Chapter 32: Yan Ran smiled like jade
Tianbao eight years, the seventeenth day of the first month. The sun has just jumped out of the eastern horizon, and the clear and warm morning light shines inside and outside the city of Tingzhou, sweeping away the gloomy atmosphere of the previous days, making people feel a trace of spring that is no longer distant in the cold winter.
On the edge of the polo field on the west side of the Xida Temple, Wang Jue, dressed in a red narrow-sleeved polo suit, dressed in a silky stingray fur, reclined triumphantly in the carriage, enjoying the massage of orchid and lotus.
This stingray Qiu is Wenxitang's shopkeeper Zhou who specially begged from Yunzhou, Hedong last year. The purchase is extremely expensive, and it is much more expensive than the rotten fox fur that the small wild species often wears!
Thinking of the injury of Ono in the fire the day before yesterday, Wang Jue still couldn't help but the corners of his mouth flew and he was overjoyed. When Cui's hugged the unconscious little wild seed and cried, Wang Qi held it desperately on the side, for fear that he would laugh out loud.
It's a pity that the small wild seed is so hard-hitting, and there is no danger again and again. It doesn't matter if you fall from a startled horse outside Broken Leaf City, this time you were slapped in the back by the wreckage of the burning lamp tower in the fire, and you were only in a coma for half the night. Could it be that there is really a god and Buddha who bless the small wild seed!?
However, Wang Jue knew that Xiao Ye was proud for not long, although he didn't know Wang Peizhong's prestige in the past, but he understood that his mother had trusted Wang Peizhong's ability for so many years.
Since Wang Peizhong said that he will take action to understand this matter thoroughly, it will definitely be impossible for the little wild seed to jump for a few more days!
If Ono died, he must bring the little maid over to torture her. For the sake of a spur horseman, Xiao Ye actually dared to show a dagger at himself, did he still have the word "filial piety" in his heart! Do you know that you are the eldest son of the Taiyuan Wang family's long house!
Thinking of his father's doting on the Cui family and the little wild seed, Wang Jue couldn't help but hate itchy! The Cui family enchanted his father enchantingly, just like Hu Niang in the Qinglou, without the dignified atmosphere of everyone's ladies. said that he was born in the Qinghe Cui clan, that is, he was just bluffing others.
Qinghe Cui's family is listed as five surnames and seven wangs, and the nobility of the lintel and the depth of the heritage are still above the Pei family in Hedong. If he was really born in the Qinghe Cui family, even if he was just a concubine in a partial house, he would not easily become a side room, let alone have no contact with his mother's family. That Cui clan must be from a very low background, but dare to pretend to be a member of the Qinghe Cui clan, it is really hateful!
As for the little wild seed, it is even more speechless! I don't know what ** soup Cui's slut poured into his father, so that his father was so protective of the little wild seeds! Ever since the appearance of the small wild seed, his father's concern for him has become less and less.
Let's not mention anything else for the time being, let's just talk about the capture of Tianma on the return trip of the class teacher. There is no doubt that the golden Pegasus is a divine horse, and it is natural to present it to the saint for riding; Selecting dozens of the best horses from the captured wild horses to supplement the saint's wyvern is also the meaning of the title; It is understandable to leave the rest of the wild horses in the Han Navy to meet the needs of the campaign.
But why can the small wild breed have a little red horse that everyone praises, and he has an ordinary red horse with a black mane and black tail? Wang Jue felt very unbalanced in his heart!
If Xiao Ye died, the maid and the little red horse would have to be brought over, thinking of this, Wang Jue's heart was full of hatred and impatience!
It's just that Wang Peizhong is mysterious, and he never reveals the slightest rumor about when to take action, which is really annoying!
Forget it, I don't want to worry about the little wild seed, he won't live long anyway. Wang Jue turned over, changed his position and lay on the carriage, and asked Lan Xiang and Hexiang to beat his back.
When he turned over, Wang Jue looked up at the car window, the sun had been hanging obliquely in the eastern sky for a long time, but the expected jade man had not yet come, which was really anxious.
In the past, Wang Jue would never be so diligent and get up early. With his identity, it is too late for the teachers of the state school to meet him, who dares to restrict his work and rest time.
Therefore, as long as his father did not inquire, he often slept until three o'clock in the morning before getting up, and then took the servants to the state school to answer the ceremony.
But today, with the beautiful woman, Wang Jue still worked very hard to overcome his laziness, got up early, and under the escort of a group of domestic servants and tooth soldiers, called his friends, and came to the polo field in advance to wait.
