First Lady of the Crown Prince

 Chapter 755 The New King (1st update)

 Gu Jiao's victory was beyond everyone's expectation. Before the result was announced, Xiao Liulang could not find this person at the scene.

Although "Xiao Liulang" has long been famous in the Juju circle, people in the military camp have never heard of this figure.

There are more than two hundred people participating in the primary election, six people per round, a total of forty-four rounds. Not every cavalry who advances will receive attention.

 Obviously, Han Che, who has the aura of Han Ye's younger brother, has contributed a lot of attention to Gu Jiao. Coupled with the Black Wind King and the masters of the Feng family, Gu Jiao suddenly became the hottest focus of the whole process.

　　Many people wanted to come over and talk to her, but unfortunately they were too frightened by the Black Wind King beside her to dare to come forward.

 The aura of the Black Wind King was so strong that it automatically cut off a spacious space around Gu Jiao.

 Gu Jiao enjoys the feeling of not having to be crowded around by others.

 She was at the edge of the training ground, quietly watching the selection of the others.

Gu Changqing walked towards Gu Jiao.

 The Black Wind King moved.

Gu Jiao gently touched its neck.

The Black Wind King is no longer wary of Gu Changqing.

Outsiders naturally cannot understand the communication between one person and one horse. They only think that the young man is too courageous. He dares to approach the Black Wind King and is not afraid of the Black Wind King kicking him away with his hoof.

You must know that this is how Han Che and the Feng family masters were kicked away.

There were several Han family members standing not far away. Gu Changqing turned around and exchanged glances with them.

A few people made gestures, and Gu Changqing nodded knowingly.

 Then he came to Gu Jiao.

 The scene was filled with explosions and screams, and no one could hear what they said.

But looking at Gu Changqing's expression, it seemed that he was asking Gu Jiaoxing to accuse him.

 “Frown, okay, that’s it.” Gu Changqing said.

Gu Jiao frowned in an exaggerated way.

Gu Changqing: “…”

 I am trying to make you frown, not slap your five senses.

Gu Changqing said: "The performance was good just now, but the horse lost some weight."

Gu Jiao hummed, touched the Black Wind King's mane, and said: "I haven't eaten well for a few days and I'm hungry and thin, but I should try to eat in the future."

Gu Changqing has learned about the Black Wind King's escape from the Han family's children.

Han Ye could have gotten the horse back, but Han Ye didn't.

 He has no faith in the Black Wind King.

 He has never really regarded the Black Wind King as his own battle horse, but only regarded the Black Wind King as a valuable item.

 Once the value is gone, there is no need to keep this item.

 “Fortunately I met you.” Gu Changqing said sincerely.

Meeting other people may not cheer up the Black Wind King again.

"I didn't happen to do it." Gu Jiao said, it was King Ma who brought the Black Wind King back.

It was also on the way to find the Horse King that he brought the Black Wind King back twice.

Gu Changqing didn't know what to say after hearing this.

 My sister loves to pick up people, and she also likes to pick up horses...

"You are being targeted." Gu Changqing did not forget the business. If it were not for reminding her, he would not have told the Han family that he would come over to "beat this kid".

"Oh." Gu Jiao was not surprised, "A member of the Feng family?"

　　Feng Laosan, the Feng family member, was killed by her in the woods.

“Not only that, but also the Dong family, the Du family, the Chen family and the Yang family.”

"Oh." Gu Jiao was not surprised. All four of them had been injured by her in the forest. Among them, Mr. Du and Mr. Chen were the most seriously injured, while the head of the Yang family and the head of the Dong family were slightly less injured.

　　After coming out of the forest, she once thought whether these people would go to His Majesty to report her, but it didn't happen.

  She and Xiao Heng analyzed this problem carefully and concluded that they did not dare.

They robbed the little princess arbitrarily, causing the little princess to fall and get injured. The little princess even remembered it.

The king is worried that he can't find out who those people are. How can they have the courage to mention what happened in the forest?

However, precisely because they could no longer be public, they all harbored a grudge against Gu Jiao.

Gu Changqing said softly: "Be careful yourself, I will say to the Han family that I am trying to win over you."

 “Okay.” Gu Jiao responded.

In order not to arouse suspicion, Gu Changqing could not stay too long.

"The Han family has been looking here. I'm going over." Gu Changqing said, "I won't go to the Imperial Master's Hall these days. I'll contact you if I have anything to do."

Gu Jiao nodded.

Thinking of something, Gu Changqing asked again: "By the way, what is your identity?"

“I haven’t looked at it yet.” Gu Jiao said, opening her purse, and just as she was about to take out the token, she heard a shout from the front.

