Female Master: Why doesn’t my wife love me yet?

Chapter 168 Out of Control Horse

At the end of the second competition, Gu Qingyuan won the well-deserved first place by hitting the bull's eye, and You Yu took second place.

"It must be a coincidence! Next, I want to see if she can have such good luck again."

In the crowd, a vicious gaze was fixed on Gu Qingyuan.

She didn't believe that Gu Qingyuan would be able to be the same as she is now during the horse riding competition later.

The Fourth Princess sneered in her heart. The horse that Gu Qingyuan was going to ride had been fed with grass spiked with edibles in advance. As soon as she rode on it, the horse would be frightened and would run forward continuously until the person on it was thrown off.

By then, Gu Qingyuan would probably be injured if not dead.

After the archery competition, the last ten were eliminated. They left with regret and looked at the remaining people reluctantly before leaving.

After all, this competition is full of masters, so it is unexpected that they can persist until now.

You Yu came to Gu Qingyuan's side and raised an eyebrow at her, "Young Master Gu, you performed well."

She originally aimed at the bull's eye, but when she exerted force, the arrow deviated a little, otherwise it would be hard to say who would have won the first place.

You Yu's tone was full of appreciation and admiration, but there was no jealousy.

She is a calm person who has achieved everything through her own strength.

"Then let's both keep working hard."

Gu Qingyuan smiled back at her, and the two of them seemed like close friends who had known each other for a long time.

After the second match, it was almost noon, and the third match was scheduled for the afternoon.

Even though the weather was extremely hot, it could not stop the enthusiasm of the people.

As for her bets, more and more people are betting on her, but because Gu Qingyuan achieved good results in the first two games, the wind direction has changed a little.

"I bet on Young Master Gu to win."

"I also bet on Young Master Gu to win."

"Well, if you all bet on her to win, then I'll bet on her to lose."

During the lunch break, we also took a break at the stables. Fortunately, the stables were large enough to accommodate so many people.

With less than half of the people left, the field looked a lot emptier.

Wen Shubai had been paying attention to Gu Qingyuan's situation. He turned his head and noticed that Ji Mingzhao's posture was a little unstable. He advised: "Why don't you go back and rest first."

Ji Mingzhao is now more than four months pregnant. Apart from her bigger belly, her body has become much thinner.

Ji Mingzhao shook his head. He didn't want to go back because he would not be able to see her if he went back.

Moreover, he always had a bad premonition and was afraid that what happened in his dream would happen.

Seeing that he couldn't persuade him, Wen Shubai stopped trying.

However, he asked Zhaomei and Panmei to buy some tea to relieve the heat, and he was also paying attention to whether the people around him would squeeze them.

After the lunch break, the third equestrian competition will begin.

The person in charge of the venue brought out dozens of horses and assigned horses to each person by drawing lots based on the list of people who remained after the first and second competitions.

Gu Qingyuan's horse was a chestnut-colored one with bright eyes. She walked up to the horse and gently patted its head to comfort it.

The horse dug its hind legs into the ground and neighed again.

In the third competition, someone held a target and walked around the racecourse, and the contestants had to shoot the target.

This item suddenly increased the difficulty a lot.

After all, you have to know how to ride a horse first, so that you can eliminate those who can't ride a horse.

Another thing is that this is different from the archery in the second round. The target in the second round is fixed, while the target in this third round is a movable target, which tests the contestants' eyesight and archery ability on horseback.

But this is not a problem at all for Gu Qingyuan.

When she followed her mother to Xiancheng before, she had experienced the cruelty of war. For her, it was just a matter of shooting the target, which was much easier than killing someone.

The man holding the target, sweat dripping down his forehead, said to the contestants, "Dear heroes, please make sure you aim carefully before you shoot!"

Although she was wearing protective clothing, she was still worried that someone would shoot her, so she had to tell everyone in advance.

"Don't worry, I won't hurt you."

"That's good……"

Each person's arrow has a number on it, and each person has three arrows. This is also convenient for distinguishing who hits the target at the end. If none of the three arrows hits the center of the target, the person will be eliminated regretfully.

There were more than ten people holding targets, and their bodies and heads were wrapped tightly.

The third competition is divided into two parts. The first half is a speed test, and the winner is the one who reaches the finish line first. Then comes the horseback archery test.

In front of the huge horse farm, a group of people stood in two rows. Gu Qingyuan held the reins tightly in his hands, clamped his legs around the horse's belly, and waited for instructions.

With a command, a cloud of dust rose on the racecourse and everyone rode their horses forward.

The finish line was on the other side, and after the referee gave the order, the crowd burst into enthusiastic cheers.

As Gu Qingyuan was riding, she suddenly felt something was wrong. She didn't know if the horse she was riding had stepped on something, but it was out of her control.

The horse ran faster and faster, and Gu Qingyuan's body couldn't help but fall backwards. The horse was actually trying to throw her off!

In such a situation, if an uncontrolled horse runs rampant, it may hurt innocent people.

Gu Qingyuan first steadied himself to prevent himself from falling, then quickly thought of a countermeasure and said to the person in front of him, "Get out of the way!"

The person in front heard Gu Qingyuan's voice and looked back, and saw her trying hard to steady her body, and the frightened horse.

"What's going on? Young Master Gu's horse seems to have a problem."

"We'd better get out of the way quickly, lest we get hurt."

"But Young Master Gu, nothing will happen, right?"

When Ji Mingzhao below saw this scene, his heart almost jumped out of his chest.

Still showed up!

In his dream, the horse that Gu Qingyuan was riding suddenly lost control and threw her out.

If a horse throws a person from a high place while running at high speed, the person will definitely get injured.

He shouted anxiously: "Wife, be careful!"

But Gu Qingyuan could not hear the sound below at all at this time. All she could hear was the whistling wind in her ears, and the horse rope in her hand was no longer useful for her horse.

Just as the horse was about to turn around and crash into the tree, Gu Qingyuan gritted his teeth, jumped up and jumped down.

With a "bang", the horse's head hit the tree. Gu Qingyuan also jumped down suddenly and took two steps back on the ground, and his eyes went black.

She shook her head and felt some pain in her legs from the huge impact when she jumped down.

The accident happened so quickly that the Queen couldn't help but squint her eyes when she saw it.

"Eunuch Li, why do I feel like there are so many problems in today's martial arts competition?"

"...Your Majesty, I will go and find out what is going on."
