He couldn't help walking towards her with a warm smile on his lips.

"It will take a while for the tent to be ready, why don't I take you around first?"

Shangguan Hui was probably in a good mood after seeing the scenery beyond the Great Wall, so she didn't refuse his proposal.

The Royal Enclosures are truly extravagant.There are layers of stone steps on the periphery, and a lush jungle below, which is the paddock.Because members of the royal family and nobles loved to come here to watch and hunt in the past, many watch chairs made of jade were built on the outer stone steps.Looking down the stairs, there are solid protective walls on all sides, probably because they are afraid that jungle beasts will rush out and hurt people.

After wandering around for a short while, the camp tents had been set up when they came back, and the boats and vehicles were exhausted, and all the people of high status went into the tents to rest one after another.Thinking about it, this hunt can only be carried out tomorrow.

Shangguan Hui was resting in the tent for a while, when a woman dressed as a court lady walked in, holding a tray in her hand, on which were several plates of delicate snacks.

"How is Shangguan Xiunu?" The maid greeted first, and then put a few plates of snacks on the table, "Concubine Wu Hui thought the journey was hard, so I named a servant girl to deliver some snacks to Shangguan Xiunu."

"Then I would like to thank you for thinking about it, Madam." Shangguan Hui bent his lips and smiled, but the smile didn't reach his eyes.

When the maid turned to go out, the smile on Shangguan Hui's face disappeared instantly, and she told Qing'er, "Throw it out."

Qing'er was taken aback, "Miss, are you afraid that this snack will be poisoned?"

Shangguanhui hooked her lips speciously, "I'm afraid Concubine Wu Hui doesn't have the guts to poison so blatantly."

"That young lady wants to throw these out..." Qing'er slightly raised and frowned brows with a faint puzzlement.

"Or do you want to take her hypocritical 'charity'?" She looked at Qing'er with crystal clear eyes.

Now Qing'er finally understood what she was thinking, stopped talking, and walked out with the plates of snacks in hand.Not long after, Qing'er came back, but she was holding an exquisitely carved fragrant wood food box in her hand.

"Miss, His Royal Highness King Ye sent you some snacks and fruits."

Qing'er thought to herself, Miss Wu Hui didn't want to eat the stuff, so there must be nothing wrong with what King Ye sent, right?

"Ok!"

Leaning on the soft couch, Shangguan Hui only responded with a hum from his nose, and then fell silent.

Qing'er curled her lips, the young lady didn't let her go, so that's the meaning of staying, right?She opened the food box and was about to take out the snacks inside.At this moment, there was a whoosh, and something flashed past my ear.Qing'er was startled, looked up, and saw a feathered arrow precisely inserted into the top post on one side of the bed curtain.

"Hey, miss, look!"

Qing'er exclaimed.Actually, needless to say, Shangguan Hui had already noticed the feathered arrow that shot in.Slightly frowned, looking at the direction of the feather arrow, it seemed that she didn't want her life.Then there is only one use.

She quickly sat up from the couch, pulled out the feathered arrow, and sure enough, she saw a paper stick on the arrow.Take off the paper sign, there are a few words on it: Urgent, in the woods, see you soon.

Judging from the handwriting, it belongs to Shangguan Wenyong.It's just that he was so anxious to see himself, why?

Shangguan Hui put on a cloak and left the tent.No matter what Shangguan Wenyong's intention of asking her to meet, she must go to the appointment.In other words, he is also a person who is connected by blood and flesh in her life.What's more, Shangguan Wenyong or the entire prime minister's mansion is now where she shares honor and disgrace, and there are many complicated and powerful relationships mixed in it.In short, she had to attend this appointment no matter whether it was public or private.
