After waiting for another half an hour, seeing that it was getting late, everyone was ready to retreat to their residence, but Li Zetian saw that Li Jingxiao had not come back, so he did not give the order to leave.
It was late autumn now, and the night was getting chilly. Li Yu stepped forward to persuade Li Zetian to return to the palace first.
Li Zetian was worried and did not agree.
After waiting for another two-quarters of an hour, when night fell, Li Jingxiao's team returned Shanshan.
Li Jingxiao's face was stained, and his clothes were scratched, but he was in good spirits and full of energy.
"Father! My son is back!"
Li Zetian finally saw that Li Jingxiao had returned safely. He was relieved but also a little angry. He scolded with a straight face: "Everyone was waiting for you, why did you come so late?"
Li Jingxiao was not afraid at all, and said with a smile: "I ran into a big guy, and it took some strength to knock him down, which made my father worried."
Everyone's attention was focused on the huge thing covered by linen behind him. One of the guards lifted the linen, and a huge spotted tiger suddenly appeared in front of everyone's eyes.
Someone immediately exclaimed: "It's actually a tiger!"
Li Zetian also showed an expression of surprise, which really took a lot of effort to capture.
"very good!"
In the eyes of outsiders, Li Jingxiao was an ignorant and dandy prince, but he actually hunted the mountain king. This was almost beyond everyone's expectations. Everyone started to admire him, much more energetic than when Li Jingxing brought back the gray wolf.
Li Jingxing had a smile on his face, and everything seemed to be as usual, until Li Jingxiao glanced at him seemingly unintentionally, revealing a trace of killing intent that only Li Jingxiao could see.
Li Jingxiao quickly looked away, ran to Li Zetian and said, "Father, let's see if my son's tiger can win the first place today?"
Li Zetian quickly glanced at Li Jingxing. Seeing that Li Jingxing was calm and composed, without any resentment or jealousy, he nodded and said: "You are number one, and the bloody horse belongs to you."
"Thank you, Father!"
Everyone came forward to congratulate him.
Li Zetian was afraid that Li Jingxing would be disappointed, so he encouraged him: "The bloody horse is still there, the prince will continue to work hard tomorrow."
Li Jingxing said with a smile: "My son, I deserve it. My fourth brother came out on top. I couldn't ask for more."
Li Zetian became more and more satisfied with Li Jingxing.
Li Jingxiao's eyes darkened.
His good second brother is really getting better and better at acting, and he even deceived his father.
Li Zetian gave the order and everyone returned to their residence happily.
The kitchen had already been busy. Half an hour later, roast suckling pigs were delivered to everyone, and Li Jingxing got two portions.
Chiyang had a small day today. He felt uncomfortable all over and looked gloomy. He finally felt better after seeing the steaming barbecue.
Li Jingxing put a piece in her bowl and said with a smile, "Eat it while it's hot."
Chiyang was shocked by his thoughtfulness and stared at him twice before lowering his head and taking a bite.
【Why are you so nice to me? It will scare people to death, okay! 】
Li Jingxing was speechless. He was wrong to be nice to her. Was it right to be cold and sarcastic all the time?
[But having said that, today’s little wild boar is more delicious than yesterday’s venison. 】
Li Jingxing felt proud.
He personally ordered it to be captured alive, how can it not be delicious?
"If you like it, I'll catch two more tomorrow."
Chi Yang quickly shook his head: "Your Highness, you don't have to be like this. The fourth prince has bad intentions, and your Highness should keep a closer eye on him."
[It’s too unprofessional. 】
[Men should focus on their careers! 】
Li Jingxing is dissatisfied, why is he not doing his job properly?
The plan had to be implemented step by step, so he couldn't do anything but stare at the fourth child.
Chiyang thought for a while and asked, "Your Highness is not angry today?"
The fourth prince obviously hit Li Jingxing on the face intentionally, and she broke into a cold sweat at that time. Fortunately, Li Jingxing calmed down and did not show any dissatisfaction or jealousy.
Li Jingxing sneered: "He just wants to provoke me to attack him. Even if I wanted to, I would not be stupid enough to go against him in front of my father."
Chiyang nodded secretly.
[Yes, I am becoming more and more calm. It seems that I have a high chance of making a comeback in this life. 】
Li Jingxing was very proud.
Of course, with Chiyang's trump card in hand, if he still loses to Li Jingxiao, he will die without the shame to see him meet the ancestors of the Li family.
Li Jingxing was originally prepared for Gu Qingzhi to come to "persuad" him, but he didn't see Gu Qingzhi coming until the lights were turned off. He immediately understood that the other party's plan to retreat in order to advance made him anxious.
He was not anxious at all, it was Li Jingxiao who should be anxious.
In the courtyard of Prince Duan's Mansion, Li Jingxiao, Gu Qingzhi and Li Jing'an still gathered together to discuss matters.
Li Jingxiao felt a strong sense of crisis at Li Jingxing's various changes and frowned: "Li Jingxing is still calm. He must find a way to add fire tomorrow."
Gu Qingzhi remained silent.
Li Jingxing's current state of mind is much more stable than in the previous life, which she still doesn't understand.
Did Chiyang have such a great influence on Li Jingxing?
Li Jing'an said: "If you can still hold back like this, it will be difficult to get angry again."
Li Jingxiao thought for a moment, looked at Gu Qingzhi and said, "Zhi'er, I need you to perform a play with me tomorrow."
Gu Qingzhi nodded: "No problem."
...
Li Zetian considered that Li Jingxing did not get the sweat horse, so he reluctantly took out one as today's prize.
To be honest, Li Jingxing actually has no obsession with sweaty horses, but it is rare that Li Zetian has the heart to take care of his emotions, so he still plans to show it.
After Li Jingxing entered the dense forest, he went straight to the area with the most ferocious beasts. After spending most of the day, he finally hunted a white fox with pure fur.
When he reached the place where he had to pass out of the forest, Gu Qingzhi ran towards him from the opposite side as if he was in a panic. After recovering from the shock, he said: "Your Highness, save me!"
Li Jingxing glanced at Gu Qingzhi, then saw Li Jingxiao riding out from the opposite side.
Li Jingxiao reined in his horse and said in a stiff tone: "Brother, please stop meddling in other people's business!"
Gu Qingzhi stood next to Li Jingxing's horse, looked up at Li Jingxing, and choked up: "The fourth prince wants to do something wrong to me, please save my life!"
Li Jingxing didn't say anything. After a long silence, he said with a gloomy face: "What does fourth brother mean by this? Is it possible that he wants to rob the woman?"
Li Jingxiao sneered and said: "She is just a concubine of the Prime Minister's Mansion. How can she be wronged by following me? I advise the second brother to just mind his own business and not to meddle in other people's business!"
After that, he immediately approached Gu Qingzhi.
Gu Qingzhi hid behind Li Jingxing's horse and shouted anxiously: "Your Highness!"
Li Jingxing waved his hand, and the guards behind him unsheathed their swords.
Li Jingxiao's bodyguards also put on a posture that they were about to fight.
The two sides were at war with each other, but no one took the lead in taking action, because both sides knew very well that whoever took the first action today would lose everything in front of his father!
