Too true?
Lu Li's thoughts moved and he couldn't help but look behind the saint. It was a woman wearing Kun Dao robe.
The clouds are like clothes, the flowers are like faces, the spring breeze is blowing the threshold, and the dew is thick.
If we hadn't seen him at the top of Qunyu Mountain, he would have met at Yaotai under the moon.
The so-called "beautiful country" is probably used to describe her, which is rare in the world.
Even though Lu Li had seen numerous beauties, he still felt amazed after seeing Yang Taizhen.
However, just look at it from a distance.
Except for the saint, who in the world would dare to touch this stunning female Taoist?
Lu Li calmed down his thoughts, crossed his hands and said, "It is truly an honor for me to travel with the saint and the noble concubine Shangyuanjiajian."
"In that case, Aiqing will watch the polo match with me."
"Come, give me a table."
As he finished speaking, a tall old man came over holding two soft cushions.
If not Gao Lishi, who else could it be?
His face is sharp and angular, his eyebrows are like thick ink, and his skin color is dark. If he didn't have a beard, it would be impossible to tell that he is a eunuch.
"Thank you, Mr. Gao." Lu Li said politely.
Weng is the honorific title given to the old man. Gao Lishi has a high prestige in the palace. He has calmed down internal disputes in the royal family many times. He is indispensable for being able to ascend the throne today.
There is a saying widely circulated in Chang'an official circles:
If the strong man is on top, I will be safe when I sleep.
Spoken by the saint himself.
Therefore, Prime Minister Li Linfu was quite polite to Gao Lishi. The princes and princesses called Gao Lishi Aweng, the prince called him second brother, and the princes consort called him grandpa.
"You're welcome, Sir."
Gao Lishi smiled when he saw this person, and when he handed the cushion to Miss Qianrui, he even joked a few words to show his closeness.
However, not long after the words were spoken, there was a burst of cheers that resounded through the sky.
It came out after a thousand calls.
At this moment, Datang’s cavalry began to enter:
The black bun tightly wraps the hair, the robe is uniformly red, and is tightly tied with a belt, and tight pants are worn underneath to ensure crisp and neat movements when playing ball.
King Yong is at the front, holding a club in one hand and riding a whip with the other, leading his warriors to gallop around the field.
The noble men and women in the stands were also very considerate, and cheered for a long time.
After all, this is Chang'an, the capital of the Tang Dynasty, and King Yong's team has the home field advantage. Even before the game has started, they are already ahead of the Tubo people in terms of momentum.
"This Yingguo is like me."
Li Longji looked at King Yong below who was holding the moon staff high and galloping around the stadium. He felt in a trance. He looked at Yang Taizhen sitting in his arms and said:
"In the past, my aunt and I supported my father's ascension to the throne. At that time, the court and the border were unstable. Tubo took the opportunity to send envoys to provoke and compete with each other."
In fact, Yang Yuhuan had heard this story several times, but she did not interrupt. Instead, she raised her head and listened expectantly.
"Since the heroine has been in charge of the country for a long time, the imperial army is not equipped with weapons and is no match for the Tubo people."
Hearing this, Lu Li guessed what happened next——
The whole audience shouted for Saburo, hoping that he could turn the tide and defeat the Tibetan mission.
Saburo was of course the then crown prince Li Longji. It was rumored that he was extremely skilled in the game and had once defeated ten players with four players.
And things happened just as Lu Li expected.
In that case, the late emperor Li Dan immediately ordered the prince to go to war, and he fulfilled his mission and reversed the situation under the watchful eyes of envoys and civil and military officials from various countries.
Maybe it's true, maybe it's a story deliberately made up to please a beautiful lady.
Others don't know.
Anyway, after listening to this, Yang Yuhuan's face was full of admiration, as if he had witnessed the young Saburo, riding a horse, rushing left and right, beating the Tibetan people to pieces, and showing his power in the arena.
At this time, the Turkic horse team also appeared on the stage. No one cheered for them. They were like twelve orphans, galloping around the field alone.
"Have you ever heard the story of the general who reached the Tianshan Mountains with three arrows, and the strong man who sang at the Han Pass?"
A big man wearing a hat suddenly spoke to break the awkwardness.
The Tibetan warrior next to him said frankly: "I heard about the famous Tang general Xue Rengui."
"This general, who was regarded as a god by the people of the Tang Dynasty, when he invaded Tibet, his entire army was wiped out and none of them returned. If it weren't for Zampu's kindness, he wouldn't even be qualified to be a prisoner..."
Step on a handful of them.
The method is disgraceful, but it is indeed very effective.
Thinking of the bravery of their fathers, the members of the Tubo cavalry cheered up and vowed to show their power outside the country.
And these words are not hidden from others, especially when the whole hall is silent and cheering, anyone who is not deaf can hear them.
The emperor, who was recalling how heroic he was as a boy, was furious, "They are so arrogant!"
Fortunately, Yang Taizhen comforted him in time, and Gao Lishi echoed from the side, saying that King Yong would teach these barbarians a lesson for the saint.
Not long after, the parade ceremony ended.
The men and horses from both sides began to line up in a line, with a total of twelve teams.
Yong Wang's side rides a royal horse. After careful selection and training, each one is strong and strong, and receives confrontation training to adapt to fierce collisions while taking into account flexibility.
The horses on the Tubo side are slightly smaller in size, but they have strong endurance, flexibility, and are good at galloping.
With the provocation just now, King Yong was filled with anger. He raised his eyes and looked outside the court, indicating that he would announce the start immediately and that he wanted to teach the Tibetan people a lesson.
So, a drum sounds!
The competition officially begins.
The rules are very simple. There are two short gates on each side of the court. The gates are painted red and painted. As long as you use a crescent-shaped stick to hit the fist-sized solid wooden ball into the opponent's gate, whoever wins.
"Fight for me, the Tang Dynasty!"
King Yong took the lead and rushed to the center of the field to fight for the first shot. The other warrior nations galloped forward or guarded the left and right.
bump!
A crisp sound exploded in the stadium, the head of the crescent stick lifted up a large piece of loess, the solid wooden ball flew high, and the competition began.
The sound of horse hooves exploded like thunder, and twenty-four knights were chasing him.
As long as the Warriors touch the ball, the audience will shout: "Color! Color! Color!"
When the ball fell into the hands of the Tubo people, everyone jeered and booed.
Unexpectedly, this atmosphere did not last long. At first, they were evenly matched, and they were fighting back and forth. But after a quarter of an hour, the Tubo people scored three goals in a row, and the warriors of Yongwangfu were overwhelmed and had no power to fight back. Only Yu Yongwang managed to hold on and scored a goal.
Seeing this, the Tibetan envoys laughed one after another and were extremely proud.
Who can bear such ridicule?
Being abused in front of your own home!
If he had not been self-aware, he would have rushed forward to meet the enemy for King Yong.
"Lux, what a resemblance."
The emperor sighed, with an inexplicable look in his eyes, "Do you remember those days?"
"The old slave remembers that Saburo was so heroic that he went into battle with a pole and led the soldiers to destroy the Tubo majesty."
Gao Lishi kept nodding, because he was one of them back then, and Pegasus guarded the emperor's side, charging into the battle with him.
"Emperor Cao Cao of Wei Dynasty once said that in his old age, martyrs are full of ambition. Today I will fight for my wife."
