Chen Caozhi was quite surprised when he heard that Murong Chong said that the leopard was shot by Princess Qinghe. Princess Qinghe Murong Qinchen seemed to be only two or three years older than his younger brother Murong Chong, which is about the same age as Run'er. Can you shoot a leopard?
Chen Caozhi looked around, but except for Murong Chong's group of rouge warriors, he didn't see any other gorgeously dressed girls hunting here, so they must have avoided them.
Murong Chong laughed proudly and did not say where his sister, Princess Qinghe, had gone. Of course, Chen Caozhi was not in a position to ask.
The Grand Tutor Chang Shi came over and said, "Chen Xima, noon is almost here. The Grand Tutor invites Chen Xima back to the manor for a banquet."
The hunting was very fruitful. Not to mention Murong Chong and his rouge warriors, Shen Chiqian and Su Qi alone shot and killed two macaques, two black cranes, four brown-eared pheasants, and three hares. And the big lynx that Ran Sheng shot earlier——
The team of red scarf warriors rode rouge horses in front. Murong Chong fell behind and rode with Chen Caozhi. From time to time, he turned his head to look at Chen Caozhi, obviously wanting to say something. The dazzling eight-year-old Fenghuang'er said to Chen Caozhi had a very good impression of him. He often showed his childish humor in front of Chen Caozhi, unlike the proud and conceited attitude when they first met that night——
Chen Caozhi thought of the lovely pair of nephews and nieces in Qiantang far away, and couldn't help but smile and said, "What are you looking at, Your Highness? Is there a phoenix painted on my face?"
Murong Chong gave a soft "hum" and ignored Chen Caozhi. After a while, he came over again and said, "Chen Xima, Xiao Wang will make a bet with you, okay?"
Chen Caozhi shook his head and said: "I have a family motto and never gamble with others."
Murong Chong said: "Then don't bet, just guess. Yes, it's like guessing. If you guess correctly, I will give you this jade horse. If you don't guess correctly, you will give me a beloved thing."
Chen Caozhi looked at the beautiful blond girl with a smile and said, "Your Highness, tell me, what do you guess?"
Murong Chong said in a low voice: "Has Chen Xima seen Xiao Wang's team?"
Chen Caozhi raised his eyes and looked at the group of rouge warriors with enchanting red scarves and heroic looks in front of them. His heart moved and he guessed what Murong Chong wanted to say. He nodded and said: "Your Highness knows people and makes good use of them. These women are well-trained. "
Murong Chong smiled proudly, but then said: "Chen Xima doesn't know something. There is one person among these twenty people who I can't give orders to, but he often gives me orders. If you can guess which one of them this is, I will I will give you the jade horse." He added: "You can only look at the back, and you are not allowed to run to the front to look."
Chen Cao said in his heart: "Sure enough, Princess Qinghe is among these rouge warriors." Now he looked closely -
This group of female warriors accompanied them all the way from Yecheng. They were all wearing red scarves, tight-fitting floral jackets, crotchless trousers, deerskin boots, and rouge horses under their crotches. They all had exquisite figures and picturesque features. Chen Caozhi As a gentleman of the Southern Kingdom and an envoy of integrity, he would not deliberately admire the beauty of these Xianbei women. Now listening to Murong Chong's tone, the noble Xianbei princess should be among this group of female warriors, but let Chen Caozhi What is confusing is that these female warriors seem to be adult girls over 17 or 18 years old, with beautiful waists and plump buttocks. How can Qinghe Princess Murong Qinchen, who is only in her early teens, be among them? It is unimaginable that Run'er can be among them. Among this group of adult beauties, Tao Guang disappeared, but just now it became clear that someone said it was Princess Qinghe who shot the leopard. The only female warrior mixed in this group could be Princess Qinghe Murong Qinchen——
Twenty rouge horses walked in twos and twos, trotting forward. The riders on the horses had straight backs and a pleasing riding posture. The autumn sun was shining brightly, the tree shadows were mottled, and the grass was green and yellow. Such a group of bright knights were running in such a field.
It is really a pleasure to go on the mountain road.
Chen Caozhi stared at it for a while, then turned to Murong Chong and said, "The sixth person from the left, right?"
Murong Chong had known the location for a long time. His blue eyes widened and he said curiously: "Chen Xima could tell it right away. What a good eyesight! How did you identify it?"
Chen Caozhi smiled slightly and looked at the graceful and light figure. This woman's figure was slightly slender than the other female warriors. She was riding on a rouge horse and her waist was naturally elegant. A section of her snow-white neck was exposed under the red scarf and black bun.
It is dazzlingly white, like fine porcelain and jade. At first glance, it does not appear to be outstanding among the female warriors, but the more you look at it, the more exquisite it becomes. The flowing shape of the red scarf and the curve of the waist are different from other female warriors.
Different, extremely beautiful——
Chen Caozhi asked: "Is that Her Royal Highness Princess Qinghe?"
Murong Chong laughed happily and said: "Sister didn't let me tell you. You guessed it. Well, this jade horse belongs to you. It is a tribute from King Ding Ling."
Chen Cao said: "Very good, this horse belongs to me, and now I will give it to His Highness the King of Zhongshan."
Murong Chong was overjoyed. He loved the jade horse very much, but since he lost the bet, he naturally pretended not to care and handed the horse over. This is called magnanimity. Unexpectedly, Chen Caozhi returned the horse to him.
What is lost is found again. This Chen Caozhi is neither greedy nor stingy, and is a wonderful man.
Chen Caozhi still felt a little confused. Look at the beautiful back of Princess Qinghe. Although she is slender than other female warriors, she obviously has the curves of a mature girl. Her waist is particularly thin and she is tall. Eleven-year-old Run'er is
There is no such thing as such a stature!
