Chapter 59
Han Xi Tong's foot was only bitten by a water snake and nothing serious happened, it's just that everyone made a big fuss over nothing.
Xiao Yan was so nervous that he immediately took out a bottle of golden orchid ointment and applied it to her wound, which was just a small cut.
As for this Golden Orchid Ointment, the medicine is as its name suggests - just a tiny bit of it is worth a hundred taels of gold, extremely precious. Not to mention that it was made by the renowned eccentric doctor, Light-as-the-Wind, from the Tianxuan Empire.
At the mention of this strange doctor, it is as light as a feather, and it makes people both love and hate him. His identity is mysterious, his whereabouts are unpredictable, but his medical skills are unparalleled, surpassing even Hua Tuo.
However, the reason he's considered strange is that although his medical skills are unparalleled, he has a moody personality. If you want to see him for an illness, it all depends on whether he's in a good mood or not!
Moreover, everyone only knows that this strange doctor, Light as Wind, is a man, and his age, appearance, identity, and background are all a mystery.
So also because of these things he has increased a lot of mysterious color.
And this Golden Orchid Ointment was also made by him, and later it was still Xiang Xiao Ran who bought it back at a high price, as you can imagine how noble this Golden Orchid Ointment is.
However, Xing Xiao Ran actually used such precious Golden Orchid Ointment to wipe his small wound, which made Han Xi's eyes roll out with a sense of extravagance.
But Xue Xiao Ran persisted, his eagerness to bring the best things in the world to her was so strong that it moved Han Xi Tong to both be touched and helpless, and she could only let him have his way.
So, the snake wound on my foot subsided immediately after applying Jinlan ointment for less than an hour, and it didn't hurt anymore. There was a slight itching sensation, which should be the wound recovering.
Han Xi's eyes widened in surprise, for this Golden Orchid Ointment was too amazing!
It also made her curious about this strange doctor. However, the previous owner of this body seemed to have never met that strange doctor either, let alone her.
It was indeed so, and Han Xi Tong didn't think much about it either, applied the medicine and went to sleep early.
The next day.
When the first ray of sunlight in the morning poured onto the earth, the campsite that had been quiet for a whole night gradually became lively.
After all, this is an annual autumn hunting competition. Many princes and princesses have been spoiled in the palace and are quite looking forward to this autumn hunt, treating it with a playful attitude, blowing their whistles early in the morning, waiting for what they want to hunt.
As for those ministers, young masters and nobles, this is the moment to show off in front of the emperor. Especially this time, there are also many noble ladies, princesses and the like present, if they perform well here, who knows, maybe they will capture the hearts of beautiful women too.
After all, beautiful women have always loved heroes since ancient times, haven't they!?
Early in the morning, Han Xi Tong also got up early to change clothes. Because of this autumn hunt, Xun Xiao Ran had long been tailored for her a riding suit at Jue Se Fang.
At this moment, Han Xi stood in front of a large copper mirror, looking at the girl in the mirror.
A white silk riding suit wrapped around her body, with exquisite handwork and top-grade silk, perfectly showcasing the girl's well-developed figure. The front was prominent, the back was curved, and the small waist could be grasped in one hand. On her feet were a pair of boots adorned with red gemstones. What was most striking were the clusters of delicate, vibrant red roses embroidered on the collar and sleeves.
It makes the originally elegant and refreshing girl add a few more touches of charming and unspoken beauty.
That head of hair like a waterfall was tied up high by Rong Er's skilled hands, and then fastened with a hairband inlaid with red diamonds. What was particularly striking was that on the surface of the red diamond hairband, those red diamonds were all intricately carved into small, delicate rose shapes, which complemented the red roses embroidered on her riding attire.
That small face without makeup, skin crystal clear and white, eyebrows curved, eyes like a pool of water, sparkling, lips as if painted with rouge, every gesture, has an unending elegant and refreshing charm!
For her own self wearing a riding outfit, Han Xi's eyes were extremely satisfied. Adding that her feet no longer hurt, when she saw herself in the mirror, her mind involuntarily surged with the image of her riding a tall and majestic horse, holding a long whip and galloping freely, which would definitely be very cool!
