Chapter 152: Restless Horses
Half an hour later, they arrived at the paddock. There were already many heavy troops stationed in the paddock, and it seemed that there were big men present.
Mu Hanyi lowered his head and followed behind Xuan Junhan and walked towards the center of the enclosure.
I don't know how long I walked, Mu Hanyi suddenly bumped into the back of the person in front of him.
She raised her head, saw Xuan Junhan turn her head, glanced at her, then turned her head and knelt down, not forgetting to pull Mu Hanyi, and Mu Hanyi also knelt on the ground in an instant.
"Son-in-law, see father!" Xuan Junhan saluted to the yellow-robed man sitting in front of him.
Mu Hanyi was a little confused, this Xuan Junhan, just so directly, so suddenly took her to see the emperor? Not mentally prepared at all? But she is a person who has seen a big scene, and she quickly bowed her head and saluted. Learn like in the TV series of the previous life.
"Minnu, see the emperor."
The emperor frowned and stared at Mu Hanyi for a long time. Finally, a deep and powerful voice was heard.
"Old Seven, who is this?"
"Father, this distinguished guest in my house, she is very good at riding, so her son brought her to participate in this autumn hunt, and asked her father to agree." Xuan Junhan saluted the old emperor again.
The surrounding noble goddesses were of different colors, some were surprised, some were jealous, some were curious, and some were hateful.
The most surprised was Feng Wuxia, the daughter of the prime minister, she looked at Mu Hanyi in surprise, wasn't that the woman she met in the restaurant before? Unexpectedly, she was a distinguished guest in the palace of the Seventh Highness, she was a little envious in her heart, although this woman had a scar on her face, she couldn't hide her brilliance at all, and she could be so close to him, that fairy-like man, the man she had been thinking about for many years.
Ye Qinyao looked at Mu Hanyi fiercely, this ugly woman actually followed the Seventh Highness to the hunting ground, why should she! Good riding? Hmph, we'll see!
The old emperor didn't say anything more, just hummed lightly.
"Flatten. Even the emperor said that you are good at riding, so let me see it later. ”
Mu Hanyi saluted, stood up, and stepped aside. She only felt that the head was big. She always felt that she was cheated by Xuan Junhan. She only has to catch ducks on the shelves now.
Xuan Chuyin paced to Xuan Junhan's side, revealing a meaningful smile.
"Seventh brother, I didn't expect your taste to be quite unique."
Xuan Jun glanced at Xuan Chuyin lightly.
"The seventh brother also thinks so, she is quite unique."
Xuan Chuyin only felt that a punch had hit the cotton, so that he could not take it anymore. He snorted and turned to leave.
"Brother, is the third brother making trouble for you again?"
Xuan Qingru jumped forward and grabbed Xuan Junhan's arm.
Xuan Junhan looked at Xuan Qingru and scratched her nose dotingly.
"You're always a princess."
Xuan Qingru shrugged his nose and said coquettishly.
"I don't want to be that kind of delicate and weak woman, how boring."
Mu Hanyi looked at Xuan Qingru and felt a little uncomfortable.
Once upon a time, the senior brother spoiled her like this, like a brother, protecting her and tolerating her. But she hurt her brother again and again.
If she could go back, she wanted to replant the pear blossom tree, and she also wanted to watch her senior brother practice swords under the tree again.
Xuan Qingru glanced at Mu Hanyi, looked up and asked Xuan Junhan.
"Brother, I've never seen any woman you bring back to the mansion, you can't take a fancy to her, right? But her face, and her gray hair. She didn't look down on Mu Hanyi, but if she wanted to be her sister-in-law, it was still unacceptable.
Xuan Junhan rubbed Xuan Qingru's head.
"Qingru, don't talk nonsense. She's just a guest at home. ”
Mu Hanyi heard their conversation, and she had a slight change in her heart about Xuan Junhan, but fortunately he didn't admit it, nor did he say that she was the maid in his house.
She looked around, and half of the noblewomen were dressed in power suits, and it seemed that the hunt would not be too boring. She thought that these noble ladies were all delicate ladies, but she didn't expect them to also learn to ride horses and shoot arrows, this Northern Imperial Kingdom is really a magical place.
