The reborn son cursed his mother, bah, she heard it all

When Jiang Ying heard this, he waited for everyone to leave and then quickly entered the space.

It is easier to fall asleep in it, and one stick of incense can provide at least two hours of sleep.

Sure enough, when Huang Mingquan came in person to urge him, Jiang Ying opened the door and came out looking energetic.

If you don’t know, you might think she was performing some evil magic to replenish her yin!

"It was my fault for wasting time due to my oversleeping. Eunuch Huang can go back and report now." Yan Zhuo smiled and took the responsibility for delaying the main force.

Eunuch Huang was very shrewd. He looked between the two of them for a few times, but he saw through it but didn't say anything. "It's okay. It didn't take long. Besides, the emperor knew that Madam Jiang had worked hard to treat the eldest princess last night. If the hunting trip had not been scheduled at an auspicious time, it would have been reasonable to let Madam Jiang rest for half an hour."

After saying that, he happily took the reward money handed over by Siyu and left. Xiaoxuanzi, who followed behind him, turned around and winked at Jiang Ying mischievously~

Jiang Ying naturally knew that Huang Mingquan was just saying nice things. The annual autumn hunt was a big event for the royal family, as it heralded a good harvest in the autumn and good weather in the coming year, as well as peace and prosperity for the country and the people.

That is why the Imperial Astronomical Observatory specially calculated an auspicious time for the opening ceremony.

——Usually the emperor would give an inspiring speech, then offer prizes of all sizes for the hunt, and finally the emperor would shoot the first arrow, and the entire hunt would begin.

Jingshan was a royal hunting ground, and some wild animals were raised in the mountain all year round. There were many common pheasants, spotted deer, jackals and leopards, but large wild animals such as tigers, lions, dogs and bears were not common.

The main reason is that these ferocious beasts are too powerful and can easily hurt people.

People like Yan Zhuo have practiced martial arts, archery and riding skills and have become top-notch. Fighting a tiger or a lion is no problem for them. However, many children from wealthy families are all show and no substance.

Don’t go out and fail to catch the prey, but end up becoming the prey yourself, that would be ugly…

The main task of the royal hunting activities is to improve the relationship between the monarch and his subjects and to select talents, not to kill someone's son and create hatred. Therefore, there is really no need to raise ferocious beasts.

Hundreds of people climbed the mountain with great effort. This was the way to climb the mountain for both a first-rank official and a humble ninth-rank official.

Everyone has to rely on their own strength and finally climb to the biggest competition arena at the top of the mountain.

At the top of Jingshan Mountain, the competition field.

In addition to the emperor's tent in the center, there were many other tents, large and small, around it for the female relatives who came with them to rest and watch.

Not everyone who came had to go on stage. Most of the officials had their children follow suit and perform a few moves. The old officials themselves did not want to go on stage and embarrass themselves.

What's more, some people are just civil servants and don't rely on their military prowess to make a living.

After allocating tents to each family, everyone sat down to rest and drink some tea, while Huang Mingquan took people to check the list of participants.

Generally, once you have registered, you are not allowed to change it at will. Of course, if you are sick or there is an emergency, such as accidentally breaking your leg, you can still ask for leave or replace other brothers in the family.

Just as Huang Mingquan walked past the Jiang family tent with the blue book in his hand, Jiang Ying took a quick glance and saw Yan Zhuo's name as the first one prominently listed!

She glanced into the tent and found her monkey son was playing with Siyu and the others, not paying attention to this side. She lowered her voice and said to Yan Zhuo, "Your son turned his life around by hunting in his previous life. If you can't kill a few more prey this time to make him convinced, he will definitely become a little devil and be ignored in the future."

"Ying'er is right. I must achieve good results this time no matter what. Not only to establish my authority in front of my son, but also because of the bet I made."

What bet?

Jiang Ying had no idea and subconsciously showed a questioning look, but at this moment, Huang Mingquan waved for Xiaoxuanzi, who was carrying the tray, to come over.

"Your Highness, Madam Jiang, someone from the Jiang family is also going to take the stage. I came to ask, are you ready?"

