Jing Kangshan raised his eyebrows slightly and glanced at His Royal Highness the Prince of Jin.
Before I came here, I heard that in the court of Dacheng, the Crown Prince and the Prince of Jin were competing with each other.
Since the Northern Qiang delegation came to Beijing, the King of Jin seemed to have disappeared. Why is he talking here today?
The one who came on stage was not his biological son... He was the prince's legitimate son.
Jing Kangshan was not one to give in. He retorted, "When it comes to horseback riding, we Northern Qiang people have never lost."
"Tsk..." Yuan Heng sneered and rolled his eyes.
Jing Kangshan was a little annoyed.
Yuan Musheng sat aside, smiling but saying nothing.
When Yuan Cheng saw Yuan Heng's expression, he knew that he was going to lose control of his mouth again, and was about to remind him to be careful.
Yuan Zhao and Ye Huan just came in from outside, "This palace and the Saint are here to join in the fun."
As soon as Yuan Heng saw Yuan Zhao come in, he immediately shut up.
The arrogant expression he had previously had quickly changed, and he stood up with a smile and offered his seat, "Royal sister, you sit here!"
His movements were faster than Yuan Musheng's. Yuan Musheng raised his eyebrows and sat down again when he saw his mother walking towards the third uncle's seat.
Jing Kangshan was a little surprised. Why did the King of Jin have two faces?
Yuan Zhao sat in Yuan Heng's seat, turned around, took Yuan Zhizhi and held her in his arms.
Yuan Heng looked around and asked, "Where's Xiao San'er?"
Yuan Zhao glanced at him, and he hesitated, "I mean, where is Xiaoyu?"
Yuan Zhao gestured to a position outside the field.
Yuan Heng caught a glimpse of Yuan Qiyu in an empty corner, sticking out his big butt and playing in the mud with the little white tiger.
He didn't like this kind of occasion, and Yuan Zhao didn't force him to come.
Yuan Zhao felt relieved knowing that Xiaobai and Fushan were with him.
Yuan Heng glanced at the guard following her again and met his gaze.
He pushed the person away and approached Yuan Zhao, asking somewhat dissatisfiedly, "Royal sister, why is he back?"
Yuan Zhao turned to look at him and was a little surprised when he realized who he was talking about.
Huo Yan had been following her for the past few days, and even Yuan Nan'an and Yuan Xuan hadn't discovered his identity, but Yuan Heng saw through it at a glance.
She coughed lightly and said, "Something has been a little bit unsettled lately."
She was also afraid that Yuan Heng would turn around and tell Concubine Shu, which would ruin everything. She thought for a moment and wanted to emphasize the seriousness of the matter to him, "...someone wants to assassinate me, most likely someone from the diplomatic corps..."
This also told him that the target was not Concubine Shu.
Yuan Heng's face froze and he swallowed unconsciously.
Seeing his expression, Yuan Zhao thought he had frightened him and patted him, "It's okay now, let's watch the game."
Helian Shi, who was sitting opposite, seemed to have his eyes on Yuan Zhao.
Jing Kangshan on the other side also asked Yuan Zhao, "I wonder how long the princess's daughter has been practicing horseback riding and archery?"
Yuan Zhao replied with a smile, "Less than half a year."
"Hahahaha!" Jing Kangshan suddenly laughed out loud, and then said, "It's just a kid's game, so let's just watch it for fun!"
It was obvious that he looked down on Yuan Xuan and Yuan Nan'an.
The Northern Qiang are strong in horse riding and archery.
What's more, Jing Yang and Helian Yu both grew up on horseback, so how could they lose?
But in fact, Yuan Cheng, Yuan Heng, Yuan Zhao, Yuan Musheng and Huo Yan all focused their attention on the little girl in red on the racecourse.
Their expectations for Yuan Nan'an were even higher than those for Yuan Xuan.
Some arrogant ladies also sneered at Yuan Nanan at the horse farm.
"It's all right for His Royal Highness, but this little girl, why is she running around on that horse farm instead of doing her needlework and learning some girlish things?"
"It's something only the barbarians from Northern Qiang would do. She's the princess's daughter. Isn't this a disgrace to our Dacheng?"
"Have you noticed that the second daughter of the princess's family looks taller than His Royal Highness, and is almost as tall as our thirteen or fourteen-year-old daughter."
"I heard that Miss Yuan Er studies and practices martial arts with His Royal Highness the Grandson every day. Maybe she's really amazing."
"Tsk... didn't you see how well behaved she was at the banquet yesterday? After all, she's from a small place like Yangzhou, so she's not up to par."
"I'm lucky. I was born into an imperial family and can enjoy the same treatment as the emperor's grandson."
"You just want to show off. It would be so embarrassing if you lose!"
"Isn't it good to be a noble lady?"
…
The racecourse was very large, and Yuan Nan'an heard no rumors outside the racecourse.
At the end of the racecourse, there is a row of targets.
The arrows in each person's hand are marked with different colors. The rule is to shoot arrows during the horse race. All ten arrows must be shot before reaching the finish line. See who can reach the finish line fastest and hit the bull's eye the most.
A gong sounded, and "jia" was heard one after another. For a moment, it was impossible to tell who was the first to ride out.
In just a breath, there was a sound of breaking wind, and the first arrow had been shot out.
It’s Jingyang’s arrow.
At present, Sun Yang is slightly ahead and is on par with Helian Yu.
Helian Yu shot the second arrow immediately afterwards.
The two men rode horses skillfully and shot arrows from horseback in one go, which immediately caused an uproar among the crowd.
Outside the venue, Xie Wanqing accompanied Madam Xie and watched from the side.
Her eyes were fixed on a figure on horseback, and she unconsciously paid more attention to it.
Seeing this, Jing Kangshan clapped his hands and laughed, saying three times in a row: "Good!" "Good!" "Good!"
Yuan Cheng drank his tea slowly.
At this time, Yuan Xuan chased after Helian Yu and surpassed him, and shot his first arrow at the same time.
When they had walked one-third of the way, Yang Yang shot three arrows at once, which shot straight out.
