Princess Is Glamorous In Modern Day Chapter 138
Advertisement
Xia Wanyuan frowned when she heard Prince Charlie's words.
China had a long history. A long time ago, transportation was inconvenient, and people traveled by horse-riding. Furthermore, they would train horses in large numbers and use them as combat horses to increase the combat ability of the army.
Even the Great Xia Dynasty a thousand years ago had a fully formed cavalry.
The history of the Eagle Kingdom was not even half that of China. When China's civilization was brilliant and open, they were still eating raw meat and drinking blood. Now, they were showing off their superiority with horsemanship.
"Prince Charlie, I've long heard that your riding skills are excellent. I wonder if I have the honor of asking you for advice?"
Before Jun Shiling could speak, Xia Wanyuan spoke leisurely.
Everyone present looked at Xia Wanyuan in surprise.
Other than Jun Shiling and Lin Jing, everyone else had an incredulous expression.
There was a reason why Prince Charlie dared to feel so superior in front of Jun Shiling.
In recent years, Prince Charlie had consecutively won the individual championship at the European equestrian championship. He had even represented the Eagle Kingdom to attend global equestrian competitions and had achieved considerable results.
It could be said that Prince Charlie's riding skills were top-notch worldwide.
And now, this woman who looked as gentle as water that Jun Shiling had brought actually wanted to compete with Prince Charlie. Everyone felt that Xia Wanyuan was asking to be humiliated.
Prince Charlie felt that Jun Shiling would never agree to his wife competing with him.
After all, although this was a private event, one party was the controller of the Chinese economy and the other was the royal prince of the world power.
It could be said that they represented the face of their countries. Prince Charlie believed that Jun Shiling would not let a weak woman cause trouble.
"Alright, then represent me and seek advice from Prince Charlie." Who would have thought that Jun Shiling would agree to Xia Wanyuan's suggestion after taking a deep look at her?

"Mr. Jun, won't I be bullying women like this? Why don't we compete?" Prince Charlie did not really want to win Jun Shiling. He only wanted to show off his skills and give Jun Shiling face so that they could draw.
Now that Jun Shiling had asked his wife to compete, wasn't it obvious that he wanted to lose?
"Prince Charlie, do you think that women can't compare to you?"
Prince Charlie could not refute Xia Wanyuan's accusation. "Alright, then please go and change your clothes. I'll wait for you here."
After Xia Wanyuan was brought to change into her riding attire, Jun Shiling sat on a chair and poured himself a cup of tea.
"Mr. Jun, do you want to consider it again?" Prince Charlie was arrogant and felt that it was meaningless to compare himself to a woman.
"Prince Charlie, you should worry about whether you can win or not." Jun Shiling didn't look worried at all, as if he was confident that Xia Wanyuan would win.
"But…" Before Prince Charlie could finish his sentence, he saw Xia Wanyuan walk towards them after changing.
The attire for the equestrian competition was extremely experienced. Xia Wanyuan was dressed in a simple white knight suit. A pair of high boots made her legs look straight and slender. Her top was tucked into the waist of her pants, outlining the perfect waistline and making her look slender.
Her long, seaweed-like hair was neatly tied into a ponytail. Xia Wanyuan, who was slowly walking over with a horsewhip in hand, made one instantly think of the word Queen.
Amazing ~" Prince Charlie couldn't help but sigh from the bottom of his heart.
If one were to say that when he first saw Xia Wanyuan, she was as graceful as water, then now that she was dressed in a knight's uniform, the valiant Xia Wanyuan was like a sharp sword that was about to be unsheathed.

Everyone present was stunned, except for Jun Shiling.
Looking at Xia Wanyuan's slender waist that was outlined by the close-fitting knight suit and her slender legs, a hint of displeasure flashed across Jun Shiling's eyes. If he had known, he wouldn't have let her go.
"Please." Xia Wanyuan shrugged slightly and invited Prince Charlie to the venue.
"Okay." Prince Charlie nimbly mounted the horse and looked at Xia Wanyuan below. "Madam Jun, do you need help getting on the horse's back?"
Xia Wanyuan did not reply. Instead, she stepped on the stirrups with her left foot and held the reins. Her right foot drew a beautiful arc in the air and she sat steadily on the horse.
Prince Charlie's eyes turned serious. He was an experienced person. From Xia Wanyuan's casual and natural actions, he could tell that her riding skills were definitely very profound.
"I didn't expect Madam Jun to be so accomplished. I won't be polite anymore."
"Go ahead." Xia Wanyuan used all her strength to raise the horsewhip, and the horse under her flew out like an arrow leaving the bow.
Everyone was so frightened that their hair stood on end. Even Jun Shiling stood up worriedly.
Normally, people on horseback would ride their horses slowly at the beginning. After adjusting their state with the horses, they would enter the competition state.
No one would ride their horses the moment they arrived, let alone at such a fast speed. The staff only felt a breeze before they disappeared.
"Quick, inform the emergency team!!" The person in charge of the racecourse was so frightened that his heart clenched. Oh my god, that was Madam Jun!!!
With this speed, he didn't even dare to imagine how Madam Jun would fall, nor did he dare to imagine how dark his future would be. He immediately broke out in a cold sweat and went to inform the rescue team with trembling legs.
The moment Xia Wanyuan rushed out, Jun Shiling clenched his fists and stood up. However, after squinting slightly and looking at her for a while, Jun Shiling let go of his tightly clenched hands and sat back on the chair.
Prince Charlie was shocked at first, but after a while, his eyes were filled with admiration.
It had been a long time since Xia Wanyuan had ridden a horse. Just as she held the horsewhip, her heart leaped with joy. The horse galloped across the boundless plains, and the wind whistled past Xia Wanyuan's ears.
In just a minute, Xia Wanyuan had run nearly two kilometers. The horse under her was of excellent quality, and it was extremely comfortable to ride.
Thinking that it was time to go back, Xia Wanyuan pulled on the reins and returned the way she came.
The person in charge, who was about to cry from fright, forced himself to calm down when he saw that Jun Shiling and Prince Charlie were extremely calm.
In the eyes of the person in charge, it seemed like a century had passed in the short minute. Finally, a small white dot appeared in the distance.
The tall horse flew over, its speed as swift as the wind. However, Xia Wanyuan, who was on the horse's back, did not look the slightest bit disheveled. Instead, she looked valiant and heroic, like a white poplar, tall and slender.
"Madam Jun, you're good at riding." Xia Wanyuan ran back and forth. This time, Prince Charlie's eyes were filled with seriousness as he pointed at the obstacle ahead. "Pass through that obstacle zone. Whoever reaches the finish line first will win."
"Yes!"
