The princess of time travel is not stupid

Chapter 42

Driving all the way, it took an hour and a half to arrive at the Royal Hunting Garden. The accompanying palace people began to arrange in an orderly manner, and the empress got off the carriage and went to the stands of the hunting ground. After everyone followed, she glanced at everyone with satisfaction. , laughed and said: "You don't need to follow any rules today, just kill more prey than anyone else, and I will reward you a lot."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Everyone replied.

When she was in the study, Xia Mi had also learned riding and archery, and it was not difficult for her. She looked around, and the third child was still grounded and did not follow, but Dong Meiren was in the accompanying team, and now he Whether it is clothing or actions, it seems that there is no publicity in the past.

Xia Mi shook his head, indeed there were ups and downs.

"I don't know how Prince Yi rides and shoots? Anyway, I'm not very good, can I follow the prince?" Mo Ya walked up to Xia Mi, cupped her hands and said. It's just normal, if you don't mind, I'll have a companion when we wait."

The two looked at each other and smiled, and Mo Ya was half a step behind, standing with her.In the hunting ground, horses, bows and arrows are usually prepared, so there is no need to worry about these.

"Thank you for letting me know about today's matter." Xia Mi said softly to Mo Ya who was beside her while looking at others. No matter what the purpose of her post to Bai Ming was, she had to express it verbally. of.

Mo Ya hummed, and didn't seem to care at all.

At this time, Xia Mi also saw the boss talking to someone else, "Who is that person? Have you met him in the palace?" She was referring to the young woman who was talking to Xia Wu, with a scorpion head and eyebrows, and she was very handsome. Good-looking, in a white shirt, graceful and graceful.

Following Xia Mi's line of sight, Mo Ya looked over, frowned and thought for a while, "This man was recruited into the palace a few days ago, and he seems to be after the Marquis of Rong An, so I don't know the rest." She said that she saw the man beating the little maid in the corridor, and the little maid was reprimanded by the nun.

"From Rong Anhou's family?" Xia Mi stroked her chin and thought about it, what kind of medicine is in the empress' gourd?It's really getting more and more incomprehensible.

Not long after, the palace people from the hunting garden came over with their horses. They had all the harness, even the bows and arrows.Xia Mi smiled and got on the horse. She used to wrestle a lot in order to learn horses, and was reprimanded by her master for her ugly and substandard sitting posture.She thought disdainfully at the time, it looks good, can it be eaten as a meal?

Seeing that everyone was in high spirits, the empress seemed to be very interested in this hunt. She nodded and sat on the stand, drinking tea and laughing without saying a word. After everyone was ready, she still didn't see the empress making any moves. You Look at me, I look at you, a little at a loss, is it because I got on the horse too fast?

"I'm getting old, so I won't get involved. You can go and play as much as you want, and the one who hunts the most will be rewarded with a yellow belt." The empress's words aroused the interest of the generals, each of them clasped their fists and looked eager to try.

"Hey, it looks like they are all powerful enemies." Mo Ya said with emotion.

Xia Mi just smiled. It's hard to say whether you are a strong enemy, but you are not a cheap lamp.Turning her head to Mo Ya, she said, "Let's do our best, it doesn't matter whether we are the first or not."

"What the prince said is true." Mo Ya echoed, "If everyone is as broad-minded as the prince, it would be a beautiful thing in the world."

"If the world is full of lazy people like this king, it will be really bad." Xia Mi joked, but she saw her looking around, as if she was looking for someone, who could it be? "What? Is there still an old friend missing?"

Mo Ya smiled brightly, "It's not really an old friend, she... is just thinking in her heart."

Then I heard the maid shouting "Get ready, start."All of them have already thrown out their whips and ran a long way.Xia Mi touched his nose disheartened, then flicked his whip, and ran towards the hunt.

As soon as they entered the forest garden, some people had already started to shoot their arrows. Just hearing the sound made their necks feel cold. Not in a hurry to hunt, just dangling on the horse, like a traveler traveling in mountains and rivers.

