Chapter 27
The stables are in the backyard of Prince Qi's Mansion, next to the polo field.

The polo field covers an area of ​​[-] acres, very spacious, with all kinds of equipment on the field.There are even targets and stakes.

Normally, Cheng Muqing would take a stroll here to exercise.

Lin Heng stood under the stable, with a white horse beside him.

"My lord!" Cheng Muqing waved to him.

In the sunlight, he saw the girl wearing a water-blue brocade dress, a turquoise cape, and her hair tied up in a bun.The warm sun shone on her fair little face, making her face look like cream.

She was smiling at him, her almond eyes were as bright as obsidian.

"Why did you come here?" Cheng Muqing walked up to him, and raised his hand to touch the white horse.

When the white horse saw its master coming, it rubbed its head against her affectionately.

"Walk casually." In fact, he found out in the past few days that she would come here for a walk.

"Very good, let's go out for a walk more often." Cheng Muqing's eyes fell on the white horse, "This horse has been with me for ten years, I call it Dabai. Does it look good? Is it a fine horse?"

"Yeah." Lin Heng nodded.

"Do you want to try, my lord?" Cheng Muqing asked.

Try horseback riding?

Under the expectant eyes of the girl, Lin Heng nodded.

Cheng Muqing pulled out the little white horse and helped Lin Heng get on the horse.

"The royal horse is easy, just practice more." Cheng Muqing looked up at him, then patted his leg, "Don't be nervous, don't clamp it too tightly." She said some precautions, and followed the horse , let Lin Heng find a way to control it by himself.

"I..." Lin Heng sat on the horse alone, feeling wobbly.He squeezed the rein tightly, and asked for help from the person below him, "I can't..."

"Don't always say that you can't do it." Cheng Muqing frowned displeasedly, "Anyone can say that you can't do it, but you can't think of yourself that way. Lord, relax and do as I teach you."

Lin Heng looked around and saw that the polo field was huge, allowing the horses to run wild.

But he didn't have the courage, he swayed, and his legs couldn't help clamping the horse's back tightly.The horse may have felt pain, and barked twice in displeasure.

"My lord!"

Cheng Muqing called him.

"Yeah." Lin Heng quickly lowered his head, clutching the reins a little uneasy.

The horse was restless from being strangled, and Cheng Muqing hurriedly comforted him when he saw this.

"I'm sorry..." Lin Heng lowered his head and apologized softly.

Being a proton in Qiguo made him cautious, timid and cowardly.He also yearns to ride his horse and gallop on this polo field, walking with the wind.

But he didn't dare to raise his head, he just took a look at the too empty field, and he started to retreat in his heart.

He dare not...

"It's my first time riding a horse, and I'm very timid." Cheng Muqing jumped on the horse.

Lin Heng suddenly felt warmth behind him.

"But everyone has a first time." Cheng Muqing's hands came out from behind him, and took hold of his hand holding the rein, "But you can't stay stuck on this...drive!"

The white horse screamed excitedly, spread its legs and ran forward.

Lin Heng could feel the cold wind cutting his face, and he could also hear the wind whistling in his ears.He felt that the white horse was running fast, and the voice of the man behind him was enthusiastic.

"My lord, study hard! Watch it!"

The wind made his eyes hurt a little, and crystal tears flowed from his eyes.

"Call-"

After running for a while, Cheng Muqing stopped the reins.

"Am I riding too fast?" Cheng Muqing's voice was clear, with excitement that had not dissipated.

"No."

"Then your face is pale?" Cheng Muqing said with a smile.

"fine."

Cheng Muqing put the rein in his hands, "My lord, if you don't do anything, do you think you can't do it?"

"I……"

"My lord, take me for a run." Cheng Muqing put his hands on his waist, "We can't admit defeat."

The hand holding the rein tightened little by little, Lin Heng slowly raised his head, the wide field in front of him made his heart beat violently.Thinking about Cheng Muqing's action just now, he raised his hand.

The horse took him two steps.

"Very well, my lord, you have taken the first step."

Beside her ear was the girl's clear voice.

"My lord, go! Take me to wander around the world! Haha~" After finishing speaking, Cheng Muqing laughed, she laughed at herself for reading too many drawing books.

A certain part of his heart suddenly burst out of emotion, he flicked the rein with his arm, and the horse flew like flying.

"drive--"

The wind was whistling in his ears, his heart was beating wildly in his chest, and before his eyes were the clear blue sky and the vast and boundless land.

……

On the first day he was brought to Qiguo Palace, he saw the Qiguo Emperor.

The emperor was in his middle age, with a handsome appearance, but his eyes were very captivating.

He stood in the center of the hall, and the eunuch beside him kept pulling at the hem of his clothes, motioning him to kneel down.

But he didn't understand, why did he kneel?The Taifu said that a man only kneels down to his king and his parents.

Emperor Qiguo is neither his king nor his father.

"What's your name? How old are you?" Emperor Qi asked him.

"Lin Heng, seven years old."

He answered frankly.

"Do you know where this is?" Emperor Qiguo showed a playful smile.

"Qiguo."

"I know, why don't you kneel?"

"Why kneel?" He frowned.

"Haha~" Emperor Qiguo stood up from the high chair and walked towards him step by step, "Because this is Qiguo, and I am the monarch, you should kneel down to me."

He was puzzled.

"Kneel." Emperor Qiguo looked at his stubborn and tenacious face, and the smile on his face deepened, "I like your backbone very much... It makes me want to frustrate your spirit."

After saying that, he lifted his foot and kicked him away.

He refused to obey and stood up from the ground.

Emperor Qiguo kicked him away again.

He stood up again...

I don't know how long the cycle lasted, but he couldn't stand up anymore.

"What's the use of backbone?" Emperor Qiguo looked down at him, "Can it be eaten as food? Can it be worn as clothes? Lin Heng, if you behave yourself, I might... treat you better."

He is still unconvinced, but what he gets in exchange for his unconvinced will always be beatings, scolding, and fasting.He had tried to die, too, but each time he was unsuccessful.He can always save himself, making himself unable to live and die.

Over the long years, he has become obedient, silent and withdrawn.

But it's obviously not him, he has a bit of arrogance in his bones.He didn't like to give up, didn't like to be looked down upon, and didn't like to obey.

When telling Cheng Muqing that he can't ride well, there is another voice in his heart saying, "I want to ride, I want to ride!"

The horse ran faster and faster, and his heart beat faster and faster.

He likes this feeling, likes being bumped on horseback, like flying in the wind.

I like the happy mood at this moment, and I like this unfettered feeling.

He rode for a long time, and the horse ran for a long time before stopping.

He panted slightly, looking at the blue sky, as if something had changed.

Maybe it's the cloud?
"My lord, yes!" Cheng Muqing patted him on the shoulder, "Isn't this great? Next time, don't say that you can't do it!"

"Hmm..." Lin Heng lowered his eyes, with a smile on his lips.

"My lord, are you hungry? Do you want some wontons?" Cheng Muqing asked.

"it is good."
