Chapter 11 Jade Belt Test: Polo Field Distress

In the Hanguang Palace of Daming Palace, a fierce polo match has already begun.Prince Li Xian and Prime Minister Li Dan each led nine people, and they were galloping to hit the ball.Princess Taiping sat on the viewing platform, and Jinhua and Shiqian put on Hu clothes and stood with the seamstresses to watch the match.

Jinhua really didn't understand why Princess Taiping asked her to come here with a group of seamstresses, maybe she still expected them to play?

Just as he was thinking about it, there was a burst of cheers and cheers on the field. Taking advantage of no one paying attention to them, Gao Shiqian stepped forward to tease Jinhua, pulled her back to a corner, and asked, "The princess asked you something just now?" What, you're not talking nonsense, are you?"

"Am I so stupid in your eyes?" Jin Hua gave him a blank look, "I think the princess seems to have mistaken her, and she speaks strangely."

"What's wrong?"

Jinhua told the story of her and the princess in the flower pavilion, Gao Shiqian thought for a moment after hearing this, nodded and said: "It's not what I expected."

"You know what's going on?"

"According to my guess, it should be close to ten."

"Don't be tricky, just say it!"

Gao Shiqian looked at her with a smug look on his face: "If I guess correctly, you are not allowed to make any more mocking remarks in the future."

"I'll try my best," Jin Hua pouted, "Say it quickly."

"Princess Taiping regards you and me as members of Xue Shao's residence."

"What?" Jinhua's jaw almost dropped in shock.

"She called the seamstresses into the mansion late at night to compete in their skills, and at this time she asked us to come here dressed as polo players, just for Xue Shao."

"You mean she did all this to chase after Xue Shao?"

Gao Shiqian nodded and sighed: "I really admire the women of the Tang Dynasty, who dare to show their faces to pursue the person they like. This is unimaginable in my Ming Dynasty."

Jinhua snorted coldly: "That's right, you Daming pay attention to 'preserving the principles of nature and destroying human desires'."

"Women should be more reserved."

"Another straight man with cancer..."

"What did you say?" Although Gao Shiqian couldn't understand, but seeing her expression must be mocking himself again, he couldn't help saying, "Since that's the case, don't ask me about anything in the future."

"Okay, okay, I won't talk anymore," Jinhua said hastily, "What should we do next?"

Gao Shiqian was always paying attention to the movement on the polo field, and saw that the cavalry team of the prince and Xiangwang had already left, replaced by two new teams, and the flags on the field changed to big banners with the characters "Xue" and "Wu". "Here, the Xue family is here."

Jin Hua looked at the field, and the athletes of the two families had already jumped onto the field on horseback.Xue Xu, the second son of the Xue family, and Wu Chengsi, the son of the Wu family, both lead nine polo players. Each of them holds the reins in their left hand and holds a crescent-shaped ball stick in their right.

Princess Taiping on the viewing platform watched the game intently, looking forward to the moment when the figure of her sweetheart appeared.After all, this watch has been too long...

At the age of 14, the Tubo envoy came to make a marriage proposal. Empress Wu was reluctant to marry her far away from Tubo, so she refused the marriage proposal on the grounds that she would send her to become a monk and practice. Since then, she has lived in Taiping Temple, and it has been almost three years now.In the past three years, except for New Years, festivals, and banquets held in the palace, she was able to go out for sightseeing and get together with family and friends, and spent the rest of the time in meditation.Empress Wu seemed to really want her to practice hard, and arranged for the female crown in the temple to give her lectures on the scriptures. She still had a lot of homework to do in practice, meditation, and copying scriptures, which really made her feel bored and bored.These can still be tolerated, but now I have passed the age of Jiji, and it is time to talk about marriage, but Gaozong Li Zhi and Empress Wu have been hesitant about her marriage, with a vague attitude, as if they have forgotten her in the audience Average.

As a child, you can't plan your marriage by yourself, let alone she is the princess of a country, and she can't act freely.But she is Princess Taiping, the daughter of Empress Wu Zetian, and she is not one of those ordinary girls who are ignorant, weak and deceitful. No matter what, she must marry the man she wants according to her wish!

On the Shangsi Festival in March of the first year of the year, she met her cousin Xue Shao, who had just entered Beijing from Fangzhou, and was named a regular servant of Sanqi at the Qujiang banquet. The song "Three Lanes of Plum Blossoms" he played on the shakuhachi at the banquet was ethereal and beautiful. Surprised everyone, better than countless flamboyant playboys in Chang'an City.The moment she saw him, she was deeply attracted by his chic, elegant and elegant demeanor, and decided that he was the one she would entrust to her for life.After the banquet, the two sat by the Qujiang Pool and chatted for a while, and agreed to meet again in the Taiping Temple in the future to discuss the Tao together.Unexpectedly, after that night, Empress Wu sent a few more guards to Taiping Temple, in the name of protecting her safety, but actually restricting her every move.What is even more worrisome is that Xue Shao has never heard from him and never attended the appointment.

