Chapter 108: Fate
As soon as the words fell, an unexpected situation happened. The fierce horse www.biquge.info had never been ridden on its back, and Shi Zun's move angered it, and he was extremely restless in jumping and jumping, wanting to throw Shi Zun off the horse.
Shi Zun didn't dare to be careless, holding the horse's reins tightly with one hand, the mane with the other, and the horse's belly tightly between his legs, for fear of falling. The ministers and Shi Hu who were watching on the sidelines were all frightened, but the two brothers Shi Zhan, father and son and Murong Clan, had calm faces, as if they knew the result.
Sure enough, Murong Ke said that Shi Zun didn't survive a few rounds on horseback before he was thrown to the ground, and several guards hurriedly went up to help Shi Zhan up, so that he would not be trampled by the horse's hooves.
"Damn brute!" Shi Zun scolded angrily.
Murong Jun said with a smile: "His Royal Highness King Qing, my fourth brother has already reminded you just now, this horse is very strong. ”
Shi Zun glared at Murong Jun fiercely, and pushed away the guards with some embarrassment, and the eunuch who helped him hold the clothes before hurriedly handed over Shi Zun's robe.
Shi Hu looked at Shi Zun, sighed slightly dissatisfied, waved his hand to let him step aside, at this time, Shi Yong volunteered: "Your Majesty, I am willing to give it a try!" ”
"Shi Yong, come on! If you can tame this horse, I will give you a knighthood! Shi Hu was full of expectations for Shi Yong.
Although Shi Hu is late, but many years of experience in battlefield battles tell him that this is indeed a rare good horse, as the king of a country, if his subordinates are incompetent to surrender this horse, is this not a loss of face? What Shi Hu was more concerned about at this time was his face, and even fools could see that this was a ploy of the Xianbei people.
Shi Yong untied the saber from his waist, took off his armor, and handed it to his guards.
I saw Shi Yong's face solemn, and suddenly his fists clenched, shouting "Ha"! Then he rushed towards the horse.
Perhaps this horse was really human, knowing that Shi Yong was running towards him, he did not shy away from it, picked up the horse's hooves, and also rushed towards Shi Yong.
"Your Majesty, let's take a closer look." Seeing that the scene was a little nervous, Lu An couldn't help but whisper beside Shi Hu.
"Go away, go away, what to avoid?" Shi Hu impatiently pushed Lu An away, staring at Shi Yong and the horse with his eyes.
Seeing that Shi Yong and the horse were about to collide together, I saw Shi Yong on one side, dodged the horse, turned over beautifully, and landed firmly on the horse's back.
"Good!" Shi Hu said silently, his hands clutching his sleeves tightly, expecting a miracle to happen.
Shi Yong is worthy of being the commander of the guards of the forbidden army, and he has held on the horse for several rounds, and he has not been thrown off the horse, probably everyone thought that the dust would settle like this, but the two brothers of the Murong family and Shi Zhan's father and son still did not change their faces.
Murong Ke secretly glanced at Shi Zhan's father and son, just as Shi Min also turned his head, the two looked at each other, Murong Ke's eyes were as cold as a sword, Shi Min did not shy away at all, smiled coldly, and then continued to watch Shi Yong's performance.
Shi Yong clamped the horse's belly tightly, his face was covered with sweat, and the horse under his crotch was still restless, and suddenly, he saw its two front hooves raised, and a neighing roar sounded in the sky, Shi Yong finally exhausted his strength and fell off the horse's back.
"Hey!" Shi Hu patted his thigh in disappointment, but he didn't expect Shi Yong to still fail to save face for Zhao Guo.
There was an imperceptible smugness on Murong Jun's face, and he said to Shi Hu, "Your Majesty, do you want to try it out with others again?" This horse is too strong, but it is a rare good horse, and I will tell you that no one in our Xianbei can subdue this horse. ”
Shi Hu pinched his temples, and suddenly saw Shi Zhan's father and son standing in the crowd, and then remembered that he still had a killer weapon that he hadn't used, so he shouted to Shi Zhan: "Zhan'er, you go!" ”
Shi Zhan gently pushed Shi Min and said in a low voice, "Now you can get on." ”
Shi Min understood it, stood up, and said, "Your Majesty, you don't need my father to do anything about such a trivial matter, let me come." ”
"Father, the son is injured, and Xiao Min will take action, it is enough." Shi Zhan saluted Shi Hu and said.
Shi Hu looked at Shi Min solemnly, nodded, and said, "Go!" Don't let me down! ”
Shi Min nodded and walked out.
"Murong Gongzi, this horse has been tossing for a long time, do you want to feed some grain and grass before I do it? lest you be subdued by me for a while, and your hearts will not be convinced. Shi Min turned his head and glanced at Murong Jun and said with a smile.
"Childe don't worry, this horse has excellent horsepower, you can do your best." Murong Jun is obviously not so optimistic about Shi Min's skills, although he knows that with Murong Ke's martial arts, it is not enough to defeat Shi Min, but in Murong Jun's eyes, Shi Min's ability is only slightly higher than Murong Ke.
