Chapter 121: Winter Solstice

The winter solstice is sunny and the New Year rains.

On December 22, a red sun rose in the morning mist, and the morning glow printed the sky crimson and beautiful.

The winter solstice is as big as the year, it is easier to get new clothes, prepare food, and worship the ancestors. The official release is closed and celebrated, just like the New Year's Festival.

In the study, I drew a picture of the ninety-nine cold stroke by stroke, and my eyes glanced out of the window from time to time, and my heart couldn't settle down.

Since the establishment of the Jockey Club, there have been many riding and archery competitions, but I have not participated in one of them. He didn't even have a look at the renovated gallop and shooting range. It was not that he was worried about his uncle Li Linfu's questioning, but that Weng Yelu's thief-like eyes made him dare not take half a step out of the door.

Li Sheng rode Da Hei to participate in several competitions, but the results were not very good. The dark clouds that married his daughter-in-law covered the snow, like Ma Sheng had no pursuit, and it became difficult to get excited. The best result was only third place. But its reputation among the horsemen of Chang'an City is still the greatest. Because of its heroic and rude feat that day, people named it Huahua Tai Sui. Its million-bride purple skull, of course, has become a princess.

At night, I sometimes attend the banquets of the Jockey Club, and I can only listen enviously to the side when I pass by. And the Winter Solstice Festival Jockey Club is preparing for a grand competition, which makes his heart itch, and he can't wait to be separated.

Tang Xiaoqi took some maids and mothers-in-law to prepare meals, and also brought Liuzi over. Wang Liuli took Qing'er and Wang Shiyi to watch the competition. Today, it seems that he has become an idler that no one cares about.

sketched a few pictures of the ninety-nine cold, threw down the red pen angrily, and walked slowly towards the old mansion private school.

There are no guards, no little eunuchs, it seems that Li Shi, the emperor's great-grandson, will not come today. It's been a long time since I've cleaned up and trained two stubborn and stubborn disciples, so I'm going to tease them today. Otherwise, you will be bored to death.

"A "Analects" rules the world, as long as you have a deep understanding of this great work of the sage, you will find that all kinds of truths are in it. In and out of the phase, but the king of the world, to win the name before and after his death, this is my life's scholar, the biggest pursuit of dreams in life. ”

Zhang Xun's voice came from the schoolhouse, giving way and his eyes almost popped out.

"Lord Zhang Xunzhang, you are not at home to accompany your family during this Winter Solstice Festival, why do you still come to my house?" After the road, he walked forward quickly, his face unswerving.

"As a teacher, preaching and solving doubts for disciples is the first priority. How can I, Zhang Xun, delay such a major event for the sake of the celebration of the solar terms. As soon as the New Year is over, I can't tell when I will go to the state and county to take office. In order to prevent these children from being led down the wrong path by you, I naturally have to seize the time and lay a good foundation for them. ”

Zhang Xun's face did not change, and he was not affected by Lu Li's words in the slightest.

"Isn't your eldest brother Zhang Xiao in charge of the imperial history in the court, you can't let him keep you in the capital." I was in a hurry, but I still couldn't help but mock.

"Now that Yang Guozhong is in power, he can only succeed without asking for a lot of money. Under such a strange atmosphere, this Beijing official, I don't want to do it! ”

Zhang Xunmi's face showed disgust. With a wave of his hand, he seemed to dispel the filthy atmosphere.

He was a little angry when he heard the words, and it was through the recommendation of Princess Yunzhen that his father-in-law Wang Yuanbao spent a lot of money to ask several related officials to protect him, so he asked for a seven-grade position as an ordnance supervisor. At this time, he seemed to be a head shorter than Zhang Xun.

"Wang Huan, you are not at home for the holiday today, why are you coming over?"

I saw that twelve or thirteen years old, who looked like a ghost and a ghost

Nian glanced at it, and began to reprimand it.

"The road to study is long and obstructive, how can a disciple delay his studies because of such solar terms. My grandfather said that after today, I will live for a long time and never return, so that I can learn the real skills. Sir, can you prepare a humble house for your disciples? ”

This Wang Huan is so young, as Wang Lao said, he is stubborn. The words made the two gentlemen angry.

"Huh!" Lu Lu smiled angrily: "You are not my disciple, why do you want to stay in my house." ”

"Respecting teachers lies in the heart, not in the form. The disciple regarded the master as the master in his heart, and the gentleman did not treat the disciple as an outsider, so why not let the disciple live in the master's house. ”

Wang Huan seemed to have been prepared, and he was speechless after saying something.

Zhang Xun smiled slightly and nodded again and again: "It seems that you should learn more about this etiquette." ”

"Huh!" Lu sneered: "If you learn this, you can get in and out of the picture, it's too child's play." ”

"Why not?" Zhang Xun said proudly.

"Good! Today I'm going to take a look at how you make a general, you and me, and I'll deduce how it is. "I went on the road and directly challenged Zhang Xun.

After three deductions, Zhang Xun was killed and lost his armor, and all three times were wiped out.

Looking at the sand table stupidly for a long time, Zhang Xun left silently. Since then, every time he teaches the art of war, Zhang Xun makes the appearance of inspecting his disciples, and he does not miss a class.

