Chapter 972: Chapter 973 I Want to Tame It

By the time An Jing and Xiao Changyi saw that wild horse, it had already been captured by several people and was about to be led to the stable.

The horse was white, its body entirely snowy white, with a sturdy physique, untamed yet majestic, and its untamable wildness was something one couldn’t ignore. An Jing fell in love with it at first sight.

”Husband, I want to tame it!” An Jing pointed at the horse, and excitedly said to Xiao Changyi.

Xiao Changyi whispered in An Jing’s ear in a low voice, ”You just need to tame me.”

”Stop teasing.” An Jing laughed, gently pushing Xiao Changyi away, her smile and actions filled with sweetness. ”I’m serious, I really want that horse, and if I tame it, father should give it to me, right?”

Xiao Changyi said, ”If you ask him, he will give it to you.”

”That’s good.” An Jing was relieved. ”Then, Husband, wait here for me, I’m going to tame the horse.”

But Xiao Changyi held her back, ”You have no experience in taming horses, I’ll go.”

An Jing shook her head and smiled, ”I saw it first, so I should be the first to tame it. I want to be its first master; once I’ve tamed it, I’ll let you ride it with me and become its master too.”

It was always nice to ride the same horse with her husband, but sometimes it was better to ride different ones. Not being able to ride the same one meant they would need another horse, so she thought it better to have an additional horse.

Now, since this horse so perfectly suited her tastes, she was determined to tame it and make it hers.

Seeing how adamant An Jing was, Xiao Changyi did not insist on taming the horse himself anymore but instead admonished her, ”Don’t get hurt.”

”Mm.” An Jing smiled and nodded at Xiao Changyi, then walked toward the horse.

This horse, she must have it!

As soon as An Jing approached, she told the people leading the horse that she wanted to tame it, but those people did not dare to let An Jing do so.

”Princess, please don’t make this hard for your servants. We really don’t dare. If something happens to you while taming the horse, our heads wouldn’t be enough to pay for it.” The people even knelt and kowtowed to An Jing.

Left with no choice, An Jing had someone go inform the Emperor of Xiyun. Once the Emperor permitted it, these people would naturally dare to proceed.

But unexpectedly, this summoned the Emperor of Xiyun himself.

When he arrived, he too disagreed: ”Jingjing, this horse is too wild. No one in Dongqing can tame it. You better not try to tame it. If you want a horse, there are many at the stable, just pick any of them without troubling yourself. What if you hurt yourself?”

An Jing knew the Emperor of Xiyun was worried about her, but she said, ”Father, I really want to tame it.”

”But...” the Emperor of Xiyun was still worried.

At that moment, Xiao Changyi said indifferently, ”Let her tame it.”

”Changyi, you...” the Emperor of Xiyun couldn’t believe it. Knowing how much Xiao Changyi loved his wife, he never thought he would agree to let An Jing do such a dangerous thing.

Xiao Changyi said, ”I believe in her.”

Emperor of Xiyun: ”...” How sweet is that.

An Jing just smiled watching her husband. This was another way he pampered her too.

As her husband was not worried, the Emperor of Xiyun relented, ”Then go to the horseback archery field to tame it.”

”Thank you, Father!”

The Emperor of Xiyun also wanted to see how An Jing would tame the horse, so he did not return to Jun Palace and instead accompanied An Jing to the horseback archery field.
