At night, in the main house of the county guard.

Liu Yu and Mrs. Ao sat opposite each other, talking at night. "Husband, do you mean that Cai Yuanjun proposed marriage at today's banquet?" Mrs. Ao was the first to ask. Liu Yu nodded and said, "That's right, during the day, Brother Bo was full of praise for Lie'er after he subdued that good horse from the Western Regions. During the afternoon banquet, Brother Bo asked me what I thought. Mrs. Ao said: "Cai Yuanjun's name is known all over the world, his daughter Cai Yan has the name of a talented woman when she was young, if she marries Lie'er, it is also a match made in heaven, but I don't know how old Cai Yan is now?" Liu Yu stroked his beard and said: "When Brother Bo talked about his little Yan today, his face was full of self-satisfaction, and he wanted to come to the name of a talented woman, which should be true. Otherwise, the person who is the brother of the uncle will not be complacent. I paid attention and asked carefully, that little Yan'er is seven years old this year, but she is one year younger than Lie'er. Mrs. Ao smiled: "Listening to the tone of the husband, it seems to be a little interesting?" Liu Yuha smiled and said: "In my opinion, this matter will be settled, Brother Bo is a great Confucian in the world, and he is also a good match with my family, what does Madame think?" Mrs. Ao nodded her head and said, "It is according to the will of the husband." ”

At noon the next day, there was another banquet in the lobby of the county guard's mansion, and Ao Laozhang, Cai Yong, and the father and son of the Liu family were all present. After three rounds of drinking, Liu Yu picked up the wine glass and saluted Cai Yong, and said: "Brother Bo, my wife and I have made a decision last night, and we have already made a decision to my father-in-law this morning. When Cai Yong heard this, he hurriedly picked up the wine glass and saluted Liu Yu, saying: "Brother Meng Bo'an will not give up, Yong is really happy in his heart, please drink this cup." The two of them said inconsequential words, which made the two teenagers Liu and Ao Lie sitting next to them confused and didn't know why.

Uncle Ao smiled and took a sip of the wine glass, then turned his head to Ao Lie and said: "Lie'er, yesterday your Uncle Cai liked your young hero and wanted to marry you as the only daughter, your parents have agreed, and the old man is also very happy in his heart." After hearing this, Ao Lie's face was immediately full of embarrassment, his face was flushed, and he said after a while: "Grandfather, Uncle Cai, father, the child is still young, will I talk about this matter later?" ”

Liu Yu smiled and waved his hand and said, "Is it early?" It's not too early, your eldest brother will marry his wife next year, and now set your lifelong events, and there will be no regrets in my father's heart. Ao Lie then remembered that it is the Eastern Han Dynasty, not the 21st century, and in this era, they generally get married at the age of fifteen or sixteen. Thinking of this, Ao Lie's face was flushed, and he saluted to everyone, saying, "The child occasionally felt cold and felt unwell, so he retired first." As for the matter of marriage, it is all up to Uncle Cai and his father. After saying that, he ran out of the lobby as if he were running away.

"Flutter", after listening to Ao Lie's words, Liu He couldn't help but squirt out a sip of wine that had just been drunk in his mouth, coughing violently, while laughing: "Occasionally, the wind is cold, cough, cough, the second brother is as strong as a cow, cough cough, and insists on practicing martial arts, where does the wind and cold come from?" Ha Luha, it's clearly thin-faced" There was a burst of laughter in the lobby, and even Liu Yu, who is usually strict with his two sons, did not accuse Liu He of being rude at the moment, but had a relieved smile on his face, and his laughter was exceptionally hearty.

Three days later, Cai Yong said goodbye to Liu Yu and left alone. Not long after Cai Yong left, Liu Yu came to the backyard, stood at the gate of the courtyard, and silently watched Ao Lie practice his sword. Almost at the moment when Liu Yu set his eyes on Ao Lie, Ao Lie's originally stretched figure suddenly became tense, like a big bow ready to fire, and the long sword in his hand changed even more, and the tip of the sword pointed directly at where Liu Yu was, as if it was a sharp arrow on the bow, ready to shoot at any time.

Liu Yu felt the dangerous aura emanating from Ao Lie's body, but he was very satisfied in his heart, and said, "It's for my father." After Ao Lie saw that it was Liu Yu, he immediately lost his momentum, put away his long sword, and saluted with his sword. Liu Yu nodded and said, "Yes, no matter what time you are, you must be vigilant enough." At no time should you throw away your weapon. Very good, my father has a deep understanding of these truths on the battlefield, but what my father doesn't understand is that you have never been on the battlefield, and you have never met a famous teacher for guidance, how do you understand these truths? ”

Ao Lie opened his mouth, but he couldn't speak, he couldn't tell his father that he had practiced an instinct in Wudang Mountain in his previous life, right? I had to prevaricate: "The child didn't understand it either, but he just felt that it should be so, so he did it." Liu Yu was surprised: "Lie'er, as you get older, your father can't see through you more and more, is this really a superhuman talent?" So that no matter what field, you have a far beyond ordinary understanding. ”

Rarely lowered his head, Ao Lie said humbly: "Father is too famous. But in my heart, I thought, "Superhuman understanding?" Whatever the field? Your son and I have traveled from more than 2,000 years later, if I wasn't afraid that you would be surprised, I would be able to memorize a thousand Tang poems and Song lyrics, these skills were practiced in the previous life. ”

Liu Yu didn't know what Ao Lie was thinking, he just laughed twice with relief, and then said to Ao Lie: "It's okay, you continue to practice swords, by the way, my father came to you to tell you that I have discussed it with your Uncle Cai, and when you reach the age of sixteen, I will let you and Yan'er worship and get married." When Ao Lie heard this, he buried his head lower, and replied in a voice not much louder than the cry of a mosquito: "Yes, but it is up to my father to decide." Liu Yu smiled and nodded, turned around and walked out.

