After listening to the stories of their children, Yang Fan said with a smile: "These boys are smart and alert. They can be paid attention to and cultivated."
Brothers Si Xiaosong and Si Xiaobai didn't know that they had already attracted the attention of the noble man. The two of them were still immersed in the joy of their own business.
Soon the two hundred sesame cakes were sold out, and I didn't even want to keep one for myself.
They counted the two hundred dollars excitedly, relying on their own cleverness and hard-earned money. I happily went back to watch the show.
The cheerful Xipi Liushui singing tune is singing the Lotus Lantern. The people who listened were intoxicated.
Finally, the finale of "The Beautiful Eucalyptus" received overwhelming applause, and the applause was like a roaring tsunami. Several main actors in the opera, through this night's performance, have become famous actors in the eyes of the people.
We didn't leave until after eight o'clock in the evening.
Yang Fan took the two ladies and took a carriage back to rest.
The next day, Yang Fan didn't go there and rested at home for the day. During this period of time, Yang Fan was really tired. I lay at home and didn't want to move. Just leave it at home.
On the third day, it was hunting time.
Yang Fan got up in the middle of the night, and with Xiao Niangpi and Lin Yueru waiting on him, he put on his hunting clothes and brought a riding bow. Prepare to go to the mountains to the north, review the three armies, and then go to the predetermined area to encircle.
Since deer hunting is usually carried out in July and August every year, it is also called "Autumn Deer". In ancient times, hunting in autumn was referred to as the deer, such as the autumn deer. Hunting in spring is called Sou, hunting in summer is called Miao, and hunting in winter is called hunting.
In modern times, anytime we hunt is called hunting.
In the early morning of the next day, at dawn, Yang Fan and his wife set off in a light four-wheel carriage under the protection of the personal barracks.
Xiao Niangpi and Lin Yueru got into the car and began to sleep leaning on Yang Fan's shoulder. I didn't wake up until I arrived at my destination at ten in the morning. Yawning, Yang Fan got out of the car.
After a simple breakfast, we came to a very beautiful grassland, where grasslands and lakes are crisscrossed, and the scenery is picturesque.
The undulating grassland hills in the distance, the blue sky, white clouds, pastures, lakes, and geese flying to the south jointly unfold a magnificent picture of nature. It makes people feel refreshed and happy.
An Sanxi and others were already waiting here to greet them.
Yang Fan and his wife came to the venue and sat down on a one-meter-high earth platform built with temporary rammed earth.
The carpet is laid here and there are some eucalyptus trees. There is a screen behind it. The one-foot-low earth platform rows on both sides of the earth platform are the positions of senior civil and military officials.
Directly in front of the earth platform is an open space. On both sides are the positions of officers of all levels. Everyone was sitting on the carpet.
Several shirtless strong men in the army, more than two meters tall, swung their long whips and made a crackling sound. Eighteen blasts of whip.
The people here today are all Yang Fan's own people, and the car camp was left behind in Duolun City. The seven cavalry regiments here are all Yang Fan's personal armed forces.
This is a grand review of Yang Fan's personal force.
Cheying is also the Hexi Guard Qianhu Station. All the officers and soldiers of that army know that Yang Fan is their commander, but they are the country's army and their allegiance is to the emperor of Ming Dynasty.
But here is different, here are Yang Fan's private soldiers. It's completely a private army.

Then the horn sounded, and eight strong Mongolian warriors who looked like iron towers danced, entered the venue, and started wrestling for a show.
They jump left and right, shrugging their shoulders. Jumping left and right before Mongolian wrestling means showing off and showing off. Wrestlers have special clothing, which is called "Zhuodege" in Mongolian.
The upper body is a tight-fitting half-sleeved vest made of cowhide or canvas, nailed with silver or steel nails. An apron made of red, blue and yellow silk is tied around the waist. It is called "Xilibuge" in Mongolian.
The lower body is worn with 5-meter or 10-meter white cloth specially made of fat wrestling pants, and a mattress with colorful patterns on the outside is also put on, so that sweat will not stick to the clothes, and it can prevent injury accidents.
Wear Mongolian boots or riding boots.
In addition, a collar-like "Zhangga" made of five-color silk strips is worn around the neck. "Zhangga" marks the ranking achieved. The more wins, the more colored strips.
Before the competitors appear on the stage, they must sing wrestling songs and dance the eagle step. Their jumping dance imitates the way an eagle flaps its wings on the ground and sways from side to side as it walks.
Wrestling songs are also called marching songs, which are vigorous and high-pitched, with a strong character.
Four pairs of strong men caught each other and fought each other, falling with a roar.
After the wrestlers finished their performances, representatives of each newly formed animal husbandry team came up collectively to toast Yang Fan. And sing a toast song. I wish the new owner good health and long life.
Then they all bowed down to meet their new master.
Yang Fan stood up, picked up the mare's milk wine bowl, dipped his fingers into it, toasted Tengger, the earth and the gods, and drank it all in one gulp.
Then Yang Fan mounted his horse and inspected more than 20,000 elite cavalrymen from seven cavalry regiments.
The cavalrymen wore uniforms and lined up neatly, solemnly and solemnly.
Yang Fan rode a white horse, accompanied by An Sanxi, and galloped past the formation.
Shouting loudly in Mongolian and Chinese to pay tribute to the soldiers.
The soldiers shouted like a mountain and a tsunami, and they went through fire and water for you, even to the death.
During the military parade, the three armies were invigorated and their morale reached a climax.
Then the three armies set off to hunt in the hunting ground.
More than 20,000 cavalrymen spread out and surrounded an entire mountain.
An Sanxi said: "Master, there is a legend on this grassland. There is a white deer king who comes from Mobei with his herd of deer every three years. Our scouts discovered this three days ago Deer herd. So we designated this place as the place for autumn deer. Master, if you capture this white deer king with your own hands, you will gain a great reputation in the grassland. The people in the grassland will believe that you are a person with great luck."
Yang Fan said: "I heard that the white deer is a legendary sacred animal. How should I capture this white deer?"
"Master, after the siege begins, we will find this herd of deer and force them in front of you. You take your personal guards and chase the herd, and I will arrange for people to drive the white deer out of the herd. This herd of deer There are about two hundred of them, but this one is a male. The others are all doe."
"Only this one has majestic antlers. It is very tall and very eye-catching among the deer. You can see it at a glance."
"After chasing it out, the cavalry will separate the doe and surround it on all sides. The soldiers will use the lasso. Attack from all sides. Hang its antlers and use force from all sides to control it. Take some time , exhausting its strength."

"When the time comes, when its legs become weak and it can no longer stand. Just dismount and knock it down."
Yang Fan nodded and said, "Does this complete the ceremony?"
An Sanxi said: "Not yet. I have arranged for the shaman to stab the white deer on the neck and release a small bowl of deer blood. You drink the bowl of deer blood in one gulp. The ritual is complete."
