The Imperial Enclosure was not far from the east gate of the Fairy's Capital. It was more than ten miles away. Even if they rode slowly, they would arrive in no time.
It was a boundless grassland with a few dense forests in the middle. Everywhere they looked was green and full of life.
The grassland scenery was different from the Great Ji Dynasty. The Imperial Princesses liked it and treated the Hunting Ceremony as a place to relax.
However, this was only for the Imperial Princesses. The Imperial Princes did not have the leisure to do so.
The Hunting Ceremony was not for the Imperial Princes to be the hunters and hunt the beasts in the enclosure. It was for the Imperial Princes to be the prey and the soldiers who had military merits on the battlefield to be the hunters and hunt the Imperial Princes.
The Hunting Ceremony was not a child's play. It was a real battle. The victor would accumulate military merits and it would not be inferior to an army in a big battle. This military merit was enough for the soldiers to give their all and disregard everything. As long as they won, it would be better than a battle of life and death.
With the military merit, they did not care how powerful the Imperial Princes were or if he would take revenge on them. They had to take care of what was in front of them first.
Moreover, the Great Ji Army and even the martial arts world worshipped the strong. The strong were respected. If they could defeat the Imperial Princes, they could let the Imperial Princes see their power and remember them.
When Chu Li and the others arrived, there were already a few groups of people gathered together. They were chatting and playing. It was very relaxing.
When they saw Princess Lu and the others, a few groups of people surrounded them.
Princess Lu introduced Siao Shi to the other Princesses.
Chu Li stood at the side and did not say anything. He watched Siao Shi greet the Princesses in a natural and unrestrained manner. She was calm and at ease.
She was graceful and elegant. In addition to her unparalleled beauty, she made the other women pale in comparison.
After exchanging greetings for a while, Siao Shi seemed to be exhausted. When Consort Lu saw this, she knew that Siao Shi's injury had yet to heal and her body had yet to fully recover. Hence, she pulled everyone to the side and asked her to rest in the pavilion.
Chu Li channeled the wood spiritual energy into Siao Shi's body. She was refreshed.
Leng Qiu and Leng Qing had already left to find other sisters to play. Only Siao Shi, the three Princesses, Chu Li, Yang Xu and Xue Ling were left.
The sound of horse hooves could be heard. Leng Feng brought a few young men and ran towards Chu Li as if they wanted to trample him.
Chu Li looked at them calmly.
Leng Feng and the others pulled on the reins of their horses, and the seven horses reared up and stopped in their original spots. Leng Feng and the others sat steadily on the backs of the horses.
Leng Feng fist saluted to the three ladies.
He then looked at Chu Li and said faintly, "Head Chief Chu, let's have some fun together later!"
Chu Li shook his head. "Thank you for your kind intentions, Crown Prince Feng, but I'll pass."
"Head Chief Chu, what's the point of staying in a pile of women? We're all real men who want to do great things. How can we be content in a pile of women and not think about improving ourselves?" Leng Feng said calmly.
Chu Li said, "Prince Feng, Chu Chu Li. My duty is Imperial Imperial Princess, there is no Imperial imperial imperial's Imperial's Princess.
"This is the imperial enclosure, how can there be any danger here?" Leng Feng pointed at the surroundings. "There are experienced soldiers guarding the place. Even if there are assassins, they won't be able to get in. Head Chief Chu, are you looking down on them?"
Chu Li frowned and smiled. "What do you mean, Prince Feng?"
Leng Feng's spirit was roused, and he said loudly: "Even though we also brought guards, once we reached the enclosure, we let them rest. With these elite soldiers guarding, there is no need for these guards. But Chief Chu is following Wang Fei closely with a worried expression. Could it be that he is really afraid that an assassin will break in?"
"That's right!" The young men around him chimed in.
They were talking absent-mindedly. Their gazes involuntarily drifted towards Siao Shi. They were captivated by Siao Shi's beautiful face.
Chu Li smiled. "Prince Feng, you've misunderstood. I'm not guarding against an assassin. Lady Siao Shi's injury hasn't healed for a long time. She's still sick. This is a rare opportunity to meet the Princesses. That's why I brought her sick body out."
"Since the maids are there, why do we need a man like you?" Leng Feng laughed.
Chu Li shook his head. "Prince Feng, this is the Training Ground. It's a rare chance for the Princes to experience war. It's not a place for personal battles. Us Scribes going up there is against the Great Ancestor's original intention. Prince Feng, forgive me for not complying."
Leng Feng's face darkened.
This Chu Li was too cunning. With just a few words, he changed the topic. Unknowingly, he shifted the blame away. He even mocked him and taught him a lesson. How hateful!
Suddenly, an enigmatic voice came from the crowd. "Are you afraid?"
Chu Li smiled and looked at Leng Tao. He turned to look at Siao Shi. "Lady Siao Shi, let's avoid them."
Everyone's attention was involuntarily attracted by Siao Shi. They were absent-minded when they heard Leng Feng and Chu Li. When they saw Chu Li and Siao Shi talking, they became spirited.
Siao Shi glanced at the crowd and looked at Leng Feng. "Prince Feng, did we women spoil your fun? It's useless to stay with women. It's better for you to stay away from us! "
Everyone looked at Leng Feng. They couldn't help but blame him for offending a beauty.
Leng Feng closed fist saluted and said seriously, "Third Aunt, you misunderstood."
Siao Shi waved her hand and ignored his explanation. "I'm tired. I don't have the energy to talk to people. Please!"
Leng Feng was slightly stunned. He didn't expect Siao Shi to be so rude.
As the son of King Jing, he was always greeted with a smile wherever he went because of King Jing. Even if there were some who were not flattering, he would not treat them coldly. It made him feel even more uncomfortable to have such a beautiful woman treat him coldly.
Siao Shi turned around. "Sister Song, Sister Xue, go talk to Consort Lu. I'll go sit in the gazebo."
Leng Feng's face turned even uglier.
Siao Shi's words were obviously saying that he was a generation younger than her. She was too lazy to talk to him.
Chu Li smiled. "Consort Lu is very busy. Let's find a place to rest."
"Hmm, very good." Siao Shi nodded lazily.
Everyone suddenly felt pity for her. They wished that they were the ones holding her instead of Yang Xu and Xue Ling.
Chu Li closed fist saluted and smiled. "Prince Feng, everyone, I'll take my leave first!"
Leng Tao stood in the crowd and sneered. He continued to speak in a strange tone, "Trying to escape when you can't win. How impressive!"
Chu Li didn't even look at him. He went to a gazebo with Siao Shi and the other four ladies.
Leng Tao said, "Brother Feng, this guy is too arrogant!"
"Shut up!" Leng Feng glared at him.
No matter how angry he was, he could tell that Leng Tao was up to no good. Leng Tao was trying to provoke him and Chu Li to fight.
He didn't mind fighting Chu Li but he didn't want to be used by others. He hated Leng Tao's intentions.
Leng Tao touched his nose in embarrassment. He chuckled and said nothing.
"Leng Tao, didn't you get slapped? Hit him back!" Someone laughed.
Leng Tao scoffed. "If I could beat him, I would've beaten him half to death!"
