"That's right. Next, let's go to the stables in the city."

There are several horse owners who have opened stables in the capital, all of which were established with the support of the imperial court's horse policy.

The two then came to the horse farm closest to the palace.

"My lady, this horse farm has a total of 20 horses, including one Ferghana horse, 12 fine horses, and the rest are all draft horses."

"Although there aren't many, at least we can find horses here. The horses here are better than those in the villages outside."

Jin Lianhua introduced while knocking on the door.

"Is anyone there?"

When she knocked on the door, someone came to open it.

Jin Lianhua briefly introduced herself and then took Qian Ruoyu into the yard.

After all, they were just here to see the horses temporarily, so neither Qian Ruoyu nor Jin Lianhua hid their identities but introduced themselves directly.

Ma Hu introduced.

"Princess Ye, these are all the horses we have in our house. The ones in the corner are draft horses we keep here. If the court needs them, we will send someone to take them away at any time."

"As for the Ferghana horses and fine horses, you need a manual from the Ministry of War to take them away. Why did you suddenly come to our place to look at horses?"

After taking a look at all the stables, I found that the horses here were indeed very well-raised, and even looked more beautiful than the horses in Liu Bei's military camp.

Qian Ruoyu coughed lightly and then spoke calmly.

"Well, after all, I have now established a bandit suppression army under the authorization of His Majesty. Although I don't need cavalry for the time being, at least I and my deputy general should ride horses, right?"

"So come and see how your horses are."

After hearing what she said, Ma Hu smiled and immediately agreed.

"I see! If the princess wants to test drive the horse, you can ride it now. This Arabian horse we have here was carefully selected."

"This Ferghana horse needs to be fed four times a day. The first three times are fed six pounds of grass, and the last time is fed four pounds of special concentrated feed. It can be said that it is extremely hard work. If it weren't for us horse breeders who take good care of it every day, how could the court get so many Ferghana horses?"

When the horse owner was introducing the Ferghana horses, he praised and flattered them, with a proud expression on his face.

Qian Ruoyu said to the horse owner as he walked towards the stable of the Ferghana horse.

"Thank you so much for your hard work."

With just these few words, the horse owner immediately ran over, opened the stable of the Arabian horse, and led the horse out.

The moment she saw the horse again, a trace of relief appeared on her face, and even Jin Lianhua hurried to her side.

"My queen, I never thought this was the legendary Ferghana horse. If you could ride on it, you would be so majestic!"

Ma Hu said immediately.

"That's right, Madam, let me help you get on the horse! There is a small horse racing track behind our yard, you can try it there."

Qian Ruoyu, who traveled back from the modern times, naturally had never ridden a horse before. Now, looking at this tall horse, she was already beginning to be moved.

Then she was helped onto the horse.

The horse owner also kindly introduced horse riding techniques and led the horse to the racecourse behind.

The racecourse was not big, only twice as wide as the stable, and Jin Lianhua on the side watched carefully, fearing that Qian Ruoyu would fall off the horse.

"Princess, you can start now. Please drive this horse yourself. The Arabian horse is very human-like. You only need to shout a few words and it will let you drive it immediately."

Qian Ruoyu nodded slightly and lightly whipped the horse's butt with the whip. The horse immediately started to move forward, looking extremely stable.

A smile immediately appeared on her face. After all, she had almost never ridden a horse by herself in her life, and now she was riding one by herself.

After a while, she jumped off the horse, and her heart became even more fond of the Arabian horse.

"How do you deal with your horse...or rather, your horses?"

Thinking of what he said about the Ferghana horses, which could only be used by a transfer order issued by the Ministry of War herself, made her feel even more unhappy.

You can't just go to the Ministry of War and threaten the people there just because of a Ferghana horse, right?

But after hearing what she said, Ma Hu said nervously.

"This... Madam, what do you mean by this? There is nothing wrong with you trying to ride a horse here, but these horses cannot be handled casually!"

"Without the official approval from Ma Zheng Temple, it will be useless even if the prince himself comes, not to mention you!"

"It's not that I don't want to help you, it's just that I can't do this kind of thing. You can't take even a horse away from here! The Horse Administration is the same level as the Imperial Household Department. I'm afraid no one can help you with this matter!"

When Qian Ruoyu suddenly heard what he said, although her face showed no emotion, she was actually feeling happy in her heart.

Since it is at the same level as the Imperial Household Department, and is also the Imperial Palace's Internal Affairs Department, this means that Liu Dehai can obviously help him!

It seems that there is no need to discuss this matter with Ma Hu in front of me. Perhaps this matter can be handled faster by finding Liu Dehai!

But she remained calm and just spoke calmly to the horse owner in front of her.

"I see. If that's the case, I won't bother you anymore. I thought I could borrow a horse."

After saying this, Qian Ruoyu immediately left with Jin Lianhua. Although she didn't know what she meant, Jin Lianhua didn't express her doubts.

But after returning to the palace, she said to Jin Lianhua.

"Do you think that in addition to the palace guards, we should set up another barrier specifically to protect me and the prince?"

"After all, you will not only be training the palace guards, but you will also be the deputy general of my bandit suppression army."

Jin Lianhua thought carefully, "You are right... After all, we have offended so many people, so it is not a problem to set up some personal guards."

In Jin Lianhua's heart, Qian Ruoyu was naturally regarded as the first, so she was also seriously considering what she said.

"Then how many personal guards do you think would be a good idea? I'll take care of that."

Qian Ruoyu raised three fingers without hesitation, "Still three hundred."

Jin Lianhua's eyes widened. "Ah, do you need 300 personal guards as well?"
