The sound of thunderous hooves woke Li Jing from his brief light sleep. The golden sun had already shone into the bedroom through the delicate wooden windows.

Li Jing stood up, walked to the window with his strong upper body naked, and looked down from the window on the third floor. In the small martial arts field in the mansion, the fully armed guards of the Zhenguo Army were conducting morning exercises. The guards of the suburbs in silver cloaks were galloping on horseback, fencing, practicing arrows, or riding horses to chop dummies, and knights were chopping wooden stakes.

Li Jing saw Xin Feng galloping through the hard soil and piercing the scarecrow's head. The cloth was broken and the straw was flying. The guards of the Silver Guns and the Suburbs were laughing and praising.

It turns out that the swordsman is still old and his heroic spirit is still there!

This is the mansion in Qinrenfang, Chang'an, which was the residence given to Li Jing by the emperor. Originally, Li Jing had always lived in the Bashang military camp when he was in the capital, but the emperor did not agree and gave the mansion in Jurenfang for Li Jing to move in.

Qinrenfang, also known as "Qinrenli", is located in the east of the second street in the east of Zhuque Street, facing Xuanyang Street in the north, and Yongning Street in the south, and the layout of Qinrenfang is the same as other streets in the north and south, and is divided into four major districts by the large cross street in the yard. Each district has a small cross street, and there are sixteen communities in the branch. There are also "allies" and "curves". There are rammed earth yard walls outside the yard, and four doors are opened on all sides, located on the fourth of the six high slopes passing through Luocheng.

Qinrenfang is adjacent to the Imperial City, located in the core area of ​​Chang'an City, only one yard away from the Imperial College, and close to the Wannian County Party of Jingzhao Prefecture. It is a typical "prime location". Most of them are home to famous families and ministers.

The famous houses in the yard include the Yuanying house of King Teng, the Duke of Yan, Yu Zhining, and the minister of Feng Gun. Gun is the son of Feng Su, the governor of Dongchuan, Jiannan, and the father of Emperor Xuanzong of Tang, Li Dan, the old residence of the franchise of the princess of the Dai Kingdom, Zheng Wanjun, the residence of Zheng Wang Kun, the residence of the secretary of the Secretariat, Yang Hongwu, the residence of the chief minister of the Secretariat, Wang Xijun, the residence of Princess Changle, An Lushan house, Guo Ziyi, the residence of Baima County of Huazhou, Sun Qi, the residence of Liu Zongyuan, the residence of Princess Xihua, the residence of Princess Li Guochang, the residence of father of son, Lu Zhi, the residence of Princess Dianshenlang, Weijun house, Li Shi, etc.

The most luxurious one in the yard is the mansion of Guo Ziyi, the prince of Fenyang County. One quarter of the name of the quinrenfang is that the entire quinrenfang and the Guo family account for one quarter. In the Guo Mansion, the various wards have to ride horses and ride cars. The family members are three thousand. Although it is a bit exaggerated, it can be seen that it is ordinary. In addition, there are also the old houses of the vassals of the Ruizong Li Dan, and the mansions of the three princesses.

In addition, the Hu generals such as An Lushan and Li Guochang were once given homes to the family.

As the favorite minister in front of the emperor, Li Jing also rewarded Li Jing with a large mansion in his relatives. This mansion is extremely large, almost equivalent to Guo's house.

The hall is high and the top is high, and the house is wide and the car is wide.

Such a large mansion, everything is ready. When Li Jing came in, there were countless servants, all the housekeepers, the dark-body Kunlun slaves, the beautiful Silla maids. The Sogdians who were the best at calculating business, and the eunuchs pulled out of the palace as the chief supervisor of the mansion. There were even several teams of singers and dancers. There were actually thousands of servants in the entire mansion.

The weather was clear and warm and comfortable. Li Jing and the generals of the Zhenguo Army who stayed in Beijing had breakfast together. Xin Xi and his two nephews were also invited to have dinner together. The breakfast was very rich. The new Duke of Qi Mansion had a team of nearly 100 people in the kitchen, which was available for purchase, first dishes, side dishes, chop vegetables, stir-fry, cook, wash dishes, serve dishes, serve tea, wine, and serve meals.

The restaurant is also very large, sitting inside is like a palace.

Xin Xi sat there without much appetite, only drank some white porridge, and seemed to be still angry about the emperor's absurd behavior. However, generals such as Lin Wu and Wang Chong were all swallowing each other, destroying the food in front of them like wind and clouds.

"Brother Xin is ready?"

Xin Xi put down his chopsticks and said calmly: "Although he is best at using swords, he is still proficient in polo. He is only more than enough to deal with people like Chen Jingxuan."

Half an hour later, Li Jing, Wang Chong, Lin Wu and other leaders of the Zhenguo Army and Xin Xi went to the palace together. Li Jing's six disciples and Xin Xi's two nephews also followed. When they arrived at the Linde Hall in the palace, Mi Haiwan, Shi Jingcun and Qi Bizhang had already arrived. When they saw Li Jing coming, they all came forward happily to say hello, and their tone was full of welcome. This time, Li Jing recommended them to compete for peace with the Datong Army, which surprised and grateful.