Just thinking about it, Han Xi's mouth couldn't help but curve up into a bright and satisfied smile, and the three souls and seven spirits of the onlooker were all hooked away. With hands clasped together and eyes shining like red hearts, he exclaimed in admiration from the side.
"The young master looks really good-looking, and wearing a riding outfit is even more impressive than a man, so dashing!"
Upon hearing You'er's words of admiration, Han Xi's smile deepened, her eyes curved even more, and the sparkle in them shone brighter. After all, who doesn't love to hear pleasant words? Moreover, she also knew that You'er wasn't wrong about anything he said.
Just now I caught a glimpse of myself in the mirror, and I was deeply enchanted by the delicate yet spirited girl in the mirror.
It seems that heaven has given this body a special treatment, and both red and black clothes bring out different flavors.
At this moment, looking at You'er's infatuated expression, Han Xi's heart moved slightly, and he immediately made a gesture of a spoiled young master teasing the little maid in his house. He stretched out his hand to gently lift up You'er's small chin, with a flirtatious smile on his face.
"Hehe... little beauty, let grandpa give you a kiss..."
Pfft!
Just as Han Xi Tong was teasing Liang Jia women with a dandy look, a burst of snickering suddenly came from behind.
Han Xi Tong couldn't help but turn her head in confusion, and when she saw the three handsome men standing behind her, she was immediately struck as if by lightning, and her whole body stiffened.
As she came to, her pretty face suddenly turned red, and her originally pale cheeks immediately flushed with two bright red spots, as if they had been painted with high-quality rouge.
And at this moment, Han Xi's eyes almost had a dying heart.
The three people standing behind her at this moment were none other than Xuan Xiao Ran, Xuan Tian Qi and Xuan Yang Lie!
She had just used the same trick from TV to tease a decent woman, and it was done so skillfully that she thought it was just funny at the time, but unexpectedly her coquettish appearance just now was seen by others.
Looking at Tian Qi and Xiao Ran's disbelieving expressions, Han Xi's eyes made her feel extremely embarrassed.
It was that scoundrel's Yang Lie, who, after a sneer, seemed to think Han Xi's eyes were not embarrassed enough, and continued to tease him on the side.
"Unexpectedly, you're not only good at fighting, but also have a knack for flirting with girls, impressive!"
"I'm flattered but I don't dare accept it, all I can say is we're even!"
Hearing Yang Lie's teasing, Han Xi couldn't help but retort with a sentence. Yang Lie's handsome face turned into a silly expression, and he involuntarily rubbed his nose while bitterly smiling on the side, looking like someone who knew better than to mess with a woman!
"Hehe, Fourth Brother, Tong'er is quite eloquent, you can't outtalk her!"
Xiao Ran, who was standing beside them, couldn't help but laugh and say something, and Tian Qi, who was also standing nearby, chimed in with a comment.
"It's rare to see our fourth brother being scolded!"
Tian Qi's words have a taste of hurting Yang Lie. Seeing Yang Lie gnashing his teeth and shaking his head with a look of pretending not to know, what deep brotherly love, can't even compare to the charm of a beauty!?!
At the sight of Yang Lie's helpless and embarrassed appearance, everyone burst into another fit of thunderous laughter.
However, while everyone was having fun, Han Xi suddenly seemed to have discovered something astonishing and involuntarily stopped laughing, blinked her bright and curious eyes, and then looked at the three outstanding men beside her.
"Huh? Why are there red roses embroidered on your clothes?"
Just now, I didn't notice, but now that I take a look, it's actually making Han Xi's eyes widen in surprise. She keeps circling around these three men, her beautiful watery eyes constantly sizing up the clothes on their bodies.
Because they were going hunting today, Xing Xiao Ran and the other two also put on a handsome riding suit.
Xiao Ran's riding gear on his body was naturally similar to the one he had on himself. I don't know if he was addicted to wearing couple outfits or not. So, of course, he wouldn't miss this moment, as if he couldn't wait to announce to everyone that they were a pair!
