Chapter 734: The Honor of the Imperial Family?
If Su Ming was here, he would definitely find an old acquaintance in the box. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
In addition to Unigenhaya, another young oriental woman in the box looked more like a high school girl, with a cute and fresh little face, but there was a pride that could not be concealed, wearing a white suit with a blooming hibiscus embroidered on the collar.
Unikin had been in front of the screen in the box, manipulating the picture, using the cameras all over the stadium, as if looking for something.
"Found it." Unikin said suddenly.
Princess Haya shook her head and smiled helplessly at Unikin, but another young high school girl put her head up curiously, "Is he the one who offended you?" His Highness Unikin? ”
"That's this man!" Unikin tapped a guy on the screen who was drinking Coke with his slender fingers, who else could it be if it wasn't Su Ming?
"It looks ordinary, a Chinese man with an obscene appearance." The girls' high school grew up quite fresh, but what she said was very difficult to hear, her thin little eyebrows raised, and she whispered, "Sister Unikin, do you need me to teach him a lesson?" I brought the guards of the main palace......"
Unikin glanced back at Princess Haya and the senior female police officer sent by the Xiangjiang police to accompany them throughout the process, shook her head and said to the female high school student, "Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness Jiazi." But I'll do it in a righteous way. ”
Her Royal Highness Yoshiko snorted, but her tone obviously disagreed with Unikin's so-called 'above board'.
Unlike the British system, the Japanese Imperial Family, although it does not have legal powers, is more united and mysterious, retaining a set of exclusive institutions for the Imperial Family since ancient times, one of which is the 'bodyguards' who have been loyal to the Imperial Family for generations. Or rather, royal priests and ninjas.
There is no shortage of female emperors in the history of Japan, and it is not like Huaxia who excludes women from holding power, as Her Royal Highness the princess of Akishinomiya, one of the six palaces, this princess Yoshiko, who is like a high school student, has the power to call in the exclusive escort belonging to her father, Prince Akishinomiya.
In fact, this time when she came to Xiangjiang, among her entourage, there were several very powerful ninjas, of course, nominally security guards.
With the end of World War II, human society has entered an era of rapid development of civilization, and the royal families all over the world have ceased to hold power, or reformed, or abdicated, and have become national symbols. For example, in the kingdoms of Taixi, the king is only the nominal head of state, and although the nobles of all classes are still proud, they have accepted and become accustomed to this fact in their bones, and treat themselves as ordinary people.
The only thing that is different is Japan. The emperors of the world, even including the ancient Chinese emperors, are still 'people' after all, at most they say that they are the Son of Heaven and the spokesman of God, but in essence, they are still people. Ancient European kings, whether powerful or not, were at least nominally subject to the canonization of the Pope.
The Japanese Imperial Family, which regards itself as a 'god', has no surname in order to highlight the Godhead.
This can also be seen from the title. In the whole world, including the Queen of England, only 'Wang', translated into English, is king, and only Japan is called 'Emperor', which is still the emperor, and in the past, it is emperor.
All in all, most of the young children of the Japanese imperial family, and the children of the Western European royal family, are indeed different in concept, and they have superior blood in their bones.
The policewoman in the box saw the person on the screen who was pointed at by Uniking from a distance, and her eyes narrowed slightly.
It's him? When did he come to Xiangjiang? How did you meet Her Royal Highness the British Princess?
……
The group dressage show for the opening ceremony was held at the venue where the riders entered the arena and rode the horses to perform a variety of coherent standardized movements and skillfully transition to advanced footwork. The purpose of this is to test the obedience, docility, and modulation of the horse, and the horse's ability to respond to the rider's reins, feet, and mount support, as well as the coordination of the horse's actions.
The referee will give a score based on whether the rider and horse make the prescribed movements correctly and orderly, whether the man and horse are coordinated, and whether the horse is compliant and energetic. In the regular competition, there are three in total, the first two are the designated movements prescribed by the National Equestrian Federation, and the last one is the rider and the horse performing their own music and choreographed steps.
Because it is an opening ceremony performance rather than a formal competition, there is no designated action for individual performance, the horse racing action on the field is uniform, and the designated action performance is carried out gracefully, the jockey wears a gorgeous riding costume, a gentleman's and lady's style, calm and relaxed, graceful, the horse's fur is washed and brushed like satin, and the horse's hair is also combed with chic braids, which looks pleasing to the eye.
