Chapter 190: Vicious Female Supporting Character vs. Childless Emperor 34
When Ji Yunhuan carried Xizi to the martial arts field, he heard deafening cheers!
Not only the women in Fu'an Hall, but also the male guests in the front hall had arrived, including Marquis Zhongyong.
The martial arts arena is actually a huge high platform that can accommodate many people for fighting. At this moment, the martial arts arena was filled with fragrant breezes, and many female relatives were sitting or standing, crowding in the front to admire the heroic figure of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
Below is the vast horse farm with green grass and agile horses running back and forth freely.
Only the Mansion of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery can own such a large horse farm in the capital.
Holding a crossbow, Long Haochang shot three iron arrows in succession, all of which hit the straw target at the other end of the horse field.
The horses in the stable were startled and started running wildly. A chestnut pony was suddenly frightened and ran towards Long Haochang in panic!
"Your Highness, be careful!" The women in the martial arts arena screamed and all looked at His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in the horse racing field with concern.
Xia Mengyao even jumped down from the martial arts arena and flew towards His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. She untied the soft sword in her hand and stabbed at Xiao Ma, "Get out of here! You are not allowed to hurt His Royal Highness!"
Long Haochang laughed heartily, he liked the feeling of being the center of attention. Today he was in the limelight and all the guests were fascinated by him. He finally relieved the depression that had been building for many days.
He held the bow in one hand, and with a whoosh, a sharp arrow shot out. In his panic, the shot was not very accurate and did not hit the beast's head, but only hit one of its legs.
The pony let out a mournful cry, staggered and fell to the ground, tears streaming from his big watery eyes.
It didn't understand why the little master didn't save it. It moved its body with difficulty and rubbed its head against the little master's feet...
Xia Mengyao had already rushed to Long Haochang's side, her eyes sparkling with stars, and she exclaimed: "Your Highness has great archery skills...ah!"
The pony on the ground nudged her, and she lost her balance and was about to fall. The soft sword in her hand could not provide any leverage, and she subconsciously fell towards Long Haochang!
Long Haochang was in a good mood, so he stretched out his hand to hold Xia Mengyao's waist. He smiled crookedly and said helplessly: "You are so impatient. If you hadn't suddenly come over, I would have definitely taken its head!"
The soft sword in Xia Mengyao's hand fell to the ground, a heat rushed to her cheeks, and her face turned red with shame. She felt her body was as soft as noodles, and she felt like she was falling into the clouds, and she couldn't exert any strength at all.
"Your Highness...Your Highness...I'm sorry...I didn't...mean it..."
The women in the martial arts arena were so angry when they saw His Highness hugging Xia Mengyao that they stomped their feet and wished they could cut Xia Mengyao into pieces!
"His Royal Highness is so heroic, why would she need to interfere? She is clearly throwing herself into his arms on purpose!"
"If I had known earlier, I would have rushed down too. Maybe it's me that His Highness is holding in his arms right now. I'm much more beautiful than her."
"I'm not as shameless as her. Your Highness would not like such a person! Born by a mother but not raised by her, no wonder she has no sense of shame!"
"Why won't she let go? Is she really going to rely on Your Highness? She's even more shameless than Ji Yunhuan!"
Ji Yunhuan was implicated even though she did nothing. She did not squeeze to the front. She was the last one to arrive, accompanying Old Madam Xia.
When Xia Mengyao saw Long Haochang, she didn't even care about her grandmother's birthday. She didn't even think there was anything wrong with Long Haochang stealing her grandmother's favorite crossbow. Instead, she chased after him eagerly, holding the wooden box containing iron arrows.
Princess Rong'an has already left, and all the female relatives present are fascinated by Long Haochang. The unmarried ladies want to marry Long Haochang, and the married ladies want to marry their daughters to the Prince's Mansion.
Old Lady Xia found those dirty words unbearable to watch. She suddenly felt powerless. No matter how she taught, it was in vain. Her granddaughter still revolved around Long Haochang.
The servant in the mansion brought a chair and Ji Yunhuan helped Old Madam Xia sit down.
"They are obviously the best girls, respectful to me, always chatting and laughing, and very smart. Why do they become different people when they meet His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?"
Ji Yunhuan couldn't answer. In her previous life, she never thought there was anything wrong with this. It seemed that everyone should revolve around Long Haochang.
She had died once, so she had let it go, but others were still deeply trapped in it.
The fault was with Long Haochang and this somewhat weird world, not those girls who were like puppets.
"Don't worry, old lady. I will definitely help Miss Xia. There may be danger today. It's windy here. Let the servants help you go back and rest."
Madam Xia held Ji Yunhuan's hand tightly. "I feel relieved when you said that. I am already half buried in the earth. I have seen all kinds of storms. The only thing I am worried about is Yao'er."
"I'll just watch from here. You go ahead. No matter what the result is, the Loyal and Brave Marquis Mansion will be grateful to you."
Old Madam Xia had made up her mind, so Ji Yunhuan stopped trying to persuade her.
She squeezed to the front of the martial arts arena. The women around her only dared to whisper and did not dare to stop her. They even stayed three feet away from her, isolating her tacitly.
Xizi squeezed to her feet and accompanied her silently.
Although Ji Yunhuan looks lively and cheerful, he must be very lonely. Ever since he entered the Prime Minister's Mansion, Ji Yunhuan has been sticking to him all day long. She would rather nag at him than go out to visit relatives and friends.
In other words, she had no friends at all! There was no noble lady in the capital who didn't hate her.
The girl is still in her prime, with a face as beautiful as a flower, but she has no one to confide her troubles to and can only talk to a cat.
No matter how good his parents and brothers are, they are all busy and cannot be by his side all the time. It seems that Ji Yunhuan is always alone.
The view here is excellent, and you can see everything on the racecourse.
Long Haochang hugged Xia Mengyao and spun around, then raised his hand and shot all the arrows, and every arrow hit the bull's eye.
He let go of Xia Mengyao, who was still immersed in the pink bubble of love, twisting her fingers, at a loss, "Thank you, Yao'er... Thank you, Your Highness..."
Long Haochang prefers well-behaved and docile women. Seeing Xia Mengyao's little girl's attitude, he felt a little pity for her.
After today, there will no longer be the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery Mansion in the capital. If Xia Mengyao can be docile and obedient, he doesn't mind sparing this woman's life.
"I have shot all my arrows. You must find them all for me. Don't leave any one behind."
Xia Mengyao felt that the voice beside her ears was like the sound of nature. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had never spoken to her so gently. She nodded in panic, "Yao'er will go right away."
The iron arrow was extremely powerful. After hitting the center of the bull, it went straight through and scattered everywhere. Xia Mengyao shuttled around the horse farm like a butterfly, searching everywhere. She even refused to let the servants help and insisted on picking it up herself.
The loyal and brave Marquis standing next to the horse farm had a dark face!
He was surrounded by relatives and friends who came to the banquet. In addition to military generals, there were also some civil officials. The civil officials cursed at people without using any dirty words. They were all mocking him for selling his daughter for fame and fortune, and even letting his daughter do things like a slave to please the prince!
The prince's action was clearly a humiliation to the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery's Mansion, but Yao'er was a fool and did not feel humiliated at all. Instead, she took pride in it.
If they try to please the Crown Prince like this, who will believe that the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery’s Mansion is impartial and not involved in party disputes?
The Loyal and Brave Marquis raised his hand and called a servant, saying, "Tell Mo Niang to leave the pony alone for now. The groom will take care of it. Go and bring the young lady back! If the young lady disobeys, knock this evil creature unconscious to prevent her from embarrassing herself!"
