Chapter 29 The Jade Lion in the Night
Chapter 29: The Night Jade Lion
Before Pei Donglai could react, he was already pulled out by Pei Duoduo.
"This girl is really strong."
Although Pei Duoduo is not old, his martial arts cultivation is superior to many noble children in the Eastern Capital.
...
"Young Master..."
Hongxiu, who had just returned, saw Pei Duoduo beside the young master and quickly saluted: "I have met the lady."
Pei Duoduo nodded casually at Hongxiu, but did not agree. Instead, Pei Donglai smiled and blinked at her: "I'll go out for a walk with her, please help me tidy up the study."
Hong Xiu opened her mouth and finally swallowed the words back. The young master looked so weak, so he seemed to be in good spirits?
—
The stables in Yanyun Hou Mansion were very large and raised many famous horses. Most of the guards in the mansion were standard war horses. Although the stables were equipped with special housekeepers and many grooms, they quickly stepped forward to pay their respects when they saw the lady coming.
"Uncle Fu, help me bring 'Shuoxue' over."
When talking about "Shuoxue", Pei Duoduo looked a little proud: "Little brother, I tell you. Shuoxue is amazing. Lu Tao and the others lost to Shuoxue in the competition with me. By the way, the gentleman has riding and shooting. You must be able to ride a horse, right? There are many good horses in our mansion, so you can choose one too! Let's leave early, don't be caught by my mother and others!"
The little girl was chattering, but she was so cute.
The grooms beside him had long noticed the young man, and when they heard the lady calling him brother, they immediately reacted and greeted each other.
It turns out that this is the illegitimate son of the Marquis, and he looks good. Unfortunately, he is just too thin...
Without waiting for Pei Donglai to answer, Pei Duoduo, who saw the horse-loving horse, ran over and touched it and turned over. Pei Donglai narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at it. Her sister in the sun had a bit of heroic temperament.
Standard Xiliang horses are more often recruited for use in the army. They have long limbs, solid bones, good tendons and ligaments, and cicadas with palm pillow ruins (commonly known as night eyes), hard hooves, and can quickly run on hard ground. The sweat glands are well developed, so they are conducive to regulating body temperature. They are not afraid of the severe cold and heat, and are easy to adapt to the new environment. The chest is deep and wide, the heart and lungs are well developed, and are suitable for running and strong labor.
However, no matter how Pei Donglai looked at this horse, he felt that it should not be called "Shuoxue". Its face turned white, and the left part of its body was full of white hair... Judging from its single body shape, it looked a bit strange. However, the color of four hooves stomping on the snow is enough to prove its preciousness.
"Well? This horse is not psychic, right?" Pei Donglai looked at the horse's body, but suddenly found that the horse was also staring at him. When his eyes met, he was quite surprised.
"Little brother, you are not interested in Shuoxue!" Pei Duoduo showed a 'this is impossible' expression to Pei Donglai, and shouted: "Uncle Fu, pull out the night jade lion that the queen gave me..."
The jade lion in the night was all over the body, all white in color, without a single variegated color, and all white in body. It is said that he could travel thousands of miles a day and was born in Quanrong. Marquis Yanyun accidentally got a few horses a few years ago and all went to the palace. The queen was sympathetic to Marquis Yanyun's selflessness, so she gave one horse back to the mansion of Yanyun.
Pei Donglai also saw it in the book that it is said that this horse gave birth to hair around its neck. It is like a majestic and has a burst of personality. However, when it grows up, it will be driven out of the horse's herd, and its personality will become docile (it is said that the horse was driven out of the horse's herd because the horse evaporated silver and white light at night, so it was named).
The chief manager of the stable did not hesitate and immediately sent a servant to lead the horse. No one had ever ridden the Zhaoye Yu Lion since he came to Pei Mansion. The wife and the others were not good at riding and shooting, and the prince had already entered the army. The lady had her own "Shuoxue"... In this way, the rest of the whole mansion naturally did not have the right to ride this BMW of grace of the imperial court.
Now that the young master is here, the Zhaoye Yu Lion finally has a master.
Fresh clothes and angry horses galloping, no one in the family had ever imagined such a scene.
Xuexuan also seems to be white, and there is no miscellaneous hair on her body. It is head to tail, length one meter long, hooves to the spine, and height eight feet... A servant led the Zhaoye Jade Lion to Pei Donglai.
"It seems that in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", Zhao Yun rode the Zhao Ye Yu Lion!"
Pei Dong, who took the reins, looked at it and touched it naturally with his other hand.
"Young Master, be careful!"
Zhaoye Yu's lion screamed and raised his front hooves suddenly. As his mane was swinging, it seemed as if he was about to trample on Pei Donglai.
The servant who was standing aside quickly blocked Pei Donglai's face, grabbed the reins with one hand and began to comfort him.
The sudden Jingzhe made Pei Duoduo and other grooms unable to react.
Pei Donglai's face remained the same, and he looked at the servant who was blocking his face with bright eyes.
"Ashui, why don't you kneel down to the young master quickly! If you hurt the young master, you can take care of it!" Zhaoye Yushi gradually calmed down, and Uncle Fu, who was beside him, suddenly scolded.
The horses are so tyrannical, no matter what, they are the ones who trained the horses. Besides, the little marquis has just returned to the mansion. If something goes wrong because of this, they can't afford it!
"Little brother, are you okay?" Pei Duoduo has turned over and dismounted, ran to Pei Donglai and took a closer look: "You are not scared to death, are you! Why don't you hide!!!"
"fine."
Uncle Fu stepped forward and asked in a low voice, "Young Master, have you? Have you been riding a horse?"
"I haven't rode."
Pei Donglai's voice was neither loud nor small, nor deliberately. It was not embarrassing that he had never ridden or had never ridden.
When other grooms heard this, they all showed a 'so-so-so-so-so-so-so-so-so-so-so-so-so-so-so-so-so-go-to-hand-on-hand-on't-riff on the move when they came into contact with a horse. Some horses are violent by nature, and horses like Zhaoye Yu Lion have their own pride!
However, there was no face of a villain on these grooms' faces.
The rumors about the little marquis were all about to grow calluses when they heard about it. It was said that this little marquis was also in a miserable life. He was obviously a noble family, but he lived in a small town in the border due to various relationships.
It is true that scholars learn the Six Arts, but it depends on where they are. Not to mention the border towns, even in the eastern capital, many scholars from poor families have never rode a horse!
Pei Duoduo didn't know these, but the grooms who lived at the bottom of the class certainly understood.
Chapter completed!
