The trip to Lishan was initiated by Li You, the king of Qi, and many young ladies from Chang'an were invited. In addition to the guards, there were eleven people, including Xia Shang, Li You, Li Luo, Changsun Wen, Fang Yizhi, Wei Shuxuan, and Yang Yuzhi. They are all sons of official families, and they are all idle people at present. Li Luo has two daughters, one is called Ouyang Mustard, the little daughter of the Ouyang family, but she is also a well-known talented woman, and her previous works such as "Under the Fence" and "Flower Spring" have been changed into small songs and sung by the Qing people of Chang'an Hualou. The other is Wu Ruyi.

The future empress had little leisure before entering the palace, and after the boring ritual training, someone invited Lishan and his party to readily agree.

In addition to these people, there is a man and a woman.

Like Xia Shang, they are all nameless and surnameless, and it is said that the men were brought by the eldest grandson Wen, and the women were led by Yang Yuzhi. It is worth mentioning that this woman was neatly dressed, riding a horse by herself, with a bow and arrows, and looked as heroic as a man from a distance.

The team was large, and there were some people around, Xia Shang seemed a little cramped, so he didn't look at Wu Ruyi's direction.

What's worse is that three carriages were given to three women, and Lishan is a long way to go, so they have to ride horses.

Xia Shang, like other traversers, was a little jealous of horses, but when he thought that if he was a big man who couldn't ride a horse, it would be a trivial matter to be laughed at, but it would be bad to arouse suspicion.

Therefore, Xia Shang rushed to the horse without saying a word, fortunately he got on the back of the horse, but the action was a little strange.

The horse was a little restless, his front hooves moved left and right, Xia Shang was so nervous that he didn't dare to stand up, and he crawled on the horse's back and clutched the reins.

At first, no one noticed Xia Shang, and the team soon set off.

Li Shimin didn't allow juniors to play on such a scale, but this time it was because Li You was about to be assigned a fief, so he made an exception with this reason. Li You was very anxious, like a wild horse about to gallop, all urging the team to go fast, during which he didn't know what to brag about with a few fox friends and dogs, and laughed loudly at the front of the team.

Xia Shang lay on the horse's back, his legs between the horse's hind hips, and the horse didn't know how to walk, twisting left and right and barely following at the end. No one saw Xia Shang, only the guards on foot were snickering.

Xia Shang had never encountered such an embarrassing situation, his face was a little unbearable, and he was a little annoyed in his heart, so he scolded in a low voice: "Damn horse, can't you walk well?" ”

The horse seemed to understand, and suddenly snorted, and the horse's back shook for a while, so frightened that Xia Shang hugged the horse's neck and apologized vigorously: "Master Ma, you are angry, you can go as you want, as long as you don't lose me." ”

At this time, the team suddenly stopped, and all eyes began to come to Xia Shang's side.

It turned out that Li Luo noticed that Xia Shang was weird and asked Li You to ask Xia Shang if he was uncomfortable.

Xia Shang's current appearance does look a little uncomfortable, and everyone thinks that Xia Shang is uncomfortable.

Xia Shang couldn't stand everyone's questions, and in the end, he only honestly admitted that he couldn't ride a horse.

This answer caught everyone by surprise, perhaps because it was too incredible, and everyone forgot to laugh at it. The question that then arises is what if you don't know how to ride a horse?

Is it possible to let Xia Shang hike like an escort?

This obviously doesn't work, Xia Shang was invited by Li You, and walking is not only disrespectful to Xia Shang, but Li You can't save face. But what if you don't hike? There aren't many carriages here.

Although they were all invited friends, these sons didn't take Xia Shang seriously, and some of them also learned the real reason why Li You invited Xia Shang to come, thinking that he was just a cook, and riding a horse really lifted him, and he should have walked with the guards in terms of identity.

Just as someone was about to say let Xia Shang hike, Li Luo, who was at the front, suddenly shouted: "Let Brother Xia come and sit in my carriage." ”

A "Brother Xia" surprised a group of people.

Princess Runan is the most favored princess of His Majesty today, and there is no one.

Princess Runan has to affectionately shout "big brother" The whole world has not found the second one, even several princes are just called "royal brother" or "elder brother".

What's even worse is that Princess Runan let him get in the car!

That's the princess's car, even Li You can't share it, how can an unknown guy with an unknown surname be with the princess, and how dare he be with the princess?!

Xia Shang didn't think too much about it, he didn't want to ride this broken horse for a long time, and went in the direction of Li Luo.

A group of people were stunned, and said in their hearts that this kid really dares?!

Li You saw that the situation was not right, and was busy outside the sedan chair and said: "Runan, this is not appropriate, I can't do it." ”

As soon as Li You's words fell, Xia Shang had already climbed into the car, but he only climbed into the car, did not lift the curtain, and sat on the wooden board connecting the carriage and horses through the curtain, showing a comfortable expression, looking at everyone strangely.

"What's wrong? Why are you looking at me? ”

Li You was speechless, and Li Luo's voice came from the car: "Fifth brother, what's wrong with this?" Brother Xia is just sitting on the shelf. ”

Everyone thinks about it, and there really is nothing wrong with the current situation.

Of so many people, only Xia Shang understood Li Luo's true intentions, and there seemed to be a tacit understanding in the dark.

Xia Shang himself didn't think anything, but the people around him regarded Xia Shang as someone who was very close to Princess Runan, otherwise how could he have such an intimate title? How can there be such a tacit understanding?

On the next journey, Xia Shang sat in front of the princess's car and formed a different scenery, and more and more people quietly inquired about Xia Shang's identity with Li You.

Li You only said that he was a delicious and virtuous shopkeeper, but no one believed him.

Wu Ruyi was driving in the car after the princess, first driving the curtain and looking at Xia Shang curiously, and couldn't help but smile when he saw Xia Shang shaking his feet comfortably on the frame. Even Ouyang Mustard Qin in the last carriage was a little curious about Xia Shang.

Everyone was curious, only Li Luo was secretly happy, through the curtain, it could be seen that Xia Shang's position was very close to the car curtain, and the back and curtain were attached.

Li Luo became curious and gently poked him with his fingers.

Xia Shang could only grit his teeth and straighten his back, not daring to squeak, but he couldn't stand it in time and quickly bent down again, only to be poked around by Nizi in the carriage again.

Xia Shang couldn't bear it anymore and ignored it, but then he turned into two ears and fingers crawling slowly on his back, like two ants burrowing into his heart, itching terribly.

Xia Shang's back is straight for a while, bent for a while, and the space on the board is limited and he can't move it at will, so he really wants to ask which tendon is wrong with this Nizi, if he can, Xia Shang would rather ride the horse again.

Feeling that the princess was becoming more and more affectionate to him, Xia Shang was a little confused, he really didn't know what he had done, why did he let the princess target him?

I couldn't figure it out after thinking about it for a long time, but I heard the laughter in the carriage.

"The road to Lishan is not easy to walk!"