According to historical records, Princess Qinghe was fourteen years old and Murong Chong was twelve years old. They were both summoned by Fu Jian to stay in the Zichen Palace. Now, Murong Chong is eight years old, so Princess Qinghe should be ten years old, but the rouge will soon have a slim waist.
The knight does not look like a ten-year-old girl!
Since it is inconsistent with historical facts, it should be verified. Chen Caozhi asked: "Your Highness, how much older is your sister Princess Qinghe than you?"
Murong Chong looked sideways at Chen Caozhi, as if he understood something. His blond head was pecked bit by bit like a phoenix, and he said: "I am four years older - I understand. Chen Xima thinks that my sister is not good enough."
She looks like a twelve-year-old person, right, but she is exactly twelve years old. I, Murong, no matter whether I am a man or a woman, I am tall and beautiful. When I grow up, I will also grow very tall, just like my uncle the Fourth Emperor.
, Taller than your cousin." As he said that, he glanced at Ran Sheng. He had a very bad impression of Ran Sheng. It's really strange. Chen Xima's jade face and red lips, his gentle talk, made people happy to see him, but
He, a disciple of the same clan, has a vicious beard, and his eyes are vicious—
Chen Caozhi thought: "It turns out that Murong Qinchen is four years older than Murong Chong. Fang Xuanling and others who compiled the Book of Jin are really not rigorous."
The matter passed like this, and Chen Caozhi didn't take it to heart. Princess Qinghe's riding posture was so beautiful that she would inevitably look at it a few more times, that's all. But Phoenix's Murong Chong had something on his mind, so Chen Caozhi
Why should I repay you for washing a horse and giving me a BMW? Children's thoughts are simple and passionate.
The group returned to the Manor of King Shangyong, and Murong Ping personally hosted a banquet for Chen Caozhi. During the dinner, they talked happily. While drinking and eating meat, Murong Ping suddenly said to Chen Caozhi: "Chen Xima, who is this?"
As he spoke, he looked at Ran Sheng.
Chen Caozhi felt a chill in his heart and replied: "This is my younger brother, whose name is Yu and whose courtesy name is Zisheng."
Although Murong Ping felt that Ran Sheng was tall and majestic, he looked familiar, but since he was Chen Caozhi's disciple, he didn't think much about it. He just tried to persuade Chen Caozhi to drink, and talked about the management of the Jiangdong gentry's manor.
Based on his Chen's Manor, the scale was enlarged ten times, occupying mountains and rivers, plundering and plundering, and making huge profits. Murong Ping was deeply inspired. This Tutor, Situ, and King Shangyong of the Yan Kingdom had a special hobby for amassing wealth.
In the late afternoon, Chen Caozhi said goodbye to Murong Ping and returned to Yecheng. Murong Ping promised to facilitate peace talks between Yan and Jin. Chen Caozhi thanked him, knowing very well that peace talks between Jin and Yan were impossible, at least while Murong Ke was alive, peace talks between Jin and Yan
It is impossible. If there is no ambition to conquer the world, why move the capital to Yecheng.
When he returned to the city, Chen Caozhi found that the team of red scarf warriors was missing two people, and among them was Princess Qinghe.
The autumn air was crisp and the horses were galloping. It was three o'clock in Shenshi when they arrived at Yecheng. Murong Chong and Chen Caozhi parted at the west gate. Murong Chong said: "The little king will invite you to drink someday. By the way, the little king heard that Chen Xima can write
I am good at painting, and I would like to ask Chen Xima to paint a painting for me——"
Chen Caozhi smiled and asked: "What does Your Highness like to draw?"
Murong Chong said: "How about painting Chen Xima himself?"
"Paint myself!" Chen Cao was stunned. He had never painted a self-portrait before. He said with a smile: "It's hard for people to know themselves. It's difficult to paint yourself. I'll paint a portrait for His Highness."
Murong Chong hesitated for a moment, shook his head and said: "Instead of painting me, how about painting a goddess Mulan?"
"Goddess Mulan?" Chen Cao said: "I have never seen this flower, so I can't draw it."
Murong Chong said: "There is one in the Bronze Bird Garden -" Then he remembered that the Bronze Bird Garden was the inner garden of the palace, so naturally Chen Caozhi could not go in, so he said, "Then I will break a branch and show it to you tomorrow." After that, he cupped his hands.
He galloped away with a group of rouge warriors.
When Chen Caozhi returned to his residence in Bingjingtai, he saw that Murong Ling, the Crown Prince of Wu, had been waiting for a long time. He smiled and said, "Chen Xima is good at socializing, and he actually has friendship with King Zhongshan and King Shangyong. I admire him!"
Chen Caozhi said calmly: "I live under the fence of others and look up to others. Don't say that I am the King of Zhongshan or the King of Shangyong. Even a common official can command me. What can I do?"
Murong Ling and Chen Caozhi walked all the way from Gong County to Yecheng. They admired Chen Caozhi's knowledge and demeanor very much and said sincerely: "Chen Xima, with all due respect, if you want to return home safely, don't go with me."
King Shangyong kept frequent contacts and tried to get the best of both worlds, but he was self-defeating."
Chen Caozhi bowed his head and said: "Thank you very much for your kind words, Your Highness. I am not trying to have both sides, but King Zhongshan has invited me. Can I refuse?"
Murong Ling smiled and said: "I'm just kindly reminding you. I also know Chen Xima's difficulties. Haha, Chen Xima will follow me to see Dazai. Dazai will start taking medicine today. I have something to ask Chen Xima for advice."
