Chapter 12 Tang Yingxin
came out of the other garden, and was waiting for the three of Zuo Qin to ask for the right prime minister's golden order.
The four of them went to the racecourse.
The horse farm was outside the palace, not far away, and was managed by the director of the Horse Division, a six-rank official.
The horse farm is very large, and there are thousands of good horses, which are exclusively for the royal court.
The director is an old man, more than half a hundred years old, and the affairs of officialdom are left and right.
Seeing the right prime minister's golden order in Zuo Qin's hand, he knew that the identity of the comer was noble, and he didn't dare to offend.
"My Benyuan Racecourse is a thousand miles of good horses, Xiangguo Gongzi has taken a fancy to it, as long as it is registered, it can be used. The old man said.
"Alright, you go down. Chu Yulin commanded.
Seeing that Chu Yulin was wearing a tiger robe, the man didn't dare to offend, so Wei Nuo retreated.
"Boss, you choose first. "Yang belongs to Gong Dao.
The horse farm is for free-range breeding, and all kinds of horses are running, drinking water, or grazing, and many more.
"Let's pick together. Liu Xu said.
Everyone watched and did not retract their vision for a long time.
Soma is like a person, and it is exquisite.
Only those with the right personality can control and then exert their abilities.
Such as.
If you want to go over the mountains and mountains, and travel for a long distance, it is better to take the thin and slender jujube red horse; if you want to wear a horse on the battlefield and go into battle to kill the enemy, you should use the original horse that is abundant in the Qiang land; and if you want to run thousands of miles and gallop the world, you should choose the tall and strong green horse.
So the eyes of the four of them were all aimed at Gao Jun's green horse.
It's just that Liu Xu's gaze is different from the other three, and he is looking for it on the periphery.
The horses on the periphery are a little lazy and mostly wandering. This horse generally has its own temperament, and it is difficult to train.
And in the rebellious and difficult training, some have the ability to travel thousands of miles, but more of them are all bad horses that do not make up the climate.
Inferior horses are shoddy, many can't work, and if the vision is poor, they will not be able to distinguish.
However, Liu Xu looked at a black horse for the first time and did not leave it.
Although it is listless and not handsome.
After a while, the four of them were selected, and Liu Xu came out with a short black horse.
"Boss, aren't you joking?" said Chu Yulin.
"Boss, you're not going to ride it to the martial arts exam, are you?" Zuo Qin asked.
"Why not?" asked Liu Xu, serious.
"Boss, would you better change another one?" Yang Gong also advised.
Because Liu Xu's black horse and the green horse of the three of him stood together, they were more than half a meter shorter.
Therefore, it is easy to distinguish the advantages and disadvantages with a clear eye.
"Why don't the four of us try it out on this racecourse?" Liu Xu proposed.
"Don't! If you ride together, wouldn't it be embarrassing if you can't find you when you turn around?" Chu Yulin teased.
Zuo Qin and Yang Gong congratulated.
"That being the case, it is bounded by the Infinity Mountain in the distance. If I lose, I will invite the three of you to drink the best Huadiao wine in Qingyang County. Liu Xu said.
"How many years is Huadiao wine?" Chu Yulin was overjoyed and immediately asked.
"The third world Huadiao wine!" Liu Xu was proud.
When they heard that it was a three-hundred-year-old Huadiao wine, the three of them couldn't calm down.
In this year, even the Ming Emperor can't drink it, and only the Qingyang Palace has it.
"One word is a deal!" the three of them said in unison.
"The son of the world said, three horses are difficult to chase. After saying this, Liu Xu turned over his horse and galloped away.
The three people behind him, because of their self-confidence, were not panicked, and they also galloped after getting on the horse.
However, the world was unexpected, and as a result of Liu Xu's jokes, the three horses were indeed difficult to chase.
Especially later, it was difficult for Yu to catch up.
For the sake of three hundred years of Huadiao wine, the three of them can't wait to give birth to wings.
But from beginning to end, the three of them had no chance to get close to Liu Xu.
