Chapter 121 Stealing Fragrants and Jade 5
Handan City is a hundred miles away, and it is still a little far from the suburbs, and Ranfu is not far from Zhao Xin's home. Therefore, Zhao Xin took Ran Min back to his home to pick up the horse.
Li was at home at this time. Zhao Xin was afraid of disturbing her and causing unnecessary trouble, so he ordered the servants to be quiet. He sneaked into the house and led the horse from the yard to leave quietly.
At a hidden street corner, Ran Min saw Zhao Xin leading a horse slowly. The horse is tall and healthy, with a little white hair mixed in black, and his eyes are extremely divine. Even if Ran Min doesn't understand Xiangma, he can see that it is a rare good horse.
Ran Min couldn't help walking up and looking around the horse for a long time, and her beautiful eyes were full of curiosity. Although she has also ridden horses, she rides short-footed tawns with a very gentle temperament. When have she ever seen such a tall and majestic war horse, she naturally feels fresh.
The war horses in the army are different from the horses that the nobles ride. Most of the nobles pursue the brightness of the hair and the comfort of riding, so most of them are docile. The military horses naturally pursue endurance and short-range explosive power. Naturally, most of them are fierce horses, especially the unruly horses, which require the knights a lot of effort to tame. . Zhao Xin's horse was specially given to him by his father in the cloud. Whether in terms of physique or endurance, he is the best choice for a war horse.
Seeing that Ran Min stretched out tentatively to himself, the war horse would not pity Xiang Xiyu. He suddenly shook his nose and raised his front hoof with a long sound. Ran Min was so scared that he hurriedly retreated, looking embarrassed.
Zhao Xin quickly grabbed the rein of the horse, reached out his hand and gently stroked the horse's neck. His mouth was attached to the horse's ear and muttered in a low voice, and the war horse gradually calmed down.
Ran Min looked at it strangely and asked curiously, "What are you doing?"
"I'm talking to it." Zhao Xin said with a smile. I told him that you are my friend and let it not be excited.
Ran Min couldn't help laughing and covered her mouth with a smile, "Fuckles, how can the horse understand what you said?"
I'm used to seeing Ran Min's cold face as frost, but the first time I saw her smile, it was like spring melting ice and snow on the earth, and flowers blooming. There are already some differences in Zhao's confidence, but he still looks like a ghost and jokes, "Of course, you know that the first thing we are cavalry is to establish communication with our own horses. Otherwise, if I let it run back during the war, it will take me to turn around and rush to the enemy, then I will die unjustly.
Ran Min saw that Zhao Xin's words were interesting, and he couldn't help laughing out loud. He also saw that Zhao Xin's words were rigid and eye-catching, not full of nonsense, and his curiosity in his heart was even stronger. He asked suspiciously, "What you said is true or false?"
Zhao Xin patted his chest and said with a smile, "Of course it's true. If you don't believe it, you can touch it now."
Although she was a little scared, Ran Min couldn't stand the curiosity in her heart and couldn't help stretching out her hand and slowly touching the horse's back. When his fingers touched in time, the war horse suddenly turned around and stared at her. Ran Min quickly withdrew his finger like a frightened rabbit. When he saw that the war horse had no follow-up action, he had the courage to see his palm close to it and gently stroked it a few times.
Seeing that the war horse was really not angry, Zhao Xin said with a smile, "Well, I didn't lie to you."
Ran Min nodded, still looked at the war horse with wide eyes, and touched the horse's neck with his palm up. The war horse sounded his nose slightly, and his eyes closed seemed to be very attentive by the beauty.
Zhao Xin untied the bag on the saddle, reached in and grabbed a handful of refined food and handed it to Ran Min. "Come on, feed it some of this, pat it, and it will be familiar with you."
Ran Min hesitated, and then spread out his palm and asked Zhao Xin to pour the horse grain into her hand. Under the sun, Ran Min's crystal palm is weak and boneless. It looks like it is transparent, against black horse food, which is especially attractive.
Ran Min had no time to care about Zhao Xin's eyes, but carefully stretched out her palm to the mouth of the horse. The war horse came over and asked slightly, then stretched out his tongue and chewed it.