Shi Min was fifty paces away from the horse at this time, he was not in a hurry, neither rubbing his fists like Shi Zun, nor shouting like Shi Yong, just clenching his fists and walking towards the horse step by step.
Almost all of them exchanged heads and talked about each other, not understanding why Shi Min hadn't made any moves, but Murong Ke and Shi Zhan had solemn faces, and their eyes were staring at Shi Min's every move.
Only a very few people could see that every step Shi Min took at this time had a powerful aura, his steps were steady, and his breath was deep.
"Look at the horse! Actually took a step back! Suddenly someone in the crowd shouted.
Shi Hu, who was already sitting on the chair, immediately stood up when he heard this, rubbed his eyes, and saw that Shi Min had already walked up to the horse, stretched out his hand to grab the reins of the horse, and the horse actually subconsciously took a step back.
Shi Yong rubbed his wrists, stood next to Shi Hu, and said to himself: "It's really the reincarnation of the overlord!" ”
"What do you mean?" Shi Hu frowned and asked Shi Yong, who was muttering.
Shi Yong hurriedly replied: "Your Majesty, you see, this horse is vermilion, no half of the variegated color, the hair is shiny, fat and healthy, it is definitely a rare good horse in the world, it is said that good horses are spiritual, this horse sees his subordinates and King Qing is extremely violent, but only when he sees Min Gongzi, he seems to have a sense of surrender and fear, and it is rumored that when Xiang Yu, the overlord of Chu, surrendered to the black horse, it was the same situation!" This is really fateful! ”
Shi Hu stroked his beard and nodded, as if he felt that Shi Yong's words were very reasonable, and continued to stare at Shi Min.
When Shi Min stretched out his hand, the horse just dodged backwards, and did not gallop like just now, Shi Min smiled slightly, quickly took a step forward, shot again, firmly grabbed the reins of the horse, kicked the ground with both legs, and turned over on the horse's back.
"Drive!" Shi Min slapped the horse's buttocks hard, clamped his legs, and the horse's front hooves took off, neighed again, and then ran around the clearing.
Only this time Shi Min was on horseback, the horse did not make any resistance, the sound of horses' hooves, Shi Min rode on horseback, and suddenly felt like a gallop.
"Good horse!" Shi Min shouted excitedly.
"Your Majesty! Min Gongzi succeeded! Shi Yong also said to Shi Hu with some excitement.
Shi Hu finally breathed a sigh of relief, Shi Min did not live up to his expectations and saved face for Zhao Guo.
Murong Ke's face was like ashes, looking at Shi Min on horseback, and he was very unwilling. Although Murong Jun didn't believe that Shi Min could surrender such a fierce horse so easily, the facts were in front of him, and he said to Shi Hu with a smile: "Your Majesty, today I have opened my eyes, I can't think of Zhao Guo Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, I don't know who this little general is?" ”
"This is my most beloved grandson! The son of Xihuahou! Shi Hu said proudly.
When Murong Jun heard this, he turned his head and smiled awkwardly at Shi Zhan, and said: "It's really a tiger father without a dog, Xihua Hou has a good godson, you have such a powerful son, it's really admirable!" ”
Shi Zhan replied politely: "Murong Gongzi is polite, Shi is not talented, the dog surrendered this horse is just a fluke, but it is the skill of the younger brother, which is deeply admired." ”
Murong Jun frowned slightly, and immediately asked with a smile: "The younger brother did not surrender this horse, how can Xihuahou see that the younger brother is outstanding?" ”
Shi Zhan looked at this Murong Jun and said: "Murong Gongzi is not polite, anyone with a discerning eye can see that Brother Ling can hold down this fierce horse with only his arms, although he did not surrender, but there are so many people present today, except for Ben Hou and the dog, I am afraid that no one can do it, right?" Such divine power, at his young age of fifteen or sixteen, is extremely rare, so you don't have to be modest, childe. ”
"I can't see that Murong Hao's sons are so powerful, one is brave and strategic, and the other is invincible, today I can be regarded as opening my eyes." After listening to Shi Zhan's words, Shi Hu couldn't help but be wary of the two Murong brothers in his heart.
Murong Jun heard the murderous intent in Shi Hu's words, and said: "Your Majesty has won the prize, my younger brother is a brute force, but he is a little imbecile, short-tempered, and he is not a normal person." ”
Shi Hu snorted coldly, didn't pay any attention to Murong Jun anymore, and shouted to Shi Min on horseback: "Xiao Min, come down!" Come to me! ”
Shi Min heard Shi Hu shouting at him, hurriedly stopped the horse, and saw that Shi Hu was waving at him, so he jumped off the horse, led him over, and knelt down to Shi Hu and said, "Your Majesty, your grandson has lived up to your expectations and successfully surrendered this horse!" ”
Shi Hu stepped forward, helped Shi Min up, and said, "Young and promising!" Sure enough, it's good! ”
"It's a blessing from Your Majesty, so it's going so well! The horses that the Xianbei people can't subdue, we Zhao people can! Shi Min said, glancing at the two Murong brothers with a little disdain.
