Chapter 79： entertainment

Li Zishou dismissed all the attendants, just to watch the game in peace, so she didn't know who was in the building, so she asked Yang Dejin: "Yeludia is playing a game, and the one sitting in the building is Ayigu Korea?"

Yang Dejin shook her head: "It's not Ayiguli, the one sitting with Lu Xiaoying seems to be called Wu Bizhen?"

"Salted egg essence? He is the deputy representative of the envoy, and a subordinate of Jerodel."

"Ha...probably, Ayigul is not here anyway."

"Oh."

Yang Dejin remembered that the empress did not come, and asked again: "Where's Bai Qingyang? Why didn't she come out to watch the game with you?"

"Uh..." Li Zichou said vaguely, "I don't know, maybe he was reviewing papers in the palace."

"I'll go..." Yang Dejin looked heartbroken, "You left your work to Bai Qingyang, and then ran over to watch others play polo.

"Li Zichou, why are you acting like this, isn't it kind?!"

"Huh?" Li Zichou heard the words, as if he had found a loophole in her words, and immediately retorted, "You don't have the right to criticize me!"

Yang Dejin blinked: "...?"

"Today's match was also organized by Xie Zhi himself from beginning to end, you didn't put any effort into it, did you?!"

Yang Dejin: "Ah, this..."

"You only found out this morning that Dasheng had an appointment with Shuobei, right?!"

"That is…"

"You don't even know who's sitting in the building!"

"..."

Seeing Li Zichou's condemning sentences endlessly, Yang Dejin quickly interrupted her: "All right, all right! I take back what I just said, and I will reward you for your conscience."

Li Zichou snorted coldly, turned back and continued watching the game.

"What I mean is, you should call Bai Qingyang out together. It's no fun to be bored in the palace all the time."

Li Zichou nodded indiscriminately, his eyes wandering: "She won't come out by herself..."

Li Zishou's attitude was so strange, even Yang Dejin realized something was wrong, and after thinking carefully, he asked quietly: "You and her...haven't talked about it yet?"

Now Li Zifu was silent.

Yang Dejin: "Wow, Li Zichou, you are such an elm head!"

Li Zichou: "... Regarding this point, I think I have the right to defend myself."

Yang Dejin: "Oh."

"..."

"Isn't there no chance!" Li Zichou suddenly yelled loudly, "I can't go to Yuheng Palace and suddenly say 'what do you think?'?"

Yang Dejin blinked, as if she didn't understand: "Why not?"

Li Zishou: "..."

"You, it's just too wood." Yang Dejin simply lifted off his robe and sat next to her, "However, elm has its advantages."

"Em is so real, as long as you can ask, you will definitely get a response.

"Action is more important than anything else, don't always think about letting things take their course, that's just an excuse for inaction.

"How many relationships are lost because of letting nature take its course, and when something is wrong, it will be very difficult to recover."

Li Zichou: "Yang Dejin, I don't remember you ever being in a relationship."

"…how?"

"You are now like a female lecturer who is proficient in human nature."

"..." Yang Dejin made a black line, "It's an epiphany, can't it?!"

"I understand what you're saying, but I need to think about how to phrase it."

Yang Dejin: "If there's anything else to think about, just speak plainly. Bai Qingyang will come as he pleases, life is the most important thing."

Li Zifu compromised: "...you are right."

After talking about this, the two mentioned the polo match that was in full swing below.

Yang Dejin: "The prairie people are obviously playing with us. The score is very tight, and Dasheng is always a little behind."

Li Zichou frowned and thought for a while: "Then, is there anything you can do?"

Playing polo is a compulsory item for Dasheng's army. The generals of the city defense department are already among the best. If this level can't match Shuobei, then there is really no way.

"No."

"I do not have either."

The two were silent for a while, both racking their brains to find a way.

"Forget it, let Shuobei be arrogant for a while, and be the first to be polite and then the soldier." After thinking to no avail, Yang Dejin got up, "I'm going down, do you want to come together?"