When he was about to walk outside the courtyard, Liu Yu turned back to Ao Lie and said: "By the way, the pony that your grandfather gave you, you take more time to take care of it, the divine horse is psychic, and cultivate more feelings, which will be of great benefit to you when you go to the battlefield in the future. Ao Lie replied, "Yes, the boy wrote it down." ”

After Liu Yu left, Ao Lie held the sword but couldn't calm down to practice the sword. In his previous life, he was an orphan, and his biggest hobby was to practice ancient martial arts and exploration, and he had never talked about a girlfriend, but now he suddenly had an extra fiancée, which couldn't help but make him at a loss. What's even more dazed is that he already has a fiancée when he is only eight years old? What's going on?

"Alas, forget it, my fiancée is my fiancée, I'm afraid she won't make it, what's more, Cai Yan, hehe, in history, she is a beautiful woman with both talent and appearance, in fact, if you think about it carefully, I don't lose it, what else can't I think of." Ao Lie finally thought of a reason to comfort himself. Looking up at the sky, I simply stopped practicing the sword, anyway, today's mood has been destroyed, and there is no good effect on forcibly practicing, so it is better to take a look at the snow dragon horse that shines in the night.

When he came to the stable, far away, Ao Lie saw his own snow dragon horse, because its snow-white fur was so conspicuous, and at night, its snow-white fur could also refract the moonlight, as if emitting a layer of silver light, just like its name - light can shine at night!

Ao Lie walked quickly to the side of the Snow Dragon Horse of Zhaoye, reached out and stroked the mane of his beloved horse a few times, then put his face on the horse's face, and asked softly, "Zhaoye, did you miss me?" The night snow dragon horse hissed in a low voice, as if in response, and then stretched out his tongue and licked the back of Ao Lie's hand a few times, making Ao Lie tingling.

"Let's go, let's go out for a yo-yo." After speaking, Ao Lie let go of the reins of the snow dragon horse of Zhaoye, and then put the saddle placed on the side of the saddle on Zhaoye's back, took the reins, and walked out of the county guard's mansion.

When he came to the suburbs, Ao Lie turned over his horse, took a light picture of the neck of the night snow dragon horse, and shouted: "Hurry! "The snow dragon horse spread its hooves and ran away like a lightning speed. After running for more than half an hour, the snow dragon horse was still in good spirits, but Ao Lie, who was sitting on horseback, was a little unbearable. After running for a while, Ao Lie pulled the reins and shouted in a low voice: "Don't move! The galloping night snow dragon horse immediately retracted its strength, its hind hooves slammed into the ground, and its front hooves kicked small steps, and stood firmly on the ground. Ao Lie turned over and dismounted, stretched out his hand to wipe it on the horse's back, and saw a layer of sweat as red as blood in his palm, and praised: "Zhaoye, you are really worthy of being the descendant of the King of the Western Regions, a purebred sweat and blood horse, I heard that the sweat from the sweat and blood BMW is the same color as blood, and when I look at it today, it is indeed the case." Zhaoye understood Ao Lie's praise, raised his head, and snorted loudly, as if he replied to Ao Lie arrogantly: Of course!

Ao Lie was amused by the arrogant demeanor of the Snow Dragon Horse in the night, loosened the reins, pointed to the grass not far away, and said, "Go find some grass to eat." Zhaoye stretched out his big tongue, licked Ao Lie's face affectionately, and then trotted to find the grass to forage for food. Looking at the sturdy figure of the Snow Dragon Horse in the Night, Ao Lie suddenly felt as if he had forgotten something. After thinking about it for a long time, Ao Lie's mind flashed with inspiration, why did he feel tired after only running on a horse for more than half an hour? The answer is saddle! No wonder I always felt that there was something missing from Teruma, it turned out to be a saddle! The saddle in the Eastern Han Dynasty was a low-bridge saddle with poor stability, which made me, a person who was used to riding a high-bridge saddle in his previous life, feel very uncomfortable and laborious.

Ao Lie understood that he had overlooked a problem, that is, some commonplace things in his previous life were not available in this era. In the past, almost all horses were equipped with Takahashi saddles, bilateral stirrups, horseshoes nailed to their hooves, and even those inferior horses that were only used by tourists in tourist areas. In the Eastern Han Dynasty, these things, even on the back of the most divine horse, did not have these things, because these things had not been invented in the Eastern Han Dynasty.

Thinking about this question, Ao Lie became excited. What a sharp team it would be if you organized a cavalry of your own in the future, equipped with a Takahashi saddle, bilateral stirrups and horseshoes! By the way, there's also the Secret Treasure of Light Martial Arts! Let yourself come to this world realm of the Secret Treasure of Light Martial Arts, if you equip the Rahu Dragon Horn Axe and Fish Scale Armor in the Secret Treasure of Light Martial Arts, you can completely build an invincible heavy cavalry! In this era, heavy cavalry has not yet appeared, and people's use of cavalry is still only at the level of light cavalry and archers. There are also those swords in the Guangwu Secret Treasure, which are real killers, hey, thinking about it this way, won't he be able to organize an elite cavalry and an elite infantry like Emperor Guangwu in the future?

Hehe, Ao Lie smirked a few times, lay comfortably on the grass, looked at the blue sky, and fell into an infinite beautiful reverie.
