Published at 10th of February 2023 11:33:12 AM

Mo Yun was raised by Qin Zening when he was young, this horse also accompanied him when he was in the army. Such a fine horse that was not afraid of going to the battlefield should not be surprised for no reason.

Qin Jiu’s eyes darkened as she asked again, “Brother, how did you fall?”

Qin Zening: “Probably the saddle is not properly secured.”

Qin Jiu followed Qin Zening’s gaze and looked at the horse, Mo Yun’s back. Indeed, the horse’s back was empty and there was no saddle.

Qin Jiu continued to ask, “What about the saddle?”

Without waiting to be asked, another young master wearing an indigo robe smilingly came forward and helped: “The saddle is over there, sister, wait, I’ll go pick it up!”

He ran seven or eight steps from Mo Yun and picked up the saddle that had fallen on the grass.

Su Xiyang gave a cold snort and covered his injured right arm. He said in a cold voice, “There’s nothing else, then we’ll go first!”

“No one is allowed to leave!” Qin Jiu took a step in Su Xiyang’s direction, “No one is allowed to leave until this matter is cleared up!”

As soon as she said that, Pei Qi and others immediately acted spontaneously, they surrounded Su Xiyang and his followers with horses, not allowing them to leave.

Su Xiyang held his chin high and said in a cold voice, “Get out of the way!”

“Are you deaf?” Gong Liu smirked as he looked at Su Xiyang with his arms clasped around his chest and said as a matter of fact, “Didn’t you hear our sister say not to leave!”

Qin Zeyu: “……”

He doesn’t know why, but he felt that his sister seems to be quite suitable to enter the army battalion…

Qin Jiu took the saddle and looked at it carefully, her eyes slightly narrowed as she saw the obvious cut on the saddle strap which was not natural but a mark left by a sharp blade.

“Brother, no wonder you fell from your horse. Someone tampered with your saddle!”

Qin Jiu slowly said as she clutched the saddle in her hand, and shot Su Xiyang a sword-like glare. Who actually tampered with the saddle, one could well imagine…

Qin Zening: “!”

When he fell off the horse, he only felt the saddle was somewhat loose, then he fell off the horse, and after that, because his leg was fractured and he couldn’t move, he didn’t bother to look at the saddle.

Qin Zeyu also wanted to understand the sequence of events as his complexion turns extremely ugly after hearing his sister.

The young man was so furious that he took the saddle from Qin Jiu’s hand and said angrily, “Su Xiyang, you asked my brother for a riding competition, and just by coincidence, my brother’s saddle was tampered with causing him to fall off his horse!”

“Su Xiyang, don’t say you don’t know!”

Qin Zeyu pointed at Su Xiyang’s nose in fury and rebuked.

Gong Liu and Pei Qi were also angry, and as their anger rose slowly, they shouted and cursed.

“How dare you cheat, Su Xiyang!”

“I used to think you only know how to go to the redlight district, it turns out that I also underestimated you…”

“Isn’t this clear? Didn’t this little son-of-bitch just say that Zening wasn’t capable of competing with him? I’ve heard that he was also fighting for the commander position in the fifth army battalion! But he lost to A’ning two days ago!”

At this moment, Qin Jiu saw the guilt in Su Xiyang’s eyes.

The commander of the Fifth Military Battalion was a ladder to the sky for aspiring generals.

Most importantly, her eldest brother told her that the emperor was planning to order the imperial army to send troops to suppress the bandits. If he could enter the fifth army battalion, win this opportunity, make a great contribution and return triumphantly he could ask the emperor to bestow him a manor, he would be by then able to split the family.

The day before yesterday, her eldest brother also said that he came first place in the written exam, and the next assessment was a martial arts test which he made sure he would not lose face and was confident with his success.

However, her eldest brother’s leg was now fractured, so he would not be able to participate in the martial arts assessment in the coming days. Su Xiyang resorted to such despicable means just to get into the Fifth Army Battalion?!

But of course, Su Xiyang didn’t admit to it as he said coldly: “You have no evidence, what are you pointing at me!”

