Chapter 024: The Little Black Slave and King Yan Become Upstairs and Downstairs Neighbors?
The Yuchuan Palace is located on the northwest border of the Great Wei Dynasty, backed by the Yuchuan Mountains and facing the Emerald Lake.
Mt. Tamagawa is towering into the clouds, the mountain range stretches for thousands of miles, the top of the mountain is covered with snow all the year round, the precious forests in the mountains are numerous, the scenery is pleasant, and there are all kinds of birds and animals.
And the Emerald Lake is the snow of the Yuchuan Mountain melted and accumulated into a wide lake, for the Emperor Taizu's Empress Yuan likes hibiscus, the Emerald Lake is full of pink hibiscus, in the middle of summer, thousands of flowers bloom, the fragrance floats for a hundred miles, so pleasant!
Coupled with the boundless grassland between the mountain and the lake, it was built as a garden by the royal family, and became the palace of the royal family of the Great Wei Dynasty in midsummer.
The brigade walked on the road for twenty years, and it was possible to reach the palace at the beginning of July.
The time was just right, and before the hottest dog days arrived, Emperor Wei and his entourage had safely arrived at a cool summer retreat.
Along the way, there was nothing to do, and the palace had already been cleaned and settled, and a group of masters and nobles lived in their respective palace courtyards to spend the hottest July and August of the year.
The trip to the palace is like this every year, and this year is not special, the only difference is that Wei Qianheng, the king of Yan, brought his female dependents with him for the first time this year.
The Qianqiu Terrace where Wei Qianheng lives is located in the highest section of the palace, the cool breeze is slow, the summer stars are brilliant, it is the best place to enjoy the cool summer in the Yuchuan Palace, it was originally the residence of Emperor Wei, but Emperor Wei knew that King Yan did not like to be noisy, and the Qianqiu platform was quiet and quiet, so he gave him a place to live.
In previous years, Wei Qianheng lived here alone, but this year there are two more female dependents, the Fuguang Pavilion in front was pulled out to the princess Ye Yuqing to live, Jiang Yuaner lived in the Tangshui Garden on the right, Wei Qianheng lived in Qingqiu Building as usual, and said that without his permission, the princess and his wife could not enter Qingqiu Building at will.
In order to avoid being discovered, Xiao Hei did not live in the subordinate room with other servants, but cleaned up a room next to the stable where the horses were kept in the Yan Wang's Mansion.
The carriage and horses were too tired, and Xiao Hei fell asleep as soon as he touched the pillow......
Early the next morning, before she woke up, the wooden door of the room was pushed open, and she opened her eyes to see that it was the white night beside Wei Qianheng.
She got up in a daze and looked at Bai Ye in front of her: "The white guard came early in the morning, what do you order?" ”
Bai Ye: "Have you forgotten the purpose of your visit?" I'll take you now to meet the horse you want to tame. ”
Of course, Xiao Hei didn't forget, but he ......
She looked out the window, and it was still gray outside, and the sky had not yet brightened.
Horse training so early?
In her heart, on her face, she didn't dare to say a word of rebuttal, scooped a scoop of cold water and poured it down, and walked out behind Bai Ye.
Bai Ye led her to Qingqiu Tower.
The morning of the autumn building is shrouded in a layer of mist, leaving a majestic shadow of the building, and the wind chimes hanging at the four corners of the eaves hit and whisper in the morning breeze, like the most crisp lark in the gentle cry.
Xiao Hei followed Bai Ye up the stairs, his feet on the misty jade steps, the corners of his eyes gently swept over those wooden wind chimes, and the black pupils seemed to be dyed with mist, cold and hazy.
Bai Ye led her around the Qingqiu Building and came to the back of the pavilion.
I saw that there was a separate stable built next to Qingqiu Building.
Obviously there is a stable, but Wei Qianheng built another stable downstairs in his residence, what kind of precious BMW can live with him and return the treasure with his mount Wuchi?
As she walked over, the BMW in the stable heard footsteps and stuck out his head to neigh at her.
It turned out to be a snow-white jade lion horse!
Xiao Hei was stunned, his steps were sluggish, and he didn't dare to move forward.
"What, scared?"
The cool voice wrapped in the coolness of the morning mist blew into her ears, making her whole body numb.
