"Actually," Liu Ying met Zhang Yan's shocked gaze and said leisurely, "This place in the Northland is also very good. If Ah Yan really made up her mind, I would have no choice but to run at both ends of Shanan and Chang'an. ”

……

"I heard the world of color, and I was stupid.

Hand in hand or laughing, this is the most fun.

I have received the law of heaven, and God can be separated.

Those who hold on to the coming, report the news of Iraq. ”

When Zhang Yan was full of entanglements over his previous declaration, Liu Ying was calm.

This is in that half a month of day and night, when he met the three princes and nine kings in the Lin Guang Palace, and dealt with the backlog of political affairs at the same time, when he was extremely tired, he occasionally raised his head to rest, and saw a crape myrtle flower blooming in front of the palace, and Ah Yan's appearance floated through his mind, so he wrote a poem.

From childhood to adulthood, he has maintained a gentle image towards Ah Yan, and in his heart he regards her as a younger who needs to be pampered, and he has never faced her with his other side. But in fact, as a man who has passed the age of the crown and has been an emperor for several years, how can he be just a moderate and moderate person?

The candle flame danced slightly on the bookcase, the lion's head bronze paperweight pressed a large pine flower note, and Liu Ying held the purple frost pen and wrote the word "Yan" on it.

It is said that Ah Yan was just born, and she laughed more often than she cried, so she was named a Yan character, which means smiling and also contains the beautiful hope of less sorrow and more laughter in this life. Yan is a rather beautiful word, just like Ah Yan's rippling eyes and crimson lips.

Later, he found that in fact, as long as he let go of the burden in his heart, it was very easy to fall in love with Ah Yan. It was difficult to ask for Ah Yan's understanding to turn back.

A woman's heart. He never understood. Now, he recalled Chen Hu's appearance, but found that it was gradually blurred, not to mention the concubines in Weiyang Palace that he had never really valued. Ah Yan's heart should be the most obscure one here, he didn't understand the warm and innocent love back then, and now he doesn't understand the unhesitating decision.

But he stood in this place, although he couldn't accurately guess what Ah Yan was thinking, he didn't feel much hesitation. It's just because I've determined my mind. Well, just go all the way down.

Not to mention. He has spent a lot of effort these days, and it is not without a little gain to accompany Ah Yan. From Ah Yan's cold and silent refusal at the beginning. By now, the impulsive and enthusiastic emotional reaction has made things much better. At least, Ah Yan still has mood swings because of him, which proves that she still cares about him.

Late at night. Xu Huan handed over the day's work, and when he passed under the verandah and returned to the guest room, he unexpectedly saw Liu Ying pacing out of the west wing wearing a Xuanhu big coat, buckled his sword and bowed down and said, "Master." ”

"Get up."

Under the cover of the night, Liu Ying asked softly. "Madame, how are you doing these days?"

Xu Huan replied respectfully, "Madame, everything is fine." Ding Weiri went out for a ride. Wu Shen went to Zhou's house to visit friends. ”

"The Zhou family?"

"It is Zhou Yue's mother's family that I met last time by the Fu River, her father is the third elder of Shanan County, she herself is seventeen years old this year, it is said that she is a talented girl, and her wife met a few months ago python wife. Good friendship. ”

Liu Ying's face softened, and she heard Xu Huan continue to talk about Zhang Yan's related things. The corners of the lips curl up in a subtle arc.

……

Outside the east gate, a couple was saying goodbye to the roadside, not far away, Zhang Yan led the horse to stand on the bank of the Fuhe River, quietly watching the fish in the river swim happily, and the face was quiet.

Han Dongge's eyes turned red, "You and I haven't been together for a long time, and I should have followed my husband." It's just that there is news from home that my father is seriously ill and on the couch, and I, as a daughter, can only go back to serve the sick. He is a gentleman, and he will go to his hometown to pick me up early. ”

Meng Guan held the sword, and his always cold face was also a little moved, he refused to have a child's affection, but said lightly, "I can't leave here, but I asked Brother He to escort me." Brother He is righteous, and his skills are also tight. You...... Cherish all the way. ”

Han Dongge nodded, his hands stroked his abdomen intentionally or unintentionally, he wanted to say something, but he didn't say it after all, and changed his tone and advised, "Husband is out alone, pay attention to take care of yourself, don't work too hard, remember to eat on time when you are hungry, and buy new clothes frequently......"

"I know."

……

Han Dongge wiped away his tears and walked over to Zhang Yan, "Big lady, you ...... Got your mind? ”

Zhang Yan came back to her senses, the corners of her lips hooked up helplessly, dyed with a little bitter determination, "I have no other way." ”

Han Dongge looked at the girl in front of him tenderly and pityingly. She still remembers the first time she met the girl in Baqiao, she was as young and vivid as the young leaves of the March branches, and she was always with the tall and gentle man beside her. Between the corners of the eyes and eyebrows, there is love. At that time, Zhang Yan must have loved him.