A high-end white silk riding suit of the same style, also inlaid with red diamond horse boots, sleeves and collar are embroidered with roses, exactly the same as Han Xi Tong's.
That same outfit, set off his jade-like complexion, making him look refreshing and neat, like the first sunlight shining on the earth in the morning, full of vitality.
He just stood beside Han Xi's eyes, and it was indeed a pair of golden boys and jade girls!
It's not surprising that Xiang Xuanran's clothes are similar to Han Hui's, but what's strange is that Xiang Tianqi and Xiang Yanglie's riding attire also have exquisite roses embroidered on them, although the fabric colors are all different. However, when they stand together like this, they are extremely eye-catching!
Only Tian Qi's body was wearing a high-quality ice silkworm-made snow-colored riding suit, with smooth silk and golden silver threads embroidered on the waistband, also intricately embroidered with a delicate red rose, that enchanting red, on the snow-colored riding suit stood out even more, yet when combined it didn't look strange at all.
It makes him, this elegant man, unexpectedly reveal a few more points of infinite charm!
Yang Lie was always wearing red except when he wasn't wearing clothes, and it's unknown why he had a special preference for the color red.
All that could be seen was a slightly tight-fitting large red riding suit on his body, deeply outlining his robust figure.
Yang Lie's height is the highest among all the people here, estimated to be around 1.9 meters tall, with a perfect body proportion, comparable to that of modern models.
A face with distinct facial features, a spirited and lively expression between the eyebrows, a pair of sentimental peach blossom eyes that reveal a hint of evil charm when they glance sideways, those thin lips often curve into a mischievous smile. Especially when he stares at people, it's even more enchanting, no woman can escape being enchanted by him to the point of losing their soul.
And on his sleeves, golden threads embroidered a few gold-colored roses, red with a hint of gold. If he stood under the sun, he would definitely be eye-catching, whether it was people or those charming and elegant horseback riders!
Just as Han Xi Tong was circling around these three men, Xuan Xiao Ran was fine, but on the other hand, Xuan Tian Qi and Xuan Yang Lie's faces showed a hint of shyness and embarrassment.
"Isn't that the same outfit you guys wore last time? I thought the red rose on it was particularly elegant, so I also had Absolute Color Studio make a set?"
Being stared at by Han Xi's beautiful eyes, which were like rippling water, Xiang Yang Lie, who usually had a thick skin, suddenly felt a bit embarrassed. On his ancient bronze-colored skin, a few suspicious red flushes appeared, making him look delicate and charming, yet not showy!
A man who looks like him is simply a - devil!
"Oh, really!?"
Seeing Xiang Yang's rare blush, Han Xi couldn't help but tease him a bit, after all, every time she saw him without teasing him a bit, her heart would feel itchy.
Well, can't help it, maybe I'm used to it. So, being used to something is sometimes quite scary!
"Uh, of course it is! What did you think it was?"
Being stared at by Han Xi's clear and piercing eyes, which seemed to see through people's hearts, made Yun Yanglie's entire body covered in goosebumps. His handsome face also turned a few shades redder.
Because of what he said earlier, he only told half the truth. He thought that last time Han Xi Tong and others wore clothes with embroidered red roses were very distinctive, but there was another reason why he had someone ask around and found out that Han Xi Tong actually loved roses very much.
Every day, whether it's in the bathroom or in her room, she would scatter fresh rose petals everywhere, filling the entire house with the fragrance of flowers.
Even at this moment, when she suddenly approached him, he could smell a faint scent of roses between his nostrils, so intoxicating...
Yang Lie's heart rippled, and a hint of infatuation flashed in his peach blossom eyes, but that emotion flashed by so quickly that it was impossible to grasp.
Han Xi Tong heard Yang Lie's words, just smiled and put her target on Xuan Tian Qi, looking at his handsome face, his back immediately straightened.
"Hehe, Tianqi, how about you? The rose on your waist is quite unique!"
"Hehe, what's with that? I'm just like fourth brother, right? It just looks good, doesn't mean anything."
But then, Xuan Tian Qi's bright red handsome face, with his phoenix eyes shining with guilt and embarrassment, looked just like a child who had been caught telling a lie. Han Xi couldn't help but burst out laughing at the sight. She thought that Xuan Tian Qi was adorable at this moment.
