Chapter 346: Brother Jiu’s Means, Fat Boy Walking a Bird (1)

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

When Shadow Thirteen followed the clues and found Helian Qi’s hiding place, Helian Qi had already been shot into a sieve by the two idiots. The Eldest Prince and Prince Cheng had left to find other prey. Before they left, they were still complaining that the other party’s arrows were too lousy and could not even hit a single hair.

Shadow Thirteen brought the dying Helian Qi to Yan Jiuchao.

Yan Jiuchao looked at the fainted sieve in front of him. “…”

“Who did it?” Yan Jiuchao asked.

Shadow Thirteen cupped his hands and said, “It’s the arrows of the Eldest Prince and Prince Cheng.”

When everyone entered the venue, they would receive their own bows and arrows. Every arrow had a corresponding label on it. The intention of this was to better distinguish who shot the prey. Shadow Thirteen only said that the arrows belonged to Prince Cheng and the Eldest Prince, but he did not say that this matter was done by the two of them. After all, their Young Master’s idiot act was fake, but the two of them were rookies. How could an expert like Helian Qi let two rookies shoot him like this? That was too unlucky. He was shot even while lying down?

What Shadow Thirteen did not know was that Helian Qi was really shot even when he was lying down!

“Could someone have taken their arrows and framed them?” Shadow Thirteen asked.

Yan Jiuchao looked at him coldly. “Other than me, who else here has the guts?”

Killing the envoy of Nanzhao was no small matter. Other than their little lunatic, no one else would be stupid enough to do it. But was it really good to flatter himself like this? After all, he was already married. Couldn’t he have some shame?

Shadow Thirteen suppressed the urge to twitch his lips and asked his shameless Young Master, “What should we do now?”

Yan Jiuchao looked down at Helian Qi and said calmly, “Make it clean.”

Shadow Thirteen understood what Yan Jiuchao meant and pulled Helian Qi down.

A certain young master touched the bow in his hand openly. Well, he could hunt happily now.

The news of Helian Qi’s misfortune did not spread so quickly, but the “battle results” of the hunting ground kept spreading to the ornamental garden. It was mainly because the Empress was very concerned and had specially instructed the eunuchs on duty.

When the eunuch who sent the message came to the ornamental garden again, the Empress was leading a group of people on a path covered in cobblestones. In front of them was the Hundred Birds Garden, covered by a green shed with small birds flying around inside. The three little fat children had long lost their patience and went to walk the birds.

Fu Ling and Zi Su followed.

The Ninth Princess quietly let Yu Wan hold her hand, her face red.

“Who hunted the most?” The Empress asked with a smile.

The eunuch said truthfully, “It’s the Third Prince.”

The Third Prince was very heroic. The prey he obtained was comparable to the Second Prince of Xiongnu. It had to be known that the Xiongnu were a race on horseback. Riding and shooting were their forte. Just like how the people of the Central Plains were proficient in the Four Books and Five Classics, it was almost impossible for outsiders to compare.

“His Majesty asked about the Third Princess Consort just now and asked why she didn’t come to the hunting ground. When he found out that her mother was sick, His Majesty specially got someone to send ginseng over,” the eunuch who sent the message said softly.

“Yes, Old Third is not bad. He has made our Great Zhou proud.” The Empress’s expression was very happy. As for whether she was so happy in her heart, it was unknown.

When Worthy Consort Xu heard the Empress’s words, she laughed softly. “The Third Prince is so brave. I think the other princes are not bad, right?”

“This…” The eunuch was in a dilemma. The only thing that was not bad was the Fourth Prince, but the Eldest Prince and Prince Cheng had been wandering around the forest. Prince Cheng had good literary skills, so it was not strange that he could not hunt. However, the Eldest Prince did not have any literary skills or martial skills. This was a little awkward.

“What did His Highnesses hunt?” Worthy Consort Xu asked coldly.

The eunuch secretly sized up the Empress’s expression. Unfortunately, the Empress could not refuse this question. The eunuch could only brace himself and say, “Fourth Prince hunted a pangolin, a pair of bamboo chickens, and a wild rabbit.”

At this point, those who knew their place should stop here. But was Worthy Consort Xu a sensible person?

“What about the Eldest Prince and Prince Cheng?” Worthy Consort Xu asked relentlessly.

The eunuch broke out in cold sweat for himself and said, “There’s no news of the two princes. I think we missed something when we calculated. I’ll go take a look later.”

The Empress’s initial intention of paying attention to the commotion in the hunting ground was to know how much her son had hunted and how the results were compared to his brothers. However, the moment the eunuch said that, she realized that her son had lost to his brothers again. It was not good for the other women to embarrass her in public, so they all tactfully shut up. Only Worthy Consort Xu insisted on showing the Eldest Prince’s incompetence in the open. It was really a big slap to the Empress.
