Starting from a thatched cottage, the farmer embarked on the road to wealth through imperial examina

Since Li Ping had already said this, Ye Changyan and Liang Jingcheng had no choice but to nod and agree.

"Since Master Li asked me to go to the stable to choose a horse, I don't think I need to go to the stable. I have had several lessons with this chestnut horse, and we have become familiar with each other and established trust. I wonder if I can choose this chestnut horse?"

Li Ping smiled and nodded.

"Of course you can. Although this chestnut horse is not a rare breed, judging from the few laps it trotted just now, its explosive power and speed are quite good among horses of this medium size. Since Master Ye has chosen this chestnut horse, I will give it to you. I will ask them to help Brother Ye to prepare the delivery certificate, and you can take it away at any time. Of course, if you want to foster it at a stable, that is also completely fine. The cost of feeding and caring for it will be charged to the stable."

Ye Changyan looked delighted and bowed to Li Ping to express his gratitude. Then they both turned their eyes to Liang Jingcheng standing beside him.

"Since Master Li is so kind, I will not refuse. I will do the same as my junior brother and choose the white horse I am riding today. What do you think, Master Li?"

Li Ping raised his eyes to look at the white horse that was leisurely eating grass not far away, and turned his head to show an admiring look.

"Mr. Liang has a good eye. That white horse is a fine breed imported from the Mobei Sand Tent Royal Court. This kind of horse is tall and has good endurance, making it suitable for long-distance riding. Since Mr. Liang likes this white horse, I will give it to him."

"I haven't studied horse breeds, so I didn't know why I picked such a valuable breed right away. How about changing to another one?"

"Mr. Liang, what you said means you don't consider me a friend. I told you to pick your own horse. Since you picked this one, then this is it!"

"This will cost Master Li a lot of money."

Hearing Li Ping say this, Liang Jingcheng smiled and bowed to Li Ping to express his gratitude.

"Then you two should give your horses a resounding name. The stable manager will write down the names of these two horses on the delivery book later."

Ye Changyan thought for a moment and came up with a name.

"Since Master Li just mentioned that this chestnut horse has good explosive power and speed, let's call it Red Tassel. Just like the Red Tassel Spear, it can burst out at an astonishing speed in an instant."

"That's a good name, Jingzong. Remember this chestnut horse will be called Hongying from now on."

After hearing Li Ping's instructions, Xu Jingzong nodded in agreement.

"Mr. Li just said that this white horse has great endurance. So I will call this white horse Blowing Snow. This horse is like snow blown up by a strong wind, galloping to a distant place beyond the sight."

"You two brothers are indeed worthy of being fellow disciples. The names you gave to the horses are so meaningful."

"My fellow disciples are students of the Imperial Academy, and we are not allowed to go out at will. We are riding horses at the stable today, and we only need to return to the dormitory before midnight tonight. Since my fellow disciples have accepted Master Li's fine horse, we would like to invite Master Li to Yunfeng Tower tonight for a few drinks. What do you think?"

"Hahaha...that couldn't be better. It's all up to you two brothers to arrange."

Li Ping laughed heartily and then made a suggestion.

"It's really worthwhile to come to this racecourse today and meet you two brothers. I feel really happy now. How about the three of us brothers ride our horses and run a few more laps in this racecourse?"

Ye Changyan and Liang Jingcheng were very excited about Li Ping's proposal, but Ye Changyan had just learned horse riding. Although he had already run a few laps in the field, since his equestrian teacher Wang Ke was present, he had to ask Wang Ke for his opinion anyway.

Ye Changyan trotted a few steps to Wang Ke, who was looking Xuan Lei up and down, and briefly told Wang Ke about the matter. Although Wang Ke was a little worried, he nodded and agreed.

"You have only just learned to ride a horse, so do everything within your ability. Don't be aggressive or aggressive."

Ye Changyan solemnly assured Wang Ke that he would do things within his ability and pay attention to safety, and Wang Ke nodded with satisfaction.

Under the attention of the crowd, three horses, black, white and red, galloped out. The black horse, Xuan Lei, was in the lead, far ahead all the way. Liang Jingcheng's tall white horse, Chuixue, followed closely behind. Ye Changyan's horse, Hongying, was smaller than the two horses in front, one black and one white.

But as Li Ping said, Hongying's explosive power and speed were very good. Although she came in last, she was not too far behind Xuan Lei and Chuixue. Moreover, Hongying was also galloping at full speed. In a contest that was not of the same level, it was indeed a good result to have such a result.

Even the equestrian teacher Wang Ke who was watching the scene praised Hongying's performance. What surprised him even more was Ye Changyan's performance. Ye Changyan was a student who was personally taught step by step from introducing saddles and harnesses to practicing mounting and dismounting horses. In just a few classes, Ye Changyan was able to control this chestnut horse to achieve such a result as the two famous horses in front. Wang Ke secretly praised Ye Changyan for being a very talented student.

Ye Changyan was just as Li Ping said. After running a few laps with Li Ping before, he was completely scared. Now Ye Changyan felt extremely refreshed riding a horse at full speed.

After a day of equestrian lessons, when leaving the stable, Ye Changyan and Liang Jingcheng both received the horse delivery certificates issued by the stable manager. Although Hongying and Chuixue are still kept at the stable, they already have their own new identities and owners.

The heroic performance of Hongying on the horse farm today impressed all the students of the Imperial College, the equestrian teachers and the breeders of the horse farm. They did not expect that a horse of this size could have such potential.

Since they had an appointment with Li Ping to go to Yunfeng Tower, Ye Changyan and Liang Jingcheng said hello to their classmates from the Imperial Academy, including Ao Chong'an and Fan Tao, and got on Li Ping's carriage.

When they arrived at Yunfeng Tower, the shopkeeper Quan Youfang warmly invited Ye Changyan and others to go to the private room on the second floor.

"It seems that the two brothers are quite familiar with the owner of this restaurant?"

Quan Youfang made all the arrangements and left the private room, only to see Li Ping raising an eyebrow at Ye Changyan and asking.

“Regulars, regulars.”

Ye Changyan did not explain in detail about his relationship with the owner of Yunfeng Tower. Even the owner of Yunfeng Tower, Quan Youfang, only knew that Ye Changyan was his owner's future brother-in-law, but was unaware that Ye Changyan held 40% of the shares of Shengjing Yunfeng Tower.
