"Chu Tang, I heard that your fourth brother won the first place in the two subjects of imperial archery in the Imperial Academy's monthly examination not long ago?" The eldest princess smiled, her eyes falling on Ye Yunfeng, "Why don't you let me know later? Is he going to play too?"
Ye Chutang looked away.
Ah Feng has been very curious about this polo match for a long time, so he can try it out.
Even if the eldest princess didn't speak up, he was still qualified to play based on his monthly exam results in the Imperial Academy.
Ye Chutang rolled his eyes: "Ah Feng, why don't you thank the eldest princess quickly?"
Knowing that Sister A agreed, Ye Yunfeng couldn't hide the excitement in his eyebrows. He stood up and saluted solemnly: "Yunfeng Xie, Princess!"
The more the eldest princess looked at the young man, the more satisfied she became.
"Feng Zhang has praised you a lot. You will come on stage later and let everyone see what you are capable of."
Ye Yunfeng, a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers, immediately responded when he heard the call, turned around and went to the sidelines under the guidance of the palace attendants.
Murong Ye, who had just changed his clothes and was about to mount his horse, saw Ye Yunfeng striding towards him out of the corner of his eye, and his eyelids twitched.
——Why is this Ye Yunfeng still lingering? ?
Ye Yunfeng raised an eyebrow at him and smiled, then walked to the other team.
He is the youngest among this group of teenagers, and today is the first time he has made an official appearance. However, the news that he defeated Murong Ye in the monthly exam has long been spread among the young masters of the capital's aristocratic families.
So when they saw him at this time, many people were very curious.
The teams for the polo match are formed by oneself, and usually they are all well-connected. Especially for the team that Ye Yunfeng went to, many people had disliked Murong Ye for a long time, and their attitude towards Ye Yunfeng was naturally much cordial.
Ye Yunfeng was also a familiar person, and he became close to them in no time. Someone even handed him a stick and explained the rules of the game to him.
The eldest princess couldn't help but look at Xiao Wu, who was sitting obediently eating snacks next to her, Ye Jingyan, who was gentle and reserved, and Ye Chutang, who was calm, gentle and gentle from beginning to end.
...The four siblings have really different personalities, but they all have their own merits, which makes it hard not to like them.
I really don’t know how Ye Chutang, who was only fourteen years old, survived with these three young siblings and raised them so well.
At this time, Princess Qinyang also came.
Seeing Ye Chutang next to the eldest princess, she suddenly showed a look of surprise and walked over quickly.
"I knew the eldest princess was the best! She specially arranged our places together!"
Since King Yannan was not in the capital, Princess Qinyang naturally followed the eldest princess.
Ye Chutang looked at her and asked in a warm voice: "Princess Qinyang didn't seem happy just now?"
When Princess Qinyang came over just now, her pretty face was slightly depressed, her lips were tight, and her emotions were obvious.
If others asked this, Princess Qinyang would probably ignore it, but this was Ye Chutang, so she was naturally different from others.
She shook her head: "It's nothing, but Concubine Rong is still not in good health. I originally thought she would come together today, but unfortunately the imperial doctor said she needs to rest and not be exposed to the wind, so she gave up."
As she spoke, she caught a glimpse of Xiao Chengxuan not far away, her eyebrows furrowed, and she whispered, "It's probably the imperial concubine, mother and son who stole the show again today."
Ye Chutang followed her gaze and said, "Oh?"
Princess Qinyang hummed and raised her chin: "That one over there, do you see it? The second prince Xiao Chengxuan. His mother-in-law is the most favored concubine today."
The Queen is your first wife. Unfortunately, she died in childbirth when she gave birth to the eldest prince. As a result, the eldest prince was not favored by your majesty and died when he was less than ten years old.
For example, the noble concubine is a tireless favor, and the second prince is smart, smart, and capable in both civil and military affairs. He is the most powerful contender for the crown prince's position.
Concubine Rong was the biological mother of the third prince, but she was not of high birth and was often sick. Although the third prince was also capable, he was ultimately weak and inferior.
There was also a fourth prince who accidentally fell off his horse when he was a child. He became lame in one leg and was unable to compete for the throne.
The second prince and the third prince have been fighting openly and secretly for a long time, and the undercurrent has already become turbulent.
Ye Chutang nodded clearly: "I see. So the princess came here early today and went to visit Concubine Rong before entering the palace?"
"Yes! Concubine Rong treated me very well. By the way, you may not know that once the eldest princess was injured and had a high fever and fell into a coma. She stayed there for two days and two nights! It's just that she has been in poor health these years. That’s why I don’t often visit the eldest princess’s mansion anymore.”
Princess Qinyang thought it was a pity when she mentioned this.
Ye Chutang's thoughts flashed through his mind.
If you are not close to someone, you may not know these old things.
She raised her eyes slightly and glanced at Shen Yanchuan, who was sitting diagonally opposite.
It turns out that the eldest princess and Concubine Rong still have such a past. So, those people who killed Shen Yanchuan in Jiangling before...
Shen Yanchuan seemed to realize something and turned his eyes to look over.
Ye Chutang lowered his eyes to cover up the waves in his eyes.
Maybe... apart from helping to take care of Xiao Wu, Shen Yanchuan can have other uses?
…
Shen Yanchuan put down his cup and leaned back.
Xie Anbai had just thrown Xie Yulin away when he saw Shen Yanchuan's thoughtful expression and stopped in his tracks.
"...Is there something wrong with me?" Xie Anbai asked uncertainly.
Shen Yanchuan didn't even look at him.
"Not now, but when Marquis Zhongyong comes, there may be."
Xie Anbai: "..."
What a loss! Listen, what are these words?
"Then what are you planning there?" Xie An opened his fan with a white swipe and stepped back.
Every time Shen Yanchuan showed such an expression, he knew someone was about to get involved.
Shen Yanchuan smiled.
"It's not that I'm planning anything."
He raised his eyebrows slightly.
"Someone is plotting against me."
…
When Han Yao came to the polo field, he immediately looked at Ye Heng's position.
His father has been busy preparing for polo matches and palace banquets recently, so Han Yao is very familiar with the layout and arrangements here.
As a result, Ye Chutang was not seen.
Han Yao was stunned: "Where is she?"
The boy reminded in a low voice: "Sir, look over there -"
Han Yao turned his head and looked closely, and then he saw Ye Chutang right next to the eldest princess!
His eyes widened in shock.
What's going on?
Ye Chutang, how could she——
Before he could figure it out, a cry of pain suddenly came from the right rear, followed by the sound of horse hooves!
Han Yao subconsciously turned around and saw a horse suddenly breaking free from the reins and running quickly towards this side!
The horse was startled!
With this idea flashing through his mind, Han Yao immediately grabbed the boy, blocked him in front of him, and retreated quickly at the same time!
The boy didn't react in time and was hit hard by the horse, which then trampled over him!
puff--!
The boy spit out a mouthful of blood and his sternum was deeply sunken!
Affected by this, the horse actually turned around and ran wildly in the direction of the eldest princess and others!
