Chapter 191
The queen looked a little surprised. The princess of Yi country came to her for some reason, she didn't simply think that the princess came to greet her, the queen of Chen country.

Thinking about getting the nanny next to her to welcome people in, the door squeaked, and Pingting, who was dressed up a bit, walked in with Princess Xiyue in an ordinary palace dress.

"Xiyue has met the empress." After saluting respectfully, Xiyue raised her head and looked at the empress in front of her with a smile.

The empress raised her hand to signal him to get up, and naturally a nanny stepped forward to make some tea, removed the dim sum just now and replaced it with a few more hearty dishes.

The two chatted a few words, ate some cakes together, and after Xiyue asked for warmth for a while, until the end of a cup of spiced jasmine tea, the maid behind her handed over the box that had been in her arms for a long time.

Xiyue opened the two boxes on the table respectively, and pointed to a jade pendant carved from beautiful jade, "Ma'am, this is the jade king species picked from the Yushan Mountain of Yi Kingdom. Look at the light green floating jade on the jade body. It will disappear, and it is a treasure that nourishes the face."

Pointing to the box next to it, the transparent glass bottle inside contained a pink crystalline paste, "This is the crabapple honey brewed by Xiyue himself. It is the dewdrops on the first layer of crabapple in the morning, and then mixed with dozens of beauty herbs. It took one month to develop, including several kinds of rare medicinal materials that Xiyue brought from Yi Kingdom, and now even Yi Kingdom is hard to find, a total of two small bottles were brewed, and people quickly sent them back to the Yi Kingdom Palace to give to the queen. One bottle and the other bottle are all given to the empress."

The queen glanced at the two boxes on the table, if there are countless other treasures in the Chen Kingdom's palace, there is no shortage of them, but as a woman, as a woman, she always thinks that there are too few and not too many.

Especially this crabapple honey, it sounds exciting.

Thinking so, but the empress doesn't really believe in Princess Xiyue, she thinks that the emperor of Yi Kingdom may have ulterior motives in sending Xiyue here, but the two countries have already signed an alliance agreement, and as a queen, she naturally won't do it because she doesn't have the heart. The suspicion of the evidence offends Princess Xiyue who is the representative of the friendship between the two countries.

There was a graceful and gentle smile on the queen's face, "Princess, you are too polite. As the queen of Kingdom Chen, I am the owner of this place. How can I just accept the princess's heavy gift?"

The queen's intentions were obvious. If Princess Xiyue didn't mention the purpose of her trip, she would naturally not be passive with her gifts.

Seeing this, Princess Xiyue lowered her head in embarrassment, her exquisite jade hands were tangled in the hem of her clothes, and she murmured hesitantly, "Xiyue indeed has something to ask from the queen, and she also hopes that the queen will give Xiyue a gift." The queen had a puzzled look on her face, she bit her lips and mustered up the courage to explain, but her words were broken because of embarrassment, "I met His Royal Highness the Crown Prince that day in Xiyue, and His majesty is so impressive..." Then she continued. Lowering his head, he squeezed out the water with a blushing face.

At this point, the empress fully understands that the concubine princess of the Yi Kingdom loves the crown prince, so she came to please her, the empress mother?
"It's really rare for a princess to have such a heart for the prince, but even though I am His Royal Highness's mother, I can't control the prince's mind..."

"Xiyue won't tire the empress so much. You just need to tell the prince a little bit about his preferences, such as where he likes to go. Xiyue just wants to hide and get to know the prince."

Although the queen was not very happy that the crown prince had too much involvement with this unknown princess, it was not easy to refute her face. She picked up a few key points and said, "His Royal Highness likes to collect calligraphy and painting since childhood, especially the century-old calligrapher of Chen Kingdom. The paintings of Qi Yu and Tang Rong. The places I often go to..."

Seeing the Queen's tone, the nurse next to her turned her head to look at herself, and took a step forward to report what she had observed in daily life, "Go back to Madam, His Royal Highness often rides horses at the Royal Stud Farm not far from the Imperial Palace."

"Well, the prince likes equestrianism very much. Princess Xiyue should be able to find him there."