In the eyes of equestrian beginners, dressage is a high-level technique for riding horses, but in fact, on the contrary, dressage is the most test of horse driving skills, but it is the foundation of all equestrianism.
It seems that Xiangjiang fans are no strangers to Princess Anne, the leader of the field, and after the full house of the debut, the audience cheered and applauded the princess during the whole performance.
After the short and wonderful opening ceremony, the preliminary stage officially began.
A total of 32 preliminary horses, divided into four groups, each group to race, the top two in each group directly into the next round, in addition to these eight, the top eight in the total score to advance, sixteen horses for the second round, according to the results of the selection of the top 12, for the final.
That is, three rounds, 8, 8, 12 horses compete in the same field.
In the first round of the preliminary round, similar to the usual horse betting, the commentator first introduced the pedigree and performance of the 8 horses in this field, including the information of the horse owner.
This group is the favourite 'Blue Bay', a horse with a good pedigree and a well-known owner, who is a descendant of the Hejia family, the shipbuilder of the 80s, who runs a cruise business.
Su Ming's Great Happiness is also in this group, which is overshadowed, compared with the other seven horses that have a background and a pedigree, the Great Happiness does not have any advantages, so that when the narrator introduced it, it was only a passing one.
Hou Longtao was quite excited, so he went to the betting point and placed 2,000 yuan to buy the first place in Happy. Although the Longines Cup is a competition, the Jockey Club will certainly not let go of this opportunity and can still bet.
Su Ming can't bet anymore, first, he also knows the strength of Da Happy, and it is basically no fun to win the championship; Second, there is a gentleman's covenant with the horse club, and it is not appropriate to make money again.
"Hello, Mr. Su." A familiar but businesslike voice sounded from behind.
Looking back, I was stunned.
A young face, with a smart cockade, was expressionless--- strictly looking at himself coldly.
"Huh? madam? ”
It was He Baowen, who had not been seen for a long time, looking at the brochure on her uniform, Su Ming smiled and said, "Wow, you have been promoted?" Congratulations, there are probably few such young chief inspectors in the history of Xiangjiang. ”
It was He Baowen.
Su Ming saw that her face was not good, and immediately guessed the approximate reason: Anyway, people confessed last time, the better it is, the better they came to Xiangjiang at the end of the year to watch the horses together, but they came by themselves, but they didn't say hello, and now they are caught by her, and it is strange that she can be happy as a woman.
Su Ming originally didn't want to have more extraneous branches, even if he didn't prepare for anything, why bother to talk about this snack again, misleading others and himself. I didn't know I met it at the racecourse.
I was depressed and unlucky, but my eyes fell on He Baowen's three-star epaulettes, revealing an extremely amazing expression, and his tone was slightly exaggerated: "Wow, how long has it been since we last met, and you have actually been promoted to chief inspector?" I've been promoted three levels in a row. ”
The Heung Kong Police was named the best police officer in Asia, which is not unrelated to the huge police establishment, which has the highest proportion of police officers in Asia, and the police force is divided into the rank of commissioner, middle level and junior officer. The commissioner level is the real boss, and the superintendent of the inspector belongs to the middle level, and a senior inspector is already regarded as an upper-level figure in the police force, and the superintendent is at the upper level.
Female senior inspectors who are less than 30 years old are rare in the entire police force, and at this rate of promotion, it is not surprising that the superintendent and senior superintendent will not be in suspense in the future, and if she is lucky enough to be established as the image representative of the police force, it may not be impossible to enter the rank of commissioner.
He Baowen himself was obviously quite proud, and when he heard Su Ming say this, his face softened slightly, and he finally had a little smile.
"Mr. Xiang." She nodded and smiled at Long Wu on the side, which was regarded as a hello.
"How do you have time to watch the horse races today? Or is it dressed in a uniform? Su Ming's mind turned, and he smiled: "Could it be that you are in charge of the security of the horse farm?" ”
He Baowen shook his head, turned around and looked at a box on the other side, frowned and asked Su Ming, "Have you offended Princess Unikin?" ”
"Huh?" Su Ming was inexplicable, what princess? At the opening ceremony just now, I saw a princess, Princess Anne. But Lao Tzu knows her, she doesn't know Lao Tzu.
As for what the hell Princess Unikin, it's a ghost again?
