Originally, Hyun was very excited about Ning Yan's performance, but when he heard the surname "Teng", his attention focused on this:
"The surname Teng, the origin of this surname has a lot of history."
Ning Yan put down the tea bowl and said with great interest:
"You idiot also knows the origin of the surname Teng. It seems that you are still a very knowledgeable idiot."
Xun glanced at him angrily. Ning Yan smiled and looked out the door with a serious look on his face:
"The Yellow Emperor had 25 sons, and 14 of them were given the surname Teng. Among them was Teng. Teng Juan's father, Teng Yan, claimed to be a descendant of the Yellow Emperor. "玊" means a person who carves jade, and Teng Juan was said to be his spirit. "The beautiful jade that was carefully carved," snorted, "It's simply ridiculous. I want to stuff Teng Juan into the palace. Is your father a fool? Can't you see his ambition? I beat him every time, but I can't escape." First, if you can't escape fifteen, there will always be a day when you can't escape, so the emperor's uncle took the initiative to propose marriage to his father and went to Teng Yan's house to propose marriage. The old man Teng Yan was absolutely unwilling, but it was not easy to refute it. In order to save the emperor's face, he gave the emperor the beautiful jade he wanted to send to his father's bed. After that, he never said anything about the finely crafted jade. He looked down on the emperor's uncle, and the emperor didn't even bother "He, that Teng Juan, is really beautiful, but it's a pity that the emperor's uncle hates Teng Juan so much because of Teng Yan that he won't even let her have a child." He said proudly, "I, the emperor's uncle, will 'love the house to the bird', no, hate the house." Jiwu has reached the extreme, as long as the emperor uncle disdains anyone, he will disdain anyone who associates with that person."
Hyun nodded in agreement:
"Although it cannot be said that this is absolutely the case, birds of a feather flock together, and people who come together will always have something in common. As the saying goes: Queens attract kings, princesses attract princes, beauties attract heroes, and prostitutes attract It attracts gangsters."
Ning Yan slapped her legs and laughed:
"That's right! What kind of saying is this? Why haven't I heard it?"
Hyun snorted proudly:
"You haven't heard much about it, but I've lived a few years longer than you."
The two of them were talking about being happy, but Ning Yan came back with an air-conditioner. The two looked at each other, and Ning Yan motioned for Hyun to speak, but Hyun just pretended to be stupid.
Ning Yan was helpless, thought for a long time, and asked:
"Is the vet coming soon?"
Ning Fang said in a low tone:
"I'm afraid it will take a while."
Hyun hurriedly answered:
"Then I'll go out and take a look. I'll try to stop the bleeding first, otherwise it won't be possible to save him when the veterinarian comes."
After saying that, he got up and walked out.
Ning Yan also quickly followed:
"That's right, I'm here to help."
Ning Fang said coldly from behind:
"You two stop!"
The two couldn't help but trembled, and looked back at him. Ning Fang still had a sullen face and a cold tone:
"How can we stop bleeding without so much medicine?"
Hyun stammered:
"You can also use a cloth band to strangle it, apply pressure to stop the bleeding, apply pressure to stop the bleeding."
Ning Feng took a long breath and calmed down:
"I'll get the cloth belt."
As soon as he finished speaking, he said:
"It needs to be clean and soaked in wine."
After saying that, he saw Ning Yan's ugly face, shrank his neck, and ran away with Ning Yan.
After Ning Yan gave the order, he went to the horse's house and saw Ning Yan looking at the horse's injury distressedly. Hyun knelt at the horse's head, very close to the horse's eyes, and touched the bridge of its nose to comfort it:
"Pony, don't be nervous. It's okay. It will be fine. Don't be afraid. Just hold on. The veterinarian will be here soon. Waiting for you to recover. What do you like to eat? Apples? Beans? Grass? As long as you like to eat. I'll get them all for you, it will be fine, don't worry."
Ning Fang secretly laughed:
If you like to eat, use the food to deceive the horse.