"Xiyue thanked the empress." Xiyue got up immediately after hearing the words, and bowed to thank her briskly, "Then Xiyue will take my leave first." Saying that, she couldn't wait to back out.

From the beginning to the end, she showed the attitude of a little girl yearning for her lover. Even if the empress had doubts, she never thought that the main purpose of Princess Xiyue coming to Yi Kingdom was to get close to the prince, and then find a way to control him. It was used by the Yi Kingdom.

The royal horse training ground opened at the foot of the mountain.

The black sweat-blooded BMW walked like flying, carrying the man on horseback galloping in the vast enclosed racecourse. The man was dressed in a black suit, with a white jade ribbon around his waist to tighten his perfect figure, and black riding boots with gold rims stepped on In the stirrups, tighten the belly of the horse from time to time to achieve a faster speed.

The lush and year-round green trees on the mountain brought cool breezes, blowing over the man's handsome angular features, pulling a head of black hair into the wind, three thousand black hair fluttering, dancing in an indescribably valiant demeanor. Ling Ran's unapproachable aura emanating from it can be felt even if you are far away.Princess Xiyue, who was walking from a distance, saw this scene, her heart was shaken, and she walked towards this side at a faster pace.

The prince rode the horse and continued to run around the racecourse for several laps. He felt that the irritability of the past few days was relieved in the rapid leap, so the horse under him walked to the stable, pulled the rein, and the black horse stopped and jumped. Jump off the horse.

He took the handkerchief handed over by the attendant and cleaned his hands carefully. He looked up and saw a bright red figure slowly approaching.

When the woman came closer, Dongfang Xufang could clearly see that the person who came had graceful features, a bright red dress wrapped her exquisite figure, and her heroic spirit was full of indescribable charm. She was Princess Xiyue from the Kingdom of Yi. His face, which was already expressionless, became even more gloomy.

Princess Xiyue did not miss the flash of amazement in Dongfang Xu's eyes, and there was a little pride hidden between Liu's brows. Seeing the prince's calm face as usual, Yingying stepped forward, saluted and got up and said, "I didn't expect His Royal Highness to be here, Xiyue was born in Yi Kingdom, she liked the feeling of being on horseback since she was a child, she misses not riding a horse for a while when she came to Chen Kingdom, she specifically asked the Emperor of Chen Kingdom that there is a horse training ground here and then came here."

While she was speaking, she saw that the prince was still staring at her calmly and coldly as before, her eyes turned, and the horse behind the prince who was about to be led to the stable by the attendants lit up, and walked over.The jade hand touched the horse's mane, looked at the blood-red sweat stains on the palm of his hand and said happily, "Such a purebred sweat-blooded BMW is really rare, is it the prince's horse?"

Immediately, as if thinking of something, he wiped the blood and sweat from his palms with the handkerchief handed over by the maid, and turned to the prince, "Your Highness has such a fine horse, so he must be very good at equestrian skills. Can you teach Xiyue how to ride a horse?"

The crown prince gave her a cold look, "Yi Kingdom civilized the world with war horses, presumably the princess's equestrian skills are not bad, this crown prince will not make a fool of himself."

Princess Xiyue glanced at him, thinking in her heart that every time she saw her, she would always avoid her. Sooner or later, she would make him fall in love with her.

Secretly making up her mind, Xiyue didn't seem to feel Dongfang Xu's indifferent attitude, and she wasn't angry, so she picked up horses in the nearby stable.

Dongfang Xu has been keeping a close eye on her actions in the stable, not missing a single action, for fear that she will do something bad in the blink of an eye. After all, Yi Kingdom and Chen Kingdom seem to live in peace on the surface, but they have been fighting secretly Constantly, the war horses in the racecourse are the best in Chen Kingdom, if they are accidentally tricked by someone, it will be a huge loss to Chen Kingdom's combat effectiveness.

Then I saw Princess Xiyue coming out leading a white horse that had been chosen. Just after she left the stable, she waited for the attendant to put on the saddle. She held the handrail of the saddle with her jade hand and jumped onto the horse's back. Practice often.