The three of them were very depressed, because Liu Xu's short black horse was like a cannon, a cannon for thousands of miles, and a shot out of control.
After a period of running, the whistling Liu Xu shouted to the three people behind him, "My horse has a big temper, it doesn't wait for anyone." ”
What do you mean?
It is undoubtedly a blatant irony.
And when the three of them arrived at Wuji Mountain, Liu Xu had already been lying on the grass and resting for a long time.
......
The next day, on the day of the Zhengding martial arts assessment, one of the masters, the national master Taifu, came in person.
In the Jixia martial arts field, the moment an old man in Chinese clothes appeared, the students in Jixia were boiling.
It was not the voice that boiled, but the eyes, and everyone's eyes were hot admiration.
Because the person at the moment is one of the few strongest people in the Ming Dynasty.
Everyone in the world knows that the Ming Dynasty has three princes and excellent strength. You can reclaim the sea alone, you can cut the mountain with a sword, you can walk a hundred miles, and you can live in a storm.
In a moment, he stepped forward to the top platform, looked at the students, and began, "Although the appearance of the country is fixed, it is not stable. Not to talk about it, look around the countries, eyeing the tiger. In terms of internal worries alone, the rivers and lakes are divided, the major forces are constantly strife, and although the famous sects are jealous of the imperial court, they are not afraid. I study the children of the palace and run outside, and sometimes I have the hatred of being poisoned. Six years ago, the old man discussed with the second prince that the children of the palace should focus on martial arts, so there is a martial arts test at the end of the season. As we all know, I like martial arts, and people call me martial arts idiots, so I will personally hold each quarterly exam. This is the case in today's world, if I am a genius in the school palace, I will win the fame, and the old man will engrave the sword with his own sword, and the famous holy mountain. And entrusted with chalcedony dew, wash the meridians and purify the veins..."
The old man was full of energy, and although his conversation was extremely gentle, it made people's hearts stirred.
The students under the high stage shouted and were eager to try.
"Tuo's chalcedony dew? Liu Xu was very calm, but he was slightly startled at the moment, and sighed that what Chu Yulin said was true.
"Okay! A good man should be like this, the old man will sit on the holy mountain today and wait for you to come!"
Wow!
The audience was in a louder uproar, with thunderous shouts, and after a while, it didn't stop for a long time.
After the old man in Huayi left, the young master of the prince Fang Cao led the students of the present world to the holy mountain.
The holy mountain is outside the imperial court, when it is called Bailong Mountain, it is the place where the ancestors of the Ming Dynasty are worshipped, and the Taiming Emperor was pardoned as the holy mountain when he ascended the throne.
The holy mountain is extremely high, and there is an ancestral platform in the middle of the height, where the martial arts contest is carried out.
In the three quarterly exams, the ring won the championship at the end, and before that, there were two more than 1,000 miles of riding and archery and bravely climbing the holy mountain.
Under the leadership of their respective young masters, the disciples of Jian Xinzhai left the Ming Emperor's Court from the west gate.
When you go out of the west gate, you can see an abrupt huge mountain.
The mountain was blue, but there was a white dragon entwined, and the white dragon was a cloud that could not be dispersed all year round.
The chief priest of the ceremonial priest divination once said that this cloud and mist is a dragon qi and has the effect of calming the sky.
Trekking, Bailong Mountain was near and far under the gaze, and finally after a while, the children of the school palace came to a big river.
The river, named Yingtian, is not far from the holy mountain. The wind reaches the river and the waves are rolling, but there is also some momentum.
For a while, Liu Xu was stunned, and he had a lot of thoughts.
Because in the early days, the river was not named after the sky.
Its name is Xiaotian, and it was ordered by the king of the previous dynasty, Mei He.
Legend has it that the Jin Emperor Meihe, who first ascended the throne, stepped on a horse and traveled the vast rivers and mountains. When he came to the river, he was tired and stopped.
So he casually asked, "What kind of river is this?"
