Chapter 904: Run Wild

On the fourth day of the lunar month, it is the day of the annual hunting ceremony of the Great Sealing Kingdom, and the young sons and ladies are very much looking forward to the arrival of this day.

On this day, the emperor will review the riding and archery skills of several princes and nobles in Beijing, as well as the young soldiers in the army, and take this opportunity to select talents and promote good generals.

On this day, the young ladies in Beijing will have the opportunity to see more promising young people and see their sassy and heroic appearance, which may be another golden and jade relationship.

Before dawn, Lin Wan was dragged up by the green willows, sat in front of the dresser, smeared, and dressed in bundles. But today's makeup and clothing are very different from how they dress up in normal times. Because today I am going to ride a horse and shoot arrows, of course, it is better to dress lightly.

Lin Wan opened her eyes, looked at the pretty girl in the bronze mirror, couldn't help but smile proudly, and said, "It's still simple and refreshing, it's comfortable to look at!"

There was no fat powder on the white face, only some Bing'er's homemade rose oil ointment, which was mainly used to moisturize the skin and keep out the cold. Her hair was tied up high and she was tied in a beautiful ponytail. The eyebrows are thickly drawn, they are long sword eyebrows, and with a pair of smart and lively big eyes, they look particularly hearty and heroic.

Wearing a light yellow short-sleeved jacket, wearing a pair of white breeches designed by Lin Wan herself, a wide bright yellow belt buttoned around her waist, and a pair of black riding boots on her feet, she looked a lot taller.

Then put on a double-sided two-color short pile cape, the inside of the cloak is black, the outside is white, and it looks particularly bright.

Of course, Lin Wan also wears silkworm phoenix feathers close to her body, not only to keep warm and keep out the cold, but more importantly, to be safe and prevent any dangerous situations that may occur.

Lin Wan tied a sleeve arrow in her sleeve, and the hairpin in her hair was the wooden hairpin that Qiu Ling gave her that was carved with begonia flowers and hidden mysteries. On the other side, there was a small medicine bottle prepared for her by Wang Qi in her sleeve, and all kinds of poisons and antidotes were available.

Everything was cleaned up, Qingtong and Wang Qi carried a small burden on their backs, and followed Lin Wan out of the west wing.

The genius is bright, but the courtyard of the Autumn Garden is already full of people. Today, everyone is dressed up energetically, looking very energetic and in high spirits.

In particular, Kapok Zi has already put on their riding clothes of the Northern Chen Kingdom, with handsome eyebrows, and every move looks more heroic, showing the true colors of the grassland heroine.

Jin Ruoxin changed her usual gentle appearance, wearing a white riding suit, and her long hair was tied behind her head, revealing her deep eyebrows and eyes, which was even more exotic.

Ximen Yuqing is still dressed in white, Changfeng is also wearing a white suit like Jin Ruoxin, and Jin Haoran also deliberately wears white in order to match the outfit of the three of them. Four handsome men and women in white clothes stood together, which was really eye-catching and particularly dazzling.

Bei Xiao Nan, like Kapok, wears the costumes of the Northern Chen Kingdom, mainly in the true color of animal fur, with a slightly darker tone.

The light yellow on Lin Wan's body poured into the most vivid color among them, like a small yellow flower in the ice and snow.

All seven of them did not ride in a carriage today, but all rode away. Therefore, Lin Wan only brought Qingtong with him this time. And Wang Qi will be with Bing'er, and after noon, there will not be many people at the East City Gate, and then take Qin Feng's carriage to Tingxi Liyuan.

Red Sail had already been led by the gale, and with several other horses, stood obediently in a corner of the yard.

Bei Xiao Nan and Kapok Zi had already brought their usual mounts, all of which were sturdy and tall horses, and they also gave Jin Haoran and Jin Ruoxin a white horse suitable for them. Standing in the midst of such a group of tall horses, Red Sail does not look inferior at all, but even more dexterous and unique.

Just when the sky just released a glimmer of light, Lin Wan, Jin Ruoxin, Jin Haoran, Changfeng, Ximen Yuqing, Bei Xiaonan, Kapoanzi, as well as Qingtong and Jiang Hai, a group of nine people rode horses and headed east.

Xiangfu Street, which has always been lively, is more popular today because it is close to the East City Gate, and there are already vendors coming out to sell before dawn. Fortunately, Lin Wan and the others chose to ride horses today, otherwise they might not be able to reach the Eastern Suburbs Horse Farm by noon.

Changfeng led the way in front, picking small alleys with few people, but these horses were still useless, so they could only follow the crowd and carriage and move forward slowly.

The farther east, the more people there were, and by the time Lin Wan and the others arrived at the East City Gate, the sky was already bright. From a distance, there were two long queues at the east gate, with a long queue of carriages on one side and hundreds of young men and women on horseback on the other.

The east gate was still closed, and no release had begun. It is said that after the emperor took the prince and princesses out of the city this morning, General Liu ordered someone to close the city gate, and then open the city gate when the emperor arrived at the eastern suburbs of the racecourse.

Lin Wan and the others did not stop, but continued to move forward. Skirting the crowd, he rode his horse to the gate of the city. Ximen Yuqing rode on a horse and commanded one of the lieutenants guarding the city: "Let General Liu come over, and say that the prince and Princess Wanxin, the sixth prince of Dongli Kingdom, the eldest princess of Qinxin, as well as the prince of Beichen and the lord of Mujun are here." ”

The lieutenant general had seen Ximen Yuqing and Jin Haoran from a distance before, and as soon as he heard the name reported by Ximen Yuqing, he immediately bowed and saluted, and responded: "Yes, the last general will go and invite General Liu, please ask His Royal Highness Prince Ximen to wait!" After speaking, he quickly turned around and went up to the city tower.

After a while, Liu Shijun strode down from the city tower, clasped his fists and saluted Ximen Yuqing and the others, and said: "The last general, Liu Shijun, see His Royal Highness Prince Ximen, His Royal Highness Prince Beichen, His Royal Highness Princess Qinxin, His Royal Highness the Sixth Prince of Dongli, His Royal Highness Princess Wanxin, and Lord Mujun. ”

Ximen Yuqing smiled slightly and said, "General Liu doesn't have to be polite, please open the city gate and let us go." ”

Liu Shijun shook his head and explained: "His Royal Highness Prince Ximen, there are too many people going out of the city today, and there are many people who are going to go out of the city today, and we can't check it, and the city gate can't be opened now." However, you can go out first from the small door, and if you are wronged, please go this way with the general. As he spoke, he made a gesture of please, led Ximen Yuqing and the others to the right of the city tower.

Going around to the foot of the mountain on the right, I saw a small door that could only pass through one person and one horse, which had been opened, and two rows of well-trained soldiers stood straight on both sides of the small door, watching Ximen Yuqing and others pass through the small door one by one, and then closed the big iron door with a "bang".

Out of the East City Gate, there were no pedestrians on the road at all, and Lin Wan and the others could finally let their mounts run wildly.

The sound of hooves answered, and the nine horses galloped happily towards the eastern suburbs of the racecourse.
