Another morning.

Gu Qingqiu was sitting on horseback. She was riding a white horse today, wearing a blue riding outfit, her pretty face was even more gentle under the morning sun.

After seeing her, a look of amazement flashed across Chu Yunyi's eyes.

"Qingqiu, you are so beautiful today."

Chu Yunyi rode by Gu Qingqiu's side, the two were very close, and Gu Qingqiu could clearly hear what he said.

The person in front of her was her sweetheart, and they had already made a marriage contract, but Gu Qingqiu was still as shy as before, with two blushes on her face, she shook her head slowly.

"Your Highness, there are still so many people here."

Seeing her like this, Chu Yunyi's heart became even hotter.

He took Gu Qingqiu's hand openly, and rubbed it for a long while, when his eyes looked at Gu Qingqiu, there was a different meaning, which made Gu Qingqiu blush and heartbeat.

But Gu Qingqiu was reluctant to shake off Chu Yunyi's hand, blushing, carefully hooked Chu Yunyi's palm with her little finger, and whispered: "Your Highness, let's go to the forest."

"There's no one in the woods."

Chu Yunyi's throat tightened, and his eyes looking at Gu Qingqiu became even more fiery.

He raised his whip almost instantly, and was about to walk into the woods.

But just when the two were about to set off, there was a sound of hurried hooves, and the maroon horse happened to stop beside them, and Jiang Ruzhu smiled at them.

"Cousin, where are we going today?"

The appearance of Jiang Ruzhu disrupted Chu Yunyi's plan.

He glanced at this innocent cousin, and rarely showed some displeasure: "Why don't you follow cousin and the others?"

When Jiang Ruzhu heard the impatience in his words, her eyes immediately turned red: "Brother, they despise me, don't you even despise me, cousin? But you don't despise Miss Gu."

Chu Yunyi's face was slightly cold, dissatisfied with her belittling Gu Qingqiu, but what she said next made Chu Yunyi unable to refute.

"In terms of riding and archery, I am better than Miss Gu." Jiang Ruzhu lowered her head aggrievedly, "With me taking care of her, maybe my cousin can hunt more prey, and I will be able to catch more prey at the end of the count." Overwhelm the second prince."

Hearing this, Chu Yunyi's eyes darkened.

It is true that he has been hanging out with Gu Qingqiu for the past few days, and he has always been on the periphery. He doesn't have many prey in his hands, let alone those large prey.

Gu Qingqiu's gentle smile froze for a moment, but soon returned to normal.

She smiled lightly, and affectionately brushed off the non-existent dust on Chu Yunyi's shoulders: "Your Highness, Second Miss Jiang is right, you are the leader every autumn hunting, and you can't fall behind this time."

"Why don't you just let me and Miss Jiang Er hang around here, and you go hunting inside."

"I'm worried." Chu Yunyi made no secret of his concern for Gu Qingqiu.

Jiang Ruzhu on the side clenched her teeth and grabbed the rein fiercely, not letting her face show jealousy just now: "Cousin, don't worry, I will definitely take care of Miss Gu."

Gu Qingqiu smiled softly: "I have your guards by my side, and it's on the outskirts of the forest, so how could I be in danger? Besides, there is Miss Jiang Er, who is excellent in archery, so don't worry, Your Highness. gone."

She persuaded softly, Xiaozhi finally relaxed Chu Yunyi's attitude with emotion and reason.

Seeing that she tried her best to hide but still showed some traces of reluctance, Chu Yunyi squeezed his hands tightly, he hugged Gu Qingqiu heavily, and then looked at Jiang Ruzhu.

"Ruzhu, I will leave my cousin to take care of you."

Hearing this address, Jiang Ruzhu's forced smile almost collapsed.

She quickly lowered her head and whispered: "Cousin, don't worry, I will take good care of her!"

She said the last sentence very seriously.

But Chu Yunyi didn't notice anything unusual, he patted Gu Qingqiu's hand comfortingly again, left most of the guards behind, and then rode away.

As soon as Chu Yunyi left, the smile on Jiang Ruzhu's face could no longer be maintained.

She swung the horsewhip, and the long whip brushed across Gu Qingqiu's cheeks, almost scratching that beautiful face.

"Oh!" Jiang Ruzhu pretended to be panicked, and hurried forward, staring at Gu Qingqiu's face over and over again: "Miss Gu must not leave scars on this face, otherwise, how can you How about winning over my cousin's heart?"

Her tone was sarcasm, mocking Gu Qingqiu for serving others with color.

Gu Qingqiu also understood her words, covered half of his cheeks, and wept softly.

"I am fine."

She took a deep breath, and the anger on her face gradually calmed down, not daring to get angry at Jiang Ruzhu.

Seeing this, Jiang Ruzhu was even more proud.

But the guards who were left behind by Chu Yunyi already had anger on their faces.

A sneer flashed across Gu Qingqiu's eyes, idiot, he didn't know that Chu Yunyi left behind so many people, not only to protect her safety, but also to guard against this stupid cousin.

As smart as Chu Yunyi, how could he fail to see what Jiang Ruzhu was thinking?

It's just that he still needs the Jiang family, and he can't tear himself apart with the Jiang family for a stupid woman.

Gu Qingqiu looked at the proud Jiang Ruzhu, the darkness in his eyes flashed.

Just like Gu Ning, these people are aloof and never know how to sympathize with a person like her who has a bad background and can only do her best to climb up step by step.

Such people should be damned!

Jiang Ruzhu knew that she was too angry to speak out, so not only did she not restrain herself, she intensified it instead: "Miss Gu, this is your first time to come to Autumn Hunting, right? That's right, based on your father's official position, if you can't climb up to your cousin, you just I am afraid that I will never be able to participate in such a grand event in my life.”

