On the left is Cangwu, on the right is the extreme west; Danshui is further to the south, and Ziyuan is to the north. It ends at Bachan and goes in and out of Jingwei;
They are opposite to each other. They are rushing back and forth from east to west, north and south, leaving the Qiaoqiu Bridge, walking along the river bank of the island, passing through Guilin, and passing through the wilderness. It is like a turbulent stream, and they go down along the river.
The mouth of the narrow mouth touches the dome of stone and stirs up piles of rocks. It boils with rage and surges.
——"Shanglin Fu" Sima Xiangru
On the night of the gift of the horse, Yang Yichan was uneasy, tossing and turning, and her emotions had not yet calmed down.
Early the next morning, King Yong Li Lin sent his servants to deliver two sets of polo uniforms of different colors and a bow stick. They were exquisitely made and looked like top-grade items for the palace.
When the girls saw the gorgeous items that King Yong gave to Yang Yichan, they couldn't help but chatter and gossip.
Zhong Yaya's polo equipment was originally the best in the team. When she saw it now, she couldn't help but admire: "It's really different from the royal equipment. Even if we have money, we folk can't buy such good things."
Hu Shaner winked and teased Yang Yichan: "Same people have different fates! We are all teammates of King Yong, but King Yong only gives you things. Do you think this is partiality or intentional? Haha."
Hu Shan'er deliberately ran against Zhong Yaya and said: "Yaya, you are unparalleled in youth and beauty, and you are the best in the army. I feel pity for you. Why is King Yong not tempted and doesn't give you golf equipment?"
Zhong Yaya puffed up her cheeks angrily and said: "Bah, you damn girl. If you can't eat the grapes, you will say the grapes are sour. Make fun of me. I think the imperial guard Liu Tingyan is quite interested in you. Every time you break through with the ball, he will
It was just a symbolic interception. When he defended me, he was fierce and brutal, as if he had a grudge in his previous life!" Zhong Yaya got angry thinking of that handsome and agile figure on the field.
Hu Shan'er pretended to be proud and said: "Really? Why didn't I see it? Who is Liu Tingyan? Oh, who was talking in sleep last night? It seems that he kept shouting this name."
Zhong Yaya was so angry that she grabbed Hu Shaner's arm and pinched her.
The girls will be overjoyed, playing and fighting together.
Huben Colonel Ji Guangchen looked at the girls from a distance, smiling thoughtfully.
…
In the past few days, the weather has been getting warmer, and it is early spring. People in Chang'an have walked out of their homes and went to the countryside to enjoy the flowers. Li Lin, the general of the Huben army, asked Ji Guangchen to adjust the teaching program and arrange for the entire Huben army to go out of camp for two days.
Lishan paddock hunting.
Large-scale hunting activities in Lishan Paddock are usually held in autumn. In autumn, the grass grows long and the orioles fly, and the horses are fat and strong, which is the best time for hunting. Spring is when all things are born, and it is also the time when birds and animals are in estrus and raise their young.
Spring hunting is not conducive to the reproduction of birds and animals, and has been an unkind act since ancient times. Therefore, it is not suitable to organize large-scale hunting activities in spring. Spring hunting is often based on galloping horses, moving hounds, and releasing falcons, supplemented by hunting.
All the female generals were extremely excited when they heard that they could go to the Lishan paddock to ride horses and enjoy the flowers and go for an outing. Only Li Xuexuan said that she was practicing cultivation and was ordained not to kill, so she asked for leave and refused to go.
In the next few days, the dressing room of the Palace Shang Palace Bureau sent a large number of royal tailors and maids to customize close-fitting hunting clothes for everyone. It is said that this is a benefit that Gao Lishi strives for for everyone. Women naturally love beauty and are happy to do so.
The ladies were very busy taking measurements to cut clothes and choosing styles.
