Ying Huaiji had already given up the idea of competing, but now after hearing about Jiang Dingcheng's affairs, he had to pay extra attention to this bet.
The emperor did nothing. On such an important matter, he allowed his sons to decide it in this way. It would be a joke if it got out.
However, he is not qualified to give advice or make decisions now.
Take your time.
Xiao Cunyu took off his outer robe and went into battle lightly.
He touched the big dark horse given by his elder brother in the morning and looked quite serious. On the other side, Xiao Jingyun was still worried and was even thinking about how to let his younger brother win without leaving any trace.
But it's just... too difficult.
Several princes and children from aristocratic families are all proficient in riding and shooting. It would be difficult for him to let them off under their noses...
Moreover, even if he let them go, there were still the men of King Yue, King Qin and King Lu to compete with. It was almost wishful thinking for his silly brother to stand out from them.
And the tiger...
"Seventh brother, don't be afraid later. You can take advantage of the time when others are attracting the tiger's attention to immediately go up to the platform and grab the flag. Be careful." Xiao Jingyun said openly.
He was now protected on both sides by King Rui's warriors and could not say much to his brother.
King Rui would never allow him to discuss the details with his brother.
That was all he could say.
"Don't worry, big brother. I've always been lucky, and I'm protected by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's men. I'm sure to win!" Xiao Cunyu was quite serious at this moment.
But the more serious she was, the more worried Xiao Jingyun became.
This kid is so scared that he cries for his parents when he sees a caterpillar. Isn't the big tiger not far away a million times scarier than a caterpillar?
Unfortunately, there was not enough time for Xiao Jingyun to explain more.
Soon, five teams were ready to go.
The two warriors beside Xiao Cunyu looked very serious and seemed to be under a lot of pressure.
Except for Xiao Jingyun, the other young masters couldn't help but look at her with sympathy. After all, she looked the weakest among them, yet she was quite arrogant.
"Don't worry, Lord Xiao. If your brother is in danger, we will try our best to save him and will not let him lose his life." The speaker was from the King of Yue's men.
Xiao Cunyu now knew the three young masters except Xiao Jingyun.
The man who went into battle for the King of Yue was called Zhang Xiu Ji. He looked about the same age as the eldest brother and seemed to be a decent and reserved person.
The man sent to support the king was called Yuan Yi. He was a little arrogant and conceited. His eyes had a slightly feminine, sharp and fierce look. It was obvious at first glance that he was someone who had to be guarded against.
The rest were the King of Lu's men, whose name was Wang Xie. He was not very old, but he was quite big, and the horse he rode was much stronger than that of others.
The five men each brought two warriors, and as soon as the battle flag was waved, they all rushed out with all their strength.
Xiao Cunyu temporarily put away his three-foot sword and placed a lot of arrows on his body and on both sides of his horse.
The black horse leaped, and the only sound in his ears was the whistling of the wind.
Xiao Jingyun took a look first and saw that Xiao Cunyu was riding steadily on the horse. She was no longer as decadent and careless as before. His eyes lit up. At least... as long as she slowed down, she wouldn't fall off.
The first level is a racetrack with "deer antler barriers" every few meters. These barriers are made of wood and stone, with the tops of the wood sharpened and tied crosswise, like deer antlers. Forcing your way over them will most likely result in people falling off their horses.
Xiao Cunyu was not very familiar with this dark horse and was a little uncomfortable with it.
But once he lifted the reins, he easily passed a few of them.
