Chapter 17 Winning the Horse

"Horse official" Sheng Linyun shouted, and a short official poked his head out, "Who?" ”

Mo Wei cleverly raised the official seal and black gauze hat that had just been put away, and the official hurriedly ran over when he saw it, "Small, there are no beads, dare to ask if the adult has just come to Liucheng." ”

"Well, yes, the horse was lost just now, the luggage is gone, I saw that there are still a few miles to the county seat, I happened to meet a post station, I want to borrow two horses, and when the time comes, I will bother you to go to Liucheng County to get it, it will give you benefits" Sheng Linyun said in a decent way, giving people a sense of calmness.

"Ouch, then thank you, master! I'll pick two for you" The official wanted to lead the horse, but Sheng Linyun stopped him, "No, I want this one, you can help me take care of it"

Mo Wei was a little confused, "Brother, this horse is dirty." Before I had the energy, I could tell it was a waste horse. ”

"Yes, master, this horse is this grass, a camel will fall, a camel will fall, I will pick something else for you." As soon as the official had finished explaining, the horse suddenly sneezed, making him drool in the face, and went back to sleep.

Sheng Linyun liked it so much, "No, just want this horse, and then just pick one at random." The official didn't dare to say anything more, so he took care of it.

"Brother, do you know anything again, what's so good about this horse, you have to ask for it" Mo Wei was very curious, but he believed that Sheng Linyun had a vision.

"This horse is for you" Sheng Linyun continued, "Look at it, it's a good horse, you treat it well"

After the horse was cleaned up, the official looked at it and felt that it was much more pleasing to the eye than before, but it was still too thin, and then shook his head and muttered, "It's nothing."

The horse's original yellow skin was already black and shiny, the horse's neck was a row of white manes, close to the top of the forehead only exuded a pinch of red hair, the nose was constantly spurting, probably water splashed in, the tall skeleton did not look powerful, the first was that it was too thin, the second was that it still closed its eyes, shook its head a few times, and its four hooves symbolically moved a few times, and it looked dejected, I don't know if it was really sleepy or fake sleep.

The two led the horse and left the post station, Sheng Linyun was fortunately leisurely on the horseback, Mo Wei could only lead the horse on foot, this horse really fell as soon as he got on the ground, and he was so angry that he wanted to slaughter it.

"Or you can ride me" Mo Wei quipped at the horse, now it's okay, this horse simply won't go, and stands in place with his eyes closed, "I said, don't rely on my brother to take care of you, you don't take me seriously" Mo Wei looked at it coldly and wanted to scare it.

"Come over with you" Sheng Linyun was happy on the side, and whispered a few words in Mo Wei's ear.

Mo Wei triumphantly walked to the side of the black horse and touched the saddle, "Ah, it's a pity, such a good saddle, put on a donkey, the black horse instantly opened his eyes, his nostrils spewed, and the horse's hooves rubbed the ground a little dishonestly, looking angry." Mo Wei continued to say, "Brother, or I sell the saddle, let's ride a horse, don't ask for this donkey..." Mo Wei hugged the horse's neck tightly, dragged the horse rope to death, felt the fierceness of the horse, and couldn't help shouting "Good horse, good horse!" But the horse couldn't listen anymore, the horse neighed through the forest, the horse's mane and tail flowed in the air with the gallop of the black horse, a black shadow shuttled back and forth between the trees, Mo Wei's face was cut everywhere, but he was getting more and more excited, that kind of passionate feeling, Hao Erlang was naturally full of guts.

The sky is getting dark, and the duel between one person and one horse is also coming to an end, Mo is different to see the force, and pull the horse rope fiercely, the black horse's head is pulled straight backwards, and after seeing the direction clearly, it finally stopped, stepped on the spot a few times and shook the horse's mane, Mo Wei took a wild breath, "Good horse, this is worthy of a thousand miles of horse, no!" Miles! Hiss! It hurts" Mo is different and then he found that his body was full of wounds, his clothes had been scraped, and then he looked at the horse and there were also holes on the horse's body, "It's really a good horse, how will it be with me in the future" Mo Wei After getting off the horse, he leaned his head against the horse's head "Ah, how about me, I will let you run in a wider area, at least among ten thousand people" I couldn't say anything grandiose, but Mo Wei's eyes were full of edge. The black horse raised his front hooves again and hissed, and then gently bumped Mo Wei with his head, Mo Wei smiled happily, full of pride.

Sheng Linyun rode a horse and found Mo Wei, "You two should treat the wound first, I picked some white thatched flowers, and then put a little compress after eating." ”

"Thank you, brother" Mo Wei was very happy, his eyes were filled with tears, and the scene of himself fighting bravely in Changsha had already appeared in his mind.

