Do you know: I am Xu Jiazi

Chapter 481 Xu Wulang, you are really good at pretending! [Thank you! Goodbye! I owe you 41k more]

"what!"

"drive!"

The angry shouts of horse drivers could be heard constantly on the polo field.

“Thump, thump, thump~”

The thundering sound of horse hooves passed by!

In the Chai family's tent,
Gu Tingyi sat next to Chai Zhengzheng, took a look at the situation, and said, "Zhengzheng, something strange happened today! Just now when I was in my tent, several housekeepers came over to talk and say hello!"

Chai Zhengzheng was about to speak.
Zhang Jia Wu Niang stood at the door and waved, "You two stop chatting and come over here to take a look. The polo is pretty good today!"

After saying that, Wu Niang looked at the situation on the field, waved her hands and said urgently: "Han family, don't be scared! Push him! Push him hard!"

Looking at Wu Niang's appearance, Chai Zhengzheng and Gu Tingyi looked at each other and sat down outside.

When the two of them looked out,
"Xilulu~~"

A horse neighed!

After a "thump!"

A horse on the field turned sharply during a fight and was pushed to the ground by another horse!
The knight rolled on the ground swiftly to avoid being crushed by his mount.

"oops!"

Seeing this scene, Chai Zhengzheng and Gu Tingyi both stood up.

Gu Tingyi leaned over and looked at her, and asked anxiously, "Wu Niang, who is that? Are you okay?"

"Han Wulang!"

Wu Niang replied.

Hearing this, Gu Tingyi rolled his eyes, and the meaning of "you deserve it" was overflowing from his eyes.

After all, Han Wu and his gang had been at odds with Gu Tingye and Xu Zaijing from the very beginning.

The two had just finished talking.

There was a burst of cheers in the field.

It turned out that the Beiliao Polo Team scored a goal.

On the other side of the polo field, the horse that had fallen sideways had stood up again.

The son of the Zhongshan Marquis Sha family looked at Han Wulang who had remounted his horse and asked with concern: "Cousin, are you okay?"

Han Chengyun shook his head on horseback, patted the dust off his body, and rode forward, saying, "It's okay!"

At this time, Zhao Weigan from Northern Liao, who had just knocked Han Chengyun down, also rode over on his horse and said, "It was an unintentional mistake just now. Brother Han, are you okay?"

"Yes! Go!"

Han Chengyun nodded and rode his horse to the side.

At this time, another Bei Liao knight came up, smiled at Zhao Weigan who stayed in place, and whispered: "Let's see if he dares to fight us!"

Zhao Wei dared to smile and nodded: "Go!"

After half an incense stick,
The polo ball flew to the sidelines.
Lu Sanlang rode his horse and ran over.
"Shhh!!!"

Outside the polo field wall, the wealthy officials of Bian Jing who were watching the game from the trees booed loudly.

The status of merchants in the Great Zhou Dynasty had already risen, and their children could even take the imperial examinations.

What's more, one of the wealthy families in Bianjing might have spent seven or eight thousand strings of cash to marry a princess from the royal family.

Unfortunately, only the families of officials or nobles can enter today.

"What are you fighting for?"

"I dare not rob or fight today!"

Listening to the "interference" outside the field, Lu Sanlang didn't bother to curse back, but just looked at the Bei Liao knights running towards him.
"Snapped!"

He hit the polo ball out in a panic.

then
Seeing the polo ball being "passed" directly to the Bei Liao Knight's club, Lu Sanlang quickly rode his horse to defend.

Wait for people to go far away,

"Cowardly prisoner!"

There were faint sounds of shouting and cursing outside the stadium.

There were also officials who threw the fruits, food and coins in their hands into the field as "weapons".

"despair"

"Ding"

A copper coin hit the armor of the guard standing on the inner side of the wall.

Xu Yizhou, the former Western Army's first brave soldier and now the Imperial Guard officer, raised his unsheathed sword in one hand and shouted, "What are you doing! If you throw it again, I will ask the cavalry outside to arrest you!"

