Chapter 9 All Horses Are the Same



Yuan Mansion.

"What?"

Yuan Cong suddenly stood up and kicked Yuan Gui to the ground, roaring, "You beast, you dare to push the Sixth Prince off his horse? Do you want to die?"

"Dad, I really didn't push him down!"

Yuan Gui fell to the ground and cried, "It was obvious that he fell down by himself!"

"fart!"

Yuan Cong was furious, "You were the one who pushed him down, why are you laughing?"

"I……"

Yuan Gui choked slightly and kept crying out for injustice in his heart.

"Master, don't be angry!"

...

...

Yuan's mother stepped forward and said with a smile: "Isn't he just a cowardly Sixth Prince? Even if Gui'er deliberately pushed him off the throne, so what? The emperor probably doesn't even remember this son, so how could he be so upset because of this coward..."

Bang!

Before Yuan's mother could finish her words, Yuan Cong slapped her hard in the face.

Yuan Cong glared at his wife and roared, "The Sixth Prince now only wants to go to the border to die. Your Majesty is now feeling sorry for this son who has been forgotten by him for too long. You tell me that everything is alright?"

"What?"

Mother Yuan's face changed drastically, and she even forgot the pain on her face. "Then...what should we do now? If His Majesty knew about this, would he execute Gui'er?"

Yuan's mother was in a state of panic and no longer as calm as before.

"What should I do? What else can I do?"

Yuan Cong looked at his son with hatred and said angrily: "Get up quickly, come with me, and prepare a generous gift to apologize to the Sixth Prince!"

"well……"

Yuan Gui got up hurriedly.

Soon, the father and son went to the Sixth Prince's Mansion with generous gifts.

In order to save time, they didn't even take the carriage and rode directly on horseback.

They must apologize to Yun Zheng before Emperor Wen finds out!

As long as Yun Zheng accepts the gift, it means he forgives Yuan Gui!

Even if His Majesty investigates the matter later, he won’t be too severe!

The two of them hurried all the way and finally arrived at Yun Zheng's residence.

Looking at the box in the hands of the father and son, Yun Zheng couldn't help but feel a little excited.

I don’t know what gifts they brought.

If it wasn't valuable, this matter wouldn't be so easy to get over.

"Yuan Cong failed to educate his son properly, causing him to offend His Highness the Sixth Prince. I have specially brought my son and some small gifts to apologize to Your Highness. I hope Your Highness will be magnanimous and forgive my son."

Yuan Cong saluted respectfully.

This was the first time he saluted Yun Zheng so respectfully.

Having said that, Yuan Cong quickly asked Yuan Gui, who was kneeling on the ground, to open the wooden box.

Inside the wooden box, there lies a set of crystal clear wine utensils.

There are wine jugs and wine glasses.

At first glance, you can tell that it is made of the finest white jade and is carefully carved.

Well, not bad!

I estimate it should be worth several thousand taels of silver.

"I know Captain Yuan didn't mean it."

Yun Zheng smiled innocently and suddenly asked, "By the way, General Yuan, how is your handwriting?"

"this……"

Yuan Cong didn't know what Yun Zheng meant, so he smiled and said, "I am just a warrior, and my handwriting is really not that good."

Isn't this about making amends?

How did it get to the point of how well he writes?

Could it be that he wanted them and his son to write a letter of repentance?

"It doesn't matter, as long as you write better than me."

Yun Zheng smiled indifferently, then said embarrassedly: "I plan to host a banquet for all the officials in the court the day after tomorrow to celebrate moving into the new house, but I don't know all the officials in the court very well, and I can't even recognize them all. I would like to ask General Yuan to help write the invitations!"

Write an invitation?

Yuan Cong's face twitched violently, and after hesitating for a moment, he was forced to agree.

Yun Zheng hadn’t even accepted the gift.

He didn't even say whether he forgave Yuan Gui or not!

Now that Yun Zheng asked him for help, he had to help!

Soon, Yun Zheng asked someone to bring pen, ink and invitation cards, and asked Yuan Gui to help grind the ink.

