Chapter 466: Fortunately he didn't come [Bowing in thanks! Bowing again! Debt 44k]

~16 min read 3,127 words

【The marriage of Yan Jie'er in the previous text has been changed. Because the modified paragraph comments will disappear, I would like to thank the book friend for the correction here】

【In the text, both Yuan and He families marrying maternal cousins are fine, which made the author mistakenly think that marrying a same-surname person who is out of five generations of mourning is no problem. The fact is that ancient same-clan and same-surname marriages are strictly forbidden, while marrying maternal cousins is not forbidden, but rather relatives marrying relatives】

"Swish~"

The polo ball flew over the head of Lu Zhang Zhang Sanlang, who was lowering his head to adjust his horse, and flew towards the goal not far away!

The person involved, Lu Zhang Zhang Sanlang, hadn't reacted yet, just raised his head to look.

And Han Fifth Young Master beside him shrank his neck in fear on the horse's back, and then cursed at the person in the distance: "Xu Zaijing! This killer!"

"Qing Yun Ge'er, where did that ball fly past just now?"

Lu Zhang Zhang Sanlang looked at the polo ball in the goal and asked suspiciously.

"It passed over the fool's head!"

Han Fifth Young Master finished speaking and reined in his horse to leave, preparing to serve the ball,

After listening to this, Lu Zhang Zhang Sanlang scanned Wei Faqi, the Marquis Fu'an, who was not far away, closer to the goal, and had just stretched out his neck after shrinking it: "Tsk tsk!"

While tsk-ing, he also shook his head.

Wei Faqi looked at Lu Zhang Zhang Sanlang's appearance: "No, Lu Zhang Zhang Sanlang, what do you mean?"

"Fool~"

Wei Faqi pointed at Lu Zhang Zhang Sanlang with his polo stick in disbelief: "Say it again?"

"Serve the ball!"

Han Fifth Young Master, who had walked far away, shouted.

"Okay, Fifth Young Master!" Wei Faqi hurriedly responded with a smile.

As he spoke, Wei Faqi walked towards the goal.

Looking at the deep marks smashed by the polo ball on the goal board, Wei Faqi swallowed his saliva: "This stubborn prisoner Xu Zaijing, is really going to kill me!"

On the side of the field,

The incense stick burned one-fifth

Amidst the sound of drums,

A servant inserted the flag representing the goal, with one blue flag representing the Han family and three red flags representing the Gu family.

On the other side,

Xu Zaijing raised his polo stick and clinked it with Gu Tingye: "Second Young Master, this pass was beautiful!"

Gu Tingye was full of smiles, and after looking at Zheng Xiao, he raised his chin triumphantly.

Zheng Xiao smiled helplessly: "I see your techniques, we don't need to break in, just shoot from a distance outside."

Gu Tingye shook his head: "Xiao Ge'er, this won't work, we still have to mobilize them, otherwise if they stand at the goal, the ball won't be so easy to enter!"

Liang Han, who was at the very back of the three, raised his polo stick: "Second Young Master is right!"

"They served the ball!"

Xu Zaijing shouted, and the small Li horse he was sitting on had already rushed out.

On the polo field, both sides came and went,

The spectators on the side, because of betting, were also very concerned about the field, cheering or feeling regretful from time to time.

In the tent in the middle,

Zhang family Fifth Da Niangzi stood at the tent door and glanced at Chai Zhengzheng on the side: "This Gu family Second Brother is also, why does he always pass to Jing Ge? It's the same if he passes to Xiao Ge'er to score."

"Feiyan sister, what do you think?"

Chai Zhengzheng asked with a smile.

Rong Feiyan supported her chin with a fan and looked outside, saying: "Fifth Da Niangzi is right."

Gu Tingyi looked at Zhang family Fifth Da Niangzi with reproach: "Fifth Da Niangzi, you also play polo often, can't you see that Jing Ge's position is better?"

"That can be passed to Xiao Ge'er to mobilize the opponent."

At this time,

Cheers came from the door of another tent not far away.

The few people talking hurriedly looked at the polo field.

It turned out that Han Fifth Young Master and his group had advanced to the Gu family's half.

"Defend! Defend!"

Zhang family Fifth Da Niangzi said anxiously while standing on tiptoe.

Before the words fell,

The polo ball beside the son of the Marquis Zhongshan family was poked to the side by Zheng Xiao.

On the side of the field, seeing this scene, Zhang family Fifth Da Niangzi jumped up.

