Chapter 348: There are many ideas for exploring spring (seeking the moon at the beginning of the mon
Ningguofu, in the evening, the sky is filled with sunset.
After Huifang Garden, after a few hundred steps through the garden with withered flowers, you can see a flat school ground after passing through a wall.
It was late at night, and the afterglow of the setting sun shone on it, adding a bit of openness and tranquility to the school grounds.
In the southwest corner of the school grounds, there is a temporary canopy erected with wooden frames and curtains to protect it from the wind. There are maids inside to serve refreshments.
Jia Heng changed into a warrior uniform and was dressed smartly. He led the two ponies, stood up in the school yard, looked at Xiangyun and Tanchun, and asked: "Have you become familiar with the nature of horses these days?
"
After he returned from Beijing Camp today, he met Xiangyun and Tanchun who were pestering them to learn horse riding, so he brought them over to learn horse riding.
Since I bought the horse in Dongshi, I have been busy with general affairs these days, leaving early and returning late.
Jia Heng took advantage of the situation and did not rush to teach Xiangyun and Tanchun how to ride. Instead, he first let Xiangyun and Tanchun get familiar with the horse's temperament.
Xiangyun Tanchun said: "We are all familiar with it."
Seeing the maroon pony, which was almost as tall as a man, Xiangyun had a red apple-round face and looked eager to try.
Tan Chun's beautiful face also showed signs of nervousness and excitement.
"Brother Heng, shall we get on the horse now?" Xiangyun asked impatiently.
Jia Heng smiled and said: "We'll talk about it later. First, check the saddle, reins and other saddle equipment, and also check the condition of the horse."
As he said that, he began to carefully check the saddle and the condition of the horse. After doing this, he raised his eyes and told Tanchun and Xiangyun, "You can't skip these. You should also pay attention to these when riding horses in the future."
At this moment, the young man is wearing a sky blue brocade robe, and his elegant face is as elegant as a crown jade. There is no longer the cold and clear color of the past. Perhaps it is facing the light golden sunset, and the lines are soft, warm, and even a little unreal.
"Sister Yun, third sister, do you remember these steps?" Jia Heng looked a little more serious, stared at Tan Chun and Xiang Yun, and asked again.
Xiangyun nodded and said: "Remember, you need to check the saddle and look at the horse's demeanor."
"Where is the third sister?"
Tan Chunwen asked himself, and then he recovered from his absent-minded state. His clear eyes flashed, and the young man's light and shadow reflected in the watery eyes were sparkling. The little chicken pecked the rice and replied: "Remember,
Brother Heng."
"Then tell me." Jia Heng asked with a serious expression.
Tanchun: "???"
Looking at Tanchun with a question mark on his face, Jia Heng couldn't help but stretched out his hand to rub the air bangs in front of Tanchun's forehead and said, "What are you thinking about every day?"
Tan Chun's jade face was slightly hot, and her eyes were lowered. Fortunately, at this moment, Xiang Yun answered: "Third sister, check the saddle first, and then look at the horse."
Tanchun nodded in agreement, indicating that he would write it down.
Jia Heng asked two people to check the saddle carefully, then stopped the two people and asked: "Okay, which one of you two comes first."
Tan Chun's eyes flickered, looking at Xiang Yun aside, and said, "Let Sister Yun come first."
Jia Heng nodded and said, "Then Sister Yun will come first. Sister Yun, come here and I will help you mount the horse."
A cute and sweet smile appeared on Xiangyun Pingguo's round face. He came closer and said, "Brother Heng, I'm here."
Then, he stepped on the stirrup, said "Ouch", and fell to the side.
"Hold the saddle and push your left foot first."
Jia Heng quickly stretched out his hand to hold the girl's waist. He was speechless for a moment. He felt that teaching Tanchun and Xiangyun to ride horses might make him uncomfortable. This was teaching female drivers how to drive.
Xiangyun's cheeks turned red with embarrassment, he straightened his clothes and said, "Brother Heng, I forgot."
"puff……"
Tan Chun couldn't help laughing at first, covering his mouth and smiling sweetly, his big handsome eyes filled with brilliant light.
Xiangyun pursed her lips, as if she was a little embarrassed by Tanchun's teasing, and snorted softly: "Third sister is still laughing at me, it's a shame I reminded you just now."
The smile on Tanchun's face faded slightly and he said, "Sister Yun, I'm not going to laugh anymore. You should study hard."
