Settled in the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 312 The Saint skipped work to go hunting

Woke up in the morning, used it early, and went to work in good spirits——

If you want to leave work a little earlier to visit Princess Pingyang, you must hurry up and read the information.In the Tang Dynasty, there were no thread-bound books, and all the books were in the form of scrolls. Therefore, it seems that there are a lot of materials in the classics room, but it actually seems to be quite fast.After watching it for a few days, Xue Lang has basically finished it.

Went to the Ministry of Civil Affairs to read a book for a while, before eating, someone came from the palace, it was a servant of the Saint's Palace, Xue Lang had seen it before, and remembered that the Saint called him Shen Xin.Shen Xin came to pass on the sage's oral oracle and asked Xue Lang to accompany him to go hunting.

Xue Lang touched his face, and asked uncertainly: "Sage Xuanchen accompanied the field hunting?"

Shen Xin said with a smile: "Exactly. Please Xue Shilang get ready, the saint will come as soon as he is in court."

After pronouncing the sage's oral oracle, Shen Xin left.Xue Lang was still a little confused——

He is a man who is worth fighting with five scumbags, and Saint Field Hunting actually chooses him as his companion?This is as nonsensical as Taizong appreciating flowers and calling Yu Chigong together.Could it be... Xue Lang's heart moved, and he called Wanfu to prepare a car and prepare to go home.

The so-called sage opened his mouth, and his servants broke their legs.What can Xue Lang do, go home and prepare for hunting!
During this period of time, Xue Lang took time out to practice archery at home every day, and he was able to hit six out of ten with a fixed target. Of course, he couldn't pull the bow with a distance of less than 50 meters and a range of more than 50 meters.

Before Xue Lang got home, Chang Jian went back to send a message to ask his family to get his hunting suit ready.When they got home, the servants loaded the hunting equipment on the carriage, and Xue Lang went back to the mansion to find the buns and them——

Since coming to Chang'an, the big county mansion has become a paradise for Baozi and the others.Mantou probably knew that this would be the home of his future life, so he took Baozi and them with him when he first arrived, and searched the house carefully. They found mice and hibernating snakes, which surprised Xue Lang. Great compliments to the dogs.

Since the saint is going hunting with him, the hounds are always brought along.Xue Lang's bow skills are clumsy, in order to make a good impression on the saint's father-in-law, it is very necessary to bring buns.However, do you want to bring Red Wolf?

"Mantou, can you control Red Wolf?"

"Wang!"

Mantou let out a cry, and Red Wolf immediately ran over and lay down, revealing his furry belly.Mantou raised a front paw, lightly pressed Red Wolf's belly, and then yelled at Xue Lang.

Xue Lang suddenly said: "Mantou, do you mean to let me touch Red Wolf's belly?"

Of course Mantou couldn't speak, but a pair of round dog eyes just looked at Xue Lang, the meaning was obvious.Xue Lang swallowed quietly, unable to help him not to be nervous, it was a wild wolf, not a dog.However, in the belief that the steamed buns would not harm him, Xue Lang forcibly suppressed his guilty conscience and fear, and stretched out his hand steadily——

When dealing with animals, one cannot show a guilty and fearful expression.At the first sign of fear, even the most docile VIP can turn you upside down.Bullying is not limited to humans, but also to animals.

Xue Lang's hand touched Red Wolf's belly, he didn't move for a while, just touched it so gently, Red Wolf's belly moved, his posture became more stretched, and his obedient posture became more full.

Xue Lang stroked Red Wolf's belly hair slowly and rhythmically. Red Wolf didn't show any resistance. Instead, he shook his ears under Xue Lang's stroking, which seemed very comfortable.

Xue Lang also relaxed slowly, but his face was full of undisguised joy, and he vigorously praised Mantou: "You are beautiful, Mantou!"

Mantou quietly stroked the dog's head for the owner, and slowly swung its tail twice, still full of aloofness.

