Venomous Empress Reborn

910 Hunt (3)

The laughter of the two of them drifted far away with the summer breeze. Among the guards behind them, Hui Xiang whispered to Ba Jiao, “Didn’t they say that Madam has a cold personality and that it’s always Master who pleases Madam? They seem to have a good relationship.”

“Madam is not a cold person.” Ba Jiao smiled and said, “Madam is a good person.”

…

When the sun almost reached its zenith, Shen Miao and Xie Jingxing finally arrived at the hunting ground.

The outer venue of the hunting ground was a flat forest, but the inner venue was in the depth of the forest towards Hua Luan Peak. Hua Luan Peak was a strange peak in Long Ye. It was densely covered with trees, and it was tall and dangerous. There were many rare beautiful sceneries and many rare birds and beasts. Naturally, the journey was very difficult, and it was dangerous because there were wild beasts roaming around.

This place was personally chosen by the late emperor to be the hunting ground. It was a rule that during the 60th year of the festival, the emperor would have to enter the hunting ground to hunt a lion to be sacrificed.

When the late emperor hunted on the Hua Luan peak, he would also encounter danger. However, because there were imperial guards following him in the forest, it was not a big problem. However, things were different now. With the imperial guards, it was even more dangerous than without them.

Shen Miao and Xie Jingxing were undoubtedly the center of attention. When everyone saw that they didn’t come in a carriage, they were dumbfounded. Emperor Yong Le and Consort Jing had already arrived. Consort Jing covered her mouth and exclaimed in surprise. Then, she said, “As the wife of the royal family, how can she… She’s really ill-mannered.”

Emperor Yong Le frowned and looked at Xie Jingxing, as if he was also very unhappy with his doing. Xie Jingxing helped Shen Miao get off the horse and walked towards Emperor Yong Le under the gaze of everyone.

Emperor Yong Le was wearing a bright yellow riding outfit today. He was handsome and had a strong aura. When the two brothers were together, they stole the limelight from all the men present.

Xie Jingxing and Shen Miao bowed to Emperor Yong Le, but neither of them paid attention to Consort Jing. Seeing this, Consort Jing bit her lip and suddenly looked at Shen Miao with a smile. “Princess Consort Rui, you came to the hunting ground with Prince Rui today. You are deeply in love with each other. I’m really envious.” With that, she changed the topic. “In that case, when Prince Rui enters the inner venue, I think you will also follow him, right?”

Before Shen Miao could answer, Emperor Yong Le frowned and said coldly, “She doesn’t have to enter!”

Consort Jing was stunned, as if she did not expect Emperor Yong Le to suddenly speak. She was still thinking that it would be good if Shen Miao followed Prince Rui into the inner venue. The inner venue was filled with ferocious beasts. Even if Shen Miao was not injured, it would still be satisfying to see her in a sorry state. That day, at the Summer Banquet, Shen Miao’s rude words to the Lu family had already reached Consort Jing’s ears. Consort Jing was determined to teach Shen Miao a lesson, but she did not expect Emperor Yong Le to help her out.

Although Consort Jing was arrogant, she did not dare to go against Emperor Yong Le.

Shen Miao understood that Emperor Yong Le was not helping her out. Perhaps Emperor Yong Le and Xie Jingxing had already set up everything. If one more person went in, there would be more variables. Emperor Yong Le was probably afraid that her going in would affect their plan.

Xie Jingxing smiled and glanced at Consort Jing. Although he did not say anything, Consort Jing felt a warning in his gaze. For some reason, apart from Emperor Yong Le, she was most afraid of this young prince. She was even more afraid of Prince Rui than her father.
