Shock! I accidentally entered the Qing Dynasty and was spoiled by the Fourth Master
Chapter 10 No Accident
On the second day of hunting, Deyin got up early and asked Luwu and Qingxuan to go to the outer camp to fetch some water.
Deyin walked out of the tent and started stretching. Although she had been here for several months, she was either sitting or lying down in the mansion every day. This kind of life made her body very tired. She finally had the chance to come out and get some fresh air. If there was really a chance, she would like to try riding a horse.
"Miss Deyin, this is the water that the Eighth Prince asked me to bring you. He said the weather is getting cold, and he wanted to let you sleep a little longer." Yunxu, a servant under Yinsi, put the water outside the tent and immediately went back to report. Deyin looked at the bucket of water, and she thought that the Eighth Prince must be as clear as the water now, but all that came to her mind were the entanglement between brothers during the fight for the throne and the wronged souls who were forced to be involved in this war.
When Deyin thought of this, she couldn't love Yinsi like this, nor did she dare to love him. She knew the ending, so she didn't dare to bet that she could change it all.
"Miss, the emperor has ordered a horse race to be held in the imperial camp today. Please get ready quickly." Qingxuan changed Deyin into a close-fitting dress and half-tied her hair up.
There are more seats in the imperial camp today. The person next to the emperor is none other than the crown prince Yinreng, who is wearing a bright yellow robe with four-clawed pythons. He was made the crown prince when he was just one year old, and Kangxi personally raised him since he was a child. Even though he was deposed two years later, the father-son relationship could not be severed. Deyin knew their fate when he looked at the people here, but when he was really in it, he realized that it was not a good thing to see through the ending at a glance.
"Sister Deyin, come here quickly, the horse race is about to start." Shen Jiaxu invited me to take my seat.
The Thirteenth Prince won a point, and Shen Jiayu jumped up with joy. Deyin felt someone looking at them, and when she glanced over her head while holding her teacup, she saw a gorgeously dressed woman not far from them with an unhappy expression, which made her back feel cold, and she intuitively felt that the woman had malice.
Kangxi thought about the important purpose of this hunting trip, so he stood up and said to the imperial camp: "Are there any women here today who would like to mount a horse? I want to see how the women of the Qing Dynasty perform. If there is a winner, I will definitely reward her handsomely." After hearing this, Deyin was already eager to try.
"Your Majesty, I heard that Shen Jiashi's daughters all grew up on horseback, so why not let Shen Jiashi show off her riding skills?" The person who spoke was the woman who had just looked at us. She specifically asked Shen Jiashi to go up, wasn't she just trying to see others make a fool of themselves? Ma Xiwei turned around and looked at Shen Jiashi with a hint of provocation.
Deyin looked at Shen Jiaxu and realized that Ma Xiwei was the Crown Princess's younger sister. They both admired the Thirteenth Prince for a long time and often disliked each other. Although Ma Xiwei's family background was not as good as Shen Jiaxu's, she was the Crown Princess's younger sister after all. With the help of her sister, it was not difficult for her to see the Thirteenth Prince often.
"Ma Xiwei, do you have the courage to ride with me?" Shen Jiaxu could no longer sit still in the face of the provocation from her love rival. Although she hadn't ridden a horse for a long time, she still had some experience, so she took the lead and headed to the center of the field.
But Ma Xiwei didn't have the courage to compete. She was a Han Chinese woman who had never ridden a horse before. She didn't expect that she would lose face today by talking.
"You..." Ma Xiwei was too anxious to answer, so she swung her skirt and sat down.
"Thirteenth brother, your sister Shen Jia has gone upstairs."
Yinxiang looked at Shen Jiaxu's back and said to the Fourth Prince, "This girl just loves to show off." Before he finished speaking, he stood up and chased after her out of concern.
"Thirteenth Master, why are you chasing after us?" Kangxi asked Yinxiang loudly.
"I am worried about the safety of Sister Shen Jia. Please allow me to watch from the side." Kangxi laughed and agreed to Yinxiang's request.
"Is there anyone else who wants to try?" Kangxi's eyes stayed on Deyin. It was obvious that he wanted her to go up. Li Liang winked at his sister. Deyin stood up, waved at the emperor, and walked to the side of Shen Jiayu.
"Okay, Eighth Brother, go up and accompany Deyin." Kangxi smiled. He was very satisfied with his arrangement, which was exactly what Yinsi wanted.
Deyin looked at Yinzhen sitting in the seat, feeling a little disappointed. Yinzhen was also not feeling well, as the Emperor's move made everyone misunderstand Lao Ba and Deyin.
Deyin had ridden a horse once before she came through. She climbed onto the horse's back carefully and pulled the reins. Fortunately, it fit well. Then she relaxed, recalled her brother's instructions in her mind, took a deep breath, stepped on the saddle horse, and rushed out with Shen Jiaxu.
"Gee," Deyin was still a little scared, so she stuck close to the horse's back and let it run forward. But just as she tightened the reins to turn, the horse got frightened and suddenly stood up its front legs. Deyin screamed and held the reins tightly with both hands. The sweat on her palms made her even more flustered.
Yinsi was about to turn with his back to Deyin, but before he could hear her scream, he was thrown to the ground by the horse's hooves and accidentally hit a stone. Yinsi wanted to chase after her, but the dizziness in his head prevented him from getting up. He slapped his head and stood up suddenly, but fainted as soon as he pulled the reins.
Shen Jiayu and the Thirteenth Prince ran ahead, and they didn't worry too much. The Thirteenth Prince thought that nothing would happen with the Eighth Prince. When they returned to the imperial camp, they didn't see Deyin coming back. Kangxi frowned and immediately sent someone to check the situation.
"Your Majesty, something bad has happened. Donglin, Donglin, we saw from afar that Miss Deyin's horse was frightened and rushed all the way into Donglin." The guard said in panic.
When the people present heard the word "Donglin", their faces changed drastically. Everyone knew that it was the Death Forest, a place where people are eaten without leaving any bones.
Aunt Zhao listened to the guests' discussion and looked at Juelan with a triumphant look on her face, thinking that even if she went to look for her, it would be a waste of effort.
Deyin didn't know what had frightened the horse. This was a Ferghana horse that was a tribute from the Western Regions and also a royal hunting horse. There should have been no problems with it. But an accident happened just when she was approaching the forbidden forest. What she least believed in was coincidence. Her subconscious told her that this was definitely not an accident.
