23. Emperor's horse :Liehuo

Liehuo raised his head proudly, looking at the Third Prince, the Fifth Prince and others with disdain.

  "Liehuo, can I touch you?" The Third Prince said, and then he stretched out his hand cautiously, wanting to touch Liehuo.

  Liehuo turned his head away and gave the Third Prince a cold look.

  "Third brother, Liehuo doesn't want you to touch him." The Fifth Prince said gloatingly.

  The Third Prince was not annoyed by being said so. He turned his head and looked at the Fifth Prince and said, "Then fifth brother, you try and see if Liehuo will let you touch him?" The

  Fifth Prince immediately smiled at Liehuo, with a flattering tone: "Liehuo, can I touch you?"

  Liehuo sneezed directly at the Fifth Prince, and looked at the Fifth Prince with eyes that seemed to say, "Don't get close to me, get out of here as far as you can."

  The third prince immediately laughed and said, "Fifth brother, you are not allowed to touch Liehuo either."

  The fifth prince shrugged and said, "If you are not allowed to touch it, then don't touch it."

  The sixth prince said, "Liehuo only allows father to touch it. Third brother, fifth brother, just give up."

  "I remember that the second brother wanted to ride Liehuo once, and asked father for this grace, and father agreed to it, but Liehuo would not let the second brother ride it." The third prince said, "The second brother just rode on Liehuo, and Liehuo threw him off."

  "The second brother wanted to tame Liehuo, but Liehuo ignored him." The fifth prince smiled meaningfully.

  As soon as the ninth prince arrived at the horse farm, he heard the third prince and the fifth prince making up stories about his brother. Of course, he was unhappy and immediately retorted.

  "My brother at least rode on Liehuo. Third brother and fifth brother, you couldn't even touch Liehuo's hair."

  "Oh, ninth brother, you look pretty good. You don't feel any pain?" The third prince laughed unceremoniously, "It seems that General Qin still showed mercy." The

  ninth prince's face darkened instantly, and he glared at the third prince fiercely.

  "Ninth brother, do you still have the strength to ride a horse?" The fifth prince pretended to be concerned and said, "I see that you look like this, and I'm afraid you will fall apart when riding a horse later."

  "Fifth brother, you are wrong. Ninth brother is the younger brother of the mighty second brother. How can he not be able to ride a horse?" The third prince said with a smile, "Ninth brother, don't you think so?" The

  ninth prince snorted coldly and said, "Don't worry about it, third brother and fifth brother."

  On this side, the third prince and the ninth prince were bickering. On the other side, Zhao Yao and the eighth prince were feeding their horses.

  Zhao Yao's horse was a black horse, but its four legs were white, very beautiful. Zhao Yao named it Heiyu.

  Heiyu is a girl with a gentle temper. She likes Zhao Yao, her little master, very much. Every time she sees Zhao Yao, she is very affectionate. She rubs Zhao Yao's little face from time to time and licks Zhao Yao's little face with her tongue from time to time, which makes Liehuo very jealous.

  Liehuo and Lingyun are friends. Liehuo knows Zhao Yao from Lingyun and knows that Zhao Yao can understand what they say. It sees that Zhao Yao and Lingyun are friends, but Zhao Yao doesn't come to play with it, which makes it very angry. Doesn't it deserve to be friends with him?

  Everyone who sees it wants to please it and get close to it, but when Zhao Yao sees it, he stays away from it. Why is that?

  Liehuo makes a very dissatisfied sound, trying to attract Zhao Yao's attention, but Zhao Yao doesn't even look at it.

  Heiyu glanced at Liehuo, whose face was full of unhappiness, and whispered to Zhao Yao: [Yaoyao, why don't you go to see Lord Liehuo? ]

  Liehuo is the most noble horse in the palace stables, and naturally he is the king. All the horses in the stables are convinced and submit to it.

  "It's my father's horse, so don't mess with it." Zhao Yao certainly wanted to get close to Liehuo, after all, Liehuo was the best war horse in the Great Zhou Dynasty. "I'm afraid my father will spank me."

  The second brother once coveted Liehuo, hoping that my father would reward him with Liehuo. My father said that as long as the second brother could tame Liehuo, he would give him Liehuo, but unfortunately the second brother failed to tame Liehuo.

  Liehuo didn't give face to anyone except my father. If he got close to Liehuo, Liehuo got close to him, and let him ride, wouldn't he be more powerful than the second brother?

  This kind of thing is not good, he doesn't want to be in the limelight, so he deliberately didn't get close to Liehuo.

  [Yaoyao, Lord Liehuo seems to like you very much. ]

  Zhao Yao grinned and said, "I'm so cute, who doesn't like me."

  [Yaoyao, do you want to go to Yangzhou? ]

  "Ah, I don't want to go to Yangzhou."

