Chapter 96 The show has just begun

Mu Qingli and Bai Jing in the next tent decided to take turns guarding the tent.

Mu Qingli couldn't sleep, so he asked Bai Jing to watch over the second half of the night while he watched over the first half.

Seeing that the lights in the main account had been turned off, I felt depressed.

He stared at the darkness in a daze, quite impatient, until Bai Jing came to take over his shift. He lay on the bed and fell asleep without knowing when.

In the early morning, the sun shines through the tent.

Lu Zhanxing opened his eyes and subconsciously turned his head to look at the seat next to him.

But the eldest brother's seat was empty. I was secretly annoyed that my plan to see his sleeping face had failed. But it didn't matter, there were still two nights.

"Master, you're awake." Bai Jing came in carrying a basin of hot water.

Lu Zhanxing had no choice but to start washing up: "Where are my elder brother and A-Li?"

"Master and A'li, please go outside. The kitchen has prepared breakfast. I will go get it."

After Lu Zhanxing finished his breakfast, Lu Zhanyan and Mu Qingli came back.

"Brother Xing, did you sleep well last night?"

"Brother, I slept well."

Lu Zhanxing saw that his elder brother and Mu Qingli had dark eyes, and frowned and said, "Brother, A'li, we can't worry too much and not rest!"

Mu Qingli turned her eyes away helplessly, not wanting to look at Lu Zhanxing's radiant appearance.

However, Lu Zhanyan was somewhat helpless. He was not worried because of Yang Jingchen's appearance. He just didn't expect that his brother had such a bad sleeping posture. Not only did his body lean downwards as he slept, but he also particularly liked to hug people. He corrected her sleeping posture many times but to no avail.

This was too painful for him who had always been well-behaved. He could only get out of bed and lie on the floor all night. He prayed silently in his heart that Princess Yaoguang would sleep more gracefully, otherwise he would really rather sleep in a separate bed.

Thinking that there were still two nights left, his eyelids twitched. He had already decided to get out of bed and sleep on the floor after Xingdi fell asleep.

It also saves my younger brother from hurting his feelings.

Lu Zhanxing didn't know that she was actually despised by her idolized elder brother, who even slept on the floor last night. At this moment, he was still earnestly persuading them not to worry too much.

Lu Zhanyan did not refute: "We will set out soon. Remember, if you get separated from me, you must return to the tent immediately and not hang around outside."

Hearing this, Lu Zhanxing nodded quickly. She had no choice but to obey. In such a hunting meeting where most of the people were smart, she didn't dare to act on her own.

After a good rest, the group went out together to the stable to get their horses so that they could go up the mountain to hunt with the emperor.

On the way, they met the Yang Jingchen brothers and Mo Feiyu and his group. As soon as Mo Feiyu saw Lu Zhanxing, he stared at her. If it weren't for the gritting his teeth, Lu Zhanxing would have thought that Mo Feiyu had taken a fancy to her.

She hid behind her brother and rolled her eyes at Mo Feiyu and Yang Jingyi. Her disdainful attitude almost made Mo Feiyu and Yang Jingyi want to beat her up.

Seeing that his younger brother had provoked the young marquis again, Lu Zhanyan shook his head helplessly, but his body still honestly blocked his younger brother.

Noticing Lu Zhanyan's actions, Yang Jingchen smiled and bowed: "Greetings to Master Lu. I am Yang Jingchen, a subordinate who has just returned to Beijing to serve as the head of the Ministry of Personnel. I have long heard of Master Lu's great name. Now that I have seen him, I find that the rumors are indeed true. Master Lu is truly a man of both talent and beauty. I admire him!"

One of them was from the Ministry of Rites and the other from the Ministry of Personnel. Although their official positions were the same, the Ministry of Personnel was the head of the Six Ministries and was naturally superior.

Lu Zhanxing didn't expect that the Duke of Qing's Mansion had just colluded with the previous head of the Ministry of Personnel, and His Majesty still trusted the Duke of Qing's Mansion so much. This is paving the way for the Fourth Prince!

Up to now, Emperor Qian still believed that the Fourth Prince was really born to his beloved woman.

