On the third day of the Lunar New Year, it was a sunny day in the morning, she sat up from the bed, leaned on the edge of the bed, looked out the window, and the light seeping in through the window paper made her feel comfortable.

"Girl, why are you still in bed? It's all three poles a day, and if you don't move faster, it's too late. Feng'er walked in from outside with her face wash.

Xinyue stretched her waist and lay on the pillow a little lazily, "It's said that the New Year is the most leisurely time, why do I have something to do on any day?" It looks like this year is going to be a year of hard work for me."

"Phew! Don't let the girl say such unlucky things. Girl, your year has been the smoothest and most leisurely year, and every year after that. She reached out and pulled Crescent Moon up, and Crescent Moon had to get up from the bed and sit down slowly on the dressing table.

The riding and archery suit for today is ready. Blue and white, to this rare warm winter day, there is a little warmth, the crescent moon steadily paced a few boots on the feet, women's riding clothes, not shorter than men's clothes, light legs, in addition to wearing trousers and boots, there is a wide skirt outside, the whole leg has to be covered, the crescent moon turned his skirt, said that it is a riding shooting suit, but it is better than nothing, but there is no need to wear the wide-sleeved gown, people have a sense of lightness, the new moon will be the hair of the crescent tight, first soaked in shavings water, Tightly braided into a long braid, fixed on the top of the head in a ball, and wrapped with a hair net, and finally, fixed with two pairs of long hairpins, the crescent moon shook her head, and said with a smile, "I just carry this hair to the battlefield, and the enemy army will come to chop my head, and it may not be able to hurt my flesh." ”

"Girl, be dignified." As she spoke, Mama Wang pressed the crescent moon on the chair again, and wrapped it around her hair with a jade belt, one to fix it again, and the other to add some color to her hair and show her identity.

Xinyue also let them dress up for themselves, looking at the hour, it was too late for breakfast, Xinyue looked at the melons and vegetables on the table with some relatives, white porridge and purple rice cakes, and could only pick up a piece of purple rice cake, and quickly put it in her mouth while Mama Wang didn't find it.

When he went out, the groom had already tied the saddle, and tied a cotton belt on the horse's legs, and wore a silver horse face on the horse's face, which would make the horse feel more good. Sure enough, Sanzhou was much more magnificent than usual, and Xinyue saw that the groom was also very kind, so she didn't change it again, turned over and got on the horse, and Feng'er followed on another horse, and Fei'er, Mo'er, and Mama Wang were also together, following in a carriage.

Xinyue tied the hat on her head, and the orchid embroidery on the hat made her can't help but reach out and touch it, and Feng'er said to Xinyue, "Girl, are you leaving?" ”

Crescent Moon nodded "Go"

After speaking, Xinyue waved the horsewhip and tightened the horse's belly, so that the two of them went to the north of the city, the Jiang family's horse breeding village.

In the north of the city where Xinyue lives, in addition to a barracks closest to the capital, Beiying, there are many Zhuangzi like stars. The reason why Xinyue settled in the north of the city is also because of these Zhuangzi, and she lives outside the city alone, so there will be no bad rumors.

And the Jiang family's horse Zhuangzi went north for about four or five miles, at this time it was just past noon, and when he walked to the horse road in front of Zhuangzi, there were four or five small maids, and two steady mothers-in-law, leading the way, the new moon slowed down the speed of the horse, a small guy held the reins of the new moon, and the other stopped to the new moon and saluted, "Say hello to the new moon lord." ”

"Don't be so polite, a few young ladies and ladies of your family are here?" Crescent asked.

"The two young ladies of the eldest marquis's family, and his wife have not yet come, but the third master is here with a young master and a young lady." Jiang Yang is the second in Jiang Wanjiang's Hou Ye's family, and the son of the Hou family in Zhenbei is older than Jiang Zan, so Jiang Yang has become the third master in the mouth of these little guys. As for the young master and Miss Cousin, they should be Jiang Yang's son Jiang Feng, and Jiang Feng's cousin Ya'er.