"I don't understand you—" she said softly, "I can't speak, but I think it's a very lucky thing to meet a man who cherishes me in this world." But why do you want to push such luck outward? ”

Zhang Yan was stunned, the corners of her mouth curled bitterly, as if every onlooker hoped that she could bend over and accept this seemingly perfect relationship. But after all, the matter of feelings is just like people drinking water and knowing themselves. "I don't know if I'm necessarily right to do that."

In the northland of July, the grass was green, and she looked at the end of the plain, and said bleakly, "But I know, let me bow my head and forgive me like this, I can't do it." ”

The dust and sand of the grassland obscured the backs of distant passers-by. Zhang Yan looked into the distance, leaving Han Dongge's last advice in the wind, "Ah Yan, you are too proud." I don't know if such pride is good for you. But you have to think clearly. Otherwise, if you regret it in the future, you really can't go back. ”

……

Herod of the Flying Cloud hissed and stepped on the ground, refusing to go any further. Liu Ying was stunned and soothed, it gradually quieted down, but it still used its front hooves to shave for a while, swaying from side to side with its chewing head.

Liu Ying couldn't help but have doubts in her heart.

Feiyun was a horse given to him by his father when he was a teenager.,Raised by his side since he was a child.,Although he has a big temper.,But it's very tame to himself.,Now it's so restless.,I really don't know why.。

"Get out of the way."

A man's arrogant voice was heard in the distance, and the people along the road screamed to avoid it. A fiery color rushed along the avenue, and the bearded man saw an opportunity to turn on the horse's back and use all his strength to hold the horse's reins, but he still couldn't control the neighing of the horse under his crotch. The opponent was difficult, but the big man was not angry but happy, and laughed loudly, "It's really a good horse." It's not in vain that I spent most of the month guarding in a deserted place. I finally caught you. ”

The horse's coat was shiny like a flame, and it was only on its four hooves. There was a circle of snow-like fluff, which was eye-catching, and he raised his head and hissed, and fluttered and paced with all his might. You want to shake off the enemies on your back. Showing a blind eye, one person and one horse were deadlocked, no one could subdue anyone, and after a while, the family members behind caught up and hugged each other. I tried my best to restrain the horse. The big man jumped down from the horse and made a gesture to the people around him, "The fierce horse is not tamed. made a mistake on the road, and the family did not control it, which disturbed everyone, and Bu made amends here. ”

There was a burst of laughter from the crowd, as no one was hurt. There was no pursuit.

Liu Ying calmed the restless Feiyun beside him, and turned back to instruct Shen Mo. "Go and inquire, the details of this surname Bu."

"No."

……

"Bu Shi is the biggest horse merchant in the clouds." Shen Mo spent most of the day investigating the news, and reported back, "Everyone says that this man has a grotesque nature, but he does have a set of horse breeding and horse training, so the horse farm is running well." He walked on the Han-Hungarian border all year round. It's kind of bold and righteous, and it's worth handing over. ”

Liu Ying nodded, holding a black glass chess piece between the index finger and middle finger of her right hand, muttered for a moment, and fell gently, "Arrange for Ming'er to go to the Bujia Racecourse." ”

Bujia's horse farm is located on the grassland in the west of Yunzhong City, Liu Ying looked up on the back of Feiyun, and saw that all the eyes were green pastures, and groups of horses galloped on the horse farm, sometimes stopped and lowered their heads to graze, most of them had a kind of Central Plains horses that were difficult to have.

When he arrived at the gate of the racecourse, Guan Sheng stepped forward and handed over the post, "My family Langjun specially came to visit the owner of the horse farm today, and by the way, I want to see the horses on the racecourse." ”

Liu Ying waited in the living room for a while before being ushered into the central hall. There were two food tables on the hall. The bearded man I saw the day before yesterday sat on the main seat, holding the knight in his left hand, and poured the wine into his mouth. On the left and right, each leaning on two beautiful concubines, smiling and persuading them to drink.

Bu Shi was drunk, pointed to the opponent and sat on the couch, and said, "Sit." "Free-spirited.

Liu Ying smiled, lifted the hem of her robe, and sat down.

"Lu Langjun," Bu Shi bowed his hand roughly, "I am a rough person, I only love horses on weekdays, and I can't learn the style of a noble child." If you have offended, please forgive me. ”

"The master of the field is polite." Liu Ying smiled faintly.

"Is Lu Langjun here to see the horses?"

"yes." Liu Ying admitted, "I want to buy a horse for Uchiko, as long as it is a divine horse, the price is not a problem." ”

"Well said." Bu Shi snorted, "We don't have anything else in the racecourse, only the most horses." It will definitely satisfy you. ”

In the spacious and clean stables, separated by a long railing, more than a dozen horses are lined up at a time, all of which are rare divine horses. "Isn't there a better horse?"

