Chapter 335 Don’t want it if you don’t want it
Don't look at the stirrups as just a small piece of iron.
But with it, many people like Mr. Ning who are not good at equestrianism can climb on horseback, so that the number of cavalry in Daxing can increase a little.
He was working with the master, so he naturally knew that the recent increase in wounded soldiers in Jinling Prefecture was caused by the continuous harassment of borders among the Western Regions.
Among the countries in the Western Regions, Beidi relied on horseback to conquer the world and annexed sixteen small countries in the Western Regions, which led to the situation where he now controls half of the Western Regions and has the most say.
Beidi cavalry was very powerful. He was trained to live in the same room with people since childhood. Daxing wanted to learn equestrians by relying on the day of his acquisition. There were many difficulties. The emergence of stirrups allowed Daxing's cavalry to take the step on his horse and take the past.
, there is no need to blindly pursue the equestrian technique of unity of man and horse.
Because he understood how much change the stirrup could bring, Jiang Yang was even more embarrassed to accept this gift.
"Mr. Ning, why don't you forget the tuition fee? It's too expensive, I'm afraid I can't afford it."
"Then you just throw it away, just pretend that I have never given you this drawing. As for the stirrup, when I take the martial arts exam, everyone will find that at that time, I will give the credit for the memorial to the exam at that time.
School official, tsk, what a pity, my grandfather, the school examiner, went to the capital, and I don’t know if he could come back before the martial arts examination."
Ning Wuyang said lightly, not taking the stirrups to heart at all, so Jiang Yang really wanted to talk about the importance of the stirrups he had just thought about.
Before he could think about how to persuade Mr. Ning.
Ning Wuyang had already reached out to him.
"What to do?"
"If you don't want to return the drawings to me, you don't have to go back to this city. Let's continue practicing. By the way, untie the stirrups on your horse and tie them to my horse's back."
Ning Wuyang's behavior of turning against others made Jiang Yang very depressed.
He could see it.
He has to collect this tuition fee, and he has to collect it even if he doesn't. Otherwise, if other temporary school examiners find out the power of stirrups and report it to His Majesty, wouldn't it be equivalent to giving the credit to others?
Jiang Yang didn't want this drawing because he didn't want to covet the credit that should have belonged to Mr. Ning, but seeing that Mr. Ning didn't want this credit, he would be polite.
"No, Mr. Ning, I didn't say I don't want this drawing. I'll leave it to the master now. As for your stirrup... I'll bring it together tomorrow."
After saying that.
Jiang Yang seemed to be afraid that he would snatch the drawings back.
He gently tapped the stirrup with his left foot, turned over the horse and kicked the stirrup with a light kick. The horse carried the people and rushed towards the country road outside the village at the foot of the mountain.
It was not until Ning Wuyang couldn't see Jiang Yang's back that he breathed a sigh of relief and wiped the sweat beads that were coming out of his forehead.
"I almost had to do a real show. I tore the drawings and made Brother Jiang Yang unable to sleep. I offered wine and tobacco. Su Rui also wrote the story of Artemisia annua into a memorial and reported it. These are still OK
It was said that I had obtained from the lost medicine book, and then I put the inspiration of stirrups on my head. Your Majesty would not send someone to arrest me in 800 miles and force me to make special inventions.
?”
Ning Wudun, who was about to ask why he wanted to give the stirrup drawings to Jiang Yang, heard this "talking to himself", his mind suddenly became clear.
No wonder my fifth brother is not greedy for merit.
It turns out that I am worried that I will suffer backlash due to too much credit.
Compared to the young and frivolous fifth brother who was in the past, Ning Wudun felt very distressed.
"Fifth brother, don't worry, I won the top martial arts scholar this time, and I can speak in front of His Majesty. In this case, you can write poetry and lyrics, do business and make medicine, and you can farm and grow flowers.
But, don’t worry about others’ restraints on you anymore!”
The Ning family is still too weak.
And the Ning family's burden must not be carried by the fifth brother alone.
The fifth brother is under too much pressure!
Ning Wuyang actually just wanted the third brother to keep the stirrup secret. He did not expect that the third brother's sudden sensationalism caught him off guard.
How should I respond to my third brother?
He decided to follow his heart, and reached out and patted Ning Wudun's shoulder, and smiled knowingly: "Third brother, don't be too stressed. If you can't get into the top scorer in the martial arts exam, the greater the expectations, the greater the disappointment."
"Don't worry..."
"Don't worry, anyway, you will be the first in Jinling. When you go to the palace examination in Beijing, if you can't get the top scorer in martial arts, you will be as good as you, and you will be as good as you, and you will be good at looking bad. I'll find you a good family on the spot. Dear you
If it’s not reliable, we can find a good sister-in-law to protect me, right?"
Right...right?
Ning Wudun was stunned and could not tell for a moment. The fifth brother was joking with him in order to relieve the pressure on him.
I still really plan to find a marriage for him in the capital if he fails to pass the exam.
Just thinking.
I saw Ning Wuyang climbing onto the horse's back when he stepped on the stirrup.
"San brother, lend me a mount to practice."
“南~~”
Just finished speaking.
The horse started to jump on its four legs again.
Ning Wuyang once again experienced the feeling of sitting on a shaking horse, and he was wondering: Can I learn this horsemanship?
...
The setting sun shines through the window into the west wing of Shoukang Palace.
Zhou Jingxian, who was lying on the bed, twitched her fingers gently.
Concubine Jing, who was guarding the bedside, burst into tears and shouted to the outside: "Come on the imperial physician quickly, the girl Jingxian is awake!"
Zhou Jingxian heard the sound of her grandmother's breathless voice echoing in her ears. She slowly opened her eyes and saw the strange and familiar curtain.
It is strange because she was lying on this bed for the first time and saw the decoration here. It is familiar because of its indigo color and pattern in the room where her father had lived when he was young.
This was the first time she spent the night in the palace, but she didn't expect to come in due to illness.
"Girl Jingxian, you're awake. You've been sleeping for two days."
Zhou Jingxian was helped by Concubine Jing and sat up. She was about to speak, but her throat was so painful.
"Ahem...water..."
"Water, water, pour water quickly!"
After the palace maid poured a glass of warm water in person, Concubine Jing took it and took a sip first, then he came to Zhou Jingxian's mouth.
In the past, Zhou Jingxian would not have paid attention to such details. When she saw her grandmother's actions, she understood it in her heart.
Grandmother's palace should have been filled with imperial concubine An or King Jin's spy. Grandmother also heard that Zhou An's death was related to her and was worried that King Jin would send someone to poison her.
Grandma was too nervous.
If she had an accident at this time, Grandpa Emperor would definitely blame King Jin. King Jin could endure Zhou An's death in front of Grandpa Emperor. If the score was settled in the future, it would not be in the limelight.
It counts when it is in its prime.
"My daughter Jingxian, you have worked so hard this time. The imperial physician said that you almost injured your inner body and must take care of it for a month. After hearing this, your emperor's grandfather specially issued a decree to Jiangnan Road, asking the Tong Shi Zhi to take over temporarily.
If you can't handle your official duties, go to your fiefdom, Wuhu County, to find someone to take over."
manor?
Zhou Jingxian, who was swallowing warm water in small mouths, felt a look of joy in her face.
"Grandpa Emperor rewarded me with the golden book and the golden seal?"
Without a gold book and a gold seal, it is not considered that you truly have all the rights to the fiefdom.
