"The culprit?" Huai Mei swallowed a mouthful of saliva and carefully raised her eyes to look at Meng Zixian. She did not dare to reply.

Song Que smiled and didn't continue asking. It could not be any clearer that it was she who caused this.

Meng Zixian squatted down and turned Gu Jingcheng's face over.

"I was knocked unconscious by Beauty Huai, but the matter didn't seem to be that simple. Although I don't know much about medicine, I can still feel his pulse. It's kind of weird, come over here and take a look. "

Song Que nodded his head and walked over. He bent down and wanted to check Jing Cheng's pulse.

However, Meng Zixian was just about to move the place for him when she stood up. As she stood up, the arrow barrel on Meng Zixian's back hit Song Qi He's jaw.

With a groan, Meng Zixian turned her head and saw Song Que holding her chin and said to her, "You missed the direct attack, but you missed the surprise attack."

Meng Zixian realized that she was still carrying the quiver on her back. Seeing the pain on his face, she felt comfortable, "Isn't Master Song calculating so much that I have to get up before I can do it?"

Couldn't be bothered to argue with him, Song Que rubbed his chin and reached out his hand to check Gu Jing Cheng's pulse.

As soon as he did, Song Que's face became gloomy.

"He wasn't knocked out. He was poisoned." Carefully exploring Gu Jing Cheng's body, Song Qi continued: "There's no obvious injury. For the time being, I have no way of knowing how it was poisoned. "

A look of surprise flashed across both Huai Mei and Meng Zixian's face. In this hunting grounds, there was actually someone who poisoned the Prince?

Song Que pointed at a few acupuncture points on Gu Jing Cheng's body: "I sealed his acupuncture points, so the poison won't spread temporarily. The hunt ends at dawn, so I'll bring him back then."

"Aren't you going to bring us?" Although the hunt ended after dawn, she was still somewhat afraid that they would meet some evil people on the road.

"It doesn't seem like a good idea for you to be with an outsider like me. "You are all prey, aren't you making people suspicious when the prey returns with the hunters?"

Song Que turned his head and looked at Meng Zixian, "I will leave as soon as the sun rises. You need to figure out the time. When the time is right, we will go back. By that time, everyone will have gathered back at camp."

As the four of them slept in the cave, dressed as they were, Huai Mei was still the fastest to fall asleep.

Song Que and Meng Zixian sat face to face with a trace of vigilance on their faces.

"Did you come to the depths of the forest to find me?" Meng Zixian asked the question that was on his mind. He was not here to hunt, so why had he come to the most secluded area in the forest?

"Don't think too much into it. I just want to make sure that you are not dead. Not you. If you are dead, even if I searched the entire East Peak, it would still be hard to find someone like you."

Meng Zixian's mouth twisted into a cold smile.

After dawn, Song Qi carried the unconscious Gu Jing City out of the cave.

Meng Zixian looked at the sun outside and estimated that it was about time. She then walked towards the woods exit together with Huai Beauty.

Fortunately, Meng Zixian had a photographic memory, so the journey back was smooth and he did not make too many detours.

After exiting the forest, they saw a large group of people standing on a wide grassland. Upon seeing the two girls walk out, they all had different expressions.

The emperor Gu Jingyuan was chewing the melon fruits the palace maids were feeding him. He casually glanced at Huai Mei and Meng Zixian.

"I never thought that not only does Beauty Huai have her looks, she is also risking her life." According to the rules, those who could survive through the hunt would be rewarded, and the people behind them would also be rewarded.

After Gu Jingyuan finished speaking, he ordered the people beside him to move a better courtyard over for Beauty Huai and also gave his father, Lord Qin, a reward.

At this time, Beauty Huai's heart was filled with hate towards Gu Jingyuan, but she was forced to pretend that she was a thousand times more charming, and smiled flirtatiously at Gu Jingyuan: "Thank you for Your Majesty's bestowment. "Chenqie doesn't want to disappoint the emperor! She still wants to live on and accompany the emperor!"

These words made Gu Jingyuan feel satisfied. His fat face had a smile full of wrinkles.

He turned his head to look at Meng Zixian and suddenly remembered the sickly look on Meng Zixian's face as he carried the soup. His face immediately darkened.

"I remember you are a beauty Xian, right? The last time I saw you, you seemed to be very sick. You actually survived the hunt? "

Meng Zixian glanced at the officials behind Gu Jingyuan, but didn't see the figures of Song Qi and Gu Jingcheng.

"Perhaps chenqie has great fortune." Meng Zixian smiled, and his tone was cold.

The officials looked at Meng Zixian and started to discuss with each other.

Gu Jingyuan narrowed his eyes and coldly said to the eunuch at the side: "Just give me a bit of it, it's boring."

Everyone saw that the emperor was not in a good mood so they all looked at Meng Zixian.

Huai Mei looked at Meng Zixian from the side and her eyes instantly flashed. She walked up and pouted pitifully at Gu Jingyuan: "Your majesty, can chenqie go back and wash up first? The mountain forest is so dirty, this chenqie doesn't want these officials to look at her. "

Even though in Gu Jingyuan's eyes, the life and death of a beauty wasn't important, but when Beauty Huai came back alive and acted like a spoiled child to him, Gu Jingyuan still continued to be like this.

He waved his hand and said to everyone, "Yesterday, the hunters would go to Eunuch De's place to discuss injuries. "After the reward, we will ride back to the capital. I am tired, so I need to go back and have a good rest."

Huai Mei smiled as she tiptoed and kissed Gu Jingyuan on the cheek. The little bird snuggled close to Gu Jingyuan's neck as they made love.

As she was following Gu Jingyuan and leaving, Beauty Huai turned her head slightly to look at Meng Zixian and nodded to her.

At this moment, Meng Zixian suddenly laughed. Just now, this beauty Huai was helping him out, changing Gu Jingyuan's target. Looks like this beauty Huai is a child to be taught.

Meng Zixian couldn't help but admire the beauty Huai. For her father and her family, she could kiss the fat head and big ears like a pig of an emperor. Furthermore, she knew that the emperor didn't take her seriously at all.

She, Meng Zixian, might not be able to match such a tolerant acting skill.

After everyone left, Meng Zixian went back to her own tent. When she opened the curtain, she saw Song Qi sitting inside.

Startled, she walked into the tent and put down the curtain. Meng Zixian's eyes looked at Song Qi who was sitting in the tent drinking tea and said coldly, "Does Master Song like to barge into women's chambers? Not even sparing the tents? "

Song Que didn't look angry and just took out a handkerchief from his sleeve and put it on the table. The handkerchief was embroidered with flowers; it was obvious that it was the woman's personal belongings.

Meng Zixian frowned. "What is this? Which woman did you steal it from? "

Song Que looked at him with a smile: "I'm not you. I like to do things like stealing."

He reached for the handkerchief, and Meng Zixian gently caressed the cloth and embroidery of the handkerchief.

"Top quality fabric that only the people in the palace possess... Embroidery is also a double-sided embroidery .. "

Song Que nodded: "Mhm, I knew you were someone who knew what was good for you."

Meng Zixian sneered, "You came to my tent to give me a handkerchief?"

Song Que shook his head and the smile on his face was quickly replaced: "It's on Gu Jing Cheng. There's poison on this handkerchief. It's something that can knock people unconscious."
