Chapter 193: Vicious Female Supporting Character vs. Childless Emperor 37
At the critical moment, Mo Niang, who had been following behind, rushed over!
Mo Niang also stood up. Her black horse was taller and stronger, and she stood on the horse's back, much taller than Long Haochang. No one could see how she did it, but she kicked the crossbow away!
The next moment, Mo Niang carried Xia Mengyao onto the black horse. Xia Mengyao finally gave in to the resistance and followed Mo Niang back. She was so frightened that she let Mo Niang hold her and leave Long Haochang.
Ji Yunhuan watched the black circle on Long Haochang's head grow bigger and bigger, and the "lucky halo" on her head also grew bigger and bigger.
The more unlucky Long Haochang is, the luckier she is.
But this treasure has a time limit, so you need to use it quickly.
After Xia Mengyao came back, she became much more well-behaved. She leaned against Old Madam Xia, not knowing what she was thinking about.
The noble ladies in the martial arts arena saw Xia Mengyao coming back and started to mock her again.
"If she hadn't insisted on following, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wouldn't have made the mistake!"
"Yes, yes, it's all because of her pestering Your Highness that Your Highness missed the target."
"She was fine just now, but she slipped and fell as soon as she got close to His Highness. It's obvious that she and His Highness are incompatible, so she should stay away from His Highness."
"The Marquis died after giving birth to her. She is a disaster, bringing misfortune to her father and mother..."
Xia Mengyao couldn't help but jump out and argue with these noble ladies, "Shut up! I'm not a disaster! I'm not unlucky for Your Highness! You're just jealous of me..."
Ji Yunhuan saw the deep disappointment in Old Madam Xia's eyes.
Even though her life was almost over, Xia Mengyao still didn't wake up.
The noble ladies present were even more bizarre. Instead of saying that Long Haochang was not a good archer, they blamed the victim who almost died.
Ji Yunhuan noticed a round-faced girl huddled in the corner. She had beautiful double buns and her face was flushed with anxiety.
"Stop arguing! It's not Sister Xia's fault! Look! His Highness still missed the target!"
On the racecourse.
Long Haochang thought that without the burden of Xia Mengyao, he would be able to show his talents.
He used another trick, falling to the left, passing under the horse's belly, and then getting back on the horse's back.
The horse was walking very slowly, but when he passed through the horse's belly, for some reason, the horse suddenly ran wildly and he was kicked hard on the back. Fortunately, he was an excellent rider and he pulled the reins to sit firmly again.
He felt a sharp pain in his spine, but in front of so many people, he naturally didn't want anyone to notice his mistake, so he endured it.
Long Haochang was getting closer and closer to the target. The servants at the stable were very observant. The speed of the target was getting slower and slower, almost standing still.
He raised his hand and shot. The iron arrow just brushed past the target but missed it!
whoosh whoosh whoosh!
He fired at a target continuously, but after all his arrows were shot, he still missed a single one!
"Come again!" Cold sweat dripped down Long Haochang's forehead, half from the pain and the other half from nervousness.
This time the iron arrow was easy to find, and the servant quickly picked it up.
The target became fixed. Long Haochang rushed over on his horse and shot ten arrows in a row, but none of them hit the target!
"Come again!"
Long Haochang's eyes were red with anger. Impossible! There was no way he could miss the target!
From the first day he learned riding and archery, he hit the target with every arrow. The King of Jin praised him as a rare genius.
Three days later, he won over all his brothers and became the King of Jin's favorite son.
He is the chosen one! He is the best among men! He is the future emperor. He will definitely hit the target!
Long Haochang shot again like crazy!
He sat upright on the horse's back. The horse didn't move, the man didn't move, and the target didn't move either. But he still didn't hit the target.
The horse under him suddenly became agitated, swaying left and right as if trying to throw him off!
He tamed the King of Jin's favorite wild horse on his first day of riding. He was sure he could tame a mere mixed-breed horse!
