Chapter 79: Punishing scoundrels at horse racing ([-])
When the four of them were walking back, Hu Qian'er came to ask the maid to invite Ye Lingxi over, so Ye Lingxi left with the maid, and Zhao Ce also walked in that direction as if nothing had happened, pretending to be strolling around.

"I didn't call you, what are you going to do?" Ye Xingye asked a little strangely.

"Can't I go there for a stroll?" Zhao Ce argued.

"I'll go too." Ye Xingye said and caught up with Zhao Ce, and the two of them walked away together.

When Yan Fei looked over there, Luo Jinxiu came over, but before he could say anything, he was called away.Hu Yuhan called Yanfei to throw the pot, and then called Zhou Jing and Su Shi.

"Miss Luo Si likes to give banquets to the eldest son." Hu Qian'er whispered to Ye Lingxi as she watched Luo Jinxiu returning with his maid in angrily.

Ye Lingxi recalled the hostility shown to her by the fourth young lady when she first met her, and wondered whether they regarded her as a love rival...

Hu Qian'er glanced in the middle, and then gestured to a maid behind her. The maid handed the box of food she was holding to Ye Lingxi and said, "The lady specially bought this from Xingfangzhai." Princess, try the candied fruit and see if you like it." As she spoke, the maid opened the lid, and a sweet smell hit her face.

Ye Lingxi picked up a piece and tasted it, praising how delicious it was, and the maid handed the snack box to He He behind Ye Lingxi.

Hu Qian'er asked Ye Lingxi to take a few steps away and asked quietly: "Princess, what does Your Highness like to eat?"

Ye Lingxi thought for a while and replied, "Second brother likes to drink tea."

Hu Qian'er continued to ask: "What kind of tea does His Highness like to drink?"

Ye Lingxi thought about it for a while. The tea her second brother drank had all kinds of strange names. One of them, the non-bitter tea, impressed her the most. To say this was like talking nonsense.

Seeing that Ye Lingxi was not able to answer, Hu Qian'er changed the subject again, "Princess, you said before that Your Highness likes to practice calligraphy. I have a good black gold inkstone here. Princess, can you give it to Your Highness for me?"

"Okay." Ye Lingxi agreed immediately.

"Miss, Miss Su and Miss Yan are here." The maid behind reminded her.

"Princess, what we just said must not be known to others." Hu Qian'er warned. When Ye Lingxi nodded in agreement, Hu Qian'er turned around to greet the two people who were walking towards her. Yan Chuchu, who was following Su Wan, was curious. He asked, "What were sister Qian'er and the princess talking about just now?"

Hu Qian'er prevaricated: "Nothing, just chatting." Then she changed the subject and said, "Brother Yan Fei was so awesome just now. He won before I even saw him clearly."

"It's just a fluke." Zhao Ce came over and said unconvinced.

Ye Xingye also came over, holding a maroon pony in his hand.

"This pony is very docile, and its fur is very smooth. Come and touch it." Ye Xingye said and gave a demonstration first, then reached out and touched the pony's forehead along the fur.Zhao Ce slapped the horse's butt in a bad way. The pony was frightened and raised its front hooves, startling the girls. Ye Xingye quickly reined in the reins. After the pony calmed down, he could only laugh dryly to ease the scare.

Zhao Ce was feeling very proud when suddenly he was stared at by Ye Lingxi's big eyes. After his face stiffened for a moment, he turned his head and looked away guiltily.

"Your Highness, please take it away quickly, lest it go crazy again later," Hu Qian'er said.

Ye Xingye scratched his head in embarrassment and handed the pony to the boy aside to take him back to the stable.The pony was walking quietly behind the boy. Suddenly a stone hit the horse's leg, and the gong sounded. The pony became more frightened and rushed into the arena with a neighing sound. The boy also Can't hold it back.

Seeing that the pony was about to hit the big horse in front, Yanjiang pulled up the reins, and the sweaty horse jumped up, directly jumped over the pony and landed in front, with no danger.

When the pony rushed to the other side of the arena, several boys quickly gathered around and worked together to pull it back to the stable.

The people around him were all attracted by this unexpected situation on the field, and they started talking among themselves.

When Shen Ning and Mr. Luo reined in their horses and came over to ask if Yan Jiang was okay, a burly middle-aged man walked past the side of the field.

When the other person passes by, a shadow envelops them. Just by being close to this person, you can feel an evil aura, especially the pair of eyes, which are as sharp as an eagle. Ye Xingye and Zhao Ce are a little frightened when they look at it. What's more, It's the pretty girls behind them.

Qin Min rolled his eyes, then turned around and saluted Ye Xingye, then turned and left without saying anything.

After the people walked away, Zhao Ce moved to Ye Lingxi and whispered: "This man is almost forty and has not yet married a wife."

As soon as he finished speaking, Qin Min stopped and turned his face slightly. Zhao Ce was frightened and hid behind Ye Lingxi.After the other party continued to move forward, he moved out.

This time, after everyone left and was out of sight, Zhao Ce continued to say to Ye Lingxi: "This man kills without blinking an eye. Everyone in the military camp is afraid of him."

"I heard that one time he beat one of his men to death." Zhao Ce spoke so loudly that he didn't even dare to breathe. He didn't care whether it would scare others. As a result, Yan Chuchu's face changed with fright, and Ye Xingye He quickly interrupted the topic.

It was almost noon, and most people went back to their tents to change and rest.Ye Lingxi and Su Wan walked away together. When passing by a flower bush, a man suddenly jumped out and stopped in front of the four of them shamelessly. His eyes were furtively looking back and forth at Su Wan, Yan Chuchu and Hu Qian'er. The three maids quickly stopped in front of their young lady. He He and Ling Ding also blocked Ye Lingxi and shouted at her to get away.

"Didn't Miss Su ask me to come here? Why are you turning your back on me now?" Feng Ren looked at Su Wan with his eyes, looking shameless.

Su Wan was so angry that her face turned red. When she wanted to argue with him, she was afraid that the other party would say something stupid again.

Ye Lingxi didn't talk nonsense to him, picked up a branch from the ground and hit him. Feng Ren was so painful that he screamed and ran away immediately when he saw a boy coming.The boy asked what happened, and Ye Lingxi said that there were flies blocking the road just now and she chased them away.

After returning to the tent, Su Wan was so angry that tears fell down.Ye Lingxi was also angry, and thought of what Feng Ren said, thinking that someone must be doing something secretly.

At this time Luo Jinxiu came over again, Su Wan turned around and wiped her tears with a handkerchief, trying her best to act as if nothing happened, but her eye circles were still a little red.

"Is Sister Su okay?" Luo Jinxiu asked with concern, and then asked, "Who was that person just now? Does Sister Su know him?"

"I don't know him." Ye Lingxi said simply, "He is just a scoundrel. Fourth lady, please be careful not to get entangled."

Luo Jinxiu's face became a little ugly, and she said coldly: "Princess, be careful, don't fall." After saying that, she bowed slightly and left with her maid Shi Shiran.
