Chapter 188: Like a Star
At this time, Concubine Min found that Zhang Kejiu was standing behind Yunyang with a group of small palace maids and eunuchs, so she glanced at him meaningfully, but she didn't speak. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
Distinguished guests from all walks of life have come to the game one after another, and they have stepped onto the high platform.
Taifu Zhao Di, in his sixties, with gray hair, red face, tall physique, burly figure, wearing a red red nine python spit bead cloud brocade robe, surrounded by four young age ministers with flowers and branches, came over and sat on the high platform on Yunyang's left hand. Zhao Di is the uncle of the first emperor, and he is the oldest one in the emperor's clan.
After he sat down, he greeted Concubine Min, and when he saw Yunyang, he immediately put a smile on the corner of his mouth, and said: "Concubine Niangniang lives in a simple place, and I am fortunate to see it for the first time today, and it is really a heavenly man." ”
Then he lowered his voice and said, "I look coldly, the saint has never been so attentive to any concubine today, and the blessing of the concubine is very accessible. ”
Seeing this, Yun Yang got up and saluted back: "Taifu is really making fun." ”
After sitting down, Yun Yang felt uneasy again, afraid that Taifu's words just now would make Concubine Min unhappy. She glanced back at Concubine Min, and surprisingly, Concubine Min did not have the slightest dissatisfaction on her face. This made Yunyang feel uneasy.
At this time, I saw a middle-aged official wearing a black soft silk robe with mud and gold trim sitting on the high platform on the right hand side of Concubine Min. Presumably, this is the other party to the competition, Wang Chongbei, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites.
After he saluted everyone, he also greeted Yunyang specifically.
Yunyang raised his eyes and looked around, and saw that the guests on the high platform in the game hall were mostly looking at him, and they were full of smiles, which was quite flattering.
Looking at Concubine Min again, knowing that everyone was looking here, she held Yunyang's hand and put it on the table, smiling, shushing and asking for warmth, laughing from time to time, as if she was very familiar with Yunyang, and her expression was very different from that when she was in the new hall before.
Although Yunyang didn't know why, facing her bright smiling face, he couldn't help but put down his previous vigilance. I also thought in my heart that it was really not good to hide in the Qiao Palace, but when I came out for a walk, I found that everyone was very friendly to me, not as I had thought before.
After talking for a while, Yunyang picked up the Yingqing Pisces tea cup, and after drinking tea, he glanced at Zhang Kejiu behind him, his face was sinking like water, and there were many contents in his eyes, as if he wanted to speak and stopped.
Putting down the teacup, Yunyang saluted Concubine Min, saying that he was going to change his clothes and retire for a while.
After leaving the game with his palace people, he walked to a secluded place, Yun Yang asked the other palace people to stand in place, and he and Zhang Kejiu walked away five or six zhang away, stopping under a peach tree.
Zhang Kejiu whispered: "Niangniang, do you know the mystery of today's game? ”
Yunyang shook his head.
Do you know why there are only two thrones today? The old slave guessed that Concubine Min probably only invited you, as long as you came, she would be considered a success. ”
After listening to Zhang Kejiu's words, Yunyang was even more puzzled, why he didn't like Keju, why he became the main figure instead.
Seeing that Yunyang still didn't understand, Zhang Kejiu continued: "Most of the gatherings in the palace are for the purpose of making friends with powerful people, so that they can use each other in the court in the future. Today, Concubine Min held a Keju conference in order to envelop the Taifu, but if there are few people or the grade is not high, the Taifu will definitely be unhappy, so I must invite you here. ”
Yun Yang's eyes widened in surprise: "This palace is just a concubine, the same position as Concubine Min, and her seniority in the harem is still shallow, and Su Ri has no contact with the ministers of the court." What is the use of her inviting me? ”
Zhang Kejiu said: "You are deeply favored now. Everyone in the court knows that the emperor forced you to stay in Luoyang,
Last time, I was demoted to a concubine, and the emperor personally went to Baicheng to pick you up. ”
"After being named a concubine, she is the favorite of the special room, which is still unique in this dynasty. You are a red man in the eyes of the emperor, and all the forces in the court and China naturally want to win you over and let you speak for them in front of the emperor, and you usually live in a simple place, and people outside the palace can't see you at all, let alone get close. ”
"The old slave guessed that Concubine Min must have let out her mouth early in the morning, saying that you would come to participate in this game, so the powerful people in the court and China can come so well today."
After listening to Zhang Kejiu's words, Yunyang was empowered and secretly scolded herself for being too simple, but she still had one thing to understand: "Why did Concubine Min bother to get to know Taifu so much?" ”
Zhang Kejiu pondered for a while and said, "Niangniang, you will know this in a moment." ”
Seeing him say this, Yunyang was inconvenient to ask, and secretly thought to himself: No wonder Concubine Min hasn't come out to stir up trouble these days, it turns out that it is because I still have use value.
Back in the game, the Keju tournament began. Yunyang gently got on the high platform and sat down next to Concubine Min quietly.
Today's game uses the Wenbi method. That is, there are two red copper rods in the center of the field, and a round goal is held on it, and the two Keju teams stand on both sides of the goal, and each side exerts its own strength, each showing its ability, which team kicks in the most balls, which team wins.
At this time, the red-clothed Taifu family team and the black-clothed Shilang family team were playing fiercely back and forth, and the score was rising alternately.
Yunyang doesn't often watch the Keju competition, but he only knows that this sport is deeply loved by the royal family of the Great Qi Kingdom, and it is really a very fierce sport when I see it today. It is not surprising that the royal family of the Great Qi Kingdom is from a martial arts background and likes this kind of lively and fast-paced sports.
She thought to herself: "I remember that an emperor once wrote the poem "Keju": dense and clear shade are all shell palaces, brocade clothes and hats are in the east wind. The most pitiful is like a star, and the ancient and modern are the same. When I saw it today, it was so. ”
Just when everyone thought that the stalemate between the two teams would continue until the end of the game, suddenly none of the red teams kicked into the goal. It was like a plague, it was contagious, and then three more members of the redcoat team kicked Keju away.
When Taifu saw the scene in front of him, his eyes were red with anxiety, and he hammered the case hard, originally Yingying Yanyan surrounded his concubine, and when he saw Taifu angry, he was so frightened that he hid in a corner of the high platform and didn't dare to speak.
Seeing that the time was ripe, Concubine Min smiled at Taifu and said: "You don't have to worry, the time has not come, the outcome is unpredictable, as long as one person appears on the stage at this time, it will definitely be able to turn things around." ”
When Taifu heard this, he immediately came to his senses and said to Concubine Min: "Concubine Min has a master in her hands, don't hide it, let him come up quickly." ”
Concubine Min waved her hand to the audience, and the eunuch in charge of the audience understood, and immediately flashed out of a way, and a big man in red strode up to the stage.
The big man walked to the center of the game and bowed to the distinguished guests around him. When Shi Li came to Yunyang's side, Yunyang saw his appearance clearly, this person is six feet tall, with a majestic body, a dark complexion, and although his facial features are ordinary, his eyes are firm and open, and his face is loyal, so that even if he sees him for the first time, he will be trusted.
