The ball used in polo is not a cuju ball, but a wooden ball only the size of a fist. For beauty and durability, a layer of red paint is applied to the surface, which is now in the hands of the magistrate.

At this moment, the two teams on the field have already set up their stances, holding clubs and waiting for the start of the game. The club used for playing polo is like an upside-down cane, several feet long and the top is curved like a crescent moon, so it is called "moon rod", and some clubs are also painted with colorful decorations.

Accompanied by a drum beat, the polo was thrown high in the center, and ten horses roared up and began to compete fiercely for it.

In an instant, I saw many horses galloping fast on the field, each showing off their equestrian and ball skills. Ten sticks swiped again and again, hitting the small polo directly, and with the swing of the stick, the polo flew back and forth in the air, and occasionally the dust picked up by the sticks also flew in the air, adding to the intensity of the scene. , provoked a lot of applause from the knowledgable people on the stage.

For the Prince of Zhongshan, who saw this game for the first time and didn't even know the rules, the situation on the field was extremely chaotic. But his eyes were no longer focused on the game itself, and all his energy was placed on the daughter of Zhao Guogong who was wearing a mink uniform.

According to Zhai Li, Zhao people like to play polo because this sport is very confrontational and impactful, and it is suitable for practicing martial arts. Among women, they usually play ball on foot. Only the best lord in the palace doesn't like women's games, so she chooses from her maids who are physically fit and can ride horses, and teach them the art of kicking.

However, in Xian Yuyan's view, these women can at most play in the palace by themselves. If they take them out to compete with those tall and strong Yulin guards who are good at riding, I am afraid they will lose very badly.

The current situation was exactly what he imagined. The two teams of equal numbers seemed to be the winner at the beginning. The female riders were slightly inferior in terms of skills and riding skills. From the beginning, most of them were feathers. Lin Wei is in control of the ball.

Zhai Li told Xian Yuyan that the rules of Zhao Ren playing polo are as follows. The two teams are divided into two teams to guard the goal. After serving, the two teams compete to score the ball into the opponent's goal. , The game is divided into the first and second half. After two incense sticks, the team with the most points wins.

Seeing that Yu Linwei, who was riding a **** horse, was about to hit the ball again, suddenly a white shadow flashed past him, like a galloping speed, and swept from his side. The horse was decorated with a red tassel made of yak tails. It is Zhao Jia's horse!

Zhao Jia seemed to be one with a white horse. On the back of the running horse, she leaned sideways, turned her arms, and pressed her tightly against the horse's belly. She held the moon stick in her right hand, and with a flick of a wave, knocked the polo from the point where she was about to hit. Yulinwei, who was holding the ball, grabbed it from his hand! Rush on the horse, break into the enemy's line, hit hard, and score the goal with the polo!

"Wonderful!" This was a beautiful cut, and cheers resounded in the sky for a while, and even Xian Yuyan, who didn't know much about polo, cheered Zhao Jia loudly.

Xian Yuyan is from Baidi. Although he has never played polo, he is very familiar with horses. You must know that horses are extremely fast when they are galloping. It is not easy for the riders to control the horses. Distracted to hit the moving ball, which is flying around faster than a horse. Not only that, riders also need to prepare for attack, defense and cooperation, which is no less difficult than a real prairie horse-shooting battle!

Therefore, this sport requires a lot of bravery and decisiveness of the riders themselves. If they are not brave enough and back off for a while, they will lose the chance to hit the ball.

In this way, Zhao Jia is not only excellent at riding, but also bold and careful, so that she can have such a wonderful performance. For a time, Xian Yuyan couldn't help but admire this little girl.

The next game was still fierce, with the sound of slamming like thunder, and horses flying around, changing, dazzling and overwhelmed. However, I saw Zhao Jia, a conspicuous white horse, rushing from east to west among the black horses. The wind returned and the electricity was violent, and he went forward without any direction. He bent on both sides of the horse and repeatedly hit the ball. Arm strength is great, unlike ordinary women who can only weave. And every time her ins and outs were unexpected, she started to win some points back for her team.

However, in sports, women are not as good as men after all. The Yulin guards are strong and strong, and the cooperation between the team members is quite tacit. They hit the ball, pass the ball, and shoot right away. The women's team catches up.

But when we got to the back, seeing that the palace maids were already dripping with sweat, and even had no strength to swing the club, the Yulin guards also showed a tacit "fatigue", but Zhao Jia was still focused, and the whole kicking field seemed to be She staged her stage, divided the **** and scythes, and folded their arms... like lightning and thunder, even more extraordinary.

