Chapter 185 The Enemy Meets (Part [-])

The three sisters of the Cui family had already followed the other guests to the main hall of Bieye. Several young ladies were sitting around the hall and chatting.

So Cui Wei didn't know about the episode outside, and when she received the cue handed over by the maid, she just lamented her sister-in-law's thoughtfulness—oh, it's true that her own sister-in-law is reliable, even the polo club she didn't have Know.

How could Cui Wei expect that she had already been used as a stepping stone by her sister-in-law, let alone that without her knowing, her name had already been blacklisted by the Dingxiang County Lord.Ah Ming is not Lin Daiyu who lives under the fence, she will only sulk if she is ridiculed in public, she is a majestic county lord, she didn't whip Wu Wuniang on the spot, it was for Xiao Nan's sake, she can't get angry, ah You can only secretly write down the people who made her unhappy, and she will pay back one by one in the future.

Unfortunately, Cui Wei, who was used by Xiaoliu's family as an excuse, was also swept into the list of "retaliation" by Auntie.

What's even more unfortunate is that Cui Wei was drawn to hate for no reason but she didn't know anything. She only knew one thing. Cui Xuan said that there were several royal family members participating in the polo match today. It is said that the favorite The king of Shu who rides and shoots will also appear in Leyouyuan.

Ever since she came back from the King of Shu's mansion that day, Cui Wei has been actively making various preparations. On the one hand, she sent her confidant maid to inquire about the King of Shu's movements, and on the other hand, she worked hard to practice equestrian skills.During this period, for unknown reasons, Cui Wei did not tell her brother and sister-in-law what was on her mind, and even when no one was helping her find out the news, she never asked her brother for help, but quietly took out all her private houses , so that the maid can take care of it.

In addition, based on the principle of spare tires, Cui Wei also handed notes to Li Jing every day, wrote love poems, and continued to hook up with Li Jing.

Everything went smoothly, and now that she has this newly made cue, Cui Wei took out one and swung it. For some reason, she felt that the cue was not very strong.

However, it was exactly what she wanted.

"Sister-in-law, eighth sister-in-law, Nanping county master, and Xiangcheng county master are here."

Cui Xuan was dual-minded while chatting with the little noble girl beside her, while peeking at the door, and after a while, she saw Xiao Nan and Ashina who came in hand in hand, and hurriedly called Cui Wei and Cui Heng softly, The three sisters all stood up to greet each other.

Here, Xiao Nan is apologizing to Ah Ming.

Ah Ming is a straightforward person, after listening to Xiao Nan's words, he waved his hands again and again, "Qiao Mu, I'm not confused, this matter has nothing to do with you, hmph, one person can ascend to heaven alone, those people are just looking at Wu Cairen in the palace. You are doing well here, and you really regard yourself as a relative of the emperor. Also, since the "Spring Society" was played, there have been rumors in the capital that the saint is going to march eastward, and those generals' families have also come alive. My sister-in-law I also receive posts every day."

Not to mention that Lord Hou, who puts on a posture of a best friend, either writes to her, or invites her to come out to enjoy the spring...

Come on, everyone is in the social circle of the capital, who doesn't know who?She Ashina likes to wield knives and guns, but no one stipulates that everyone in Xiwu is a simple-minded person. You are like Sima Zhao, and even a blind person can see your intentions.

The above are the complaints that Aunt receives every time when she receives a letter or invitation from Hou Junjun. In fact, in Auntie’s opinion, if Hou Junjun is not her real best friend, she is a good friend, and she will not persuade her father and brother to recommend Hou Junjun’s father to do it The coach of the Eastern Expedition.

Just kidding, Hou Shangshu made a big mistake when he leveled Gaochang. If it wasn't for the kindness of the saint, he would still be in prison right now, and now he wants to be in command again?

Hmph, even if someone recommends him, the saint will not consider him.

However, these words involve government affairs, so it is not good to chat with people in private.

There is another reason, Ah Ye and Brother Ah have reminded Ah Min that their historians have a special situation (foreigners who surrendered from the Turks), and they are military generals who have been in charge of the army. They can only be pure ministers of saints, fighting for the throne or something , princes, kings, etc., their historians do not mix.

As for Xiao Nan, her mother is the eldest princess of the sage, and her husband is a new Jinshi from the Hongwen Museum. No matter what Xiao Nan thinks, she is labeled as a princeling.

Ah Ming and Xiao Nan have a very close personal relationship, but this kind of friendship can only be limited to private matters, but for major matters involving family interests, it is better for them to keep some distance between them.

Xiao Nan was also well aware of this, so she didn't tell Ah Ming about some things, such as the fact that she was in charge of Xiao Nanshan for the queen.

"Well, I've also heard some rumors about this matter, but I, Aye, don't accept the real job, and Mr. Lang has just been admitted as a new Jinshi and has not passed the selection of the official department. It is estimated that there will be a war, and I will not be affected by it." Influence." As he said that, Xiao Nan seemed to think of something, and asked casually: "By the way, when it comes to the Ministry of Officials, I remember that Aye of Lord Hou Jun is the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, oops, I forgot to invite Lord Hou Let's play polo together, I just hope Lord Hou won't blame me."

Ah Ming was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "She has no time to blame you, she is busy."

Xiao Nan's eyes flickered, "Oh? Busy? Yes, Hou Shangshu is also a famous general in the world. Now that the battle is imminent, the Hou family must be very busy, right?!"

