Chapter 34 Horses

After coming out of Wanghuayuan that day, Qi Ping took a carriage to the vicinity of the imperial palace, and was escorted into the palace by Wei Chiyu. Chang'er's newly made clothes and the changed one were left in the inn.

Qiulin and Xiaolu waited anxiously at the gate for a long time, and finally saw two figures approaching from a distance, went up to meet them, but found that apart from Qi Ping, even Chang'er was wearing a men's clothing that didn't really fit. Before he went out at noon, he said that he was going to get new clothes, but now he was empty-handed. Looking at Qi Ping's face, his face was stern and angry, and Chang'er who followed was also full of resentment.

Xiaolu was blunt, and as soon as she asked a question, Qiulin, who had seen the clue, pulled her cuffs and told her not to talk too much. When she entered the room, she quickly took out the hot water that had been prepared for them to wash.

Qi Ping was unhappy, not only because he felt teased by Wei Chiyu, but also because of the words in Liu Yan's room, the feelings that he had long wanted to dust in his heart, were ignited by such a sentence, "Women understand women better", so is it a woman? Can the relationship with a woman be sweeter and last longer?

I annoy myself daydreaming and even more annoyed that I can't help but look forward to it.

On the third day, Qi Ping sat in front of the case and practiced calligraphy in meditation. Wei Chiyu took the clothes that had been left in the inn before, and came to apologize in person.

Two days have passed since the incident. I was annoyed at the time and now I let go of it a lot. Qi Zhe didn't want to pursue it anymore, so he forgave Wei Chiyu.

After getting Qi Ping's forgiveness, Wei Chiyu thanked him and left Lanyue Palace. In the afternoon, the medicinal food was delivered again, and it turned out to be mutton nourishing soup. Perhaps what happened two days ago made Qi Ping's mouth sores worse. Wouldn't this mutton make the fire worse.

But the father-in-law stood beside him with a suppressed smile, even if the emperor bestowed him, he had to drink it with gratitude even if it was rotten, not to mention this delicious nourishing soup.

After drinking a cup of medicinal food and wiping the corners of his mouth with a towel, the father-in-law smiled and said, "Princess, Your Majesty has asked our family to send you a message."

It has been five days since I came back from the imperial mausoleum. Apart from the daily medicinal food, the two of them have no interaction as before. Now that they heard Qi Xiao's message, they suppressed the joy in their hearts and folded their hands and legs, elegantly and indifferently. He said, "Oh? Eunuch, please tell me."

"Tomorrow is not too late, His Majesty invites you to practice riding in the paddock, and I hope the princess will make some preparations."

The word has been spread, the father-in-law took the empty soup cup and left Lanyue Palace, and after less than half an hour, several people took their riding uniforms and came to Qi Ping.

The style of the riding uniform is similar to that of the northern Hu clothing, with long trousers and boots. Compared with the elegant style of the Central Plains literati, it is more casual and rough. In addition to being more convenient for at least battles, the thick fabric can also reduce the chance of accidentally falling off the horse when riding. the damage suffered.

In the early morning of the second day, with the help of Chang'er, Qi Ping managed to put on this riding suit. Compared with the light and fluffy skirts he was used to wearing, this suit was really heavy, not to mention the pair of skirts on his feet. The weight of the sleeves of the boots that protect the calf makes it take more effort than usual for Qi Ping to bend down and raise his arms.

Before he had time to get used to the attire, the carriage was already waiting at the door, and he took Qi Ping to the royal enclosure in the southern suburbs of the capital.

All the way to the south, after walking for about half an hour, we arrived at the gate of the paddock.The paddock is located in the southern outskirts of the capital. It has always been used for hunting and hunting by the royal family. Every autumn, the Autumn Siege is held. In spring, everything is revived and animals reproduce. Therefore, the paddock in spring is generally only used for horseback riding and archery.

After entering the paddock, the carriage slowed down and turned left and right to reach the stables. There were already many people standing there. After opening the sedan chair curtains, they recognized Eunuch Liu immediately. In the stables behind, there were about a hundred fine horses kept in captivity. .

