Chapter 58: Advice

Xiao Yan was out of the customs, and Xiao Cong didn't let her accompany her, although he no longer suspected that the county lord took a fancy to Xiao Yan, it was always good to reduce the chance of meeting. Xiao Yan stayed in Leshui to practice, or accompanied Shen Qingyi to participate in the banquet of the ladies and ladies of Weizhou.

Weizhou is a border city, and the atmosphere is more open than Hezhou, although Xiao Yan is tall, but he is only a fifteen-year-old boy, and no one thinks it is inappropriate to mix in a group of noble ladies and little ladies, and the Xiao family in Lanling is strict, and the children of the Xiao family are not allowed to touch women if they are not seventeen, this is known to the Hexi Shi family, of course, they are not worried about what will happen, as for Xiao Langjun and the little lady's eye wave delivery, pulling hands next to the waist or something, what is it? Even if there are kisses and hugs in private, and no one sees them, it is nothing. What's more, the seventeenth lang of the Xiao family is very regular, his eyes are clear and decent, he never looks around, and when he walks in the garden, he protects behind Mrs. Shizi and follows suit, and he is very cautious, but the eyes of the little ladies are always on her, and they want to come to her. After Xiao Yan participated in a garden banquet at a noble lady's house, the reputation of "being decent and polite" spread.

But Shen Qingyi took her to two banquets and didn't take her, half-hated and half-teased, saying that she would not be taken advantage of by a little lady. The arrogance of this Weizhou noble girl really made Shen Qingyi a little unbearable, the eyes in the public should not be bright with hooks, and what does it mean to deliberately rub this side when visiting the garden?

Shen Qingyi didn't want her to accompany her, Xiao Yan couldn't go either, she would rather stay in the courtyard to practice martial arts than participate in this kind of banquet, and she couldn't bear those enthusiastic eyes. She felt that it was better to really put some rash on her face to scare away a large patch, so that the little ladies would feel "more mysterious and charming through the mask"β€”this sentence was good to her ears. Of course, her idea of disfigurement was slapped down by Shen Qingyi.

The things at your family's banquet always spread quickly, and after Xiao Yan attended two banquets, even Leshanju heard of her good name.

Because Xiao Yan was the key person ordered by the county lord of Qingchuan, the Eagle Group also reported this news. The eldest maid Qin Xin was puzzled: "Since Xiao Shishilang is a young and heroic man, why didn't Xiao Shizi take him to the barracks?" Is it jealousy? "The plot of the son of the world who is jealous of the third son who is not born of the same mother was instantly conceived in his mind.

Under the lamp, the county lord of Qingchuan looked at the information collected by the eagle group and classified by the maid, and sneered lightly, "He is afraid that I will approach Xiao Seventeen. ”

Qin Xin immediately thought of another direction, "Could it be that Xiao Shizi is worried that the county lord takes a fancy to Xiao Seventeen Lang?" ”

Generally speaking, the family surnamed A is willing to marry the daughter to the royal family, but rarely willing to "marry" the concubine to the princess of the royal family, unless the son is not outstanding, only the function of inheritance or marriage is left, but Xiao Seventeen Lang entered the extreme realm at the age of fifteen, where is not outstanding, it is simply extremely talented, this kind of talent Xiao Baby is too late, how can he "marry" to the royal marriage? It is reasonable for Xiao Shizi to guard against the county lord.

The county lord of Qingchuan laughed, she married Xiao Yan?

After Qin Xin's reminder, she suddenly felt that she might have thought about it, and Xiao Cong might not know Xiao Yan's identity at all. She originally thought that Xiao Cong was guarding her against her approaching Xiao Yan because she was worried that Xiao Yan's innocence would give rise to a good impression of her, and then a good impression of the royal family, but what if Xiao Cong didn't know Xiao Yan's identity? This is very possible, after all, Xiao Yan's background is too embarrassing, and she wants Xiao Yu and Princess Anping to tell her son that Seventeen is the daughter of your father and your aunt...... I guess I can't speak.

So, is Xiao Cong guarding her against falling in love with his "younger brother"?

"Hahaha......" The more the county lord of Qingchuan thought about it, the funnier he became, and he leaned forward and leaned back, and several big maids were inexplicably laughed by her.

Jean thought to herself, are her words so funny?

After thinking about it, how could the county lord ever "fancie" which Lang Jun? Even if it is the county lord's mother's family, Cui Qingjue, the most outstanding beautiful man of the Qinghe Cui family, can only praise the county lord "Qionghua Yushu", and there is no follow-up. Is Xiao Qiqi more handsome and elegant than Cui Qilang? Besides, their county lord is not a person who is confused by beauty.

The county lord of Qingchuan smiled and squinted slightly, "This is really interesting." ”

Seeing her demeanor, several big maids said in their hearts: The county lord is going to calculate people again.

