Someone in the crowd spoke up, and everyone burst into laughter again.

It's unclear whether they're laughing at Wei Jing or at the comical behavior of Young Master Wen just now.

Hearing their laughter, Jiang Mingwei felt inexplicably annoyed. She snorted and muttered under her breath, "Laughing, what's so funny? I'll show you something later!"

Although she was sometimes quite afraid of Wei Jing, fearing he might kill her, Jiang Mingwei still had confidence in Wei Jing's martial arts skills.

If it were him, he would definitely be able to defeat Chase Wind!

Jiang Mingwei spoke very softly, thinking no one would hear her, but unexpectedly, it all reached the ears of the woman beside her. She turned her head slightly, her eyes full of smiles.

"It seems Lady Wei has great confidence in your uncle? Very well, let me see just how outstanding this most valiant and skilled young general of Nan Jing truly is. If he can truly tame Zhui Feng today, I will reward him further!"

Her voice was soft, only Jiang Mingwei could hear it. Her face was filled with disappointment. She hadn't expected that the big boss would actually hear her, and not only was she not angry, but she even wanted to give her another reward.

Good heavens, how much does the imperial court value Wei Jing?!

However, the thought that the higher Wei Jing is praised now, the more tragic his fall will be later, filled Jiang Mingwei with regret...

She knew Wei Jing was a good person, just too stubborn. As long as he didn't kill her, Jiang Mingwei really didn't mind finding a way to help him.

But at this moment, Jiang Mingwei only wanted to know if Wei Jing's abilities were sufficient to tame Zhui Feng.

He then gave the big boss an awkward smile and focused his attention back on the arena...

When Wei Jing reached out to stroke Zhui Feng, it became furious, hissing and raising its front hooves high, trying to knock him to the ground!

But Wei Jing did not back down, and looked at it coldly.

Suddenly, he unleashed his inner strength through his hands.

The moment it landed on the horse's head, Zhui Feng felt immense pressure. He was momentarily stunned, realizing that the human in front of him was threatening him.

But it is proud by nature, so how could it be coerced by anyone?

He became even more enraged, jumping wildly. The stable boy next to him was almost knocked to the ground, his face showing a pained expression. He couldn't help but plead with Wei Jing.

"General Wei, you...you shouldn't provoke Zhuifeng anymore. It's too fierce. If it continues like this, the servants won't be able to hold it back. Why don't you try riding it?"

"No rush, please hang in there a little longer."

Wei Jing spoke in a deep voice, continuing to apply his inner force continuously.

He didn't start off extremely forceful; rather, he took it slow, like boiling a frog in lukewarm water...

In the end, the intense pressure almost made Zhui Feng unable to lift his head, and the disdain and disgust in his eyes also decreased significantly.

Realizing that the human before him seemed different from the one he had just tried to conquer.

But he still refused to admit defeat!

The struggle was much less intense than before, and his eyes showed less arrogance and more defiance.

Seizing the opportunity, Wei Jing immediately mounted the horse, braced himself with his legs, took the reins from the stable boy, and held them firmly in his hand.

Zhui Feng seemed to have gone mad, but he sat there motionless.

In order to shake off this terrifying human, Zhuifeng immediately started running wildly in the horse farm, running lap after lap at an incredible speed!

The wind felt like sharp knives on his face, forcing Wei Jing to bend slightly to maintain his balance.

But no matter what Zhuifeng did, it couldn't shake him off; it could still feel the man on its body putting pressure on it.

Finally, Wei Jing stopped hesitating and poured all his internal energy into him!

At that moment, Zhui Feng immediately cried out in panic, his voice filled with fear.

It stopped struggling and stood obediently in place, letting Wei Jing ride on its back. Even though its tail was still wagging, indicating that it was not happy, it had already submitted for the time being and could be trained in the future.

According to the rules of the Great ***, one must sit on a horse for the duration of an incense stick burning.

The eunuch beside him whispered a reminder—

"Your Majesty, General Wei has been on Zhui Feng's back for more than two incense sticks' worth of time, and it will be the third incense stick's worth soon!"

Everyone then realized what was happening, and even the big sister, still feeling a bit unsatisfied, came back to her senses.

Just now, she was completely immersed in Wei Jing's conquest of Zhui Feng, and not only her, but everyone present was the same.

Everyone held their breath, momentarily forgetting their discussion. Outside the fence, all was silent, completely absorbed in his struggle with Zhui Feng.

Now, the outcome is finally decided!

"Excellent, that's wonderful! General Wei is truly brave and has shown me the skills that our Nan Jing soldiers should have!"

The eldest sister was overjoyed and immediately led the applause. Everyone else followed suit. Wei Jing jumped off Zhui Feng's back and bowed respectfully to the eldest sister.

"***You flatter me. I am merely fortunate to have some experience in horsemanship on the battlefield and to have the good fortune to ride the wind."

He was not arrogant or complacent; his attitude was humble and unassuming, and there was not a trace of pride on his face.

The Great *** admired it even more.

They really are family; they're just like Jiang Mingwei—never fighting or vying for anything, which is great.

"In any case, everyone present can see clearly that you are the only one who has truly mastered the Wind Chaser today. I hereby bestow this horse upon you, hoping it will always be by your side and at your service. I wish you continued success and achievements!"

True to her word, the Empress Dowager quickly decided to gift the Chasing Wind to Wei Jing, who naturally accepted it gladly and thanked her profusely.

Exclamations of admiration rippled through the surrounding crowd, while many others shook their heads and sighed, their eyes filled with regret. They had all come here today to chase the wind, but alas, they were all destined to miss each other!

If you can't control it, isn't keeping it at home just a nuisance?

Now that Wei Jing has obtained it, everyone is naturally envious and jealous, but once the princess speaks, all they can do is accept it.

"Alright, that concludes the main attraction. After Zhui Feng leads them back, he will release a herd of docile horses for you to ride freely."

"There's also polo over there. Anyone who wants to play can register with Eunuch Lu. Whoever wins will also receive a prize!"

The big boss introduced himself to everyone.

The crowd nodded and dispersed, but many of them walked towards Wei Jing.

Among them were noble families, as well as some women who came forward led by their elder brothers or male relatives. They all looked shy, but when they looked up at Wei Jing, their eyes were full of admiration and adoration.

Some, without a man to guide them, could only stand not far away and secretly watch Wei Jing.

At this moment, he had become the most dazzling presence in the garden, and no one could take their eyes off him. He truly lived up to what Jiang Mingwei had said in the carriage: he would surely charm many noble ladies!

But Wei Jing always seemed indifferent towards them, which made Jiang Mingwei anxious...
