Chapter 28: Autumn Wai
Just when Gu Fenghua received the news from his master, Ye Yanqi in Ruyi Building also received a message: the remaining two still have no news, and some people have been looking for these two people recently.
The remaining two people who didn't see anyone alive or dead couldn't see their bodies, in fact, Ye Yanqi had been looking for a long time.
However, because the battle line dragged on too long, he reduced his manpower and slowly tried to find it, and now someone is looking for it, and I am afraid that there will be changes.
So he ordered that more men be sent to find out the two men first, and to find out who was looking for them.
The golden wind is blowing to the end unhurriedly, and the triennial autumn siege is about to begin.
Autumn Wai has always been held once a year, it is the time for the good sons and daughters of the Great Yan to show their talents, if they can come out on top, they can get the emperor's blue eyes, and they will be on the rise.
When His Majesty first ascended the throne, hunting was very prosperous, because it was the Queen's favorite activity, and it is said that the royal hunting ground was also the place where His Majesty and the Queen became acquainted.
It's just that after the emperor and queen lost peace, this activity was changed to a triennial.
If the banquet is the battlefield of the women of the capital, then Qiuwei is the place of competition for the men of the capital.
Although His Majesty emphasizes literature and suppresses martial arts, and there is no longer any use for winning in Qiuwei, but the events of riding and shooting polo can very much show the handsome demeanor of men.
And the families of officials with heads and faces in the capital gathered here, which is simply a large-scale pro-protection media scene, so Qiuwei is still the most anticipated event.
Many people still remember the last Qiuwei, the person who won the first place was Ye Yan'an, the sixth prince who was only eighteen years old at the time, the emperor and the concubine were overjoyed, and everyone was rewarded.
If nothing else, this year should be the same.
After all, apart from this much-loved prince, who dares to show his martial arts in front of the emperor?
On this day, the sky was slightly bright, and the officials and royal relatives entered the palace with the emperor three bows and nine knocks, and then followed the emperor's jade chariot to the paddock in a mighty way, and the carriage of the family followed at the end.
Ye Yanqi was inconvenient with his legs and feet, so he got into the carriage directly and walked with Gu Fenghua.
I saw Gu Fenghua wearing a narrow sleeved short jacket with blue lotus purple, a spiral skirt with front and rear slits for easy riding, and narrow pants of the same color, riding boots on his feet, and the black green silk was tied high with red silk, dressed in a peugeot women's riding costume, looking high-spirited.
How many years has there been no woman dressed like this in Beijing?
Ten or twenty years?
Nowadays, most of the ladies go to the paddock with exquisite makeup, complicated long skirts, playing with pots, and sitting upright to watch.
Gu Fenghua is ready to show his skills like this?
After thinking about it, Ye Yanqi frowned and asked, "Are you going to ride and shoot?" ”
"Isn't Qiu Wei just going to ride and shoot? It's been a long time since I've been able to ride a horse, so of course I'm going to take my chances. If it weren't for you, I would have been eager to ride a horse. Fenghua replied with a smile.
In fact, she knew that nowadays the ladies don't ride and shoot when they go to the paddock.
But she studied the rules specifically and did not stipulate that women should not be allowed to ride archery.
It's just that the people in the capital are all human spirits, and they figure out the emperor's tastes clearly, so there is a clear boundary between men and women.
And when she first entered the capital, she was ignorant and fearless, and it was understandable that she crossed the line.
Anyway, I don't know if I know.
Ye Yanqi's face changed, and he was about to scold her for not going, but she knew in her heart that she would not listen, and at this time, there was no bargaining chip in her hand to ask her to keep to herself, so she was silent.
In the past ten years, step by step, although it has been difficult, everything is under control.
But after marrying Gu Fenghua, Ye Yanqi faintly felt that some things seemed to be out of control.
Let's just see how good she is!
The carriage first sent Ye Yanqi to the paddock palace, and then sent Fenghua directly to the paddock.
The blue sky is verdant, the sky is high and the ground is wide, and the elegance that jumped out of the carriage suddenly felt a burst of comfort.