Approached, he replied, "Not yet famous." ”
When Mei He heard this, he was full of pride, and he was in his prime, so he said: "Let's call filial piety." ”
Listening to it left and right, it was flattering.
The word filial piety is really extraordinary.
Those who have always been in charge of the country have been recognized as the destiny of heaven, so the word filial piety refers to the destiny he performs is the mandate of heaven.
Mei He was very conceited, but unexpectedly, only a few decades later, the Jin Dynasty overturned.
When Yang Zhao, the emperor of Taiming, ascended the throne and rode on a horse like Mei He to see the Daming River, he pointed to the river and said to the left and right, "This should be the Tianhe River is also magnificent." ”
Emperor Ming said that it should be the sky, who in the world dares to be different?
In fact, there is no difference between Yingtian and Xiaotian, they just uphold the mandate of heaven in the same way. But is this destiny upheld for a long time?
No one knows!
Liu Xu sobered up from his thoughts.
"Ying Tian?" the corners of his mouth furrowed, and there were some slight crumbs.
If he could slaughter and exterminate the clan at will, then one day, he would rename the river.
Ying Tianhe to the holy mountain, exactly ten miles. There is a new site on the opposite side of the river, and there are crowds.
The children of the school palace crossed the river lightly, and their respective slaves and maids were waiting.
The slaves were all in good steals, and the tall horses were saddled with leather saddles and hard whips.
Liu Xu arrived, took the soft gold black snake bow, carried the jade green quiver, and led the black pony.
The quiver has 30 arrows inside, and each arrow is engraved with the words Qingyang Shizi.
Because in the next gallop, he will encounter many moving arrow targets, and the minimum standard for assessment is that the arrow will not detach.
Everything was ready, and Liu Xu led his little black horse to the meeting place.
"Boss, it's here!" Chu Yulin greeted.
"Boss!" Zuo Qin said.
Liu Xu galloped over step by step and nodded.
But at this moment, the surroundings suddenly erupted in laughter.
"Prince Qingyang, I don't know what kind of good product your horse is, it is born so majestic?" Wei Qilin led his red-sidedled steed over, and his tone was serious.
"Wei Qilin, you..."Yang Zhigong said angrily.
"Chunyuan Shizi, what's wrong?
"Qilin, what you said is not right. It's an inferior horse, just say it bluntly, the prince of Qingyang can still blame you!" the twelve princes teased.
Wei Qilin is good friends with Wu Zhengxuan, the prince of Pingwang, and he doesn't deal with the twelve princes on weekdays, but today for some reason, he used the word Qilin.
No one cared what he called, but his teasing made some people who didn't dare to laugh laugh one by one.
Although the laughter is not happy, the irony is already very obvious.
Because Liu Xu's little black horse is indeed not handsome.
is also a dark horse, in comparison, the oolong velvet sideburns of the twelve princes on the side are too handsome.
The horse had black sideburns, soft and shiny, like black satin, without any variegation.
It is conceivable that once it gallops away, the velvet temples will roll in the wind, and they will be as majestic as black waves.
"Then according to the words of the Twelve Princes, your oolong velvet sideburns will definitely be able to race my oolong horse?" Liu Xu was not annoyed, but asked.
Riding an oolong foal?
"Boss, your horse's name is so domineering!" Chu Yulin said.
"Hehe..."Yang Zhigong and Zuo Qin also echoed and laughed.
"Hmph, Yang Xuanqing, you dare to take the name of stepping on the dragon!" the Twelve Princes were a little angry.
The Twelve Princes laughed. How did I come up with this name?" Liu Xu said.
"Well, then, do you dare to make a bet with me? If you lose, I'll step you on... The dark horse is cooked. The Twelve Princes said.
"Why don't you dare, but what if you lose?" asked Liu Xu.
"What do you say?"
"I also boiled your oolong horse raw!" Liu Xu was expressionless, not knowing whether he was happy or angry.
Raw boiled oolong velvet sideburns?
That's a horse given by the Ming Emperor!