 “Xiao Liulang! Come and get your number plate!”

 Gu Changqing glanced at the deputy examiner and said to Gu Jiao: "We draw lots to determine the selection order for the next round. I have already drawn all the draws. It is Tiangan Jiayi. You go quickly."

 The order of appearance is arranged according to the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches. The A in the Heavenly Stem is equivalent to the number one, so it is also called the Heavenly Stem A1.

 The number plate will not be announced to the public after being drawn, so Gu Changqing doesn’t know who the other person who draws Tiangan Jiayi will be.

Gu Changqing said: "As long as you don't draw Tiangan Jiayi, it will be fine."

It's not worthwhile for them to face each other so early. He also wants to consume a few more opponents for her.

Gu Jiao looked at him and said, "You can't raise the flag, it will fall down."

 “Huh?” Gu Changqing was confused.

Gu Jiao said: "It's nothing. I'll tell you in detail next time. I'm going."

 “Go.” Gu Changqing said.

Gu Jiao led Black Wind King towards the military camp in the east.

Another round of selection is taking place on the field, and one of them turns out to be Taoist Master Qingfeng.

Gu Jiao was a little surprised.

 He is here too.

 Yes, he is the elder brother of the head of the Feng family.

The Feng family has two places, and the one just now is obviously not enough. If he doesn't play in person, the Feng family really has no chance of winning.

Taoist priest Qingfeng is riding a beautiful white horse.

The man looks like a fairy, and he rides a horse with a particularly fairylike air.

 He rushed out of the fire, his eyes were cold and determined, and his face was stained with a little flying ashes, giving him a somewhat battle-scarred beauty.

 He rode swiftly, leading the five others and taking his mount to the high platform.

Gu Jiao could see that he was being a little deliberately arrogant.

 In the first round, just advance, no need to work too hard.

Who hasn’t put some water in it yet, right boss?

Gu Jiao patted the Black Wind King and no longer paid attention to the situation on the high platform.

Taoist priest Qingfeng is not defeated in horseback riding, let alone martial arts.

 When she came to the gate of the military camp, she met another acquaintance.

 Compared to Taoist Master Qingfeng, the person in front of him seemed less surprised.

“Mu Qingchen.” She greeted.

Mu Qingchen looked a little tired. He wondered if what happened in the Mu family had affected him a little.

Mu Qingchen's face didn't show much surprise. It wasn't that he expected Gu Jiao to come, but that he saw Gu Jiao during the selection.

He didn't ask why Gu Jiao appeared here. His intuition told him that Gu Jiao would not answer.

 He looked at Gu Jiao with a complicated expression and said, "I will do my best."

Gu Jiao said: "Me too."

At this time, soldiers came over and took Gu Jiao and Mu Qingchen's horses to the stable to feed them.

 Mu Qingchen handed the horse to the soldier.

Gu Jiao said: "My horse doesn't need to be fed."

The soldier said: "The weather is hot and the horses consume a lot. If we don't replenish water and food in time, they will easily become dehydrated."

Gu Jiao still said: "I know, no need."

The soldier opened his mouth and wanted to say something else. Mu Qingchen said, "Lead the horse down."

“Ah, yes.” The soldiers took Mu Qingchen’s horse away.

When the soldiers led the horses to the stable, two men in rich clothes came over, one with a white face and no beard, and the other with a goatee.

The man with a white face and no beard said: "Why didn't you bring it here?"

The soldier reported: "When I went back to the head of the Dong family, the boy said that his horse did not need to be fed."

"Oh, what did I say?" The head of the Dong family sneered and looked at the goatee man beside him, "Old Yang, you should believe it now, right? That kid is by no means a reckless man. He is deep-minded and highly vigilant. It’s not that easy to deal with.”

The head of the Yang family frowned and said, "Who is this kid?"

The head of the Dong family smiled and said: "This kid is a student of Tianqiong Academy, a native of Zhao State, and a classmate of Mu Qingchen. I suspect that the masked man in white who took her away from us that day was Mu Qingchen."

The head of the Yang family asked suspiciously: "Why did Mu Qingchen do this? Isn't he the grandson of Mr. Mu? Why doesn't he help the Mu family?"

The head of the Dong family smiled lightly: "Maybe the Su family has their own little idea, who knows?"

The head of the Yang family thought thoughtfully: "Since he is not from the Yan country, he should have taken the identity of a collateral descendant to participate in the selection this time. Is his purpose to help Mu Qingchen consume his opponents?"

The head of the Dong family agreed: "It's very possible."

 …

 On the other side, Gu Jiao and Mu Qingchen had finished drawing lots.

 In the camp, the two did not exchange any information.

