At this moment, Chu Yuefu approached Yu Yunxi again. He said seriously, “Sister Yunxi, although there aren’t many horses left to choose from, you don’t have to force yourself. I still have horses available.”

“There’s no need to trouble the Crown Prince. I think this horse is quite good,” Yu Yunxi said as she stroked the horse’s head.

The horse seemed to be able to understand Yu Yunxi’s words, and it rubbed itself against Yu Yunxi’s hand.

Yu Yunxi smiled, satisfied. She said, “I want this horse.

At the same time, the people in the surroundings lowered their voices as they began to speculate about Yu Yunxi’s intentions.

“Does the Eldest Princess really not understand horses, or is she doing this on purpose?”

“Even a normal person would be able to tell that the horse is weak. However, she still chose it…”

“The Crown Prince was willing to help her, and she should’ve just accepted his horse. Unexpectedly, she blindly chose her pride and insisted on sticking with that horse. If something happens later, she’ll become a laughingstock.”

“I think she’s doing this on purpose. The Emperor wants her to hunt, and I think she’s afraid that something will happen. However, there’s no way for her to refuse. That’s why she deliberately chose that horse. Think about it. When the time comes, if the horse runs out of energy, she can easily withdraw from the hunt.”

“Indeed, you have a point.”

Yu Yunxi:

Those people were unaware that Yu Yunxi, who had excellent hearing, could clearly hear them.

Yu Yunxi’s eyes shone with ridicule. She did not expect that the officials of Xichu were so gossipy.

On the other side, when Chu Zai saw that Yu Yunxi insisted on choosing the weak horse, he was extremely satisfied.

‘This idiot is really seeking death…’

Chu Zai quickly ordered, “Pass down my orders. The autumn hunt officially begins now.”

Based on how anxious Chu Zai was, it was clear that he did not want to give Yu Yunxi a chance to withdraw from the hunt.

Now that Chu Zai had spoken, many people began to rush into the forest.

There was a bigger worry in Feng Yili’s heart. Not everyone in Xichu’s imperial family had the ability to communicate with animals. If they discovered her ability, they would not be able to tolerate her existence even more. Up until now, he had yet to find out who had sent those assassins from Xichu. If the culprit was Chu Zai, it would make things easier since Chu Zai was a known enemy. It would be troublesome if the enemy was hidden in the dark. Finally, Feng Yili said in a deep voice, “All of you stay here and stand guard.”

After saying that, Feng Yili leaped onto his horse and made his way into the forest.

Participants were not allowed to bring their subordinates with them during the autumn hunt. This was the rule.

Feng Yili took a different path from Yu Yunxi, and when Chu Zai saw this, he sighed in relief. Without the former interfering, it would be easier for him to deal with Yu Yunxi.

Chu Zai looked at the guards behind him meaningfully, and they quickly left.

With this, the dangerous game finally began.

Yu Yunxi was wandering the forest in boredom when someone called out urgently from behind.

“Eldest Princess!”

Yu Yunxi turned around and saw Qu Yu.

Qu Yu said anxiously, “Eldest Princess, you shouldn’t have participated in the autumn hunt. The Emperor will definitely make a move against you. The Emperor Emeritus is not present today, and there’s no one with you. It’s extremely dangerous for you.”

Qu Yu was smart, after all. She could naturally guess the Emperor’s intentions.

Yu Yunxi smiled when she how worried Qu Yu was. She said patiently, “Qu Yu, thank you for your concern. However, since the Emperor has spoken, do you think I have a chance to refuse?”

Qu Yu frowned. She knew that Yu Yunxi was right. She thought about it for a moment before she said resolutely, “Very well. Eldest Princess, from now on, stay by my side. I’ll protect you.”

“Alright, let’s go together,” Yu Yunxi said, sighing in relief. She did not want to force herself anymore. After all, the forest was really fraught with danger.

Qu Yu pulled on the reins of the horse and said solemnly, “Eldest Princess, go in front of me. My horse is a little rash. I’m afraid you won’t be able to catch up if it runs ahead.’

Qu Yu was worried that Yu Yunxi’s weak horse would not be able to catch up once her horse started running.

Yu Yunxi raised an eyebrow and asked meaningfully, “Are you sure you want me to go first?”

“I’m sure.”

“Alright.’

Yu Yunxi nodded and lightly patted the horse’s backside.

With that, the horse, who looked listless just a moment ago, suddenly raised its head and rushed out. Its speed was so fast that even Qu Yu could not see it clearly..
