Li Huai is not too late, if it is a little later, the game will start soon, and he will not be able to report his name.

As requested, he put on his skates, walked around the river, and successfully registered.

"Please take care of my luggage." Li Huai handed over the luggage to the personnel of the registration office, who were all officials of Jiuyuan.

I went to the playing field.

The whole race route is a total of ten miles.

This distance is really a bit unbearable for ordinary people.

But.

Everyone thought that Princess Shangguan would come to watch the game in person, as if she had been beaten with chicken blood, and everyone was full of vitality.

Soon.

A subordinate official from the Jiuyuan Taishou Mansion came out, briefly explained the rules of the game, and then prepared to start.

With the sound of the gong.

The competition has officially begun.

Whoosh.

Li Huai only felt a bunch of people passing by, "It's so fast at the beginning, will you be able to eat later?" ”

He didn't delay, he raised the speed, and was in an intermediate position.

It's less than three miles.

Many of those who had accelerated explosively just now couldn't bear it anymore and fell behind, and some even slipped to the shore and fell to the ground and rolled a few times.

caused a burst of laughter from the surrounding people.

Li Huai took advantage of this opportunity and began to speed up, and soon came to the front of the team, which was really too simple.

That's what he just thought.

Sou! Whoosh!

Suddenly, there were a few young men, hunched over and bending, overtaking him, and they would still figure skate?

Li Huai was overtaken like this, so he began to get serious, and then raised the speed to the extreme, but did not use true qi.

If you use real anger, you will foul.

Soon.

Li Huaidu's forehead was sweating, and there were still four or five people in front of him, and he couldn't catch up with them when he exerted his twelve points of strength.

Thought this was their limit.

For some reason, everyone suddenly began to accelerate explosively, and Li Huai was overtaken by three people.

"Are they all so hard?"

Li Huai was too focused and didn't look at the shore, so he didn't know that he had just passed in front of Princess Shangguan.

They are accelerating explosively here, just to show Princess Shangguan.

Shangguan and the others saw it clearly.

"That was ...... just now," the small bowl was a little uncertain.

"Seems like so." Shangguan is not so sure.

"Did you just see it, there was a person just now, who looks like His Royal Highness King Liang, it's exactly the same." Mu Yin's heart was relatively big, she didn't think it was Li Huai, she just looked very similar.

The course of the race is not straight, from the starting point to Shimizu Township, a total of seven miles, where a long table is placed.

The long table was full of mandarines, and after sliding here, everyone went around in a circle and took a mandarin orange.

However, when you turn back to Sanli, that is, to the place where Princess Shangguan watched the game, the game will be over.

After Li Huai took the orange, he found that there were already more than ten people in front of him, and he began to believe that this thing really needed talent.

Don't underestimate anyone.

However, this king can't be in the top ten.

Li Huaimao accelerated vigorously.

Fight!

Boom!

With the sound of a gong, the race ended, and Li Huai was the ninth to insert the rice ears and oranges on a square platform at the finish line.

received a consolation prize, a bag of rice gifted by Princess Shangguan.

This is only available in the top 10.

It's not easy!

Li Huai gasped heavily, and finally saved his reputation, just when everyone was celebrating for the young man who won the first place.

He casually looked up.

Only then did they find Shangguan and Xiaowan, they all looked at him with a shocked expression, as if they hadn't woken up and were still in a dream.

"Shh

Li Huai came back to his senses, hurriedly raised a finger, and made a silent gesture.

It's still late.

"See the Cool King!"

I don't know which guy in the Taishou Mansion shouted.

"See the Cool King!"

Those officials who knew Li Huai collectively paid homage, and then those officials who did not know Li Huai also knelt down.

Seeing this, the surrounding people knelt down on the ground one after another like the wind blowing wheat fields.

Completely spoiled the atmosphere of the game!

Shangguan Keke seemed to wake up from a dream, his body trembled, and he learned that this was not a dream, and he really came back.

"Concubine...... I've seen the prince! ”

With tears in her eyes, she curtsy.

The last person to react was Mu Yin, who muttered in a low voice: "It turns out that it is really His Royal Highness King Liang, not just a look." ”

Li Huai was very helpless, the originally cheerful atmosphere was as silent as a stagnant water in an instant, which was simply a disappointment.

"Get up." He waved his hand.

"King Xie Liang!"

Everyone said in unison, and got up like the wind blowing a wheat field, and everyone craned their necks, looking at the young prince curiously and quietly.

Li Huai was really not used to this kind of atmosphere, so he said: "Then music, then dance." ”

Happy? Dance?

Everyone was confused.

Shangguan Keke walked up at this time and whispered, "What's the fun, it's over." ”

"Then give out the prize!" Li Huai changed his words.

Originally, Princess Shangguan came to present the award in person, but now that Li Huai is back, he will change the award to their husband and wife.

The young man who won the first place, the sweat on his head had not subsided, and he came to Li Huai and Shangguan with a nervous mood.

You must know that King Liang also participated in the competition, and he didn't dare to slip so fast when he was killed.

