"Why are you back alone? Where did Qingque go? Aren't you following you?" The imperial concubine asked in surprise as she couldn't see the people following her daughter.

Xirui didn't want Eniang to misunderstand Qingque, so she naturally took all the responsibility on herself, "She was watching her daughter come over just now, but she didn't follow because her daughter had something to do and asked her to do it."

As he spoke, he sat down on the seat next to the imperial concubine, held her arm affectionately, and said in a coquettish tone, "Eniang~"

The imperial concubine was shaken by her and lost her temper. "Okay, okay, I'm just worried that they won't take good care of you, so I just asked them. Look at how protective you are."

My daughter treats these people with sincerity, and sometimes even the imperial concubine can't help but feel jealous, and she can't help but worry.

Xi Rui smiled and laughed, trying to fool this situation quickly.

She knows her daughter better than her mother, how can the imperial concubine still see her little thoughts?

"You~ You are too old to be wise, how can I let you be safe?" The imperial concubine pointed her unarmored finger at her daughter's head and stabbed it with one finger.

Xi Rui tilted her head back in cooperation, then knelt back on E Niang's arm, relaxing her whole body and saying coquettishly, "If E Niang is worried, just stay with your daughter from now on, E Niang." If you live a long life, no one will dare to bully your daughter."

The imperial concubine was so coaxed that her eyebrows were filled with smiles.

The people waiting around the mother and daughter also said nice things and made fun.

"Could it be that the princess gave you some of her own honey this morning, which is why each of your mouths is sweeter than the other." The imperial concubine glanced around.

The last of his eyes fell on Aunt Alu, "Mommy, remember to go back and reward them well, so that you don't waste your sweet words on me."

Aunt Alu not only responded with a smile, but also followed suit, "Hey, slaves must remember to reward them with more honey, and they can eat it to make their master happy." As long as her master is happy, she will be happy.

"Isn't it true that Mammy also followed the example and became bad?" the imperial concubine laughed and cursed.

Everyone burst into laughter for a moment.

Not long after, the Queen Mother arrived surrounded by a group of people.

The old lady has been spending time with her family these past few days, talking and laughing, and her complexion has improved a lot.

As soon as he stepped into the temporary felt tent that was set up to prevent the wind, he waved to everyone, "No need to be polite, just sit back and relax." Don't disturb her to watch the young people lively.

After saying that, he was helped to the front seat and sat down. He smiled and asked someone to bring out something, "For today's hunting, the Ai family has also prepared a good prize. Whoever gets more, better, and more precious prey in a while, Then you can take advantage of this opportunity."

As the words fell, the attention of everyone inside and outside the venue was attracted.

I saw the palace attendant behind the Empress Dowager holding a tray and taking a few steps forward, lifting the red silk covering it. What was revealed on the tray was today's prize: a yellow mantle!

"Huh! This is really a yellow mantle..."

"The yellow mantle is the lucky draw, so I will go all out."

"I thought this hunt was boring, but these are much more interesting."

"..."

The people outside the felt tent took advantage of the fact that they were far away, and everyone started whispering.

Everyone present had different reactions, and they all fell into the eyes of the Empress Dowager.

She was very satisfied with the effect and announced with a smile, "Now that you have seen the prize, the hunting can officially begin."

With a wave of his hand, he motioned to the palace attendants to place the lottery head in the middle of the high position.

Then there were heralds beating drums, signaling the start of the hunt.

"It's really exciting now." Concubine Yi, who was sitting next to the imperial concubine and her daughter, said meaningfully while looking at the paddock in front of her.

Hearing Xi Rui strongly agree in her heart.

The yellow jackets are all out, and there are still a few people who can't be serious.

Those people on the field, even if they were just having fun at the beginning, now they are showing their determination to win.

Not to mention those who just want to take this opportunity to be in the limelight.

"Isn't Concubine Yi going to play?" Xi Rui was still a little surprised that Concubine Yi didn't play.

The scale of this hunt was small, which reduced the risk. This was exactly what the Queen Mother had prepared to allow more people to participate.

Even among the concubines, there were a few who gave it a try.

Yifei grew up in Shengjing and was equally capable of riding and shooting. Xi Rui thought she would not give up this opportunity.

"Hey, I won't join in the fun of these young people." Concubine Yi said lightly, but she was still betrayed by the sadness in her eyes.

Xi Rui understood that Concubine Yi was just like her mother. It wasn't that she didn't want to, but that she felt it was inappropriate.

They all knew that Kangxi was behind the scenes and what the Empress Dowager planned to do with this hunt.

I just don't want to get involved.

"That's right, their young people are not fun at all. Yi Niangniang will play with Xiao Qi next time. Xiao Qi is not young enough to play with Yi Niang Niang." Xirui freed up a hand to hold Yi Fei, "My E Niang can do it too. I like playing with Xiao Qi, if you don’t believe me, just ask.”

"Hahaha, you little living treasure." Yi Fei held Xi Rui in her backhand and couldn't stop laughing. She had no time to care about those melancholy.

"Ms. Yi, I will remember what you said today. Next time I come to play with you, please don't despise Ms. Yi." Concubine Yi said and wanted to ask the imperial concubine to testify, not giving Xirui any chance to regret.

"Don't worry, Miss Yi. Even if Xiao Qi says something, even eight horses can't catch up." Xirui assured, patting her belly.

Hearing this, Concubine Yi laughed so hard that her stomach felt uncomfortable. She forced herself to take a breath and said to the concubine, "Sister Concubine, she always feeds our seventh princess, how can she be so cute?"

"Quickly teach me, sister, so that I can give that brat Xiaojiu a try, so that he doesn't get angry with me all the time." Concubine Yi wanted to trade Yinzhen for Xirui now.

"If Xiaojiu hears what you said, he will be sad." The imperial concubine turned slightly to join the discussion, "Xiaojiu is such a good child, but he is still young and has an undecided temperament. Why do you have to be so disgusted with me? "

No matter what the imperial concubine was thinking at this time, she had to say that Yinzhen was very good.

Concubine Yi gave birth to three sons. The eldest son was taken to the Queen Mother to be raised as soon as he was born, and he was not very close to her.

The younger son is frail and sickly. He grew up holding a medicine jar. I don’t know if he can be raised.

The one in the middle, Xiao Jiu, was raised by herself and was in good health. No matter how troublesome she was, she would still be Concubine Yi's pet peeve.

She can say it herself, but others cannot.

The imperial concubine knows the ropes well.

So he just comforted and said that things would get better when the child grows up.
