After hesitating for a moment, Ye Fan felt that he was too lazy to care. If he deliberately stopped, he would also be discovered.
Anyway, what happened to the Crown Prince and Gu Qing had nothing to do with him, so he simply pretended not to see it.
At the same time, in the Crown Prince's carriage …
"Qing 'er … You've suffered all these years. I'm sorry. If I knew earlier that you were in Rainbow Cloud Workshop, I would have sent someone to redeem you a long time ago …"
Su Yun looked at the beautiful lady in front of him, and his eyes could not move away for a moment.
Although Gu Qing was wearing the green robes of a servant girl, in Su Yun's eyes, she was much better looking than the women in the palace.
The childhood sweetheart that he had been dreaming of had once again appeared in front of him, and she was even more slender and elegant than before, causing Su Yun's heart to beat extremely fast.
"Your Highness the Crown Prince, Qing 'er is no longer the Qing' er of the past. I'm just a commoner. The Crown Prince's status is revered, and the difference between us is like heaven and earth.
If outsiders were to know that the Crown Prince came out to see Qing 'er in private, it would only be disadvantageous to the Crown Prince … "Gu Qing faintly sighed.
Su Yun hurriedly shook his head: "No! This King does not care about that! Qing 'er … Do you hate the Imperial Family, Father, and everything they did to the Gu Family back then?
If you have hatred in your heart, you can say it. This Prince can completely understand …
What happened back then had nothing to do with you, and neither you nor I can change anything. "
"Crown Prince … Gu Qing is all alone now, and his family has long since been buried in the bitter cold of the Wilderness.
After struggling at death's door and returning to the Great War, she was tricked into going to the Rainbow Cloud House. How could she still have the right to hate the royal family?
I'm just a weak woman. I only hope that I can live my life peacefully … "Gu Qing had a pitiful expression on her face.
Su Yun's heart tightened, one of his hands trembling, he wanted to touch Gu Qing's hand …
But Gu Qing was like a frightened rabbit, she hurriedly withdrew her hand, not letting the man touch her.
Su Yun immediately apologized: "Qing'er, This King was rude, I forgot that you and I are not children anymore.
Thinking back to when we were young, we still held hands and played around in the old master's residence.
I remember that you said that you wanted to be my consort when you grew up … "
"Your Highness, it's been so many years, there's no need to mention the past …" Gu Qing blushed and lowered his head.
Su Yun saw that the lady revealed a bashful look, and his eyes revealed joy, he said: "Qing 'er, don't worry, if this king inherits the throne one day, I will definitely give you a title, and wash away the injustice of your Gu Family."
Gu Qing raised her head, her eyes filled with gratitude, but she still shook her head and said, "Your Highness, with this kind intention, my grandfather's spirit in heaven should be satisfied.
Qing 'er will silently pray for Your Highness. In the future, Your Highness, please don't come looking for Qing' er again, lest others find out and criticize you. "
Hearing that, Su Yun felt even more love and pity in his heart. "Don't worry, I will be careful when I come out. Furthermore, there is the Grand Princess and Prince Consort in the Marquis Mansion to receive me. They will not speak carelessly.
I've already told them to take care of you and not let you suffer any grievances. "
"Your Highness, there's no need for you to do this. You're putting Princess Fuma in a difficult position.
As Gu Qing spoke, he opened the car door and said, "Your Highness, quickly return to the palace. If you stay here for too long, it won't be good if people see the problem."
After saying that, Gu Qing got out of the car and jogged back to the manor.
Su Yun had a face full of unwillingness as he watched the beautiful figure running away. He was very reluctant to part with her.
Turning his head, Su Yun discovered that a water-colored embroidered handkerchief had landed where Gu Qing had been sitting.
He quickly took it and was about to call for Gu Qing, but he had already disappeared.
Su Yun could only close the car door, look at the handkerchief, lower his head, and smell it.
… ….
Regarding the matter between Gu Qing and the Crown Prince, Su Yun, Ye Fan didn't ask too much about it.
Two days before the Winter Hunt, Ye Fan was busy handing over the large sum of money he had earned to the shopkeeper of the Flying Crane Trading Company. He also specially greeted the Third Prince, Su He, and told him to quickly go to the Wilderness to purchase goods.
Su He was amazed by Ye Fan's medical methods of earning money. He kept saying on the phone, "It's a pity that you don't become a profiteer."
Ye Fan didn't care about all this. In any case, he only earned some money from the rich and even taught them genuine medical skills. He had a clear conscience.
As the first snow of winter melted away, the winter hunt organized by the royal family finally arrived.
Early in the morning, on the streets of the city, the majestic hunting party left the city gate under the enthusiastic onlookers of a large number of commoners.
The golden imperial carriage that the Emperor of the Underworld was sitting on was being pulled by four golden-furred lion-like demonic beasts.
In order to appear friendly, the Emperor of the Underworld stood on the carriage and waved to some of the commoners.
