"No, thanks..." Xiao Ye refused without even thinking about it. Based on her understanding of Su Minglang's recent behavior, if she didn't get down, she would really find someone to carry her off the horse.

Losing face is a small matter, but losing one's chastity is a big matter!

Su Minglang watched Xiao Ye twisting awkwardly on the horse's back. Li Zhao was afraid that she would scare the horse so he walked over and held the reins tightly. The little girl took great pains to half fall and half jump off the horse's back. Before she could stand firmly, she met Su Minglang's teasing gaze and her neck turned red instantly.

Su Minglang seemed to have forgotten the embarrassment he felt when he got off the horse just now.

"Since there is no need for our help here, we will take our leave first." Li Zhao turned around and clasped his fists to say goodbye. The young master on the side was in a good mood after watching the lively scene and did not express any opinion on his decision.

"Thank you, my lords." Su Minglang returned the greeting and when he stood up, he found that the Queen was walking towards him from not far away.

Li Zhao noticed the change in Su Minglang's expression and followed her gaze. He also saw the queen turning around and bowing. "Your Highness, I pay my respects to you."

"Queen?" When the prince heard Li Zhao's words, he turned around and saw that it was indeed the queen. He couldn't help but curl his lips. What he hated most in his life was people who followed the rules, and the queen was one of them.

"We still have things to do, so we'll take our leave first!" The young prince didn't wait for the queen to speak. He just bowed perfunctorily and took Li Zhao away.

"What happened?" The Queen looked back at the two people leaving and asked Su Minglang.

"Nothing, just a little incident." Su Minglang smiled helplessly, "Just now I was riding a horse here, and the two adults saw me and came over to ask if I needed help."

"Oh? When did Li Zhao, the famous Jade-faced Devil, become so kind?" The Queen asked in surprise.

"I guess it's not that Lord Li who is kind, but the young master of the Yueyang Marquis family who wants to see me make fun of me." Su Minglang smiled bitterly. Turning around, she patted the horse behind her and said, "This horse is very well-behaved. I just tossed it around without getting annoyed."

"If your majesty wants to give it a try, you might as well use this one."

Su Minglang looked at the Queen's hesitant gaze and added, "I have been riding for a long time, and now I am too lazy to get on the horse again."

"Okay." The Queen nodded after hearing what she said. She borrowed Su Minglang's horse stool, stood on it and touched the horse's back, but said nothing else for a while.

Following the Queen was the maid Xiaozhu who had delivered the message to Su Minglang. She looked like she had never ridden a horse before. She stood aside with an anxious look on her face, almost crushing the handkerchief in her hand.

"What's wrong, Madam?" Su Minglang thought that the Queen came from a family of civil officials and might have never ridden a horse before. "You can try to sit on it. Just be careful not to pinch the horse's belly."

If Su Minglang was standing opposite the Queen at this moment, he would see the Queen stroking the horse's mane with a loving look, looking at the tall horse as if she was recalling something.

Seeing that she did not move for a long time, Su Minglang thought that she was timid and did not dare to get on the horse. He wanted to persuade her to get off, but he did not expect that the Queen would jump on the horse skillfully and squeeze the horse's belly hard, and the horse would run away as if it had broken free from its reins.

Xiaozhu, who was standing nearby, turned pale and stood there in a daze. Nanxing, on the other hand, was the first to react and turned around and ran towards the guards in the distance.

Su Minglang saw that the guard was far away and she didn't know how long it would take for Nanxing to explain everything. She glanced at the horse that the queen was leading and jumped on it with a stern look in her eyes.

Su Minglang pulled the reins and they slipped out of Xiaozhu's hands. She tightened her sleeves and rode towards the Queen.

"Empress! Empress! Calm down! Empress!" Su Minglang tightened her grip on the horse's belly, holding the reins tightly with both hands. Her current unfamiliar technique was not enough to support her galloping on horseback for a long time, so the right thing to do was to catch up in the shortest time possible.

The two of them chased each other across most of the racecourse, but the person in front pulled the reins, turned the horse's head and ran out of the racecourse. Su Minglang followed her all the way, and gradually he could see that although the horse was running very fast, it seemed to be always under the control of the rider.

Although Su Minglang was skeptical about the fact that the Queen could ride a horse, this was undoubtedly the best outcome given the current situation.

She couldn't imagine what would happen if a horse got frightened and galloped away and threw a person off. When she was young, she saw with her own eyes a strong man trying to tame a wild horse and fell off the horse's back and broke both legs. What's more, the queen was already in poor health.

If she really fell off the horse, she would be half dead if not killed.

"Empress, Empress! Stop now!" Su Minglang couldn't stop for a while and could only follow behind and shout meaninglessly.

Now she had no choice but to hold out a glimmer of hope for the Queen's riding skills.

Soon the two ran into the woods. Su Minglang felt more and more uneasy as he looked at the increasingly dense bushes, until they accidentally broke into a patch of grass, and suddenly a clear view appeared in front of him.

It turned out that the two of them had been running along the edge of the woods for a long time, and were now running back towards the horse farm. Su Minglang was about to breathe a sigh of relief when he saw two figures standing in front of him, and it was obvious that they were frightened by the two people who were galloping towards them.

"Stop, stop!" The two people in front exclaimed, but they saw that the horse in front suddenly raised its front hoof when it was about to hit them.

Su Minglang held her breath instantly when she saw this scene. She had even thought of the tragic scene that the queen would suffer after falling to the ground. But she saw that the person on the horse held the reins tightly with one hand and quickly turned the horse's head to the side.

Su Minglang had no time to breathe a sigh of relief after seeing this scene, and suddenly realized that the horse under her was also running forward very fast. Knowing that her horse had brushed past several people, she gently pulled the reins and slowly stopped the horse.

Su Minglang didn't dare to let the horse stand up like the queen did, she knew very well that she would fall badly.

"Are you crazy?" Concubine Shu was so scared that her face turned pale. She started cursing before she even saw the person on the horse clearly. It was not until the little palace maid who followed her pulled her that she saw that the person standing in front of her was none other than the Empress.

Shufei's expression suddenly became uglier than if she had eaten shit, but she kept her mouth shut obediently.

"Sorry for scaring you." The queen instantly returned to her original appearance after getting off the horse, and even her voice of apology was calm and peaceful.

If Su Minglang hadn't just followed her across a few horse farms, he would have been fooled by her appearance.
