The sound of thunderous hooves woke Li Jing from a brief shallow sleep, and the golden morning sun had already spilled into the bedroom through the delicate wooden window.

Li Jing got up, walked to the window with his naked and sturdy upper body, and looked down from the window on the third floor. In the small martial arts arena in the middle of the house, the heavily armed guards of the Zhenguo Army are conducting morning drills, and the guards of the suburban festival army wearing silver cloaks are galloping on horseback, or fencing, or practicing archery, or riding dummies on horseback and chopping straw, and knights are chopping wooden stakes.

Li Jing saw Xin Yan galloping through the hard dirt and piercing the scarecrow's head. The cloth was torn, the straw was flying, and the guards of the Silver Spear Suburban Army were laughing and praising them.

Sure enough, the swordsman is not old, and the majesty is still there!

This is the mansion of Qinrenfang in Chang'an, which is the residence of Li Jing in Beijing given by the emperor. Originally, Li Jing planned to live in the Bashang military camp when he was in the capital, but the emperor did not agree and gave Li Jing the mansion in Jurenfang.

Qinren Fang, also known as "Qinrenli", according to the sequence of Chang'an City of the Tang Dynasty, in the east of the second street of Zhuque Street, north of Xuanyang Fang, south of Yongning Fang, and the east of the diagonal of the city, the layout of Qinren Fang, like other squares in the north and south, is divided into four major districts by the big cross street in the square, and there are small cross streets in each district. There are 16 districts in the branch. There are "alleys" and "songs" in the community. Outside the square is surrounded by rammed earth mill walls, and four doors are opened on all sides, which is located on the fourth of the six high slopes that pass through the city.

Qinrenfang is adjacent to the imperial city, located in the core area of Chang'an City, only one square away from Guozijian, close to Jingzhao Mansion Wannian County, is a typical "golden location", mostly for famous families, ministers and ministers live.

A well-known house in the workshop. There are Teng Wang Yuanying's house, Yan Guogong Yu Zhining house, Feng Gon house in the matter, the son of Feng Su, the envoy of Dongchuan Jiedu in Jiannan, the former residence of Li Danju, the father of Tang Xuanzong Li Longji, the former residence of Ruizong Li Danju, the house of Zheng Wanjun, the princess of Daiguo, the house of Prince Zhan Shi Wei Kun, the house of Yang Hongwu, the house of Wang Xijun, the residence of Princess Changle, the house of An Lushan, the house of Guo Ziyi, the house of Lingsun Qi in Baima County, Huazhou, the house of Liu Zongyuan, the house of Princess Xihua, the house of Li Guochang and his son, the house of Lu Zhen in the matter, the house of the prince Dianshan Lang Weijun, the house of Li Shi, etc.

The most luxurious in the fang is the original Fenyang County King Guo Ziyi's mansion, there is a quarter of the name of Qinrenfang, that is, the entire Qinren Fang, their Guo family accounts for a quarter, Guo's mansion, the courtyards have to ride horses and cars, and the family is 3,000. Although it is a bit exaggerated, it can be seen in general. And there is also the old mansion of Ruizong Li Dan, the mansion of the three princesses.

In addition, An Lushan and Li Guochang, these Hu generals have also been given houses in Renli.

Li Jing is now a favored minister in front of the Son of Heaven, and Li Yi also rewarded Li Jing with a mansion in Qinren. This house is huge. It's almost the same as Guo's house.

The hall is high and looks up, and the house is wide by car.

Such a big mansion. Everything is complete, when Li Jing came in, there were countless slaves inside, and the housekeepers and slaves were all complete, the dark-skinned Kunlun slaves, the beautiful Silla maids, the Sogdian stewards who were the most calculating and doing business, and the eunuchs who were pulled out of the palace as the chief of the palace. There are even several teams of kaki and dancing girls. There were thousands of servants in the whole house.

The weather was sunny, warm and comfortable. Li Jing had breakfast with the generals of the Zhenguo Army who remained in Beijing, and Xin Yan and his two nephews were also invited to dine together. The breakfast is very rich, and the new Qi State Mansion has a kitchen team of nearly 100 people, which is all available for purchasing, first dish, side dishes, cutting vegetables, stir-frying, cooking, washing dishes, serving dishes, serving tea, serving wine, and serving meals.

The dining room is also very large, and sitting in it is like being in a palace.

Xin Yan sat there with little appetite, only drank some white porridge, and seemed to be still angry at the emperor's absurd behavior. However, Lin Wu and Wang Zhong and other generals devoured them one by one, destroying the food in front of them like a whirlwind.

"Is Brother Xin ready?"

Xin Yan put down his chopsticks and said a little calmly: "Although he is best at using a sword, he is also proficient in polo." It's just more than enough to deal with characters like Chen Jingxuan. ”

Half an hour later, Li Jing went to the palace with Wang Chong, Lin Wu and other leaders of the Zhenguo Army and Xin Yan, and Li Jing's six disciples and Xin Yan's two nephews also followed. When they arrived in the Lin De Hall in the palace, Mi Haiwan, Shi Jingcun, and Qi Bizhang had also arrived, and when they saw Li Jing coming, they all came forward happily to greet them, and their tones were full of flattery. This time, Li Jing recommended them to fight for the Datong Army and the deputy ambassador of the Jiedu of the Lu Army, which made them both surprised and grateful.

"You don't have to be grateful, whether things can be done depends on your performance." Li Jing was reluctant to recommend these three people, but Tian Lingzi recommended four people, and Li Jing had no suitable candidates here, so he had to recommend them together, after all, these people themselves were already the assassins of the three states of Daibei.

