The tip of the knife nailed the venomous snake heavily to the ground, and also to the hem of the Empress Dowager's skirt, where she was sitting on the ground.

The sudden sound and tug startled the Empress Dowager. She turned her head to look at the hem of her skirt and trembled with fear! She gasped and let out a low cry.

The palace maid who was picking peach blossoms not far away hurriedly turned around and walked over.

When they saw the poisonous snake nailed to the Empress Dowager's skirt, they screamed in fear.

"Protect the emperor! Protect the emperor!"

"Protect the Queen Mother!"

Several people shouted for protection, but facing a poisonous snake, they were completely helpless and panicked, and the scene was in chaos.

Su Xiaoxiao walked over calmly.

"Who is it?!" an eunuch asked sternly.

Su Xiaoxiao glanced at him and came in front of the Empress Dowager.

The eunuch took out an unripe peach from the flower basket and pointed it at Su Xiaoxiao fiercely: "Get out of the way!"

Su Xiaoxiao looked at the unintimidating little peach fruit, shook her head, squatted down, drew out her dagger, and caught the poisonous snake.

"Can I trouble you to borrow a medicine bottle?" she asked with her head tilted.

The Empress Dowager looked at her in a daze and nodded.

When the eunuch saw that his master had agreed, he happened to have an empty bottle on him, so he took it out.

He was extremely careful when he handed it to Su Xiaoshi.

"Is it, is it dead?" he asked stutteringly.

Su Xiaoxiao glanced at the snake in her hand and said, "Oh, no, it's still breathing."

"Ouch!" The eunuch jumped back in fright.

Su Xiaoxiao killed the poisonous snake, took out the snake gall and put it into a medicine bottle.

The whole process was smooth and seamless, without any change in expression, which left the palace people dumbfounded.

"You... who are you?"

The eunuch who had been frightened to death just now came to his senses and courageously asked Su Xiaoxiao.

Su Xiaoxiao said: "Oh, I am a student of the Palace Academy. I just had lunch with Princess Jingning in the pavilion over there."

Clearly explaining one's identity and the reason for entering the harem can save one from unnecessary trouble to a great extent.

When they heard that she was with Princess Jingning, no one doubted that she was the one who released the snake.

In other words, even if he had doubts in his heart, he couldn't detain her and question her further.

Su Xiaoxiao handed the snake's body forward: "Snake meat is very nutritious, do you want some?"

The palace servants shook their heads like they were rolling dice!

The Empress Dowager also shook her head.

Su Xiaoxiao said: "Then I'll take it away."

The palace maids nodded like chicks pecking at rice, and said, "Take it away quickly! " Su Xiaoxiao took two steps, then paused, tilted her head and asked the Empress Dowager, "It can be considered as physical evidence. Are you sure you don't want it?"

The Queen Mother understood what she meant and shook her head again: "No need. There are many bushes here, which are moist and dense. It's not surprising that there are poisonous snakes."

Su Xiaoxiao found it very strange because the poisonous snake just now went straight to the Empress Dowager.

"You can take it away." The Queen Mother said to Su Xiaoxiao, "Thank you very much today. What is your name?"

"Su Xiaoxiao."

Su Xiaoxiao accidentally revealed her real name.

It was all because the Empress Dowager's eyes and eyebrows were too similar to Ms. Li's, causing her to forget her current identity for a moment.

"My full name is Su Daya," she added.

The palace maid twitched her lips. The big name is Da and the nickname is Xiao. Your family is really willful in naming.

Su Xiaoxiao left.

She turned around and glanced at the Empress Dowager who was surrounded by palace servants.

Her expression revealed a hint of sadness and loneliness.

Suddenly I felt that the Empress Dowager was also quite pitiful.

…

There is a horse riding and archery class in the afternoon.

After the accident the day before, many more guards and palace masters were dispatched to the ranch, and the horses were no longer chosen by the people themselves. They could ride whatever horse they were assigned, and the two princesses were no exception.

In addition, since the last master was dismissed by Xiao Chonghua, everyone is guessing who the master will be this time.

When the new master arrived at the racecourse at a speed far superior to his opponent, everyone present was stunned.

The man was dressed in dark blue tights, had a stern face, an upright posture, and an imposing manner. He had a stunning face, and between his brows there was a hint of arrogance that looked down on the world.

If it’s not Wei Ting, then who else could it be?

Su Xiaoxiao: "Huh?"

Princess Hui'an and Princess Lingxi couldn't take their eyes off.

The two were very excited.

"Brother Ting!"

Princess Hui'an jumped on her horse and immediately galloped towards Wei Ting.

Princess Lingxi was not willing to be outdone, so she raised her whip and chased after him.

Su Xiaoxiao narrowed her eyes.

Princess Jingning snorted disdainfully.

The only woman in the capital who was indifferent to Wei Ting's beauty was probably Princess Jingning.

Many of the rich girls at the scene also blushed slightly.

Su Xiaoxiao looked at everyone with an indescribable look.

Can you guys be more loyal? You were crazy about Su Mo two days ago, and now you're attracted to Wei Ting? However, who dares to compete with the princess or the county lord?

They just dare to feast their eyes.

By the way, why did Wei Ting come here? Could he really be their new horse riding and archery teacher?

Wasn't this guy confined by the emperor for a month? It's only been a few days, and the emperor has released him?

Emperor Jingxuan didn't want to let him go either, but Wei Ting had no choice but to ask Eunuch Yu to bring an emotional handwritten letter to the emperor.