Just as I was about to tease them some more, who knew that from outside came the sound of a bugle, it was the assembly bugle.
Then, Han Xi and his friends stopped fooling around and hastily walked towards the outside.
Today the weather is fine, with no clouds in sight, and the sun shines brightly. The azure sky is like a smooth mirror, so blue it's beautiful!
That charming sunlight pours down straight, shining on the entire earth, making the earth full of infinite vitality, bright but not scorching!
The breeze that blows is also carrying a hint of autumn coolness, just like a gentle and soft-hearted girl, making people feel comfortable and refreshed!
Royal hunting grounds, the ground is surrounded by mountains, the mountain momentum is majestic, towering into the clouds, and there are ancient trees in the forest that have been standing for hundreds of years, with lush leaves, like a green screen, blocking the forest from being seen.
Every place shows its grandeur and majesty!
There are also yellow flags distributed around, which flutter in the wind and show off the royal style everywhere!
This time, there were also thousands of people who came to participate in the autumn hunt. Except for those guards and palace servants, all the princes, princesses, sons of officials, and young masters wore riding clothes, and at first glance, they seemed full of vigor and vitality.
Today's Xuan Huang shed his dragon robe and wore a bright yellow helmet and armor, making him look even more robust and majestic.
Around his waist hung a golden token, a symbol of royalty, and from head to toe, he exuded an aura of majesty and authority that only those in power possessed!
He strode up onto the high platform with a fierce gaze and powerful steps, his majestic appearance exuding an aura of authority that commanded respect without him even needing to get angry!
As the emperor, at this moment, he would naturally say something inspiring and, in order for everyone to participate actively in the autumn hunt, Xuan Huang also made a big effort this time and offered very generous prizes.
Whoever captures a black bear will be rewarded with one thousand taels of gold and a tiger skin.
This tiger skin is beautiful in pattern, thick and soft, extremely precious. Moreover, it was the first time that Xiang Huang accompanied the former emperor on a hunt when he was only ten years old!
As for the tiger skin, compared to Han Xi's completely uninterested appearance, the eyes of other princes and young masters looking at the tiger skin were only a little short of shining with two green lights.
After all, this tiger skin is very meaningful, it was personally taken down by Xing Huan, the significance is different!
If one could win this tiger skin, they would definitely receive imperial attention, and immediately a wave of excitement was stirred up below.
Xuan Huang also looked relieved, with a pair of bright and piercing eyes scanning the entire scene, and a smile at the corner of his mouth.
Li Dezi immediately said the second prize, if you can hunt a tiger, you will be rewarded with 500 taels of gold and a sable coat from the Western Barbarians as a tribute!
Only then did the sable coat appear before everyone's eyes, and the surrounding air was immediately filled with gasps. However, most of them were just the girls' cries of surprise.
Because this sable coat is tailored to the woman's figure, the sable fur is snow-white all over, without any impurities, not only extremely soft, but also very warm.
Even in the snowy winter, wearing it is beautiful and elegant, warm and unparalleled, naturally becoming the heart of every young girl.
After all, this sable fur is not only beautiful, but also extremely precious and rare. Only the snowy mountains of Xiyue can hunt snow sables, and even the Tianxuan Imperial Palace has only three pieces like this.
One was given to the empress, one was given to Yu Fei, and this last one, I don't know who will get it when the flowers fall!
This time, Han Xi's eyes, which were originally dull and uninteresting, lit up when she saw the sable coat on display in front of everyone.
After all, everyone has a heart that loves beauty! She is just an ordinary woman of the world!
I love this beautiful sable coat so much! Especially when the sable coat emits a dazzling light under the sunlight, it's extremely beautiful! It makes people want to reach out and touch it!
Sighing in her heart, she couldn't help but say what was on her mind.
"How beautiful!"
"Darling, do you want it!?"
Upon hearing Han Xi Tong's words, the three men standing beside her turned their heads to look at her, seeing the joy on her face. Xing Xiao Ran was the first to speak up and ask.
