457. the 457th chapter two rivalry: wrath of the emperor
Walking down the branch road along the edge of Yuquan Villa, after about two sticks of incense, the sound of surging water rang in my ears. Following the sound of water, I walked into a valley. In midsummer, it is the season of towering green mountains, colorful purples and reds, and a blue sky.
White clouds, the sun is shining, the green screen is like a cover, and the flowers are like clusters. In the wide valley, red and green are flying in the distance, the water is gurgling nearby, and the rapids are whirling in the high places. Occasionally, a few chaffinches fly by, passing by the green tree tops, gliding across the sky.
Break through the hanging waterfall and fly into the clear blue sky.
It can be called a paradise!
"It's a beautiful place." Mu Jieyu couldn't help but close his eyes, took a deep breath of fresh air, and praised softly.
"There are better ones." Xuanyuan Zhirong curled his lips and pointed forward, "Going over that mountain col, you will find the vastest grassland in the North Plains."
Mu Jieyu didn't say anything, but pushed Xuanyuan Zhirong to move forward, around the mountain col, and looked down from a high place. It was really an endless grassland, with green grass woven into a deep emerald carpet stretching to the horizon.
, a small stream winds like a snake on the grass. Under the sun, it glows with a dazzling golden light. Looking into the distance, you can also see groups of cattle and sheep like ants.
"Is anyone taking care of those cattle and sheep?" Mu Jieyu squinted his eyes, looking through layers of golden light, and saw a fence with wooden stakes surrounding the cattle and sheep not far away.
"The cattle and sheep in the paddock are guarded by special personnel sent by the emperor. There are not only cattle and sheep, but also horses. I have asked someone to pick one for you a few days ago. Why don't we go and take a look now." Xuanyuan Zhirong turned around.
Said to Mu Jieyu.
"Which way to go?" Mu Jieyu asked, looking at the three forked roads ahead.
"Over there." Xuanyuan Zhirong pointed with his slender, jade-like index finger.
The racecourse was a little far away. They sightseeed the scenery along the way and listened to Xuanyuan Zhirong's explanation. They walked slowly for nearly half an hour before reaching the racecourse. Compared to the deserted and quiet grassland and valley, the racecourse was crowded with people.
.Because of the Xia Miao Banquet, many of the courtiers who were favored to come here could not have horses. Even if they had horses, they would not be able to ride all the way for the sake of appearance. Therefore, the wives and ladies who wanted to attend the Xia Miao Banquet could only
Go to the racecourse to choose horses.
"I have just fallen in love with this horse. You bunch of slaves are trying to stop me. Do you think you don't care about me from the bottom of your heart?" Mu Jieyu and Xuanyuan Zhirong had just approached the paddock when they heard
This familiar and arrogant voice came from the crowd gathered in front.
"As for the little princess, I don't dare to neglect the princess. It's really..."
"Since you dare not neglect this princess, just let go!" Jun Yuwei did not give the anxious voice a chance to explain.
"Little Princess, this is His Royal Highness Prince Rong's horse, you can't..."
"Presumptuous!" With a sharp shout, Mu Jieyu clearly heard the whistling sound of a whip cutting through the sky, followed by a muffled sound, and then Jun Yuwei's scolding voice, "Such a bold slave, this
This is a royal paddock, everything belongs to your Majesty, and this princess is here to choose horses on your majesty’s order. You dare to pretend to be His Highness the King and deal with this princess, and trap His Majesty in injustice, even if this princess is around you.
Even if I kill you, His Highness Prince Rong will not spare you lightly. Today, I, the princess, will mention His Highness Prince Rong to teach you a lesson!"
From the corner of his eye, Mu Jieyu saw a long whip arcing across the air like a snake. He then tiptoed and leapt away.