Dongfang Xu looked at it and had to admit that there was a glint of admiration in his eyes, but he didn't know if he was going to ride it later, whether it would be worthy of the handsome horse riding action.

Princess Xiyue wholeheartedly wanted to win the heart of His Highness the Crown Prince, so naturally she would not disappoint him.Sit up straight, hold the reins tightly, clamp the horse's belly with both legs, and the horse under him lifts its hooves and starts to run. Ears, galloping like lightning, a bright red outfit rustling in the wind, black hair fluttering wantonly, her petite body half bent on the horse's back, and after going around half a circle, she turned to face Dongfang Xu, Dongfang Xu couldn't help but Looking from afar, I saw the woman with picturesque features, smiling sweetly, a pair of beautiful eyes watching him like a star sucking his soul in, the horse galloped rapidly, getting closer and closer to him, and the breathtaking beautiful eyes also become increasingly clear.
Suddenly, the war horse under the woman raised its hooves in the air, roared and struggled, and panic flashed in the eyes of the person opposite, followed by a scream, and the whole person was thrown away by the war horse below.

"what--"

Dongfang Xu didn't have time to think about it, he rushed up, jumped up, quickly caught the red beauty in mid-air, wrapped his arms around his slender waist, embraced the soft beauty, and landed slowly.

Two seductive blushes appeared on Princess Xiyue's tender cheeks, her small diamond-shaped mouth was slightly open and she gasped in shock, her plump breasts rose and fell with the panting. conspicuous.

"Xiyue thanks His Highness the Crown Prince for saving me." The breezy voice was filled with shyness, Princess Xiyue's eyes drooped slightly, her small face approached the chest of the acquaintance in front of her, and the man's heartbeat pounded against the chest. In her ears, she felt a little proud.

Dongfang Xu was taken aback when he heard the sound, and when he realized the ambiguous posture of the two, he was embarrassed, and quickly let go of the woman in his arms, "Hey, the prince has important things to do, so let's go first." He turned around quickly, walk away.

"Princess, are you okay?" Xinlan, the maid next to Hou, saw the prince leaving, and hurried forward to check if Princess Xiyue was injured. In addition, the people at the racecourse were also apologizing, "It's a small mistake, I didn't check for the princess in time. For the situation of the war horse, please punish the princess."

The steward at the side kept ordering people to check on the mad horses, to find out the reason so as not to disturb other nobles in the future.

"There is no serious problem in this palace. The temperament of livestock is changeable. No one can predict it. You all get up." After Princess Xiyue replied to Xinlan and the others, she put her jade hands in her sleeves and secretly put away her fingertip clips. A silver needle held by the horse, and the horse's madness is also the function of this silver needle.

Looking up at the tall and tall figure that was fading away in the distance, Dongfang Xu rescued her as expected.From this point of view, he will belong to her sooner or later, thinking of Princess Xiyue slightly raised the corners of her lips and smiled deeply.

On the other side, Dongfang Xu returned to his own palace. As soon as he entered the main hall, he saw the scroll of calligraphy and painting on the table. When he opened it, it turned out that it was Qi Yu's Song of Lan Ting and Tang Rong's picture of Five Tigers Descending the Mountain that he had wanted for a long time. He casually asked The attendant asked, "Who sent this?"

Could it be that the children of those ministers knew his preferences and sent them to make friends.

"Back to the prince, these were sent by the people around Princess Xiyue, saying that they are for the prince to enjoy." The attendant replied cautiously.

Dongfang Xu's mind suddenly appeared in the scene of the horse training ground just now, the beautiful woman, and the crazy horse.
He couldn't think of Princess Xiyue's purpose for a while, if it was a simple marriage, there was absolutely no need to create such a coincidence, and he tried his best to find these things to suit his liking, thinking that all the horses in the training ground were in charge of a special person, every horse The horses were taken good care of, and there was never any madness. Then they boldly guessed that maybe the accident just now was something that someone expected.

Thinking about it this way, Princess Yi's mind and purpose became even more unpredictable.

Dongfang Xu's eyes darkened, and he ordered in a deep voice, "Come here, return these things in full!"