"Hehe, of course I want to! Such a beautiful sable coat, I really want to go and touch it!"
Han Xi Tong said as she gazed at the sable coat, her beautiful eyes shining with joy never leaving it for a moment.
So, naturally, no one noticed that when they heard her words, the three men beside her all had a flash of determination in their eyes.
"Little one, as long as you want it, I'll definitely be able to get it for you!"
Xiao Ran said with a confident face, those beautiful Danfeng eyes were shining with a sense of necessity, under the sunlight, like scattered gold dust, shining brightly, how beautiful!
When Han Xi heard Xiang Xiao Ran's words, her gaze slowly moved from the sable coat on the stage to Xiang Xiao Ran's body.
Only a white-clad figure of Xing Xiao looked spirited and handsome, with an air of elegance and refinement, and a few more points of ease and neatness than usual.
But because I'm used to seeing Xiang Xiuran's frail and delicate appearance, it seems like she would be blown away by a strong gust of wind.
The deepest impression is his pitiful eyes, so now hearing Xing Xiao Ran say this, Han Xi's eyes suddenly widened in embarrassment and also somewhat disbelieving and suspicious.
She knew that educating children was about giving them confidence, even if they failed, and encouraging them constantly. So, Han Xi Tong also gave a confident smile to Xuan Xiao Ran and encouraged her.
"Great! Xiaoran you have to work hard, I will definitely support you!"
"Hehe..."
Hearing Han Xi Tong's encouragement, Xuan Xiao Ran immediately smiled with a "heh heh".
However, after seeing that guy's brilliant performance, he felt a bit uncomfortable in his heart.
Although he knew that Han Xi Tong was his seventh brother's woman, he couldn't help but want to attract her attention.
Now that he knew Han Xi Tong liked the sable coat, a pair of narrow and long peach blossom eyes flickered for a moment, then seemed to think of something, took a step forward, walked in front of Han Xi Tong and the others, raised an eyebrow, and said loudly.
"Just hunting like this seems a bit dull. Why don't we make a bet!"
"What's going on?!"
Upon hearing Yang Lie's words, Han Xi's eyes couldn't help but spark with interest. Curiously asking, what about Xuan Tian Qi? He also had a puzzled expression.
Xing Yang suddenly saw that everyone's eyes were on him, so he pretended to tilt his head and think for a moment. Then, as if he had thought of something, he snapped his fingers and laughed loudly.
"Why don't we do it this way, since you like that sable coat so much, the three of us brothers will have a contest to see who can hunt down a tiger first. If one of us wins and you want that sable coat, wouldn't it be fair to exchange something for it?"
"What? Something? What thing? I don't have money!"
When Han Xi heard Xing Yanglie say this, her beautiful eyes widened suddenly. Xing Xiao Ran, who was standing beside her, looked at her and immediately said.
"My eyes aren't afraid, I have money!"
"Heh heh, Xiao Ran is still the best!"
Han Xi Tong heard Xun Xiao Ran's words and immediately burst into a brilliant smile on her face.
That smile was as transparent as a pear blossom, stirring up a pool of spring water, so beautiful that it shook the hearts of the three men present.
Everyone's gaze swept over a hint of infatuation, however, Xing Xueran's infatuated love for Han Xi Tong was open and aboveboard.
However, the two men beside him were different.
Watching Xuan Xiao Ran's meticulous care for Han Xi Tong, he couldn't help but want to present all the precious things in time just to get a smile from his beloved.
In fact, they also want to be like this, so it's hard to bear watching them.
But he didn't know the bitterness in the hearts of the other two men, and after smiling at Jing Xiao Ran, when his gaze shifted to Jing Yang Lie, his small mouth flattened, saying with a hint of disdain.
"Opportunist!"
"Uh..."
When Han Xi Tong said this, Jing Yang Lie suddenly felt wronged and aggrieved.
"How did I get so powerful? I haven't even finished speaking yet! Who wants money now, I have plenty of it too! However, if I win and get that sable coat, if you want it, agree to one condition for me. After all, there's no such thing as a free lunch, right?"
