Chapter 9: The Favored Princess vs the Young General
Zhao Yueze rode a horse and led Fan Yue to a relatively stable mountain range: "This place is relatively open, and there are generally no animals appearing, so you stay here." β
"What about you?" Fan Yue asked him.
"Come back from hunting something for you, at least it won't be too ugly at the end." Zhao Yueze said as he reached out to take the arrow in Fan Yue's quiver.
Seeing him like this, Fan Yue hurriedly reached out and pressed Zhao Yueze's hand that was already on his quiver: "No, I can do it myself, don't leave me alone, I won't make a mess." β
Listening to her words, he hesitated again and again: "I'm going to this forest hinterland, which is very dangerous, and if an accident happens, I won't be able to protect you." β
"So what, when it's dangerous, I'll hide or run away, brother, don't worry, I really won't trouble you." She discussed with him with good words, for fear that Zhao Yueze would reject her.
Seeing her pitiful eyes, Zhao Yueze compromised: "Then you must follow me every step of the way, if there is any accident, you must go first." β
Fan Yue nodded, riding her little red horse and following Zhao Yueze.
Along the way, she saw a lot of pheasants and rabbits, and she even saw the less common fawn.
Then she couldn't help but sigh that Zhao Yueze was right, even the deer could see this place, and she might encounter some behemoth for a while, if there was an accident, she must run first, and if she didn't run, she would become a burden to him.
As soon as she finished sighing, she saw Zhao Yueze stop and pull the bow into the distance, she looked at the thing that Zhao Yueze was aiming at, and she couldn't see it clearly, until the thing was hit by an arrow, and rushed towards them like crazy.
Is it a wild boar, or a particularly large wild boar, the momentum it rushed over seemed to be able to kill two cows, Fan Yue would have forgotten that there was an accident she had just thought she ran away first, and now she was stunned waiting to be hit.
Zhao Yueze saw her naΓ―ve appearance, so he could only jump up and send her to the nearest branch, and then stand next to her and draw a bow and shoot arrows.
Fan Yue knew that he was powerful, but she never thought that he would be so powerful, and he would kill the wild boar with one arrow.
After Zhao Yueze took her down from the treetops, she went to see the death of the wild boar out of curiosity, and could only see that the tail of Zhao Yueze's arrow was still leaking outside the boar's head, and the rest was all nailed into its head.
Fan Yue shook Zhao Yueze's arm and said, "It's really a god, brother, how can you be so powerful, I think you are even more powerful than those generals in the court." β
How could Zhao Yueze not know that she was deliberately holding herself, he reddened his ears, reached out and touched the top of her head: "Good, this is for you, if nothing else, you will get the first prize." β
"Brother doesn't need it, the first gift is the mother's bracelet, you take it, if you fall in love with any woman in the future, you will give it to her, this is something that can only be obtained with great difficulty."
Seeing that Fan Yue said these words generously, Zhao Yueze just smiled bitterly and nodded, according to her age, she should have been married to someone outside a long time ago, but this royal family raised her so well that it is still unknown about men and women.
On the way back, Zhao Yueze hunted an eagle for Fan Yue again, it was not that Fan Yue didn't want to hunt by herself, but she found that she couldn't aim at the moving target after shooting a few arrows.
simply didn't shirk it, and directly took the eagle that Zhao Yueze hunted for her, after all, she would be laughed at by others if she went back empty-handed.
When she arrived at the paddock, Fan Yue took a general look, and the common birds and pheasants and hares that everyone hunted back were usually some common birds, pheasants and hares, and she also had a bottom in her heart after seeing these.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Yueze won the first prize, and Fan Yue laughed at him when she saw him carefully stuffing the brocade box into his sleeve.
Unexpectedly, Fan Yue herself won the third, she was confused about this ranking, she only knew that the eagle that Zhao Yueze hunted for her was a rare thing, and it was taken out, and she didn't know that the things that several other people hunted for her were also good, so Fan Yue looked at Zhao Yueze gratefully, and kept talking about how powerful he was.
Xu Zhuoyan touched the position of his heart when he saw such a false feeling: "I am so heartbroken when you are like this, I also hunted good things for you, why don't you praise me?" β
"You're ugly!"
Fan Yue's words naturally attracted a burst of laughter, but Xu Zhuoyan was angry with Fan Yue, he knew it now, and in front of Fan Yue in the future, he must not owe it.