Everyone first found their seats step by step, and began to walk around and talk before the emperor arrived.
The most popular place is the Chen family, where there is an endless stream of visitors and laughter.
The Xia family originally had three golden flowers of the right age, and it has always been the most popular family among women. Although one is now a concubine of others and is not qualified to attend this kind of occasion, the remaining two should also be hot.
But the strange thing is that Mrs. Xia didn't attend this time, only Xia Tiange and her sister Xia Ruoyun of the same age came, so the Xia family was no longer lively that day.
Fenghua said in his heart: Could it be that Xia Ruoxue's incident hit Mrs. Xia too hard? Whatever, it's good that the song is here.
Tingge felt Fenghua's gaze, raised the teacup from afar, and drank it in the air.
At this time, a palace man came to this place and announced loudly: "The pot throwing begins." ”
The game of pot throwing is to hold the arrow feather and throw it into the pot in front of you. Like archery, this requires good accuracy, but distance and strength are not at all the same level as archery.
The pitcher in Qiuwei is a side dish before the official start of the competition, for the young ladies and ladies to feel the fun of the competition.
Because of this, the game of pitching pots, which is not very new, has become popular again in the world.
The women walked to the pitching pot in twos and threes, the flowers were full of flowers, and the warblers and swallows were so lively.
Where is this going to exercise? It's almost better than beauty.
Fenghua muttered in her heart, and followed the female officer to the pitching field.
However, she just wanted to talk to Qingge, and was not interested in this kind of little game.
After finding the song, the two stood arm in arm and whispered in an inconspicuous corner.
The phoenix eyes of the song flashed with a light that had never been seen before, and she said in Fenghua's ear: "My aunt's revenge has been avenged." ”
A hint of surprise flashed on Fenghua's face, "So Mrs. Xia didn't arrive today, it's ......"
"I found the grandmother next to A-Niang before, she not only said that I was pushed into the water on purpose by Xia Ruoxue, but also spit out that the poisonous woman forced her to do her hands and feet in A-Niang's medicine, causing A-Niang to stay in bed all the time. During this time, I used some means, and the poisonous woman was going crazy, and all the dirty things she had done before were confessed. ”
As he spoke, the corners of his mouth went up, but his voice was full of sadness.
Sometimes, the truth is important, but the moment the truth is revealed, it doesn't seem to matter at all.
Because the truth can be revealed, but death cannot be resurrected.
"It's just that I put this pile in front of my father, and he only cared about being angry, scolding the poisonous woman for how ruthless, but he refused to give my mother a word of apology, I ...... How can you let him go! ”
The more he spoke, the quieter he became, but Fenghua still listened to it sincerely, and a slight invisible fluctuation flashed on his face.
She was not shocked that she didn't even let go of her father, but she was surprised by the tenacity and strength of her heart, and she was distressed that a weak girl had experienced the pain of rebirth.
"Pour the song, don't carry it alone, you still have me." Fenghua held Qinge's hand tightly, trying to give her some strength.
"You don't have to worry about me, just do what you want to do, that's so important......"
"Is the seventh sister-in-law wearing this body for horseback riding? It's so pretty! I'm going to wear riding clothes too! ”
Suddenly, a little princess pointed at Gu Fenghua and shouted in a milky voice, interrupting the sisters' chat.
The nurse hurriedly covered the little princess's mouth and whispered: "Ninth princess, little ancestor, don't talk too much." ”
At this time, everyone's eyes were attracted to Fenghua's body.
The women are heroic and sassy, and they have a special bearing, some are sincerely envious, and some are disdainful.
"The Seventh Princess's body is really extraordinary and heroic!"
"It's just a pot, can you be armed from head to toe?"
Chen Lingxiu, who was originally dressed in orange and red, was far ahead in the pitching pot and was the focus of everyone, but he was suddenly robbed of the limelight by Gu Fenghua, and he was ten thousand unhappy in his heart.
She walked over and said to Fenghua: "The Seventh Princess's outfit, I don't know if you think you're going to take the lead?" ”
Fenghua didn't want to back down, "Why not?" ”
