Chapter 292 Hidden Mysteries

Beside him was Tang Peirou, who had not seen him for many days.

"Why are you here?" Ye Zhaoyan was a little surprised.

"Well, Miss Tang invited me, thinking that she had nothing to do, she came." Ji Sinian lowered her eyes slightly, "You are alone, I can take care of you even if I come."

Tang Peirou looked at her, and then looked at Ji Sinian beside her, with her lips slightly raised: "Miss Ye, let's go and prepare first, and autumn hunting will start later."

Ye Zhao said goodbye to the two of them, and was in a state of unstable mood. Ji Sinian must have noticed something and came. If it weren't for the list of Qiu Hunting this time, she wouldn't have risked her participation.

"Miss Ye, please use tea." A perceived voice came. Ye Zhaoyan looked in the voice. A maid wearing a light green dress came respectfully with a cup of jade cup, and handed it to her with gentle eyes, "I, Biluo, wait for you to use tea."

Ye Zhaoyan was slightly stunned. This maid... was actually the maid she had met in the Prince Zhuo Mansion.

She raised her eyes and looked around without any trace. She found a person standing not far from the right, wearing a brocade robe with crescent white embroidered gold silk and a jade pendant around her waist. She had a beautiful and gentle face and extraordinary temperament. She was staring at herself, her clear and clean eyes were a little worried.

It's Zhuo Yibai.

Ye Zhaoyan slightly withdrew his gaze, took the hot tea handed by Biluo, and when he held the bottom of the teacup with his right hand, he felt a small object, which seemed to be a folded note.

She hurriedly retracted her sleeves, pretended that she was splashed by tea and gently wiped her sleeves, and opened the note.

“There is a hidden place in the hunting ground, be careful.”

A few numbers made Ye Zhaoyan's pupils shrink rapidly, and his heart was filled with storm.

She thought that this autumn hunting was just a chance for King Qing to attack her, and she had thought of a solution in advance, but she didn't expect that there was an ambush on the hunting ground, hiding other purposes.

Ye Zhaoyan picked up the teacup and quickly wiped the ink on the note, and then took a sip of the tea. The tea was sweet and mellow, and it was the best Biluochun that made her heart slightly calmer.

Since she came, she would be at peace. No matter how difficult and dangerous the road ahead, she decided to fight with all her might.

After a while, Emperor Donglin and several ministers walked up the steps and stood on a high seat.

He was wearing a black dragon robe and a purple gold crown on his head. He was tall and majestic. He walked along the way and had a look of looking down on the eight wildernesses, which made people look sideways.

"Your Majesty, this autumn hunting is to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the founding of Tianlu. I think the competition hunting should be held and the third place should be selected to show the great grace of the emperor and let the people remember our emperor long live, and to boost the power of our Tianlu Dynasty." Chen Zhiqing, Minister of War, stepped forward and said.

Emperor Donglin looked around and saw that all the ministers had arrived. He said loudly: "It is worth it. Today, the rules of autumn hunting still follow the ancestral system. There is only one difference. All the top three can ask me for rewards."

The courtiers knelt down and bowed.

After a while, the sound of trumpets sounded on the hunting ground, and everyone stood up one after another, walked to the designated location according to their own arrangements, waiting for the guards to assign the number plates.

After a stick of incense, the guards led each family into the venue, with a total of 275 people.

Ye Zhaoyan mixed among the female guests and went to the tent, waiting to change into the hood of autumn hunting, before being taken to the entrance of the hunting ground.

The autumn hunting is very popular every year, with both royal participation and generous rewards. It is of great weight. Even women will dress solemnly, so most families can only wear fixed clothes that are given away.

The styles of clothes are similar, but they are also divided into gorgeous and simple, with different colors and materials. These noble girls who are used to dressing up naturally hope to get a beautiful outfit.

Ye Zhaoyan was born in a military general's family and had already known this. There were many dresses in the mansion that comply with the regulations. However, she was not very interested in beautiful clothes and had already changed into the dark blue dress she brought. Her black hair was simply tied up with a black green wooden hairpin, and a dagger was hung across her waist. She was heroic and powerful.

Most of the other noble women who have changed their clothes get light-colored and elegant outfits, and few of them have higher identities get concubines, red-colored and purple outfits.

The Princess Kunyu of Nanyue was wearing a strong red outfit, which was very conspicuous among the crowd.

"Miss Ye," an elderly palace maid came over with a tray and said with a smile, "This is the clothes that your majesty ordered to hand over to the slaves."

There was a strong dress of crabapple red in the tray, which was exquisitely crafted. You could tell at a glance that it was made of imperial sterns in the palace. The chest and shoulders were embroidered with exquisite dark patterns. When you look closely, you found that there were lifelike phoenixes and peonies, which looked quite honorable. The material of this dress was very precious, and it was woven with gold thread on it to make the dress look luxurious and unique, completely different from other clothes. Ye Zhaoyan hesitated for a moment, reached out to take it down, and said "Thank you."

The palace maid left for blessing and soon disappeared at the corner.

"Miss Ye." Suddenly, a gentle female voice called her. After a moment, Tang Peirou's face appeared at the door of the tent.

Ye Zhaoyan was a little confused. When he came to him at this time, something must be wrong.

Sure enough, seeing Tang Peirou showing concern on her face, she whispered: "It was Mr. Ji who asked me to come here. He said that this autumn hunting hidden secrets, so he specially asked me to see the color of Miss Ye's clothes just in case."

Ye Zhaoyan instantly understood what she meant. Once Qiuli entered the venue, everyone would be scattered. The venue was large. It would be very inconvenient to identify the noble ladies scattered in each family. The best way was probably the color of the clothes.

Thinking of this, she looked down at the red begonia clothes in her hand, her eyes narrowed slightly, and such a bright color seemed to be a unique mark.

In addition to Kunyu, Mo Xueyuan and several royal relatives, few noble girls wore such gorgeous colors.

This dress was sent by the people from Emperor Donglin, and it must have its intention. She didn't believe that he would give someone a dress for no reason.

Although she was unwilling to confront the Donglin Emperor brothers, if the other party really wanted to use this to plot against the Ye family, she would never wait to die.

Ye Zhaoyan pondered for a moment, and suddenly heard a commotion outside. She lifted the curtain and looked over and found that several other noble girls from aristocratic families were arguing.

"This dress was rewarded by Your Majesty, why should you rob it?" The person who spoke was Zhang Qilan, the eldest daughter of the Minister of the Honglu Temple. She was holding a green and strong suit, with a graceful figure, and her ink hair was tied into a flying fairy bun. She inserted a red coral bead hairpin into an oblique manner, and a red flower ornament was pasted on her forehead, which exuded a charm in her arrogance.

"I should have chosen this dress first, and I came here earlier than any of you."

"You're messing around..."

...

Ye Zhaoyan frowned and watched coldly.

Eventually, the dress fell into the hands of another person.

Zhang Qilan's face turned pale and she stared at the concubine daughter of the Zhan Shi Mansion named Yuan Wan'er, but she held back her anger due to the presence of a group of noble girls.
