Chapter 609: Justified
Princess Yayang slowly braided a braid, put it on her shoulders, and tied it with a hairband, and did not wear other decorations.
In the past royal hunts, Princess Yayang and Qin Xuerou naturally participated.
But their riding costumes are very cumbersome, beautiful and beautiful, but they lack some fun in the competition.
And those riding clothes will only be worn the first time, and the next year you can't wear the same again, otherwise they will be laughed at by others.
When the princes and nobles hunt, there will be royal troops to escort them, and they will also bring their respective guards and maidservants, not so much to hunt, but to compete for beauty, and by the way, go on a blind date.
The gorgeousness of the riding costume, the variety of accessories, the latest makeup......
Princess Yayang shook her head gently, laughed lowly, looked at herself in the bronze mirror, and then turned her head to look at her two friends, and felt more and more that it was right to come to Nanshan Village this time.
can finally get rid of everything that represents identity but is also a burden, she is just her, not Princess Yayang who lives in the eyes of others.
"You don't have to compete with others, but between the three of us, we have to have a game." Princess Yayang touched her wrist, which was already good, "But Xue Rou's riding and archery skills are good, let us have some, at least half of your prey can't be counted." ”
"No problem." Qin Xuerou patted her chest, with a steady winning attitude.
"Ling'er is not allowed to find a helper, otherwise there is a cousin, even if Xuerou and I combined, we will not be able to win you." Princess Yayang looked at Bai Ling, shook her arm, and said, "I'm a disabled person, you have to let me do it, yes or no?" ”
Bai Ling looked at Princess Yayang speechlessly, but he was speechless, who made the family really an injured person in recovery.
The annual hunting tournament is also one of the entertainments of the villagers.
They take turns gathering in each village every year, and they also choose the hills near the village for hunting.
This is also for the sake of fairness, after all, on the hill of your own village, most people are familiar with the terrain and have a better chance of winning.
On the other hand, it is also to avoid the extinction of wild meat, so that the wild meat has a chance to recuperate, and also to avoid some wild animals from breeding too much, thus threatening the village.
"Why are there so many people? We're not going to be late, are we? Seeing the black head in the distance, Qin Xuerou asked excitedly and loudly.
"It's only going to start when it's time to get it, and now it's just a gathering." Bai Ling moved the bow on her shoulder, it was the first time she participated in the competition, and she didn't know that there would be so many people participating.
"The villages learned that the Bai family would also participate in the competition, and the nobles from the capital took out the lottery first-class, and the number of people who signed up was more than half of that in previous years." Liu Xudong explained on the side.
"Oh." Bai Ling knew that it was because of them that the co-authorship would stimulate the enthusiasm of the villagers.
"Look, the one over there who wears the same clothes as us is the villager of Nanshan Village, right?" Qin Xuerou waved her arms and greeted the villagers.
"The ones with red strips of cloth tied around their arms are the students of the academy, and they form a team of their own, regardless of where they are. Those who tie purple strips of cloth are the villagers of this village. Liu Xuyang explained.
"Are the students' grades counted?" Princess Yayang asked curiously.
"Because the Bai family has a lot of funds, and there are children from various villages among the students, what everyone means is that the academy can form a team alone and compete with everyone." Speaking of this, Liu Xudong patted his chest and said: "Today, our brothers are all representing Nanshan Village, after entering the mountain for a while, you have to follow closely, we will protect you." ”
As soon as Princess Yayang wanted to respond, she heard Qin Xuerou speak: "Don't be with you, there are so many people, and you can't scare all the prey away." Besides, you're going to have a game, follow us, and if the village loses, you can't say anything.
It's better for us to separate when we enter the mountain, with me and the son of the world, our safety is absolutely fine. ”
Princess Yayang glanced at Qin Xuerou helplessly, and had no choice but to say softly: "What Xuerou said makes sense, we are indeed not suitable to be with you." Since you are competing, put all your energy into the competition. A few of us, we also have our own small events. ”
"Then be careful." Liu Xudong looked at Princess Yayang's hand uneasily.
Princess Yayang's smile froze, and she said a little unnaturally: "I have also learned kung fu, as long as I don't encounter fierce beasts, it's no problem to protect myself." ”
"But your hand is ......" Liu Xudong still looked uneasy.
Bai Ling looked at Liu Xudong, who didn't understand a woman's heart, and really wanted to hit him on the head so that he wouldn't continue to talk about Princess Yayang's injured hand.
It is understandable that any woman, in front of the man she likes, wants to show her perfect side.
It was Qin Xuerou who directly stepped forward to separate Liu Xudong, and said unhappily: "I said that you have a problem with your brain?" Yayang said that he could protect himself, and that was true. Now your task is to go to the competition and don't hold Nanshan Village back. Don't forget, although Yayang was injured, he still saved you. Really go together, who protects whom is not certain. ”
Qin Xuerou's words embarrassed Liu Xudong, but he forgot about it.
Princess Yayang tugged on Qin Xuerou's sleeve and told her to stop talking, and said gently: "Go quickly, wait for the good news of your victory, maybe you can meet it on the mountain." ”
Bai Ling and Shangguan Yu deliberately walked behind, seeing Princess Yayang defending Liu Xudong like this, Bai Ling couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "Everyone's experience is really indescribable. I really don't know how Yayang could take a fancy to my cousin instead of my cousin? ”
The brothers of the Liu family look very similar, and if they say that they are twins, they will be believed.
It's just that the temperaments of these two people are very different, Liu Xuyang is calm and reliable, and Liu Xudong occasionally commits two.
Most women, if they have to choose a good mate among the two, they must choose Liu Xuyang.
"Maybe it's just the stupidity of him." Shangguan Yu commented unceremoniously, and said meaningfully: "There are too many smart people in the capital, but simple people are rare. ”
Bai Ling had nothing to say, because Shangguan Yu's explanation was very reasonable.
A group of handsome men and women appeared, and the crowd quickly became commotionous.
Many people have seen Bai Ling and Shangguan Yu, so they are more interested in the eldest lady of the Protector General's Mansion and the Miss Biao of the Han Prince's Mansion.
However, the countrymen love to watch the excitement, but they don't dare to cause trouble, so they just pay attention to the salute, or 'whisper' are commented on the young lady from the capital, but no one has a bad idea.
Experiencing such a scene for the first time, Princess Yayang couldn't help but blush.
As a princess, it was the first time that anyone dared to discuss her appearance in person.
Although the rhetoric is not gorgeous, the tone is genuine, and there is no inconsequential thinking.
This feeling...... It's peculiar.
Liu Xudong subconsciously walked in front of Princess Yayang, blocking the gazes with his body, but he was soon pulled away by the young men from the same village to discuss tactics.
"He's very protective of you." Qin Xuerou teased.
Princess Yayang looked up and saw that Liu Xudong was black-faced, and unhappily shook off the person who dragged him.
The eyes collided, and Princess Yayang saw the eagerness in Liu Xudong's eyes, and there was a look that she couldn't say.
"The daughter-in-law of the eldest son of the Liu family, are you laughing at me?" Princess Yayang called Qin Xuerou in the tone of a villager.
No matter how straightforward Qin Xuerou is, this will also make a big red face.
looked at Liu Xuyang, and it happened that Liu Xuyang seemed to sense it, and he also turned his head back to look at her.
Seeing each other, Qin Xuerou only felt her heart beating faster and blushing even more.
"Tsk, pay attention to the image, okay? You are a noble girl from the capital, don't let people think that the daughters in the capital are so unruly. Bai Ling deliberately teased the two, but his voice was extremely low.