The next day, when he came out of the barracks with Xiao Cong, the county lord of Qingchuan smiled and said, "I heard that Seventeen Lang is very popular in your family." ”

Wei Yun sat on his shoulder and smiled. This kind of peachy ambiguous news has always spread the fastest, the three girls of the Wei family couldn't stop praising Xiao Yan after returning from the banquet, Wei Yingzhou snorted disdainfully at that time, saying that Xiao Seventeen was not doing his job and mixed in the women's pile, and was immediately scraped by his sisters with eye knives for a while. It was still Mrs. Wei who was insightful and said to Wei Yun in private: "The county lord is practicing in the army, and Xiao Shizi is probably a little scruples." "The county lord will be twenty in February next year, and it is time to perform the crown ceremony, if there is an engagement, there will be a big wedding after the crown ceremony, and if there is no engagement, it will be said that the prince of Liang Guo is an opportunity to isolate the contact between the county lord of Qingchuan and Xiao Seventeen Lang, and it seems that the Guogong Mansion still attaches great importance to this "third son".

Xiao Cong smiled and said, "Seventeen years are young and restrained, it's good to see more people at the banquet." ”

These words cleverly said that Xiao Yan's participation in the ladies' banquet was an increase in knowledge.

The next morning, Xiao Cong's patrol army brought Xiao Yan with him, saving the reputation of being mixed with women, which is not a good reputation for the family Langjun.

His doubts about the Qingchuan county lord taking a fancy to Xiao Yan have been dispelled, in the final analysis, this is an unreasonable judgment made by him as an elder brother who is too close to his younger brother, with the delicate relationship between the royal family and the Xiao family, it is impossible for the Qingchuan county lord to marry the Xiao family's children. After Xiao Cong calmed down, he figured this out, and he no longer cared about Xiao Yan appearing in front of the county lord of Qingchuan, of course, there must be precautions, and the seventeenth eye of the heart is not the opponent of the county lord of Qingchuan, so it is better to keep a distance.

Wei Yun and Wei Yingzhou's father and son were already waiting at the gate of Zhirenyuan, and Xiao Cong and his party came out to wait for less than half a moment, and the county lord of Qingchuan and his party came out.

Xiao Cong took Xiao Yan forward and saluted, and officially introduced: "County Lord, this is Cong's seventeenth brother Yan, the word is Yuezhi." ”

Xiao Yan clasped his hands together and saluted her, "Xiao Yan has seen the county lord. ”

The county lord of Qingchuan laughed at her: "Seventeen Lang is not going to the banquet of the noble lady today?" ”

Xiao Yan said honestly: "It's been a long time since I went, I can't even interject what the ladies and ladies said about clothes, jewelry, makeup, hair buns, etc., playing the piano and doing poetry or something, it's not what I'm good at, I still stay in the yard and practice knives freely, I understand this." ”

The county lord of Qingchuan listened to it with joy.

Wei Yun also laughed, thinking that this young man Tancheng was interesting. Wei Yingzhou's impression of Xiao Yan changed again, and he felt that Xiao Qiqi was still the young man he met for the first time, not a merry man mixed in the fat powder pile.

The group rode out of the house and galloped to the camp of the Wasion Army in the northern city.

Today is a parade of mounted archery. The Wasion Army had ten battalions, four cavalry battalions, and six infantry battalions, with the cavalry battalion reviewing horse archery and the infantry battalion reviewing infantry archery. In the morning, it was a review of horse shooting.

The three cavalrymen were very good at arching their horses, and the arrows they shot at the gallop all hit the target a hundred paces away.

The most outstanding is to go to the camp first, and finally appear, 1,250 horses roared like thunder in the clouds, but the horse's steps were neat and consistent "Boom!" Rumble! "It sounds like 1,250 horses stepping down at the same time, which shows that the cavalry is skilled and well-trained, and the key is the momentum like a tiger coming out of the mountain! The cavalry on the horse were all half-lying on horseback, and when they swept over the school field, they drew bows and arrows in batches, and the sound of "whooshing" was endless, and each feather arrow was accurately inserted into the arrow target a hundred steps away on both sides, hitting the red heart. This half-crouched position is the best posture to defend against enemy archery, and it is of course more difficult to shoot in this position than to shoot arrows in a straight position.

There were cheers from below the school grounds.

There was also a crisp high-five on the viewing platform, and the county lord of Qingchuan smiled and nodded: "General Wei's reputation for governing the army is well deserved. ”

Xiao Cong also praised: "Tiger generals and tiger troops." ”

The commander who first landed in the camp was surnamed Han Chonghu, his face was dark, his body was like an iron tower, his voice was like a bell, and he saluted to the viewing platform with his fists: "Please advise the county lord and the prince." ”

No one stipulates that the military parade should show martial arts, but the military camp advocates force, if you want to convince these soldiers, you have to show force, of course, no general with troops will understand the reckless request for the parade to show martial arts, Han Chonghu will not be so ignorant, and it is of course Wei Yun's instruction to put forward "advice".

