There is also an event after the Mid-Autumn Festival, which is an event belonging to the nobles of Nanyu.

Autumn hunting.

Every year, the third day after the Mid-Autumn Festival is the day of autumn hunting, and the emperor will take the people he should bring to the royal hunting grounds, and then hold hunting competitions.

This time, the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet was lively, but it was only lively for a while, and it was ruined by the affairs of the Fu family.

The ladies of the harem and the ministers of the court can go, and the list of participants in the autumn hunt in this regard is drawn up by Queen Xia, although she hates Princess Yu Guifei and Princess Pingle, but because of their identity and Yu Shangshu, it is impossible for Queen Xia to cross them out of the list. Although Concubine Wang Shu is pregnant with a five-month-old child, as a first-class concubine, she is also qualified to go, so she is also listed.

Xie Fanghua needless to say, this kind of lively place, if you don't add a few strokes to it, it will be a little ordinary, so she is definitely going to go.

In the Jinhua Palace, Qingzhi was preparing clothes for Xie Fanghua, because he was going to the hunting ground tomorrow.

"Won't my grandfather go this time?" Xie Fanghua watched Qingzhi packing up her clothes and sat in front of the bed looking at her.

Qingzhi replied while busy with the work in hand: "Yes, the Prime Minister is old after all, and he can't stand the toss. However, Young Master Xie and Second Miss will go this time. ”

In the past, Chen Zhiyan was often not in the capital, he didn't attend banquets and didn't go to hunting grounds, and Xie Eran didn't know archery or martial arts, and it was in vain to go there, so this was the first time the two of them participated in the autumn hunt.

Xie Fanghua had participated twice in the past, but both times she sat in the tent and chatted with Xie.

Hearing this, she nodded thoughtfully, and couldn't help but quip: "Zhiyu was not in the capital before, so naturally he couldn't participate in the autumn hunt, and the kid didn't participate, and it wasn't entirely because he didn't know martial arts, right?" ”

Qingzhi stopped what she was doing and looked up at Xie Fanghua, "Maybe the little young master participated because the second lady participated." If you want the slave to say, the relationship between the little master and the second lady is very good! And they're suitable, too. With that, she turned to look for the tiara again.

Listening to Qingzhi's words, Xie Fanghua smiled slightly, and involuntarily remembered Murong Jin in his heart.

The people in the Chen Mansion, except for Chen Bozhong, can participate in the autumn hunt, and Murong Jin, as a general, can naturally go, but the emperor sent him to Mocheng, and he can't go this time.

Thinking of this, Xie Fanghua's smile faded.

I only hope that Murong Jin and Xia Lingsheng can end this war as soon as possible.

Xie Fanghua let out a long breath and stood up to help Qingzhi find some needed supplies.

Chen Zhiyan participated in the autumn hunt for the first time, not to mention how happy she was - she was not in the capital before, and she didn't know if the autumn hunt was fun, when Xie Enran came to tell her the news, Chen Zhiyan's first reaction was to ask him: "What can the autumn hunt do?" ”

Xie Lenran felt funny, "Autumn hunting, autumn hunting, of course hunting in autumn!" ”

"Hunting?" Chen Zhiyi smacked his mouth, "Is it called spring hunting when hunting in spring, and hunting in summer is called summer hunting?" No, why isn't there such an event in the summer? ”

Faced with Chen Zhiyi's question, Xie Enran didn't know how to answer her for a while, so he said: "You can't ask me this question, the predecessors have always been the only one who says autumn hunting." Then let me ask you, why are you called Chen Zhiyi? ”

"My dad got me a name." Chen Zhiyi shrugged his shoulders.

She felt that this name was quite awkward, and then looked at Xie Fanghua's name, Fanghua Fanghua, a lifetime of elegance, she knew it was very poetic when she heard it, Chen Zhiyi felt that she had a particularly eccentric father, and she was eccentric in choosing a name.

But then again, Chen Zhiyi still likes her unique name.

Chen Bozhong once told her that the Xie family liked gardenias, so Chen Bozhong gave his second daughter this name.

You know my gardenia, but you know it.

It's that you know what I like gardenias.

Chen Zhiyi felt that she had the least status in the family, and even her father had to choose a name for her depending on her mother's hobbies.

Chen Zhiyi doesn't like gardenias.

In fact, she doesn't like any flowers.

"By the way, your father gave you this name, do you know why? Don't know, right? So ......"

Before Xie Enran's words fell, Chen Zhiyan waved his hand in front of him and said, "I know why I call Zhiyi, because my mother likes gardenias......"

Xie Eran was speechless for a while.

His name was chosen by his father casually, and he wanted to say the meaning...... Well, it was said by an old fortune teller, the old gentleman said that he lacked fire in the five elements, so he had the word 'ene', as for that ran, it was originally going to be called 'burning', but Prime Minister Xie felt that he really wanted to take the name like this, and it sounded too hot, so he removed the word fire.

"We're leaving tomorrow, have you packed your things?" Chen Zhiyi didn't know why he suddenly pulled the name up, so he patted his head and pulled the topic back.

