Picked Up A Husband For Farming - Chapter 343
343 Killing His Son
Although Qiao Yanhui didn’t say anything, Xu Qing believed him, so she trusted that Yuan’er would be fine. Then, she looked at the prey in front of everyone. As far as the eye could see, Qiao Yanhui had the most prey and they were also the largest. This made Xu Qing feel proud.
In contrast, the Fourth Prince only had half a hare in front of him. Only hunting half a prey was practically unheard of!
The Fourth Prince also looked embarrassed. After all, he was considered an elder, but he lost to the younger generation, so he definitely felt terrible. However, for some reason, the prey he set his sights on were either shot by other people first or snatched away by larger wild beasts. When this rabbit was bitten by a tiger, he was so angry that he wanted to chase after it, but he didn’t have the courage to.
Qiao Yanhui looked at the Fourth Prince and the Fourth Consort coldly. He had also received the news of what had happened here, so he naturally wouldn’t let the Fourth Prince off easily. Therefore, he used some tricks on the hunting ground, but this wasn’t the end.
As everyone jumped down from the horse in a carefree manner, only Ao Heng held onto the reins while trembling. After the guard captain at the side helped him down, he stood in front of everyone.
!!
When everyone saw Ao Heng’s sickly condition, some people began to conspire. Could it be that Ao Heng couldn’t make it anymore? In that case, wasn’t it time to choose which side to stand on?
If Ao Heng knew what these people were thinking, he would have been enraged. He wasn’t dead yet, but these people were already thinking about how to curry favor with the next emperor. At this moment, Ao Heng finally stabilized his breathing and looked at the prey in front of everyone. He nodded in satisfaction along the way, but when he saw the rabbit in front of the Fourth Prince, his expression darkened. “Fourth Brother, what’s going on?”
“Brother… I don’t know what’s wrong with me today, but I didn’t encounter any prey along the way. It wasn’t easy for me to encounter a wild rabbit, but half of it was snatched by a tiger. If I hadn’t arrived in time, the other half of it would have been gone as well!” The fourth prince lowered his head in embarrassment. There were so many people, so he felt very embarrassed.
Ao Heng rolled his eyes. Everyone had hunted prey, but he didn’t encounter any? He simply wasn’t capable enough, yet he was still finding excuses.
“Fourth Brother, although you’re not young anymore, your hunting skills can’t be too lousy. I think you’re getting lazier and lazier. After this hunt, go back and train!” Ao Heng shouted coldly.
The Fourth Prince felt a little aggrieved and said dejectedly, “Yes, Brother.”
Ao Heng looked at the Fourth Prince resentfully. He was afraid of his powerful sons, so he wanted to start with his younger brothers so that he could at least balance the situation, but his younger brothers were so useless, No wonder they couldn’t compete with him back then. Thinking about how Qiao Yanhui and Ao Jie were on the same side now, he felt even more troubled. He didn’t have any pawn that could restrain Qiao Yanhui.
This exasperated Ao Heng. The Eldest Prince and the Second Prince were the best candidates. Although they were also stupid, at least they could cause some trouble for Qiao Yanhui and make things easier for him. Unfortunately, those two fools actually dared to covet his throne! They deserved to die.
Ao Heng walked over to his fifth and sixth sons. Although their preys were a little small, at least there were a lot of prey.
The Fifth Prince’s martial strength wasn’t bad, but he was dim-witted and was a boor. As for the Sixth Prince, he was smart, but not that smart. He was too cowardly and extremely afraid of death.
Therefore, when Ao Heng arrived in front of them, he still had an impatient expression.
When he walked in front of Ao Jie and saw the large pile of prey, Ao Heng had an indescribable feeling in his heart. In fact, Ao Jie was a very good crown prince, but Ao Jie’s shortcoming was that he was on the same side as Qiao Yanhui! How could he, the emperor, be at ease when a crown prince had a powerful military faction? Therefore, he couldn’t be blamed for wanting to get rid of Qiao Yanhui and Ao Jie. If their plan didn’t make Qiao Yanhui and Ao Jie fall out this time, then he would replace the crown prince.
Some of his concubines were pregnant again. Now that he had taken immortality medicine, he wasn’t afraid that he wouldn’t be able to nurture a better crown prince. When he thought of this, ruthlessness flashed in Ao Heng’s eyes.
However, before Ao Heng could retract his gaze, Ao Jie saw it and sneered. In his father’s eyes, his sons had always been pawns. When he needed them, he would toy with them. When he didn’t need them anymore, he would destroy them.
After Ao Heng praised him indifferently, Ao Jie responded coldly. They were like strangers, even worse than strangers. It was ridiculous that biological father and son could come to this point.
Ao Heng continued to walk forward and check the prey along the way. However, in the next moment, Ao Heng almost fainted from anger.
