After leaving the city gate, they moved some distance to the east, and the procession stopped on the side of a wide road, where many carts and horses were parked at the moment.

The magnates and officials who came to participate in today's spring hunt were all waiting quietly here, and their entourage was also lined up in a neat line, standing behind their respective family masters.

Situ Xi observed, most of them were familiar faces he had seen at the birthday banquet yesterday.

He heard Zhong Lixuan say that this year's spring hunt is actually an event prepared for the Queen Mother's birthday, and being invited to the spring hunt also means that he is eligible to participate in the birthday banquet.

At this time, Zhong Lixuan and Whisper walked down from the sedan chair that Li was riding in and came to Situ Xi's side together.

"Does the eldest lady have something to do?"

Judging from the previous contact with the Li family, she is not a person who likes to shush people, she specially asked Zhong Lisu to talk this time, she should have something to tell her.

"It's not ......" Zhong Lixuan looked at Situ Xi and blinked, and he was a little confused, "The eldest lady knows that Xianggong is going to Linwa City to take up a post, and specially instructed the concubine to take good care of your daily life. ”

Concerned about me? Situ Xi was stunned, but he didn't expect that the Li family was just for such a thing.

"Actually, I'm also worried about this matter, and the lady thinks that if I propose to His Majesty to withdraw the order, will he promise?"

"I'm afraid this can't be done, as long as it is something that His Majesty decides, it seems that it will be implemented in the end. Just like yesterday's birthday banquet, the prime minister may not know that when His Majesty first proposed to hold a birthday banquet, he was strongly opposed by the ministers, and then His Majesty did not mention this matter again for a period of time, and everyone thought that he had dispelled this idea...... But judging from the scale of yesterday's banquet, it was actually a big event, and the invited officials were also present...... Of course, the original proposal of a five-day moratorium and the lifting of the curfew were not implemented. ”

It's like trying out the policy of selling officials...... It's really bent on going its own way.

"Xianggong don't worry about this matter, let it be, this flower dynasty holiday has reached the last day, let's enjoy the joy of spring hunting today." Zhongli squatted down and smoothed the little fox's hair.

"Yes." Speaking of which, today can be regarded as a holiday, Situ Xi stretched his waist.

"Here we are." Zhong Limo poked Situ Xi's back with his finger.

Situ Xi looked into the distance, a team led by a large group of forbidden troops was walking towards them, in the middle of the team, the Chu Emperor rode on a horse, behind him he was wearing a uniform, wearing a hat, and the two accompanying generals around him carried bows and arrows for him.

Everyone bowed their heads on the roadside and looked down at the ground, kneeling and bowing.

This line was very long, and there were many soldiers behind Emperor Chu, but except for Emperor Chu, everyone was on foot.

The accompanying chariots and horses were all pulled by a group of palace servants at the back of the procession, Situ Xi looked up slightly, and suddenly found several four-wheeled carts behind him carrying several iron cages.

Moving his gaze up again, the caged animal surprised Situ Xi slightly.

"Brother-in-law, Your Majesty, these cheetahs are majestic." Zhong Limo whispered in Situ Xi's ear.

After glancing at the leopards in front of him a few times, and then looking down at the little fox next to him who was lying on the ground with his eyes facing him, Situ Xi chose not to answer his question.

Emperor Chu did not stop here, and when the team he led came to the forefront, the hundred officials got up one after another and followed behind him.

After walking for about half an hour, everyone stopped in an open field, where someone had already placed a lot of tables and chairs for people to rest in advance, and several princes had already arrived here, and Situ Xi also saw Chen Zhishu and Chen Pu in the crowd.

"Ladies and gentlemen, today's spring hunt is not set up in the paddock, but selected under the Wenshan Mountain in the wilderness, I have sent people in advance to enclose this ten miles in a radius, today this Wenshan will be used as a temporary paddock, the terrain here is more complicated, and it will be more interesting to think about."

Emperor Chu stood on the top of the stairs and spoke, and everyone instantly fell silent.

"The prey sent into this mountain forest is not a fierce beast, you don't need to worry, just have fun today."

"But although it's mainly for fun, since it's a spring hunt, there must be a lot of people who want to be different from others......"

"I have asked people to place a Lingzhi in each of the two pavilions on the top of the mountain, one is to be fought for by the officials, and the other is handed over to the juniors, and the first to obtain this Lingzhi will be rewarded."

Hearing Emperor Chu's words, some people were eager to try, and some people were embarrassed.

Situ Xi also felt that it was unreasonable, there were only two Lingzhi, didn't that mean that there could only be two winners among so many people involved? And the elders are still separated from the juniors.

He looked at the three royal highnesses standing beside Emperor Chu, could it be that in addition to separating the winners and losers among each other, these three people also had to compete with everyone present?

If this Lingzhi is obtained by others, will these three not have to be the group trainers, and they will definitely not have to be any deputies at that time, this script is good.

"The rest of you don't need to be discouraged, when it's over, I will also give you rewards based on your achievements, specifically, you will understand when you go up the mountain."

"Everyone prepares bows and crossbows, the hundred officials go to the right side with me, and the juniors go up the mountain from the left side in groups of four."

The Emperor of Chu was in high spirits, and his servants led the hound and cheetah for him, and he turned on his horse, waved the reins, and rushed towards the ramp up the hill on the right.

"Wait for the order!"

A group of powerful officials also rode their horses with them, and all rushed up the hill with their retinue and guards actively shouting.

"This is going up?" Situ Xi was speechless for a while when he saw the Chu Emperor and the hundred officials galloping on horseback, they had just arrived, he thought that the Chu Emperor would make a long speech, who knew that these people looked impatient.

"Come to think of it, Your Majesty and these uncles have been looking forward to relaxing and hunting today." Zhong Limo walked to Situ Xi's side with a bow and arrow, "Brother-in-law, without further ado, let's also go." ”
