Chapter 4: Fortune (1)
After the Cold Food Festival, the weather is mild. My women's polo team has been able to compete in a decent way, and in order to avoid the "chess addicts" chasing and intercepting, I almost every day after breakfast, I pulled my tea and went straight to the racecourse.
Zhang Xianru saw that day that I led the concubine Gong'e to practice in the racecourse, and she was interested and fighting again, and she also asked Li Yanniang to gather the concubines who would ride horses and play ball in Yingxian Palace for training. Even Yuefu was pulled to practice together.
Within a few days, Li Yanniang actually brought Zhang Xianru to my Changchun Palace to write a war letter. I didn't want to entangle with the two of her, but I imagined that she was arrogant, and she was really unwilling, and she couldn't stand Ming'er's blind begging, so I had to invite Bao Yuan to be notarized, and I was scheduled to have a competition with them in three days.
On that day, the men's competition started first in "Bow (1)".
Bao Yuan brought Wang Zhaoyuan, Han Baozhen and a group of close ministers as a team, and on the other side, Ren Cao led a team of princes and nobles such as Ren Zhen and Ren Yu.
The two teams wore different colors, the first team of Baoyuan wore silver short-sleeved robes, and the first team of Rencao wore red short-sleeved robes, both of which wore black palace boots.
Bao Yuan rode the purple horse first, waved the glaive cane to greet the field, the drums sounded in unison, the two teams of centaurs rushed out, held the brocade box, took out the colored ball and threw it in front of the royal horse, and sang loudly: "The royal team hits the east gate." Bao Yuan lightly stretched his ape arm, leaned over to hit the ball, and the game began.
I saw that the court was covered with light hooves, the blood was excited, and the dazzled eyes were really "Yule Thousand Golden Horses, Seven Treasure Balls with Carved Texts." Fei Fei was shocked, and Fu Fen felt the star stream. ”
Baoyuan's team is mostly military generals, and it is a royal team, so it naturally wins.
Suddenly, the drums on the field thundered, the flags fluttered, and the audience applauded. Baoyuan was happy to congratulate him with wine, and Rencao took the lead in raising a glass and shouting long live. Precisely:
The enshrinement leader did not dare to fight, and the name of the minister was called on the shed.
The insiders drank wine before announcing it, and immediately shouted long live.
When Bao Yuan dismounted and returned to the throne, I had already led my team to appear from the east gate, and Zhang Xianru also led his troops to enter from the west gate.
Today I am dressed in a white Uighur horse suit, with silver boots, and all the people in the palace are white. Looking up, Zhang Xianru and his team were all wearing purple shirts.
Bao Yuan personally beat the drum for us.
Twenty horses galloped out, and the women struck each other with their sticks in hand.
I galloped ball by ball, and seeing that the opponent's defense in front of the goal was weak, I leaned over and struck hard, and the colored ball flew into the east gate like an electric switch.
In the stands, Bao Yuan was overjoyed, beat the drum three times in a row, and had scored a goal. In an instant, the women of the Changchun Hall on the field cheered, and I raised the ball handle to greet Bao Yuan with a smile.
Looking back, I saw Zhang Xianru's little face flushed and bit her lip to glare at me, seeing her like this, I was happy in my heart, and deliberately raised my eyebrows to provoke.
Then the battle on the field became more and more intense, I didn't expect Zhang Xianru to be so strong on the court, and her riding skills were good, and she secretly sighed and remembered that her father and brother were both martial arts practitioners, and they thought that they had obtained the true inheritance.
Look at Li Yanniang again, her riding skills are not very good, but there are a lot of small movements. It's annoying to have been interfering with me all the way since I started playing. Fortunately, Jinyan's subordinates are not weak, and Ming'er is actively competing, so our side will not be defeated.
The sand and dust are flying on the field, graceful moth eyebrows, and the ball is chasing.
Towards the end of the game, the two teams were even hotter, the ball rolled between the hooves, and Li Yanniang tried to take advantage of the chaos to sneak attack me several times, but was found and destroyed by Jinyan.