Seeing that the war horse was so docile, Ran Min's fear in her heart went away, and she asked Zhao Xin for some horse food. Seeing her clever and beautiful appearance, Zhao Xin's heart moved slightly. He reached out and patted the horse's body again, listened to the voice by the horse's mouth, and nodded repeatedly.
Ran Min was really fooled and said with a smile, "What are you talking to it again?"
Zhao Xin smiled and said in a tone, "This time it has something to say to me. It tells me that you are very beautiful and it likes you very much."
The one who is not the one who is talking is not interested, and the one who listens is intentional. Although Zhao Xin had a hippie smile on his face and looked unruly, Ran Min couldn't help blushing. Women are precocious than men, and they will naturally think more, not to mention that now the two are alone together.
Hearing Zhao Xin praise that he is beautiful, the most girl Ran Min will naturally be happy, so although she is angry, there is no trace of anger on her face.
"What's the nonsense? Don't blame me for talking nonsense again."
He looked at the war horse and asked softly, "What's its name?"
"Name!" Zhao Xin was stunned, scratched his head with some embarrassment, and said with a smile, "What name does it want? It's just a horse, not a human."
Ran Min stared at him and raised her mouth and said annoy, "What's wrong with Ma? Have you read Lao Tzu? Heaven and earth are not benevolent, and everything is a dog. In the eyes of heaven and earth, everything in the world is ordinary, and there is no difference between high and low. Why can you call Zhao Xin, but it can't have a name?
When Zhao Xin was told by her, he couldn't stand it and quickly waved his hand and said, "Okay, okay, you're right. I'm wrong. I'll give it a name."
"It's so black, how about it called Little Black? That's not right. There are also some white hairs. It should be in color. How about it called Xiaohua?
Ran Min couldn't help but have a black line on her forehead and hurriedly said, "What a messy name are you? Fortunately, you still pretend to be three-year-old and five-year-old."
Zhao Xinbai glanced at her and said, "Then you can take it. I'll be at your convenience."
Ran Min pondered for a moment before saying, "In the past, King Mu used to control the tycoon of the eight dragons, a Jedi, who did not practice the earth; two turned over the feathers and walked over the birds; three ran to the night, traveled thousands of miles in the wild; four shadows, walked day by day; five over the glory, the hair color was shining; six super light, one shape and ten shadows; seven people flew in the fog, running on the clouds; eight people carried wings. , with meat wings. I think your war horse is black and white, like a Jedi. Why don't you call it a Jedi?
After that, he looked at Zhao Xin with a smile, thinking that he would praise him. Unexpectedly, Zhao Xin shook his head and said, "This name is not good."
Ran Min was very angry and looked at Zhao Xin angrily and said unconvincedly, "What's wrong? What's wrong with you?"
Zhao Xin just shook his head and did not explain. Although Ran Min is extremely smart, she is just a little girl who doesn't know anything about the world. How could she know that this horse's name is a great taboo?
What is the Jedi? It is the mount of King Mu of Zhou, the love of the son of heaven. If he is an ordinary person, it's nothing to give the name of the mount, but his identity is extremely **. On the one hand, he is the cronies around the master, and on the other hand, more importantly, he is the descendant of Zhao Xiangzi, who is no different from the prince although he has not split the land. If Zhao Xin gives this kind of name to the mount, if it is used by someone with intention, he can add a great crime of rebellion to him by this alone.
So even if Ran Min doesn't understand these things, it is impossible for Zhao Xin, who has been deeply involved in the power layer of the State of Zhao, to understand. But it's not easy to explain these to Ran Min, so he thought for a moment and said, "The Jedi is a little bad. It's better to call it Jue Ying. There is no shadow. It runs so fast that even the shadow can't keep up. How about this?
Ran Min nodded and said, "This name seems to have some charm, which is quite good. The horse is yours, then it's called Jue Ying.
Zhao Xin laughed, reached out and patted the horse's buttocks, and said to it with a smile, "Thank you for giving you a name."
Jue Ying seemed to really understand it. Unexpectedly, he stepped on the horse's hoof and put the horse's head to Ran Min, which made her giggle.
Under Zhao Xin's jokes, the originally strange relationship between the two became much more familiar, and their words gradually let go, no longer as rigid as before.
Zhao Xin looked up at the sky. Seeing that the sun was fading away, he said, "It's getting late. If we want to hurry to see the sunset, we'd better start early."
