I’m the Farmgirl You Can’t Mess With -
Chapter 1065 - Chapter 1065 Autumn Hunt (2)
Chapter 1065: Autumn Hunt (2) Chapter 1065: Autumn Hunt (2) Editor: Atlas Studios Dressed neatly in a riding outfit, Mu Yangling carried a child in each arm and went to the tent.
Baozhu and Little Leopard leaned on their mother’s shoulder and looked around curiously with their round eyes.
In the tent, the Empress was receiving the officials.
Seeing Mu Yangling’s outfit, she knew that she was going to follow the Emperor and the others into the mountain later.
She opened her arms to the two children.
“Baozhu, Little Leopard, come here.” Mu Yangling placed the two children on the ground, and Baozhu and Little Leopard ran towards the Empress.
They nestled in her arms and looked around.
The hearts of the women in the tent skipped a beat.
When they looked at Mu Yangling, someone praised with a beam, “Your Highness’s clothes today match the occasion and make you look valiant and heroic.
If I didn’t know that this was the Princess Consort, I would have thought that you were a female general who had walked out from an ancient painting.” Smiling, the Empress said, “Don’t praise her for looking like a female general.
It’ll be bad if she asks to go to the battlefield after hearing that.
When His Majesty said that he wanted to hunt, she and Prince Rong were so happy, it was as if they hadn’t used bows and arrows in eight lifetimes.” The Empress looked at Mu Yangling, who was pursing her lips and smiling, and said, “Alright, I know you’re anxious.
Go quickly.
His Majesty and the others are going to set off in a while.
I heard that someone boasted in front of His Majesty that they would definitely get first place in the hunt.” Only then did Mu Yangling bow and bid farewell to everyone.
The madams looked at each other when they saw this.
Yan Du’s wife, Mrs.
Yan, couldn’t help but ask, “Her Highness is going to participate too?” The Empress nodded with a smile.
“She’s not bad at riding and hunting, so His Majesty asked her to go with His Highness Prince Rong.” She pushed the blame to Qi Xiuyuan.
As expected, when everyone heard that it was the Emperor’s order, they all praised Princess Consort Rong for being capable.
It was really hard to tell on the surface.
After chatting for a while, a horn sounded in front of them.
The Empress held the boy-girl twins’ hands and stood up.
She smiled and said, “It’s starting ahead.
Let’s go see His Majesty draw the bow.” The hunting in the West Mountain began with the first arrow shot by the Emperor.
Qi Xiuyuan was a general on horseback to begin with.
When he heard the horn, he couldn’t help but excitedly stare at the deer in the field with a burning gaze.
After shooting one with his bow, he got someone to announce the start.
He didn’t have the hobby of shooting beasts in a cage and planned to go deeper into the forest.
Qi Xiuyuan took the lead and rushed into the forest, followed by the guards.
Qi Haoran hesitated for a moment before turning to ask Mu Yangling, “Are we going after Big Brother?” Having previously studied the terrain of the West Mountain, she pointed in another direction.
“Let’s go around here.
That way, we can meet Big Brother before he enters the deep forest.” Fan Zijin rode his horse to their side and said breezily, “The West Mountain has long been checked for dangers.
You should, instead, think about how many prey you need to hunt to get first place.
There are many capable generals at the West Mountain Hunt this year.” Mu Yangling smiled and said, “Zijin, don’t worry.
We will definitely help you maintain a certain ranking.
We won’t let you fall behind too much.” Fan Zijin snorted coldly.
“I’m a civil servant.
So what if I’m behind?
Now that most of the people have left, how much longer are you going to hang around here?” Qi Haoran and Mu Yangling rushed out and soon disappeared into the forest.
By now, everyone knew that Princess Consort Rong had gone into the mountains with Prince Rong.
Some of the women who came along also rode horses and hunted, but they mostly rode around the periphery and did not enter the depths of the forest.
Some of them could not help but be envious when they saw Mu Yangling riding in.
“If only my older brother could bring me into the mountains too.” Someone teased, “Are you talking about your future husband?
Princess Consort Rong was not brought in by her older brother, but by Prince Rong.” Many of the women blushed.
“What nonsense are you talking about?