For a while, Xian Yuyan only felt that this was a real war, and Zhao Jia was the cavalry general who turned the tide!

...

"Even cavalry strikes Ju Rang, skillful and ingenious!"

It wasn't just Xian Yuyan who felt this way, Zhao Wuxi also sat on the throne, staring intently at his little sister.

The eldest brother is like a father, and his relationship with her is not so much a brother and sister, but a father and daughter. Every risky move she made made Wu Xie secretly sweat, and some regretted agreeing to her so easily. This situation is even more tense than directing the army to fight!

And every time she scored, Zhao Hou showed a sincere smile.

Perhaps because of the frequent running, this willful little girl is taller and healthier than girls of the same age, but she is not interested in female red, and prefers to ride horses and kick Juju. Zhao Wuxi once tried to "correct" her, but after the little girl cried and made trouble, she gave up, thinking that let her go.

Before she knew it, Zhao Jia was almost fifteen years old, and the woman was fifteen years old. Before Zhao Wuxi asked her what gift she wanted in her age, she actually asked Zhao Hou to give her a complete set of polo clothing, horses, clubs, etc. and let her form a team to fight with Yu Linwei in public in front of everyone!

This request caused an uproar in Changle Palace. Zhao Jia's mother suspected that she was going crazy, but Zhao Wuxi had already agreed to do anything, so she could only bite the bullet and agree, just thinking about letting her celebrate her fifteenth birthday. Happy and happy today.

"Let her go..." Seeing Zhao Jia scoring another goal, Zhao Wuxi said to Ji Ying, who was also worried: "After she gets married, she will talk about marriage, I'm afraid she can't be so naive anymore. It's **** up."

"This wild girl, who dances swords and bows all day long and hits the horse on horseback, who dares to ask her?" Ji Ying was even more worried, the elder sister was like a mother, and the younger sister was also like a daughter to her.

"That's not necessarily true." Zhao Wuqi looked at the young people in the stands who cheered Zhao Jia's every move, and showed a gratified smile.

He also did not expect that his little sister would be so popular among the meritorious children of Yecheng, and her peers were applauding her for her heroic appearance. This may be due to the fact that Zhao Wuxi has been in business for ten years and has changed customs. In Zhao's upstart circle, the spirit of martial arts has been everywhere, and even the tolerance for women is comparable to the prosperous Tang...

In the later Tang Dynasty, it was common for women to play polo in public places.

Whenever China is a majestic era, such as the Han and Tang Dynasties, men will focus their energy on pioneering and enterprising, and they will be more generous to women. Only in those times of inferiority and weakness, do incompetent men spread their prestige on their women, and produce a deformed aesthetic that is completely contrary to biological instinct, such as foot binding.

Fortunately, in this era, there is no rational teaching to mutilate the fresh lives of young girls, and Zhao Wuxi hopes that there will never be.

Although there are clear rules in his Changle Palace, all ladies and beauties have certain freedom: Le Lingzi can study her medical skills, Ji Ying can raise her white deer, Kong Jiao can be her bookworm; Bo Mi While patiently listening to his son's talk about Confucianism, he could sew clothes for his younger brother who was a messenger of Zhao and Wu in Wu State; Xishi could finally no longer hide himself, swaying barefoot in the stream, in the absence of no one. Dancing the sword for Zhao Wuxi in the moonlit night - the sword that the Yue girl taught her.

So thinking about it this way, Zhao Wuxi didn't think that Zhao Jia's preferences were shocking.

In the blink of an eye, the game has ended with the sound of gongs and cheers. The women's team defeated Yulinwei by one point. Of course, everyone with a discerning eye knows that this was at the behest of Zhao Hou, and the boys of Yulinwei deliberately released water. , it's not ashamed to let the male and female win the first game...

However, some people are not happy.

...

"The winner will take the stage and receive a reward! A horse is rewarded! A golden moon stick! A silver ball!"

Under the attention of all the people, Zhao Jia jumped down from the stand without looking at the horse that the magistrate was leading in front of her. Salute - the salute of the gentleman!

She wears a man's leather crown, her black hair on the temples has been wet with sweat, and the pair of thin eyebrows under the crown are like flying swallow's wings, which is quite heroic; the wheat-colored cheeks are slightly red, healthy and full Vitality, this is a sign of walking in the sun; when she raised her head, her eyes were extremely bright, her tightly pursed lips were red and moving, but she showed a bit of unconvinced stubbornness.

