Chapter 33: Go to the barracks with Zhao Zhen
Wen House.
Wen Jin's room.
Wen Jin was changing clothes, changed into a silver military uniform, and was sorting out the details.
"General, a lotus banquet was held in the palace, and an invitation was specially sent." The butler of the Wen Mansion walked in, spoke respectfully, and handed over the burgundy invitation.
Wen Jinshi just glanced at it lightly and didn't take over.
"Let it go, I'll go to the barracks today and come back in the evening, so you don't have to leave me food." As he spoke, he picked up his scarf and saber beside him.
The butler half-bent respectfully and watched him walk out of the room.
Wen Jinshi had just walked to the door of the Wen Mansion, but he didn't expect to hear the voice of the crown prince Zhao Zhen.
"Is it a lonely coincidence? General Wen is going to the barracks? ”
Before he finished speaking, Zhao Zhen had already walked in from outside the door, followed by two guards with knives.
Wen Jin frowned silently, and made a military salute calmly: "I don't know that His Highness is coming, and the minister is not far away." ”
Zhao Zhen waved his hand disappreciably, and when he looked at Wen Jin, who was dressed in a cool costume, he smiled and took two steps closer.
Repeat the question: "Where is General Wen going?" ”
Wen Jin was neither humble nor arrogant: "After returning to Beijing for many days, the minister has not yet gone to the military camp to comfort the soldiers, and today is free, so he wants to go over." ”
Zhao Zhen nodded approvingly, and reached out to pat Wen Jinshi's horse.
He tilted his head, with an unpredictable smile, and asked flatly: "It's better to choose a day than to hit the day, can General Wen take Gu with him?" The lonely prince is also a prince who should comfort and visit all the hard-working soldiers. ”
Without waiting for Wen Jin to speak, he said to himself: "You don't need anything else, just give a lonely horse." In addition, help me send someone back to the house to inform me and ask someone to send more wine and food to the barracks. ”
Having said that, there is obviously no room for refusal.
When Wen Jin saw this, he could only follow his words and instruct the housekeeper behind him: "Prepare a horse for His Royal Highness the Prince, and then send someone to the Prince's Mansion to inform him." ”
Butler: "Yes, General." ”
Soon, the servant came with another horse.
Zhao Zhen took the reins from the servant's hand, reached out and touched the docile horse, and then stepped on the saddle with one foot, and the posture of getting on the horse was very chic.
"General Wen, let's go."
Wen Jinshi nodded, held the horse's back with one hand, stepped on the saddle, raised his long legs, and got on the horse in a clean and handsome posture.
He pulled the reins, made the horse turn its head, and with a slight kick, the horse stepped out of the house.
Zhao Zhen followed.
The military camp was stationed five miles outside the city, near the canal of the capital.
There were many people in the streets of the city, and it was not suitable to ride horses and whips, so the two of them rode slowly side by side until they went out of the city gate.
Zhao Xun hooked the corners of his mouth, with a bit of conceit: "General Wen, let's compete to see who arrives at the barracks first?" ”
"Yes, Your Highness." Wen Jin can not shirk.
As soon as his words fell, Zhao Zhen kicked hard and shouted: "Drive." The horse babbled and ran.
Seeing this, Wen Jin followed closely, and neither of the two of them admitted defeat, and they rushed to chase after me.
"His Royal Highness the Prince, the minister is one step ahead." Wen Jinshi looked at Zhao Zhen, and after dropping this sentence, he walked away.
When Zhao Zhen saw that he was thrown behind by Wen Jinshi, his face turned cold, and he waved vigorously with his horsewhip to chase Wen Jinshi with all his might.
The reason why he mentioned horse racing was to let Wen Jinshi see clearly his Zhao Zhen's strength.
also let Wen Jinshi understand: It is a mistake to think highly and be excessively conceited in front of him.
He just wanted to frustrate Wen Jin's sharpness and make him understand that he was his master and the master of this country.
It's a pity.
Wen Jin didn't have the spare time to accompany him here to do all these bells and whistles.
The barracks is his other home, and the soldiers are his relatives, and he just wants to see his relatives soon.
