Chapter 259: Scheming
Early in the morning of the second day after arriving at the royal hunting ground, Emperor Qingyuan took his ministers and royal relatives and nobles to the hunting ground to hunt.
"The first day of hunting is not interesting," Tong Lu casually rode on his horse and explained to Fu Yuanyuan, "The hunting ground is huge, and the goal of the first day is to hunt ordinary prey in the near distance, mainly small prey such as pheasants and hares. ”
"If you go deeper, you may be able to hunt bigger prey."
"But it's not enough to see."
Fu Yuanyuan and Chang Xishu were parallel to her, and the three of them slowly walked to the hunting ground with the female dependents.
"Let's warm up today, accompany the queen to fight pheasants and hares, and roast and eat tonight."
Queen Fang Cai ordered a few of them to accompany her, which made many noblewomen and noblewomen cast envious eyes.
Fu Yuan's round jaw responded.
Although she had never participated in the winter hunt, Qin Ze gave her a general description of the process of the past few days last night, and she knew that today was a warm-up for everyone, so she was very relaxed.
Qin Ze's figure on horseback was already far away on the horizon, and he said that he would take her to the depths of the hunting ground tomorrow to hunt together.
At this time, the people staring at Qin Ze's back were not the only ones in Fu Yuanyuan.
Peng Yuemei, who was dressed in a light green riding suit, was heroic, she was riding a white horse, and she was riding faster and faster, as if she was going to chase the team of men in front of her.
Liu Feifei, who was beside her, raised her voice and said, "Yuemei, today is just the first day, there is no need to go deep into the hunting ground." ”
On the first day, it was an unwritten habit for Emperor Qingyuan to lead the men to hunt in person.
Ladies only need to be on the periphery.
Of course, it is not unavoidable if a woman insists on going into the woods to hunt, but very few do.
Peng Yuemei turned her head and raised a smile: "Feifei, I want to go for a run and see if I can hunt better prey by the way, will you go?" ”
Liu Feifei frowned, she didn't want to run into a stinky sweat, she thought for a moment and shook her head and said, "Then I won't accompany you, you should be careful, don't delay for too long." ”
Peng Yue's eyebrows responded, and a look flashed in her eyes.
She just asked politely, and knew that Liu Feifei would definitely not want to go with her, and she didn't want her to go with her.
Turning around and raising his whip, he followed the figure that was about to disappear into the skyline.
Today, she is bound to win.
Peng Yuemei's direction of riding was not exactly the same as that of the big team, but went farther and deeper around the team.
She had participated in the Winter Hunt twice, and knew very well that there would be no ferocious beasts in the area where it was open on the first day.
It was she who calmly jumped off her horse until there was a place in a dense forest where the horses could no longer move forward.
Patting the horse and letting it go back on its own, Peng Yuemei looked at the dense forest dappled with light and shadow in the sun, gritted her teeth and got in.
After searching the jungle for a while, she found a small hidden clearing where she had to go deep into the jungle.
He took out a small, strangely shaped instrument from his bosom, put it to his mouth, and blew it gently.
It was a strange instrumental sound, a melody that seemed to be out of tune, but there was an inexplicable harmony.
After a while, it attracted three sika deer.
The three sika deer didn't seem to be afraid of her at all, but leaned close to her, leaning on her side and rubbing it.
Peng Yuemei smiled happily, took out a small handful of grass seeds from her arms and fed them to the sika deer, and then she took out a packet of medicinal powder, sprinkled it carefully around the small clearing, and said to herself: "So you don't have to worry about other prey breaking in by mistake." ”
After arranging everything, Peng Yuemei glanced at the big tree on the side and secretly cheered herself up.
"As long as you climb up, you can see Your Highness, and only when you see Your Highness can you attract him."
As the eldest granddaughter of the Marquis of Xuanning, although she has learned to ride and shoot, but in the end, she is a girl, and such a difficult thing as climbing a tree is simply unimaginable in the past.
It's just that she wants to be the prince's side concubine, and she wants to be with the prince.
According to the relationship between the family and the royal family, she will not have the opportunity to marry the prince's mansion anyway, and if she doesn't fight for it herself, there is no possibility of this matter.
Gritting her teeth, Peng Yuemei reached out and grabbed the trunk.
After a lot of effort, when she finally sat down firmly on the tree, Peng Yuemei let out a long breath.
Next, it's a matter of waiting.
She looked up the way she came, but there was still silence and peace as far as the eye could see.
I think the large army is sweeping the prey ahead, and has not yet penetrated into the dense forest.
Looking into the distance next to the trunk of the tree, Peng Yue's eyebrows and a strong and resolute figure appeared again.
When did that figure occupy her thoughts?
Was it when she wrestled at a banquet when she was a child and was ridiculed by everyone, the prince helped her up to help her clean the dust?
Or when he pretended to be a boy and secretly followed his grandfather to participate in the sea rafting, he was shocked by the heroic posture of discussing current affairs with all the students?
She clearly remembers the scene of the unmath students embracing the prince in the Xuehai Boating Palace, which made people excited and worshipped.
At that time, she deeply felt that such a prince was a great blessing.
She deeply believes that under his leadership, the still young students of Xuehai Boating Palace will grow into a forest to support the future of Daqing Kingdom.
She really, really likes him.
Peng Yuemei clasped her hands, closed her eyes, and silently prayed that everything would go well today, so that she could become the crown princess and concubine naturally!
Soon after, people began to walk in the direction of the dense forest.
Peng Yuemei vigilantly hid her body in the branches, observing through the fine leaves.
Until several waves of people passed, they didn't see the appearance of the prince.
She couldn't help but feel anxious in her heart.
If the prince is going in a different direction, how can he be born?
While pondering, I heard footsteps in the distance.
Peng Yuemei looked at it quietly, and she was overjoyed.
It's the crown prince Qin Ze!
He finally showed up!
couldn't help but feel a wild beat in her heart, and Peng Yuemei was so nervous that her hands were trembling slightly.
Seeing Qin Ze's figure getting closer and closer, Peng Yuemei blew the small instrument in his hand again.
The three sika deer eating grass seeds in the small clearing shook their heads, and one of them ran out.
Seeing this, Peng Yuemei put away the small musical instrument, looked at the distance from the ground, closed her eyes and jumped down.
"Ahh
A sharp pain in her ankle made her scream uncontrollably.
Everything went according to her plan, but the pain in her ankle was much worse than expected, and the tears couldn't stop crawling down her face, Peng Yuemei reached out and wiped it, and lowered her head to look at her ankle.
She sprained both of her ankles when they hit the ground.
Raising his eyes and looking outside, he took out a small musical instrument painfully and aggrieved, and blew it in pain.
Why hasn't he come yet?
Didn't you see the sika deer she sent out?
The time of less than a cup of tea seemed to Peng Yuemei longer than an hour, and finally, she heard the sound of her feet stepping on the fallen leaves.
