Chapter 28: Horseback riding
The scenery along the way made Shi Qingqian a little dazzled, he had seen the appearance of the palace on TV before, although it was magnificent and atmospheric, but in the end it was repaired by modern people, and the feeling of grandeur has faded with the passage of time.
After walking for a long time, Shi Qingqian followed Zuo Shinian and just stepped into a delicate courtyard, and the sound of laughter and slapstick inside came into her ears.
"Why did you come at this time?" The fifth princess came with a slightly complaining voice.
As if annoyed by these people, the fifth princess drove away those young ladies who were about the same age, ran over in three or two steps and took Shi Qingqian's hand, and didn't forget to look behind her, and saw that the back was empty, and before she had time to lose, she was blocked by Zuo Shinian.
"Don't look at it, no one." Zuo Shinian raised her eyebrows, looking like she was watching a play.
The fifth princess gave her a roll of the eyes when she heard this, looked at Shi Qingqian and said, "We are playing with the pitcher, let's come over together." ”
Seeing this, Zuo Shinian on the side hurriedly stopped: "I said that Qing Qian came to the racecourse together, what is the point of playing with these people who can miss nine times out of ten votes." ”
The fifth princess glared when she heard this, and the two of them were at a stalemate, and in the end they could only seek Shi Qingqian's opinion.
Shi Qingqian really wanted to go to the racecourse, and she had never seen anyone fencing and playing polo there.
When he arrived at the horse farm, Shi Qingqian saw Shi Ke who had changed into a riding clothes from a distance, and the fifth princess on the side naturally saw it, and their eyes lit up instantly.
"Brother." Shi Qingqian ran to Shi Ke first, raising a small face with a smile.
Shi Ke saw the corners of Shi Qing's mouth open, reached out and hugged her, and saw the fifth princess and Zuo Shinian who came over.
"Miss Zuo, the fifth princess."
The fifth princess answered with a red face, and Zuo Shinian also wanted to play polo, so she ignored the protests of the fifth princess and dragged her to change into riding and shooting clothes.
"Brother, are you going to play polo?" Shi Qingqian looked at the dark horse beside Shi Ke and couldn't help but be a little excited.
Shi Ke guessed Shi Qingqian's careful thoughts, and reached out to hook her nose: "Don't think about it, you're still too young to get on a horse." ”
When Shi Qingqian heard this, he couldn't help but wrinkle his nose, and just as he was about to open his mouth to protest, he turned his head and saw his father and other eye-catching people walking in from the entrance of the racecourse, who should be his father's colleagues.
"Daddy." Shi Qingqian hugged his father's leg aggrievedly: "You also want to play polo." ”
"Father." Shi Ke followed Shi Qingqian and walked over.
Shi Yuan looked at Shi Ke and nodded, looked at Shi Qing's wrinkled little face, and laughed a few times: "Qi'er is still too young, sitting on horseback, even if he takes that pole, he can't reach the ground, how can he play?" ”
"This is the seven girls you always talk about." The bearded man smiled and spoke, but he was very kind.
Shi Qingqian was held in Shi Yuan's arms: "It's called Uncle Liao." ”
Shi Qingqian was rejected one after another, and he felt uncomfortable, but the basic etiquette was still in place, and he looked at his father's colleague and called sweetly: "Uncle Liao is good." ”
Liao An nodded, looked at Shi Qingqian and praised: "What a clever and lovely girl, no wonder she was selected by Prime Minister Li." ”
Listening to his daughter being praised by friends, Shi Yuan's eyes almost narrowed into a slit.
"Daddy, I want to ride a horse." Shi Qingqian was carried into the bamboo pavilion by Shi Yuan and sat down, this is a special place for watching and resting, but no matter how Shi Yuan coaxes Shi Qingqian with those delicious snacks, Shi Qingqian's heart is still on the vast horse farm, and he can't take it back.
Shi Qingqian grabbed Shi Yuan's sleeve and said something wrong, if he had put other things, Shi Yuan would have gotten down a long time ago, but today Shi Qingqian wanted to ride that horse, Hou Ye felt sorry for his precious daughter, where did he dare to let her do such a dangerous thing.
"If the talented girl thinks about it very much, I have a way." A familiar voice came from outside the house, and Shi Qingqian's eyes couldn't help but light up.
"General He." Shi Qingqian looked at He Yan standing at the door of the bamboo pavilion in surprise.
He Yan saluted Hou Ye: "Brother-in-law." ”
Shi Yuan nodded and let He Yan in.
"A few days ago, there were a few foals in the palace, and they were put on the horse farm for a small training, and the big horses were more dangerous, but the foals were easy to control and mild, so they could let the little talented girl give it a try."
When Shi Yuan heard this, a trace of hesitation flashed on his face, but he couldn't withstand the power of Shi Qingqian's aggrieved and expectant little eyes, so he could only respond.
Seeing his baby daughter Zhang Zhang's hand and letting He Yan take her away, Shi Yuan felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, and when he came back to his senses, he felt funny.
Under the guidance of He Yan, Shi Qingqian only worked for a while, and basically no one needed to take care of him.
"Am I amazing." Shi Qingqian stopped beside He Yan on his foal, with a look of praise on his face.
He Yan nodded very face-savingly: "Sure enough, she is worthy of being a talented girl." ”
"Of course." Shi Qingqian had a little bit of the meaning of climbing up the pole, and the look between his eyebrows was a little more.
The two men were saying this when a voice interjected.
"You're here, I'm going to find it." The fifth princess, who was forced by Zuo Shinian to change into a riding shooting suit, ran over, looked at the foal that Shi Qingqian was riding, and held back a smile on the corner of her mouth.
Shi Qingqian looked at the other party's appearance of wanting to laugh but trying to endure it, and couldn't help but flatten his mouth: "Don't laugh at me." ”
The fifth princess looked at Shi Qingqian with the corners of her mouth tensed, coughed and suppressed her smile, turned her head to see He Yan, who she hadn't noticed just now, and a trace of doubt flashed in her eyes.
Although He Yan is famous, he rarely returns to Beijing, so few people know his appearance, even those who pursue him and the women who admire him.
"This is my little uncle, General He." Shi Qingqian subconsciously straightened his waist when he introduced He Yan, and when he said He Yan's name, he only felt that he had more face.
"You are the little general He?" The fifth princess looked at He Yan with wide eyes, her face full of suspicion, and she seemed to be extremely suspicious of the other party's identity.
Her reaction, Shi Qingqian fully understood.
"What about Shi Nian?" Shi Qingqian was a little unaccustomed to calling out Zuo Shinian's name, because Zuo Shinian felt that the two of them had been supporting her sister, and her sister's call was a little raw, so she said that Shi Qingqian changed her name.
The fifth princess shrugged her shoulders and pointed to the horse farm where cheers came from time to time: "It's already in the horse farm, and I've formed a team with your brother Shi Ke." ”
When Shi Qingqian heard this, his heart became interested, and he wanted to go over and take a look, the two of them were together, and it was not good to let He Yan follow him.
