Marriage of the Di Daughter Chapter 75 Part 2: Thrilling

The laymen only joined the crowd and were naturally unable to see anything. They only knew that the Jiang familys second miss wasnt ignorant of equestrianism, at least she knew how to get on the horse. The experts could point out the method and Kong Liu saw something more than meets the eye. He whispered in Zheng Hu Chens ear: Jiang second miss is pretty good.

Zheng Hu Chen frowned slightly.

Jiang Li had mounted the horse, the heavy arrow tube was carried on her back. She pulled the reins, the summer wind blew on her face; it was very warm. She remembered Xue Huaiyuans instructions and Xue Zhaos smile.

Suddenly theres tears in Jiang Lis eyes.

The tears quickly disappeared because the drumbeat that indicated the start had sounded. With a woosh, six horses rushed out wildly at the same time.

To say rushed out wildly wasnt actually the case. Nie Xiao Shuang and Zhu Xin Er were just trotting, they didnt even brandish their whips and merely cautiously maintained the posture of running. Kong Liu wiped his face, and said with frustration: Truly a waste of this fathers good horses.

Jiang You Yao and Jiang Yue were better than these two ladies. At least their actions of brandishing the whip were still very valiant. However, the horsemanship they displayed while on horseback was very simple, it was more for the display of beauty, making people take note of the person on the horseback and not on the horse.

Zheng Hu Chen also secretly shook his head, clearly very dissatisfied with the conduct of these ladies. But there was no way, equestrian archery was not the strong point of Ming Yi Hall. So to say, it was very rare to find ladies who were willing to bear hardship and learned this kind of skill that was not usually used.

In the entire examination field, Meng Hong Jin took the lead.

She was like a ball of fire; her attire blazing on the mounted horse, making her appear both proud and beautiful. The clear outline of a slender figure of a woman made the heart thump. Along with the jolt of the horse, her long hair undulated, creating a very beautiful picture. Although Meng Hong Jins looks couldnt be compared to Jiang You Yao, the Meng Hong Jin on horseback was indeed more eye-catching than Jiang You Yao.

The Meng familys young lady is amazing, someone said: at least on horsemanship, no one could surpass her.

Then what about Jiang second miss? Someone made fun from the side: In the previous four exams, didnt Jiang second miss wasnt behind anyone and turned defeat into victory?

Mm, but look, currently Jiang second miss is lagging behind. The person who spoke before replied: Besides, Jiang second miss doesnt seem to be rushing forward, Miss Meng is way ahead of her, so it should not be possible to overtake Miss Meng.

On the examination field, Jiang Lis dark brown horse was also running.

Seemingly surprising, but after thinking carefully, it also seemed to be expected. Jiang Li didnt seem unfamiliar with horse racing, she looked as if she had done it before. But compared with the previous three exams where she came first and her stunning qin tune Eighteen Songs of a Nomad Flute, her riding skill looked average.

She didnt display any skill while on horseback and it couldnt be seen how good she was at horsemanship. However, one thing could be proven, that she was certainly serious in horse racing. Because after Meng Hong Jin, the second position belonged to Jiang Li.

It wasnt difficult to comprehend. Nie Xiao Shuang and Zhu Xin Er were originally a bit afraid of riding horses at a fast pace, thus their movements were cautious. Jiang You Yao and Jiang Yue were both occupied with showing off their own beauty. By comparison, there were only Jiang Li and Meng Hong Jin that were truly competing.

The distance between Jiang Li and Meng Hong Jin wasnt very far. Probably, as long as Jiang Li powerfully brandished her whip, she ought to be able to overtake Meng Hong Jin. But unexpectedly, Jiang Li didnt seem to have the intention to exert more force and even her running style made people feel somewhat leisurely.

Kong Liu scratched his cheek anxiously: Whats the matter with Jiang second miss? As long as she exerted a bit of force, she could overtake that Meng girl, but why didnt she? Ay, its killing me.

Zheng Hu Chen: Calm down..

I cant calm down. Say, this is annoying or not, actually can overtake.

Pa, with this sound, the person at the side closed his fan.

Kong Liu stiffened and immediately kept quiet. He turned his head and saw Ji Heng spoke in a cold tone without looking at him: Too noisy.

Kong Liu no longer spoke.

Even though Kong Liu was very anxious because Jiang Li didnt overtake Meng Hong Jin, the person who felt worry for Jiang Li was, on the other hand, relieved. For instance, Liu Xu, Ye Shijie and Jiang Jing Rui. Jiang Li should be able to ride a horse. Seeing that she rode very steadily, no problems should occur. Todays exam was also the final two exams, riding and archery in one. As long as Jiang Li maintained her pace, Meng Hong Jin would lose the bet, also, Jiang Li didnt need to be expelled from Ming Yi Hall. The outcome was favorable.
