The substitute prince: Reported the emperor's brother at the beginning

Ning Yi watched about twenty boys doing morning exercises in the mansion early in the morning.

Qin Haifeng, dressed in a tight suit, stood beside him and asked doubtfully, "Your Highness, training like this won't be very useful, will it?"

Ever since Ning Yi came back from court last time, he hadn't been punished at all, and he even let Han Donglin and the other three go and ask for money and food from other tribes.

Qin Haifeng was already shocked enough. A third-rank official was killed, and it just happened like that?

Is this still the Dawu Kingdom I know? Why is it so comfortable compared to the barbarians in the north?

Ning Yi has not left the house recently, but has been training these so-called servants in the yard.

During the day, we found an old teacher to teach them how to read, and they trained in the morning and evening.

Qin Haifeng really didn't understand why His Highness did this.

You said you wanted to select book boys, so let them learn etiquette and study the books of sages.

If you want to train some young servants, just train their physical fitness and martial arts.

So what's the deal with this person who is neither civil nor martial?

Ning Yi remained unmoved. He looked at the sweaty teenagers running around the front yard and shouted, "Zhang Jinyu, step out."

In the team, a young man who had just looked around had to come out obediently when Ning Yi called him.

"Speaker, ten lashes."

Soon, a servant came with a whip and whipped him on the back.

The dark-skinned boy was beaten so hard that he screamed and jumped around.

After the beating, let him continue to run.

Ning Yi then acted as if he had just heard Qin Haifeng's question and said calmly, "Of course it is useful."

"They will be the prince's true right-hand men in the future."

they?

The corners of Qin Haifeng's mouth twitched wildly. It was hard to tell what kind of future he would have.

I guess the only thing that can be trained is to be obedient, but it turns out that he is only half-baked in civil and military skills, so what's the use?

"But, Your Highness, what's the point of just running laps and standing in line every day?"

Ning Yi rolled his eyes at the curious old man: "This is just the beginning."

"Didn't I ask you to find twenty war horses today? Select ten and have these twenty people train to ride them."

"Ah?" Qin Haifeng was in disbelief. They actually wanted to learn horse riding?

He immediately stopped her, "Your Highness, this is not possible. I had to go through so much trouble to get twenty war horses from the army, even though they only gave us twenty horses as guards for our palace. No more than that."

"Those guards are there to protect His Highness. They should be trained well instead of wasting their time on these little brats."

Qin Haifeng almost named these twenty useless bastards.

After thinking about it, I decided to change them to the little guys. No matter what, these twenty people were also servants selected by His Highness. Although the so-called servants were also servants, they had a certain status.

Ning Yi was too lazy to listen to him ramble on: "Give them ten horses, that's an order."

Qin Haifeng had no choice but to accept the order.

"Also, find some formidable cavalry and train them well. This prince wants them all trained to be elite soldiers who can kill on horseback and fight on foot."

It can be seen that Ning Yi attaches great importance to these twenty young teenagers.

When they were all sweating profusely from running, they stood in front of Ning Yi again.

Ning Yi began to praise them again, saying that each of them performed well.

Then he pointed out a few who performed poorly.

They were all whipped and their backs were burning with pain.

"Starting today, we will get up at dawn for morning exercises, have literacy classes in the morning, physical training in the afternoon, and horseback riding training in the evening."

As soon as Ning Yi said this, the twenty young men immediately started buzzing with discussion among themselves, riding a horse?

They all fled to the capital from their hometowns. None of them had ever ridden a horse.

However, each of them has the dream of becoming a general, fantasizing that after riding a horse, they will become heroes who go into battle and kill the enemy.

Ning Yi asked someone to give some medicine to the people who were whipped and to go back and treat their wounds properly.

Several people immediately bowed to Ning Yi in gratitude: "Thank you, sir."

This was Ning Yi's request. Only the twenty of them were allowed to call him Sir instead of His Highness.

Considering the standard of a book boy, it is reasonable to call him "sir".

Ning Yi also wanted to cultivate a sense of closeness between them and himself.

After they dispersed and left in groups of three or five.

Qin Haifeng looked at these little brats with dissatisfaction. They actually knew how to snatch good things from the guards. They were useless trash.

Ning Yi frowned as he looked at the guards who had gathered together to watch the fun.

"From now on, the guards will also do drills before sunrise."

"Ah? Them?" Qin Haifeng was surprised: "Your Highness, they need to train Kung Fu every day."

"Running for a quarter of an hour every day won't interfere with your training." Ning Yi interrupted him and said, "Persisting in running for many days will improve your health."

He left after saying this.

Qin Haifeng was speechless and had no idea where His Highness got this training method from.

No matter how you look at it, it seems unreliable. What's the point of running training every day? Do you think you can become stronger by getting up early in the morning and running a lap?

It's useless except for making you run faster.

Ning Yi came back, washed his face thoroughly, and changed into casual clothes from the training clothes specially made according to his instructions.

He also runs a lap in the morning. Morning is the best time to exercise, so naturally he doesn't want to miss it.

But this loose robe with big sleeves is too uncomfortable.

Ning Yi simply had people change the sleeves of the casual clothes worn in the mansion into narrow ones, and the long robes into slim ones, and then put on belts, which made them much more comfortable.

It's just that others think I'm too awkward and different.

It's familiar. I always feel that the Sixth Prince has become a different person, and his daily routine has changed a lot.

The former Sixth Prince was extremely lazy and would never do anything.

Not to mention running laps in the morning, even the shoes were put on by the maids.

She had a very bad temper. If she felt a little uncomfortable when the maid wiped her face with a towel, she would be beaten severely at the very least, and at the worst, she would be sold directly to a brothel.

The Sixth Prince now actually washes and wipes his face by himself. It’s so rare.

Qin Haifeng also took the initiative to ask two smart maids to serve him.

Ning Yi refused because all the maids in the mansion were members of the Yang family brought by Yang Ziqin.

He no longer trusted the Yang family, so naturally he stayed away from them.

As for buying another maid, he refused directly. Last time, something happened and all the servants ran away. He didn't trust anyone and was even more worried that someone would plant spies in. This reason was sufficient enough.

While having breakfast, Yang Ziqin came slowly, followed by two inseparable personal maids.

Qin Haifeng immediately bowed and saluted: "Greetings, Princess."

"Yeah." Yang Ziqin ignored him and walked past him expressionlessly.

Qin Haifeng went out immediately.

Ning Yi looked up at her in confusion: "What's the big deal?"

Yang Ziqin was also surprised to see Ning Yi eating breakfast with chopsticks by himself.

As far as I can remember, the Sixth Prince used to have his meals served by maids, and they were just short of feeding him.

Without asking any more questions, she stood before him and said calmly, "Your Highness, what do you mean by saying this?"

"Just because I came to see you, something big must be happening?"
