Chapter 41: Majestic

Xue Shao couldn't help but be stunned, I forgot that this girl is in the "rebellious period of youth", you can't tease her like this, otherwise she will have to take it seriously!

"Your Highness, I'm just talking, don't take it seriously!" Xue Shao said with a smile.

"Don't laugh!" Princess Taiping was very angry, and her subordinates pulled the horsehair hard.

Sanhua Ma suddenly raised his neck and snorted, Princess Taiping was startled, "This horse is so annoying!" ”

"Your Highness, don't blame it. Anyway, it carried us for three days. Xue Shao said with a smile.

"It's just annoying." Princess Taiping was not in a beautiful mood and didn't like anything, so she said in a broken way, "Look at it, it's short, its hair color is poor, its muscles and bones are not strong, its eyes are not bright, and it has cut an ugly three flowers!" This palace used to hate Sanhua the most, so don't ride this stupid horse in the future! ”

The Tang Dynasty fashioned to cut horsehair for decoration as fashionable, and the three-petaled cut is called a three-petaled horse. Li Bai has a poem "Five-flowered horses, daughter-in-law, Hu'er will exchange for fine wine", the five-flowered horse refers to a horse with a five-petal mane, which later became a synonym for a good horse.

Xue Shaoha smiled, "Your Highness, Weichen has two or three horses, but this one can barely ride out to meet people, and the others can only be used for driving or pack horses." ”

"Then you won't have more good horses?" Princess Taiping was in a bad mood, and the more she talked, the more depressed she became.

Xue Shao smiled bitterly, "Your Highness, you really don't know that firewood, rice, oil and salt are expensive, good horses are either frighteningly expensive or priceless, how can you say that you can raise them?" ”

"Are you counting down the palace and being ignorant?" Princess Taiping said angrily, "Get off the horse, don't ride!" ”

Xue Shao smiled indifferently and jumped off the horse, and picked up Princess Taiping off the horse with the standard technique of the Tota Heavenly King. In the past few days, Princess Taiping seems to be a little used to it, and she doesn't blush in particular.

"Linlang, you go and pick two good BMWs and replace Xue Shao's big stupid horse!" Princess Taiping was not in a beautiful mood, and said fiercely, "After this palace, I don't want to see this big stupid horse again!" ”

"Why should Your Highness be angry about an animal?" Xue Shaozhi said that she was not really angry with this horse, but she was depressed when she thought of returning to the palace.

"Hongu is angry! Just not happy! Princess Taiping frowned and sullenly.

Like many students nowadays, the thought of going to school after a vacation is naturally unhappy; What's more, Princess Taiping is about to leave Xue Shao and return to the cage-like palace. How can her mood be beautiful?

Xue Shao smiled slightly, "We'll meet again soon." ”

"Really?" Princess Taiping was a little overjoyed.

"Your Highness, I have forgotten that Wechen also promised to give you a gift." Xue Shao smiled and said, "In three or five days at most, Weichen will come to ask to see Her Royal Highness the Princess." ”

"Really?" The gloomy look on Princess Taiping's face was swept away, and her eyes immediately lit up, "You are not allowed to break your word!" ”

"Really."

"Good!" Princess Taiping was overjoyed, "When the time comes, you will come directly to the Dragon Head Hall near the Dragon Pond of Daming Palace, and the palace will send someone to wait for you there every day!" ”

"It's a deal." Xue Shao nodded and smiled. If you want to enter the palace and ask to see the princess, it is not something you can see if you want to. Princess Taiping is thoughtful.

"Then I'll wait for you......" Princess Taiping's voice softened and whispered.

"I'll come."

Later, Linlang led two big horses over, the same fur was red, and there seemed to be a layer of flame on his body. Seeing that head, it was a cut taller than Xue Shao's three-flowered horse. The skeleton is strange, but the head is pointed and small, the neck is slender and the fur is shiny, and the horse's eyes are as bright as jewels.

Quite remarkably, both horses also have a few tabby-like patterns on their bodies – the hallmark of a purebred wild horse.

"Your Highness, these are two top-grade purebred horses from the Western Regions." Sister Linlang hugged her fists.

Xue Shao couldn't help but widen his eyes, top-grade purebred? Sweaty BMW? …… How many times more expensive than the mixed-blood Dawan horse I saw in the West Market that day?

It's not about the price, it's about the money!

"Xue Shao, they belong to you!" Princess Taiping waved her hand casually, "How about these two horses in exchange for your big stupid horse?" ”

Xue Shao was stunned, isn't this equivalent to exchanging two Bugatti Veyrons for one Xiali for me?

"Your Highness, one horse is enough."

"Two horses for you to swap and ride. In the future, I will use such a tall horse to carry the main palace out of the palace to play! ”

Tall horses?

Xue Shao and Linlang almost had black lines on their foreheads at the same time, this is a pure-bred, high-grade, and priceless sweat and blood BMW, is it good!

"What's wrong with you, why are you looking at Hongu like this?" Princess Taiping saw that the eunuchs and palace maids on the side were all ready to drive and wait for her, her mood was a little low, and she said stupidly, "Isn't it just a bloody BMW, it's not that I haven't seen it!" ”

All three of them had a slightly embarrassed expression, well, we haven't seen it......

Xue Shao took one of the horses and said, "Your Highness, Weichen is not greedy, one horse is really enough!" ”

"I said that you should take away the two horses, why are you so annoying?" Princess Taiping shook her hand angrily and walked towards the chariot.

Xue Shao smiled and shook his head. Princess Taiping is still a child's temper.

Helpless, Xue Shao had no choice but to endure the pain and say goodbye to Sanhua's "big stupid horse", and took two sweaty BMWs.

