In order to showcase the power and strength of an empire, the Xing Palace was rather large for a hunting ground.
Ye Zhen Zhen's room is directly beside Ji Wu Jiu. Both of their rooms are very big, and are well decorated as well. In front of Ji Wu Jiu's room there were a few armed soldiers guarding, not moving with a straight face, almost like a tree. Below the window a tiger was lying there, the arrow on his head earlier has been removed.
There were people walking pass the door every now and then, everyone's gaze will fall on the tiger, and then after they will pass by. In their hearts thinking who will Ji Wu Jiu give the tiger too.
According to customs, every year during the hunt, the emperor will give away the things that he hunted himself, to the ministers. Even if it was a pigeon it, it was still from the emperor. Last time Ye Xiu Ming and Fang Xiu Qing has both received them before, though both of them will receive similar items so that they appear to have equal power, but this time it is different, there is only one tiger, who will the emperor gift it to?
Besides Ji Wu Jiu, everyone else was thinking about this matter.
At night, Ji Wu Jiu did not return to his own room, but went to Ye Zhen Zhen's place. Seeing that she was being cold towards him, and did not respond will to him, he felt bored and went to Xian Concubine's room.
Xian Concubine was removing her make up when he came in, Xian Concubine saw Ji Wu Jiu from her copper mirror and quickly pushed Qiu Feng away, and greeted the emperor. She was wearing thin clothes, hair untied, with no make up, making her look rather pitiful.
Ji Wu Jiu helped Xian Concubine up, and his gaze got attracted to an accessory on the table. A hair ornament, with a hole in the middle. The one that Ye Zhen Zhen's arrow gone through.
Seeing her hair ornament, Xian Concubine also felt that she was embarrassing earlier on, and quickly changed the topic "Your majesty, I heard that you caught a tiger today?"
"En". If it was not for him manage to arrive on time, Ye Zhen Zhen would have been swallowed by the tiger.
"Congratulations your majesty, you are truly brave and heroic"
Ji Wu Jiu held up that hair ornament, and looked at it carefully. Ye Zhen Zhen's unwillingness face from this morning floated into his mind, if he did not make her get rid of the hidden arrow, most probably she would not have gotten herself into that situation.
Ji Wu Jiu let out a sigh, and threw the hair ornament back to the table.

Ji Wu Jiu announced that he will gift the tiger to Ye Zhen Zhen. Most people felt surprised, thinking about the rumor about Ji Wu Jiu not liking the empress, on how much can that rumor be trusted, and in the same time congratulating Ye Xiu Ming.
Ye Xiu Ming, held his beard and laughed "What happens between the husband and wife, we don't really have a say". Although that was what he say, but in his heart he was thinking about Fang Xiu Qing's daughter, thinking that she isn't that good after all.
Currently Xian Concubine's expression is not too good as well, but lucky for her it was dark so it cannot be detected easily.
Tonight's banquet was held outside, they all held a fire and gathered around to drink some wine and to eat meat. Ye Zhen Zhen was holding on to a roasted lamb leg, and eating with great appetite, that definitely can't showcase her being the mother of the country. She thought it through, Ji Wu Jiu was originally not someone good, earlier on she fell into his trap, but it was because she was not clever enough, next time she just have to be more careful, that's all. Furthermore, he did save her, although the reason she nearly died, he also plays a part.
Anyway, not thinking about it would be best.
Ji Wu Jiu turned and saw the earnestly roast lamb eating Ye Zhen Zhen, and shook his head.