Mo Ya, who was following her, chased after her for a while before catching up, "Your Majesty's riding skills are far superior to mine, I admire you."

Xia Mi smiled softly, "Thank you, thank you, you are not slow."

While talking, a hare ran past in a hurry, Mo Ya saw the instinctive backhand, and the arrow was on the bow, and then remembered that there was a prince standing next to her, if she got ahead, it would not be a good thing , but her arrow has already been set up, and if she puts it down again, it will be too obvious to release water, which is not right.

For a while, it was really a dilemma.

"Why don't you let go? The rabbit is about to run away." Xia Mi said slowly, she had seen it too, but she didn't intend to do it, so Mo Ya had to draw the bow, let go, and the shot missed.

Xia Mi smiled faintly, "I think we should shoot some prey, otherwise it will be too ugly to look back, what do you think?" That arrow was of course intentionally missed.Startled the rabbit and ran away quickly.

Mo Ya retracted the bow, "I also hope that the head will be better."

"All these years, my king's luck has always been good." Saying that, Xia Mi put an arrow on the side of the bow and shot at the squirrel in the tree. "It will also enrich the people around you."

Upon hearing this, Mo Ya drew his bow and shot down a wild goose. "My lord, you really are a nobleman."

Xia Mi nodded in response.

"Then I hope the prince will take good care of you."

"You have also helped me a lot, it's only natural." Xia Mi said lightly, and let out an arrow, hitting a field mouse. No matter what kind of small animals they are, the smaller they are, the harder it is to shoot them. Is it weird that you hit those big targets?Of course, it's not surprising, it's strange that you can't shoot.

The two of you came and went to test each other, and finally reached a consensus.Xia Mi vaguely remembered that winter, when the snow was falling, the boss also came to cooperate with her. At that time, she was still rejected by the empress, and she was imprisoned in the Xige Palace, and no one came to visit.

So many years have passed in a flash of time, and now she is out of the palace to open a mansion, and she has been named a prince, and it is the third child's turn to be imprisoned, but I don't know if the third child will have a day to leave the palace.

It is reported that most of the people who supported the third child in the court and the central government were replaced in successive cleanings, and the Dong family was the only one that was famous.Just, how long can it last?Xia Mi hastily shot a few prey and gave up. He led the horse for a walk in the forest, his nose was filled with the earth-scented air, and he took a deep breath, feeling much more refreshed.

Mo Ya sat on the horse and laughed, "The prince is really a man of temperament." On that day, when he invited Baiming Restaurant to talk, only when he talked about the Second Highness, the corners of Baiming's eyes would be tinged with a smile. There are too many rumors, saying that she is a fool, some say that she is a liar, and even say that she is the incarnation of a demon, otherwise how can she know how to pretend to be crazy at such a young age?There are other things, but Bai Ming said that she is a temperamental person.

It is said that her every move is full of idealism.

Before she could think about it again, both of them heard a rustling sound, as if someone was whispering again.Xia Mi stepped forward, and based on her identity, basically the people present couldn't stop her, which felt very good.So, she took two steps and stopped.

Mo Ya, who was behind her, was a little puzzled, so she also got off the horse, took two steps forward, and finally understood why.

Just about ten meters away, the clothes were scattered, a pair of figures overlapped, and the black hair was entangled, but they were two women.It was the first time to see such a beautiful picture, Xia Mi was stunned for a while and didn't know how to describe it, but just stood there concentrating and holding her breath for a long time.

Afterwards, Mo Ya was also blushing and heart beating.

And those two people didn't know it, not only the overlapping figures, but also the hands moving up and down, making people see flames everywhere.Suddenly turning his face, Xia Mi half-closed his eyes, thinking, isn't that someone from Rong An Hou's family?I saw her talking to the boss before, she was dressed like a human being, and when she took off her clothes, she was so proud.

