Chapter 22

At this time, a lieutenant had already entered the field to take away the two horses that had fallen down, to prevent further accidents.

Seeing that nothing serious had happened, the Emperor breathed a sigh of relief, a smile in his eyes and a tone of relief, “I haven’t seen you for a few years, but Yang Xian’s polo is still very good.”

Several imperial sons came over to accompany His Majesty to watch the ball, and King Yun casually said, “Fourth brother’s polo is taught by father himself, and accompanied by General Rong, how can it not be good?”

At these words, His Majesty laughed out loud and pointed at this well-behaved son.

King Li and the Empress glanced at each other, their faces not looking good. When Zhou Xian Yang was in Kun Ning Palace, he was highly favored, and that was the proper Crown Prince of the Middle Palace.

Jin Wang was pondering on the side: “Imperial brother, look at that scene just now, is it déjà vu?”

“Well, I recalled Rong family’s Erlang and his daughter-in-law’s valor on the polo field, back then the couple reigned supreme in Jinling and never lost.”

“Yes, it seems that imperial brother has picked a very compatible daughter-in-law for Xian Yang.”

There was a sudden accident in the middle of the field and the ball game was suspended. Rong Xiangshi dismounted and ran to mix his sister and Zhang Shu up, and when Rong Xiangshi got up, he shook off her hand and walked towards the field himself.

Zhou Xian Yang witnessed the scene from the sidelines and found it strange. In his impression, the third girl was very compassionate towards this fourth sister of hers.

The Imperial Doctor had already been waiting on the sidelines and came forward to see the two Qianjin. Knowing that his sister was angry, Rong Xiangmian did not go to beg for unpleasantness, but went to see Zhang Shu. She was in a good mood and still had the strength to shout, “Almost got trampled into mush! Scared me to death!”

“Does the girl want to rest?”

“It’s fine! Just put some medicine on it.”

“Do you still have to go on? That fall wasn’t easy.” Rong Siang saw that he was afraid that something would happen to her and that the Empress would relocate her anger.

“Go on! I haven’t had this much fun in a long time. It’s not fun when those people in our family give in to me on weekdays.”

Rong Xiangmian knew that she had such a personality, so she didn’t say much.

She also saw that King Yu, Wen Zhongqing, and her older siblings were all looking at Third Sister with relaxed faces, and knowing that she was fine, she returned to the sidelines herself to pat Little Chestnut: “That was awesome just now.”

Next to a dexterous looking little girl holding Yu Wang’s black steed, Rong Xiang Xiang also patted it, “You are also awesome.”

“That’s for sure, Snowflake is our master’s favorite horse!” Xiao Nan said proudly.

“Snowflake?” Rong Xiangmian belly laughs, Yu Wang still has the nerve to talk about her little chestnut, what is the name of his own horse that he doesn’t have a point in his heart?

Xiao Nan thinks she’s wondering why a black horse is called Snowflake, so she pulls Rong Xiangmian to her side: “Look, this horse has a small piece of white on its ear, like a snowflake.”

Rong Xiangmian has never seen a horse like this before, “No wonder, you can’t really tell unless you look closely.”

While the two are chatting, King Yu comes over from the other side, touches the two horses, and says to Xiang Xiang: “The doctor has looked at it, your sister is not in any serious trouble, she just broke her skin.”

Just a broken skin?

Rong Xiang See thinks that Yul Wang is really used to being out in the world, and a broken skin is a big deal for a noblewoman in the capital.

Seeing that she’s ignoring him, Zhou Xian Yang realizes that he’s not going to say anything more.

The game resumes soon after, with several teams battling it out, and the chip counts alternately rising.

Rong Xiang Xiang has to admit that Fabien is very good at the game, and the two of them are not convinced by each other, chasing each other, winning and losing.

Towards the end, everyone is on a roll, all fighting for the ball, and by the time they get to the goal, it’s a mess.

One of the soldiers hit the ball hard, Zhang Yue had not enjoyed the whole game, so he broke the rules and crossed the path of his horse to intercept the ball, but he did not realize that the ball hit the horse’s eyes hard and bounced away.

Rong Xiangmian was the best at picking up the ball and immediately reached out to grab it. Zhou Xian Yang’s club was also in front of him, and the two of them fought in the air.

Rong Xiang See stood on the stirrups, raised his upper body and struck the ball.

I did not expect the horse that was hit by the ball just now, the horse sex, scrambling to stretch his legs and kicked Rong Xiangmian’s horse, small chestnut in order to avoid the attack, raised his upper body, Rong Xiangmian is standing on the horse, the whole body energy in the ball, cold and fell down high.

