Chapter 171: Military Training Field

Today was a day off, so there was no need for morning court, and she didn't go to Mo Chenfeng's place. General Chen Shao, who had said at the banquet the day before that he wanted to host a banquet for Mo Liujin and Chu Qingmeng, had already sent a message. They were all going to the military training grounds to compete in horseback archery first, and then go out for drinks in the evening. Chu Qingmeng's eyes lit up when she heard this. Chunhe had finished packing her up, and the two of them rode away on horses. Just to maintain her image of being weak and unable to take care of herself, Chu Qingmeng had to ride on the same horse with Mo Liujin, which made her feel a little aggrieved.

Mo Liujin teased her with a smile, "You really don't have to act so weak and fragile. It scares me."

"We need to throw some smoke bombs to confuse people." Chu Qingmeng sighed. She didn't want to play weak anymore.

Although Mo Liujin didn't know what a 'smoke bomb' was, he roughly understood that she wanted to confuse others. He smiled and said nothing more. The two of them soon arrived at the military training ground.

Chen Shao was already waiting at the door, "General! Sister-in-law!"

"Deputy General Chen." Mo Liujin dismounted and raised his hand to help Chu Qingmeng down. After seeing her bow slightly to Chen Shao, he put on a helpless look and said, "I shouldn't have brought her to the training ground, but she still has a childish nature and insisted on coming. I really can't do anything about it."

"Hahaha, that's no big deal! As long as my sister-in-law doesn't dislike us and other rough guys for speaking without restraint, that's all that matters!" Deputy General Xing next to him continued.

"That's right, we are not those pedantic Confucian scholars!" Another deputy general with a scar on his face also tried to smooth things over. It didn't matter to them anyway.

"Hahaha, yes!" All the generals echoed.

"Tsk tsk tsk, beauty, you are here too?" Ling Xiao was a step behind them. Others didn't know, but he knew that although Chu Qingmeng's kung fu was nothing in their eyes, for ordinary soldiers, three or five of them were really no match for her.

"Yes, General Ling." Chu Qingmeng's weak appearance made Ling Xiao uncomfortable. It was too freaking scary! He would rather see her holding a knife and killing people, which would make him feel calm.

Seeing that most people had arrived, they began to walk towards the training grounds. Once inside, Chu Qingmeng realized how vast it truly was. After clearing out the soldiers from training, she sat down against the leeward wall and watched them compete in horseback archery. She felt an itch inside, wanting to join in, too, but this was too different from her frail, helpless self. She couldn't play, she could only watch...

After playing around with everyone for a while and noticing that Chu Qingmeng was about to cry with greed, Mo Liujin urged his horse over to her and held out his hand, "Want to play for a while?"

"Won't it ruin my image?" Chu Qingmeng asked softly as he stretched out his hand and let him pull him onto the horse.

"In their eyes, you are just a child. No one cares whether you are weak or not." Mo Liujin explained and drove his horse back into the military training ground.

His action frightened the generals. Chen Shao hesitated for a moment and said, "General, don't scare my sister-in-law by doing this."

"No. She is very brave, don't worry about her." Then he drove his horse away. Chen Shao was frightened by him. This little girl must be suffering following their general. He doesn't know how to be gentle with women!

Mo Liujin ignored his thoughts and started racing horses with a few people. After the horse started running, he handed the reins to Chu Qingmeng, "He invited generals who are friends with me. Go ahead and have fun. I'm behind you."

Chu Qingmeng nodded, took the reins, and began to gallop at full speed. Lieutenant General Xing's casual glance nearly threw him off his horse. The reins were in his sister-in-law's hands! Was the general crazy?! This was fatal! The moment he was distracted, Chu Qingmeng flicked the reins and passed him. After a lap, although they were riding together, they were not at the end, but they were not in the front either. Seeing that Chu Qingmeng was not afraid, the people who stopped felt a little more friendly.

The scarred Lieutenant General Liu praised, "My sister-in-law is incredibly brave! Unlike those women who get scared and cry when the horse speeds up a little."

Lieutenant General Xing replied fearfully, "General, was my vision blurry just now? I saw the reins were in my sister-in-law's hand."

His words shocked everyone and made them look at Mo Liujin, waiting for an answer.

"I'm not dazzled." Mo Liujin gave them an affirmative answer.

For a moment, everyone was so shocked that they didn't know what to say.

"What are you all standing there for? Aren't you here to compete in horseback riding and archery?" Ling Xiao saw that the scene was silent and spoke up to break the silence.

"Ah, yes, yes, yes. Hahaha, come on, come on." General Zhendong Li Xiu also hurried to help break the silence.

Chu Qingmeng dismounted and walked back to her seat alone. The generals were shocked again when they saw how agilely she dismounted. It was obvious that this little girl could ride a horse.

Watching the group competing in horseback archery, Chu Qingmeng wanted to try it too, seeing how cool it was to draw a bow and shoot. But the moment she said that, Feiying and Kui Wenzhong, who had replaced Feiling, nearly fell over. Although Kui Wenzhong had given her a bow on behalf of the old landlord, it was clearly different from ordinary bows. It was so light, so light that it looked like nothing was being held. There wasn't another bow as light as this in the entire world. With an ordinary bow, even Jiu Ye would have struggled to lift it with one hand, let alone draw it. But she insisted on trying, and Feiying had no choice but to give her a bow.