"Uh, okay then, you go ahead and state your conditions, I'll listen."
Hearing Xiang Yang Lie's words, Han Xi Tong felt that it wasn't unreasonable either. After all, there was no such thing as a free lunch in this world. Moreover, hunting tigers was an extremely dangerous move. If one's martial arts skills weren't good enough, they wouldn't be able to hunt the tiger and would instead get hurt by it!
So as for what Yang Lie said, Han Xi Tong had no opinion, however...
"First of all, I won't do anything that involves murder, arson or forcing someone into prostitution!"
"Huh... what's wrong with your brain, woman? I'm the fourth prince of the Tianxuan dynasty, would I force you to do something that goes against heaven and reason?"
Jian Xiangyang's face was flushed with anger, but Han Xi actually knew that although he was a playboy, his character wasn't bad. He had just been teasing him earlier.
After all, it's quite refreshing to see him getting angry with himself while arguing with me!
Ugh, why does thinking about it more make me feel like I'm a bad guy?!
"Alright, I was just joking earlier, don't be angry, okay? First, tell me what conditions you want me to agree to?"
In response to Han Xi Tong's gentle and soothing tone, a few invisible black lines involuntarily slid down Jiong Yang Lie's forehead.
However, having achieved his goal, he didn't bother with the young woman and instead smiled, saying.
"As for the conditions, I haven't thought of them yet, wait till I think of it and I'll tell you! Don't worry, this thing is definitely within your capabilities! How about it, will you agree?"
"Uh, okay, fine, I agree."
Han Xi Tong thought for a moment after hearing, and finally the temptation of the sable coat was too great. Moreover, she also knew that even if Jing Yang Lie teased her in daily life, he wouldn't let her do anything excessive, so she immediately agreed.
"What does Big Brother mean?"
After seeing Han Xi nodding in agreement, Jing Yang Lie turned his head to look at Jing Tian Qi beside him and asked.
Only then did Jing Tianqi, who had never spoken before, smile with a warm and elegant face. His originally handsome and snowy skin now showed a hint of pink under the sunlight.
Those extremely slender and beautiful Danfeng eyes, at this moment, also showed a warm gem-like luster. Even though he was wearing a handsome riding suit at the moment, his eyebrows still revealed a hint of bookish elegance between them. The whole person looked noble and flawless, elegant as the wind.
"Hehe, such an interesting thing, I naturally agree!"
"Alright then, it's settled!"
Xuanyang Lie's one hammer decides the tone!
His face even drew a smile of excitement, as if this matter was a must-win for him, with an air of absolute confidence.
Tian Qi smiled faintly, but a hint of sharpness flashed at the bottom of her eyes...
After Dai Xuan finished saying everything, Qiu Lie immediately started under a horn.
All the young princes jumped onto their horses, carrying bows and arrows, rushing into the forest with excitement, claiming to hunt for big black bears.
Seeing the crowd riding their fine horses, Han Xi couldn't help but feel envious, and she pulled Xun Xiao Ran to the side of their horses.
Because all the horses here are tied together, Xuan Tianqi and several others naturally followed.
Xu Tianqi's horse was a rare thousand-mile horse. This thousand-mile horse had a pure white body, without any impurities, with a sturdy physique and strong limbs.
After Xuan Tian Qi finished, he first reached out to help the horse smooth its mane. The white horse immediately nuzzled his palm with its forehead, and it was clear that Xuan Tian Qi had a good relationship with the horse.
Han Xi Tong saw how spirited the white horse was and couldn't help but feel a liking for it.
Speaking of which, although she can also ride a horse, it's a BMW! As for the living horse, I had an impression that I could do it, but I've never actually practiced it.
But then he saw that Tianqi and Yanglie had already jumped onto their horses, looking so majestic and refreshing.
Tian Qi wore a black riding suit that almost blended with his pure white horse, forming a visually stunning combination.
Under Xiang Yang's fierce seat was a brown-haired Blood-Sweating Warhorse!
Only to see this blood-sweat-stained horse with a sturdy and compact body, beautiful appearance, well-developed muscles. After Xing Yang Lie jumped onto it, Han Xi suddenly thought of a classic phrase...
