Section 20 Revenge
Asu Ruffat went to the palace on the third day. This time there were not so many complicated things. After the chief Scadra asked him to put on the full set of equipment, he signaled him to go in alone.
As Essin said, the man on duty today was still the giant Falyssis. But maybe he was a little tired because he was on duty for one day, so he was very happy to see Ash Rufate, or for some other reason. In short, he actually took the initiative to greet Ash Rufate from a distance. If his hostility was expressed on his face last time, at least this time his hostility had been hidden in his heart.
"The rest is left to you." This was the first time Falyss talked to him. His voice sounded muffled, and he didn't know where it was. "The queen is going to learn horse riding first, and then she may attend the imperial meeting. You have to go in with her." His last sentence was obviously to remind Ash Rufate.
"Your Majesty," after explaining to Ashu Rufate, Falyss turned to the door. "Ahu Rufate has arrived, so I will take my leave first."
"Okay," the voice of the female teacher came from inside. If this old-fashioned and conservative woman knew that the little queen was almost kidnapped in the middle of the night, she didn't know what expression she would have shown. Ashu Rufate thought with interest. Of course, the reason why he had free time to think about it was entirely because the work of standing guard was too boring.
However, when he thought so, the door had been opened. The old-fashioned and conservative woman was wearing a solemn dress - the dress was of exquisite texture and could be worn directly to attend the formal funeral - and walked out.
The little girl next to her, perhaps Queen Luvia Angel and Markremiz, also wore a very neat riding outfit. It can be seen that her outfit was made completely according to Jana's requirements, but it was completely different to wear it on this little queen. "People need clothes" is an old saying, "Wearing a dragon robe doesn't look like a prince" is also an old saying. At this moment, it just interprets the latter sentence.
No matter how serious the clothes you wear, the little girl’s cute face is the best neutralizer, which can make the originally serious things not serious.
Ashu Rufate didn't understand what this meant for a moment. But he understood immediately. Jana? Jana made a gesture for him to follow, so he followed them and walked along the garden to the other side, and soon arrived at a large open space.
A man dressed in a groom is already on standby, holding a rare horse in his hand.
This horse should be a mountain horse - according to general rules, horses in mountain areas are always smaller than those in the wilderness and forests. This horse is even shorter in the middle of a mountain horse, with a big head and a short neck and a fat body. It is more like a short donkey than a horse.
The horse is fully equipped, and it is obviously for people to ride. The problem is that the gnome among this horse is obviously not suitable for adults to ride, so the answer is clear at a glance, this is for the queen to ride.
From a safety perspective, this is correct. To be on the safe side, a minor girl should be suitable for riding such a horse. But... as a queen, is it really suitable for riding such a horse? In addition, what can I train to ride such a horse?
Jana nodded to the groom. The latter immediately bowed deeply and then stepped aside.
Wait, what was Falyss just now saying? Go to the imperial meeting?
"Help me get on the horse." The little girl walked to Ash Rufat and said to him. Although her voice was very tender, she now looked a little majestic. From an objective perspective, this horse is indeed a little short for adults, but for the little girl, it is still a bit difficult to fly on the horse, especially in the flashy riding outfit. This requirement is not outrageous.
Ashu Rufate came to the horse. This gnome horse looked like a very good horse because it stood up properly, neither kicked nor bitten. I really don’t know what kind of horsemanship can be trained by riding this kind of horse.
He stretched out his hand to support the little girl. But the latter ignored his stretched out hand at all, but pointed to the ground in a deliberately arrogant manner.
Ash Rufate didn't know what the other party meant for a while.
"Kneel down and be my horse-mounted stone." The little girl said. To be honest, the horse-mounted stone is right next to you, less than ten steps away.
If she planned to use this requirement to make Ashu Rufate feel uncomfortable, it could be said that it was completely failed. Ashu Rufate just smiled slightly, immediately knelt down on one knee, bent down, and faced Queen Markremiz. The little girl stepped on his shoulder - a little higher, but was still a little done - and then stretched her legs into the stirrups.
In fact, it wouldn't be too outrageous to say that the Queen asked the guards to use as horse stones. Originally, personal guards were a typical "multi-purpose" position. The problem was that she kept her posture of stepping on Ash Rufate's shoulder and stepping on the stirrups, and she didn't move for a long time.
"If you don't admit it, am I not the queen?" Ashu Rufat clearly heard the little girl on her head whispering softly in a tone of gritting teeth.
"Oh, that's just a silence for the next moment." Ashu Rufat replied with a smile. Sure enough, this little girl was wronged before, and now she wants to take revenge. But this really looks like a way of revenge that the little girl thought of in her mind.