Ah Ming didn't speak, just nodded with a smile, with an expression of 'we all understand'.

However, Xiao Nan didn't end the topic according to Ah Ming's intention, but continued: "Since that's the case, let's not bother Hou Junjun less, Ah Ming, what do you think?"

Ah Ming turned her head to look at Xiao Nan, seeing her calm and gentle expression, she was not sure if she had any deep meaning in what she said, such as reminding her to stay away from Hou's house.

"Hehe, what are you looking at, have you never seen a beautiful woman?"

Feeling her attention, Xiao Nan tilted his head slightly and said with a smile.

"Tch, the beauty didn't see it, but the little chubby pig has one."

Ah Ming pouted contemptuously, and put aside the topic just now while laughing.

Not long after, all the female guests invited by Xiao Nan arrived. After exchanging pleasantries, she led everyone to the polo field.

A group of people said and did it, and before they got close to the polo field, they heard the loud chatter and laughter, the sound of horseshoes and drums inside.

"Huh? They've already started?"

These days, the defense of men and women is not as perverted as the later dynasties. In a national sport like polo, it is not considered immoral for men and women to gather together as spectators.

Therefore, a group of women, big and small, did not hold back, but walked into the stadium openly, and came to the stands that Xiao Nan had prepared in advance.

On the field paved with yellow sand, more than [-] vigorous men wearing two different colors of riding clothes rode horses and galloped, holding the reins in one hand and polo clubs in the other. Polo balls with red and yellow colored ribbons are flying up and down, and the drums behind the goal holes on both sides of the field are ringing, which is a lively polo scene.

Xiao Nan turned his head to look at Hong Hua, "The one in the red riding suit is Mr. Lang, right? He's gone too? Who is fighting with him?"

Among the four maids of the red letter generation, Hong Hua played the best polo, so Xiao Nan arranged for her to inspect the polo field.

Honghua Fuli replied: "The princess, it is Mr. Li's good friend from the same department, Li Jiadalang. Li Lang said that when he was visiting flowers in Xingyuan, he and Mr. Lang were both envoys, but they couldn't tell the winner. Since we are here to play polo today, we might as well compete on the court again."

Li Lang?Li Jing? !

Xiao Nan's heart twitched violently twice, and she clenched the palm she had just loosened again, and she tried her best to use a soft tone to say: "Oh? But Li Lang from the Li family in Longxi? The one who is on good terms with Mr. Liu Lang?"

Honghua nodded, "Yes, Liu Langjun also became interested after hearing Li Langjun's words, and ordered someone to take a gold collar as a lottery on the spot, saying that he is optimistic about our husband, and betting on the red team to win."

The corner of Xiao Nan's mouth twitched, his clenched hands loosened again, and he secretly sweated profusely: Er, you really have a strong gambling spirit.

He asked casually, "Apart from Liu Langjun, is there anyone else who bet?"

Ah Ming also gathered around to join in the fun, "Yes, yes, hehe, if someone is in the dealership, I will also bet twice."

Honghua lowered her head and wiped her sweat, and replied respectfully: "Mr. Liu Lang sits in the manor, Mr. Balang, Mr. Li Lang, and Jun Wei's horse (that is, Wei Yuan), Mr. Wu Lang and others have all placed bets."

Xiao Nan glanced at the scoreboard in the middle of the polo field, oh, neither side has scored yet, so he asked again, "Did Mr. Ba Lang and Li Lang also bet? They also bet a lot of money?"

If she remembers correctly, Li Jing's situation at this time is not good, almost relying on pawns to live.

Well, if it can make him bleed a lot, it seems not bad.

Honghua has already replied: "Yes, the two gentlemen are very confident in the team they want to lead." A piece of gold is not a small amount, it can be spent on ordinary people for several years.

The corners of Xiao Nan's lips curled up, he called Hong Jiao, whispered a few words in her ear, and waved her to go down.

Ah Ming was curious, "What are you doing?" For some reason, she thought Qiao Mu's smile was weird.

Xiao Nan shook his head and said with a smile: "It's nothing, just let the little maid help me to make a bet, just to support my husband." By the way, I would like to give some advice to the 'banker', to trick someone a little.

"Oh, didn't I say it just now, I want to play two games too, I, I haven't said it yet."

Ah Ming was in a hurry, and hurriedly turned around to stop that Hong Jiao who ran a dozen steps away.

Seeing this, Honghua hurriedly said respectfully: "The county lord, don't worry, the servant girl is willing to help you place bets."

After hearing this, Ah Ming turned around and ordered the maid to take a piece of 'feiqian' (something like a bank note) and hand it to Hong Hua, "Well, I also bet on Cui Ba to win."

Nan Ping on the side also ordered the servant girl to take Zhang Fei's money, "I bet on Li Langjun." Although she liked Cui Yulang very much, it had become a habit to fight against Xiao Nan.

The ladies around heard this, and they all expressed their desire to gamble, but Xiao Nan secretly shook his head: It's true that everyone gambles, no wonder her polo lottery was so popular in her previous life.

Well, in this life, should she follow this momentum and release it again?

Just as she was thinking about it, Cui Wei said, "It's not fun to simply bet like this, Mrs. Ba, ladies and gentlemen, do you want to play some more exciting games?"
