437 Reliable (One Shift)

"......" Duanmu Fei even had the urge to flip the table for a moment, and pouted. She and her sister just arrived, didn't they even finish their lunch in peace?!

Knowing that the granddaughter Ruduanmu Xian naturally saw that the four girls in her family were not happy, and quickly explained the reason: "This morning's longevity banquet, Prince Giles mentioned it to the emperor, saying that there were Hun horses in Duanmu's horse farm, and the emperor heard it and became interested, and said on the spot that he wanted to go to Qixia Horse Farm to have a look. ”

Gilles deliberately picked all the civil and military officials when they were all there, and said that Duanmu Xian also knew what he was thinking, and no matter how angry he was, he could only suppress it first.

Duanmujun frowned, she had heard her grandfather say last time that Prince Giles, the father of the Lord of Roland, wanted to buy the horses of their horse farm, but her grandfather refused, she didn't expect the other party to be so despicable. There is really a father and a daughter, and he dares to fight the idea of his sister's dowry!

Duanmuxian thought that Qixia Racecourse was the dowry of the four granddaughters, and it was the property of the long house, so he thought that he still had to ask the two sisters.

Originally, Duanmu Heng could have been allowed to run this trip, but Duanmu Heng was about to fall in autumn and had to concentrate on studying, so Duanmu Xian simply came by himself.

The emperor wanted to come to the racecourse, and their Duanmu family, as the main family, was not easy not to entertain, and after the sisters packed up their things a little, they got into Duanmuxian's black-lacquered flat-topped carriage and left Zhuangzi to rush to Qixia Racecourse.

The carriage was moving smoothly and rapidly, with an ice basin in the carriage and just the right temperature.

Since Duanmujun took over the internal affairs of the house, Duanmuxian has been very relieved of her, including Duanmufei's dowry, which is fully handed over to Duanmujun to take care of.

This time, if it weren't for the Qixia Racecourse that alarmed the emperor, Duanmuxian wouldn't even think to ask.

"Grandfather," Duanmu Jun thought for a moment and took the initiative to mention her plan to Duanmu Xian, "Actually, I plan to breed new horse breeds at the horse farm, so I specially collected some horses. ”

Duanmuxian was stunned, a little surprised, and then suddenly realized, yes, no wonder there are rare horses like Hun horses in the horse farm.

"Sister Jun, in addition to the Hun horses in the horse farm, what other horses are there?" Duanmuxian asked Duanmujun directly.

He doesn't know Duanmu Fei anymore, his four granddaughters are the most lazy, except for what she is interested in, everything doesn't matter, and the matter of the horse farm still has to ask Duanmufei.

Duanmujun replied truthfully one by one: "The main horses in the horse farm are the original Northeast horses, and later I collected Hexi horses, Persian horses, and Ili horses, and not long ago the lord of Roland County also lost twenty northwest horses to me. ”

Duanmu Fei ate a snack on the side, and gave Duanmu Xian a triumphant look, meaning, grandfather, sister can do it!

Duanmu Xian was so complacent that he almost didn't laugh out loud by the little girl's complacent appearance, and then he came back to his senses, and said in his heart, he was almost led astray by this girl.

After Duanmuxian thought about it, he told Duanmu Jun: "Sister Jun, when the emperor goes to the horse farm, you don't need to mention the matter of cultivating horse breeds. "Lest nothing happens.

Duanmujun didn't plan to mention it, so he responded without saying a word.

Then, she turned her head to look at Duanmu Fei beside her, raised her hand and rubbed the top of her soft hair, and said comfortingly: "Zhen Zhen, don't worry, even the emperor can't rob you of your dowry." ”

Duanmufei's cheeks were stuffed with dim sum, like a little white rabbit, and she nodded with a smile.

"......" Duanmu Xian's expression was a little subtle when he heard this, he cleared his throat and comforted Duanmu Xian, "Sister Jun, don't think too much, the emperor should just be curious." ”

Duanmuxian said this, but in fact, he was still a little worried in his heart, even if the emperor would not "buy" the horse of the four girls, he couldn't guarantee what damage the Prince of Gilles would do. I'll have to watch it later.

After this stubble, I have to settle this account with that Prince Gilles, is it really easy for their Duanmu family to bully?!

Thinking about it, Duanmu Xian narrowed his eyes, and the corners of his mouth tightened into a straight line.

Duanmufei looked at his grandfather and sister and was not very happy, and thoughtfully poured tea for them respectively, so that they could dissipate their anger, and Duanmuxian and Duanmujun were moved to a mess, and exchanged a look with each other, feeling that the four girls (sister) were really the most intimate!

You must not let others touch the dowry of the four girls (sister)! The grandfather and grandson thought to themselves.

Their carriage continued to drive all the way to the northeast along the official road, and after more than half an hour, they arrived at Qixia Racecourse, which was already the beginning of Shen.

Duanmuxian had already sent someone to Qixia Racecourse to inform the emperor of coming, so Steward Wu and Deputy Steward were waiting at the entrance of the racecourse, and they were sincerely afraid.

