Li Kuan sat in the carriage and swayed towards the outside of the city. A half-sized dog was running briskly beside the carriage, following the carriage. He also wore a brass bell around his neck, and he thought about jingling when he ran.

Li Er's family has already moved into the East Palace of the Prince, even if there was a bloody case here just a few days ago. But the family lives in peace of mind, but Li Kuan is still a little worried in his heart, admiring Li Er, the eldest grandson, and the other two Xiao Zhengtai who know the truth.

Today's trip out of the city is to learn to ride a horse, this is one of Li Kuan's goals, in the past few years, he has been busy recovering his sieve-like body, but he has neglected to practice the riding and archery skills that these children of ancient families must master, and now he is about to make up for it.

So in the recent period, his body is almost all healed, and only the last bit of dark injury is left, but it does not affect his learning of other things. Now the place he is going to is a horse farm in the east of Chang'an City, which is an exclusive horse farm that has always provided mounts for the royal family, where Li Kuan adopted a war horse with a black and shiny body, the reason why it is called adoption is because as the owner of the war horse, if you want to be very familiar with your own mount, you must personally raise this horse for a period of time to cultivate tacit understanding. If you go to the battlefield in the future, you won't have an accident with a mount that you are not familiar with.

Li Kuan will go out of the city every day these days, to ride a black war horse he named called chasing clouds to run two laps, as for learning the skill of horseback riding, there is no difficulty for Li Kuan, he has long been a horse step, the plate is reliable, and the highest level of horse step is to stand out of thin air a horse: that is to say, stand on the flat ground horse step. If you want to do your best, you need to have your body undulating, like riding on a galloping war horse, as long as you reach this realm. Zama step can be considered complete.

Li Kuan has not yet reached this realm, but it is not far away, so he can ride all the way to chasing the clouds in only half a day's effort, he enjoys this feeling of galloping, very free, like riding on his beloved heavy locomotive in the future.

When he came to the racecourse, Li Kuan whistled. A black horse was like a black streamer, and it galloped out of the herd, and the war horse neighed. Tell Li Kuan about its joy. Li Kuan greeted him straight, and was about to collide with the horse, but the horse's front legs lifted and the man stood up, and gave a long snort. stopped directly in front of Li Kuan.

"Haha...... Chasing the clouds. Did you miss me? Li Kuan stepped forward and gently stroked the fur of the war horse and combed the mane on its neck.

The war horse brought the horse's face in front of Li Kuan, exhaled a long breath, and sprayed it on his face.

"Let's go, let's go run two laps!" Li Kuan turned over and got on the horse, chasing the clouds and galloping away directly, and the little gray ash that had been following Li Kuan also screamed and chased after him.

Li Kuan sat on horseback. Galloping with the footsteps of chasing the clouds and undulating his body, at this moment he was experiencing the highest meaning of horse steps. Because there are few opportunities to ride horses in later generations, it is difficult for those who practice boxing to achieve this highest level of horse step, and now Li Kuan has the opportunity to experience it, of course, he will not miss it.

But just halfway through today, Chasing Yun let out a mournful roar and almost threw Li Kuan off the horse. Li Kuan tightly held the reins so that he was not thrown off, and jumped off the horse in a hurry: "What's wrong?" In a hurry, Li Kuan forgot to chase the clouds and couldn't understand him.

Li Kuan, who got off the horse, noticed that he had run to the edge of the horse farm, which was full of thorns, because he was afraid that the horses would run out, and Li Kuan usually turned around when he arrived here, but today he realized the horse step on horseback and forgot about this stubble, which pierced the cuticle on the horse's hooves of chasing clouds, and the originally tame chasing clouds became violent under the pain.

"Chasing the clouds, stop!" The horse was struggling, and Li Kuan simply used his strength to trip the horse to the ground with all his might, and then comforted and stroked its fur.

The guards who saw this scene also hurried to arrive, and the horsemen of the horse farm also appeared here, and now the prince's son practiced equestrianism here, how dare these people not accompany them, so they all jumped out as soon as something happened.

"Second son, what's going on?" The leader of the guard named Wang Hu stepped forward and asked.

"The horse's hooves chasing the clouds have been pierced by thorns!" Li Kuan replied: "The groom came to see if it could be cured?" ”

The groom hurriedly stepped forward to salute Li Kuan and began to check, and it didn't take long to come to the conclusion that it had just pierced the cuticle and did not pierce the soles of his feet. As long as you pull out those thorns and then cultivate them well for half a month, you will recover.

Li Kuan directly ordered to pull it out here, after all, it was too far away from the ranch house, and it was obviously not suitable to transport it back, so it was good here. A few of the guards stepped forward and held down the horses, and the groom began to carefully pull out the thorns. Chasing Yun's body was struggling but was held down by the guards, Li Kuan comforted on the side, and was thinking in his heart: How could it be pierced? Isn't there a horseshoe now?