Jia Heng was a little helpless at the fuss of the two little girls and said: "Okay, don't waste time, get on the horse quickly."
He helped Xiang Yun switch out his left foot, get on the stirrup, turn over and mount the colt.
"That's it, try to be as neat as possible in your movements." Seeing that Xiangyun's movements were quite crisp, Jia Heng encouraged him.
Xiang Yun turned to look at Jia Heng, with novelty and joy on his face, and said with a smile: "Brother Heng, come up too."
Although it is a small pony, it can still carry two people.
"I'll hold the horse's reins and lead you for a while. You can feel what it's like to ride on a horse." Jia Heng smiled, turned to Tan Chun, and said, "The third sister is also following along.
, let me tell you what to pay attention to."
Xiangyun said "oh" obediently.
Tan Chun also nodded and followed Jia Heng forward.
Jia Heng led the horse and walked slowly on the school grounds, constantly talking about important points to pay attention to.
After walking for about half a circle, Jia Heng warned again: "The most important thing when riding a horse is the coordination of human and horse movements. The up and down movements follow the ups and downs, otherwise it is easy to hurt the thigh meat. Third sister, I will take Sister Yun to run first."
For a while, Third Sister can watch first."
Tanchun nodded.
Jia Heng had already saddled up the horse and sat firmly on the saddle cushion behind Xiang Yun. As soon as he sat firmly, the fragrance of a girl with cardamom tips in early February suddenly floated between her nose.
Xiangyun swayed for a moment and said quickly: "Brother Heng, please hold me tight later and don't fall down."
Jia Heng's mind was empty and he said softly: "Sister Yun, don't worry, I'll take you with me for a while."
As he spoke, he walked through Xiangyun's armpit and held the horse's reins.
Xiangyun didn't notice anything strange, and even leaned back, chuckling and saying: "Brother Heng, then hold me tight."
Jia Heng held the horse's reins with one hand and drove the horse to move. It walked in a circle along the school grounds, then with a "drive" sound, it gradually accelerated.
As the speed increased, Xiangyun held the saddle tightly with his small hands, a look of fear appeared on his face, and said hurriedly: "Brother Heng, why don't you go slower? It's a little bumpy, and I'm a little dizzy."
Jia Heng said: "I'm going to ride on the bumps. You can try to move along with the horse."
Xiangyun did as he was told, moving up and down according to the frequency of the horse. Sure enough, he saw a lot of improvement. He was pleasantly surprised and said: "Brother Heng, this is so funny. It seems that he is no longer dizzy."
Jia Heng's expression became strange for a moment, and he clearly felt the youthful aura of the girl in front of him, and said softly: "Well, Sister Yun, actually the range of movements... doesn't have to be that big."
Xiangyun said "Okay", with an apple-like face with a hint of plateau red, whether from shame or tiredness, the blush became more and more beautiful, like a blooming begonia.
Jia Heng warned again: "Sister Yun, don't hold the saddle tightly with your hands, hold the reins in my hand, and I will lead you to ride."
"Are you trying to catch this?" Xiangyun did as he was told and grabbed the horse's reins.
"Yes, that's it."
Jia Heng then took Xiang Yun and started jogging along the school field. The school field was as big as a football field in later generations. He rode for more than five laps, about two kilometers away.
Xiangyun was panting a little while going up and down, and there was a slight sweat on the back of his neck, mixed with the fragrance of powder, and the sweet and greasy fragrance overflowed.
"Okay, let's get here first." Seeing that it was almost done, Jia Heng tightened the reins of the horse and the horse's speed became even slower.
Xiangyun was also a little tired now, so he leaned into the arms of the young man behind him, turned his round apple face, the smile between his two dimples was innocent and innocent, and his flickering eyes were vaguely attached and moved, and said:
"Brother Heng, this horse riding is really fun. I have never ridden much before."
Although he is the daughter of a noble prince and the home of martial arts, Xiangyun has never been exposed to horseback riding.
"It's not too late to learn now." Jia Heng smiled and said, "But don't be too playful. Look at the sweat on your face. Wipe it well after a while. If you are blown by the cold wind and suffer from the cold, it is not
It’s just a joke.”
Xiangyun nodded seriously, looked at Jia Heng's face with bright eyes, and said, "Brother Heng, you have it on your face too."
As he said that, he took out a handkerchief from his arms and said with a smile: "Brother Heng, let me wipe it for you."