In the letter, Wei Ting deeply reflected on his behavior of injuring Qin Jiang. As a minister, he should share the worries of His Majesty. He heard that Gong Xuegang dismissed a riding and archery teacher.

He is willing to guarantee the Wei family's century-old reputation and recommend a riding and archery genius who is more powerful than Qin Canglan to Your Majesty.

Emperor Jingxuan approved.

When Emperor Jingxuan saw Wei Ting appearing in front of him, he was completely upset! You really... can you still have some shame? The king is not joking, Emperor Jingxuan cannot change his orders every day and slap himself in the face.

So this is the scene before our eyes.

Princess Hui'an and Princess Lingxi did not have the chance to rush to Wei Ting, as they were stopped by the palace masters who followed closely.

Emperor Jingxuan issued an order prohibiting private horse racing.

The two returned to the crowd in frustration.

Wei Ting rode his horse up to the crowd and stopped in front of Su Xiaoxiao intentionally or unintentionally.

His eyes were not on Su Xiaoxiao, and everyone thought he had just chosen a seat at random.

Wei Ting is not a nobleman who values ​​reputation. He is notoriously bad-tempered and doesn't even give face to the princess, let alone the daughters of wealthy families.

As soon as he commanded them to mount their horses, the daughters got on the horses obediently.

Su Xiaoxiao leisurely checked the saddle.

Lin Ruyue chuckled: "Miss Su, Master Wei asked you to get on the horse, are you deaf and didn't hear it?"

As soon as she finished speaking, she discovered that Leng Zhiruo on the side had not mounted the horse either.

Wei Ting rode on a tall horse and said with dignity: "You didn't check the saddle before getting on the horse. Except for Miss Su and Miss Leng, all the others failed. You have to stand in horse stance for half an hour!"

Everyone: “……!!”

Princess Hui'an called out tenderly, "Brother Ting~"

Wei Ting: "Add a quarter of an hour."

Princess Hui'an: "..."

Princess Lingxi smiled complacently, looked at Wei Ting and said, "Cousin!"

Wei Ting: "Add half an hour."

Princess Lingxi: “…” ——Wei Ting is a very serious teacher in class.

Su Xiaoxiao is not a very serious student.

When she rode past Wei Ting, she called out softly, "Brother Ting~"

Wei Ting trembled and almost fell off the horse! The young ladies finished their horse stance one after another and came to class.

Looking at Master Wei, who was riding on horseback, so heroic, majestic and aloof, and made everyone fear him.

Su Xiaoxiao felt inexplicably itchy in her heart.

Do these people know how much he cares for others in private? Of course... he is a little short-sighted.

Speaking of mouth, Su Xiaoxiao's thoughts turned, and she remembered what he said to her before he left the night before.

Does today count as the next time?

Su Xiaoxiao subconsciously touched her lips.

Princess Jingning rode her horse to a stop beside her and asked, "What's wrong with your mouth?"

"Nothing." Su Xiaoxiao put down her hand.

Wei Ting's horse riding and archery classes are genuine. He does not treat his students like pampered princesses or rich girls. Women will not be treated specially on the battlefield. There is no distinction between men and women under the butcher's knife.

At first, Princess Hui'an thought it was great that Wei Ting came to teach them riding and archery, so that she could see Wei Ting every day.

But now she wished Wei Ting had never been here.

Qin Yanran has been riding horses since she was a child. To be honest, even she felt the difficulty. However, when she looked at Su Xiaoxiao not far away, she found that the other person's breath was not disordered at all.

That’s right, she didn’t do the horse stance, so how tiring could it be to sit on a horse?

If I were the same as her, my breath would definitely be steadier than hers.

Leng Zhiruo on the side was breathing slightly.

She raised her sleeve to wipe the sweat off her face, and looked at Su Xiaoxiao practicing over and over again on the horse field, with a hint of confusion in her eyes.

Finally, the get out of class was over. The girls all felt sore in their backs and waists, and felt like their legs, arms and buttocks did not belong to them.

Because I was delayed for some time due to the punishment of doing horse stance, I only practiced horse riding and did not learn archery.

Qin Yanran felt that she didn't need to learn, and also felt that she had lost face in front of Su Xiaoxiao today, so she wanted to make it up through archery.

She drew her bow and shot cleanly at the rake, hitting the red bull's eye.

The corners of her lips curled up.

The young ladies standing by were stunned.

Miss Qin is not a human, right? After being tortured by Master Wei for an entire afternoon, she still has the strength to shoot arrows? And she shoots so accurately! Miss Qin smiled and looked at Su Xiaoxiao: "You probably haven't shot arrows in the countryside, right? Do you want me to teach you?"

Wei Ting rode over calmly and said, "Miss Qin is so capable that she dares to teach my students."

"Master Wei." Qin Yanran quickly turned around and performed the student's salute.

Wei Ting pulled out a feathered arrow from the quiver held by a palace servant, and gently flicked the feathers on the tail of the arrow with his slender jade-like fingertips.

Then, without even looking at the target on the side, he just casually swung his hand.

With a whoosh, the arrow broke through the air and hit Qin Yanran's arrow squarely, splitting it in half from the tail and firmly stabbing it in the center of the bull's eye.

Qin Yanran's mind buzzed.

The rest of the people got goosebumps.

No bow, just shooting with bare hands...

How much power does this require, and how accurate is the aim? Wei Ting... It's too scary.

Qin Yanran was showing off her skills in front of him, which was simply a humiliation! Did Wei Ting shoot Qin Yanran's arrow? No, he shot Qin Yanran's face! 　Regarding the problem of not being able to vote for the monthly ticket, I have reported it to the editor and customer service. Let's see next month.
