The ninth day of September is a good day, it is not only the Double Ninth Festival, but also the birthday of Song Guogong Geng Guangding, there are rumors in the capital that the richest man in the Great Zhou is Song Guogong Geng's family, but Song Guogong Geng Guangding is low-key and never shows his wealth. This birthday is like this, I didn't send a big invitation, I only invited Sigui to the Bihui Villa of Geng's family in the south of the city, and all the people invited were world friends.

In addition to the celebration of the birthday, the four teams will be determined by lot, and the Song Guogong team will play a friendly match with the Yunyang Hou team. I didn't expect that many people came, especially the majority of families traveling. The Double Ninth Festival in the autumn, all relatives have to climb high to avoid disasters, I heard about the bow game between the Song Guogong team and the Yunyang Hou team, and many people heard the news, in order to let the ladies who are usually in the boudoir rarely travel, have a glimpse of the demeanor of Xiao Wenhou Lan Tingshu.

But there are also people with other purposes, such as the Qi Guogong team and the Qingyuan Hou team, who are here to inspect the military situation. Come early and find a seat to sit. Song Guogong Geng Guangding, Qi Guogong Shang Chengzhi, Yunyang Hou Lanchou, Qingyuan Hou Chen Dehuai and the military department left to wait for Lang Shang Chengjie to sit on the main stage, first drew lots, the result came out that the Song Guogong team played against the Qi Guogong team, and the Yunyang Hou team played against the Qingyuan Hou team, I really didn't want to come to anything, the Qingyuan Hou team shook their heads helplessly after learning about it, and then they were talking to each other, I don't know what to say. There are two matches in the morning, and the two winners will play against each other in the afternoon to determine the winner. The most disappointed in the results was Qingyuan Marquis Chen Dehuai, but he didn't show it.

When the game was about to start, Xia Zhan, the secretary of the ministry, took the whole family on a trip and came to Bihui Villa, and the others Geng Guangding could not be seen, but Xia Zhan was different, Geng Guangding hurried to greet him.

Walking in front was a middle-aged man in his fifties, with a thin face and a pointed chin, it was the kind of person who was overly contemplative, calculating others, and easy to lose weight, and walked forward with a beautiful face, Geng Guangding hurriedly greeted him and waved his hand, "Lord Xia can come, Peng Sheng is shining. Disrespectful! Disrespectful!".

"Recklessly bother, I hope that Grandpa will not be surprised!", Xia Zhan was polite and did not forget to salute.

"Where! Where! Welcome!", Geng Guangding is also polite, just like a distinguished guest.

Song Guogong Geng Guangding invited Xia Zhan and the whole family to sit on the main stage, among which there was naturally the Xia family Sanqiu, Xia Zhan's family had a large population, and the game was ready to start after a busy meal. Suddenly, he came to report that King Yu led his family to travel and also came to Bihui Villa. Geng Guangding, the Duke of Song Guo, who had just quieted down, did not inform others and hurriedly went to greet him alone.

Yu Wang Zhao Ludi is the nephew of Emperor Jiaqing and is in his forties this year. His father, Zhao Renyi, the prince of Dexing, was the second brother of Emperor Jiaqing, and was named the crown prince by Emperor Yuanhui when he became an adult, but it is a pity that he died young, otherwise the throne would be his. When Yu Wang became an adult, he did not ask about political affairs, wrote and painted at home, indulged in the collection of antiques, and had a special eye for antique porcelain calligraphy and painting. It is one of the seven talents, and the treasure of Yu Wang Zhao Ludi is famous in the capital.

I thought it was a royal pie, but it was no different from an ordinary official. It is more than one grade different from Xia Zhan's style just now. Yu Wang Zhao Ludi went to the village first and wandered around an ancient tree alone.

Geng Guangding stepped forward and saluted, "I've seen His Royal Highness King Yu!".

At this time, King Yu turned around and raised the paper fan in his hand, "The prince doesn't have to be in courtesy!" I just came to see this ancient pine.".

This is in line with the style of King Yu, this ancient pine was planted by his ancestor Geng Tingwen, the founder of the Song Dynasty, and it has been nearly 200 years now. The prince has good eyesight! When I was a child, my grandfather said to me that my ancestors want their descendants to take good care of this ancient pine, and only when it is flourishing can my Song Mansion continue to flourish.".

