Foster son and husband

Chapter 282 Hunting
Autumn is refreshing, the blue sky is like washing, the green lake under the blue sky and white clouds is like a piece of emerald inlaid among the high mountains, the green pines and cypresses, the red maple forest, and the golden unknown leaves, which bloom proudly without fear of frost and dew. The purple flowers are like a Western oil painting, with bright and colorful colors, which is breathtaking. This is the wonderful scene that Meimei saw after climbing over the mountain ridge with everyone. She was admiring and admiring. Mrs. Changle Hou pointed to a gap on the other side of the lake and said: " Over there used to be an inaccessible big forest, where black bears, wolves, tigers and leopards haunt!"

Meimei curled her lips: "These men are too dishonest. They brought us here, but they refused to take them into the forest. They formed a team and ran away!"

Mrs. Changlehou smiled and said: "Is it because I am afraid that I will lose you again like last year? Weiyuanhou's distraught appearance frightened my husband. He said that he had never seen Weiyuanhou panic before. You lost it, and if you can’t find it, you will end up with a quarrel—I didn’t expect you to marry your in-laws later! Well, my cousin didn’t disappoint you, did she? It didn’t take long to get married, it’s really great!”

Meimei nodded again and again: "Jingyun is a good sibling, very capable, and can help me as soon as she gets married."

"That's right, she has a big family and a big career, she is the eldest daughter, she has been learning since she was a child!"

Madam Hou of Changle looked back at a group of people on the rugged mountain road at the foot of the ridge. Concubine Shu and Su De were supported and carried by the maids and eunuchs. Frowning:

"My husband and I have hunted with the emperor before, and we have never seen him bring a concubine. The emperor is very competitive. Whether it is hunting in a team or alone, he always wants to fight for the top. He moves quickly and does not like to be dragged down. This time I brought Concubine Shu here, it seems that I love her so much, I can’t bear to part for a day... It’s only hard for us female relatives, we could have gone forward to shoot and capture a few fat rabbits and pheasants, and ran to the boss From afar, right now I'm just going to accompany the imperial concubine on a tour, if I had known this, I wouldn't have come!"

Meimei also said sullenly: "Yes, if I knew she was coming, I wouldn't come either!"

Lin Runan went up the mountain ridge, ran over a few steps, sat on the big blue stone beside them, panting slightly: "You two, hurry up, don't wait for the empress and the princess, do you want to scold me?"

Meimei snorted and laughed: "It would be nice if I could walk up by myself and keep the guards to keep them from slipping down the mountain road. What else do you want? You can scold me if you want!"

Lin Runan smiled and said: "There are more than a dozen foreign wives who came out to hunt this time, and most of them have hunting experience. More than 40 guards have stayed behind, and some of the imperial guards are guarding at the foot of the mountain. We can divide ourselves into two groups. The first group, led by Mrs. Changle Hou, hunted hares and pheasants in the nearby short mountains and shallow forests, the concubine Shu and Su De are weak, just play by the lake!"

"Really? Who said that?"

"Of course it's true, the words from Chief Ji, the emperor's side!"

Lin Runan said: "Ask who is willing to go hunting in the woods, and you two will take it along with ten guards, shall we? The rest are afraid that they will be too tired to stay with the empress and the princess. I will stay and be them." The leader of this team!"

Meimei was overjoyed at first, but was taken aback when she heard the words: "You? Why? Don't you want to go hunting in the mountains?"

Lin Runan glanced at her: "I think so, but I'm the princess, so I have to accompany Concubine Shu and the princess, right? Otherwise, you stay and I go?"

"Oh forget it, I'll follow Mrs. Changle Hou to hunt hares, you... Be your virtuous princess!"

Without waiting for Concubine Shu and Su De to come up, the foreign wives sitting nearby responded to Mrs. Changlehou's call one after another. For a while, they wanted to follow them all. Lin Runan said whatever he wanted, but at last five or six foreign wives were willing to stay. I will accompany Concubine Shu and the princess.

When the afterglow of the setting sun illuminated the sky brilliantly, Meimei and Chang Lehou returned victoriously with the women's hunting team. The main task of the ten guards was to follow and protect the imperial wives, and they could not shoot the prey with their hands. They carried large and small trophies, and achieved outstanding results. Among them, there was a wild boar weighing more than a hundred catties, which was shot and killed with the help of the guards.

The men also returned to the camp at the same time. Headed by the emperor, they were all in good spirits and high spirits. It seemed that they had gained a lot. Sure enough, behind the team, the imperial guards carried their prey and sent them back continuously.

There were countless tigers and leopards, wild goats, wild deer, hares and pheasants shot dead. Meimei ran to meet Xu Junying. Xu Junying held her hand with a smile and said softly:
"I'm sorry! Afraid of accidents, I temporarily decided not to bring female relatives..."

Meimei smiled: "We also went to the mountains and caught a lot of prey. The first dish of dinner will be brought by our girls!"

"It's amazing, what did you hit?"

"Hmm... I caught a pheasant!"

Meimei is sorry, but her shooting skills are terrible, and she didn't hit anything. She just picked up prey for Mrs. Changlehou. When she was shooting wild boars, she was stopped by several guards, but the mountain chicken that looked like a reed chicken The chicken was indeed pounced on by her with the help of Mrs. Changle Hou.

Seeing her lowering her head, Xu Junying guessed what was going on, laughed loudly, and beckoned to Baoju, who was carrying a fiery red fox on his shoulders, Xu Junying said, "I caught it, and I'll give it to you." !"

Meimei was overwhelmed with surprise, stretched out her hand to caress the fur that was as soft as satin, bright as fire and without any impurities, and said with a smile: "Thank you husband, I like it so much!"