Xu Zaijing, who rushed over on horseback, took the opportunity to knock it with his polo stick,

The offense and defense changed instantly.

Han Chengyun and these sons of Duke and Marquis families also had some skills to be able to occupy the top spot on the "Bianjing Polo Ranking" wooden partition on the side.

Seeing this scene, they rushed to their own half one after another.

Only one Han Chengyun was left to harass and intercept near Xu Zaijing,

Xu Zaijing passed the polo ball out to mobilize the opponent's defense,

The situation of passing and receiving the polo ball on the field was very fierce, and the incense stick on the side of the field was about to burn out in the scramble to score.

Xu Zaijing received the polo ball again,

After looking around, before Han Chengyun could swing his stick to grab it, he passed the polo ball to Zheng Xiao in the middle of the polo field.

"Xiao Ge'er!!! Pass to me!"

Zheng Xiao listened to Gu Tingye's shout on the right, and looked at Xu Zaijing on the left,

Hesitating,

Han Chengyun rushed over again.

"Slap~!"

Zheng Xiao swung his stick, and the polo ball was passed to Gu Tingye,

Watching the flying polo ball, thinking of Xu Zaijing's beautiful long-distance shot, Gu Tingye revealed a winning smile on the corner of his mouth and shouted: "Xiao Ge'er, watch carefully! I will only demonstrate once!"

Zheng Xiao was stunned.

"Slap~"

The polo ball was hit and flew out.

On the other side, seeing that it was Gu Tingye and not Xu Zaijing shooting, Lu Zhang Zhang Sanlang raised his polo stick and galloped towards the goal, wanting to intercept the ball.

Arriving not far from the goal, Lu Zhang Zhang Sanlang turned his head and was about to look at the position of the polo ball, but found a black shadow getting bigger and bigger in front of him.

"Tap"

"Ah~"

Watching Lu Zhang Zhang Sanlang, who was hit in the forehead by the polo ball and almost fell off his horse in pain,

Xu Zaijing and Zheng Xiao both twitched the corners of their eyes with empathy.

"Snort..."

Listening to the sound of almost laughing on the side, Xu Zaijing and Zheng Xiao looked over, just in time to see Wei Faqi covering his mouth, trying hard to make himself look very uncomfortable.

Looking at Xu Zaijing and the two, Wei Faqi hurriedly waved his hand and whispered: "I, I didn't mean it!"

"I really didn't mean it!"

Further away,

Gu Tingye shouted loudly while driving his horse towards Lu Zhang Zhang Sanlang.

Gu Tingye came to Lu Zhang Zhang Sanlang's side and said: "Lu Zhang Zhang Sanlang, are you okay?"

Lu Zhang Zhang Sanlang, covering his forehead and very annoyed in pain, after hearing Gu Tingye's voice, didn't care about anything and swung the polo stick in his hand: "I enter your..."

Watching the polo stick hitting him fiercely, Gu Tingye reflexively raised his stick to block it.

Gu Tingye was also a martial artist for many years, and this blocking and counterattacking move had quite a lot of strength.

"Slap!"

The polo stick was blocked back.

"Ah!"

Lu Zhang Zhang Sanlang covered his forehead again and said with a crying voice:

"Woooo, Gu Yuan Erlang, you wretched, worthless scoundrel."

"Gu Second Young Master, what are you doing?"

Han Chengyun, who rushed over, raised his polo stick and shouted at Gu Tingye.

Looking at Lu Zhang Zhang Sanlang who started to cry, Gu Tingyi: "I, he, this!"

Seeing Han Chengyun go over,

Xu Zaijing and Zheng Xiao also ran over on horseback.

"Han Fifth Young Master, it is Lu Zhang Zhang Sanlang whose ball skills are not refined and didn't estimate the landing point of the polo ball well."

Zheng Xiao glanced at Gu Tingye and said.

When the few were theorizing, Liang Han rode over: "Are we still playing or not!"

Han Chengyun glanced at the flags with a huge score difference in the distance and replied: "What else to play! Gu Second Young Master has to give us an explanation first?"

"What explanation?"

Gu Tingye asked.

"Admit defeat, apologize!"

Lu Zhang Zhang Sanlang shouted while rubbing his forehead.

Gu Tingye said: "Apologizing is fine, admitting defeat is not!"

Liang Han smiled and said: "Explanation? Before, you and my uncle's two cousins played ball and beat their arms swollen, did you give an explanation?"