King Mo looked energetic and there seemed to be no problem, so Huang Mingquan was too lazy to ask any more questions.

The Jiang family recruited Jiang Yuanyi and Jiang Yuanlang. Jiang Yuanchen was good at studying but his martial arts was average, and he was not interested in it.

As for Jiang Yuanyi, as a general who marched and fought in battles, he would be ridiculed if he did not sign up for a competition of this level, so he had to participate.

Since Sun Bo's lawsuit, Jiang Yuanlang has been studying hard and has achieved considerable results. However, this time he is mainly covering for Jiang Yuanyi. As the saying goes, brothers of one mind can break metal.

Not only the Jiang family, many children of other aristocratic families also form groups. There are even many cases where two or three surnames form groups because of marriage contracts or family relationships.

After all, this is a good opportunity to show up in front of the emperor and powerful officials.

"Eunuch Huang, we brothers have been prepared for a long time and will not ask for leave." Jiang Yuanyi stood up and said.

He looked intently into the Lu family's tent not far away, looking for the alluring red figure.

Jiang Yuanchen held a book in his hand and muttered to himself, "Then I will write some words to cheer up my eldest brother and third brother later."

This is like a school sports meet on campus. A family has athletes fighting on the front line and there must be backup behind them.

These cheering words were written by fans to encourage their own players.

If someone can write an excellent poem to entertain others, he or she may win the emperor's favor and receive rewards. Of course, the value of the poem is not very high, but it is a rare opportunity for a young girl.

By writing brilliant words to entertain the audience and getting a word of praise from the emperor, empress or queen mother, it will be of great benefit to a girl's marriage.

Otherwise, why would so many young ladies come here in the deep mountains and forests?

It's just that there are few opportunities to go out on weekdays, so why not look at the handsome guys during the hunting? Besides, where did the title of the four talented ladies in Beijing come from? That's how it came about!

At the entrance of the Mu family's tent, which was separated by several tents, Mu Wanbai was surrounded by several young ladies, and they were talking about this matter of cheering people up.

"Wanbai, you wrote an excellent poem to cheer us up last year, and even won praise from the Princess Qin. This year, with two talented ladies like you and Miss Su here, we definitely won't have a chance to stand out."

"That's right, Wanbai, I heard that the Queen of Qin really likes you and has asked Baoshan to propose marriage to her son, right? So this time, if your brothers from the Mu family go against Yanshan, will you help your brothers or your future husband?"

The girls were laughing and joking, having a great time. But Mu Wanbai's eyes passed through the wall of people and fell on the Jiang family's tent.

She wants to win, so the cheering words she writes will definitely be a hundred or a thousand times better than Jiang Ying's!

She was unwilling to accept Jiang Yuanchen's betrayal and was even more envious and jealous of Jiang Ying.

Both of them married the sons of the King Qin, so why did she marry only the second son Yan Shan, while Jiang Ying rose to fame overnight and became the princess?

A child born from a concubine's marriage can be immediately named the crown prince!

How could this make her feel comfortable?

Mu Wanbai's gaze was too aggressive. Jiang Ying frowned and looked in her direction, just in time to see her pulling Mu Zijin with a meaningful smile on her lips, as if she had deliberately raised the volume.

“You are right. Recently, the Mu family has had several waves of matchmakers come to us. However, I am the eldest daughter of the Mu family, so my parents always have to consider many things.

But Zijin is different.

She is a concubine's daughter, and she won't have to be the head of the family when she marries, so my father and mother said that they would pick a good family for Zijin before the New Year, preferably one where she won't have to worry about food and clothing and can enjoy a happy life directly."

There's obviously something else behind what he said!

What kind of family doesn’t have to worry about food and clothing, and doesn’t have to worry about being a mistress?

That must be a businessman!

They also say "enjoy happiness directly". What does it mean to enjoy happiness? Children and grandchildren around your knees!

So what Mu Wanbai meant was that Lord Mu and Madam Mu wanted to arrange a rich old man for Mu Zijin so that she could make use of her status as a concubine's daughter!