"There is a girl in my family who is growing up..." In the blink of an eye, fifteen years have passed, and Zhao Wuxi has also entered middle age. His eldest son Zhao Cao, who is also the same age as Zhao Jia, has now returned to him. , studied in the Linzhang Academy, and was often instructed by him to learn how to manage the place.

He got up, took the Golden Moon Staff from Yousi, and wanted to give it to the little sister as a gift for her and her new year.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Jia didn't care about the winner's prize, but said angrily: "The Yulin guards haven't done their best, Jia urges you to play again in the future!"

After saying this, Zhao Jia raised his head again and questioned Zhao Wuxi, "Did my brother instruct him to let the soldiers give in?"

This time, Zhao Wuxi, who had already raised the golden ball and was about to hand it to her, was a little embarrassed, but Le Lingzi, the lady of the palace who was sitting next to him, helped him relieve the siege: "Jia, you are your daughter-in-law, and your generation will not dare to hurt you. How about you?"

"The stadium is like a battlefield. The two teams hit the ball like two armies fighting each other. Can they give each other on the pitch, and can they give up on the battlefield?"

A fifteen-year-old girl, no matter how mature she looks, she is pure after all, and adults treat it as a child's play. She has become serious and said stubbornly: "Jianning would like to lose as much as she can, and she does not want to win vilely in the name of a male or female!"

It wasn't until Ji Ying joined in and told the little girl not to mess around in public, she stopped and took the golden ball with a pouted mouth, but after learning that it was made by Zhao Wuxi for her, she was grateful. Glancing at my brother.

"Brother remembering Jia's birthday is the best gift for Jiji."

"It's rare to be sensible once." Zhao Wuxi couldn't help laughing and crying. With a grimace from his sister, he felt a lot better. With a big wave of his hand, everyone who watched the kick today stayed behind. After dark, he was in Changle Palace. There is also a feast. For the sake of his little birthday star, Uncle Huaxia has taken great pains.

...

"The prince's care for the good master is far more than for the few little daughters..." On the way back to Yecheng, the nobles of the Zhao state who saw today's scene were talking.

"More than that, in my opinion, it's almost more than a few young masters, even the prince!"

The voice gradually became lower, and when he went away, Zhai Li was thoughtful, and Xian Yuyan, who was riding behind him, had not recovered from today's surprise.

"I never thought that Zhao's daughter-in-law was such a character..."

When Zhao Jia was on stage, Xian Yuyan was fortunate to see her up close, but he couldn't take his eyes away with just one look. She is very beautiful, and this kind of beauty is different from the delicate and delicate beauty. In this girl, yin and yang, softness and rigidity seem to be perfectly combined.

"Prince, Prince?" Zhai Li called several times before calling Xian Yuyan back to reality from his aftertaste.

"Prince, what does this beautiful master think?"

"Fantastic!"

"That's good~lightnovelpub.net~ Your Majesty asked the prince to come to Yecheng for what, does the prince still remember?"

"Father, I want to marry Zhao..." Thinking of this, Xian Yuyan's eyes suddenly became eager: "Doctor, could it be..."

"That's right." Zhai Li laughed and said, "There is only one good master who can marry the daughters of Zhao State. Back then, when Duke Lou of Chen State married Da Ji, the daughter of King Wu of Zhou, Chen State benefited from it for many generations. I don’t know if the prince heard the words of the people. Zhao Hou dotes on his sister. If the prince can marry this girl as his wife, Zhongshan will definitely get an excellent support. Zhao Hounian will definitely be in Zhongshan with Yan in terms of brother and sister love. When there is time in the country, help Zhongshan!"

"Dashan, a slender lady, a gentleman is so arrogant!"

This is really in his arms! Xian Yuyan was ecstatic, and could not find other words to describe it, so a sentence that didn't quite match came out of her mouth, regardless of whether Zhao Jia was considered a "lady" or not. Immediately, he thought of the admiring eyes of Zhao Jia's children and Qin country's protons when they looked at Zhao Jia today, and he felt a sense of crisis, and hurriedly said to Zhai Li: "Doctor, it's not too late, we will go back to the library immediately to prepare gifts. Tomorrow, I will go to the palace to ask Zhao Hou to marry him!"
