Chapter 122: The Son and the General (Thanks to the Thirteenth Chapter of the 95 Bean Alliance)
Qin Shouan often fights when he disagrees, giving people the impression of being irritable and impatient, in fact, he just feels that there is no need to waste time.
When necessary, he was very calm.
Huiyin Yinchi is the property of Langya Palace, but Qin Shouan did not break in easily, but went around a few circles around the periphery that was difficult to find, and after finding out some situations, he gradually approached.
Halfway through, he felt the deterrent gaze of the master, but it seemed to be only an unintentional vigilance, and after Qin Shou quietly lurked and restrained his breath, that deterrent gaze dissipated invisibly.
Even so, he meditated on the spot, his soul entered the ethereal realm, and he sensed the situation around him before moving on.
The appearance of a master in Huiyin Yinchi made him feel a sense of crisis, which was also expected by him, whether it was the Queen Mother or Tang Wanrong's status, he could find a master for him to drive.
Especially the dragon Yinwei in the palace is even more masterful, Qin Shouan is very impressed by the female official who looks gentle and plump, and the are half old.
Repainting Mei once took off the doorpost casually, and the power of a pillar made Li Bai Suxin and Qin Shouan join forces to block it, and Qin Shouan seemed to be able to compete with Chonghua Mei on the scene, but he knew very well that in fact, Repainting Mei's skills were much stronger than Ao Biao who met last night.
In short, even if Huiyin Yinchi is now surrounded by masters, as long as it is not a repainting, Qin Shouan still has a certain degree of confidence to sneak in, and he has the confidence to retreat when he is discovered.
Somewhat surprised, he found out that there was a participating polo team that belonged to the Nanjun King.
He subconsciously frowned, and before he could analyze it, he shook his head...... The Empress Dowager, Nanjun Wang and Tang Wanrong got together, or they would discuss topics related to Qin Shou'an, but they would not unite to murder him.
He is just the prince of Langya Wang, not the prince of Rongguo and the regent who has the ability to subvert the pattern of the court, or the prime minister who has flourished and has taken root in the officialdom of the New Qin Dynasty for decades.
When I was a child, when I participated in various clan activities, I saw many royal relatives, and the king of Nanjun probably saw it, but Qin Shouan had no impression.
In the end, it was only when he found a slightly chubby middle-aged man who ended the conversation with Tang Wanrong with an angry face that he confirmed that this was the king of Nanjun.
What is he looking for Tang Wanrong for? It doesn't seem to please you.
King Nanjun is slightly fat, his belly is not big, his appearance is quite graceful, and his appearance is upright and generous.
I think I also had a good skin when I was young, but now I am obviously hollowed out by beauty, and my steps are still a little vain when I walk.
In addition, she seemed to be angry with Tang Wanrong, and she didn't go far from the C-shaped racecourse, so she sat down.
The man serving next to him knelt on the ground with great agility, propped his hands on the ground, and used it as a human stool, allowing King Nanjun to sit on his back.
Qin Shou'an stared at the king of Nanjun, the escort convoy that stole the red poppy paste and changed the pillars, since it was not the queen mother's, and it could not be Tang Wanrong's, only the king of Nanjun was suspected.
Thinking of this, Qin Shouan sneaked in further, stared at Nanjun Wang, and watched three women's polo team games by the way.
The level of Nanjun Wang's polo team is actually passable, but their general level is obviously a step behind, and they are not good at defense, and they are hesitant to even make the most basic breakthrough in the position of the general.
The queen mother and Tang Wanrong's polo teams are at the same level, and the horses on both sides represent the two directions of choice for the polo team at this time.
The Queen Mother's horse is a military horse, with strong endurance and breakthrough ability, and the body shape and polo players are well matched, and all aspects are very balanced.
Tang Wanrong's horses highlight the pride of a rich world, and every horse seems to be at the forefront of the "famous horse list", a famous horse that horse lovers dream of.
They are tall and graceful, and they excel in their ability to fight, but they are slightly flawed in their coordination, and the polo players often need to be distracted to control them.
This battle was the most exciting, Qin Shou'an saw the general when the women's polo team paraded in the front palace of Baojin Lou last time.
