Chapter 225: What My Sister Said
Xue Nuo mingled in the crowd, surrounded by some young ladies of the family.
She looks good, smiles generously and heartily, and her dress is even more flattering.
The people around her were already curious about her, coupled with Zhao Su's posture of protecting Xue Nuo's shortcomings, everyone could see that Zhao Susu had a good relationship with her, so no matter what she thought in her heart, at least on the surface, she greeted her quite kindly.
Xue Nuo responded generously, and returned the salute one by one, neither stingy nor humble and polite in his words, and the proportions were just right, which made others look up to him.
The people who can play with Zhao Susu have a very good family background, and their personalities can match her eyes.
Xue Nuo laughed with them for a while, and soon became acquainted.
She only remembered the others, but two of them were deliberately taken to heart.
One is Miss Kang's cousin, named Xu Xiyue, a girl from the Xu family of Shuokang, her mother and Princess Kang are cousins, Bai Jinyuan also has to call her a cousin, this time with her father's transfer to Beijing, followed the people of King Kang's Mansion to the hunting ground to play.
Another short and fat man with a big mouth is called Ge Chong, and he is the only son of Ge Xiangdong, the political envoy.
Xue Nuo intentionally quickly figured out the temperament of the two.
When they arrived at the horse training farm, a group of people had become closer, and the young ladies also followed Zhao Susu and called Xue Nuo's name together.
There are people from the Imperial Horse Warden guarding this side of the horse farm, and when they see this group of people coming, someone immediately comes forward.
Zhao Sufu said about the prince's gift of horses, and the eunuch in charge of the imperial horse supervisor suddenly smiled with a wrinkled face: "There is such a thing, His Royal Highness the prince has explained earlier, saying that let Xue Xiaogongzi choose a horse he likes, and also said that the lord of Linyang can also choose one." ”
Zhao was suddenly overjoyed: "I also have a share?" ”
"Of course, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is thinking about the county lord." The eunuch complimented.
Zhao Susu was very happy, pointed to the horses in front of him and asked, "Can you choose all the horses here?" ”
The eunuch in charge replied: "You can do it on this side of the fence, these horses are domesticated and won't hurt people, and there are a few fierce horses separated by the fence over there that don't let people get close, the county lord and Xue Xiaogongzi don't get too close when they choose later, lest the fierce horses hurt people and collide with the two." ”
Zhao Yu nodded when he heard this: "I know, you go and get busy first, and then call you when we pick it out." ”
After the steward and eunuch retreated, they all reached the edge of the fence.
Surrounded by wooden fences, the horses around them were fat and strong, with shiny hair, and they were all carefully selected at first glance.
Ge Chong looked at those horses, his chubby face was full of envy: "These horses are all good horses, my father has looked at people before and was greedy, but he said that this is the royal horse supervisor who specially made a trip to domesticate it to supply the royal people, and others don't even think about it, the county lord, you can forget it, I didn't expect His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to be willing to give it to Arnold." ”
Several other people also looked at Xue Nuo.
Xue Nuo smiled: "I also borrowed the light of the eldest brother of the Shen family, when I played with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince before, His Royal Highness let me win a bet, and I coveted this horse and accepted it cheekily." ”
Several people were amused by her words.
They are all of high background, and they are not the kind of cautious people, although they are envious of Xue Nuo's reward from the prince, they don't feel jealous, not to mention that Xue Nuo is interesting and rare to be in their eyes.
Several people urged Xue Nuo and Zhao Susu to come forward to choose horses, and laughed and asked them to pick the two best horses.
Xue Nuo and Zhao Suo had long coveted these horses, and after the two approached, they looked left and right, Zhao Suo rolled his eyes again, and called Xue Nuo to the other side.
"County Lord, this is the ...... of Liema," Xu Xiyue said.
Zhao Yu said: "If the fierce horse is tamed, it will be interesting, and those gentle horses are not good enough to run, besides, my sister said before that the fierce horse is loyal, and the more fierce the horse, after admitting the master, it will only obey this master, as long as it can be tamed, no one can ride it in the future." ”
That's the only one!
When others heard this, they only thought that the sister in Zhao Su's mouth was someone from the Anguo Mansion, or a princess of the royal family, but Xue Nuo was stunned, remembering that when she was a child, she dragged Zhao Susu and secretly followed the people of the princess's mansion to catch wild horses, and was almost trampled to death by a random horse.
At that time, she was quite inferior, broke her head and bled blood, and pointed to the horses in the horse farm and said that she would ride the fiercest one.
Zhao Susu cried and pulled her sleeve and said that she was going to ride the pony next to her, but she was unwilling, and said this, but I didn't expect Zhao Susan to remember it after so many years.
"Arnold, what are you doing in a daze, come on!"
Zhao Yu shouted at Xue Nuo, and ran over first.
Xue Nuo and a few others also followed, and when they arrived, they suddenly saw Zhao Yu who didn't know what he saw, and pointed to one of the directions and laughed: "Look, that horse looks really interesting!" ”
Xue Nuo followed her gaze and saw a horse parked on the edge of the racecourse.
The horse's face was pure white, and the ears, back, and other places in the head and tail were all black, and the mane was also black and translucent, and if you just looked at these, it was very powerful, but the point was that there were clumps of white hair under the saddle, which spread from the side all the way to the horse's belly, and even the front leg and hooves were white, and at first glance it seemed to be dyed and particularly mottled.
The horse was roaming around the fence, and the other horses around him were far away.
It did not feel isolated at all, but leisurely gnawed on the grass on the ground, flicking its tail and pacing slowly.
Xue Nuo and several people stepped forward with surprise, and Xu Xiyue was surprised: "Why does this horse look like this?" ”
Ge Chong looked at the mottled color with some disgust: "It's really ugly." ”
The horse seemed to understand this, and suddenly turned his head to look this way, as if he was looking at the little fat man on the side of the stall who was judging it, and when he turned his head for a while, the big eyes of the brass bell revealed a little disdain.
Ge Chong: "...... Damn, it looks down on me?! ”
The people around laughed, and Zhao Su covered his stomach: "Whoever told you to call it ugly, no one thinks you are fat." ”
"That's it, you still said in front of others that you deserve to be disgusted by horses!"
"Ge Xiaopang, even the horse dislikes you, it's time for you to lose weight."
Ge Chong listened to a few people laughing at him, and said "bah" angrily.
Xue Nuo was also amused, and she approached to take a closer look at the pattern on the horse's body.
At first glance, I felt that the color of the horse's body was mottled, but when I got closer and looked closer, I found that the white hair on the horse's body spread from the bottom of the spine all the way to the belly of the horse.
