The Emperor smiled with satisfaction: "Xuan'er is very thoughtful. You've done a good job as an older brother, considering all that for your younger brother."
The eldest prince smiled insincerely and said, "As the eldest brother, it is only right that I consider the needs of my younger brothers."
The eldest prince immediately garnered a lot of praise.
An Yuan'er felt that the eldest prince was hypocritical; the sudden addition of horseback riding was something he had picked out to do.
He's gained both face and substance now; it's disgusting.
The Emperor addressed the assembled men, asking, "Today, is there anyone willing to fight in place of the Sixth Prince?"
After the Emperor spoke, everyone present fell into a deathly silence.
Everyone looked at each other, but no one was willing to step forward.
Putting aside the fact that representing the Sixth Prince might offend the First Prince, the Fifth Prince, and Young Master An, who are also participating in the competition, even if it's not about offending anyone, this requires signing a life-or-death agreement. It seems like a thankless task, and the men present are all wealthy and powerful, and each one is shrewd enough not to want to take the lead.
The Emperor asked again, "Today, is there anyone willing to fight in place of the Sixth Prince?"
......
Still no one.
The eldest prince chuckled to himself; he refused to believe that anyone would dare to come out.
Who does Yi Chenli think he is? Anyone who dares to offend him will only be given a small lesson today.
Yi Chenli simply lowered his eyes, sitting in his wheelchair, playing with the handles on the wheelchair. He looked relaxed, and it was impossible to tell whether he was happy or angry.
After hearing the Emperor's heartless remarks behind the tent that day, Yi Chenli lost interest in the archery competition; he didn't care who won anyway.
Moreover, Yi Chenli's original plan was not to stand out in this competition.
The time is not yet right.
Yi Chenqi and Yi Chenxuan are destined to have a fierce battle today. He doesn't have to do anything and can even watch a good show.
The second time, there was still no response.
The Emperor patiently asked for the third time: "Today, is there anyone willing to fight in place of the Sixth Prince?"
An Yuan'er made a move as soon as the Emperor asked the question for the first time, but Lin Moran kept holding her down and wouldn't let her move.
"Mo Ran, let me go. Let me go!"
Lin Moran said earnestly, "Xiao Yuan'er, you've already signed a waiver of life and death. Today's situation is more complicated than we thought. You only spent three days learning to ride a horse; with your skills, you'll get bullied."
Lin Moran originally thought it would just be a simple horseback riding lesson, so she taught An Yuan'er. If she had known the consequences would be so serious, she wouldn't have taught her.
“You won’t win even if you go, An Yuan’er, I won’t allow you to go.”
An Yuan'er struggled, her voice firm: "Mo Ran, I know I can't win. But at least I want to tell him that he's not alone. There will definitely be someone willing to stand up for him."
"Idiot! An Yuan'er, you can't go."
An Yuan'er looked at Lin Moran deeply and said softly, "I'm sorry, Moran, I can't agree."
She scratched the spot on Lin Moran that was most ticklish, and Lin Moran let go, allowing An Yuan'er to break free immediately.
A beautiful female voice suddenly rang out from the quiet crowd.
"I am willing to fight in place of the Sixth Prince!"
Yi Chenli, who had been sitting calmly in his wheelchair, suddenly raised his eyes, which had been lowered, with a hint of disbelief.
He looked towards the stands, where a girl with her hands raised walked out and headed towards him.
With a hint of determination and a glimmer of hope, the girl walked resolutely toward him.
Suddenly, a ray of sunlight shone through, illuminating the girl's beautiful profile. Yi Chenli heard his own heart pounding uncontrollably.
