Ni Yueshan knew that Miao Yuan was no pushover. If Ni Yingying fell into her hands, she would either die or be crippled...
Zhucui Pavilion.
Miao Yuan was still lying on the bed. The servant brought Ni Yingying. Miao Yuan didn't know what was going on. She was still wondering. The servant reported everything to Miao Yuan, and Miao Yuan's expression immediately became cold.
She sat up and squinted her eyes at Ni Yingying: "You are so brave, how dare you hurt Yue Shan!"
The servant next to her helped Miao Yuan to stand up. Miao Yuan's face was pale as she stood in front of Ni Yingying.
"I can't believe you, a concubine's daughter, married into the general's mansion and became his wife. You should be content, but instead of being content, you plot to murder someone!"
She finished her words angrily and took a few deep breaths. "Come on, drag her away and beat her. Beat her hard. Flog her thirty times a day. Don't give her any medicine or food! Let her feel enough pain, and then continue beating her the next day. Beat her until she can't take it anymore and dies!"
Ni Yingying looked at Miao Yuan and chuckled softly, "Compared to me, the eldest lady's viciousness is no less than mine."
She was dragged away, and soon bursts of wailing were heard outside the house.
Ni Yueshan felt a little bored watching from the roof.
Jing Yuchen put his arm around her waist and left.
Although the red-dressed woman Ni Yingying encountered was a staged act by someone in the Prime Minister's residence, after the news spread, rumors continued to circulate that Ni Yueshan had transformed into a ghost and was seeking Ni Yingying's life, and that Ni Yingying had died of fright in the Prime Minister's residence that same day...
When Ni Yueshan heard the news, she was a little surprised. She thought Ni Yingying could only hold on for two or three days...
"So you disappeared last night just to scare this Ni Yingying?" Duan Gouqiong gnawed on the apple in his hand and looked at the two of them with only contempt in his eyes.
"We didn't mean to leave you alone." Ni Yueshan tried to explain, but Duan Gouqiong said, "Stop it, don't explain. I know it's inconvenient for you, but I've always been broad-minded."
She moved closer to Ni Yueshan, with a flattering expression: "Can you persuade the Second Prince to help me?"
Ni Yueshan was surprised: "How can he help you?"
"I have been following the Second Prince these days. The envoy must want to know how the relationship between the Second Prince and me is progressing, so... let the Second Prince cooperate with this princess in the play."

Inside the Beijing racecourse, Jing Yuchen and Duan Gouqiong walked up to a fat horse and said, "Let's take this one. It's docile."
Duan Gouqiong rolled her eyes at Jing Yuchen and said, "Do you think I'm just one of your ordinary weak women? A docile horse is not challenging at all. Give me the fastest and most powerful one!"
She had a proud expression on her face and was very confident in her riding skills!
Jing Yuchen looked at Duan Gouqiong strangely, but he did not argue with Duan Gouqiong. He asked someone to bring a different horse over.
Duan Gouqiong reached out and touched the horse in front of him, curling his lips: "Good horse, cooperate with me well today, I want to beat the Second Prince!"
Jing Yuchen frowned: "You want to race horses with me? Instead of letting me teach you?"
"When did I ever say I wanted you to teach me how to ride a horse?"
She rolled her eyes at Jing Yuchen, then climbed onto the horse. Her movements and demeanor didn't look like that of someone who didn't know how to ride a horse.
The envoy standing not far away was walking with the other ministers of Xianchang. The minister of Xianchang started to praise: "Princess Gou Qiong is really capable. Look at her heroic figure. She is as brave as a man!"
Hearing Duan Gouqiong being praised, the envoy laughed and said, "The princess is lively by nature and loves riding and shooting. Her riding and shooting skills have always been Canglie's pride!"
Jing Yuchen rode a horse to Duan Gouqiong's side. Duan Gouqiong turned to look at him and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"Second Prince, let's have a duel. If you lose, go to your father and ask for permission to marry me!"
She deliberately raised her voice so that the ministers and envoys present could hear it clearly.
Jing Yuchen frowned tightly: "What are you doing?"
Duan Gouqiong moved closer to Jing Yuchen and whispered, "Sister Yueshan has asked you to help me. You are just acting, what are you afraid of?"
The two of them spoke in low voices and got very close to each other. To outsiders, their behavior seemed very intimate.
"What if you lost?" Jing Yuchen asked in cooperation.
Duan Gouqiong laughed and said loudly: "Of course we will follow our Canglie's rules!"
"What rules?" Jing Yuchen looked puzzled.
"You'll know when you lose." Duan Gouqiong blinked mischievously, then glanced at the envoy standing not far away, whipped the horse, and let the horse run.
Jing Yuchen frowned, sped up his horse and caught up.
The rustling of the wind filled their ears. Duan Gouqiong, while steering his horse, warned, "Second Prince, please be careful. I'm not kidding you. Many people are watching."
After she finished speaking, she raised the whip in her hand again, each blow heavier than the last.
She rode her horse like a gust of wind, and in a moment she left Jing Yuchen behind Xu Yuan.
Jing Yuchen quickened his pace, not wanting to lose to her, so he went before the emperor and asked for a marriage.
Inside the horse farm, the envoys were very pleased to see the two of them galloping back and forth and making promises. The idle ministers were also filled with surprise. This marriage would definitely be successful!
Under everyone's expectant gaze, Duan Gouqiong's horse seemed to go crazy suddenly. After a neigh, it began to shake Duan Gouqiong on its back.
Duan Gouqiong clung tightly to the horse to avoid being thrown off. She screamed in fear, and the expressions of the other people present also changed.
Jing Yuchen's expression changed slightly. He reined in his horse to slow down, then flew towards the horse where Duan Gouqiong was. The moment she fell, Jing Yuchen rolled over and landed beside her, catching her in his arms. The two of them rolled several times due to inertia before they stabilized.
Everyone present was frightened and ran over, surrounding the two of them.
"Princess, Princess, how are you? Are you okay?"
"Second Prince, are you okay?"
Someone came forward and helped the two of them up one after another. Duan Gouqiong looked at his arm and found some scratches, while Jing Yuchen seemed to have injured his leg.
"Thank you, Second Prince, for rescuing me. If it weren't for you, I would have been badly hurt."
As she spoke, she lowered her head and took out a belt from her sleeve.
"This is what I embroidered for you, the Second Prince. I hope you will accept it!"
In front of everyone present, she seemed a little shy, with her head lowered and her cheeks flushed.
Jing Yuchen frowned and did not take it, because he knew what Duan Gouqiong's belt represented in the eyes of the Canglie people.
