Chapter 130 Something Happened To Hua Jing (Part One)

Yun Shang gave a bland yet cold smile, "I can't ride a horse. Sister, why are you behind me? I heard the Grand Councilor taught you horsemanship..."

Hua Jing snorted as she disliked Yun Shang, but she knew if they had a conflict at the moment, she would be the one who suffered. She frowned, "I feel quite uncomfortable today. When my horse runs fast, I feel dizzy. Yun Shang, you are riding Ta Yun, Prince Jing's beloved horse. You should not lose."

"Sister, you know I can't ride a horse. Ta Yun is indeed a good horse, and it brought me here by itself. However, once we reached the dense forest, it didn't follow my instructions at all. We have been here for a long time, but it just doesn't move. It is Prince Jing's beloved horse, and I can neither scold it nor beat it. I can only wait until it moves." Yun Shang furrowed her brows and patted the horse under her, but Ta Yun didn't move at all. Instead, it raised its head and looked somewhat stubborn.

Hua Jing looked at Yun Shang with mockery and thought to herself, 'Good-for-nothing.'

However, she pretended to be sympathetic and gave a tiny smile, "Yun Shang, you can rest here. I'm leaving."

Yun Shang nodded, "Sister, go on ahead. If you win the game today, the Empress and Grand Councilor would be pleased."

Hua Jing narrowed her eyes as she knew her performance would be poor today, and her mother and grandfather would feel ashamed, but... Hua Jing sighed wearily as she rode forward leisurely.

After Hua Jing vanished in the distance, a lady in black appeared in front of Yun Shang, "Mistress, everything's ready."

Yun Shang gave a cold smile saying, "Great! How about Cangyang Yu'er and Jing Wenxi?"

The lady snorted, "Those two are just devious. They wanted to set a trap where Your Highness would pass by. They sprinkled some black beans in the forest. Black bean is the favored food of Ferghana horses. But they mixed narcotics in the beans. I think they still have other plots, but Lady Wang caught up with them. She has stayed around them to keep an eye on them. It will be hard for them to find a chance."

"Really?" Yun Shang gave a little smile, "How did they know Prince Jing would lend Ta Yun to me?"

The lady nodded, "Two days ago, Prince Jing made a list of the daughters of the officials who can ride horses, and prepared the corresponding number of horses. They must somehow know of this and concluded that if they instigate Your Highness to join in the competition, Prince Jing would have to l

attacking Princess Hua Jing."

As the bear staggered to its feet, Qingsu jumped from his horse and pounced upon the bear. He drew a dagger from his boot and stabbed the bear. The bear wailed mournfully before falling to the ground.

Yun Shang curled her lips and escaped from the scene. She returned to the place where she had left Ta Yun. Qingsu's attention was on the bear right now. If she stayed any longer, she would be discovered by him. As soon as Yun Shang returned, she saw the lady in black standing on a tree next to Ta Yun. Yun Shang smiled and mounted the horse, "Well done! Where are the black beans? Let's go there..."

The lady led Yun Shang to the place with the black beans. Ta Yun smelled the beans but didn't eat. Yun Shang laughed out loud, "Those two ladies are so stupid. Even Ta Yun can sense there's something wrong with the beans."

The lady also smiled. Yun Shang scooped a handful of beans and brought them closer to Ta Yun's mouth.

Ta Yun snorted as if it felt sorry for itself before eating several beans, and then turned its face away.

Yun Shang got on the horse and moved forward. The interesting part of the drama was yet to come. She couldn't miss it.

When Yun Shang got out from the forest, Ta Yun seemed a little annoyed. Its movements became rougher and it rushed towards the finish line. Yun Shang tried to behave as if she couldn't ride a horse and was frightened. She almost fell to the ground several times. As she approached the finish line, she saw Yu'er and Wenxi gloating. She patted Ta Yun's neck, and Ta Yun suddenly sped up. Yun Shang had a look of horror on her face as she was sent flying into the air.