He even felt that he owed the Fourth Prince and cleared obstacles for him everywhere. He did not even find out whether Concubine Ru was really pushed into the water by the Imperial Concubine, but he demoted the Imperial Concubine's position and scolded the Second Prince together. He was really biased to the extreme.

It doesn't matter. This time bomb will explode at the most appropriate time. The more you dote on the Fourth Prince now, the more embarrassed you will be when the time comes.

When Lu Zhanyan heard that Yang Jingchen was about to join the Ministry of Personnel, his heart suddenly sank, but his face remained calm: "Master Yang, you are too polite. Six years ago, Master Yang was also the most outstanding runner-up, but he went to work in another place alone. This prince also admires you very much."

This time Yang Jingchen was transferred back to the capital, maybe it was Duke Qing's intention that he come back to inherit the title!

The two of them complimented each other, and Mo Feiyu secretly rolled his eyes. He hated these people who talked about meaningless topics in a pretentious manner.

Then he said to Lu Zhanxing: "Hey, do you dare to compete with me?"

"I won't compete with you, lest if I win you, I will be asked to apologize. That's really boring." Lu Zhanxing implied that he couldn't afford to lose, and would complain to His Majesty if he lost.

"you……"

Mo Feiyu was very ashamed and angry. It was not him who asked her to apologize to him last time. It was all because of that hypocritical person who meddled in other people's business.

"You don't dare to compete with the Marquis, so you don't dare to compete with me either, right?" Yang Jingyi thought that he was not afraid of Lu Zhanxing as long as he had his elder brother around.

Lu Zhanxing curled his lips in disdain: "You want me to compete, so I will. Don't I have any dignity? You want to compete with me, but I won't. What can you do to me?"

"You...you...Brother, look at her..." Yang Jingyi was so angry that he started looking for his brother.

Yang Jingchen glanced at the handsome Lu Zhanxing with a smile, and then said to Lu Zhanyan: "Prince Lu, you and I have to accompany the prince, why not let them play together!"

Lu Zhanyan immediately became alert: "No need, Ah Xing is too naughty, so as not to offend the young marquis and the young master. It's getting late, so don't delay. Goodbye!"

He took Lu Zhanxing and others and left as quickly as possible.

Seeing them leave like this, Yang Jingyi was indignant: "Brother, why did you let them leave like this?"

Yang Jingchen smiled and comforted his angry brother: "Okay, the fun has just begun, don't worry!"

When Lu Zhanxing and others arrived at the stable, the groom in charge told them that her horse had eaten something wrong and had diarrhea. They were afraid that they would not be able to ride it to go hunting today.

Lu Zhanxing's expression changed slightly: "Brother!"

Someone deliberately touched my horse. Does this mean I have to separate myself from my brother?

Lu Zhanyan and Mu Qingli looked at each other. Are they going to take action so soon?

At this time, Yang Jingchen and his companions also arrived. Seeing that they did not go to lead their horses, they asked curiously: "Master Lu, what happened?"

Asking questions knowingly!

Lu Zhanxing glared at Yang Jingchen coldly.

Lu Zhanyan's face was calm, and he replied calmly: "Nothing!"

He said to the groom, "Choose a more docile horse."

The groom responded and led out a maroon horse. Lu Zhanxing was about to take it, but Mu Qingli grabbed the reins and said, "Master, please ride my horse!"

I was afraid that someone had tampered with the horse. After all, I was skilled in martial arts, so I couldn't let Young Master Lu make any mistakes.

After that, Lu Zhanxing rode Mu Qingli's horse, and the others also led their horses and mounted them.

The group left in a mighty manner.

Yang Jingyi said dissatisfiedly: "Brother..."

"Don't worry," Yang Jingchen asked his brothers to be patient and let them go to get their horses.

The hunting ground for the autumn hunt stretched to the middle of the mountain, surrounded by fences to prevent people from falling off the mountain. When they set out, Emperor Qian, who was sitting on the Ferghana horse, smiled and said, "Today is the autumn hunt. Both men and women can hunt. The first three who get the most prey will be rewarded handsomely!"

"I heard that a white deer appeared in the forest. If anyone can hunt the white deer, I can give him a promise. As long as it is not treasonous, I will be satisfied."

Everyone was eager to try after hearing this. Whether they would be promoted or not depended on the Autumn Hunt...