The object resembles its owner!
Is that what you meant?!
Unexpectedly, Xiangyang Lie was so unruly and unyielding, even the horse under his seat grew so robust and majestic, a pleasure to behold.
Then Han Xi Tong immediately turned her head to find her horse, she remembered that Xuan Xiao Ran had said that he had already helped her choose a good horse.
Thinking of this, Han Xi's eyes sparkled with excitement as she ran towards Xun Xiao Ran.
Not bad!
Xing Xian Ran is extremely fond of Han Xi Tong, and even the horses he chooses for Han Xi Tong are not inferior to those of Xing Tian Qi.
This is a thoroughbred white horse, just like Tianqi's, but its head is slightly smaller.
Its coat is shiny and beautiful, its appearance is even more handsome and elegant. What's particularly special is that on the forehead of this all-white horse, there is a small cluster of bright red color, which looks even more provocative.
Moreover, Han Xi Tong took one look and immediately fell in love with the horse. She was excitedly rubbing her hands, preparing to mount it according to her impression of riding a horse. Who knew that the horse, which originally looked gentle, suddenly lifted its hooves high up and let out a loud neigh, scaring Han Xi Tong so much that she stumbled backward several steps, almost falling to the ground. Fortunately, Xuan Xiao Ran saw this and immediately reached out to wrap his arms around Han Xi Tong's small waist, just in time to prevent her from having an intimate encounter with Mother Earth.
"Are you okay, Tong Er? Did you hurt anywhere?"
He tightly wrapped his arms around Han Xi's small waist, looking at her frightened and stunned expression, Xuan Xiao Ran was shocked, his eyebrows furrowed, and his eyes were filled with unconcealed worry.
Even Jing Tianqi and Jing Yanglie, who were riding horses and galloping around the periphery, saw from a distance what was happening here and were frightened, whipping up their long whips and urging their horses to rush towards Han Xuetang.
"Xīng Tóng, are you okay?!"
"Are you hurt anywhere? Do you need a doctor?"
Hearing Tian Qi's words and seeing the worried look on their faces, Han Xi's eyes warmed up in her heart, and she slowly shook her head.
"Don't worry, it's nothing."
As soon as Han Xi Tong's words fell, the little servant who was originally responsible for holding the horse also immediately came back to his senses from his daze. Seeing that all the masters were not people he could afford to offend, he was so frightened that he hastily knelt down on the ground and kowtowed, begging for mercy in a state of panic.
"Seventh prince, forgive me! I don't know what's going on either. This horse is usually very gentle, and I have no idea what happened just now..."
"You have no idea! Fortunately, Ling'er is fine, otherwise I won't forgive you!"
Upon hearing Xiao Shu's words, Xing Xiuyan's face turned red with anger. Han Xi immediately grabbed his arm and tried to calm him down with gentle words.
"It's no wonder, actually. Animals don't have souls anyway, right? Maybe I just don't have a connection with animals!"
Han Xi Tong's face was filled with gloom. Since she was young, it seemed like she couldn't get along with animals. She clearly loved animals so much, but either she got bitten by a snake or when she saw cute little dogs and wanted to pet them, they would chase her around; when she saw pitiful stray cats and wanted to take them home, they would scratch her with their claws, leaving behind several bloody claw marks...
For these painful experiences, Han Xi's eyes were extremely speechless and depressed.
As soon as she spoke out these words, a burst of thunderous laughter erupted. Han Xi's eyes became even more gloomy.
"What should I do now?"
She didn't want to ride it again and be kicked off, but looking at Tianqi and the others riding horses with such elegance and poise, she couldn't help but feel envious.
Seeing the look of distress and envy in Han Xi's eyes, Xing Xiao immediately hooked his mouth, jumped up, and flipped onto the horse. He then stretched out his long hand towards Han Xi, smiled and said.
"Come."
"Uh..."
When Han Xi heard Xiang Xiao Ran's words, she turned her head and looked at Xiang Xiao Ran on the horseback.
The sun on her head was very bright, and the light it emitted made Han Xi's eyes narrow slightly.
