Princess Hui'an's eyelashes trembled, and she said seriously, "I'm wrong, I'm not giving it to you, I'm giving it to you as a reward!"
She is a princess, how can she just give things to others casually?
This is her grace!
"This princess has many more good things than Jingning! You will know later!"
As they were talking, Princess Jingning came over with peach branches.
Taozhi bowed to Princess Hui'an, then bowed and greeted Su Xiaoxiao.
Princess Hui'an rolled her eyes.
Su Xiaoxiao nodded slightly, looked at Princess Jingning and said, "I didn't see you during the last exam."
Princess Jingning said, "My mother is not feeling well, so I slept late. Has the Empress Dowager allowed you to come back for class?"
In fact, the Queen Mother never stopped her from attending classes. She took the opportunity to skip classes, but probably the Queen Mother found out, so she sent her back to the palace to study.
"The Queen Mother asked me to come." Su Xiaoxiao said.
Princess Jingning said softly, "I went to visit the Royal Grandmother last night. She has recovered well. Thank you for your hard work during this period."
Princess Hui'an said unhappily, "If you want me to say it!"
The little girl is her follower now, can Jingning be more sensible?
Princess Jingning didn't bother to pay attention to this stupid sister, and directly took Su Xiaoxiao's hand to go choose a horse.
Princess Hui'an was furious and stared at the two people holding hands: "You, you, you, what are you doing!"
Princess Jingning looked puzzled: "Choosing horses, why, you want to follow?"
Princess Hui'an put her hands on her hips and said, "She has a horse!"
Princess Jingning looked at Su Xiaoxiao and realized that she was holding a horse in her hand. Her sleeves had blocked it just now, so she thought the horse belonged to Hui'an.
"This is not the horse from Gongxue." said Princess Jingning.
Princess Hui'an folded her arms and said with great pride, "It's a big-food horse, a reward from me!"
Princess Jingning's eyes fell on Su Xiaoxiao's face: "Do you want it?"
Princess Hui'an said fiercely: "She dares not to?!"
The two looked at Su Xiaoxiao at the same time.
Su Xiaoxiao felt her scalp tingling: Why does it feel like there’s a fire in the backyard again…
Wei Ting rode over on his horse and rescued Su Xiaoxiao from the fire and water in time.
"Everyone choose your horses and prepare for the test."
The first test is on horseback riding.
There are a total of twenty-three students in the Palace School. Lin Ruyue was expelled, Qin Yanran was at home preparing for her wedding and did not come, and Hu Biyun was implicated and expelled. Now there are exactly twenty students.
Two people in a group, decided by drawing lots.
The riding and archery instructor will comprehensively evaluate the results based on pre-test preparation, riding posture, speed, etc., and the best one will be awarded A.
Wei Ting was a very strict substitute teacher, and no one had ever gotten an A in his class.
Wei Ting demonstrated it first, circling the field once, then running straight to the other side, having to cross three obstacles on the way.
Princess Jingning was in the first group, and Leng Zhiruo also drew the first group.
Leng Zhiruo also used her own horse. Princess Jingning originally wanted to use her own horse, but she glanced at Princess Hui'an and asked the palace servants to bring her Arabian horse over.
Leng Zhiruo was the daughter of a general. Her riding skills were outstanding and she eventually got into the B-level middle school.
Princess Jingning's performance was quite amazing. Everyone didn't have high expectations of her and thought that she would be beaten to pieces when facing Leng Zhiruo.
Unexpectedly, she got a B grade.
"She has a good horse," whispered a daughter.
"She's a princess, so of course her horse is good."
Su Xiaoxiao didn't say anything.
She could see that Princess Jingning's horse was better than Leng Zhiruo's horse, but the reason why Princess Jingning could fight Leng Zhiruo to a draw was definitely not just because of the blessing of the Ferghana horse.
Leng Zhiruo was a little anxious and lost control of her movements when turning. Although she adjusted herself in time, she still lost points.
In comparison, Princess Jingning took steady steps, and it was obvious that her mentality was extremely good.
