Tibet

Today is an unforgettable day for polo fans. Several large polo stadiums in Chang'an will hold the last day of group matches to determine the semi-finals list.

Among the most watched games, one is Gao Lishi's Tianpeng Polo Team playing against the Xiaoqiwei Polo Team, competing for first place in the group. Regardless of whether they win or lose, the two teams are ranked first and second in the first group. Just watch. Who ranks higher.

However, the Knights Polo Team was second last year and also ranked second in the strength list, while the Tianpeng team reached the top ten last year, but failed to make the top five. It ranked eighth in the strength list.

Of course, eighth place and second place can't be compared, but the Tianpeng team defeated the Knight Guards three years ago, so it's hard to predict today's outcome.

Around the stadium, 20,000 fans shouted in unison, and the drums beat loudly.

In the stadium, horses galloped and polo balls flew like shadows. The two teams fought fiercely. Currently, the Knight Riders lead seven to four.

Although Gao Lishi has all the power in the government and is recognized as the second-ranking figure in the government, he is very concerned about face and does not allow others to fake losses to his team.

As a eunuch, Gao Lishi doesn't have many hobbies, and polo is one of them. His biggest goal is to enter the ring competition and challenge last year's Tiankui Longwu army. This is also his dream.

It would be best if he could win the first prize. Even if he could not win the first prize, he could still get the title of Tiangui, and he would be very satisfied.

After passing five levels and killing six generals, the first place in the polo league is called Tiangui. If the attack is successful and the Tiankui Longwu army of last year is defeated, it will be called a double champion, combining Tiankui and Tiangui.

Gao Lishi looked at the game on the court indifferently, while Prime Minister Li Linfu sat next to him.

The two of them chatted while watching the game.

"Who is the second group Aweng optimistic about?"

"The situation in the second group is very obvious. Fan Yang's army must be in first place. An Lushan is still somewhat capable. Qianniu Guards is a little behind. After all, they have no actual combat basis and can only be ranked second."

"What about the third group?" Li Linfu focused on the third group.

"The Hexi Army is definitely first, but I can't tell if it is second. We have to watch the afternoon game."

"It is said that the Yang family polo team is very popular for qualifying, and the gambling house has already accounted for 70% of the winning chances."

Gao Lishi sneered and said: "Yang Guozhong is too stupid. He can't even see such an obvious plan to mourn the troops. The Yang team is probably going to be in trouble this time."

"What Aweng means is that the Flying Shark's injury is fake?"

Gao Lishi's eyelids were slightly closed and he said calmly: "Isn't the tragic victory against the Jiannan army not obvious enough?"

At this time, on the court, Falcon shot a long shot from a hundred paces away, but the ball did not hit the hole and bounced out. It was grabbed by the Knights' interceptor and passed out.

Gao Lishi shook his head and said with some dissatisfaction: "This falcon still doesn't have enough firepower. It can obviously shoot the sixty-step line, but it insists on showing off its skills and shoots the hundred-step line. The result..."

"Both are rookies, but at the 100-step mark, Flying Shark seems to be better!"

"Hmph! Not only is he stronger, he is simply too much stronger. In the first game against the Yang family, he turned the tide and made a comeback in a desperate situation. This is the first time I have seen such a young master. King Si Ning is so lucky."

Li Linfu's heart is like a mirror, and Gao Lishi is extremely attracted to Fei Shark.

At this time, a eunuch came quickly and whispered a few words in Gao Lishi's ear.

Gao Lishi laughed and said, "The morning match of the third group is over. The Yang family polo team lost to the Hexi Army 3 to 8. Li Xiangguo, let's go and watch the afternoon match. It will definitely be exciting."

Li Linfu smiled and said: "If Mr. Gao is interested, a certain family will accompany you!"

． ． ． ． ． ． ． ．

Li Ye arrived at the Polo Grounds in Tai Chi Palace by carriage. This is also the venue for the polo test finals. It is said that this is also the venue for the last arena match in the Polo League.

Li Ye couldn't figure out why the match between Ningwang Polo Team and Zuojian Guards Polo Team was arranged here?

"There is no conspiracy, don't overthink it!"