She still wears a veil, she is a skilled horseman, she gallops like a god, her demeanor is graceful and light, her demeanor is excellent and feminine, and she has a hearty feeling when she swings with a spurt, which is very pleasing to the eye.
The members of Nanjun Wang's polo team looked restrained in the face of this general, while Tang Wanrong's polo team members still rushed fiercely in the face of her.
That means that this general has a certain identity, but he is more familiar with Tang Wanrong's side, and Tang Wanrong's polo team is also open, and the identity of this general is not to the extent that Tang Wanrong is jealous.
It is said that the Queen Mother also likes to play polo by herself, but such a pampered woman doesn't even have much time to walk on weekdays, let alone play.
These majestic horses are not something they can control.
Moreover, the Queen Mother has such a noble status, who is not afraid of touching her and bumping into her in the end? This polo can't be played at all, and she won it directly.
What attracted Qin Shouan's attention the most was actually a little girl watching the game.
The little girl was not with the nobles on the high platform of the game, but stayed in the far corner of the arena, staring intently at the game.
She was a teenager with a delicate countenance, always pursing her lips and wide-eyed, and riding a pony less than three feet tall under her.
Clenched into two fists, the expression on his face changed with the intensity of the game, one yelling, the other silent, and every now and then pulling the reins of the pony, as if eager to get involved.
But her horse was too small to get under the belly of some tall horses, and if she kicked them, she would probably be kicked away with the horses.
How did she get to that location? It's a little too dangerous, but the members of the polo team seem to be accustomed to her presence, and when they hit the ball, they will avoid where she is.
After each game, when the field was empty, she would run around the field on a pony, waving a non-existent club from time to time, and then shouting "goal" and playing happily.
Qin Shouan felt that her happiness was very simple, but it was also a little lonely.
After the polo match, there seemed to be some important activities in Huiyin Yinchi tonight, and it was gradually difficult to hide the people in the vicinity, so Qin Shouan sneaked into the courtyard in the second half.
The functional characteristics of the courtyard here are obvious, it seems to be only used to entertain VIPs to play, two attics are built near the lake, a Langyin Pavilion, a bamboo building, climb the building to overlook the western mountains, the surrounding courtyard gardens in the middle view, and see the scenery of the four shores of the lake closely.
In this backyard, there was no trace of Long Yinwei, there was almost no guard, Qin Shou'an just saw the repainting from a distance, and almost thought that she would be discovered, but she just glanced at the direction where Qin Shou'an was hiding casually, and then quickly left, and rushed to the hall where the banquet was being held.
In such a place, Redraw Mei will not leave the Queen Mother's side for too long, as long as she leaves, no one in this area will be able to find him.
Qin Shou'an continued to move forward, his target was the King of Nanjun, as long as he met the King of Nanjun talking to his entourage in private, he might be able to find out where the escort convoy that had dropped the bag was useful, as well as some unexpected unexpected information.
"Whew......"
"Whew!"
A few horse barks sounded, mixed with the sound of some women laughing, Qin Shouan turned his head to look, only to see a bamboo forest in front of him, and beyond the bamboo forest was a shallow lake, it seemed that the women's polo team was frolicking in the water with their horses.
They have stripped their robes, belts and leather boots, and only wear light undershirts, splashing the water, making the fabric more transparent, and the body that is often exercised has the toning vitality that ordinary women lack, and the arms are slightly rounded and the legs are plump, which has a unique style.
Qin Shou'an glanced away after a hurried glance, like a wind passing through the bamboo forest, and when he walked up the steps of a house, several members of the polo team came from the corner, and Qin Shouan quickly turned over and hid in the mezzanine on the second floor.
At this time, some multi-storey buildings, in order to ventilate and prevent moisture, and at the same time isolate the sound of movement and noise upstairs to the downstairs, often have a mezzanine design.
The mezzanine will increase the cost of building a house, so it is generally only used by wealthy families, and the mezzanine of the palace is often used for the hidden guards to hide, and has the function of a sentry house.
