Chapter 211 Chapter 211 Horse Racing Event

As soon as the sun came out, Ling Haotian and Zhao Guan brought their horse riders to the racecourse on the prairie, but they saw that thousands of men, women and children had already gathered there, and the knights who were about to go on the field were all saddled and kicked up at the starting point, trying to cheer up , Everyone looked nervous, some drank to strengthen their courage, some talked and laughed loudly, and some remained silent. Ling Haotian arranged for several horsemen at Tianguan Racecourse, said some words of encouragement, and rode with Zhao Guan to the finish line of the horse race a hundred miles away.However, tents of various sizes had already been set up there, several high-ranking Mongolian officials were sitting in the tents drinking warm tea, obviously they were the hosts of the horse race.The small tent on the side is full of cloth, harness, tea, dried meat, cheese and other things, which are various prizes to be given to the knight who wins the first prize.

Ling Haotian and Zhao Guan walked through the crowd and found a place to sit down and drink tea, but listening to the whispers of the surrounding people, they all guessed who would win.Someone said: The horses of Tianguan Racecourse come from the valley of ten thousand horses, how can there be no reason not to win?Another person said: "Although that is the case, the horsemen they send are all young and inexperienced, and they cannot beat the veterans who have been racing for many years."I was expecting Doyong Jay from the Big Ukit Racecourse to win.Another person said: The Seventh Prince will definitely play this time.His horse was turned into a dragon, how could he not win?Besides, once the Seventh Prince appeared on the stage, how could others dare to beat him?

When everyone heard the topic that the Seventh Prince was going to participate in the race, they immediately whispered to each other. Some said that the Seventh Prince would definitely come;Some people said that the seventh prince's saddle was made of silver and the stirrups were made of gold. Many people looked forward to seeing the honor guard of the seventh prince when he appeared. However, before the start of the game, the seven princes never appeared.Many people were disappointed and decided that the riders from Tianguan Racecourse or Tai Wuji Racecourse would win.Not long after, a horn sounded in the distance, and everyone waited with bated breath. After the horn sounded three times, hundreds of horses from a hundred miles away ran out at the same time. The crowd shouted and cheered, cheering for the horse masters they fancy or know.

Ling Haotian and Zhao Guan looked from a distance, but they saw three horses leading the way, and it was Artai who was leading. Duo Yongjie from Dawuji Racecourse was walking with him, and another black horse followed closely behind them. The passenger was wearing a black cloth, with a strong figure and a coarse cloth wrapped around his head. He could vaguely see that he was a man with thick eyebrows and big eyes, but he didn't recognize him.Ling Haotian looked at it for a while, and said: This person is following closely, recharging his energy, he will probably win.Do you know him?Zhao Guan shook his head and said: I don't know.

While talking, the first three horses were nearing the finish line, the black horse rider suddenly shouted, clamped the horse's belly, and stood upright, the black horse galloped fast, and even got ahead of Artai and Duo Yongjie, and took the lead.The audience applauded loudly, the dark horse was full of stamina, leaving Artest and Duo Yongjie five or six feet behind, the distance was getting farther and farther, and it reached the finish line first. The people who were optimistic about Artai and Duo Yongjie were extremely surprised and asked each other who the black knight was, but no one recognized him.Everyone guessed where he came from, but they saw the knight in black slow down his horse, jumped off his horse, and strode towards the main tent.When several officials in the tent saw him, they were all stunned. They rushed out of the tent together, knelt down and shouted: "Your Highness, Seventh Prince!"

As soon as this remark came out, the onlookers were shocked and shouted: It's the Seventh Prince!What a Seventh Prince! Zhao Guan laughed and said: So the Seventh Prince is here after all.He appeared in the game, but he didn't put on airs and deliberately didn't reveal his identity, but he was a character.Ling Haotian said: "He has excellent riding skills, and this horse is even more excellent. It is no coincidence that he can win the horse race." At this time, there was already a commotion in front of the main tent, all the officials welcomed the Seventh Prince into the big tent and invited him to sit up.The crowd outside cheered loudly: The seventh prince won the first place!The Seventh Prince came out on top!Awards, awards!The officials saw that the prizes in the small tent were all cheap things, how could they be given to a royal nobleman?I couldn't help being at a loss, hesitated again and again, not knowing how to deal with it.An official said respectfully, "Your Highness Dort, the Seventh Prince, we really didn't know that you were going to participate in the competition, otherwise we would send someone to protect you and prepare a good prize for you."Everything is not well prepared, please be a large number of adults, don't blame it.

The Seventh Prince looked calm, and said with a smile: I'm out for a jog, just for fun, where do I need someone to protect me?As for these prizes, give them to the second and third knights!The officials immediately called Artai and Duo Yongjie in, and said, "The Seventh Prince has generously given you the prize, why don't you kowtow to thank you?" At this moment, they heard a commotion outside the tent, many people shouted in unison: Make way, make way!The fourth prince is here, why don't you get out of here? Surrounded by more than a dozen guards, a man in his thirties with luxurious clothes rushed to the front of the tent on a tall horse, got off his horse, walked into the tent with a big smile, and said, "Seventh Brother, I'm late!" It's a pity that I didn't see you show off!The guards behind him yelled at Artai and Duo Yongjie: "You two lowly civilians, what are you doing here?"Get out!As he said that, he threw the two of them out, and dispersed all the crowd watching the fun in front of the tent.

The Seventh Prince's face darkened, and he said, "Fourth brother, you can come to watch the match, why are you trying to spoil my interest?"The fourth prince laughed loudly and said: I came here specially to increase your interest, how can I spoil your interest?The young hero Dort, the seventh prince, is going to show off his skills at the horse race. How can the elder brother not come to support him?Seventh brother, I don't have any congratulatory gifts for you. I just saw a few beautiful women outside, so I brought them here. Consider them my presents for you.After clapping their hands, the guards behind them pulled up more than a dozen women, all pale with fright, kneeling on the ground and not daring to look up.

Dort let out a hey, and said, "Fourth brother, I can't accept this gift."The fourth prince laughed and said: "It doesn't matter if you don't accept it, I just ask for it myself."Come on, come serve the wine and food, I want to have a good chat with the Seventh Prince about the wine, and let these girls come up to serve the wine! Zhao Guan, Ling Haotian and others saw the four princes being arrogant and domineering, they all frowned and left one after another.When the two were about to leave the grassland, they suddenly heard a loud voice: "Give me back my daughter!"Zhao Guan looked back, only to see more than a dozen Uighurs he met yesterday running towards the big tent, but they were blocked by the fourth prince's guards with knives.

Seeing that the pair of sisters were not among them, Zhao Guan was startled, and hurriedly stepped forward to inquire, only to find out that some soldiers were shuttling through the crowd just now, and when they saw the pretty girl, they pulled her away, saying that it would be a congratulatory gift for the Seventh Prince , the pair of sisters were captured by them. Zhao Guan was furious when he heard this, and cursed, "Damn it, I thought he was a character, but he is also a shameless bastard who grabs women by force!"Immediately, he threw his crutches, pushed aside the crowd, and rushed towards the big tent.
