Part 1: Intertwined Time and Space Chapter 4: Trip to Li Country
Chapter 329 Hunting (2)
When Mr. Ji came, he glanced at Yue Qing first. He must have some questions in his heart, but he didn't ask.
Seeing this popular person's calm and relaxed look, Yue Qing felt more favorable to him.
Qin Yihan stepped forward and said, "Congratulations, young master, for winning the competition."
"No, no, it's just a competition. If you come out on top, Mr. Qin will not be too late to congratulate you."
"It seems that the young master is determined to win this one."
"I don't dare. With Prince Qin and other heroes in front of me, how dare I say this?"
Prince Qin said: "Master Ji thinks highly of me. King Bowei is here today, so it's my turn."
King Bowei said: "I have no intention of participating, as long as you are better than yours."
Prince Qin said: "That's a pity. I wanted to ask for advice."
Someone came over from the side: "Your Majesty, don't be ashamed of your words. I haven't passed this test yet, and I still want to ask King Bowei for advice. You are still far behind."
Prince Qin looked at the man: "Marquis Dingyuan, we were tied just now. It's still undecided who will win and who will lose. You said this as if I am weaker than you."
Marquis Dingyuan said: "It's indeed a tie. It's just that I am better than you. I don't dare to challenge King Bowei. You have to act according to your ability."
Yue Qing grinned beside her.
She stood very close to King Bowei, not to mention her undisguised smile, which immediately attracted everyone's attention.
Prince Qin said angrily: "Why are you laughing, Princess?"
"Ah? It's nothing, I just think it's fun for you to talk. So do men in Li country usually communicate like this?"
Marquis Dingyuan smiled and said: "This must be Princess Shun'an. This is the first time I have seen such a generous and lovely girl."
"Really, thank you for complimenting me."
Marquis Dingyuan continued: "I heard that women in the villa do not hide in the courtyard from outsiders. Hasn't the princess never seen how men communicate with each other?"
Yue Qing said: "You are right. The women of the villa do not hide in the courtyard, but do I have a special status? The men I usually see do not dare to talk casually in front of me. Each one is more honest than the other Your duty is to show your best side.”
"Oh, really? I wonder what's so special about the status of the princess?"
"Why is it so special? Well, if someone talks to me like Prince Qin does in the villa, I guess he won't be able to speak anymore."
Prince Qin never thought that she would involve him, "Why does the princess always hold on to me? I don't remember anything I said to offend you."
Yue Qing waved her hand: "Don't worry, don't worry, I'm just making an analogy. I don't mean to blame you. If someone offends me, just bring him back."
Prince Qin snorted coldly and had no intention of arguing with her here.
Qin Yihan interjected at this time: "Why are you just talking here? Young Master Ji won this competition. It's time to pick the winner's reward. We can't forget this."
Mr. Ji Xiaogong said: "This prince, Marquis Dingyuan and King Bowei are all here. I am embarrassed to choose."
Prince Qin said: "Don't worry about us, just win the challenge."
Mr. Ji was a little weak and pointed at someone casually, "Just him."
Yue Qing looked and saw a prisoner tied to a pillar.
When the prisoner saw that he had been chosen, he looked a little scared and his breathing became rapid.
Qin Yihan smiled and said: "Okay, why don't you quickly put the person down and give it to Mr. Ji."
Someone immediately stepped forward and put the prisoner down, put on shackles, put a chain around his neck, and pushed him over.
The man was pushed to everyone's feet and stared at them.
"Kill if you want, you Li dogs."
Qin Yihan stepped forward and kicked the prisoner, and asked Mr. Ji, "What do you plan to do with this enemy prisoner?"
Mr. Ji Xiaogong said: "Our Duke's mansion has no shortage of slaves, so let's give them to the hunting ground as prey."
Yue Qing looked at him in surprise.
"Prey? How can a human be treated as prey?"
Qin Yihan smiled and said: "Of course I rushed to the hunting ground and was driven and hunted like those animals."
Yue Qing was stunned. Qin Yihan looked at her look and said amusedly: "Why, is the princess afraid?"
Yue Qing looked at him coldly and said: "It's not that I'm afraid, I'm just a little surprised. I've heard this for the first time that you can still treat people as prey. Now that you've gained experience, it's right to go out for a walk. Otherwise, where would you be able to see them? Such a wonderful picture.”
He turned around and glanced at King Bowei, and asked with a smile: "There are such interesting things in Li country, why have I never heard of King Bowei mentioning it?"
King Bowei said with a dark face: "Princess Shun'an, there is no need to ridicule me, I have never regarded prisoners as prey."