Yuan Cong gritted his teeth and wrote one by one.

Although Yuan Cong was a military man, he had to write memorials frequently. Although his handwriting was not very good, it was relatively neat.

Yuan Cong wrote until the afternoon and finally finished writing more than a hundred invitations.

During this time, Yun Zheng had some tea and snacks served.

During this period, Yun Zheng also selected some invitations and asked the servants in the mansion to send them out as soon as possible.

"General Yuan is so modest. Your handwriting is much better than mine."

Yun Zheng smiled and praised Yuan Cong, "I will personally deliver invitations to some important officials in the court, so I won't keep you for dinner."

"well."

Yuan Cong nodded repeatedly and asked, "Then has Your Highness forgiven me?"

"What's the point of forgiving or not forgiving?"

Yun Zheng waved his hand, "I didn't take it seriously. I know Captain Yuan didn't mean it."

“Yes, yes!”

Yuan Cong felt relieved and glared at Yuan Gui again, "Why don't you thank His Highness?"

Yuan Gui felt very aggrieved, but he said with a stiff upper lip: "Thank you for your magnanimity, Your Highness."

"Okay, I'll take you out!"

Yun Zheng said with a smile.

"I dare not trouble your highness."

Yuan Cong said flattered.

"fine!"

Yun Zheng waved his hand, "You helped me so much, it's only right that I see you off."

The father and son had no choice but to walk out with a smile on their faces.

When they came outside, the servants had already brought the horses for the father and son.

“This horse…”

Seeing the horse in front of him, Yuan Cong couldn't help but smile.

This isn't their horse at all!

"What happened to the horse?"

Yun Zheng asked in a confused manner.

"Your Highness, this is not our father and son's horse."

Yuan Cong said stubbornly.

"Ah? Not your horses?"

Yun Zheng pretended to be confused, scratched his head and asked, "Could it be that the horse I asked the servants in the mansion to ride out just now was your horse?"

Ride away?

Both father and son slapped their faces.

"General Yuan, I'm so sorry!"

Yun Zheng said with an apologetic look on his face: "I just moved in today. The horses were prepared by my father in advance. I didn't know..."

“No…it’s okay!”

Yuan Cong's heart was bleeding, but he said with gritted teeth: "All horses are the same, we will just exchange two horses with His Highness."

“That’s right.”

Yun Zheng nodded in agreement: "As for horses, as long as they can be ridden, it's fine."

Just being able to ride...is okay?

Yuan Cong's heart was bleeding and he almost wanted to ask Yun Zheng's whole family.

As long as you can ride it, it’s fine!

The horses he and his son ride on are carefully selected top-quality war horses, worth hundreds of gold!

What kind of broken horse did he give himself?

This is a fucking pack horse!

Even if it was a gift from the emperor, it would be worth at most one or two hundred taels of silver.

He took down the other horses and exchanged them for his own superior warhorse!

And you say it’s okay as long as you can ride?

If he hadn't considered that Yun Zheng was a loser who couldn't even ride a horse, he would have suspected that Yun Zheng did it on purpose!

Yun Zheng had said so much, and the father and son had nothing more to say. They could only bite the bullet and ride their horses back home.

As he watched the two people go away, a sly smile flashed across Yun Zheng's face.

"Dad, why don't you take our horses back? Our two horses together are worth two or three hundred gold!"

On the way, Yuan Gui asked dissatisfiedly.

"Others have already ridden away, why do you want one?"

Yuan Cong glared at his son, "If you hadn't caused the trouble, would there have been any of these messes?"

Their horses were ridden away, and they had no choice but to swallow their blood with gritted teeth.

My son is depressed, and he is still depressed!

Those two war horses were considered top-quality war horses even in Beihuan, which had no shortage of cavalry!

In Dagan where war horses are scarce, this kind of high-quality war horse is not something you can buy just if you want it!

Compared to these two horses, their apology gifts are nothing!

Thinking about the two war horses worth two or three hundred gold coins, Yuan Cong felt like vomiting blood...
