The maid insisted that she was ordered by Gao Zhenzhen. Nangong Yu tortured her so harshly that she could not bear it and hit her head against the stove, instantly making a bloody hole in her head. It took a lot of effort from the doctor to pull her back from the brink of death.
Zhang Qian received advice from the mysterious man. As long as the mastermind behind the incident was found, she would be an accomplice and her crime would not be punishable by death. Moreover, if she blamed Gao Zhenzhen, if the matter was exposed, she would definitely be killed by the King of Qin.
Therefore, Zhang Qian insisted that she was instructed by Gao Zhenzhen. As soon as Nangong Yu tortured her, she screamed and said that she was "forced to confess" and "I will report to Lord Yuan when I get back" and so on.
Nangong Yu couldn't find a breakthrough point with them, and he felt that Ling Xiang's figure was indeed like the woman who threw him into the lake, so he came to test Ling Xiang.
Nangong Yu didn't think he was doing anything wrong: "If you don't speak, no one will think you are dumb."
Xuanyuan Qi spat out the grass in his mouth:
"It doesn't matter if I'm dumb or not, but if you can't tell right from wrong and do something despicable to help Gao Zhenzhen get out of this crime, no one will think you're infatuated. They'll just think you're obsessed with sex and using your power to oppress others."
Nangong Yu glanced at him sideways, "Hasn't it been enough that you've used your power to oppress others?"
Xuanyuan Qi seemed to be immune to Nangong Yu's venomous tongue and said nonchalantly, "The people I punish must have deserved to be punished."
Nangong Yu disagreed: "Ling Xiang is not an innocent person either."
Communication failed, and both of them stopped talking and walked in silence all the way.
The day before yesterday, Ling Xiang prepared precious elixirs as gifts for each gentleman, and they were specially selected according to the different needs of each gentleman. It can be said that the gifts touched the heart.
Therefore, several gentlemen were very polite to Ling Xiang. As soon as she entered the stable, Mr. Xiangle Shengxiang, who taught equestrianism, took her to choose a horse that suited her.
Ling Xiang can't choose horses, but she can communicate with horses.
She walked through the stables and finally chose the red-maned horse with whom she communicated most happily.
The red-maned horse is a fierce horse and is not suitable for beginners, especially delicate girls. Xiangle Sheng pointed to the shorter horse next to him and advised:
"This horse is fierce and aggressive. Miss Ling might as well choose a more docile one. The horse over there is more suitable for girls."
"Mr. Xie reminded me, but I want to give it a try." Ling Xiang insisted.
Mr. Xiang laughed heartily: "Miss Ling is a true character. Don't worry, I will do my best to protect your safety."
Ling Xiang had never ridden a horse before, so Mr. Xiang patiently taught her how to get on the horse and how to control it.
When Xuanyuan Qi and the others arrived at the horse farm, Ling Xiang was already able to get on and off the horse skillfully.
Mr. Xiang stood beside the horse and patiently instructed Ling Xiang on how to ride.
Gradually, Ling Xiang was able to ride the horse slowly forward.
"Come on, Miss!" Xiaoyu clapped her hands and was very happy for Ling Xiang.
Ling Xiang smiled and waved at Xiaoyu, and was very happy to learn.
Xuanyuan Qi called Xiaoyu over and said, "Go over there and choose a horse and train with your young lady. Then, when your young lady rides a horse in the future, you can keep her company."
"Really?" Xiaoyu was very happy and ran to choose a horse like the wind.
Ling Xiang looked at Mr. Xiang first.
Mr. Xiang was not displeased. The decision made by the prince was not something he could question.
Anyone who can be a teacher in the Prince of Qin's Mansion must not only have strong skills, but also have a considerable social status. I am afraid he would not bother to teach maids. Otherwise, Ling Xiang would have asked to let Xiaoyu study with him long ago.
But now it was His Royal Highness Prince Huai who spoke, and Mr. Xiang did not stop him. Ling Xiang was naturally happy to see it happen. He turned his horse around, rode to the stable, and helped Xiaoyu choose a horse.
