Chapter 99: Good Danger, Good Risk
Not to mention, these princesses' attendants are quite well prepared, because they know that there is a big lake here, not to mention fishing rods and fishing tackle, and even the net pockets for fishing are two.
Princess Zhiling happened to get up after a short break under the urging of her grandmother at this moment, and when she came out and saw the Fu sisters preparing fishing tools, she couldn't help but be interested, saying that she was going too, and called her friends to accompany her, and found Cui Xiaoyue and Xia Qinglian together, and the five girls gathered together again, and they all rushed to the lake.
On the trestle by the lake, the waitresses have prepared a fishing position for each of them, each of which has a small wooden chair made improvised and a large bucket for fish.
However, fishing is really an activity that requires special patience, suitable for leisurely middle-aged and elderly people, but not for young and lively children.
It was only fresh for a long time, and Princess Zhiling and Cui Xiaoyue, who had nothing to gain because of their inexperience, were the first to lose their patience, and as soon as the fishing rod was thrown, the people ran away.
On the contrary, it was Xia Qinglian, a little girl, who had unexpectedly good patience, humbly learned to fish with Fu Rushuang, and was not afraid of failure to re-bait and fish again and again, and she actually succeeded in catching a small fish.
Although the fish are small, they are quite inspiring, and Xia Qinglian is more interested in fishing!
Thanks to Xia Qinglian, Fu Xuechen had one more person to chat with, so she gritted her teeth and persevered in the defeat after defeat, otherwise according to her temperament, she would have run away long ago.
Unconsciously, Fu Xuechen actually learned some fishing skills and successfully caught three small fish, but unlike Xia Qinglian, she did not feel the joy of harvesting, on the contrary, her heart became more and more anxious, and the afternoon was almost over, where is the golden carp in the lake?
Fu Rushuang is not in a hurry, her harvest is not small, the harvest in the bucket is more than Fu Xuechen and Xia Qinglian combined, although she has never seen any shadow of the golden carp, but she doesn't care.
The sunset was about to set, and the horn suddenly sounded on the side of the imperial tent, and the time was approaching, Emperor Yuan'an was asking people to withdraw their troops and remind the four young princes who participated in the hunting competition that it was time to return.
As long as there is a competition, it will always attract people, and gradually, more and more people gathered around the imperial tent of Emperor Yuan'an, some have just returned from hunting, some have already returned to the camp to rest in advance, and some are purely to accompany the guests and watch the guests who did not go hunting at all, this time they all gathered around, just waiting to see the results of the game.
Emperor Yuan'an's personal guards also prepared the two big scales and placed them in the open space in front of the imperial tent, just waiting for the time to weigh the prey of the four princes separately to determine the winner.
Princess Zhiling and Cui Xiaoyue both arrived very early, obediently crowded not far from Emperor Yuan An, whispering while waiting for the excitement later. Fu Rushuang and Fu Xuechen never caught the golden carp, and finally gave up, let the fish catch be sent back to the princess's camp, and returned to Princess Zhiling with Xia Qinglian.
"Qinglian, Sister Fu, how many fish have you caught?" Princess Zhiling asked curiously.
Xia Qinglian said happily, "Your Highness, I have learned to fish! I've caught five!"
….
"Qinglian has fished more than I have, and I've only caught three." Fu Xuechen smiled: "It's still my sister who is amazing, she caught fifteen, and the size is not small, enough for a few of us to have a grilled fish later!"
"So good! Then I'll have to taste your fish!" Princess Zhiling showed a little envy, she was impatient when she learned to fish, but when she saw that others had gained, she felt remorseful.
Xia Qinglian was ashamed: "The fish I catch are relatively small, but I'm afraid they won't be very delicious."
"It's okay." Fu Rushuang comforted her: "Small fish has a way to eat small fish, which is used to make fish soup, and the fish soup will be particularly delicious."
Princess Zhiling and Cui Xiaoyue both secretly swallowed their saliva, and they were both hungry when Fu Rushuang said it.
At this time, someone next to him shouted, "Look! Someone's back!"
Several girls hurriedly stretched their necks to look, and saw that in the direction of the east, the four princes and their entourage took the lead, and trotted from the edge of the forest, each with several soldiers behind them
Only prey.
Fu Xuechen couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly, in fact, there was still about two or three minutes away from Youshi, and the fourth prince came back early, but thinking about it, it seemed to be his temperament.
"Father! Son-in-law gives orders!" When the four princes arrived at the camp, the first thing they did was to dismount and salute Emperor Yuan'an.
Emperor Yuan An nodded: "Very good! Let them hand over all your prey over there!"
The four princes led the people away, Emperor Yuan An made a gesture, and the rhythm of the drum began to slowly become abrupt, the time was almost up, if he could not return before the hour, every time he was late, the weight of a prey would be subtracted from the results.
Half a minute before the unitary hour, the six princes also returned, and it was visible to the naked eye that there were many more soldiers who followed him and carried the prey for him than the four princes, and they didn't need to weigh them anymore, and they knew that the four princes had lost at a glance.
Ten seconds after the countdown, the Seventh Prince also returned, and his harvest was slightly worse than that of the Fourth Prince.
At the last second, the trumpets and drums stopped, and the five princes and their entourage hurried over from afar, but there was some surprise that his harvest seemed to be similar to that of the six princes, more than the four princes.
Fu Xuechen's eyes widened, he originally thought that the six princes would win steadily, but he never expected that the five princes, who usually had no upper grades and were not very conspicuous, would still be able to explode at this moment? !
Princess Zhiling whispered a few words to Cui Xiaoyue on the other side, then turned back to Fu Xuechen and said, "Sister Fu, at noon, you went to have lunch with my sixth brother."
"Well, what's wrong?" Fu Xuechen remembered that he had told the princess about this matter, and when he heard the princess mention it again at this moment, he couldn't help but be a little puzzled.
Princess Zhiling exclaimed, "I heard that the fifth brother didn't stop at noon, they all gnawed dry food, and they hunted non-stop all day! And the fifth brother found a pair of brothers as assistants, the pair of brothers surnamed Fu, is the grandson of the third-class Rongguo family, and has already served in the forbidden army, very powerful!"
Yes...... Is it so ruthless? Just to compete for the top spot in a hunting competition?
Although Fu Xuechen felt that the prey of the Six Princes still looked like they were going to be a little more, he didn't dare to pack a ticket to think that he would win, after all, it was weighed rather than counted, and it was useless to look at the number.
If only they hadn't disturbed them at noon! Fu Xuechen couldn't help but secretly regret it, but she didn't think that Yu Zuo would invite them to lunch at first, she could only say that things were too coincidental to be predicted.
