Liu Yueru also found it strange. She didn't remember such a scene happening in her previous life. The person who could use a child to seduce her must know her well.

Apart from Song Nanzhi, Yuan Qinglian couldn't remember anyone else who wanted to kill her.

Liu Zimo frowned and asked, "Did you meet anyone in the hunting grounds and cause any unpleasantness?"

After being reminded by Liu Zimo, she remembered that she had seen Yang Yuning in the woods, so she asked Ye Tao and Bai Lu to wait outside.

Then he lowered his voice to Liu Zimo and said, "Wasn't it reported a few days ago that the lost child from the Duke's Mansion was found? When I was in the forest, I saw Yang Yuning and a strange girl. Yang Yuning told the girl to hide her identity and not let the people from the Duke's Mansion find out. And the girl's eyebrows and eyes are somewhat similar to the Duke's wife."

"I think Yang Yuning wants to seek revenge through that fake woman. Although his arm was cut off by the prince, the incident was caused by us. In addition, Yang Yuning is a vengeful person. I wonder if what happened just now was done by Yang Yuning."

Liu Zimo tapped his fingertips lightly on the table, and quickly analyzed Liu Yueru and said, "This is not impossible. Is there anyone else besides them? After all, Yang Yuning just came from Jiangnan and doesn't know the situation of the Kyoto Hunting Ground. So even if he wants to take revenge, he probably won't think of such a method."

"She knows the situation in the hunting grounds and was able to lure the tiger out from deep in the restricted area. Her identity must be extraordinary. And if I am not mistaken, the tiger just now was a female!"

Liu Yueru suddenly thought: "To be able to lure out the tigress, that person must have used its cub as bait. There must be a cub where Mother Yan was injured just now."

Liu Zimo nodded and continued, "Yes, Yue'er, think carefully about whether you have offended anyone by coming to the hunting grounds?"

The image of Princess Anlan flashed through her mind instantly. Although Princess Anlan had always made things difficult for her in her previous life, she had never tried to take her life.

"I did meet Princess Anlan, but it shouldn't be her." Liu Yueru said with a frown.

Liu Zimo pursed his lips and said nothing. Princess Anlan was the first daughter among Emperor Hexu's many children. It was no exaggeration to say that she had been the center of attention since she was a child.

She was the Queen's daughter and was regarded as the apple of her eye. So much so that Princess Anlan said she had not had enough fun and did not want to get married. The Queen and Emperor Hexu just let her be, and she has not yet married at the age of 25.

However, no one knew what kind of connection Princess Anlan and Song Nanzhi had many years ago. After Liu Yueru got engaged, it was rumored that Princess Anlan was clamoring to marry Song Nanzhi.

The whole high society in Kyoto knew about that incident.

Liu Zimo believes that the Queen is capable and Princess Anlan is not as ignorant and naive as she appears to be. Some things still need to be guarded against!

"Well, it's nothing, second brother will leave first. You should be careful." Liu Zimo reminded.

He estimated the time in his mind and it was almost time for the princes to start preparing for the first hunting game.

In this hunting competition, those princes who were ambitious for the throne were naturally eager to try and leave a good impression on the emperor in this competition.

The prince also put a lot of thought into this hunt.

Liu Zimo was just about to get up when she suddenly thought of something. She got up and poured Liu Zimo a cup of tea. While Liu Zimo was not paying attention, she poured a small amount of medicinal powder into the tea.

Only then did Liu Yueru bring the cup back to Liu Zimo and ask him to drink it.

Liu Zimo didn't think much about it, he picked up the cup and drank it all.

"Brother, there are many dangers in the hunting grounds. You don't know martial arts, so don't force yourself." Liu Yueru warned him in a gentle voice.

While speaking, Liu Yueru took out a short knife from her sleeve pocket and put it into Liu Zimo's hand: "Second brother, take this for self-defense for the time being."

After looking around, she whispered in Liu Zimo's ear: "Today the fight for the imperial power among the princes will begin. Be careful of the Third Prince."

Liu Zimo stared at Liu Yueru in disbelief and asked, "Yue'er, how do you know all this?"

"I will tell my second brother about it in the future. Remember to be careful." Liu Yueru said in a low voice.

Seeing that she didn't want to say more, Liu Zimo didn't ask any more questions. He nodded in the direction of Liu Yueru, then turned around and rushed to where the prince and the others were.

Before the hunt begins, a mountain worship ceremony is required, so the princes and ministers who want to participate in the hunt must perform a simple worship ceremony towards the mountain together.

At this time, Hua Ge'er was already being taken care of by Concubine Xian.

Liu Yueru only needs to bring Yan Ge'er and Liu Mubai with her.

Everyone rushed to the main hunting ground to participate in the worship ceremony.

Liu Yueru and the others walked behind the crowd. Mother Yan was injured, so they left her in the tent, and Bai Lu stayed with her.

The rest of the people were brought with them. In the previous life, the prince was assassinated, which caused panic. Many noble ladies were trampled and injured in this situation, and even a few noble ladies were trampled to death.

Thinking of this, Liu Yueru's eyes darkened a little as she thought of Xie Wenhua who was still in front of her.

She suddenly stopped and said to Song Yiyan and Liu Mubai, "Brother Yan, can you take little Mumu back to the tent to take care of Mother Yan? Mother will be back later."

Liu Mubai was very curious as she saw how lively things were going on ahead. However, she thought about how Mother Yan was usually very nice to her. Although she also wanted to join in the fun, she still nodded obediently.

Biting his chubby little hand, he swallowed his saliva, stared at Liu Yueru with his dark eyes and said, "There's meat, Mu Mu will eat it too."

Liu Yueru looked at her with a smirk and gently pinched Liu Mubai's fair face: "Little foodie, I'll remember to give you something delicious when I have it. Go back and be good, don't make a fuss."

Liu Mubai stretched out his little finger and pinky-pinched with Liu Yueru, then reluctantly followed Song Yiyan back.

Song Yiyan noticed that Liu Yueru looked nervous, and before leaving, he whispered to her, "Mother, come back early, we'll be waiting for you."

Liu Yueru smiled knowingly and asked Jingzhe to escort them back.

After watching them leave, Liu Yueru quickly squeezed into the crowd.

at this time.

The Emperor and the Empress have already started the worship with the princes and concubines.

Liu Yueru immediately saw Xie Wenhua standing beside Xie Jingrui.

Xie Wenhua also saw Liu Yueru's figure, raised his hand and gently tugged at Xie Jingrui's sleeve.

Xie Jingrui's cold eyes fell on Xie Wenhua, and he saw him winking at him.

Xie Jingrui followed Xie Wenhua's line of sight in confusion, and what caught his eye was Liu Yueru.

His expression suddenly became somewhat unnatural, and finally he withdrew his gaze with a calm expression, holding the incense and began to worship.

Liu Yueru was waiting in front for an opportunity to take Xie Wenhua away.

After everyone paid tribute.

The maidservant beside Concubine Xian suddenly found Liu Yueru.
