Return to the rumor

The autumn grass is light, the horseshoe is light, and the horn bow is fast.

The wind blows the flag, the horse neighs, you come and go, and the winner has been decided on the target.

Yiyang Dou Ma patrolled forward for a long time, and after comparing the two, he pulled out the arrows that hit Tangci's red heart one by one, and observed the depth of the arrow marks, then looked at Tangci half a step behind him, and said indifferently : "I lost."

Tang Ci also smiled: "His Highness Cheng gave in, and I was lucky enough to win once."

Both Chi Liangjun and Lu He are not good at riding and shooting, and just now they just sat quietly on the back of the horse and watched along the edge of the field. At this moment, they walked slowly behind them, but it was Chi Liangjun who spoke first: "It's only one round, the right is right." It’s all about loosening your muscles and bones, how can you count? It’s still early, so let’s do a few more rounds!”

This Tang Ci looked extremely clever, but how could he be more sincere than Lu He?Unexpectedly, in front of the public, he tried his best to make the master lose face, and there is no reward for him.

Tang Ci stroked the mane of the horse under him, raised his head and smiled lightly: "It's also possible."

Glancing at Lu He who was riding a tall horse beside Chi Liangjun, seeing that her expression was still calm, Yi Yang quietly withdrew his gaze from her, threw away the broken arrow in his hand, and pretended not to be very serious. A caring look: "That being the case, let's fight another round. Archery alone is boring and boring. I wonder if Master Tang can play Juju?" He is a person who refuses to admit defeat. It is rare for him to suffer setbacks. Although most of them come from his underestimation of the enemy, but if he loses, he loses, and there is no room for sophistry.If the steps Chi Liangjun set up to save his face were the same as in the past, he would have been arrogant and refused to take a look at them, but at this moment, he was very unwilling to lose the opportunity to be in the limelight for no reason.

Chi Liangjun was also dumbfounded when he heard this. This bowing is a trick that noble and wealthy people like the Zanying family and even the royal family like to play. Before Tang resigned from the official position, he was only the son of a merchant. His highness deliberately made things difficult for others. , and pretended to be nothing, but his face was thicker than before.

Unexpectedly, Tang Ci smiled easily after hearing the words: "I know a thing or two."

So the group moved to the polo field again.

Five people were selected from the elite soldiers in the mansion, one with blue cloth strips on their left arms and one with red cloth strips on their left arms, and Chi Liangjun and Lu He jointly adjudicated the scoring.

There are 12 people in the two rows, and the twelve horses are all high-grade colts. After standing still in the field, the two confront each other, reining in the horses and stepping lightly, gearing up, eager to try.

An exquisite wooden ball the size of a fist spun into the air, and before it landed, a man in Tang's resignation queue who was eager for quick success swung his stick and put it under him. resignation.Tang Ci held the rein in his left hand and the club in his right. He used the crescent-shaped ball head to rotate the wooden ball, even leading the horse and the people. His figure was as fast as lightning.

Although Yiyang did not underestimate the enemy this time, after all, the stadium is changing rapidly, and it is extremely difficult to control the situation when people come and go. Seeing that Tang Ci is close to the goal, he hurriedly slapped his ass a few times and chased forward. Tang resigned and went with the bridle.

Seeing this, several people in Yiyang's team drove their horses to chase after them, and very tacitly formed a human wall between Tang Ci and the goal.

The corners of Tangci's mouth were slightly hooked, and his wrist was raised lightly, hitting the wooden ball that was rolling in a circle on the ground, flying over the towering human wall in front of him, heading towards the goal that was hundreds of steps away.

For a moment, everyone in the venue stopped and looked around.

When he came back to his senses again, he saw Tang Ci quietly chasing after him, swiping his stick again and running with the spinning wooden ball that fell on the ground not far away. it's too late.

Suddenly, a beautiful arc fell into the goal like a cloud in the sky, and with the sound of the gong, Tang Ci was ahead!

On the high platform, compared to Chi Liangjun's fidgeting and complaining, Lu He seemed much calmer. He ate the delicious melon without saying a word, but his eyes couldn't help but fixate on Tang Ci, who was actually a superb player who kept his skills hidden. Standing on a horse in a towel robe and black boots, the angry horse in fresh clothes is full of vigor and vigor, and the elite guards with blue cloth strips on their arms are surrounded by stars and cheering around her, while she only smiles at the corners of her mouth, not secretly delighted. Not arrogance, it is quite natural to be flattered or humiliated.

This noble boy is proficient in bowing, but Tang Ci is so proficient, Rao Lu He can't help but feel puzzled in his heart.

