"Tsk, just pretending, just a show."

Outside the carriage, the tenth prince Xiao Jin sat on a tall horse and narrowed his eyes in disdain.

He was not far from the carriage of Prince Gong's Mansion, and the voice just happened to reach Jiang Xue's ears.

Jiang Xue turned her head and saw a little kid who was only seven years old. She was stunned for a moment: "Although the guards are on high alert for hunting, it is a fight with wild beasts after all. Why does this little guy want to get involved?"

"Hunting is a big day for our royal family. It has been a custom for praying for blessings since the founding of Beiling. No matter if there are children in the family, big or small, male or female, no one can be left out. Even a newborn baby has to join in the fun."

Xiao Zhan explained that this rule sounded a bit old-fashioned, but it was set by our ancestors and had to be followed.

Jiang Xue nodded and looked at the tiny figure on the horse twice more.

"You seem to care a lot about this little Tenth Prince." Xiao Zhan and she were in perfect sync and he could see through her eyes at a glance.

"Yes, this little guy is only seven years old, but his every move reveals a sense of sophistication. He speaks and acts much more maturely than his age. He is really a bit like you." Jiang Xue said.

"Speaking of this little tenth brother, his birth was truly miraculous. When he was born, the umbilical cord was wrapped around his neck and almost killed him. The imperial physician shook his head and said there was no hope for him, and suggested sending him away directly.

But Empress Xiurong refused to believe in evil and stayed with him all night. As a result, the little guy miraculously came back to life. People from the entire hospital came to see him and said it was a huge miracle.

"It's truly a miracle that he managed to escape death." Jiang Xue thought to herself that this little guy's experience resonated with her own.

Her interest in the Tenth Prince grew stronger and stronger.

"This child has been different from others since he was young. He is much more sensible than Eleven, who is the same age. I remember that on his sixth birthday, Xiao Yan held a birthday party for him and asked him what gift he wanted. Guess what he said?" Xiao Zhan kept it a secret.

"Judging from the way you asked, what this kid is talking about is definitely not an ordinary thing."

"That's right." Xiao Zhan smiled and recalled Xiao Jin's appearance at that time.

"My son has only one wish, I hope my mother and sister can live a peaceful and happy life."

The six-year-old kid clasped his hands together, lowered his head, and his clear voice echoed in the Xiurong Hall, with a firm tone in his voice.

"He didn't make a wish for himself, but instead asked for a talisman for Xirong Niangniang and Shiyi."

After hearing this, Jiang Xue's favorable impression of this filial and benevolent Tenth Prince doubled.

"As a member of the royal family, he knew that the fate of the royal daughters was mostly rough. The princesses seemed to have no worries about food and clothing, but in fact they might become victims of marriage alliances, marrying far away in the frontier just to exchange for the prosperity of Beiling.

Eleven is still young and doesn't have this worry, but in a few years, she may not be able to escape this disaster. Wen Yuan has been fighting for this guarantee for her from the beginning, so that she doesn't have to endure the pain of being a pawn. In addition, Sun Taiwei is about to retire, so he did this to ensure that Sun Xiurong will have no worries in her later years. "

This move was well thought out and flawless. As an elder brother, Xiao Zhan admired Xiao Jin from the bottom of his heart.

"This child has farsightedness and is so sensible that it makes people feel distressed." He is obviously only a seven-year-old child, but he is thoughtful. I wonder what he has experienced in the palace to become so mature.

"What do you think his performance will be like during this hunt?" Jiang Xue asked, lifting the car curtain again and looking at the young yet heroic face.

"Let's wait and see." Xiao Zhan responded with a smile. He also had high expectations for this child.

When the team was halfway through its journey, it was already noon, and everyone stopped in a shady place to rest.

Everyone got out of the car to get some fresh air.

Xiao Zhan went to Xiao Yun to discuss the plan after entering the enclosure, while Jiang Xue took two maids to a clear pond for a walk.

"Princess Gong, you are here too."

I thought the pond would be quiet, but I unexpectedly ran into Wu Meifeng who was also there while strolling.

Wu Meifeng had deep hatred towards Jiang Xue because of the last time her pet was killed. Seeing Jiang Xue coming to this secluded place alone, she planned to follow her quietly and teach Jiang Xue a lesson.

"Fudong, Xiaochun, let's go."

There was no one else around, and Jiang Xue was too lazy to play along with her. She didn't even look at her and turned around to leave.

However, just as he took a step, two flying knives whizzed at him from behind.

bang bang.

Fu Dong reacted quickly and threw his hidden weapon. In a flash, a crisp collision sound was heard.

Hidden weapons and flying knives were nailed to the tree trunks on both sides. The blades were flashing a faint green light, and it was obvious at a glance that they were poisoned.

"Jue, kill them for me!"

Wu Meifeng changed her usual gentle image, revealed a ferocious face, and gave orders to the man beside her.

The two maids, Xiaochun and Fudong, are really an eyesore, so it would be better to get rid of them.

"Wu Meifeng, you really remind me of the past."

Jiang Xue turned around, and his clear and deep eyes fell on her, like an ancient deep well, revealing an elusive mystery and chill.

She remembered that the last time she saw such obvious jealousy and resentment on her face was before she died.

"Jiang Xue, how can you have everything I dream of? Isn't it because you are the princess of Qian Kingdom? Now, you are finished, hahaha! Everything you have will belong to me, and will be mine."

In the dream, she was lying on the cold ground, spitting black blood. Wu Meifeng grabbed her hair from behind and pulled her up forcefully. The hideous and crazy smile on her face at that time was unforgettable for her.

Miss you?

When Wu Meifeng heard her strange words, she couldn't help feeling a little scared.

This was the first time she had openly concealed her true emotions in front of Jiang Xue, so there was no such thing as nostalgia.

Is this woman deliberately trying to confuse her and make her lose her composure?

Bang! Ding!

On the side, Fu Dong and Xiao Chun joined forces to fight against the Absolute who moved like a ghost. The sound of weapons clashing revealed the fierceness of the battle.

This pool of water is some distance away from the main force, so even if there is any noise, no one may hear it.

Therefore, no matter how fierce the fight was, almost no one would come to check.

Wu Meifeng saw this clearly and planned to come secretly to find trouble. Anyway, there were no witnesses, and if something happened, she could just find an excuse to get away with it, and no one would suspect her.

"Wu Meifeng, I advise you to stop your thugs."

There was a threatening light flashing in Jiang Xue's slightly narrowed eyes.

But Wu Meifeng was only concerned with regaining the face she lost in the palace last time, and completely ignored the warning in her eyes.

"I think you are afraid that your two slaves will be hurt by Jue. I tell you, today, I will decide their lives. I want to see how long you, Jiang Xue, can be so arrogant without these two girls."

Her face was distorted, she had completely lost her usual calmness, and the madness in her eyes was sickening.