Hibiscus is young and good-natured, with the wind and the flowing water every day.Sitting in a sad city, she was thinking of countermeasures for her future in the torment day and night. How should she convey her desire to marry to her parents, and how can she marry the person she dreams of day and night?

The fierce drumming sounded on the field, which brought her back to her mind.I saw that the Xue family played three golfers in a row, and even the second son of the Xue family died due to lack of energy. Now there are only six people struggling to support them.At this moment, a heroic figure leaped up on a steed, attracting loud applause from the crowd.Princess Taiping's eyes lit up, her heart beat wildly, and it was the person she had been thinking about day and night on the stage!

"Hurry up!" She ordered Dansha, "Order the two male seamstresses to put on Xue's ball uniforms and go to the field to help out!"

"What?" Dansha thought he heard it wrong, "How can a seamstress..."

Princess Taiping raised her willow eyebrows, and her tone was not to be opposed: "I will do as I say!"

Dansha still wanted to talk, but Tubai winked at her, and they both agreed to leave.After walking a few steps, Princess Taiping said: "Wait, tell them, they must see clearly!"

"Yes," the two looked at each other in confusion, and Dansha muttered, "What do you see clearly?"

Tu Bai said: "Who knew, our princess still likes to play charades now."

"It's ridiculous. Wouldn't it be a disservice to ask the seamstress to play polo?"

"Presumably she has her own reasons, you and I will follow orders."

"That's all there is to it."

Shi Qian was whispering with Jin Hua, when Dan Sha stepped forward and interrupted: "Princess has a life, put on the Xue family ball outfit, and go to the field to help out!"

"Ask you to play?" Jinhua looked at him worriedly.

"Don't worry, I'll come as I go."

"Also, the princess told you two to 'be sure to see clearly'." Tu Bai confessed to Gao Shiqian and Zhao Sewingong.

Zhao seamstress looked puzzled, and didn't dare to ask in detail.Gao Shiqian nodded, and followed the cinnabar with a knowing attitude.

Not long after, the two changed their clothes and rode their horses onto the field.Seeing the two men coming up, Xue Shao was startled, and knowing that Princess Taiping sent him a helping hand, he nodded and smiled, and ordered the two of them to follow him and help him pass the ball.Seamstress Zhao probably didn't know how to play ball at all, so he swung the ball around on the horse and almost tripped Xue Shao's white horse twice.Xue Shao was not annoyed, nor did he repel him, he still let him hold the ball stick by his side to block the Wu family's side attack.On the other hand, Gao Shiqian didn't focus on playing, but just followed Xue Shao, passing the ball casually while observing carefully.

Princess Taiping watched from a distance, anxious in her heart, but suddenly remembered that she had forgotten to explain clearly to the seamstresses in a hurry, and couldn't help feeling annoyed and restless.

On the field, Wu Chengsi saw that there were frequent omissions around Xue Shao, so he personally led two players to attack and grab the ball.If Xue Shao was alone, he would still be able to respond flexibly, but at this moment there was a seamstress Zhao running around like a headless chicken, which completely disrupted his position, and he was gradually surrounded by the Wu family, unable to do his best.

Seeing that Xue Shao was getting tired, Wu Chengsi winked at the two golfers beside him. The two rode forward, pretending to grab the ball with a ball stick, and at the same time secretly using their hands and feet under Xue Shao's horse's hooves, trying to get him to slack off. The horse jumped in fright and threw him off the horse.They had used this method to deal with three players from the Xue family before, and even the second son of Xue was so exhausted that he left the game.

At this time the ball rolled past Xue Shao's horse, Wu Chengsi ordered the players to do tricks secretly, the ball swept across Xue Shao's stock, the horse was frightened, hissed long and leaped into the air.Xue Shao was about to hit the ball, but was thrown violently by the out-of-control horse. He left the saddle and fell backwards.

The seamstress Zhao beside him was shocked, and wanted to reach out to support him, but he accidentally tore a big hole in his crotchless (kuà) shirt with a "stab", Xue Shao was pulled by him like this , his body became even more unstable, and he was about to fall off the horse!

Seeing such a thrilling scene, Princess Taiping on the viewing platform in the distance screamed and stood up.
