Chapter 334 The Princess Wants to Play Badly 30
The Crown Princess turned around and went back to the study.
She opened the envelope and took out the thin piece of letter paper. She looked at it under the light and saw three big words on it: Yingchun Tower.
"Yingchun Tower?"
The Crown Princess narrowed her eyes and immediately called her secret guards to investigate.
The Crown Princess had many capable people under her, and the secret guards were all very powerful. They quickly traced back to his sister through the person in charge of Yingchun Tower, and then to a wealthy businessman from his sister. They followed the clues all the way and found out that the wealthy businessman's brother was the husband of a trusted subordinate of Mingjin.
After many twists and turns, the investigation finally led to Mingjin.
The Crown Princess was furious and she executed the man first and reported to the emperor later. She personally sent people to surround Yingchun Tower.
Yingchun Tower was closed during the day and was deserted, with most of the husbands still sleeping. The Crown Princess simply ordered people to break the door, and the head of the tower led people to stop them, but the Crown Princess's personal guards drew their swords and fought back.
Taking advantage of the confrontation, the others went straight to the fourth floor. Without the need for a key, several people kicked the door open together, and the secret hidden inside was instantly exposed to everyone.
The Crown Princess immediately ordered that all the contents be packed up and taken away.
Seeing that he couldn't stop them, the boss rushed forward desperately, took out a lighter and started to light the fire.
The attic suddenly fell into chaos.
Fortunately, the box was finally snatched away by the Crown Princess.
Just as the guards escorted her out of the building, Yingchun Tower turned into a sea of fire and thick smoke.
Mingnan stood on the building across the street, watching this scene, with a smile on his face.
"Oh, the show is about to begin."
Xie Wuyu approached from behind with a cup of tea in his hand, "Do you want to go down?"
"No." Mingnan took it and took a sip. It was sweet flower tea. She squinted her eyes in satisfaction. "I said I'll take you out to play today. The rest has nothing to do with me."
"Let's go out of town and ride horses."
……
Mingnan didn't know, nor did he care, how the emperor flew into a rage after the Crown Princess entered the palace, and how Mingjin apologized.
After she and Xie Wuyu had a delicious breakfast, they took a carriage out of the city and went to their largest farm, where the mountains were open and the scenery was beautiful, perfect for horse racing.
There are ready-made fine horses at the farm, each one is well-kept and extremely strong.
Mingnan personally took Xie Wuyu to choose, and with a wave of his hand, he said generously: "Pick the one you like best."
Xie Wu Yu walked from beginning to end and looked around. He saw a horse that was completely snow-white with an extremely arrogant look in its eyes.
He couldn't help but stop and reached out to touch it.
The white horse took a step back, seemingly unwillingly.
Mingnan couldn't help laughing, "This arrogance is somewhat like Xie Lang."
Xie Wuyu: “…”
He tilted his head and glared at her, "I look like a horse?"
Mingnan leaned in and kissed him, "No, you're the prettiest."
The corners of Xie Wu Yu's mouth rose uncontrollably, but he pursed them tightly.
"This one, please."
Upon hearing this, the servant serving behind immediately stepped forward and led out the white horse.
The remaining horses were all similar, so Mingnan picked the tallest one.
The two men came out of the stable and looked out, seeing a vast expanse of land and sky outside.
The grass is green, dotted with colorful flowers, swaying freely.
The mountain breeze blew from afar, bringing a fresh and pleasant scent of grass and trees.
Xie Wu Yu stood beside the horse, opened his arms and took a deep breath, letting the wind blow through his thin clothes.
It was clearly a cool breeze, but it made his blood boil.
Mingnan looked at his relaxed brows and curled his lips silently.
[At your prime, you are stuck in the backyard all day. You must be bored, right? 】
Xie Wu Yu slowly opened his eyes and tilted his head to look. The wind blew his long hair, and a strand of it covered his face.
Mingnan raised his hand to put it behind his ear and asked with a smile, "Bibi?"
Xie Wuyu was instantly inspired to fight, and nodded slightly, "How do we compete?"
"There's a river in the valley ahead, and there's a big willow tree beside the river. Let's see who gets there first."
Xie Wuyu glanced over. He couldn't see the river from here, so it must be a bit far away. "What if we win? What if we lose?"
Mingnan climbed onto the horse, pulled the reins and asked, "What do you want?"
Xie Wuyu thought for a moment, looked up and said, "If I win, give me this white horse."
"Okay, but what if I win?" Mingnan tilted his head and stared at him.
Xie Wuyu spread his hands, "What do you want?"
Mingnan thought about it seriously for a while, and his eyes suddenly lit up, "If I win, you will admit in person that you like me, how about that?"
"That's it?" Xie Wu Yu raised his eyebrows.
"Yeah." Mingnan nodded.
"Okay, let's wait and see."
Xie Wu Yu stepped on the stirrups and stepped onto the horse with his long legs.
The two looked at each other and saw the same fighting spirit in each other's eyes.
Mingnan leaned forward slightly, clenched the whip and said, "I'll count to three--"
"Three, two, one——"
The two men whipped their whips at the same time, and two horses, one black and one white, immediately rushed out, crossing the mountains like two lightning bolts.
"drive--"
The long wind blew the horse's mane and lifted the sleeves of the two men.
Mingnan was wearing a moon-white shirt today, his wide sleeves rustling in the wind, like a cloud falling into the mortal world.
Xie Wu Yu, dressed in red and fluttering like fire, walked side by side with her.
The two were evenly matched and chased each other relentlessly.
Excitement, excitement, nervousness and joy filled their chests. By the time they reached the end, it was no longer just about competing. Both of them devoted themselves to horse racing, enjoying the joy of galloping to their heart's content at this moment.
It is rare for a horse to run so fast, and when it is fast it almost looks like flying.
Mingnan couldn't help but cheer, "Good horse!"
Xie Wu Yu also laughed, his spirits high, "Lord, be careful, or you might lose in a while."
"Keep that to yourself."
Mingnan glanced at him and said, "Go!"
Xie Wu Yu chuckled, kicked the horse's belly, and the white horse rushed out like a meteor.
The sound of hurried horse hooves echoed through the valley, one after another, occasionally overlapping.
After turning a corner, the view in front of them suddenly opened up and they could vaguely hear the sound of the gurgling river.
The big willow tree was right in front of them. The two of them looked at each other at the same time. No one spoke, but they were all trying their best.
It seemed like the victory was just around the corner, but the two were still unable to determine who was the better one.
Xie Wu Yu tilted his head and glanced at Ming Nan.
Mingnan's hair was a little loose due to the violent shaking, and the strands of hair were fluttering in the wind on the sides of her face. Sweat beads were sliding down the corners of her forehead, but she didn't even bother to wipe them off. She pursed her lips tightly, and her expression was more serious than ever before.
The wide sleeves flew up, revealing a slender white wrist.
She gripped the reins tightly, her knuckles turning white.
At that moment, Xie Wu Yu seemed to be hit by something, and his heart suddenly softened.
In just a moment of distraction, Mingnan had already arrived under the tree first.
"Uu——"
Mingnan tightened the reins, and the horse raised its front hooves and neighed before stopping.
Xie Wuyu followed closely behind, let the horse walk back and forth along the river, circled back and said: "Congratulations, you won."
Mingnan sat on the horse's back to calm his breath. He glanced at him and said firmly, "You let it go."
Xie Wuyu shook his head, "No, I was distracted myself."
“Why distraction?”