And the mercy of the Hou family in Zhenbei, Zhou Huan, Qiu Ying'er and her friends in the boudoir have not yet come.

When she heard that she was not the last to arrive, Xinyue was really relieved, there was a little girl to lead the horse for herself, and she was also happy.

Entering through the main entrance, Crescent Moon dismounted, led by Mama, to the large racecourse in the backyard, while his horse was left to the little maid, and he led him to the racetrack from another road.

The mother-in-law who guided her was sent by Mrs. Zhuang, because there are many women today, and with these mothers-in-law here, you can also have fun.

Passing through the main hall, there is an alley on the north side, and then walking hundreds of steps into it, before coming to the racecourse behind, this place is accompanied by the mountains of dozens of miles behind, all of which are the land of the Jiang family, and there are some prey on the mountain, which can be used by people who come here to run horses to hunt or something.

Xinyue tidied up his clothes, Jiang Yang was leading a pony, and on the pony sat his son, ten-year-old Jiang Feng, and his cousin Ya'er, who was sitting in the shed next to the racecourse, looking at the people on the racecourse with some boredom.

As soon as Xinyue walked into the racecourse, it attracted the attention of these three people, Jiang Yang handed the reins in his hand to Jiang Feng, "I'll go to greet the Xinyue County Lord, you ride slowly." ”

Jiang Feng was also sensible when he thought about it, and he didn't say anything, and Xinyue saw Jiang Yang walking towards him, and Xinyue didn't stop at his feet, and walked forward.

The two only met on the periphery of the racecourse, and the new moon refused, "But am I late?" ”

"Didn't come just in time, where's your horse?" Jiang Yang looked around, but did not see her horse.

Xinyue smiled, "It's not that you can't enter the horse in the front yard, the little guy in your house can only lead it from behind, here" Xinyue pointed behind Jiang Yang, and Jiang Yang saw the tall figure of Sanzhou.

"Can you come and see my horse?" Jiang Yang said with some smugness.

Crescent Moon rarely saw such a relaxed expression on his face, and said, "Didn't I see you riding yesterday?" ”

Jiang Yang, you smiled, "I happened not to ride it out yesterday, so the three boats that were not defeated by you will open your eyes today, and take a look at the war horses under my command, and I will definitely not lose to you." ”

After speaking, Jiang Yang whistled, and the sound of the whistle was not loud, but it spread far away. In the blink of an eye, the crescent moon heard the sonorous sound of horses' hooves.

What caught her eye was a pale chestnut horse, the color of the horse in the sun, glowing golden, and more stable than gold, and the hind hooves of this horse were more powerful and long, this horse was the most suitable for overcoming obstacles in the battlefield, and could march quickly, full of warhorses.

Jiang Yang was stunned when he saw Xinyue, he knew that she was a person who knew horses, and whistled again, the lightly chestnut-colored horse seemed to understand human words, and in a blink of an eye, he stopped steadily in front of the two people, lowered his arrogant head, and let Jiang Yang stroke its head, Xinyue was just about to stretch out his hand, the horse became vigilant, and asked us to run here, but Xinyue saw that these horses were so smart, and they would make fake movements to make the enemy afraid, but Xinyue didn't eat this trick, she didn't dodge, Jiang Yang jumped, Jiang Yang immediately tightened the reins in his hand, but the head of his horse frustrated the body of the new moon, and was touched by the new moon. And such a calm crescent moon in front of him made this quite human horse have some good feelings.

The crescent moon touched the soft horse's mane, and then looked at its dark and dark eyes, and there were thick eyelashes on the eyelids, which were very beautiful, and said, "This is Yanshan Horse?" ”

"That's right, this is a new breed of horses that combine Dunma and local horses in Yanzhou. However, it has only been twenty or thirty years, and it has been bred for two generations, but this kind of horse is very suitable for war horses, especially suitable for the terrain conditions in Yanzhou, so this kind of horse is only available in the barracks, how do you recognize it? Jiang Yang didn't expect Xinyue to know the breed of this horse.