After coming out, Mu Qingchen hesitated before calling him: "I am Earthly Branch."

Gu Jiao groaned: "What a coincidence, I am also an Earthly Branch."

Mu Qingchen's breathing tightened slightly: "Shen Jiu."

　　Gu Jiao: "Weiba. I'll be in front of you."

Mu Qingchen secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

 For some reason, he didn't want to confront Gu Jiao.

Even if it is sooner or later, he still hopes that the duel between them will be later, and later again.

While they were drawing lots, cavalrymen from the ten major families came on stage one after another. Among them, nine from the Han family were promoted. Except for Han Che, who was eliminated by Gu Jiao, the other eight were all promoted.

Everyone is lamenting that the strength of the Han family's Black Wind Cavalry is indeed terrible.

But Gu Jiao didn't think it was because of how powerful the Han family was. The Black Wind Cavalry was taken from the Xuanyuan family, and the taming method was also passed down by the Xuanyuan family.

 The Han family is just eating the Xuanyuan family’s human blood buns.

Gu Jiao was not interested in reading anymore and planned to go back to feed the Black Wind King.

 “I’m leaving first, see you at the next one.”

The moment she said goodbye to Mu Qingchen, a chill suddenly ran down her spine, as if a terrifying murderous aura swept in from the other side of the battlefield, with an unstoppable force that instantly filled the entire battlefield.

 The horses on the field began to become restless, and even the body of the horse that was concentrating on the game swayed.

 What a powerful aura!

 The only horse at the scene who was not affected was probably the Black Wind King.

"ah-"

A horse that was trying to get on the high platform was stalled in mid-air, failed to get on, and fell down together with the cavalry.

 The cavalry screamed.

 Gu Jiao and Mu Qingchen looked at the powerful aura at the same time.

I saw a silver-haired man walking slowly and leisurely on a chestnut war horse. He walked gracefully and calmly, but he carried the domineering aura of a king that made thousands of horses tremble.

The silver-haired man is very young, in his late twenties, definitely not thirty.

As for the horse, Gu Jiao could not tell its specific age, but she could feel that it was a young and vigorous horse.

Mu Qingchen's expression became solemn: "It's the new Black Wind King of the Han family. He is six years old this year. The one riding on the horse is Han Wuye, the legitimate son of Mr. Han. He has been studying and taming the Han family's own Black Wind Cavalry for the past few years."

Gu Jiao looked at Mu Qingchen: "My own Black Wind Rider?"

Mu Qingchen looked at her and said: "Master Han Wu once said that the Black Wind Cavalry trained by the Xuanyuan family is not the most powerful war horse in the world. He will use his own method to tame a more powerful Black Wind Cavalry. He sat on The new Black Wind King is the result of his domestication."

“Oh.” Gu Jiao touched her chin and carefully observed the person and horse not far away.

Mu Qingchen said seriously: "I know your Black Wind King is very powerful, but... I'm afraid it's no match for that horse."

Han Wuye’s new Black Wind King is not only younger, but also more athletic and agile. Its explosive power, endurance, speed, and strength are all impeccable.

Mu Qingchen paused and said, "Also, it has another name."

Gu Jiao asked: "What's your name?"

Mu Qingchen opened her mouth and said: "Black Demon Horse."

 The Dark Lord is on the scene.

 It is the middle track, but before the gongs and drums are beaten, the horses on both sides of the track are already too frightened to move.

Although the other two horses were able to rush out bravely, they made frequent mistakes and were eliminated before even finishing the fire bridge.

Han Wuye advanced without any suspense.

Mu Qingchen looked at the invincible black devil horse on the high platform, frowned slightly and said: "Your Black Wind King took a total of seventeen breaths from starting to getting on the high platform, while Han Wuye's dark horse only took ten. Two breaths.”

 At such a short distance, the Black Demon Horse is a full five breaths faster than the Black Wind King!

 This is like a 110-meter hurdle, where the first place is five seconds ahead of the second place.

Mu Qingchen said: "I know that your Black Wind King didn't use all his strength, and Han Wuye's Black Demon Horse didn't use it either. And Han Wuye is very skilled in martial arts... You have no chance of winning... If you meet them next time, I hope you can choose-"

 “Let’s fight.” Gu Jiao said.

Mu Qingchen frowned.

 Did she say it backwards?

Gu Jiao got on the horse, held the reins tightly, and looked at Han Wuye who was riding the black magic horse on the high platform from a distance.

 Han Wuye’s eyes were contemptuous.

Gu Jiao felt the provocation from the Black Demon Horse, and also felt the strong fighting spirit from the Black Wind King.

 She straightened her spine and looked resolutely: "I want to fight, and King Black Wind also wants to fight!"