Leng Yue, who was sitting next to him, explained: "All venues are determined by drawing lots. In front of all the team leaders, Polo Department officials drew lots. The last game of the third group was drawn here. No one was there at that time. You know, who is playing against whom in the last game of the third group?”

"In that case, why don't the Yang family apply for the afternoon competition?" Li Ye asked.

"It's not up to the Yang family. The three groups are scheduled to be formed by the Hexi Army. They have to have a game on the last day. They chose the morning. The entire plan was reported to the emperor. The emperor has already signed and approved it, and the Polo Department does not dare to change it."

Li Ye smiled and said: "So the Yang family can only compete in the morning!"

"That's right! Yang Xuan approached the Polo Department and wanted to change it to the afternoon, but he was rejected. This is God's will!"

Speaking of this, Leng Yue looked at Li Ye and said slowly: "This is the first time in eight years that the Ningwang Polo Team is so close to qualifying. Whether they can realize God's will or not, I'm counting on you today!"

"Is there any explanation for my injury?" Li Ye suddenly asked.

Leng Yue nodded, "Hitting your arm is like hitting the prince in the face. The two people who did it have been found in Xianyang County."

Of course, Li Ye would not be stupid enough to take Yang Guozhong's idea. That would happen in Maweipo seven years later.

"So it's not God's will. It's up to me to work hard!"

Li Ye laughed, opened the door and got out of the carriage, pulled off the splints and suspenders, turned over and put on Mo Jin, held the polo club in one hand and the reins in the other, and ran towards the polo ground.

Leng Yue looked at his back and said to herself with a smile: "This brat, why do I always think he is in his twenties?"

． ． ． ． ． ． ． ．

The polo drums were beating like thunder, flags were fluttering, and excited shouts resounded throughout the venue.

This is when the fans of the King Ning team discovered that Fei Shark was on the stage. They were so excited that they shouted and beat the gongs and drums desperately.

Yang Xuan was looking for the nine-headed bird, but did not find him on the scene. At this time, a polo player from the Ningwang team ran into the field. Yang Xuan thought it was the nine-headed bird, but when he saw clearly that the person running in turned out to be When the shark flew, he was immediately shocked.

Watching Fei Shark swinging the polo club in full swing, he didn't even look injured at all.

Yang Xuan's mind changed and he immediately understood that he had been fooled.

He felt panicked and glanced at his father uneasily. Unexpectedly, his father Yang Guozhong was staring at him fiercely, his eyes were as fierce as a wolf, as if to say, 'I'll deal with you when I get back!' ’

Yang Xuan's face turned pale in an instant. They should have traded with the Hexi army, but it was too late now.

Next to him, Yang Hui understood Yang Xuan's mood at this time very well. He was secretly proud of himself. He had been removed from the team leader qualification because he lost to the King Ning Polo Team, and was demoted to a manager, responsible for logistics arrangements, and was not allowed to make any decisions. He did.

Now Yang Xuan also made a big mistake and was successfully deceived by Team Ning. Of course Yang Hui was gloating about his misfortune, but he still had to say a few words to comfort him hypocritically.

"Don't worry, eldest son. The Zuojian Guards Polo Team is ranked tenth in the strength list, and Prince Ning's Polo Team is ranked fifteenth. There is a huge gap between the two. No matter how powerful the conspiracy is, it cannot compare to the strength."

Yang Xuan sighed and said: "I hope so!"

At the VIP seat in the stands, Gao Lishi had already arrived, and Li Linfu sat beside him. This made Yang Guozhong feel very uncomfortable, but he could not help it. Although the Yang family was very favored, Yang Guozhong's current official position did not qualify him to sit next to Gao Lishi. .

Gao Lishi looked at Li Ye who was running in, and said with a proud smile: "Li Xiangguo, I was right!"

Li Linfu gave a thumbs up and praised sincerely: "Gao Weng's eyes are as bright as a torch. Nothing can be hidden from Gao Wen's eyes!"

Gao Lishi chuckled, and his eyes fell on Fei Shark again. He looked at the young man's high spirits, and his whole body seemed to contain huge power.

Gao Lishi couldn't help but sigh softly, "It's great to be young!"

Li Linfu realized Gao Lishi's heartfelt love for this flying shark. He could not hear Gao Lishi's comments like this from the equally young Falcon.

At this moment, Li Linfu finally made up his mind.
