Seeing how scared he was, Jian Qingqing shook her head, “It’s nothing. I’m just not good at learning.”
After this incident, Wei Zheng did not dare to stay too far away from Jian
Qingqing. He pushed Wei Wusheng away and followed beside Jian Qingqing.
Jian Qingqing was being held in Ming Zhiyan’s arms. She pressed against his chest uncomfortably and said in a low voice, “Big Brother Ming, I’m fine now. I can go back.”
Ming Zhiyan lowered his head to look at her little face and let out a low ‘Mm’ from his chest.
Jian Qingqing suddenly felt her waist being held by Ming Zhiyan. The world spun around her and before she could react, she was already back on her horse.
She widened her eyes and looked at Ming Zhiyan in surprise. “Big Brother Ming, you’re so amazing!’
Ming Zhiyan’s lips curled slightly and said, “Let me teach you how to ride a horse.”
Jian Qingqing was pleasantly surprised and said, “Okay, okay!’
Ming Zhiyan’s gentle voice rang out, “Don’t straighten your body. Relax a little.
Bend your waist slightly and grab the front end of the reins with one hand…”
Jian Qingqing followed Ming Zhiyan’s explanation and adjusted her movements. She felt that sitting on the saddle was not so uncomfortable anymore.
She was pleasantly surprised and said, “It worked!”
Ming Zhiyan smiled. “Alright, let’s run and see.”
Jian Qingging adjusted her sitting posture and pulled the rope according to Ming Zhiyan’s instructions. The horse began to run slowly.
Ming Zhiyan and Wei Zheng quickly followed behind her.
After running for an entire afternoon, Jian Qingqing felt that she had already mastered the skill of riding a horse. She did not say what kind of tricks she would come up with, but at least she could control the horse and let it run faster or slower.
At night, she stopped at a courier station. Because this courier station was between two big cities, if she walked faster, she could reach it in a day. Very few people would stay at this courier station, so this courier station had always been idle, it ‘Alas small and dilapidated.
With so many people coming at once, the steward of the courier station received them with fear and trepidation.
There was only a steward and two aunties who cooked and cleaned the courier station. Wei Zheng handed the carriage to the steward and said, “Order someone to prepare hot water and send it to the Princess’s room.”
The steward was shocked. He did not expect that the person who moved into the courier station was the famous Princess Ding’ana This was the princess who invented fine salt and discovered high-yield grains!
The steward said excitedly, “Yes, yes, yes! I will definitely serve the Princess well!’
After riding the horse for an entire afternoon, Jian Qingqing felt that her legs were no longer hers. It was painful and numb. She was being supported by Mother Jian as she walked shakily.
Ming Zhiyan passed a bottle of medicine to her and said, “Miss Jian, pour the medicine into hot water tonight and apply it on your thighs. It will feel better tomorrow.”
Jian Qingqing quickly took it and thanked her.
Although riding a horse was fun, it was also really torturous.
After eating, the aunt at the courier station sent over a large bucket of hot water. It was a very large bathtub.
Jian Qingqing had only seen it on television, but she had never used such a bathtub in real life.
She poured the medicine into it and impatiently soaked it in the water. She let out a comfortable sigh and took a bath. She was no longer tired.
After taking a medicinal bath, she did not feel so bad the next day. It was just that her thighs were still slightly sore.
In the next few days, Jian Qingqing only went out to ride a horse occasionally. She spent most of her time in the carriage.
Xiao Lang looked at her with envy and jealousy. “Sister, you can ride a horse, but you don’t even ride it. I can’t even ride it even if I wanted to!”
Because he was still too young, even if he changed to the smallest horse, he still could not reach the stirrup, so he could not ride a horse..
