Chapter 305 World 7: Polo
Chapter 305 World 7: Polo
The other party's eyes were very vague, but she happened to turn over to see who was coming today.
Just in time to catch that contemptuous and mocking look.
Tu Qingyu:? ? ?
Is she okay?
Dabao: "She won't cause trouble again, right?"
Tu Qingyu: "I heard that she vomited the worst after that day and had nightmares for half a month. I don't think so."
Dabao: "Then she is..."
Tu Qingyu: "I'm afraid you think you are good at riding and playing polo, so you want to overwhelm me here?"
In other words, she wanted to let the people in the capital know that she was from a small family, and she wanted the imperial emissaries in the capital to isolate her and look down on her?
Isn't this too naive?
Has this person really been in the palace for how many years and is he twenty-two this year?
Dabao: "You are indeed very naive. There are many interests in Beijing. As long as you are the most favored empress in the palace, no matter what you do, countless people are bound to come to you."
Tu Qingyu: "I'm still afraid, but I just feel that as long as I don't do anything, Si Chao won't punish her."
"What's wrong?" Si Chao, who was standing next to her, noticed her emotions immediately.
She shook her head, "It's okay."
"Sister Zhaoyi must have never seen such a scene, and she is not used to it for a while." Zhao Xiuyi came over and saluted, "See the Emperor, Your Majesty Wan'an, I have seen Empress De Fei, Empress Wan'an has met Sister Zhaoyi."
Her gestures were sufficient and her words were sincere, making it impossible to tell that her words were sarcastic.
But this sentence was enough for everyone in Beijing to pay attention to Tu Qingyu.
After the salute, I don’t know how many eyes looked over me, both openly and secretly.
It was also the first time for everyone in the capital to see the famous Empress Zhaoyi.
The first impression is that of beauty, it is so beautiful.
The aqua blue palace dress is bright and elegant with a unique sense of coolness.
Many people were subconsciously stunned. If the etiquette engraved in their bones hadn't made them lower their heads subconsciously, if they had watched for a while longer, they would have been defeated by Si Chao.
Female relatives don’t have so many taboos.
Duke Qingguo's wife stood up directly and said, "Your Majesty, you are truly a creature of heaven. Just when you came in, I was dumbfounded. I have never seen such a beautiful person."
Tu Qingyu nodded towards her, "Thank you, Madam Duke, for the compliment."
"This is not a compliment, I am stating the facts." She looked kind-hearted and said flattering words, but there was no flattery in her eyes, which made people feel disgusted.
After saying that, she looked at Si Chao again, "How is your Majesty these days? The old lady asked my wife to say hello to His Majesty."
"I'm very good." Si Chao still gave Qing Guo Gong's face, "Madam also wants to say hello to the old man on my behalf."
The old man here is the previous Duke of Qing, and he also made great contributions to Daxuan.
Later, when he returned to the court, he handed over his military talisman. He showed no attachment to power and acted as if he was loyal to the emperor and patriotic.
The royal family has always given preferential treatment to the Duke of Qing.
"My wife thanked the Holy Father for her condolences. The old man is in good health, and he was still clamoring to drink the peach blossom wine brewed by his granddaughter. It was just rainy the past two days, and his old problems recurred. Otherwise, today I also want to join in the fun."
"Have you been to see the imperial doctor?"
"I've seen it. It's all an old problem. Your Majesty, I'm thinking of you."
After Mrs. Qingguo spoke, Si Chao chatted a few words with some old officials.
When the time comes, the polo match begins.
This dynasty advocates polo and Cuju, and even the daughter's family has many good polo players.
There were quite a few women in the two teams on the field today.
The two teams that played in the first round looked like teenagers in their 14s and 15s, with smiles on their faces and full of youth.
After the twenty-four embroidered flags and empty flag stands were brought up, the referee waved the flag in his hand, and the twenty people on the field immediately started to move their horses.
"Drive! Drive—!"
"Over there, Ah Sheng, follow up!"
Among them, there was a girl in red who was the most powerful, but just after the game started, she had already scored a goal and won the flag.
"That seems to be the legitimate daughter of the Zhongyong Hou family. I heard that her polo skills are the best among the ladies in the capital today." A woman sitting there said with admiration in her eyes.
With the development of polo, it has become more than just a fun game.
The powerful people in Beijing organize polo matches, which often include socializing, seeing each other, etc.
More than half of the young people here, regardless of gender, are not engaged.
There are still unmarried people of the right age in the family, but they are not allowed to be watched carefully.
Wang Jieyu curled her lips when she heard this, feeling very dissatisfied.
She quietly got up from her seat and left.
When he came back, he was already wearing a light yellow riding uniform.
Light yellow and delicate, she does have a good appearance.
When walking by, it attracted some attention.
This made her even more proud, and she was going to overwhelm Tu Qingyu today.
She walked up to Si Chao and said, "Your Majesty, I haven't touched my concubine for a long time, and I want to give it a try."
Si Chao didn't care much about what she wanted to do, as long as it didn't hinder Tu Qingyu.
He waved his hand, indicating that she could do as she pleased.
After the first game was over, Wang Jieyu came on the court.
The Holy Emperor's concubine came on stage, and naturally more people focused their attention on the court.
"Empress Jieyu is really powerful. She is on par with the child from Zhongyonghou's family."
"Evenly matched? I don't think so. The child from Zhongyonghou's family has already competed in a competition. Maybe his physical strength can't keep up."
"Hey, it's in, it's in, Empress Jieyu has scored!"
"Don't worry, it's just the first goal, the situation is still unclear."
……
This game lasted for almost half an hour. It was very exciting. The situation on the court changed rapidly and the spectators were dazzled.
In the end, Wang Jieyu narrowly won by one goal.
It seems that her fighting style was too desperate. No matter how young and ignorant the people on the court were, they knew that she was the emperor's concubine and could not hurt her.
Wang Jieyu walked step by step in front of Si Chao and Tu Qingyu amidst the applause of the whole hall, with pride on her face.
"Your Majesty, I live up to your Majesty's high expectations."
Si Chao:? ? ?
Who gave her high hopes?
He said calmly, "Very good, wide handle, reward."
But Wang Jieyu was not satisfied with this. She looked at Tu Qingyu and said, "That day, Empress Zhaoyi said that you have superb riding skills and are very knowledgeable in polo. I wonder if I have the honor to bet on the empress's style." .”
As soon as the words came out, Si Chao frowned.
The princes, ministers, and ladies in the audience also looked at Tu Qingyu.
Everyone knows that Tu Jieyu came from a small place in the south. The people in the south are not as open as the people in the capital. Not to mention small places, even noble ladies from some aristocratic families may not be allowed to learn riding and shooting.
"Wang Jieyu, you talk too much." Si Chao frowned.
No one can force Qingyu to do something she doesn't want to do.
