princess

Chapter 53

Because although many accidents occurred in the hunting, after it was finalized, it was quickly executed. After the satins were sent to Fengyang Pavilion, Madam Zheng drew up the list according to the grades of each palace. Xiao Yuanmin took a look at it. After that, it was released.

It's just that no matter which palace people came to collect it, they all had to sign it, and the final master list was handed over to the Empress Dowager Xiao Yuanmin, so she didn't care about it anymore.

After Madam Tang remeasured the size, she began to help Xiao Yuanmin prepare new riding and shooting costumes. She chose true red, and the belt was pure black, decorated with a circle of white jade. Emperor Xuanhe even sent someone to send gold Ruby inlaid headband, Xiao Yuanmin's hair was bundled up that day, and the headband sparkled in the sun.

The ones that came out of Xuanhe Emperor's internal warehouse were naturally of good quality, and when paired with the clothes made by Madam Tang and the others, they looked even more noble.

The second prince and the fourth prince rode on both sides of her. Although Xiao Yuzuo didn't come, his companion Murong Xi came. After all, he couldn't rest assured that Xiao Yuanmin was alone in the hunting ground.

Murong Xi followed behind the three of them, but his eyes stayed on Xiao Yuanmin.

Although the princes of the vassal state wondered why the crown prince became the eldest princess, even if they were unhappy about it, they didn’t say much. After all, they all heard about the eldest princess’s favor, and the relationship between the crown prince and the eldest princess made them feel a little bit worried. Those who live in the Tao, not only are not unhappy, but are vying to please, after all, the Jin Dynasty also had a princess and relatives.

It's just that a few of them were extremely displeased, feeling that they were not valued by the Emperor Jin Dynasty, yet a woman came, and the fourth prince was riding on a horse, looking calm.

There is no need for Xiao Yuanmin to speak on the scene. She sat on the horse silently. After the second prince said a few words, he said with a smile, "I won't say much, let's start hunting."

Xiao Yuanmin nodded to the second prince when he heard the words, pulled the rein with one hand, and whipped the whip with the other hand, and the white horse started to run.

Murong Xi followed closely behind, and the rest of them didn't move, they knew some things without saying anything.

The second prince made a gesture, and the guards behind him waved the flag, and the guards hidden in the dark untied the tied deer, and the deer was free, stood up and started running.

Xiao Yuanmin narrowed his eyes, tightened his hand on the rein, the white horse stopped abruptly, and its front legs left the ground. Xiao Yuanmin's legs were sandwiched between the horse's body, and he sat extremely steadily on the horse's back. Looking at the road that fell to the ground, Xiao Yuanmin showed a little smile on his face.

Someone from the kingdom suddenly laughed, "The eldest princess is really heroic, but my younger sister is not. Although she is also a princess, she can only embroider flowers and flutter butterflies."

The second prince's complexion changed slightly, but he didn't say a word, but the fourth prince said, "Changping is the eldest princess of the Jin Dynasty. She is a prince, and ordinary people can't match her."

It's nothing to say at first glance, but when you think about it carefully, it feels a bit wrong. It's just that Xiao Chengde secretly hated Xiao Yuanmin's ruthlessness in the school, which made him lose face in front of Emperor Xuanhe. The palace couldn't lift its head.

Xiao Yuanmin rode his horse back, glanced at Xiao Chengde quietly, then looked at the person who spoke, and said with a soft smile, "I wonder what the tribute from your country is this time?"

The implication is that you need to make an offering to Jin Dynasty. The man's face changed, thinking that he still needs the canonization of Emperor Xuanhe if he wants to ascend the throne, and this eldest princess has always been favored by Emperor Xuanhe. Regretted, he just looked at the second and fourth princes again and he didn't believe that these two were willing to be suppressed by a woman, "There are no treasures, but there are a few good horses and swords that are suitable for several princes."

It was not suitable for Murong Xi to speak at this time, but he just looked at Xiao Yuanmin, he didn't believe that the eldest princess could suffer this loss, and suddenly wondered how the eldest princess would retaliate.

The second prince suddenly laughed out loud, "That's just right, I will definitely go ask my father for a sword, you must know that the sword I got last time was won by my younger sister."

If the prince who belongs to the country wants to provoke, it depends on whether the second prince is willing to accept it. He directly expresses his attitude, which is not as good as Xiao Yuanmin, so don't pull the lead on him.

The fourth prince stroked the rein with his fingers, "Why don't we go hunting first, and talk about it later." He pointed at the deer carried by the guards, "Sister, your prey."

Xiao Yuanmin curled his lips slightly, seeing the fourth prince's careful thought in changing the subject, "Cut the venison leg and sent it to the emperor's grandmother, father and prince." Then he ordered one of the guards, "Let the prince take the roasted venison with his own hands. Send it to the tablet of our mother."

The fourth prince did not say a word, but Xiao Yuanmin would not let him go, "I wonder what the fourth brother thinks about my sister's arrangement?"

"Excellent." The fourth prince smiled slightly with lowered eyes, "My sister is pure and filial."

Murong Xi said with a smile at this time, "Don't worry, the eldest princess, the crown prince also said in advance that he will definitely send a plate to Queen Huiyi, and he also said that he will go with His Majesty."