Xie Eran nodded, "It's been prepared for a long time." Let's go together tomorrow, and the old man of my house isn't going to go anyway. ”

Chen Zhiyi snorted, "When the time comes, we will go to roast the rabbit to eat, the lotus leaves have the fragrance of lotus leaves, and the osmanthus also has a faint floral fragrance, why don't we try other condiments this time?" ”

Xie Eran raised his forehead, "Why didn't I find out that you were so edible before?" ”

Chen Zhiyi smiled stupidly at the thought of roasting rabbits. She actually doesn't like to eat, and she can't eat very much, she just likes Xie Enran's roast rabbit, if she can, she really wants to eat it every day, and then there is Murong Jin's grilled fish......

Wow, it's a delicacy in the world.

Chen Zhiyi smirked, and his saliva was about to flow out.

"What do you want?" Xie Eran slapped her on the head.

Chen Zhiyi's body jumped, "What are you doing!" ”

Xie Ran glared at her, "Saliva." ”

Chen Zhiyi looked at him and reached out to touch his mouth.

Huh? It seems that there really is.

Chen Zhiyi glared back, and wiped his saliva with his hands, but suddenly reacted that something was wrong, and ran to wash it with warm water poured on his hands in the teapot.

Looking at Chen Zhiyan's frizzy appearance, a smile appeared on the corner of Xie Enran's mouth.

He just likes such a naughty and cute Chen Zhiyi.

Sometimes Xie Eran wonders, if he hadn't agreed to Xie Fanghua's proposal, would he have been able to follow Chen Zhiyan to the rivers and lakes? Can you not be frightened every step of the way in this treacherous capital?

It's just a pity that there are no ifs in the world. Heaven can make him regret it, but it can't make him change what happened before.

The next day, the vast crowd of chariots and horses left the capital and headed for the royal hunting grounds.

Chen Zhiyan and Xie Shi sat in the carriage, and Xie Enran ran ran to sit outside their carriage and chatted with the coachman driving the carriage. And Xie Fanghua's carriage was the third in front of them.

It takes about a day to go to the royal hunting grounds, and now it has been driving for half a day, and seeing that it is about to be lunchtime, the emperor ordered to rest in place.

Xie Fanghua found Xie Shi, and Chen Zhiyi sat by a stream, holding his cheeks with both hands, and looked at Xie Eran who was fetching water by the stream with a smile.

The water of the stream was very clear, and as soon as Xie Heran stretched out his hand to go down, a few small fish swam away from the cracks in the stones at the bottom of the stream.

Coming to fetch water, Xie Ene gave the water bladder to Chen Zhiyi, "Thirsty, right?" Drink. ”

Chen Zhiyan took the water bladder and drank it, Xie Lenran sat beside her, and then looked back at the cooks who were preparing lunch, "I heard the coachman say that at this speed, you will be able to reach the hunting ground tomorrow." Roast your rabbit when the time comes. ”

As soon as Chen Zhiyan heard this, the water in his mouth puffed out and nodded vigorously at Xie Eran before he could swallow it.

When eating lunch, Xie Fanghua was also there, she looked at Chen Zhiyi and smiled, "It's the first time you have participated in the autumn hunt, don't rely on your martial arts to bully other people's girls for a long time!" ”

Compared with those daughters who don't go out of the door, this autumn hunt is naturally more suitable for Chen Zhiyi. But to put it bluntly, the autumn hunt is also an activity for the girls to carefully choose good Xu, after all, in order to get the first prize to get the emperor's lottery, many young masters with real talents will do their best to show their talents.

If a woman suddenly appeared among those sons, it must be Chen Zhiyu.

Of course, Chen Zhiyi sometimes thinks stupidly, if she is a man, or pretends to be a man to provoke the girls, will those women really take a fancy to her?

It's a lot of fun.

Chen Zhiyi snickered.

But she won't hurt other girls, otherwise the woman's heart is in the bottom of the needle, what if the deceived girl really gets entangled with her for the rest of her life?

Ouch hey......

Thinking of this, Chen Zhiyan couldn't help but wipe his arm.

"Sister, don't worry! I'm not going to bully people. Chen Zhiyi said with a smile.

Xie Fanghua stretched out his hand and gently tapped Chen Zhiyi's head, and said, "Take care of your mother more, don't keep thinking about running around with this kid." The hunting grounds are not as safe as you think. ”

Xie Eran had just sandwiched a piece of stir-fried cabbage, and when he heard Xie Fanghua say this, he spoke before Chen Zhiyi could speak: "Cousin, where do we run around?" As he spoke, he threw the cabbage into his mouth.

This cabbage is very delicious, it looks quite oily, but it is not greasy at all, but a little sweet.

Xie Fanghua sandwiched a fried chicken leg for Xie Shi, then sandwiched cabbage for Chen Zhiyan, and finally sandwiched a cold salad for Xie Enran, "Then you should tell me, Zhiyi rarely stayed in the capital for so long, was it abducted by you to play most of the time?" ”

Xie didn't like meat, so Xie Fanghua sandwiched meat for her. Chen Zhiyi doesn't like to eat vegetables, so Xie Fanghua will serve her vegetables. Xie Eran doesn't like to eat cold dishes, so give him cold dishes.

Xie Fanghua doesn't like them to be picky eaters, which is not good for their health.

"Do I have one?" Xie Eran poked the food in the bowl with his chopsticks and muttered.

"You have," Chen Zhiyi just didn't eat vegetables, "I have been back to the capital for so long, it seems that I have been playing with you......"

"Shut up!"

"What did you say?"

"I was wrong......"

Seeing the two of them bickering was really happy, Xie Fanghua and Xie both laughed.
