A small polo match is being staged today at a horse farm of the imperial guards in the Li Palace of Phoenix Mountain. The horse leaps like a dragon, the knight swings the pole, the joy when scoring a goal, and the frustration after losing a point. Everything is intertwined. Together, they form an extremely vivid picture scroll.However, the center of the picture scroll is not the people sweating in the arena, but Zheng Kezang sitting at the top of the stands.It is the every move of the supreme king that really grabs the audience's attention.

However, Zheng Kezang, who is already getting old, is slightly dizzy and can no longer see clearly the final landing point of the wooden ball moving at high speed on the court, and he can't even judge which team has mastered it based on the excited or anxious cheers on the court. Without the initiative, perhaps only the brightly colored uniforms in the running can point out the general direction of offensive and defensive transitions, and only the scoring team's successful full-court tour can let them know the changes in the situation on the court.

Of course, Zheng Kezang, who has been unable to get passion and pleasure from the game, did not come to watch polo to feel the vitality of young people. In fact, he does not care about the outcome of the game. His gaze falls more on the side of the throne. On the stands on the left and right, there are two groups of members of the Zheng family sitting respectively.

The group sitting on the lower left side of Zheng Kezang are the royal family members, including the wives and concubines of the princes who have left the town of Abbot Dalu, as well as married and unmarried princesses.Among them, the married sisters-in-law are sizing up and commenting on the strong body of the young guards full of masculinity with rare presumptuous eyes, so that the little princesses and princesses who have not yet been born can only wear silk scarves Cover your ears, and peek at the racers with shy eyes.

In this regard, Zheng Kezang is not worried that there will be scandals that will embarrass the royal family. After all, these female relatives are surrounded by countless guarding female officials and eunuchs.What's more, the shackles of etiquette are everywhere, and the parties involved know that if something should not happen, they are afraid that it will not only harm themselves, but also make the people around them fall into a situation of eternal doom. The pampered princesses are no exception.

The group sitting on the lower right side of Zheng Kezang are young princes and grandsons, most of whom are under ten years old and have not yet entered martial arts at all levels. Only a very small number of them are Zheng Kezang's temporary apprentices They were recalled from the school of martial arts and young martial arts, and they are the real protagonists today. Even the princes and concubines on the left put more than half of their attention on them.

"Tie Qi," Zheng Kezang looked at the prince and grandson who were supposed to be lively and active, sitting there uncomfortably motionless, not even daring to dance at the moment of scoring a goal. The chief servant next to him ordered. "Tell Fenyang County Lord and them that there is no need to be formal."

Before Tie Qi retreated, a servant walked up to him quietly and whispered a few words, so Tie Qi reported to Zheng Kezang: "Your Majesty, Duke Liu and Duke Changsha have just returned to court and are waiting in the Daqing Palace. I will be received by the Holy Majesty."

"Have you come back yet?" Zheng Kezang was slightly distracted, but quickly restrained his expression. "Okay, let's drive."

Zheng Kezang's sudden departure caused a stir among the clan members watching the game. They didn't know what happened, but the polo game was not called to stop, so they had no choice but to continue watching while speculating, and the atmosphere suddenly became a little strange.On the contrary, the younger princes and grandsons lost their restraint, and gradually started laughing and laughing, finally having a bit of childish fun.

Zheng Kezang didn't know what happened after he left the stadium, but even if he knew, he would just laugh it off. After all, he planned to let the children relax, and there was no need to show his maturity in front of him.

It's just that Zheng Kezang's attitude varies from person to person. When he saw his two eldest sons appearing in front of him, he just said lightly: "It's been a hard journey, and he looks pretty good."

Zheng Anyang and Zheng Andi bowed down almost at the same time, and responded in unison: "Your servant is not tired of waiting."

"What you say doesn't match your heart." Zheng Kezang snorted lightly. "Wanli Luyao's heart is like an arrow, plus he is worried about the ownership of the reserve, and he is uneasy. Can you not work hard?" Zheng Kezang waved his hand when he saw the two sons who looked embarrassed but did not dare to argue. "Okay, your wives and children are waiting on the court, and have gone to see it, and then come back to pay respects to the queen"

"Sister Tang, I heard that you beat up your son-in-law a few days ago?" Since Zheng Kezang was not there, the female relatives could speak a little louder. "What's the matter, haven't you always heard that you two are very affectionate? Why did you get into trouble all of a sudden?"

"Sister, you don't know, it's just that he didn't give birth to a boy for his family, and actually found a second room without telling me." Zheng Yuntang, the Princess of Deying, was furious when she mentioned this matter. "You said whether you should fight or not."

"There are three ways to be unfilial, and having no offspring is the greatest. If you beat up your son-in-law because of this, you may be sued by the Overwatch Council to your father, and you will not be able to please him." Princess De'an Zheng Yunrou persuaded. "Men are always stealthy. As long as he stays with you more, it's better to live with it. After all, people are chosen by themselves."

"Elder sister, that's not right." Princess Deqi Zheng Yunhe said for Zheng Yuntang. "The love is gone, the love is hard to chase, and I barely survived. I just hate each other. It's better to break up and see each other."