The second group is Miss Wang and Lu Ying.
Miss Wang got C, while Lu Ying only got D.
It was Princess Hui'an's turn, and with her was a daughter of a wealthy family named Zheng.
Princess Hui'an was a little mediocre at studying, but her riding skills were solid, as Xiao Chonghua taught her personally, and she got a B grade.
The student with the best performance at the moment is Jingning, who is ranked in Grade B.
Next is Leng Zhiruo's Class B Middle and Princess Hui'an's Class B Lower.
The last group is Su Xiaoxiao and Princess Lingxi.
Originally, Princess Lingxi drew the third-to-last group, so she asked someone to replace her.
Su Xiaoxiao doesn't care.
Guo Lingxi looked at Su Xiaoxiao's mount coldly: "This is the horse my elder brother gave to Princess Hui'an. What qualifications do you have to ride it?"
Su Xiaoxiao smiled faintly: "I just rode it. If you don't accept it, come and hit me."
Guo Lingxi was so angry that he gritted his teeth.
"Don't think you can beat me just because you ride the same horse as me! I started riding when I was seven, and I've ridden more horses than you've walked! It's just right for you to use this horse, so that people won't think I won unfairly!"
Wouldn't it be more helpful to show your strength by crushing others with horses of the same breed?
Wei Ting raised his hand, and the young eunuch beside him beat the gongs and drums.
After checking the horses and saddles, the two men climbed on them and then rushed out like an arrow.
Su Xiaoxiao didn't study much in the palace, and attended even fewer riding and archery classes. In everyone's impression, her riding skills were average and her archery skills were not amazing.
If she faced Princess Lingxi, she would most likely be turned into ashes in seconds.
But who made her compete with Princess Lingxi for Wei Ting, and who made her whip Princess Lingxi?
It would be strange if Princess Lingxi could swallow this.
"It's over, it's over, it's over." Princess Hui'an looked at Guo Lingxi who was leading the way, and became very distressed and worried about her little follower.
"Guo Lingxi, you bastard, if you have the guts, compete with me! What's the point of bullying a girl who has never learned how to ride a horse?"
Su Xiaoxiao grew up in the countryside. When she first took riding lessons, she didn't even know how to choose a horse.
Princess Hui'an covered her eyes.
I don’t dare to watch it anymore, I don’t dare to watch it anymore, my little follower is going to lose!
The first fence was in sight.
Guo Lingxi clamped his legs around the horse's belly, lifted the reins, and leaped over it neatly! Boom! The sound of horse hooves hitting the ground.
But it's not hers.
But——
Guo Lingxi only felt his eyes flicker and a black shadow flashed by.
Impossible! I had clearly left her far behind, how did she catch up? "Ah - look! It's Miss Su's horse!" Lu Ying exclaimed.
At the first fence, Su Xiaoxiao surpassed Guo Lingxi and was ahead by half a horse's length.
At the second fence, Su Xiaoxiao was leading by a horse's length.
The third fence is the highest one. Many horses become frightened when they reach it. They either slow down on the spot or go around it.
Su Xiaoxiao leaped up high with all her might. At that moment, the scene seemed to be frozen.
"Jump, jump so high..." Lu Ying stuttered.
The three students who got B just now all jumped over all the fences, but no one's horse could jump to the height of Su Xiaoxiao and her mount.
Lu Hui said hesitantly, "Master Wei seemed to have jumped this high just now... Oh my God... Did Miss Su really learn to ride a horse after coming to the capital..."
One man and one horse, landing bravely.
Her robe was blown up by the cold wind and fluttered on the horse's back.
Her eyes were focused and determined, and she exuded endless heroic spirit.
Everyone felt their blood boiling! Wei Ting watched her from a distance, watching her running towards him, and she was the only one left in his eyes.
Guo Lingxi's condition was affected, and the horse became nervous when crossing the third fence.
She only got a C in the end.
And Su Xiaoxiao's performance was almost perfect, and she deserved to be ranked first! (End of this chapter)
