Chapter 12 The sacrificial turmoil is endless
Behind the training ground is a hundred miles of woods, and then there are mountains, and a small palace is deliberately built in front of the training ground, which is said to be small, and it is more than enough for so many emperors and nobles to live in it, and the living needs in it are also readily available. Yun Yi washed up and lay on the recliner in the arranged room, Xiao Yiyun went out after washing, Yun Yi adhered to the consistent style of doing things, suppressed her curiosity and stayed in the room obediently.
When Yun Yi woke up in a daze, it was already past the third watch, and Xiao Yiyun had just come back at this time.
"Why don't you go to bed?"
Usually Yun Yi and Xiao Yiyun sleep on a soft couch, but when they go out of the house, in case someone inquires or bumps into them and finds out that they have different beds in the same room, this is actually nothing, but both of them are people who don't want to do much, and it is inevitable that there will be speculation and gossip when they are discovered, so the two decided to sleep together during the sacrifice.
"I saw that you didn't come back and wanted to wait for you to come, but I didn't expect to fall asleep first. Yun Yi stuck out his tongue.
Xiao Yiyun was stunned for a moment, and only said, "Sleep." ”
The two of them were lying on the bed, Yun Yi was a little nervous, in the national temple, the male and female guests slept in different rooms, even the husband and wife were separated, mainly because they were afraid that someone would disturb the purity of the Buddhist door, and today was the first time they slept in the same bed. Yun Yi slept enough before, but now that she has enough sleep and is nervous, Yun Yi has rare insomnia. Listening to Xiao Yiyun's long breathing, Yun Yi secretly turned over to face him, seeing that his hand was still pressed on the quilt, Yun Yi stood up and gently put his hand into the quilt.
"Huh~" Yun Yi let out a long exhale after helping him cover the quilt, and raised his eyes to a pair of black eyes, Yun Yi was startled, a little at a loss, and said embarrassedly: "That, I saw your hands outside, and now it's a little cold, and it's not good if it's cold, so I, I, I just made my own opinion, you, I slept." Unable to make sense of what he said, Yun Yi simply covered his head and pretended to be asleep.
Xiao Yiyun opened his eyes and looked at the top of the bed, he has always slept lightly, and when he was in the same room with Yun Yi, he slept less at first, but he slowly got used to the breath of others in the room and slept normally, and even slept more because of the influence of her good sleep, but today there is another person next to the pillow It is different, he is not used to and does not like people to be so close to him, so close distance makes him very uncomfortable, although there is a piece in the middle of the quilt they cover.
It was not a short time to lie down, but Xiao Yiyun was not sleepy, so he also knew that the people around him were not asleep, and he knew very well that she turned over to look at herself and covered herself with a quilt.
"What I said counts, you don't have to be afraid of me dealing with you and deliberately curry favor with me, you don't want and don't need to do anything superfluous. After a pause, "You don't have to wait for me in the future, I will take care of my clothes, just do your own thing." "Maybe it's too close to her, and it's not a good thing to be too close to someone who will eventually go to a strange place.
Yun Yi pulled down the quilt on his head, turned his back to him and closed his eyes slightly, and gently answered yes, and then the two of them were silent. Yun Yi's eyes were a little sour, although she didn't cry, but this also made her very annoyed, she rarely cried, even if she wanted to cry, it was very rare, but at this time there was a trace of the urge to cry, although it was shallow, but it was also inexplicable, just like the feeling of being uncomfortable for some reason at the moment, she couldn't control it, all the good mood accompanied by his few words disappeared, and she never thought that one day someone would affect her so far.
The next day, the festival of sacrifices.
The morning of the sacrificial festival is to observe the training, and when Yun Yi got up in the morning, Xiao Yiyun was already dressed neatly, which made her want to ignore what he said last night, Yun Yi was a little lost, in fact, she was a princess, and she shouldn't have done these things, but she just had a feeling of not being needed inexplicably.
In order to cater to the atmosphere, basically the young girls and ladies changed into heroic riding clothes when they got up that morning, Yun Yi had prepared a blue and a black riding costume before, and originally wanted to wear blue, but when she was in a bad mood, she chose a black one to wear.
Yun Yi is tall and tall, with a graceful posture, and a black power suit looks even more heroic, plus many official ladies and young masters who only hear her reputation and don't see her are very curious about her, and there are many people who want to see her jokes, so after going out, Yun Yi has so many eyes on her body that she can't burn a hole, most of them are either from amazed to surprised or from surprised to amazing, the former is the look in the eyes after knowing her identity before, and the latter is the performance when she knows her identity and sees people clearly.
Yun Yi's already bad mood is even worse after being stared at like this, the worst thing is that Emperor Yongsheng brought Su Heng here in an eventful way, and brought it as a friend of other countries, you said that you brought a foreigner to the sacrificial festival of the eastern country to engage in wool, knowing that Xiao Yiyun and Su Heng have been at odds since they met, and the emperor of the eastern border is really doing everything for the sake of the Han people.
