Chapter 244: Accompanying List
The spring banquet in the palace ended like this, a hasty and regrettable dinner, and after that it was the spring hunt, because the folk customs of Yan were open, women could also participate in the spring hunt, so the spring hunt has always been the harem concubines can also participate, although they may not all be able to ride horses and shoot arrows, but being able to follow the emperor is also a symbol of honor for them.

However, the list of spring hunting has always been drawn up by the queen, and at this time, Song Yuanxuan was talking to Qi Yuan about it.
"Your Majesty, this is the list of people who will accompany you this time, you can see if it is pleasing to your heart." Song Yuanyu arrived at a piece of tissue paper, on which were written the names of several harem concubines.
Qi Yuan took it and took a look, there was still a little doubt in his eyes, he really didn't understand what Song Yuanyu's list was based on.
As the queen, Song Yuanxin naturally needs to take care of the harem, so naturally she doesn't go, and the two queen mothers usually don't knock on this spring hunt, but Song Yuanxing's list is actually all those low-ranking concubines who have been in the palace for two or three years, and there is not a single one of those high-ranking ones, Qi Yuan really doesn't know what Song Yuanyuan means.
"The concubine thought that none of these sisters had been there, so she wanted them to follow her and have a long experience, and besides, they were young and naturally more energetic." Song Yuanyu opened his mouth and said.
Song Yuanxing's list can make a lot of trouble, she specially selected those young and beautiful palace concubines, and asked them to go out with Qi Yuan this time, so maybe who can get into Qi Yuan's eyes, and these people are not very powerful in the family, and it is good for her to control them, and they can also carry out other plans in the future.
As for those high-ranking concubines, especially Yang Yueshu and Song Weining, the former Song Yuanxin didn't want her to still occupy Qi Yuan's attention, and the latter was because Song Yuanxin didn't want to give her this opportunity.
"I don't have any of these people with me." Qi Yuan didn't want to give Song Yuanxuan this face, so he directly slapped the piece of paper on the table and made a loud noise.
Song Yuanxin was taken aback and hurriedly pleaded guilty.
"You don't have to worry about the list of people who go to spring hunting, I'll do it myself." Qi Yuan said.
Song Yuanxin pursed his lips but still didn't want to give up: "Your Majesty ......"
"If you, the queen, don't care if you don't understand my thoughts." Qi Yuan said this, and then asked the palace maid to wait for him, took off his robe and lay on the bed.
Song Yuanxin felt that Qi Yuan seemed to be angry, although she didn't understand why such a list could make him so angry, but now Song Yuanyuan really didn't dare to speak, so she could only lie quietly on Qi Yuan's side.
Although the two people have the name of husband and wife, the love between husband and wife is long gone, and the huge gap in the middle makes people feel cold.
The list of spring hunts the next day was decided by Qi Yuan himself, Yang Yueshu was naturally the first to go, and then there were Concubine Xian and Concubine Wan, and Zhen Jieyu and Ning Chang were there, and they also allowed the three princes to follow, since the eldest prince was also going, then the eldest prince's biological mother, Qing Concubine, naturally added it.
"The person chosen by the emperor is really interesting." Yang Yueshu said with a smile.
Concubine Xian and Concubine Wan are incompatible now, and they don't know what they will do when they get to the hunting ground, but the two of them are fighting each other, I'm afraid they don't have the heart to care about anything else, and then Ning Chang is probably for some compensation for her at the previous Spring Festival banquet, and Concubine Qing only went to take care of the eldest prince. And Zhen Jieyu, Yang Yueshu also knows why, Zhen Jieyu should be the best at riding horses in the harem, so she is naturally indispensable for spring hunting.
"But I don't know how to ride a horse......" Qing Shao couldn't help but sigh, and there was some loss in his tone. Qi Yuan had told her before that he would take her to spring hunting, and she was very happy at the time, but she really didn't know how to ride a horse, let alone a bow and arrow.
Yang Yueshu looked at Qing Shao's appearance and smiled, and then said, "Come on, don't worry, Your Majesty still wishes you wouldn't." ”
"Huh?" Qing Shao was slightly stunned, obviously not reacting.
Qiaoyan next to him heard the meaning of Yang Yueshu's words, and couldn't help but smile, and agreed with Yang Yueshu's thoughts, Your Majesty must wish that Qing Shao would not know anything, so that he could teach Qing Shao hand in hand.
However, Qing Shao obviously didn't think of this, so he could only look at Yang Yueshu inexplicably, and the latter obviously didn't want to explain.
"Alright, go pack your bags, and we'll leave tomorrow." Yang Yueshu couldn't help but smile when she saw that Qing Shao seemed to be thinking about something, and then asked her to quickly pack up the things she needed to use.
The royal hunting ground is located in a forest west of the imperial city, which is located between mountains and rocks, there are clear streams and lakes, the natural conditions are very good, there is a well-built palace, each spring hunt will stay there for about five days, so there are a lot of things that need to be used.
Qingshao himself didn't have anything to clean up, but he Qiaoyan hurriedly went to pack the things that Yang Yueshu wanted to use, and then filled three large boxes, clothes, shoes, hats, rouge and gouache, and some miscellaneous items. After that, Qing Shao and Qiao Yan packed the clothes and things they needed for the two of them into a big box.
Later in the day, a eunuch came and removed several boxes, which had to be loaded into the carriage in advance today, in case the departure tomorrow would be delayed.
For this spring hunt, in fact, the happiest person is still Ning Changzai, although the previous dinner did not get the emperor's attention, but she felt that the emperor could personally order her to go with her this time, which shows that she did not dance in vain that day, otherwise the emperor would not think of her.
"Be sure to prepare more clothes, the ones that look good, but also prepare two riding clothes." Ning Chang instructed the palace maid.
Ning Changzai is good at riding horses, although it is not very good, but it should not be too bad, so this time she must perform better, even if she can't get the same favor as Concubine Yi and Concubine Yue, as long as the emperor can think of her from time to time, she really doesn't want to live alone in the harem, the kind that doesn't have any hope.
"Don't worry, master, the slave and maid will clean it up." The palace maid hurriedly answered, and then hurried to pack the clothes and various things for daily use.
Chang Zai only had two palace maids according to the convention, so it was still a little slow for the two of them to pack their luggage, and it took more than half an hour to pack up, and the three mahogany boxes were full, and then they were hurriedly handed over to the eunuch who came to pick up things.
Ning Changzai nodded with satisfaction, that's good, this time she must seize the opportunity, even if she can be promoted, it's good.
You must work hard to get the emperor's favor! (To be continued.) )