The polo field in front of the Lin De Hall is not the largest polo field in Chang'an City, but it is also a huge polo field.

This polo match related to the throne of the festival is not open to the public, and there are still many people who can come to watch from the emperor and from the princes and princes. There are two high stands on both sides of the front hall of the Lin De Palace, which are also full of imperial relatives at this time.

The Son of Heaven had already arrived early, dressed in a military uniform, and holding a club several feet long in his hand.

On the side of the court, Tian Lingzi had already arrived with a group of generals from Zuo Shence's army, and Chen Jingxuan and the others had changed into polo uniforms, each holding a majestic BMW and holding a cue in their hands. Seeing Li Jing coming, Tian Lingzi also smiled and greeted him cordially, and Li Jing also smiled and said a few perfunctory words to him.

Looking at the countless nobles in the Lin De Hall who were waiting to watch the game, Li Jing sighed in his heart. All the people just waited to see the excitement, but they didn't think that the emperor even used such an important position as the envoy of the festival to let the people below compete for it by gambling, and what hope was there for such a court.

Polo is an extremely popular game in the Tang Dynasty, from the emperor to the peddlers and pawns, all of them love it. Even aristocratic ladies, and even prostitutes, there are many people who know polo, and there is even a special palace maid polo team in the palace. And almost all the aristocratic families in the capital have a special polo team. Even forbidden armies such as Jin Wuwei and Shence Army have their own polo teams.

In Chang'an, there are countless polo fields.

However, compared with the more popular skeaf, the immediate hitting is obviously more high-end, because to play polo, you must have a good horse, so polo has become an aristocratic sport, just like golf in later generations.

Polo has become the favorite sport of the royal family and nobles, and there are many courts up and down the country, and it has become a trend to play ball, which has been vigorously advocated by the royal family, and it is the heyday of polo. Eleven of the 19 emperors of the Tang Dynasty loved the sport, and two even died playing ball.

Tang Taizong Li Shimin likes to play polo very much, and he also likes to watch people play, and for a while, he often goes to a court to watch the game. As a result, many well-intentioned people deliberately ran there to play ball, hoping to attract the emperor's attention. As a result, Tang Taizong quickly understood, so he broke the club in public to warn himself.

However, there are very few emperors like Taizong after all, and other emperors of the Tang Dynasty also like to play, among the fan emperors of the Tang Dynasty, Tang Xuanzong Li Longji can be regarded as a die-hard fan, Li Longji was twenty-four years old, there was a game between the Tibetan polo team and the Tang Dynasty polo team, and the Tang Dynasty's team lost one after another, which made Li Longji very dissatisfied, and he personally found three members of the royal family to ask to fight against Tubo. In the end, Li Longji formed the Tang Dynasty aristocratic team of four to fight against the Tubo ten-person polo team, he galloped back and forth like the wind and returned to the lightning, waved the stick, invincible, and repeatedly pierced through the opponent's door, won a big victory, won the victory for the first diplomatic ball game of the Tang Dynasty, and made Tang Zhongzong happy.

In August of the first year of Tang Xuanzong, 31-year-old Li Longji ascended the throne, and his polo addiction continued to decline. "The Title of Emperor Ming's Playing Picture Poem" said: "The palace is open in the daytime, San Lang is drunk and plays ball, and the nine-year-old Han Xiu is dead, and there should be no advice tomorrow." In the sixth year of Tianbao, 35 years after Tang Xuanzong ascended the throne, he even issued a special edict stipulating that the army must practice polo, so polo became a training subject in the army.

After Tang Xuanzong, Muzong Li Heng was also a super horse fan, and later died due to an injury sustained while playing. After Mujong died and was succeeded by Jingzong Li Zhan, his fascination with polo continued unabated, and he had a group of polo professionals selected from all over the country in the Royal Inner Garden. These skilled polo players are all called 'playing offerings'. Although there is a high level of skill in playing ball, in the eyes of the emperor, it is just a toy for entertainment. Their lives and livelihoods are not guaranteed. Tang Jingzong Li Zhan was a temperamental and brutal monarch who took pleasure in the disability of others. He often called to play ball in the middle of the night, so that the tragedy of "breaking his head and breaking his arms" often happened. He took pleasure in it, and his brutal tyranny finally provoked a revolt from the worshippers.

In December of the second year of Baoli (826), Li Zhan was hunting in the suburbs, and it was already midnight when he returned to the palace, when he suddenly had a whim, he woke up the playing offerings from his sleep and summoned them to play ball. At this time, the horses were tired, the people were unprepared, and it was dark in the middle of the night, so dangerous accidents were more likely to occur. And Li Zhan insisted on going his own way, without listening to anyone's persuasion, in order to satisfy his brutal nature, he had to hurt people and horses.

In the case of unbearable conditions, he played ball to worship Su Zuoming, Wang Jiaxian, Shi Congkuan, Yan Weizhi and others, united and killed Li Zhan.

Today's son Li Yi, although he is only thirteen years old, is a veritable polo master.

Li Yi sat in the stands on the second floor of the front hall and loudly announced the rules of the game, this time Tian Lingzi team and Li Jing team each produced a ten-person polo team, the two sides played a total of three games, each game for half an hour, with a quarter of an hour rest in between. In the three games, the side with the most balls in the opponent's goal wins, and the winning side will serve as the shogunate of the Daida Datong Army, and the losing side will not be without rewards, and the losing side will serve as the Marshal of Youzhou Lulong. As for the competition for positions in the two towns, they are selected according to the number of goals scored by each team. (To be continued......)
