Chapter 2308 Spring Hunting (fourth update)
The carriage driver stopped the carriage and walked towards the teahouse.
Han Ruyi felt excited, stood up quickly, and reached out to push Qi'er.
"Wake up, Muzichuan is here to pick us up!" she said.
Then he quickly picked up his skirt and left the teahouse, and happened to meet the coachman in front of him.
"Miss Han, please get in the car." The coachman bowed and asked.
"Yes!"
Han Ruyi smiled faintly, raised her hand to straighten her dress, then held the Xiangfei fan and walked towards the carriage with graceful steps.
"Master Mu, I'm coming up."
She bowed slightly toward the fallen carriage curtain and said.
There was no movement in the carriage.
Just when Han Ruyi was surprised, the carriage driver followed from behind.
He stretched out his hand to lift the curtain of the carriage and said to Han Ruyi: "Master Mu got off the car at the intersection ahead. He said that he had some other things to deal with. It was Master Mu who ordered the younger one to come and pick him up. Miss Han is coming home.”
“Miss Han, please get in the car.”
What?
Han Ruyi was startled for a moment and stood beside the carriage, her whole body unable to help but tremble slightly.
"Miss, get in the car quickly, it's so cold and sleepy!"
Zi'er rubbed her eyes and followed, muttering as she urged.
Han Ruyi took a deep breath, suppressed the urge to tear everything up, and got on the carriage.
I really want to be brave and not take this carriage back home, but from here to the Taishi Mansion, there are at least two streets, hey!
As the curtain of the carriage was thrown down heavily, Han Ruyi's suppressed angry voice came: "Go home!"
......
When Yang Ruoqing returned to the shop, there were only two people left in the shop. The next shopkeeper is here.
Dayao and another guy went back.
Luo Fengtang has not returned yet.
She looked through the account books in the room for a while and looked at the sky outside the window.
It’s so late and Tang Yazi hasn’t come back yet. Could it be that things are difficult?
After waiting for a while, Luo Fengtang finally came back, wrapped in a cold air.
"Why did you come back so late today? Did you encounter any stumbling block?"
Yang Ruoqing quickly stood up and went over to greet him. While asking, she helped him take off his coat. He came down and put it aside, then brought him hot water to apply on his face.
Luo Fengtang wiped hot water on his face and said to her: "Things are going according to our expectations. If we follow the clues, we should get to the bottom of it in the next two days."
"The reason why I came back today is "It's late because I was summoned by His Highness the Second Prince to talk about something," he said.
“Oh?” Yang Ruoqing raised her eyebrows.
The second prince’s name is Qi Xingchen.
He is in the same camp as Mr. Zhang, the great scholar of Huagaidian, and Mu Zichuan.
The second prince admired Luo Fengtang very much, and even gave his name to her and Luo Fengtang's first son, Chen'er.
It's just a pity that Chen'er was so short-lived that he couldn't bear the name, so he lost it in more than three months...
Taking his thoughts back, Yang Ruoqing then asked Luo Fengtang: "Let's wait for the matter later. Besides, let me ask you, have you eaten dinner? Are you hungry?"
Luo Fengtang smiled and said, "I ate it at the Second Prince's Mansion."
"By the way, I brought this to you. One piece, I think it tastes good, I think you might like it too.”
He took out a fist-sized paper bag from his close pocket and handed it to Yang Ruoqing.
She held it in her hand. The paper bag was soft and warm.
"What is this?" she asked.
Luo Fengtang said: "Open it and take a look. Anyway, this is the first time I've seen it, and I think it tastes good." Yang Ruoqing quickly opened it, and what was in front of her was a ball of fluff. At first glance, it looked like Old Yang's head. The dry tobacco they smoke is somewhat similar.
However, it is not as pungent as tobacco, but has a sweet aroma.
The sweet aroma is mixed with a hint of fishy smell.
"Is this... surimi?" she asked.
Luo Fengtang was surprised, "Qing'er, do you recognize this thing? Yes, the second prince did say that this thing is made of fish meat!"
And it's very expensive, of course. , also very nurturing.
Yang Ruoqing smiled and said, "I haven't seen it before. I guessed it by smelling it."
Then she twisted a handful with her fingers and put it in her mouth.
"How is it? Is it delicious?" Luo Fengtang asked.
Yang Ruoqing nodded repeatedly, with an intoxicated expression on her face.
"It's so delicious. Thank you husband for not forgetting to bring such delicious food back to me." She said vaguely.
When Luo Fengtang heard this, he grinned, with joy in his eyes and brows.
"By the way, the second prince called you over. What's the matter?" Yang Ruoqing asked again.
Luo Fengtang said: "That's right, this spring's royal hunting is about to begin. It will be located at the Xishan Hunting Ground, thirty miles west of the capital."
"The Emperor will arrange the hunting ground. The important task was entrusted to His Highness King Chen. When His Highness learned that I had come to the capital, he summoned me and wanted me to assist him in completing this matter."
After hearing his words, Yang Ruoqing raised her eyebrows, her eyes revealing. A hint of interest.
It has been five or six years since I came to Daqi, and this is the first time I have caught up with a royal hunt.
Royal hunting usually chooses places with rich water and grass and pleasant scenery to raise a bunch of wild beasts in captivity.
To put it bluntly, the emperor was tired of staying in the palace and wanted to take his children out for entertainment.
By the way, you can also urge your children and grandchildren not to waste your martial arts in a comfortable life.
The Emperor of Da Qi conquered the world on horseback.
In the past few years, there have been constant wars with neighboring countries, large and small.
Even now, he is still coveted by the Nanmanzi and the Black Lotus Sect. Therefore, the Emperor of Da Qi has strict requirements for his children and grandchildren.
This hunt happens once or twice a year, and it never changes.
At that time, not only the princes and grandsons, but also the men of the royal family will participate, and some young generals will also show off their skills.
This is a form of entertainment for the upper class in ancient times. It is also a bit like sports competitions or military exercises in modern society.
All in all, the royal hunt is a very cautious and important matter with profound impact.
King Qi gave the job of arranging the hunting ground to the second prince Qi Xingchen, which shows King Qi’s attitude towards the second prince.
And Qi Xingchen found Luo Fengtang again, which is enough to prove Qi Xingchen's trust and respect for Luo Fengtang.
If everything goes well during this hunting, then the second prince and Luo Fengtang will be appreciated and reused by King Qi, which is a good opportunity.
"Qing'er, I didn't accept this job on the spot." Luo Fengtang spoke again, pulling Yang Ruoqing back from her thoughts.
"Ah? Why shouldn't you? This is a good opportunity!" Yang Ruoqing asked a little surprised.
Luo Fengtang said: "If you want to go, you have to leave for Xishan tomorrow, and you can't come back until the hunting is over in five days."
"The matter at the shop has not been resolved yet. At this time How can I leave? I must come back and make plans with you, Qing'er!" she said.
Yang Ruoqing said: "We have already figured out what we want you to track, and the bait has been thrown out. Now we are just waiting for the fish to take the bait."
"In this part of the shop, what happens next Just leave it to me. You can go find the second prince tomorrow and help him arrange the hunting grounds!”