On the contrary, Yiyang also fixedly looked at Lu He, followed her line of sight to look at Tang Ci, and felt a little disappointed and annoyed in his heart. When Jiang met Lu He's eyes, he hurriedly turned his horse's head around, leaving only a tall Give her a slender back.

Xu Shi became more frustrated and courageous. After losing the first place in archery and archery, Yi Yang led the team to quickly win the second place.

Seeing that the sky was getting dark, it was changed to a best-of-three game system.

After winning a chip, Yiyang didn't care so much about winning or losing. Chasing and chasing after each other, Tang Ci almost reduced the entire huge stadium to a place where only the two of them played and played games. In fact, they are not equal.As a result, the final game will be particularly difficult, and the opponents will block the shots repeatedly. At first, everyone will sigh, but in the end, everyone will show fatigue and fatigue, and the best horses will also It was panting, and the horse's legs were trembling.

It was so easy, Yiyang hit a hit and won the game, but only because Tangci's mount was tired of running around, it was a few steps slower.

He reined in the horse and stopped, but the two front legs of the foal suddenly became weak, and he knelt down on the ground, Yiyang slackened and rolled off the horse's back.

Chi Liangjun, who watched the shooting that lasted for two hours, squinted his eyes and yawned, was startled when he saw this, and hurriedly jumped down the high platform, followed by Lu He, who also had a solemn expression—— If Yiyang got hurt somewhere because of the Juju with Tang Ci, everyone present would be unable to escape the responsibility.

As a result, when he looked closely, Yiyang got up with the help of Tang Ci, walked with a slight limp, patted Tang Ci on the shoulder, and shouted happily!

Tang Ci wanted to plead guilty, but seeing her bright and clear smile, she is not a narrow-minded person, and her appearance and facial features are indeed somewhat similar to her and even Jing Ci, and what's more, she was a naive child 12 years ago, so she let go of her two or three thoughts Originating from his father's hatred, he smiled and said: "Time is long, and we can fight again in the future."

After saying that, Tangci himself doubted the credibility of these words amusedly.

How long?

In the future...but there will be another battle.

But Yiyang happily agreed, with a smile on his face as if he had never been so happy in his life.

I wanted to invite Tang Ci to stay in the mansion for dinner, so I ordered the cook, and someone at the front door announced that a servant named Yutong had something urgent to tell Tang Ci.And Tangci also knew that at such a time, the fisherman would not come to find something important, so he hurriedly confessed his crime and left.

Although Yiyang didn't take some minor injuries to heart, Chi Liangjun dared to be careless and hurriedly ordered someone to summon the medical officer.

After Tang resigned and left, the medical officer who heard the news took his own pulse and checked the injuries. After personally dispensing the ointment, he ordered a few words and handed it over to the maid to apply the medicine.

Several thin and long bloodstains were scraped on the two calves, and the knees were bruised and purple. It was not a serious injury, but it was placed on the delicate and smooth skin like suet nephrite, which naturally made people feel pity.

Perhaps the dark green ointment soaked into the wound would inevitably be hot and irritating, Yiyang clenched his lower lip to endure the pain.

Chi Liangjun watched through a light curtain, feeling anxious and puzzled for a while, and couldn't help persuading him in a harmonious voice: "Your Highness, just breathe out when it hurts, you used to..."

The rest of the words were smashed into fragments by Yiyang's eye knife and swallowed back into his stomach. He didn't dare to speak again, and only stared desperately at Lu He who was watching silently.

Lu He was stunned for a long while, seeing Chi Liangjun's eyes sweep Yiyang for a while, and himself for a while, as if convulsed. It took a long time before he woke up.

Seeing Yiyang biting his thin and tender lips with traces of blood, he couldn't help cursing in his heart, didn't he just say that it doesn't hurt and it doesn't bother him, why does the pain make him look like I feel sorry for him?

After a little hesitation, he took a few steps forward, lifted the curtain, rolled up his wide sleeves, exposing his snow-skinned arms, stretched forward and said, "If Your Highness doesn't mind, I'd better bite my minister's arm to relieve the pain."

Chi Liangjun couldn't help but stare dumbfounded, his eyes widened: My darling, I just want you to talk for a while, to disturb her mind, and to avoid the pain and suffering in front of her eyes, you are willing to make such a sacrifice by yourself?

How did he know that this was just a trick that Ju Mengbai had used on Lu He before, trying everything, so Lu He reacted like this in an instant.