After getting out of the carriage, Qi Wei searched around but did not see Qi Xiao. After the people around him came to salute, they learned from Eunuch Liu that Qi Xiao had already ridden that sweaty BMW to somewhere in the paddock. .

The horse boy picked out an old horse with a short stature and a docile personality from the stables. He was wearing a thick Hu suit all over his body. Looking at the stirrups hanging from the horse's belly, he couldn't lift his feet and sit on it.

Just as he was hesitating, not knowing what to do, there was the sound of horse hooves in the distance, approaching from far away, whipping and shouting of the horsewhip.

A black horse landed on all four hooves in a hurry, trampling on billowing dust, its black mane scattered in a mess, its vigorous muscles relaxed as it ran, and a white and maroon horse followed behind it tens of feet away.

The person on the black horse was about to reach the stable and pulled the rein in his hand. The black horse leaped into the air and let out a neigh. Everyone looked at the person on the horse with wide eyes and nervousness. Seeing her calm and unfazed, her light-colored eyes Flashing the eyes of conquest, his legs tightly clamped the horse's belly, not letting himself fall and holding the rein tightly, and the black horse fell to the ground obediently after a while.

The two horses behind will also catch up now, the man on the white horse is Wei Chiyu, and the man on the maroon horse is an unfamiliar man. Seeing that the two of them were a false alarm in the scene just now, Wei Chiyu gasped and said: "As expected of you! Sweaty horse, this horse's butt is about to be smashed, or it will be thrown far away."

While stroking the horse's mane, Qi Xiao had rare tenderness in his eyes, and when he saw Qi Ping who was still watching in front of the stable, he even twitched the corners of his mouth and laughed, full of complacency.

Pulling one side of the rein with his left hand, he lashed the horsewhip hard and disappeared from sight again. Wei Chiyu and the man looked at each other with a wry smile, and followed up with all their strength.

Qi Ping stood in front of the stable with both fear and longing. One of the stable servants had already prostrated himself at Qi Ping's feet for a long time, just waiting for her to step on his back so that he could step on the stirrup.

One person stabilized the horse, the other acted as a pedal, and a father-in-law was beside him to support Qi Ping. With such an unremarkable posture, Qi Ping finally got on the old horse.In an instant, the sight in front of the eyes is wider, and the distance can be seen beyond the horse's head, and the different breeze is blowing on the cheeks.

The old horse has a docile temperament, and always just lowers his head and shakes his head.

It was the first time I rode a horse and I didn't know how to make the horse move. The horse boy asked Qi Zhi where he wanted to go. Qi Zhi pointed to the direction where Qi Xiao left just now. The horse boy nodded and let Qi Zhi grab the mane and let him lead it He took the reins and walked slowly towards the forest, followed by two attendants as protection.

At the beginning, Qi Ping held the horse's belly nervously, and his whole body was stiff, worried that he would fall off. Under the patient explanation of the stable boy, he slowly relaxed his limbs and adjusted his center of gravity in line with the horse's movements.Along the way, the old horse sometimes lowered his head to nibble on the tender grass on the ground, and sometimes snorted, looking at the surrounding scenery and feeling the pleasant temperature in early summer. It was really interesting.

Although he couldn't gallop like Qi Xiao, at least he had a different perspective.

After getting a little familiar with it, the horseman let go of the reins and handed it over to Qi Ping to control himself. He walked all the way to the middle of the paddock. Qi Ping saw three horses of different colors standing not far away. Don't think too much about it. Qi Xiao and the others .

Dangyouyou drove the old horse to them, but found that he did not dare to take off the rein with both hands to salute.

Qi Xiao just saw Qi Ping coming forward with this old horse bouncing, and she was amused by the look of distress on her face, so she couldn't help but smile, "Forget it, excuse me, what does the princess think of riding a horse?"

"It's very fun, but it's a pity that I can't gallop like Your Majesty." Qi Xiao was facing the sun with sweat shining on his forehead, and his shining eyes were not as deserted as they were in the hall. Instead, they showed unruly and self-confidence, which made Qi Wei a little bit Can't take my eyes off.

"Then let me take you to experience it for a while." After finishing speaking, Qi Xiao drove a black horse to bring Qi Ping and stretched out his right hand.

