In the splendid lobby, Yang Guozhong, who was wearing regular clothes and a gauze hat, had a solemn face. He was looking at the third set of qualifying situation maps drawn on the wooden board with his hands behind his back.
Yang Yupei, the wife of Guo State, lost 10,000 guan to Prime Minister Li Linfu in a bet. She became furious and threatened that if the Yang family's polo team failed to qualify, she would give Yang Guozhong a good look, and she could not support him to go further.
Yang Guozhong felt tremendous pressure. All teams knew that the Hexi Army Polo Team in the third group would definitely qualify, and the other four teams competed for the remaining spot.
The other teams are not important, the most important thing is Ning Wangfu team.
At this time, the eldest son Yang Xuan walked in hurriedly.
He bowed and saluted: "Father, the child has been obtained!"
"sure?"
"Haier specially arranged for a person to check the follow-up situation. He saw the boy covering his arms and climbing on the donkey. He went to the house of Manager Qiao in Prince Ning's Mansion. He couldn't even get off the donkey and fell off the donkey. The servant
After checking, everyone was shouting that the arm was broken and the child was sure to be successful."
Yang Guozhong nodded, "This is a good time. It has nothing to do with our Yang family. This matter must be hidden and not let more people know."
"Father, please rest assured. Only three of his subordinates know that Bao'er has sent them to leave Chang'an temporarily. Bao'er didn't even tell Yang Hui about this."
"That idiot Yang Hui, mud can't stick to the wall."
"Father, what did An Sishun say?"
Yang Guozhong snorted, "He said that the Hexi Army can let us win, but the conditions he offered are too excessive."
"What does he want?"
"His term expired in June this year, but he wanted to continue to serve as the governor of Hexi Province, so he made this condition."
"It should be possible!"
Yang Guozhong glanced at his son with dissatisfaction, "Of course it can be done, but don't you think it's uneconomical to pay such a high price for just a polo match?"
Yang Xuan quickly lowered his head, "Indeed, Madam will not agree."
"We'll see in a few days. Fortunately, we still have time."

At dusk, Prince Ning's carriage brought Li Ye back. Pei Sanniang burst into tears when she saw her son's arm was splinted and hung around his neck with a cloth belt.
"It's my mother's fault. She shouldn't have let you play polo to make that little money!"
Li Ye smiled and said: "It's okay, just a little injury!"
"The arm is broken, and there is still a small injury? Where was it injured?"
Li Ye took out a list and handed it to his mother, "This is a counter ticket of 600 guan. Today's win is not great. King Si Ning only gave a reward of 100 guan."
"I don't want this money!"
When Pei Sanniang thought that the six hundred dollars was obtained by her son after breaking his arm, she felt heartbroken and refused. She wiped away her tears and said, "Anyway, it's just a word, you won't be allowed to play ball anymore."
"Auntie, close the courtyard door!"
Li Ye sighed and returned to his room, took off the cloth belt, took his hand out of the splint, shook it hard twice, and cursed in a low voice: "That bastard, you beat him really hard!"
"Ah Ye, mother is going to buy pigeons to make soup for you..."
Pei Sanniang walked into her son's room and was stunned for a moment. After a while, she widened her eyes and asked, "What's the matter with you? Your arm is not broken?"
Li Ye smiled slightly and said: "Mom, I have been drinking potions since I was a child, and my muscles and bones are strong. How can they be broken so easily?"
"Yes! I also find it a bit strange. Your leg was hit by a stone mill when you were a child and your leg was fine. How could it be easily broken? But what do you mean by pretending like this?"
"It's just a trick, I guess it's a bitter trick! But this is top secret, only a few people know about it, mother must not let it out."
Li Ye wanted to go outside the city to practice swordsmanship at night. He was afraid that his mother would stop him, so he could only tell the truth.
Pei Sanniang suddenly said angrily: "My tears were in vain, it turns out they were fake, hum!"
Aunt Mu next to her said: "Sanniang, we have to buy some meat pigeons and some bones to make soup. Let's just replenish Ah Ye's health!"
"What day will he not recuperate? Meat pigeons cost 300 coins each. I have to work hard for a month to buy a few pigeons."
Pei Sanniang muttered, turned around and walked out. As soon as she walked out, another gust of wind rushed in and snatched 600 banknotes from Li Ye.
"Six hundred strings! The harvest is not bad." She left happily.
With such a top-notch old lady, Li Ye was speechless. He looked at Aunt Mu. Aunt Mu was already used to it and said with a smile: "Auntie, I'll bring you some food!"

At the first watch, Pei Sanniang patrolled around with a sword in hand, and came back and said to Li Ye in the courtyard: "No one is watching!"
"Then I'm going!"
"Be careful. The Pei family's mental skills need to be accumulated over a long period of time, and they cannot be broken through in a day or two."
"I know, mother, go and rest!"
Li Ye climbed over the courtyard wall with a polo club on his back, rushed into the darkness, and soon disappeared.
Pei Sanniang sighed and touched Xiao Hei's head, "Although you can't speak, you know best!"
Xiao Hei wagged his tail in agreement.
Pei Sanniang turned around and went into the house.
………
Two days later, the third game started. In the morning, it was the Yang Family Polo Team against the Zuojian Gatekeeper Polo Team. As a result, the Yang Family Polo Team won 7 to 1. There was an uproar immediately. You must know that the Zuojian Gatekeeper Polo Team
The strength is the second in the third group, second only to the Hexi Army Polo Team, ranking tenth in the Polo League.
To actually lose to the Yang family polo team, which was ranked three places lower than them, with such a huge score, it was obvious that they were letting their guard down.
The fans were scolding, but there was nothing they could do. The explanation from the left guard polo team was that they were in poor condition.
The afternoon match was between the Ningwang Polo Team and the Hexi Army Polo Team. As expected, the Hexi Army Polo Team defeated the Ningwang Polo Team 8-3.
The result was normal and no one was surprised. But what was strange was that Fei Shark did not play today and he was not seen on the field. The fans were talking a lot.
Many fans believe that the King Ning Polo Team knew it would lose this game, so they hid the flying sharks and concentrated on dealing with the Zuojian Gate Guards in the next game.
The current situation is very unfavorable for the Ningwang Polo Team. If the Ningwang Polo Team loses to the Zuojian Guards Polo Team in the next game, then the Ningwang Team, the Yang Family Team and the Zuojian Guards Team will all win, but
In terms of goal difference, the Yang family team is far ahead, so the Yang family polo team must qualify.
Unless the Ningwang Polo Team defeated the Zuojian Gatekeeper Polo Team in the last game, the Ningwang Polo Team ranked fifteenth, while the Zuojian Gatekeeper Polo Team ranked tenth.
With a difference of five places, it is not easy to win, even if you have a flying shark.
In various gambling halls in Chang'an, those who bet on the Yang's polo team in the third group gradually gained the upper hand. Seventy-one people bet on the Yang's polo team and only three-thirds bet on the Ningwang team.
Ning Wang's team qualifying is already an upset, but Yang's polo team has a high probability of qualifying due to its power. When gambling, you must bet on high probability.