Bu Shi narrowed his eyes and asked, "What kind of horse does Lu Langjun want?" ”

"I heard that the owner of the divination field lost a red horse in Shanan a few days ago, and it took more than a dozen people to restrain it?"

"It turns out that Lang Jun also came for the rouge horse." Bu Shi showed a look that was really like this.

"There are often wild horses on the Yanzhao border, and this rouge horse is one of the best among the wild horses. I took dozens of good hands and waited at the border for several months before finally lassing it, although it is wild and untamable, but because the divine horse is extraordinary, it has not returned to the clouds, and many people want to buy it back. Even Meng Yuanjun was also a little tempted. In this way, why do I think I want to sell it to you? ”

(Note: Han called the county Taishou as the envoy, and "Mo Shangsang" has a certificate.) Taishou has a very high status in this county, and is somewhat similar to the Emperor of the Earth. At this time in history, Yunzhong County was too shou for Meng Shu. ）

Liu Ying smiled slightly, and said calmly, "The owner of the field is a strange commodity to live in, and it is the most normal thing to attract people from all over the world. But as long as the rouge horse is not unsold, if the horse is still going to be sold, I can't think of any reason why the owner of the house should not sell it to me. ”

The tone of these words was so great that Bu Shi was startled and looked at the young man sitting opposite him again. He was only twenty-three or fourteen years old, wearing a dark purple deep coat, and although the fabric looked ordinary, it was actually Chen Liu's brocade. The face is not middle-upper, but the bearing of words and deeds reveals a rare self-control, which can only be infiltrated by living in splendid wealth for a long time.

Any businessman who has done business to a certain point is not completely ignorant of politics. Bu Shi knows that this year is the year of the change of guards in various places. A month ago, the county magistrate ordered the thirteen new imperial historians in the Imperial History Temple to go to various parts of the Han Dynasty, and the new imperial historian who came to the north was surnamed Lu. And the letter handed in by Lu Langjun is written on the payment of someone in the Imperial History Mansion - even if it is not Lu Yushi himself, it should be his relatives and subordinates.

And the white horse he brought was really a horse that was no less handsome than the rouge horse, and it was even more rare to tame psychism, which should have been raised since childhood.

Bu Shi laughed, "Dare to ask Lu Langjun, can the Zunfu have a relationship with Empress Dowager Lu?" ”

Liu Ying was stunned and smiled, "What if there is?" What if not? However, speaking of which, I did drink with Lihou. ”

He smiled indifferently, but Bu Shi saw a hint of pride in his gaze. I can't help but value this man more and more in my heart.

He didn't show his face, but he groaned in his heart.

Speaking of which, the official rank of the Imperial Supervisor itself is not large, only 600 stones, but once the envoy is sent to the place, because he has the right to supervise, he can interfere in all the political affairs of a county, and he can go straight to the heavens, and even the county guards of 2,000 stone high-ranking officials must be jealous and respectful. What's more, to be able to have a divine horse like Shicai's white horse in the imperial capital Chang'an, and not be coveted by others, requires not only financial resources, but also strength.

Since this Lu Langjun can be so proud, he should have the capital to be proud.

Although Meng Zhijun took a fancy to the divine horse of the rouge horse, he was not very satisfied that it was a horse. High-ranking officials who are born as generals naturally appreciate stallions more. On the contrary, it was this Lu Langjun, because he was riding for his wife, and he was more satisfied with the horse.

Bu Shi's plan has been decided, and he smiled, "In this way, I will ask Lu Langjun to go with me to watch the horse." ”

The rouge horse stood in a separate stable, still very nervous, and restlessly stepped on the snow hooves, neighing through the stall. Liu Ying patted its mane, turned around and asked, "How much does the master offer?" ”

Since you want to be human, you have to do it thoroughly. Bu Shihao said angrily, "Isn't it just a horse, my friendship with Brother Lu, I don't have to pay, I'll give it to you." ”

Liu Ying was a little surprised, and said, "I can't buy a horse in Xiabucai." ”

"Naturally, it wasn't given to Brother Lu for nothing." Bu Shi smiled meaningfully, "I look, my brother's white horse is also very powerful?" If my brother breeds a rouge horse with him in the future, gives birth to a foal in the future, and gives me two horses, it will be considered as paying for today's horse. One for two, I still earned it. ”

Liu Ying smiled slightly, no longer shirked, and stood at the door of the racecourse to say goodbye to Bu Shi. "Brother Bu is affectionate, and the younger brother dares not to forget."

"Brother Lu's words are out of sight," Bu Shi said proudly, patting his chest, "If you still regard me as a friend, if you are so idle, you will never mention it again." ”

Liu Ying smiled bitterly, although he didn't hate the habits of such people in the rivers and lakes, he still couldn't empathize with them.

He was about to say his farewell, but he heard the sound of panicked horses' hooves galloping from a distance, Xu Huan climbed off the horse with a roll, and said on the ground, "Master,......" In the summer, the body lying on the ground trembled,

"Madame is gone."