Hearing this, he looked at the cavalry wandering around from the tree,
The wealthy spectators in the trees outside the wall fell silent instantly.

after awhile,

"Xu~"

An eunuch on horseback stopped nearby.
The eunuch looked at Xu Yizhou standing by the wall and shouted shrilly, "Your Highness has ordered that guards are not allowed to intimidate the people on the sidelines! As long as they don't cross the wall, the people can say whatever they want!"

Xu Yizhou hurriedly bowed and saluted without saying anything.
"Your Highness is wise!"

The wealthy men and the common people in the trees outside the wall shouted loudly.

The eunuch dismounted with a stern face.

He came to Xu Yizhou and whispered, "Your Highness has worked hard, and I will remember the grievances you suffered today."

"Yes!"

Xu Yizhou hurriedly bowed.

"Ok!"

After mounting his horse, the eunuch continued to rush towards the wall in other directions.

Watching from afar,

This was not the only eunuch who went to give instructions to the guards.

then,

The eunuchs have not returned to the tent yet.

The shouting and cheering around the stadium became louder.

The scolding was louder.
After all, there were seven black flags representing the Bei Liao Polo Team on the sidelines, but only three blue flags representing the Da Zhou Polo Team.

"Dang~"

After a gong sounded,

The horses galloping on the polo field slowed down.

"Everyone, please give way!"

Zhao Weigan and the others bowed and said with a smile.

Han Chengyun and the others bowed in return with a forced smile.

Subsequently,

The two teams came to the big tent together.

After a round of greetings and rewards,

After encouraging the two teams, the queen looked at Zhao Fang with a smile and said, "My son, do you have anything to say?"

After Zhao Fang nodded, he looked at Han Chengyun who was standing outside the tent and said in confusion, "Brother Han Jiayun, you were very good at the beginning, what happened later?"

Han Chengyun bowed and was about to speak.

Zhao Fang continued, "Is it because the horse was knocked over?"

"Uh, back to His Highness!"

Zhao Fang nodded: "I think in this court, with your status as the legitimate son of a duke, no one would dare to treat you like this normally."

Han Chengyun bowed his head and said, "Your Highness is wise! What you said is very true!"

"How do the two polo teams behind compare to you?"

"Why don't you go back to your highness and wait for me!"

Listening to Han Wulang's words, Zhao Fang smiled and glanced at the Bei Liao man who nodded.

"Well! Back off."

"Yes."

Wait for people to leave,

The Queen looked at Zhao Fang and asked, "Why? Can't you wait?"

Zhao Fang nodded repeatedly: "Mother, although it was exciting, we have already lost two games!"

The queen smiled and looked in the direction of the ladies: "Please invite the Wu family over."

The eunuch quickly responded.

After a while,
Madam Wu came up to the queen and nodded repeatedly after listening to a few words.

Another eunuch left the big tent and walked towards Xu Zaijing and others who were still talking on the side.

At Xu Zaijing's place,

The eunuch brought He Guan and Cao Yi's mounts closer and bowed, "My brothers, please get ready to go on stage! His Highness can't wait any longer!"

Xu Zaijing and others hurriedly bowed in response.

"Would you like to play a warm-up match with our Great Zhou polo team first?"

Listening to the internal officials' questions,
After a few words were exchanged among themselves, Xu Zaijing said, "No need! Just ask the Jin Kingdom and Northern Liao which polo team wants to challenge us!"

"Yes!"

During the break,

The big tent was bustling with activity.
Many ladies were talking about topics such as "We can't lose again!", "The envoys of the two countries don't know etiquette", and "Are these new kids good enough?"

The envoys from the Jin Kingdom and Northern Liao were arguing with each other in front of the officials from the Ministry of Rites of the Great Zhou Dynasty, discussing who should go on stage first, and they seemed to be ready to compete.

Far away near the stables,

Qingyun, Zhique and Diaoche rode on horses and led their sons' mounts with polo clubs fixed on them towards the center of the field.

"Zhi Que!"

On the field,

Gu Tingye, who was doing warm-up exercises while walking, shouted to the servant in the distance.

Zhique looked at his master's gesture, let go of the reins of Gu Tingye's mount, and let the horse gallop.

After a while,
Qingyun looked at Xu Zaijing waving in the distance, so he let go of the reins of the little black colt.

The two handsome horses galloped towards their respective owners, one in front and one behind.

