Chapter 67: Pulling the Horse to the Pilgrimage
"Haha, with this method, as long as our Han cavalry is trained a little, although the riding skills are still not as good as the Hun cavalry after adapting, the gap between the two is getting smaller and smaller."
Zhang Yuan laughed loudly, turned over and got off the horse, trying to lead the horse back to the stable.
I didn't expect that suddenly there was a gurgling sound in the field, which came from touching the leaves of crops.
"Who?"
Wei Qing shouted, then quickly took the bow and arrow from the back of the war horse, and shot an arrow at the place where the sound was made.
"Ahh
With only a scream, Zhang Yuan quickly suppressed the bow and arrow in Wei Qing's hand to prevent him from shooting a second arrow.
"Brother Yuan, why did someone peep at you to stop your little brother?"
Zhang Yuan stared at the deep distance, stared at the darkness, and whispered to Wei Qing.
"Have you forgotten why we put our horses outside the house?
I'll ask someone to prepare some water and dry food for you, and you can go back to Jianzhang Palace now, and be sure to inform Your Majesty of this stirrup in front of those unsightly things. ”
Wei Qing nodded solemnly, he knew that there was only the so-called credit in his eyes, and he would definitely try his best to smear Zhang Yuan and himself in order to grab the credit.
If you want to have the right to speak, you have to be one step ahead of anyone else.
"I'm going back to Chang'an, I think I won't be able to cross the water tonight, and I won't be able to see Your Majesty tomorrow."
Zhang Yuan lowered his head and thought about it for a while, and also felt that this was a problem, and after thinking about it for a while, he thought of a solution.
"Brother Qing, you go all the way south to cross the Dinghu Yanshou Palace, and then go west to bypass Chanshui, bypass Chanshui, and then go all the way north back to Chang'an.
Although it is necessary to run twice as long as the distance, there is still plenty of time to attend the court meeting in time.
The unsightly thing is now wounded, and it will have to wait until tomorrow afternoon when I see His Majesty. ”
Wei Qing nodded, agreeing with Zhang Yuan's statement, this method is the most suitable for implementation at the moment.
"Then I'll call two entourages back to Jianzhang Palace now, if I hurry up, I can rush back tomorrow night to eat in my brother's mansion."
Zhang Yuan patted Wei Qing's thick shoulder and said with a laugh.
"Haha, when the time comes, Brother Fool will definitely prepare a dinner party that is even richer than today to welcome you.
The wild boar and deer you brought with you will be on the table tomorrow night. ”
"Uh-huh."
When Lao Zhao found Wei Qing's two entourages and brought some pickled and dried cooked meat, Wei Qing and his two half-drunk entourages set off to leave.
The reason why Zhang Yuan didn't bring the bilateral stirrups to himself was mainly because he first dedicated the three-bow bed crossbow to Tian Wei.
In order to appease Liu Che's displeasure, he could only take out one thing and give it to Wei Qing, a close minister who was about to become the actual ruler of the Inner Government.
Although there is a selfish intention to use Wei Qing to be valued by Liu Che, Zhang Yuan definitely has no bad intentions towards Wei Qing.
He took a torch from Lao Zhao's hand, and then went down to the field with two or three people.
There was no figure in the direction of Wei Qing's arrow, but he could see some blood stains on the ground.
If the person who was hit by the arrow did not pull the arrow out of his body, it would not cause heavy bleeding, but if this person wanted to rush back to Chang'an on horseback overnight to grab merit, it is estimated that half of his life would have to be confessed on the road.
"Take back these broken watermelons, throw away the watermelon pulps stained with soil, and distribute the rest for everyone to eat, don't waste it."
Lao Zhao nodded, and then worked with the others to deal with a few broken watermelons on the ground.
Zhang Yuan looked at the brightly lit Dinghu Yanshou Palace in the distance, and then returned home.
After entering the main building, let Xiaoqing prepare the bamboo slips and pen and ink, and he began to write letters.
The owner of the letter is naturally Chu Da, and now that there is no one around Zhang's mansion to monitor, it is safest to write a letter to Chu Da at this time.
The content of the letter is nothing more than some things to ask for warmth, including saying that Chu Da can come to the house to get together when he is free.
Even if it is intercepted by others, it cannot be used against Zhang Yuan.
After the letter was written, Zhang Yuan rolled up the book and asked Xiaoqing to hand it over to Zong Xing, so that he could send it to Chu Da's official residence early the next morning while the time of the court meeting.
Strange to say, these emperors who liked to spy on people liked to spy on the private lives of others, but they didn't care about the performance of the people they watched at work.
The next day, as soon as the sun rose, Wei Qing rushed back to the Jianzhang Palace, quickly changed into court clothes in the official office, and led a group of war horses equipped with bilateral stirrups to go directly to the place where the court meeting in the front hall.
The bustling ministers didn't know what Wei Qing wanted to do, but they were all waiting for Liu Che to be angry and cure Wei Qing's sins.
Tian Wei had already returned from Ganquan Palace, and when he and Han Anguo saw Wei Qing leading a horse behind Wei Qing, they began to wonder.
"General Han, you have always been in the army, and the war horse led by this kid Wei Qing is different from other war horses?"
Liu Che's love for horses is well known, and Tian Wei naively thought that Wei Qing led a horse to the palace during the court meeting in order to pay tribute to Liu Che and use it to win Liu Che's favor.
As Tian Wei said, Han Anguo has indeed been in the army for a long time, and he is familiar with horses, but the horses led by Wei Qing really make him a little confused.
"I don't see anything unusual, I can say that it is a good horse, but it is not as good as those horses in His Majesty's stables.
If you want to please Your Majesty with this horse, then this Wei Qing either has a problem with his brain, or has other calculations. ”
Tian Wei listened to Han Anguo's answer, smiled and shook his head, as long as this matter does not hurt his interests, it is not a big deal.
As for whether it is a good thing or a bad thing, when it arrives at the palace, Wei Qing will naturally reveal his intentions.
"It's almost time, let's go to court first.
Recently, Wang Hui has been on the verge of trying to persuade His Majesty to change his previous policy of peace and proximity.
General Han must not let him succeed. ”
Wei Qing can't let Tian Wei put it in his eyes now, he can't even let Liu Che go in his eyes, how can he stuff others.
This is reasonable to ignore Wei Qing directly.
Han Anguo smiled confidently when he heard Tian Wei say this.
"The prime minister still believes in fortune too much, and in the eyes of the lower officials, His Majesty may not necessarily support the war.
Look at the recent unconventional hires of those poor scholars, no matter whose policies they are, they all have support and pro-policy policies in the middle.
are persuading His Majesty not to use troops against the Huns, if Your Majesty does not like the policy of peace and proximity, how can he promote and hire those people? ”
Tian Wei nodded, he also felt that this was the case.
