After I became a passerby, I saved the villain's family

The day of the autumn hunt.

Jiang Ruoli had breakfast and went to the front yard to wait.

Mrs. Jiang looked at Jiang Ruoli's excited face and felt sincerely relieved.

Her Li'er finally became as lively as she was when she was a child.

"The autumn hunt lasts for three days, and it's your first time going, so you must be safe and be a good friend to your father and brothers, okay?"

The mistress of the house usually does not go to the Dacheng Autumn Hunting, and even the emperor would only bring one or two concubines at most.

However, these three days are also a good opportunity for the mistresses of various wealthy families to relax. They don’t have to take care of their husbands and children at home, and mistresses who are close to each other will visit each other.

However, this autumn hunting was Jiang Ruoli's first time, and Mrs. Jiang was really worried.

"Don't worry, mother. Daddy and my brothers will take good care of me."

As he spoke, Jiang Ci Jin strode into the front hall.

Duke Jiang and Jiang Ci Yan are going to the palace early to welcome the emperor. Jiang Ci An is responsible for the defense of this autumn hunt, so Jiang Ci Jin is the only one left at home with Jiang Ruoli.

"Little sister, don't worry and follow third brother this time. I promise you will have a great time!" Jiang Ci Jin put his arm on Jiang Ruoli's shoulder and said cynically.

"The mare that Third Brother raised gave birth to a foal last year. It's snow-white and very beautiful. Third Brother is giving it to you!"

Jiang Ruoli originally tried to pull Jiang Cijin's arm in disdain, but her eyes lit up when she heard this, "Really?! Thank you, Third Brother!"

"Okay, you brothers and sisters, hurry up and leave. The emperor's carriage should be arriving at the city gate soon." Mrs. Jiang urged with a smile.

When His Majesty leaves the palace for the autumn hunt, all court officials need to go to the palace in advance to welcome him, and the rest of the people need to wait at the city gate in advance.

When Jiang Ruoli and Jiang Ci Jin arrived at the city gate by car, many people were already waiting there.

Arriving at the Duke Zhenguo's Mansion, Jiang Ci Jin exchanged greetings with a familiar young man sitting next to him.

Soon, the emperor's carriage arrived.

In addition to Crown Prince Xiao Yujing and Eldest Prince Xiao Yuyan, Concubine Jia and Princess Yuyao also went on this autumn hunt.

The third prince Xiao Yuheng is still under house arrest and is not in this team.

Concubine Jia is the mother of the third prince and the most favored concubine in the current harem; Princess Yuyao is the emperor's only daughter, so it goes without saying that he loves her very much.

The emperor only brought these two women with him on this autumn hunt, which shows how high the status of these two women is in his heart.

When Jiang Ruoli heard Princess Yuyao's name, she remembered something.

The original book said that when Princess Yuyao was eight years old, she fell in love with the handsome Jiang Ci Yan at first sight. She insisted on summoning him into the palace to be her male concubine, and even went to the Imperial College to express her feelings to Jiang Ci Yan in public while he was in class.

Jiang Ci Yan was only fourteen years old at the time. No matter how steady he was, he was still a child. He was so scared that he didn't go to class for seven days.

At that time, Jiang Ci Yan was preparing for the second year's imperial examination and was under heavy academic pressure. Duke Jiang was also a fool. After learning about this, he made a scene in front of the emperor without any regard for the royal family or the woman's face.

The emperor was furious at the fact that the princess had done such an immoral thing, and ordered Princess Yuyao to be confined to her home for six months and fined her one year's salary.

This was a huge punishment for Princess Yuyao, who had had a smooth life since childhood. "Love turned into hate," and she bore a grudge against the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion from then on.

Afterwards, Duke Jiang also realized that something was wrong and went to the palace to apologize to the emperor and Princess Yuyao.

Although the matter was dropped, the feud between Princess Yuyao and the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion was still formed.

Jiang Ruoli prostrated herself and knelt down along with Jiang Cijin, and the entire city gate and its surroundings fell into complete silence.

Jiang Ruoli got on the carriage only after Luan drove out of the city gate, while Jiang Cijin rode on the side.