In front and behind the Emperor's carriage, King Qi Su Qi, Imperial Uncle Luo Beiwang, and a few other Heavenly Kings and Empyrean experts were also accompanying them.
He didn't bring many troops with him, because if anything were to happen, the experts above the Empyrean level would be the key to deciding everything.
At the back of the large group, Ye Fan sat on a Jade-Scaled Wildebeest with sharp horns on its head and silver-gray scales on its body.
This was what Uncle Shui had arranged for him in the morning. This kind of low-level demon beast was tamed, but it was bumpy to sit on, far less comfortable than the Primordial Stone car. leaf
Fan Xian kept changing his sitting posture with a depressed look on his face. What kind of lousy activity was this? It was a waste of time and it was uncomfortable.
"What's wrong? Our God of Poetry, Prince Consort Ye, why is he sighing?"
Crown Prince Su Yun slowed down from the front and came to Ye Fan's side, smiling as he greeted him.
Obviously, because of Gu Qing, Su Yun also wanted to take the initiative to get closer to Ye Fan.
Ye Fan forced a smile, "Crown Prince, this thing is not comfortable to ride. Why don't we all go out in a car?"
"Haha …" Su Yun laughed and said, "Prince Consort Ye might not know this, but we are going to the Royal Hunting Ground, the Twilight Forest. The terrain there is undulating and the trees are lush.
What we need to hunt is not only wild beasts, but also demonic beasts. If it was a normal mount, it would lose control of itself upon seeing a demonic beast.
"For example, although this kind of Jade-Scaled Wildebeest is a low-level demonic beast, it is extremely valiant after being tamed. It can allow you to focus on dealing with demonic beasts." leaf
Fan Xian thought to himself, what kind of hunt is this? If I send out ten thousand swords at the same time, wouldn't all the demonic beasts in the forest die?
He muttered in his heart, but his eyes caught sight of the mount that Su Yun was riding.
It was a demonic beast that looked like a white-furred saber-toothed tiger. There were golden stripes on its body, and it was very awe-inspiring.
"Crown Prince, this one of yours is not bad. There's a cushion under your feet. Is it comfortable to ride on?" Ye Fan asked.
"This was given to me by the Supreme Emperor Grandpa back then. I raised the Wind Chasing Tiger since I was young, and it can be considered a middle grade demonic beast, right?"
"It's just that it hasn't activated its intelligence yet, so it can't cultivate." Su Yun stroked the tiger's head with great fondness.
Ye Fan listened to the novelty. He thought of his family's gluttonous snake and fat tiger, and thought to himself, "Don't all demonic beasts cultivate from the very beginning?"
"How is this demonic beast divided? Do I have to unlock my intelligence to cultivate? "Ye Fan asked.
Without waiting for Su Yun to say anything, a cold female voice came from the other side …
"Prince Consort Ye is so talented, how can he not even know such a basic thing?" The one who was mocking him was Ye Weiyang, who was sitting on a beautiful palanquin.
He didn't know why, but the others were all riding demonic beast mounts. Only this princess had four maidservants carry her sedan chair, making her seem especially different from the others.
The other young talents realized that Ye Weiyang didn't seem to be on good terms with Ye Fan, and they were secretly laughing.
Ye Fan was too lazy to bother with him, while Su Yun smiled awkwardly and patiently explained.
It turned out that in the Great Desolate World, other than ordinary wild beasts, demonic beasts were usually divided into low, middle, and high grades.
What determined the level of a demonic beast was not how ferocious it was or how big it was, but the intelligence of the demonic beast.
Of course, generally speaking, the stronger the demonic beast, the more intelligent it would be.
The higher the level of the demonic beast, the higher the probability of it opening its intelligence, and the shorter the time it would take.
Only by opening its intelligence and absorbing spiritual energy on its own could it be considered a spiritual beast.
Spiritual beasts were actually demonic beasts that had opened up their intelligence. The strength of a spiritual beast depended on the strength of its bloodline and its cultivation.
"For example, this Wind Chasing Tiger of This King usually needs fifty years to gain intelligence, so it can only be considered a middle tier demonic beast. However, if it's lucky, it can also be opened in twenty to thirty years."
For example, many of the Dragon Beast bloodline with higher bloodlines were born with intelligence, but they were relatively rare.
"They have enough intelligence and will not clash with cultivators for no reason. Usually, they only appear in uninhabited areas," Su Yun said. leaf
Fan Xian nodded in understanding. Speaking of which, when he met Xiao Jin, this fellow was already a few thousand years old, and Fat Tiger was of the Lu Wu bloodline. He was born with intelligence, so it was no wonder that they could cultivate …
Just as Ye Fan was thinking, a middle-aged man wearing a general's uniform came down from the front.
"Young talents, we are about to leave the city gate. According to the rules, the young disciples participating in the Winter Hunt will all be divided into groups of two by His Majesty.
If there was any danger, it was fortunate that there was someone in the Twilight Forest to take care of.
Everyone is a disciple of an illustrious sect, so you should have some interactions in private. Why don't you form your own team first?