Jia Heng couldn't help being infected by his innocent smile and said: "I'm fine, let's go down now and wipe it after we go down."
While talking, Jia Heng got off his horse first, then took Xiang Yun's fleshy little hand, half holding it on the ground.
Xiangyun chuckled and said, "Brother Heng, this is on the right track."
Tanchun had been watching not far away for a while. Yingying came over, her eyes were shining, she smiled and took Xiangyun's little hand, and asked: "Sister Yun, how are you?"
Xiangyun tilted her head slightly, picked up a handkerchief and wiped the sweat. The bangs on her forehead were covered with sweat, which made the girl look more childish. She smiled and said: "Third sister, my life was really in vain."
Well, it’s such a fun thing, it’s the first time I’ve tried it since I’ve grown up.”
Listening to the childish words, Jia Heng couldn't help but laugh and said: "There are many fun things in this world, such as rowing, swimming, archery... I will take you to play with me later, but now you go to the canopy next to me."
Take a rest, drink some hot tea, don't be blown by the cold wind."
Xiangyun smiled and said, "Brother Heng, I'll go first."
At this time, several maids also came over, picked up their cloaks, put them on Xiangyun, and helped the girl to rest on the reed tent.
When Tanchun waited for Xiangyun to leave, he raised his clear, crystal eyes, looked at the young man across from him, and said softly: "Brother Heng, I'm a little scared... Brother Heng, please help me later."
With that said, he walked towards the little pony.
Jia Heng's expression paused and he thought to himself, "You call this fear?"
However, he comforted her and said, "Don't worry, third sister, I won't throw you."
Tanchun stretched out one foot and stepped on the stirrup. The girl wore embroidered shoes with bamboo leaf patterns embroidered on them. Taizu of the Han Dynasty abolished the bad custom of foot binding, so women in this era were all born with natural feet.
At this moment, he turned his pretty face, with a smile in his heroic eyes, and asked: "Brother Heng, how about mounting the horse like this."
Jia Heng nodded and said: "Change this horse and let that horse rest for a while."
Tanchun: "..."
Seeing the beautiful girl trimming her eyebrows and looking forward to Shenfei with an expression of shame rather than annoyance, Jia Heng also found it quite interesting and helped Tan Chun get on the pony.
Compared with Xiangyun's plump figure, who can look like Hua Fei Jiang Xin if she is bigger, Tanchun's figure is much more slender.
Jia Heng still led the colt for a short half circle and talked about the key points of riding a horse one by one.
Tan Chun turned his head to the side, his bright eyes moved slightly, remembering the key points.
She is a girl with a smart mind, but she can remember the key points only once.
"Brother Heng..."
After a while, seeing that Jia Heng still didn't come up, Tan Chun pursed his lips and called out softly.
At this time, Jia Heng stopped the horse, raised the saddle, and got on the horse.
Feeling the figure of the person behind him approaching, Tanchun's pretty face became hot, and her body became slightly stiff. Her voice trembled unconsciously, and she said, "Brother Heng, are you holding the reins with both hands?"
Jia Heng crossed his arms around his body, grabbed the reins, and said warmly: "Well, I'm holding the reins. You can actually... relax a little."
Obviously, I feel that compared to Xiangyun, Tanchun... has more ideas.
Tanchun: "..."
He bit his lip and relaxed.
Jia Heng looked calm and said: "Third sister, let the horse walk slowly like this for a while, so that you can get used to it."
"good."
Tanchun responded softly, calmed down, raised his head and looked ahead. At that time, the sun was setting in the west, and the sunset glow was as gorgeous as fire. For a moment, his eyes were in a trance.
Jia Heng said: "Third sister, I will run the horse faster."
Tan Chun's pretty face suddenly showed nervousness. He took a deep breath and said softly: "Brother Heng, come on."
Jia Heng: "???"
Suppressing the messy thoughts, he said warmly: "Relax a little, don't be too nervous, and follow the ups and downs of the horse later."
As he spoke, he gave a gentle "drive" sound, and the foal started running quickly with four hooves.
Tanchun also understood what Jia Heng meant, and his body began to rise and fall gently with the horse, adapting to the bumps of the foal.
But not long after, his cheeks were burning. Compared to Xiangyun, he was more playful and slow in some things. Tanchun was obviously much precocious.