As soon as she left the city gate, Jiang Ruoli lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked at the autumn scenery outside the city, admiring and sighing.

【This is my first time out of town.】

【Wow, the ginkgo tree is so beautiful! 】

[Hey, I think I saw a rabbit running by. I wonder if I can catch rabbits in the hunting ground.]

[You can make spicy rabbit head, roasted rabbit meat...]

......

Hearing Jiang Ruoli's thoughts one after another, Jiang's father and son and Xiao Yujing were all quite helpless.

The hunting ground is on the eastern outskirts of Kyoto, and it becomes increasingly deserted as you go east.

Jiang Ruoli lost interest after watching for a while.

[How boring! I should have asked Fuguo to bring some books.]

Jiang Ruoli was munching on the snacks that Madam Jiang had brought her, leaning lazily in the carriage, while Fuguo was making tea for her.

Xiao Yujing listened to his subordinates' reports while also listening to Jiang Ruoli's thoughts.

When Xiao Yujing suddenly heard the words "so boring", a smile appeared in his eyes.

This little chatterbox really has no patience.

"Your Highness? Your Highness??"

The guard was reporting the arrangements for the autumn hunt to the prince. As he was speaking, the prince suddenly fell silent. The guard didn't know what he had said wrong and glanced at Eunuch Wu who was beside the prince.

Eunuch Wu was a little surprised when he noticed that Xiao Yujing was a little distracted.

The prince had been appointed as the heir to the throne for so many years, but this was the first time he saw the prince distracted when it came to political affairs.

I couldn't help but remind him out loud.

Xiao Yujing glanced at Eunuch Wu, and suddenly thought of something, and ordered:

"Eunuch Wu, please select a few books of poetry from my bookcase and send them to the carriage of Miss Jiang, the Duke of Zhenguo."

She was able to compose such a stunning poem at the chrysanthemum viewing banquet, so she must also like to read this kind of books in her daily life.

Eunuch Wu was shocked. Who is this person?

But he didn't have time to think about it, so he quickly responded and respectfully withdrew.

While selecting books, Eunuch Wu had a flash of inspiration.

The young lady of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion, could she be the daughter of Duke Jiang who hasn't gone out for several years?

When did Your Highness get in touch with this person?

Although Eunuch Wu was confused, he could only suppress his doubts and focus on the tasks assigned by the prince.

Jiang Ruoli was leaning against the carriage, feeling a little drowsy at this time, and had no idea that Xiao Yujing had given her a "big gift".

Eunuch Wu and a young eunuch quietly came to the outside of Jiang Ruoli's carriage.

When he saw Jiang Ci Jin, Eunuch Wu bowed.

"Young Master Jiang."

Jiang Cijin bowed in return, looked at the young eunuch holding a pile of books, and asked in confusion: "Eunuch Wu, what are you doing?"

"I am here to deliver books to Miss Jiang on the orders of the Crown Prince." Eunuch Wu smiled slightly, "Your Highness said that the journey was boring, so he sent some books to Miss Jiang to pass the time."

Jiang Ci Jin was confused. When did the prince become so nice to his younger sister?

But then he immediately realized that this was because of what happened to Princess Ningyang before.

Jiang Cijin nodded, "Thank you for your hard work, father-in-law."

He reached out and took the book.

When Eunuch Wu saw that the letter had been delivered, he respectfully took his leave.

However, when Jiang Ci Jin lifted the curtain of the carriage, he took the opportunity to take a look.

The face of the person in the carriage flashed by.

She has a beautiful face, dignified and elegant, delicate appearance but not aggressive.

You can tell at first glance that he is a good-tempered person.

Eunuch Wu commented in his heart.

Jiang Ruoli woke up when she heard Eunuch Wu's voice.

Jiang Ruoli was a little surprised to hear that it was the prince who ordered her to deliver the book.

Is the villain the worm in her stomach?

But it was just enough to help her pass the time.

[His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is such a good man! ]

I couldn't help but sigh in my heart.

When Jiang Ci Jin brought the books in, Jiang Ruoli rolled her eyes silently as she looked at the poetry books that were thicker than bricks.

Forget it, she should just go to sleep.
