The crying had disappeared, and Nie Zhaoyi also returned to his residence in a bad mood.

Outside the emperor's bedroom, Shi Yu and Jing Heng stood side by side, and when the candles in the hall were lit, the two walked in together.

As soon as he entered, Yu clearly felt that the temperature in the hall seemed to be much lower than outside, and a cold feeling came to his face, coupled with the light flickering candle flame, which added to the darkness in the night.

"It looks like a good place for haunting." Shi Yu sighed and spoke.

The difference in temperature between the inside and outside of the temple could not be so large.

"Your Majesty, don't scare the minions." Xiao Xiazi, who was following Shi Yu, trembled.

Shi Yu glanced at Xiao Xiazi, who was nervous, and then looked at Jing Heng who looked calm beside him.

"Does the Overseer believe in ghosts?"

"I don't believe it." Jing Heng shook his head, and under the reflection of the candle flame, his face looked calm and serious.

Shi Yu smiled, "I thought that the Overseer would say something misty to make it seem more unfathomable. ”

Looking at Shi Yu sideways, Jing Heng's eyes slid a hint of teasing, "Does the emperor know why Weichen doesn't believe in ghosts." ”

"Why?" Shi Yu asked along Jing Heng's words.

Jing Heng had a smile on his face, and he spoke word by word: "Because Weichen has too much blood on his hands, if there are really ghosts in this world, I am afraid that they will all turn into powerful ghosts, roaring day and night, and disturbing Weichen will not be able to live in peace all the time." ”

The smile mixed with the cold tone made Xiao Xiazi tremble again.

Even Chasing Yun couldn't help but change his face, and he looked at his own overseer with mixed feelings.

Only Shi Yu, facing Jing Heng's gaze, his face did not change at all.

"Isn't the emperor afraid?" Jing Heng looked at her quietly.

"I don't believe in ghosts." Shi Yu shook his head.

"What Weichen said is that he is afraid of me."

Shi Yu shook his head again, "Then I'm even more afraid, the overseer is the thigh that I have to try to hold, if the means are not ruthless, I can't protect myself, how can I protect me." ”

After all, if you can climb to this position as a eunuch, how can you have clean hands and not stain blood.

Shi Yu's expression and tone were too calm, Jing Heng was stunned, and suddenly felt for a moment.

It may not be bad to protect such a little emperor.

"Did the Overseer suddenly feel that I was so good that I was going to let me hug my thighs?" Shi Yu was keenly aware of a slight change in Jing Heng's expression.

Jing Heng came back to his senses and looked at Shi Yu's expectant appearance, "The emperor really takes hugging his thighs as his greatest pursuit all the time. ”

"After all, that's my ability to save my life." Shi Yu quickly picked up.

Jing Heng couldn't help laughing, and the cold aura in the hall seemed to fade between words.

Shi Yu and Jing Heng checked it again, and it didn't take long for them to go back to their bedrooms.

For the rest of the night, Shi Yu didn't hear any strange movements.

The next day.

There were rumors of haunting in the hunting palace, and coupled with last night's crying, all of a sudden the rumor of haunting spread among the courtiers.

There are even people who talk about it in private, saying that Jing Heng controls the government, the emperor is cowardly and incompetent, and the talented emperor has appeared.

It's just that such rumors naturally dare not be lifted to the surface, let alone spread into the ears of Jing Heng and Shi Yu.

By the time Shi Yu finished drinking the bland white porridge, left the hunting palace, and arrived outside the mountain forest hunting ground, many people were already ready to go.

One by one, they looked confident, as if they were waiting for an order, and then rushed into the mountains and forests not far away to show their skills.

As soon as Yu stood still, there was a sound of horses' hooves behind him.

A few zhang away, Nie Zhaoyi turned over and dismounted, and walked in front of Shi Yu.

"I don't know if the imperial brother dares to compete with his younger brother?"

Shi Yu glanced at Nie Zhaoyi's robe that was still slightly dewy, "Fifth brother didn't fall asleep all night and ran to ride a horse, right?" ”

"The imperial brother doesn't have to divert the topic, the younger brother really wants to compete with the imperial brother, but I don't know...... Does the royal brother dare? ”

The three words "dare not dare" were full of ridicule by Nie Zhaoyi, and it seemed that Shi Yu would not respond to the battle.

Shi Yu looked at him, the original master had never learned to ride and shoot, and Nie Zhaoyi naturally knew it. I guess it's just a plan to lose her face in public, but ......

"How does the fifth brother want to compare?" Shi Yu asked.

"According to the rules of autumn hunting, hunting for five days from today, in this mountain forest, is limited to two hours a day, and the person who finally hunts the most prey is the winner." Nie Zhaoyi said.

Shi Yu hooked his lips and nodded, "Yes, I compare with you." ”

"Your Majesty, you don't have to think about it anymore!" Xiao Natsuko lowered her voice to dissuade.

The emperor has never learned to ride and shoot at all, and the autumn hunting in previous years has never been played, how can he compare to the five princes.

"Don't worry." Shi Yu shook his head at Xiao Xiazi and said in a loud voice, "A kind person like me will definitely not let the Fifth Prince lose too badly when the time comes!" ”

Xiao Natsuko: "......" Is this what he is worried about?

Nie Zhaoyi didn't expect the other party to agree, and he sneered when he heard this.

Don't let yourself lose too badly? Nie Shiyu is really ashamed!

If he remembered correctly, Nie Shiyu had never learned to ride a horse, let alone archery, on the grounds of his weak health.

"Brother Huang, you have to think clearly, there are no eyes in the mountains and forests, if you accidentally hurt you, it will not be good."

"It's okay, I'm not a calculating person, even if someone really hurts me with an arrow, then ......"

Shi Yu's gaze swept over the people present who were going to participate in the autumn hunt one by one, and continued to speak.

"Just punish the nine clans casually!"

Everyone present: "......" is this still called not careful?

Shi Yu is the emperor after all, she wants to participate, and others will naturally not stop it, not to mention that this matter is obviously provoked by the five princes first.

However, although he didn't stop it, the vast majority of people present didn't think that the emperor could really win over the five princes.

With the sound of a gong, the autumn hunt officially began, and many people rode into the mountains and forests.

Nie Zhaoyi threw Shi Yu a contemptuous look, and then rode after him.

Xiao Xiazi had already taken the bow and arrows, and waited for the emperor to give an order, and accompanied him to hurry up and enter the mountains and forests.

But waiting and waiting, before Shi Yu set off, he saw her sitting down on a chair and began to drink tea.

"Your Majesty, it's already started, aren't you in a hurry?"

"What's the hurry?" Shi Yu drank tea leisurely, "Today is only the first day." ”

"But everyone else has already set off, and the five princes have also gone."

Even if the emperor can't win the five princes, at least he can't be at the bottom of the grades, otherwise it won't hurt his face too much.

Xiao Xiazi's tone was anxious, and the rest of the courtiers also looked at Shi Yu.

After drinking the cup of tea in front of everyone's eyes, Shi Yu put down the teacup slowly, stood up and straightened his robe.

But just when everyone thought she was going to leave, she sat back again.

"Well, let's let those stupid birds fly a little longer."