Not far away, the emperor comforted Concubine Shu, who had slipped into his arms and acted like a baby: "My dear concubine, that was called by Marquis Weiyuan, and it was naturally given to his wife. We can't snatch her away, right?"

"No, your majesty, I've wanted fiery red fur for a long time. Look how good that fur is. It's never been seen in the palace. It's rare to see it! Your majesty, just let Ji Qing talk about it!"

"It's not that good. It would be okay if Meimei didn't see it, but now it's all in her hands... She will hate me if she steals people's love."

"Give her ten guts and she wouldn't dare! Your Majesty, I want it!"

"Well, Concubine Ai!"

The stunning fiery red fox not only attracted Concubine Shu's scorching gaze, Su De also came out, she walked over directly, put her face on the fox's fur, rubbed her eyes closed, then raised her head, admiring her with her phoenix eyes open. Said softly to Xu Junying:
"Weiyuanhou is really amazing. This is Firefox, which is rare in a hundred years. You caught it!"

Meimei smiled and said: "If the princess likes it, I will give it to you!"

Su De was startled, and then exulted: "Really? Thank you Madam Weiyuanhou!"

"Meimei! I'm sorry princess, this Firefox..."

Xu Junying thought that Meimei was afraid of Princess Sude, so she wanted to protect her behind her, but Meimei held his hand and pinched it lightly, and said with a smile:

"Of course it's true! The princess is a heavenly girl, with snow-skinned beauty and a peerless beauty. She is worthy of this Firefox fur. I sincerely give it to the princess!"

Su Decai didn't care that Xu Junying and Meimei were clasping four hands, but also stretched out his own hand, and said half anxiously:
"Madam Marquis Weiyuan has always been straightforward and never breaks her word!"

Seeing Su De entangled Xu Junying's hand, Meimei felt very uncomfortable, and ordered: "Baoju, send Firefox to the princess tent immediately!"

"No no, no need!"

Su De agreed, and waved with a smile on his face, and someone came up to take the Firefox:

"Thank you! Mrs. Marquis Weiyuan is really different from ordinary women, Su De remembers your affection!"

Seeing Sude leaving happily, Xu Junying said anxiously: "Meimei, don't you like it very much? It's really hard to meet such a pure-haired fox. I know that the emperor loves Concubine Shu and follows her in everything. He refused to take the initiative to present it to the emperor, and intended to bring it back to you, but you gave it to her!"

Meimei took a look twice, stretched out her index finger to smooth Xu Junying's frown, and said:
"It's just a fox. In our hometown, there are many of them! And I just like it. I don't have to wear it. I always feel itchy when the animal fur is attached to my body. What I value is my husband's love for me. I have already realized that this Will suffice!"

"The truth?"

The corner of Xu Junying's lips curled up, and she also curled up a finger and tapped on her forehead: "You're coaxing me again with your sweet words? Tell me, what the hell are you trying to do?"

Meimei touched the place where he had knocked, and immediately a big palm rubbed it for her. Meimei smiled and said softly:
"Didn't you see that Concubine Shu is tired of the emperor over there, pointing fingers, wishing to drag the emperor over to snatch the Firefox? Seeing how the emperor looks like, maybe she will really ask for her, can you not give me? You can rely on it." Your majesty is on good terms with you, and he will not give it to you, but he must feel uncomfortable. I know what kind of person Concubine Shu is. Now that the empress avoids her, why should we bother with her? Why don’t we give it to Su De? The second time Huangzhuang escaped from danger, it was Princess Qi who helped you. King Qi knew how to protect his wife no matter how far-fetched he was, and Su De protected King Qi. As a result, both brothers and sisters were severely scolded by the emperor. This Concubine Shu , it should be made by Su De to please the emperor... Let’s give Su De the Firefox. First, Su De is more qualified than Concubine Shu. If Concubine Shu wants to be jealous, go to Su De. Second, I hope to associate with Su De in the future If she can show some sincerity, if it can help Song Jiulang leave the princess mansion, why not use the dim sum machine!"

Xu Junying gently hugged her: "Meimei, you gave Ruixue to Shan Yong as your wife, Song Jiu, let me find a way!"

"No! You don't understand. You can't be hasty about this kind of thing. Song Jiulang's family has old and young. His wife and son have been waiting for five years. He wanted to leave the capital and go home, but Sude liked Song Jiulang very much and refused to let him go easily. This is where it gets tricky..."

Bai Zhan came running from a distance, bowed and said: "Master, Young Madam, the seats over there have been paved and all are seated. Your Majesty is waiting for the seats to open!"

Xu Junying raised his eyebrows: "So fast?"

Bai Zhan looked at Meimei, laughed and said: "Tiger meat and leopard meat are not ready yet, the emperor said, thanks to the girls today, there is no need to wait hungry."

Meimei pulled Xu Junying: "Let's go, I'm hungry! Aren't you hunting bears? Where are the bears?"

Before Xu Junying could answer, Bai Zhan replied: "Young madam, black bear meat is not tasty, I shot three black bears today, they were too fat, so I didn't take them back, but I brought back the bear's paws, bear gall, and bear skin !"

"Really? Great!"

The couple walked in front, Bao Ju pulled Bai Zhan hard, and glared at him: "You are the only talker! I have been here for a long time without saying a word, and when you come and chatter, you take away so many conversations from my master. Young Madam likes to tell you?"

Bai Zhan scratched his head: "I, I was so busy that I fainted!"

"Why are you dizzy? You used to talk too much, but it's not like this. After marrying Cuisi and going home, you have become noisy!"

"What are you talking about?"

"Didn't you hear clearly?"

The two wrestled into a ball. If Meimei turned her head at this time, she must be inexplicable, and she couldn't figure out the reason for their fight.

　Well don't shoot me, Thunder. . .
