Reborn I want to be a giant

Chapter 165 Keeping Everyone Waiting For A Long Time
Early the next morning, Xu Ye was dug up from the bed by Xu Ze, reluctantly washed and changed clothes, put on armor, carried a bow and arrow and Japanese sword on his back, and set off with Xu Ze.Today is a big day for the hunt and everyone gets to be there.

Different from the treatment on the road, Xu Ye was welcomed by the boys as soon as he appeared. They were all sons of the Xungui family, and they knew each other since they were young. Naturally, they were more cordial than those young generals who had lived in the barracks for many years.

"The beauty is still you, Xu Liumei. Look, I said that you have such a reputation, and there are daughters from famous families who want to marry you."

"You didn't see it just now, those people with eyes higher than the top are all glancing here."

"Oh, it really is worth ten thousand pieces of gold."

Xu Ye was trying his bow, without squinting, "Superficial, I am the number one scholar."

"Meiliu, you have to give brother some confidence, look at those..."

"That's right, who do you look down on?"

Xu Ye went as they expected, a group of young men and women gathered around Emperor Chengqi, some of them were the young generals who came with them, and Zhao Yanran and his wife were also there.

It seems to be talking about something interesting, it is very lively, like celebrating a birthday.Presumably this is what Xu Ze said about youthful vigor, Xu Ye's thoughts somehow deviated from the point.

After the hilarity, Emperor Chengqi was also looking at Xu Ye's group of brats, and said to the parents next to him: "The one who smashed someone's painting boat; the one who led people around the imperial historian's family to force him to marry his daughter; the one who got drunk and bet on swimming in the moat and almost got stabbed by iron." Those who were tied into a sieve; those who entered the Imperial College three times and left the Imperial College three times...the ones who climbed the roof of the Imperial Academy to sleep...Okay, okay, we got together again." He was disgusted and helpless.

Xu Ze looked up at the sky with several clan relatives and ministers, pretending not to understand.

"Did you take part in the drunken bet?" Emperor Chengqi turned to look at the seventh prince.

"I know I was wrong." Zhao Yanjin made such a mistake since she was a child, and was dragged out twice in three days to flog her corpse.

The excitement is enough, and the officials of the Qin Tianjian said that the auspicious time has come.Emperor Chengqi lit the bonfire, and this year's autumn hunting officially began.

The young general's team had the largest number of people, because many girls also followed them.Since ancient times, heroes and beauties have been two groups that are prone to mutual affection, so this picture is not uncommon.

Xu Ze looked at his son's previous position, and his brothers were urging Xu Ye not to dawdle, otherwise there would be no bird left for them.

Xu Ze hadn't rode or shot for more than ten years, and was not very interested, so he drank milk wine and gossiped with several courtiers in the camp.The forest was filled with the sounds of finding and driving prey, one after another, obviously someone was lucky.

Emperor Chengqi and his party came back first, followed by several princes and princesses, and not long after, the courtiers also came back one after another.

Obviously, the big guys just mean it, and it's just tacit understanding.

Neither the Young General's No. [-] team nor Xu Ye's No. [-] team came back, and those who were idle began to talk about the minor conflicts among the children.Worried about being young and energetic, you will lose your temper and cause trouble for the other party.

The more I talked about it, the more I felt that this situation was very likely to happen, and Xu Ye was unfortunately recognized as a troublemaker because of his bad deeds in the past.If anyone is bullied, he must be among them, either taking the lead or following the crowd.

In this way, more than half an hour later, more than 20 people appeared on the mountain road, both men and women, and it was only when they got closer that they were the young general and ladies from various families.

"What happened?" Some elders stepped forward to be concerned.

The two were injured, and judging from the injury, it didn't look like they were attacked by wild beasts in the mountains.

Everyone looked a little embarrassed, one of them was limping, refused to help, glared at the others, and then went to the rear medical camp on his own.

After another three quarters, Xu Ye and his party slowly appeared on the hillside.The horse's back was full of prey, and the boys could only lead the horse and walk back here slowly.Seeing that they were about to reach the camp, they suddenly stopped moving again.They gathered together and discussed something, and finally everyone took off the prey from the horses, seemed to be counting carefully, and then redistributed, and then happily set off again.

"The harvest is good, son." Uncle Yongshou was indescribably happy to see his youngest son come back with more than a dozen large and small prey.It seems that today is the highlight of his son's life.

Xu Ze saw his son leading two horses around to the imperial kitchen, so he followed him.

"I've bandaged the deer leg, you guys feed it for me, don't let it die. I want the skin for the rest..."

The royal chefs nodded one after another, reassuring him that they would take good care of the deer.

"You hunted those outside too, right?" Xu Ze touched the back of the deer, and the deer turned away in aggrieved manner.

Xu Ye was noncommittal.

"The two injured people are related to you?"

The imperial chef placed the dead prey on the large chopping board, and was about to cut the knife. The father and son walked a few steps away to avoid the meat being splashed later.

Xu Ye washed his hands carefully, "Zhou's boy helped me out on the road, but was squeezed out. Someone tried to punish him just now. I happened to be nearby..."

Xu Ze held his hands behind his back, "This matter is not so easy to settle." These young generals seem to have a good relationship, but they also represent their respective families, and it is hard to say how much sincerity they have for each other.

Although these people look down on Xu Ye, they have different circles of interest, and it's not time to target Xu Ye, but it's rare for the Zhou family to find a young military general who is willing to die, and they are "outsiders", so naturally they won't Miss this great opportunity.

