"Dinner is ready. I heard that the prince called specifically for the Marquis. The Marquis should eat more tonight." Shen Chi nodded to show that he understood, and turned to look at the sky outside.

"The weather is nice tonight, shall we have dinner in the yard?"

Su Niang showed a happy expression, "Okay, I will go and tell the kitchen to prepare it right away."

Soon, several servants placed dinner on the small table in the yard.

The moonlight is like water, gently sprinkling on the table, and the evening breeze blows gently, bringing bursts of flower fragrance.

Shen Chi and Su Niang sat opposite each other, and he raised his glass to greet Su Niang.

"Suniang, I offer you this glass of wine. I know Xuan'er sometimes acts capriciously and causes you a lot of trouble. But he is kind by nature and is just spoiled. Please be more tolerant of him, Suniang." The Marquis' tone was full of gratitude and apology. He was extremely grateful to Suniang for her hard work over the years.

"My Lord, you are too polite. If it weren't for the Madam, I wouldn't be where I am today. Besides, the prince is kind-hearted, he is just childish." There was a barely perceptible tenderness in Su Niang's eyes.

If the Madam hadn't saved her from the cold pond, she might have already died. How could she be here today?

"Madam." Shen Chi murmured softly, a trace of sadness appearing on his face.

Su Niang looked at Shen Chi's expression and quickly added a piece of chicken from the plate and put it in Shen Chi's bowl.

"My Lord, please try it while it's hot. The pheasant that the prince hunted today is really plump..." Su Niang said softly.

Shen Chi nodded slightly, picked up the chicken in the bowl and chewed it slowly.

The delicious taste of the chicken filled his mouth, but his mind had already drifted far away.

"My Lord, what's wrong with you?" Su Niang couldn't help but ask when she saw that Shen Chi looked a little strange.

Shen Chi came back to his senses, shook his head gently and said, "Nothing, I just remembered some past events." Su Niang looked at him silently and didn't ask any more questions.

When Shen Yan returned to the bamboo courtyard, he saw a table full of delicious food.

In the middle was the wild rabbit he had hunted today. It was roasted until golden and juicy, and looked very delicious.

Shen Yan's throat rolled slightly and his eyes were deep.

[Host, I want one too. I want one too.] Xiao San was pulling at Shen Yan's trouser legs.

The sound of Xiao San swallowing her saliva kept coming from my mind.

Shen Yan sat down at the table, picked up a rabbit leg, put it on the plate, and handed it to Xiao San.

"Eat slowly, be careful of the heat." After saying that, she picked up a rabbit leg for him and put it in her mouth.

The next second, his pupils shrank, his back straightened, and he almost bit his tongue.

This, this, this is so delicious! ?

Shen Yan was shocked. He had eaten many roasted rabbits before, but none of them could compare to this one.

It’s incredible!

[Host, I want more, I want more.] Shen Yan looked to the side and saw Xiao San had eaten the rabbit leg until only the bones were left.

Shen Yan picked up some more.

By the time he and his cat had eaten their fill, all the food on the table had been cleared away.

Shen Yan stared straight at Xiao San's belly.

He was really curious, how could such a small stomach eat so much?

2/3 of the dishes on the table were eaten by the mistress, which made him stunned.

When Shen Yan was lazily lying on the couch and rubbing his belly, the servants came in and cleared the dishes.

Xiao San also lazily lay down at Shen Yan's feet.

In the next few days, Shen Yan practiced sword and target shooting every day, and in the blink of an eye, it was the day of spring hunting.

On the day of spring hunting, before dawn, Shen Yan got up early, washed carefully, and got dressed.

He and Shen Chi came to the palace gate together, waiting for the order to set off.

Shen Yan was wearing a green shirt, holding a long sword, with a determined look in his eyes.

As time went by, the sky gradually brightened. More and more people gathered at the palace gate, not only high-ranking officials in the court, but also children in the palace.

Shen Yan saw at a glance that Wang Wanqing was wearing a pink dress in the crowd, looking elegant and refined.

She had a faint smile on her face and her eyes were looking for something in the crowd.

After a while, his eyes stayed on the front and he showed a bright smile.

Shen Yan also looked over there, and saw a handsome man in a black robe. It seemed that this was the so-called male protagonist.

In response, Shen Yan smiled lightly and turned his head.

At this time, the palace gate was opened, and dozens of royal guards holding spears stood majestically on both sides.

"Your Majesty, you have arrived!" A shrill voice echoed throughout the palace gate.

A huge and luxurious carriage drove out.

A bright yellow figure slowly appeared in everyone's sight.

He was wearing a gorgeous dragon robe, a golden crown on his head, a handsome face, deep facial features, and a powerful aura emanating from his whole body. It was the emperor of the Great Xuan Dynasty, Xiao Yi.

As the carriage rolled, everyone knelt down and shouted in unison with the royal guards: "Long live the emperor!"

The sound was deafening, demonstrating the emperor's supreme majesty.

"Get up!" Xiao Yi's voice was deep and powerful, echoing throughout the team.

After everyone stood up, Xiao Yi nodded to the servants beside him.

"Let's go." The attendant understood and immediately led everyone towards the hunting ground.

When the carriage drove in front of Shen Yan, the red line in his mind instantly responded.

Shen Yan's gaze instantly turned towards Xiao Yi, but unexpectedly the other party was looking over there as well.

When their eyes met, the air seemed to freeze and a strange atmosphere flowed between them.

Shen Yan's heart was beating rapidly, and a huge feeling of joy surged in his heart.

It's him!

It's really him!

Shen Yan restrained his trembling body, and the affection in his eyes burst out instantly.

Xiao Yi, who was in the carriage, had a hint of doubt in his eyes, but it was quickly replaced by coldness.

As the carriage moved forward, Shen Yan stood there in a daze for a long time until Xiao Yi disappeared from view.

"Xuan'er, Xuan'er, let's go." Shen Chi saw his son standing there stupidly, and walked up to him and patted his shoulder helplessly.

Shen Yan finally came back to his senses, turned to look at Shen Chi, and nodded slightly.

He stood up and mounted the horse, his eyes fixed on the figure in the carriage.

The hunting ground is located in the northeast of the palace and is a vast forest.

When Shen Yan and others arrived, it was already noon.

Everyone was tired from the long journey, so they found their own tents and settled down first.

After Shen Yan handed the horse to his servant, he walked unconsciously to the outside of the emperor's tent. Looking at the row of royal guards guarding the door, a hint of sadness flashed in Shen Yan's eyes.

He remembered that next, he would have one chance, perhaps the only chance.

Although the process may be a little despicable.

But he had to do it.

By the afternoon, Xiao Yi sat firmly on the high platform, with many officials sitting on both sides below.

Shen Yan and others had already changed into their tight clothes and were standing in rows below.
