By the time the match was announced, several of the Tibetan players who had been knocked to the ground had not yet gotten up.

Nine to two, our Datang Royal Polo Team won the game with an absolute advantage, and used the rules of the game to injure a number of Tibetan players, only a few of our players suffered some minor injuries, and the same was true for horses.

The Tibetan polo team has never been so miserable, even if the first batch of Tibetan polo players came to Chang'an many years ago to compete with the Tang Royal Polo Team, the performance on the field and the results of the game are almost the same, and in the end the Tubo Polo Team won the victory, but this time it was so miserable, not only the score fell behind, but also many players were injured, which made all the members of the Tubo Mission feel disgraced.

The samurai's contest was defeated, the polo match was defeated, and the face was lost, and the Tubo was making the argument look depressed, and his face was like ashes, and he was already thinking about what kind of punishment he would receive after leading the mission back home.

This time, the envoy to Chang'an was ordered by Princess Wencheng to come to the Tang Emperor to mourn, and informed the Tang Dynasty that the Tang Dynasty had praised Pu and the new Zan Puli, and asked for the new Zampu; the second is to ask the Tang Emperor for marriage on the order of Princess Wencheng and ask Princess Taiping to marry; Third, according to the order of Qinling, he led dozens of warriors to Chang'an to compete with the Tang Dynasty warriors and play polo matches.

Just now in the last year's Qinghai battle they won a big victory, Datang lost face, this time it was to borrow the hands of the samurai to humiliate Datang again in the competition and polo match.

The emperor and empress of the Tang Dynasty did not give him a clear answer, but he was not worried about this, he believed that under the threat of force, the Tang Emperor would give in. But now the fiasco of the martial arts competition, the two top warriors were killed by the other party, and the polo game was lost in a mess, and his confidence in the sand was greatly damaged, and he had no confidence in the completion of this mission, and he was guessing that the Tang Emperor would later announce that he would reject their request for peace.

Although in the court on the threat of force, said that the Tang Dynasty is not allowed to marry and will meet each other, but this is only a threat, and will not necessarily be put into action, the Tubo army of tens of thousands of troops stationed in Qinghai, the previous year's war cost countless money, with the national strength of Tubo, it is impossible to maintain a large-scale battle for several consecutive years, not to mention that the Tang Dynasty has arranged a large number of border troops in Shanzhou, Yaozhou, and Hezhou to strictly prevent their invasion, if the Tang Dynasty army does not go out of the city to fight, the Tubo army that is not good at attacking the city wants to break through these fortified cities of the Tang Dynasty, The difficulty is still not small.

In addition, the new pawn of Tubo Zanpu, the ruling Lun Qinling was also afraid that the Tang army would take the opportunity to attack, so he was fully vigilant to guard against the attack of the Tang army, and he was also afraid that the Tang army would take advantage of the attack, so he appointed the Lun Sai to Chang'an to explore the truth and threaten it.

When the Tang Emperor saw that his subordinate warriors won the game and the polo game won again, he thought that the emperor would definitely ridicule himself for a while, and he was also defeated, waiting to be humiliated by the Tang Emperor.

As expected, Emperor Li Zhi got up, looked at the players from the two sides who had gathered at the side of the venue after the game, and then looked at the members of the Tubo Mission sitting on the side, and said with a smile: "All the games are very exciting today, I haven't seen such a wonderful event for many years," Li Zhi squinted at the side of the Commentary, and deliberately dragged out his voice, "Your envoy must also think that these games are very exciting!?" ”

He got up a little reluctantly, and saluted Li Zhigong: "Back to His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty warriors are really brave, and the envoy is deeply admired. Wonderful!"

Knock out your teeth and swallow it in your stomach, this is how it feels to be on the plug now, being ridiculed, and flattering with a smile, the high-spirited feeling when you first came to Chang'an has long been gone.

"Well, I have rewards for all the samurai who participate in the competition, and even more for those who show great courage!" Li Zhi stroked his beard and laughed loudly.

At this time, Wu Zetian on the side also got up, looked at Li Zhi and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, today's game is really exciting, the concubines are very excited to watch, and they can't wait to go down to try it in person, the emperor also promised before the game that the warriors who performed well in the game will be rewarded, so the concubines will announce the rewards on behalf of the emperor!"

Li Zhi smiled and nodded, "Then the queen will announce the reward!"

