Lin Xuan didn't know what Li Tai did to Li Chengqian's horse, but judging from the horse's condition, it was nothing more than something similar to stimulants.
He didn't think that at this time, he could create the kind of stimulant that would keep him awake.
It is very likely that the horse will keep running like this and eventually die of exhaustion.
By the time we passed Fang Yiai, we were almost close to the finish line.
"Horse, horse, I hope it's useful to you, otherwise I won't be able to save you." Lin Xuan activated the animal taming technique.
Lin Xuan didn't see that the horse under his crotch had red eyes full of madness, but when he activated the beast taming technique, it regained consciousness.
"Xu~"
After crossing the finish line, Lin Xuan tried to control the horse to stop.
Lin Xuan laughed when he saw the horse slow down and stop.
"How is that possible?"
Li Tai was thinking that Lin Xuan would be seriously injured even if he didn't die this time. When he saw Lin Xuan stopped, he suddenly stood up.
Li Ke asked strangely: "Brother Huang, what's wrong with you?"
Li Tai came back to his senses and said with a forced smile: "I'm so excited. I didn't expect that Lin Xuan came first and won the first place."
"I heard that my father gave his favorite lion to Lin Xuan, but he is not riding a lion now. It seems that Lin Xuan's riding skills are indeed outstanding." Li Ke praised.
"Yeah." Li Tai had already cursed Han Wen in his heart.
If it weren't for the wrong occasion, Li Tai would have wanted to ask him: "Is this the strange medicine from the Western Regions you mentioned?"
Han Wen was also dumbfounded. He thought that Lin Xuan would not be hurt by his martial arts skills even if the horse went crazy.
But what is going on now? Is it possible that the medicine I bought is fake?
It’s impossible. I tried it after I bought it. How could it have no effect?
Han Wen was filled with doubts and suddenly noticed an angry gaze. He looked up and saw Li Taizheng looking at him fiercely.
Han Wen smiled bitterly in his heart, knowing that if he didn't give Li Tai an explanation, Li Tai would never be able to believe him again.
"The first place in this horse racing is Hou Linxuan of Jingyang County, the second place is the second eldest son of Duke Liang, Yiai... the eighth place is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince... the tenth place is Yuchi Baolin, the crown prince of E State." The steward of the racecourse shouted.
"Zi Chu, Xin Hao, you are here, otherwise we would have been completely embarrassed if Fang Yiai had won the championship." Cheng Chumo said.
Fang Xuanling, Cheng Yaojin and other military generals had a good relationship, but civil servants and military generals were naturally opposed to each other.
If Fang Yiai wins the horse racing championship, they, the Lord's children, will all become laughing stock in the future.
"Let's go and collect the prize quickly. There will be something for the top ten. The prize provided by King Wei is still worth a lot of money." Yuchi Baolin rubbed his hands and said.
Cheng Chumo mocked, "You're at the bottom of the pile, and you still have the nerve to ask for a prize."
"Aren't you ranked seventh, and you have the right to laugh at me?" Yuchi Baolin said unhappily.
Cheng Chumo chuckled and said, "Anyway, the tenth is better than the seventh."
"If some bastard hadn't fallen off his horse and delayed me, would you have defeated me?" Yuchi Baolin said angrily.
Speaking of this, Yuchi Baolin was very depressed. According to his original speed, he could finish in the top five, not to mention the top three. Who knew that on the second lap, someone in front of him fell off his horse, which delayed him for a while.
Qin Huaidao said speechlessly: "Stop arguing about this, everyone else has passed."
Everyone looked up and saw, right? Everyone else had returned to the stands, and they were the only ones left.
Several people quickly handed over their horses to the attendants and walked to the stands.
"Qingque cost you money this time, so I don't want the prize." Li Chengqian said with a smile.
"Thank you, brother, for thinking about me. However, these things were given by my father and I have no use for them. Borrowing flowers and offering them to Buddha is nothing," Li Tai said.