He noticed something strange behind him, coupled with the hot air on the back of his neck, and the warm words and warm words accompanied by the man's breathing were close to his ears, waves of numbness hit his whole body, and he became more and more unsettled.
After a while, Jia Heng sensed something strange about Tanchun. He slowly slowed down his horse and asked, "Is the third sister okay?"
"Brother Heng, I'm fine." Tan Chun said softly, and then explained: "Maybe I'm a little nervous."
Jia Heng said with relief: "This horse is actually very easy to ride. Third sister, don't be too nervous. With the third sister's qualifications, if she learns for ten days, she should be able to ride a horse by herself."
Tan Chunming's bright eyes moved slightly, and he frowned and said: "Ten days? Brother Heng, I always feel that it will take a few months to learn. I don't feel that I am very good at riding."
Jia Heng didn't think much about it for a moment, and chuckled: "It's okay, live and learn, even if you study for a lifetime, it's nothing."
Tanchun: "..."
The head is lowered, and the heart is pounding.
Brother Heng, what do you mean?
Jia Heng also consciously made a mistake. Perhaps he had talked too much in the past few days around the eldest princess of Jinyang, so he unconsciously brought it out.
She didn't dwell on the matter any longer and asked casually, "Third sister, how many days are there? It's almost the New Year."
Tan Chun said quietly: "Well, I'll be a year older in another year."
Jia Heng smiled and said, "The third sister should learn to ride a horse as soon as possible. Next spring, she can go out for an outing outside the city and enjoy the spring scenery."
Tan Chun said softly: "Brother Heng, this is what I told Sister Yun a few days ago. Although we were born in a prince's family, when we grew up, except for visiting relatives, we didn't even go out to the house a few times.
I saw that every plant and tree was a garden scene, but I didn’t see the magnificence of the heaven and earth, the splendor of the mountains and rivers. It would be great if I could go out for a walk."
Jia Heng said with emotion: "Stuff the cattle and sheep, go to the water town in the south of the Yangtze River, and the vast ocean... The days are long, and I will always take my third sister and sister Yun to see them."
When Tanchun heard this, he turned back to look at the young man, his eyes sparkling and said: "Brother Heng, you are also going to lead the army to the north in the future, right?"
Jia Heng nodded and said: "My lifelong wish is to follow the example of my predecessors and seal the wolf as a Xu and conquer the Hulu in the north."
Tan Chunming's eyes flashed and he sighed softly.
Jia Heng smiled and said, "Why are you sighing suddenly?"
Tan Chun's beautiful face was faint, her cherry lips twitched, and she said, "I'm afraid I won't have the opportunity to accompany Brother Heng."
Jia Heng was silent for a moment, chuckled, and said: "It may take three to five years, or one or two years at the minimum. After all, there is still a chance."
Tanchun said "hmm" and turned to look at the setting sun that had already set in the west. Wisps of twilight were falling from the clouds, and a senseless sadness surged deep in his heart.
"Third sister, it's getting late, why not come here today." Seeing Tanchun's mood suddenly drop, Jia Heng said warmly.
Tanchun said "hmm".
Jia Heng got off the horse and helped Tan Chun down.
At this moment, orange lights were already lighting up in the canopy. Xiangyun had been waiting for a long time. When he saw the two coming, he smiled and said: "Brother Heng, third sister, is it time for dinner? Are you hungry?"
Tanchun smiled and said, "I'm really hungry now."
Jia Heng took a handkerchief and handed it to Tan Chun, letting him wipe the sweat on his cheeks and said with a smile: "Go take a shower and change clothes first. It won't be too late to go back to Xifu after dinner."
Tanchun and Xiangyun smiled and said "Hello".
While talking, he left the school grounds and headed towards the back house from Huifang Garden.
Just when I arrived at Huifang Garden, I saw a light on the covered bridge in the distance, and Qingwen's voice came: "Sir, my wife has invited you and the two girls to have dinner together."
"Come here." Jia Heng quickly greeted Qingwen and said with a smile: "Qingwen, take the two of them to take a bath."
Qingwen was stunned for a moment, then realized what she was doing and said, "Sir, the secretary is in the backyard."
Shishu is Tanchun's maid, taking care of Tanchun's daily life.
As they talked, they walked towards the brightly lit backyard hall.
Qingwen ordered the maid to lead Tanchun and Xiangyun to take a bath.
Jia Heng also came to the side room to take a bath and change clothes.
