I am a nobleman in England

Chapter 322: What is playing is the scene and style

When Arthur and Eddie returned to the Dostehoe Castle Hotel, they found that Edmund hadn’t stayed honestly in the hotel. It was already late at night. If there was no hunting invitation for the next day, Arthur didn’t want to bother himself to go out and have fun. , Edmund Carnival.

However, for the hunting activities of the next day, he can only call to summon him back.

It took a long time for the call to be connected. Listening to the blasting music and the noisy noise on the other end of the phone, Arthur couldn't help feeling that his guess was right. This kid really went to a carnival. Of course, more of it was gloating and interrupting. Edmund’s carnival.

Under Arthur's very tough attitude and tone, Edmund was finally depressed, and returned to the hotel drunk, rested early to replenish his energy for the hunting activities the next day.

Before coming to the old lady's Christmas dinner, the butler Paul insisted on making Arthur and the trio bring them in their suitcases. In the eyes of the trio, there was no necessary hunting outfit, and it was the formal hunting outfit of the nobleman.

Now it seems that the saying has been fulfilled, the old saying that a family is as old as a treasure.

You should know that the noble hunting outfits required to participate in royal hunts are different from ordinary hunting outfits, but the British red hunting outfits unified by royal and nobles.

If you don't bring it, although ordinary hunting outfits are fine, in a unified hunting outfit, it will not only look abrupt, but also make other family members laugh secretly, and there is no'tutor'...

At about five o'clock in the morning the next morning, Arthur had gotten up, washed, put on a British red hunting suit, white breeches, black riding boots, and a black felt hat with a brim, and looked in front of the coat mirror.

"Sure enough, handsome, full of extravagance!" Arthur boasted narcissistically.

"Boom boom——"

At this moment, the door of the hotel was knocked, and Arthur walked out of the bedroom and watched Eddie and Edmond, who were also in red safari suits, walk in. Arthur smiled and said to Eddie: "You really Are you going?"

"Of course!" Eddie's hair was tied into a high ponytail, wearing a black felt hat, even more heroic.

"Fox hunting horses are not as easy to control as our family horses. Be careful!" Arthur warned again, worrying.

"Cut, take care of yourself, my riding skills are better than you!" Eddie spit out disdainfully.

Arthur shrugged and did not continue to dwell on this topic. "Since we are all ready, let's go. I believe everyone else should start at this time and gather at the manor under Dian."

Eddie and Edmond nodded, followed Arthur out of the suite, and walked into the elevator surrounded by the three of Bell.

Sandringham Manor covers an area of ​​8,000 hectares. In the manor, the appearance of a distinctive mansion building is very eye-catching. The red bricks are dotted with delicate limestone decorations. Compared with other royal palaces, it is less A bit magnificent, but it doubles the relaxed and happy atmosphere.It is indeed perfect as a venue for celebrating Christmas.

After Arthur and his party went through strict security checks, the car drove into the manor, and just stopped in the square of the castle. An attendant came forward to receive him, and directly led the three Arthur brothers and sisters to a big house on one side.

Through inquiries, Arthur learned that Dian brought his two sons, and the other five early nobles headed by two dukes were choosing shotguns.

After the trio of Arthurs met in the dian group, they first greeted everyone respectfully. Although there were many rumors, he was still very enthusiastic to the trio of Arthurs. He was completely elder, and even asked very caringly. A few words from Eddie and Edmond.

After learning that Edmund had enlisted in the army, I was even more satisfied and ridiculed with the two dukes around him. They should take care of Yunyun. After all, Edmond, who was born in the earl family, was just a guan, and it was indeed a bit shabby. The status of the Bolling family.

Of course, this is also because the current Boleyn family has re-entered Royal's sight because of Arthur's relationship. Otherwise, it is said to be the second son of Edmund who cannot inherit the title, even if it is Arthur. Count, if it were the same as before, no one would care if he died.

So, if you want to get the respect of others, you must first be strong enough!

After choosing the shotgun, go to the stable and choose the fox hunting horse. Fox hunting is not just a game of fox hunting. The horse and the rider on the horse must cooperate with each other, pay close attention to its whereabouts, and choose the nearest route to follow.

