Brilliant Horse

"Hmm..." After finishing his breakfast, Mu Fanhua put on a white round-neck robe embroidered with cloud patterns and stretched his arms and legs in front of the door, feeling very uncomfortable.

There was a gust of wind, and it was Mu Fanchen who walked over, and that half of his shoulder hit Mu Fanhua's favorite face. Mu Fanhua squinted his eyes, and ran up to Mu Fanchen alertly, stopping him the way to go.

"Morning, big brother?"

"I thought it was someone who was desperate enough to stop me, but I didn't think it was the second brother. I didn't expect the second brother to go out until the sun is up?" Mu Fanchen sneered.

"That's right. I drank several cups of bamboo wine last night, and I was so drunk that I think my elder brother can drink so well. If I didn't drink a pot last night, how could I be worthy of the alcohol you practiced in Jufu in the past?" Mu Fanhua looked at Mu Fanchen's whole body, it was rare for his elder brother to wear such a sassy half-shoulder, it looks like he is about to go out?And let him tease him.

"The taste of bamboo wine is very mediocre, I don't like it for my brother."

After saying this sentence, Mu Fanhua burst out laughing. If you can't drink it, you can't drink it. Why is this?Mu Fanhua laughed loudly and said, "Would you like me to come to Jufu Restaurant to drink better than Auntie Su, a master hand in the General's Mansion? Hahahaha, such an honor, Fan Hua can't afford it, hahaha..."

"You!" Mu Fanchen was choked by Mu Fanhua, "Don't get in the way, I have to go to pay my respects to my father because of my brother." As he said that, he turned sideways and bypassed Mu Fanhua.

Mu Fanhua was clever, stopped him again, and said: "Oh~ big brother, don't worry, I happen to be going to pay my respects to my younger brother, let's go together, together~" He winked at the people on the eaves, and followed Mu Fanchen left behind.

Aomori jumped down from the eaves and followed Mu Fanhua. He didn't quite trust his master after what happened last night. Don't eat the food of a stranger. This is the principle learned by those children crawling all over the ground. Master I just don't understand, I just can't control it when I see something delicious and delicious.If there is another mistake, if the master does not commit the crime, he himself will commit suicide and apologize first.

"Big brother dressed like this is going out? Where are you going?" Mu Fanhua asked.

Mu Fanchen went straight to his own, without looking at Mu Fanhua, Mu Fanhua sneered in his heart, if he didn't tell him, he would just let his father let him pick him up.

"Say hello to father." Mu Fanhua stepped into Mu Zhongzhong's room first.

"Hmm...Fan Chen."

"Yes." Mu Fanchen cupped his hands and took a step forward, Mu Zhongzhong acted as if he hadn't seen Mu Fanhua, Mu Fanhua was dumbfounded.

"I've been back to Beijing for a few days, and I haven't been to the military camp yet. I'm going to the military camp today to see what you've achieved these days. If you don't make any progress, for me..." Mu Zhongcheng narrowed his eyes, Showing a fierce light.

Mu Fanchen lowered his head and kept his composure, but Mu Fanhua was very clear. Mu Fanchen went to Jufulou every day, but he praised the business of Jufulou. How could he grow up if he was accompanied by wine every day? ?

He said: "I heard that my father's martial arts are world-class, and I think my brother is not far behind. Fan Hua has never seen the world, so he still wants to watch it."

"Could it be that you come and go in and out of the military camp at will?" Mu Fanchen said coldly.

"Sigh~ Brother, what you said is wrong. Naturally, you have to be a soldier to enter this barracks. Doesn't being a soldier depend on your good skills? Brother, do you think that I am a dignified general and the second son of the town?" The plowman who plows those fields?"

"It's hard to say."

"According to brother, do you want to fight?" Mu Fanhua gritted his teeth, ready to draw his sword.

Mu Zhongcheng threw the military book in his hand on the table forcefully, and said angrily: "You two have quarreled in just a few days, you don't look like brothers!"

"Big brother should be the one to blame me first." Mu Fanhua's expression changed, and he put his hands behind his back.

"When did I say you were wrong?"

"Enough is enough!" Mu Zhongcheng paced back and forth in front of the two of them, "The son of a general must know a little bit of kung fu, I just wanted Fan Hua to practice with you in the barracks, and it was also for the sake of Daliang's many talents. At the beginning of next spring, Great Liang will conscript the army on a large scale, and when the time comes, Fan Hua will join the army as a father, so you brothers can take care of us, but..." Mu Zhongcheng showed embarrassment.

"Father...doesn't want to bring the baby?" Mu Fanhua looked slightly disappointed.

"This......"

Mu Fanhua suddenly saw a recurve bow hanging on the wall behind Mu Zhongzhong, and stepped forward to take it down in two steps, "If I can shoot the leaves off the willow stick, will Daddy take it with me?" Mu Fanhua Hua pointed to one of the willow branches outside the door.

"Heh, this wicker is a hundred steps away. If you can shoot down a leaf, I will let you go as a guarantee for my brother's death." Archery is not good, could it be that his aunt told him?

Mu Fanhua sneered in his heart, aunt said so what, it's not what it used to be, these two years his hobby is shooting pheasants, and the pear flower valley pheasants are timid, they can't shoot at all if they are not far enough away, Mu Fanchen, Mu Fanchen , this time you fell, right?

"Brother, is it true?"

"really."

"How about high-fiving as an oath?" Mu Fanhua stretched out his palms, and Mu Fanchen clapped reluctantly, feeling like he was about to fall.