With a bang, Long Haochang fell off the horse's back. The horse galloped away on his belly, making a happy cry!
"Someone, come! Protect the emperor! Hurry up and help His Royal Highness the Crown Prince up!"
Marquis Zhongyong started shouting after watching the excitement. He looked anxious, but he was very happy in his heart!
He had long felt that Long Haochang was a useless guy, with unsteady steps, poor martial arts skills, and even a vague idea of riding and archery skills. But Long Haochang always won and received applause from the whole house!
Today is finally a good day! This guy deserves to be kicked by a horse!
The generals frowned and whispered to each other, "Your Highness is not like this on normal days. What happened today?"
"Humph! I think he just doesn't have much experience in his craft and still likes to show off!"
"Hush~ Be careful with your words, he is the prince, we cannot discuss him."
The ladies in the martial arts arena were almost crying with anxiety. They felt sorry for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and wished they could take the blame for him.
"That horse is too ignorant. It must be very painful for Your Highness to fall down."
"Your Highness's heroic appearance is truly enchanting. It's all because of that crossbow that doesn't work well!"
"Sisters, don't you think there is something wrong with His Highness's riding posture? If the horse is uncomfortable, it will definitely resist."
Zhong Shiya mustered up her courage and finally expressed her idea.
She closed her eyes, waiting for the accusations and abuses from the crowd, but some people actually started to agree with her.
"Sister Shi Ya is right. My father is the general of the cavalry. He taught me to ride a horse since I was a child. Your Highness the Crown Prince doesn't ride correctly. He is worse than a child."
"That's right. The horse was shaking so much that of course I couldn't hit it."
"Why has His Royal Highness become like this? Is he sick?"
Ji Yunhuan listened to the discussions around him. These noble ladies finally stopped their mindless flattery of Long Haochang.
She looked into Zhong Shiya's sparkling eyes and smiled knowingly, "You see, telling the truth is not that scary, right? You did the right thing and were very brave."
Zhong Shiya was greatly encouraged. She felt that the Ji family sister was amazing! She dared to say anything and do anything!
Ji Yunhuan felt that it was not enough!
Long Haochang's reputation spread through such flattery, and she wanted to shatter everyone's false good impression of Long Haochang!
Long Haochang felt severe pain in his body, but he still refused to leave.
Marquis Zhongyong ordered people to arrange seats at the side of the horse field. Long Haochang secretly took two healing pills. When he was drinking water and swallowing them, the pills got stuck in his throat, and he almost passed out from coughing.
I'm so unlucky today!
Ji Yunhuan was delighted. When Long Haochang saw Ji Yunhuan smiling at him, he thought he had Ji Yunhuan under his control. As expected, as long as he treated other women with care, Ji Yunhuan would not dare to make trouble again.
"Huan'er, come to me."
Ji Yunhuan already had an idea in mind, so he went there happily, "What do you want, Your Highness?"
This smile dazzled Long Haochang's eyes. He found that this woman was beautiful and elegant, truly stunning. It would be a pleasure if she could obey him in everything like before.
"Do you know where Mei Lingshuang went?"
Ji Yunhuan was holding a polo stick and with his wide sleeves tied up, he looked particularly heroic.
"Why did you mention another woman, Your Highness? Huan'er will be angry."
Long Haochang was overjoyed. Ji Yunhuan really knew everything. "Don't worry, Huan'er. I will give you whatever you want."
Two thick wooden boards were erected on the north and south sides of the racecourse. In the middle of the boards was a hole as big as a bowl, which was the goal.
Xizi rolled a polo ball over, which was only the size of a fist. Xizi threw the polo ball up, and Ji Yunhuan swung the polo stick casually. Relying on the "halo of good luck", she knew without even looking that the ball would definitely go in.
"Huan'er wants to play a game of polo with His Highness. If His Highness can beat me, I will tell him everything I know."