One night a few days later, in the Zichen Hall of the Central Forbidden City in Chang'an, Emperor Zhongxiao looked at the envelope in his hand repeatedly with a gloomy face, and an old man kneeled under the stage, his forehead hit the ground, and beads of sweat the size of beans continued to roll down to the ground, soaking the blanket, and his body trembled.

"The widow asked you, have you ever received a report from Lion Camel City?"

The old man nodded.

"Lion Camel City is an important exploration city in the northwest direction, any pass has wolf smoke, you can see it clearly, this Langping Pass, Fuyue Pass, Jiaoyu Pass, how long have the three places been broken, by whom? The general who defended the city... Have you said it? "Emperor Zhongxiao said three times, unhurried. For the kneeling martial arts secretary part-time is a kind of torment, "The emperor, the minister deserves death, ask the emperor to punish the crime"

"Oh, ten thousand deaths, you... Can't die" The emperor pinched his eyebrows, "The widow has succeeded to the throne for twelve years, and it has been almost eighty or two years since the founding of Gaozu, and they should also resist, the widow has already issued an order to let the other border passes keep their duties, and your holy decree should not mislead them, otherwise the soldiers at the other passes have been transferred, haven't you thought about the consequences in case other countries attack?" ”

"Your Majesty... Shengming, minister... The minister is willing to break the corpse into thousands of pieces" The old man didn't expect that he would fake the holy decree, and the emperor actually knew about it, and he was as disheartened as death.

"The widow said, you don't need to die, do you know who reminded the widow of these things? A small Liucheng county order! He also reminded the widow to let the widow send troops to Lion Camel City as soon as possible, as for recruiting troops, I want to think about it, or do I want you to do it, you should know better than the widow, how much has been lacking over the years... How many soldiers! The names that the widow has ever seen on your so-called roster of elite soldiers, there is not a single one missing. ”

"Emperor" Wube Shangshu couldn't believe his ears, and then trembled and picked up the black gauze hat that was put aside, "The minister did his best!" The three passes in the northwest direction of the emperor, Nailangzu, Xianbei, and Chongweng were attacked at the same time, and Weichen was worried that they would try their best to attack the Lion Camel City, and our army would not be able to defend it. "The so-called dying of people is also good at their words, and Takebe Shangshu thinks that he is a person who has died once, and he also said his inner thoughts.

"Lion Camel City is the bottleneck leading to the Central Plains outside the pass, easy to defend and difficult to attack, the army sent out by the widow will not be attacked immediately, go down, there is not much time left for us, three passes! No one is missing" Emperor Zhongxiao waved his hand, and at this time, the Nine Princes broke in, "Your Majesty!" Emperor!. ”

A father-in-law knelt down, "Your Majesty, the prince insists on breaking in, and he can't stop it." ”

"Your Majesty, the minister is looking for you for a major matter related to the country" The Nine Princes rushed in, and when they saw a person kneeling on the ground, "Old thief!" Okay, Your Majesty, I have a letter to show you" The Nine Princes didn't care about the guards on the side, and rushed directly to the emperor's side, if they wanted to say that this was suspected of killing the king, it didn't hurt if the guards wanted to stop the emperor.

The emperor took the letter and looked at it, it was exactly the same as the one in his hand, "Uncle Huang, you see, it is the same as the one in the hands of the widow"

The Nine Princes compared, "Hey? Then why write me one too? ”

"This Liucheng County Order should be afraid that the widow will not be able to see this letter, this person is rare!" The emperor felt a little pity, such a person actually didn't find out, and suddenly the emperor thought that something was wrong, 'This Liucheng is located in the south, why would he know the battle report in the northwest. ’

"Uncle Huang. Has this messenger ever seen Uncle Huang? The emperor signaled to Wubu Shangshu to retreat, but the ninth prince was not happy, "Don't you go, won't you interrogate the emperor?" ”

The old man who was kneeling on the ground got up and knelt down immediately after a while, his body and mind were already exhausted, and he was almost fainted by the emperor and the prince.

"The widow has been tried, he has recruited all, the widow has sent an elite division to the Lion Camel City to reinforce " Emperor Zhongxiao squeezed his tired eyes, "Now he can't punish the crime, he can't do it without him." ”

"Then the emperor, you still believe in him" The Ninth Prince was obviously a little anxious.

"Faith, he is greedy for money, but he is loyal, the widow wants to see the official who receives the letter, will you let him go?" Emperor Zhongxiao was very curious about how this Liucheng County Commander learned about the battle situation.

"How can you. I've brought it," the Nine Princes motioned to the eunuch to bring people in.
