Great Tang Dynasty

Chapter 1192
The crowd stayed one night at the Royal Ranch.

Early the next morning, the polo match began.

The playing field was prepared early in the morning. It was very big, similar to the football field of later generations, but the whole playing field was divided into two parts.

In other words, this venue can play two games at the same time.

There are a lot of powerful and powerful teams, and it would take a lot of time, even a few days, to play one game at a time.

As the Son of Heaven, Li Shimin has a lot to do every day. Even if he likes polo very much, it is impossible for him to waste too much time on it.

Therefore, playing two games at once can save a lot of time.

There are many auditoriums around the arena. Different officials sit in different auditoriums. Li Shimin and some concubines and princes sit in the highest position, and they can see the most clearly.

Qin Tian, ​​Cheng Yaojin and the others were in the auditorium next to Li Shimin, and their vision was pretty good.

More than two dozen teams draw lots to determine the order of play and their opponents.

After such a decision, the polo game officially began.

Cheng Yaojin's team is not very lucky, the first game will be played, and his opponent is Zhang Shigui's team, Zhang Shigui's team is a very good team, played polo last year, and even defeated Cheng Yaojin King's team.

Now the two teams meet again.

Zhang Shigui glanced at Cheng Yaojin disdainfully, and said: "Grand Lu is really thick-skinned, he is always at the bottom of the list every year, and this year he even dared to show his presence, isn't he afraid of embarrassing himself again?"

As someone who once defeated Cheng Yaojin's team, Zhang Shigui felt that he had the right to talk to Cheng Yaojin like this.

However, right after Zhang Shigui finished saying this, Cheng Yaojin immediately laughed: "It's not certain who will be ashamed this year."

"Oh, let's see then."

The two confronted each other, and then the competition between the two teams began.

Cheng Yaojin's team had been trained by Qin Tian, ​​but it was the first time they used the strategy taught by Qin Tian, ​​so they seemed a little nervous.

At the beginning, their cooperation was not particularly proficient, so that Zhang Shigui's team grabbed the ball several times and almost scored.

Seeing the situation on the court, Zhang Shigui smiled slightly: "Lu Guogong's team hasn't made much progress either."

Cheng Yaojin frowned, just kept staring at the field, he still had great confidence in Qin Tian, ​​how could the team coached by Qin Tian not improve at all.

He believes that his team will be able to counterattack.

The competition was still going on. In the first half, the two sides fought back and forth like this. No team scored a goal, but in comparison, Cheng Yaojin's team was in danger several times.

However, in the second half, Cheng Yaojin's team gradually found the feeling. They no longer blindly chased the polo on the court, but played cooperative games according to Qin Tian's words.

In this way, when the game was about to end, Cheng Yaojin's team finally scored a goal.

Although it is only one ball, this one ball is enough to decide the outcome.

When the ball was scored, Cheng Yaojin jumped up excitedly.

"A good shot, really a good shot, scored, scored..."

Cheng Yaojin shouted excitedly, but the others were stunned for a moment, and Zhang Shigui's expression was even more ugly.

"How... how could this happen, it's impossible, it's absolutely impossible, Cheng Yaojin's team isn't that good, absolutely not..."

Zhang Shigui was shocked in his heart, and the others were also a little surprised.

"I really didn't expect Cheng Yaojin's team to get off to a good start and score just like that."

"I see, it might be shit luck. After a game, we only scored one. Do you think it's shit luck?"

"I think it's really shit luck..."

Everyone was shocked, but they all regarded this goal as luck, and didn't think how good Cheng Yaojin's team was.

After the first game, the next is the second game.

The second match was between Prince Li Chengqian's team and Gao Shilian's team.

This lottery made Gao Shilian very embarrassed. Facing the prince Li Chengqian's personal appearance, his people must have won, and offended the prince Li Chengqian. Although it is not too worrying, it will make people feel uneasy and uncertain.

But if he loses in match-fixing, he will feel aggrieved and upset.

He didn't like this competition very much, but these were drawn randomly, and he had no choice but to let his own people play by ear.

The second game started soon, and Li Chengqian's physical fitness has been greatly improved, so playing on horseback is no problem for him at all.

After the two sides fought, he led his men to run non-stop on the field. The polo kept tumbling and spinning, and Li Chengqian scored one in a short while.

Seeing this scene, Gao Shilian frowned slightly. He knew that his men did not hold back just now. After all, it was the first half, so he didn't need to think about the result.

And they didn't hold back, Li Chengqian actually beat them, so the strength of Li Chengqian's team can be imagined, right?

Gao Shilian showed a slight smile. At first he thought of pretending to lose to make people feel aggrieved, but now he finds that they are not opponents at all, so if they lose, they will lose. At least they feel better.

The game was going on like this, and Li Shimin was relieved to see that Prince Li Chengqian was very good at playing polo. After all, playing polo is just a recreational activity, but it is more a test of horsemanship.

But in an era like theirs, if you are very skilled immediately, you deserve to be respected and praised.

Li Chengqian became more courageous as he fought.

But at this moment, the horse that Li Chengqian was sitting on suddenly screamed, and then fell to the ground, foaming at the mouth, and Li Chengqian flew out from the horse.

boom……

With a sound, Li Chengqian fell to the ground and passed out immediately.

This scene happened so quickly that everyone didn't react at all. Seeing Li Chengqian passed out, Li Shimin became nervous and ran down from the auditorium. Seeing this, Qin Tian and others did not dare to stand by and quickly followed go.

The game is suspended.

"Bring the prince back to the palace, and quickly call the imperial doctor to come for diagnosis and treatment."

Li Shimin quickly ordered, and soon someone carried the crown prince into the palace, but Qin Tian's eyebrows frowned slightly after glancing at the horse.

"My lord, the prince's horse may be poisoned, we need to send someone to investigate."

The crown prince's horse was foaming at the mouth and convulsing. It was obviously not exhausted. Li Shimin also knew horses very well. After seeing Li Chengqian's horse, he also agreed with Qin Tian's point of view.

After nodding, he continued to order: "Investigate, who has touched the prince's horse."
