In the midsummer, Bianjing Yujie willows and willows, peaches and plums, are as splendid as brocade.
Mu Huai was out on a trip, wearing a blue blouse trimmed with auspicious grasses and geese, and wearing a scorpion made by Rong Xi himself on his waist. When he strode towards the Huaguixuan car, he attracted the passing women and girls They all looked sideways.
Everyone sighed, what a handsome and noble son of Zhilan Yushu.
The eyebrows are reserved, handsome and eye-catching, but the aura is a bit too attractive, and it seems that his temper is not very good.
But people in high positions generally have this kind of temperament. When everyone was guessing his identity, he had already sat down in the Xuan car and ordered the driver to drive forward.
What others don't know is that there are actually servants in ordinary clothes around this car, they are always watching the movements around them, secretly protecting Mu Huai.
Mu Huai just went to the Angle and Bridle Courtyard just now, and now he is going to Fengqiu Street to pick up Yin Cheng who is in the barracks, and he plans to go to the Qiji Courtyard with Yin Cheng.
After the group arrived at the Qiji Courtyard, the left and right horse supervisors were here to greet them. After Mu Huai and Yin Cheng got off the car, Mu Huai asked the two horse supervisors to take him and Yin Cheng to see what Daqi had done this year. The official horse raised.
According to different purposes, the official horses of the Qiji Academy will write left, right, thousand, up, and forever on their bodies with pigments that are not easy to fade.
In this way, it not only indicates who is in charge of these horses and where they are used, but also facilitates the management of the horse supervisor of the Qiji Academy.
The Zuoma Supervisor brought a bay red horse and said respectfully to Mu Huai, "Your Highness, this is the fattest and strongest horse this year. Big."
Mu Huai and Yin Cheng looked at each other, then walked up to the horse, frowned and looked at the horse, but still felt that the horse was average in appearance, not the best treasure.
Horses are the foundation of armored soldiers and the great use of the country.
When he attacked Jin and Ye in his previous life, those two countries were located in the south, not far from Daqi.
It wasn't until he got the idea of cutting down Yan that he suffered a big loss due to bad horses during the war. At that time, he realized the importance of revising Daqi's horse administration.
Today he saw that the official horses of the Qiji Academy were thinner and less energetic than the other, and they looked listless.
Not to mention fighting, it is difficult for these horses to run for dozens of miles.
Daqi now has a lot of infantry and very few cavalry. Only generals or soldiers with high ranks in the army can be equipped with horses.
Seeing that Mu Huai's face was gloomy, Yin Cheng comforted him, "Qi territory is not as good as the Falcon State or the Yan State. It has its own grasslands. The north is indeed more suitable for raising horses than the south. There are lush grass and abundant water sources, and horses can also live there. Galloping on the prairie makes you fatter and stronger. Anyway, Your Highness wants to buy horses from the Ugh country, so it’s better to relax. Every country has different rich products. The treasures that I have in Daqi are naturally better than those in the Ugh kingdom. many."
Mu Huai frowned and listened to Yin Cheng's advice, and replied in a low voice: "Well, it makes sense."
Then he got on the horse's back, and after pulling up the rein neatly, he whipped the horse's back with a bit of resentment.
Horses can't do it, so how can you fight with people
Thinking of this in his heart, Mu Huai had reined in his horse and galloped around the racecourse several times, his figure was heroic and gallant.
The steed neighed slightly, he reined in the horse hard, and the big red horse's front hooves twitched.
After the iron hoof hit the ground again, Mu Huai took the reins, thinking back to Yin Cheng's words just now.
Even if he bought a young horse from the Falcon Kingdom this time, if there is no suitable place for the horse to grow, the horse still cannot become a good horse.
Although Qijiyuan has a large horse farm, it is not the most suitable place for growing horses.
But it is indeed wise to buy a foal from Falcon.
No matter how the native official horses of Daqi are bred, they are all inferior breeds of poor quality.
The horse breeds of the Falcon State are at least pure in blood, and they have more advantages than the native horses of Daqi from the moment they are born.
Mu Huai swung his whip again, and said in a low voice, "Drive."
The bay red horse galloped again, Mu Huai glanced at the scene retreating from the corner of his eye, and thought to himself, after buying the horses from the Hu Kingdom, the Qiji Court should also be moved.
*****
Falcon country camp.
In summer, the grassland is vast, the sky is blue, and the clouds are like brocade.
The golden eagle let out bursts of chirping and galloped in the sky.
Tuoba Yu was wearing a narrow purple gown, a rhinoceros jade belt around his waist, and deer leather boots on his feet. The young man looked up at the golden eagle hovering in the sky, with a tall and thin figure.
He wears the hair style that is common to young noblemen from the Ulgar Kingdom. His black hair is partly loose, and his brown pupils show a faint amber color under the sun's rays.