Wu Zetian motioned to Liu Yi, Li Duozuo, Qi Biming, Li Zhishi and many other members of the Datang Royal Polo Team to step forward.

Liu Yi, Li Duozuo and others also took off their masks, walked to the throne, and saluted respectfully, and several of them deliberately glanced at the members of the Tubo Mission who looked depressed on the side, with a provocative and disdainful look.

Only then did he see that the captain of the Tang Royal Polo Team was indeed Liu Yi who had killed the two samurai on his side in front of him, and at this time, his heart was full of anger, and he stared at Liu Yi with a pair of bull's eyes, eager to swallow Liu Yi in his stomach.

Liu Yi also felt the hostile gaze of the Lunsai Tune, turned his face slightly, with a hint of a smile on his face, and glared at the Critic for a while.

Although Liu Yi had a smile on his face, his cold eyes contained a murderous aura, and he couldn't understand why this young Tang warrior's eyes were so frightening, this was the son of the high-ranking Tang official who had been captured by his own army, and he was a person who had some deep hatred for Tubo, no wonder his subordinates were not merciful at all during the competition just now, and the two excellent warriors he brought died tragically under his hands. Also, in the polo game, this person was also fierce, without a little forbearance, and many samurai were injured by him. This person is so good at a young age, and his eyes make people feel unusually calm, and when he grows up, he must be a general who is difficult for the Tubo people to deal with.

Liu Yi glanced at the argument coldly, then turned his eyes away, and listened to Wu Zetian's reward.

Wu Zetian announced the rewards for these brave Chinese players, Liu Yi got another five catties of gold, a hundred silk horses, and the others were also rewarded.

Then several Tibetan players who performed well also received the same reward, and all the other players who participated in the game were also rewarded, but the reward was much less.

Emperor Li Zhi then announced the end of today's martial arts and polo tournaments, and asked the Tibetan delegation to return to the Honglu Temple Hall to wait for the summons.

He got up and retreated, and led his subordinates who were also disgraced to leave the Daming Palace.

After the Tibetan mission left, Li Zhi and Wu Zetian gave Liu Yi and the others a few more words of encouragement, and returned to the palace where they lived under the escort of the Qianniuwei sergeant.

The high-spirited Liu Yi, as well as the generals of the forbidden army in the palace who participated in the polo match, stayed there after the emperor's throne left, and they couldn't get out at once, many soldiers of the forbidden army who were not on duty, as well as courtiers and some foreign envoys surrounded them, and took turns to congratulate them and pay tribute to the warriors who participated in the polo match.

There has never been such a chaotic scene in the Daming Palace, more than a dozen generals of the forbidden army were surrounded by a large group of people, accepting their congratulations, and a large group of forbidden army soldiers were there to chant enthusiastically.

After a long period of excitement, these courtiers and foreign envoys dispersed one after another.

Pei Xingjian deliberately walked in front of Liu Yi before leaving, with unconcealed excitement on his face, and punched Liu Yi in the chest, "Virtuous nephew, good job, show such skills in front of the Tubo mission, give your father a long face, your bravery will become a nightmare for the Tubo people, I believe that in the future, you will become a Tang Dynasty general who will make the Tubo people fearful!"

"The general has won the prize!" Liu Yi saluted respectfully, "The last general doesn't want to see the Tubo people so arrogant, so he taught them a heavy lesson, which can be regarded as a little comfort to my father!"

It's been almost a year since he joined the army, Liu Yi hasn't killed anyone on the battlefield, and today it's the first time someone has died under his hands, and it's a Tubo person who has a deep hatred with him, which makes him feel a little relieved, Liu Yi is a little regretful, why Tubo is making a difference why he doesn't send a few warriors to the field to compete, so that he can kill a few more people and vent his evil anger.

"Well, this time you show such skills, I believe that after the expedition, no one will dare to disobey you!" Pei Xingjian smiled happily and patted Liu Yi on the shoulder, "The expedition will be set out in a few days, and the affairs of the Tubo mission are basically completed, so hurry up and make preparations for the expedition!"

"Yes! Great General!" Liu Yi straightened up and answered.

Pei Xingjian didn't say anything more, still patted Liu Yi's shoulder with his hand, and left with a smile.

