Just when everyone was extremely disappointed and thought that the two parties would not fight, the singing stopped, the two parties stood in two rows, and then started... wrestling!
All of them were big men with big arms and round waists. They hugged each other and started to touch each other, grab each other's waistband, pick out each other's crotch, and then tried to knock each other down and throw them away.
The scene suddenly became chaotic. It was all one-on-one, and everyone was throwing one another. If they fell, they would leave quickly. The winner would continue to find the next person to throw.
The atmosphere was inflamed again, and the people were shouting, not knowing which one to look at.
It was lively and exciting, but the faces of the monarchs and ministers were very ugly, and their expressions were as dark as water.
The Great Zhou Dynasty held martial arts performances, which were time-consuming and labor-intensive. They were for you to fight, not for you to perform traditional skills. How about wrestling on the prairie? How about wrestling in the Great Zhou Dynasty after a long journey?
If others don't abide by your own rules, no one will be happy if you change them.
This is not wrestling at all. This is a show of shame. After falling to the ground, he stepped on his feet and spat in the end.
It's just like the Olympic Games in later generations, or free fighting. Then the two players took out yo-yos from their arms to make floral ropes. The audience in the audience might think it was quite novel, and the organizers had to scold them.
Later generations can also fine or be disqualified from the competition, but Da Zhou can only stare, unable to get angry.
One after another, the big prairie men were thrown to the ground, and fewer and fewer people continued to beat them. In the blink of an eye, there were only about 20 people left among the nearly 300 people.
After all, they fell for a long time, panting heavily, and began to choose their opponents.
In comparison, Liang Rong had more people left, thirteen, while Turks only had eight left.
The two sides looked at each other for a while and continued to throw.
The people also began to cheer for them and shouted loudly.
That bitch, you killed that guy who killed you with a thousand swords...
Rinen is pressing him hard...
Little son of a bitch...
Han You in the stands also figured out that it was okay to entertain the public, as long as the people were happy.
In the end, the smaller Turkic team won, with five people still standing.
When it was time for both parties to get up, get dressed, and pick up a knife, the officials from the Ministry of Etiquette didn't need to say anything and just left the scene.
This is undoubtedly a slap in the face to the Great Zhou Dynasty. They don't take your Great Zhou Dynasty seriously at all.
Many people looked at Han You again, especially many courtiers, their eyes shining with strange light.
Honglu Temple is responsible for martial arts performances, and this has been the case in previous years.
No matter how many deals Honglu Temple made secretly, at least in the past years, he did not embarrass anyone when he played Wukang Dynasty, and he was very considerate to the court.
Now that you, Han You, insist on sponsoring this matter, you have no secret deal. As a result, people are too lazy to coddle you without taking any benefits. This time, it is not you, Han You, or the Yidao Guards who are losing, but the emperor, People in the palace and court!
Everything else is easy to talk about. It concerns the face of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Han You, the commander of the Yi Dao Guard who is responsible for arresting martial arts affairs, will not die or lose his skin. At least he will become a laughing stock. If he interferes with other yamen in the future. The affairs of the government office and martial arts performances will also become his black spots and an excuse for rejection by other government offices.
The old man in the "container" was quite open and did not blame Han You. Instead, he stood with his hands behind his hands and looked as normal.
"As early as after the Turkic and Liangrong envoys entered the capital, I knew that they were unruly and unruly. When they entered the palace to meet them, it confirmed what I was thinking. I am not surprised that they behaved like this."
Lao Ba smiled calmly: "Face is earned, not bought with money. Anyone can sing loudly with you, anyone can hug you and fall to the ground. Only the army of Zhou Dynasty will not lose face." , just ask the boys to find it."
King Yan glanced sideways at Lao Ba, admiring him in his heart.
What is the pattern? This is that when something goes wrong and such a big person is lost, the first thing you do is not blame others for being incompetent and get angry, but think of ways to solve it.
Of course, there are also people, so Han You must be responsible for this matter. If it were the previous Honglu Temple Minister Zhang Wending or Shao Qing Shao Hong, Lao Ba would have called them up and yelled at them.
"What your Majesty said is absolutely true."
Concubine De, who was sitting next to her, had a cold light in her almond eyes: "Tujue and Liangrong don't give face to the Great Zhou, so naturally I, the good man of the Great Zhou, will not give them face. How arrogant just now, when they faced off against my army of the Great Zhou, I told them to do so. How embarrassing, Yan'er."
"My son is here."
Zhou Yan quickly stood up.
"Go down below and tell me that the tiger warriors of the Great Zhou Dynasty defeated the Liang Rong and the Turks. Each person in the palace will be rewarded with ten swords."
"Uh..." Zhou Yan looked a little embarrassed: "I see, it's not so necessary."
"what for?"
"My mentor has said before that those who participate in the martial arts performance, regardless of winning or losing, will receive a hundred prizes and a building to be built in the Four Seasons Villa next year."
Concubine De's pretty face was slightly red, and then she looked at Zhongsun Wushuang and the three daughters: "Compared with Han You in the palace, you are still more generous. You are very lucky to have found a wealthy husband."
