Chapter 212 Murong Huan is looking for trouble
From Shengjing to Shanglinyuan, the carriage slowly dragged a group of nobles who were participating in the hunting. It was three days later when they arrived at their destination.
During these three days, Zhong Ning stayed in the carriage and slept all day long.
Fortunately, this carriage has good shockproof properties, otherwise I wouldn’t even be able to sleep.
Countless people who wanted to visit and pay their respects during the period of parking were all sent away by Su Xin on the grounds that His Highness was resting.
When they finally arrived at the destination, Zhong Ning just got off the car and was greeted by the young ladies who were looking at her eagerly.
"I've looked for you several times, but you're nowhere to be found..." Zhang Wanting took the lead and muttered with a pout.
Zhong Ning rubbed her little head with his backhand, "It's too boring to be in the carriage, so we might as well use all the time to rest. This way we can have enough energy to hunt in front of the emperor."
"Have you learned to ride a horse?" Zhang Wanting asked secretly. Zhong Ning nodded. She had learned it briefly, but most of the time she relied on communicating with her little white dragon.
Now in the hunting ground, Zhong Ning rarely remembered that he had a skill, which seemed to be called the Voice of Beasts.
But she turned off this skill after using it twice, for no other reason than that it was too noisy.
She is a person who needs quietness to sleep. If she keeps this skill on, she will be able to hear the sounds of various small things at night.
Cockroaches, bugs, and even the little ants hiding under the wall outside the window... She was almost driven to collapse by the endless discussions.
But now, even when they arrived at the hunting ground, Zhong Ning didn't dare to open the skill card easily. After all, everyone came here to hunt, and she was also afraid that if she turned on the voice of the beasts, she would hear all kinds of cries for help in her ears.
If the sound was too tragic, she wouldn't be able to bear it.
Princess Zhaoyang Murong Xin also got off the carriage and walked over:
"Sister Ning, this is your first time participating in the Autumn Hunt, so you're probably not familiar with many of the rules. Our tents have already been set up. Let's go and rest first. I'll explain the ins and outs of the Autumn Hunt to you."
"You...you are not..." Zhang Wanting's eyes suddenly widened. This person looked similar to Princess Anle. If there was any difference, was it just the makeup?
As a second-generation rich man in later generations, she is well versed in various makeup styles and naturally knows how to distinguish bone structure. Although Murong Ning changed her makeup and looked bright and elegant, she could be sure that this was the previous Princess Anle.
Murong Xin didn't expect that so many people didn't notice it, but Zhang Wanting saw it, and couldn't help but explain:
"I am Princess Zhaoyang! The one Miss Zhang saw before must be Princess Anle. She and I are 60% similar, so it's no wonder you made a mistake."
Ha ha!
Zhang Wanting closed her mouth silently.
During this time, she had already understood a truth: for some things, it is better to see through them but not speak them out, which is the way to protect oneself.
"Murong Ning!"
The three were about to head towards the camp when they saw a girl wearing a Xiangfei-colored silk shirt with a Ruyi cloud pattern walking towards them with an angry face.
It was Murong Huan, the eldest daughter of Prince An!
"Murong Ning, where did you take my brother Lu?" Murong Huan didn't care about the strange looks others gave her, and just asked Zhong Ning loudly.
"How dare you!" Zhong Ning shouted softly, her face sullen. "You are a princess of the royal palace after all. How dare you openly look for a man in public?"
"How could I be any worse than you?" Murong Huan pointed at himself in disbelief. "How could I be any worse than you? Brother Lu is mine, yet you hid him. Murong Ning, how could you treat me like this?"
"What nonsense! He's a living person. Who could hide him? Maybe he's tired of you being too insistent and wants to hide away to find some peace and quiet. That's understandable. If you can't find anyone, why are you asking me?"
"It must be you! If it wasn't you, why would you..." Zhong Ning looked over coldly, and Murong Huan suddenly shut up.
Although she has a reckless personality, she also knows that there are some things that cannot be said.
She pursed her lips and looked at Zhong Ning with tearful eyes. Zhong Ning softened his heart and pulled her aside, whispering to her in a soothing voice, "Okay, I admit, he is indeed in my hands, but he is willing."
Murong Huan glared at him directly. She knew that the only person who could send someone to take Brother Lu away was Murong Ning.
"The Spring Examination is coming soon, and he asked me if there was a quiet place for him to review his lessons for the exam."
"It's because you've been so persistent that he's been annoyed and can't even review properly, so he's come to me for help."
Zhong Ningyi was talking nonsense, then he looked at Murong Huan and said sternly:
"Look at you, you're a girl after all, but you're openly pestering a man like this, talking about Brother Lu all the time, like you're completely in love. Do you have any shame?"
"It would be fine if they were both in love, but it's just that the flower has feelings but the water is not. You've been well-educated and sensible since you were little, but you're so obsessed with a man. You're really bringing shame to the princess of the palace."
Murong Huan's tears immediately fell, and she looked at Zhong Ning's eyes with extreme grievance.
What's wrong with her just liking Brother Lu?
Why does everyone come to blame her?
"Hello, hello, why are you trying to snatch Brother Lu from me? I knew him first..." Murong Huan accused in a crying voice.
"I've just made it clear that it was Lu Xingzhou who came to me on his own, asking for a quiet place to stay. Now that the Spring Examination is approaching, do you really have to disturb him at this time?"
"You know how important the Spring Examination is to a scholar. Are you going to ruin someone's future just for your own selfish reasons?"
Zhong Ning's voice was cold and his words were merciless. "Even if you are of noble status, you can't force someone who doesn't like you to do this."
"Yes, he doesn't like me, but does he like you? I tell you, Murong Ning, Brother Lu is mine, and no one can take him away from me." Murong Huan cried, and after thinking for a while, she added another bargaining chip, "I will go and ask Uncle Huang to grant me a marriage with Lu Xingzhou."
After saying that, she headed towards the largest tent in the center of Shanglin Garden.
Zhong Ning grabbed her and slapped her in the face, "Are you awake?"
Murong Huan covered his face, his eyes full of disbelief, "You dare to hit me?"
"I'm going to hit you, why would I choose a day?" Zhong Ning's eyes were grim, and his voice was icy cold. "I'm telling you, Lu Xingzhou is under my protection. Do you dare to force him?"
She took two steps towards Murong Huan, forcing him to retreat. Murong Huan covered his face and looked at Zhong Ning in horror.
After Zhong Ning approached, he leaned slightly to her ear and whispered a threat: "If you dare, I will personally cripple you..."
