Chapter 37: Intentionally
The entrance of the post house.
In addition to the accompanying convoy, there was also a maroon horse, with pure coat and beautiful body. It's just that he is more than ten centimeters shorter than the Maxima that Ye Shaoqing sat on.
"Can this horse keep up with this short leg? You're not going to cheat me, are you? Lin Qingci beat a drum in his heart.
Ye Shaoqing said coldly: "If you can keep up, if you dislike it, then take the carriage." ”
Lin Qingci: "......" This person doesn't even have room for negotiation.
"I don't dislike it, I just think it's weird."
Lin Qingci chattered, was helped onto the horse by Ye Shaoqing, explained the precautions with her, and finally advised: "You must hold on to the reins, and you can't let go at any time, you know?" ”
Lin Qingci nodded.
The group went on the road, Lin Qingci's riding skills were not bad, and he kept following the carriage, Ning Xiang and Alan looked at her at the window, their eyes were full of worship, Miss was too smart, and it was really a little bit clear.
Ning Xiang suddenly frowned: "Miss, why does the slave maid think that your horse runs differently from the eldest prince's, you better get into the carriage, the slave maid is really afraid that this horse will turn you down." ”
The wind is in my ears.
Lin Qingci didn't really hear it, but he still understood the meaning of Ning Xiang.
After a long period of observation, I found that the other horses' horses were running with two hooves side by side, while her horses, with their four legs staggered, were running in a very funny rhythm. She now somewhat understood the meaning of Ye Shaoqing's four-hoofed horse.
Silently looked down at the jujube red horse with small short legs under the crotch and shadowless hooves, this ...... If it runs so fast, will it trip over its own hooves?
Damn Ye Shaoqing, no wonder I agreed to her riding a horse!
It turned out to be a joke to see her.
She flicked her horsewhip and prepared to catch up with Ye Shaoqing to settle accounts.
The whip struck the horse, and it raised its head and barked, and at once it overtook the carriage driven by the coachman.
Lin Qingci was frightened, and clutched the reins in his hand tightly.
She didn't have time to speak when she got to Ye Shaoqing's side, and the horse wind drifted past him.
Rough!
This calf is shorter than Maxima.
Ning Xiang and Alain shouted from behind: "Eldest son, Miss's horse is out of control......"
Ye Shaoqing was calm and relaxed, letting Lin Qingci gradually move away from his sight, and there was even a smile on the corner of his mouth.
Ning Xiang and Alain were so anxious that they wanted to jump out of the car, and there were two horsemen sitting side by side in the carriage, one of whom turned his head: "The two girls are calm and don't be impatient, the son will not let the lady leave it alone." ”
"But ......"
"The two girls still sit back, in case they fall off the carriage, it is not easy for the little ones to explain to their mothers."
Ning Xiang and Alan glanced at each other, shrunk behind the curtain to pay attention to Lin Qingci's movements.
Lin Qing's words were a good toss, but the horse didn't listen to her instructions at all, she could only gallop along the official road.
was angry and anxious in her heart, and the man who received a thousand knives deliberately corrected her.
She didn't even dare to turn her head back now, for fear that the horse would run around without anyone to point her way.
I saw a village in front of me from a distance, and my heart was in my throat, what if I entered the village and touched the villagers?
She quietly loosened her stirrups and prepared to jump off the horse.
Her hand was about to let go of the reins when she heard a whistle, and she visibly felt that the horse's speed had slowed down.
After a few breaths, the man's cold voice sounded from behind him: "Didn't I tell you that I want to step on the stirrup?" You don't want to die? “
Lin Qingci turned around, and the others had already arrived, and she was angry: "Are you embarrassed to criticize me?" Why don't you say that this horse runs differently than a human? If I hadn't been smart enough to grasp the reins and steer the way, I would have been led here in the woods by it. ”
That's more dangerous!
Ye Shaoqing was not in a hurry: "Horses and people are naturally different from running. ”
Lin Qingci: "......"
He took a deep breath and controlled his emotions: "Don't pick on my language, you should understand what I mean." ”
"I have told you from before you got on the horse that this is a four-hoofed horse, that it can keep up with the convoy, that it is docile and very well controlled, that if you think it is not good, you can get on the carriage, and you decide to ride it yourself, why do you blame me? You whip it, and it speeds up, isn't that what you want? Besides, don't you whistle? This horse is just a mouthful, why don't you blow it? ”
Lin Qingci: "......"
She just said that he was waiting for her in a long way! "You didn't tell me either? And this is your horse, how can it listen to me? ”
"No one told you when you were hungry, how did you know?"
Lin Qingci was fooled.
Ye Shaoqing said again: "Do you still want to ride a horse?" Seeing that you are complaining like this, it is better for you to take a carriage, and my ears can be quiet. ”
Lin Qingci hesitated several times, if he changed trains at this time, his subordinates would definitely think that she was troublesome and toss people with her identity.
She can't be looked down upon: "Who said I was going to change trains?" When will it be off, though? My monthly letter is still there, this road is bumpy, you know? I'm looking for a place to change. ”
"There will be a post station before dark, and if you can't wait, you can get into the carriage."
Lin Qingzi was silent.
Slowly fell behind Ye Shaoqing, and was finally thrown to the carriage again.
Ning Xiang and Alain came over again: "Miss, I've just scared the slave to death, you better get into the carriage." ”
Lin Qingci waved his hand: "It's good to ride a horse." ”
The mountains are winding and drifting away.
After a long journey of half a month, we finally arrived at the rumored frontier, Tianxia Pass, before dark.
Compared with the prosperity of Beijing, it is very backward, the streets are not paved with green bricks, and the breeze is dusty.
The carriage stopped in front of a compound, and the Ye Mansion on the plaque was slightly shabby.
Only two young servants and a middle-aged grandmother were guarding here, and when they saw the group, they immediately saluted and received them.
The grandmother's surname is Dong, she is Ye Shaoqing's nurse, she secretly looked at Lin Qingci several times along the way, and carefully looked at Ning Xiang and Alan who were following her.
The halls of the main house do not have a floor cover, but are separated by a curtain.
But the decoration inside is very exquisite.
The floor is spotless, and it seems that it is often cleaned.
Ning Xiang and Alan put down their luggage, waited for Ye Shaoqing to go out, and surrounded Lin Qingci: "Miss, it's too stumbling here, can you get used to it?" ”
"It's a little old, but we can renovate it, buy some paint and fix it. A large plot of land in the yard can be decorated with some flowers and plants and made into a small garden. ”
Before the sound fell, the door was pushed open, and Mama Dong walked in: "Madam, that's where the eldest son practiced." ”
Ning Xiang snorted: "Presumptuous! How do you do it, do you have room for you to interject when the master speaks? You don't even knock on the door when you enter the house, if Miss Childe is here, wouldn't you have bumpered with them by doing so? ”
Mama Dong paused for a moment, and her face was gloomy: "You girl is so vicious, how can you serve the master?" Madam, this girl is arrogant, according to the old slave's opinion, it is better to sell it. ”
Lin Qingci was taken aback.
Ning Xiang beat Shen Qiurong's personal maid A Luo, and Pang Zi learned that he didn't punish her at all.
As soon as this mother opened her mouth, she turned out to be a seller.
She saw that this old woman was used to being in charge here! I don't know who my last name is! "I'm crazier than her, are you going to let the eldest prince sell me?"
