Riding the Pheonix Chapter 277: Horse gift
What to do in autumn hunting is also decided by each person.
The military generals showed off their skills, and the civil servants recited poems and wrote poems. As for the extra rich young lady this year, they were led by the imperial concubine and concubine Hui, and a seat was set up nearby.
"Hey, Mingwei!"
Hearing the voice, Mingwei looked up and saw that it was Wei Xiaoan and Fang Jinping, both of whom were also wearing riding attire.
The three of them looked at each other and smiled, and Wei Xiaoan said: "You are going to end up too!"
Mingwei said: "Are you going to stay and be a target for others?"
The two little girls understood and covered their mouths and laughed.
None of the three of them have any intention of becoming a prince's concubine.
Wei Xiaoan knew that she had been abducted, and it would definitely not be her turn. Fang Jinping has many sisters, including her.
If you compete with these people, you might get accidentally injured, you might as well go for a run in the hunting ground!
They are students from Mingcheng Academy. They are skilled in bow and horse. If they don't show off now, how else can they show off?
"Then let's go together!"
Princes and nobles are of course more particular about hunting. There are so many people, so the territory needs to be divided, otherwise if one or two are accidentally injured, it will be a big deal.
Also, what should you do if you encounter large prey? We can't let the nobles fight alone, right? Of course, you have to bring along your servants and generals, lead the hounds, and surround the prey first, and then let the master take action.
The three of them live in one place, which saves manpower and space.
Wei Xiaoan suddenly saw something and said, "Look, will the Wen sisters also end up?"
Mingwei took a look, right? Wen Ying and Wen Rudu are all dressed in riding attire. The two of them had a quarrel yesterday, but now they don't seem to have any differences.
Fang Jinping rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "I know."
"What?"
Fang Jinping pursed his lips and motioned for them to look over there. Isn't the rich lady talking to Concubine Hui the granddaughter of Prime Minister Lu, Lu Shan?
"If I stay, I will definitely compose poems. How can the two idiots compare with the talented women of Lu? Rather than staying and being compared to nothing, it is better to perform differently."
Wei Xiaoan nodded repeatedly: "That makes sense."
It was almost time, and someone from the palace stood up and said, "Ladies, please take your seats. But I don't know how many of you want to go hunting?"
Mingwei and three others walked over.
There are quite a few people who have made the same choice as them, and most of them are the daughters of military commanders.
What surprised Mingwei was that Sun Wei was among them.
Seeing them, Sun Wei nodded, slightly coldly.
Ever since Mingwei gave her the willow whistle, the relationship between the two has entered into a strange tacit understanding.
On the surface, Sun Wei is still so aloof and aloof and doesn't talk to them much. But in terms of schoolwork, Mingwei was often absent, and she helped cover it up.
In short, the willow whistle is worth every penny!
Concubine Pei looked at the young girls in front of her with a smile and said with a smile: "You all want to go hunting?"
Everyone responded in unison.
Concubine Pei agreed: "Good! Who said women are inferior to men? They are rewarded for their prey, how can we be an exception? I promise here that as long as you have harvested, you will all be rewarded!"
The girls were smiling.
Concubine Hui also said: "Since the imperial concubine said so, I might as well join in the fun and add an extra hairpin to each of you."
The girls are happier.
Given their background, they certainly don’t lack that hairpin, but this is a reward from the palace, which represents face.
Even if you don't become a princess, it will be easier to find another marriage with your empress' approval.
Concubine Pei encouraged them a few more words, then waved them to get ready.
Wei Xiaoan stopped Sun Wei and said, "Why don't you stay? They must be composing poems. If you learn well, you might be able to get approval from the empress."
Sun Wei shook his head and whispered: "There are many people and many things to do."
Three people understood it instantly. This is also someone who doesn’t want to be a princess.
Wei Xiaoan looked at Mingwei, then at Fang Jinping, and asked, "How about you come with us? Your family is a civil servant, so you must not have any generals. Hunting requires more than just a bow and a horse."
Sun Wei hesitated for a moment but did not refuse: "Thank you very much."
Fang Jinping hugged her with a smile and joked: "It's such an honor to have the chief of the team with us. I'll blow it when we get back to the academy!"
The four girls chatted and laughed and went to lead the horses.
Concubine Pei noticed Mingwei's horse, frowned slightly, and gave some instructions to the palace attendants.
The palace man responded and left.
After a while, she came back with Yang Shu.
Yang Shu was also dressed in riding attire today, carrying a riding whip. He was already outstanding and tall, and his appearance made him even more heroic. He had a majestic and majestic look that was different from that of a frail young man, which made the ladies on the side blush.
Looking at this Young Master Yang, who was of high enough background, he thought to himself, it’s a pity that he is a man who suppresses his wife’s life and is in an embarrassing situation. With such a face, it’s really a bit...
The young lady with a lower family background has her thoughts active. They had little chance of choosing the princess, so they came here just to make an impression in front of the empress. Young Master Yang is an excellent target for them.
Being born in the Hou family, and being favored by the Holy Spirit, it is a little embarrassing, but it is always much better than my own. As for the one who shortened his wife's life, maybe it was someone else's life that was shortened? If you can find such a husband who is pleasing to the eye, your life will be worth it.
Concubine Pei was also very proud when she looked at him. After sizing it up~IndoMTL.com~ asked him: "Are you going to end up?"
Yang Shu smiled and said: "Of course. I was not good at studying since I was a child, so I stayed to compose poems, but they still didn't laugh at me."
Concubine Pei nodded at him angrily and asked: "What horse are you riding today? Where are the hounds? Are you ready?"
"It's Wang Yunzhui that my grandmother found earlier." Yang Shu answered frankly, "Such a thousand-mile horse will be useless if it is not allowed to run more."
Concubine Pei nodded. Looking at Yunzhui, it's not bad. It’s just the jade lion that shines at night...
Yang Shu saw where she was looking and knew what she was looking for, so he whispered: "Your Majesty, I'm just borrowing her..."
"When did you ever borrow your horse from someone else?" Concubine Pei said calmly, "I have told you before that even if she has an engagement, it doesn't matter if she wants to quit. I also gave her a chance, and you know the result. . Since she doesn’t want it, you should calm down and find a wife seriously, and don’t think about it here and there."
Yang Shu showed a troubled expression.
Concubine Pei was a little angry: "Don't you listen to your aunt?"
Yang Shu sighed and said: "Of course I will listen to what you say, but I have to listen to what it says!"
As he spoke, he pointed to his chest.
Concubine Pei was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly: "Can't you make my aunt feel more comfortable?"
"Don't worry," Yang Shu took the opportunity to say, "She has already relaxed, can you just give me some time?"
Concubine Pei expressed doubts: "Are you letting go?"
"Yes! Otherwise, how could she accept the horse I gave her?"
"..."
"Aunt!"
Concubine Pei was silent for a moment and said: "What are you talking about? Your Majesty personally ordered this matter, and your marriage must be resolved this time."
