Chapter 181

If he wanted to do it, he had to do it without leaving a trace and without leaving a single flaw.

He first introduced the advantages of these three horses to the princess. If the princess really liked one of the three horses and rode it, angering his highness ….. then the consequences would have nothing to do with him.

If his highness blamed him, he could say that the legs belonged to the princess and the horse was the one that the princess wanted to ride.

Like this, he would be able to complete the concubine consort's task and he would be able to protect himself.

It was a pity that his plans were all for naught.

Of the three horses he recommended, Chen Ning did not like any of them.

The horse groom closed his mouth.

He obediently followed behind Chen Ning and then saw Chen Ning stop in front of a small date red horse.

"I want this one." Chen Ning smiled as she nodded at the date red horse.

The horse groom bowed in agreement, but his heart was filled with disdain.

There were so many large horses that she didn't choose and she actually chose this short, ugly, and weak horse.

He remembered that this date red horse was the one that his highness had brought with him when he bought the jade flower horse from Dawan three years ago. Just looking at it, he could tell that it was not a good horse and the horse groom did not care about it.

If it wasn't for his highness' love for horses, this small and thin date red horse would have already been slaughtered and eaten by them.

In these three years, Chu Shao Yang had never looked at this date red horse, so it did not even have a saddle on it. It just stood alone in the shed, listlessly eating grass and swinging its tail from time to time.

Its fur was sparse and did not have any lustre. Compared to the shining horses that Chen Ning had seen before, it was like heaven and earth.

It could be seen that it had not entered Chu Shao Yang's eyes. Even the horse groom had neglected it and did not care about it at all.

Chen Ning stood in front of it and carefully looked at it. The more she looked, the more she liked it.

The horse groom brought over a saddle and walked into the shed to put it on the date red horse. Who would have thought that the date red horse would suddenly raise its hoof and heavily kick him.

"Beast, damn beast!" The horse groom fell to the ground and loudly cursed.

He quickly got up and pulled out a whip to swing at the date red horse.

With a "shua" sound, the whip he lashed out did not hit the date red horse, but instead hit his own face. He was stunned.

When he looked over, he found that his hand holding the whip was being held by Chen Ning.

"This is a horse that I like, so how can you hit it and scold it?" Chen Ning grabbed the whip and threw it on the ground. She coldly stared at the horse groom.

She bent down to pick up the saddle that had fallen to the ground and prepared to personally put it on the date red horse.

The horse groom had been hit by the whip and his face was burning with pain. He did not stop this and secretly hoped that Chen Ning would also be hit by the horse's hooves.

When the date red horse saw Chen Ning approach, it began to become anxious. Its hind hooves kept flying and it had a very unfriendly expression.

"Ze, Chen is to to to the horse," it said.

Chen Ning smiled as she praised it. She was not in a rush to put the reins on it, but she took out a dumpling candy from her pocket. Holding it in her palm, she sent it forward.

The date red horse snorted and came forward to sniff it. It first licked it in confusion before happily eating it. Soon the candy disappeared, but the date red horse did not have enough. It continued to lick her palm, feeling itchy.

Chen Ning smiled and took out another two dumplings to feed to the horse. Then she reached out to stroke the horse's mane.