He deliberately increased the volume on the words “no evidence”, and his arrogant virtue was close to saying, ‘even if I did it, but what can you do to me!!’

At this time, the middle-aged physician had already put a splint on Qin Zening’s right calf and said to Pei Qi, “Master Pei Qi, Master Qin’s right tibia was fractured, but the bone has no crack. I put a splint on him first to fix the leg but I’m afraid he needs to keep his leg for a month to get it completely healed.”

When Su Xiyang who was a few steps away heard this, the corner of his lips curled up visibly.

Several young masters who were with Su Xiyang were still helping him: “Yes, even if someone tampered with Qin Zening’s saddle it wasn’t necessarily Su Xiyang who did it.”

“Also, wasn’t Qin Zening offended many people?”

“Who knows who is not pleased with him and cut his saddle…”

The two sides confronted each other with sparks shooting through the air and swords being drawn.

Qin Zeyu couldn’t stand listening, so the young man with a flushed face painted on his immature face shouted loudly, “It’s you!!”

He rolled up his sleeved and was ready to rush forward, determined to seek justice for his brother but felt his cuffs tighten.

“Don’t…”

He wanted to say, ‘Don’t stop me’ when he met Qin Jiu’s disapproving eyes and had to swallow his words back.

Qin Jiu pulled Qin Zeyu’s cuffs with one hand and didn’t let go, and said in a good-natured manner, “Is letting you learn martial arts mean letting you fight casually?!”

Qin Zeyu: “….”

Su Xiyang also thought that Qin Jiu wimped out and felt much better, feeling as if even the injury on his arm did not hurt so much.

“Third Miss Qin this…”

Su Xiyang was about to make fun of her a few more times, but he instead heard Qin Jiu say with a smile, “Report to the official.”

Report to the official?! Su Xiyang immediately forgot what he was going to say and was dumbfounded.

Few of the young masters beside Su Xiyang also lost their voices and looked at each other blankly. What report to the official?! The third miss of the Qin family was not really normal and was unreasonable!!

Qin Jiu was smiling too much that her eyes and eyebrows curved into slits as she said, “Young Master Su, let’s just go to the public court in the capital!”

Su Xiyang: “!!!”

Su Xiyang originally thought that Qin Jiu would only go to the palace to complain to Empress Wei at most, so he wasn’t afraid at all.

After all, it was Qin Zening who promised to compete with him personally before, but he fell off his horse and broke his leg in the competition. He didn’t touch even a single of his hair!

And instead after losing, he ran to the adults to complain. If this news spread, he would be viewed as some suckling child. And at this point, many people in the capital would think highly of him, Su Xiyang, the one who wins against suckling Qin Zening.

Therefore, Su Xiyang was determined that even if Qin Jiu wanted to complain, Qin Zening would stop Qin Jiu.

However, he never expected that Qin Jiu would actually want to go to the public court in the capital! Was this miss from the Qin family crazy?!

The situation took a sharp turn, and all the people on Su Xiyang’s side looked like they were being strangled, unable to speak.

Su Xiyang’s face on the other hand was turning blue, white, and purple, as he looked at Qin Jiu in disbelief.

Seeing that the situation was getting awry, his friends silently took a step back followed by one after another.

Qin Jiu glanced at the young man, smirking.

Qin Zeyu was also shocked by his sister and carefully lowered his voice to confirm, “Third sister, do you really want to go to the public court?”

“Go.” Qin Jiu domineeringly confirmed.

As she said this, she once again looked at Su Xiyang, “Didn’t Master Su say that there was no evidence? Then let’s report to the official, let the magistrate of the capital make a clear decision, to see if Master Su trying to kill my brother secretly is justifiable just because of the position he wants in the fifth army battalion!”

“We can’t wrongly accuse Master Su for nothing, can we!”

“……” Su Xiyang’s face looked uglier.

Meanwhile, Qin Zening’s friends were shocked at first, and then they all showed interesting expressions as they exchanged glances in twos and threes.

They’ve never been to a public court before, this would be interesting!
