Chapter 67: Stealing Horses
The moon was shining brightly, and the night was dark.
In the stable in the backyard, Mu Huayin stood in front of a snow-white horse, quietly looking into its eyes.
Then she reached out and untied the reins from the stake, and led the horse out of the stable.
Ever since she saw the horse at the gate of the palace that day, she has never forgotten it.
She looked around, but there was no one, so she led the horse out of the courtyard, and climbed onto the horse's back.
The horse was also very obedient, and stood quietly all the time, letting her toss.
Fortunately, Mu Lesheng taught her some common sense of horse riding, so she was much more proficient this time.
She turned her head and took a deep look at the two dim lanterns hanging at the entrance of the courtyard.
Then raise the whip.
……
The forbidden army rummaged through the entire courtyard, but did not find Mu Huayin.
When Xia Yichen was about to order them all to go out to find it, a handyman suddenly hurriedly reported, "Oh no, Your Majesty, your horse is missing......
He immediately came to the stable.
In the cold moonlight, the horses were munching on the hay in the shed, but only his snow-white horse was missing.
Xia Yichen narrowed his eyes slightly.
He put his finger to his lips and let out a short whistle.
There was silence all around.
A moment later, the sound of horses' hooves came from far and near.
The sound of the horse's hooves drew nearer and nearer, until at last it stopped outside the yard, and the horse let out a long neigh.
Xia Yichen walked out of the courtyard and saw Mu Huayin hugging the horse's neck like an octopus, with a frightened expression on her face.
Her hair and clothes were disheveled by the wind, and she looked very embarrassed.
Xia Yichen said coldly, "Come down!" ”
Mu Huayin hurriedly rolled off the horse.
She almost died.
She had been tugging on the reins and riding away slowly.
But he didn't want a very distant whistle to come, and the horse began to run back with all four hooves as if it had gone mad.
She had never ridden a horse before, and her whole body was tossed and turned on the horse's back, and she was almost thrown off several times.
"You're so bold that you dare to steal my horse."
Mu Huayin hurriedly climbed in front of Xia Yichen and hugged his legs, "The concubine is wrong, the concubine doesn't know that this is the emperor's horse ......"
If she knew, she wouldn't have chosen this horse to run away.
Xia Yichen squinted his cold eyes and looked at Mu Huayin who was kneeling on the ground.
The biggest characteristic of this woman is that every time no matter what happens, she admits her mistakes very quickly.
"Where do you want to steal my horse?"
"Concubine ......" Mu Huayin said with difficulty, "The concubine just wanted to exercise riding a horse, but I didn't expect this horse to run farther and farther with the concubine, fortunately this is the emperor's horse, otherwise the concubine won't be able to come back......"
At such a time, of course, the pot must be thrown to the emperor's horse.
Xia Yichen sneered, "According to what the queen said, it's still wrong with me." ”
"Don't dare, don't dare," Mu Huayin hurriedly shook her head, "The concubines are also wrong, and the concubines shouldn't ride the emperor's horse casually." ”
Her body was still trembling slightly from the fact that she had almost been thrown off.
Xia Yichen looked at her, originally full of words that wanted to reprimand her, but now he couldn't say a word.
He leaned over and helped Mu Huayin up.
Then he walked up to the white horse, took the reins in one hand, and sat firmly on the horse's back with only a slight leap.
Mu Huayin's eyes widened.
Why can Xia Yichen be so handsome on the last horse, but she can't climb up with both hands and feet.
Xia Yichen stretched out his hand to her, "Come here." ”
Mu Huayin walked over and put her hand in his palm, "What are you doing?" ”
As soon as Xia Yichen exerted his strength slightly, Mu Huayin felt that his body was taken off the ground and landed firmly on the horse's back.
"Don't you want to ride a horse? I'll take you here. ”