The people and horses started and looked at the Xuanwu Gate of the Daming Palace.

On the way, Princess Taiping kept telling "go slower, go slower", and called Xue Shao to the side of the chariot, seizing all the time to say a few more words to him.

"Your Highness, how about I give one of the sweaty and bloody horses to Xue Chuyu?" Xue Shao said.

"For what?" Princess Taiping frowned a little unhappily, "I gave it to you on purpose, why do you want to give it to others?" ”

Xue Shao smiled and whispered, "Your Highness, has you forgotten the gambling contract you promised three days ago?" Although the hunt did not produce a result, since His Highness rewarded me exceptionally, he couldn't help but reward Xue Chuyu. Otherwise, if it spreads, some people will say that Her Royal Highness the princess's rewards and punishments are unknown. ”

"Excuses." Princess Taiping pursed her lips, "I know what your intentions are. Anyway, these two horses are given to you, and how you want to distinguish them is your business, so it's up to you. ”

"Your Highness!" Xue Shao smiled, in fact, Princess Taiping is quite reasonable and smart. She had long seen that I was interested in befriending and taking care of Xue Chuyu, my own brother.

"Don't laugh!"

……

Xue Shao called Xue Chuyu aside, pointed to a bloody horse and said, "General, this is given to you by the princess." ”

Xue Chuyu was knowledgeable, because his eyes widened all of a sudden. He may be proud and treat money like dung, but horses are a treasure of great significance to him, and money cannot be measured.

Because he is a cavalryman of the Tang Dynasty, he went to war, and a war horse may mean life.

The three treasures of the soldiers, the "soldier and horse armor", weapons and armor may be easy to do, but a war horse with good color is difficult for the soldiers to meet. Especially this kind of purebred high-grade sweat and blood BMW, it is even more priceless. Back then, Lu Bu was able to kill his father and betray because of a red rabbit horse, which shows the importance of horses in the era of cold weapons.

"This ...... This BMW is too precious, Chu Yu is useless! Besides, the princess was attacked and Chu Yu was not able to protect her, and she was still guilty! The princess is already blessed with God's grace if she does not punish her, how can she be rewarded again? No, no! Never! Xue Chuyu was a little frightened, not only because he was well-deserved, such a BMW, even if he was a general of the third rank of the dynasty, might not be able to ride it.

Xue Shao smiled slightly, "Take it!" ”

"This ...... Chu Yu really didn't dare to bear it! Xue Chuyu gasped, and he was tempted, but he couldn't get in the way. How can you afford such a valuable gift, and how can you repay it?

"BMW gives heroes. You are a soldier who went into battle to kill the enemy, and you are worthy of such a good horse. Xue Shao smiled and said, "It's really a tyrannical thing for a gentleman like me or those shooter palace maids to ride and play." As for the attack...... Her Royal Highness has never been a narrow-minded person. You must not take it to heart. Now that the princess is so kind, how can you shirk it again and again? ”

"That'...... Then Chu Yu is ashamed! Xue Chuyu hesitated to take the reins of the horse, and suddenly bowed solemnly, "Please Gongzi on behalf of Chuyu, thank Your Royal Highness the Princess!" ”

This worship is a bit similar to in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", Guan Yu thanked Cao Cao for giving him a red rabbit horse.

"Okay." Xue Shao smiled, in the future, will you still have so many prejudices against Princess Taiping?

The Xuanwu Gate has arrived.

Princess Taiping called to stop and drive, and refused to enter the palace for a long time.

Xue Shao rode his horse to the vicinity of the chariot. The sweaty BMW is a cow, running like a float, smooth and fast, like a beating fire, which is extremely eye-catching.

"What should I do, Xue Shao? I'm going back to the palace......" Princess Taiping snorted in a low voice, "When are you coming to see me?" ”

"As soon as possible." Xue Shao replied, when will the matter of the execution of the bra be dealt with.

"How fast is it as soon as possible?" Princess Taiping pursed her lips, "Will it be okay tomorrow?" ”

Xue Shao smiled, "I'm afraid it won't work, it is estimated that it will take three or five days." ”

"It's so annoying, and after three or five days, are you smooth?" Princess Taiping frowned, "No, three days!" ”

"Okay, three days is three days." Xue Shao smiled.

"Don't laugh!"

……

Surrounded by a group of Yulin soldiers and eunuch palace maids, Princess Taiping's chariot drove into the Daming Palace.

Xue Shao rode a bloody horse like coals, stood in front of the Xuanwu Gate and watched the princess's car drive into the palace, and the tall city gate slowly closed and went up.

In the rumbling, a piece of dust of history fell.

The Xuanwu Gate of Daming Palace, although it is not the Xuanwu Gate of Taiji Palace where Li Shimin launched a coup d'Γ©tat, it has also undergone many coups in history and witnessed many historical moments that shook the ancient and modern times.

Xue Shao stood in front of the Xuanwu Gate, looking up at the tall city gate, the towering city wall and the Tang Dragon Flag fluttering above the city tower, the bright golden Zheng and the giant drum covered by cowhide, and the Tang Dynasty soldiers wearing bright armor and holding a big horse lance.

Jin Wuxi sinks, and the remnant sun is like blood.

Xue Shao frowned slightly and took a deep breath.

Daming Palace, majestic; Xuanwu Gate, high above.

Do I need to look up to it all the time?.

[A book friend asked, how long will the plot of Xiao Nuan last?] I replied that I had never liked Qiong Yao dramas. In fact, fundamentally speaking, I am a rough person with a military plot, and I like grandiose things. Please collect it and take your time. This book is like a pot of soup, simmering slowly to ensure that it tastes good. 】