Glancing at the smooth and white arm in front of him, Yiyang turned his head away, frowned sullenly: "Who hurts? I don't hurt, you see you are covered in sweat, don't you hurry to take a bath?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he gasped for several breaths in pain, causing everyone in the room to burst into laughter.

Chi Liangjun sighed softly, this is actually why whenever Yiyang gets a minor injury or illness, the whole mansion waits with trepidation like walking on thin ice—His Royal Highness Yiyang, who is not afraid of anything, is afraid of pain, even to the bone, causing trouble Whenever the emperor heard that Yiyang was injured or sick, he had to rush to her side to accompany her.

Although the king's order cannot be violated, it is only to blame this face-saving master for having a very lovable and lovable appearance. At this moment, the pain is so severe, no matter how much he endures, the eyes of the two peach blossoms have gradually lightened a little Tears flashed.

Lu He didn't leave, and bowed to apologize, and then took advantage of Yiyang's anger, stretched the white and tender flesh on his arm to her mouth, and let her bite him.Originally, he planned to grit his teeth and endure the pain, but Yiyang's mouth was very merciful, but instead it was numb and itchy.

Little did he know that Yiyang clenched his fists, tilted his head slightly and secretly looked at Lu He's moist and jade-like jaw, sniggering shyly.

Tang Ci unfolded the memorial that Qin Yan handed to him, read it slowly, noticed whose memorial was written, and whom he impeached, and asked Qin Yan: "Huzhou Supervisory Censor Xu Liangping is considered calm among all the censors. Gentle and elegant, what has forced him to such a point, and he is also the chief envoy of Huxun Erzhou?"

Qin Yan caressed his beard, sighed, and said with a heavy heart: "The recent autumn harvest, the auspicious snow at the beginning of the year heralds a good year, and the spring and summer are almost free from disasters and harm. The five-day torrential rain broke down the embankment, flooded the farmland, and destroyed the grain warehouses in Huzhou, leaving millions of people homeless."

"What does that have to do with Xunzhou?"

Tang Ci's tone was flat, without the worry and anxiety that Qin Yan thought. He couldn't help trembling slightly in his heart, and his brows furrowed. After a long time, his face calmed down, and he said angrily: "Huzhou Chief Envoy Shen Xuzhou is afraid that this matter will spread to the capital. No guarantee, he and Yuan Junye, the chief minister of Xunzhou, have been close friends for many years, so the two colluded together, changed the river course privately, in an attempt to divert the flood to the Xunzhou river, in order to make major incidents into small ones. Report a small disaster to the imperial court, and when the money for the disaster relief is allocated, you can still take the opportunity to greed for money!" When he said that he was angry, he paced around several times, pointed to the top of his head, and said angrily, "God, it really doesn't last long!" Eyes? The rain is getting heavier and heavier, and the waterlogging disaster has not been alleviated, but it has affected several wealthy counties and counties in Xunzhou. The whole month! The disaster-stricken people in the two prefectures of Huxun have no one to ask for help. , there are hungry dead on the road, there are floating corpses in the river, and they even try their best to escape and beg for food and become refugees, and what's more, they cannibalize others!"

After years of not seeing Qin Yan in such a shape, Tang Ci was slightly stunned. After collecting his thoughts, he asked again: "The inspectors of the two states and the commander of the capital, Si Mofei, are in collusion with him? Otherwise, how could such a big accident be hidden until today?"

Qin Yan snorted coldly: "Five years ago, the embankment of the two prefectures in Huxun was renovated and repaired. The imperial court allocated funds to order the Ministry of Industry to cooperate with the three divisions of the two prefectures. Naturally, the inspectors and the commanders of the capital dispatched their own personnel. Several million taels Baiyin can't survive for five years, and it is unknown how much stolen money is hidden in the treasury of the Third Division for corruption. Furthermore, Shen Xuzhou and Yunzhou Inspectorate are both disciples of Han Ru, Marquis of Wu'an, so it is not surprising that there is a nest of snakes and rats. "

"A disciple of Han Ru?" Tang Ci sneered, "No wonder."

After a thorough discussion, he watched Tang Ci leave, and his wife Liu came in to serve tea. Seeing Qin Yan leaning against the door motionless, frowning even more than before, he hurriedly said a few words of concern.

The cold wind swept across the autumn night, Qin Yan looked in the direction of the majestic imperial city, couldn't help trembling all over, with complicated emotions in his cloudy eyes, shook his head and said with emotion: "I'm afraid that she is bent on revenge, and she has long forgotten that she is also a descendant of the royal family surnamed Tang in Dajin, Kyushu All the common people in the world are left behind by her."
