Concubine's Survival Handbook

Chapter 256 Preparing for Autumn Hunting
Now it is mid-October, and in late autumn, it is the season of autumn hunting.

After the emperor heard about Lan Yao being sent back to his hometown, the suspicion in his heart disappeared with Lan Yao's departure.The emperor naturally knew that Duke Fu sent Lan Yao back to his hometown in order to show his loyalty to him, saying that the rumors were completely groundless.

He actually knew Duke Fu's loyalty.Fu Guogong is an old minister who has devoted himself to Zhao Guo, so his loyalty is naturally unquestionable.

Thinking of the rumors circulating among court ministers, the emperor squinted. It has been a long time since Chen Zhi came to Zhao.He took this opportunity to put Chen Zhi under house arrest in the palace just to supervise him from time to time.In the past two years, the relationship between Zhao Guo and Qi Guo has become worse and worse. On the surface, they are still peaceful, but secretly they have fought several times.

Chen Zhi is the son of Emperor Qi, as long as Chen Zhi is still in Zhao, even if Qi's emperor wants to do something to Zhao, he will have concerns and dare not do it lightly.

He put down the memorial in his hand and waved to his father-in-law who was waiting at the side.

When the father-in-law saw it, he immediately stepped forward, "What is the emperor's order?"

The emperor pressed the corners of his eyes, "It's already October now." He asked.

The father-in-law has been serving the emperor for a long time, so he is naturally a fine person, and he has a thorough understanding of every word and deed of the emperor.Now the emperor only asked about the month, and he answered the question very smartly: "If you come back to the emperor, it will already be mid-October. At this time in previous years, you would invite the royal family and nobles to hunt in autumn."

The emperor nodded, "Then you can make arrangements."

"Cha." The father-in-law slowly withdrew.

Every autumn hunting, the emperor would invite some ministers, officials and princes to the hunting ground for autumn hunting, and this year is no exception.

Now that the emperor's order came down, all the people in charge began to prepare.During the autumn hunting, the horses ridden by the various officials and princes must be carefully selected, and spare bows and arrows must be prepared one by one.

Xiao Yuan was depressed all day long because of Lan Yao's departure, and she didn't even go to the Prime Minister's Mansion.Xiao Lin saw it, and knew that Xiao Yuan was not willing to part with Lan Yao, but she had already left, so there was nothing she could do.Thinking of the news that just came from the palace, Xiao Lin came to Xiao Yuan's yard to ask her if she wanted to go, and if she wanted to, he would naturally bring her along.

"No." Xiao Yuan refused directly after hearing this, "I'm in a bad mood these days, and I don't want to go." She didn't even look at Xiao Lin, and continued to play with the flowers in the potted plants.

Xiao Lin's expression changed slightly, "Since you are in a bad mood, you should go out more."

"There are too many things to pay attention to when you go to the autumn hunting. Although your sister and I are good at riding horses, if we make a fool of ourselves at that time, wouldn't we lose face to the general's house?" Xiao Yuan took over the maid Sui Xidi. With the scissors, carefully cut off some of the dead branches and leaves on it.

She will not tell her brother what she really thinks in her heart.Xiao Yuan tilted her head and pretended to look at the flowers intently, but she was muttering in her heart, if Qiu Lie said that Doctor Yushi would definitely come, what if Yang Qin also followed?She never did things in her head, what if she couldn't hold back and went to Yang Qin to pick things up?That would cause trouble.

Although Xiao Yuan knew that someone had spread the rumors under the guise of Dr. Yushi, she still felt that it was because of Yang Qin and Dr. Yushi that Yaoyao had no choice but to leave the capital to part with them.So naturally I hated this father and daughter very much.

Xiao Lin raised her eyebrows, her younger sister has become quite obedient now.It's all thanks to Jing Ning.Near Zhuzhechi.

"Okay, since you don't want to go, then I won't force you." Xiao Lin thought for a while, and then said, "Since you don't want to go to autumn hunting, then you have time. I see you are so boring, how many days have you been?" Let's run to Jingning."

Xiao Yuan moved her hand, and a flower that was in full bloom fell on the soil.The corner of her mouth twitched, thinking to herself angrily, why is she bored, huh?She is obviously very busy, although she is just busy.

Xiao Lin doesn't care about Xiao Yuan's mood now, she must be saying in her heart that she has a wife and forgot about her sister.Xiao Lin frowned slightly, the relationship between Jing Ning and Lan Yao is also very good, now that Lan Yao has left, Jing Ning is also very sad in her heart.Let the girl Xiao Yuan go to her side to run more, or walk around.

Xiao Yuan knew that Xiao Lin was worried about Jing Ning, and she and Jing Ning hadn't seen each other for a few days after returning home after seeing off Yaoyao that day, so she didn't know if Jing Ning was also worried about Yaoyao.

"Okay, okay, I'll go." Xiao Yuan held the flower that she accidentally cut off in her hands with distress, and stretched it out in front of Xiao Lin in anger, "Brother, you pay me for my chrysanthemum." This is Jing Ning The ink chrysanthemum that was given to her was very precious.

Xiao Lin lowered his eyes faintly, "It's just a flower, I will pay for it."

"It was given to me by Jingning!" Xiao Yuan emphasized angrily.

When he heard that it was from Jing Ning, Xiao Lin's eyes flickered, his expression remained unchanged, and his tone was calm, "I'll ask the butler to find you another pot of chrysanthemums like this, okay?"

Xiao Yuan was a little surprised, why is her elder brother so talkative today, it wasn't like this before.Before she could figure it out, Xiao Lin said again: "Since you have a new potted plant soon, I'll take this away."

Xiao Yuan was stunned for a moment, then gritted her teeth after recovering, "No." She just said, Xiao Lin was not so kind, the co-author wanted to take it to Jing Ning as soon as he heard that it was sent by him, no!

Xiao Lin coughed lightly, although he felt a little embarrassed, but he was thick-skinned, so he didn't care about the embarrassment, "You already have one, so don't be so greedy. And you cut off this chrysanthemum It’s gone, and I’m not mad at you to blame you.” Xiao Lin looked at the flower branch falling in the sky, feeling a little unhappy in her heart, when will this girl, A Yuan, be careless.

Xiao Yuan was so angry that she wanted to vomit blood, did she blame herself for cutting off the flowers?It's not that the person talking on the side disturbed me, so that I cut it off with a shake of my hand.You are the culprit and you have the nerve to say her?
Xiao Lin didn't care whether Xiao Yuan wanted it or not, but when he thought that there were only two chrysanthemums left, he felt very uncomfortable, so he asked the boy beside him to move the flowerpot.

The servant came over to remove the flower pot, Xiao Yuan stretched out her hand to stop it, but Xiao Lin gave her a stare, very unwilling to watch Xiao Lin grab the things in front of her in an open and honest manner.

"Okay, I'll ask the housekeeper to bring you a new pot later... Moju, this is it." Xiao Lin said, "Remember to accompany Jingning." After speaking, Xiao Lin left Xiao Lin in a good mood. Kita's yard.

"Miss..." Sui Xi carefully observed the expression on her own lady's face, not daring to go forward.

"Prepare the car, Miss Ben is going to the Prime Minister's Mansion." Xiao Yuan gritted her teeth, she had to go to Jing Ning to sue you fiercely, who told you to bully me and rob me.

Sui Xi responded and hurriedly went out to ask someone to prepare the car. The young lady's expression was terrified, and she began to worry about the young master.
