Abandoned daughter takes charge of the family, so rich that even the best people can't envy
Chapter 337 Stepping on the Clouds
At this time, many people had gathered at the gate of Princess Kangle's mansion.
In front of the red notice posted on the left side of the gate, Zhang Zihan wrote with great speed, while someone beside him read with great emotion:
"We are about to go to the war-torn southern border, but we are not afraid of any difficulties or hardships, because behind us stand so many heroes who care about their country and the world. They are like bright stars, shining brightly in the darkness. They donate war horses, money and food, and in various ways compose a grand chapter.
Let us remember their names! They are...
Zhang Zihan paused at this point. Holding the brush, he turned and asked the servant loudly, "Who came in first? How many horses did they donate?"
The servant shouted, "Master, please wait a moment. We are still counting. The princess said we should write a sign first and then parade through the streets holding it."
The person sent by the third prince to deliver the horse had not left yet, and he couldn't help but frowned when he heard this.
Does it take a long time to count more than 20 horses? Even if I study at the doctoral level, I can’t even count 27 of them?
The first on the red list must be their master! Why don’t you write it quickly? What are you waiting for?
The servants in Princess Kangle's mansion are really slow.
He was just about to give a reminder when the sound of horse hooves came, "da da da da", and a large group of horses came in the dust.
Everyone was excited. "It's the Fourth Prince. The Fourth Prince donated a herd of horses. The Fourth Prince is so majestic."
The third prince, who was hiding in the crowd and watching the excitement, narrowed his eyes. He looked at the wheelchair walking in front of the herd of horses and Li Yichen who was pushing the wheelchair. He flicked his clothes and walked out.
"Fourth brother is quite well-informed. How many horses have been donated?"
The Fourth Prince leaned forward in his wheelchair and said, "My younger brother is with my cousin. He has a little more than Third Brother, a total of fifty-four horses."
The third prince choked: This number is exactly double of mine.
The prince arrived in person, and Song Jinxiu greeted him with gratitude. The third and fourth princes, as well as Li Yicheng, quickly bowed in greeting.
Song Jinxiu is the eldest princess, their teacher, and an important official in the court. What she thinks in her heart is another matter, but on the surface, they dare not be arrogant in front of her.
The gatekeepers and servants took the horses and led them in a line. Someone shouted from the side, "His Highness the Fourth Prince has a heart of righteousness. He donated fifty-four horses. He loves his country and his people. His heart is evident!"
At a distant alley intersection, someone also shouted, "His Highness the Fourth Prince has a heart of righteousness. He donated fifty-four horses. He loves his country and his people. His heart is evident!"
The person who was shouting drew out the last syllable, and the Third Prince's eyelids twitched.
The servant who delivered the horse from the Third Prince's Mansion rolled his eyes: When he came to deliver the horse, the servants from Princess Kangle's Mansion didn't shout like that. It was so unfair.
At this time, seven or eight servants came out of the princess's mansion, each of them holding a sign like the one the team leader held when entering the Olympic Games.
In front of the two princes, Zhang Zihan wrote on it: "The patriotic model Fourth Prince donated 54 horses."
After writing the sign, the servant would stand aside holding the sign and mark time, waiting for the other person to finish writing the sign so that they could parade together.
Zhang Zihan wrote on another sign: Patriotic model, the Third Prince donated a horse...
The Third Prince saw this operation.
Princess Kangle wants everyone in the capital to know about this!
He quickly said, "Wait a minute, the horses I donated are still on the way, no more, no less, fifty-four."
Song Jinxiu laughed in her heart: You little brats, I knew you little guys like to compare with each other.
Treasure Hunter Junjun: Are you much older than them? As far as I can remember from my past life, I was only in my twenties.
So Zhang Zihan also wrote on the sign: The patriotic model Third Prince donated 54 horses.
The person sent by the eldest prince to gather information saw this scene and rushed back to report the news.
Soon, the eldest prince sent a message saying that the horses he donated would arrive soon, no more, no less, exactly fifty-four.
In fact, he really wanted to mention a few more horses, but when he thought about the fact that the third and fourth brothers were both in Princess Kangle's mansion, if he donated one more horse, these two troublesome brothers would definitely follow suit. So, fifty-four horses is fifty-four horses, at least it's the same and he is not outdone.
When the Fourth Prince saw the servants parading through the streets holding signs with words on them, he couldn't help but chuckle. Song Jinxiu was truly a brilliant person, to have come up with such a method.
His Majesty the Emperor soon found out about the excitement here. His little girl was dissatisfied with the lack of cavalry and actually used this method to search for Roman horses?
But, can war horses be replaced by ordinary horses?
War horses need to undergo rigorous training.
Through training, war horses' reflexes, vision, hearing, smell, and sense of touch are all more acute, allowing them to help their owners detect threats promptly and take appropriate measures. They also possess strong psychological qualities and adaptability, enabling them to remain calm in battle, remain fearless, and rise to the challenge.
In an ordinary horse-riding battlefield, the timid ones would probably lose their legs and feet in fear when they saw the gleaming swords and smelled the blood, and might even try to flee.
Eunuch Hai was equally worried and asked Zhu Beichen, "Does the princess need a warhorse?"
Zhu Beichen said, "The princess quietly told me that as long as it's a healthy horse, it will be of great use to her."
When the emperor heard this, he laughed heartily and waved his hand: "I will donate 100 horses. Pick out the best ones and send them to her."
"Yes"
The emperor had his own imperial zoo, and Eunuch Hai personally selected the ones with the best teeth and sent them to Song Jinxiu.
Princess Kangle raised funds, and the emperor and the other princes set an example. The empress followed suit and ordered the people in the imperial farm to collect horses and donated 56 horses.
Then the concubines in the harem and the ministers with discerning eyes also followed.
When the boss wanted to raise funds, the wealthy people in the capital naturally showed their support. One sent three or five horses, and another sent three or five horses. Some wealthy merchants also got the news and donated money.
Grand Princess Mansion.
The Grand Princess sneered and said, "What an ignorant child! Recruiting civilians to ride on the battlefield? Isn't that courting death? Go, gather hundreds of horses from our farm and send them to her."
Since Song Jinxiu is going to southern Xinjiang to supervise the army, she has to reconsider her marriage with the eldest prince.
In that case, it would be better for this girl to die outside.
Before setting off, Song Jinxiu actually organized a cavalry unit of 1,000 men. Of course, these men were all selected from the infantry of the Xishan camp.
Before setting off, Song Jinxiu was inspecting the troops in the parade ground. She was dressed in military uniform and rode a black Arabian horse.
This horse has a long back and a short, straight waist. The joints and tendons of its limbs are well-developed, and its fur is like black silk, fluttering gently in the breeze.
More importantly, it has a pair of human-like eyes, as if it can understand human language.
Because it looked exactly like the black horse of the Overlord of Western Chu, with a body as shiny as black satin and snow-white hooves, Song Jinxiu named it "Tayun".
