Chapter 437: When did we say we were going to rebel?
Long Bing'er came over and looked at Xu Qing and said, "What are you doing?"
Xu Qing immediately put the horse hay into the manger from the horse feeding soldier with a serious look on his face, and said: "I feel sorry for this horse because it has been carrying the two of us for a day, so I need to feed it well.
"
As Xu Qing spoke, he looked at the soldiers on the side and said: "Brother, bring me some concentrated feed. How can such a good horse only eat such non-nutritious things as horse grass? Really, there is no care at all."
"
After saying that, Xu Qing touched the horse's face: "It's delicious, it's delicious. If it's not enough, I'll get it for you."
…
In the evening, Xiao Ye caught a rabbit and roasted it. In addition to the rabbit, he also roasted some dry food.
The fragrance spread very far, and Xu Qing could see that King Qi not far away swallowed his saliva several times and wanted to come closer, but he glanced at Xiao Ye beside Xu Qing fearfully several times, and finally stepped back.
After Long Bing'er finished eating the roasted rabbit, she went back to her tent to rest. She occupied Xu Qing's tent, so Xu Qing had no choice but to go over and squeeze in with Xiao Ye.
There would be criticism if a man and a woman were alone in the same room, let alone in the same tent.
The army marched on the second day, and Xu Qing and Long Bing'er fell behind the army to practice equestrian skills as usual.
But it was okay when Long Bing'er was holding him, but often when Long Bing'er let go, the horse under Xu Qing's crotch would start running around.
Xu Qing was afraid of falling, so she instinctively clamped her legs around the horse's ribs and held the reins firmly with her hands.
But the more Xu Qing clamped down, the harder the guy struggled, and his steps became impatient and disorderly, as if he wanted to shake off this stupid man from his body.
Every time Xu Qing lost control, it was Long Bing'er who took Xu Qing down.
Xu Qing looked at the ungrateful horse and said angrily: "I don't think I'm so good to you and I feed you concentrated feed. Yesterday, my love for you was really in vain!"
Long Bing'er crossed her arms and looked at Xu Qing: "It can't understand your words."
Xu Qing turned around and looked at Long Bing'er and said, "Then you too, I just felt something here and you let go."
Long Bing'er said: "I've been holding it, how did you learn it? I just want to let go and let you try to drive the horse by yourself, so that you can become familiar with the horse's own rhythm."
Xu Qing looked at Long Bing'er and asked: "Is your teaching method so special? To teach people to practice martial arts is to smash a table and let them learn to shoot by themselves. To teach people to ride horses is to tell others a few tips.
Let others sit on the horse and get used to riding it yourself?"
Long Bing'er nodded naturally: "What else?"
Xu Qing looked at Long Bing'er with a little sympathy.
It's actually not easy for a silly girl to grow up like this in a family like this.
After marching for another three days, the army finally arrived at Fengzhou Mansion.
Although it is said to be a large army, it actually only has less than 2,000 people.
Xu Qing also finally learned to ride a horse. Although he was still far from Xiao Ye's galloping horse, he at least understood how to accelerate, how to brake... brake the horse.
Now, Xu Qing is able to get on the horse skillfully.
As long as Xu Qing gently pinches the horse's belly with his calves, the horse can move forward smoothly.
Clamp the horse's ribs with your legs, and the horse will run obediently.
Just shout and it will go faster.
The faster you shout, the faster you run. Voice-controlled shifting is very humane!
Of course, so far, Xu Qing has not dared to ride on the horse and whip the bad-tempered horse because Xu Qing was afraid that the horse would hoof at him.
And there is another thing that is even more strange. No matter what orders Xu Qing gives to the horse, as soon as Long Bing'er gets started, the horse will immediately calm down and follow Long Bing'er on its back.
Xu Qing turned a deaf ear.
These days, horses like to look at beautiful women?!
…
Fengzhou is a mountainous area and was one of the most severely affected areas in Chu State last year.
Last year, flash floods washed away many forest trees, and mudslides buried a lot of fertile farmland. As a result, many farmers had no harvest. In desperation, they had to go up the mountain to weed.
The government sent troops several times to suppress them, but they did not want to. The more they suppressed them, the stronger they became.
Several big cottages formed a group and some small cottages were recruited, and in a short time they became a considerable force.
After that, these cottages began to rob the rich without helping the poor, claiming to be doing justice for heaven and began to openly confront the government.
Since those mountain strongholds were located in a commanding position and were easy to defend and difficult to attack, the local government had no choice but to seek help from the imperial court as they did not have elite soldiers and generals.
After entering the state capital, Xu Qing looked at Fengzhou City, which was as stable and peaceful as ever, and then at the Fengzhou Governor who was already welcoming him, and asked doubtfully: "Didn't it mean that Fengzhou rebels were in danger and were approaching the state city?"
The governor of Fengzhou was slightly startled when he heard what Xu Qing said. He looked at Xu Qing and then at Xiao Ye, the virtuous prince beside him: "When did you say that the rebels are approaching the city?"
Beijing, Prince Xian’s Mansion
In the study
The wise king looked at an official standing in the study, sighed, and said with sincerity: "Fang Aiqing, the feudal state has been invaded by rebels and bandits, approaching the state city, and other countries are ready to attack me. There are internal and external troubles, and the treasury is empty.
Ah! The court is in trouble..."

Inside Juyi Hall
A bald man was sitting there, drinking a lot of wine, and was very happy.
Today, his brothers went down the mountain to grab some money and food, and several nearby villages came to defect to him. Now he, the big boss, has nearly 2,000 people, and people come to defect to him every day. The mountains are high and the forests are dense, which is difficult to defend.
Attack, the government can do nothing for them.
This day is comfortable!
At this moment, a man dressed as a turban counselor came over, holding a feather fan in his hand.
The counselor looked at the big boss sitting at the seat and said, "The big boss."
The bald head saw the Lunjin counselor coming in and said quickly: "Mr. Xu is here, please take a seat quickly."
Mr. Xu looked at the bald master and said: "These days, talented people and strangers come to seek refuge every day. Congratulations to the master."
The bald head laughed loudly: "It's all thanks to Mr. Xu's clever plan! Will the imperial court really come to comfort me?"
Mr. Xu gently waved his feather fan and said with a smile: "Don't worry, the head of the family. Now the imperial court is suffering from internal and external troubles. It has provided several disaster reliefs and the national treasury is empty. It is still weak to deal with Zhou and Zhao. It cannot spare elite troops to deal with us. What can the local government do to us?"
, if there is no imperial edict, we will waste time with them here, now it is the government that is in a hurry, not us."
The boss smiled and said: "Mr. Xu is planning to stay away!"
At this moment, a bandit dressed in civilian clothes ran in, looked at the boss and said: "Report——, the boss!"
The boss was obviously in a good mood and asked: "What's the matter?"
The bandit said: "Shanxia came to report that a large number of people entered Yongzhou, and all of them were wearing armor, saying..."
The headmaster's heart tightened: "What did you say?"
The bandit said: "They say they are here to destroy the rebel bandits!"
When the leader heard this, he immediately collapsed in his seat, looked at Mr. Xu aside, and his throat moved: "When did we say we were going to rebel?"