In fact, this polo match was arranged very hastily, and it was completely improvised.
Yesterday afternoon, Wang Jue was called over by Mrs. Pei to chat a few words.
Mrs. Pei first instructed a few words, saying that Tingzhou City has not been peaceful recently, so you should bring more people with you when you travel and pay attention to safety; Then he said that when he went to Saidaiji Temple to pray for blessings, he found that there was a polo field nearby, which was surrounded by mountains and forests, which was a good place to play, and he might as well go to play a few polo games tomorrow.
On the one hand, he had to pay attention to his own safety, and on the other hand, he explained that the vicinity of Xida Temple was suitable for playing polo, how could his mother's words contradict himself?
Mrs. Pei found Wang Jue's doubts, nodded his head and said, "Remember to make an appointment with the little county gentleman in our Tingzhou City!" ”
As soon as this sentence came out, Wang Jue's heart suddenly brightened. It turns out that my mother has worked hard to create opportunities for herself!
Thinking of the previous mother's personal visit to Ashina's house to congratulate her, and spent a lot of money to build a sterling silver saddle sheath and a special polo cue to give to Ashina Xiaoyun, Wang Jue suddenly understood her mother's hard work.
For the bright and generous Ashina Xiaoyun, Wang Qi is still quite excited. Although she was not born in a family of five surnames and seven hopes, she has the blood of both the Western Turkic royal family and the Tang clan, and she is also noble and abnormal, which is very unattainable.
And the best thing is that because of the harmonious relationship between his father and Ashina's deputy protector and a lot of contacts, Wang Qi and Ashina Xiaoyun have known each other since childhood.
Although they are not childhood sweethearts because of the age difference of four or five years, the two are usually commensurate with brother and sister, and they are very familiar.
At the time of the Yuan Day Meeting, the sage personally issued an edict and enshrined Ashina Xiaoyun as the monarch of Suye County, which made her status even higher.
The sage's edict shows that Ashina's deputy protector and Mrs. Li are both in the emperor's heart, and their future is limitless.
In the future, if you can marry Ashina Xiaoyun as your wife, you can not only hold the beauty in your arms, but also have the support of the Taiyuan Wang family, the Pei family of Hedong and the old Western Turkic department, and you can also be involved with the Tang royal family, it is really a great joy in life! No wonder my mother was so concerned about this! Sure enough, my mother loves herself the most!
However, Wang Jue knew that in Tingzhou City, Xiao Langjun, who had the same calculation, could be said to be a car bucket.
It doesn't matter if it's far away, just Gao Xiangui, who follows him every day, drools nervously every time he sees Ashina Xiaoyun. It is rumored that Gao Xiangui's mother, Mrs. Song, has often been fighting with Mrs. Li recently, presumably coveting her Xiaoyun sister!
What's even more ridiculous is that some time ago, after Lan Xiang and Mei Xiang chatted, they actually said that Xiao Ye also liked Ashina Xiaoyun very much! This little wild species, the toad still wants to eat swan meat, it's really beyond my strength! At this time, Wang Jue couldn't wait for Xiao Ye to die violently today!
Wang Jue was cursing Xiao Ye Seed over and over again, when he suddenly heard Gao Xiangui's slightly nervous voice outside the car window: "Brother Jue, here, here!" ”
Listening to Gao Xiangui's vague, nervous and trembling words, Wang Jue was very happy in his heart.
This Gao Xiangui, calculated according to seniority and ranking, and the four towns of Anxi, which are in the limelight, make Gao Xianzhi a clan brotherhood.
But whether it is looking up or down, left or right, Gao Xiangui's short and fat body can't find the slightest resemblance to the handsome Gao Jiedu, which makes people feel particularly funny.
"Senior brother, you have to speak clearly, otherwise who knows what you mean? You just say, 'Come, come!' 'Who's coming?' Before Wang Qi got out of the carriage, he heard someone lazily quip.
There is no need to guess, this tone that doesn't care about anything must be Zhang Dejia, the nephew of Zhang Daobin, the supervisor of the Beiting Army.
Zhang Daobin, as a eunuch in the Inner Servant Province, naturally has no heirs. But human nature is like this, the more you don't have it, the more you want it, and the more you don't get it, the more you want it. Since ancient times, those who have been temple supervisors, either for the elderly or to make up for it, are more keen to adopt the moth Yizi.
