Donkey Trouble Volume IV: The Prodigal Son of the Capital 66, the unlucky mud horse and the sparrow

The mud horse is muddy, and I don't know the real dragon posture;

Sparrows and flat-haired animals, how do you know how to stir up the gambling game?

The days of the prodigal son's irritability are all times of bad luck;

When he becomes a king, he becomes a legend.

After a few years, Shi Jingtang passed the throne to his son Shi Chonggui for a short time, and the throne was taken away by Liu Zhiyuan, the envoy of Hedong Jiedu, and the country was called Houhan. Liu Zhiyuan passed it on to his son Liu Chengyou, known as Emperor Yin of the Later Han Dynasty.

Zhao Hongyin's monkey jumped back and forth like a head, commanded by the forbidden army of the Later Jin Dynasty and then commanded by the forbidden army of the Later Han Dynasty.

Zhao Hongyin has changed from the other party's "enemy" to the other party's "loyal minister" many times in more than ten years, and the story here is difficult to write in 1.8 million words, so it can only be abbreviated.

During the reign of Emperor Qianyou of the Later Han Dynasty, Zhao Kuangyin was already eighteen years old and married his wife. The next year, she gave birth to a son named Dezhao.

Although the He family is beautiful and virtuous, Zhao Kuangyin is already surrounded by beautiful women, except for venting to him once in a while, he doesn't take her in his eyes at all. Although he has become a father, he still has an inferior nature, and he runs horses and archery, frolicks, gambling, and fights with a group of powerful children all day long. Fighting to win is strong, brave and ruthless, and the uninhibited character is more prominent.

Among a group of children of a family, his best friends were Wang Xianqi and Shi Shouxin.

Wang Xianqi's ancestral home is in Liaoxi, his father is Zhao Hongyin's subordinate, he has lived in the army with his parents since he was a child, and he and Zhao Kuangyin were friends who fought together and made trouble when they were in Luoyang's horse camp. Zhao Hongyin switched to the Later Jin Dynasty, and his father moved to Bianjing with Zhao Hongyin, and of course he also became a Bianjing city household registration with his father.

Wang Xianqi is two years older than Zhao Kuangyin, because Zhao Kuangyin's father is a high official, and he is not as powerful as Zhao Kuangyin's fists, he does not dare to be big, so he has always called himself a younger brother. Zhao Kuangyin knew that he was old and did not correct him, so he regarded himself as a big brother, and called him down to his superiors like his father did to his father.

Shi Shouxin, Kaifeng Junyi people. Grandfather Shi Rui and father Shi Kang were both officials in the court. Although he has just turned seventeen years old, his martial arts are not low, and he is friends with Zhao Kuangyin and Wang Xianqi.

On this day, the three of them went out to play together, and met a young man who knew each other on the road leading a horse, and Zhao Kuangyin wanted to ride and play.

Zhao Kuangyin called the young man who led the horse, and after talking a few words, he proposed to ride a horse for a walk. The boy refused: "This is a raw horse that my family just bought, and it hasn't been trained yet." My dad specially explained that he could only pull it for a walk, and don't ride it!"

The young man was telling the truth, Zhao Kuangyin was used to being domineering, so he thought that he didn't give face, and scolded: "I'm grass, Lao Tzu has seen a lot of horses, and I haven't heard of them that can't be ridden! Your father won't let you ride because your riding skills are too low, I'm afraid you'll break your leg! I'm a big horse, and I have to be honest when I see any strange horses!"

The young man saw that Zhao Kuangyin insisted on riding, but he didn't dare to refuse, so he had to say: "Big brother must ride, wait a minute, I'll go home and get you a saddle!"

Before he turned around, Zhao Kuangyin had already jumped on horseback.

"If the eldest brother rides, don't blame me if he breaks it!"

The young man's voice didn't land, the horse had already raised his neck, spread his four hooves, and ran out with Zhao Kuangyin on his back.

Zhao Kuangyin loves to ride horses since he was a child, and his riding skills are indeed not low, but in the past, he rode well-trained war horses in the army. The leg is clamped between the horse's belly, just like the later generations drive a car and step on the accelerator, the harder it is, the more the horse gallops. He was in a hurry, where could he restrain him? He had to let the horse run wildly down the street and rush to the city gate.

At that time, the main gate of the city gate was not opened, and only a small doorway on one side allowed pedestrians to enter and exit. The small door hole is no more than six feet high, and the horse leans over to drill, Zhao Kuangyin wants to dodge, how can he have time? "Bang", his forehead collided with the lintel, and he fell off the horse with his back facing the sky.