  [Lai Qian said you want to find a bird that has been to Yangzhou. ]

  "You are talking about this matter. I don't want to go to Yangzhou, but I want to know what's going on in Yangzhou."

  [Yaoyao, Lord Liehuo has been to Yangzhou. He and the emperor once fought in Yangzhou. He knows what's going on in Yangzhou. You can ask him. ] Lord Liehuo, I have tried my best to help you. Please stop glaring at me. I am scared. [Lord Liehuo has been to many places with the emperor before. He knows a lot of things. You can ask him and he will tell you. ]

  "Liehuo has been to Yangzhou before, but he hasn't been to Yangzhou now." Zhao Yao shook his head and said, "I want to know what's going on in Yangzhou now. Liehuo doesn't know."   

  The Eighth Prince saw Zhao Yao mumbling to his horse non-stop, and walked over with a smile and said: "Tenth brother, what are you talking about with Heiyu?"

  "Eighth brother, I'm trying to build a relationship with Heiyu, and let him carry me well and not throw me off." Zhao Yao said, "Heiyu just promised me." "

  Then get on the horse."

  "Okay." Zhao Yao led Heiyu out of the stable, and when he was about to get on the horse, Heiyu deliberately bent her legs so that Zhao Yao could climb on her back. When the

  Eighth Prince saw Zhao Yao getting on the horse, he also got on the horse.

  "Tenth brother, you stay beside me, don't ride too fast." In this way, if the Tenth Brother got into an accident, he could save him in time.

  "Eighth brother, I'm fine." Zhao Yao said, and let Heiyu run.

  Seeing this, the Eighth Prince hurriedly chased after him.

  Seeing this scene, the Fourth Prince felt uneasy and chased after him. The

  Third Prince saw that it was a bit boring to just practice riding a horse, so he proposed a competition, and there would be prizes for winning. The Fifth Prince and the Sixth Prince readily agreed.

  "Seventh brother, ninth brother, do you want to come?"

  The seventh prince said, "Come." He looked at the ninth prince provocatively, "Ninth brother, do you dare to compete?" In archery, the seventh prince could not compare with the ninth prince, but in riding, the seventh prince was not worse than the ninth prince.

  The Ninth Prince said disdainfully: "Whoever dares not is a grandson." He rolled his eyes and raised a malicious smile at the corner of his mouth, "Zhao Jing, if you lose, you learn to bark like a dog, how about that?"

  When the Seventh Prince heard this, his face instantly became very ugly. He glared at the Ninth Prince and said, "Okay, if you lose, you also learn to bark like a dog, how about that?"

  "Okay." The Ninth Prince felt that he had won for sure, "Then it's settled, whoever loses gets to bark like a dog. If you lose and regret not barking like a dog, don't blame me for being rude then." "

  I'm afraid you'll regret it and not bark like a dog."

  "I won't lose, you just wait to bark like a dog." The Ninth Prince said, and jumped on the horse, "Come on, let's compete." "

  You're determined to bark like a dog." The Seventh Prince also got on the horse, "Compete."

  "Seventh brother, ninth brother, won't you join us..."

  Before the Third Prince had finished speaking, the Seventh Prince and the Ninth Prince had already started competing.

  "Third brother, forget about the two of them, let's compete with the three of us."

  "Okay, then let's compete with the three of us." The third prince said, "Fifth brother, if I win, give me the young eunuch next to you who is good at painting."

  "Third brother, you were planning to take the eunuch next to me."

  "Your eunuch is good at painting, which suits my taste." The third prince said with a smile, "You also know that I like painting."

  "Third brother, if I win, what prize are you going to give me?"

  "Just say whatever you want."

  "Third brother is straightforward, then it's settled." The fifth prince turned to the sixth prince and asked, "Sixth brother, what prize do you want?"

  The sixth prince smiled and said, "Third brother, fifth brother, you also know that I like money. If I win, you just give me money." The sixth prince's biggest hobby is love of money.

  "Okay, then I'll give you money." The third prince patted his palm with a horse whip and said, "Then let's start."

  The seventh prince and the ninth prince were competing, and neither of them gave in.

  When the Eighth Prince saw that the Seventh Prince and the Ninth Prince had started to fight again, he hurriedly asked Zhao Yao to follow him to the corner to practice riding horses, and not to block the Seventh Prince and the others' way, otherwise they would be in trouble.

  The Fourth Prince also came to the corner and practiced riding horses with Zhao Yao and the others.

  Zhao Yao rode between the Fourth Prince and the Eighth Prince. He didn't know if it was his illusion, but he felt that the atmosphere between the Fourth Brother and the Eighth Brother was a little subtle. Did they have a quarrel?

  Impossible.

  Although the Fourth Brother always looked cold, he never had a conflict with others. As for the Eighth Brother, it was even more impossible for him to quarrel with the Fourth Brother.

  What happened between the Fourth Brother and the Eighth Brother?