Li Zichou also stood up, but shook his head and said, "Go ahead and read, I'll go to Shangshusheng."

Yang Dejin thought for a while: "I'm very busy, that's okay."

After the two said goodbye, they went down the tower in different directions.

Yang Dejin talked to Li Zichou for a long time, but he missed a quarter of the game and wanted to go to the stadium to check the score. As soon as I got down from the city tower, I saw several military doctors rushing into the arena with medicine boxes in their hands.

Yang Dejin had a bad intuition, and only after asking the commander did he find out that the game had been suspended and someone was injured.

A young lieutenant was carried off the field by the military doctor's shoulders. His head was wrapped with a white gauze, and blood was faintly oozing out. Walking is also limping, it seems that the injury is not serious.

Looking at his clothes, Yang Dejin recognized that it was the young general who scored in the opening swing.

It turned out that the sixth quarter of the game was at its peak.

Several players from Dasheng and Shuobei were entangled to fight for the ball. In the chaos, whoever's cane hit the little captain, knocked off his mask, and smashed a long **** on his forehead.

Originally blocked by the mask, the injury was not serious, but due to the chaos at the scene, he fell off the horse and rolled several times on the ground.

Fortunately, it fell on the open ground and was not stepped on by the horse's hoof. But his hands and feet were all injured, and there was dust and blood in his eyes, so he definitely couldn't continue the game.

It was already a difficult game, but now we lost another general, how can this compare?

The auditorium also seemed very angry because of this situation, no matter men, women or children, they complained loudly.

"Shuobei people don't talk about martial arts! How can they beat people?!"

"They have never been polite, honest and shameless, and will do anything to win!"

"It doesn't matter! Even if he loses his appearance, he is still a good son-in-law of my family!"

"You want to win that much?! Then I'll just give you the top spot!"

"That can't be done! Give them something beautiful, and the grassland people will make progress!"

Yang Dejin: "..." Did something strange get mixed in?

"The people in the city defense battalion are too useless. They can't even compare to a few prairie barbarians. What are they doing?"

"What? It's easy to say, why don't you go?!"

"Don't make sarcastic remarks. Even the city defense battalion can only be inferior. I'm afraid no one can compare."

"Hey, that's wrong. I heard that there are so many masters in the Shence Army. If they can play, it won't be difficult for them to win."

"But the Shence Army stays in the Beiya of the Imperial Palace, and they can't fight without the permission of Her Majesty the Empress."

"Yes, why is Her Majesty the Queen silent..."

Having said that, several people who were discussing looked at the small building on stilts opposite.

Yang Dejin casually looked at the chaotic outside, but actually listened to the conversations of others.

Li Zishou had just left, and the Shence Army was in the palace again, and they couldn't move without the emperor's order. What should we do?

"Go to Shangshu Province to find the emperor, and tell me that I need her imperial army, hurry up." Yang Dejin told the people around her.

There is no way, the rescuer must be moved, so let's suspend the game for a while.

Yinniang, who came out of nowhere, didn't have any doubts about the content of the task, and just took the order conscientiously: "Yes, Your Highness." After saying that, she disappeared like the wind.

The players of the city defense department over there were at a loss, and Ji Zhuilu was blown away, and he was outputting tons in his waiting area.

"You son of a bitch, Shuobei, you don't even want to win face, you're a **** criminal!"

Someone persuaded: "Commander, you should keep your voice down, it won't affect the people in Shuobei."

"What's wrong with hearing that?! F*ck, no* no* no* raised prairie dead*! Let them hear it!"

Several generals looked at each other in blank dismay, and they couldn't directly cover their boss's mouth, they could only stare at each other dryly.

Yang Dejin originally wanted to say something, but she heard Ji Zhuilu from a long distance away singing birds and flowers, so she was not sure whether to go there.

Ji Zhuilu usually looks quite polite, why is he so aggressive when he scolds others?

horrible.

