Chapter 116: Competition

A group of female envoys waited on the high platform, with great pomp, and the set up tent was full of fresh tea and fruit cakes, as well as antipyretic ice cubes prepared in advance.

Ye Lingwu was too busy riding a horse and archery, she hurriedly walked around the side of the field to the high platform, and suddenly stopped, but saw that in the tent of Earl Rongzheng's mansion, Rong Yu, who was going to the banquet alone, surrounded by two women dressed in colorful clothes serving tea and pouring wine.

On the other side of the table, Pei Huai was dressed in a snow-white wide-sleeved brocade robe, and there were also two women around him, but they were dressed as serious female envoys.

Rong Yu bent up and stepped on the chair, put his arm on his knee and poured all the freshly peeled almonds into his mouth, looked at the horse riding on the grassland through the bead curtain, and said happily: "Brother Yuanqing, today's polo game of Jingyan's house is really lively, I just heard from the little guy that the horses on this occasion are all pulled from the barracks, and have you noticed it, even the people in the palace are here today!" ”

Pei Huai lightly fanned the folding fan in his hand, turned his eyes to look at the women's seat, and said, "The polo game organized by Shen Xiaohou Ye, the people in this palace will naturally appreciate their faces." ”

"yes." Rong Yu said, as if inadvertently touching the woman beside him.

Ye Lingwu secretly spit out a sentence of "prodigal".

Continue walking towards the girl's seat.

Kneeling in the tent sat many nobles dressed in gorgeous clothes and holding fans in their hands. These girls are not all upright, there is one wave around the six princesses, another wave around Lou Zhaorao, and the girls who are not gathered are chatting with each other.

Flowers are in full bloom, but there is only one Liu Feiyan missing, it makes sense that she is not there, how can a person who loves face still go to the banquet.

What was discussed – Shen Zhan.

Ye Lingwu bowed down first, and just took his seat, but he heard someone on the high platform shout in surprise: "Master Shen Xiaohou!" ”

Hearing the sound, the girl in the shed was like a firefly chasing the light source, and she opened the bead curtain with a brush and looked down.

I saw Shen Zhan walking around the sidelines, dressed in a strong suit, not losing the spirit of a young man, with Yue Yang with a good foot injury on his side, followed by four or five black cavalry guards.

"Shen Xiaohou Ye is such an immortal-like character, which girl in this world can be worthy?" A girl said with admiration in her eyes.

"It's also fortunate that Shen Xiaohou is not married, otherwise how would you and I swallow this breath~" Another girl mourned.

At this time, Lou Zhaorao, who was silent, turned her head away, and her tone was inexplicably displeased: "Ye Lingwu, do you also like Shen Xiaohouye?" ”

?!?!

Ye Lingwu looked back in amazement and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? ”

There are many girls in this capital who like Shen Zhan.

But what's her business!

Everyone loves her, will she follow suit?

Lou Zhaorao shrugged her shoulders disdainfully: "No, it's not, I don't want to look at it, but Mrs. Shen likes you very much, the Rong family private school let you go, and the palace banquet also took you, no wonder I heard Jiang Lanshu say those words before and thought it made sense." ”

Ye Lingwu frowned and said suspiciously, "What words?" ”

“…… There's nothing to say," Lou Zhaorao said with an unnatural expression, "Don't blame me for not reminding you, you'd better stay away from Jiang Lanshu, she looks very easy to get along with, but in fact, she is used to manipulating people's hearts." ”

Last time, Liu Feiyan would instruct Zhao Li to push her into the lake, in the final analysis, it was Jiang Lanshu's provocative words, Lou Zhaorao thought about it now, and felt that it was very stupid at that time, even if Mrs. Shen loved Ye Lingwu again, businessmen will always be businessmen, and flying on the branches to become phoenixes is only in the playbook.

Ye Lingwu didn't understand why Lou Zhaorao suddenly said this, and wanted to ask, but heard another uproar from below.

“…… Hey, isn't that Jiang Wangshu, Lord Jiang! He's coming to a polo match too? I don't know which girl snorted.

Ye Lingwu followed the restlessness and looked, Jiang Wangshu, who was wearing a snow-blue brocade robe, held the robe slightly in one hand, and walked towards the high platform with one hand behind his back.

Under the summer sun, it is as refreshing as a spring in the forest.

As soon as he appeared, Zhao personally stepped forward to greet him, and even pulled Shen Pan'er, who was dressed in a pink dress.

- Ye Lingwu was stunned, no wonder the female envoys pulled Shen Pan'er to the high platform, and didn't say anything, it turned out that the Zhao family had made up his mind to let his daughter look at Scholar Jiang uprightly.