Qin Shou'an moved in the mezzanine, and soon found that the light above his head was transmitted, and it turned out that the floor on the second floor was designed with ventilation or drainage intervals in the middle, and he could peek into the movement in the room on the second floor by hiding in the mezzanine.
Just above his head, two round pillars were prying together the grinding disc wrapped in black satin, as if they were squeezing something on the floor, and there was no squeaky floor sound, so it could only be said that the floor slab was really well done.
Qin Shouan was about to leave, but he heard the woman's low wheezing, he hurriedly raised his head and approached the gap in the interval, only to find out where the pillar and grinding plate were, it was clearly a woman kneeling on the ground, doing a series of exercises such as sitting on the ground, lifting the straddle, and twisting the waist.
His nose smelled a warm aroma, the smell of rouge gouache after being washed away by hot water, this is the bath?
Qin Shou'an turned his head to look, and the corners of the mezzanine were indeed assumed to be pulleys, ropes, and teleportation channels.
This is a bath design that boils water downstairs and then brings hot water upstairs, and a similar design is often used in bedrooms.
When the owner wants to go to the toilet, the maid at the bottom will use a pulley to transfer the toilet filled with incense ash to the convenience port upstairs, and after the excrement falls into the bucket, the toilet bowl will be cleaned up immediately, so that there will not be the slightest smell left in the bedroom.
Although there was no peculiar smell in this mezzanine, Qin Shouan didn't want to stay longer, and was about to leave, but the woman upstairs stopped exercising and didn't move at all.
Qin Shou'an casually looked into the gap in the floor, but was shocked to find a pair of eyes staring at him.
Although it felt that under normal circumstances, it should be the woman upstairs screaming in fright, but at this time, Qin Shouan had a creepy feeling, and at the same time, a sharp sword was stabbed straight towards Qin Shou'an from that gap.
Fast, accurate, ruthless!
Qin Shou'an's body moved sideways, and he could avoid it, but as a result, another sword was inserted from his side, and Qin Shou'an had to stretch out his fingers and flick away.
"Boom!"
With a soft groan, the blade of the sword turned out to be extremely elastic, and it did not stop, but instead bounced towards Qin Shou'an.
This kind of rebound can't hurt him, but it hinders his actions, the woman has already pulled out her first sword, accurately judged Qin Shou'an's position again, and thrust it again.
Qin Shouan had already seen that this woman did not know martial arts, but she had accurate judgment ability and a very sharp brain, coupled with a lot of strength, he was a little embarrassed to be forced in this situation with a sharp weapon.
Sensing that the other party didn't know martial arts and didn't have the slightest true qi overflowing, Qin Shouan didn't think much about it, and directly broke through the mezzanine and jumped into the second-floor room.
Whoosh –
The sword light was like snow, and the woman stabbed Qin Shou'an directly without hurrying, and the tip of the sword was extremely accurate and pointed at the blood vessels on Qin Shou'an's neck.
Seeing that the tip of the sword was close at hand, the woman seemed to recognize Qin Shou'an, a slightly surprised look flashed in her eyes, and her wrist twisted, ready to move the tip of the sword.
It's just that she doesn't know martial arts after all, how can she move her sword so freely, and at the last moment, Qin Shouan calmly pointed out his finger and flicked the tip of the sword away.
The tip of the woman's sword passed by Qin Shou'an, and she herself almost crashed into Qin Shou'an's arms, she hurriedly took two steps back, staring at Qin Shou'an without saying a word.
Qin Shouan saw that she was wearing a veil, but he still recognized that she was the "general" of the women's polo team in the palace.
The two were only three feet apart, and to Qin Shou'an's surprise, she neither continued to attack nor shouted, just stared at his eyebrows and moved half a step forward.
"Haw-wow!" Qin Shou'an was slightly embarrassed, and was ready to pretend to be a Western Barbarian to pass the test.
He originally wanted to subdue the acupuncture point, or just knock him out and leave.
But the other party's calm and unhurried posture, which seemed to be just waiting for him to explain, made Qin Shouan embarrassed to make a move.