Xue Lang laughed, asked someone to bring a collar, and put it on Red Wolf tentatively.Red Wolf stood still and didn't move, but when the collar touched his neck, he seemed a little restless. After the mantou let out a "woo", he immediately stopped moving, obediently put on the collar, fastened the chain, and followed the mantou. Later, he planned to follow Xue Lang out of the house to go hunting.

After ordering the guards of honor and guards, the light car Congjian went to the agreed gate of the city to wait for the saint——

Afraid of the cold, Xue Lang took the carriage.The horse let Chang Jian follow behind.After waiting for a while, he saw the guard of honor of the saint approaching from afar, and Xue Lang saw the most familiar flag among the fluttering flags at a glance, and Princess Pingyang was also accompanying him!There are also Qin Wang, Qi Wang, the prince did not come, the saint is not in the palace, the prince wants to stay behind.

Xue Lang's men and horses hid by the side of the road, Xue Lang got out of the carriage, stood respectfully by the side of the road, and let the saint drive through first.When the saint's car passed by Xue Lang, it stopped unexpectedly, and the side curtain was pulled open, revealing the saint's face: "Keep the Qing family waiting for a long time. The Qing family's carriage is unique!"

Xue Lang said: "Back to the sage, I am not good at riding. I can't ride a horse. Instead, I ride more. However, I am not used to the bumpy carriage. I often feel dizzy when I sit down. To relieve the discomfort, I imitate the transportation of goods." The four-wheeled carriage has been redesigned into a small one, which is much more stable than the two-wheeled carriage, and the pain of bumps has been reduced."

The sage looked at Xue Lang's carriage with great interest, and said, "In that case, I'd like to try. Qing family, I will ride with you."

Xue Lang smiled and said, "Thank you Saint for your face, Saint, please get in the car."

Shen Xin helped the saint to get off the carriage, and after helping the saint to get into Xue Lang's carriage, Xue Lang went up, sat down under the saint, and the group of people went out of the city in a mighty manner.

Xue Lang looked at the saint wrapped in fur, and said in a low voice: "Saint, there is hot water here, let me make you a cup of sweet tea to warm up?"

"can."

The saint nodded and looked at Xue Lang curiously.Xue Lang opened the small cabinet on the side, and took out the thermos and tea sets——

Of course it wasn't the set given by Princess Pingyang, but he ordered someone to buy it again.He poured hot water from the thermos and made a cup of sweet tea for the sage: "Sage, please use tea."

The saint took it, staring at Xue Lang's thermos with burning eyes, and reached out to take it.Xue Lang was taken aback: "Saint, be careful, it's full of boiling water, be careful of burns!"

The sage waved his hand and took a look at the thermos: "This thing is quite exquisite! The material..."

He knocked on the shell of the thermos and asked, "An iron thing?"

Xue Lang said: "Back to the saint, this thing is called a thermos pot. It has two layers, the inside and the outside. There is a vacuum in the middle of the two layers. Within two days, the hot water in the pot can keep warm. Both the inside and the outside are made of steel, and the lid is a A material called plastic."

The saint was amazed: "It can keep warm? It's so exquisite! But, what is a vacuum?"

Xue Lang scratched his head, feeling a little hard to explain for a while, thought for a while, and said: "Sage, to understand what a vacuum is, you must first understand the concept of qi. People must have air to survive, and air cannot be touched. See I can't see it, but I can feel it. For example, air is inhaled by inhalation. Only with air can people survive. The so-called vacuum is to take out the air in a space to form a vacuum space to achieve heat preservation. the goal of."

After finishing speaking, he smiled embarrassedly and said: "Since I am not a professional student of physics, I am not good at learning art. If there is something unclear, please ask the sage to take care of it."

The sage nodded and said: "I have heard Pingyang talk about your studies in the foreign country you came to. There is still something to do today. After the matter is over, the Qing family will enter the palace and explain it to me in detail."

Xue Lang naturally agreed: "Here. The sage sends someone to send ministers when he is free."
