"Fifth brother, this way!"
At this time, a clear male voice happened to come from behind.
Everyone was led to look up and saw a handsome young man in red robe standing on the steps. He was waving as he approached.
"Brother Ajiu, I'm going to get on the carriage first!"
Mingyue seemed to dislike this person very much, so she whispered to Rong Jiu and left.
"Behave properly and don't make the princess angry!"
In Rong Jiu's heart, Mingyue is just a arrogant but cute little girl.
He specifically asked this for the sake of the little maid.
"Slave, please listen to the master!"
Taoye thought to herself, of course she didn't dare to offend that golden man, but whether he would be angry or not was really not something she could decide.
Eight maids followed the extremely gorgeous carriage, but only Ming Yue and two other maids got up. One of them was Chuntao, whom Tao Ye had met several times.
"Just sit over there!"
Taoye followed Mingyue's wishes and sat on the soft stool on the left.
The soft stools were covered with woolen mattresses and were very comfortable.
Before putting down the curtain, Mingyue waved to Rong Jiu who was looking over.
Rong Jiu saw that the little maid had entered the carriage and gave Mingyue a gentle smile.
"Fifth brother, that girl Mingyue is pestering you again!"
The carriage turned around, Rong Jiu withdrew his gaze, but the young man in red robe next to him had an unhappy look on his face.
"What's bothering me? How old are you? Don't get angry every time you see the bright moon!"
Knowing that these two people had not dealt with each other since childhood, Rong Jiu didn't take it seriously and scolded them casually before going to ride her horse.
It's a pity that this time there is someone who loves theater next to me.
"Gu San, you were indeed wrong just now. The person your fifth brother was worried about just now was not Princess Mingyue!"
After Pei Weinan said this, he felt the cool gaze from his friend, and quickly spread his fan: "Don't say it, don't say it!", and walked slowly towards his servant.
"Brother Pei, what do you mean?"
The boy in red scratched the back of his head, looking puzzled.
"Ignore him, get on your horse, everyone is almost gone!"
While he was talking, most of the young master in front of the door had already left.
"Let's go, we can't let them get the upper hand!"
When the young man in red saw this, he slapped his head and whistled, and a tall horse with shiny red coat ran in front of him. The horse seemed to be very humane and did not forget to avoid people when running.
But even so, the horses held by the attendants were frightened and became a little impatient.
Several of them were getting on their horses with the support of servants, but missed their kick and almost fell off.
Just when everyone was about to curse, they all turned their heads when they saw the young man in red on the horse, and could only curse secretly in their hearts.
The boy in red raised his whip and caught up with most of the team in a moment.
Rong Jiu and Pei Weinan, however, were walking leisurely and lazily in the middle. Those following behind them were all delicate young masters from the academy. They could only let their servants lead their horses and walk slowly.
Autumn hunting officially started at the end of the morning, and the hunting ground was only ten miles away. Everyone was not in a hurry, talking and laughing while admiring the mountain scenery.
The maids sitting in the green-covered carriages were also very interested. They opened the curtains and looked outside. Normally, they would not have the chance to come out.
But the peach leaves beside the bright moon here have no intention of looking at the scenery outside the curtain.
After the carriage had traveled almost a mile, the princess leaned on the soft pillow behind her. Chuntao and another maid got up and knelt in front of them, beating their legs for their master.
In this way, apart from the bright moon in the center, only the peach leaves were still sitting peacefully in the carriage.
Just now at the entrance of the academy, as soon as the curtain in front was lowered, the princess gave her a cold look.
She knew that this was the result of Miss Xie San's words just now.
Of course, it may also be that this noble master doesn't like him.
"Chuntao, bring me a cup of tea!"
In the carriage, a lazy voice sounded.
"Yes, princess!"
Chuntao was about to get up when she suddenly thought of something: "Princess, this water needs to be boiled now. If I look at this tea, I can't beat your legs. This carriage is bumpy, and your jade body is easily tired..."
"There is another person in the carriage!"
Mingyue looked at the peach leaves on one side.
"But Miss Taoye is the person in front of the Fifth Young Master, this..."
"The slave is willing to serve the princess. As long as the princess doesn't think the slave is vulgar, why don't you two sisters serve you properly?"
Taoye stood up and knelt in front of the couch before Chuntao finished speaking, and kowtowed respectfully.
"Then thank you for your hard work!"
Chuntao felt very happy after receiving the signal from her master. She stood up and sat back on the soft stool on the right, looking at the tea that no one needed to keep an eye on.
Tao Ye was not bad at serving others. He walked a few steps to the couch and gave Ming Yue a gentle and appropriate kick on his legs.
"You go on, too. You're so clumsy, you might as well be doing the work!"
After a while, another maid was also rushed to the side by Mingyue and sat down.
Taoye was left kneeling on the ground alone.
"Use some strength!"
"Hey, why are you using so much effort!"
"Easer!"
"Heavier!"
…
No matter what kind of force Taoye used, even if it was the most comfortable force, Mingyue was not satisfied and found faults all the way.
Taoye didn't know how many times she had asked for forgiveness, and her knees were getting more and more painful.
It's not that she couldn't bear the pain, she could naturally endure the pain, but no matter how stable the carriage was, there were still bumps. She couldn't feel it when she was sitting, but it was very clear when she was kneeling.
Taoye struggled to steady her body and adjusted the strength of her hands according to the princess's words. Soon, there was a thin layer of cold sweat on her face.
"Okay, go back and sit down!"
When there was only one mile left from the hunting ground, Taoye was finally allowed to get up.
"Thank you, princess!"
Taoye moved her knees by kowtowing.
When she stood up, Taoye could feel the numbness and pain slowly extending from her knees to her entire body. When she almost fell to the ground, luckily she was well prepared and managed to steady herself.
Ming Yue didn't drink the cup of tea she asked for until the carriage stopped.
"When I meet Brother Ajiu later, you know what to say, right?"
After getting off the carriage, Mingyue warned in a cold voice to Taoye, whose face was still a bit pale.
"My slave understands!"
Taoye responded timidly with a look of fear.
"Princess, the young master asked the villain to take Miss Taoye over!"
At this time, Gui Yun also ran up to him.
"What's wrong with the girl? She looks so bad!"
After walking a few steps, Guiyun couldn't help but express concern when he saw Taoye walking very slowly and her face was pale.
"It's okay, maybe I'm not used to riding in a carriage and I'm a little dizzy!"
Taoye chuckled lightly and then quickened her pace.
"Why do you look so bad?"
After entering the tent, Rong Jiu asked strangely when she saw the little maid's appearance.
"The carriage is a little bumpy. My slave is in poor health. I have kept the young master waiting for a long time!"
