Shen Yi Di Nu, Divine Doctor: Daughter of The First Wife

Deception After Deception

The eunuch’s shrill voice caused everyone present to feel shocked by what they had heard.

What was this? Let go 28? Was this not a hunt? When had it become a rescue effort?

But there was someone that said: “Indeed, only His Highness the Seventh Prince could do something like this!”

This feeling very quickly received sympathetic responses, thus everyone looked at Xuan Tian Hua a bit more. Slowly, they began to feel that this sort of thing happening with Xuan Tian Hua could not be any more normal. Thus they all began to to say kind words, “Your Highness is a benevolent person! I admire it! Admire it!”

Xuan Tian Hua, however, only smiled and did not respond to this. When the voices stopped, he finally took a couple steps back and said to the Emperor: “Father Emperor, son has never hunted a small animal and will not compete with my elder brothers.”

The fourth prince, Xuan Tian Yi, glanced at him with a bitter expression and said: “If it wasn’t for old seventh messing around, I could have gotten a couple more.”

The Emperor snorted, “You were already first, so what are you still thinking about?” After speaking, he very unhappily received the jade ruyi that the Empress had prepared then handed it to Zhang Yuan: “This is the reward for the winner of today’s hunt. Go ahead and give it to him!”

Although the Emperor would allow the fourth prince out from time to time, starting from the Mid-Autumn Festival’s banquet, he still felt a thorn in his heart from when Xuan Tian Yi and Xuan Tian Ye had attacking the palace, thus his attitude was not too good. The ruyi symbolizing victory was also given unwillingly.

But Xuan Tian Yi did not think much of it, as he acted as if he did not see the Emperor’s cold silence. After receiving the ruyi, he solemnly kneeled and kowtowed to give thanks. He then stood up and headed toward the group of young misses.

His movements caused everyone to feel puzzled; however, Xuan Tian Ge tugged on Feng Yu Heng’s sleeve and said: “Quickly look, look, he’s definitely looking for Xiang Rong.”

Feng Yu Heng was naturally able to see through his intentions. The direction in which Xuan Tian Yi headed happened to be where Xiang Rong was seated. Very quickly, the two were standing face to face. Xuan Tian Yi lifted the ruyi and said: “Master Xiang Rong, take it. It was already agreed that if I won, the award would be given to you as a gift to thank master.”

These words caused the redness in Xiang Rong’s face to extend to her neck. For a moment, she did not know what she should do, as she angrily and awkwardly rolled her eyes at Xuan Tian Yi. She even gritted her teeth and quietly said: “Are you crazy? Who told you pick this time to give it to me? Could you not secretly give to me later?”

Yet Xuan Tian Yi did not mind the small details and immediately said in a loud voice: “Hah! You are my embroidery master. Why must I make a choice between giving it now or later? When obtaining it, it naturally needs to be given. Quickly take it. Something given by Father Emperor is very good.” While speaking, he carefully looked at the piece of jade and added: “It’s a good piece of jade. You’ve really won big this time, quickly take it.”

Xiang Rong was so angry that she really wanted to give him a kick, but in the end, she managed to hold back. Grabbing the ruyi, she quietly said: “Quickly, go and get lost.”

“Getting lost, going to get lost.” Xuan Tian Yi was in a good mood and happily walked back to the group of princes without explaining to anyone. Indeed, these actions could not be any more normal when he did them.