"General, you always forget, my father and brother are also people who kill on the battlefield, but this Yanshan horse is Rong Xu's love. I've heard him say that this kind of horse is only a few thousand good horses in your camp, and other than that, it's just a mortal thing. As she spoke, Xinyue patted the Yanshan horse's neck and asked, "Does this horse have a name?" ”

"Ziyun" Jiang Yang also patted Ziyun's neck, but saw that between its neck, there were a few white cloud-like hairs, mixed with it, there was even a slight purple, and Xinyue smiled, "It's still so magical"

"Maybe that horse originally had the bloodline of Liang Guoma." Jiang Yang's words were a joke, and the Liang State had a famous horse named Zidian, who was the mount of the previous Emperor Liang, and was killed by King Yu. Legend has it that this purple lightning ran like purple lightning in the sky, fast and fast.

Jiang Yang thought that it would be cold, but he didn't expect Xinyue to smile heartily, and then said, "However, if this horse named Ziyun runs and is as slow as the clouds in the sky, it will be broken." ”

"You actually understand this joke" Jiang Yang felt that someone understood him, and he felt extremely happy in his heart, and reached out and patted Xinyue's shoulder, "Not bad, not bad." ”

Xinyue smiled, and at the same time looked at the high-spirited Ziyun, and couldn't help but be interested, "It's really a good horse, I wonder if you can ride it for me?" ”

"You're going to ride it? Are your ribs growing so long that you forget about the pain so quickly? Jiang Yang looked up and down at the crescent moon, this purple cloud. It's a little taller than Shangsanzhou, I don't know if she has small arms and legs, and she still can't control Ziyun.

"Just try it, but this is the general's horse, and it's not a good thing to think about, so please ask the general to protect me from the side."

Jiang Yang listened and nodded, "Whatever you want, then you can be careful." Saying that, Jiang Yang pulled the reins of Ziyun with one hand, and pressed Sanzhou's stumbling block, turned over and rode onto Sanzhou's body, Sanzhou took a few steps back, felt Jiang Yang's unquestionable power, and immediately became obedient.

Xinyue looked at Jiang Yang, who was a little childish at this time, he was riding his own horse, in fact, he was avenging himself and wanted to ride his horse. Xinyue smiled, but also learned what he looked like just now, first sat on Ziyun's body quickly and steadily, and then sank her body, controlling Ziyun with great strength, it was obvious that her strength was not as big as Jiang Yang, and Ziyun was indeed more powerful than Sanzhou, Ziyun pushed back a few steps, and quickly rushed forward three or four meters, and repeated this twice, Xinyue still sank the strength of her body, making Ziyun afraid of herself, slowly Ziyun was a little tired, and Xinyue's strength was also consumed very quickly, however, now is definitely not the time to give up, Otherwise, he would be left off the horse by Ziyun.

Jiang Yang grabbed the reins in front of him and looked at the crescent moon on horseback from time to time, so that he could hold her firmly before she fell. But what he didn't expect was that Xinyue snatched the reins from his hand, sank his strength, and rode Ziyun on the horse farm.

Jiang Yang was frightened into a cold sweat, he looked at the empty hands, and the new moon that had run out for almost a hundred meters, he didn't like this feeling of being unsure, so he drove the three boats under his crotch and chased in the direction of the new moon.

