"Brother Renshou, you're not talking about those ladies in the stands, are you?"
"Who else could it be if they weren't them?" Jin Renwen asked with a smile: "You have been in Chang'an for a while, haven't you heard of those legends about Baiqi? The "human appearance" that can open the way for the Holy Knight, once it is Those fairies have taken a fancy to it, so it won’t just be a meteoric rise?”
"I've been so busy these days, how can I have the time to think about this!" Wang Wenzuo replied angrily. The "Hundred Cavalry" mentioned by Jin Renwen were the guards of honor for the emperor in the North Gate Forbidden Army. Whenever he went on a hunting trip, He was ordered to hold a bow and arrow in front of the royal horse and shoot at him. These knights not only had to have excellent riding and martial arts skills, but also had certain requirements for their appearance. Naturally, they became popular with the ladies of the time. There were also various legends in Chang'an City. The six leaders of the East Palace were naturally envious. They were so active this time and wanted to show off their skills in front of the ladies of Chang'an.
"That's really a pity!" Jin Renwen said with a smile: "Did you know? I've been out for banquets in the past few days, and there have been several "fairies" asking for information about you in a roundabout way."
"Didn't you tell them that I wouldn't stay in Chang'an for a long time?" Wang Wenzuo asked angrily.
"It's not a problem!" Jin Renwen said with a smile: "I don't want to stay with you forever as a married couple. It's just a one-night stand. I don't care how long you stay in Chang'an!"
"An overnight pleasure? Are these ladies so open-minded?"
"Open? Yes, Sanlang is a good word. I will remember to tell that to the princess next time!" Jin Renwen said with a smile: "Think about those women who have everything, power, money, enjoyment. Now What else can you do? They all like monks, not to mention a horse athlete like you who is both civilized and martial arts? What do you think? Have you considered it?"
"Forget it!" Wang Wenzuo hesitated for a moment and said with a wry smile: "It's better not to cause trouble!"
"That's not bad!" Jin Renwen nodded approvingly: "After all, you are different from those monks and athletes. The Ministry of War will issue a document soon. Marching Sima, officials from the fifth rank down, must consider *** It’s time to meet!”
"So fast?" Wang Wenzuo was startled: "Hasn't the Yamen not finished the errands before the Lantern Festival? How do you know?"
"There was the brother-in-law of the Minister of War at the banquet the night before yesterday. Listen to what he said!" Jin Renwen pointed his finger at the sky: "The bosses are urging me hard. I think they will send out the message tomorrow. Congratulations to Wang Sima! However, the promotion of casual officials is not so fast. I will probably give you a Colonel Zhaowu, a Deputy Lieutenant Zhaowu, etc., and it will take a few years for you to slowly catch up."
"It's no problem! It's also thanks to Brother Renshou's help!" Wang Wenzuo hurriedly returned the gift. Of course he knew that he could be promoted to the key position of Army Commander of Xiongjin Governor's Mansion so smoothly, even with the approval of the Emperor and Queen, among them Jin Ren Wen also contributed, otherwise his big step from joining the army as a soldier to marching as a Sima would not have been so smooth. As for the casual officials, he didn't care about it. Anyway, he just wanted to have an official position to do things, and he didn't care about rank.
"Let's not say thank you or thank you between you and me!" Jin Renwen waved his hand: "After this game is over, leave as soon as you can. The water in Chang'an is too deep!"
"Why did Brother Renshou say that?" Wang Wenzuo glanced at Jin Renwen in surprise. He knew that he didn't want to stay in Chang'an, but this was the first time for him to be urged directly like this. There must be something hidden in it.
Jin Renwen did not answer Wang Wenzuo's question. He stood up and bowed respectfully toward the center of the north stand: "The Holy Master has arrived!"
Long live! Long live!
The cheers were weak and sparse at first, then became louder and more uniform, causing echoes around the polo ground. Everyone's eyes turned to the north stands. At this moment, two red-faced cheers The yellow umbrella slowly moved to the center of the northern stand, which was the guard of honor for the emperor and the queen.
Li Zhi sat on the chariot, perhaps to show that he was having fun with the people today. This time he was not wearing the imperial robes worn when the emperor formally came to court, but was wearing a red and yellow round-collared tight-sleeved robe with a folded turban. , nine-ring belt, Liuhe boots, beside him is Empress Wu's small-sleeved narrow dress, plus half arms, a silk shawl around the shoulders, a tight-fitting long skirt tied to the chest, and a cloth wrapped around the head. Both the couple are wearing shorts that are about to mount a horse. The attire is quite suitable for the polo match that is about to begin. @ESSENTIAL\/SHUKEG·No mistake first release~~
"Which side is the East Palace?" Li Zhi asked with interest.
"That's the one warming up on the court!" On duty. (This chapter is not finished yet!)
Chapter 46 Holy Driver
The chamberlain quickly replied.
"Warm up? What does this mean?" Li Zhi asked.
"Just let the horse run around first and sweat a little, so as not to be easily injured in the fight later! Also get used to the venue!"
"Not bad!" Li Zhi held up his palms and smiled: "The body should be warmed up first so that it is less likely to be injured. Warming up is a good word. Where are the personnel of the North Gate Forbidden Army? Don't they warm up?"
"Both sides have two quarters of an hour to warm up. The North Gate Forbidden Army has already warmed up!"
"Well! This is only fair!" Li Zhi nodded with satisfaction: "What rules are we following today?"
"Whoever gets the twelve chips first wins!"
"Twelve chips?" Li Zhi smiled: "Go and talk to the North Gate Imperial Guard. After all, the prince is the beloved son of a widower, so he has to let the East Palace get a few chips!"
"My slave obeys the order!" the waiter responded and left quickly. The Wu family next to him snorted coldly: "Your Majesty, do you think the North Gate Forbidden Army will definitely win?"
"Hahaha!" Li Zhi said with a smile: "I often played polo when I was the prince. The equestrian skills, horses, and ball skills of the North Gate Guards are much better than those of the East Palace. If we follow the rules of whoever gets the money first, then whoever wins, There is still a chance of luck on the East Palace side. With the rule of twelve chips, Dong Palace has no chance of winning at all. If Dong Palace can’t get even one chip, Hong’er’s face will not look good!”
"Your Majesty is so partial, aren't you afraid that Dong Palace will win?"
"Donggong won? How is this possible? Wu, you have never played polo, so you don't know the secrets. Correct update@" Li Zhi laughed: "Well, if Donggong really wins, then from now on, we will guard the Xuanwu Gate. The duties of the North Gate Guards and the Sixth Commander of the East Palace will take turns, with the North Gate Guards taking the first half of the month and the East Palace Sixth Commander the second half of the month!"
Empress Wu snorted coldly, feeling a little unhappy. It turns out that Chang'an City in the Tang Dynasty was built by Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty and was located on the southern slope of Longshouyuan. Its terrain is higher in the north and lower in the south, and the palace city is located in the north of the entire city. Therefore, the Xuanwu Gate at the north gate of the palace city is the commanding height of the entire palace city and even the entire city of Chang'an. Therefore, after Li Yuan established the Tang Dynasty, he garrisoned troops at Beimen. However, the sources of the troops at this time were similar to those of other armies, including dragon soldiers and government soldiers from various places. The fiercest battle in the Xuanwumen Incident took place here. The men of Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji once stormed here, until Li Shimin sent someone to bring the heads of Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji to show to the second king's men. The King of Qi and the Prince Only then did the subordinates collapse. .