All that can be seen is the young man who stretched out his hand to her at this moment, because of the relationship with the back against the light, the whole slender body seems to be surrounded by a layer of golden light, suddenly showing nobility.
That jade-like face, those fine and beautiful Danfeng eyes are filled with thick doting, almost drowning her. The light and pretty red lips slightly hooked, that smile, so clean, like a water lily after a heavy rain, covered in raindrops, breathtakingly beautiful!
"Haha, so beautiful..."
Han Xi Tong couldn't help but sigh inwardly and also inadvertently spoke out her innermost thoughts.
After hearing that, the smile on her face deepened, and there was joy between her eyebrows, like a child who had just received praise from an adult, secretly delighted.
Then, seemingly a bit embarrassed, she lowered her eyelashes and said in a soft voice.
"Your eyes are really beautiful too..."
"Uh...Xiao Ran, I just said your horse looks good! Did you misunderstand something?"
Han Xi Tong looked at Xuan Xiao Ran with a surprised gaze, and Xuan Xiao Ran's face suddenly turned red as he listened. His originally pale cheeks quickly flushed with two bright red spots, and even his ear roots turned red.
That excessively red face made him look both pitiful and lovely at this moment.
Xiao Ran was so embarrassed that she wanted to die, a pair of overly beautiful eyes kept lowering, as if wanting to find a seam on the ground to drill into, so naturally she didn't see the cunning light at the bottom of Han Xi's eyes.
Watching Xun Xiao Ran's embarrassed face, Han Xi suddenly suppressed the urge to burst out laughing and smiled as she said.
"Alright alright, I was just teasing you earlier. Look at your red face, it's as if you're blushing like a monkey!"
Han Xi's eyes sparkled with laughter as she said that, and then stretched out her small hand to grasp Xun Xiao Ran's large one.
Although Xue'er felt embarrassed and uneasy in her heart, she still pulled her up. After all, there were two wolves beside him, how could he let the opportunity slip away?
Although at this moment he had an urge to strangle the little woman in front of him for the first time in his life...
But when I saw her smiling curved eyes, all the awkward anger finally turned into a sigh of helplessness...
Who made him fall in love with this mischievous and stubborn little woman? He could only admit it!
If someone else dared to treat him like this! Hmph!
Xiao Ran thought in her heart, her face still red.
Han Xi, who was pulled onto the horse and sat in front of him, seemed to have noticed that Xun Xiao Ran's anger had not dissipated, and involuntarily turned his face, meeting Xun Xiao Ran's handsome face, which was still fuming with anger, and burst out laughing.
"Still angry!? You're just like a little kid!"
"You're just a kid! I'm obviously older than you, okay?! And who would be happy about being tricked?!"
Facing Han Xi's smiling and lovely little face, that appearance was like a mischievous and adorable little kitten. Even if there was the greatest anger in her heart, it would have dissipated by more than half when she saw her smile.
Nowadays, when she hears her speaking to him in a grown-up tone, Xun Xiao Ran's red lips curl up high, grumbling discontentedly.
He just didn't understand, Ling'er was obviously one year younger than him, yet she always wore an adult-like expression when facing him, as if she were much older than him. This little woman who always pretended to be mature!
Xing Xiang was secretly thinking that in fact, Han Xi Tong was indeed older than him...
This year's Han Xi Tong is already 22 years old, although she has crossed over into this body that is only 16 years old, but her heart is also older than Xing Xiao Ran, and it's because of this reason that she often treats Xing Xiao Ran as a younger brother!
Han Xi's eyes naturally wouldn't tell him these things, after all, even if she said them out loud, it's uncertain whether anyone would believe her.
Then, after everyone had mounted their horses, they whipped their long whips and galloped into the hunting grounds.
And for this match, these three men are still very much anticipated.
But in the end, it was up to that gamble whether it would be the winning hand or the beauty's heart, and this they themselves knew best...

Little Fourth: My mom said, everyone has a silver spoon to feed the birds, only I don't. My mom said we can't afford to raise me, so I'm here holding this sign, with a pair of teary eyes, pitifully gazing at you all...
"Support me! Dear!"