Now the ball is falling in my hand, I swing the ball forward, Zhang Xianru chased up from the oblique side, when the two horses leaned together, I heard her suddenly: "Sister knows that the emperor did not stay in the Chongguang Palace last night." ”
"What?" There was a trance in his heart, his arm trembled slightly, and when he came back to his senses, he saw Zhang Xianru snatching the colored ball in his hand. She smiled: "Thank you! "Turn around and hit the ball with Li Yanniang.
Seeing that the colored ball was snatched, I was anxious, and I was about to chase after it, but I saw Ming'er and Jinyan hitting Yanniang left and right.
Then how Li Yanniang was Jinyan's opponent, she was robbed and killed by Jinyan in three or two clicks, and perfectly snatched the ball back.
I was about to cheer, but I saw Li Yanniang hit Jinyan's horse's belly with a club, and the horse stood up in pain, almost throwing Jinyan off the horse. Li Yanniang's trick succeeded, regained the ball, dodged around Ming'er, and went straight to our penalty area, I saw this and galloped, wanting to stop the robbery halfway, but I didn't want to be trapped by Zhang Xianru.
said that it was too late, it was fast, a good tea, and he caught up, and after a short time, he clinged to Li Yanniang and walked together. I saw that she pretended to grab the ball, but kicked Li Yanniang's leg violently. That Li Yanniang's body shook, the colored ball was out of control, Ming'er grabbed the ball and hit it horizontally, and the ball rolled to the midfield.
Seeing that the color ball was out of control, the two sides of the crowd rose up and grabbed it, and in the melee, only someone could hear an exclamation: "Be careful." ”
When I turned around, I saw Ming'er leaning back and taking off the reins. I was horrified, if I fell like this, I would be trampled on by that hoove...... wanted to save her, but it was too late, and she was at a loss, but when she saw Yuefu approaching, she leaned sideways and held Ming'er with her hand and pushed her back. Seeing that Ming'er was out of danger, her heart fell, and she didn't want Yuefu to get off the reins and roll off immediately......
All of a sudden, there was chaos on and off the field.
"Xuan Imperial Doctor! Hurry up and announce the imperial doctor! I shouted, turned over and dismounted, and ran towards Yuefu. Yuefu seemed to have broken her leg, and blood oozed from the ankle bone of her right foot, looking at Yuefu in her arms, her face became more and more pale, and my heart sank inch by inch. But she was still biting her lip and forbearing, but she didn't cry out the pain, but the bean-sized sweat particles had already soaked her forehead. Ming'er beside her had already cried into tears, hurrying and saying sorry words.
When the imperial doctor arrived, Yuefu was already in a trance, and I was about to carry her into the car, I wanted to get up and follow, but Baoyuan took me by his side and said, "Rui'er, don't go, it'll be fine." ”
Watching Yuefu leave, his mind stabilized a little.
What the hell is going on? Why did Ming'er suddenly get into danger and fall off the horse in a row, was it accidental? Still is......
was thinking to herself, but saw Zhang Xianru and Li Yanniang Shi Shiran come to the front, and the two of them said to Bao Yuanfu: "Your Majesty, will today's game continue?" ”
"Yuefu is injured, your number is not enough, this match ......" Bao Yuan looked at me with an inquiring expression.
"Sister Yuefu was injured, the concubine was worried, and she didn't want to compete, plus Ming'er was frightened a lot, and asked the emperor to promise to play again another day." Where are you still in the mood at the moment, I just hope to return to the palace as soon as possible.
"Then the winner or loser of today's game ......" Zhang Xianru did not want to give up.
"According to the current situation, Changchun Hall still wins one goal" Bao Yuan pondered for a moment and said: "Today's game, Changchun Hall wins." ”
"Your Majesty ......" Li Yanniang said dissatisfiedly when she heard this: "Fang Cai's ball is under our control, if it hits a hit, at least it will be a tie, how can it be considered a victory in Changchun Palace." ”
Zhang Xianru was also unwilling to say: "Your Majesty, our Shen Anqing missed a goal in order to save people, and lost the soldiers, you have to be fair and straightforward." ”
"This ......" Bao Yuan looked embarrassed.
