Chapter 36

An attendant had already dived a little farther away, using a wooden whistle to whine like a doe, and using a birch bark whistle to imitate the chirping of a young roe deer to attract deer and roe deer.

In previous years, this trick was very effective, and it would attract some prey to take the bait, but this year, there was no movement for a long time, until the sun gradually sank to the top of the mountain over there, and Tang Tianxiao shot two hares and a small roe deer.

The others deliberately lagged behind and didn't compete with him, and they were empty-handed.

Tang Tianqi saw a wild pheasant flying by, and before he could draw his arrow, Ke Qianmei, while talking to Zhuang Bilan, had already drawn his bow and shot right at the target.

The wild pheasant naturally hung on the cute horse's head.

She smiled and said to Zhuang Bilan and the others: "The feathers of this wild pheasant are beautiful. I will ask them to make a shuttlecock for you when I return to the palace."

Tang Tianqi was a little younger, so he still had a bit of fighting spirit after all. Look at that wild pheasant, he brought his two followers and ran forward from a side road.

From then on, Tang Tianxiao didn't even hit a mouse, and even shot an elk running past him.

Zhuang Bilan kept her duty and fell behind, but Qian Mei took the opportunity to also fall behind. Although she was carrying a bow, she was chatting and laughing with Zhuang Bilan again.

Tang Tianxiao couldn't tell what was in his heart.

And Zhuang Bilan actually couldn't tell what it was like in her heart.

But Qianmei was telling him depressedly: "Think about it, how can we be as comfortable in the palace as we are on the grassland? It's hard to guess what the emperor is thinking, and I don't know how other ladies serve him."

Zhuang Bilan saw that there was a certain distance between the others and them, the corners of her lips twitched slightly, and suddenly said: "Can you really not guess what the emperor is thinking? Why do I think that you are a hundred times smarter than those queens and concubines in the palace?"

But Qianmei was startled, and felt that although his eyes were not sharp, they were strangely transparent, like a bright mirror under the moon, silently shining into her heart, revealing all the beauty and ugliness in every detail.

She was suddenly out of breath and said after a long time: "I... how can I be as good as them? They can't beat me when it comes to fighting, but they are a hundred times better than me when it comes to heart."

Zhuang Bilan said lightly: "If you don't have a heart, you can't be the first concubine brought out by the emperor; if you don't have a heart, you can't deliberately always be by my side to make the emperor lose his mind."

"What... what?"

"Don't tell me that you haven't heard of the inhumane entanglement between me and the emperor; don't tell me that you don't know that you look like Qingwu. It is impossible for the emperor to be indifferent to you, nor Maybe he will tolerate the woman he cares about approaching me again. Since ancient times, no matter whether it is a person or a thing, it is valuable only if someone competes with it. The way of the master is to go straight to the heart like a princess."

The setting sun through the forest seems to be very cold, but Qianmei's fingers feel cold for a while.

She stared at Zhuang Bilan's calm and elegant face, and stammered, "Qing...Qingwu, is that Concubine Ning Shu from Yiqing Palace back then? She and you...are really like...that in the legend..."
