Chapter 362: The Little Scholar in Male Disguise and the Amazing Emperor 20
Dressed in grassland attire, Cha Jiu behaved in a graceful and elegant manner, showing neither flattery nor hypocrisy.
She gives people the feeling that she truly accepts the culture of the grassland people.
This attitude made many grassland officials who originally hated the hypocrisy of the Central Plains people couldn't help but feel good about her.
At this time, Yelu Zongzhen's most beloved cousin, Yelu Chaluo, who was also the Yuan Dynasty's frontier general, came over with interest and looked Cha Jiu up and down.
"I didn't expect that Lord He, who usually looks so elegant in a scholar's long gown, now looks so suitable in the attire of a grassland man. He is simply unrestrained and handsome."
Cha Jiu bowed in return: "Thank you, General."
Cha Le's eyes flashed with a wicked smile, and he deliberately asked: "Then what do you think, Lord He, is your Central Plains clothing better, or our grassland clothing?"
This is a tricky question. If you don't answer it well, you will offend people.
However, Cha Jiu smiled slightly and said, "What is you, and what is us? Now that Your Majesty is promoting the policy of integrating the two races, the grassland people and the Central Plains Han people should not distinguish between you and me, and should not compare who is superior or inferior, but work together to create a prosperous Yuan Dynasty."
This is a brilliant answer.
If an ordinary person were to answer, they would either choose one of the two, which would inevitably offend one party, and this is the worst option; or they would comment on the pros and cons of both without making any comparison between the two. Although this would not offend anyone, it would also seem hypocritical and boring, and this is the middle way.
Cha Jiu directly skipped the answer and pointed out the loophole in the question itself.
The two races should not be compared, and cannot be compared, otherwise it would be against Your Majesty's will.
Cha Le naturally understood.
But he was a reckless man who was not afraid of anything, so he continued to ask: "I clearly asked about clothes, but Lord He answered about people. Isn't this too opportunistic?"
Cha Jiu had a sly smile in his eyes: "I wear court clothes in the temple, riding clothes in the hunting ground, and casual clothes for private visits. Whatever clothes and appearance Your Majesty requires me to appear in, that is the best."
Cha Le clicked his tongue and said, "As expected of the number one scholar that His Majesty has been talking about every day, he is indeed smart and eloquent."
Yelu Zongzhen, who was standing aside, just smiled and said nothing.
But anyone with a discerning eye could see the pride and complacency in his eyes.
Cha Le was confused.
He was praising Cha Jiu.
Your Majesty, why are you so proud?
However, after this question and answer session, the relationship between Cha Le and Cha Jiu became much closer.
All the way to the hunting grassland, he kept chattering about hunting traditions to Chajiu.
"…The first arrow of this hunt was shot by your majesty, and it shot a deer with one arrow, inspiring people."
Chalu admired Yelu Zongzheng very much: "When my cousin... Your Majesty was fourteen years old, he could draw a fifteen-stone bow and shoot a tiger to death with one arrow, and his arrows never missed."
Cha Jiu exclaimed in amazement: "Then I must broaden my horizons today."
Cha Le looked at her with regret: "You may not be able to see it. Your Majesty will have to ride a horse for dozens of miles during the competition, and you don't know how to ride a horse, so you can only stand there and stare."
Cha Jiu: “…”
All right.
Yelu Zongzhen, who was walking in front, was talking to the ministers while paying attention to the conversation between the two people behind him.
He suddenly stopped and turned to look at Cha Jiu: "Want to see me shoot a deer?"
Cha Jiu was startled for a moment, then reacted and nodded obediently.
A faint smile flashed across Yelu Zongzheng's eyes, "This is not difficult."
Cha Le thought about it and comforted Cha Jiu, "Yes, it's not difficult. I'll take you there on horseback."
As soon as he finished speaking, Charles felt a sharp gaze flash across his face.
But when he looked around blankly, he didn't find any suspicious spies or assassins.
strangeness.
…
The hunt officially begins.
Everyone gathered on the endless grassland, and the hunting teams were in high spirits, ready to go.
Among them, Yelu Zongzheng's figure is particularly outstanding.
He was already tall and strong, and now riding on a tall horse, he looked even more majestic like a mountain. And wearing a neat navy blue riding suit with a folded collar, his temperament looked as sharp as a blade out of its sheath, extremely sharp.
A falconer raised his arm high and brought a majestic white-feathered gyrfalcon to the emperor with some difficulty.
The white-feathered gyrfalcon had sharp eyes and was very arrogant. But when the falcon trainer untied the shackles on its feet, it fell obediently on Yelu Zongzheng's shoulders, bowed its head in submission, and showed an intimate attitude.
Cha Le was surprised: "Your Majesty actually wants to use the white-feathered gyrfalcon!"
Cha Jiu didn't understand why he was so surprised.
Cha Le explained, "The gyrfalcon is the god of all eagles, and the white-feathered ones are the rarest. The one your majesty has is the most ferocious among our tribe. It can kill people and hunt animals, so it is not easily shown to others."
The last time I saw it was on the battlefield, it was so powerful and pecking at the enemy's eyes.
I don't know why His Majesty brought it to this little hunting scene today.
Cha Jiu looked at Yelu Zongzheng's back, thoughtfully.
At this time, a row of guards dressed in deerskin and deer head masks blew the gold-painted deer whistles in their hands.
The whistle sounded clear and melodious, like the call of a doe, and soon attracted several male deer to appear and slowly approach.
Everyone held their breath.
Yelu Zongzheng sat steadily on the horse's back without moving, but his deep and sharp eyes kept following the movements of several stags in the distance.
The gyrfalcon was equally calm, waiting for its chance.
Suddenly, he lowered his head and communicated with the gyrfalcon on his shoulder in some ancient mysterious language.
Then the man and the eagle rushed out at the same time, rushing towards the stags at lightning speed!
"What language did Your Majesty use to communicate with Giraffar?" Cha Jiu was curious.
Cha Le shook his head: "I don't know either. Only a few people in the tribe can communicate with the Eagle God. This is an ability given to them by God. We can't understand it, nor can we learn it."
So magical
Cha Jiu turned his attention back to Yelu Zongzheng who was hunting.
But just as Cha Le said at the beginning, his figure gradually faded away in the process of chasing the stag.
She couldn't help feeling a little regretful.
It seems that we won’t be able to see the heroic figure of the emperor shooting a deer today.
However.
A quarter of an hour later.
The figures of the emperors competing for supremacy appeared in sight again!
Everyone's eyes widened.
Cha Jiu couldn't help but hold his breath and concentrate.
The fierce and majestic gyrfalcon was seen in the air with its wings fully spread, blocking out the sunlight and casting a shadow, driving the two stags back with its oppressive force!
Yelu Zongzhen approached from the side, his eyes sharp as a torch, and he aimed the right angle and shot an arrow with a full bow.
The arrow had the force to penetrate a mountain, and it made a sharp sound as it broke through the sky, piercing the throats of two stags at the same time!
Kill two deer with one arrow!
What a momentum!
Everyone was shocked, and when they reacted, they cheered non-stop!
Yelu Zongzhen's gaze was very calm. It was focused on the petite green figure across the grassland and the crowd.
Seeing her eyes full of amazement and her mouth open in shock, a hint of joy finally appeared on his solemn face.
Check the head.
This is another case of sending out white falcons, killing two birds with one stone...
Why does it feel like His Majesty is particularly fond of showing off today?