Tuoba Yu stretched out his arm alone, and also picked up the bone whistle hanging around his neck and blew it. The golden eagle soon stopped on his powerful arm.
The golden eagle's eyes are very sharp, but Tuoba Yu's eyes are sharper than this golden eagle's eyes, even a bit more bloody and ruthless.
He put the leather blindfold on the golden eagle's head so that only the beak was exposed.
The golden eagle is a very wild bird of prey. If you don't cover its eyes, it will easily become violent and hurt others.
This golden eagle was a gift from Khan Luo Lu when he first adopted him, and it followed him when it was a young bird.
This golden eagle was raised by himself.
The golden eagle he is proud of can hunt wolves. Dozens of wolves have all died tragically under the sharp claws of this golden eagle that fell from mid-air.
At this time, the servants in Luo Lu Khan's tent found Tuoba Yu, and respectfully said: "My son, Khan is looking for you."
Tuoba Yu nodded lightly, and entered the tent with the golden eagle.
In the tent, Luo Lu Khan was making out with a pretty Ugly girl, but Tuoba Yu hurriedly avoided his sight.
Luo Lu Khan's smiling face sank just now, and he said to the girl in his arms, "Go down first."
The girl's clothes were not neat, and she responded timidly immediately, wrapped her body tightly, and fled in a hurry.
Tuoba Yu chose the low desk in the tent to sit on the floor, and the servants immediately presented raw meat wrapped in lacquerware with a dagger on it.
Tuoba Yu picked up the dagger, cut the bloody raw meat, and fed it to the beak of the blindfolded golden eagle.
Luo Lu Khan asked at this time: "The state of Qi wants to buy horses from the state of Hu, and the prince of Qi will also get married next to Jinming Lake. This time, the second son and young daughter of the majesty will also go with him. I heard that The surname of the Crown Princess is Rong, which is the same as your previous surname in the Central Plains. Didn’t you always want to find your sister in the Central Plains? It seems that the Crown Princess of Qi State was also the daughter of a criminal minister. Could it be your sister? "
Tuoba Yu looked pale, and said: "Son, I don't know."
Although he said this to Luo Lu Khan, he was certain in his heart that the Daqi Crown Princess was his sister Rong Xi.
Before Tuoba Yu was kicked out of Qi by Mu Huai a few months later, he was surprised that the man could recognize his identity. After returning to the Ughur Kingdom, he also sent someone to investigate secretly, but he did not expect that the man his sister was following was actually the Prince of Qi.
When he thought of that night, when his sister called herself a servant girl and bowed her knees in front of him, knelt and kowtowed, he felt resentful.
For so many years, he was able to survive in this foreign country, from a baby who knew nothing about the world, to the current son of Khan, and the various hardships he endured were unimaginable to ordinary people.
In order to survive, he also drank blood like a beast.
I can persevere because I always have a belief in my heart.
He wanted to find his sister Rong Xi, and then never separate from her.
He must become a strong man and protect his sister.
Tuoba Yu knew that Rong Bing, his biological mother, and grandmother had all passed away.
In this world, apart from Luo Lu Khan who regards him as his own son, Rong Xi is the only relative left for him.
His original name was Rong Hui, and he was the concubine son of Rong Bing, the minister of Daqi Taichang Temple.
His biological father, Rong Bing, did not love him, and even deliberately alienated him. At that time, his biological mother did not dare to love him too much because of Rong Bing.
Grandmother is not in good health, and often lingers on the sick bed.
But his elder sister Rong Xi treated him the best, and Tuoba Yu also spent the longest time with Rong Xi.
In Tuoba Yu's heart, the most important person to him in the world is his sister Rong Xi.
Tuoba Yu still remembered that he was beaten by Rong Bing because of his stubbornness at that time, his mother did not dare to stand up to protect him, but his elder sister Rong Xi ignored the whip waving in his father's hand, stood in front of him, and stood in his place. Withstood the beating.
At that time, his grandmother often mentioned the matter of his elder sister's marriage, and he felt extremely unhappy when he thought of his elder sister's marriage.
Tuoba Yu didn't like other men getting close to Rong Xi, even when Rong Xi's personal servant girl got closer to her, he would cry on purpose to attract Rong Xi's attention.
He was only five or six years old at the time, but when he thought that Rong Xi would marry another man in a few years, he was both disappointed and jealous.
It would be fine if my elder sister didn't marry, and she would only spoil him for the rest of her life.
Tuoba Yu played with the dagger, but unknowingly cut his index finger.
Blood gushed out, and the golden eagle also smelled the bloody smell from its master, fluttered its wings and became a little excited.
Tuoba Yu ignored his wounds, his eyes were slightly hard, and he whispered to the golden eagle, "Shh."
The golden eagle immediately stopped flapping its wings.
At this time, Tuoba Yu said to Luo Lu Khan: "Aye, I also want to join the Uganda caravan this time."
This time, no matter what method he uses, he will take his sister back.
