C128

When the guard arrived with the target, he saw that it was indeed the red star.

There was another round of applause.

Jiang Zimu raised the bow in his hand and shouted, "Qiu Shou will officially begin!"

Then, the entire stage erupted with noise and excitement, following that, Mu Zhihuan saw someone walking in with a horse.

One could only see that each of the horses had very strong and robust fur.

Before Mu Zhihuan could react, many of the people present all stood up and went to their horses.

Amongst this group of people, not only did Mu Zhihuan see Jiang Zisu, she also saw Gu Mingxuan.

She cast her gaze at Gu Mingxuan, with his physique, he actually still wants to go hunting, isn't that courting death?

But who knew that Gu Mingxuan would just give her a reassured look, and then jump onto the horse.

Jiang Zisu saw Mu Zhihuan's worried expression from afar. He urged his horse forward and arrived in front of Gu Mingxuan.

Gu Mingxuan only gave him a bland glance: "What is the Duke doing?"

Jiang Zisu's eyes were crazed with anger: "How about I win against you in this competition and you leave Mu Zhihuan for me?"

"I think Your Highness has misunderstood something? Zhihuan chose me herself. Even if I leave, did you get her heart? "

Gu Mingxuan's eyes were cold, filled with a frightful frost.

"Then you don't dare?" Jiang Zisu scoffed, showing extreme disdain.

Glancing at the worried Mu Zhihuan in the distance, Gu Mingxuan curled his lips: "Why wouldn't I dare to? So what if I bet with you? So what if you lose?

Jiang Zisu's face sunk. "It's decided then."

Just as he finished speaking, the soldier with the banner put down the flag and shouted, "Run!"

Jiang Zisu whipped his horse, and in the next moment, he disappeared from everyone's sight.

Seeing how vigorous he was, everyone present couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.

Only Mu Zhihuan's face was filled with worry, she had seen the scene where Jiang Zisu went to get Gu Mingxuan, and did not know what this Jiang Zisu wanted to do.

"Mother …" Is Uncle Gu going hunting? "

Tuanzi opened his round eyes wide and looked at Mu Zhihuan curiously.

Mu Zhihuan wiped the corner of his mouth with a handkerchief and said, "That's right, when they return from the hunt, we will be able to eat barbecue."

Tuanzi's eyes lit up when he heard about food, "Yeah yeah! Ran'er likes to eat barbecue! "

As the two of them were chatting, Zhennan walked over from an unknown place. "Royal Concubine, who do you think will be the champion today?"

As Mu Zhihuan was talking with the Tuanzi, she was startled by the sudden voice. She slowed down for a bit and said: "How would I know? There are so many civil and military officials, I am just a woman, how can I have the qualification to judge these. "

Zhennan laughed, "I guess it's either Gu Mingxuan or Jiang Zisu."

Mu Zhihuan looked at him: "Why do you say that?"

Zhennan shrugged his shoulders, "Because the crown prince needed to prepare, he did not participate in this hunt. Furthermore, the generals with the highest skills did not return, so Jiang Zisu is the only one left."

"Although the Crown Prince of Great Yan, Gu Mingxuan, looks sickly, but looking at his movements when he is mounted, he is definitely much stronger than those civil servants who can't even ride steadily."

Mu Zhihuan looked at Zhennan in shock: "I didn't expect that not only are your poems and songs written so well, your observation skills aren't weak either."

"Thank you, wangfei, for your praise." Zhennan was not modest.

Seeing his calm appearance, Mu Zhihuan was confused: "Logically speaking, you and I should not be considered to be very close, why do you keep talking to me about it?"

If her words were spoken by anyone else, they would have turned hostile, but Zhennan acted as if nothing had happened, with a face full of indifference:

"I really admire Princess Hua-Shi's talent in poetry. There is also one other thing that makes you feel uncomfortable: she doesn't have such a strong fire and smoke aura around her. Look at all of these people flattering her."

So that was how it was, if this person had any other reasons, Mu Zhihuan might not believe him.

If he said that he could not bear to see these people flattering him, then Mu Zhihuan could accept it.

Who told this person to get involved in this mess and not like the government at all? He still remembered that the Crown Prince had used him to win him over.

Mu Zhihuan raised her eyebrows and laughed: "You are quite a straightforward person. Alright, I'll be making you a friend then."

"That's because wangfei is also very honest. There's still that line of words, if it were any other official, he definitely wouldn't have been able to ask."

Mu Zhihuan chuckled: "That's why we're friends. It's because we're very similar in personality, right?"

Just as the two of them were happily chatting, a cry of surprise sounded out from the crowd. When the two of them clearly saw the situation, they couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air.

Amidst the crowd, a green-robed official suddenly fell to the ground, spasming and frothing at the mouth.

Mu Zhihuan hugged the Tuanzi tightly and stared fixedly at the official.

There were still others who wanted to save the official, but before he could do anything, the official suddenly spasmed crazily and fell limply to the ground.

An officer with more guts extended his trembling hand and checked his breath. After that, his face instantly turned livid. "Die …" "Dead …"

Jiang Zimu who was on the stage suddenly stood up and snatched away the dessert bowl that had just been left undrunk by the Emperor. "Doctor Xuan, come here."

Not long later, an old man hurried over with a medicine box in his hand. He took out a silver needle from the medicine box and placed it inside the bowl, stirring it a few times.

Then, in front of everyone's eyes, the silver slowly turned black. In an instant, everyone turned pale with fright.

Jiang Zimu was the first to react: "Protect them!"

The group of Steel Cavalry quickly surrounded the emperor, surrounding him so that not even a drop of water could trickle through.

"Imperial Physician, I'll have to trouble you to take another look at that official."

The old imperial physician nodded and wiped the sweat from his forehead. He used silver needles to prick the dead official's body, and only after a long time did he raise his head.

"Reporting to Crown Prince, this person's poison has yet to reach his throat and only reached a little bit under his mouth. It seems that the poison in the dish is indeed not bad."

Ah!

Upon hearing that it was the poison in the dish, the group of people immediately began to panic.

A rather fat official was the first to shout out, "This … I just took a sip of the soup... This... Imperial Physician Gu, quick, come over and take my pulse. "

As soon as his shout fell, the other officials also began to shout anxiously. The entire hunting grounds instantly became anxious.

Hearing them say that, Mu Zhihuan suddenly realised that Tuanzi had also eaten quite a lot just now.