"I didn't mean it!"

"Then Ye Ge'er was intentional? I see it looks like you intentionally used your head to catch the ball!"

"Liang Han, you!"

"Woo~"

Xu Zaijing on the side swung his polo stick, making a whistling sound in the air.

"Slap~ Slap~"

The first sound was the polo stick hitting the ball, and the second sound was the polo ball hitting the goal board.

Hearing this movement, everyone was quiet.

The place where everyone was theorizing was not far from the goal. Looking at the deep marks on the goal board and the appearance of the polo ball, a few people swallowed their saliva secretly.

"If Second Young Master were truly intentional, Lu Zhang Zhang Sanlang, you wouldn't be able to stand and theorize with us."

Xu Zaijing said while looking at the few.

Hearing this, Gu Tingye glanced at Xu Zaijing somewhat embarrassedly, but still didn't refute.

"You admit defeat or continue to play, say it."

"Forget it, forget it, let's go!"

Han Fifth Young Master waved his hand and was about to take the others to walk to the side.

"Qing Yun Ge'er, you..." Lu Zhang Zhang Sanlang raised his head and frowned as he looked over.

Wei Faqi on the side hurriedly leaned over and whispered: "Lu Third Brother, shut up! Look at the appearance of that polo ball! This Xu Zaijing... his strength is truly great."

Lu Zhang Zhang Sanlang followed his words and glanced at the polo ball. Looking at the new polo ball after scoring, it had already shattered into several pieces and fell in front of the goal.

"Incense stick burned out, Red side wins!"

The referee on the side of the field shouted loudly.

Hearing the shout,

The spectators who bet right cheered one after another,

The polo field manager took the servants and walked towards the tent on the side of the field.

Han Chengyun, who had already dismounted and retreated to the side, said to his cousin from the Sha family of the Marquis Zhongshan family: "Tsk! This Zhang guy is truly a tortoise! If he came to the polo field today, this Xu Zaijing and Gu Tingye would definitely retaliate..."

Hearing his cousin's words, the Sha family boy shook his head: "He is right not to come."

Just looking at Xu Zaijing's strength in playing polo today, if that Beizhou Zhang family boy really came and was hit by a polo ball that was "not intentional, really not careful," he would be dead or crippled.

Even without using the polo ball trick,

Just looking at the strong stallion Xu Zaijing was sitting on,

Just this Sha family boy himself, there was more than one trick he could think of to take revenge.

In the Sheng family tent,

Minglan didn't even put the raisins that were sent to her mouth into her mouth

And looked at the jade ornament offered by the polo field manager with Pinlan and Rulan with full curiosity.

"Is this truly made by a master craftsman?" Pinlan said.

Rulan took the jade ornament and looked at it carefully, saying: "It looks a bit different from the birthday gift the eldest sister gave me, but it can be considered a fine item."

Pinlan looked at the exquisite jewelry and nodded with pursed lips noncommittally.

Rulan glanced at Pinlan sideways: "Pinlan sister, I didn't talk nonsense, you have to know that the gift the eldest sister gave me was given to Jing Jing Biao Ge Jing by the Duke of Lian."

Pinlan blinked suspiciously.

Rulan explained the relationship between the Ministry of Works Wensi Academy and the mother of the Duke of Luze.

After finishing, Rulan looked into the tent and whispered:

"Pinlan sister, your hammer ball is so powerful, you teach me, and I will find an opportunity to show you."

Pinlan thought for a while and shook her head: "If Rulan sister wants to learn hammer ball, I will teach you! As for the jewelry of the Wensi Academy, forget it, it's too valuable!"

Listening to the conversation between the two sisters, Minglan's head looked back and forth, and finally said: "Then what should we do with this jewelry?"

Rulan raised her eyes and looked at her head: "The one on my head was originally Pinlan sister's, this one will be given to Pinlan sister, and Minglan, your silver will be returned to you when you go home."

Minglan glanced at Pinlan and nodded in agreement.

At this time,

A female official came to the door of the Sheng family tent,

After bowing to the three Lan, she said: "Several young ladies, the servant is the female official of the Zhang family of the Duchess of England, my young lady invites several to go to the tent to play for a while."

After speaking, this female official moved her gaze from Minglan and pointed to the Zhang family's tent.

Hearing this, Pinlan looked at the female official with some disbelief, thinking: This, Duke, Duke mansion?