King Yu nodded and smiled, which can be regarded as agreement." This is in line with the temperament of the founding father, thinking that others were fighting for power and profit, but he lived in the mountains and rivers, plants and trees, which made people can't help but look up!", said and looked back at Gu Song, thinking about the scene of the year.

Geng Guangding had no choice but to accompany him, and he hadn't looked at this ancient pine carefully for a long time, so he regarded it as self-entertainment.

"Guogong doesn't have to accompany him, I'll leave on my own when I see it.", King Yu didn't look at him when he spoke.

"That's rude! Today happens to be the fool's birthday, and there is another bow competition, can the prince enjoy the light.".

When King Yu heard this, he immediately turned around, put away the paper fan, and then waved his hand and said, "Such a coincidence!" Then I have to congratulate Grandpa Guo!".

Geng Guangding was a little dazed, and invited him again, "The prince will go to watch the game first, and then stay to eat and drink.".

King Yu couldn't help but feel embarrassed, "If there is only family, this king and his relatives can stay, if there are courtiers, the prince knows my standards.".

Geng Guangding thought that Xia Zhan was there, and King Yu would definitely not be with him. Besides, the game has been delayed and cannot be consumed any longer. So he proposed, "Can you invite the princess and her relatives to watch the game, and I will accompany the prince here?".

King Yu hesitated for a moment, "Okay!" Let the princess and the county lord go, but they don't have to accompany each other, and I will be at ease alone."

Geng Guangding was about to leave, "Don't alarm others, just treat it as a friend and family, just find a quiet place!" Hearing King Yu's words, Geng Guangding turned around and agreed; "Listen to the prince! I'll just say my relatives, try to keep a low profile and not let them be recognized.".

King Yu nodded, and went to watch Honka again. Accompanying him was the princess and the county lord Zhao Qingying, and not far away, Geng Guangding hurriedly stepped forward to salute. Princess Yu is auspicious and beautiful, nearly forty years old and newlywed young women. The lord of Shiyang did not inherit her beauty, her appearance was too ordinary, and her dress was not gorgeous, and there was nothing dazzling and dazzling.

Fortunately, their outfits are no different from those of ordinary officials' families, and they do not have a royal style, which is the consistent style of Yu Wangfu, and placing Yu Wang's family in the front row has not attracted much attention from everyone. After everything stopped, Geng Guangding announced the start of the game.

As soon as Lan Tingshu came on the field, his heroic appearance was full of joy and handsomeness, and the male god in the eyes of the women in the capital aroused the applause of the audience, especially the female relatives of the Xia family, they all knew the matter between Lan Tingshu and the eldest lady, and they all wanted to see the heroic appearance of the future uncle, among them, there was inevitably the county lord of Yu Wangfu, who didn't care at first, and slowly changed his temperament, and also followed the attention of Xiao Wenhou's every move, he looked anxious, and his expression was very obvious. It's just that most women are like this and don't attract too much attention, but Princess Yu knows her thoughts.

The Song Guogong team is not weak here, the team leader Li Bin is the eighth grandson of the founding British Duke Li Xieyuan, he is twenty-one years old, although he is a side branch, but he is very talented, he is also chic and handsome, personable, and magnificent, but he is covered by Lan Tingshu's fame, and he is not eye-catching. Those who will examine will definitely pay attention to Li Bin, but it is a pity that a group of ignorant girls chasing the wind only have Lan Tingshu in their eyes, and there is his existence.

At the beginning of the game, the Yunyang team kicked off first, and the individual skills of the Song Guogong team were not weak, plus Li Bin commanded well, the Yunyang team did not have the upper hand for a while, especially Li Bin destroyed several must-score goals of the Yunyang team. At first, Yao Can thought that Song Guogong's team would be as vulnerable as the Qingyuan team, and when they saw that they couldn't score goals for a long time, they couldn't help but be a little impatient, so they messed up.

Taking advantage of the opportunity to restart, Lan Tingshu shouted in a low voice: "Don't mess up, pay attention to the formation!", at this time, Yao Can and the other three calmed down, and the mentality was stable, and the group cooperation improved, and the most important thing was that Lan Tingshu commanded well in the game, after scoring the first goal, his confidence doubled, morale was high, and he cooperated more smoothly with each other, and the Yunyang team led four to one at the end of the first quarter. Players from both sides rest on the spot.

