After leaving the General's Mansion, Shao Xi walked and pondered all the way.
Now that his plan has progressed to this point, no matter whether Han Zeng believes in him or not, his open dealings with Fu Zuoliang will no longer arouse too much suspicion, and the moment Fu Zuoliang hands over the secret letter to him, he can dispel any suspicion. His doubts were gone.
The next thing to do is to find a way to bring Zhao Hongjin, the young emperor of Southern Zhao, into the plan. Although the success rate of this matter is not low, Shao Xi still feels a little unsure. If this little emperor is really stubborn and refuses to listen to his own plan, he may lose everything.
Shao Xi has never met Zhao Hongjin, and all he knows about him is from side inquiries. Everyone praised him for being smart, thoughtful, generous and kind since he was a child, but all these were told by others, and you have to see him in person to know.
If Zhao Hongjin is really as others say, it stands to reason that his plan can impress him. After all, the first thing an emperor who wants to rule personally must clear all obstacles on the way to control power. Although it is Fu Zuoliang who is on the surface at the moment, in fact it is Han Zeng who is really hindering him from taking charge. If the pros and cons are explained, I believe this little emperor should be willing to join the plan to eliminate Han Zeng.
However, before that, the misunderstanding between Fu Zuoliang and him for many years must first be eliminated.
Thinking of this, Shao Xi felt a little ridiculous. This Fu Zuoliang's temper is really good. He is clearly dedicated to the Southern Zhao Kingdom, but he has left the impression on his boss that he wants to seize power. I really don't know how he has been an official for so many years.
Judging from the current situation, this is not a bad thing. Using Fu Zuoliang to confuse Han Zeng is the best choice, and take the initiative to set up a target for him to prevent him from guessing and staring at himself.
As he was walking and thinking, he suddenly heard a commotion ahead, followed by the sound of people shouting and neighing. Before Shao Xi could figure out what was going on, he saw a tall maroon horse running towards him.
This horse has a rounded back, thick limbs, tall body, fiery red body, shining eyes, high head, long mane on the back of its neck flying in the wind, and its hooves flying in the air when running, showing a majestic appearance.
This horse galloped wildly on the street, but its owner couldn't control it. As a result, the horse ran even more wildly, causing pedestrians on the road to run away and scream, and some children were even frightened to the point of crying "Wow!" , that scene looked really chaotic and chaotic. Where could there be any trace of the bustling and orderly look of the streets of Beijing?
The bell on the horse's neck kept ringing, and the man sitting on the horse kept shouting.
"Get out of the way, get out of the way quickly...!"
Shao Xi followed the sound and couldn't help but laugh out loud.
I saw that the person on the horse was thin and thin. He was bouncing up and down on the horse's back. His hair was scattered and shaking. He couldn't see clearly what he looked like. But judging from the yellow dress and the shouting, Judging from the sound, she must be a woman. She obviously can't ride a horse but she gallops on the horse. As a result, the whole person is like a puppet on the horse, being shaken by the horse and staggering around.
"Get out of the way, all of you, get out of the way! I can't stop! All of you, get out of the way..."
Although Yongchuan City is not that big, it is still the capital of Southern Zhao Kingdom. In the capital city, a horse galloped so wildly on the streets, and a woman who couldn't ride a horse really made Shao Xi feel dumbfounded. He didn't know whose young lady was so bold and reckless. Wasn't she afraid of getting into trouble? ?
Shao Xi was wondering what was going on when he saw the maroon horse running in front of him. If he didn't dodge at this moment, he would definitely be knocked away by the tall horse.
"Ouch! Get away quickly, get away quickly!"
The woman on the horse obviously saw Shao Xi and shouted in a panic, wanting Shao Xi to get away quickly to avoid being hit by the horse. But at this time, she could only remind Shao Xi to get out of the way, but she had no choice. At this time, it was not easy for her to maintain her balance and not fall off the horse. How could she still have the ability to control the fierce horse under her crotch? Stop?
At the moment when the man and the horse were about to collide, Shao Xi suddenly ducked and passed the horse's head, then stretched out his right hand to grab the horse's bridle, and pulled it back hard. The huge horse's head was caught by Shao Xi. He was pulled into his arms, and due to the strong inertia, the entire horse was thrown forward.
Snap...
thump……
"ah……!"
The horse's head was suddenly pulled by Shao Xi, and the horse's body was swung 180 degrees and fell directly to the ground. The person on the horse was also thrown out and fell heavily to the roadside, letting out a cry of surprise.
The fallen horse was eager to stand up, kicking its four hooves on the ground, but Shao Xi pressed the horse's head to the ground with one hand, preventing it from getting up. The horse struggled desperately for a while, and finally it was exhausted, stopped struggling, and lay flat on the ground.
Seeing that the horse was no longer struggling, Shao Xi gently relaxed the force on his hand. The bay-red horse seemed to have sensed Shao Xi's intention. It no longer kicked with its four hooves like before, but He stood up gently and stood quietly in front of Shao Xi, completely losing his previous violent state.
