Chapter 800 I want the emperor’s favor tonight!
The two grown men were stunned for a moment.
In the dim light, a proud, even brilliant smile appeared on Feng Shu's bright face.
She held the flagpole with one hand and bowed to both of them.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, thank you, Your Majesty, for giving way!"
After saying that, he grabbed the reins, turned the horse's head, and galloped away.
Zhu Feng and Arslan looked at each other.
The two men didn't expect it, or rather, they completely forgot about this woman. They just thought they were fighting with each other, but they didn't expect that when their fight became most intense, Feng Shu would suddenly appear and pull out the flagpole!
this--
This time, without waiting for them to think any more, especially since the sound of Feng Shu's horse hooves had quickly disappeared in the birch forest, the two of them immediately grabbed the reins, spurred their horses into a gallop, and rushed forward.

At this time, torches had been lit on the other side of the tent.
The emperor and King Nanli have been in the birch forest for so long, and there is still no news. Nan Yan couldn't help but feel a little nervous and kept urging Ran Xiaoyu.
"Xiaoyu, what happened? Did you see it?"
“…”
Ran Xiaoyu frowned.
Her eyesight was good, but the birch forest was already behind the riverbank. With dusk falling, there were so many trees that it was completely dark.
She couldn't see anything.
All he could say was, "Don't worry, my lady, it's just a competition."
"But," Nan Yan frowned and said, "I don't know why, but I always feel uneasy."
“…”
"It seems like something is going to happen."
Upon hearing her say this, Ye Zheng hurried forward and comforted her, "Don't worry, your majesty. We have already arranged troops and horses to guard this grassland."
"So, what about the woods behind the riverbank? Is there anyone in there?"
"No."
Seeing Nan Yan getting anxious, Ye Zheng said hastily, "However, behind that forest is a high mountain, and behind the mountain are cliffs. Unless you have wings, no one can appear in there."
"……Yeah?"
Hearing him say this, Nan Yan felt a little relieved.
However, the uneasiness in my heart was still stirring.
From childhood to adulthood, she rarely had such an uneasy feeling, or rather, it was an intuition.
This was originally just an ordinary horse race. Winning or losing would not have much impact on her. But for some reason, she was worried.
Even, I feel uncomfortable.
Perhaps because they had been in the woods for too long, the guards began to feel uneasy. Although Zhu Feng had previously warned that none of them were allowed to interfere at the horse racing meeting, they were still a little worried at this time.
After all, the emperor's safety is the most important thing.
So, some people tentatively held torches and headed that way.
Nan Yan watched the flames gradually approaching the riverbank and woods over there. At this moment, a burst of shouts suddenly broke out from the crowd.
Someone rushed out from the woods!
Nan Yan was startled and stood up quickly, supporting herself with her hands on the table in front of her, almost leaning her whole body out of the tent.
In the twilight, a horseman and a rider were running towards this side at a rapid speed.
Who is it?
Is it Zhu Feng?
She was extremely excited. Her face was pale with worry just now, but now it immediately turned slightly red with excitement.
It’s Zhu Feng, it must be him.
He will definitely win!
While they were thinking this, the rider had already run to the track not far from them, and suddenly a cry of surprise broke out from the crowd watching on both sides.
Nan Yan heard someone shouting, "It's a woman!"
woman?
Could it be Feng Shu?
She opened her eyes wide and looked in the flickering firelight around her. Sure enough, the person riding the galloping tall horse was none other than Feng Shu!
Her light golden hair kept flying in the wind, showing a sense of wanton publicity.
Nan Yan was stunned for a moment.
Why is it her?
So, what about Zhu Feng? What about Arslan?
Just as he was thinking about it, another shout was heard from the riverbank, and two riders rushed over there. Their swift figures had turned into two lightning bolts at this time, flashing across the track.
However, the distance between them and Feng Shu has widened.
Just when Nan Yan saw Zhu Feng's figure, Feng Shu had already rushed across the finish line with a colorful flag held high in one hand under everyone's stunned gaze!
She won!
Everyone present was stunned.
Today, the contestants include the emperor and King Nanli of the Neng Kingdom. Everyone knows that this competition is between the two of them.
But no one expected that a woman who was not favored at all and even regarded as a joke at the beginning would actually beat the two men at this horse race!
Everyone was speechless for a moment.
At this time, Zhu Feng and Arslan also crossed the finish line almost at the same time.
Of course, in this case, no one cares who is second or third.
Feng Shu held the flag high in one hand. In the light of the surrounding fire, she looked as beautiful as a burning flame, fierce and unrestrained.
Nan Yan looked at her, a little dazed.
Zhu Feng's horse stopped.
The servants around him rushed over and helped him hold the horse, but he did not dismount immediately. Instead, he looked forward.
Looking at Feng Shu in the crowd, holding a flag high and smiling like a flower.
Ye Zheng also rushed down at this time and walked to his side: "Your Majesty..."
Zhu Feng didn't say anything and just got off the horse.
He threw the reins to the person next to him, then turned around and saw Arslan who had also jumped off the horse with an indescribable complicated expression on his face.
The two people's moods are probably similar now.
So, they all looked at Feng Shu again at the same time.
Then they returned to their tents.
Nan Yan hurried forward: "Your Majesty."
Zhu Feng glanced at her and said calmly, "I'm fine."
“…”
Just a simple sentence, without much explanation.
Nan Yan didn't dare to say anything more. After all, the emperor had just lost in front of everyone. This kind of thing—
If he were to lose his temper, no one would be happy.
However, Zhu Feng didn't look like he was going to get angry.
He just stood in front of his desk, watching Feng Shu below as she slowly walked up to them, holding the flagpole in one hand, and knelt on the ground: "Your Majesty, I won this horse race."
Zhu Feng nodded and said, "Women are just as good as men."
“…”
"You really opened my eyes."
“…”
"I, my word is my bond. Today I will give you a generous reward—"
"Your Majesty," Feng Shu interrupted him directly: "Since it is a huge reward, can I make my own request?"
"Oh?" Zhu Feng raised his eyebrows slightly: "What do you want?"
Feng Shu looked up at him and said loudly, "I want the emperor's favor tonight."