Seeing that Duanmu Xian, Duanmu Jun and Duanmu Fei's ancestors and grandsons had arrived, Steward Wu secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart and had a backbone.

After Steward Wu saluted the three of them, he said to Duanmu: "Big girl, the little one has already ordered the people under him to clean the horse farm, and it is tidied up." ”

Duanmu Jun soothed: "Steward Wu, it's okay, the emperor just came to see the Hun horses, and there is no need to say anything else." ”

Steward Wu only agreed and understood Duanmujun's hint.

"Grandfather, sister, let's go see the foal." Duanmufei kept smiling, holding Duanmu's hand, "I haven't seen the foal for half a month, it must have grown a lot." ”

"Steward Wu, where is the foal now?"

"Old lady, eldest girl, fourth girl, please here." Steward Wu led the way for them.

Duanmu Fei walked away, and at the same time showed off to Duanmu Xian how cute the little pony was, and then regretted that he was in a hurry this time and couldn't bring Feipian with him.

Today, the foal and mare are not in the stable, but in a separate pen fenced off to the northwest of the racecourse, separated from the rest of the herd, and the foal runs happily like a fawn on the grass in the stable, and it grows taller and more neatly.

The little one apparently did not remember the sisters at all, and as soon as he saw the stranger coming, he immediately hid timidly behind the mare, but the brown Hun horse still remembered Duanmujun and ran to beg for candy.

Seeing that these horses are trying their best to flatter each other for sugar, Duanmu Fei feels very kind. She took out a pine nut candy and fed it to the brown horse, and muttered with a smile: "Next time I'll bring Feipian and Dark Night to play with you, okay?" You're going to get along...... "Well, it doesn't seem like it's easy to say, maybe the three of them are fighting for sugar."

Seeing that the brown horse was playing intimately with the sisters, the foal walked a little curiously towards this side, but his whole body tensed, as if he would run away like a frightened fawn the next moment.

"It's so cute." Duanmufei's eyes sparkled when she looked at the foal, and Duanmujun on the side felt a sense of accomplishment, which was probably the most popular dowry she prepared for her sister.

As soon as the sisters talked about the horses, they were reluctant to go, and it seemed that before they had stayed for a while, the deputy steward came in a hurry, saying that the holy car was about to arrive at the racecourse.

The sisters reluctantly withdrew their gaze and accompanied Duanmu Xian to pick up the car.

From afar, I saw dozens of people, including the accompanying Jinyi Wei, crowding the emperor and galloping towards this side, the emperor was naturally in micro clothes, and all the princes and ministers accompanying him today also changed into civilian clothes.

The emperor and the others came with the sun on their backs, their faces were actually a little dim and blurry, but Duanmu Jun saw a figure in an indigo robe in the crowd at a glance, even if she couldn't see the other party's face clearly, she could recognize him from the posture of his horse, from the temperament of his body that Taishan collapsed in front and his face did not change.

Cen Yin also came.

The corners of Duanmujun's lips curled up slightly, with Cen Yin, his sister's dowry must have been preserved.

When this thought came to mind, Duanmu Jun was stunned, and his eyelashes trembled slightly. Since when, in her mind, Cen Yin is more reliable than her own grandfather?!

Duanmujun's eyes were a little dazed for a while.

"Da Da Da ......"

The sound of the emperor's horse's hooves approached, and hundreds of horses' hooves stepped on the ground, splashing a cloud of dust and mist.

The emperor, who was riding at the front, took the lead in pulling the horse rope and stopped at the entrance of the horse farm, and the others behind also stopped their horses.

Duanmu Fei quickly glanced at the crowd and found many familiar faces, in addition to Cen Yin and Prince Gilles, Prince Li, Prince Bao, Wei Yongxin, Shangshu You Junji and Prince Mokomo also came.

"Your Majesty." Duanmuxian hurriedly took his two granddaughters to greet the emperor, and he didn't bother to look at Gilles.

Duanmu Fei looked respectful on the surface, but he took advantage of the act of saluting to quietly greet Cen Yin behind the emperor, and showed a good smile.

Cen Yin smiled at Duanmu Fei and Duanmu Jun, and then neatly turned over and dismounted, and the cloak behind him flew away, like a big peng spreading its wings, heroic and full of indescribable elegance.

Today is the Birthday Day, the emperor is in a good mood, he also drank some wine at the birthday banquet, and his body still exudes a little wine, and when the wind blows, the faint smell of wine wafts with the wind.

The emperor looked around the horse farm, then turned over and dismounted, and praised: "Duanmu Aiqing, your horse farm is good, surrounded by mountains and rivers, the environment is quiet, and it is suitable for raising horses." ”

"The emperor has won the award."

Duanmuxian said modestly, but Duanmufei on his right hand didn't know modesty, and said complacently: "Thank you for the emperor's compliment." This is what my sister bought for me, and it was a dowry for me. ”

The emperor opened the folding fan casually, slowly shook the folding fan, and playfully teased Duanmu Fei: "Your little girl's family is not ashamed to talk about the dowry. ”

In addition to Han Xing, the emperor rarely heard the girl's family put the dowry on his lips with confidence, and hooked his lips a little funny, thinking that this girl was still so interesting. It's no wonder that it gets along with his own Hanxing. The emperor couldn't help but sigh with emotion again.

