Queen's New Clothes

Chapter 50
Coming out of Hanyuxuan, Su Xi walked in front, there was a distance of seven or eight steps between Wei Feng, her steps were a little hasty, as if deliberately avoiding the people behind.I saw her pretty face blushing, she pursed her lower lip slightly, and wanted to wipe her mouth with her hands, but since Steward Zhu and the maid were both present, she had no choice but to give up.

On the other hand, Wei Yan walked behind like a leisurely stroll, with a contented smile on his lips.

When they reached the second gate, Su Xi suppressed the anger in her heart, knelt towards Wei Feng and said, "I'm sorry to see you off soon, Mr. Wei, please go slowly."

Wei Feng nodded and said, "Miss Su Jiu, please come back."

Pretend to be fake.Su Xi said quietly in her heart.

Seeing the little girl biting her lip, Wei Yan looked angrily, her thoughts were written all over her face.He couldn't help but bend his thin lips, his smile was obvious.

Su Xi watched Wei Feng leave, then turned back to her yard, and asked Tinghe to bring a cup of mint tea as soon as she got back to the house.As she rinsed her mouth, she thought, Wei Feng is just a duplicity. She just said that she didn't want to ride a horse, but he forced her to agree, and he used that method again...

When Su Xi thought that his mouth was full of Wei Yan's saliva, she couldn't help but puckered her mouth in disgust. He was a liar, and nothing he said could be believed.

Just now Su Xi asked angrily—didn't he say that if she didn't like it in the future, he would ask her opinion?

Wei Yan actually said boldly: "Yes, but I didn't say that I would definitely adopt it."

Listen to what this is called, Su Xi is still very angry when she thinks about it now.

Tomorrow she will not go horseback riding in the back mountain, not to mention whether she wants to go or not, how to pass the big brother's test is a problem.Even though she is in another hospital and her parents are not around, Su Xi still has to report to her elder brother when she goes out, so she can't tell her elder brother that she is going out with Wei Shizi, right?

So Su Xi thought it was impossible, so she didn't take it to heart.

Unexpectedly, on the second day, Su Li offered to take them to the back mountain to ride horses.

Su Li said: "Your Majesty will organize the autumn in a short time. The weather in these two days is fine, just suitable for practicing riding and archery. I have made an appointment with Wei Shizi to meet at the back of the mountain today. Do you want to go together?"

Su Xi shook her head subconsciously: "My brother is riding a horse with others, so I won't go, I don't know how to ride anyway."

Su Li said: "The sixth younger brother will also go with me, and I can let the sixth younger brother teach you. You can bring your family with you in autumn, don't you want to ride a horse and go for a walk on the grassland?"

To be honest, Su Xi really wanted to go.I heard that the scenery near the northwest paddock is magnificent and the air is pleasant. Compared with the carved beams and painted buildings of the houses in the capital, it has a more heroic and uninhibited flavor.It's just that when Su Xi thought that Wei Feng was also in the back mountain, she had to stop thinking about it.

Forget it, Su Xi told herself that she can learn to ride a horse whenever she wants, and she doesn't care about the moment...

After seeing off the eldest and sixth brothers, Su Xi returned to her yard.

Not long after, a servant wearing coarse cloth and short brown came in and said to Su Xi: "Miss Nine, the uncle arranged for a carriage and said that you should go to the back mountain immediately."

Su Xi put down the book in her hand, and asked in surprise, "Did you say something?"

The servant shook his head and said: "The uncle didn't say anything, it seems that it is an important matter."

Su Xi thought what happened, didn't think much, got up and followed the servant out of the courtyard.A vermilion lacquered carriage with a flat top was parked at the door. It was indeed the style of the Su Mansion. Su Xi pulled up her embroidered gold skirt and stepped on the pedals to get on the carriage. As soon as she entered the carriage, she saw a person sitting inside.She was startled at first, and after seeing the man's face clearly, she turned around and was about to get out of the carriage.

Hearing a low laugh, Wei Yan held her slender wrist and ordered to the outside: "Let's go."

Su Xi shook her hand angrily, but couldn't.Instead, when she stood up suddenly, her head hit the roof of the car with a "bang", the pain made her eyes glisten and tears glistened.

Wei Yan took her into his arms, smiled and gently rubbed her painful place, and said, "What are you in a hurry for? Can I eat you up?"