"Please let the emperor know it." Seeing that the two of them were in trouble, my heart was on fire, and I saluted Bao Yuan and said: "Ming'er almost fell off the horse, I suspect that someone did something to do it, I just asked Ming'er, she also said that in the chaos, one side of the reins suddenly loosened, so that she was unsteady and almost fell off the horse." ”
"I think it's because Ming'er in my sister's palace is learning polo for the first time and is not familiar with riding skills." Zhang Xianru sneered.
"You ......" Ming'er heard this, her face changed greatly, and she was about to refute.
But seeing Bao Yuan frowning, he waved his hand and said, "I have made up my mind, and I will win today's game in Changchun Palace." As for the side matters, I will ask someone to investigate them in detail. Go back, all of you. "After that, he took me to the dragon with a cold face, and never looked at Zhang Xianru and Li Yanniang again.
Although I didn't look back, I also knew that there was a jealous gaze behind me that slashed at my back, and I couldn't help but shudder.
Suddenly, I blamed myself in my heart, if I hadn't been competitive, I wouldn't have put Ming'er in danger and hurt Yuefu. I really understand what it means to be "a pet and a grudge".
Women's jealousy and resentment are really unguardable, even if I am not afraid or hidden, but what about those who value me around me? How could I ignore them, and I felt disheartened when I thought of this.
Half an hour later, the Tai Hospital sent an internal supervisor to report that Yuefu's injuries were not serious and did not reach her muscles and bones. So he felt a little at ease, and ordered someone to send a soothing soup to Ming'er.
Bao Yuan saw that my face was very bad and refused to leave, so he stayed in the Changchun Hall to accompany me at night.
Because of the thought that Yuefu was injured to save Ming'er this time, if she returned to Yingxian Palace, she would be bullied by Li Yanniang and others. I was worried that no one would take good care of her, so I moved into Changchun Hall to live with me. Bao Yuan pondered for a moment and nodded in agreement. Yuefu's position is low, so this is an exception.
It's just that Jingyi has quite an opinion on this matter, shaking her head in front of me and sighing: "Why is my sister so kind-hearted. I think the girl fell from her horse very suspiciously. ”
I know that she is good for me, but this time I saw Yuefu injured to save Ming'er, and I saw her very well-behaved and sensible on weekdays, how could I believe that such a Yuefu would be so scheming.
I had to laugh at her and said: "I know that my sister is good for me, but she is just a parent who is affected by her body, Yuefu has always known books and etiquette, and she will never do such a thing, not to mention the situation that day, which is beyond human control." ”
"It's easy to dodge with open guns, but it's hard to defend against hidden arrows. You know this palace too shallowly. Jingyi didn't care, shook my hand, shook her head and sighed.
Seeing that she was worried about this, she had to shake her back and said with a smile: "Thank you sister for reminding me, Rui'er will be careful in the future." ”
Since Yuefu moved to the Qiyue Pavilion of Changchun Palace, she has followed the instructions of the Tai Hospital to rest in bed every day, and I saw that there were too few people with her, so I told Zhiqiu to pay more attention to it.
I don't want Ming'er to regard her as a life-saving benefactor, and she has to do everything herself, and she has to run to Qiyue Pavilion every day when she is free. Seeing that the girl is so grateful, I am also happy to follow her.
Every time Bao Yuan came to Changchun Palace, I would take him to sit in Qiyue Pavilion.
It's just that every time Bao Yuan comes, Yuefu always looks cramped and uneasy, even if Bao Yuan talks to her cordially, she is also very restrained and careful, and often turns red before she speaks.
After going back and forth, I felt that I was a little embarrassed to force Baoyuan to see her.
It's just that I've been there a lot of times, and Bao Yuan seems to have a good impression of this delicate and well-behaved girl.
