Chapter 227 Bestowing a Horse
After a while the clothes were half dry, so Wang Hua put them on and left here.

This time, the two of them didn't do anything, and they didn't get any useful news, but they had an extremely exciting adventure.It's really a worthwhile thing.

Turning a corner, Wang Hua was about to beckon a carriage back with his hand, but someone stopped him and said, "Our Highness invites you."

Wang Hua looked back and saw a large teahouse with an exquisite carriage parked at the entrance of the teahouse. Wang Hua had seen it before. It was Princess Taiping's luxurious carriage.After thinking about it, I walked in.He was taken to a private room, and there were two people sitting in the private room.One is the pretty and extravagant Princess Taiping, and the other is a handsome man.

Wang Hua is currently holding an official position under the fifth rank, because he is not a Beijing official or an important official, so he is not qualified to go to the early court.But Wu Zetian was often called in, and with this big wedding, some officials came to celebrate, and I knew many officials, and I also knew this handsome man, Gao Jian.Princess Taiping's concubine.

Now Wang Hua sees too many beautiful men.For example, the younger ones, there are several young people in the Wu family who definitely inherited Wu Zetian's blood, and they are all extremely handsome.A little older, the Zhang brothers around 30 years old.There is also Wu Sansi, a beautiful and familiar man who has been around for almost 40 years.When I saw Gao Jian, I was not surprised by his appearance.

Seeing Wang Hua come in, Gao Jian retreated.Princess Taiping asked Wang Hua to sit down and asked, "I ask you, where were you hiding just now?"

She couldn't understand this matter, and she was a little reconciled.

"Sorry, just now I was hiding in the water tank and broke a pen holder for ventilation." Wang Hua didn't hide it.Now that Princess Taiping knows, it doesn't help.

"Why are you avoiding me?"

"You must not have the heart to harm others, and you must not have the heart to guard against others. It is better to be careful."

"You still remember that you promised Gu the year before last, once you pass the high school entrance examination, you will come to my house to see Gu, why didn't you come?"

I really forgot about this matter. Now that Wang Hua thinks about it, some things are more clear. I am afraid that because of this, Princess Taiping is a little dissatisfied. It is estimated that she also participated in the disappearance of Li Chiying.Wang Hua said again: "I was in the palace, and Shangguan Zhihao once wrote me a poem. The blue willows are pink, and the crisp hands clasp the emerald doors. An apricot emerges from the wall, and a pair of butterflies fly on the wall. Then I returned a poem. This is a poem, I don’t feel dawn when I sleep in spring, I hear birds singing everywhere, the sound of wind and rain at night, I know how many flowers fall.”

As Wang Hua talked, he looked at Princess Taiping and her face. He had a vague idea of ​​the many standing in line now, but he really didn't know where Shangguan Xiao Wan'er was standing.

Seeing that Princess Taiping was a little sullen, he said sarcastically, "She is really a big kid, and she wants to join in."

Wang Hua thought to herself, Shangguan Xiaowan is not young anymore, I am even younger, and I don't want to join in, but you just drag me to join in.What is the reason for this?
Turning her head again, she looked at Wang Hua and said, "Gu Geng doesn't believe that you have such a good character."

"Did I say I have a good character?" Anyway, it's a poem, so it has a meaning no matter how you look at it.

"You want to go all the way to the dark with us now?" Princess Taiping asked sharply.

"Your Highness, I don't understand anymore. You said that I went to Hei with you all the way, and King Liang also said that I went with them all the way to Hei. If Goro said it again, if the Crown Prince said it again, or other people said it again, would it be possible to say that I will go to Heihe with you all the way?" Will the minister be torn apart?" Wang Hua also said with a sarcastic expression.

After he finished speaking, he stood up and said, "The emperor wants me to be a lonely minister. He is afraid that she will be old and unable to suppress some people, so he asked me to stay in the border gate for a few years, so as to give way to the limelight."

These words finally made Princess Taiping's complexion change.

It's still Lao Wu's gold-lettered signboard that works, once it comes out, all ghosts will stay away.Wang Hua said again: "The first thing I have to say is that I dare not disobey the order. Even if I dare to disobey the order, it will also harm the people who defected, and even myself. This marriage has already given people infinite reverie. Why do you have to obey what you say? Your Highness, I would like to trouble you to convey a word to Xiang Wang on behalf of the minister. The minister will still live in his house tomorrow, and give him a step down. He will take office immediately the day after tomorrow. This family minister does not need it. It’s just a small Chi Ying is only ten years old, don't scare her."

Finished talking and left.

Back home, Dafeng looked at him strangely: "Why are your clothes wet?"

