Chapter 114: Horseback riding

The first day of class was very strange, and Mrs. Liao looked at the children who were listening carefully, and there was a smile on her face.

Although there is no concubine surnamed Liao in the palace, Mrs. Liao is still very favored by Emperor Xia Hui, otherwise Mrs. Liao would not have been asked to guide the princes in their homework.

Seeing the eldest prince today, Mrs. Liao didn't think it was strange, and he must have known it from Emperor Xia Hui first.

The eldest prince is now fourteen years old, and it is the first time he has gone to the study to take classes, but he is not like Baili Yanqing, who is at the same level as the third prince.

Baili Yanqing guessed that the eldest prince should have the queen's palace and also study, and Queen Shen should also be a talented girl.

In class, Mrs. Liao praised the eldest prince a few times, and Baili Yanqing noticed that the hands of the three princes were about to pinch off the pen shaft, after all, there was no eldest prince, and the third prince was the most prominent person in the study, but now the sick and weak eldest prince has robbed the limelight of the third prince, and it is strange that the third prince can be convinced.

Because of the first day of class for the eldest prince, coupled with the arrival of a group of family girls, Mrs. Liao also tried to make the course as simple as possible, obviously for the sake of the eldest prince.

This lesson is not about politics or anything, but about filial piety, filial piety is the first, every emperor attaches great importance to filial piety, Emperor Xia Hui is no exception, and Baili Yanqing can feel the importance of ancient filial piety.

Unfilial piety is said to be dead, and even if an official is not filial, he can lose his official position, and if it is serious, he will not talk about it.

But these are all learned by the three princes, and now Mrs. Liao has asked him to re-learn, and the three princes are a little dissatisfied, but they know that Mrs. Liao's meaning must also be the meaning of Emperor Xia Hui.

In any case, although the class was long, there was an hour to go, but it was over, and the oppressive atmosphere did not end with the end of the class.

The third prince is now thirteen years old, only one year younger than the eldest prince, and as soon as the eldest prince appeared. The third prince naturally had a sense of crisis. In the past, the eldest prince's health was not good, but now that he is better and can walk out of the door, the position of the prince may fall to the eldest prince.

In the past, Emperor Xia Hui did not agree to the eldest prince as the crown prince on the grounds that the eldest prince's health was not good.

Both men and women in the Great Xia Kingdom began to discuss marriage at the age of thirteen, and the boys and girls in ancient times were relatively precocious, and today in addition to the prince and Yan Yuheng, there are also children of the clan.

The grandson of Prince Chun. The prince of Qianjun, the grandson of the king of Anjun, and the grandson of the prince of Liguo, these four families are all descendants with higher titles in the Xia Dynasty.

Prince Chun is the Iron Hat King, the second son of Taizu, and the younger brother of Taizong. King Qianjun is the five sons of Taizong, and King Anjun is the son of Shizu.

Duke Li Guo is also in the line of Taizu's son, but the descendants are not angry and join the battle for succession, so he was demoted from the prince to the duke.

The heirs of the Xia Dynasty were not prosperous. The battle in the palace is also the battle for the heir, and for that position, some people will always be lost. And when Emperor Xia Hui ascended the throne, he also took care of his royal brother and some clan princes.

Therefore, Prince Chun, King Qianjun, King Anjun, and Duke Liguo are the only remaining titles of Zongshi. Because when they seized the heir, they stood behind Emperor Xia Hui, retained their titles and glory, and now their descendants and grandchildren have also entered the palace to accompany the prince to study.

The first class is over. The eldest prince left with a bunch of palace servants waiting, and the second session was a riding and archery class, which was impossible for the eldest prince to attend.

The third prince's face was a little unsightly. Although the smile on his face remains the same, his eyes are cold. Several sons and grandchildren are around the three princes, several of them are the same age as the three princes, when the three princes entered the school, Emperor Xia Hui specially ordered several sons and grandsons to enter the palace to accompany the three princes to study together.

Otherwise, the eldest prince was sick, the second prince died, the fourth prince was stupid, and the fifth prince also died, so the third prince went to class alone, and Emperor Xia Hui called the sons and grandsons into the palace to study with the three princes.

The Great Xia Kingdom has a national eunuch, and the children of the clan and the family can enter the country to study, while the children of the poor family have to take the exam, and only those who are excellent can enter the country to study.

Now the six-year-old Sixth Prince has also entered the study to study, but he has been studying for a few days, and the Sixth Prince is born by Li Guifei and raised in the palace of the Queen Mother.

The third prince did not take the six princes in his eyes, and it was impossible to find trouble with the six princes, after all, the six princes were now raised in the palace of the queen mother.

The queen mother was not satisfied with raising the six princes, because Concubine Li was born as a dancing concubine and was favored by Emperor Xia Hui, but her identity was not enough to see. But Cui Guifei couldn't give birth to a son, and Emperor Xia Hui didn't want Cui Guifei to raise a son, and the queen mother had to go out in person to raise the prince born to Concubine Li.

Now that Concubine Mei and Concubine Tang are pregnant, the Queen Mother is not interested in Concubine Mei and Concubine Tang's children, Concubine Jiang Duan is Emperor Xia Hui's person, the Queen Mother can't win over her, and if she doesn't raise the sixth son of the emperor, the Queen Mother is afraid that she won't have a chance in the future.