Su Xi was tearful, not wanting to show weakness in front of Wei Yan, so she bit her lip abruptly and remained silent.After a while, he couldn't help but choked up and asked, "Why are you?"

Wei Wei raised his eyebrows, and said helplessly: "Yesterday we clearly agreed to ride a horse together, but someone wanted to release pigeons. I had no choice but to come and catch them myself."

After the pain passed, Su Xi realized that she was sitting in Wei Feng's arms. She quickly hid aside, looked at him and said, "Who made an agreement with you? I never agreed to it from the beginning to the end. You are about to get people to stop, I have to go back." Thinking of something, he frowned and asked: "Is the boy who sent the message just now also yours?"

Wei Yan smiled, noncommittal.

Su Xi got angry, "How many eyeliners have you planted around me?"

Wei Yan sat leisurely, and did not answer her directly: "Not much, you will find out in the future."

Su Xi originally wanted to ask her eldest brother if something really happened, but after thinking about it, it was just an excuse for Wei Yan to trick her out.If something really happened to the elder brother, he would definitely not assign a little-known servant to pass on the news.

After walking for a quarter of an hour, the carriage finally arrived at the back mountain.

The carriage stopped at an inconspicuous place, and before getting off the carriage, Wei Yan said to her, "Go and pick out a docile horse, and I'll go find you later."

Su Xi hurriedly said: "Sixth brother will teach me how to ride a horse, I don't need you to teach..."

Wei Yan looked at her and said, "Youyou."

Su Xi thought he had listened to what she said, so she didn't continue.

Unexpectedly, the next moment, Wei Yan leaned over and kissed the corner of her lips, coaxing in a low voice, "Be obedient."

Su Xi's cheeks blushed, before she recovered, she saw Wei Yan get off the carriage with a smile on his lips.

When they arrived at the racecourse, Su Li was very surprised to see her, "Youyou, didn't you stay at home?"

Su Xi rubbed her cheek embarrassingly, and said, "After thinking about it, I still wanted to learn how to ride a horse, so I asked someone to prepare a carriage and come here."

Su Li smiled, without any doubt: "I'll take you to the horse selection right now."

Su Xi agreed, and followed Su Li to the stables.Unexpectedly, as soon as they entered, they saw Lu Huishu and Lu Jianghuai brother and sister.

The Lu brothers and sisters also came to the western suburbs to escape the summer heat.Lu Huishu was very pleasantly surprised to see Su Xi, and hurriedly called "Youyou".

Ever since Lu Huishu knew Su Xi's nickname, she was quite fond of calling her by that name.

Su Xiying stepped forward and said, "Sister Shu." She looked aside and said, "Mr. Lu."

Lu Jianghuai was wearing a Hu suit today, with broad shoulders, narrow waist and long legs, outlining a vigorous figure.He was still chatting with Lu Huishu just now, but when he saw Su Xi, he couldn't speak anymore, and after thinking for a long time, he said, "Miss Su Jiu is also coming to ride a horse?"

Su Xi nodded with a smile. She was very happy to meet Lu Huishu here, and said frankly, "It's just that I don't know how to ride a horse, and I need Brother Six to teach me. I don't know if Mr. Lu can pick a horse? I want to pick one." A gentler horse."

Lu Jianghuai was extremely happy, and immediately said: "Of course."

At the side, Lu Huishu secretly smiled, and cast a teasing look at her brother.She took Su Xi's hand, led her to the stables, and said, "Little boy, why don't I teach you how to ride a horse? Your sixth brother is a man, so it's inconvenient anyway. I'll teach you how to ride a horse. I guarantee you a day." can learn.”

Su Xi had seen Lu Huishu's riding skills before. When she raced horses with Mr. Wanping Weng that day, it was extremely thrilling to watch.Now that she heard that she was going to teach herself, she said gratefully: "Really? But will it cause trouble for Sister Shu?"

Lu Huishu said: "What's the trouble? It's too late for me to be happy to accept a disciple like you."

On the other side, Lu Jianghuai quickly picked out a medium-sized Datong horse, led it to Su Xi and said, "This kind of horse is docile and easy to tame. It is suitable for beginners like Miss Su Jiu to ride."

Su Xi took the rein from Lu Jianghuai's hand, at first he didn't dare to get close to it, but when he saw that the horse didn't show any special reaction, he boldly touched its mane.The horse was really docile, flicked its tail, and accepted Su Xi's touch. She raised her face and said with a smile, "Thank you, Brother Lu."

