It's unbelievable that Mother's food is unappetizing to him!
Hmph!
Scumbag father!
Mother is so beautiful, and so many people like her, yet scumbag father dislikes her!
Hmph!
Scumbag father is too narcissistic!
He'll organize a marriage by combat for Mother later, so scumbag father can see how many people want to marry Mother and become his dad!
Yun Xiaojing was practically fuming!
If it weren't for his brother, he would have wanted to go out and organize a marriage by combat for Mother right now!
...
The General's Residence.
A gilded invitation was swiftly delivered to the General's Residence.
The person delivering the invitation specifically instructed that it must be handed over to Yun Shu.
At that moment, Yun Shu was having breakfast.
Upon seeing the letter delivered by the servant,
She was slightly surprised.
Yi Zixing?
Who is that?
Yun Shu raised an eyebrow.
In the original owner's memories, she couldn't find anyone named Yi Zixing. The name was vague.
Someone so unfamiliar actually invited her to a hunt?
The invitation stated that many people were invited.
This hunt had prizes.
The rewards were generous.
In fact, the original owner had participated in such an event years ago.
However, each time she participated, the original owner was treated as a source of amusement.
But the original owner was too kind and easily deceived. She said she didn't want to go, but under the persuasion of others, she eventually went. The outcome was predictable; without exception, she was mocked and ridiculed.
Five years ago in the capital, it was as if the capital lost its joy without the original owner.
Originally, she wasn't interested in hunting or anything like that.
But now...
Since an invitation had been sent and she was warmly invited, there was no reason to refuse.
Yun Shu's red lips curved upwards, her eyes full of smiles.
Jing Heng glanced at the invitation. "They likely have ill intentions. I will accompany my mistress."
Yun Shu saw Jing Heng's eagerness to seek revenge and smiled. "Don't be nervous, I can go by myself."
If Jing Heng were to go, it would likely lead to fatalities.
Having just returned to the capital not long ago, it was more interesting to take things slowly.
"You stay and find Yun Xiaojing. If you find him, tell him I'm angry!" Yun Shu's thoughts turned to that brat Yun Xiaojing again.
Jing Heng felt a headache coming on. "Yes."
He had never seen such a troublesome child!
Yun Xiaojing was definitely the first!
...
At the same time, many people in the capital received invitations from Yi Zixing.
Furthermore, it was revealed that Yun Shu would also attend this hunt.
After five years, many people wanted to see how Yun Shu, who used to be so scared of horses that she cried during hunts, would behave now that she was no longer foolish. Would she still be so afraid of horses?
Some sneered, "She caused so much embarrassment during previous hunts, and she still dares to agree to go hunting this time. Miss Yun Er's courage is truly remarkable."
"Indeed! Her courage is not ordinary!"
"Then let's eagerly await and see if she will make a fool of herself today!"
"In the past few years, she has learned to play the zither skillfully while outside, even surpassing Miss Geng Er. It's truly exceptional. However, whether her hunting skills can impress people remains to be seen."
After some discussion, they all prayed inwardly.
They hoped that Yun Shu at the hunting grounds would be the sole target of ridicule!
News of Yun Shu agreeing to attend the hunt reached Yun Changfeng.
Yun Changfeng was somewhat worried. "If Shu'er enjoys hunting, I'll take you in a couple of days. Moreover, the imperial palace holds a hunt every year. At that time, I can take you along, which is much better than you going alone tomorrow."
Yun Shu understood immediately that he was worried about her.
He was afraid she would be bullied at the hunting grounds.
She smiled. "Father, don't worry. Since I agreed, it means I won't be bullied."
"You! Sigh! Alright, come. We're only hunting tomorrow, so I'll take you to ride a horse now and teach you what true hunting is." Yun Changfeng put down his work and said to Yun Shu.
Yun Shu felt a bit embarrassed to refuse, but for the moment, she couldn't explain that she was actually somewhat familiar with these things.
Since Yun Changfeng was in the mood, she might as well go and see.
After all, he was the Great General, renowned throughout the land, and incredibly capable.
Yun Changfeng, with his paternal desire to protect his daughter from being bullied,
Arrived at the horse farm.
He was eager to impart everything he knew to Yun Shu.
Starting from how to choose a horse,
To how to mount and dismount.
After he demonstrated once and Yun Shu followed suit, he was astonished!
"As expected of my daughter!"
She was so much like him!
No, she far surpassed him.
When he first mounted a horse, he was nowhere near as agile and relaxed as Shu'er.
Even many things, he only needed to explain once, and Shu'er understood!
She was incredibly intelligent!
Yun Changfeng was immensely proud.
Next, he taught her how to shoot arrows.
Yun Shu learned very diligently.
Yun Changfeng taught with a sense of accomplishment.
Jing Heng, who saw this scene from not far away, secretly twitched his mouth fiercely.
His mistress was truly adept at pretending to be incompetent.
Those who wanted to see their mistress make a fool of herself tomorrow would likely be disappointed!
Two hours later.
The father and daughter finally remembered that they hadn't had lunch.
Yun Changfeng was extremely happy today.
He ordered the kitchen to prepare a more abundant lunch.
"I never thought Shu'er would be so intelligent! I've neglected Shu'er all these years," Yun Changfeng said, filled with self-reproach.
If he hadn't been on the battlefield every day and left her in the care of her unkind grandmother, how could she have been poisoned?
How could she have become foolish all these years, bullied by everyone in the capital?
His daughter, Yun Changfeng's daughter, was meant to be cherished, not to be bullied!
Yun Shu replied humbly, "It's alright, it's alright. I'm not as amazing as Father praises me."
"My child is too modest!" Yun Changfeng laughed heartily.
He couldn't find anyone in the army with such a quick understanding as Shu'er!
She learned it almost as soon as he said it!
He could be completely at ease about tomorrow's hunt!
...
Regarding tomorrow's hunt, a scout suddenly delivered the news to the Prince of Night's mansion.
Qiu Lu knew very well how much the Prince detested Miss Yun Er.
However, this matter was somewhat unusual.
If it were a simple hunt, it would be inconsequential.
But there was a conspiracy involved!
A conspiracy targeted at Miss Yun Er.
After much deliberation, since the Prince had ordered an investigation into Miss Yun Er, this information should be reported to the Prince.
He went to the study.
Zhan Tianye raised his gaze.
"Your Highness, your subordinate has something to report."
"Speak."
"A few days ago, Your Highness ordered me to investigate Miss Yun Er's affairs over the past few years. Just now, a scout received a piece of news. However, it's not about those past years, but about Miss Yun Er being invited by the Heir of Zhongyong Marquis to hunt tomorrow," Qiu Lu said.
When Zhan Tianye heard the words "Miss Yun Er," his eyes turned cold. "Hunt?"
"Yes. The scout reported that someone intends to use this hunt as an opportunity to collude and ruin Miss Yun Er's reputation in the mountains, making it impossible for her to establish herself in the capital in the future."
