Chapter 335: Don't underestimate, the autumn hunt begins
"presumptuous."
Concubine Xiao said softly, "How can you talk to your mother like that?"
Ling Yu stopped pretending: "Mother, don't you see how you look every time you talk about Ling Tian?"
"Others who don't know this would think there's something going on between you two."
Snapped!
Concubine Xiao panicked and slapped him again, angrily scolding, "Asshole."
Concubine Xiao's face flushed red, her proud chest heaved violently with anger, and she glared at Ling Yu with a fierce look, as if she wanted to eat him. Ling Yu was also awakened by two consecutive slaps.
Eyes evasive.
Not daring to look at Concubine Xiao, he whispered, "Mother, I was just in a hurry, so I spoke without restraint."
"okay."
Concubine Xiao did not want to dwell on this issue any further: "Don't be careless. Since Lao Liu will participate in the autumn hunt this time, I believe there must be a way. After all, Gui Mian is not an ordinary person."
"If he is not absolutely sure, His Highness the Sixth Prince will not participate in the autumn hunt."
"You need to be careful about him attacking you during the Autumn Hunt."
kindness?
Ling Yu was shocked when he heard that, and almost laughed out loud. Attack him?
He was the crown prince of Daqian. Apart from the emperor, anyone who dared to attack the crown prince would be punished by death. However, he still suppressed his anger and whispered, "Mother, don't worry."
"I will be careful."
Concubine Xiao was too lazy to say more: "Think about it yourself."
After saying this, Concubine Xiao turned around and left. She didn't want to stay any longer. After all, she was also very worried. What would happen if she was exposed at this time?
The Third Prince's Mansion!
The same scene was also playing out. Ling Xu didn't understand Concubine Li's anger: "Mother, why should I be afraid of a loser?"
"Xu'er." Concubine Li explained: "No matter how useless the Sixth Prince is, he has Ghost Face behind him to help him. Just this point alone means that the Sixth Prince cannot be underestimated."
"After all, in the entire Daqian court, Guimian is the one that everyone wants to make friends with."
Ling Xu curled his lips: "Mother, there is no need to be so nervous. Ghost Face dares to attack me in the hunting ground."
"That's not necessarily the case."
Concubine Li frowned: "Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven and the head of the family. He actually lacks everything except an heir!"
"Not to mention you, even if all the princes died overnight."
"What good can it do?"
"He is in good health now. If we give him some time, a new batch of children will be born."
Ling Xu was speechless for a moment. In fact, this is also the root of the royal family's ruthlessness. As long as there are enough seeds, countless flowers will bloom and countless fruits will be produced.
Bloodline!
It's just the most ridiculous favor of the royal family.
Seeing Ling Xu remained silent, Concubine Li patted him on the shoulder and said, "Remember, never think too highly of yourself."
“Don’t underestimate anyone either.”
"After all, the prince was a recognized genius in Daqian, and he could not escape death."
"On the contrary, he is a useless prince, a piece of mud that everyone thinks is hopeless, but he has escaped from the jaws of death many times and even won the favor of Ghost Face."
“All of this is by no means a coincidence.”
Ling Xu nodded: "Mother, I understand."
"Okay, you should go to bed early. I look forward to your performance at the autumn hunt tomorrow." After saying this, Concubine Li turned and left.
The Sixth Prince’s Mansion!
Chu Wan'er came to Ling Tian angrily at this time and glared at him: "What are you up to? You clearly refused, but you want to participate again?"
"hey-hey."
Ling Tian grinned: "Wife, have you forgotten that when you and I first got married, you told me to be a man that everyone respects."
"In that case."
"I can't be careless at all."
"No matter what, I want them to see my transformation."
"At least I won't let people talk about you behind your back."
Chu Wan'er was stunned when she heard this. She had thought about how Ling Tian would fool her, but she never expected him to be so tender. Her face turned slightly red and she pouted her red lips: "I won't listen to your glib talk."
"Tomorrow's autumn hunt will be held. I heard that it will be quite large in scale. His Majesty will even allow some foreign merchants and some respected people to visit."
“This has never happened before.”