Thinking of this, she shuddered, turned around and left.

Mo Ya naturally followed.

If I remember correctly, the other woman, whom Ben had never seen in the team, how did she get in?It is no small matter to be able to sneak into the Royal Hunting Garden without being known.She turned to look at Mo Ya, "Do you have any impression of another woman?"

Mo Ya hadn't recovered from that scene yet, when she suddenly heard her question, her mind paused for a moment, and then she recalled the two people just now, only thinking about the overlapping of white bodies, nothing else I can't remember it at all.She blushed a little, "Please ask the prince to make amends, just now... that scene was too shocking, I didn't pay attention to anything else, I'm ashamed to say it."

Xia Mi frowned slightly, whispered a few words in her ear, Mo Ya nodded, and then the two separated.Xia Mi rushed back here immediately, while Mo Ya went to find someone else.

After noon, when I came out of the forest, I suddenly felt that the sun was a bit harsh. Xia Mi raised her hand to cover her eyes, and after getting used to it, she continued to run to the palace of the hunting ground. When a maid saw her coming, she immediately went to pull the horse, "Why is your lord doing this?" Are you back early?"

"Where's the Queen Mother?" Xia Mi got off the horse, and while throwing the reins to her, he strode up the steps and asked.

"Go back to the lord, the emperor just had a meal, presumably he was in the hall." The maid said, the hunters in their party brought in dry food, so naturally they would eat at the right time outside.

Xia Mi didn't say any more, she went in, wandered outside the hall, took a deep breath, and her mind turned quickly. All the way, she just thought that if that person sneaked in, the person who would be implicated and blamed would be Guard, but what if there are others to assist?Rong Anhou was the first to escape.

She ran back with her head running hot for a while. She didn't think about it so much. Now she thought about it slowly, whether to report this matter or not to report it. It only depends on the benefits, which one is more beneficial to her.

I still don't understand why the empress suddenly summoned those dukes. Under the motives of the princes, it's better to stay still.

Xia Mi turned around and wanted to leave, when a court lady came to invite her, "My lord, the emperor is here to invite you."

She was stunned for a moment, thinking that nothing happened when she was walking outside, how could that cheap mother know?Xia Mi rolled her eyes and looked around. Could it be that there are countless hidden guards like Ah Chen?So... what she saw in the forest, and what's more, what she did in the capital, are all under the control of the empress?

Thinking so deeply, Xia Mi felt a chill down her spine.

She wiped the sweat from her forehead, straightened her clothes, and walked in.

The empress was playing chess with herself, still with left and right hands, sitting cross-legged alone, seeing Xia Mi coming, she waved to her, "Second brother, come and play chess with me."

Xia Mi answered yes, walked over, sat opposite the Empress, and took her Heizi. Looking at the overall situation, it seems that Heizi occupies a large area of ​​power, but Baizi is more alive, and he can be killed by Baizi if he is not careful. All games are lost.And Baizi is not a good form of one piece, in general, the winner and loser of the two words of black and white account for half.

No one can play chess like this alone.

"Why did you come back early? How many prey have you hunted, can you secure the first place?"

Xia Mi put down a son, "Not many, just...saw something, didn't think about it so much and ran back first, thinking...it would be better to tell the Queen Mother." She was attached to Heizi, thought for a while, Some frown.

"It's still too young to hold back." The empress said with a sigh, and then dropped down, surrounded Xia Mi's sunspots and ate a slice.

Xia Mi's hands trembled, was she talking about her playing chess, or was she here to report the incident?Or a pun?She raised her eyes to look at the empress, who looked down at the chessboard with her head down, as if all her spirit was on the chessboard.Xia Mi had some doubts, did he think too much?

Within two strokes, Bai Zi ate him again.

It looks like the chessboard is all white.She pondered for a moment, and finally made another move. Just as she put down her hand, the empress opened her hand. She looked at Xia Mi, "Which master who didn't have eyes taught you how to play chess? When you go back, she will be dismissed. What are you teaching?" , knowing that it’s a dead end?”

