bamboo horse prince

On the way back, the three of them sat silently in the carriage, Li Sheng seemed to remember something, shook the water bottle next to the chair, and found that it was empty.Yang Nian noticed his movement, and immediately looked out the window in embarrassment.

As soon as he arrived at the gate of the palace, the maid who came to pick him up hurriedly bowed down to salute, and whispered a few words in Yang Feng'er's ear.

Yang Nian was so predictable, he rolled his eyes, "I just ordered Wan Jieyi to prepare a cushion for you, just kneel down."

"Thank you too," Yang Feng'er glared at Yang Nian, "Have you prepared ginger soup for Sheng'er?"

"Sent to the Prince's Mansion." Yang Nian yawned and waved at Yang Feng'er, "I'll come see you tomorrow morning."

Li Sheng was puzzled, "Why is the sister-in-law kneeling?"

"You two are crying so much that the whole capital can almost hear it. Someone must be punished."

"Then I..."

"What are you, you, the county king you made yesterday, is kneeling at the gate of the palace today?" Yang Nian made no excuses, and refused to let anyone go.

Just as Yang Feng'er wanted to blame Yang Nian for not speaking properly, Li Sheng knelt down straight, "Sister-in-law Huang's kindness to me, Cheng'er will never forget."

His kneeling startled the two siblings. They all knew that Li Sheng was simple-minded, even a little dull, otherwise he would not have been sent out of the palace. It's hard to find.

Yang Feng'er took a deep breath and was about to shed tears again.

Yang Nian quickly winked and asked the maid to help the queen in, while he went to help Li Sheng himself, "My county prince, if you want to kneel, you don't kneel now. I take this heart for my sister."

Only then did Li Sheng remember that there were many eyes and ears in the palace, and that he would be gobbled up when he knelt like this, which would be of no benefit to himself or Yang Feng'er. Thinking of his uncle's instructions before returning to Beijing, he looked a little guilty.

Yang Nian took Li Sheng's arm at this time, "Come on, it's getting late, let's go back to the house first, let's catch up on the old days."

After a few days, Yang Nian walked to Li Sheng's mansion with the food box and the chessboard between them.

The county prince's mansion was the residence of a prince in the previous dynasty. It had been abandoned for a long time, and this time it was directly rewarded to Li Sheng.No one cares about this little county king who is not yet an adult. Everything in this palace is dilapidated except for the new plaque.The servant at the door was reaching for the cobwebs on the door with his broom, and he didn't pay attention to Yang Nian who was stooping to avoid them sneaking in.When he turned around, he found that Yang Nian had already gone straight to the backyard.

Yang Nian was ordered by her sister to bring fresh flower cakes made in the palace to make friends with Li Sheng.He had expected this desolation, so he went to the place that was cleaned first.

"Hey! The little thief who broke into the palace!" The servant at the door shouted towards the inner courtyard.

Yang Nian turned around, thinking that he still hadn't mastered his kung fu.

"What nonsense?" Li Sheng's butler hurriedly stopped the servant, "This is the son of Xiangye's family!"

"Song Xi!" Yang Nian immediately recognized this somewhat old-fashioned house slave. This was a member of the Empress Xian's family. He had been with Li Sheng since he was a child. Yang Nian was also familiar with him. Sheng is messing around.

"Hey, Young Master Nian," Song Xi hurriedly leaned over, "His Royal Highness said that you would come to catch up on the old days, but I'm still thinking about when."

Only then did Yang Nian remember what he had said to Li Sheng earlier, and said embarrassedly, "Hey, what about others?"

"It's sword practice in the backyard. You can go straight along this road and you will be there."

As soon as Yang Nian heard about the sword practice, he flew to the backyard like a gust of wind. Song Xi was about to take the food box and threw away his hand. He smiled, thinking that Mr. Yang hadn't changed, so he turned around and called the kitchen to make some food.

