Chapter 243: That
"Miss?"
Hearing Ye Jingshu's words, the personal maid who was trembling and kneeling on the ground watching Ye Jingshu smash things raised her head in amazement, "...... you mention this?"
"I just remembered it suddenly," Ye Jingshu stared at the torn porcelain on the ground, and a smile of unknown meaning suddenly appeared on the corner of her mouth.
"Vanilla," she asked with interest, suddenly staring at the maid on the ground, "I remember that you have an older brother who broke his leg while playing polo?" ”
The maid kneeling on the ground trembled, and her face suddenly turned a little pale.
"Yes......" the little maid said with fear in her eyes, "At that time, the eldest prince did not have enough people to play polo, and he once let the slave's brother go up to the top to make up the ......"
A hint of pain appeared in the little girl's eyes, polo is a game of the family, and ordinary people can't afford to play it. However, her brother is the horse boy of Ye Siyuan, the eldest son of the Ye family, and although he is a slave, he can also ride a horse. As a member of a family, Ye Siyuan likes to play polo with his friends in private, and once he didn't have enough people, and forced his brother to play to make up the numbers.
And in that polo game, his eldest brother fell from his horse in the collision between the two sides and broke his leg. The few money that the Ye family rewarded was not enough to buy medicine, and now she is still lying in bed, and she heard Lang Zhong say that even if she can survive, her eldest brother's leg will be useless, and she can only be a cripple in this life.
"The group of cultivators...... What a sin! ”
The little girl bit her lip tightly, and the faint sigh of the old man and the sound of her mother crying bitterly to her brother appeared in her ears.
"Let you be reckless! Just pretend to be sick! I have to play polo! ”
"Is that something that we poor people can play with? That's a man-eating thing! ”
Polo is a cannibalistic thing.
At the beginning, those boys broke her brother's leg in the collision on purpose.
Just for the so-called thrill.
The little maid raised her head tremblingly, looking at Ye Jingshu in front of her, but she seemed to remember something good, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
"Yes, someone broke his leg," Ye Jingshu didn't know what she was thinking, and actually smiled sweetly, "It is said that the battlefield sword has no eyes, and speaking of this polo field, it is common for people to fall from a horse and break their legs." ”
That's right, it's a common thing.
However......
Looking at the young lady with a sweet smile in front of her, the little maid kneeling on the ground only felt a chill rise from her spine.
"Miss......"
"Vanilla, go out and find someone to prepare a carriage, I want to go back to the house." Ye Jingshu, who was originally angry, suddenly calmed down for some reason and looked at her.
"Going home?" The little girl was stunned.
Ye Jingshu stayed happily in the Southern Chu National Teacher's Mansion, and rarely wanted to return to the Ye family.
"Big Brother Siyuan is going to play tomorrow, and the nobles in Danyang City are waiting to see his Ye family's son-in-law, how can my sister not go back to see him so that she can cheer him up," Ye Jingshu said with a smile.
"Good...... Slave maid, slave maid will go ......" The little maid stood up with her head bowed. However, in front of her, Ye Jingshu couldn't wait to walk towards the door.
The heavy rain was still falling outside, but Ye Jingshu looked extremely excited, which was very different from the way she was still losing her temper at the last moment.
However, looking at the woman's elated back, the maid Vanilla shivered for some reason.
"Vanilla, you say ......"
And at this moment, Ye Jingshu, who was standing by the threshold, suddenly turned her head and looked at her with a sweet smile.
"Thousands of empty alleys, everyone is sought after, this polo can really be in the limelight if it is played well," Ye Jingshu stretched her voice, "It's just ......"
The woman smiled meaningfully.
"This polo is not something that anyone can play, do you say?"
The little girl shivered faintly, clenched her fists at her sides, lowered her head and replied.
"Yes."
……
……
The rain in Nanchu was falling fast and urgently, but no matter how big the rain curtain was, it couldn't stop the transmission of the news.
Tomorrow is the day when the second round of the Elementary Ceremony begins, and after three days of waiting, the entire Danyang City is suppressing its restlessness.
And with this heavy rain, the people of Nanchu, who were originally looking at the list of cultivators in the teams of various countries that will appear tomorrow with the gossip in their hands, gained a new surprise in the winery tea shop.
Throughout the ages, compared to other competitions, exciting and lively ball games have been the most popular among the public.
Compared with the first round of the primary ceremony, which ordinary people can't see or understand, the second round of the primary ceremony polo match has always been the climax of the elementary ceremony.
It is the favorite round of the people.
Even if it only starts tomorrow, the major gambling houses have already hung up gambling signs, and people gather in the wine shop to discuss tomorrow's game.
"Nan Chu's side, it really still depends on Ye Gongzi, Ye Gongzi's own polo team has been playing well before......"
"Huo Gongzi of the former Qin also formed a polo team before, but he was beaten by the Ye family."
"Hey, what do the former Qin people know about polo, this second round is not something that can be won by opportunism!"
"Speaking of strength, which country can win the Northern Wei Dynasty...... The legs of the Northern Wei people seem to grow on horses! ”
"There is no suspense that the first place is the Northern Wei Dynasty, the question is who the second place will be. Houliao has not been able to do it in the past few years, and there is still hope for our Nanchu this year......"
"But this year, the stepson of the Northern Wei Dynasty has small arms and legs, I don't know if I can't do it......"
And in the crowd of people talking about polo, other voices sounded from time to time.
"Regardless of whether you can play polo or not, according to the stepson of the Northern Wei Dynasty, I heard that she was taken by the princess of the former Qin, and that little white face was ......"
"Are you serious? Anyway, the former princess Qin didn't have any other skills......"
"No...... Ay? ”
"What are those people talking about?"
The people who were drinking and flushed were excited about the romance that came out of the first round of the primary ceremony, but while they were discussing, many people looked at the new gossip in their hands and opened their eyes in shock.
Looking at the note in his hand, the name of the former Qin princess who had no skills in their mouths just now appeared.
"Woman...... Want to play in tomorrow's polo battle? ”
"Former Princess Qin, got the appearance quota?"
"Is the former Qin stepson crazy? Actually let a woman ...... Woman...... The former Qin princess won six people in a row? ”
"Won all? Won the challenge? ”
People scolded and laughed, but gradually looked at the news in their hands and fell silent.
And at this moment, the city gate in the distance suddenly opened, and under the narrowing rain curtain, a group of young men on horseback galloped in.
The people in Danyang City know them, and it is a tradition for cultivators to go out of the city to practice before the start of the second round of battles.
But at this time, looking at the young men returning from the night and the people crowded in front of the windows of the teahouses and restaurants on the street, their expressions were a little complicated.
Especially when I saw Qianqin's team.
The young men who were excited to go out of the city in the morning were in a trance at this time, as if they had been hit by a huge blow, and the onlookers were in a trance.
And in the next moment, behind Qianqin's horse team, a simple carriage slowly drove in.
After seeing the carriage, the people on the street who were originally in a trance were shocked, and their eyes became complicated.
The noisy streets fell silent, and people watched the carriage with mixed expressions.
Just because of that carriage.
It has the emblem of the Southern Chu State Division.
