Chapter 12 Commander of the Forbidden Army
Xiao Qingyue smiled slightly and asked Xia Ling to get two more gold ingots for Li Yi. She didn't value money, and Li Yi sacrificed his life to save her. He deserved these things.
"I'm just saying, I'm a little embarrassed for what you gave me." Li Yi lowered his head shyly, but only took a gold ingot. Facing Xiao Qingyue's confused look, Li Yi
Yi shyly whispered:
"There is another one. I will pick it up next time, so that every time I go back, I will feel happy."
"You are quite interesting." Xiao Qingyue took a sip of tea.
"If your Majesty likes it, the little one will come often to relieve your boredom. He will tell stories, sing operas, recite poems and compose poems. The little one can come for a few times."
"Really?" Xiao Qingyue became interested, "Sing a few lines and listen."
"Brother Liu's words are too unreasonable. Who said that women enjoy leisure? Men fight at the border and women spin at home. They go to farm during the day and spin cotton at night. They work hard day and night, so that the soldiers can have such food and clothing.
…”
Li Yi's grandfather has been singing opera all his life. Under his influence since he was a child, Li Yi can also sing a few lines. Sometimes when there is a shortage of people, he will be called to come to the rescue.
"Not bad." Xiao Qingyue nodded, "Write a poem and listen to it."
"Madam, this will happen next time. I have to go to the stables. Do you have anything to take with me?" Li Yi looked at Xiao Qingyue and whispered.
The stables are not in the inner palace, but to the east of the outer palace, where they can reach the Imperial Army.
Xiao Qingyue shook her head, "Go ahead."
"My dear, please excuse me." Li Yi left Xiao Qingyue's bedroom in a responsible manner.
Originally, even eunuchs could not leave the inner palace at will without orders from their superiors. However, the emperor did not just go on a hunt. Eunuchs who could ride horses could go to the racecourse to test horses. There were even dedicated people there to test your horses.
Skills, rated.
The job of following the emperor would not make people flock to him. Many people who couldn't ride a horse would go there, seeking wealth and wealth in danger. What if they were gifted and could ride a horse?
Li Yi is still very humble. Someone has to lead the way for everything. If you have to figure it out on your own, you have to keep trying.
At this time, there is no chance for him to keep trying. At most, the person will be selected in two days.
Therefore, Li Yi targeted the Forbidden Army.
After leaving the inner palace, Li Yi approached a guard guarding the palace gate and whispered, "I wonder if Commander Xiao will be in the palace today? Our family has just come out of Zhaohua Palace and we have something to say to him."
"If he is here, please make sure he comes to the racecourse."
After finishing speaking, Li Yi walked towards the racecourse as if nothing happened.
Don't ask him why he lets people pass on messages so casually. If he had a better way, he wouldn't be like this.
Before going to the racecourse, Li Yi went to the stables first. There were only less than 30 horses left in the stables. He didn't pick any horses. After looking at them, Li Yi turned around and walked towards the racecourse.
Before he got close, he heard exclamations and screams. Li Yi shook his head. These horses were all fat and strong, and they were swinging their hooves. It was impossible for people like them who had never ridden a horse to control them.
If you want wealth and honor, you must have a certain idea in mind.
The racecourse is as big as twenty football fields. The previous emperor loved riding and shooting, and this was something he created.
Li Yi didn't go in, but watched from a distance. There were probably nearly a hundred people inside, and there were no more than ten who could actually ride.
If the family had that condition, he would not be sent to the palace.
Li Yi stared at the few who could ride, observing secretly while waiting for Commander Xiao to come over.
Xiao Zhaoyi did not ask him to speak, but it did not prevent Li Yi from making nonsense.
Now it seems that Commander Xiao will not be able to survive. Judging from his love for Xiao Zhaoyi, Li Yi feels that there is a high probability that he will come when he gets the news.
Soon, an hour passed, and as many as twenty eunuchs were carried away. Li Yi frowned. If he didn't come here, he would have to go back.
"The commander is that person."
The imperial guard who was guarding the palace gate pointed at Li Yi and said to the burly man beside him.
Feeling something, Li Yi looked to the side and met someone's eyes.
I saw this person wearing a helmet, a shoulder shawl covering his shoulders, a chest armor, a narrow-sleeved shirt inside, and a long windbreaker outside. He also wore an oval protective gear on the left and right sides of the chest armor, and soft armor was tied tightly around his waist, and he was tied with a wide belt.
, wearing soft boots.
This outfit, which looks more advanced than the other imperial guards, is probably 30% that of Commander Xiao.
Why is it 30%? Because the height difference between this guy and Xiao Zhaoyi is really big.
A beauty with stunning looks and a cold temperament, his brother should be the kind of person who is elegant and elegant, but the guy in front of him is a tall, burly, rough man, and he doesn't know who has a genetic mutation.
Li Yi walked over to greet him, "But Commander Xiao?"
"Are you the little eunuch of Zhaohua Palace? What do you want to say when you come to me? Could it be that Zhaoyi was bullied?" Xiao Zhen said in a rough voice, staring at Li Yi.
After he came out, the Yulin guard who was pointing out the person for Xiao Zhen retreated knowingly.
Oops, the image is so different, I didn’t expect that he is actually Xiao Zhaoyi’s brother.
Genes are biased.
Li Yi thought leisurely, "Zhaoyi asked me to give Commander Xiao a message that she is fine and that Commander should not worry about her."
"Is peace really good or false peace?" Xiao Zhen looked at Li Yi, as if he would deal with him if he told lies.
"When the little one came out, Zhaoyi also rewarded him with a gold ingot. His complexion was rosy and shiny. His condition couldn't be better."
Li Yi's answer made Xiao Zhen very happy, so he waved his hand and took a small silver ingot to Li Yi.
It was only about one or two, Li Yi lowered his eyes silently, he was stingy, he couldn't learn from his sister!
He doesn't think it's heavy if it's twelve or eighty taels, and he can also carry it away if it's one hundred and eighty taels.
This tael is enough for him to reward the young eunuch, and even the higher-ranking eunuchs will not look down upon him.
"Did the commander ask me to bring something back to Zhaoyi?"
"That's not true. I just keep an eye on you. If someone bullies Zhaoyi, come and tell me right away. I can't deal with what's going on inside, and I can't deal with what's going on outside!" Xiao Zhen grabbed the saber at his waist with murderous intent.
Li Yi's facial muscles twitched, he was a tough guy.
"That's no problem. Should the commander express his feelings?" Li Yi said suggestively.
Xiao Zhen frowned and looked unhappy, "That's why you eunuchs are so unpopular. You asked me to do something, but before it even started, you reached out to ask for benefits. What you just gave is not enough!"
Li Yi let out a breath and straightened his back. Really, he was using the palace tactics with a big boss. He should deal with this kind of person directly.
"Commander Xiao, if you can teach me how to ride a horse in one day, and then give Xiao Zhaoyi a message or something, I don't care if you want any benefit." Li Yi wiped the saliva from his head and raised his eyes.
"Horse riding?" Xiao Zhen glanced at Li Yi's body. He naturally knew about the emperor's selection of young eunuchs for hunting. "It's not worth a day."
Xiao Zhen looked towards the racecourse. At this time, there were not many people in the racecourse. Carrying Li Yi, Xiao Zhen strode towards the racecourse.
Li Yi was silent. Could it be that he couldn't walk on his own or something? With a backhand grab, Li Yi spun around and got rid of Xiao Zhen's control.
"Commander Xiao, I can walk by myself." Li Yi pulled on his clothes and straightened them.