Before Mu Zhongcheng could say anything, Mu Fanhua stepped out of the room with a single step, concentrating on calmness, his whole body was full of energy, and his eyes were fixed on the willow leaves.The breeze was blowing, the willows were swaying, and suddenly a sparrow flew down the treetop, blocking Mu Fanhua's sight.

Mu Fanhua stared at him, loosened his grip, and the sharp arrow flew straight towards the willow tree.

"Ah—" A scream echoed in the general's mansion.

"Who is it!" An old nanny looked around under the willow tree, she looked at the arrow feathers, it turned out to be the special tail feathers of a general, is it a general?

Mammy helped Xiao Jingjing who was knocked to the ground by the flying arrow. Xiao Jingjing was pale and sat on the ground in disheveled clothes. It took a long time for her to recover and start arranging her hair.Xiao Jingjing looked at the arrow stuck in the tree, her eyes stared like copper bells, and she walked towards them with her skirt lifted.

Mu Fanhua hung the bow back, as if he didn't see the angry Xiao Jingjing, he patted Mu Fanchen on the chest and said, "Brother, did you fall? I'll wait for you in the hall first!" After finishing speaking, he rubbed his legs with oil Gone.

"Who! Who did it!" Xiao Jingjing yelled at the Mu family father and son.

Mu Zhongzhong and Mu Fanchen looked around and walked out as if they didn't hear.

"The weather today is very good, very suitable for martial arts."

"The sun is good, ahaha..."

The moment Mu Fanchen stepped out of the door, he walked towards the willow tree.The moment he saw the arrow feather, he realized that he had really underestimated this brother of unknown origin.The arrow pierces two leaves and one bird, and shoots an inch into the middle of the willow tree.He pulled out the arrow, looked at the sparrow that was still struggling with the arrow, snorted coldly, and threw the whole arrow on the ground in disgust.

"You...you! You've turned the other way!" Xiao Jingjing watched the Mu family's father and son disperse, stomped her feet angrily, pulled out the jade hairpin from her head and stuck it on the door.

"Just go out, as for?"

"Isn't it?"

A man wearing a black gauze hat was riding on a horse, whispering to the man beside him.

"Hey, that's true, my cousin is so overwhelmed by the country and the city, everyone will take a second look, right?"

"Cousin, brother, Yan, serious... If everyone can fall in love with him, then why don't you express anything?" Mu Fanhua sneered under the black veil. Could it be that grapes are sour because they can’t eat grapes?Just because someone is beautiful doesn't mean they are just a vase, maybe there are hidden weapons inside.

"I won't argue with you." Mu Fanchen rode on the horse expressionlessly, perhaps it was because of Mu Zhongzhong, it was because riding a horse could not be peaceful, men and women gathered together on the street chattering endlessly.

"Cousin has been in the army for many years?" Mu Fanhua asked after changing the subject.

"Four years."

Mu Fanhua heard from Aomori that Mu Fanchen was an eighth-rank official in the Xuanjie school for four years. With Mu Fanchen's skill and background, he didn't believe that he didn't have a sixth-rank official, but maybe it was Mu Zhongcheng's deliberate intention. Because, the ancients used the cloud tree to enjoy the shade, but the ancients also used the cloud tree to attract the wind.

If I secretly acted as a stepping stone for him and lifted him up, he might have a little more trust in himself.But why use yourself as a stepping stone?Moreover, Mu Fanchen is so dull and has no brains, even if he helps him, he might not appreciate it.

Most of the military camps in Kyoto are royal guards in the palace. When selecting them, they select the best from each battalion and put them in. Among them, there are many generals. The nobles of the palace also like to put the sons of the mansion in it to hone for a year or two. Change an official position by pretending to be fake.That is to say, in the Jingdu military camp, they are either idiots or masters, even if they don't have a backer, they still have to give up three points, so as to save themselves and Mu Zhongcheng from getting down.

The barracks passed by in a blink of an eye. There was only such a place in the wilderness where the fence was surrounded by thick-legged wood. The wood was sharpened and surrounded the barracks for three floors.When Mu Zhongzhong wanted to bring them in, the soldiers standing guard at the door blocked their way.

"The military camp is an important place, and idlers can't wait to come in and out!" He said and glanced at Mu Fanhua who was wearing a black gauze hat, and Mu Fanhua readily took off the hat and threw it to Aomori behind him.

Mu Zhongzhong took out the gold medal from his waist and threw it to the soldier, stroked his beard, and said: "Seeing how strict you are, this general will feel at ease."

Xiao Bing looked at the gold medal and heard that the middle-aged man claimed to be a general. He didn't lose his face in panic. He just presented the gold medal with both hands and moved out of the way, which is obviously commonplace.

Mu Fanhua looked back at the little soldiers guarding the gate, and asked, "Are all the soldiers here?"

"No, it depends on the individual, but the one just now is the eldest son of the head of the imperial guard with a sword who was very favored by the late emperor. It must be extraordinary to be the head of the imperial guard with a sword. A tiger father has no dog son. .”

"Father, you know all this? There are tens of millions of people in the military camp, and you remember him?" Mu Fanhua sighed.

"It's just that your father and I were heavily used by the late emperor back then, and the border situation was tense, so we couldn't help going in and out of the palace, and we got close to the head of the guard. It's a pity that we only had one son under our knees and were weak, so we were sent to the army to hone our skills. He has become a pillar of the country, he should be regarded as inheriting his father's career."

"You said he was weak, but you didn't see it."

"He has been in the army for several years." Mu Fanchen said.

"Joined the army for several years and became a guard?!" Mu Fanhua turned back to look at the little soldier standing outside the barracks.

"This is what the former head of the guard quietly ordered. I want to train his character." Mu Fanchen said.

Mu Fanhua sneered, "The world is so hard to see through, hehe..."