The changes on the field,
It really attracted the attention of the ladies in the tents on the sidelines.

The people in the trees outside the wall were also talking about it, and someone shouted:
"Hey, hey, hey! The horse ran away! Can these people do anything?"

"That's right! We lost two games!"

"Wow! The black horse behind looks so handsome!"

"Look under its belly! It's a male horse without a castrate! How rare!"

"You have such good eyesight!"

"Such a handsome stallion that has not been castrated yet, what a violent temper it must have! Who can ride it?"

in the field,

Gu Tingye's mount was charging straight ahead.
Without waiting for the mount to approach, Gu Tingye began to jog. When the mount came over, Gu Tingye sped up to keep pace with the mount, then ran a few steps holding the saddle, and then he jumped onto the horse beautifully.

At this time, there were only Xu Zaijing and five others on the empty polo field.

He Guan and Cao Yi were riding horses and walking in front.

The remaining three people, Xu Zaijing, also stood very far apart.

Gu Tingye's extremely beautiful action is very eye-catching!
Therefore,
On the other side of the polo field, the 'atmosphere group' responsible for cheering by beating drums near the scoring flag began to beat the drums.

"it is good!"

"Pretty!"

Outside the wall, the audience who saw this scene cheered.

After mounting the horse, Gu Tingye controlled the reins with one hand, and the horse galloped even faster.

In the Queen's tent,
The ladies who saw Gu Tingye's actions also started laughing and chatting.

Gu Tingye also passed the imperial examination. His actions are worthy of the title of 'excellent in both civil and military affairs'!
Mrs. Bai felt the gazes of the ladies and wives around her and smiled helplessly.

In the Chai family's tent,
"Wow! Sister Tingyi! Brother Gu's movements are so neat!"

"I wonder if the ladies who came to the polo field today would want to be your sister-in-law because of this?"

Wu Niang joked with a smile on her face.

Before Gu Tingyi, who was smiling and scolding, could speak,

Wu Niang shook her head with some regret and said, "It's over, it's over! Brother Xu Wu's limelight is going to be snatched away by Brother Gu Er!"

Chai Zhengzheng, who was sitting next to him, blinked, raised his left hand to the table to support his cheek, and stared at the field: "Xu Jiawulang's mount hasn't arrived yet! It's still uncertain who will be the center of attention!"

Wu Niang shook her head and said, "Zheng Zheng, the horse is running over, and Brother Xu Wu can only mount it like this! Maybe he will grab the saddle with his backhand, stand upside down, and then ride on the horse's neck backwards! I have seen the cavalry under my father's command practice like this!"

"That would have helped me steal some of the limelight! Oops! I ran away!"

As Wu Niang spoke, she pointed at the little black horse that was running past Xu Zaijing and shouted anxiously.

Zhao Fang also saw this scene.
He stood up anxiously, stretched his neck and said anxiously: "What?"

As he said this, he turned his head to glance at the queen.

The queen smiled and said, "Let's see!"

As he said this, he pushed Zhao Fang onto the chair.

Some spectators who saw the little black colt running elsewhere, such as those in the Jin Dynasty delegation, had already laughed.

Several young men from noble families in the Northern Liao delegation also made faces and raised the corners of their mouths.

Han Chengyun was not in the mood to laugh. He just listened to Lu Sanlang's words, "It's very rare for Xu Zaijing to make a fool of himself. We must take a closer look," and nodded.

On the polo field, Cao Yi and He Guan, who were walking in front, looked back and just smiled.

In front of the officials of the Ministry of Rites,

The Jin envoy withdrew his gaze from the field and said, "The people from Northern Liao have just finished the field. You should rest for a while!"

"Playing polo is just a warm-up!" the Bei Liao official replied.

The competition between the two countries' envoys for the opportunity to play became more intense.

in the field,

In the public eye,

The little black colt was not far from Xu Zaijing. It turned around with a slightly reduced speed and continued to run towards Xu Zaijing.
That is the action of turning. In order to maintain the body balance, the little black colt lowered its center of gravity, and its galloping limbs were slightly curled up, and the tilted angle made the height of the horse's back much lower.

When the little black colt ran to Xu Zaijing and repeated the turning action just now, the horse's body blocked Xu Zaijing.

