Chapter Eighty-Seven: The Lion's Skull
Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info Wu Zhao looked back at the Qing Si Courtyard, and walked forward, how to choose the future Now think about why bother, no one knows what will happen in the future, all we can do is to do our best, and then quietly wait for the arrival of fate......
The days passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye, the autumn hunt began, Wu Zhao was dressed in a red palace costume, holding a plate of tea steadily, and placed it in front of all the princes, concubines and others one by one......
At this moment, everyone is engrossed in staring at the field, everyone knows very well that this is not only a competition on horseback but also a manifestation of a country's military strength, this game, Li Shimin attaches great importance to it, if the victory can play a role in deterring foreign races, it can ensure the peace of the border for several years, if it is defeated, the prestige of the Celestial Empire is not to mention for the time being, once their military strength is exposed, the other party is likely to take advantage of the situation!
So, you can only win, not lose!
Li Shimin's face was calm, his eyes were blazing and he looked at the audience, and a slight smug smile appeared on his face, as long as he won one more game, he could win this game! Although the victory or defeat is now decided, the dignity of the Heavenly Khan does not allow for a single defeat!
The commander waved the command flag, and the two horses rushed out like arrows off the string, and only saw a blurred figure as fast as they saw that they were getting closer and closer to the finish line, and everyone's eyes were focused on the racetrack! Wu Zhao's eyes fell on Li Zhi's body at this time, and he saw Li Zhi's eyes locked on the field, his beautiful thin lips pursed tightly, it seemed that he also cared about this game......
Wu Zhao's eyes fell on the red rope at the end of the line, and he saw two horses driving side by side, reaching the end at the same time! Draw! Wu Zhao looked at Li Shimin's scene, and saw that Li Shimin's face was slightly unhappy, obviously in Li Shimin's opinion, all he could accept was victory, even if it was a draw, it was not acceptable to him!
Wu Zhao then looked at Li Zhi, only to see Li Zhi lowering his eyes as if he was thinking about something......
At this time, the foreign khan smiled proudly, and slightly signaled to the foreign prince standing beside him, only to see the prince nod, walked to the middle, bowed to Li Shimin and said, "Meet the heavenly khan!" The warriors of the Celestial Empire are indeed brave! Saying that, he motioned to his subordinates to lead the horse up, and said: "This is a newly captured high-quality horse, called Lion Skull, but unfortunately this horse is extremely strong, no one can tame it, and now this horse is dedicated to the Heavenly Khan, hoping that there will be warriors in the Heavenly Empire who can tame this horse!" ”
Li Shimin carefully looked at the lion skull under the stage, the lion skull was black and four hooves stepping on the snow, the muscles were strong, very powerful, Li Shimin raised his jaw, and the warrior was ordered to step forward to try to tame the lion skull, but they were all thrown down......
After doing this four or five times, Li Shimin's face also became a little ugly, Li Shimin turned his gaze to his son, Li Tai has always been good at writing, so there is only Li Zhi, but Zhi'er's ability is not enough to tame the lion, this lion is too strong, even if he tries it himself, he may not be sure, Li Shimin looked at Li Zhi quietly, his face was gloomy and about to drip water, and the field was very silent for a while......
The foreign prince can also Khan glanced at each other, with a smug smile on the corner of his mouth, this Celestial Empire is nothing more than that!
Seeing this, Li Tai smiled lightly, looking at Li Zhi with a good look, Li Zhi looked at the scene under the stage, this horse is so fierce that he is afraid that he will not be able to bargain if he goes up by himself, but now it is a dead end, his father intends to let himself play but he does not have the ability to surrender the lion skull, but there is no one to try on the scene, no! There is also the father, but if he fails, there is still room for turnaround, and if the father loses the game, I am afraid that he will completely lose face......
Wu Zhao quietly observed everything on the field, thinking quickly in his head......
Seeing that Li Zhi was about to get up, Wu Zhao rushed to the front of the saint, bowed steadily, and said: "The emperor is blessed, today is the autumn hunt, and the slave maid also wants to be a little happy, this foal slave and maid have a way to surrender, I want to give it a try!" If the slave and maid method is good, I hope the emperor will reward the slave and maid with a good fortune! ”
Li Tai looked at Wu Zhao, he wanted to see Li Zhi out of trouble, how could he let this little woman easily destroy it, and said in a deep voice: "You have no way to be a woman, go down, don't make trouble here, and let the ninth brother come!" ”
Wu Zhao was not in a hurry and saluted Li Tai and said: "What His Royal Highness King Wei said is very true, the slave maid is shallow, and he must be inferior to the Nine Princes Heroic and Brave, but this is just a horse, where can the Nine Kings be used?" Or do you have any good ideas......
Speaking of this, Wu Zhaowan smiled, and for a while, the thousands of ** behind him also lost their color......
Li Tai looked at Wu Zhao, such a bright smile he had seen in Shun'er back then, but now there is a little more scheming in this smile, not as pure as back then......
Li Tai hid a trace of frustration in his eyes, looked at Li Zhi with a slight smile and said: "Since the girl has a method, this king wants to see the girl's tricks!" It's just that I don't know ...... ninth brother."
Li Zhi glanced at Li Tai, turned his head to look at Wu Zhao, a trace of anxiety appeared on his face, he didn't know what Li Tai meant in his heart, but this horse was so fierce, he couldn't be hurt in her, God had already used another way to let himself be lost! I must hold it firmly this time!
Li Zhi stood up calmly and saluted Li Shimin steadily: "Father, let the sons come!" ”
Wu Zhao looked at Li Zhi and understood the anxiety in his eyes, and there was a hint of affection between his eyes......
Wu Zhao quietly looked at Li Zhi's eyes, lightly opened his lips and said to Li Zhi: "The slave and maid thank the prince for taking care of him, but I also ask the prince to let it be fulfilled!" ”
Li Zhi looked at Wu Zhao, his eyes flashed with a little eagerness, and he said quite quickly: "You're just a woman, it's just a girl, it's better to retreat!" How good is this wonderful day because you are stained with blood! ”
Li Shimin looked at Wu Zhao with great interest, looking at her firm eyes as if he had seen Yang Ning back then......
Wu Zhao looked at Li Zhi firmly and said: "The prince is kind, and he can't bear to hurt the life of the slave and maid, but please also believe in the slave and maid, and he will be fortunate not to be dishonored!" ”
Li Zhi quietly looked at the firmness in Wu Zhao's eyes, and the scenes of the year all came to mind for a while, I know you can't bear it! Back then, she believed in herself so firmly, and she didn't hesitate to gamble with her life, she won that time! Win your heart!
But in the end, I finally endured it, and I couldn't bear to push her to my eldest brother's side with my own hands, and I couldn't bear to tear my heart apart, and I achieved the pain of my life......
Perhaps she couldn't forget the day she would rather fall to the bottom of a cliff than walk with herself, but when she learned to let go of herself......
She was so reluctant to leave herself, she also looked at herself with such expectant eyes, hoping that she would take her away, but she finally failed her......
Shun'er, I'm sorry, I finally failed you, but this apology, you will never know in this life......