Feng Wenyan's expression changed slightly as he watched the excitement.
This sounds a bit awkward. The palace only rewards ten guans, but Han You rewards a hundred guans and returns the house. If you think about it carefully, Empress Dowager De's words seem to have some other profound meaning.
Feng Wenyan couldn't help but look at the emperor, feeling a little worried in his heart, fearing that the emperor would think too much.
As expected, the emperor was unhappy and shouted to Concubine De: "What's the point of showing off? The money you want to reward the soldiers was sent to the palace by Han You. Don't be conspicuous there."
Concubine De was not happy: "Who used your money? Han Youke saved a lot of money in Yan'er's name, using Yan'er's money."
"Is there another matter?" Lao Ba's eyes lit up: "How come I don't know about this? Why did I save money? How much money did I save?"
Zhou Yan fell silent. He knew Lao Ba's virtue and obviously didn't want to talk about it.
Concubine De said proudly: "Han You said that in the future Yan'er will go to the fiefdom to open a mansion and build teeth. It can't be done without money. He has been saving money for Yan'er since last year and has already said hello to the Ministry of Household Affairs. I want to If you want to take it out, if it works, it doesn't mean it won't work. Either Yan'er will take up the fiefdom, or I, the mother-in-law, will be qualified to take it."
King Yan was extremely speechless. What kind of couple are they? The parents don't save money for their children, but let the master save money? ah
"This..." Lao Ba was unhappy: "I, the father, can't take it too?"
Concubine De was even more proud: "Han You specifically told your Majesty, especially Your Majesty, that Your Majesty is not allowed to take it."
King Yan's heart was aroused again. This was too damn targeted. Wasn't Han You seeking death?
Looking at the emperor, Lao Ba's expression turned awkward. He scratched his chin and then laughed: "Han You still understands me."
Feng Wenyan: "..."
"Yan'er, come."
Lao Ba waved his hand: "Come to me."
Zhou Yan took a step back: "I don't want to go."
"Get over here!"
"Oh." Zhou Yan sighed and walked over honestly.
While stroking Zhou Yan's head, Lao Ba asked with a smile: "Tell me, how much money has your good mentor saved for you?"
"Saved...saved..." Zhou Yan hesitated: "Nearly ten thousand."
"Only ten thousand guan?"
Now that Lao Ba has met people in the market, he suddenly lost interest: "A mere ten thousand yuan is not worth asking you, so get out."
Zhou Yan ran away happily and continued to pick melon seeds for Concubine De and Wu Mingyue.
Feng Wenyan didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He knew that Han You was rich and saved money for the prince. Although ten thousand was a lot, he felt that it was hard to get rid of it.
"Wait!"
Lao Ba's expression suddenly changed, he turned around and looked at Zhou Yan, frowning and said: "Are you really only 10,000?"
Zhou Yan swallowed a mouthful of saliva: "About ten thousand."
"Really?"
"Really, I dare not deceive my father."
"No, you are Han You's most beloved disciple. He loves you more than me and your mother. How could you only save 10,000 yuan?"
Zhou Yan's eyes were a little dodgey: "It's really only ten thousand."
Lao Ba was dubious: "Ten thousand guan?"
Zhou Yan opened his mouth, and when he thought that Lao Ba might ask the Ministry of Household Affairs and the Bank, he sighed like a young adult: "Mother."
"What mother?"
Zhou Yan: "Ten thousand acres."
"What ten thousand acres?"
"Ten thousand acres of land."
Lao Ba's eyes were round and round, and he grinned and sucked in the cold air.
Feng Wenyan was also dumbfounded. Only De Fei looked disdainful, thinking that Lao Ba had never seen the world. Of course, she also forgot that she was grinning bigger than Lao Ba when she first learned about this.
"Ten thousand acres of land?" Lao Ba's chest heaved up and down: "What's the land deed?"
"Well, my mentor copied it in the south, and the Zhao family wanted to take it. My mentor thought it was cheap, so most of it was sent to the palace. The rest, my mentor wanted to reward the soldiers. Who knows there are still a lot left. In the end, it was all put in the name of the son-in-law, and it was said that when the fiefdom was obtained in the future, it would be sold off to build a palace."
After saying that, Zhou Yan shrank his neck, ready to be beaten at any time.
Unexpectedly, Lao Ba walked forward without even looking at him, and sat next to Concubine De, his face full of tenderness.
"My dear concubine, my dear concubine, you know, I... pity you the most..."
Before she could finish her words, Concubine De pushed Lao Ba away and said, "No matter what, I won't touch Yan'er's place. If you are powerful, I will go to find Han You."
Feng Wenyan raised his mind for the third time. What happened to Concubine De? She always deflected conflicts. Wasn't this trying to instigate the emperor's relationship with Han You?
As expected, Lao Ba cursed and shouted angrily: "If I can get it from Han You, what can I do to coax you, an old woman?"
Feng Wenyan turned around and looked for Han You's figure below.
He really wanted to ask, what is Han You's identity, the Supreme Emperor?
Feng Wenyan's expression suddenly changed slightly.
He remembered the matter of standing up, but he had never made it public. Could it be that it was not Concubine De, but...
