MTL - You Are Not In Exile, You Are Clearly Traveling!-Chapter 40 Hunting incident
Chapter 40 Hunting incident
Although Mr. Chen didn’t want his daughter to go hunting, he still agreed, not because of Chen’s mother’s majesty, but because he felt that Chen’s mother’s words were very reasonable.
Even after thinking about it, he decided to go along himself.
In the evening, the exile team stopped and looked for a suitable place to camp and rest.
Not long after, Xu Tian came to the door.
He didn't expect Mr. Chen to come to hunt in person. He was a little flattered and a little nervous for a while, as if he was worried that Mr. Chen would be injured.
Seeing Xu Tian gathering around his father to greet him, the word "licking the dog" 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. How could he have a little fanboy?
“Hey, Xu Tian, are you looking for help?”
A group of government servants came over and saw Mr. Chen, but they ignored him and started teasing Xu Tian.
Hearing this, other government officials also laughed, "This is not a helper, it is clearly a hindrance."
Obviously, not all of these government officials had good relations with each other.
"That's enough." Xu Tian suddenly became furious, "You are not allowed to insult Mr. Chen."
“Hey, return it to Mr. Chen?” the latest officer said disdainfully, “Now we are all prisoners, but you are the only one who foolishly thinks that he is a superior person. 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. His Majesty personally tried the case, and it was impossible to overturn the case.
“That’s enough, what do I want to do, what does it have 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 of people suddenly burst into laughter, "Hahaha, don't you realize it yet? Every time I hunt, I can't even catch the rabbit fur. I set the trap myself, but instead of catching the prey, I catch myself." "
“Hahaha, if you catch 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. The fish he caught either fell into the river and was covered with mud.
Catching rabbits. After chasing them for a long time, I was almost exhausted and couldn’t catch any rabbit fur.
When I took out a bird's egg, I pulled out a snake.
Even once, 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 officer 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?”
Hearing this, the others laughed even louder, "I mean, Brother Wei, you want us to laugh to death. Prisoners like them have no weapons and no experience. It would be great if they could avoid being caught by Xu Tian's trap." ”
Hunting is not a very simple matter. They know that Mr. Chen is a high-ranking official and usually works in the court. It is not like them running outside every day. How can 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 are you betting on?” 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 a helper, then let’s bet on who can catch more prey.”
"Okay!" Xu Tian agreed without hesitation, "If you lose, apologize to Mr. Chen."
“What if you lose?” the yamen servant said indifferently.
“Then I apologize to you.”
"no."
The yamen servant had already thought about the bet. He looked at Chen Xue behind Xu Tian and salivated, "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 this hunting. Let's take our leave."
It's okay to laugh at himself before. He has a lot of money and doesn't care about it, but if he targets his daughter, he won't agree.
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 asked you to leave!”
The government officials quickly stopped Master Chen and the two of them, preventing them from leaving. Seeing this, Xu Tian rushed over.
“What are you doing! Get out of the way!”
Seeing that the government officials did not respond, Xu Tian turned to look at the leading government officials and said, "Kangwei, this matter has nothing to do with Mr. Chen, let them leave."
"Come when you want, leave when you want, it's not that simple." 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 Converse angrily. Although he was no longer the Minister of Household Affairs, his official power 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 descendant, 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..."
Speaking, Converse glanced at Chen Xue and licked his lips, obviously thinking about something bad.
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'll grab 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's relationship with him is much better than that 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 Mr. 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 took action, 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."
