Chapter 238 Perhaps, he's just resentful.
Chu Yueli was indeed injured, but only slightly.
The men around her were instantly stunned when she dismounted from her horse and hoisted the black bear onto her shoulder.
This girl looks delicate and frail, yet her movements are as agile and swift as a dragon.
"Your Majesty, the Duke's Mansion has lived up to its mission and brought back the prey that Your Majesty designated!" Chu Yueli knelt on one knee.
This kneeling gesture, devoid of any feminine coquettishness, displayed the demeanor of a great general in every word and action.
The emperor could not hide his astonishment.
An Delu had mixed feelings.
After a moment of distraction, the Empress immediately laughed and said, "Good! Very good! Ali is indeed a heroine! There are no weak women in the Duke's mansion. Ming Ruonan's daughter is indeed a formidable woman!"
After a slight pause, the Emperor finally smiled: "Not bad, An Delu, go and see if it is the black bear you ordered to be placed there?"
"Yes, Your Majesty." An Delu immediately went down and walked to the black bear's side, but he didn't dare to get too close.
Chu Xiaohe and Huo Qing quickly came over and flipped the black bear over.
"It's this one! Your Majesty, it is indeed this black bear!" Andelu shouted immediately.
The emperor nodded.
An Delu hurriedly announced loudly, "The Duke's Mansion has emerged victorious in today's hunting competition!"
Surrounded by people from the Duke's mansion and the Empress, no one else applauded.
However, that deathly silence only lasted for a brief moment. After that, regardless of their mood, everyone applauded and praised the people of the Duke's Mansion.
No one wanted to believe that the Duke's family had won the autumn hunt.
This was their first time competing under their own name, and they had already performed so well. Some people were unconvinced, some didn't believe it, and some were unwilling to accept it.
I have all sorts of feelings.
"Your Majesty, Prince Mo has also returned." Before long, everyone saw people from Prince Mo's residence carrying out several black bears.
Of course, neither of them were the one designated by the Emperor.
As for the people of the Mo Prince's Mansion, apart from Prince Mo himself, who was also covered in dust and blood, everyone else was safe and sound.
"Mo'er, are you injured?" the Empress asked immediately.
Lu Beimo came over, bowed to the Emperor and Empress, and then said, "Father and Mother, it's just a minor scratch, nothing to worry about. Please rest assured, Mother."
The Empress nodded, turned her head to the Emperor and smiled, "Look at Mo'er's physique, so strong, he truly has the air of a great general like Your Majesty did back then."
The emperor also smiled as he looked at his son, his eyes filled with admiration.
However, when one's gaze falls on the mask on his face, one cannot help but sigh silently.
He waved his hand, signaling the people from the Mo Prince's Mansion to go back and rest.
After that, the lines that went in gradually came out.
Consort Rui grew increasingly anxious. Why hadn't the Prince Jin's retinue arrived yet?
Even if they didn't catch the designated prey, they should have come out by now. Delaying the hunt is more serious than not catching any prey at all.
"Your Majesty, is there any danger at the hunting grounds? Jin'er, he..."
"Please rest assured, Consort Rui, although there are some black bears and wild beasts in the hunting grounds, they are all alone and pose no threat to a master as skilled as Prince Jin."
The Empress's smile grew even brighter: "I'm afraid Prince Jin couldn't catch the designated prey and was dissatisfied, so he's still searching inside, unaware that the prey has already been carried back by Ali."
Consort Rui's face immediately darkened: "What does the Empress mean? Are you saying that my Jin'er is not as good as a little maid?"