Shulan, who heard the conversation near the door, had already stood up and looked out.

In the tent,

First Madam Li of the Sheng family eldest branch stood up from her seat with some disbelief, looking at Wang Ruofu with full surprise in her eyes.

Wang Ruofu felt extremely useful in her heart at this time, but she waved her handkerchief somewhat indifferently: "Go!"

Rulan rolled her eyes at Seeing Mo Lan who wanted to stand up: "Yes, Mother."

First Madam Li was instantly somewhat hesitant.

Wang Ruofu smiled, extremely happy, and glanced at Liu Mama on the side.

But Liu Mama gave First Madam Li a look.

Wang Ruofu looked at Liu Mama who had been with her for many years, and suddenly had a flash of inspiration, smiled: "Shulan and Pinlan go too! You all go!"

After saying this,

First Madam Li was stunned, then looked at Wang Ruofu with great gratitude, and didn't know what to say for a while.

Wang Ruofu smiled: "They are all girls of the Sheng family,"

First Madam Li nodded repeatedly: "Sister-in-law is right, is right! Shulan, Pinlan, don't lose your manners."

"Yes, Mother."

As she spoke,

The five people took the female officials and walked out.

That Zhang family female official smiled at the five Lan, and her gaze swept over Seeing Mo Lan who wanted to walk in the front.

Feeling the look of this female official, Seeing Mo Lan stopped for a step and let Rulan walk in the front.

On the way,

Rulan looked back at Seeing Mo Lan triumphantly and whispered to Minglan: "Sixth sister, your pitch-pot is powerful, and you have a good relationship with the noble girls of those families, so it will depend on you later..."

Minglan pursed her lips and nodded.

Shulan, who heard the conversation between the two younger sisters, looked at Minglan with some surprise.

"Giddyap~"

"Clatter clatter clatter"

The sound of horse hooves rang out not far behind the five Lan,

Subsequently, a few fine horses overtook the five Lan on one side of the field,

"Whew~"

"Neigh~"

Gu Tingye reined in his mount, making the front hooves stand up,

Looking at the four Lan who were scared back, a triumphant smile appeared on his face, and then he rode his horse towards Xu Zaijing.

Hearing the horse neighing, Xu Zai

Zheng Xiao said:

"That little girl looks young, but she has quite a lot of nerve."

Xu Zaijing looked at Minglan and smiled: "This girl has always been like this."

As he spoke,

Xu Zaijing turned over and dismounted, handing the reins to Alan.

After Gu Tingye passed the mounts of Xu Zaijing, Zheng Xiao, and Liang Han, he also dismounted at a further spot.

Qiao Jiulang walked out of the Xu family tent with a smile: "Jing—"

Watching Minglan walk toward the little chestnut horse, Qiao Jiulang hurriedly shouted: "Hey, little girl, you mustn't get so close to the horse!"

Minglan glanced at Qiao Jiu with confusion, her eyes full of, 'How old are you, who are you calling a little girl?'

Xu Zaijing, Gu Tingye, and the five Lan sisters exchanged greetings,

Xu Zaijing was fine, but Gu Tingye received a roll of the eyes from Rulan.

Then, looking at the smiling Xu Zaijing, Minglan reached out and touched the little chestnut horse's nose, taking the opportunity to let the horse eat the raisins in her hand.

Watching the little chestnut horse nod incessantly at the departing Minglan after finishing the raisins, Xu Zaijing shook his head with some helplessness.

The five Lan sisters left the place and continued walking forward,

and after walking a few steps, Pinlan turned her head back with great interest to look at the little chestnut horse.

Seeing Pinlan's high spirits, Qiao Jiulang was stunned for a moment before being pulled into the tent by Liang Han.

Duke of Ying's tent,

the five Lan sisters walked in,

and Shulan and Pinlan greeted the noble young ladies in the tent, who were full of smiles, somewhat reservedly.

Chai Zhengzheng looked at Minglan, whom she hadn't seen for some time, and tilted her head to say to the maid Miss Yun Mu beside her: "I feel that this Sixth Sister of the Sheng family has changed quite a bit, hasn't she?"

Brothel,

Chaoyun Pavilion.

The mother of the building looked through the door crack at the few people drinking and feasting in the room,

Pointed to a young man with a beard on his lips and said: "Look, it's that one, I heard he came from the countryside of Youyang, and he is very generous!"

"Mother, rest assured, the daughter will definitely squeeze him dry."