Shao Xi's move made the passersby around him stunned. Such a tall and strong horse was pinned to the ground like a kitten or puppy in front of Shao Xi. No matter how violent his temper was, he had to give up the struggle in the end. , became submissive and extremely docile.
Old Wu stood aside, twirling a few beards on his chin and nodding his head. He couldn't help but praise: "It's really a good horse! You can surrender such a strong and powerful horse with one hand. It's really different from the past! I don't think we were just used by others as horses. Was it knocked off?"
After hearing Lao Wu's words, Shao Xi couldn't help but think of the scene when Feng Yuyan was hit and killed by a horse, and couldn't help but sigh for a moment. If that incident hadn't happened in the first place, I don't know who I would have traveled through time again? Maybe time travel will never happen at all, right?
The two were talking about horses when they suddenly heard a humming sound coming from the side.
Looking up, I saw the woman who fell from the horse was struggling to get up from the ground. She fell from the horse but her hands and feet were not broken. I don't know if she was lucky or if she had some other ability? However, after such a fall, there was probably no place in her body that was not painful. She could only see her hands touching her body, not knowing where to rub them.
Looking at her again, Shao Xi couldn't help but laugh again. At this time, the woman looked worse than when she was on the horse, unkempt and covered in dust. Just now, the bright yellow dress on her body has been torn in many places, either torn one by one, or with holes made by the fall. The whole person looks like a new beggar. , unspeakably funny.
Unexpectedly, Shao Xi's smile made the other party laugh harder. Wrestling while riding a horse was already embarrassing enough, but now he was laughed at in front of his face, which made everyone feel embarrassed.
"You..., why are you laughing? I asked you to avoid it but you didn't, and you even made me and my horse fall down. How dare you laugh at me now?"
Shao Xi thought about a girl who was thrown off her horse on the street and was thrown into the miserable state she was in now. It was really rude for her to laugh at her at this time, so she quickly put away her smile and looked at her seriously. Looking at the woman opposite.
"Girl, are you okay? Are you injured? I just saw the girl riding a horse. It seems that the girl has never practiced riding. Why do you dare to ride such a fierce horse? Or on the streets of the capital. , it is too dangerous for others and ourselves.”
Shao Xi's words were originally polite, and there was nothing wrong with the friendly reminder. But I wonder if it was Shao Xi's smile just now that angered the other party? The girl didn't appreciate it and started scolding him.
"You don't need to worry about whether I fell and got injured. Do you have to worry about whether I have practiced riding skills? I just like to ride strong horses. What about the streets of Beijing? It's not like my yard. I can ride whatever I want. You can ride as you please, run as much as you want, do you want to take care of it? If you're afraid of danger, just stay away, who wants you to run out and meddle in other people's business?"
"Oh! Damn it! Are you a dog? Are you so ungrateful! I saved you and you still cursed me? You almost hurt people by riding a horse in the street, but you don't even know what's wrong. Whose unruly daughter is this? You Didn’t your parents teach you how to be a woman?”
Shao Xi would definitely not tolerate this kind of anger. As soon as the other party opened his mouth, Shao Xi turned on the verbal attack mode and immediately attacked the other party.
"Hmph! You are the one born in the year of the dog. How dare you say that you are saving me after throwing me like this? I am happy to ride a horse on the street, and you are responsible for it? Which wild boy are you from? Run away. Are you asking for a beating when you come out to meddle in other people's business?"
Shao Xi took a look and saw that this girl had such a bad temper! It was obvious that she was at fault in the first place, but yet she was so arrogant and unreasonable. She really couldn't tell who was the eldest daughter of a wealthy family. But Shao Xi doesn't care whose girl you are, speaking so rudely, Shao Xi has never been used to this problem.
"Look at the way you are dressed and the horse you are riding, you are not an ordinary lady. Why do you speak so unreasonably? It is obvious that you are endangering other people's lives by riding a horse in the street. You clearly do not know how to ride but you want to ride such a violent horse. If you're not afraid of death, forget it. Don't let others lose their lives with you. This street is not your home. I obviously saved you just now, but you are so ignorant. Now you want to insult me. You might as well be a kid. Where’s the dog!”
At this time, the other party was like a little rooster with fried feathers. He walked up to Shao Xi with his arms crossed, pointed at Shao Xi's nose and asked: "Who do you think is ungrateful? Who do you think is worse than a puppy?"
Shao Xi was so angry at her that she replied with a smile: "When you scold your savior, do you think you don't know what's good? A puppy still knows how to wag its tail at the person who saved him, but now you are baring your teeth at me. Stare, do you think you are worse than a puppy?"
The woman became anxious after what Shao Xi said and said loudly: "Who asked you to come to save me? You were obviously your nosy, causing me to wrestle with my horse, and now I have fallen into this state." Look, you still dare to mock me? See how I teach you a lesson!"
With that said, he waved the riding crop in his hand and hit Shao Xi.
Ouch, let me go! I have seen people being unreasonable, but I have never seen anyone so unreasonable.