Xiaoyu was studious. She remembered everything that Mr. Xiang had just taught Ling Xiang. She quickly got on the horse and rode slowly forward with Ling Xiang.
Mr. Xiang instructed the teaching assistants around him to protect the safety of Ling Xiang and the other two, and then he began to examine the two princes' homework.
Student number one, Nangong Yu, was the first to mount his horse, draw his sword, and perform a set of smooth sword moves on horseback.
Mr. Xiang mounted his horse immediately afterwards. His aura suddenly changed. He spurred his horse and whipped it, instantly exuding a murderous aura.
The two men raised their swords to fight each other, and their riding skills combined with their swordsmanship made people feel as if they were in the midst of war and iron horses for an instant.
Ling Xiang reined in his horse, stopped to watch, and couldn't help but sigh, he is indeed worthy of being the hero in the book, he is top-notch in every aspect, his riding skills are really impeccable, in one word - handsome!
Nangong Yu became more and more powerful as the battle went on, and every battle was quite exciting.
After dozens of rounds, Mr. Xiang was the first to rein in his horse: "Not bad, in today's test, the King of Qin is superior."
Next it was Xuanyuan Qi's turn.
Ling Xiang originally thought that Xuanyuan Qi, a poor student, would just go through the motions as usual and annoy the teacher at the same time.
As a result, Xuanyuan Qi easily jumped onto the horse, without using any sword moves, he drew his sword and ran towards Nangong Yu: "Cousin, let's fight!"
Mr. Xiang did not stop him. He rode away from the battlefield and went to watch the battle next to Ling Xiang.
Ling Xiang also didn't expect that Xuanyuan Qi, a person who only worked hard but didn't put in any effort in whatever he learned, was actually no worse than Nangong Yu in riding and horsemanship.
When the two men fought, their momentum was even more shocking than the one Mr. Xiang had just fought!
The horses under the several people watching the fight were affected and pawed their front hooves, looking eager to try.
Ling Xiang immediately bent down to calm the two horses.
Mr. Xiang looked at Ling Xiang with a puzzled look on his face. While watching the fight, he asked, "Miss Ling, can you communicate with horses?"
Ling Xiang explained, "I have an equestrian lesson today, so I did some homework in advance and learned a few basics. I'm sorry to bother you, sir."
Mr. Xiang continued to watch the battle, commenting, "When His Royal Highness the Prince of Qin and I fought just now, our fighting spirit was at its peak. His Royal Highness the Prince of Huai chose this moment to engage in battle with His Royal Highness the Prince of Qin, so he must have suffered a bit of a loss."
The two men fought for half an hour, and both of them were injured to varying degrees, but Xuanyuan Qi didn't care at all. He continued to attack again and again, as if he would not stop until he knocked Nangong Yu down.
Mr. Xiang was so engrossed in watching the game that he forgot to call a halt for a moment.
The two men were fighting fiercely. Suddenly, their weapons flew out of their hands at the same time and shot towards Ling Xiang!
Mr. Xiang was the first to react. He rolled over on his horse and tried his best to block the flying sword.
The huge impact caused Mr. Xiang to spit out blood and fall off his horse.
He successfully blocked one sword at the cost of being seriously injured, but the other sword just deviated slightly and hit the red-maned horse under Ling Xiang!
The horse felt pain and ran like mad.
"Ah! Miss!" Xiaoyu screamed in fright, her face turning pale.
"Help!" Mr. Xiang didn't care about his own injuries and turned over to get on the horse again.
But someone was faster than him.
Nangong Yu and Xuanyuan Qi both flew towards Ling Xiang.
However, it was Nangong Yu's intention to send Jian Fei towards Ling Xiang. Naturally, he reacted faster than anyone else. He was the first to jump onto Ling Xiang's horse, grabbed the reins, and helped her control the red-maned horse.
"What did you do during the time you were missing during the flower viewing banquet?" Nangong Yu asked Ling Xiang close to her ear.
