Chapter 69: Horse Racing at the Royal Racecourse
The next day, dawn broke.
"Little general, it's time to get up," he said. ”
At the beginning of the heavy rain, the beginning of the rain after the rain, Yingdu was refreshing and fresh, but Jiang Jue's mood was just the opposite.
He lazily shouted, "I'm sleepy, I can't afford it." ”
"If the little general doesn't get up, the courtier will have to carry the bed to the palace." Ren Chen shouted.
"That's a lot of work." Jiang Jue really didn't believe that this rechen would do such an act, he just wanted to delay it a little longer, after all, he was helpless now, and if he delayed it again, what if he thought of a countermeasure?
Miao Sheng also shouted outside: "Childe, it's time to leave." ”
"You go first, and I'll wait for him to carry me." Jiang Jue shouted lazily.
Miao Sheng knew that Jiang Jue was pretending to be crazy and stupid, so he didn't break it.
In Yingdu, on the street outside Miao Sheng's mansion, five people carrying a bed are particularly eye-catching. As for why there are five people, four people carry one head, and one person carries one. The young man sleeping soundly on the bed was naturally Jiang Jue, and he slept comfortably.
So this strange combination followed the car to the palace under the attention of thousands of people in Yingdu, and then entered the palace in front of the temples and civil forces of Chu State.
"Your Majesty, the little general has arrived." He said.
Miao Sheng trembled and walked over and shouted, "Childe, wake up, it's here."
"Hey, isn't that my daughter-in-law? Come and wait for your husband to go to bed. Jiang Jue's eyes lit up when he saw Miao Miao.
Zhai Zhuang's teeth were almost crushed, if it weren't for the palace, he would have killed this broken skin thing with one shot.
"Let him be," Xiong Ran said with a frown, "One Zhai Zhuang has made Gu Jiao exhausted, and another one is even more ruthless." ”
Jiang Jue simply slept soundly, he happened to have a bad sleep last night, and now he can take the opportunity to catch up on sleep. He slept for an hour, and then heard Miao Sheng shouting in his ear: "Son, wake up, it's time to go back."
Jiang Jue rubbed his eyes and asked, "Where is my daughter-in-law?"
Miao Miao blushed, came over and pulled the corner of Jiang Jue's clothes and said, "Let's go."
She naturally wanted to leave quickly, Jiang Jue had slept soundly for an hour, and the edict ceremony had been completed, so stay here to watch people's jokes?
Xiong Ran said: "The little general stayed, I heard that the little general has a good horse, and it just so happens that there is also a wild horse king in the horse farm, I don't know if the little general can race horses?"
Jiang Jue didn't know Xiong Ran's intentions, so he had to pretend to be crazy and stupid and asked, "Horse racing?" Isn't it faster than whom? Then I will. ”
He occasionally mentioned that Jiang Jue's black horse was a good horse, no worse than the wild horse king, so Xiong Ran wanted to see it.
This wise and martial Emperor of Chu pursues perfection in everything, such as the four realms must be square, so he has expanded his land over the years; For example, the temple pillars want the best in the world, so Muer and Miao Sheng are both saints; For example, the military general wants to be the strongest in the world, so the position of the general is still vacant; For example, women also want to be the most beautiful in the world, so Xiong Ran married Qiaoyu, the son of the Song Dynasty who has the appearance of a sinking fish.
As for the horses, there is only one wild horse king in the entire Royal Horse Farm, and he can't look down on anything else.
The Royal Horse Farm was in the palace, so Xiong Ran led the temple Wenwu and Jiang Jue to the Royal Horse Farm, and ordered someone to go to Miao Sheng's house to lead the black horse.
Waiting for Jiang Jue's dark horse to come, Xiong Ran ordered: "Put on the car."
The man himself went to put the king of wild horses on the car, and the king of wild horses was unruly and could only obey in the hands of the king. As for Jiang Jue's dark horse, it was much more docile, Jiang Jue once suspected that Zou Gu was blind, after all, the dark horse was very thin when he rewarded Jiang Jue with this dark horse. People are thin fish, horses are thin horses, and one man and one horse almost starved to death and froze to death in the Saishang Mangyuan.
Ah Er raised this skinny horse to be fat and strong, and there were many people who looked at this black horse, but Jiang Jue didn't sell it. This was given by Mr. Zou, and sooner or later he would ride a black horse to the Luoyi School Palace and say to Mr. Zou: "Mr. Zou, you have lost your eyes."
Borchen first had a fight with the Wild Horse King, who kicked the front foot and pedaled the back, and a horse face that was considered heroic among horses and an ugly horse mouth tore at the Wild Horse King.
It took him half an hour to subdue the Wild Horse King, but he really couldn't drive the car, so he had to bow his hand to Xiong Ran and said, "Your Majesty, the minister did his best."
"That's it, then don't drive, it's more interesting." Xiong Ran hugged Qiaoyu and said.
Jiang Jue and Borchen ended, both of them were dark horses, one was violent and the other was tame.
"Little General, if the engagement is delayed, after all, we have to take care of Zhai Zhuang's face," Yu Chen said, "You can rest assured, Miao Miao will marry you no matter whether you win or lose." ”
Jiang Jue got on the horse with a grin, and asked loudly, "What is the comparison?"
"Three laps around the field is a win." Mul replied.
The two horses galloped out together and walked side by side, Jiang Jue knew the horsepower of the black horse, and he had always pitied the black horse, so he didn't drive it too much.
"Little general, then I'll step forward first." He whipped the Wild Horse King on the buttocks, and the Wild Horse King was in pain, so he moved forward at great speed and threw Jiang Jue two or three times.
"Come on, General Borie." The voices are full of voices, these nobles naturally like lively scenes, and they are naturally on the side of the courtiers.