After speaking, he looked at Qin Yihan and said, "Young Master Qin, it's better to stop talking nonsense. It's extremely stupid to smear your prime minister's government without knowing it."
Qin Yihan was about to speak when Yue Qing answered: "No, I think he is quite frank. Why should he cover up what actually happened? Although war is a matter for men and women don't understand. But I am still a little curious. Is this killing of prisoners unique to the Li country, or is it also common in other countries?"
Qin Yihan glanced at King Bowei dissatisfiedly, but he didn't care to talk to him at this moment. After hearing what Yue Qing said, he immediately asked: "Do you think the princess sympathizes with these prisoners?"
Yue Qing looked at him and was not fooled. She said interestingly: "How could that be? I just lamented the cruelty of war. After all, when you treat prisoners of other countries like this, you must have done your best to treat the soldiers of your own country." Other countries are prepared to treat you like this. No wonder you always say that this is not a place for women. It is indeed a thought that only men can have.
How men understand war is a matter for men. As a woman, I cannot go to the battlefield on behalf of those soldiers, and of course I will not make random comments here. "
A group of men around her had different expressions when they heard what she said, and they refreshed their understanding of Princess Shun'an in their hearts. Especially King Bowei, with a smile in his eyes.
Marquis Dingyuan said directly: "What Princess Shun'an said is really good. Her magnanimity and insight are admirable. If the princess is a man, she must lose to me."
Yue Qing glanced at him, "Really? I don't dare to have such an idea. It's too powerful and it won't hurt the men's face."
Marquis Dingyuan laughed heartily. "The princess' words are really interesting."
Yue Qing looked at Qin Yihan's slightly disappointed expression and continued: "As for these prisoners, not only do I have no sympathy for them, but I am very interested in the hunt."
Everyone looked at him.
Yue Qing walked to the front and said to everyone: "Our Villa also wants to participate in this competition."
Chang Ge frowned: "Miss, I'm afraid it's not appropriate."
Yue Qing looked at him: "Chang Ge, is there any rule in the villa that I can't participate in this kind of competition?"
"Although there are no rules, there never have been..."
Before he could finish speaking, Yue Qing pointed at him and said, "That's it. Since there are no rules, you'd better not interfere too much, otherwise I'll be angry."
Chang Ge saw some impatience on her brows and stopped talking. The last time Yue Qing showed such an expression, he was kicked out of the courtyard of the palace.
Prince Qin smiled and said, "I wonder how the princess wants to participate?"
"Of course the rules are the same as yours. The winner picks the spoils. When I was in the villa, I wanted the best in everything. Now I can't be any worse. I want to pick the most powerful prisoners."
As he spoke, he pointed to the person hanging there by the chains.
Everyone looked.
Marquis Dingyuan smiled and said: "The princess has good vision. This man is an enemy general, very powerful. It took King Bowei a lot of effort to catch him."
"Oh, really? That's better, it's him."
Marquis Dingyuan said: "The princess may not be able to do what she wishes."
"Why, you can't choose this person? Are you hanging him here just to let others choose?"
Marquis Dingyuan smiled and said: "It's not that I can't choose, it's just that the main purpose of hanging here is not for this."
"What's that for?"
Qin Yihan continued: "Of course it's to humiliate him and let him see his men being killed with his own eyes. Who makes him so stubborn? He won't give in no matter how hard he fights."
Yue Qing rolled her eyes.
Prince Qin said: "It's not impossible for the princess to choose this person, as long as he comes out on top in the hunting field."
Yue Qing asked: "Then how can we be considered to come out on top?"
Prince Qin did not answer her question, but asked: "How can a woman like the princess participate in the hunt? She can't go into battle herself."
Yue Qing continued: "Although I am a woman, there are men around me."
Prince Qin: "Are they your guards? I would like to remind the princess that good martial arts does not mean that you can win the competition. After all, hunting relies on your ability to ride and shoot."
Yue Qing rolled her eyes, put the fan in her hand on her chin and turned it a few times, then looked back at Qi Jiao and the others: "Qi Jiao, did you hear that?"
Qi Jiao smiled and said, "Of course I heard it."
Yue Qing asked: "Although I have seen you riding horses on weekdays, do you know how to shoot arrows?"
"Don't worry, young lady, you're no worse than the people here."
Yue Qing nodded and looked back at the Prince of Qin, "Did the Prince hear this?"
Prince Qin didn't speak.
Qin Yihan, who was next to him, continued: "It's really shameless to say that a few guards know how to ride and shoot."
Yue Qing said: "You don't have to worry about us."
Qin Yihan was about to make some more taunts when the prince came over and said, "Why are they all here and not going to join the hunt? Is there anything interesting happening?"
