Wu Zhui moved his horse's hooves and trotted forward.
Xiao Lingyue also got on the horse, told Beibei to hold on to the saddle, shook the reins, and chased after him.
Two horses, one black and one red, passed through the racecourse back and forth, exited the palace from the side door on the other side, and went straight to the royal racecourse.
The Royal Racecourse is the largest and most spacious racecourse in the capital of Northern Qin. It houses hundreds of horses of different types and has various terrains such as grassland, sandy land, flat land, and hills. The facilities are extremely complete.
Most ancient people loved horses. Among the six arts of the gentleman, riding and archery also include equestrian skills.
The Northern Qin Dynasty also worshiped martial arts. Whether they were royal nobles or members of aristocratic families, the young masters and ladies were proud of their beautiful equestrian skills. They often went to the royal racecourse in groups to have fun and compete with each other in their equestrian skills.
Because of its large area, the Royal Racecourse is located close to the outskirts of Beijing and is connected to the mountains in the outskirts of Beijing, making the terrain more steep and changeable.
Except for the autumn hunting period, the royal racecourse is generally not closed, and all officials' children can come and go at will.
Of course.
Ordinary people cannot enter unless someone leads them.
It was also Xiao Lingyue's first time here. With Zhan Beihan leading the way, the guards on duty at the racecourse entrance moved away from the roadblock and all knelt on the ground: "I have met His Highness King Yi!"
"No courtesy." Zhan Beihan responded calmly, then urged his horse to go in.
Xiao Lingyue urged her horse to follow behind.
As soon as you enter, you will see an extremely wide world, with lawns and sandy areas connected, and the clatter of horse hooves can be heard like a torrential rain.
Xiao Lingyue heard someone cheering loudly.
"pretty!"
"Come on, Miss Meng!"
"Hurry, hurry, we'll catch up soon!"
"Amazing!"
Waves of exclamations and noises kept coming, and Xiao Lingyue listened curiously.
On the grass field not far away, someone seemed to be competing. Four or five horses of the same color were galloping freely. Sitting on the horses were young girls in riding clothes, all of them riding horses and whipping their whips, clear and clear.
The sound echoed with the sound of horse hooves.
"drive--"
At the end and starting points of the competition field, there was a large group of people gathered together, all of whom were young nobles, both men and women.
Everyone was wearing riding clothes, and their figures were extremely beautiful. The men were handsome and the women were heroic. There were endless cheers and the atmosphere was very warm.
"It is said that the Northern Qin Dynasty worshiped martial arts, and everyone, both men and women, old and young, loved riding. It seems to be true."
Xiao Lingyue glanced over and saw an eleven or twelve-year-old boy and girl mixed in the crowd, jumping up and down with excitement and cheering.
Zhan Beihan sat on the horse and also saw the large group of people, his sharp eyebrows twisted slightly.
"Eh? Aren't those Uncle Xiang Wang and Uncle Cheng Wang? What a coincidence, they are also coming to race today?" Han Han sat on Wu Zui's back, sitting high and seeing far away, and he immediately saw the center of the crowd.
They are King Xiang and King Cheng.
Zhan Beihan said angrily: "Two guys who are full and have nothing to do!"
The prince was almost crazy with his work during the previous court. In the past two days, he had been working all night to thoroughly investigate the smuggling case of the Ministry of Industry. Even if Zhan Beihan did not go to court, he could still feel the atmosphere of bloodshed.
Fortunately, King Xiang and King Cheng still had time to go to the royal racecourse and lead a large group of children from aristocratic families to race horses for fun.
The man let out a "tsk" in his heart, and decided to go back to the East Palace to remind the prince, don't just think about doing it yourself, so many younger brothers are idle, and you should arrest the strong man.
This saves them all from having nothing to do and occupying the racecourse here.
"I saw King Xiang and King Cheng. They are surrounded by descendants of Northern Qin's aristocratic families, right? Do you want to go over and say hello?" Xiao Lingyue urged Zaohong's horse forward, keeping the horse's head level with Zhan Beihan, and asked
.
"No!" The man refused coldly, "Let's go to the other side..."
He hasn't finished speaking yet.
Suddenly, a high-pitched and excited voice sounded: "His Royal Highness King Yi!" This chapter has been completed!