"Huh?" The woman was slightly surprised, and there was a hint of a smile between her eyebrows and eyes:
"The first time I saw Baojin downstairs, the son made an extraordinary shot, and he was dignified, like a fairy monarch descending to earth, slapping a fierce horse, and saving the people. Why did you hide your head and show your tail and speak a foreign language today, insulting your identity? ”
Qin Shouan was even more embarrassed, "I'm sorry, I didn't expect you to remember me." ”
"It's hard not to remember." The woman dropped the two long swords in her hand, "I can see that Childe also remembers me." ”
Qin Shou'an breathed a sigh of relief when he saw her move of throwing her sword.
He didn't think that he was in control now, or that the crisis of the other party's violent reaction had been resolved, but the other party's posture obviously meant that the current situation could be resolved through negotiation.
"On that day, I saw that the girl was wrapped in a brocade silk turban, wearing a narrow robe of gold silk and Qin brocade, with a gold inlaid jade belt around her waist, a beautiful jade horse as her head, gold as a chewing head, and a stirrup saddle as her head were all delicate and gorgeous. Heroic, like standing out from the crowd, unforgettable. ”
Qin Shouan hurriedly complimented, women don't like to listen to sweet flattery, especially when the other party is a beautiful man.
"It's over." The woman's eyes were full of smiles.
Qin Shou'an said her outfit that day clearly and accurately, which really surprised her, but it also showed the sincerity of his compliment.
You must know that her dress at the polo field today is not quite the same, the first time I saw her playing in the street that day, today is an official competition, and dressing too gorgeous will only hinder her performance.
His words were full of evidence that he was indeed unforgettable, and not that he made them up because he saw how she was dressed on the court today.
"Childe watched the game today, too?" The woman then asked.
"I've watched all three of the girl's games."
"Oh...... What do you think of my polo? ”
"If the girl is just playing, the others can only be said to be frolicking nine times out of ten. Whether the girl controls the horse and follows the ball, or sprints and interrupts, the level is not inferior to that of the men's team, at most it lacks durability and endurance. ”
Qin Shouan commented objectively.
She may not be the highest level in the women's polo team in the palace, but she is indeed capable of being a general.
The more important thing for a general is to command, as well as to grasp the timing of offensive and defensive formations, and other aspects of technology do not need to be top-notch.
"Childe also likes to play polo on weekdays?" Female uranium-bottomed cattle are swollen and percussion, and the horns are daggers
She sniffed, then raised her hand to cover her lips, which were a little stunned.
"When I was a child, I used to watch some polo and kemari games, and I just got to know something." Qin Shouan shook his head, and at the same time, he felt more and more that something was wrong.
It stands to reason that at this time, she shouldn't shout "Who is coming", "What are you doing", "Catch it before you tie your hands", "I'm going to call someone!" ”
And so on.
Here she talks to him about polo...... is worthy of being the general of the polo team, where can ordinary women be so indifferent?
Another point may be that women are often easily confused by men's beautiful appearances, and at the same time, there will be a little psychology that even if he is a bad person, even if he may be rude to me, then I will not lose anyway.
"I also like Keju a lot, but the current women's Keju team in Longyin City is not of high level, and too many women from princely and aristocratic families regard Keju as frolic, or they just like to wear Keju clothes."
The woman shook her head with some regret.
Qin Shouan also nodded, the juju suit is the only clothing that the new Qin woman can show her arms and long legs in front of outsiders, and there are always bold and open women who like to try.
It's just that Keju is, after all, a recreational sport that requires technical and exercise, and many women wear Keju clothes and twist a few times on the field, but it's hard for them to really play professional sports.
As a result, this obviously more down-to-earth sport is not as developed as polo, which has a much higher threshold.
"Listen to Childe, don't you watch polo and kemari games much when you grow up?" The woman came back to her senses and asked with a smile.
"My family is in Longyin City, I am young and away from home to learn martial arts, the mountains are high and the road is far away, and the geography is remote, so naturally I can rarely see the game again." Qin Shou'an concealed his identity, and basically answered truthfully.
The most important thing is that after becoming a martial arts master, the confrontational sports of ordinary people are a bit difficult to see.
However, women's kemari and polo still like to watch.