Li Chengqian's smile faltered and he said, "In that case, you're welcome."
Although Li Chengqian knew that Li Tai was showing off to him, he still felt a little unhappy.
Lin Xuan won first place and received a hosta.
The hosta is not the kind of hairpin used by women, but the kind of hairpin used by men to tie their hair after they are crowned.
The carving of the hosta is very exquisite and the texture is delicate. You can tell at a glance that it is a rare warm jade.
If you want to buy this hosta, it will cost at least one thousand guan.
Yuchi Baolin got a string of pearls, which was worth at least 500 guan. The total of all the prizes was at least 8,000 guan. Li Tai was indeed bleeding heavily this time.
Li Tai was already in a bad mood, and he kept thinking about asking Han Wen to question him. After handing out the prizes, he said: "Two royal brothers, I'm feeling a little unwell, so I'll stop here today."
…
"Today is a good day. We account for four out of the top ten, so we should celebrate." Cheng Chumo suggested.
Lin Xuan shook his head and said: "I have something to do, let's do it next time."
Li Chengqian didn't notice anything unusual, but he kept thinking about it in his heart. When he just left, he looked at him and asked him to find him.
How could he have time to celebrate with them?
"Since Zichu has something to do, let's do it next time." Qin Huaidao said.
After bidding farewell to Cheng Chumo and others, Lin Xuan came to the East Palace.
Li Chengqian had already explained it, and there was no need to inform him. Lin Xuan was taken in directly.
"See His Highness the Crown Prince." Lin Xuan bowed and saluted.
"No gift."
Li Chengqian sent the maids and eunuchs away in the main hall and immediately asked: "How is it?"
"Your Highness, I may be overly concerned. King Wei did not do anything." Lin Xuan finally did not tell him about Li Tai's manipulation of his horse.
There is no evidence now. What would Li Chengqian do even if he knew?
If Li Chengqian loses his temper and does something, it will be detrimental to Li Chengqian.
After listening to this, Li Chengqian's eyes were very complicated, with a hint of disappointment and joy.
He remembered that when he was young, Li Tai had a very good relationship with him, but at some point, the two brothers gradually grew apart. He was glad that Li Tai still cherished brotherhood and did not attack him.
But at the same time, he was a little disappointed. If Li Tai really took action, as long as he could find evidence and hand it over to Li Shimin, then Li Tai would not pose any threat to him in the future.
…
"My son has met my mother." Li Ke bowed and saluted.
Concubine Yang smiled and said: "Sit down, the Jockey Club is over? Who won the championship?"
After Li Ke sat down, he said: "Going back to my mother, she is the Marquis of Jingyang County."
According to the rules, even if Li Ke is a prince, after establishing the palace, if he wants to enter the palace, he must ask Li Shimin for permission.
However, Li Shimin liked Li Ke very much, and since Li Ke had been a vassal for a long time, Li Shimin felt a little indebted to him, so he specifically allowed him to enter the palace to see Concubine Yang at any time.
"Your Majesty gave the Lion Cong to the Marquis of Jingyang County. With a horse like the Lion Cong, it is not surprising that he won the first place." Concubine Yang said.
Concubine Yang was born in the imperial palace and grew up in the imperial palace. After the Li family conquered the world, she lived in the Qin Palace for several years and finally returned to the imperial palace.
As a former princess and now a noble concubine, Concubine Yang has a wide range of knowledge. She has seen the Lion Cong, so she naturally knows that it is one of the best horses in the world.
Li Ke shook his head and said: "The Marquis of Jingyang County did not ride a lion. Although he was riding a bloody horse, according to my son, it was not the best among them all. However, the Marquis of Jingyang County still won the championship.
My son is also a little confused."
"Your father often praises the Marquis of Jingyang County as a genius, and geniuses are naturally different from others." Concubine Yang said with a smile.
"My father said so, so the Marquis of Jingyang County is naturally outstanding. It would be great if Lin Xuan could help me." Li Ke murmured.
