Chapter 11 This Tiger is not the Tiger of the Other
Li Xian would never have thought that his father Li Zhi would be so open that he promised to let Helan Yan follow him to Li Ji's mansion in one gulp. Could it be that in order to please his lover, his father didn't even consider Li Ji's position? When the time comes, does he still have to explain to Li Ji, saying that this is my cousin, and I want to learn from you the skills of marching and arranging formations?
The scenery outside the car is wonderful, because from the palace to Li Ji's house, you have to pass through the most lively shops in Luoyang, so you can see all kinds of vendors and entertainers along the way. The most distinctive thing is that there are not a few people from the Western Regions in strange costumes, and you can even see the legendary Kunlun Nu with black skin and curly hair. However, he was not interested in all this, and if someone kept chattering in his ear, no matter who he was, he would not be interested.
"Xian'er, you see it's so lively there!"
"Xian'er, look at that juggler, the snake in his hand is in his hand?"
"Ah, swallow fire, he ...... He's actually swallowing fire! ”
The ears were full of the sound of Helan smoke, although the sound was pleasant, although the fragrance of the orchid-like musk deer had been stimulating the mouth and nose, but Li Xian was still almost lamenting. usually thinks that a person's life is too lonely, but now he knows that it is called quiet. He really couldn't imagine how those people with three wives and four concubines should use to settle so many women.
"Xian'er, are you upset?"
When the high-decibel sound in his ears suddenly came to an end and became this timid sentence, Li Xian couldn't help but feel strange, turned his head to look, and saw Helan Yan biting his lip and looking at him pitifully, his heart suddenly softened again, and he hurriedly confused the past with rhetoric. Seeing that Helan Yan was once again elated, he suddenly thought of another question.
Now Li Zhizheng and Mrs. Han are fighting hotly, if Mrs. Han really dies under the jealousy of Empress Wu one day, will Helan Yan's temperament change greatly because of this, and then do something irreparable?
The only scruples he had were dissipated when he arrived at the Li Mansion, and when he saw the snow horse in the courtyard that he had loved so much, he immediately left everything else behind. I saw that this originally slick horse had more bridle saddle reins and other things, and it looked like it was out of order, but unfortunately, now this is Li Ji's mount. Next to the snow, there are a few other horses, which are extraordinary at first glance, on par with chasing the wind, but slightly shorter.
"Today I will teach His Highness to ride a horse."
Li Xian quickly understood the meaning of this sentence. At this time, he was riding on horseback, enduring the howling wind in front of him, and he was worried about only one thing—whether he would be turned upside down. This must be Li Jigong's personal vendetta, just now it was clearly said that this horse has a docile personality, but when he ran, he actually looked like he was crazy.
He didn't know how many laps he had run, the only thing he knew was that his twin strands had been grinded to pain, and his two hands didn't dare to let go of the reins at all, as for how to control the horse's speed, how to stop the horse, and how to know if the horse had spare strength, he didn't remember it at all, the only thing he remembered was the turn. In fact, it wasn't him controlling the turn at all, it was the horse under him running on its own, and he was more of a burden.
The longest horseback ride in his previous life was only five minutes, and he didn't run at all, where had he ever experienced such a galloping speed? As for why it didn't fall, it was only thanks to the special stirrups.
But when a period of extreme fear had passed, he became fascinated by the feeling that he was about to ride the wind, and his hands and body could feel the powerful steps of the horses beneath him, and the howling wind seemed to be no longer so difficult to open his eyes, and although his body was tossed apart, it was more of an indescribable excitement. He was no longer a complete outsider, and he and the horse seemed to be flesh and blood.
"Xian'er!"
There was a faint cry in his ears, and after making sure there was nothing wrong ahead, he quickly turned his head to take a look that almost didn't let him fall off his horse. He was amazed to see Helan Yan galloping skillfully, and even waved to him with one hand. Oh my God, my riding skills are not as good as a girl!
After finally getting off the ground, Li Xian only felt that the world was spinning, and he almost couldn't even stand on his feet. However, after seeing Li Ji's old fox face, he immediately took a few deep breaths, barely holding back the desire to vomit.
"Your Highness is still used to it?"
"Good!" Li Xian spit out two words like gold, and looked at Li Ji with his head held high, "The master's horse is really different from the imperial horse in the palace. ”
Helan Yan also hurriedly chimed in: "Yes, yes, my family's horses don't run so fast at all!" ”
"The horses raised by the royal horses in the palace and the families of ordinary officials, although they are for riding, they are important in a stable word, as long as they can carry the master steadily, and will not casually stumble and flirt, they are a good horse."
When it comes to the Book of Horses, Li Ji, who has fought all his life, naturally talks eloquently: "As for the horses I feed here, most of them are going to go to the battlefield, one must have good endurance, two must run fast, and three must have strong explosiveness. If you use those horses that are good but not durable, you may be able to take people off with a shudder when you go to the battlefield! ”
Li Xian had read this kind of theory in a book before, but when he really heard it from the mouth of a general, he still had an indescribable sense of excitement, and he forgot about Li Ji for a while. Just when he wanted to ask a few more words about the secret of horse control, he suddenly saw two horses galloping not far away, one in front of the other, and one of them seemed to be Li Jingye.
Seeing the two of them dismount in a dashing manner, and thinking about the embarrassment that he had just almost climbed off the horse, Li Xian couldn't help but snort coldly in his heart, and secretly vowed to practice his riding skills well and never make people laugh.
"Grandpa, Your Highness!" Li Jingye saluted one by one, and then pointed to the person next to him and said, "Junior Brother Cheng heard that Grandpa taught His Royal Highness equestrianism, so he specially asked me to come over and have a look." ”
"Cheng Bohu meets His Royal Highness King Lu and meets the British Duke!"
Cheng Bohu?
Hearing the registration, the first thing Li Xian thought of was Tang Bohu, and he almost didn't laugh out loud. Immediately afterwards, he thought of Cheng Biting Jin from a Cheng character. It's just that Cheng Yanjin has already told the old man to return to his hometown to enjoy Qingfu, and he didn't have a chance to meet him at all, what does this guy have to do with Cheng Yanjin?
Finding that there were more and more people here, and it was about to become a school, Li Ji also felt a headache, but he had to introduce to Li Xian, "His Royal Highness King Lu, Bohu is the eldest grandson of Cheng Zhijie, the Duke of Lu Guo, and his father is Cheng Chumo. Cheng Gong has already died of old age, and this time it is their father and son who accompany them to the Eastern Capital. ”
Li Xian greeted Cheng Bohu with a smile, and immediately thought about it in his heart. Cheng Bites Jin's grandson? Okay, when the time comes, I will ask my father Li Zhi to come over! By the way, where is that Xue Rengui, who is amazing in archery, now, I have to ask Li Ji if I have time, if I can get it, I can teach myself both hands!