"I've seen Prince Yu." Someone noticed Yang Dejin wandering a few steps away, and the generals saluted her one after another.

Yang Dejin cut to the chase and said, "My lords, you have worked hard. Does the City Defense Department have any replacements?"

Ji Zhuilu cupped his hands, and replied: "Yes, there are, but... they are all quite satisfactory, and there is no special one."

At this time, someone interrupted: "The people from Shuobei are too insidious, they just killed our power forward, and our configuration is completely messed up."

Yang Dejin didn't beat around the bush, and directly suggested: "I have a backup candidate, I don't know if the City Defense Department is willing to use it."

When the generals heard the words, there was a bit of surprise on their faces, and even more doubts in their eyes. They didn't know what Prince Yu wanted to do.

Ji Zhuilu was originally a member of Prince Yu's faction. He was not as guarded against Yang Dejin as other generals, but asked hesitantly, "Can I win?"

Yang Dejin said without confidence but very honestly: "I don't know."

"..." Several people were relatively speechless.

Ji Zhuilu was also a little speechless: "Then you..."

"But the City Defense Division can fight boldly without worrying about winning or losing."

Ji Zhuilu: "...What do you mean?"

Yang Dejin: "It means that the king asked to change the person, and the king can take responsibility for the victory or defeat of the city defense department."

One of the officers couldn't believe it: "Your Majesty's words are serious? But the Queen..."

Before the Si had finished speaking, Ji Zhuilu raised his elbow, and the person concerned seemed to realize that he had said something wrong, and shut his mouth embarrassingly.

Yang Dejin didn't seem to notice, and only urged: "My king's people are coming, do you need them or not?"

Ji Zhuilu exchanged glances with the others and made up his mind: "Use it!"

The game in the eighth quarter was resumed, and all the city defense teams played with new faces, and the interrupted game restarted.

Yang Dejin didn't want to watch it anymore, the weather was too hot, she wanted to go back to the palace.

Seeing that she had lost interest, Xie Zhi offered to go back to the Ministry of Criminal Affairs to watch the case, and Yang Dejin also took this opportunity to sneak away.

The two walked around the stands and walked towards the gate of the city defense department.

"Your Highness has worked so hard to win." Xie Zhi said lightly.

Yang Dejin glanced at Xie Zhi: "You have seen it all." As expected of Xie Zhi.

Xie Zhi sighed: "You didn't hide it from me, of course I know."

Yang Dejin snorted.

The foreign aid who came was wearing ordinary attire, Xie Zhi probably didn't know their identities as soldiers of the Imperial Army.

Sure enough, Xie Zhi didn't hold on to this question, but asked, "Are you free tonight?"

"Huh? I'm free. Do you have something to do with me?"

Xie Zhi: "Today is the Ghost Festival, I think..." Before he could finish speaking, his footsteps stopped.

"What do you want to do..." Before Yang Dejin could say "what", he saw an unexpected visitor approaching in front of him.

"I have seen Prince Yu and Lord Xie."

Looking at this face from a few steps away, Yang Dejin still found it very seductive, and even greeted her with a smile: "Princess Ayigul."

"..." Xie Zhi glanced at Yang Dejin, and then replied with the corners of his mouth slightly pulled, "I've seen the princess."

Yang Dejin: "The princess came to the City Defense Department to look for Prince Diera?"

Ayiguli said with a smile: "That's right, I'll come to see Brother Wang and pick him up for a meal together. If Your Highness doesn't mind, would you like to have a little reunion?"

Just as Yang Dejin was about to refuse, Xie Zhi said, "Your Highness wants to accompany me to the Ministry of Criminal Justice. Please forgive me for refusing the princess' kindness."

Ayigul looked at Xie Zhi in surprise, thinking that the staff around Prince Yu were really on guard.

"You can do work anytime, so Prince Yu will fulfill my little sister's wish." Yeludi's voice came from behind the two of them.

Yang Dejin turned her head in astonishment: "Prince Diera, shouldn't you be competing?"

