Chapter 16 The Prince’s Prestige (2)
Li Ye also saw King Si Ning, who was about thirty years old, with a medium build, a thin appearance, and a half-inch short beard under his chin. From his appearance, he could tell that he was a very elegant scholar, not a vicious person.
"The prince has come out. I'm going to say hello. Nephew Li Xian. Someone will take you out later. Just go ahead and show off your double jump skills."
Li Ye nodded and Qiao Xingzhong hurried away. At this time, the third steward Hu Jing also came under the stand. He had a white face and no beard, a pair of triangular eyes, thin lips, a small nose and small eyes. He looked like a treacherous villain at first glance, and he was that
A kind of narrow-minded person who will retaliate for his anger.
"See you, my lord!"
Qiao Xingzhong and Hu Jing saluted together. They were both surprised. They thought that the prince would not come, but they did not expect that the prince actually came. This really made them both surprised and nervous.
Li Lin said calmly: "I have nothing to say, just four words: accept the bet and admit defeat, the winner will be the boss."
He smiled and asked the princess again, "What does the princess want to say?"
The princess was wearing a gauze curtain and her face could not be seen. She smiled lightly and said: "Of course it is the prince who has the final say!"
Li Lin nodded, "Let's get started!"
The old eunuch Wang Shouzhong shouted loudly: "Today is a literary competition. The opponents Xiao Feilong and Li Ye follow the rules. The fifty-step line and three goals will determine the outcome."
Li Lin said lightly: "His name is Li Ye, which is very similar to my fifth uncle's name!"
Li Lin's fifth uncle is Xue Wang Li Ye, and his name is indeed very similar to Li Ye.
The princess quickly glanced at her husband and felt a little strange. The prince actually knew the child's specific name?
A servant brought Li Ye to the middle of the polo field. Xiao Feilong also came on the other side. He was a handsome young man, but his eyelids were slightly swollen, which ruined his handsomeness. This was a typical sign of excessive drinking and sex.
However, since he is number one on the black ball list, he naturally has his advantages. He is tall and has long arms, which is very suitable for playing polo.
He was riding a majestic black horse, which had a very beautiful luster and looked like black satin in the sun. Li Ye was riding a very thin old yellow horse, with almost all its hair. It was the old horse of Zhang Xiaopang's family.
horse.
This is very particular. Everyone must ride the horse they are most familiar with in order to be able to play ball smoothly. Sometimes it is not just the person playing ball, but the horse also needs to cooperate.
During yesterday's practice, Li Ye felt that the horse brought by Qiao Bin was not very cooperative with him and could not perform tricks.
The old horse in Zhang Xiaopang’s family can be said to have watched Li Ye grow up. Although he is old and thin, he is very spiritual. Li Ye was very good to him in the past. In winter, he would clear the snow to find grass to feed it. It can feel the young man’s affection for him.
of goodwill.
He and Li Ye had a kind of telepathy. Li Ye rode it to play ball yesterday afternoon and clearly felt the tacit understanding between man and horse.
Although I'm a little older, it doesn't matter if I'm not confrontational. If others want to laugh at me, just let them be!
The princess was surprised and said to her husband next to her: "Your Majesty, how can he ride such a bad horse to compete?"
Li Lin smiled and didn't say anything. He was like a dragon or a phoenix among people, so he naturally had his aloofness. He could feel that Li Ye was different. Although he was born in a slum area and rode a bad horse, there was nothing in him.
Even at the slightest bit of humility, there is an indescribable magnanimity in every gesture.
But after Li Ye came on the stage, he suddenly became very cowardly and timid, with his head shrunk and his back bowed, like a farm boy who had never seen the world, completely overwhelmed by the domineering little flying dragon.
Is this his tactic? Li Lin became more curious about Li Ye.
Qiao Xingzhong's eyes narrowed. As a steward, he certainly had the right to replace Li Ye with a good horse and would not let Li Ye ride a bad horse to embarrass himself.
But he still didn't stop him and let Li Ye ride the bad horse. He was betting that the little flying dragon would underestimate the enemy. Li Ye's pretending to be humble made him very satisfied. This kid is awesome!
The old eunuch Wang Shouzhong said to the two of them: "On the fifty-step line, three goals will determine the outcome. Which one of you will hit first?"
Li Ye said modestly: "You dare not be rude, the seniors will naturally hit you first!"
Xiao Feilong stared at Li Ye and his horse for a long time. It was a huge humiliation for him that his opponent was such a little country bumpkin and such a trash horse.
"I'll hit first!" Xiao Feilong just wanted to end this damn game with one goal.
The little flying dragon ran in a small circle, then suddenly galloped towards the polo, hit the polo accurately with one shot, and 'pop!' the polo flew out of an arc and hit the hole accurately.
There are many things to pay attention to in the polo tournament. It adopts a scoring system and requires you to play tricks. The more fancy you play, the higher the score. Of course, the more fancy you play, the greater the difficulty.
Otherwise, the contestants will hit all three balls accurately, and it will be impossible to tell who is higher and who is lower.
The little flying dragon was too proud. He was deceived by Li Ye's timid appearance and inferior horse, and he underestimated the enemy.
On the first shot, he hit a single ball into the hole, which was very impressive, but in a competition between experts, this is the most basic skill, and it can only score basic points. He got ten points.
Qiao Xingzhong was so excited that he immediately covered his mouth, his heart pounding. This guy really underestimated his enemy.
Several polo masters nearby shook their heads. This guy is an idiot. Playing first is actually very passive and can easily be surpassed by others. Moreover, there are only three goals in the game, and he actually scored a basic point on the precious first ball.
Li Lin kept staring at Li Ye. When he saw Li Ye suddenly straightened his back, his hidden aura suddenly burst out. The calm and confident look on his face was completely different from before. Li Lin couldn't help laughing, "This kid, I
like!"
Xiao Feilong also felt the changes in Li Ye. His face turned pale and he underestimated the enemy.
Hu Jing clenched his fists, wanting to rush forward and punch this damn little flying dragon to death. The tension in his heart rose to his throat.
Li Ye came on the field. He waved the club gently, and suddenly he galloped. As soon as the pole was circled, the polo flew straight into the sky, and then he hit another polo with a sharp stroke.
After flying out, he turned around and struck again, hitting the first polo that fell from the sky.
The two polo balls shot into the hole accurately, one after the other.
The surrounding area suddenly burst into applause, and a polo player shouted: "What a shooting star catching up with the moon!"
This is the trick. It is a continuous hit in one go. Although it is two balls, it only counts as one ball. This is called a shooting star chasing the moon in polo tournaments, and it scores twelve points.
At the end of the first ball, Li Ye led by two points.
At this time, the princess also saw the trick. She snorted and said dissatisfied: "Where did Hu San find this idiot!"
If Xiao Feilong loses today, not only will Hu San lose her position as the chief executive, but she will also lose her face.
At this time, everyone saw that Li Ye was pretending to be vulgar and making the opponent underestimate his opponent. Everyone began to watch the game with great interest. It was a battle of wits and courage, and it was so exciting.
