This voice... Tang Shishi was surprised. Why was this young man's voice so sharp? Was he a eunuch?

It was a pity that Tang Shishi has no time to think about that young man's matters. Although her horse was tame, it was not without temper. The young man's whip was very powerful, and the horse was frightened and galloped on the grassland at full speed.

Tang Shishi just learned how to ride a horse this afternoon. She could only trot with her horse slowly and could not control any intense movement yet. Tang Shishi even felt that her arms began to weaken, she was about to lose her grip on the mane and soon would fall off.

Zhao Chengjun was showing his mount to Anji Timur when he suddenly heard a horse's neigh coming from behind him. Immediately afterward, another roaring neigh of pain came from another horse.

Zhao Chengjun turned around and saw Tang Shishi's horse was out of control. She was bumping right and left on her horse as if about to fall anytime and anywhere. Not far away, a thin and weak young man's horse was also startled.

The two horses ran in different directions, and both of them were in danger. Zhao Chengjun's expression changed, before he had time to explain, he turned over and mounted on Jiaoxue, and galloped forward quickly.

Jiaoxue was a warhorse, has experienced many battles with Zhao Chengjun, and has long been in touch with his master. After Zhao Chengjun mounted the horse, no need to command and Jiaoxue already ran forward at full speed. Jiaoxue passed by many people, and when he passed Zhao Zixun, Zhao Chengjun said quickly, "Go and save Narentuoya."

Zhao Zixun was about to set off. Hearing Zhao Chengjun's voice, he abruptly reined in his horse, swiftly glanced in the direction of Tang Shishi, and turned around silently.

Zhao Chengjun quickly caught up with Tang Shishi. He skillfully controlled Jiaoxue's speed to match Tang Shishi's horse. Zhao Chengjun said to Tang Shishi, "Let go of the reins."

"No way." Tang Shishi thought that Zhao Chengjun asked her to jump off the horse and held her mane more tightly. "Falling will hurt my face!"

She still has time to think about her face. Zhao Chengjun was helpless and urged Jiaoxue to get closer to Tang Shishi, "Let it go. Give me your hand."

It was very dangerous for the two horses to be too close to each other. Tang Shishi's arm was already so sore that she could not feel it. All she could feel was the horse's forelegs rising and neighed forcefully. Tang Shishi could no longer hold her mane and fell backward. Time seemed to slow down when she was weightless. Tang Shishi clearly felt that she was falling backward and she could imagine that she must have landed on the back of her head when she fell.

Suddenly, there was a strong force on her arm, and then, her waist was encircled by someone, which completely led her in another direction. Tang Shishi was put on a horse and completely lost her reaction. She could only feel the arm around her waist was extremely powerful, as if it could not be shaken like iron.

Zhao Chengjun brought Tang Shishi to his horse, immediately held the reins, and controlled Jiaoxue to change direction. If two horses were too close, they would affect each other. If they were not careful, Jiaoxue will be frightened.

Fortunately, Zhao Chengjun has excellent horsemanship skills. Jiaoxue took a turn, galloped fast on the overgrown grass, and then his mood quickly stabilized. Jiaoxue's speed was very fast, and Tang Shishi was still in shock. Immediately, her body was stiffened all over with fright.

Sensing that Tang Shishi was too scared to move, Zhao Chengjun asked, "Didn't you say you could ride a horse?"

"I'm just talking about it." Tang Shishi closed her eyes, no matter what was behind her, she buried herself firmly to the rear, "Wangye, can you slow down?"