Yeludie said with a smile: "I have never seriously injured any of Dasheng's players. If I stay on the field shamelessly, it's not good at all, so I will leave the field early."

Xie Zhi frowned instantly when he heard his words, this is not because he gave up the game because of guilt, this is clearly saying: Without him, Yeludiela, Shuobei can still win Dasheng.

"My little sister has admired His Royal Highness Prince Yu for a long time. She has a thin skin. Only my brother, the prince, invited me on her behalf. Prince Yu will save face."

"Brother Wang, why did you say this suddenly?!" Ayiguli exclaimed, her cheeks blushing suspiciously.

"This..." Yang Dejin hesitated.

Although she knew it was a polite remark, she couldn't shirk it if she really got entangled with Shuo Bei and the other two, otherwise she would be made a fuss by someone with a heart.

After thinking about it, he still said to Xie Zhi: "Zhi Rui, why don't you go to the Ministry of Criminal Justice first, you have also seen that the prince invited me to a party."

And when Xie Zhi heard the phrase "admiration", his face was expressionless, and he was even inexplicably uncomfortable when he looked at Ayiguli.

The little princess in Shuobei was still immersed in the shame of being betrayed by Yeludie, and didn't pay attention to Xie Zhi's hostility at all.

Xie Zhi: "I will accompany His Highness."

Yang Dejin: "Ah? But aren't you going to handle the case?"

"As Prince Deira said, work can be done at any time, but the opportunity to get together is rare." Xie Zhi replied without leaking, "And I'm also an envoy, the prince won't mind having an extra mouth, right?"

"of course not."

Hearing this, Xie Zhi nodded in satisfaction.

It's just that Jerodia was a little puzzled, he could feel Xie Zhi's hostility towards him, but he didn't know where this hostility came from, just like meeting him for the first time outside the city that day.

After thinking about it, I attributed this phenomenon to the maintenance of the lord by the retainers.

"Prince Yu, you have found a good staff member." Yeludila looked at Xie Zhi and praised.

The topic jumped so fast that Yang Dejin didn't react at all, and answered absent-mindedly: "It's okay." Who is he talking about?

Xie Zhi remained silent, noncommittal.

Since it was decided to have a meal together, it was natural that Yang Dejin, who was the host, proposed the treat.

On the streets outside the city defense camp, the four of them exchanged warm greetings while walking.

"Prince Yu, you and I are both nobles. Although our family and country are different, in my opinion..." Yeludeira said suddenly, "Are you and I not each other's bosom friends?"

Yang Dejin: "Wang Zixiong is so talented, how dare I compare with you."

Jeludia laughed and shook his head: "Prince Yu is humble, we are not without similarities."

Yeludeira's words were twisted, and it was obvious that there was something in his words.

Yang Dejin didn't understand, and wanted to ask again, but he changed the subject and said, "Today, Prince Yu and I must get drunk!"

Xie Zhi: "Your Highness's body is not suitable for drinking too much alcohol."

Yang Dejin knew that Xie Zhi was helping him to evade, so he answered, "Yeah, drinking too much hurts your health, I rarely touch alcohol."

She still remembered that someone poisoned the wine at the Qujiang Banquet, and that case has not been solved until now. Moreover, drinking can easily paralyze thinking and cause troubles, Yang Dejin dare not try boldly.

Yeludeira said yes, paused, and said, "No problem, I brought the kumiss from our grassland, it's not intoxicating."

His younger sister also echoed, "In Shuobei, it's also called Yuanyujiang. It has the benefits of invigorating blood and relaxing muscles. His Royal Highness Prince Yu must try it."

Yang Dejin and Xie Zhi looked at each other, and felt that it would be inappropriate to refuse further.

Anyway, her drinking capacity is not bad. When she was in college, she drank two glasses of white at once without blushing. Anyway, she drank kumiss as a soft drink.

Besides, with Xie Zhi by his side, what are you afraid of?

