Qing Lingyi raised her hand and subconsciously protected Meng Si behind her.
But I heard someone laughing: "Mrs. Cheng is really kind-hearted. She was deceived and used, but she still wanted to protect her."
Qing Lingyi looked over and frowned: "Miss Zhenzhen?"
The visitor paused and immediately denied: "Miss Zhenzhen, you got the wrong person!"
"Why do you cover your face with a veil?" Qing Lingyi asked.
“……”
"Miss Zhenzhen, you haven't even changed your clothes."
Ming Zhen was furious: "I told you, I'm not Miss Zhen Zhen!"
Qing Lingyi reluctantly gave her some face and did not continue to expose her. She only asked: "So this girl, why did you send someone to stop us?"
"Of course I want to compete with you in riding and shooting!"
"Who will compete with me?"
"Of course it's me!"
"Who are you?"
"bright……"
The word "瓁" almost popped out, and Mingzhen quickly covered her mouth.
Qing Lingyi smiled and said nothing.
Mingzhen was so angry that she stamped her feet: "Cunning!"
Qing Lingyi smiled lightly and said: "Miss Zhenzhen, I told you, I don't know how to ride and shoot. Let this farce end here."
She turned her head slightly: "Si Rujian!"
A dark shadow flew out of the darkness.
"Don't kill him, just knock him down." Qing Lingyi ordered.
"Okay." Si Ru's sword sound was calm.
Mingzhen smiled sarcastically: "As long as I defeat you, you are just a guard! One person can beat me so much..."
Before she could finish her words, black shadows rose and fell, and the five strong men were knocked to the ground one after another, unable to fight back.
Mingzhen rubbed her eyes, suspecting it was a dream.
"you……"
She wanted to question Qing Lingyi, but the black shadow was already standing beside her, his hands like eagle talons clasping her throat.
Qing Lingyi stepped forward and pulled off the gauze on her face, showing surprise: "Miss Zhenzhen, why is it you?"
Mingzhen's face turned red with anger: "How dare you insult me!"
Qing Lingyi smiled and said: "Ming Dynasty and Cheng Dynasty are still in-laws. Your father and General Cheng are colleagues and partners. I think that no matter what opinions or opinions you have about me, you should not Destroy the relationship between our families. What do you think?"
"Then you compete with me!"
"I told you, I'm hurt." Qing Lingyi opened his palm to show her.
"Stop pretending! Your injury has obviously healed!"
"For someone like you who has been in the army all year round, it may not be a big deal, but I am too weak. I have to cry many times every day for this injury, let alone draw a bow. Miss Zhenzhen, please don't embarrass me." The last sentence , Qing Lingyi seems to be acting coquettishly.
The voice was soft, as if the bones were going to be brittle.
Mingzhen managed to control her mind, sneered and said, "If you don't want to fight, then you will have to let Meng Si come!"
Meng Si who was behind was startled and said hurriedly: "I...Miss Ming, I obviously did everything you said, I..."
"Shut up!" Mingzhen scolded.
Qing Lingyi frowned.
Si Rujian saw it and tightened his strength on his hand.
Mingzhen struggled painfully: "Qing... let go..."
Qing Lingyi said: "Let her go first."
Si Rujian complied.
Mingzhen held her throat and breathed heavily. She had never suffered so much in her life.
"If you have any problem, just come to me and don't embarrass Meng Si." Qing Lingyi looked calm.
Mingzhen looked up and said, "Then you go and compete with me! Just compete in horse riding and shooting! In front of everyone!"
"Do you really want to compete with me?"
"right!"
Qing Lingyi sighed, "Okay then."
Mingzhen didn't react at first, "What did you say?"
"You said it, than riding and shooting."
Mingzhen couldn't hide her excitement for a moment: "This is what you said! Don't go back on it!"
Qing Lingyi was helpless: "I won't regret it."
Mingzhen came over and pulled her: "Let's change clothes together! Pick a horse!"
Qing Lingyi obeyed all: "Okay."
"Lingyi..." Meng Si spoke softly from behind her, her voice trembling.
"Don't worry about me." Qing Lingyi smiled warmly at her.
The corners of Meng Si's mouth turned downwards, and tears kept pouring out.
On the way to the stables, Mingzhen laughed and said: "To say you are kind, I think you are stupid. Meng Si deceived you and used you like this, but you are still willing to compete with me for her. If I were you, I would be cruel Slap her!"
"Didn't you instruct her to do this?" Qing Lingyi hit the nail on the head.
Mingzhen squinted: "So what?"
She found Meng Si and asked her to trick Qing Lingyi over.
Meng Si refused at first, but then Ming Zhen threatened her.
"If you don't obediently follow my instructions, I guarantee that you will never enjoy the slightest benefit of the Ming clan in the future! As for me, I will also let your husband and mother-in-law know that all of this is thanks to you as a good daughter-in-law. !”
Meng Si looked sad and finally nodded.
Mingzhen was very disdainful of this: "You betrayed your friends like this, what a weakling! This kind of thing will never happen to me!"
"That's because you are confident, your family is prosperous, and you have a favorite concubine in the family. But the Meng family is not the same. When Meng Si gets married, her natal family will not support her, and her mother-in-law is not kind to her. If she If she offends you, how will she live in the future?"
Mingzhen still couldn't understand and sneered: "A woman's kindness."
"That's because I am a woman, so I can understand women's difficulties." Qing Lingyi was very impatient with her, "I don't understand, why do you insist on competing with me?"
"Why?"
Mingzhen's horse had already been selected. She got on the horse and looked down, her eyes full of contempt, "That's because you are not worthy of becoming a general!"
With her legs clamped under the horse's belly and the horse's hooves raised, she said lightly: "Just wait to be defeated by me and embarrass your mother and yourself!"
Qing Lingyi gritted his teeth and felt inexplicably angry.
·
Cheng Yang won easily.
Throwing the bow and arrow to the attendant, he went to find Qing Lingyi.
When I looked at the seat, I didn't see her, only Lu Ting.
Cheng Yang frowned, where are the people?
"General Cheng, is that your wife?"
A young man following behind suddenly said.
Cheng Yang looked along and saw that not far away, Qing Lingyi was riding a horse.
It's still the same aqua top that I wore today, with the sleeves tightened and the sway at the temples removed. Facing the wind, the thin bangs on her forehead were blown apart, revealing her delicate white face.
"Is she going to ride and shoot?"
"Can Mrs. Cheng know how to ride and shoot?"
"What if I fall and get injured?"
“……”
The three teenagers were chattering among themselves, but Cheng Yang didn't hear a word.
Along with the others present, his eyes fell on Qing Lingyi.
She approached the attendant delivering the bow and arrows, but when she was still a few feet away, the attendant's hands shook and he dropped the bow and arrows to the ground.
Mingzhen gloated and looked back.
It was she who had ordered her attendants to do so.
With so many people watching, Qing Lingyi's face must be in disgrace!
