Chapter 364
"Shut up!"
On the high platform, the emperor suddenly slammed the wine glass beside him. The power in his eyes was like a mountain, covering the entire sky as it spread out. Instantly, all the people on the field kneeled on the ground as they fearfully shouted, "Calm down, your majesty!"
Only then did Meng Yanran realize what she had said. She wanted to open her mouth and beg for mercy, but she was intimidated by the Emperor's rage. Her eyes rolled up and she fainted. The emperor walked down from the stage and looked at Meng Yanran as if she was looking at a dead object, "Meng Yanran was rude to the royal family, and she was sentenced to death! The children of Meng Yu are undisciplined, the house is not strict, the top was taken off, and the flower feathers were not used for five years. Even my own daughter was not taught well, so I can be at ease and hand over the imperial court's matters …
For you? "You all..."
"Your Majesty," Grand Princess Yi De walked down from the high platform, stopping the furious emperor. "Your Majesty, a good dinner is about to begin." Your Majesty, "Princess Yi De walked down the high platform, stopping the furious emperor.
Grand Princess Yi De looked at King Yue and then looked at Mu Yunyao, who was standing by the side with her head lowered.
Even though Grand Princess Yi De had persuaded the Emperor, everyone was still trembling with fear, fearing that the wrong words would anger the Emperor. It wasn't until the Emperor had lightly ordered his subjects to become prey that he became slightly more interested.
Su Qingwu hurriedly stood up and said, "It's all thanks to you, my lords."
"Not bad, you've also won first place in the past few years. This year's prey seems to be even more numerous than the previous years. I believe that your riding and shooting skills have improved. I remember that your swordsmanship is also not bad."
The eyes of Su Wenyuan and his wife, who were sitting in their seats, lit up at the same time. Previously, the Emperor had treated the Su Clan coldly and allowed Shen Bingshu to investigate.
Su Qingwu took the long sword from a nearby guard, then cupped his hands and bowed towards the Emperor and the Grand Princess Yi. "This humble subject is making a fool of himself."
Su Qingwu was extremely proficient in swordsmanship, and was able to move around as he pleased. Under the light of the night fire, the long sword in his hand was like a swimming dragon, causing silver light to shine wherever it went.
The long sword sliced through the dark night with a whistling sound. Waves of cold light and peerless sharpness were released from it. His moves were quick and slow, like thunder that had been retracted from its rage, like the clear light of the river!
The crowd was filled with amazement, all of them praising Su Qingwu for being the most talented youth in the world. She truly deserved her reputation.
The emperor's expression became a lot happier as well, as if he had tossed the unhappiness from before to the back of his mind. "Not bad."
"royal father," a light voice rang out, only to see Sixth Princess Ning Huai Yang standing up, his eyes shining as he cupped his fists, "Royal father, a few days ago, I also learned a few moves from the master who taught martial arts, I would like to compete with Lord Su."
"You?" The Emperor smiled, then shook his head. "With your kung fu skills, don't make things difficult for Su Qingwu."
"Father, I am your daughter. How can you help him? I want to show him that I'm not one of those embroidered pillows."
The Emperor doted heavily on the Sixth Princess, and seeing how persistent she was, he could only say to Su Qingwu, "Why don't you accompany the Sixth Princess for a few more moves, and then stop."
"Yes."
Mu Yunyao's eyes were filled with smiles. She had originally thought that with Meng Yanran's interference, she would not be able to witness this good show. She hadn't expected that the Sixth Princess of Huai Yang would still seek out Su Qingwu. In the middle of the open space, Su Qingwu remained on the defensive, thinking that she could deal with the Sixth Princess. In the middle of the open space, Su Qingwu remained on the defensive, thinking that she could fight the Sixth Princess, but she didn't expect that the Sixth Princess could stay on the defensive.
He bowed to her, "This humble subject has offended you. Please forgive me, Princess."
The Sixth Princess's eyes lit up when she saw Su Qingwu. With a blush on her face, she stomped her feet and walked to the side of the Emperor on the stage: "Imperial Father, after seeing Lord Su today, I know that the master who taught me martial arts is not good. I want to learn from Lord Su."
"Don't mess around. Su Qingwu is a first-tier imperial bodyguard, and won't be playing with you." The Sixth Princess couldn't help but roll her eyes when she heard the Emperor's tone, "Royal father, are you going to let Lord Su teach me how to run the hunting grounds? In the past two days, there were no official matters that needed to be settled, right? Besides, Lord Su had obtained the top position today, so it was likely that he was very tired. It just so happened that …
"While taking a break, you'll teach me swordsmanship."
The emperor's forehead twitched. "This …"
"Father, you doted on your daughter the most. When your daughter has mastered her martial arts, you can display your skills and defeat the three royal brothers and seize the first place to let Father see."
The emperor couldn't help but chuckle. "Your tone is really not small. Good, then I'll agree. By the end of the Autumn Hunt, it'll be a good lesson if you can kill one or two rabbits."
The redness on the Sixth Princess' cheeks deepened. "Father, just wait and see. I will definitely learn well, so you won't underestimate me."
The banquet ended peacefully. No one mentioned Meng Yanran and Meng Yu anymore. Even their tents were arranged for his use.
Mu Yunyao slightly lowered her head and followed beside King Yue, arriving at an empty spot at the edge of the camp before stopping in her tracks. "Fourth Master, thank you very much for saving me today."
Yue Yang turned his head to look at Mu Yunyao. In the darkness of the night, he could not see her expression, and could only vaguely make out the outline of her eyes. Those eyes were always clear and clear, even brighter than the stars in the sky.
"I just sprinkled a bit of snake luring fragrance on her clothes, I didn't expect it to be such a coincidence, it actually allowed the snake to burrow into her clothes."
Yue Yang couldn't help but laugh softly, this was just like how she always did, whatever revenge she had, it was immediately avenged: "Did you guess that it was her who had people place poisonous snakes in your tent?"
"I didn't know before, when I was packing up, Jin Lan picked up an earpiece. It was exactly the same as the one worn by the maid next to her. I saw it once, and with a slight impression, I guessed that she was wearing it."
The night was dark, and King Yue's voice was especially clear. It slowly flowed into his ears, as if it was able to captivate others.
Mu Yunyao slightly moved a step. Her heart was not at peace: "Fourth Master, you took action to save me today. Will it bring about trouble?"
Yue Yang lightly shook his head, afraid that Mu Yunyao wouldn't be able to see it clearly. He then continued to explain, "There won't be any trouble."
Mu Yunyao fell silent. After the defenses in her heart had weakened, she deliberately overlooked a lot of questions, the most important of which was the difference in status between her and the Titan King.
Even if Yue Yang was not favoured, he was still the prince of the current dynasty. His abilities, tenacity, bearing and magnanimity … He wasn't any weaker than the other princes. He was just like a bright pearl covered in dust. One day, his gray veil would fall off and he would bloom with a unique grace. At that time, where would she be? Meng Yangran was right about one thing. Her background was low. No matter how much money she earned, it wouldn't change the fact that she was born in the countryside.
