For a time, the drums thundered, the high platform was removed, and a goal of about three zhang Xu was erected in front of the hall. More than 10 people from the white brocade team led by Zhao Zhen and more than 10 people from the green brocade team led by Lu Yijian entered at the same time.

At this time, there are palace people who whistle and sound drums, wave flags left and right, and order the game to start.

Zhao Zhen has a tacit understanding with Hehe, while Fan Zhongyan, like a fine work arranged by the Qingjin Yi team, always bumps into or trips the people of the team. Less than half a pillar of incense at the beginning of the game, most of the Confucian students selected by Zhao Zhen's team from the palace examination were physically exhausted, and they were all panting and barely walking around the field. Fan Zhongyan was even worse, grabbing his ankles and sitting on the ground, he didn't even touch the juju, and his legs were already cramping.

Liu Congguang was most disgusted with weak scholars, asked for a recess, and ran over to scold Fan Zhongyan.

In contrast, Zhao Zhen, Qinghe Junwang, Su Jihe, and Liu Congguang are young and handsome, with strong postures, and they are as dazzling as pearls in the scorching sun. Originally, only the Maiko Palace people were shouting and screaming on the sidelines, but gradually, the concubines, princesses, and children of the family under the tent couldn't hold back, and they talked loudly about the four of them regardless of etiquette.

The lady in green who danced on the high platform before was sitting alone in the corner at this time, pouring herself a drink, staring intently at the Keju field. A palace maid came over and bowed to her, "Second lady Lu, the queen invites you to the back hall for a gathering." ”

Lu Qiqi wondered in her heart, what did the queen do with her? She was arrogant and presumptuous at home on weekdays, but at this time she didn't dare to disobey the queen's orders, so she got up and followed the palace maid to the apse.

Moran entered with a kettle and a tea bowl to add water to Zhao Zhen, he had completely lost his prestige at this time, neither oppressed others with his status as an emperor, nor did he deliberately lower his posture, but like a real companion, he high-fived and cheered when he scored a goal, and complained if he didn't score. He took the tea bowl and drank it all, and then filled it with water and handed it to the Confucian scholars to drink.

The scorching sun was shining, and Zhao Zhen was sweating profusely, sweating more than drinking water. Mo Lan took out a brocade handkerchief from his sleeve and wanted to help him wipe his sweat, but he held it in the air, and he felt that it was inappropriate, and he felt that the palace ministers and harem concubines were all looking at it, how could she be a first-class female official who was qualified to serve the official's family.

When he was hesitating, he only heard Zhao Zhen smile and said, "You can help me wipe my sweat." ”

His demeanor was natural, and there seemed to be a cluster of flames shining in his eyes, burning with light. Moran was no longer ashamed, and raised a handkerchief to help him carefully wipe the sweat on his forehead and neck. His body smelled of sweat, but it smelled good, which was the lively atmosphere of a young man.

From beginning to end, Zhao Zhen was smiling and upright.

It was Moran, whose cheeks were red, like smoke.

The game really won with the green brocade team led by Lu Yijian, although Zhao Zhen lost, he still felt happy, and gave the winner a silver silk brocade as a reward, and punished himself with three cups. The Confucian students were too weak to win, but they also tried their best during the game, without fear, and did not taboo Lu Yijian's power, which made Zhao Zhen quite pleased. He also felt that the Confucian scholars only stayed at their desks on weekdays to prepare for exams, and most of them were prone to illness and weakness, so he advised them to shoot arrows and practice martial arts to strengthen their bodies.

Lu Qiqi was led to the side hall by the queen's palace people in the afternoon, but she didn't see the queen, and when it was time for dinner, someone brought exquisite food, and the palace people were polite, but they didn't let her go out. suffered Lu Yijian and looked for her for a long time, for fear that she would cause trouble for no reason, and he didn't dare to drink to his heart's content even after winning the game.

The dinner party is the heart of the queen mother, to the time of the lamp, then give another delicacies, a number of dance music, and ordered the palace people to set off firecrackers and fireworks on the tower of the Qianyuan Gate, and put Kong Ming lanterns in the Xuande Palace. There are courtiers who play the pipa, or play the piano, or dance alone, just to show their sideburns in front of the officials, in order to capture the king's heart.