Zhao Kuangyin fell to the ground and couldn't get up for a long time, touched his forehead, and was swollen. He was ashamed and annoyed, but the horse was snatched by himself, and the young man had made it clear beforehand that he was angry but not easy to attack, so he could only consider himself unlucky.

Wang Xianqi saw that Zhao Kuangyin was in a bad mood, so he found a way to make him happy. He led Zhao Kuangyin and Shi Shouxin into a ruined temple, stopped in front of a mud horse, and said: "I have heard people say that this mud horse is very spiritual and can recognize people's noble and low! Whoever can move on a horse will be a star in the sky and will be a great official in the future." Let's take turns riding and try it and see if it works!"

Shi Shouxin climbed up first, and of course the horse didn't move. Wang Xianqi also pretended to climb up and try, but of course the horse still didn't move. When Zhao Kuangyin rode on, Wang Xianqi secretly asked Shi Shouxin to hold the horse's legs behind and shake vigorously.

Zhao Kuangyin was really blessed and noble, and he was so happy that he shouted and screamed on the horse. It wasn't until a large chunk of the mud on the mud horse's legs fell off and "Hulong" collapsed that the three of them stopped.

Zhao Kuangyin was hit on the instep of his foot by a piece of dirt on the mud horse, grinning in pain, and his heart became even more irritable.

Wang Xianqi saw that he was trying to make Zhao Kuangyin happy, but it made him feel worse, and thought that Zhao Kuangyin was most interested in gambling, so he proposed to gamble.

Zhao Kuangyin went out with gambling equipment, and looked for a dilapidated house in the plum forest outside the temple, and the three of them started gambling.

People are irritable and infocused, and they will lose more and win less when they come to gamble.

Zhao Kuangyin's pimple on his head and the bag smashed on his foot hurt for a while, and he was already uncomfortable, and because he had ridden the mud horse down just now, he thought it was not a good sign, and he was thinking about it in his heart, so he always lost more and won less. Hands don't slip, complain about the sleeves, long sleeves of the jacket, complain about the father, complain about the scissors, complain about the blacksmith with scissors, and the conceited person always has to find a lot of reasons when things don't go well.

Outside the house where the three of them gambled was Merlin, there were a lot of sparrows, of course, they were always chirping, Zhao Kuangyin was unlucky, so he complained about the harassment of birds and sparrows, and irritably put the gambling equipment away, got up outside the house, and lifted the bricks on the wall of the house is a mess.

Of course, Wang Xianqi and Shi Shouxin followed his wishes, and also said that those sparrows were chirping and stirring up the luck of the eldest brother's cards, lifting the bricks, and helping to smash them. It's a pity that not long after the plum fruit was set, it was smashed into broken branches and broken leaves, and the green fruit with the size of a little finger fell to the ground.

The garden hut was already dilapidated, the wall was about to fall, the three of them picked up the bricks, and in less than a moment, the wall collapsed with a bang.

When the three of them saw that they had knocked down the garden house, and that Qingguo had been knocked to the ground, they were afraid that people would find out and find trouble, so they turned around and left.

This is Zhao Kuangyin's claim that the emperor "rode a horse into the city unharmed", and the gods secretly protected it; "the mud horse flew away at the order", and the Son of Heaven showed a vision; "the finches issued an alarm", and the birds also guarded the story.

The three of them played all morning, ran back to the city, and felt hungry, so they found a restaurant, passed the cup and changed the lamp, guessed the fist, and ate and drank.

After eating for a long time, the three of them were a little drunk.

Zhao Kuangyin said: "I'm grass, I'm really fucking back today, the horse bullies, the sparrows are also bullied, even such a strong mud horse, I rode the leg and broke it! I'm annoyed, where to be happy!"

"There's a new casino on Optimistic Street, let's play!" Mr. Wang said.

"Today's back, bad luck, don't go!" Zhao Kuangyin shook his head.

Wang Xianqi said: "Find Tao'er, let her sing music for the eldest brother to relieve her boredom! Or, find Qiu'er, his dance is delicious enough!"

"Annoying, I'm upset today, I'm not interested in playing with them!" Zhao Kuangyin still shook his head.

Wang Xianqi couldn't think of any fun in a hurry, so he had to shut up.

"Bianjing City is just a few broken places, and it is still the same as running around. It's been a boring day!I'm annoyed!I'm annoyed!," Zhao Kuangyin roared irritably.

Shi Shouxin said: "I heard that there is a fun place, but I'm afraid we won't be able to get in." ”

Wang Xianqi said: "Where is the eldest brother in Bianjing City who can't enter? The Jinman Hall is so difficult to enter, and the eldest brother has been there several times!"

Zhao Kuangyin impatiently reprimanded: "Where is it, say it quickly, don't sell it to him!"