The royal team was very efficient. In less than three days, the hunting uniforms of the female generals were ready. Once worn on the upper body, they fit the body perfectly and were of moderate elasticity. They were particularly agile in horseback riding and archery. More importantly, the style was unique, and they had the straightness and power of military uniforms.
It also fully demonstrates the unique charm of women. Even a rich girl like Zhong Yaya, who has many dresses, can't put them down and can't bear to take them off after wearing them.
The Shaofu Crossbow Office also equipped each female general with a set of hunting crossbows based on their arm strength.
The kitchen chefs are also actively preparing to ensure that there are no mistakes in logistics support. They work day and night to pack the pots and pans needed for camping one by one. In addition to dry food, vegetables, etc., they also prepared a large amount of seasonings, which can be used by then.
They bury pots and set up stoves in the paddock, and they kill and cook now.
The entire Xineiyuan military camp was immersed in a cheerful atmosphere.
The night before the hunt, the female generals turned off the lights very early and had a rest. Listening to the busy sound of the kitchen masters packing boxes in the distance, the girls became more and more excited. Unable to sleep, they put on their clothes and got up. Three or five people gathered together.
They stood on the bed, chatting and laughing quietly. For many girls, this was the first time in their lives to participate in a large-scale hunting, and they were both looking forward to it and nervous.
Hu Shan'er smiled at Zhong Yaya and said, "Which one do you most want to see during the hunt tomorrow? King Yong or General Tingyan?"
Zhong Yaya was as proud as a swan and said: "I heard that there will be many princes attending tomorrow, and there must be a more handsome one among them. That person may be the one for me!"
Hu Shan'er curled her lips and said, "Just brag, be careful of someone capturing your heart and crying to us every day!"
Zhong Yaya raised her neck with disdain on her face.
Hu Shan'er turned to Li Xuexuan and said, "Huang Oriole, you really don't want to go?"
Li Xuexuan stuck out her tongue and smiled, and said: "Actually, I want to go too! But since I promised Master, it's better not to go."
Zhong Yaya smiled and said: "Huangli, I met you for the first time when we were discussing swordsmanship in Shushan. I thought you were so cold and cold. After getting to know you better, I realized that you are also a crazy girl! No wonder you can play with Monkey Hu."
Hu Shaner was angry and punched her: "You're a bell duck, only my master can say these three words. See if I don't tear your mouth apart."
The three of them played and joked until they were so breathless that they went back to bed to sleep.
Yang Yichan was lying on the bed, listening to the three of them making a fuss, with a smile on her lips. A voice in her heart was also asking her: "Who do you want to see tomorrow?"
…
The next day finally came. At dawn, the camp gate of Xineiyuan opened wide, and hundreds of cavalry rushed out from the camp gate, their armor clanking, whizzing by. In the middle of the team was a heroic female general wearing a hunting suit!
…
An hour later, the Huben army arrived at the paddock at the foot of Lishan Mountain.
It was already bright at this time.
The slight cold in the morning sealed the land that had been soaked in black and shiny by the spring rain. The seedlings of autumn crops grew luxuriantly, the overwintering wheat fields turned brown after being trampled by livestock, the pale yellow wheat fields of spring crops and the red buckwheat.
The ground is separated from the dense autumn crops, showing a lush green color. The peaks of the mountains and the woods are like solitary green forests between the black soil fields and wheat fields of autumn crops. At this time, in the bright green
Among the overwintering crops, it has turned into a solitary forest of golden and bright red. Gray rabbits are moulting, litters of little foxes have begun to walk in all directions, and little jackals have grown bigger than dogs. This is spring.
The best time for hunting.
The sky seems to be melting, the wind has stopped, and the sky has been pulled down to the ground. The only things moving in the air are dust mist or tiny water droplets falling quietly from the morning mist. Transparent water droplets hang on the branches, dripping on the leaves that have just fallen.
Above. The earth is moistened, becomes darker and glossier, and within a short distance merges with the gloomy and moist curtain of fog. The forest smells of withered trees and hounds.
