With that one sentence from Imperial Concubine Wei, many others immediately voiced out their agreement.

She was the only concubine from the palace that the emperor had brought this time, so it was only natural that many ladies would want to curry favour with her.

Even outside of the spring hunt, there would occasionally be a polo match or two held in the palace. Besides, the spring hunt was such a good opportunity to play.

Since Imperial Concubine Wei had spoken, there would also naturally be people who volunteered to organise things.

Feudal Princess Anmin stood up and looked in Royal Princess Duanjia’s direction with a smile. “I’ve long heard that Cousin Duanjia is skilled at polo, but I’ve never had the opportunity to see it for myself. Since a chance has presented itself, how about we each lead a team?”

Royal Princess Duanjia was indeed a great polo player. This was something that was well-known in the circles of the imperial family, and there was no need to hide it.

Before Princess Wei and Royal Princess Duanjia could reject the idea, Imperial Concubine Wei followed up.

“I’ve also heard about Duanjia’s skill. Since a rare opportunity has presented itself, Duanjia should show these bumpkins what’s what!”

Imperial Concubine Wei had spoken. It was very difficult to reject her at this point unless Royal Princess Duanjia had a real, physical excuse.

Chu Lian had read through half of the original story, so she was aware that Imperial Concubine Wei and Feudal Princess Anmin weren’t easy to deal with. This was especially so for Imperial Concubine Wei. Since she had spent many years in the palace, she definitely possessed some wit, along with the power to wield it.

While all this seemed like nothing out of the ordinary, there might be a trap hidden somewhere.

With these kinds of people who plotted many steps ahead, if one wasn’t smart enough, the best choice would be to keep a low profile.

But Imperial Concubine Wei seemed to have her sights locked on to Royal Princess Duanjia today. Just what was she intending to do?

Logically speaking, Prince Wei was the emperor’s most favoured brother, and Prince Wei never involved himself in politics at all. If Imperial Concubine Wei had some brains, she would behave amicably to be in the good graces of the emperor. She wouldn’t do something so stupid as to make things difficult for Royal Princess Duanjia, and she wouldn’t dare to make Prince and Princess Wei her enemies.

Chu Lian looked towards Royal Princess Duanjia and blinked. Her intentions were obvious, she was warning Duanjia to be careful.

A slight smile surfaced on Royal Princess Duanjia’s lips. She looked quite like Chu Lian when she smiled, and when put side-by-side, the two did indeed look like sisters.

When Princess Wei caught sight of the two, she nearly became entranced by them.

Royal Princess Duanjia stood up. “Since Imperial Concubine Wei has already said so, Duanjia has to step up.”

“Great, we’ll have an exciting polo match to witness today then. Since it’s going to be a competition, there has to be a prize. I shall use this bracelet of South Sea pearls as the prize for the victor,” Imperial Concubine Wei happily said.