Xiao Yuanmin nodded, without looking at the princes of the vassal state again, "The hunt begins." The simple four words had a bit of a woman's unique crispness, and he immediately flicked off the whip, and the horse ran inside.

Immediately, Murong Xi clasped his fists and saluted, and followed him in.

The second prince glanced at the fourth prince and the prince who was speaking with a half-smile, "Please."

Although the fourth prince's eyes were a bit gloomy, he nodded without further words, "Princes, let's see who can win the first prize today."

"it is good."

The princes agreed no matter whether they were sincere or not, they just thought about how many animals to hunt, which should not be surpassed or underestimated.

Xiao Yuanmin would be embarrassed today, and Xiao Yuanmin had long thought that not all vassal states were willing to surrender, and many of them surrendered because the Jin Dynasty was too powerful, so they surrendered in order to protect themselves.

It's just that when Xiao Chengde, a good fourth brother, got in touch with those people, although he didn't show it all the time, Xiao Yuanmin noticed the last look that the prince of the subordinate country gave Xiao Chengde.

Murong Xi followed behind Xiao Yuanmin. After reaching the forest, Xiao Yuanmin was not in a hurry to hunt, but found a suitable place to talk, and ordered, "Let the guards check this hunting ground again."

"Yes." Murong Xi also had the same intention, "Do you want to tell the second prince?"

Xiao Yuanmin was a little hesitant, she was surrounded by cronies, she tapped her hands with the whip handle, "What do you think?"

"I think it's better to just say it." Murong Xi said.

Xiao Yuanmin nodded, pointing to a guard, "Go and whisper to the Second Prince and ask him to send someone to strengthen the defense of the hunting ground."

You must know that this hunting was mainly arranged by the second prince and her, if something happened, it would be their responsibility.

It's just that the second prince really didn't participate in it?Xiao Yuanmin didn't dare to be sure, even Murong Xi didn't dare, if the second prince and the fourth prince join forces to drag her into the water, it is not impossible.

"Princess, be careful." Murong Xi said in a low voice.

Xiao Yuanmin nodded, "I don't want the limelight, Murongxi, do you want to fight for it?"

"The crown prince asked Weichen to follow the eldest princess." Murong Xi smiled lightly, "The prey here are not too wild." There was a touch of disdain in his tone.

Xiao Yuanmin pursed her lower lip and nodded, "If there is a chance..." Xiao Yuanmin didn't say anything about the chance, but she also wanted to really go out for a walk. With a wave of her hand, everyone around her retreated. Xiao Yuanmin and Murong Xi got off, "If you have a chance, go and make contributions."

This is not only for the sake of Murong Xi, but also for the sake of Xiao Yuzuo. Xiao Yuzuo now only has the position of crown prince, which is not stable enough. If his people can hold the military power, would Concubine Lin dare to do so?
Does Xiao Chengde still want to fight?In the final analysis, the rights in their hands are not enough.

"Wei Chen understands." This was planned a long time ago. Murong Xi never thought that the first time he heard it from the eldest princess, the sunlight scattered from the gaps in the leaves and fell on Xiao Yuanmin's face, bringing out a little softness. , "What is the eldest princess' plan?"

"Me?" Xiao Yuanmin turned his head to look at Murong Xi, with a puzzled look, "What can I plan?" The smile on the corner of his mouth was slightly bitter, and he pointed to the location of the palace, "My battlefield can only be there , I am also useful in that kind of place, what else can I do?"

In fact, Murong Xi regretted it when she first asked the question. Now that she heard the answer from the eldest princess, she felt a little sore in her heart. If she hadn't been imprisoned, such a woman should have a wider sky to walk around.

"That's fine." The bitterness on Xiao Yuanmin's face seemed to be just Nankey Yimeng, and the smile now was faint, with the dimple looming, "I just want to fulfill my mother's wish."

Let the younger brother ascend the throne, and let those who killed their mother and brother kill their lives.

"Does the eldest princess not have any wish?" Murong Xi asked, pursing her lips.

Xiao Yuanmin lowered his eyes slightly, "If possible, I would like to go out for a walk and look at the wonderful mountains and rivers described in the book."

I don't know why Xiao Yuanmin said so much today, it's okay to just say it, "I think..." Don't wear a mask all the time, you can cry when you are sad, but you can cry louder when you are happy Laugh, you can shut people out when you want to be quiet, you want to read a book, go fishing and enjoy the flowers, keep a few animals by your side, you don’t want to practice martial arts, you don’t want to be competitive in everything, you don’t want to be strong laugh.

"Okay, we don't have to have a single prey, and we have to help my sister catch foxes." Xiao Yuanmin calmed down and said calmly.

"Is there any small animal that the eldest princess wants?" Murong Xi didn't look at Xiao Yuanmin, "I can't do anything else, but I am good at catching prey."

Xiao Yuanmin was stunned for a moment, his heart skipped a beat for some reason, his face turned red, he smiled and said, "I still don't want to raise it anymore."

Don't dare to raise what you like, you can't raise it, and what to do with what you don't like, it's better not to raise anything.

Murong Xi understood Xiao Yuanmin's implied meaning, and it was because he understood that he felt more distressed, and he couldn't help comforting him, "There will be a chance."

"Ah."