"Then I'd rather be respectful... Aw!" Yang Dejin hadn't finished speaking when she was hit by a small black figure on her right waist, so hard that she staggered.

Xie Zhi immediately grabbed the child by the back collar, keeping him away from Yang Dejin.

"I'm sorry! I'm sorry, gentlemen! I didn't... I didn't look at the road and bumped into some adults!" The child was wearing a rough jacket with patches on his body, with a disheveled appearance, looking A little embarrassed.

The little boy looked up and saw a few rich and noble ladies in brocade clothes. He panicked immediately, and after apologizing repeatedly, he was about to kneel and kowtow.

"Please, adults, please forgive me!"

"Hey, hey, you get up first." Yang Dejin signaled Xie Zhi to pull the child up.

Ever since she reached the age when she was supposed to give red envelopes to relatives' children during the Chinese New Year, Yang Dejin was very sensitive to the fact that a child knelt down to her.

He was pulled up by Xie Zhi, but he still had a panicked expression on his face, his facial features were almost wrinkled, as if he was afraid of Xie Zhi.

"Xie Zhirui..." Yang Dejin looked at the child's bitter face, then looked at Xie Zhi's hand, and said, "Did you grab it too hard?"

Xie Zhi: "I don't use my strength, what if he runs away?"

Yang Dejin: "Do I look like someone who cares about a child?"

Xie Zhi: "..."

Yang Dejin: "Let it go."

Xie Zhi: "But he..."

Yang Dejin: "Let it go."

"..."

Only then did Xie Zhi slowly let go of the child's hand, and before Yang Dejin could speak again, he took advantage of the gap and ran away.

Xie Zhi could have caught up, but she didn't move, she just folded her arms and said to Yang Dejin: "I advise you to see if your purse is still there."

Yang Dejin also thought of something, and quickly rummaged through her body.

Jeludiala: "What? Was the purse stolen?"

Yang Dejin shook her head, and took out a small cloth bag embroidered with gold thread from her arms: "No...it's still there."

Ayigul also asked eagerly: "Is there any money missing?"

"I put this money bag through my clothes, how can it be so easy to be touched?" As if to prove it, Yang Dejin poured all the coins inside into the palm of his hand, "No more, no less, exactly ten gold tongbao."

The two people in Shuobei breathed a sigh of relief, but Xie Zhi's face changed, obviously he didn't expect his guess to be wrong.

"how come…"

Hearing Xie Zhi's whisper, Yang Dejin turned to look at her: "Xie Zhi, aren't you being too sensitive, you'll be a brat if you act recklessly, my money is fine."

"...Maybe, right." Xie Zhi pursed his lips and had to admit.

"Oh, since there is a misunderstanding, let's not get entangled." Sensing that the atmosphere between the two was a bit tense, Yelu came out and laughed.

Ayiguli: "Perhaps it's due to Xie Shilang's official duties, so he must be more vigilant."

Xie Zhi frowned and said bluntly, "I didn't..."

Yang Dejin had a big heart, but she thought it was nothing. She could understand Xie Zhi's suspicion: "Okay, I don't blame you, let's go." After speaking, he patted Xie Zhi's upper arm.

Xie Zhi looked at the direction in which the child ran away for a while, a little puzzled.

Her ability to recognize people can be used by all ages. Just now, the child's eyes were wandering, and he deliberately avoided meeting his eyes. It was obvious that he had done something and felt guilty, but why...

"Xie Zhirui," Yang Dejin called her, "Don't look, let's go."

Xie Zhi withdrew his gaze and nodded, "Yes."

Maybe I really worry too much.

The author has something to say:

Li Zichou: Do you know how to drink? Can't you drink it?

Yang Dejin: Just kidding, I am a dignified business school lady, I don't know how to drink, is it reasonable? !

Li Zichou: ...Then why didn't you drink at the Qujiang banquet?

Yang Dejin: I don't dare to do it on that occasion.

Li Zishou: All right.
