Chapter 674
He Dong became curious, so he urged him to go quickly.

The sun is shining brightly, the sky is cloudless, the clear Bahe River flows slowly, and many people have gathered in the spacious green pasture.

Generals from the Dragon Teng Army, Lion Roaring Army and more than [-] officers of rank five and above rushed over to surround He Dong and Li Bing to salute.

He Dong scolded with a straight face on purpose: "You all came here to see the joke about Tiger Benjun?"

General Jiang and county magistrate of the Longteng Army was a short and fat guy with slender eyes, and the flesh on his face squeezed his eyes into slits when he smiled, "The emperor, the weather is fine today, and the humble officials are waiting for someone to come to the Bahe River to bask in the sun. "

All the officers nodded.

Li Bing said: "The sun is sunny and the turtles are drying their shells."

He Dong laughed a few times, striding forward with one hand behind his back as all the officers looked at each other.

The ladies of the civil official school and the military official school bowed to He Dong and his wife, Li Bing, and He Yijue one after another.

For the sake of fairness and justice, there are three judges in this polo match, Liang Guogong, Shangjun Gong and Lu County Gong.

After discussing with the three respected and respected old men who had resigned from their actual posts in the army, Liang Guo said publicly: "This judgment should be made by the Supreme Emperor, Queen Mother, and Prince Li."

Seeing He Dong's eagerness to try, Murong Ying smiled and said, "Brother Dong, I don't know much about polo, so I can't be a judge. You and your husband are both masters, so how about being a judge with the three of them?"

He Dong and Li Bing readily agreed.

Mr. Shangjun was old and strong, and his voice was loud, and he said loudly: "The polo match is about to start, and the two sides will send players."

Miss Jiang combed simple double maids, tightly wrapped with gold ribbons, wearing a green Hufu, long clothes and trousers, holding a horse pole nearly three feet long in her right hand, full of heroic spirit, leading the way, followed by Ten beautiful teenage girls also wearing green Hu suits.

This team of girls has the guts to compete in polo with the best riding tigers in the world. Whether they win or lose, they feel honored.

As soon as they made their debut, they won thunderous applause from the crowd.

Lu Daoming, the general of the Tiger Ben Army, glanced at the triumphant General Jiang, and said loudly: "This time, the soldiers who are officially registered with our General Yan Wang into Chang'an have important matters, and this one has been dispatched and retired. Lao He, who returned to the field, led the two grandsons and General Li Guanjun to participate in the polo match."

Lu Daoming's actual official position in the army is lower than that of General Jiang, but his title is also a second-rank county magistrate, so he can sit on an equal footing with him.

Lu Daoming believed that today's polo match was started by Miss Jiang under the orders of General Jiang.

A tall and thin man with white hair on the temples, wearing black clothes and black trousers, with a black haircut, an ordinary man in his fifties who could not be found in the crowd, walked out step by step.

If you look closely, you can see that he is a little unbalanced when he walks, and his shoulders shake slightly.

Li Bing said in a low voice: "Old He is disabled."

Behind Lao He were three children who also wore black clothes and trousers and black haircuts.

Eight-year-old plump Li Kun, three-year-old He Yu and He Teng with sweet smiles.

Lao He was empty-handed, and under the suspicious eyes of everyone, he explained calmly: "The villain's pole is on the horse's back."

"My father used to be the general of the Tiger Ben Army. He can't come because of something. I will compete for him." Li Kun held the horse pole in his right hand, with a solemn expression on his face, showing an unstoppable momentum on the battlefield.

Pointing at Li Kun, He Dong said proudly: "Look at the champion general I conferred on when I was in office, he has grown into a man."

Li Bingdao: "It's a donkey or a horse, you'll know when you take it out for a walk."

Murong Ying laughed and said, "Sir, it's not okay to compare my good grandson-in-law, Kun Lang, to a donkey and a horse."

He Yu and He Teng's hands were too small, so they tied the upper part of the horse pole to their right arms, exposing the lower part to play polo.

The two brothers stuck out their tongues in the direction where He Jingyan, Li Jingjing, He Ying, and He An were sitting, making faces, just like before the game.

He An's eyes were full of envy, and he couldn't help shouting at He Yu and He Teng: "Why didn't you call me?"

He Yu replied loudly: "You are not good at riding, I am afraid you will be injured in the competition."

He An was a little hurt, but it was the truth after thinking about it.His riding skills are far inferior to He Ying, let alone He Yu brothers.

Lord Shangjun asked, "Should the Tigers Beneath the Army send four people?"

Lu Daoming said: "My prince said that these four people are enough."

The young ladies discussed a few words, and pushed Miss Jiang out: "Since King Yan has said so, then we should be respectful rather than obedient. It's just that if the Tiger Ben army loses, don't regret it."

"Where are there so many words. Let's start the competition." Lu Daoming saw that all the girls were extremely excited, and he expected them to cry later.

Miss Jiang said loudly: "Sisters, get on your horse and let the Tiger Ben army see how powerful we are!"

He Teng jumped three feet and shouted: "Let's go, let's play ball."

A servant had already brought out the horses that the four of them rode for the competition.

Lao He's horse is a grown-up mare with maroon fur and light steps, like a strategist planning a strategy.

Li Kun's horse is a snow-white male thousand-mile horse. It is white all over without any variegation. It is so beautiful that people can't take their eyes off it, just like a peerless handsome man.

Brother He Yu's mount is the Dian horse tamed in the past few months. It is the shortest and most ordinary horse in the audience. It looks like two slaves doing heavy work.

Everyone's attention was on Li Kun and He Yu brothers, and no one paid attention to the ordinary Lao He.

The polo matches in Chang'an all have lottery to add to the fun, and there are also betting games that are better than the eyes of spectators.

The game is about to start, and someone set up a bet on the sidelines.

Without exception, the people of the royal family voted for the Tiger Ben Army to win.

He Dong handed over the national treasury to He Yiyang, no longer rich and powerful, and bet all the salary of less than 2000 taels of the overlord's salary for several months.

Murong Ying gave most of the money to Mu Siguo and He Yijue as a dowry, and she didn't have that much money, so she bet 6000 taels of silver.

Li Jingjing found out that the dealers were the officers of the Long Teng Army and the Lion Roaring Army. If the Tiger Ben Army won the money and tripled the money, they bet 20 taels of silver at once, and said with a smile to He Jingyan: "Husband, this will be delivered to your door." I would feel sorry for myself if I let it go.”

He Jingyan raised his eyebrows and said: "Lady, they don't need money for anything. You can deposit another 20 taels of silver for your husband."

The bet of 40 taels was the largest bet since the polo game was popular in Chang'an.

Before the game started, the huge bet alone made everyone in the audience shocked and excited.

11 against four.

All 11 are women, but equestrian skills are the best among women in Chang'an.
