Mo Rongzhan always felt a little uneasy today. He hadn't experienced this feeling for a long time. The last time he had this feeling was the day when Ye Zhen set fire to Prince Qin's Mansion. He didn't know what would happen today.
"Ford, what's the matter in the palace today?" Mo Rongzhan put down the memorial in his hand and turned to look at Ford.
"Your Majesty, what do you mean?" Ford couldn't understand Mo Rongzhan's meaning. What else could happen in the palace today? The imperial concubine had just been abandoned. All the concubines were afraid and excited. Now they were all trying to get close to the emperor.
Apart from this, he didn't think anything else would happen in the palace. However, he didn't think the emperor would care about what the concubines were doing.
Mo Rongzhan frowned slightly and seemed to be somewhat dissatisfied with Ford's answer.
Ford looked at Mo Rongzhan's expression and suddenly said, "The little prince went hunting with the princess today."
"When did they go?" Mo Rongzhan remembered. Yesterday, Ah Yi said that he was going to the hunting ground today. Was his uneasy mood related to this matter?
"You left the palace during the morning court session." Ford said. His guess was right. The Emperor would be very concerned about anything related to the Princess Royal Highness.
The hunting ground was guarded by people. There were no beasts inside, so he was not worried about the safety of the two little guys. "Are there any guards following them?"
Ford looked at Mo Rongzhan and said in a low voice, "The little prince brought twelve palace guards. Your Majesty, you can rest assured that the little prince and the princess will not be in any danger. Marquis Jingning also went to the hunting ground."
Mo Rongzhan's face changed immediately. "Tang Zhen also went to the hunting ground?"
"Your Majesty, Marquis Jingning seems to have a rest today. After the court session, he went directly to the hunting ground." Ford lowered his head and replied.
"Go and prepare a horse!" Mo Rongzhan said immediately. He had already called the palace maid outside to come in and help him change clothes.
If he knew that Tang Zhen also went to the hunting ground today, he would definitely follow. Tang Zhen dared to secretly see Yao Yao behind his back!
Mo Rongzhan remembered the last time Tang Zhen said he wanted to marry Yao Yao and finally understood why he felt uneasy early in the morning.
In fact, Ford had already asked people to prepare Mo Rongzhan's mount. When he learned that Tang Zhen was also going to the hunting ground, he felt that the emperor would not sit still.
Sure enough, he really was the emperor's personal eunuch.
Mo Rongzhan had changed into a dark purple brocade robe with narrow sleeves. A few auspicious clouds were embroidered on the sleeves and the robe, making him look tall and slender. His entire body was filled with an intimidating tension, and his gaze was as cold as ever. When he walked out of the Palace of Heavenly Purity, a white Jade Flower Buckskin had already been prepared.
He nimbly mounted the horse and ran out of the palace. Ford and the others hurriedly chased after him.
At this time, Ye Zhen and the others had already begun the group competition in the hunting forest. She led Mo Rongyi and two other aristocratic families, while Tang Zhen led two other people. The guards, including Hong Ying, were hunting separately. Whoever had more prey would be rewarded by Mo Rongyi.
Everyone immediately became excited and prepared to show off their skills.
Tang Zhen turned his head and looked at Ye Zhen with a smile. "Yao Yao, I lost to you last time. This time, I will not show mercy."
"Don't look down on people. Marquis Jingning, go all out." Ye Zhen said faintly.
"Okay!" Tang Zhen smiled, his eyes looking at her affectionately.
The sunlight shone on her body, contrasting against her jade-like skin, making her appear even more beautiful and radiant like the flowers of spring. He would never be able to forget the shock he felt when he first laid eyes on her. At that time, she galloped on her horse like a swallow flying on a dragon. His heart was moved at first glance, and the second glance was enough for him to be with her for life.
She asked him if he would give up the glory and wealth of the capital and leave with her. Tang Zhen thought it was a difficult choice, but he found that he had almost no hesitation. He wanted to be with her. Being with her was better than many glory and wealth.
"Let's go!" Ye Zhen felt Tang Zhen's burning gaze. She blushed slightly and did not look at him. She said to Mo Rongyi.
"Jia!" Mo Rongyi shouted, "This Prince is going to shoot a deer today and use its skin to make sleeves for Imperial Mother."
Ye Zhen looked at him with a smile. "Then you have to shoot accurately. Don't damage the deer skin. It's best to kill with one arrow."
"Don't look down on this Prince!" Mo Rongyi snorted coldly. The two teams separated further and further.
Ye Zhen mainly accompanied Mo Rongyi today. She did not have to shoot as many prey as she wanted. However, since it was a competition, it was better not to lose.
"Yao Yao, there are no deer here. Let's go inside." Mo Rongyi shot two rabbits but still did not find the sika deer he wanted. He was a little disappointed.
"The deeper we go, the more difficult it is to walk. Are you sure you want to go in?" The hunting ground was set up against the mountains. Although it has been isolated to prevent wild animals from entering, few people, except for the real masters, enter the deep mountain forest.
Mo Rongyi said, "Since we are out hunting, of course, we should enjoy ourselves. Do you want to lose to Marquis Jingning?"
"Or, you wait for me here. I'll go see if there are any sika deer." Ye Zhen said.
"The young prince is brave. He will definitely be able to hunt a sika deer." The guard next to him smiled and cheered Mo Rongyi on.
Mo Rongyi straightened his chest and said to Ye Zhen, "Do I need you to protect me, a big man? I have so many guards around me. What will happen to me? "
A big man? Ye Zhen almost laughed. "Well, let's go inside."
Anyway, although the hunting ground was large, it was very safe. However, she was a little puzzled. When she came to hunt last time, she saw a lot of deer. Why didn't she see a single one today?
Did they all go to Tang Zhen's side?
They walked into a path with towering trees on both sides. The road could only accommodate two people. Mo Rongyi was with a guard and Hong Ying was beside Ye Zhen.
The two sides of the road were very quiet. There was not even a rabbit or pheasant to be seen. Ye Zhen squinted slightly and looked left and right, the doubts in her heart growing.
"Yi …" She wanted Mo Rongyi to go back the way they came. Today's hunting ground was a little unusual.
Mo Rongyi looked back. Just as he was about to ask Ye Zhen what happened, he saw black shadows passing on both sides of the road. He shouted, "Yao Yao, be careful!"
Several black-clothed men rushed out of the woods, carrying knives to kill Mo Rongyi and Ye Zhen.
Hong Ying and other guards immediately pulled out their swords and surrounded Ye Zhen and Mo Rongyi.
"Who are you? How dare you murder the prince here? "Ye Zhen looked at the masked black-clothed men and asked sternly.
What answered her was a sharper flash of swords and knives.
These people were highly skilled in martial arts, even more powerful than the guards. Ye Zhen took Mo Rongyi's hand. "Let's go."
