Chapter XXIV Equestrian Training Course

As soon as dawn, Zhao Chengping went to the post house to find Qiao Yu and tell her about the attack, but the servant said that she had gone to the horse farm early in the morning. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

At this time, there were already many people in the racecourse, even Wang Ji was there, those people were gathered in one place, I don't know what they were looking at, Zhao Chengping squeezed into the crowd, raised his eyes, and a dust and smoke led all the way forward in the distance, and then several followed.

After a while, the horses came back, and Zhao Chengping saw clearly that the person riding on the back of the white horse turned out to be Qiao Yu, she was dressed in a strong suit, and the more heroic she looked, under the background of the rising sun, Qiao Yu's slightly sweaty face was more bright.

She also saw Zhao Chengping in the crowd, smiling and galloping on a horse, stopping beside him:

"Would you like to ride a lap?"

Zhao Chengping shook his head:

"I have something to tell you."

Qiao Yu dismounted, handed the reins to the groom beside him, and went to the side with Zhao Chengping to talk about last night's incident, Wang Ji looked very happy, he didn't expect Zhao Chengping, this kid to shoot so quickly, he had already surrendered this legendary cold woman.

"Are you hurt?" Hearing that Zhao Chengping was attacked at night, Qiao Yu asked anxiously, looking up and down on his body.

Embarrassed by her, Zhao Chengping hurriedly said: "No, his kung fu is not as good as mine, but he always comes in the middle of the night, it's really annoying, if one day they decide to use poison, then I don't even have to eat and drink myself, or solve it as soon as possible." ”

Qiao Yu nodded and asked, "Do you doubt Wang Ji?" ”

"I don't have a conflict of interest with him now, no."

"And who else have you offended? Who is Zhao Guo? ”

"Probably not, Pingyuanjun also knows that it is not me who wants to stay in the Qin Kingdom, it is he who left me in the Qin Kingdom."

Qiao Yu thought about it again: "He knows that he left you in the Qin State, so do his subordinates know?" ”

"Uh......" Zhao Chengping said in a speech, this matter is not easy to say, in case those few people with blood and qi are surging, and those people who have no brains are excited, they really think that they are the people who betrayed Zhao Guo and betrayed Pingyuan Jun, then what they do is normal. But thinking about it carefully, Zhao Chengping shook his head again:

"I can see from the memories of those killers that it was a person hiding behind the curtain who gave them the order, and I haven't heard that voice before, if Pingyuanjun or the other doormen did it, they shouldn't be so sneaky."

After thinking about it for a long time, he didn't have a clue, Wang Ji came over:

"What are you two whispering? Go, go to my house, I'm glad today, these twenty good horses are really too timely. ”

Only twenty horses? Zhao Chengping looked at Qiao Yu, and Qiao Yu said: "There is no cavalry in the Qin State, and these twenty horses are for the scouts." ”

"Yes, with these twenty good horses, the speed is much faster to probe the enemy."

Zhao Chengping suddenly thought about Liu Quan and said to Wang Ji:

"Liu Quan, who took me to the Governor's Mansion last time, I see that he is careful and has a lot of ideas, although he is thin, but now that he has a good horse, he should also be a good candidate for scouts."

"Liu Quan?" Wang Ji looked at him in confusion, searching for this name in his mind, but he couldn't remember it, and someone next to him reminded: "It's the thin man guarding the door." ”

"Oh, it's him." Wang Ji was still very puzzled, "He has been in my house for a long time, and I didn't see that he still had this ability, but I didn't hear that he could ride a horse?" ”

"If he will, Lord Wang should also give him a chance." Zhao Chengping smiled.

Wang Ji nodded in disbelief, and loudly announced that in three days, a horse trial conference would be held, and at that time, forty of the most skilled equestrian people would be selected from the army as elite scouts.

――――

"I've never ridden a horse, and my family doesn't have the opportunity to practice." Hearing the news that he was going to be selected, Liu Quan was very embarrassed.

Zhao Chengping patted him on the shoulder: "There is always a first time, and there are ten days, as long as you are not stupid, you can always learn." ”

"But I don't have a ......."

"With me here, are you afraid that there will be no horses?" The corners of Zhao Chengping's mouth were slightly hooked.

In the evening, after Liu Quan got off duty, he sneaked to the horse farm, those regular soldiers had finished the day's drill, and there was only one groom on the horse farm who was adding forage to the trough, and Zhao Chengping and Qiao Yu were already waiting there.

