I am a nobleman in England

Chapter 56 The so-called aristocratic life

How to pretend to live an upper class life?

Among the various options of "How to enter the upper class" and "What are the hobbies of the upper class", horse riding has always been the "key focus".

People with money are always similar, and people without money have their own ways of being poor.The richest "upper class" in the world, regardless of whether they are princes, nobles, billionaires or superstars, their daughters have the same hobby, that is, horse riding!

Speaking of British horse riding, it goes back to ancient Europe.

At that time, Europe was a bloody storm, where various martial arts factions fought endlessly.At that time, Great Britain was even more wild.

Later, the Celtics, Romans, Pirates, and other martial arts factions set foot on this barren land one after another, planning to open up a logistics base where they can cultivate and cultivate.In the end, the Romans won the British Isles by virtue of their strong cultural soft power.

However, at that time, the land on this island was barren, and the rain was constant. All kinds of melons and fruits did not grow well when planted. It was really not a good place for self-cultivation.In this historical grand plan, the Romans quickly abandoned Britain.

As soon as the martial arts leader left, the various factions of the military strategists on the island immediately fell into a long-term melee, and the dying horse howling blew like a gust of wind throughout the British island.

It was not until the 11th century that William, a descendant of the pirate faction, from France, and a group of brave and combative followers broke into the British Isles from across the sea and finally conquered this land and proclaimed himself king.

From then on, William the Conqueror basically ended the history of the martial arts melee on the British Isles, and began the true kingship of England.That's right, it was this little-known little I who conquered William of Britain and became the first king in the history of British royal power.

Although a descendant of pirates, William grew up in France and was influenced by a strong Norman culture.So he called the Kingdom of England he established as the Norman Dynasty.Not only that, he also brought French cavalry and established a cavalry system.Slowly, the cavalry became a special social class.They serve the king, obtain fiefdoms, and earn more salaries than ordinary people.However, in the noble order, the knight can only be regarded as a very low class.

Although small-scale wars occurred in Britain under the royal power from time to time, it was much more harmonious than the classic martial arts battles in ancient times.The horse is no longer a necessity of war, but has developed into an entertainment-style transportation tool, a hunting vehicle for princes and nobles.With the reduction of warfare, there were fewer cavalry, and horsemanship became a symbol of the "power and authority" of the great nobility and the royal family.

Several "horse" sports developed by the British aristocracy include horse-riding hunting, polo, costume equestrian, sports horse racing and so on.However, very few of them have been successfully developed, and sport horse racing is the most popular among British people.

Of course, this is largely due to the respect of the royal family.The Jockey Club's competition week in June continues to this day, and it has become an important event that the UK must participate in if you want to become a circle of friends.

Whether it is a high-level "sweat-blooded BMW", various equipment or equestrian training courses are indeed expensive. This sport has always been considered "only for a few people". Of course, it is not only because of burning money, except who has pure blood. Horse racing, in addition to wealth and status, in various media propaganda, the ability to ride horses or a hobby of horse riding has even become a "sign of entering the upper class".

In fact, whether it is horse riding, golf, wine drinking, art collection, these activities that have been labeled as "aristocratic sports", to a certain extent, do require a certain amount of money investment and even long-term training.Some people retreated because of this, and many people began to pursue it just because of such a "premium" label.

But in Arthur's view, the most important thing is whether we really like this after removing the label.If you really like it, there are always many ways.

For example, riding horses, even without a full set of Gucci equipment, every true horse riding enthusiast can get their own happiness in a normal horse farm.

In the evening, feel the tranquility of the setting sun. Arthur and Emilia rode horses side by side in the vast estate. For horse riding, Emilia really likes horse riding. You can not only ride horses to see the scenery, but also enjoy nature, sunshine and freshness. Air can return to nature, and more importantly, it can also lose weight and shape.

"...Do you know that the magic of riding horses is that they can make the areas where the meat grows stronger, and make the areas where the meat needs to be reduced become thinner."

Hearing Emilia's words, holding the reins in his hand, Arthur, who was riding a horse leisurely, deliberately fell back to his upper body, leaned his head and looked at her Buttocks, slammed his mouth and exclaimed: "Tsk tsk, sure enough Yes, no wonder it will make me fall in love..."

Emilia is already a little resistant to Arthur's molesting. There is no other way. Faced with an idiot who will tease her with mang words anytime and anywhere, she can only work hard to apply it as soon as possible. After a glance, he couldn't help but laughed helplessly: "You count, you are simply a mang."

"Haha, thank you for the compliment. For you, I am willing to be a mang." Arthur and Emilia looked at each other with a look, and said with a bit of reluctance: "My dear, I am a little bit reluctant to see you in London tomorrow. ."

As a woman who was completely immersed in love for the first time, Emilia, especially after eating SUI, her enthusiasm for more than two decades was released. The passionate emotions radiated is amazing. Listening to Arthur's alternative In Qing words, Emilia's beautiful eyes are full of tenderness and honey.
