Chapter 22: Blessings and Misfortunes (Part II)
"Don't ——!" Before An Youran finished shouting in a long procrastination, there was already a crisp whipping sound in his ears, An Youran subconsciously closed his eyes and waited for the pain on his body, but the strange thing was that it was not pain but a mournful roar, and then he seemed to hear the sound of the horse falling to the ground.
"Xiao An, it doesn't matter!" Luo Han patted An Youran's face and said comfortingly, "It's all over, it's all fine." ”
Hearing Luo Han's words, An Youran put his mind at ease, opened his eyes and took a closer look: he found that the prince was standing not far away, and his mount was lying in front of him.
"What's going on!?" An leisurely looked at everything in front of her with doubts, not understanding what was going on.
"Li Yanzong helped you block this whip, you really want to thank him now!" Luo Han explained.
Bowing down to inspect the horses that fell to the ground, he said with regret: "I hit the horse's face just now, and this injury will not heal for a while, it seems that Li Yan has no way to participate in this competition!" ”
"Your Royal Highness, are you okay?" A vigorous voice appeared at the scene, and Liu Kun, the Marquis of Zhongyuan, witnessed the chaotic scene of Shicai in the distance, and hurriedly ran to the rescue.
"Daddy......" Liu Wanxuan knew that she was in trouble, and shouted timidly, "I ......"
"Shut up!" Liu Kun rebuked sharply: "Why are you so unreasonable!? Unexpectedly, he disturbed His Highness, and he didn't want to make amends to the prince soon! ”
"Brother Shizi, I'm sorry." Liu Wanxuan was reprimanded one after another, feeling aggrieved in her heart, her mouth was flattened, and two lines of tears flowed, "I didn't mean to." ”
Yes, not intentionally, but intentionally! An leisurely stared at Liu Wanxuan indignantly, and muttered in a low voice, "Crocodile tears!" "What the hell is going on with this woman!? Is it crazy or the nerves are on the wrong line, why do you use him as an attack target every time?! Could it be that this is the legendary eight-character incompatibility?
Seeing Liu Wanxuan's sadness crying, Luo Han on the side couldn't bear it, and said, "Miss Liu must have been impulsive, but fortunately, everyone is safe and sound, except for Li Yan who can't participate, it's okay." Old marquis, you can also dissipate your anger, don't blame her too much. ”
Liu Kun has been this beloved daughter, and she has held it in the palm of her hand since she was a child, and she regards it as a treasure. Seeing her crying pear blossom with tears, she already wanted to comfort her. had no choice but to be in the presence of the prince, so he had to deliberately keep a straight face and be ruthless. Now Luo Han's persuasion happened to be right in the middle, and he said smoothly: "This time, fortunately, Luo Gongzi helped you intercede, otherwise I would have given you a good look!" ”
Motioned to Liu Yuxin with his eyes, "Why don't you take Xuan'er down quickly!" Order someone to watch me closely, don't run out and cause any trouble again! ”
After the Liu brothers and sisters left, Liu Kun did not leave later, but whispered something to the attendant beside him, who nodded and ran towards the camp quickly.
"Please stay, Your Highness," Liu Kun said to stop the son's footsteps, "Because the little girl is not sensible, she is tired and injured on the prince's mount, and she can't participate in this horse race, so how can I feel at ease?" Now I have ordered someone to bring my mount, and I ask the prince not to dislike it. ”
Sure enough, the servant brought a tall horse with a dark body and a coat that shone like a brocade. The horse's four hooves are slender, the horse's body lines are smooth, and the eyes are bright, and it is indeed extraordinary.