Feng Wuxia is dressed in a bright red shirt today, her long hair is tied up, and she is a little heroic in her beauty, in addition to learning piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, she also has to learn to ride and shoot since she was a child, she can win attention every year of autumn hunting, and this year is the same, she stands tall in place, with confident brilliance in her eyes. His fair face was slightly flushed with excitement.
Mu Hanyi glanced at Feng Wuxia, the last time she was in the tavern, she spoke for herself, and released kindness to her, not at all like the daughter of a high-ranking minister, Mu Hanyi couldn't help but pay more attention to her. Such women, if they had been placed in the past, would have become good sisters. It's a pity that she doesn't want to get to know too many people in this world now, she will go back sooner or later, so don't worry too much.
Feng Wuxia felt Mu Hanyi's gaze, and also turned her head to look at her, nodded and smiled at her, Mu Hanyi also nodded slightly, and then immediately looked away.
After a while, the old emperor slowly stood up, exuding majesty.
"Today's hunting, the person who comes out on top among the princes, I will reward him with 1,000 taels of gold, and in addition, there is also a South China Sea Blood East Pearl attacked by the Fei Kingdom. The one who is the best among the nobles, I will reward her with a will, and as for the content, she can draw it up by herself. ”
There was a gasping sound from the crowd, I thought that the South China Sea Blood East Pearl was precious enough, but I didn't expect that the last time the noble girl was a blank will, which couldn't help but make those noble girls want to move, and their imagination fluttered.
Half of the noblewomen are imagining that they will marry a prince they like, or a prince who will have a chance to inherit the throne in the future.
Mu Hanyi was not interested, and these rewards were not worth mentioning to her at all.
Ye Qinyao walked up to Mu Hanyi, looked at her defiantly, and rolled her eyes.
"Hmph, ugly woman, even if you can ride and shoot? You are far worse than Sister Wuxia, wait a minute, let's see how you lose face, oh no, you have no face, hahaha. ”
Ye Qinyao covered her mouth and left with a smile.
Mu Hanyi glanced at her lightly, and she couldn't stir up any waves in her heart at all. What's more, her rank is too low compared to Mu Jingyue and Jian Yuxian.
Mu Hanyi picked a white horse, and she reached out to touch the horse's mane, but the horse snorted and stamped its front hooves to avoid it. She was a little embarrassed, this broken horse was not well-behaved at all, it was still her Qiuhua who was well-behaved, but her Qiuhua was brought into the space by her, and now the space can't enter, and I don't know what happened to Qiuhua.
The hunt began in earnest, and the princes rode out on horseback.
Xuan Junhan didn't leave in a hurry, and waited for Mu Hanyi on horseback.
But at this time, Mu Hanyi was a little embarrassed, the horse did not cooperate at all, did not let her go up, no matter how she appeased, the horse neighed anxiously.
Feng Wuxia turned over and got on the horse, as soon as she raised the whip, the horse galloped out, and her back was very free.
Ye Qinyao and the two nobles looked at her with disdain and sneered at her.
"Tut-tut, how good I should be, I can't even get on the horse, I'm really laughing to death."
"Yes, at this level, you can even get the blue eyes of the Seventh Highness?"
"It's better to go back as soon as possible, lose your people, and don't be accused of bullying the king when the time comes."
The harsh words reached Mu Hanyi's ears, she actually didn't care, but before Xuan Junhan boasted to everyone, saying that she was good at riding, if her performance was too poor, I was afraid that Xuan Junhan would also be faceless.
She glanced at Ye Qinyao and the ladies coldly, and a faint smile suddenly appeared on the corner of her mouth. The ladies who watched it were shocked for no reason.
Mu Hanyi faced the horse and secretly used the beast control technique. This was originally used on spirit pets, but I didn't expect it to be used on ordinary horses one day.
Sure enough, the horse stopped being anxious in an instant, and became obedient, Mu Hanyi touched the horse's mane, and sat on the horse as soon as he turned over.
"Drive!" Mu Hanyi patted the horse gently, and the horse ran out obediently. Xuan Junhan also hurriedly followed.
Ye Qinyao looked shocked, how could this be possible? She had obviously given the horse a drug to make it excited, and it was impossible for anyone to control it, so why did she make the horse obedient so easily? She gritted her teeth and rode out into the forest.