"Out of sight is pure? Then you are willing to stay alone in the empty room?" Princess Detong Zheng Yuntao curled her lips. "If you really want to raise a face, the father will not be able to pass the test." Zheng Kezang can promise his daughters to choose their own husbands, and he does not object to their widowed spouses remarrying, but he will never allow his daughters to live like the princesses of the former Tang Dynasty erosion. "still"

Zheng Yuntao didn't finish her sentence, but by accident, she found an impossible person: "Big brother, second brother, you guys, why are you back? Did you escape from the abbot secretly?"

Zheng Yuntao's discovery made the women's stand chaotic. Some cried with joy when they found their lover back, and some wives and concubines of uncles and brothers anxiously asked about their man's situation in the abbot. Fortunately, Zheng Kezang had already expected it, so the servants who came with him Before the chaos expanded, he shouted loudly: "The Holy One ordered the Lord Liu and the Duke of Changsha County to pay their respects to the Queen with their wives and sons."

Zheng Andi then bowed to the female relatives present and said: "Father has a will, I can't wait for long, but brothers and sisters, don't worry, Baoguan and I have returned with letters from Shengguan and the others, and we will send them to each family later. House."

At this time, Zheng Andi's eldest son Zheng Pingsong, son of Shuozhuang County, Zheng Pingbai, son of Dazhu County, Zheng Anyang's eldest son Zheng Pingli, son of Dongtai County, and Zheng Pinghui, son of Sanmen County, who heard the movement, also walked quickly from the other side. The side stands came around.Although these emperors and grandchildren are already martial arts students, they are still children after all, and they still have expressions of admiration on their faces, which makes the two contenders for the throne who have been independent for several years to establish a country feel unbearably embarrassed?

"Father is unfair. As long as Liu Guogong and Changsha County Duke can come back, Ludong County Duke and the others will have to stay and suffer in the wilderness." Cao Shi, wife of Ludong County Duke Zheng Anjiao, watched the two families leave. The back suddenly exploded. "No, I want to implore my father, you, which one of you is willing to go with me."

"Old Wu Family, shut up." Zheng Yunjia, Princess of Deyang, suddenly yelled at Mrs. Cao. "Don't make trouble for the fifth child."

"Let fifth master come back, it's nothing to add to the chaos." Cao said dissatisfied. "Second sister, isn't fifth master your younger brother?"

"What do you know?" Zheng Yunjia scanned the audience. "Father is preparing for the establishment of the crown prince." The scene suddenly fell silent. "If my guess is correct, the crown prince is either the eldest or the second child. Is it because you are preparing to fight for this position by letting your family come back at this time?" Maybe it hit some people's minds, and many female family members became uneasy. "Don't say whether your family is qualified or not. Even if there is, this seat is also rewarded by the father. If you insist on fighting for it, what will happen if you hate the father? Haven't you thought about it? So, don't get involved good."

If no one else had too much hope, Long Shi, the first wife of the third son of the emperor, Zheng Anling, who was recently conferred the title of Lord Jian, couldn't hold back her excitement, and burst out: "If it is said that Duke Liu is the crown prince, it may be logical. , but why does the Duke of Changsha fight for this seat, is it because he is the oldest?"

"Why? Just rely on my father's preference." Zheng Yunjia said coldly. "The third brother, you know what you want to say, it's just that the boss and the second child have a chance, and your family also has a chance. But I advise you to go back and write to Guan Sheng to see if he is willing to take this trip Water. In the final analysis, this seat is not just for qualifications.”

Wang Shi, the wife of Zheng Anfeng, Duke of Qiao County, frowned and said, "We are just worried about our husband-in-law who is thousands of miles away, not for the crown prince. Second sister, you don't have to speak so alarmistly."

Zheng Yunjia interrupted Wang's words with a serious face: "Are you just worried? I hope that's the case."

Immediately, Zheng Yunjia changed the subject and said: "It's not that I have to be this villain today. After a long time, you will know my good intentions. It is true that the Tian family is ruthless, especially when it comes to the ownership of the throne, and it is bloody. If we can't categorically give up our extravagant hopes, I'm afraid we won't be able to meet each other in the future."

The female relatives of several prince's residences looked at each other silently, and after a long time, they all congratulated Zheng Yunjia: "Thank you, Second Sister, for your advice."

After listening for a long time, Zheng Yunrou clapped her hands and said, "It's good to understand, no, the dark clouds have cleared for a day, let's continue to watch polo, the good guy has already stopped to wait for us."

When everyone sat down again, and the polo started over there again, someone suddenly mentioned: "I'm afraid there will be a fierce battle between Liu Guogong and Changsha County Duke. This is a good show." .”

Zheng Yunjia said angrily, "Shut up! If you don't want to watch the game, get out."

Zheng Yunrou grabbed her younger sister's hand and gently squeezed it: "It's okay, Father must have made arrangements long ago, and there will be no disputes."

Zheng Yunjia sighed: "Yes, Father Huang Shengming, nothing will happen."