"This horse is Benhou's mount, named Dark Night, and it is a war horse that Akto paid tribute to, and I believe it will definitely satisfy the prince." Liu Kun handed over the reins, "I hope His Highness will smile and accept it." ”
Shizi didn't stretch out his hand to take it, but said lightly, "If I participate, what should Master Hou do?" No need, thank you for your kindness. ”
An leisurely listened to it, but suddenly came to his senses, and made a small calculation in his heart: Liu Kun was originally a favorite in the horse racing conference, and 50% of the people bought him to win, if he withdrew from the race, wouldn't it be ...... The money he won from buying him would be sent to the door for nothing?!
"Master, Old Marquis Liu is kind-hearted, if you refuse, wouldn't you live up to his old man's good intentions? Take it! Driven by monetary interests, An Youran even became a lobbyist for the Liu family.
"Mouthy!" Shizi was obviously extremely unhappy with this, and said in a cold voice with a calm face, "When will you have room to speak?" ”
Liu Kun laughed, "This slave really protects his master!" Shoved the reins into the hands of the prince, and said loudly: "This Jockey Club is also time for young people to show their talents, and I, the old arm and leg, will cheer for you from the stands!" Your Highness doesn't have to make excuses, if you don't accept it, you will think that this gift is too light, and you will look down on my Zhongyuan Marquis Mansion! Without waiting for the prince to refuse, he forcibly left the horses and waved away.
Looking at this high-headed horse, An Youran's eyes lit up with excitement, and he shouted to the prince: "Master, master, you can sit on it and try it, be familiar with it!" ”
Luo Han felt inexplicable about his excitement, and couldn't help but say, "It's Li Yandema, what are you happy about here?" ”
"I'm happy for my master, can't I!?" An leisurely glanced at Luo Han with disdain, "I've always been open-minded, don't think I'm like you!" ”
"My rat belly chicken intestines!?" Luo Han was so angry that he jumped to his feet, "Xiao An, why did you become indistinguishable from me and the enemy, and turned against each other!" ”
Ignoring Luo Han's complaints, An leisurely ran to the side of the prince and urged: "Master, try it quickly!" ”
The prince was also confused about An Ran's leisurely and attentive performance, staring at his smiling face with beautiful eyes, and concluded: "If something goes wrong, there must be a demon!" ”
At this time, the horn of the assembly was blown in the venue, and Tang Ning waved his arms and ran towards them, "Master, the prince asked you and Luo Gongzi to come to the main camp and prepare to go." ”
"Hmm." Shizi turned over and got on his horse, said behind him, "Luo Han, let's go." ”
"Good!" Luo Han also jumped on the horse, looked at An Youran, and advised, "Xiao An, come quickly." Just follow last night's practice during the game, don't be too nervous! You just don't fall off and finish the race! ”
"Got it, don't worry! With my ingenuity, riding a horse on my own, I can't figure it out!? No problem! Come on yourself! An grinned leisurely and said goodbye to them for a while.
"Bajie! You can do it! When Shizi and Luo Han disappeared, Tang Ning smiled brightly, "I actually came up with a good idea to make money with horse tickets!" You're really going to send it now! ”
"Of course!" An was smug leisurely, "Don't look at who the master is?" Don't worry, as long as you take care of the relevant matters, I will naturally not treat you badly! ”
Luo Han was overjoyed, he happily patted An Youran's shoulder, "Bajie, it's a brother, it's righteous enough!" ”
"Who has the highest odds right now?" An leisurely rolled his eyes and asked.
"Who?" Luo Han grinned, his face strange, "Who else could there be?" You and Luo Gongzi! You're the first-to-last, he's the second-to-last now! ”
"Great!" An leisurely raised her arms and exclaimed, "I'm full of motivation!" Holding Tang Ning and jumping and jumping, "As long as I win, it will be the biggest upset!" All the money is only in and out, and I really can't get rich if I don't want to! ”
Hearing this, Luo Han was naturally very excited, but then he realized something, and asked with a clear mind: "But didn't Bajie only learn to ride a horse once last night?" Did you win it!? ”
"It's man-made!" An Youran's eyebrows raised, "Master, I'm going to give it a go this time!" ”