"Do you want to hold a funeral here?" Don't look back and lose your life and put your family's future on the line, "If you want me to say, it's been a long time, I'm free."

Xu Ze smiled, "That's the reason."

The bonfire banquet is a common practice. The imperial chef makes all kinds of delicacies from the prey that everyone has hunted, paired with fine wine brought from the capital, and there are dancers to add to the fun. The atmosphere of the whole night banquet is constantly rising with the autumn-like skirts.

Xu Ye sat far away, and wanted to be alone by himself, but his cronies couldn't bear the limelight of young generals, so they moved their meat plates and wine over.So it became a small group again.

Everyone persuaded each other to drink, played small games, and each of them sat upright and yelled. They were warned by their parents several times for being too loud.But they are all at the young age, so it's strange that they can control them.

The Young General's side is also full of young people, but no one knows how to play, and it is rare for the girls to come out, so naturally they want to go wherever there is excitement.The brave ones really went there together, but they were driven back by a pair of brothers, saying that they were in the way and liked to sue.Wronged the girl.

"Why don't you say they are monks of wine and meat?" Miss Song's family wiped the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief.

"What is the allusion to this name?" Murong Hui, who just moved to the capital from northern Xinjiang at the beginning of the year, is full of curiosity about everything.

Weng Qihe used to have a temperament of stepping on the ground. The Murong family has been stationed in northern Xinjiang for generations, and Murong Hui was born in northern Xinjiang. This time, she was specially sent to the capital. It was the emperor's intention to reward the Murong family with a marriage.Everyone said that Murong Hui might be the prince's side concubine.

"Not married at all."

The girls laughed together.

In the past two days, Murong Hui has always been indescribably anxious, happy and sad, and she doesn't know what's wrong with her.

"Then Mr. Xu is not engaged either?" blurted out.

Weng Qihe and the girls around him were a little embarrassed by her question. Ning Ying sat nearby, and mentioning Xu Ye in front of this person was equivalent to offending her.But Weng Qihe changed his mind, and felt that Murong Hui is the future prince's side concubine. After the prince succeeds to the throne, she will be a noble concubine. Ning Ying's future is not as good as Murong Hui's.So she let go of her courage and said to Murong Hui: "I haven't heard that there is an engagement, but it is rumored that I have taken a concubine."

Weng Qihe is Weng Qimin's cousin, and the relationship with Weng Qimin is not considered close, but they don't have any enemies, and they can play together when they meet each other during the holidays.

Murong Hui was a little disappointed, she stopped talking and lowered her head to savor the wine carefully.But the girls next to her started talking about Xu Ye's "concubine".

"It's Gu Changyan."

"Oh, my surname is no longer Gu, but Cheng Fu."

"I heard that Jinling was in a mess. She returned to Beijing a while ago. The manager of the tavern has been changed, and the storyteller from the Jinling tavern has also been brought back."

"What is she doing back here? Isn't it good to be in Jiangnan?" Everyone has heard rumors about her more or less in the past two years.Especially the members of the Gu family, whenever something bad happens, everyone will discuss what happened to the younger brothers and sisters back then.

"If I were her, I would never come back. I don't know if I will die..." The last sentence was said very softly, only to ensure that Weng Qihe could hear it.

Everyone looked at Prince Rui and his wife who were also sitting nearby, and they all understood.

Murong Hui also became curious about this "concubine" Xu Ye, she didn't care on the surface, but she didn't hear a word.But they were talking vigorously, ignoring Ning Ying's expression.

"Xu Chilie only stayed in the Hanlin Academy for a long time, and he went to Jinling to become a thankless acquaintance. My father said that the place in the south of the Yangtze River is the place where the Tu people have the final say, and the parents and officials have changed one group after another. Xu Who would believe that Chi Lie didn't go for Cheng Fu?"

Murong Hui felt sour, "Then...that Miss Cheng is a beautiful and talented person?"

"Well, it's normal, but she can write story books. She is the chief writer of "White Crane Daoist" and "Old Mountain Chronicle" and recently "Second Miss". When I go out to make friends, not many people really know her, and almost rely on hearsay and self-judgment for her appearance.

"No, I've seen her before, at the spring banquet...she was dull and honest, but she was not bad-looking, and their brothers and sisters were born well."

Weng Qihe patted the other person's hand, and looked around warily, "You are crazy to mention back then, where is this place?"

Suddenly, Ning Ying stood up, startling the girls. She glanced at the crowd with an unfriendly expression, and bit her lips, as if she had been greatly humiliated.Everyone thought she was about to explode and overwhelm others, but she strode towards Xu Ye.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the girls followed one after another.Some wanted to watch the fun, and some were worried that she would get into trouble impulsively, make things big, and implicate themselves.The movement was so loud that it startled everyone else at the bonfire banquet.

Xu Ye was not considered a central figure among this gang of cronies, so he just watched them play, and he didn't talk much as usual, hiding his clumsiness when he should, showing off when he should, and grasping his proportions properly.

"Oh, I'm scared to death, young master. What are you doing here? Get lost." A little fat man held cards with both hands and rushed away impatiently.He pounced ten times in a row, and finally came across a good move. At this juncture, he would be in a hurry with anyone who made him unable to win.

The girls headed by Ning Ying directly blocked their light, so that the boys sitting in a circle on the ground had to raise their heads.

"What advice do you have?" Duke Jing stood up.

　I'm really sorry for the delay because I've been really busy recently.
