Chapter 126: Point of Contention

Lei Xing looked at the horse in front of her and then back at Princess Nalan, "Where are the steps?"

Princess Nalan raised an eyebrow, "Steps? You can't carry steps with you everywhere. That's just unnecessary baggage. You need to learn how to mount the saddle on your own. It's easy. Here, watch me." She finished then vaulted onto the horse, then hopped down and said to Lei Xing. "See? Now your turn." 

Lei Xing raised an eyebrow at the horse and thought what she said made sense, "Make sure to hold it steady." She said, Princess Nalan held up the reins to reassure her.

Lei Xing took a deep breath then gripped onto the saddle, put her leg in and vaulted up but only ended up landing on the saddle with her belly. She tried to get her other leg up and across but was having trouble. She heard Princess Nalan chuckling and frowned.

"Lei Xing, your mounting technique is quite unique." Princess Nalan commented.