Yang Nian's limbs were uncoordinated, and he couldn't find a way to practice swords. In addition, his family emphasized civility over martial arts and did not often supervise him, so his swordsmanship has not improved much.And Li Sheng's talent is almost entirely concentrated in martial arts, and he has been praised by his elders since he was a child.Yang Nian is often jealous, so he has worked hard in recent years, thinking that in the future it will not be too ugly to lose.

Li Sheng lowered his center of gravity, held the epee with the strength of his wrist, withdrew backwards, bent down, and the epee hit the ground with a heavy sound.

Yang Nian's heart also trembled, this black boy has so much strength?

Using the sword as a fulcrum, Li Sheng made a few spins in a row, his movements were smooth and smooth, without hesitation, and then he rushed forward, brandishing the heavy sword in his hand...

Song Xi heard a scream from the backyard, felt bad, and hurried over, just in time to see Yang Nian sitting on the ground with dull eyes, the flower cake in the food box was shattered.

Li Sheng didn't know what to say, he thought it was his brother in the army who came to visit him, and he wanted to scare the other party, it was messed up, so he turned to Song Xi for help.

Song Xi quickly helped Yang Nian up, "Master Nian, are you alright?"

"..." Yang Nian blinked and came back to his senses, "What a good sword."

"Huh?" Li Sheng was confused.

"I said good sword!" Yang Nian jumped up, and couldn't help touching Li Sheng's epee, "How can you practice so well! How can you use it so hard? Come on, teach me."

Yang Nian was not much taller than the epee, and it was very difficult to hold the hilt with his small hands. Li Sheng grabbed his hand in a daze, and falteringly recited the formula, teaching him to lift the sword.

Song Xi breathed out, "You two young masters, the kitchen is almost done, let's have a meal first and then discuss."

"Okay, Li Sheng, you have to tell me which master you worship." Yang Nian excitedly took Li Sheng's hand and walked into the main hall.

Song Xi picked up the food box, thinking that although his master is a county king, his status in the capital is actually far inferior to that of the Xiangye's son. If Yang Nian and Li Sheng hadn't played together since they were young, they would be easy to get along with Man, this matter must not be easy to solve.Song Xi silently admired the queen's decision at first.

However, Song Xi picked up the ivory chessboard with a corner cracked, it's not something that can afford to lose.

On the table, Yang Nian talked endlessly about the difficulties and obstacles on his way of learning art. There were 1 reasons why he couldn't practice this sword well, but he didn't mention that he was too lazy to do it.

Of course Li Sheng could understand, "I only made progress after a lot of trials in the army."

"Really!" Yang Nian nodded, "You always practice on your own but you can't do anything, so you have to have an opponent."

"The general who taught me how to practice the sword has also returned to Beijing this time," Li Sheng said. "When you have nothing to do, go sit with him and let him give you some pointers. Maybe you will make great progress."

"Okay," Yang Nian said excitedly, "This is nectar made by my girl, and it is used as a tribute. It's a pity that it survived in that food box."

Li Sheng picked up the flower cake with chopsticks and chewed it in his mouth, it was sweet but not sweet, it was very delicious.

"My sister specifically told you not to make it too sweet for you, and I didn't ask anyone to add sugar."

"Thank you Sister Feng'er for being so caring," Li Sheng quickly thanked, Song Xi stood next to him and whispered a few words, Li Sheng then said, "Your chessboard is broken, I don't know what to pay you, look If there is anything valuable in this mansion, just take it."

Song Xi bowed his head, the master spoke directly.

"Precious? Your house is probably considered expensive only by you, the master."

"..." Li Sheng thought for a while, "Then..."

"Hey, I don't want you to make a promise with your body." Yang Nian waved his hand quickly, "I think your epee looks good, can you lend it to me for two days?"

"It's okay to borrow it from you, but the sword weighs nearly thirty catties, so it's not easy for you to get it back."

Yang Nian thought that you are looking down on me, so he dragged his epee to the house that afternoon, and did not enter the mansion until nightfall.