Hou Longtao was stunned on the side, when the cold-faced female police officer looked for Su Ming just now, he was startled. The police rank in the mainland is slightly different from that of Xiangjiang, but he is not blind, He Baowen has so many flowers on his shoulders, he knows at a glance that he is not a small role, he comes from the mainland, and he is more or less naturally afraid of the police.
Hearing the other party mention the princess again, Hou Longtao was even more speechless, looked at Su Ming, and thought that this guy had only been in Xiangjiang for a few days, first the old boy, followed by the Jockey Club, and now it's okay, even the princess has been offended.
It's exciting.
Long Wu asked expressionlessly, "Princess Unikin is in the box over there?" As he spoke, he explained: "The seventh in line to the throne of the United Kingdom." ”
"What the hell is going on?" Su Ming asked Hou Longtao.
"I don't know what's going on, the police force sent me to be responsible for the safety of the four princesses throughout the whole process. Her Royal Highness Princess Unigene has heard that you are a horse racing expert and invites you to bet. ”
"Wait! How did you become four princesses again? ”
Several people present, including He Baowen, were now confused, and even He Baowen couldn't figure out what the situation was, but just conveyed the 'battle book' in the box over there: That Unijin Duke and Su Ming had a one-on-one bet in the next game.
This kind of gambling is purely a game between private individuals, and the willingness of both parties is not illegal, and it has nothing to do with the Jockey Club, but I don't know why the other party took the initiative to choose Su Ming.
Hou Longtao tugged at Su Ming's sleeve and said, "I don't know what the other party is going to do, be careful of deception." simply ignore her, I haven't heard that there are still people who force people to gamble. "I made a lot of money last time, and Hou Longtao always felt that Ma would not give up, and it was better not to make extraneous branches at this time.
"Of course." He Baowen nodded on the side: "If you don't agree, even the Queen of England can't do anything." And personally, I advise you not to say yes. ”
"Why?" Su Ming asked.
"The overall equestrian level of the British royal family is the highest in the world, and Unikin is one of the best, and her level of horsework is not below that of Princess Anne, who led the performance just now." He Baowen said.
Su Ming looked at Long Wu, and Long Wu said: "Betting on horses with the British, especially the British royal family, is certainly not a wise move. However, no one dares to say that there is a 10% chance of winning such a thing as betting on horses, and what about the British royal family? It's up to you. ”
Su Ming thought about it and smiled at He Baowen: "Then bet." ”
He also wanted to know what kind of medicine the princess was selling.
……
In the shouts and cheers of thousands of spectators, the preliminaries were carried out as scheduled, and under the unknown water, another game of gambling also kicked off.
As it turned out, betting on a horse with an animal trainer was never a wise choice, and after three races, the self-confident Lord Unigen was stunned to find that he had become a pauper.
After losing all 120,000 pounds, there is no money left to spare this year, not even enough money to repair the car.
It's not that there is no money, but she is also a royal princess, with a fixed property in her name, plus the royal family's quota funds, she will not be so poor that she will go bankrupt at 120,000 pounds.
However, the remaining money is to be used for the maintenance of various industries, continued investment, labor expenditures, and so on.
Just like a college student, 1,000 yuan a month for living expenses, of which 700 yuan may be used to eat and buy water, which is necessary for living, and the remaining 300 can be used for pocket money at will.
If the pocket money is gone, if you continue to gamble, you can only use the 'living expenses'.
Unikin is very depressed, today's luck is extremely bad, three times in a row, he actually bet on all the wrong treasures?!
Princess Haya shook her head, not squeaking. Betting on horses was originally based on luck.
In fact, in any gambling, in the case of not cheating, the importance of luck must be higher than technology, and only when there is not much difference in luck, can we talk about technology.
Unikin previously analyzed his opponent's record in detail, believing that his opponent's skills were mediocre, and it was nothing more than luck to win the jackpot, so he was full of certainty.
But in the casino, I am afraid that such a person is lucky, and the God of Wealth is possessed, and nothing can stop it.
Haya's age and experience are far beyond Unikin's, and she sees things more thoroughly, but the young Princess Yoshiko is the opposite, and she is surprised to see Unikin deflated again and again.
Young girls always have something in common, such as arrogance, seeing the defeat of Unikin, who also has an aristocratic status, Kako said unhappily: "Sister Unigin, we can't let a commoner defeat it, this is related to the honor of the royal family!" (To be continued.) )
