The feast finally dispersed.

His Royal Highness Shao left from the city lord's mansion.

From the house, I walked out step by step.

The officials on the left and right of the banquet left the table one after another to bow to His Highness.

His Royal Highness Shao took one step at a time and was about to stop, and saluted the officials who came forward to congratulate him.

His Royal Highness Huan, His Royal Highness Chong saw His Highness Shao like this, and his heart was full of bad feelings.

The most ridiculous thing is His Royal Highness Chong, who is also the heir of Emperor Yuan of the Jin Dynasty, although it is worse than His Royal Highness, but the same His Highness, but he now has such a high prestige, and what about himself?

Thinking of this, His Highness took a sip of wine.

His Royal Highness was also unhappy in his heart, and drank several sips of stuffy wine.

As for the families behind the scenes, their faces are also extremely ugly.

His Royal Highness shook his head and said, "The eldest brother still has the means, third brother, can you still suppress the eldest brother in the future?" ”

"In the past, my father's heart was undecided, and there was still something to do, but now the popularity is very high, how can His Royal Highness the Crown Prince be suppressed by us."

His Royal Highness nodded and said: "I understand, I hope that this time I can really get rid of my old suspicions with my eldest brother, if I offend him, I will have a lot of trouble in the future." ”

"Regardless of this matter, it's still too early to say anything, and the heart is the first. If the prime minister is on our side, and with the support of the ministers of the world, the cabinet will be two against two. In this way, we can also have more say power, and the situation can be maintained. ”

"It's hard to say, but we haven't been able to persuade him to be the prime minister, as long as he refuses, we are helpless.

Now there are more new officials, and the status of the eldest brother in the cabinet is still as stable as Mount Tai. ”

"Not necessarily, this time Wang Xiang's apprentice returned to the city, we might as well persuade him, he has a friendship with us, and he is Wang Xiang's most proud protégé."

"That's one way to do it."

The two looked at His Royal Highness Shao, who returned the salute to the officials, the other party had such a good popularity, and such a reputation among the officials, which they did not expect, thinking of this, the two of them sighed together.

It was a short journey, but at least a few hundred officials congratulated His Highness.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said that the article shocked the minister, and the lower officials have admired it for a long time."

"His Royal Highness the Prince, everyone is looking forward to your positive atmosphere and supporting the Son of Heaven, and I am finally waiting for this day!"

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has finally been able to keep the clouds open and see the moon, and this time he can get the champion of the golden branch to promote the righteousness of the imperial court!"

"Congratulations to Your Highness, Your Highness loves the people like a son and deserves it!"

"His Royal Highness the Prince, His Royal Highness in the court, and the dean outside, the learning of meritorious service is like this, and the lower officials are willing to follow the learning of His Royal Highness the Prince's meritorious service, and practice it for life."

In the face of so many officials congratulating him, His Royal Highness Shao was moved in his heart.

This is 'Don't worry about the road ahead without knowing yourself, who in the world can not know you'.

With the support of his father and the king, and the support of hundreds of officials, his own learning of deeds is changing the support of scholars in the world bit by bit.

He is not alone, many people with lofty ideals are my confidants, and he is full of expectations of people with lofty ideals in the world.

Now that he has been promoted to the dean of Chengcai Academy, it is finally time for him to make a difference, and it is time to show his strength.

So why should he worry that there is no one in front of him to support me?

At this moment, why should I be restrained.

His Royal Highness Shao stopped, his eyes swept over the hundred officials who congratulated him, and he immediately clenched his fists and said, "Thank you for your expectations." In the next talent, often ask yourself what you have learned and what you often do? Whenever I reflect at night, I tell myself that I am living up to the teachings of the sages. What is the Teachings of the Sages? For the sake of the saints, for the eternal peace! ”

"That's a good point."

The officials cheered in unison, and many young officials shed tears of excitement.

The afternoon sun was falling on His Royal Highness Shao's body, and everyone looked up at His Royal Highness the young prince as if it was shining brightly.

At this moment, His Royal Highness Shao couldn't help but be full of pride, what is the mastery, the learning of deeds, what is the opening of peace, and strive to establish the college.

With this firm heart, I will definitely do something!

"Today, please join the princes and do your best for your father and the emperor, and do your best for the people of the world! Thank you very much! ”

His Royal Highness Shao made a gesture to everyone, and then walked forward.

The atmosphere suddenly reached the most enthusiastic time, and the cheers were endless.

Hundreds of officials watched His Royal Highness Shao leave, and in their eyes, His Royal Highness Sima Shao, the crown prince, who won the title of Jinke at the age of fifteen, was full of ambition and high spirits.

"Sharpen yourself with articles and inspire people all over the world to read, it seems that the revitalization of the court is just around the corner."

An official said: "Yes, the court is going to have a new atmosphere." ”

An official said: "That's right, with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince here, are you still afraid that you will not be upright?" ”

On the side, Sima Chong said angrily: "What is it to continue to learn from the saints and open peace for all generations, this is also what he Sima Shao can say?" ”

"It's so arrogant, I don't know how thick the sky is."

Sima Huan smiled bitterly, and the officials next to the two of them went to congratulate the eldest brother, so they were not afraid of others hearing these words.

......

His Royal Highness stepped forward: "Is there something on your mind?" ”

Gu Chang smiled and disguised: "No." ”

After eating, they walked around as they pleased, and came to the cattle market of the bazaar.

When I came to a horse buying circle, a groom had already greeted me: "Guest officer, are you here to buy horses?" You've come to the right place, we have some of the best horses in the whole market, pick and choose. ”

The man went to the manger, first observed the color of the horses, and after sifting through them, he put his ears to the qualified horses one by one, and listened to the sounds coming from the horses.