"Oh, let the two adults wait for me, it's really ......" Liu Quan rubbed his hands.

"Less nonsense, get on the horse." Qiao Yu had already pulled out one of the gentlest horses, with all the harnesses available, and even stirrups. Zhao Chengping looked at Qiao Yu:

"Cheating?"

Qiao Yu pursed her lips and smiled: "You don't seem to be innocent." ”

Liu Quan, who was riding on a horse for the first time, trembled: "I...... And then what should I do......"

Qiao Yu looked up at him: "Clamp the horse's body with your legs, grab the reins, are you ready?" ”

"What?" Liu Quan's whole body is now stiff.

"Drive!"

"Wow!!"

Qiao Yu raised his hand and gave the horse's butt a whip, and the war horse galloped forward in pain, Liu Quan exclaimed, and then quickly calmed down and ran straight for a long distance.

Until the starry sky, he has initially mastered the essentials of movement, although the movements are still very clumsy, but the basic movements, start, stop, turn the horse's head and so on, have already been modeled.

"Well, I have a good eye, right?" Zhao Chengping looked at Liu Quan, who was galloping in the night.

Qiao Yu turned his head to look at him, under the light of the torches in the racecourse, the bridge of his nose was straight, and his sword eyebrows were raised.

"It's so pretty."

Zhao Chengping was puzzled: "Huh? ”

"Nothing." Qiao Yu lowered his head to hide his feverish face, but unfortunately the light was too dim, and Zhao Chengping didn't notice it.

The evening breeze blew on the racecourse, and Qiao Yu found that his clothes were a little thin, and the wind blew through his clothes, making his skin cold. She had just folded her arms to keep warm when she felt a weight fall on her shoulders.

She was stunned for a moment, and found that this was the big sash that Zhao Chengping was wearing just now, and when the wind rose just now, he had taken it off and draped it on himself.

"You ......" Qiao Yu was a little embarrassed.

Zhao Chengping still looked at Liu Quan's direction: "It was already late when I came out, thinking that maybe it would be cold in the open space here, but I didn't expect that my strength has increased so much that I will heat up on my own, and my clothes are really burning my heart, I see that you will need it more, help me hold it." ”

Qiao Yu felt a warmth in her heart, and said "um" gently.

The two stood side by side in the starry sky, and Qiao Yu suddenly felt that the man beside him might be worth relying on. involuntarily leaned towards him again, but Zhao Chengping would be wrong:

"What, is it still cold?"

Reaching out and hugging her shoulder, "Either let's go back." ”

Qiao Yu pointed at Liu Quan: "He's still on the horse." ”

"I think he's riding well, he'll go back by himself after a while, and the horse will be cleaned up by the groom anyway." Zhao Chengping glanced at Liu Quan's direction again.

The next day, when Zhao Chengping saw Liu Quan again, he was still standing at the gate of the county guard's mansion, and Zhao Chengping asked in a low voice, "How is it?"

Liu Quan looked at him with a sad face: "My butt hurts, I went back yesterday, and a big piece of skin was worn out." ”

Zhao Chengping suddenly remembered: "Are you sitting on the saddle with your buttocks?" ”

"yes."

Oh no...... Yesterday I seemed to have forgotten to tell him that the horse's body should be clamped on the horse's body, and the butt is basically not against the saddle, uh, I was going to tell him, but why did I forget it?

Looking at Liu Quan's appearance, Zhao Chengping didn't dare to admit that he forgot to tell him, so he had to pretend to say:

"Ah, don't always sit in the saddle next time, just put a few thick cloths and continue to practice tonight."

Although Liu Quan grinned in pain, he thought that he could become a soldier and make meritorious contributions, so he gritted his teeth and nodded.

This time Qiao Yu gave Liu Quan serious advice, Liu Quan's understanding is very strong, coupled with hard work, he soon made great progress, Zhao Chengping asked in a low voice: "Do you think, does he have a play?" ”

Looking at his figure on the horse, Qiao Yu thought for a while: "Although it is still far from my request, however, among the Qin army, it should be considered good, no problem." ”

After practicing, Zhao Chengping took Qiao Yu and Liu Quan back to the Governor's Mansion, and Liu Quan stood at the door stunned:

"This ...... What is this place? ”

Bi Fei and Hong Aya's major renovation of the Duwei Mansion made Liu Quan unrecognizable, Zhao Chengping smiled: "Follow me carefully, if you take a wrong step here, you will fall into the trap." ”
