    Chapter 93

    The third day of September.

    It was a windless day and the air was crisp and clear. It was the best time of the year in autumn.

    The emperor summoned his favorite ministers, children of aristocratic families, princes and princesses to the Shanglin Garden for the annual hunt.

    The tradition of royal hunting has existed since ancient times.

    The Book of Songs says:

    On the auspicious day of Gengwu, I sent my horse.The animals are the same as the deer and the deer.Qi Ju’s followers are the place of the emperor.

    Looking at the Central Plains, there is Qikong.When you are together, you are a group or a friend.Xi led the left and right, with the emperor Yan.

    From this we can get a glimpse of the royal family’s emphasis on hunting and the grand occasion of the emperor’s hunting.

    The Yunmeng royal family has long had a tradition that hunting is inevitable every autumn. The emperor and his ministers gather in Shanglin Garden to compete in the mountains. Firstly, they can consolidate the relationship between the emperor and his ministers. Secondly, they can experience the younger members of the royal family. Thirdly, they can also test the imperial guards, killing three eagles with one stone.

    In Shanglin Garden, the water of the Eight Rivers meanders majestically, the mountains are majestic, and the palaces are all over the valley. There are many halls and pavilions built on them, one after another.

    The emperor stood on the stage, wearing a bright yellow armor. Under his crotch was the sweat-blooded horse that Dawan Kingdom had just presented this year. His eyes passed over the outstanding young man in front of him one by one.

    All of them are graceful and natural, with a high-spirited look between their brows and eyes. They are bound to show off their talents on the hunting grounds this year.

    The majestic Shanglin Garden became even more dazzling because of the gathering of these young men.

    Those who can participate in the royal hunt are naturally the only children from aristocratic families. After all, they have to compete with the princes and emperors for prey. If they are not good at riding, they will not only lose their own face, but also lose the face of their family.

    Moreover, Yunmeng has a tradition that at the end of every hunting event, the emperor will be the chief judge and select the best hunter. Such recognition from the emperor and the honor bestowed by the emperor make this title not only pursued by the nobles, but also by all the princes.

    When Rong Chen and the princes arrived at the scene, they caught a glimpse of the young master in white sitting on a snow-white horse in the distance.

    Who is next to him?

    The third prince, and a third prince with his legs and feet intact and currently riding a horse.

    Sensing that the third prince’s eyes were looking over with hidden resentment, Rong Chen also looked over, their eyes met, and with a slight smile, he turned his gaze to the person beside him.

    It seems that for him, whether the third prince is paralyzed or whether he recovers is not worthy of too much attention.

    Rong Jue took the look from he and smiled coldly, looking back at him.

    One is born with dignity and indifference, and the other is as gentle as jade like no other in the world.

    They were two people with completely different temperaments, but their eyes were the same cold and unruffled.

    The lively and noisy atmosphere of the hunting ground well concealed the flash of swords between the two.

    The emperor did not notice the quarrel between their eyes. He was looking at the third prince’s legs in surprise.

    “Yuan Qing, the imperial doctors said that medicine and stone have no effect on your body. How did you recover? Do you have any inconvenience in your legs and feet now?”

    The third prince turned over and dismounted neatly, which shocked all the young people.

    You must know that the third prince has been paralyzed since he was a child. Why is it that he suddenly seems to be born again, walking like a normal person without any drag on his legs and feet?

    What was the magic elixir that cured he?

    While everyone was full of questions, the third prince saluted his father gracefully and said: “A few days ago, I accidentally got a magical medicine. I applied it to the numb areas between my legs every day. In the first few days, my legs started to feel. In less than half a month, I was able to walk upright. I never told my father about this happy news because I wanted to take advantage of my father’s hunting today to surprise my father. I can also use my bow and arrows to hunt for deer!”

    The emperor was a little moved after hearing this. He did owe something to his son. His biological mother died young and became disabled. Later, he neglected to discipline him. When he was given the title of prince, he was more willing to make amends than fatherly love.

    He took the blazing sun bow on one side and handed it to the third prince: “This is the bow left by the Supreme Emperor to my father. My father once used this bow to shoot an invading general from a neighboring country with one arrow, and retreated the enemy three thousand miles. From then on, he protected the southern part of Yunmeng for thirty years of peace. I will give it to you today.”

    The third prince was overjoyed. He knelt down on his knees, took the bow from the scorching sun, and thanked his father obediently. When he got on his horse, he glanced at Rong Chen on one side intentionally or unintentionally. He was a bit proud, a bit provocative, but unfortunately he did not receive the jealousy he expected. Rong Chen still had the favored face of God, and he smiled and said congratulations to him.

    As if punched on cotton, the third prince snorted and raised his head, thinking that he would have to use this bow to teach him a lesson later on the hunting ground.