There are no special requirements for the breed of fox hunting horses, but fox hunting horses must be trained. Horses must be cool-headed, brave and endurance. Because the terrain of the jungle is more complicated, there are often natural obstacles such as bushes and running water. The horse must successfully overcome these obstacles. It is possible to hunt down the prey.

More importantly, the rider must be able to control the fox hunting horse. If the rider hesitates a little, the horse will refuse to jump, and the prey may escape between the hesitation of man and horse.

At 6:30, all the nobles who were invited to participate in this hunting event were all present, together with the three brothers and sisters of Arthur, there were a full number of twenty people. Except for DIAN Xia and the two dukes who were slightly older, most of them All of them are in their forties, only the three brothers and sisters of Arthur and the two are very young.

I have to say that dian really loves hunting.According to him, every week in winter, he would pick up a shotgun and go hunting in the wild.

Hunting has a long history in the UK. It was once an important stage for the nobles to show their special quan. It was also a game loved by royals and nobles. As a kind of high society entertainment, it has endured for hundreds of years.

At the beginning of the hunt, it was mainly royal that led the guests to hunt in the royal forest. The prey was mainly deer and wild boar.Later, the farmers discovered that foxes were serious to the farmland, and some farmers began to hunt foxes with hunting dogs.

At the same time, the number of people's favorite hunting target deer is gradually decreasing, and the chasing fun brought by hunting foxes makes them ideal prey.

People think that hunting can keep people away from the hypocrisy and fraud of the city, get in close contact with nature, and cultivate noble feelings.Therefore, hunting is highly respected, and a large number of fox hunting horses and fox hunting dogs are domesticated.

Fox hunting is regarded as an ancient British tradition, forming a kind of gentleman culture that is passed down hereditary.Today the greatest hobbies of English gentlemen are still hunting, shooting and fishing.

It is said that modern golf is the game of nouveau riche, and even the nouveau riche cannot afford to play the game of fox hunting, precious horses, pure-blood hounds, hunting grounds in their own territory, and complicated etiquette and game rules. This hardware will discourage even the average billionaire.

At the time when the morning sun was rising, the orange-red sunlight slightly dispelled the cold fog between the wilderness and the woods. From far away, noisy dog ​​barking and running sound can be heard. 40 to 50 pairs of foxhounds are under the command of the hunters' shouts and horns. Rush to the woods.

A group of wearing red hunting outfits and black felt hats stepped on tall horses, surrounded by groups of hounds, riding horses and whips from the countryside in the winter fog

Every year, the day after Christmas is Boxing Day for royal hunting in the UK. Whether it is Arthur or everyone else, they wear "British Red" hunting suits, full of energy and excited about the upcoming hunting activities.

Although the royal and nobles had only 20 people in total, the attendants and bodyguards had more than 50 people, and the hunters who drove the foxhounds in front, the number of this team was as many as hundreds.

Coupled with the number of foxhounds and steeds, the entire hunting team is majestic and magnificent!

And this is one of the reasons why royals and the nobles are keen on hunting this game, what they play is the scene and style!

As for fox hunting, the greatest pleasure lies in the process of hunting, and most of the hunted prey are red foxes.Red foxes usually come out in the evening and in the morning. Once they find the foxhound, they become extremely alert and start their own escape journey.

The alert red fox is good at hiding its tracks, but its smell is difficult to hide.Foxhounds are specially trained to track by smell and can follow the smell of red foxes.Foxhounds do not walk very fast, and sometimes lose their prey. The lucky red fox can continue to enjoy a free life.

But there are not many lucky red foxes. Foxhounds can find the red fox again most of the time and continue to chase.The red fox is cunning and uncertain, and the foxhound is well-trained, followed closely to lock the target for the master.

"Hehe, the prey has been driven out, let's go--"

"what!"

With a whistle from the dian, driving the fox-hunting horse and starting to run, everyone behind him also started to run with the horse, followed by the fox-hounds who began to chase the red fox that fled in a hurry!