"Hmph!" The little girl let out a hum and left Ash Rufate's shoulder. When Ash Rufate raised her head, he saw that the little girl was already riding steadily on the horse's back. Of course, she should also ride steadily, because this dwarf horse was not so tame, but rather slow to react - it was completely motionless during the whole process and let people make trouble.
The little girl bit her lip angrily. She now felt that her revenge seemed completely meaningless, as if she was punched out but fell into the air without any force. Although this guy named Ash Rufate had scolded her with a fierce look before, saying "If others don't admit you will be just a little girl", she is now calm about her provocation, looking like she doesn't care about boiling water. This makes her carefully conceived plan completely useless.
This guy seemed a little talented, but he had no awe of her at all. According to the book, when facing such a person, he had to find a way to slouch his majesty before he could gain his true allegiance. So she carefully conceived this plan. However, unexpectedly, Ashu Rufate was like a ball of unforced cotton, unable to find a focus for attack.
The little girl started running on a small stroll. Although it was just a dwarf horse, it ran quite neatly after being kicked by the Spurs. However, the horse was very tame and stable, and the so-called "ride" was not difficult at all. So Ashu Rufate could see that although the little girl could ride a horse on the surface (or her own feelings) if there was an emergency, if she needed to ride a real war horse on the back of a real war horse, or if she needed to ride on the back for a long time, she would probably get out of the trap. The horse training exercised by riding this dwarf horse was obviously not practical.
Within a short while he was watching, the little girl had already rode a horse around the field for two laps. And just like that, her equestrian exercise was just riding a dwarf horse, circling the field at a speed of small steps. She didn't even have the content to let the horse skip a hurdle. To be honest, he didn't understand the meaning of letting the little girl learn this kind of equestrian. Of course, there are still things to say, that is, it can make her more familiar with the feeling on the horse's back and create favorable conditions for real learning to ride horses in the future.
"Ms. Jana." Ashu Rufat walked into the old-fashioned and serious female teacher. "Is this just learning on horseback?" he asked softly.
"Of course. Isn't this riding a horse?" Jana looked at Ash Rufate with her eyes looking at the monster.
"Riding this kind of horse?" Ashu Rufate thought. "Madam, since you are Your Majesty's tutor... Could it be that you arranged this course?"
"Of course." Jiana raised her eyebrows, but she was still polite. "I found this horse."
"Ask a rude question, can you ride a horse?"
"No." Jana replied firmly. "If it weren't for His Majesty's identity, there would be no need to arrange such a course at all."
No wonder Ashrufate said in his stomach. But to be honest, the Queen's education issue had nothing to do with him, his personal bodyguard, so he just stood aside and continued to watch.
The little girl was still riding a horse and running around in circles. The horse was actually a very smart animal, and this gnome horse was no exception. In fact, it did not need to be controlled at all and would naturally run around a fixed circle. So Ashu Rufate saw that the reins on the little girl's hand were always loose because she didn't need to control the horse at all. Rather than saying that she was riding a horse, she was just sitting on the back and was carried away by the horse.
Ashu Rufate sighed, and he turned his head to find something else that would attract him. At this moment, he saw the reflection of metal armor appearing in the distance.
A team of people appeared at the end of the garden. As they approached, they could identify that this was a whole group of soldiers, with a number of as many as twelve. These soldiers were also wearing shiny metal armor, but the style was not so gorgeous. In addition, they all held a uniform halberd in their hands. Ashrufate immediately recognized them as the guards in the palace, commonly known as the "Imperial Guards". This was a guard unit responsible for defending the palace, with a total of 300 people. Ashrufate had seen them before, because the members of this unit were standing guard at the gate of the palace.
"What's wrong?" The female teacher took the initiative to greet her.
"Madam," said the leading officer politely. "The General asked Her Majesty the Queen to go to the conference room. The meeting is about to begin."
"Wait, isn't it time yet?"
"Oh, General said that today's topics are more than planned, so the meeting should be started in advance. The Duke also agreed."
Faced with such a reason, Jana could not object. The next time the little girl ran over by her horse, she called out to the other party. It was at this moment that the little girl actually made a basic move of riding and strangled the horse. It proved that she had learned a little riding skills in addition to being carried around by a dwarf horse. Of course, in Ash Rufate's view, this was mainly because the horse was not considered running at all, but was just walking in small steps, and could stop by pulling the reins a little.
"Your Majesty, the imperial meeting is about to begin, you must go first."
"Okay, Ashu Rufate, help me down." The little girl replied. She was about to let Ashu Rufate kneel down again as a horse stone, but unexpectedly Ashu Rufate stepped up quickly, held her body with both hands, and easily carried her off the dwarf horse. She realized that she had reacted until she stepped on the ground.
