Chapter 420 I Love You So Much

"Of course!" Mu Lingxue stepped forward and hugged Chu Qingmeng, "I love you so much!"

"..."

"..."

Mo Liujin and the other man separated them with dark faces.

"Madam, let's go in first." Mo Liujin half-embraced Chu Qingmeng, held her hand and forcibly took the person away.

"Madam, let's go. I can find any horse you like." Mo Liuyuanxu supported Mu Lingxue as they walked towards the observation deck.

“…”Small-minded!

Chu Qingmeng cursed silently in his heart.

After entering the observation deck, Chu Qingmeng realized that almost most people had arrived. This time, in addition to the children of wealthy families, there were also children of marriageable age from various families.

Chu Qingmeng was stunned for a moment. "Aren't there only some young men from aristocratic families accompanying the envoys on their tour? Why are there women from other families as well?"

"It's to keep the princesses company, and also to let the families get to know each other, killing two birds with one stone." Mo Liujin helped Chu Qingmeng sit down, and then explained to her.

Chu Qingmeng responded, then looked up to see Mo Jiangli looking in her direction. Seeing her looking over, Mo Jiangli stood up and walked over. After all, the event hadn't started yet, and the crowd was so crowded, the scene was chaotic, so Mo Jiangli's action wasn't out of place.

"Mother," Mo Jiangli knelt on one knee beside Chu Qingmeng and whispered in her ear, "I just found out from talking with Jiang Qing yesterday that you are also knowledgeable in military strategy. Can I borrow the book you gave to Jiang Che to read?"

"..." Chu Qingmeng was at a loss whether to laugh or cry, "Okay, go ask Jiang Che yourself."

Mo Jiangli had just returned to his seat when a slightly sarcastic voice came from beside him, "Brother, are you trying to get along well with the princess in order to win over the general? Then as a younger brother, I would like to remind you that instead of starting with the princess, it would be better to give more concubines to make the general happy. Haha..."

Mo Jiangli frowned slightly, but soon relaxed. "Third brother, you should read more books when you have time. Don't be so self-righteous and think that everyone in the world is like you."

"You!" Mo Jiangzhou was interrupted by the eunuch's shout before he could finish his words. "The Emperor has arrived!"

The observation deck fell silent in an instant, leaving only the sounds of people greeting each other.

Mo Liuyun stepped into the observation deck and saw Chu Qingmeng secretly eating the cakes on the table. He smiled helplessly and dotingly. He thought, "He's so old, but he's still so childish."

"Everyone, please stand up." Mo Liuyun sat down and let everyone excuse themselves, and then the envoys entered the observation deck.

After everyone took their seats, the day's proceedings began. Wu Yong read out the day's plan aloud, "First, horse racing. There are two groups, male and female. The first place winner in the men's group will receive a Tiger-Headed Ao Jin Spear. The first place winner in the women's group will receive a gold hairpin."

Chu Qingmeng naturally wouldn't play. She came for the free time and didn't need to compete with a bunch of younger people for the spotlight. She just happened to watch the princes and the children of various families racing horses with several important figures from the diplomatic corps. The women's group was composed of the four princesses of Dayu, the four princesses who came to marry, and the women of various families.

To avoid discrepancies between horses, the racehorses used were all from the Imperial Stables. With a crisp whistle, the horses galloped out. Chu Qingmeng watched the action with great interest, wondering what would happen to the horses that had been tampered with.

But after waiting for a long time, everyone had been running out for a long time and began to return one after another, and no horse had any problems. Chu Qingmeng was puzzled and turned to look at Xia Zhi behind him.

Xia Zhi frowned slightly and shook his head. He didn't know what was going on.

When the two were wondering, Qi Xiuheng, who was originally running in the front, suddenly stumbled on the horse's back. The horse started to get angry and jumped around wildly trying to throw him off.

Fortunately, Qi Xiuheng was skilled in martial arts and riding, so he was not thrown off. He tried his best to control the crazy horse for a while, but instead of calming down, the horse became even crazier. Qi Xiuheng flipped his palm and the long needle with a strange green light was directly slapped into the horse's neck.

The horse neighed and fell to the ground.

At this moment, Jin Huaian and Qin Qiantian faced the same problem. However, Jin Huaian simply tapped his toes, and his advanced Qinggong skills allowed him to land lightly. Immediately, a guard stepped forward and shot the mad horse. Qin Qiantian's method was simple and rough. He stretched out his hand and slapped the horse's neck directly.

Chu Qingmeng had a faint smile on his face as he glanced at the Third King, the Fifth King, and the Seventeenth King with a playful look. He had seen that these three were not very smart before, but Sixteenth King was quite patient. It seemed that Twelve had taught him a lot.

Mo Yunting, who was seated at the top, had a gloomy expression, but also a certain understanding. He knew someone would stir up trouble, but when it actually happened, he couldn't help but feel angry. All the nations came to pay tribute, and one could easily go to war with one another. Although they were fighting for the throne, if the country was destroyed, what good would it do to win the throne? What idiots!

Everyone on the observation deck had a serious and gloomy expression, except Chu Qingmeng, who seemed unaffected. He was in a good mood and took a small bite of a piece of milk cake.

Mo Liujin frowned as he looked at the fallen horses. Why were these the only ones? The others seemed fine. How could the person who had committed the crime have been so sure these horses would be given to the princes of the neighboring kingdoms?
