As the sound of horses' hooves got closer and closer, just around the corner, a tall black thoroughbred appeared in their field of vision. Marie-Henry Bell immediately recognized it as the thoroughbred he had just seen at the train station.

Even when going around the bend, the horse was not slow, and as soon as it came out of the bend, the horse immediately began to accelerate, and when he opened his eyes, it was like a black lightning bolt in front of the obstacle. Then, without even the control of the thin rider on the horse, the horse jumped up at once, and easily crossed the high obstacle, as if it were just a small dirt scumbag.

In the blink of an eye, the horse and the thin knight on the horse were running away.

Marie-Henry Bell looked at the dark horse and the thin knight on the horse, and exclaimed, "What a good horse! And the knight, his skill in controlling the horse, when crossing obstacles, the combination of man and horse is very good! I think he should be the favourite. ”

"Him?" The staff member said, "No, sir, you are mistaken, it is not him, but her." It was a lady. ”

"A lady?" Marie-Henry Bell was surprised, "Could it be a foreign princess?" Like Siniska in ancient Greece? ”

"A foreign princess?" The staff raised their eyebrows and said, "What foreign country can have such a princess?" ”

Marie-Henri Bell was slightly stunned for a moment, remembering the way the knight had just passed by when she sat on the horse—she was obviously using a men's saddle, and she was also riding in a men's position. In this era, any princess of a European royal family, even if she was good at equestrianism, must be good at riding with women's saddles - no royal family would allow a princess to use men's saddles. Because they all felt that it would destroy the shape of the woman's legs, and besides, the appearance of straddle sitting was too unsightly in the eyes of those royal families, and it was full of unchastity. Although the so-called chastity is simply a joke in today's European upper class aristocracy, the basic appearance still has to be pretended. Even the girls of the Moulin Rouge tend to make a cold and noble appearance, "which can be seen from a distance and cannot be blasphemed".

"Ah, this lady, is it ...... Is it 'Chrissy'? Marie-Henri Bell asked.

"Chrissy" is the pen name used by Polina when she publishes articles in newspapers and magazines, which is basically known to all French literary and artistic youth. And Polina is a very newsworthy figure, basically she and one of her brothers are the focus of newspapers such as The Sun. It was easy to get the newspaper out of business for a direct report on Miss Polina Bonaparte, (Napoleon was worried that his mother would accidentally see the news), so everyone used to use the name "Chrissy" instead of "Polina" when reporting news related to her. So in this way, not only literary and artistic youths, but even those old-school conservatives know who "Chrissy" is.

It is also interesting to note the attitude of the aristocratic, serious old-fashioned conservatives towards the three main newspapers of Paris. With the exception of a very few of them, they basically do not read Scientific Pravda, half of them are willing to read Kommersant, and almost all of them read The Sun, which is considered to be the most of the most interesting newspapers.

"Yes, it's Ms. Chrissy." The staff member nodded, "It is said that she is the only female athlete in this Olympics." ”

"Miss Chrissy's equestrian skills are really, really, really!" Mari-Henri Bell exclaimed, "Even a man, there are few who can compare with her." You see when she gets over this obstacle, it's so smooth that it's like silk. ”

The fact that Polina was married was not kept secret, and almost all the lace tabloids in France reported on it. But the French literary youth still prefer to call her "Miss Chrissy" rather than "Miss Chrissy", let alone "Madame Beldon".

"Ms. Chrissy has been training here for more than a month...... But her skills are really good. The staff member replied.

"More than a month of training? How much does it cost? Marie-Henry Bell couldn't help but think, "If it weren't for her 'Chris Dress' being so profitable, the average person would be able to train like this." However, the results of this training are really good, and it seems that Miss Chrissy may indeed become the first female champion in the history of the modern Olympic Games. ”

With that in mind, Marie-Henri Bell continued to follow the staff member forward. At this time, the sound of horses' hooves was heard behind him.

"Another big guy training here? I really shouldn't be participating in equestrian competitions, this kind of competition is just a game for big guys. Marie-Henri Bell turned his head and looked around the corner.

A man, riding a grey Arabian horse, reluctantly turned the bend towards the obstacle. However, in the face of the obstacles, the horse suddenly stopped.

The man on the horse was caught off guard, and a somersault flipped off the horse, and his butt landed on the runway, and then he let out a cry like killing a pig.

At this time, from a small house not far away, several people rushed out at once, and one of them was holding a pair of rolled up stretchers in his hands. Apparently these people are in charge of this kind of thing.

"Do you need our help?" Marie-Henry Bell asked, in the past, when he was in the cavalry company, during training, it was inevitable that some unlucky people fell off their horses. So, Mari-Henri Bell can really help, not go up and help.

"No, no, we have professional personnel. If you don't have a doctor's qualification, you can go up and help out, and if something happens, it will be very troublesome. The staff member advised.

Marie-Henri Bell knew he had a point, plus those people had already run up. He stopped stepping forward and said to the staff member next to him, "You know what? Actually, I owe a good thank you to that gentleman. ”

"Why? Do you know this gentleman? The staff asked.

"No, of course I don't know him." Marie-Henri Bell replied, "Where did I have the opportunity to meet such a rich man?" But he did give me a huge help just now – he helped me regain the confidence I needed to compete. ”