Zhang Yue sat on his horse and kicked and strangled his horse, but he couldn’t control it, and when he saw that the hairy horse was about to step on Rong Xiangmian, Zhou Xian Yang immediately jumped forward, grabbed the horse’s reins, and strangled it so much that it leaped up and sat down beside him.

Rong Xiangmian only felt countless hooves landing on the side of her head.

The crowd of onlookers thought it was bad, there were many people and horses there, it was chaotic, I was afraid that someone would get hurt.

Rong Xiang Gu brothers immediately ran toward the field.

The lieutenants on the sidelines, after being stunned, rushed forward to control the horses. Zhou Xian Yang waited for the situation to stabilize and immediately dismounted, half crouching down next to Rong Xiang Gu to check on her injuries.

Seeing that her hemline had already been stepped on, Zhou Xian Yang was shocked, “Where did you step on?”

Rong Xiangmian felt it for a moment, and said, “I’m not hurt, except for the pain where I landed.”

Zhou Xian Yang breathed a sigh of relief and reached out to pull Rong Xiang Mi up.

This time, Rong Xiangmian can see King Yu’s hand clearly under the clear sky. His hand was very slender and good looking, the bones at his wrist were slightly raised, making it even more powerful, but there was a very ugly scar between the middle finger of his index finger, like a worm crawling out of his hand.

He turned his hand over a bit, and a penetrating scar in his palm was shocking.

Rong Xiang Xiang was stunned, this injury was too severe.

When Zhou Xian Yang saw that she was hesitant to talk to him, he thought that she was avoiding suspicion, and that they had a marriage contract, so they should be even more careful. He busily stood up and took a few steps away.

Zhang Shu was the first to dismount and rushed to Rong Xiangmian, “Are you alright?”

Rong Xiangshi shook his head and reached out towards her, “Scared me to death!”

“You still have the nerve to say that, clearly it was you who scared me to death! For the sake of a hairpin, you don’t even want to die? How about I carry a box from home to your house tomorrow?”

Xian Yang listened on the sidelines and felt that Zhang Shu had really said what was in his heart.

Rong Xiangmian was embarrassed and said, “It was an accident.”

The time for the match had arrived, and Rong Xiang Gu and Rong Xiang Wen and Rong Xiang Wang all darted into the field, circling around Xiang Xiang to check on her for a good while and confirming that she was fine before they were relieved.

After Rong Xiangmian settles down, she remembers to look at the ball, only to see the small ball lying quietly in the netting behind the goal, and she immediately jumps up with joy.

Before this ball was a tie with King Yu, but after the goal was scored, it was a close win!

A close win was much more rewarding than a complete win or a big win. Today, her head was simply blessed and her luck could not be stopped.

“The ball is in! Why don’t you hit the gong?” Rong Xiangmei looked for the captain in charge of counting.

The man was in a state of shock, and he would be held responsible for anything that happened at the stadium. After breaking out in a cold sweat, he said, “Rong’s family are all desperate!”

After saying that, out of breath, he hit the gongs and drums with great force, and King Qing and Rong Xiangmian narrowly won by one chip.

The crowd, which had just been quiet due to the uncertainty of the situation, immediately boiled over.

“Xiangmian!” Sun Mingyue shouted excitedly. Rong Xiang Yu also can’t help but applaud, and looking at Yü Wang’s helping hand in danger just now, his heart settles a bit, perhaps Yü Wang won’t care about his fourth sister’s birth.

The emperor smiled and glanced at the empress. Just now, the Empress’s nephew, Marquis Yongan’s youngest son, Zhang Yue, did not abide by the rules, so that his mount was frightened and almost injured the Duke of England’s daughter. Thanks to King Yuh helping him control the horse, he followed the horse and sat next to Zhou Xian Yang’s stirrups, contrasting the two, the Emperor as a father could not help but be pleased.

The Empress immediately notices the Emperor’s mood and says, ”When I go back, I will surely chastise Yue’er properly. Let him send a gift of thanks to Yu Wang and a gift of apology to the British Duke’s House.”

“Hm.”

The Empress added in admiration, “King Yu is so valiant, Yue’er can’t hope for anything. No wonder so many princes and dukes in the capital are rushing to catch a glimpse of King Yu’s demeanor. Even Old Princess Ji has brought her granddaughter here. I wonder what kind of famous noblewoman would be a good match for our civilized, martial, and highly decorated Your Highness!”

His Majesty looked around at the grand spectacle that had not been seen in Jinling City for a long time. He picked up a cup of tea and sipped it without saying anything.
