Chapter 64: The Show Begins

The flower of Lin'an, once every three years, is unprecedented.

And these days, the royal family is especially busy.

Even the deposed and degraded son was invited out to accompany Tian Qiniang to participate in various celebrations, a scene of mother-in-law and filial piety.

The Flower of Lin'an is a festival for the whole people, but for these high-level nobles, this beauty contest is just an opportunity, a platform, and a gathering for display and exchange.

On this day, Qi Jun held a big banquet and summoned the envoys of the princes and local officials who came to Qi Chaohe, and this banquet was called the "Lin'an Glass Banquet", and the people who were invited to participate were honored and were a symbol of identity and status.

During the glazed banquet, the palace dancers perform large-scale court dances, musicians play large-scale court music, monarchs and ministers rejoice, friends play together, singing and dancing are peaceful, and the world is peaceful and prosperous.

During the banquet, after the shortlisted women pass guò their own beauty, singing and dancing, literary and other aspects of the display, voted by the people during the banquet, only more than two-thirds of the votes can be elected as the new "Flower of Lin'an", this democratic selection is excellent, but it is difficult to get the majority support, because most of the shortlisted women are people of different factions, and the votes of the nine directors are scattered, which is also the reason for the vacancy of "Lin'an Flower" for many years.

For this year's "Flower of Lin'an" selection, most of them are not hopeful, and it should be another vacant session. I am full of interest in the finale of the Keju Competition, because this year's White Horse Team has a fight, and the white flowers are a bald Taoist priest, which must be a beautiful scenery.

Out of the grand event, there is also a Taoist festival, Tian Qiniang believes in Taoism, reuses Taoism, and uses Taoism to suppress the Confucianism that Jiang Qi believes, which is of course a great opportunity for Taoism to rise again, but once it fails, it may also bring disaster to Taoism. Although Confucianism is a literati scholar who has no power to restrain the chicken, it is black and spicy when it comes to pagan people, and it will not be soft at all.

Therefore, although this Taoist puja is a grand occasion, there is an undercurrent surging underneath.

When the various grand events arrived in the afternoon, they were basically held, and then the Qi Guoda Keju began.

Outside the Honglong Palace, hundreds of civil and military officials and envoys from various countries gathered together.

Invited officials who like to admire Keju are scattered around the stadium to watch. At this time, the customs, whether it is the concubines in the palace or the female relatives of the people, do not shy away from meeting outsiders, so many concubines and concubines are also crowded in it.

"Auntie, go change your clothes, I'm going to bow in a while." Mrs. Mu got up suddenly and said to Tian Qiniang. On the other side, Pei Kun also bowed and said, "Your Majesty, the little gentleman and the princess will step back together." ”

"Good! Hehe, for three years in a row, this Keju is the only leader of the Chu State, but this year is different, Ah Xuan is not Ming, a blockbuster, I have already assured me, Taiping, Xiao Xuanzi, you two must cheer up, don't be on this Keju, and let the Chu State run rampant! ”

"My daughter must do her best!"

Mrs. Mu said, Ying Ying bowed, and left with Pei Kun. Tian Qiniang patted the handrail with great interest, and happily got up and said, "Move to the front, the old woman wants to watch the battle in person!" ”

The Keju venue has been arranged for a long time, the singing organizer (referee) and other personnel have been in place, and on both sides of the venue, the members of the Hakubakan team and the Ouchi team who have changed their clothes are moving their bodies and preparing to enter.

In previous years, only the Ouchi team could compete with the Chu team in this event, and no one else even wanted to participate in this competition.

Not to mention anything else, just the two teams of people in this game, on one side is a bald Taoist priest in an earthy yellow military uniform, and on the other side is a group of emerald jackets and green pants with foggy eyebrows, this scene is enough to see.

As for the Chu national team, they were preparing from afar, looking at this special group of teams coldly and arrogantly: Taoist priests and Gong'e.

Yao'er and Shen Renzui had already made an analysis of the strength of the Da Nei team, and although the wild Taoist warriors of Baimaguan had gone through some hard training, it was impossible for them to win at all if they fought against the first strong team of Daqi all at once. What's more, there is a stronger Chu team, which is the main enemy, and the brothers are outside the wall to resist their humiliation.

Therefore, before the competition, they set the strategy for this Keju competition: winning, it must belong to someone else. However, on a personal level, it is necessary to praise Shen people for being drunk. In the whole game, in the end, the strength of the Chu team was consumed, and the Ouchi team won, and if Shen Ren's outstanding performance can leave an indelible impression, it will be enough to suppress the opponent's limelight, and Mu Shangxuan will not feel that he has lost face.

The tone of the whole game was set, Yao'er, Shen Renzui, and Tiannuo were the three main attackers, and the remaining seven people, led by Xuan Er, defended with all their might, and at the same time created a qiē scoring opportunity for Shen Renzui. In the end, even if the other team wins, it is still their person who scores the most goals.

The stars hold the moon only for this one person!

I have to say that when the overall strength is not as good as others, their idea is still very smart.

There is a high platform in front of the stadium, which has naturally become a viewing stage for many dignitaries and powerful concubines. The red felt had already been paved on the high platform, and a fence was added on three sides, only the side facing the bow field was released, and Tian Qiniang and the second son Su sat in the middle.

However, everyone only looks at Tian Qiniang, Gongzi Su is completely an ornament, everyone knows that although he is Tian Qiniang's sister-in-law, this country is no longer surnamed Jiang, but Tian, so no one takes him in their eyes.

This theoretically the most noble person in Daqi except for Tian Qi Niang is also very conscious, probably because of the bloody reality that his brother Gongzi Lan and many Jiang Qi clans were killed frightened him, he is humble and tame, he is a little unspeakable, every moment, he is paying attention to his mother's face, Tian Qi Niang will never dare to sit if he does not sit, Tian Qi Niang will never speak, he will never dare to say a word first, that kind of cautious demeanor is not even as casual as a used maid by Tian Qi Niang's side.

Such a mother and son can be regarded as a wonder in the world, although it is said that the princely family has no family affection, but in front of the subjects, face work must always be done, but in front of this mother and son, they don't even bother to act. The eldest prince has been killed by Qi Niang, and the third prince is in exile in Yan Kingdom, and seeing the appearance of this second prince, those ministers who are loyal to Jiang Qi can't help but be even more depressed.

Back in the field.

In the past few years, there have always been only three teams that are eligible to participate in the Keju competition: the Chu State Team, the Yan State Team and the Datang Internal Guard.

Due to the fact that Gongzi Shang fled to Yan Kingdom, the relationship with Daqi was relatively tense, and it had been a long time since they had communicated with each other, and it was impossible to participate in Keju at this time.

The participation of the White Horse View cannot be said to be a bad thing, because the opponents of the competition are selected by lot, and they have a one-in-half chance of drawing the Chu State team, so as to play a game for the internal guard team first and consume the opponent's body. If the internal guard team is drawn, although the competition of his own family will not be too miserable, I am afraid that this year's champion will be that Chu barbarian again.

Chu people are wild, and every year in the bow competition, there is always no shortage of internal guards who have broken their heads and bled and fallen to the ground injured.

The draw results are out, the first game: White Horse Guan Team vs. Chu Guo Team!
