Chapter 67. Polo matches
Ergou was very happy that he could still see Man'er. The www.biquge.info of the pen and the fun and the pavilion did not hesitate to agree to any request she made.
"This ball is not played by one person. You can't just give him a ball. He can't play that way. And although this thing itself is rare, it is not valuable. ”
Man'er listened to Ergou's words, showing a look of loss.
Ergou hurriedly said: "Although it is not good to send a polo to His Royal Highness King Jin, you can send a team to him!" ”
"The team? What do you mean? At the same time, Man'er expressed Princess Jin's doubts.
"The second ball is a competitive game in which people are divided into two teams of four to ten people from each team who ride horses. The two teams wear different colors of clothing to distinguish them. Behind each team is the goal they need to guard, and if the opponent hits the ball into this goal, then the opponent gets a point. ”
"Oh. This is really a novelty, I've never heard of this gameplay! Princess Jin thought it was very interesting to hear.
Man'er didn't seem to understand, "Then let's do it!" Send a polo team! ”
"Okay, then I'll go and prepare!"
Sending a polo team is not so easy, you need horses and balls, and you need people who know how to polo. This is a significant expense in terms of finances. But Ergou has money. Especially if you have money to help Man'er!
The only thing he feared was that Man'er wouldn't be able to use his money.
After saying that, Princess Jin and Man'er returned to the palace. Along the way, Man'er looked very excited, "Your Highness will definitely like it!" ”
"It should ...... You'll love it! ”
Princess Jin doesn't know if King Jin will like it, but doesn't this sound similar to football in the 21st century? Send a football team? Is it good to let a prince ignore the government and play ball all day long? What will the emperor and queen think?
Speaking of which, King Jin will be the crown prince and the emperor in the future. It's a bit out of place to give this gift.
But seeing King Jin sullen all day long, she really couldn't bear it. And Man'er and Ergou are so enthusiastic. Then send it!
On King Jin's birthday, Ergou brought the team to Man'er as promised. Man'er handed it over to Princess Jin again.
Watching Princess Jin give the gift to King Jin, Man'er felt as if she had given it to King Jin herself. She already sees herself and Princess Jin as one person. What she wanted to give him, she lent the hand of Princess Jin to him. It's happiness to think about. Let's go on like this!
But having studied history as a child, she also knew that happiness was short-lived.
King Jin was very happy after seeing the game, and the emperor also felt very novel. The royals wanted to take part in a tournament themselves.
Looking at the young people who were eager to try, the emperor said that the children of the royal family formed their own teams and learned polo with these polo players. A month later, at King Qin's birthday party, everyone played a game together.
King Jin was thinking about who he wanted to team up with, and Yang Liang, the king of Han, walked over from the other side with a gentle smile.
"Second brother, now the prince in Chang'an is just the two of us, why don't we team up together?"
Before King Jin could speak, the emperor beside him was very happy when he heard this, "That's it, you two will practice as a team, and compete with other teams on your mother's birthday in the near future." ”
When King Jin heard his father say this, he had to nod his head in agreement. He was reluctant to fight in his heart, after all, this younger brother was many years younger than him. Although the two of them are both the emperor's favorite sons, in addition to their similar appearance, they have very different personalities and hobbies. So rarely play together.
Yang Liang, the king of Han, is still in Chang'an, because he has not yet reached the day of Yuanfu. Because of his young age, he was left in the palace by his parents and did not go to the place to take up his post. Because of his parents' love for King Jin, he has also liked King Jin very much since he was a child. often looks for opportunities to get close to King Jin, but always feels that there is a gap between them.
In fact, King Jin didn't want to be close to him. It's just that for King Jin, who is around 20 years old and has the world in mind, King Han's is still a child's hobby. He doesn't like to waste time with children.
This time, due to the order of his father, he had to play with him. I felt a lot of bitterness in my heart.
When the crown prince next to the emperor heard their conversation, he turned around and looked at King Jin's face and said, "Father, the son will also compete at that time!" ”
"Hahaha, good! Then prepare for the competition. When the time comes, I'll be waiting to see your wonderful performance. ”
King Jin just had a headache and his father stuffed his younger brother King Han to him, and now he has to compete with his eldest brother again. It's just exhausting.
There are many reasons why he doesn't want to compete against his eldest brother, the crown prince. The most important thing is that no matter what the result of playing against him, it is not good.
If King Jin dared to win, the prince would definitely feel uncomfortable in his heart. He is both a younger brother and a prince, and compared to his elder brother who is the crown prince, he can't be too strong in any case.
If King Jin loses, then he will also feel uncomfortable. In his experience, the prince is inferior to him in many games, and if he doesn't release the water, he should have won. But although you will be uncomfortable. Generally, he will deliberately lose to the prince, after all, it is better to feel uncomfortable than to set up a strong enemy.
The crown prince never seemed to see that King Jin was deliberately losing to him. Every time I win a game, I'm very happy. Because his parents like King Jin, every time he wins King Jin in a game, the prince will go out of his way to see his parents' expressions.
To his disappointment, although he won every time, his parents always looked at his younger brother Jin Wang. There was a smile of relief on his face.
This time, he definitely wants to win the king of polo hard. Although the King of Jin is superior to him in terms of strategy, poetry and songs, the prince thinks that he is much stronger than the King of Jin in terms of riding and archery. This polo and riding shooting should be the same kind of thing, and theoretically they will not lose to King Jin.
Looking at King Jin's sad face, the prince thought that he was afraid of losing as before.
After returning to the dormitory, Princess Jin looked at King Jin with a sad face and asked him what was wrong.
"The crown prince will play polo with the king on the birthday of the queen mother."
"Isn't that great? What makes His Royal Highness King Jin depressed? ”
King Jin raised his eyes and looked at Princess Jin's innocent face, "Hey, it's hard to say." ”
Princess Jin looked at him with slightly lowered eyes, and did not mean to explain again. No further questions were asked.
At this time, King Han ran in, with a sunny and clean smile on his fair and handsome face. King Jin looked at him and worried about him, so simple how to go to the place in the future.
"I've seen the royal brother and sister-in-law, and the younger brother was just about to discuss the formation of a team with the second brother, but the second brother disappeared in a blink of an eye. I thought about coming here to look for it, but I didn't expect to be found. ”
Princess Jin likes this Han King very much, and she often meets him when she goes to the queen to ask for peace. He always plays with Yang Zhao, the eldest son of King Jin, although he is also a song child, he is very conscious as an uncle. Yang Zhao also likes this little uncle very much.