At this time, the distance and height between the man and the horse were extremely well matched, and the saddle on the little black horse's back almost touched Xu Zaijing's waist.

so.
Xu Zaijing simply used a high whip kick to quickly and lightly stride onto the back of the little black colt.
The action of mounting the horse at the same time allowed Xu Zaijing's waist and legs to give the little black colt an outward force. Xu Zaijing's force plus the little black colt's strong and sturdy four hooves, the man and the horse completed the action with such tacit cooperation.

To summarize, the little black horse galloped around the corner, and Xu Zaijing took a step forward and got on the horse.

When the little horse has completed the turn and is gaining speed,
Then there were cries of surprise from all around.

"color!"

"color!"

"Wonderful! So wonderful!"

Outside the stadium wall, the spectators in the trees burst into continuous cheers.

Some of the spectators, including common people and wealthy families, did not know how to express their excitement when seeing this scene, and could only throw silver, copper coins, folding fans, and exquisite purses around their waists into the polo field.

It’s no wonder that the audience was excited; the action was difficult in itself, and Xu Zaijing also had to coordinate with the handsome stallion who had not been castrated and had a bad temper.

Xu Yizhou was standing by the wall, looking up at the objects falling like rain around him with a smile on his face.

He turned around and looked at the excited people on the tree outside the wall, and then looked at his comrades around him who were also excited, and thought to himself: "You are just watching the fun, I have fought side by side with this guy!"

Thinking of this, he took a deep breath with great satisfaction.

Gu Tingye was riding a horse with a smug expression on his face, but there was a look of confusion in his eyes.

"Shut up!"

Gu Tingye stopped his mount and looked at Liang Han beside him: "No! How did Jingge'er get up there?"

Liang Han followed Xu Zaijing with his eyes, shook his head blankly, and said, "This move is so damn good! This horse must have become a spirit!"

In the tent on the sidelines,
Zhao Fang and Liang Han had similar expressions, staring at Xu Zaijing riding his horse in the field in amazement, and said, "Mother, can this son learn from me?"

The queen shook her head, feeling a little regretful for bringing her son to watch polo.

Chai's tent,

Wu Niang turned her head mechanically and looked at her two best friends beside her: "Zheng Zheng, you are right! Sister Tingyi, how did Xu Wu accomplish this move?"

Zheng Zheng and Ting Yi stared with wide eyes and shook their heads. Chai Zheng Zheng whispered, "I-I didn't see it clearly."

Rong family tent,

Behind the table with fruits and dried fruits,
Wearing light-colored robes,

Rong Feiyan, with a few exquisite jade jewelry simply pinned on her black hair, held her cheeks with both hands and looked at Xu Zaijing who was riding a horse with a smile on her face.

The maid said in a surprised tone, "Young lady, you are really amazing! I just knew that Xu Jia Wulang has even more powerful moves."

Rong Feiyan smiled and said, "He has always been powerful."

In the polo field,

He Guan and Cao Yi drove their horses forward and backward skillfully.

Liang Han rode a horse and walked a distance with the polo stick on his tiptoes.

"Brother Ye!"

Xu Zaijing shouted while warming up, holding the polo stick.

Gu Tingye turned his head while riding on his horse, looked at the polo ball passed to him by Xu Zaijing, adjusted his posture, and swung the club hard.

"Snapped!"

The polo ball in the air flew towards the goal from the half court.

After flying for a while,
"when!"

The polo ball hit the wooden board just above the goal and bounced off to the ground.

"Oh no! Why is it like this again!"

Gu Tingye shook his head in annoyance.

courtside,

The envoys from the Jin Kingdom and Northern Liao saw this scene.

Suddenly, there was no more tugging and fighting.

Instead, we became very polite and pushed each other.

"Your country should go first! My Northern Liao Knights just finished a battle! They need to rest for a while! The Great Zhou is a great country, so how could it take advantage of others' misfortune?"

Listening to the words of the Northern Liao envoy,
The official from the Great Zhou Rites Department looked back at the Queen and Zhao Fang in the big tent, smiled slightly, and said, "Then let's ask the talented people from Northern Liao to go first! After all, your country was just warming up just now."

The Jin envoy bowed and said, "Yes, that's right! That's right!"