Li Huai saw his nervousness and patted him on the shoulder, "Nice young man, cheer up, you have to look like a winner." ”

When the young man heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and then obediently straightened his back.

Li Huai personally put on a commemorative medal for him.

This moment.

He felt extremely honored, His Royal Highness King Liang personally gave him a seal, which was enough for him to brag about for a lifetime!

Shangguan Coco brought ten taels of gold.

The young man was a little frightened, knelt down and said, "The grass people don't dare to accept this gift!" ”

"Hey!"

Li Huai wondered, there are still people who don't want money, what is he afraid of, he is afraid that this king will be reluctant to give up these ten taels of gold?

Looking for him to go back?

"You have to accept these ten taels of gold, this is the rule of the game, you win with real strength, why not!"

"The grass people don't dare!" The young man said in fear.

Li Huai took this opportunity to announce to everyone: "Liangzhou must have the rules of Liangzhou, words must be believed, merit must be rewarded, and punishment must be punished, and no one shall violate it!" ”

When ordinary people hear this, at most they will only think in their hearts that His Royal Highness King Liang is broad-minded and generous.

But the other person heard a different meaning.

This is to ...... Legislation?!

"His Royal Highness King Xie Liang! Thank you, Princess! ”

Only then did the young man accept ten taels of gold.

Subsequently, the top ten to the top two people were awarded, the second had ten taels of silver, and the third had five taels of silver.

The people in the back are all bags of rice.

After all the distribution, there was still one last bag left, which was Li Huai's.

The skating competition is over.

Since then, Liangzhou has held it every winter, and it has become more and more luxurious every time, and the prizes are no longer so picky and searched.

However, all of them recalled that the first session was the most cheerful, and this cheerfulness was never seen again.

Li Huai led Shangguan and others back to the city, and the people around him were also dispersed, and as for his luggage, someone would send it to Taishou Mansion.

"Comfortable!"

Li Huai lay on the familiar Taishi chair and took a long breath, and the whole person was inexplicably much more relaxed.

"How is the little white dragon?"

Shangguan Keke snorted and complained: "I just came back, and I first cared about a horse." ”

Li Huai smiled apologetically, "Of course it's not as important as the concubine, I just came back to see you." ”

As he spoke, he was about to take her hand.

Shangguan Keke opened it, "You stink to death, don't touch me before you take a bath!" ”

Li Huai touched her nose, the woman's face changed when she said it, and when she was by the river, she still had tears in her eyes, but now she looked disgusted.

Shangguan Keke packed up the luggage he brought back, and then took a new set of clothes from the closet for him.

Taking advantage of the fact that the hot water was not ready, she briefly explained the situation in Liangzhou, too detailed needless to say, anyway, he only cares about the direction and never pays attention to the details.

At present, the top priority in Liangzhou is the construction of Longxi County, and the construction period has not stopped, but under the pressure from the Western Regions and the imperial court, it is really uncomfortable.

Now the people of the imperial court and the Western Regions are in Jiuyuan, clamoring to see King Liang every day, and she is changing her tricks to find excuses.

"This matter can't be delayed, you can talk to them tomorrow first, it doesn't matter if you can't talk about it, you are not allowed to hit people." Shangguan Keke instructed.

Li Huai smiled, "Am I the kind of person who is rough?" ”

"Yes!"

“……”

The second major event is the formation of the Liangjun, which is actually linked to the commerce of Liangzhou.

Li Huai's initial budget was 100,000 troops, and according to a soldier's ten taels of silver, he would get 1 million taels.

This is just to raise 100,000 people, and then to buy armor, weapons, maintenance logistics, and 100,000 soldiers to eat, drink, and Lazar.

There is also the breeding and training of military horses.

Which one does not cost a lot of money.

Preliminary estimates.

In the first year, military spending was at least eight million taels of silver.

If Li Huai had a whim and wanted to do something else, ten million taels of silver would probably not be enough for him to spend.

Again, even if the Liang Palace is not built now, it has to be planned in advance.

"How much silver do we have now?" Li Huai asked.

"Less than 20 million taels." Shangguan Keke replied silently.

"You're my three-year-old."

"Less than 30 million, really, I don't believe you have to check the accounts yourself."

Li Huai didn't ask, she was afraid that if she asked again, she would have to punch someone with a small fist.

It is estimated that it should be more than 30 million taels!

"Lord, princess, the hot water is ready." The Nightingale came to report.

Syllable!

Shangguan Keke kicked him in the calf and urged, "Hurry up and wash." ”

Li Huai got up slowly, and when Shangguan Keke didn't pay attention, he stopped her and hugged her.

"What are you going to do, put me down!" Shangguan Keke's face was red and he struggled, and he had already guessed what bad things he was going to do.

How could Li Huai listen to her, and directly instructed the nightingale: "Go and prepare a change of clothes for your princess Shangguan." ”

"Yes!"

The nightingale also knew what was going to happen, and went to get the clothes with a red face.

"Badass!"

Shangguan Ke Coco sneered, and did not resist again.