This is the listening bone method in Soma, Sima Shao said secretly, it seems that the guy in front of him is specially used for Soma.

The groom was always by his side and did not dare to disturb.

After about a quarter of an hour, the man finished Soma, and sifted out the remaining five horses, each of which he lifted up its hooves to look at.

The maid Nan'er said a lot: "Your Highness, I remember that you seem to be able to Soma too?" ”

Gu Chang looked at His Royal Highness: "Oh, Your Highness, will you also be a horse?" ”

His Royal Highness Shao said modestly: "It will only be a little." ”

A hint of surprise flashed in Gu Chang's eyes, and he said with a surprised expression: "Your Highness actually knows how to meet horses, so why don't Your Highness try the remaining horses." He wanted to see Sima Shao's skills.

His Royal Highness Shao didn't feel that he wanted to show it in his heart, and nodded solemnly: "Okay!" ”

"Oh, then Your Highness, you can try it, pick a good horse!" There was more ridicule in the tone.

His Royal Highness Shao leisurely walked to an old horse lying on the edge of the trough and called the groom: "How much is this horse?" ”

The old horse's hair was yellow and withered, and in some places it was peeling off to reveal red-speckled skin, and he was lying on his laurel, his eyes open and closed, lifeless.

The groom laughed and said, "Why don't you do that?" Childe, you can pick a horse in the horse pen at will, and this horse should be given away, do you think it's okay? ”

His Royal Highness Shao took out a little silver and slapped it in the groom's hand, pointing to the old horse: "I want this one, you can just give it to me." ”

The horseman looked at Gu Chang in embarrassment, and he and the maid Nan'er turned their faces away at the same time.

Gu Chang said secretly: "Your Highness won't look away." ”

The maid Nan'er didn't dare to refute, she actually thought so in her heart.

"Tsk, such an old horse, the whole body seems to be sick, who else wants?"

"Not only that, this young man's brain is caught in the door, right? Give back so much silver, this horse looks sick, and I don't want to give it away. ”

"I don't think this young man is here to buy horses, but to show us that he is rich."

"If you really have money, give each of us a little, and we will be grateful to you!"

Those who watched the horses in the horse pen saw that there was something fresh to see, gathered around and laughed at Sima Shao.

Gu Chang and the maid Nan'er stood a little farther away.

His Royal Highness Shao didn't care at all, and asked the groom indifferently: "Do you buy this horse or not?" ”

The groom snorted, neither saying that he would not sell, nor that he would not sell.

His Royal Highness Shao took out a few taels of silver and slapped them on the palm of the groom's hand, and asked, "Do you have a place to sell wine here?" ”

The groom said, "I have wine here." ”

The maid Nan'er couldn't help but stretch her neck: "What does Your Highness want to drink." ”

Gu Chang also said with curiosity on his face: "I don't know what tricks His Highness is going to do." ”

Quietly turned his head sideways to look at His Highness Shao.

His Royal Highness Shao followed the groom to the other side of the horse pen, took out a few taels of silver from his body, and bought a large vat of rice bran wine made by the groom.

A cylinder weighs 100 pounds.

Under the suspicious gaze of everyone, Sima Shao's horse came to the front of the rice bran wine.

"I said, Childe, are you going to let the horse drink the bar?" One guy laughed uncontrollably.

"It's the first time I've heard that horses are going to drink, and I really laughed at it."

"This is also a detail of people showing off their wealth, if they don't show off their wealth, what is the difference between people living and salted fish?"

The mud seal of the jar was slammed open, and the horse staggered to his feet, stuck his head into the jar, and drank greedily from the wine.

In the blink of an eye, the old horse had drunk half of the wine, and he burped and let out a long neigh.

The horses near the ring all flexed their forelimbs and shivered.

The old horse shook his head, the wine on his head spilled, and everyone looked at the old horse's eyes, which were as black as jewels, blazing, where is what an old horse should look like.

"This ...... Does this really have to be a sick horse? A spectator stammered.

"What is the origin of this young man, he actually has such a vision, and he fell in love with such a wonderful horse at a glance."

"At first, I thought the horse was really just a sick horse."

The spectators admired His Royal Highness Shao's Soma technique and admired it.

The horses let out a loud cry and were very happy.

His Royal Highness patted the horse's head with satisfaction: "You will follow me in the future." ”

The horse rubbed his head affectionately against His Highness Shao's chest, and a large piece of wet clothes was on it, and the spectators sighed and marveled at the psychic horse.

......

Several people rode on different horses, from the west gate of Jiankang City, staggering all the way to the outside of the city.

It is the cold winter, and the sporadic cold-tolerant plants along the road grow green branches, and the post road is full of pedestrians.

The maid Nan'er saw His Royal Highness riding on a horse, with a stable body and proper horse control, as if she was good at riding a horse, and said in surprise: "Your Highness, you can't see it, you can still ride a horse?" ”

His Royal Highness smiled: "I have a lot of things." ”

"I said, why don't we compete to see whose horse can run faster, do you think it's okay?"

His Royal Highness Shao's young man's heart suddenly revealed: "Okay, good." ”

When he first whipped the horse's buttocks, the horse was like an arrow from the string, leaving the maid Nan'er far behind.

"Hey, how do you say run? I haven't shouted to start the game yet. The maid Nan'er shouted behind her.

His Highness Shao could no longer hear.

When the maid Nan'er caught up with His Royal Highness, she was so tired that she was sweating profusely, and gasped: "I didn't expect Your Highness to have such good riding skills, but it really impressed me." ”

His Royal Highness Shao had already slowed down the horse and rode with the maids Nan'er, Gu Chang and others.

"Do you have to compare?" His Highness asked.

"No, that's impossible." The maid Nan'er hit the horse and ran to the front first.