Wei Yun This is a chance to give the son of the county lord of Qingchuan and the governor of Hexi Province a fair show.

Xiao Cong smiled and tilted his head, "Seventeen." ”

Xiao Yan took two steps forward, saluted Xiao Cong first, turned around and walked to the front of the stage, hugged his fists to the audience, and said loudly: "Certain, Xiao Yan, the seventeenth brother of the world, is not as good as his brother Wen Taowuluo, and he can only use two hands of rough and shallow archery skills, so he is ugly here." ”

Han Chonghu reined in and returned to the camp. The four battalions of cavalry on both sides of the viewing platform were all solemn on their horses, looking at the peerless archery skills of the seventeen Lang of this country's mansion.

Xiao Yan turned around and took a black lacquer four-foot bow handed over by Xiao Chengzhong, and if there was a good eyesight in the audience, he could see that the string was a heavy string, and the strength of the bow arm was afraid that it would take ten stones to pull it away.

What is surprising is that this seventeenth Langjun did not get on the arrow, raised his arm and pulled the heavy string like a full moon, and let it go violently.

"Buzz!"

A sound that soured people's teeth and shook people's ears resounded over the school field.

Listening to the sound of "swish", on the two rows of arrow targets erected by a hundred steps on both sides of the viewing platform, 1,250 arrows that hit the red heart of the first camp were shot forward in unison, and the arrows of the Iron Clan were cold, two feet through the target, and only a tail feather was still behind the target.

"Shhh Four battalions of five thousand cavalry hissed in unison.

After a while, the cavalry shouted: "Mighty! ”

Han Chonghu laughed and said, "Seventeen Langjun has good internal strength and good archery skills. ”

Xiao Yan hugged his fists and saluted, and said: "A certain archery skill is rough, not as good as the bow β–‘ Zhan of the army, only a few strengths, and I smiled." ”

The five thousand cavalry shouted again: "Mighty! There was admiration in his eyes.

If they all have these "few strengths", they don't need to practice arrows, not to mention that they all have eyes, and they can make 1,250 arrows penetrate the target together, and the size is the same, which is not something that can be done with deep internal strength.

Xiao Yan clasped her fists again, and was about to turn around and retreat, the county lord of Qingchuan had already gotten up and walked to her side, smiling and stretching out his hand, Xiao Yan was stunned and handed her the bow.

The cavalry in the audience was slightly commotional, and with excited anticipation.

The county lord of Qingchuan wore purple arrow sleeves and the crown of the Tiance Wuqing, standing in front of the stage like a purple sword, which made people feel intimidated. The commotion in the audience rose and fell slightly, and it was silent.

The lord of Qingchuan pulled the bow, which was also an empty string, open like a full moon.

The fingers are lightly placed, and the strings fall silently.

But under the viewing platform is the sound of "swish", and it is the sound of "swishing", only to see that the 1,250 branches on the arrow target are all out of the target, flying forward, and the cavalry who are listed on both sides of the arrow target 30 steps away are shocked, the arrow shoots straight out, almost let people get off their horses to dodge, but the cavalry are like iron cast on the horse and do not move, this is good discipline, but also shows the firmness of these cavalry.

The dense arrows flew out a few feet and then fell one after another, the tips of the arrows plunging into the ground.

This empty string vibrating technique seems to be no different from Xiao Yan's.

But the cavalry in front had already exclaimed:

"Mighty as a tiger!"

"The Tang Dynasty is mighty!"

The exclamations of the cavalry on both sides of the east and west sounded almost simultaneously.

The dense feathered arrows fell to the ground and formed eight characters:

"Mighty as a tiger!"

"The Tang Dynasty is mighty!"

After the chaotic exclamations on both sides, there was silence in the audience.

Wei Yun laughed, got up, and hugged his fists to the county lord of Qingchuan and said, "Mighty as a tiger!" - Thank you for the praise of the county lord. He faced the audience again and shouted, "Mighty as a tiger!" Datang is mighty! ”

The five thousand cavalry cheered in unison, shouting:

"Mighty as a tiger!"

"The Tang Dynasty is mighty!"

Xiao Yan was in a shocking mood, and secretly admired the county lord of Qingchuan, he was really inferior to her at present.

Xiao Cong's face was solemn, and he seemed to be infected by the atmosphere of the school, but his heart sank.

The author has something to say: time is like an arrow - the festival is the most profound. Archery represents the resentment of a certain Sensen~~~