At this time, this Su Heng looked at her with a ghostly expression, which made her very unhappy, and she originally wanted to leave with Xiao Yiyun, but she was not afraid of death and ran over to stop her and asked her excitedly if she was really Yun Yi, Yun Yi lowered her head and rolled her eyes, but when she looked up, she replied yes with a smile on her face, but the guy had a shocked expression, and then angrily accused her of deceiving people.
"May I ask where Su Gongzi Yunyi lied to people. ”
"You're obviously not like this, you didn't look like this when you were in Anqing. ”
"Then, according to what Su Gongzi said, this concubine is not Miss Yun. ”
"No, you should be Yunyi, but you didn't look like this before, what's going on with your face?
"Yi Rong? Su Gongzi wants to go crazy, when you first saw this concubine, this concubine was allergic to her face, this is what this concubine should look like. After saying that, Yun Yi arrogantly raised her legs and left, leaving Su Heng with a sluggish face standing in place, seeing Su Heng's constipated expression, Yun Yi was in a bad mood.
Su Heng stood in place, and when he reacted, he was angry, looking at the graceful figure in the distance, and breathed a sigh of relief in his heart: This is good, he has spread all over the world what an ugly woman Yun Yi is, and wants the whole world to come to see her jokes, but now it is he who has become a joke. But then his anger disappeared again, he forgot about a person, I don't know if Shangguan Sicong really doesn't know Yun Yi's true appearance, I don't know if he will regret his marriage, Yun Yi's small appearance is stronger than Liu Xiangxiang.
On the school field, the general with the troops has not yet arrived and is a young and capable person, after practicing for more than an hour, it is an equestrian show, with the banner changing out of the team with different words to make the emperor feel good, looking at the words spelled out one by one, Yun Yi may praise a sentence with ideas, but now the mood is not good to see anything pleasing to the eye, looking at the galloping horses all over the field, Yun Yi resisted the urge to yawn and secretly rolled her eyes, and then pretended to focus on the school field, and the two brothers and sisters who have been with Yun Yi for many years silently wiped their sweat in their hearts: Miss is in a bad mood, God bless no one to mess with her~
In the afternoon, the selection of royal attendants began, and those who passed the assessment in the training ground could enter the Praetorian Guard, and at this time, it was in this group of people who had passed the assessment and were about to be incorporated into the Praetorian Guard to select the most top-notch to join the Royal Guard, some of these people would be given to the royal nobles, and most of them would become the imperial guards, and the status of the imperial guards was not low, and many noble children would also compete to show their faces in front of the emperor.
The competition adopts a point system, with the top 10 scores ranging from 10 to 1, and this is true for all items. This afternoon is a horse archery competition.
Donglin is most important to Yun Yi is that Donglin has a special women's army, which is also related to the founding queen's successful leadership of a women's army, and now the women's army is only qualified for this training team, and there will be special people to train the women's army here, excellent and men can become royal guards, and they can also become royal guards, and there is also a women's team of 100 people in the Praetorian Guard, which is also to avoid the trouble of men inconvenient to search for female dependents.
Other women who fail to pass the assessment will not go directly to the battlefield, and will generally be sent to various places at home and abroad as a detailed work to collect intelligence, or assigned to local places to be female catchers, and some are sent to transport grain, cook on the battlefield or be medical women, in Yunyi's words, they are army logistics personnel. Although men are still inferior to women, in this era, it is good to have such a patriarchal society. The women's army numbered less than one-tenth of the men's, and they did not participate in the morning demonstrations, but they participated in the afternoon competitions, although the men and women were scored separately.
The afternoon competition starts with the men, first run a few laps to show equestrianism, and then shoot arrows with difficult movements on the horse, the arrow target is 100 meters away, the difficulty is not small, the more you can win the applause on the horse, the greater the chance of being in the front, of course, not that the equestrian is good enough, just imagine, a horse is so good that the arrow misses in the end, and how likely it is to be booed in the end.
The men's competition was very exciting, the competition ended in a cheer, Yun Yi couldn't help but admire this high-level competition, but some people couldn't help but look at her well, and even made a statement to the emperor when preparing for the women's competition, so that the god of war in the east could be demonstrated, the god of war in the east can be regarded as relying on the style of the horse, shooting a few arrows, is the god of war and horseback archery necessarily related? ! Yun Yi is very unhappy about this.
Xiao Yiyun refused lightly on the grounds that her body was not cool and it was inconvenient to ride a horse, Yun Yi looked at a group of people who covered their mouths and snickered and looked angry, and the next moment, she broke out, but instead of being angry, she said with a smile: "Your Majesty, Lord Li must have wanted the prince to demonstrate because he didn't enjoy the competition, why do you need the prince to come out with such a small request, and I implore the emperor to allow Yun Yi to demonstrate on the stage." ”
"Haha, Princess Qi is proud, I am accurate. ”
Someone on the field was about to change the arrow target, and the woman was much closer than the arrow target, but the Lord Li still didn't let go, saying that since she appeared in place of the prince, the arrow target naturally had to come according to the man's.
"Lean on it. Yun Yi couldn't help but burst into foul language.
