This hunting event was a grand spectacle. A few days before, the Crown Prince had ordered the hunting grounds to be cleaned up, and a camp was set up at the foot of the mountain. Since the Emperor and Empress couldn't sit outside upon arrival, Yan Junchu was busy these days, and the couple could only meet before they went to bed in the evening.
The day of the hunt arrived quickly, and Su Xinyi and the Crown Prince got up early. The Crown Prince went to the morning court, and Su Xinyi joined the Empress at Yuanhui Palace after breakfast. They waited together until it was time to set out.
In Yuanhui Palace, the Empress smiled as Su Xinyi arrived and asked, "How are the preparations going?"
Su Xinyi replied, "Everything is mostly ready. We have a makeshift team, not too strong but shouldn't disgrace us too much. Your Majesty can rest assured."
