Chapter 459: Horse Farm Gossip

The next few days are also the parties of each family, the patterns are almost the same, eating and drinking, listening to music and watching plays, a few times to go to the suburbs for a field trip, but also just go to each family in the suburbs to see, nothing new. The Ruian Mansion and the Lu family also have other courtyards in the suburbs of Ning'an County, and I have seen enough of it a long time ago, so I have always been lacking in interest, just following the crowd.

It's just that when I'm playing games with those young ladies, I rarely get a little interested, and I win a few games.

"The county lord is worthy of being a heroine who has been on the battlefield, games like this pitcher, I think the county lord disdains to compete with a daughter like us, every game must be won, and the county lord doesn't think it's interesting, right?" Qingluan said in a flat tone.

But the provocation in her words was very obvious, and several people around her smiled faintly, after all, they had been with Qingluan for a longer time, and their hearts were still more towards Qingluan. They all feel that since I have been reconciled and divorced, I should no longer dominate King Ryan, he should start a relationship again, and then marry a princess who is more worthy of him, in their hearts, Qingluan is the most suitable person.

I threw another arrow and said nonchalantly, "What's the point of not playing this?" Archery on horseback? Kill the enemy? Your Majesty has decreed that I will not be allowed to go to war. ”

Speaking of this, I suddenly stopped and said, "On the way to the capital, I took a carriage and a boat, and I haven't ridden a horse for a long time, my lord, do you have a horse in your house?" ”

"Will there be no horses in King Ryan's house? Are you scolding the prince? Zhao Changle said with a smile.

I smiled at Zhao Changle, turned to King Ryan and said, "Is there anyone else who wants to treat me tomorrow?" If not, let's go horseback riding, and if there is I don't want to go, I just want to ride. ”

"There are only two fierce horses in the stable, and you can't ride them." King Ryan paused, called Wang Xi, and said, "Go buy a docile horse." ”

"Wait a minute, go to Cai'er and get the money, buy two good horses, and put them in my new house." I said in passing.

Wang Xi went, and King Ruian smiled and said, "You don't like the horses of my Ruian Palace?" ”

"No, it's just that you don't even want to give me a good horse to ride, and you think you're stingy."

King Ryan raised an eyebrow at me and asked, "Do you think you can ride a fiery horse?" ”

It's inconvenient to say that I have been seriously injured in Zezhou, although I have been recuperated, but in the end, I have injured my vitality, and I have to take care of it well, I am already weak, and I need to pay more attention, so it is normal for King Ryan not to let me ride a fierce horse.

When Ryan Wang explained the precautions for taking care of me to Cai'er, Cai'er once complained that my body is indeed much weaker than before, but compared with those delicate ladies who have been raised in the boudoir from below, it is still much stronger, where is it so serious as Ryan Wang said? But this remark was strongly rebuked by King Ryan, and Cai'er didn't dare to say it anymore.

Early the next morning, Cai'er came to call me, saying that the horses were ready, and the sons and ladies of each family had also set off one after another, and asked me to pack up quickly and not be left behind.

I knew I was going to ride a horse today, but I didn't hear of anyone else going. So I asked what was going on.

Cai'er smiled: "You said yesterday that you wanted to ride a horse in front of so many people, but those people heard it, how could King Ryan only take you and not let them go too?" If you don't want to drink with so many people, you should tell the prince in private, and the prince can find an excuse to push them away. ”

Then I remembered that I had indeed made a mistake, so I washed my hands and feet neatly, then ate, changed into riding clothes, and then went out. It's just that the capital doesn't let the horses, I'm the county lord and it's not good to show up, so I can only take the carriage and slowly rush to the horse farm, fortunately, I didn't come too late, not too rude, everyone has no complaints about me, but a few people thank me for offering to ride a horse, they can borrow the light to relax, otherwise bored in the yard all day, it's really not interesting.

It's a pity that in gatherings like theirs, there are mostly literati and scholars who like to recite poems and poems, and there are very few children of military generals who like to hunt on horseback, and my proposal has only been sought after by a few people.

As soon as the person's words just now fell, a boy dressed as a scholar said: "The county lord's proposal is in line with your wishes, but it is just a pain for us who can only study weak people, wait a while, you are not allowed to make fun of me!" ”

It turns out that they can ride horses, and it seems that I am overthinking.

"Your family has specially found someone to teach riding and archery, what kind of weakness is pretending? I have never been ambiguous in the imperial examination, and the assessment of the six arts, if you can't ride and shoot, it seems that there is no name for this Jinshi and Dili! Someone laughed.

I didn't have time to listen to their nonsense, and when I saw that no one was talking to me, I went to the stable to see the horses first, Wang Xi led three horses over, and said: "This horse was bought by the prince yesterday when the prince asked the slave, and it has a docile temperament, and it is the most suitable for the county lord to walk the horse." These two are good horses that Cai'er girl explained and the slaves bought on their behalf, and their temperament is not so strong, but if the county lord wants to compete with others, he can also cope with the past. No matter how fierce the horse slave is, he doesn't dare to buy it for the county lord, and the prince doesn't allow it. ”

"It's almost enough, I don't need it to do anything, just take the horse back from your palace, I'll just ride this one."

I picked one from the other two good horses, and took them away very casually, Wang Xi followed behind and explained: "The prince said, this horse is also for you, the county lord should accept it!" This is a piece of the prince's heart! ”

I had already ridden my horse and run a long way, and when I heard Wang Xi's words, I could only say loudly: "Then give Cai'er!" She rides just right! ”

But how dare Cai'er ride the horse that King Ryan gave me? So I had to take the horse aside and tie it up, thinking that when I went back, I would take it with us.

Everyone was still talking, and they saw that I had already ridden a horse and ran along the track opened up by the racecourse for most of the lap, Zhao Changfeng said: "We are actually lagging behind, everyone talk slowly, I have to catch up with the county lord first." ”

By the time everyone was running away from the runway, I had had enough of this restrained way of running, and instead walked out of the runway and ran towards the open area.

King Ryan was afraid that I was in danger, so he wanted to chase me and keep me safe.

Zhao Changfeng stopped him just right, and the two of them followed unhurriedly in my direction, taking advantage of the fact that there was no one around, Zhao Changfeng said: "I just got the news, the missions of various countries are already near the capital, and they will enter Beijing in a few days." I heard that they came to envoy this time, in addition to marrying the princess and beauty of their own country, they also had to ask Qi Guo to marry. Like Liang and Yan, it is natural to ask to marry a princess, but there are also some royal relatives who have not yet married a wife, and I heard that they also want to marry a woman from my Qi country, they can't meet the specifications of a princess, and it is reasonable to ask to marry a county lord or a woman from a family. I also heard that someone has taken a fancy to the county lord of An Ying, and this time she is the one who came to ask for her. ”