But when he saw her eyes that were so gentle that they could drip water, there were no other thoughts in his mind, not even the dissatisfaction with Teng Juan just now was gone. There was nothing but Hyun's gentle, watery eyes.
Hyun sniffed, and when she raised her head, she met Ning Feng's eyes. Ning Feng saw her red eyes, and his heart softened.
Hyun stood up and asked:
"Are the tapes ready?"
Ning Fang rubbed his forehead as if waking up from a dream, not knowing what was wrong with him:
"Ah, um, let them prepare it. Get as much as you can get first."
Soon, jars of wine were brought over. After the servants put them down, they hurried to prepare cloth belts.
Hyun washed his hands, soaked them in wine, and said to Ma:
"I'm going to pester you. It will hurt a lot. You have to endure it. For the sake of the sweet apples, beans and grass, you have to endure it!"
Ning Feng couldn't help but burst into laughter.
As soon as Hyun put the cloth tape on the wound, the horse started to struggle, but because of the loss of too much blood, he kicked his legs and raised his head, and was unable to move anymore. Hyun said that the pony must be strong, for apples and beans, Qingcao held back the pain and quickly wrapped the cloth around her hands. Ning Yu and Ning Yan couldn't stop laughing. Hyun also said righteously that they were inhumane, which made the two of them laugh even harder.
When the veterinarian came, Hyun had already disinfected the wound with wine and carefully removed the cloth bandage. The veterinarian prescribed some medicine and gave some instructions, then left, saying he would come back in three days.
After everything was arranged, Ning Yu asked the servants to clean up the two guest rooms for them to rest. While waiting in the study, Ning Yu looked at the ceiling and said:
"I found a hole on the inside of the horse's hind leg. It wasn't caused by a fall and scratching. It can't be scratched there."
Ning Fang didn't say anything, and Ning Yan said:
"Maybe it got it somewhere."
Hyun said nothing, closed his eyes and nodded.
After resting for a while, those who should return to the palace and those who should return to the palace have all left. Ning Fang went to the place where the horse was recovering from his injuries, and found the eye mentioned by Hyun on the hind leg. He carefully examined the wound and felt that it was poked by a sharp object. Judging from the depth of the wound, the strength was not very strong. When I thought about Ning Yan saying that Ning Hao was in the car and letting out a fake scream, I couldn't help but feel a cold air rushing to my head:
Does Ning Hao really want to kill Ning Yan too?!
Later, the horse's injury gradually improved, and Xun actually brought it apples, beans, and grass. Ning Yan asked Ning Yan to return them to Ning Hao, but she said that since it was Ning Yan who rescued them, she gave them to Ning Yan. In fact, Ning Yan She was angry, she hated Ning Yan and Hyun for being nosy, and she felt uncomfortable when she thought of the horse, so she simply didn't want it. She didn't want it, and Hyun was so eager to name the horse Lucky.
Fortunately, he lived happily in Ning Yan's house, and his life returned to peace.
I made an appointment with Ning Yan to go to his mansion to play. When I entered Prince Ji's mansion, I saw Ning Feng was there, and I felt happy. For some reason, I felt happy when I saw Ning Fang, wanted to get close to him, and wanted to bully him.
Today Ning Yan called two people here to ride horses. There is a small racecourse in Prince Ji's Mansion. Ning Yan sometimes comes here to chat with Ning Yan while riding horses. Therefore, since Ning Yan is here today, Then let's go for a ride together.
Hyun was happy. She had not ridden a horse much since she came here. Although the system of Kunyu Kingdom was based on the Central Plains, due to the influence of the climate, it still focused on animal husbandry and supplemented by agriculture. Therefore, Hyun wanted to ride a horse. It’s going to happen today!
However, when she saw Lucky brought with her, she was dumbfounded, because Lucky's back only had a blanket and no saddle. The same was true when she looked at Ning Fang and Ning Yan's horses. Looking at her expression, Ning Yan and Ning Yan Already knowing that Xuan couldn't ride a horse, Ning Yan looked at Xun very proudly.
