Chapter 194: Vicious Female Supporting Character vs. Childless Emperor 38
Long Haochang thought Ji Yunhuan would make some excessive demands, but he didn't expect that he just wanted to play polo with him.
All Ji Yunhuan wanted was to spend more time with him. How could he lose to a woman?
"Okay! I promise you."
Long Haochang stood up with great enthusiasm, knocking over a pot of hot tea on the table, and immediately got a red mark on his hand.
The maid was half-kneeling on the ground massaging Long Haochang's legs when a pot of hot tea was poured on her head, causing her to scream.
She tilted her head back, her eyes sparkling, as if she was crying but not really, which made her even more lovable. The skin on her face was as white as porcelain, and the hot tea slid down her cheeks without leaving a trace, not even a single red mark.
Long Haochang was very nervous, "Mei'er, let me see where you are burned? Why don't you move away? I will feel bad."
Mei'er touched her face, and the feeling was almost the same as real skin, except that it lacked some elasticity and felt a little harder. She had been practicing with this face for many days, and even imitated the voice of "Mei'er".
There was nothing wrong with her face, after all, it was covered by a layer of fake skin. The hot tea flowed down her neck, burning her. She covered her chest and shook her head with tears in her eyes, "I'm fine. If I had dodged, His Highness would have been more seriously injured. How could I bear to see His Highness get hurt?"
Long Haochang was deeply moved by these words, "Silly Mei'er, don't worry, I will never let you down."
Mei'er took the opportunity to lean her head on Long Haochang and glanced at Ji Yunhuan beside her with pride.
No matter how many women are around His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, she is the one closest to him, and no one can take away her favor.
"Your Highness, you just fell off the horse and haven't rested properly yet. How can you get on the horse again? Your Highness, don't go. Mei'er will be worried about you."
Naturally, Long Haochang would not miss this opportunity. Ji Yunhuan was like a wild horse, and it was not easy to tame her. This time he must beat Ji Yunhuan until she was convinced and made Ji Yunhuan submit to him and be loyal to him.
"It's just a minor injury, not worth mentioning. Mei'er, don't you believe me? I have never lost in playing polo. Not to mention a woman, even the Loyal and Brave Marquis is not my opponent."
————
Ji Yunhuan is choosing a horse.
She really didn't understand what was so great about being an unknown maid following Long Haochang?
Shangguan Ruoxue had changed her appearance and voice, but she still recognized him at a glance. She was just too lazy to pursue the matter and did not take this person seriously.
Shangguan Ruoxue used to be the cousin of the Prime Minister's Mansion and was sought after by princes and nobles. No matter who she married, she would definitely be able to become someone's legal wife because of the Prime Minister's Mansion's status.
The current "Mei'er" is just a maid beside Long Haochang and has nothing to do with the Prime Minister's Mansion. Even if she humbles herself and becomes a bed-warming maid, it cannot hurt the reputation of the Prime Minister's Mansion.
"Meow~~" Xizi ran to a chestnut mare and signaled Ji Yunhuan to choose it.
The Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery was quite generous and brought over all the horses suitable for Ji Yunhuan, allowing her to choose.
Ji Yunhuan can ride a horse. Her horse is raised on a farm outside the capital. The Prime Minister's Mansion does not have such a large horse farm, so it is not easy to go out of the capital to ride a horse.
She believed in Xizi's judgment and reached out to touch the mare's head. The mare was very docile and was not afraid of strangers.
Ji Yunhuan fed the mare a piece of brown sugar and said with a smile, "I want it. What's its name?"
"Red Wind! Come here! Come to the master!"
Xia Mengyao was wearing riding clothes with her cuffs and trouser legs tightened. She had a leather belt around her waist with a riding whip on it. Her boots were very thick and they squeaked as she stepped on the grass.
"Ji Yunhuan, let go. Chi Feng is mine. Why do you want to snatch everything from me? Even my favorite horse."
There were seven or eight horses following Mo Niang, all of which were Xia Mengyao's favorites.
The two young ladies are of similar age and stature, and can use similar horses. Normally, the young ladies are not so stingy, so why are they being so petty today?
Mo Niang couldn't help but persuade her, "The Marquis ordered that the guests should choose first. These are all horses that the young lady likes. Qingfeng has good endurance and is suitable for playing polo. The young lady might as well use Qingfeng."
When Qingfeng heard his name, he blinked his big eyes and consciously moved closer to Xia Mengyao, rubbing his head against his master's hand obediently.
Xia Mengyao slapped Qingfeng and pushed it away, "Get lost! I want Chifeng!"
Qingfeng didn't understand what he had done wrong. He was wandering around in confusion, trying to please his master.
Mo Niang's face darkened. She pulled Qingfeng to her side and caressed him gently, then fed Qingfeng a piece of brown sugar. Only then did Qingfeng calm down, lowering his head and slowly eating grass.
"Since the young lady insists, let Chifeng choose for himself."
Mo Niang blew a whistle, and Chi Feng returned to Mo Niang. Mo Niang touched Chi Feng's mane lovingly. I don't know how they communicated, but Chi Feng seemed to understand what Mo Niang meant.
Xia Mengyao was determined to win. She just couldn't stand Ji Yunhuan. She wanted to snatch the horse that Ji Yunhuan liked!
"Chifeng is my horse, he will definitely listen to me, Chifeng come here!"
Chi Feng looked at Xia Mengyao, snorted at her, spitted in her face, then ran towards Ji Yunhuan without looking back!
Ji Yunhuan was very surprised. She really preferred red, and this horse's bright color matched her clothes very well.
"Chifeng, what a good horse, I like it."
Xia Mengyao was so angry that she whipped out her horse whip and rushed over, "You traitor, I am your master!"
Mo Niang blocked the whip.
She was tall, with long arms and legs. Her hands were covered with calluses from years of horse training. She didn't even frown when the whip hit her hands.
"Miss, I have long said that horses also have spirits. You have hurt Chi Feng's heart today, so of course Chi Feng is unwilling to let you ride him."
Xia Mengyao knew that Mo Niang was angry. She finally remembered the injured pony and looked a little embarrassed.
"Humph! If you don't want to ride it, then don't ride it. It's just a horse. I don't care about it!"
"Ji Yunhuan, you are so stupid that you actually want to fight His Highness. Not to mention that you will definitely lose, even if you win, what difference does it make? Which man would like someone as competitive as you? Do you think that His Highness will look at you differently if you take a different approach? People like you will only annoy His Highness."
"I am different. I went to ask His Highness to let me join his team. He said he would protect me. All I have to do is follow His Highness and pass the ball to him. As long as I can see His Highness' heroic figure, I will be satisfied..."
Mo Niang wanted to say something but stopped herself. Today's young lady made her feel so strange. The young lady shouldn't be like this. The young lady loved playing polo the most, so why did she become the prince's foil?
Ji Yunhuan really couldn't bear to listen any longer. She had already mounted Chifeng and swung the polo bat in her hand, scaring Xia Mengyao so much that she stepped back repeatedly.
"Do you know what you look like now? Like a dog wagging its tail to beg for mercy! Dogs know to follow those who give them meat and bones, what about you? What can you get by following the prince? Use your stupid head and think carefully. Do you really like him? What do you like about him?"
