Under the golden sunshine, glowing with boundless radiance, two towering gates opened to both sides. Some people on top of the city wall anxiously looked in the distance.
Moments later, they saw a few young people riding demonic beasts and rushing towards the city gates. They were as fast as lightning, arriving at the door in the blink of an eye.
They were led by a black-haired youth in red, who had a bow in one hand and the reins held firmly with the other as he rode a magic foal with a black horn. There was an evil smile on his beautiful and peerless face when he arrived at the gate first.
After him were several young masters who were full of vitality and an air of arrogance.
“Aiya, the crown prince has returned. Go and tell the prince and princess!” The housekeeper of the palace, who had been anxiously waiting by the city walls, hurriedly ordered the youths around him to quickly go back.
“Okay!” A boy replied. He turned and disappeared from the city tower. Passers-by on both sides of the broad White Jade Street couldn’t help but stop to cheer, and the many ladies threw their flowers toward the youth on the foal. However, these spiritual foals were roaring by, and the flowers could not fall on them.
This didn’t stop the girls’ infatuation though.
“Those people just now are really arrogant. In the Purple Emperor’s Heavenly Capital, they dare to gallop on demonic beasts. What are their identities?”
Upon hearing this, the person next to him knew that he was from the outside, and he explained while chuckling, “You don’t know about this. These are the most noble and respected generation of youths in the dynasty. The boy in white riding the red foal is Gu Ruyu, the son of the Gu family. The boy in yellow robes riding the black foal is Little Marquis Qi, and the one at the front is the youngest prince of King Ye, Yan Tianhen!”
After listening to the identities of these three people, the foreign visitor gasped. “So it was them.”
Although Qi Feiqing ran fast, he still caught some flowers thrown at him and threw a wink at the girl.
He raised his voice. “You two are so boring. What are you doing running so fast? They wanted to give me flowers.”
Yan Tianhen was running in front, but when he heard this, he turned around and smirked. “If you’re not afraid of being surrounded, then you should slow down. Anyway, I have to slip away first.”
Qi Feiqing asked, “Will you directly go back to the palace?”
Yan Tianhen answered, “Yes.”
Qi Feiqing gave a Tch. “Would you like to come out and play in the evening?”
Yan Tianhen replied, “Yeah right. My father has already sent an order to urge me three times. I’m sure I’ll be beaten up when I go back this time. I don’t think you guys will see me for a while.”
“Hahaha–” Qi Feiqing laughed gloatingly, “I thought you weren’t afraid of anything.”
“What the fuck!” Qi Feiqing’s face suddenly turned green, and he almost fell off his horse. He was shocked and angrily said, “You guys are going to get me killed!”
“Hahahahaha!” Yan Tianhen laughed happily.
Gu Ruyu watched the two people bicker next to each other, and very calmly continued to ride his horse home.
Towards the inner city, flowers suddenly fell from the sky, and the pink and red were lightly spread on the ground. It turned into a road paved with petals.
Yan Tianhen felt a terrible premonition in his heart and immediately tightened the reins to get the magic foal to stop.
Two front hooves were raised high, and the sharp single horn on its head drew a silver arc. After a loud cry, Yan Tianhen pulled the reins firmly and let the magic foal settle down. The other two people also stopped.
After a million flowers, a veiled girl with long hair and a slim waist descended from the sky, her clothes fluttering around her. She looked very charming.
Yan Tianhen cursed her mother in his heart.
When Qi Feiqing looked at this spectacle, he said sympathetically, “That girl came to see you again. I can’t help you, brother. This Gege will leave first.”
“You fucking stop.” The longbow in Yan Tianhen’s hand turned into a whip and immediately wrapped around Qi Feiqing’s neck.
Qi Feiqing couldn’t slip away, so he had to stop with a bitter face. The girl had already landed on the ground.
She raised her eyebrows and smiled at Yan Tianhen. “Tianhen Gege, you’ve returned?”
Yan Tianhen nodded modestly and said, “I haven’t seen Princess Yuqing in a long time, but I didn’t expect to meet her as soon as I came back.”
But Princess Yuqing didn’t even bother with the pleasantries. She raised her voice, “This princess has been waiting for you here. Can’t you see the flowers I spilled for you? Do you think just anyone deserves these flowers?”
Qi Feiqing laughed. “Since Princess Yuqing has especially prepared them for Tianhen, then we won’t spoil these flowers. It’s best that we leave first.”
Princess Yuqing nodded and gave him a meaningful glance, as she said with satisfaction, “Very perceptive. I have something to say to His Highness Tianhen. If you are smart, you should leave quickly.”
Although Yan Tianhen loosened the whip clamped around Qi Feiqing’s neck, he didn’t mean to let them go early.