Of course, for eunuchs, the most convenient and reliable thing is to adopt their nephews or nephews, and the protection of blood relations is much more reliable than that of people with foreign surnames.
Zhang Dejia is the son of Zhang Daobin's younger brother, and he has been sluggish since he was a child. At that time, Zhang Daobin had already made a name for himself in the Ministry of Internal Service and was appreciated by Gaolis. So he took Zhang Dejia as his own and brought him to Chang'an City.
Later, Zhang Daobin was able to do things, and was appreciated by the saints and Gao Weng, and his power became increasingly powerful, and he received many righteous sons. But what Zhang Daobin cares about the most is his nephew Zhang Dejia.
Therefore, when he was ordered to come to Beiting to serve as a supervisor, Zhang Daobin gave a generous gift, asked for Gao Weng's consent, and gave Zhang Dejia a general from Jiupin, and took him with him in the name of training.
Zhang Dejia is lazy and naughty by nature, but he can get along with Wang Jue and Gao Xiangui. The three of them have similar identities, and they are all studying in Beiting State School at the moment, so they often hunt and frolic together.
Wang Jue tightened his stingray fur, held the hand of the servant, and stepped down from the carriage. After standing still, he looked to the east from afar, and saw that in the majestic silhouette composed of the West Gate Tower and the Xida Temple in Tingzhou, a group of chariots and horses were coming.
At the head of the procession, there was a small white horse wearing a silver saddle sheath, shining in the sun, like a heavenly horse. There is no need to guess, this is naturally Ashina's mount Bai Lianju. The white horse is like a dragon, the beauty is like a jade, bathed in the winter morning light, which makes people feel relaxed and happy.
The speed of the carriage and horse was very fast, and after a moment's effort, Wang Jue could clearly see the vigorous Ashina Xiaoyun on Bai Lianju.
Since she was playing polo today, Ashina Xiaoyun wore a white tight-fitting narrow-sleeved polo suit, covered with a silver-white mink fur, which set off her spotlessly, and her white clothes fluttered like an immortal.
The beauty is in front, as bright as the peony is beginning to bloom, and the holiness is like the first bloom of the white lotus, Wang Jue can't help but be dazzled. Gao Xiangui, who was standing behind him, was even more unbearable, and his saliva was already habitually flowing out again.
Only Zhang Dejia knew that he was the son of the inner eunuch, and his identity was embarrassing and he couldn't climb high, so he never had any thoughts about Ashina Xiaoyun. At this time, among the three friends, he is the only one who can still retain a sense of sobriety.
But even so, the brightness of Ashina's clouds made him feel like winter was over, spring had returned to the earth, and flowers were in full bloom.
The horse team was getting closer and closer, and behind Bai Lianju, a little red horse suddenly burst out, and it jumped mischievously and easily, overtaking Bai Lianju, and turned around and neighed, obviously provoking Bai Lianju to be inferior to himself.
After seeing the little red horse, Wang Qi's face changed. After receiving an order from his mother yesterday afternoon, he returned to his house and immediately wrote an invitation and sent someone to deliver it to Ashina Xiaoyun. He knew that Ashina Xiaoyun loved polo, and he shouldn't refuse.
Sure enough, the servant quickly brought back a message from Ashina Xiaoyun, saying that she would definitely participate, and she would mobilize Wang Fei, Wenxia and others to come together. As for how to group and what kind of rules to play, let's wait until tomorrow to decide on the spot.
Wang Jue didn't think much about it when he heard it, anyway, all he cared about was Ashina Xiaoyun, and he didn't care who the others were.
However, out of a little selfishness, he still sent another letter to Ashina Xiaoyun, saying that he hoped to be able to fight side by side with Xiaoyun's sister tomorrow, and he felt that the red polo suit would be particularly suitable.
A moment later, Wang Qi received a message from Ashina Xiaoyun, which was very simple, just three words: "Got it." ”
Wang Qi thought that this was Ashina Xiaoyun's acquiescence to his suggestion, and his heart was so beautiful that he couldn't do it, so he came over directly in a red polo uniform today.
As for Gao Xiangui and Zhang Dejia, Wang Jue informed them to prepare red and white polo uniforms.
But Wang Jue never thought that Ashina Xiaoyun would actually call Xiao Ye Seed over. It's like suddenly discovering a fly hidden in a bowl while you're feasting, which is really embarrassing.
And Ashina's white-clothed Shengxue's dress obviously won't be wearing a red polo suit, which makes Wang Qi particularly disappointed.