"Come on, Childe." Miao Miao shouted with a red face.
Zhai Zhuang's face was ugly, he stood not far from Miao Miao with a gun, eager to kill Jiang Jue with one shot.
Xiong Ran held Qiaoyu's pretty face and asked, "Aifei, who do you say can win?"
Qiaoyu replied with a smile: "General Borage has the skills of horses, and his riding skills are also superior, and he has a BMW, so he will naturally win."
Xiong Ran asked Mu Er again: "What does the wood master think?"
"I can't see it." Muer arched his hand and said.
"What does Miao Sheng think?" Xiong Ran asked Miao Sheng again.
Miao Sheng replied: "The old minister is naturally towards my grandson-in-law."
Xiong Ran laughed and said, "Lone is also optimistic about General Jiang Jue."
At the end of the first lap, Jiang Jue was already more than ten zhang behind, and he was still not in a hurry and even had the heart to wave to Miao Miao.
Miao Miao shouted loudly, "Come on, childe."
Miao Miao has always given people the impression of being a gentle and delicate girl, but today she is quite refreshing.
The only thing that can change a person is to meet someone who is worthy of his change. For example, Jiang Jue met Jing Qijun, and Miao Miao met Jiang Jue.
Zhai Zhuang picked up the gun and left, and if he stayed here, he couldn't wait to pick up the gun and kill Jiang Jue. So he just wanted to hold back and wait for the day of the war to teach a good lesson to this stupid outsider who didn't know the height of the sky.
Yingdu Xiaobawang, is it a waste of fame? No one can tell how many nobles in Yingdu are, but there is no blind guy who dares to provoke him?
At the end of the second lap, Jiang Jue was still a few feet behind, and I was afraid that it was impossible to catch up.
"Carpenter, how about we make a bet?" Xiong Ran said.
"What's the gambling method?" Mul asked.
"Lonely bet that General Jiang Jue will win, if you lose, you can make a request, it's not too much to agree." Xiong Ran said with a radiant look and victory in his hand.
"The king and his subordinates bet but lose nine out of ten," Mu Er asked, "Does the king really want to gamble?" ”
Xiong Ran laughed and said, "Lonely to gamble."
"If your subordinates win, ask for a marriage for me, an unsuccessful apprentice." Muer arched his hand and said.
"That's right," Xiong Ran said after pecking at Qiaoyu's face, "The woman who has not yet left the pavilion in Yingdu is picked by the wood master, and Gu will naturally go to propose marriage in person." ”
In the remaining half of the circle, Jiang Jue was still a few feet behind, and Mu Er smiled: "Your Majesty, it seems that the marriage of your subordinates has been settled."
"Not necessarily, it's not over yet." Xiong Ran glared at the two people in the field and said.
There were only ten chapters left before the end of the road, and the mutation suddenly occurred, and the wild horse king fell to the ground foaming at the mouth and convulsed. As for the lettuce on horseback, he was thrown ten paces away.
Jiang Jue crossed the finish line steadily and won the race. He didn't think about Ying at all, he just pretended to be crazy and stupid to deal with Xiong Ran, who would have expected such a thing to happen.
Jiang Jue let go of the reins, went over to help him up, and asked, "Are you okay?"
How are you okay? Is it okay to be thrown ten steps away? He is good at defense, but he is not copper-headed and iron-clad, he is still flesh and blood. He gritted his teeth and said, "It's okay."
"Who's the one who keeps the horses?" Xiong Ran asked.
The horseman Gongsun Ji of the Royal Horse Farm climbed over with a rolling belt.
"If you can't raise a horse, what's the use of raising you? Drag it off, silly. Xiong Ran said casually.
Gongsun Ji's face was pale, he neither pleaded nor cried, he never thought that he could live since he returned to Yingdu, and he didn't even have the right to resist if it was destined.
"Master Mu, I won the lonely gamble once, and the conditions that Master Mu said still counted," Xiong Ran finished speaking to Mu'er, and then said to Qin Mengting, "Which girl do you like?" Tell me about Lonely? ”
Qin Mengting didn't dare to answer, he couldn't guess Xiong Ran's thoughts. So Mu Er replied for Qin Mengting: "Your Majesty, if your subordinates lose, they are naturally willing to gamble and lose."
"Between the carpenter's gambling and the lonely one." Xiong Ran smiled, "Okay, let's do it today, I'm lonely." ”
Xiong Ran didn't mention the marriage, but since Xiong Ran didn't mention it, no one asked.
Jiang Jue dragged the car and put it on the black horse, threw the Lichen on it, and drove the Lichen out.
"Thank you, little general." He gasped.
"Jiang Jue, put the rechen down." Xiong Ran shouted.
Jiang Jue got out of the car and drove away with the black horse, the wild horse king died inexplicably, and Gongsun Ji, who fed the horse, was beheaded again, obviously all this was from Xiong Ran's hands.
Jiang Jue didn't want to get involved in the affairs of Yingdu or Chu, he just wanted to escape from Yingdu.
Yingdu, Royal Horse Farm.
"It's hard work." Xiong Ran rarely surrendered to the courtier.
"It is the duty of a courtier to be able to share the king's worries and solve problems." He said.
"Jiang Jue has already won the horse race today, and if he wins Zhai Zhuang, no one in Yingdu will dare to laugh at this idiot anymore," Xiong Ran said, "It's a pity that he is an idiot, and it is really painstaking for him alone." ”
"Your Majesty, what about the national teacher?" He asked.
"Let him be, I hope he will know how to be more restrained after today, a courtier is still a courtier after all." Xiong Ran said.
Killing three birds with one stone, at the cost of the death of the Wild Horse King and the wounding of the Wild Horse. There is always some price, and even the most astute businessman cannot make a profit.