"It's okay, I was bitten by a mad dog and hid in the water."

"What mad dog?" Dafeng was puzzled.

"Sister, stop asking, go and call Xiao Jiu here."

Dafeng blushed, then looked at him angrily, thought about it and left.After a while, Zhang Jiuling was called over, and Wang Hua gathered the whole family together. First, he said to Wang Yi and his mother, "Father, Mother, this marriage is basically over. You can pack up your things now, and we will leave tomorrow." If you still can't see the princess, go back to Qingshangou immediately. Luoyang is a good place, but we don't want to stay here."

The two nodded their heads.It seems to understand some truths now, staying in Luoyang is definitely not as prosperous as outside, there are countless dangers inside, all of which forced this son to the border to escape.

"And Li Hong, you have to leave soon, go to the south to find Song and ask them, and help them arrange things over there."

"Erlang, I want to go with you."

After Li Hong finished speaking, Aunt Gongsun nodded.

"Li Hong, this is going to the army, it's not easy to bring female family members with you. And Aunt Gongsun, don't overthink it. Your father is in Hebei, and I went to Hedong. It seems that it is not far away, but there is a Taihang Mountain in the middle. , It’s like thousands of miles away. You can’t see them either. Go. After working hard for the past few years, if I arrange it well, I can live a peaceful life in the future, and the family will no longer have to be separated.” Wang Hua Looking at Zhang Jiuling again, he said, "You have a small official position now, so there should be no major problems. But you will soon be my brother-in-law, and I have a word for you. No matter what you see, hear, or think in your heart. I just thought, I can’t say it, because your status is very low, even if you say it, it’s useless. Not only will you cause a murder, but it will also affect my family and your family. So now you are still studying, learning experience, learning Do things for people."

This is also a good word.Zhang Jiuling nodded.

After Wang Hua finished speaking, he said: "That's it, everyone prepares to go."

He didn't want to stay in this palace for a day, and he couldn't leave now, otherwise everyone would immediately think that it was Xiang Wang who did this.This is tantamount to actively forcing Xiang Wang not to go down the stairs. Once Xiang Wang wipes face with Princess Taiping, he will be in real danger.

Here Wang Hua is still sitting in a chair thinking about his thoughts, while the family members over there start to pack things quietly.After a while, eunuchs came to the palace, and this matter was out of control, and Lao Wu finally found out.Send someone to invite Wang Hua to inquire.

Empress Wu Zetian bestowed the seat, and then asked angrily, "What's going on here!"

This marriage was bestowed by her personally, and it has important significance, and it is related to a good move.Now that everyone is gone, how can the marriage be held?

Wang Hua smiled slightly and said: "Your Majesty, it's okay. Some people don't want the minister to marry the Lord of the Nine Princesses. As soon as the minister leaves the capital and takes office, the princess may appear on the streets of Luoyang immediately. And now that the minister's status is humble, it's just a matter of time In a few years, make a little contribution. When the time comes to marry the princess, it will be a matter of course."

"You don't have to hide it, the king of Xiang asked you, what did you talk about?"

"Nothing, I just hope that the minister will not leave the capital. This is for the sake of the princess and the minister."

"Really, if he disagrees, I will tell him that there will be Xiao Ba instead of Xiao Jiu."

Wang Hua almost broke out in a sweat, and there was no end to it.Xiao Ba is Xiao Yuzhen's older sister, that Princess Jinxian.This age is more suitable, but Wang Hua is even more unfamiliar with her.Wang Hua paused and said: "Your Majesty, I still don't think there is any need to worry. The first minister has not made an inch of merit. Although His Majesty has made an exception for his official position, it is always a matter of injustice. It will be better after a few years of hard work. The second minister is also a little younger, no matter the eighth princess or the ninth princess, the age is also a little younger. After a few years, everyone will grow up, and the minister will do something for the king to see, and it will not be the time This has happened for two days.”

"Very good, you are very knowledgeable, no wonder the old man thinks highly of you. Let me ask you again, this little girl Taiping, what do you want from you?"

The old lady who dares to love knows everything. No wonder the history books record that Wei Yuanzhong was so loyal to Lao Wu. In the end, Lao Wu almost killed him. When Zhang Shuo and others tried their best to save him, Lao Wu said: "Yuan Zhong, go!"

Don't suppress them, these people are turned upside down.But what was suppressed was only the branches, not the roots, and in the end Lao Zhang got his way.The winner is the king, otherwise history books would be written in another way.

Wang Hua replied carefully: "Your Majesty, there is nothing else. The year before last, Your Highness summoned the minister, and the minister promised to visit the door after passing the examination, but the minister neglected this matter. It happened that His Highness saw Xiao Chen passed by on the street. He called Xiao Chen in and questioned him."

