The emperor’s cold eyes were a little stern when he looked at his sons.

“As princes, you’ve learned a lot of riding and archery. It’s really embarrassing for me that you guys keep on arguing! If everyone doesn’t hunt more than five prey this time, come and apologize to me after returning to the palace!”

The princes lowered their heads and agreed.

Gu Nuo’er asked softly, “Father, if I can’t hunt small animals, can I pluck five fruits for you to eat?”

The moment the emperor, who originally had a serious expression, lowered his head to look at his daughter, and revealed a deep fatherly smile.

“Father likes to eat fruits the most. The most important thing is for Nuo’er to have fun today.”

The child was overjoyed and carried the small wooden bow on her back.

Her round pink and fair face was filled with a serious expression.

She waved her small hands. “Let’s go!”

Gu Yihan smiled brightly. “Alright! Let the hunt begin.”

The guards who had been waiting for a long time sounded the drums and blew the horns.

When the birds in the forest heard the sounds, they flapped their wings and flew away, leaving behind beautiful shadows in the clear autumn sky.

Before the hunt officially began, everyone had to form teams and get the eunuch in charge to record it.

This was so that after the hunt ended, rewards would be given according to the number of prey in each group.

The emperor had already returned to the stands with his consorts and officials.

There were only people who were preparing to enter the forest staying around.

Gu Nuo’er stood beside Ye Siming. The youth was gently patting his horse.

“Elder Brother Siming.” The child waved her small hand in all seriousness.

“After my observation, most of my older brothers are in teams of three. Only Second Brother didn’t form any team but brought four experts to protect him!”

Hearing this, Ye Siming raised his eyebrows and looked up at the crowd.

None of them could fight, so there was no need to be nervous.

The child crossed her arms and puffed up her pink and fair cheeks with an analytical expression.

“Apart from hunting things yourself, the rule of the hunt is that one can also snatch the results of others. Elder Brother Siming, if you want to get first place, let’s snatch Second Brother’s prey!”

Second Brother had brought experts to protect him, so he definitely would have a good catch.

Most importantly, after Gu Nuo’er snatched Gu Zitang’s things, it’d be fine if she were to wheedle a little and coax her second brother a little after the hunt ended.

If she snatched from other older brothers and there were two to three princes in a group, then she would have to coax too many of them!

She wouldn’t be able to take care of them all!

Ye Siming sneered. “There’s no need to snatch their prey. We’ll hunt by ourselves.”

When Gu Nuo’er heard this, her eyes lit up. “Elder Brother Siming, are you very confident? That’s even better!”

As she spoke, the child sighed like an adult. “It would be great if playboy older brother was here. We can still bully him.”

Gu Nuo’er and Ye Siming looked towards the stands together.

Jiang Xiaoran was dressed in conspicuous pink and was fanning himself while talking to a few officials.

He cared about his poise the most and felt that riding a horse to hunt would only ruin his image. Therefore, he was unwilling to go down.

Jiang Xiaoran was talking to others and would turn around from time to time to look at Xie Yinxiang, who was sitting alone in the area that was catered for female guests.

However, Xie Yinxiang didn’t look at him. She only looked at Gu Nuo’er, who was in the center.

Seeing that Gu Nuo’er was also looking toward the stands, Xie Yinxiang waved her hand happily.

He mouthed encouragement.

The hunt was about to begin and Ye Siming got on the horse.

He reached out, picked up the child, and placed her before him.

Gu Yihan, who was in the stands, couldn’t stay calm anymore. “Why are they so close?”

When Noble Consort Qiao heard this, she didn’t think much of it. “It’s not safe for Nuo’er to ride a horse alone. If Marquis Yongye doesn’t hold onto her tightly, what if she falls?”

When Gu Yihan heard this, he felt that it made sense.

That faint displeasure disappeared..