Girls aren’t supposed to say things like that.” On the other side, the married women were much more direct.
“My husband only cared about playing by himself.
How could he have thought of bringing me into the mountains?
When I said that I wanted to hunt this time, he laughed at me and said that it was fine as long as I didn’t fall off my horse and embarrass myself.
They’re all men, and he’s even a scholar.
In the end, he can’t even compare to Prince Rong, who’s a martial artist.” “My husband’s like that too.
He just lets me ride my horse on the periphery and asks me not to go deeper in and embarrass myself.
He even said that if I really encounter wild beasts, he won’t be able to save me.” “In terms of thoughtfulness, no one can compare to Prince Rong.
Just now, I took a look and saw that Prince Rong waited until everyone went in before bringing Her Highness in.
It seems like it was Her Highness’s idea.” “That’s why everyone says that Princess Consort Rong is so lucky.
Born a farm girl, after she married Prince Rong, her father went from a hunter to a Grade 2B official.
She even gave birth to five children, four of whom were sons.
She’s the most blessed woman in Great Qi.
If she actually has in-laws, no one in the capital can compare to her in terms of blessings.” “It’s a pity that Princess Consort Rong doesn’t like to go out, and we don’t have any connections to get to know her.
Otherwise, it would be good for some of that luck to rub off on us.” “Speaking of her blessings, guess if Prince Rong can get first place this time with the help of her blessedness.” “That’s a little difficult.
Although Her Highness is blessed, hunting depends on true ability.
With a burden like her tagging along, it’s a little difficult for His Highness to get first place.” A few older madams looked at each other and smiled.
“But we think Prince Rong can still get first place this time.” Unlike these people, the few of them had always stayed in the capital.
Although they hadn’t seen the Princess Consort’s ability with their own eyes, they’d heard plenty of rumors.
So many people had sworn that the Princess Consort was capable, so it couldn’t be all fake.
At this moment, half of the guards following Qi Haoran and Mu Yangling had already been left behind to pick up their prey.
After looking around, Mu Yangling pointed in a direction.
“We’ll meet Big Brother there if he keeps walking in and doesn’t turn north.
Considering that’s the edge of the West Mountain, generally speaking, they won’t change directions.” Qi Haoran said, “Then let’s go in a little deeper and directly steal his prey.” The captain of the guards who followed them was sweating profusely.
“Your Highness, if we go further in, we’ll be in a place where ferocious beasts appear.
It’s too dangerous.
Even if you manage to shoot down the prey, our people have to risk their lives to retrieve it.
BesidesaEUR|” Besides, is it really good for you to intercept the Emperor like this?
The guard captain looked at the Princess Consort eagerly, hoping that she would persuade Prince Rong.
However, Mu Yangling merely shrugged.
Before they came, they had already agreed that she would listen to Qi Haoran when they entered the hunting grounds.
Qi Haoran said, “Make a mark here.
There’s no need to get the guards to collect the prey inside.
We’ll bring out what we can and leave behind what we can’t.” Helpless, the guard captain could only make a mark and follow the Prince and Princess Consort in with the guards.
Because the forest in the mountain was dense, the horses’ speed slowly decreased.
Holding the reins in her left hand and the bow in her right hand, Mu Yangling listened to the surroundings and was wondering where they were going to find prey when Qi Haoran whispered to her, “Ah Ling, can you lead us to avoid the ferocious beasts in the mountain?” Mu Yangling’s hand that was holding the reins paused and she nodded slightly.
“I’ll try.” She looked at the traces around her and took the lead, leading everyone around the forest until they left the dense forest.
Indeed, they did not encounter a single ferocious beast.
Mu Yangling looked at Qi Haoran, who asked, “Can you do the same in an unfamiliar forest?” “I’m not familiar with West Mountain either.” Mu Yangling deliberated and said, “Actually, other than investigating the traces, the most important thing is luck.
We were lucky this time.
The ferocious beasts that often appear in this forest might have been frightened by the people who entered the West Mountain these few days and went deeper into the forest.” “You’ve always been very lucky,” Qi Haoran said.
Soon, he heard the Emperor’s movements and brought his men to welcome him.