"Then I'll ask you again, what happened to the Hongmen Banquet in Xiao Bao'er's small house?"

Wang Hua even wanted to die. Could it be that when the old lady ordered N big internal spies [-] to [-] to help the old lady find out these boring things?Know this too?

Wang Hua replied carefully again: "Your Majesty, I have asked Her Majesty the Princess because of the disappearance of the Princess. This matter cannot be made public until the truth is revealed, and I have no power in my hands, so I have to entrust Her Majesty to help you." .Today’s gathering was just for this purpose. But Princess Taiping broke in suddenly, wanting to see Her Royal Highness Princess Anle’s new house. At that time, there was a suspicion of Guadali Lixia. Therefore, the minister hid. There is nothing else.”

"These gangsters, really don't worry, they can't be like Goro and Liulang!" Wu Zetian said sadly.

Wang Hua slandered in his heart, and Zhang Yizhi's brothers were also worried. He wanted to save his worry, let's go back ten years and make sure that one is better than the other.But dare not say.

"Forget it, let's postpone this marriage. I won't make everyone laugh if the bride doesn't show up tomorrow." Speaking of this, Wu Zetian sat in a chair safely. three years.

Wang Hua thanked the decree again.In fact, even if it was postponed for three years, he didn't want to get married. The little loli was still a little loli, and she didn't grow up much.But what will happen after three years is unknown.There are countless variables in this.Especially Lao Wu, who may be confined in Shangyang Palace in three years, and died of depression.

His thanks came from the heart.Without this marriage, without an important shackle, he may be able to play freely when the time is right.

Wu Zetian said again: "Also, there are a few good horses in my palace, which were brought as tribute by the Turkic people. It won't be of much use in the palace. Pick two and give one to your master."

Wang Hua thanked you again.The Turks mentioned by Lao Wu are the Western Turks, and most of the horses they pay tribute to are Tianshan horses, which are the best horses now.Tubo horses are also good, but that is compared to the thin air on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau.In the north, it may not be comparable to Tianshan horses.It also depends on the situation. If it is hard-working, it is still a Mongolian horse, which is the current northern horse breed.But Wang Hua didn't want to bring hundreds of small soldiers to fight all the way to Xiaohai (Lake Baikal). There was no need for that, let alone the ability.

With two good horses, the combat effectiveness on the battlefield will be increased by half, which can maximize the protection of personal safety.In particular, Li Shimin rode BMW all his life in battle. In the battle of Pingdou Jiande, the young horse under his crotch was hit by five arrows, and it still flew with four hooves, carrying Li Shimin to fight the enemy bravely. Outstanding achievement!

Come to the stable happily.There are indeed dozens of war horses, but Wang Huashu has read a lot.Xiangma is not very expert, so let's follow the book.Combining the characteristics of a good horse with the characteristics of a good Tianshan horse can be identified.The head is medium and large, straight and long, handsome, short ears, slender neck, slightly raised, high armor, narrow chest.The limbs are long, the hind limbs are knife-shaped, the bones are strong, the tendons and ligaments are well developed, and there are traces of palm pillows (commonly known as night eyes). The hooves are hard and can run quickly on hard ground.

Why do you have to be like this to be a good horse? Some Wang Hua can understand it, but some don't.Regardless, just follow the book.

Picking and picking, half of them fit this feature.

Seeing Wang Hua's appearance, the little official who watched the horse knew that he was a rookie, so he laughed and ran over, very happy, this little guy is omnipotent, and now he is very surprised to see him making an embarrassment.He said: "Captain Wang, if you don't dislike XX, how about letting XX choose for you?"

Seeing that Wang Hua was suffering from a headache, it would be better for those who are able to work harder, and thanked him repeatedly.

Pointing to a few of them, the official said: "Among the war horses, these are the best. The horses are all in their prime, and their physique is also good."

And explain the advantages and disadvantages of horses one by one.

Wang Hua thought for a while, and picked a red war horse in the middle, Guan Yunchang's red rabbit horse!The Three Kingdoms has been watched several times.This is for my own spare, but it seems that I don't know how to play big swords, but I have learned a lot of hammering skills from Kong Heizi.not beautiful.

I picked a black war horse for Kong Heizi, a black horse, thinking about Kong Heizi's black face, and paired with this black horse, it is all black from top to bottom, what is it, a match made in heaven!The whole one flies.Wang Hua laughed.

But if Kong Heizi knew what he was thinking, he would definitely hit him on the head, what, dare I become your little brother!