Ning Fang led his horse and walked to Xuan:
"Let me help you up."
Hyun originally wanted to take advantage of Ning Yan, but when he saw Ning Yan's showing off, he became angry:
"I can go up."
Speaking of retreating behind Lucky, isn't it just vaulting? There is a lot of practice in physical education class.
She took a deep breath, ran up, and took off, everything was perfect together! However, she ran too fast and jumped too hard. Instead of riding on the horse's back, she hugged the horse's neck. Ning Yu and Ning Yan were stunned, and immediately Ning Yan laughed so much that he almost crawled to the ground. Fortunately, Ning Yan also raised him with spiritual energy. He kept shouting with his hooves and turned his head to look at Hyun with a smile on his face.
Xuan slapped it angrily:
"You laugh at me too, but no matter what, I'm here."
Ning Fang suppressed his smile, handed her a training halberd, and pointed to the straw man in front:
"Rush over and stab that straw man," Hyun took the halberd, and Ning Feng warned again, "Don't hold on too tightly."
Hyun didn't understand what he meant, but he still nodded, relaxed his grip, kicked Lucky, and rushed towards the straw man.
However, it was only after running that I realized how uncomfortable it was to be on horseback without a saddle. Not to mention the bumps, the key was the bumps, and because there were no stirrups to help, I had to try my best to maintain balance. But when I sat down smoothly, I felt the bumps again. No, it's simply too painful.
She was only paying attention to how to sit firmly without shaking, but she didn't realize that the straw man was approaching. However, she was still holding the halberd in a protruding position. After retreating, Hyun subconsciously held on to the halberd, but the reaction force pushed her off the horse along with the blanket. Ning Yan, with quick eyes and quick hands, rushed forward and hugged her, preventing her from falling.
Xuan knew that during the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Wei Qing and Huo Qubing invented the cavalry attack tactic in order to deal with the nomadic people's combat methods of not fighting the Central Plains army in close combat, so as to not fight long distances with the nomadic people who were good at riding and shooting, so as to shorten the distance between the two sides. The distance allowed the Central Plains army to take advantage of melee combat. However, Lucky was not running fast just now. This could push her off the horse. So how fast can the two people who are facing each other go on such a naked horseback? Okay, what kind of tactic would work?
While I was thinking, I heard Ning Yan behind me laughing:
"Uncle Emperor, let's put a saddle on Hyun. If this guy charges down like this, he will be disabled."
Hyun came back from her thoughts and found that she was still in Ning Yan's arms. She blushed, jumped down quickly, and shouted to Ning Yan:
"You didn't give me a saddle, you did it on purpose!"
Ning Yan did not argue with her and took Lucky down to put on the saddle.
After Ning Yan left, there were only two of them on the racecourse. Only then did Hyun feel uncomfortable. The warmth he felt when he was held by Ning Yan just now seemed to still be there. In order to get rid of the embarrassment, he asked Ning Yan:
"I heard that the current cavalry tactics have had an impact, but on such a naked horse, how can you not be dismounted by the opponent?"
Ning Yan looked at her and said:
"With a saddle, before there were no impact tactics, the saddle was almost nothing special. It was just a thicker pad. But after the invention of impact tactics, in order to prevent being pushed off the horse like you, the saddle bridge has been continuously increased."
Hyun still can't imagine what a saddle with a raised saddle bridge looks like.
While thinking about it, Ning Yan came back with luck. When he saw the saddle, his jaw almost couldn't close. It was completely like a "dent", and the person was stuck in the groove, and strangely, it was only on the left side. There is a stirrup.
Hyun asked in confusion:
"Why only one stirrup?"
Ning Yan looked at her even more puzzled:
"Of course I'm here to help mount the horse."
Hyun is still a little confused.
Seeing that she was puzzled, Ning Xin showed it to her personally. After getting on the horse, he stopped stepping on the stirrup, walked a few steps in the field, and asked Xun:
"Do you understand? There were no stirrups before, but as the saddle bridge continued to increase, it became increasingly difficult to mount the horse, so stirrups were used to help mount the horse."
