Cen Hongmian's proposal was approved by everyone. Everyone mounted their horses, turned their horses' heads, left the royal hunting ground, and returned to the royal courtyard.

As for the spotted leopard that had just died, as well as the wild boar hunted by Cen Hongmian and Jin Muchen, of course they all had their entourage visiting the Royal Courtyard together.

All in all, Cen Hongmian, Jin Muchen, Cen Xiyan and other girls, this group of people, had only spent half a day entering the royal hunting grounds.

When they went out from the gate of the Royal Hunting Ground, the guards and soldiers at the gate couldn't help but widen their eyes with surprise on their faces when they saw that they had received such a proud harvest in just half a day.

and an expression of admiration.

But no one in this group enjoyed such gazes. Because they almost had an accident, everyone was still in shock. Cen Hongmian and Jin Muchen were men, but the prey was not shot by them, and they almost didn't protect it.

Sisters, of course there is nothing to be proud of.

Although Cen Xiqin had the reputation of "hunting leopards", she knew in her heart that the spotted leopard did not die in her hands, which made her feel awkward all the time.

After Jin Fang was frightened, she still hadn't recovered much.

As for Cen Xiyan, she actually didn't take this matter as a big deal at all, so she was as calm and calm as ever.

As a result, everyone didn't talk much on the way back. The atmosphere was not at all the joy of hunting and harvesting a good harvest, but rather a bit dull.

After returning to the Royal Courtyard, Cen Muchen and Cen Hongmian discussed it and decided to escort the three girls Cen Xiyan, Cen Xiqin, and Jin Fang back to the city together.

The three girls also knew that it was time for them to go back. They originally planned to go back to the city this afternoon, but it was more than an hour earlier than expected. Although they did not have much fun going to the hunting ground this time, it happened.

What happened before, they are no longer in the mood to have fun at the moment.

A few people had a simple lunch at the Royal Courtyard. Jin Muchen left a message for Mo Junxuan and others before setting off back to the city.

On the way back, of course, they were not as leisurely and leisurely as when they came yesterday. Everyone sped up and entered the city just as the sun was setting.

Almost all the powerful families in Sheng'an City are concentrated in the northeastern part of the city. The distance between Zhongyonghou's Mansion and Prince Lu's Mansion is not too far, so after entering the city, everyone still has a long way to go, but Prince Lu's Mansion is still more

Closer.

At the fork in the alley that was about to separate, Jin Fang suddenly stopped, Brick, and said to Cen Hongmian and Jin Muchen who were following him: "Master Cen, brother, can you go away a little bit? I want to follow Qin'er and Xi Yan

Say a few words."

Naturally, it was not easy for men to listen to the whispers of their daughter's family. Cen Hongmian and Jin Muchen smiled in understanding and stepped back a distance. At the same time, they ordered the accompanying guards behind them to stand further away.

Jin Fang glanced at Xiao Miao who was beside her, and Xiao Miao wisely avoided it. Upon seeing this, Ying Xue and Xiao Yi also retreated a distance together.

Only the three of them were left. Jin Fang looked at Cen Xiyan and said in a very low voice: "Xiyan, thank you."

In fact, Jin Fang just wanted to say thank you to Cen Xiyan in person. Cen Xiqin stayed here as a cover to hide from others.

Cen Xiyan smiled slightly at Jin Fang and said, "I accept your thanks, but you don't need to take this matter to heart."

"I know." Jin Fang paused for a moment, then barely made a sound and said with lip language: "Don't worry, I will keep it a secret."

Cen Xiyan still smiled and said nothing, but nodded slightly to Jin Fang, and looked at Jin Fang with a little more trust in his eyes.

Although Cen Xiyan has only known Jin Fang for two days, Cen Xiyan thinks that he still has some discernment in looking at people, and judging from the fact that Jin Fang is willing to let Cai Ruyu go, she is a very kind girl.

She is willing to try to trust her and become a true friend with her.

Cen Xiqin next to him remained silent, his mouth was slightly pouted, and he looked depressed and listless.

When Jin Fang saw Cen Xiqin like this, she couldn't help but sigh and said to her: "Qin'er, you too, since you've already... don't think too much about it."

"Since it's already..." The three girls all knew what was omitted after that.

Cen Xiqin nodded, raised the corners of his mouth, smiled, and said, "Don't worry... As long as you're fine."

The exchange between the three girls didn't last long, and they finished talking quickly. The brothers and sisters from the two families separated at a fork in the road.

As for the two large prey animals, the wild boar returned to Prince Lu's palace, and the spotted leopard was taken back to the Cen family by the guards of the Cen family.

After Cen Hongmian, Cen Xiyan and Cen Xiqin returned to Cen Mansion, they first went back to their own courtyards.

Cen Xiyan washed up, changed clothes, let Yingxue rest in the courtyard, and then took Jingshuang to Madam Li's courtyard to report that she was safe.

The reason why Cen Xiyan did this was because, although Mrs. Li was not her biological mother, she was her aunt, and her identity was there. She had just returned home, and she didn't want to be picked on for some etiquette issues. Moreover,

When she and Cen Xiqin left the house, they agreed to come back the same day, but they ended up being delayed for a whole day. Even though they had sent someone to deliver the letter, now that they were back, it was better to go and talk to them in person. There is nothing wrong with being polite.

At Li's place, Cen Xiyan met Cen Xiqin without any surprise. The two sisters sat at Li's place for a while, talked for a while, and then went to Mrs. Cen's Furong Garden together.

Cen Hongmian happened to be here and was talking to Mrs. Cen. At this time, the old lady had already learned from Cen Hongmian that several girls encountered wild beasts in the hunting ground. Cen Xiqin shot and killed the spotted leopard and saved them.

What happened to the little princess of Prince Lu's Mansion? The old lady had a very vivid expression of fear, joy and sorrow on her face.

Seeing Cen Xiyan and Cen Xiqin coming in, he quickly waved to them, "Come here quickly and show me to grandma. Are you two sisters scared?"

"Grandma..." Cen Xiqin took two quick steps and sat next to Mrs. Cen. He reached out and hugged the old lady's arm, and rubbed his little face on the old lady's arm.

Being close and coquettish is no different from how ordinary granddaughters get along with their grandmothers. Perhaps, among all the granddaughters of Mrs. Cen, only Cen Xiqin dares to be so close to her without any pretense. The look on the old lady’s face

He suddenly showed an expression of love and distress.

Cen Xiyan also sat over, but she was not as close as Cen Xiqin, and she would not act coquettishly with Mrs. Cen like Cen Xiqin did. However, in her heart, she was actually a bit envious, and this scene made her even more jealous.