"You don't have to be grateful to you. Whether the matter can be accomplished depends on your performance." Li Jing was not willing to recommend these three people, but Tian Lingzi recommended four people. There was no suitable candidate for Li Jing, so he had to recommend them together. After all, these people themselves are the governors of the three northern prefectures.

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

This polo match, which was related to the position of Jiedu, was not open to the public. There were still many emperors and princes who could come to watch. There were still two high stands on both sides of the front hall of Linde Hall, and at this time they were filled with royal relatives.

The emperor had arrived early, wearing military uniforms, and holding a foot-long club in his hand.

On the side of the court, Tian Lingzi had already arrived with a group of generals from Zuo Shence Army. Chen Jingxuan and others had changed into polo uniforms, each holding a horse-horse BMW, holding a club. Seeing Li Jing coming, Tian Lingzi came forward with a smile and greeted him warmly. Li Jing also said a few words to him with a smile on the surface.

Looking at the countless nobles in Linde Hall waiting to watch the game, Li Jing sighed in his heart. Everyone was just waiting to watch the fun, but he never thought that the emperor even used such an important position as a Jiedushi to let the people below compete for the bets. What hope does such an imperial court have?

Polo was an extremely popular game in the Tang Dynasty. From emperors to peddlers and pawns, they all loved it. Even aristocratic ladies and even prostitutes, there were many people who knew polo, and there were even special palace maid polo teams in the palace. Almost all the noble families in the capital had a special polo team. Even imperial guards such as the Jinwu Guard and the Shence Army had their own polo teams.

In Chang'an, there are countless polo stadiums.

However, compared with the more popular cushion, hitting the ball immediately is obviously more high-end and elegant. Since you must have a good horse to play polo, polo has become an aristocratic sport, just like golf in later generations.

Polo has become the favorite sport of royal nobles. There are many stadiums across the country, playing basketball has become a trend, and it has been strongly advocated by royal members. It was the heyday of polo. 11 emperors of the Tang Dynasty loved this sport deeply, and two even died because of playing basketball.

Emperor Taizong of Tang Dynasty, Li Shimin, liked to play polo, and he also liked to watch people play. For a while, he often went to a stadium to watch ball. As a result, many people with hearts deliberately ran there to play ball in the hope of attracting the emperor's attention. As a result, Emperor Taizong of Tang quickly understood and 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 fans of the Tang Dynasty, Emperor Xuanzong of Tang, Li Longji was a hard-core fan. When Li Longji was 24 years old, the Tubo polo team played against the Tang Dynasty polo team. The Tang Dynasty team lost one after another, which made Li Longji very dissatisfied. He personally found three royal members to fight against Tubo. Finally, Li Longji formed the Tang noble team and fought against the Tubo ten-player polo team. He ran back and forth like the wind, swinged the ball stick, and was invincible, and pierced through the opponent's goal and won a complete victory, winning the first diplomatic ball game of the Tang Dynasty, which made Emperor Zhongzong of Tang very happy.

In August of the first year of Kaiyuan of Emperor Xuanzong of Tang Dynasty, Li Longji, 31, ascended the throne, and his addiction to polo remained unchanged. The poem "The Poem of the Emperor's Playing Ball" says: "The palace gates opened in the daytime, Sanlang was drunk and returned to play basketball, and the old man was old, Han died, and there should be no memorials tomorrow." In the sixth year of Tianbao, 35 years after Emperor Xuanzong of Tang ascended the throne, he even issued a special edict stipulation stipulation stipulation in the army, so polo became a training subject in the army.

After Emperor Xuanzong of Tang, Muzong Li Heng was also a super polo fan, and later died of injury to playing basketball. Muzong died and after Jingzong Li Zhan ascended the throne, his obsession with polo has increased. He had a group of polo professionals selected from all over the country in the Royal Inner Garden. These skilled polo players are called "playing ball worship". Although the ball worship has high skills, in the eyes of the emperor, it is just a kind of entertainment toy. Their lives and life are not guaranteed. Emperor Jingzong of Tang Li Zhan was a moody tyrant monarch who was happy with the disability of others. He often called playing basketball to worship the ball in the middle of the night, so that the tragic incident of "breaking the head and folding the arms" often occurred. But he enjoyed it. The cruel and violent behavior finally aroused the resistance of the ball worshipers.

In December of the second year of Baoli (826), Li Zhan was hunting in the suburbs and it was midnight when he returned to the palace. Suddenly, he woke up the ball-playing envoys from his sleep and asked them to play for fun. At this time, the horse was trapped and unprepared, and it was dark in the middle of the night, making it more likely to have dangerous accidents. Li Zhan was determined to act without listening to others' advice. In order to satisfy his cruel nature, he had to hurt the horse and be disabled.

Unable to bear it, the ball-playing enshrines Su Zuoming, Wang Jiaxian, Shi Congkuan, Yan Weizhi and others, joined forces to kill Li Zhan.

Although Li Yan is only thirteen years old today, he is a real polo master.