Xia Mi was not annoyed, and picked up another chess piece with a smile, and continued to play on the gate of death, and said with a smile: "Who knows if the gate of death will become the gate of life?" The white pieces that were supposed to kill all directions were actually blocked, and that dead piece really became a living piece.

The empress saw it and smiled.

She looked at Xia Mi, "Second brother, have you ever blamed the empress?"

Xia Mi acted as if she didn't know what she was asking, and played with the sunspot, "Why should you blame it? There is no queen mother, and there will be no sons and ministers. Born in the heavenly family, with rich clothes and fine food, compared to the road where there is starvation and no food. It’s much, much better for a hungry person.”

"It's true that the bigger the mouth, the sweeter it is." The empress nodded at her and said a few words, and waved her hand to let all the maids go down, leaving only her, Xia Mi, and Qing Wu in the whole hall.

She stretched out her hand, and Xia Mi consciously went to hold it, and the empress got up from the ground and walked slowly to the desk, "Have you seen the people from Rong'an Hou Mansion?"

"Yes, I've seen it." Xia Mi lowered her head and replied.

"Come back early this time, what do you want to play? Let's talk." The empress sat on the chair, took the tea that Qing Wu offered, raised her hand to let her sit down, Qing Wu also handed Xia Mi a cup of tea, She nodded in thanks.

There was only the sound of the teacup being stirred in the whole hall, and the empress didn't rush to ask, she lowered her head and blew on the tea leaves, waiting patiently.Holding the tea, Xia Mi looked at the Empress, thought for a while, and finally said: "I saw some...things while hunting, so I was in a hurry to come back."

She didn't say anything, and the Empress didn't ask, she just hummed and continued to drink tea.

Xia Mi turned her head to look at Qing Wu, not knowing what to do, would this person who has been with the Empress know something about her thoughts?Just thinking about it, Qing Wu nodded slightly.

Really nod?Could it be that this matter can be said?

Xia Mi recounted what she had seen all at once, and the Empress stopped her hands and looked up at her, "So, you think that person is suspicious, so you hurried back here?"

Xia Mi nodded.

The Empress suddenly laughed.

The laughing Xia Mi sat there with a dazed expression.

The empress smiled for a while, put down the teacup, shook her head and said, "Too young."

Mother, this is not the first time you have said this. Laozi is young, but his soul is not young. What kind of charades are you playing?Solve!

She then looked at Xia Mi, or stared at Xia Mi, and said: "My garden, without permission, how can I enter it at will?"

A chill came from the bottom of my heart.

In other words...that is, that person was only allowed in with her consent.However, they did not come with their team today.

When the figures overlap, the two are talking love to each other, what do you want to kill you, and so on, obviously they don't know that each other will be here.Why?coincide?What a coincidence.

"Go down and eat first." The empress said to her kindly, stood up and patted Xia Mi's head, "He is a filial child." After finishing speaking, she left the hall with her hands behind her back, and Qing Wu also left with her.

Xia Mi was the only one left in the empty space.

Suddenly, as if she had been taken out, when she stood up, her legs softened and she fell to the ground.She thought that what she saw in the woods was something that only she and Mo Ya knew about, but she didn't want anyone to know about it without going out.

What if she didn't come to tell the Empress about this?

What will happen again?

She couldn't think about it.

After leaving the main hall, the empress walked towards the backyard, and said to Qing Wu as she walked: "The second child is a sincere child, filial, but he still doesn't understand people's hearts."

"Your Majesty, if you teach him more, you will understand?" Qing Wu said with a smile.

"Only you can guess." The empress also laughed.

Qing Wu hurriedly pleaded guilty, but the Empress was not annoyed, and turned to say with a gloomy expression: "Hmph, those old people, I still remember every bit of what happened back then, the cycle of cause and effect, it's finally our turn."