"Yes." Gu Qingqiu lowered his head and said in a low voice, "Thanks to Your Highness, I just mentioned it a little bit, and His Highness put the uncle's name into the list."

Her words froze the smile on Jiang Ruzhu's face.

Seeing Gu Qingqiu's delicate and helpless appearance, she felt very angry in her heart.

It's fine for Gu Ning to get past her, but how dare such a lowly woman dare to go against her?

Today, she will let this woman know that not all men can make her want to!

"Today I'm going to hunt two red foxes." Jiang Ruzhu commanded Chu Yunyi's guards high above, "You all follow me."

But these guards acted as if they didn't hear them, they stood by Gu Qingqiu's side one by one, and didn't move half a step away.

Although she had expected this situation long ago, Jiang Ruzhu secretly gritted her silver teeth when she saw it.

Thinking of her plan, she suppressed her anger and said to Gu Qingqiu: "Miss Gu, you won't let me go hunting in the woods alone, will you? If something happens to me, you can't afford it."

Seeing her domineering appearance, Banxia was so angry that she wanted to argue.

But Gu Qingqiu stopped her, and showed a beautiful smile towards Jiang Ruzhu: "Second Miss Jiang, don't be angry, these guards only follow His Highness's orders, they don't want to leave me."

"How about this, I will accompany you to hunt in the woods, so that they can protect both of us."

Gu Qingqiu's words were very considerate, but to Jiang Ruzhu's ears, it made her feel sick like eating a fly.

However, that was her plan for today, even though she was dissatisfied with Gu Qingqiu in every possible way, she could only swallow it.

She clamped the horse's belly coldly, and ran towards the forest at the head of the horse.

Gu Qingqiu followed behind, and a large number of guards followed into the woods.

As soon as they saw the two leave, the two groups of people who followed him went back to report.

……

"Master, Second Miss Jiang went to look for the third prince and the others again today."

Chunyu walked into the tent, and told Gu Ning the scene outside the woods vividly.

"Really?" Gu Ning propped his chin, his clear eyes flickered slightly, "So, Gu Qingqiu was bullied by her very badly?"

Hearing this, Chunyu shook her head: "My servant thinks that she is deliberately trying to lure Second Miss Jiang into action. Didn't she do the same to you before? I saw that the guards had already written this down and said no." You'll have to file a complaint afterwards."

Gu Ning glanced at her appreciatively: "You're smart, you can see Gu Qingqiu's strategy right away."

Gu Qingqiu is the best at pretending to be pitiful and selling misery.

It's like being in Gu's mansion, where Gu Zhiyuan can always favor her, and there are several conflicts with himself before, even if it is hindered by the marriage contract, Chu Yunyi dare not blatantly favor her, but he will try his best to appease her afterwards she.

Perhaps this is the unique aura of the white lotus heroine!

Gu Ning sighed quietly, and stretched lazily: "Let's go, let's go and see the excitement."

Chunyu was surprised: "You want to follow?"

"I can't miss such excitement." Gu Ning said solemnly, "If I don't go and see it, I won't feel at ease."

"But this servant saw that Miss Jiang's maid went to see the eldest son of the Jiang family last night. I am afraid that some trap has been set in the forest. I am afraid that you will be in danger if you go." Chunyu shook her head disapprovingly, "If you want to Just watch the excitement, the servants will go there for you, and I will tell you one by one when I get back."

"It's interesting to see it with your own eyes." Gu Ning waved his hand and quickly opened the tent.

She also didn't want to get involved in the excitement, but for that map, she had to do it.

Thinking of this, Gu Ning curled her lips: It is best to get the map today, she doesn't want to worry about these things a second time.

Chunyu couldn't understand her persuasion, so she could only call the guards, and followed Gu Ning into the dense forest.

On the other side, Yue Rong, who had been watching the movement early in the morning, ran to Xie Yan who was on duty.

"The county lord has made a move." Yue Rong glanced at Xie Yan's face, and said cautiously, "The county lord followed Miss Gu and the others into the forest."

Is Chu Yunyi that good?

Xie Yan pursed her thin lips and said displeasedly, "Did Chu Yunyi find her?"

"The third prince is not here." Yue Rong shook his head quickly, "I see, the county lord's target seems to be Miss Gu and Miss Jiang."

"What are you doing with them?" Xie Yan's tone was still indifferent, but his eyes softened a lot.

Yue Rong naturally noticed the change in him, and quickly said: "This subordinate overheard Chunyu chatting with the county lord by chance, the county lord should just... just want to watch the excitement this time."

He finished the last sentence with difficulty, feeling very outrageous in his heart.

Who would have thought that the county lord let them follow him for so long just to watch the excitement of these two women's jealousy?

But Xie Yan's complexion gradually improved.

"Oh?" There was a smile in his words, "Is she just here to watch the fun?"

Seeing Xie Yan's joyful eyes, Yue Rong had a flash of inspiration and suddenly realized.

He nodded heavily: "This subordinate can hear you clearly."

Xie Yan got on his horse and told him, "Take me and follow me to patrol the woods."

The forbidden army who just came over looked puzzled: "Don't we just need to patrol outside?"

Xie Yan raised his whip indifferently, and dropped a cold sentence.

"The emperor also went hunting in the forest today."

The people around the imperial army patted him hard: "The commander is worried about the emperor's safety, so hurry up and call for someone!"

Seeing the two split up to organize the team, Yue Rong, who knew the real reason, sighed.

The master is not worried about the life and death of the dog emperor, but the person on his cusp is in the woods.
