Chapter 269: Autumn Hunting

Ji Xiaowuyi left, and the Ji family was much quieter.

Mingwei gets up early to go to school every day and goes home at night, and Anfen is a little bored.

Yang Shu didn't find an opportunity to check the file, nor did he find a clue about the private seal.

Jiang Wenfeng was busy with official business, and he didn't have time to go to Santai Academy.

Everything is clueless, and the days are getting more and more boring.

When she entered the academy that day, she said hello lazily and sat down in her place.

Wei Xiaoan and the others were excited and surrounded them.

After the abduction incident, the Wen sisters came back to class, much more low-key than before. And another group of classmates, because of Wei Xiaoan, have a lot of close relationship with her, but they will call her whenever there is something.

"Hey, did you hear that?"

This opening statement indicates that something must have happened.

"How?" Mingwei was not very interested. All she could think about was the identity of the mysterious man.

"Autumn hunting! The Holy Lord made an order yesterday that this year will be autumn hunting! ”

Mingwei lifted her eyelids: "What's the matter with us?" ”

Autumn hunting is a tradition of this dynasty. Emperor Taizu immediately won the world, although he established a country, but the southern Chu has not been destroyed, the northern Hu is uncertain, and the world has not yet been unified. In order to maintain the spirit of war, he was always vigorous, and there was an autumn hunt almost every year during his reign.

It wasn't until the twenty-seventh year of Yuankang that the tragic incident occurred, and the autumn hunt was canceled for the first time.

Later, when I ascended the throne, I held it several times. But later, the finances were tight, and now he is not keen on martial arts, and he has been pushing it for a year, and gradually he has not mentioned it again.

Counting the time, there must have been no autumn hunting for ten years.

This is of course a great joy for the family of military generals. Maybe he will rely on this opportunity to be appreciated and rise to the top.

But what does it have to do with them? Even if he followed his father and brother to the hunting ground, it was nothing more than a lively look.

"That's right, your family is a civil official, so you probably don't care about this." Fang Jinping immediately showed an excited expression, "But this year is different!" I heard that the concubine and the concubine will go, and there are several princes......"

Mingwei listened to this, why was something wrong?

"What's the mystery here? Guifei and Concubine Hui go, does it have anything to do with us? And the prince ......"

Wei Xiaoan patted her head and died in a hurry: "Oh, why are you so unenlightened!" The crown prince is going to set a step-concubine......"

"Well, there are still three princes, and his age is also up!"

"......" Mingwei finally understood, "Are you saying that you want to use this autumn hunt to choose a concubine?" Isn't that a little weird......"

chose the princess, why take advantage of the autumn hunt? Could it be that the princess wants to be able to pull a stone bow and tame a fierce horse? Is this the choice of the princess or a strong woman?

Fang Jinping pushed Wei Xiaoan away: "I'll tell you!" Here's the thing, Concubine Hui is on her birthday, and the saint originally intended to take advantage of Concubine Hui's birthday to invite the princess and concubine to the palace and select carefully. However, when asked, Concubine Hui said that she had never left Beijing since she entered the diving mansion, and she wanted to hold an autumn hunt this year, and she wanted to see it. He also said that the birthday banquet would cost too much, and it would cost a lot of money to prepare for the autumn hunt, so why bother spending more, so he proposed to merge the two into one......

"You know that very well."

Fang Jinping looked proud: "Of course, I'm well-informed!" ”

Mingwei couldn't help but smile. Her family is related to many nobles and is indeed well-informed.

"I think Concubine Hui is a really good idea. Who said hunting was their men's business, we can too! Wei Xiaoan patted his chest, "Like us, we practice riding and shooting every day, which is not necessarily worse than those straw bales." ”

Mingwei thinks so.

The female students of Mingcheng Academy know some riding and archery skills, and no matter how bad they are, they can get on the horse and walk around.

"So, there will be a lot of people going this year?"

Fang Jinping said: "That's right! All officials above the fifth grade can go. Your uncle is from the fourth grade, right? ”

Mingwei nodded.

Fang Jinping smiled: "Then we can all go!" ”

Mingwei is not optimistic: "It is impossible for all officials above the fifth grade to leave Beijing, and the autumn hunt will take at least a few days, who will govern the country when they are gone?" It's going to be a break. ”

Her uncle's honest appearance would definitely be arranged to stay......

Mingwei's words were right, she got out of school and returned to Ji's house, and sure enough, she heard Master Ji and Ji Ling discussing this matter.

Ji Ling looked angry: "Dad, why are you so honest? If someone asks you to take a turn, you will take a turn? Clearly seeing that you get the opportunity to face the saint, he is jealous and deliberately does not let you go. ”

Master Ji looked helpless: "If the sacrificial wine is sent in person, what else can I do?" Besides, I can't pick up my shoulders and can't lift them, so what can I do when I go? ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he was slapped by his wife. Mrs. Ji crossed her waist and said, "You can't do it, your son can do it!" The boss is not you, which of his six arts is not the top? Mounted archery is no problem at all. Wouldn't it be better if you could go, take him with you, and put his name before the saints? He's going to be out next year, and if he makes a good impression, maybe he will be ranked higher in the palace exam......"

Dong secretly gave her mother-in-law a thumbs up.

Right! My father-in-law is too honest! There is nothing else to do with the world, so how can this matter be let go?

was accused by his wife and children, Master Ji couldn't hold it on his face, he had a final kill, and the dead pig was not afraid of boiling water.

"Anyway, I've already agreed to be on duty, what do you want!"

Mrs. Ji was so angry that she wanted to hit him on the head with a pot: "You are just cowardly, you don't dare to show your head in front of the saint, just push the boat down the river!" Old man Ji, let me tell you, you yourself have no interest, and I don't ask for it, marry a chicken and follow the old lady of the chicken! But you can't help but care about your son's future. Even if it weren't for this time, you wouldn't be able to do that in the future! ”

Master Ji held his head and didn't dare to speak.

Mingwei touched her chin and didn't step forward to join in the fun.

My aunt had a point in saying that, maybe she should think of a way?

Still thinking about it, Duofu came over and quietly showed her the whistle in the palm of his hand: "Miss." ”

Mingwei was stunned for a moment and smiled.

Really, if you want to doze off, you will send a pillow.

She whispered, "What about people?" ”

Dover gestured next door.

Mingwei followed her to the ear room next door.

"Why did you come here in broad daylight?" She asked Yang Shu in the ear room.

Yang Shuzheng poured tea into his mouth one by one, as if he was drinking, and when he heard her ask, he stopped his movements and said, "I want you to help me if I have something." ”

Mingwei raised his eyebrows: "What?" ”

Yang Shu pursed his lips, revealing a toothache expression: "You know that the autumn hunt is going to choose the princess, right?" ”

Mingwei nodded.

"What the concubine meant, by the way, my matter has also been decided."

Mingwei continued to nod: "Oh, congratulations." ”

Yang Shu jumped up: "You woman, do you have a heart!" ”

Mingwei blinked: "What are you talking about?" ”

"I ......" Yang Shu was so angry that he was spinning around, and he didn't know how to get angry after deflecting for a long time, so he could only pour himself another cup of tea, "Forget it." ”