Ling Tian naturally knew the mystery of this, which was to give the people from Fenghuo Sect a chance. Otherwise, they couldn't even enter the hunting ground, so how could they assassinate him?
No assassination.
How the plan proceeds!
Ling Tian played dumb: "Father's thoughts are ever-changing, I dare not presume to guess what the emperor is thinking."
Chu Wan'er curled her lips: "Then how sure are you?"
"What can I be sure of?" Ling Tian said, "Wife, don't you think about it? I can't compare with any of them in terms of riding and shooting. At most, I can only bully Old Eighteen."
"But I didn't expect to get any ranking at all."
"I just don't want others to look down on you."
The lady blushed as she heard the cheesy love words. She glared at Ling Tian in feigned anger, fumbled around in her arms for a while, and then took out some pills: "This is for you."
"what is this?"
"Pills." Chu Wan'er rolled her eyes: "You don't think I'm giving you poison, do you?"
"No, no, no." Ling Tian said quickly: "My wife is very clever, why would she give me poison?"
"Pah." Chu Wan'er pouted, her cheeks flushed as she turned around: "Take one pill a day, remember to take it, it's good for you."
kindness?
Ling Tian watched Chu Wan'er leave, feeling somewhat suspicious, and brought the pill to his nose to smell it...
Wolfberry!
Deer antler!
Horse whip!
……
They are all aphrodisiacs and tonics. If Concubine Xiao were to take this medicine, she would be torn apart. Even if a woman took it, she would have nosebleeds and die of heat, right?
Ling Tian's eyelids twitched, and he understood Chu Wan'er's intention. He cursed in his heart: "Damn it, this silly woman thinks I'm incapable?"
“It’s so infuriating.”
"After this autumn hunt, I'll show you how I'll deal with you."
"If I don't make you obedient, I'm not the Sixth Prince of Daqian."
The more Ling Tian thought about it, the angrier he became, and he even felt insulted!
You can say I'm bad!
You can't say I'm a foodie!
Time flies by in the blink of an eye.
In the blink of an eye, it was time for the autumn hunt to begin. As soon as the sun rose, all the officials of Daqian came to the royal horse ranch on the outskirts of the city, including some merchants, respected elders, and students from Kyoto...
Almost everyone who could come gathered together.
after all.
Autumn hunting has always been a grand event in Daqian. The so-called competition is actually to show one's abilities in front of the emperor and the world.
otherwise.
How to accumulate prestige?
As the crowd continued to gather, the discussion continued: "This autumn hunt is a first in our Daqian."
"Isn't it?"
"This is originally for the court officials and some powerful people to watch. It's really rare that we can watch the game."
"But tell me, who among the participating princes will get good results this time?"
"The most popular candidates this time are Crown Prince Ling Yu and Third Prince Ling Xu."
"Yes, these two princes have been proficient in riding and shooting since childhood, and they have often achieved good results before."
"But I heard that the Sixth Prince also participated."
"Just a piece of trash, what's there to look forward to?"
"I think if he dares to come, he must be prepared."
"Forget it, everyone knows that the Sixth Prince of Daqian is extremely cowardly."
"But I think the Sixth Prince should win the title, right?"
……
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone in the room burst into laughter: "How dare a loser like you dream of winning the championship?"
“This is too funny.”
"Even if I want to believe the Eighteenth Prince, I won't believe him."
……
Obviously, no one was optimistic about Ling Tian, but they did not notice that the person who mentioned Ling Tian just now had a sly smile on his face: "Since no one believes it."
"Why don't we place a bet?"
"Just bet on the odds of ten to one."
"But if His Highness the Sixth Prince wins, then I will kill him all."
It was not unusual to set odds, and Emperor Wu generally acquiesced. After all, the autumn hunt was a big event, and it was also a chance to witness the positioning of many princes in the hearts of the people. Everyone nodded in agreement.
The tall, thin man who made the suggestion smiled evilly, put away the banknotes handed over by everyone, and cheered in his heart: "I've made a fortune."
"Get rich."
"I've made a fortune."
Just after everyone placed their bets, the crowd at the scene began to commotion again: "The Sixth Prince is coming."