Today's polo game is really not simple.

Ye Lingwu looked at Shen Pan'er, who was awkward with the Zhao family, and couldn't help but sweat on his hands, thinking to himself, the daughter of the good Hou Mansion didn't get in the oil and salt, and it was estimated that she was still thinking about Rong Yu, who was pregnant with a beautiful woman over there.

"I look at Shen San's eyes above the top, as if I can't look down on Scholar Jiang?" Lou Zhaorao began to play the essence of gossip again.

Ye Lingwu snorted a few times, but endured it and didn't complain.

It's not that her eyes are above the top, it's that her eyes are blindfolded with lard! After muttering in his heart, Ye Lingwu glanced at the men's seat.

Sure enough, Rong Yu was talking and laughing with Shen Cizheng, who didn't know when he was seated, while Pei Huai sat quietly on the side, and the two gaudy women who were waiting on the side before were gone.

At this moment, they heard the sound of a startled horse passing by, and everyone on the high platform looked over one after another, and saw a red horse breaking through the entrance.

The woman was wearing a narrow black brocade robe embroidered with moire, holding a horsewhip high in her right hand, and her eyebrows and eyes were crooked, showing her heroic spirit.

The eyes on the high platform were all hooked by the heroic girl on horseback, Ye Lingwu heard the movement around him, stood on the steps and looked at the many people riding horses in the wind on the grassland, but they were not as dazzling as the girl.

Rong Yu frowned, looked at the girl's appearance carefully, stared at the big eyes, patted her thigh and said, "That's not ...... Isn't that General Cheng's only daughter, Cheng Gukite!? When did she return to Beijing, Jingyan, your nemesis has returned to Beijing!! ”

"Who?"

Before he could see the person clearly, Shen Ci, who was still sitting lazily, straightened his back suddenly, and looked seriously in the direction pointed by Rong Yu, and in the next second, his face was suddenly stunned as if the sky had fallen.

Pei Huai followed the gaze of the two and wondered: "Why did Brother Rong say that the girl was Brother Jingyan's enemy?" ”

Rong Yu held back a smile and said: "Why else, our Jingyan treated the girl as a brother when he was young, and the prince of the dignified Hou Mansion did not pull the little sons of the General's Mansion to fight and fight in the streets and alleys, but one year on the Yuan Festival, Jing Yan saw the little sons of the General's Mansion wearing women's clothes, and only then did he know that the family was his daughter's family, for this reason, we only had a six-year-old Xiao Jingyan's three views collapsed, and he didn't dare to go out for half a month." ”

Rong Yu finally couldn't hold back his laughter - "Hahahaha Brother Yuanqing, do you say it's funny?" ”

Shen Ci's eyes darkened, and he almost gritted his teeth and said, "How could my special mother have expected that a little girl would wear men's clothes all day long. ”

Rong Yu smiled from ear to ear: "She's back, it's good for you to feel good now." ”

Shen Ci kept a calm face and did not speak.

Pei Huai hooked his lips and smiled: "How can anyone call a girl a brother, but this is all when I was a child, Brother Jingyan doesn't have to care." ”

Rong Yu stretched out his hand and patted Pei Huai's shoulder, smiled, and said in an old-fashioned manner: "Brother Yuanqing's words are wrong, don't look at Jing Yan's indifferent appearance on the surface, in fact, his heart has long been in chaos. ”

As he spoke, Rong Yu didn't forget to smile evilly at Shen Ci and raise his eyebrows.

Shen Ci glanced at him and scolded in a low voice: "Get out." ”

Everyone enthusiastically guessed the beautiful shadow below, and almost guessed the girl of the military general's family in the capital, chattering, Lou Zhaorao stared gloomily, not used to seeing someone in the limelight under her nose, and looked at Ye Lingwuchao with a collapsed face: "Who is that person?" ”

Ye Lingwu looked at it carefully, shook his head and said, "I don't know." ”

Lou Zhaorao was displeased: "The guests of the Ningbei Hou Mansion, can you still know them?" ”

Ye Lingwu was speechless and replied: "There are dozens of guests attending the banquet today, how can I get to know the girls of each family one by one?" ”

As soon as the words fell, a deafening gong and drum sounded, and the grassland was quiet for a moment, but I heard the shouting of a grassland steward from below: "Today is a polo match held by the Hou Mansion of Ningbei, and the young Marquis Shen has set up a color head, and you can ...... it."

There was an uproar on the high platform, most of the people who went to the banquet today were the families of military generals, and the sons and daughters present were ready to move, but they did not dare to end easily.