A group of people went to the martial arts field next to the upper study, where a special arrow pavilion was set up and a horse shed.

This is Baili Yanqing's first time riding a horse, and she is still a little nervous in her heart, looking at everyone's excitement.

"Sister Qing'er, the first time you learn to ride a horse, just choose a small horse, the big horse is dangerous." Yan Yuheng came to Baili Yanqing's side and said.

Baili Yanqing smiled at Yan Yuheng, "I know, I pick a small horse to practice riding." ”

"This is an abandoned horse, it has become an adult, but it has not grown up and has become an abandoned horse." Yan Yuheng introduced by Baili Yanqing's side.

Today they learn to ride a horse, the nobles of the family generally have to learn to ride a horse, the horse is the most important means of transportation in the Great Xia Kingdom, and it is not required to learn, but there is a course in the palace.

And they go into the palace to study with the princesses, and what the princesses learn, they also learn.

"Okay, listen to you, just choose this horse." Baili Yanqing looked at the red pony, Yan Yuheng said that it was an adult horse, and she was very surprised.

The princes and princesses all have their own horses, and the ladies of the family all pick their own horses, and the horse attendants of the horse farm will be around to guide them.

In addition to Baili Yanqing, Ye Zhiqiu, and Jiang Yue, everyone chose a high-headed horse, and what was impressive was that Shen Mingzhu and Yu Chixue had a beautiful riding shot.

Jiang Yue'e picked a little white horse, Ye Zhiqiu picked a little black horse, Baili Yanqing led the red horse side by side with them, and each of them had a horse attendant in charge.

Yan Yuheng didn't pick his own horse, but he taught Baili Yanqing next to Baili Yanqing, and since he saw Baili Yanqing, Yan Yuheng took care of it very much, whether it was eating or taking notes in class, and now riding a horse.

"Yu Heng, why don't you choose a horse, this is your little fiancée, she looks good." The prince of Qianjun came over and looked at Baili Yanqing with his eyes.

Yan Yuheng directly blocked in front of Baili Yanqing, and said to the prince of Qianjun: "It's none of your business." ”

"Don't be like this, how can you say that we are also difficult brothers, look at what happened to your little fiancée." The prince of Qianjun is as big as Yan Yuheng, and the more Yan Yuheng doesn't want him to see it, the more he wants to see it.

"What is Xia Jingwen's kid doing?" Prince Chun's grandson said, and the three princes and the six princes who were attracted by the voice, as well as the grandson of the king of Anjun, and the grandson of the prince of Liguo, looked at the past.

"That's his little fiancée." Li Guo Gongshi Sun said.

The third prince narrowed his eyes, and his gaze fell on Yan Yuheng and Baili Yanqing: "Tang Zhaoyi's niece." ”

"Seems to be." Prince Chun's grandson said, nodded, this is not a secret, just ask a little bit to know, and besides, there are no secrets in the royal family and the family.

"That's the horse that the sixth sister took a fancy to that day." The third prince said casually.

"Brother Huang, help me pick a horse." The third princess came over, and her delicate voice suddenly lifted the spirits of the children, and they became like dogs, and they couldn't lose their image in front of beautiful girls.

Although they are all a family surnamed Xia, I feel sorry for the third princess, and I am very protective of the young man.

"Third princess, help you choose." Prince Chun is the grandson of the world.

Wang Shisun of Anjun is not lagging behind, "There is a good white horse over there, and it is the most suitable for the third princess." ”

The grandson of Liguo didn't speak, his eyes fell on the girl riding a white horse not far away, and the fairy temperament made his eyes light up.

"Whose daughter is that?" Liguo Gongshisun pointed to the girl not far away and asked.

The third princess's eyes narrowed, "It's the daughter of the Wei Chi family." ”

The third prince's eyes fell on Yu Chixue's body, and his eyes lit up, "That horse is the most suitable for the imperial sister, and the imperial brother will go and ask for it for you." Saying that, the feet of the third prince had already gone towards Yu Chixue.

"I've seen the Three Princes." Yu Chixue saw the three emperors coming, and immediately dismounted and saluted the three princes.

"Miss Wei Chi's riding and shooting is really good." The third prince first praised.

"The third prince has a reputation." Yu Chixue smiled slightly and lowered her head, although she was only a ten-year-old girl, she could already foresee how beautiful she would be when she grew up.

"Miss Wei Chi, this horse is good, can you give it to my imperial sister, you can pick another one." The third prince showed a charming smile and looked at Yu Chixue with a nondescending gaze.

Yu Chixue glanced at the third princess not far away, nodded, but still said: "This horse is a little difficult to ride, and I hope that the third prince will take care of the third princess." ”

Yu Chixue didn't speak again, turned around and went to choose another horse, these horses are all royal, Yu Chixue is very smart and did not fight with the third princess.

Baili Yanqing also paid attention to the scene on the field, but she didn't think that the prince of Qianjun didn't go to the third prince, she always followed Yan Yuheng, and the chatter made her want to slap him down.

Unlike the other three families, King Qianjun's grandfather died young, so his father inherited the throne very early, so he was the son, while the other three were the grandsons.

Under their guidance, Baili Yanqing also slowly sat on the red horse, but a voice stopped her, "Who let you ride the horse of the palace." (To be continued......)