She looked sideways, and on the jade steps, Wei Qianheng stepped down step by step in a silver-white embroidered dragon pattern silver robe, her deep eyes fell on her flustered face, and the corners of her mouth hooked up a touch of irony, which was even more threatening.
"The king has commanded you to tame it well, but not to hurt it in the slightest. Otherwise, this king will let you die and return to Bianjing! ”
The jade lion is the best among horses, just like the king of horses, not only untamable, but also stubborn to recognize the master, is the most difficult to serve the BMW!
Wei Xingheng cherished this horse very much, just from the fact that he set up a separate stable for it, it could be seen, and now she has clearly ordered her not to hurt it in the slightest when taming it, it is simply difficult to reach the sky!
Xiao Hei seemed to be frightened, and he couldn't come back to his senses for a long time.
It wasn't until Wei Qianheng walked up to her that the cold aura on her body was too close, which scared her awake.
She hurriedly knelt down and muttered, "Your Highness, the little one has never tamed such a BMW...... It's ......."
"If you can tame it, this king will be rewarded!"
Wei Qianheng stood five steps away from the stable and looked at the jade lion inside, his expression was hidden in the fog, and his voice was a little erratic.
Xiao Hei looked down at the mottled ground in front of him, and his heart was entangled.
The place in her heart seemed to be burning hot, and it was very uncomfortable, and she had to refuse without thinking about it.
But she is a horse slave, and her duty is to help her master tame all kinds of untamable horses, how can she say 'no'?
She kowtowed to him and said in a deep voice, "The little one must go all out!" "Whether it can be tamed or not, she can't guarantee.
Wei Qianheng ignored the ambiguity in her words, and pointed to a wing room opposite the stable and said to him: "In this way, you will move here to live, and during your time in the palace, it will be left to you to take care of it - finding out its temperament may help you to train your horse." ”
Xiao Hei silently looked at the distance between the wing room and Qingqiu Tower, then turned his head to look at the jade lion in the stable, hesitated for a moment, and bowed his head in response.
After Wei Qianheng left, Xiao Hei opened the door of the wing room and saw that it was much better than the stable where horse materials were stacked, the windows were bright, and there were wooden beds, tables and chairs, which was better than the small earthen house where she lived in the palace.
Xiao Hei returned to the stable to carry her luggage, but she didn't expect that the maid from Qingqiu Building brought her breakfast.
The little maid told her that they would bring her three meals in the future, and asked her what she needed.
Xiao Hei didn't expect that he could get such a good treatment by taking care of the jade lion, so he couldn't help scratching his head and unceremoniously asked the little maid for a bath bucket.
Winter is fine, hot days, she is most afraid of sharing a bath room with a group of male servants in the palace.
The little maid nodded in response, but after a while, two little maids brought her a yellow wooden bath bucket, and by the way, took back the dishes she had eaten.
After breakfast, Xiao Hei came to the stable again, added grass and water to the manger, and then silently looked at the tall and mighty, unusually beautiful jade lion in front of him.
The jade lion also looked at her.
After a long confrontation between one man and one horse, Xiao Hei turned his head and turned back, and the jade lion snorted at her behind her.
Xiao Hei ignored it and went back to the house to catch up on sleep.
In the bedroom of Qingqiu Building, Wei Qianheng accompanied Emperor Wei back from dinner and was slightly drunk.
He stood in front of the window blowing the night breeze, and Bai Ye stepped forward to say: "Your Highness, the princess and Mrs. Jiang have sent a sobering soup, and they are waiting outside at this moment." ”
After coming to the palace for three days, even if the three of them lived in a Qianqiu platform, Bai Yuqing and Jiang Yuan'er were like in the palace, and they still couldn't see Wei Qianheng.
"Let them all step down, this king doesn't want to see anyone!"
Wei Qianheng looked at the stable at the back of the downstairs, twisted his eyebrows and asked Bai Ye: "It's been three days, how is the progress of that little black slave horse taming?" ”
Bai Ye's face snorted, and he snorted: "He...... He didn't do anything, he slept in the house all day, and he didn't take the jade lion out of the stable except to feed it...... His subordinates felt that he had not done his duty! ”
Wei Qianheng's eyes were slightly gloomy, and he said coldly: "Let him go first." It's going to be the horse races, and that's all that matters right now. ”
