C22 Horror on the Horseback

Hearing Lin Ruo Yin's words, Lin Ruo Yun was furious. In her opinion, this Lin Ruo Yin was simply unreasonable and made people speechless. Just as she was about to say something, she heard a light laugh behind her.

"Third brother is in a good mood today. You must have had a great time with the beauty today." When Nan Gong Jin heard the voice, he knew that it was Nan Gong Qian. He turned his horse around and looked at the person who came.

Lin Ruo Yin was startled when she saw Nan Gong Qian. She seemed to understand why the plan was set up today. It was likely that Nan Gong Jin was going to make a move against Nan Gong Qian. Nan Gong Qian was the Crown Prince of the Southern Phoenix Kingdom. However, after he had a serious illness, he became weak and sick. However, he was the most difficult person to deal with among all the princes. It was because he was wise and cunning.

If it wasn't for the fact that his body was already like an arrow at the end of the bow, he would have died a long time ago. It was likely that Nan Gong Jin would be dreaming if he wanted to obtain the throne. Today, Nan Gong Jin suddenly sent an invitation. It was likely that the invitation was fake. He had figured out Nan Gong Qian's movements and wanted to plot against him.

With Nan Gong Qian's physique, not to mention falling off the horse, he would have been injured by the hooves of the horse. Nan Gong Jin was indeed sinister.

"What did big brother say? The third daughter of the Lin Family is as beautiful as a flower. I was only fortunate enough to invite her to travel together." When Nan Gong Jin saw Nan Gong Qian's words, he also smiled and replied, "Since we are fortunate enough to meet, why don't we ride together?"

"Alright, but I'm afraid that my weak body will delay your trip." Seeing this, the corner of Nan Gong Qian's mouth curled up as he agreed. He was a man who loved horses, but unfortunately, his body was weak, so he could only ride a horse and stroll around.

After Nan Gong Qian selected a horse, the crowd lined up and prepared to set off together. Only Lin Ruo Yin sat on a short horse and walked by herself. It was obvious that she was showing off her poor horse skills.

Nan Gong Qian couldn't help but glance at Lin Ruo Yin, but when he heard Nan Gong Jin calling out to him, he immediately galloped over. When the crowd gathered, they saw Lin Ruo Yun suddenly whip her horse, and the horse immediately galloped out like an arrow.

Nan Gong Jin and Lin Ruo Xi didn't leave immediately. One reason was that they didn't want to offend the Crown Prince.

The other reason was that they had their own thoughts. If Nan Gong Jin didn't say anything, Lin Ruo Xi wanted to get closer to Nan Gong Qian. After all, in her opinion, although Nan Gong Qian was weak, he was still the Crown Prince. The possibility of him becoming the Crown Prince was the highest, so how could she let him go?

When they returned to Lin Ruo Yin's side, Lin Ruo Yin suddenly said, "Your Highness Crown Prince, Ruo Yin is ignorant, but there is one thing that I don't understand. Could Your Highness help me to understand it?" The reason why she said this was that she didn't want Nan Gong Qian to be injured. The enemy of an enemy is a friend. If Nan Gong Qian was to help, it would definitely be twice the result with half the effort.

"Oh? Is there something you don't understand?" Nan Gong Qian looked at Lin Ruo Yin with a strange expression. However, he was a little tired after all the rounds, so he got off the horse and walked to Lin Ruo Yin's side.

Before he could speak, a horse suddenly dashed out and happened to step on the horse that he had just ridden. The horse was startled and the three horses were all in a mess. The neighing sounds rose and fell. Nan Gong Jin and Lin Ruo Xi did not expect such a situation to happen. Lin Ruo Yin, on the other hand, calmly pulled Nan Gong Qian a few steps back and coincidentally entered the protection circle of the guards that Nan Gong Qian had quickly rushed over.

Lin Ruo Yun was the one who caused the chaos. She did not expect her horse to suddenly go crazy for no reason. Even she could not control it. However, she did not know that the reason her horse went crazy was because Nan Gong Jin fed the grass to every horse in the stable. After the horses ran for a long time, the grass had completely integrated into the horse's body, causing the horse to go crazy.

The horse's struggle became more and more intense. The entire horse was in a vertical state. The horse that Nan Gong Qian was riding directly crashed into Nan Gong Jin's horse. Nan Gong Jin was unable to control it in time and was knocked off the horse's back. The horse kicked back fiercely, kicking Nan Gong Jin to the side of his mouth. It was obvious that his internal organs were injured.

As for Lin Ruo Xi and Lin Ruo Yun, they were both women, so how could they withstand it? They were both thrown off their horses one after the other. Fortunately, Nan Gong Qian's guards managed to control the horses in time. Lin Ruo Yun only had a few scratches on her cheeks.

Lin Ruo Xi, on the other hand, was in a much more miserable state. She fell off the horse's back and the hooves brushed past her face. The iron palm of the hooves actually left a bloody scar on her cheek. Even if her face was cured, there would still be a scar.

Nan Gong Qian was obviously not expecting such a situation to happen. Lin Ruo Yun, this stupid woman, had actually messed up this matter. Now, even he could not protect himself, but Nan Gong Qian was safe and sound.

The three of them were helped up and looked at Lin Ruo Yin with hatred and blame in their eyes. In the eyes of the Lin sisters, Lin Ruo Yin was the one who had her face ruined, but now, it was them who were hurt. How could they not hate her?

Nan Gong Jin, on the other hand, was much more rational. In his eyes, Lin Ruo Yin had actually ‘accidentally' saved Nan Gong Qian, causing his plan to go down the drain. He had even lost his wife and his soldiers.

Only Nan Gong Qian turned around and looked at Lin Ruo Yin with a profound gaze. It seemed like Lin Ruo Yin was being protected by him, but in reality, it was Lin Ruo Yin who was guiding him from the beginning to the end.

How did she know?

Lin Ruo Yin looked at Nan Gong Qian's questioning gaze and smiled sweetly. She was like a cunning fox, causing Nan Gong Qian to be stunned on the spot.

A few days later, the Lin Family suddenly received an imperial decree from the palace. The imperial decree stated that the women of the Great Academy were to enter the palace outside the city to meet the Empress. Lin Ruo Xi was injured and could not move forward, so Grand Lady took Lin Ruo Yun and Lin Ruo Yin with her.

Lin Ruo Yin recalled that in her previous life, she had always heard that the back garden of the palace outside the city was even more beautiful than the imperial garden in the Imperial Palace. At that time, she had always wanted to take a look, but after marrying Nan Gong Jin, she had devoted herself to his grand plan and didn’t have the time to come here to take a look.

Thinking about the past, she hated Nan Gong Jin even more.

"Did you guys hear? The real purpose of the Queen's grand feast this time?" Just as she passed a corner, Lin Ruo Yin heard a suppressed voice.

The real purpose? Lin Ruo Yin originally did not understand why the Empress would do this. Hearing their discussion, she became interested. She quickly walked a few steps and quietly hid behind a fake mountain. She could hear their voices.