Li Kuan, who grew up in the countryside, is no stranger to horseshoes, when he was a child, there were no country roads or anything, and repairing houses and building houses and the like all rely on pack horses. The pack horses all had horseshoes.

Thinking of this, Li Kuan turned around and went to see the groom pulling out the thorns, and sure enough, there was nothing on the hooves of the horse chasing the clouds, can such a war horse run fast on the battlefield? Those swords and weapons scattered on the battlefield are all killer-like storage for horses' hooves, and stepping on them may abolish a war horse, so isn't the loss of war horses in the army very large? This is not good, Datang Chujian can't afford such a loss, it seems that he still has to get the horseshoe out.

In this way, Li Kuan began to carry out this work secretly in the next half month, although it can be changed, but Li Kuan does not want to rely too much on the system now, because then he will feel that he is very poor, and the energy points are very few now.

Time passed quietly, Li Kuan has been secretly carrying out his practice, iron and stoves are really not difficult to find in Chang'an City, just go to some corners, there are those small workshops opened by craftsmen, specially for each family to make some iron pots, kitchen knives, braziers and the like.

Li Kuan casually found one, and began to build his own business, ironwork is one of the skills he will not have, in his previous life, the pressure of job competition was high, he did not have a diploma to compete but the millions of super Warcraft college students every year, can only work in some small towns and towns, ironwork is the longest job he has done, because of the great strength of the practice, in the small towns and towns still rely on the small workshop of hand-made iron, he is very popular.

The horseshoe is not bothersome, but the rest of the things make him worried, because Li Er is about to ascend the throne and become the emperor, this congratulatory gift must be wanted, although as a child, as long as the heart is reached, but if it is the same as Li Chengqian, Li Ke These little guys Li Kuan felt that his face was a little unbearable, so he could only win by surprise, maybe it could be like this!

After that, Li Kuan went to quietly find the eldest grandson once, and then Jiuxianju shipped out several large boxes, I don't know what they contained, but left deep rut marks on the dirt road, and then Chang'an's lamp oil began to sell well, and the price rose all the way until it finally rose by more than three percent.

That's right, Li Kuan is looking for money from his eldest grandson to buy lamp oil. And the eldest grandson has long had this meaning, because the matter was undecided, there may be more places to use the money, but now that the dust has settled, then the money that belongs to Li Kuan, the eldest grandson directly gave it all to him, enough tens of thousands of taels of silver, packed in several large boxes. And the eldest grandson also explained that in the future, Jiuxianju will be independent, she will be in charge of the inner house, this Jiuxianju will have a special steward to manage, Li Kuan can go to any Jiuxianju when he needs money, as long as there are many in the store, you can take all of them if you want. Compared with the other businesses of the royal family, the little silver that Jiuxianju earns now is no longer in the eyes of Changsun Fa, because any business of the royal family is super huge, and the annual profit is much larger than that of Jiuxianju, which only has a firm foothold in Chang'an City. And Jiuxianju is Li Kuan's industry, and in the past two years, Jiuxianju has earned a lot for her eldest grandson, allowing her to survive the most difficult times. That money should be regarded as the money for the construction of these restaurants, which means that Jiuxianju is now Li Kuan's private property.

Of course Li Kuan is not polite, as early as when he asked for money before but saw that the eldest grandson was still hesitant, Li Kuan felt that he should be financially independent, and now that the eldest grandson said it, it would be better to do it!

In the East Palace, Li Er sat behind a desk and looked at Wang Hu, who was kneeling on the ground in front of him: "What has Kuan'er been busy with lately?" It's been almost two months, and he's still buying lamp oil? Li Er's voice was low, indescribably majestic, since he sat on the crown prince, the coercion on his body began to change from the evil aura of a horse general, to a kind of majesty in a high position, not angry and self-authoritative, rather than a murderous and breathtaking deterrent.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, the second prince has been buying lamp oil all this time, and the price of lamp oil in Chang'an City has risen by three percent!" Wang Hu replied.

"It seems that the scientist behind Kuan'er is going to make a move again, these guys either want charcoal or fire oil, lamp oil, these things that can ignite fire, is the energy they are talking about in these things?" Li Er had been wondering what this energy was since he talked to Chen Quan, and now he had a vague conjecture. Because it should be something that can be burned, and there is an unknown thing in it that makes them burn.

In this way, Li Kuan frantically swept the Chang'an market, time passed quietly, but the little gray gray lived a miserable life because the owner ignored it, because the two little Loli liked to grab it and dress it up, and the small one also wanted to ride a big dog, and even specially invited someone to formulate a dog saddle, as well as small leather armor, small leather pants, small boots, wooden knives and small swords (Miss Yun is mighty, I like this section the most!). ）。

If it weren't for the fact that Little Gray Ash was still small and didn't grow in size, he might have become a war dog with the same treatment as a war horse.

The time has come to September, the autumn wind is blowing, the fallen leaves are Xiaoxiao, the day of Li Er's accession to the throne is gradually approaching, and Li Kuan is also ready for the final preparations. (To be continued......)