Directly defeating an opponent who often humiliates him is so pleasant, so happy that he almost wants to dance and shout. If it weren't for the three disciples and students in front of him, he might have done this.

Holding his head in his hands behind his back, he took a leisurely walk in the backyard with three disciples, like a proud general returning from victory.

When Li Sheng rode the big black, no, now it should be called Huahua Tai Sui. One man and one horse, surrounded by a group of smiling personal guards, returned. The smug smile, the proud look, and the invincible appearance completely suppressed the momentum of the road in an instant.

"Look at you like this, don't you have a good test result today?" After passing by, he glanced at Li Sheng, and the sour smell in his tone could be smelled by anyone.

"Hey, hey!" Li Sheng smiled proudly: "Today, this Huahua Tai Sui suddenly showed great might, and desperately caught up in the second half of the race, but actually came from behind, leading the number one hot Chitu BMW by half a horse's head and winning the first place." In the archery competition, I had eight arrows in a row, and the arrows hit the bull's-eye and won the first place in archery. ”

"Eight arrows in a row, can you shoot eight arrows in a row?" He looked at Li Sheng in surprise.

"Hey, hey! This is inseparable from Wu Niang's careful supervision. It won't be long before I think I'll be able to fully master the Nine Stars. Li Sheng smiled so happily.

Lu Lu pouted, and his heart was sour: "There are five mothers who supervise every day, what are you proud of when you get the first place in archery." But Da Hei, a lazy thing, took the wrong medicine today, and he was able to outrun those divine horses. ”

Li Sheng shook his head blankly, saying that he didn't know the reason.

"Halfway through the race, the young lady rode the concubine Huahua to watch the battle, I think this guy is probably unwilling to lose face in front of his own concubine, so he ran desperately."

Jiao Kun, who went to see the competition, said smartly.

"Something that doesn't make a living!" Lu Lu glared at Da Hei fiercely.

The dark clouds covered the snow and hissed, as if you were too.

"Wait! In the Jockey Club, who will have a horse like the Chitu BMW? "I suddenly reacted when I was on the road.

"I was about to tell you, today's horse racing and archery competition, even the prince is here. His Chitu BMW is the crown prince's mount. I was worried that this black Tai Sui would have some trouble if he won half a horse's head from Chitu BMW and stole the limelight from the prince. But who knew that the prince just smiled and said that such things as enjoying with the people did not talk about his identity. In the end, he personally put the colored hair in my hand and encouraged me to kill the enemy on the battlefield and win glory for the country. ”

Li Sheng's face was excited, and he seemed to be completely impressed by the prince's act of buying people's hearts.

"This completely unappreciated prince Li Heng seems to be bored, and he actually came to participate in the horse race of his sons and brothers in Chang'an during the Winter Solstice Festival." I didn't think much about it at all, and muttered to myself.

A group of people surrounded Li Sheng to celebrate, but they didn't follow when they passed. Because he was extremely uncomfortable in his heart, he made things out of his own way, watching others have fun and lively, but he couldn't participate, can he feel good in his heart.

As the sun sank, Wang Liuli came back riding a purple horsetail and a flower concubine. However, her face was gloomy, and it was obvious that she had encountered something very unhappy.

"Could it be that Da Hei won the prince's Chitu BMW, causing some trouble?" The road was like a frightened bird, looking at Wang Liuli with a weak heart.

"You also underestimate the strength of a prince. But what makes me unhappy is this prince Li Heng. ”

Wang Liuli glanced blankly, and suddenly turned around and retched for a while, but did not spit out anything.

"Huh! Can you vomit out if you don't feel happy? He laughed out loud after passing by.

"You idiot, I'm pregnant!" Wang Liuli's face was pale, and she stared at the road with hatred.

"Ahh Lu Lu jumped up in shock: "You, why didn't you tell me." ”

"What's the use of telling you, can you help me get pregnant?" Wang Liuli looked very irritable, and gave way and shut up with a word.

"Then what did the prince Li Heng do to make you so unhappy?" I couldn't help but ask.

"Do you know how much money this horse racing and shooting range have earned in the past two months?" Wang Liuli looked straight at the road.

"Two hundred thousand dollars?" I walked and carefully estimated a value.

"Seven million dollars!" Wang Liuli's words were so frightened that she couldn't help but take two steps back.

"You don't know how crazy those boys are to bet on horses. 100,000 dollars were thrown in without blinking. Later, even many ordinary people in Chang'an began to bet. The money came so quickly that I felt a little weak.

It's good now, the prince said, riding and archery is the foundation of the strength of my Tang army, and we must vigorously support and encourage. The Prince's Mansion decided to fully support this matter for the benefit of the country and the people, and he will personally award the first warrior in riding and archery in the future. ”

Wang Liuli finished speaking in one breath, a little thirsty, and immediately handed over the teacup when she passed by.

"How is the Prince's Mansion going to support?" I had a bad feeling in my heart.

"The horse farm and shooting range are owned by the Prince's Mansion, and he will return all the original investment of my Wang family." Wang Liuli put the teacup on the table, obviously this time, she was not lightly angry. Full Book - Free Full Book Reading Network