Qi Zhi didn't understand, he didn't understand the meaning of Qi Xiao's words just now, just saw her stretch out her hand to him, then subconsciously let go of the rein and stretched out her right hand to hold it.Then, all of a sudden, Qi Xiao leaned forward and hugged Qi Ping's waist with his other hand, and with all his strength, Qi Ping was lifted into the air, and before he could cry out in surprise, his body had already landed safely in Qi Xiao's arms , sitting on the same horse.

The Sweaty Horse has a strong physique, and it is easy for it to carry two people on its back. The actions just now have no effect on it, and it will lower its head and eat the tender grass on the ground.

Qi Zhi's heart was beating straight in his chest, and in addition to the fragrance of the surrounding grass and soil, there was a faint scent of sandalwood in his breath. She was sitting in Qi Xiao's arms, surrounded by Qi Xiao's arms on both sides, Seemingly touching Qi's body lightly.

The throbbing in his chest was even more violent, so intense that Qi Ping was worried that the people behind him would find something abnormal, so he moved forward a little and stopped being so close, but just separated, the people behind him grabbed Qi Ping back, and the two of them met again. Closely relying on each other: "Why rush forward, you will fall when you run later."

The warm breath sprayed on the pinnae of the ears, the air was like a blue orchid, and a tingling feeling spread all over the body instantly. Qi Zhe had to bite his lower lip, hoping that the unnatural blush on his face would not be noticed by the people behind him. After a "drive", the horse She ran quickly, considering that Qi Ji was not good at equestrian skills, Qi Xiao didn't let go with all her strength, and still made the person in her arms scream.

"Don't talk, you'll bite your tongue."

Qi Zhe shut his mouth quickly, it was the first time he had ridden a horse like this before in a sedan chair and a carriage, his internal organs were almost turned upside down, but everything felt so wonderful, the scenery in front of him had a panoramic view, the trees, flowers and plants around him Moving back quickly, the wind whizzed past my ears, and behind me was a reassuring embrace.

After running for a while, Qi Xiao reined in the reins to let the horse walk slowly. Qi Ping was bumped all the way and his breath was unstable, so he could take a few breaths. Under Qi Xiao's guidance, the horse slowly walked up to a high ground Slope, the guards following behind stopped at the bottom of the slope.

The vision in front suddenly became clear, the horse stopped at the highest point of the slope, the sun was fading to the west, and the red rays of light enveloped the two of them, their chests rose and fell with their breathing, and their bodies leaned slightly against the arms of the person behind them, all in harmony. I want this moment to last forever.

"I heard that the princess has been to Wanghuayuan before, but I don't know that Liu Yan, the oiran, has caught the princess' eyes."

I don't know why Qi Xiao would mention this at such a beautiful moment, the previous touch was destroyed without a trace, and he turned to look at Qi Xiao with a little dissatisfaction.

The height of the two is slightly shorter than that of Qi Xiao. Now they are sitting in front of the horse again. When they turn their heads, their foreheads are just at the position of Qi Xiao's chin. When they raise their heads, they see that the other party is also looking down at him with pale eyes. Reflected by the surrounding sun with a layer of red, the thin lips under the bridge of the tall nose were pursed into a straight line at this moment, waiting for Qi Ping's answer.

"Of course I can't get in." The beautiful face was close at hand, and Qi Yan stared at Qi Xiao with parted lips, "In my opinion, it's not half as good as Your Majesty."

Looking away, Qi Xiao looked up at the imperial city in the distance: "The princess is really eloquent."

Qi Ping still looked at Qi Xiao's handsome side face, and the corners of his originally rigid mouth curved up at this moment. Qi Ping turned around, and a gust of wind blew away her black hair. He narrowed his eyes and said softly: "Your sentence is true, I dare not Deceive the king and ignore it."

The simple words of the person in front of him untied the suffocation that had been entangled in his heart, and the black hair lightly ran across the arms holding the rein, and attached to Qi Xiao's chest and even his cheeks.

There was that person's unique fragrance on the black silk, like the faint plum fragrance that was in the snow that day, it permeated Qi Xiao's heart, causing little ripples, making his chest seem to be lightly brushed by someone with a feather, slightly fluttering. itch.
