Gong Lingyu had said so much earlier and had stood in the cold wind for so long. She was a little tired, so she did not reject Zhan Liuye’s good intentions and left with him.
On the other side, the hunt had officially started. Crown Prince Rong Jinghua led the rest of the princes into the forest to hunt.
Although the crowd could not see the hunting process, it was not difficult for them to guess that the person who would come out first this time would definitely be their third Prince.
After all, the third prince had been good at riding and shooting since he was young. He was almost omnipotent in this aspect, and everyone had high expectations of him.
In the woods, Rong Jinghua’s gaze fell on a wolf cub. He immediately raised his longbow and shot an arrow, about to penetrate one of the wolf cub’s legs.
After the wolf cub’s leg was injured, it immediately wailed in pain and fell to the ground, its throat constantly squeezing out waves of miserable howls.
Rong Jinghua was overjoyed when he saw this. He quickly got off the horse and wanted to catch the little Wolf alive.
However, just as Rong Jinghua got off his horse, a sharp sleeve arrow suddenly shot through the air and pierced through the wolf cub’s heart.
The wolf cub raised its head and wailed in pain. Then, it fell heavily to the ground and stopped breathing.
Rong Jinghua immediately stopped in his tracks and turned around to look behind her.
The third prince, Rong Lie, was sitting on his horse, holding a bow and arrow. He laughed arrogantly. “Your Highness, I’m really sorry. It’s all my fault for shooting askew and accidentally killing Your Highness’ wolf cub. However, you can only blame this beast for not knowing what’s good for it and insisting on drilling into my arrow. If this isn’t seeking death, what else can it be?” After Peng Zhou heard this, he chided the third prince with a cold face, “Your
Highness, you’ve gone too far!”
Everyone here knew that the third prince had been able to pierce through the forest with a hundred steps when he was ten years old. He had never failed before, so how could he ‘accidentally’ kill this wolf cub?
Unless he did it on purpose to suppress the crown prince.
However, no one present dared to speak. They all lowered their heads obediently, afraid that they would be targeted by the third Prince,
After all, everyone knew that the third prince was the most outstanding one among all the princes. Compared to Rong Jinghua, who was the crown prince, everyone felt that the third pince had a higher chance of winning the throne.
Rong Lie saw that Peng Zhou was being rude and immediately scanned him with bloodthirsty eyes. “Your Highness the Crown Prince, your subordinates really don’t know the rules. No matter how kind Your Highness is, you shouldn’t neglect the discipline of your subordinates. Otherwise, these servants will climb over their Masters’ heads. What will happen?
Even though Rong Jinghua was being criticized like that, he did not show any signs of unhappiness on his face. He just smiled casually and said, “Third Brother is right. Some servants are indeed too indulgent and should be properly taught. As an apology to Third Brother, I’ll give this wolf cub’s body to you.”
“Then I will have to thank the Crown Prince.” Rong Lie’s attitude was still as arrogant as ever. After saying this, he pulled the reins in his hand and rode forward proudly.
Rong Lie immediately took Rong Jinghua’s position as the leader. Even so, Rong Jinghua was not angry. He did not seem to notice that Rong Lie had offended him and followed behind Rong Lie willingly and obediently..