Xinyue has always felt that Sanzhou is a good horse, and it is, but compared to the purple cloud horse in front of him, it is really far worse. Especially in this temper, Ziyun's temper is too strong, in order to be able to throw off the new moon, it is really desperate to run in the horse farm, in addition to grabbing the reins of the horse, the new moon is to sink all the strength of the body, so as to give Ziyun a feeling of being controlled, but Ziyun has been on the battlefield, has seen a good horse in the world, it is really not a pleasure, a little girl can be tamed for a while, Xinyue lowered her arm, because she felt that the strength of her upper body had been used up, so when she was about to breathe a sigh of relief, Ziyun struggled even more. Xinyue suddenly felt a headache, she was not young, how could she do this kind of stunned thing as soon as she saw a good horse, there is an idiom called riding a tiger is difficult, Xinyue is now difficult to ride a horse, she looked at Jiang Yang with a look for help, Jiang Yang had also arrived at her side, a distance from her, after the new moon, she pulled the reins, so that Ziyun's speed was slower, Jiang Yang stretched out his arm, grabbed Ziyun's reins, and raised the horsewhip, on Ziyun's body, unhurriedly twitched twice. Although these two times didn't seem like anything, but for a very arrogant horse, it was a warning and humiliation, Ziyun first slowly slowed down, and then, as if unwilling, ran a few steps forward, heard Jiang Yang's shout, and never moved forward, stopping at Jiang Yang's side.

Jiang Yang rode three boats to catch up, he thought that he would be frightened by the crescent moon, but after he caught up, he saw that the crescent moon's face was red by the wind, with a big smile on the corner of his mouth, showing snow-white teeth, and his voice became louder, "It's really a good horse, it's really enjoyable to run." I'm going to ride one more lap and ask the general to accompany me? ”

"You'd better rest for a while, and it's not too late to wait for them to come." Jiang Yang couldn't get the new moon for a while, and he really couldn't bear to refuse her, so. I just want her to take a break for a while.

"They're coming, I'm afraid I won't be able to have so much fun, come" Before Jiang Yang could respond to her, she waved her whip and pulled the reins forward.

Jiang Yang's heart was about to jump out. He is a general who has fought in all directions, he has been in thousands of armies, back and forth several times, and he can slash the head of the opponent's general with a sword, but he has never been like this moment, all eyes are staring, a small, galloping person, she quickly turned around, passed by him, her arms were unstable, a little trembling, but she still sank her strength, and the foundation was very positive, as if she would not fall off the horse, but Jiang Yang was still relieved, and followed her and moved forward together.

Rong Ying forgot how long he hadn't heard this series of laughter, like a silver bell ringing, he rode on his black horse, looking at the blue figure, and Jiang Yang who was chasing after him.

He didn't seem to have heard Xinyue laugh like this, and he seemed to miss her from the moment he heard it, at this time, she was as bright as the winter sun above his head, warm, like a carbon fire in a cold night.

And Jiang Yang also smiled, this is a man like steel, his heart is as hard as iron, his body is as hard as steel, and at the same time, he is also an affectionate man. It's just that at this moment in front of the new moon, he is a man who is happy, attracted, and has begun to love others again.

Rong Ying didn't look away, and at this time he concluded that Jiang Yang was in love with his woman. This is something he absolutely, absolutely cannot allow.

Before Xinyue used all her strength again, she was finally caught by Jiang Yang, she breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately he caught up with her, otherwise, she would really fall headlong, Xinyue smiled at Jiang Yang, smiled as if relieved, and picked up her sore hand, "Thank you really General, if it weren't for you, I'm afraid I would have to break another rib." ”

Jiang Yang turned over and dismounted and stretched out his hand to Xinyue, who looked at him flipping up, with a calloused hand, a little hesitant, but still put his hand up, supported by him, and got off the horse.

Jiang Yang shook his head, "You, who are usually silent, how can you be so wild and untamable, this Ziyun, but the fierce horse that has recognized the master, you can ride it so far, you really have some ability, come, go to the side and rest." ”

"General, His Royal Highness King Jin has come down." Seeing Jiang Yang get off the horse, the Jiang family's little guy immediately stepped forward to report, and when Xinyue heard this, she looked in the direction where the little guy came just now, Rong Ying was really riding on her own horse, and she was looking at this side motionlessly.

"Please, I'll go to the pavilion in front to see King Jin." As he spoke, Jiang Yang pulled Ziyun's reins and asked Xinyue, "Let's go over together?" ”

"Okay" Crescent Moon nodded, also pulled the reins of the three boats, and the two walked side by side to the shed specially used for resting.