Even if he becomes the pinnacle of the Nine Grades in the future, even the Great Grandmaster, he also likes to watch it, and this has nothing to do with the level of the competition.
"It seems that Gongzi has been away from home for a long time, so he is no longer familiar with this Dragon Yin City and the surroundings, and even this Huiyin Yin Pond has broken in by mistake." The woman nodded in dismay.
Qin Shou'an was stunned, girl...... Isn't I...... How can there be such a thing?
This sneaky hid in the mezzanine, which was obviously an assassin's suspicion.
He didn't need to explain it skillfully, she actually stuffed such an outrageous explanation...... Who can mistakenly break into the mezzanine on the second floor and lie down?
You didn't think so just now, otherwise how could you stab the sword one after another.
"Actually, this Huiyin Yinchi is not a tiger's den in Longtan, if you break in, you can break in, and you don't have to worry about it." The woman continued.
"I think so too." Qin Shouan found that this woman had already cleared him of the suspicion of serious killing.
Of course, this is just what she thinks, and others may not see it that way...... Anyway, it means she won't try to do anything superfluous.
The woman looked a little depressed and puzzled at him, and couldn't help but smile, but the veil covered most of her gentle and elegant face, but she didn't worry about him seeing anything.
"As long as you don't bump into the Queen Mother......"
"Don't dare." Qin Shou'an's expression was immediately awe-inspiring, he just knew that the old lady of the Queen Mother must be among the guards and was the only protagonist of the banquet, so he came to this quiet and remote backyard.
If he directly bumped into the Queen Mother, for example, like the scene in front of him, wouldn't the old ladies take the opportunity to make trouble and cut the chicken and send the dragon?
"Why do you look like that? It seems that he is very afraid of the Queen Mother? The woman asked with a look of displeasure in her eyes.
"Can you not be afraid?"
This woman looks very talkative, but Qin Shouan can't tell the truth, let alone say that he is worried that the Queen Mother is eyeing the baby who has passed on his ancestry.
After all, she is the general of the women's polo team in the palace, and Qin Shouan has just shown a little fear of the Queen Mother, and she is a little unhappy.
So Qin Shou'an explained in words, "You said don't bump into the Queen Mother, of course I don't dare." Even if I have no ill intentions towards the Queen Mother, it is inevitable that I will be suspected of colliding with Feng Jia, and if someone is labeled as a stabbing driver, it will be even more troublesome. ”
The corners of the woman's mouth were slightly upturned, the breath between her lips and teeth spurted out, and the veil slightly swept up a trace of the corners, just revealing her gentle and soft chin.
"The Queen Mother is actually a very gentle woman, tolerant and warm to her subjects, do not use the five punishments, run the jade law and contain vitality, the courtiers praise: the ceremony is for pleasure, but also pure return to the simple, the four seas Muhua, Jiuyi Yushuo, Chui Miaojue, Fu Hongxun, out of the Xuan Palace and the town Ziwei, roll the clothes and attack the Yuan Gon......"
The woman praised the Queen Mother, and when she saw Qin Shou'an's complicated expression, she felt slightly embarrassed, and coughed lightly and said no more.
"The Queen Mother is not Yang Changle!" Qin Shouan had no choice but to echo a sentence, it can be seen that doing things under the hands of the Queen Mother must be a good fart.
But...... So how did Kurohime and Hakuhime survive? I feel that as long as these two people speak, they are going down the road of offending people.
"It is said in the court and the market that the Queen Mother is strict and unkind, in fact, because some men are too close to the Queen Mother." The woman thought for a while, and then explained that she couldn't let the image of the Queen Mother be too bad in front of others.
"I've heard of it." Qin Shouan nodded, looked at the woman who was close at hand, and said:
"The Empress Dowager and the courtiers discuss matters, even if they are separated by a screen or a curtain, they will be six feet apart. It is said that if a man comes within six feet of her, she will feel uncomfortable, and if he does within three feet, she will feel even more unbearable.
Hearing Qin Shou'an say this, the woman looked at the distance between herself and Qin Shou'an, and her bright and soft eyes showed a hint of surprise.