Xuan understood that the stirrups at this time of love were only used for getting on and off the horse. No wonder when studying "The Biography of Lian Po and Lin Xiangru", there was a section of veteran general Lian Po who performed "a meal" in order to show King Zhao that he still had fighting ability. Dou rice, ten kilograms of meat, and the armor is mounted on the horse to show that it is still usable." At that time, I was still wondering, just by showing that the horse is mounted, it is usable? Now I finally know that wearing a battle armor without stirrups is very difficult for an elderly person. , it is really not easy to jump on a horse. Although the saddles in Lian Po's era did not have a higher saddle bridge, it is still not easy.
With Ning Yu's demonstration, Hyun easily got on the horse, but her feet were habitually stuck in the stirrups.
Ning Yan corrected:
"You don't need to put on the stirrups when you're on the horse."
Hyun nodded repeatedly and took his feet out. When he took the halberd to stab the straw man this time, he felt much better than before. Although there was still a risk of being pushed down, he lowered his center of gravity and stabbed with only the strength of his arms. If there is a sudden attack, it will be much safer, and Hyun also noticed that Ning Feng said not to hold on too tightly. If you feel that there is a danger of being pushed down, you can let go. Although losing a weapon on the battlefield is a very dangerous thing, But at least it's much safer than dismounting the horse.
After trying it several times and feeling better and better, Ning Yan shouted and threw a spear towards her.
When I tried again with a spear, the reaction force was much smaller than that of the halberd, but there was another problem. The halberd had a halberd blade, which could prevent the halberd from being inserted too deep into the human body and unable to be pulled out in time, but the spear did not. Hyun had it several times. The spear penetrated directly into the straw man's body, but could not be pulled out.
Stop Lucky and ask Ning Yu and Ning Yan:
"This spear is inserted too deep. It cannot be pulled out in time on the battlefield. Without the weapon, it will be fatal."
Ning Fang clamped the horse under him, walked to her, took the spear and said:
"The heads of the spears used in battle will be wrapped with metal, or flags, or flags to prevent them from being inserted too deep, and the cavalry will carry a few more spears and also hang knives."
Hyun thought for a while and saw on TV that cavalrymen hung swords or other weapons on their waists and had several spears tied to the sides of their saddles.
Ning Fang saw that Hyun was deep in thought, and looked at her feet that had stepped into the stirrups again. He had noticed just now that it was habitual for Hyun to step on the stirrups, especially during impact, as her feet almost never left the stirrups. He also tried several times and found that stepping into the stirrups could provide better assistance and was more comfortable than hanging with his legs:
No wonder Hyun asked why there was only one stirrup, but how did she find out? How did she know when everyone only regarded stirrups as tools for getting on and off horses?
Full of doubts, he looked at Hyun who had already gone to talk to Ning Yan.
As far as the current discoveries are concerned, the earliest single stirrup appeared in the Western Jin Dynasty, while the double stirrup appeared in the Five Hus and Sixteen Kingdoms period. I don’t know who said that “war promotes the development and progress of science and technology.” From the appearance of the single stirrup to the double stirrup Stirrups, less than a hundred years have passed between them. The war is a bastard, but sometimes you have to respect this damn bastard! Now people are not sure whether the stirrup was passed from the equestrian people to the non-equestrian people, or from the non-equestrian people to the equestrian people. However, it is certain that the emergence of stirrups, uh, in the words of the data, "has epoch-making significance!" It not only changed people's riding and fighting methods, but also promoted the heavy armored cavalry in Western Europe after the stirrups were introduced to Europe. The development of the feudal knight class also contributed to the formation of the feudal knight class, which had a profound impact on the history of the European Middle Ages.
Oops, a small stirrup is such an inconspicuous existence now, but it plays such an important role in history. Please allow me to go to the corner and get excited! (To be continued)
