Although Mr. Chen didn't want his daughter to go hunting, he still agreed, not because of Mother Chen's majesty, but because he felt that Mother Chen's words were very reasonable.
He even thought about it and decided to go along himself.
In the evening, the exiled team stopped and looked for a suitable place to camp and rest.
It didn't take long for Xu Tian to come to the door.
He didn't expect Master Chen to come to hunt in person. He was flattered and nervous for a while, as if he was worried that Master Chen would be injured.
Seeing Xu Tian chatting with his father around him, the word "dog licking" popped into Chen Xue's mind.
She was a little confused. Her father was just a Minister of Household Affairs. His official position was neither high nor low, and he usually kept a low profile. Why did he have a little fanboy?
"Hey, Xu Tian, are you looking for help?"
A group of government servants came over. When they saw Mr. Chen, they ignored him and started joking at Xu Tian.
The other government officials also laughed when they heard this, "This is not a helper, it is clearly a hindrance."
Obviously, not all of these government officials have good relations with each other.
"That's enough." Xu Tian suddenly became furious, "You are not allowed to insult Lord Chen."
"Hey, return it to Lord Chen?" The latest Yamen servant said disdainfully, "Now we are all prisoners, and you are the only one who is stupid enough to treat him as such. He is a high-ranking lord, do you think he can recover? You are still fawning over him..."
They knew very well that the Chen family was the "mastermind" of the disaster relief grain embezzlement case, and it was personally tried by His Majesty, so it was impossible to overturn the case.
"Enough, what do I want to do has nothing to do with you!" Xu Tian was a little angry, but he was not good at arguing with others.
"I'm here to hunt, not to quarrel with you. If you don't want to hunt, don't bother us."
"Hunting?"
"Pfft!"
Hearing this, the group suddenly burst into laughter, "Hahaha, you still Don't you know yourself? Every time I hunt, I can't even catch rabbit fur, so I set the trap myself. Instead of catching the prey, I catch myself instead." "
Hahaha, if you catch the prey, the sows will climb up the trees. "
Xu Tian suddenly felt a little embarrassed. They used to go hunting during their breaks for a change of taste, but they didn't know if it was because he was unlucky or because he was really not good at hunting.
In short, every time other people had a good harvest, he came back empty-handed, catching fish or falling into the river, leaving it covered with mud.
After chasing the rabbit for a long time, I was almost exhausted and couldn't even catch the rabbit fur.
When I dug out a bird's egg, I pulled out a snake.
There was even a time when he set a trap but forgot where to put it. As a result, he fell into the trap but was rescued by others.
"Don't say that." The yamen servant who spoke first interrupted everyone's laughter, "Don't you think I've learned to be smart and know how to find helpers? Maybe I can really catch the prey?" "
Pfft~"
When the others heard this, they responded. Laughing louder, "Brother Wei, you want us to laugh to death. Prisoners like them have no weapons and no experience. It would be great if they can avoid being caught by Xu Tian's trap."
Hunting, but It was not a simple matter. They knew that Mr. Chen was a high-ranking official and usually worked in the court. It was not like they were running outside every day. How could they have hunting experience.
"What do you mean?" Xu Tian was a little angry. It was okay to mock himself, but it was not okay to mock Mr. Chen.
"I haven't caught prey before, it's just bad luck. Who said I couldn't catch prey? Besides, Mr. Chen, how can you belittle him? When Mr. Chen and His Majesty were hunting, you didn't know where they were? "
Oh? Really?" The yamen servant curled his lips and glanced at Chen Xue, "Then do you want to make a bet?"
"What bet?" Xu Tianlai was angry and just wanted to clear Mr. Chen's name.
"Well, let's bet on whether you can catch the prey today. However, if you have helpers, then let's bet on who can catch more prey."
"Okay!" Xu Tian agreed without hesitation, "If you lose, you will bet on who can catch more prey." Mr. Chen apologizes."
"Then what if you lose?" the yamen servant said indifferently.
"Then I apologize to you."
"No."
The yamen servant had already thought about the bet and looked at Chen Xue behind Xu Tian with salivation, "If you lose, give her to me."
"Dream!"
Before Xu Tian could speak, Mr. Chen refused without hesitation. He looked at Xu Tian and said, "We will not participate in the hunting this time. Farewell."
It was okay to mock him before. He had a lot of them and didn't care, but he was staring at him. He wouldn't agree to it if it was his daughter.
If there weren't so many of them, I would have wanted to rush over and punch him twice to let him know how stupid it was to hit his daughter.
"Stop!"
"Who told you to leave!"
The government officials quickly stopped Master Chen and refused to let them leave. Seeing this, Xu Tian rushed over.
"What are you doing! Get out of the way!"
Seeing that the government officials didn't respond, Xu Tian turned to look at the leader, "Converse, this matter has nothing to do with Mr. Chen, let them leave." "
Come if you want, leave if you want, How can it be such a simple thing?" The yamen servant named Kuangwei sneered, "Let that daughter play with us, and I will let them leave."
"You are looking for death!" Mr. Chen turned his head and stared at Kuangwei angrily, although he had already He was not the Minister of Household Affairs, but his official authority was still there, and Converse was immediately shocked.
"That's enough, you are making trouble, the captain will not let you go." Xu Tian was a little angry. Master Chen's daughter is naturally his junior, how could he let others have ideas about Chen Xue.
Converse glanced at Mr. Chen, not daring to look at him. When he heard Xu Tian's threat, his eyes suddenly flickered.
"Let's make a bet. If you win, I will let them go. If you lose, then..."
After saying that, Converse glanced at Chen Xue and licked his lips, obviously thinking about something bad. matter.
Xu Tian stopped in front of Mr. Chen and looked at Converse, "As I said, this matter has nothing to do with Mr. Chen. I bet you, but it has nothing to do with Mr. Chen and the others." "
Either make a bet with us, or I will rob it. "Converse said, interrupting what Xu Tian was about to say, "Don't use the captain to pressure me, the captain won't care about these things."
As long as it doesn't cause too much trouble, the captain won't care at all. After all, the captain and his The relationship is much better than the relationship with Xu Tian.
"You..."
Xu Tian regretted a little. He had known that he would not bring Mr. Chen here. He never expected that such a thing would happen.
Let him bet with Converse, he has no bottom at all, and more importantly, how could he use Master Chen's daughter as a bet.
However, from the look of Converse, it was obvious that he would not let it go easily. If he tried, he would not be able to stop him at all.
Forget it, even if I risk my life, I can't watch Mr. Chen's daughter being bullied.
"You are going to bet on who can catch more prey!" A sudden voice suddenly sounded, attracting everyone's attention, and Chen Xue walked out, "I'll bet with you.
