Shen Miao looked down at herself and said, "Not good looking."
Xie Jing Xing said, "The mountain wind is cold. It is better to wear an outer coat."
Shen Miao, "…" How could there be a cold wind in the June weather? Moreover Long Ye had always been warm.
Xie Jing Xing added, "Your body, hair and skin now belong to the Xie family and cannot be casually sunburned."
Shen Miao said, "Understood. Jing Zhe, go and bring an outer coat over."
Xie Jing Xing then gave up.
When they were outside, Mo Qing and some of the guards from the residence of Prince Rui were already prepared. Ba Jiao and the rest were also there. Jing Zhe and Gu Yu did not need to follow up today and Xie Jing Xing also transferred a female guard from the Mo Yu Army, Jian Xiang, and Ba Jiao to act as Shen Miao's personal maid to protect her safety.
The more thorough Xie Jing Xing's arrangements were, the more uneasy Shen Miao's heart was. Today's Imperial Hunt coincided with the sixtieth year ceremony so she had to come even if she did not want to. But even if there was no such thing, Shen Miao would not stay in the residence of Prince Rui by herself. Not because of anything else, but because her right eyelid kept twitching non-stop, as if it was indicating that something was going to happen.
When Xie Jing Xing saw her preoccupied look, he seemed to be in deep thoughts and said as he walked towards the door with Shen Miao, "Why are you so depressed?"
Shen Miao said, "Always feel that one's heart is not at ease."
"Your husband's life is good." His lips hooked up, "Furen need not worry."
Shen Miao rolled her eyes at him but seeing that there was no horse carriage at the door, she asked, "The horse carriage is not brought over?"
Xie Jing Xing smiled and pulled Shen Miao to the door. Mo Qing led a horse forward and Xie Jing Xing flipped up the horse before suddenly pulling Shen Miao's hand. Shen Miao was caught off guard as she was pulled up the horse and was encircled in Xie Jing Xing's embrace.
"The horse carriage is too slow." He looked down at Shen Miao and said unhurriedly, "You know archery but do you know how to ride a horse?"
Just as Shen Miao wanted to speak, Xie Jing Xing interrupted her words, "It is alright if one do not know. Your husband will teach you." Finishing, he whipped the horse and the horse neighed and galloped away.
Xie Jing Xing's guards seemed to have followed behind and Shen Miao's back was leaning against Xie Jing Xing's embrace. Her heart could not help but be shocked. That horse was also a good steed and ran very fast. Xie Jing Xing's equestrian skills were very good and he chose to take the winding road. The crowd in the marketplace would exclaim when they passed by and he laughed loudly, but it was extremely arrogant.
Shen Miao recalled the first time she saw Xie Jing Xing in this lifetime. In front of Guang Wen Tang's doors, that purple clad handsome youth was sitting on a tall horse, lazily sizing everyone up.
His breath was near her ear, almost on her cheek. His low and joyful laughter came from above her head and Shen Miao's heart was suddenly infected.
In fact, she also yearned for this kind of freedom. She had also stood on the palace walls of the Nine-Layered Palace and looked at the eagles flying high in the distance and the horses running freely under her feet. She yearned for this kind of free and easy life. But for her entire life, she could only be imprisoned in the depths of the palace, guarding the man she didn't love, and fighting against each other for the sake of her children.
It seemed that she had not been this unbridled for a long time.
Shen Miao laughed, "Are you as rude in Long Ye as you are in the Ding capital?"
"Even more so!" Xie Jing Xing replied. He lowered his head and swept a glance at her before placing his chin on the top of her head and smiled softly, "You are not as happy in the Ding capital as you are in Long Ye."
Shen Miao was surprised for a moment before Xie Jing Xing continued to smile, "I prefer this kind of Shen Jiao Jiao."
"Me too." Shen Miao smiled.
Xie Jing Xing's movements paused for a moment and even the horse's movements slowed down. He said, "You also like this kind of me?"