Xia Xunqiu, who was watching on the main stage, saw that Lan Tingshu couldn't open the situation, and couldn't help but be secretly anxious, until he scored the first goal, he was so excited that he kept clapping his hands, all in the eyes of his father Xia Zhan. What annoyed Xia Zhan the most was that the eldest son Xia Yan and the second son Xia Ye were not interested in the game, and they judged the women on the sidelines. The bow game can reflect a person's physical condition, and it can also best see a person's leadership ability, although the Great Zhou is a civil official, if the bow is regarded as a martial arts game, it is a big mistake, some literati also love, it is a kind of fitness and puzzle competition, testing a person's comprehensive ability. Those who can achieve something in the bow will at least not be a mediocre person in the future, and must be a very discerning and motivated person. It seems that the sons are not promising, and it depends on how far this future son-in-law can go.

On the side of King Yu's family, Princess Yu saw that the county lord was worried about Lan Tingshu from time to time, this was a long time since she had seen her daughter anxious for a person, and the purpose of this trip was achieved, and her mood suddenly relaxed a lot.

In the second quarter of the game, the Yunyang team scored two goals at the beginning, and when the third goal was scored, the morale of the Song Guogong team completely collapsed, and it was unable to organize a decent attack, but fortunately, Li Bin relied on his own personal ability to score a face-saving goal, and the game ended at 9 to 2. Song Guogong's team has been forming a team for a long time and has trained a lot, and it also failed miserably, and it seems that the crown is none other than the Yunyang team.

After the end of the competition, Song Guogong Geng Guangding congratulated Yunyang Hou Lanchou, "Brother Lan! Not an opponent! Not an opponent! The nephew is very skilled, and the Yunyang Marquis Mansion will take the lead!".

Yunyang Hou Lanchou looked humble, "It's just lucky, there is still a month for the Song Guogong team to catch up!".

Geng Guangding, the Duke of Song, knew that this was Yunyang Hou Lanchou giving himself face, and he had to make it clear, "The power is there, just don't lose too badly next time!", Yunyang Hou Lanchou kept giving up.

This is Xia Zhan stepping forward and saluting, "Song Guogong!" How much to disturb, in the next farewell!".

Geng Guangding, the Duke of Song Guo, immediately returned the salute, "The banquet has been prepared in the village, and it is not too late for Lord Xia to leave after eating!".

Xia Zhan kept waving his hand, "I just came to watch the game, and the whole family has to go to the heights, with wine and food, and if it's late, I'll miss the morning."

Song Guogong Geng Guangding saw that it was not easy to stay if this was the case, so he stretched out his hand, "Then Lord Xia, please!" I'll send it!".

Fortunately, King Yu's family has left first, so there is a lot less trouble. Geng Guangding asked Xia Zhan to go first, Qi Guogong Shang Chengzhi, Yunyang Hou Lanchou, Qingyuan Hou Chen Dehuai and the military department to wait for Lang Shang Chengjie also followed. There are too many family members and slow movements.

But when he arrived at the exit of the arena, Lan Tingshu was waiting on the side, and when he saw Xia Zhan, he saluted and said, "Hello Uncle Xia!".

Xia Zhan stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder, "Good job!", knowing that Lan Tingshu was not waiting for him, he beckoned and said, "Let's go first!" Let the young people talk!".

Everyone understood and followed Xia Zhan forward. Xia Xunqiu stopped and asked with concern, "Are you tired?".

Lan Tingshu smiled happily and replied, "It doesn't matter, it's usually like this, I'm used to it!".

Xia Xunqiu is still worried, "Pay attention to the combination of work and rest, don't be tired!".

Lan Tingshu's heart was as sweet as honey, and he nodded, "Listen to you!" I'll pay attention.".

The two were silent for a while, Xia Xunqiu saw that his father had gone away, and he was afraid that the whole family would wait for a long time, so he resigned and said, "I'm leaving, my father will wait in a hurry!", although he said so, he still couldn't take a step.

Lan Tingshu understood in his heart, and immediately said, "I'll send you!", and said with his right foot, waiting for Xia Xunqiu to take a step.

"No, you don't! Everyone is looking at it!", Xia Xunqiu looked very embarrassed, and couldn't help but bow his head...

Lan Tingshu still insisted, "I just want to watch you leave, I won't follow you!".

Xia and autumn walked forward without a sound. Lan Tingshu followed behind, arrived at the gate of the manor, and watched Xia Xunqiu and his family get into the car and go away, before leaving with peace of mind and returning to the arena with everyone and his father.
