Why a woman?

"Miss Ling, the reason I called you here today is to ask Miss Ling to act as a form of entertainment for us, so that we can identify the war horse that gentleness has sent over. I think Miss Ling has a lot of experience in this area, I will have to trouble you to choose a good breed and use it on the imperial guards. "

Long Chen Yi was extremely polite as he ordered some people to serve tea to Ling Shuang, Fang Yu and the others. The top-grade silver needles in the teacup were exceptionally clear.

Ling Shuang slowly said: "Your Highness is too courteous, although I am not a soldier, I will definitely do my best to help with this matter."

Fang Yu took a sip of his tea and thought, what a fool, I am afraid this Crown Prince has fallen for you, this fierce horse. He never thought that the Crown Prince would join him, and the matter seemed to have become a little troublesome.

"The Miss Ling is straightforward. After drinking this cup of tea, we will go and choose a horse, but ?" Long Chen Yi glanced at Fang Yu and slowly said, "I'm very sorry. This is an important military affair after all, Second Young Master Fang."

Ling Shuang's phoenix eyes flashed with unhappiness. Wasn't this obviously giving Fang Yu an unsightly look? She was just about to flare up when Fang Yu gently pulled on her sleeve.

Ling Shuang calmed her anger, she could not refute Long Chen Yi's excuse. Right now, Fang Yu did not have a name on him, because his position in the Fang Family was extremely awkward, and because he did not receive Fang Xiu Wen's attention, he did not even have a name for himself. How could a commoner dressed in cloth possibly go to a place like the drill grounds?

Fang Yu faintly smiled towards Long Chen Yi as if he did not mind at all and said: "Your Highness, you are right. It is just that your wife thinks that it is an ordinary banquet and brought me here. I am very sorry."

Fang Yu's words were neither haughty nor humble, nor did he speak with fear and trepidation. His natural demeanor of a noble slightly surprised everyone present.

Hu Li glared at Fang Yu's face, he only wanted to give his a good look, wasn't that so? However, this guy was quite black-hearted and still needed to be dealt with properly.

Fang Yu turned and looked at Hu Li with anger in his eyes and laughed: "Hu Jun Jun Jun Jun has stared at me for such a long time, could it be that you fancy me?"

Puff! Ling Shuang spat out his tea and covered it with her sleeves.

The others were also shocked and then burst into laughter. For a moment, the reserved atmosphere in the pavilion became a lot more relaxed.

Hu Li was so angry that his eyes turned black, but he couldn't give Ling Shuang any trouble. His face had already turned the color of a pig's liver, and with a cold snort, he drank some tea.

"Fang Yu, don't be like this," Ling Shuang looked at Fang Yu with a blaming look, and said with a low voice.

Fang Yu's heart sunk, the ridicule on his face turned into ice. He, Fang Yu, was such a stingy man, stingy to the point that he wouldn't allow others to covet the person he liked.

Like it? Fang Yu's heart trembled. So he actually liked Ling Shuang this much?

"Ling Shuang! Get the hell out here! " A clear and melodious voice pierced through the pavilion as a gaudy figure burst through the silk curtain.

It was a girl about sixteen or seventeen years old. He wore a flowery dress that was unique to Wuhuan, and his hair was tied up in a small braid with a ruby jade button. The round face had fair skin, a high nose bridge, and cut temples. The almond eyes were round and cute.

Behind her was a young man dressed in the garb of a Wuhuan general. She had sharp eyebrows and had a pair of starry eyes. A pair of ice-cold eagle eyes flashed with an amber dark light, as her gaze shot straight at Ling Shuang who was seated on the bed.

Ling Shuang noticed that the sharp gaze suddenly turned, and her hand subconsciously touched her waist.

Crap! The Imperial Sword was not by her side. The Emperor Chengping warned him to make sure that she protected the Imperial Sword carefully. Ling Shuang knew that the Emperor was serious this time, so she did not dare to bring the Imperial Sword along as well.

But the man in front of him was clearly the one who had sent the assassin to kill him, and he actually openly appeared in the Crown Prince Palace today?

Fang Yu also recognized him, the jade cup in his hand was tightly clenched, but his expression did not change at all.

"Princess A Ya and General Helian are here too? I'm sorry, someone! "Seat!" Long Chen Yi smiled, but did not move a bit.

Although A Ya was also a princess, she was a defeated princess of Wuhuan, and one who had come to reconcile with her. As for the fellow with hawk eyes, he was Helian Ming's eldest son, He Lian Feng. He had inherited the position as the great general of Wuhuan and was specially escorting the princess to their marriage ceremony.

Ling Shuang never thought that she would meet Helian Ming's son here. The reason he wanted to assassinate him was probably because of the matter of Helian Ming being defeated by her and being forced to commit suicide, right?

However, this brat had always assassinated her without anyone noticing. She did not have any weakness to make his evil deeds public, but her caution had been raised to the highest level.

A Ya simply did not care about what Long Chen Yi said. Obviously, he had also seen Ling Shuang and thus, he immediately rushed over.

Ling Shuang slowly stood up and looked at the Wuhuan princess who was dressed in such a gorgeous and gaudy dress. What was this girl trying to do? Although it was she who had defeated Wuhuan and caused her to come to the marriage alliance, victory or defeat was a common occurrence.

Fang Yu turned his body slightly, his entire body tensed up. If this A Ya dared to hurt Ling Shuang in the slightest, he did not care if he would expose his own martial arts.

"You ? You are Ling Shuang? " A Ya suddenly took a step forward, but the whip in his hand had been untied from his waist with a swoosh. The whip was pointed at Ling Shuang, and her voice carried a little sadness and panic ? Shy?

Ling Shuang's head immediately hurt. They were both women, why did it feel like Princess A Ya was looking at her weirdly? It was as if she, Ling Shuang, was some ungrateful man.

When A Ya was at the palace, she had heard people call him Ling Shuang many times. She was rather curious about the people who called for her to find ways and means to get her portrait.

Looking at Ling Shuang's portrait every day, even to the point of forgetting to eat and sleep, it was only when the news of Wuhuan's defeat spread and Helian Ming killed himself did Ling Shuang's secret spread throughout Wuhuan.

But she never believed that the reason she came to the marriage alliance was to demand an explanation from Ling Shuang. Seeing this time, she was actually more handsome than the one in the painting. But looking at her flat Adam's apple, she felt a heart-wrenching pain.

"Ling Shuang! I... I want to fight with you! " A Ya almost cried.

Ling Shuang was really dumbstruck, and was about to say a few words of explanation but did not expect A Ya's whip to instantly wrap around her and throw her out of the pavilion. Ling Shuang somersaulted in the air, lightly tapped the jade railings on the bridge above the Lotus Pond. Her movements were extremely beautiful, and the people in the pavilion were all extremely breathtaking.

"Little girl, if you don't want to vent your anger, then I'll play with you!" Being swung like this by A Ya, Ling Shuang also started to feel somewhat angry.
