Chapter Title: The Wonders of Living (2)

Chapter no. 8

(Qin Lushan's POV)

I was on my way home, wanting to have lunch with my mom and my sister. But on the way I was joined by companions from the imperial family. When we arrived on the residence it felt strange, it was usually silent.

\"Why is your residence so silent?\" the fifth prince, Wang Shaoxi asked as we entered Qin Family's residence.

The third prince; Wang Ximen, fourth prince; Wang Yuanzhen, fifth prince; Wang Shaoxi and second princess; Wang Roushi accompanied me home. They said they are too bored to stay in the palace and asked to accompany me home. I agreed since they are very close with my eldest sister who became the emperor's favored concubine and close to me since childhood.

\"I don't know, my mom's super busy at the moment and I do not know my sister's whereabouts. While my father is usually at the court attending matters related to the economy.\"

\"Lushan we must meet your sister ah!\" the fifth prince insisted

\"My sister is only 14 years old, she must be engrossed in studying at the library. My father kept talking about how good my sister is doing with her studies these past few days. And gladly, since she woke up she has been acting different.\"

\"Greetings to the princes, the princess and to you young master.\" butler Zhang ambled beside us

\"Butler Zhang where is Ze'er?\"

\"Young master, the third young miss is riding a horse at the military arrays on the field of the second master. I am to report to the madame about her activities in case an accident occurs.\"

\"To the field riding a horse? Whose horse is she riding?\" I asked suspiciously, my sister has never learned horse riding and no one could have taught her how.

\"Young master it is the master's horse Maximus. The young miss wanted to go horse riding all of a sudden and she chose a horse in the stables earlier. But none of us thought Maximus would agree with her riding on\"

\"Impossible--\" Wang Ximen exclaimed

\"How can she ride Maximus?\"

It was known in the whole kingdom that only my father can stake a claim as the master of that horse. And that horse has been loyal to my father for years now, not letting anyone ride him. Not even me or my brother.

I hurriedly run to the field and everyone follow behind me. The soldiers are on standby, and even the guards of the manor. The faces of most men are in a daze. I scanned the crowd and saw my sister.

Maximus is galloping on its fastest speed, and my sister is throwing daggers at target boards like she's only playing. Eventually, she improved the arrays scattered on the field. Where did she learn to throw daggers like that and how has she maintained a good balance?

\"Is that your sister?\" Wang Shaoxi asked

Even I cannot answer his question.

\"Yuanzhen, is she even on par with you?\" Wang Ximen asked

The fourth prince stared at the girl who's riding on a horse.

\"I think she's breaking your record Yuanzhen. Look at her reflexes, and the speed of the horse running through the field. She can't be an amateur right?\" the princess has spoken

But my sister never learned anything. My father hasn't taught her any horse riding skill and she never had a professional teacher. So where did her skills came from?

\"I want to duel with her\" the three of us stared at Wang Yuanzhen at the same time.

\"Did I hear it wrongly?\" I asked him

\"No, if my calculations are right she must be above your uncle's level on the battlefield. Surprising isn't it?\" the fourth prince said as he retrieved the sword on his waist and headed straight to the center of the field, where my sister would stop.