Lu Jianghuai stared at her smiling face in a daze, and after a while he hurriedly came back to his senses and said, "You're welcome..."

Then Lu Huishu and Lu Jianghuai also picked their own horses.

Su Xi got on the horse's back, but at first she didn't dare to wave the rein, she just held on tightly to the saddle in front of her, unable to move an inch.

Lu Huishu carefully instructed her not to be afraid, "Youyou, don't be afraid, I will follow you."

Lu Jianghuai was going to practice horseback riding far away, but he also stayed behind and followed Su Xi silently.

Su Xi held the reins and walked a few steps. The horse that Lu Jianghuai had chosen for her was good, and it carried her very safely.Gradually, she became more courageous, and started to let the horse run away. The wind rustled in her ears, and she ran faster and faster. She only felt refreshed, and the fear just now disappeared without a trace. .

After half an hour, Su Xi was able to ride by herself.

Lu Huishu followed closely behind her head: "Youyou, there is a river ahead, let's go for a walk by the river."

Su Xi nodded and said yes, turned the horse's head unskillfully, and followed to the other side.

Lu Huishu praised: "Both my brother and I were taken aback. I didn't expect you to learn so fast. It took only half a day, and you have almost learned it."

Su Xi smiled cutely: "Sister Shu taught me well."

It wasn't that Su Xi deliberately flattered her, Lu Huishu followed her step by step, worried that something might happen to her, and when she panicked, Lu Huishu followed her to comfort her.Without Lu Huishu, she really wouldn't be able to learn so fast.

Soon they reached the river, and after a few people walked along the river bank for a while, Lu Huishu's horse stopped and bowed his head to drink water, and Su Xi stopped in front of her and waited for her.

Suddenly the horse under him moved, as if stimulated by something, neighed, and ran forward without warning.

Su Xi was caught off guard, and only had time to hold the rein tightly before being carried forward by the horse below her.

The horse ran so fast that Su Xi was almost knocked off the horse's back, only to hear Lu Huishu hurriedly called "Young" behind her, but she couldn't hear what was said behind her, and could only hear the whistling wind in her ears.

Su Xi's mind was blank. At this time, she didn't know how to react at all. At first, she was able to hold the rein tightly, but after being bumped by the horse, she couldn't even hold the rein. She could only instinctively crawl on the horse's neck , grabbed the horse's mane, and closed his eyes tightly.

Su Xi thought to herself that this is the end, if she is knocked off by a horse, she will be disabled even if she does not die, what will happen to her in the future...

"Miss Su!" Lu Jianghuai chased after her, and lashed his horsewhip several times in an attempt to close the distance with Su Xi.

It's just that Su Xi's Datong horse is docile and docile, and its legs are not bad, and it doesn't lose to Lu Jianghuai's good horse in running.

Lu Jianghuai chased after him for a long time but failed to catch up. From behind, he saw an inconspicuous bug lying on the hind legs of Su Xi's horse. He fixed his eyes and felt horrified.He has seen this kind of worm, and it likes to suck the blood of animals the most. If a horse is stung by it, it will run non-stop until it dies from exhaustion.

It's not to blame him and Lu Huishu for being careless, but this kind of insect usually grows in swamps, who would have thought it would appear here?

Lu Jianghuai didn't care to think about it, and continued to chase forward at high speed.

Su Xi's tears were all dried by the wind, and she was quite desperate.She could no longer grasp the horse's mane with both hands, and when she was about to let go, suddenly there was a person's weight behind her, and then a pair of hands pulled her into a broad embrace, holding the rein in front of her, moving skillfully Control the direction in which the horse runs.

Su Xi's mind was buzzing, but she could still hear an unhurried voice beside her ears: "Didn't you tell me that I will teach you how to ride a horse? Why are you still disobedient?"

At this time, Su Xi couldn't control so much, she clung to Wei Feng's neck tightly, buried her head in the socket of his neck, tears streaming down warmly, "Cousin Tingzhou, help me..."

There was a slight smile on Wei Wei's lips, and he wanted to raise his hand to rub the little girl's head, but unfortunately he couldn't free his hand, so he just said, "Youyou, hold me tight."

Later, Lu Jianghuai turned around a hillside, only to see lush and dense trees in front of him, and there was no sign of Su Xi.There was still a fork in the road ahead of Biansheng, and he was not sure which way Su Xi took.