"It seems that you really have to think of a way to send King Jin away. You hate him so much, he can't guarantee that he won't be angry and force you to marry him. According to his status, this is not very difficult. ”

Xinyue also knew, and nodded, "I don't have any good way, and I don't have any interests for him to plot, he and I are just a momentary brain fever, I don't want to entrust my life to such a man." ”

"You are transparent," Jiang Yang praised, and asked again, "Do you need me to help you?" ”

"Otherwise, our marriage contract will be longer, if I am your fiancée, he will not dare to risk the world's big disbelief after all." Xinyue discussed with Jiang Yang.

Jiang Yang nodded, "At present, this is indeed the case, but now that he is a prince, he may be able to stop him, but he is the emperor..."

"If he is quite an emperor, he must marry a woman, and with that woman here, he will not be allowed to do this." Xinyue wished he had become emperor quickly.

"Lord Cheshire?" Jiang Yang is also a transparent person, although he is a military general, he also has a deep understanding of the affairs of the DPRK and China.

Xinyue nodded, Jiang Yang thought about it for a while, and then said to Xinyue, "She really doesn't like you very much." ”

Xinyue was helpless, "Then the pressure on you will be even greater, and you will be disliked by the future emperor and queen at the same time." ”

"Our Jiang family is all people who are not shocked." Saying that, Jiang Yang glanced at the new moon, and the new moon smiled between her eyebrows, as if she hadn't recovered from the fierce horse race just now, and the smile on the corner of her mouth was also very soothing, so that there was a warm breeze on her face, and spring was quietly coming.

Walking to the shed, Jiang Feng and Ya'er, and behind Xinyue and Jiang Yang, the four of them stayed in to greet Rong Ying.

Rong Ying frowned, looking at the crescent moon standing behind Jiang Yang, with his head down, his eyebrows were light, and the mist between his eyes was strong again, "Flat down"

"Why did the prince come here today, but what are your orders?" Jiang Yang stood up straight and asked.

"That day from the town of the north of the Hou Mansion to the banquet, I heard that there is a horse race here today, after the king returned to Beijing, there has been no good place to go, the king's horses, are in the stable are all dust, the king naturally wants to come to join in this fun."

"I see, it's just that today they are all the daughters of some ministers' families, and the daughters of the minister's cousin's family will also come over later. With the presence of female dependents, I am afraid that you will not be able to have a good time. Jiang Yang didn't welcome King Jin.

Rong Ying is so smart, he can naturally hear it, so he raised his eyebrows, "This king heard that the whole mountain behind is the place of your Jiang family, just now in the front yard, this king also saw some, locked in a cage, waiting for the hunting prey, why don't you give this place to the female dependents, this king, with General Jiang, and the female relatives who want to hunt, go hunting?" ”

Rong Ying bit the word female dependent very hard, but he could see that Xinyue wanted to hunt very much.

"This..."Jiang Yang glanced at Xinyue, and from the look between Xinyue's eyebrows, he also knew that she wanted to hunt.

"In this case, then please wait a while. Someone..."Jiang Yang summoned the servants and asked them to go to the back mountain, release the prey that had been prepared earlier, and drive it away again, so as to make the hunting more interesting.

"Then please warm up first, Xinyue, you go to the front to greet them, look at the time, they have already arrived."

Crescent Moon nodded, and turned over on the three boats.

The crescent moon sitting on the three boats is enough to make everyone's eyes shine, her snow-white neck and bright eyes are the focus of people's chasing, but she doesn't know it.

Feng'er caught up with Xinyue, and the two followed the way they came, and went to the door, Feng'er glanced back at King Jin and Jiang Yang, and turned back to Xinyue and said, "Girl, let's put on our hats." ”

Just now when she arrived at the racecourse, Xinyue took off her hat, and she didn't understand why she was asked to wear "Why?" ”

"King Jin, and General Jiang, just now all the eyes fell on you, girl." Feng'er said to Xinyue.

Xinyue smiled, "You said King Jin, I know, aren't you optimistic about his prey?" As for Jiang Yang, you see..."
