the banquet started, hand-picked prey became the best opportunity for the princes to compete. According to the practice in previous years, the prince who hunted the most would be able to stay with Emperor Jianwen for the next few days. This said to the princes, since
This is the best opportunity to compete for favor.
In previous years, it was mostly the fourth prince who stole the show.
The fourth prince also worked hard this year and hunted a lot of prey. He stood beside Emperor Jianwen with confidence in his mind.
Emperor Jianwen also gained a lot today. He was quite happy that his sword was still young. He turned to the fourth prince and smiled: "How was your gain today?"
The fourth prince responded confidently and calmly: "Father will know when the guards count the number of prey."
Emperor Jianwen laughed: "Okay! Okay! I'll wait and see!"
The third prince was filled with jealousy.
However, his skills are the weakest among the princes, and he cannot take advantage of others when hunting. He only hunted a few birds, hares, pheasants and the like today, and he is really ashamed to mention it...
The fourth prince looked over with a hint of sarcasm: "Brother Third Emperor, how did you gain today?"
The third prince responded with a smile, "How can I compare to the fourth prince brother?"
The fourth prince raised his lips.
The third prince continued to smile.
The fifth prince looked over again and said in a cheerful tone: "What are the two royal brothers talking about that makes you so happy?"
The third prince and the fourth prince laughed together.
Which eye sees us happy? The eye must be on the back of the head!
Emperor Jianwen ignored the princes' quarrels, turned his head to the other side, and asked Princess Changping first: "Changping, have you gained anything today?"
Princess Changping raised her eyebrows and said with a smile: "Father, you will know later."
Emperor Jianwen asked the sixth princess again: "Anping, what about you?"
The Sixth Princess raised their eyebrows together: "Father, you will know later."
Emperor Jianwen was so amused that he burst out laughing.
…
After lighting the incense, Eunuch Lu sent a list of prey.
Emperor Jianwen took the order and looked through it with great interest.
The princes seemed to be calm, but in fact they were paying close attention to Emperor Jianwen's reaction. They fully hoped that they could get Emperor Jianwen's approval and praise.
Emperor Jianwen didn't know where he saw it, his eyes suddenly flashed with light, and he said three good words in succession.
His father must praise him!
The fourth prince showed a proud smile on his lips, silently thinking about how he should humble himself after Emperor Jianwen praised him...
"Anping! Today's hunting, you should be number one!" Emperor Jianwen laughed loudly and said: "Okay! You are worthy of being my good daughter, and worthy of being the princess of Daqi!"
The Sixth Princess smiled slightly and calmly handed over her hands: "Thank you very much, Father, for the compliment!"
The princes: "..."
The fourth prince couldn't believe it, and the third prince and fifth prince also looked shocked.
Princess Changping raised her eyebrows in surprise: "What do you mean, father, the one who hunted the most today is the Sixth Emperor's sister?"
Emperor Jianwen smiled happily: "Exactly."
He casually gave the list of prey in his hand to Princess Changping.
Princess Changping took a look, and when she saw the long list of prey after the Sixth Princess's name, she was also shocked. After a while, she said: "I didn't expect that the Sixth Princess is so good at hunting!"
Then, Princess Changping exclaimed again: "Sixth Emperor Sister actually hunted a white deer! Father, a white deer is a great good omen!"