Duanmu crooked her delicate and cute little face, innocent, and said confidently: "This is the marriage given by the emperor." "It means that the emperor dares to give marriage, why can't she raise the dowry openly!

The emperor was amused by her, and casually coaxed the girl: "Little girl of the Duanmu family, what you said is true." This is my marriage, and of course this dowry cannot be shabby. Saying that, he also deliberately warned Duanmu Xian, "Duanmu Aiqing, don't be too stingy." ”

Duanmuxian also knew that the emperor was joking, so he responded with a smile. Besides, of course, the dowry of the four girls in his family can't be thin.

"Your Majesty, please, I'll show you everywhere." Duanmu smiled and stretched out his hand to make an invitation, and the group surrounded the emperor and entered the racecourse. Duanmu Fei skillfully made her sister Duanmu stand out from everyone and didn't let the emperor notice her.

Gilles, who was in the rear, looked at Duanmu Fei, a girl who was so familiar with the emperor, her eyes flashed slightly, and her face was silent.

After the emperor entered the horse farm, he casually looked at the horses grazing or running in the fence along a huge horse pen, looked leisurely, praised "Shang Ke", and then talked about the purpose of his trip: "Little girl, I heard that there are Hun horses in your horse farm?" ”

Who did the emperor listen to, everyone present knew very well, and the corners of Duanmu Xian's eyes jumped.

"Your Majesty, there are three pairs of Hun horses in my horse farm," Duanmufei said with a seemingly "number of treasures", "they were all bought at a high price from a horse dealer." ”

Duanmu blinked wide-eyed, and quickly made up a story in his head, telling the emperor the story of her discerning horse.

said that three months ago, she went out of Beijing to play, and it happened that a horse dealer missed the horse market and sold horses on the spot. Because of curiosity, she ran to see the excitement, when the group of horses came thousands of miles, the journey was tiring, one by one looked at the shape of the bones, the appearance was not eye-catching, no one took a fancy to it, thought it was a sick horse.

Fortunately, she had a good eye, and with some characteristics of those horses, she immediately recognized that several of them were Hun horses, bargained with the horses, and bought three pairs.

At that time, the six horses were so thin that they had ribs, and two of them were sick due to water and soil adaptation, so she ordered Steward Wu to hire a veterinarian, and took care of them carefully, and they gradually became stronger after more than three months.

Duanmu Fei talked about the story, it was a subdued tone, and the witty words were like beads, and several older elders couldn't help but laugh a little, and felt that the little girl's "I just have a good eye" little appearance was very cute.

The emperor also listened attentively, and said with a smile: "Girl, will you still be a horse?" ”

"I can also raise horses." Duanmu boasted cheekily, "My family Feipian was brought up little by little by me when it was a foal. In order to raise it well, I read a lot of horse scriptures. ”

"In this way, the horse merchant is really lucky to meet you." The emperor teased her again.

"Your Majesty, I also see that he is from the north, so I can help if I can." Duanmu Fei said seriously.

The emperor moved his eyebrows, the Huns used to be a nomadic people wandering in the northwest and north, with the westward migration of the Huns, those remaining Hun horses are also in groups in the northwest and north grasslands, Xu is this horse dealer accidentally caught a few, and took it to the capital to sell, who knows that missed the horse market once every three months, but let this little girl pick up cheap.

Of course, other people in the rear also heard the words of Duanmu Fei and the emperor, including Cen Yin.

No one knows better than Cen Yin where these Hun horses came from, seeing this little girl talking nonsense seriously, Cen Yin couldn't help but laugh when she heard it, and put her right hand into a fist to her lips, covering the corners of her lips.

When he put down his right hand, his eyes inadvertently met a pair of bright willow eyes, Duanmu Jun obviously knew what Cen Yin was laughing at, and he also hooked his lips.

My own sister is just naughty.

Your sister, that's funny.

The two exchanged a tacit look at each other.

Duanmufei's crisp and clear voice came from the front again: "Your Majesty, do you want to see the Hun horse?" They're all locked up in the stables in front of me, and I'll show you there. ”

The crowd gathered around the Emperor and headed for the row of stables to the northeast.

The stables of the racecourse were all rebuilt after Duanmu took over, and the wood was very new and tidy at a glance.

Steward Wu had the six Hun horses driven to the stables here, and the two horses were locked up in one room and were in good order. As if they hadn't seen the emperor and the others at all, these Hun horses bowed their heads and ate hay.

"Click, click......"

All that remained around the stables was the faint sound of horses munching on hay.

When the emperor saw these Hun horses at first glance, he was actually a little disappointed in his heart, and wanted to compare the famous horses such as sweat and blood horses, Ili horses, and Persian horses with outstanding appearances, this Hun horse was really not good-looking, not only short in size, but also with a large head and short neck, thick skin and thick hair.

It's no wonder that no one had seen these Hun horses before, and they were picked up by this girl. The emperor said secretly in his heart, casually raised his hand and pointed to one of the red horses and said, "Take this horse out for me to see." ”