After Pei Xingjian left, Liu Yi also talked about today's event with his teammates, Li Duozuo, Qi Biming and others, who were much higher than him, and everyone was full of pride, and they also agreed to find a time to go to the sea outside for a drink, and get drunk for today's victory, which can be regarded as a grand trip for Liu Yi, a great hero who has earned face for Datang.

A few people walked outside as they spoke, and at this time, a group of people ran out of nowhere, it was Princess Taiping and several of her maids.

"Yi'an! You wait for me!" Princess Taiping shouted from afar.

When Li Duozuo, Qi Biming and others saw Princess Taiping running over, they all showed a narrow look to Liu Yi, saluted Princess Taiping, and left first.

Princess Taiping ignored the strange expressions of the departing generals, her face was unconcealed excitement, she approached Liu Yi's side, looked up at Liu Yi and said, "Yi'an! You are so brave today, I don't know how happy I am!"

"Presumably, with today's incident, your father and queen mother should not let you marry that Tubo Zampu who is still snotty!" Liu Yi was also in a good mood, looking at Princess Taiping who was full of excitement, and said jokingly.

"Nasty!" Princess Taiping said coquettishly, "I don't want to marry that eight-year-old Zampu!" Princess Taiping said that she naturally came up to take Liu Yi's arm, her face was slightly red, but she still said with a playful look, "I want to ask my father and mother to marry you, hehe!" This time they will definitely agree..."

"Ahh Princess," Liu Yi's smile froze on his face, and his mood fell from excitement to freezing, this demon girl must do what she said, this must be done, and she immediately distinguished, "Princess, these jokes can't be talked about, the last general is still keeping the filial piety period, and he is about to go on an expedition, who knows if he will come back, I Liu Yi will keep the princess's affection in my heart, and please don't talk nonsense..."

"Who is talking nonsense to you? No one is allowed to have an accident on the battlefield, Wan'er and I want you to return safely," Princess Taiping snorted disapplausively, "I know you don't like the way I used to be, I will become as gentle and lovely as Wan'er, and let you like it... Hum! I can do what I said," Princess Taiping said these words, only to find that Liu Yi's expression was already ugly, and she was also taken aback, and said a little subconsciously, "Yi'an, I mean really... And, there's... Let me tell you," Princess Taiping saw that there was no one else on the side, and she was also ruthless, biting her lip and saying, "... If you become my colt, I... You can ask the queen mother to let ... Wan'er also followed you and made you a concubine!"

"No, not anyway!" Liu Yi's face showed anger, and there was no room for negotiation between his words. How can Shangguan Wan'er be her own concubine, such an excellent woman, no matter what, she can't be a concubine without status, she must be her wife, otherwise she will be so sorry.

"Why not? I'm willing to do it, why don't you agree? Wan'er, she... It should also be willing..."Princess Taiping looked at Liu Yi puzzled, this is a difficult decision she made after a long period of consideration, according to the law, concubines are not allowed to take concubines, but Princess Taiping naively thought that as long as she married Liu Yi, she would allow Liu Yi to take concubines, and her father and mother would also allow it, but she only allowed Liu Yi to take Shangguan Wan'er as a concubine, and no one else could. Unexpectedly, Liu Yi still refused.

"Princess, the last general is about to go on the expedition, and there are still many things to prepare, so I will leave first!" Liu Yi didn't want to get entangled with this little demon girl on this sensitive issue, and was ready to slip away.

"Don't go, you stop me!" Princess Taiping, who felt despised and insulted, was furious, glared and pointed at Liu Yi with her finger.

Liu Yi stopped, didn't speak, and turned his back.

"Turn me around!" Princess Taiping spoke with a crying voice.

Liu Yi turned around and looked at Princess Taiping with a look of grievance and tears in her eyes without any expression.

Forced by Liu Yi's momentum, Princess Taiping's anger slowly disintegrated, but the grievances were still there, tears welled up in her eyes, she was a little overwhelmed, and she was stunned for a while, and then she came back to her senses, approached Liu Yi's side, and looked up at Liu Yi: "Yi'an, I... I shouldn't have been so fierce to you! I am... I really think so... Okay then, I'll not say anything, you go first!" Princess Taiping looked at Liu Yi's face and still didn't stretch, and her tone of voice softened.

"Princess, then I will retire..."Liu Yi saluted and walked quickly.

Behind her, there was the sound of Princess Taiping stomping her feet vigorously, and the sound of covering her mouth and sobbing slightly...
