At the age of two, Qing Rou, with her chubby little fingers, ma...
At this moment, everyone realized what was happening, and several burly men from Mongolia stood up and applauded them.
What a show of respect! Such a wonderful performance! They truly deserve to be called the fine sons of Mongolia! They held their chins slightly high, looking quite proud. Even if they lost the match, they wouldn't lose face in front of the Qing people because of this one performance!
This was indeed the most spectacular goal so far. Both the interception and Gitto's quick reaction and subsequent goal were dazzling.
People had been sitting here for quite a while and were probably a little tired, but this goal reignited the atmosphere. Everyone was watching the game intently, wondering what kind of changes would occur.
It was truly a loss for Mongolia to score that goal. Even the Red team couldn't say anything, because none of them could have done as well as Antu. Who would have thought they had such incredible ability?
So they felt both regret and admiration!
Emperor Kangxi also applauded. "Heroes are emerging from among the young! They truly are the finest talents of your Khorchin. I see that every single one of them is outstanding!"
Wenying and the others had bright eyes. Although they supported the red team, how could they not praise such a wonderful goal?
Although their stance is very firm, how can they not be convinced by their strength?
Sitting diagonally in front of them were Mingxuan and her companions. Knowing that they would be marrying into the Mongol tribes in the future, they didn't really want to participate, but they were still dragged along by their elders in the palace.
There was no way to refuse my elders, so I naturally had to come along, but I wasn't planning to watch it seriously.
I was initially uninterested, thinking it was just barbarians fighting over a ball, but at this point I couldn't help but get a little mesmerized. It was truly spectacular!
They can also ride horses and shoot arrows, but they could never perform such superb movements.
Those civil servants watching the game now are probably just enjoying the spectacle. Only those who have actually ridden horses and mastered them know how difficult it is to develop a tacit understanding with a horse, let alone perform such dangerous maneuvers... especially in the tense atmosphere of a game. It would be excellent if they could execute the movements smoothly, let alone pass the ball so quickly...
They always have a certain fondness for those who are talented or brave in battle, not to mention how dashing and clean they are when playing polo, making people exclaim how beautiful they are!
After suffering a setback, the red team must have become even more cautious. Hearing the cheers, but knowing they weren't directed at them, they felt even more upset.
However, these young boys are never going to give up, so they focused even more intently on the ball in front of them, constantly creating obstacles for their opponents!
They put in all their effort to win the ball back, and after a few back-and-forths, the game became increasingly intense and exciting!
It's simply dazzling.
Wen Ying's brother, Sado, is quite capable. With his excellent teamwork, he managed to steal the ball from Sakci and then scored, drawing cheers from the crowd.
They quickly leveled the score, which had been somewhat tilted.
Wenying was so excited that her face turned a little red.
It's my older brother! That's amazing!
Wenying and her brother had a very close relationship. When their father was serving in another city, she and her brother stayed by his side. How happy their family was back then! Although they had moved to the capital, they faced more constraints...
Sometimes when her grandmother was criticizing her, it was her brother who always stood up for her.
The two sides went back and forth. Although Antula, Sakchi, and Gitó were individually quite strong, they hadn't been together for very long, so their teamwork was far less effective than that of the Red team, which put them at a disadvantage.
On the other hand, the red team may not have any particularly outstanding individual players, but they still managed to inflict a heavy loss on the red team through their excellent teamwork and flexible tactics.
In addition, after conceding a goal like that, Sado had already lost face, and he became even more determined to fight back, which caused a lot of trouble.
This time it was a back-and-forth affair, and in the end neither side gained an advantage. In the final moments of the polo match, Gito scored a goal, and Mongolia won the game by one point.
However, both sides were convinced of the truth.
This match was truly exhausting, yet exhilarating. Both the spectators and the players felt thoroughly satisfied.
In competitions like these, sometimes winning or losing isn't that important. Although I'm still a little disappointed, what matters most is finding teammates to play with.
As the event was about to end, Antula and the others came over to shake hands with Sado and his group as a gesture of goodwill.
Sado and his team were naturally saddened by the loss, but they also greatly admired having such an opponent.
Especially Antula's move was truly unexpected... Even now, thinking back on it still brings back memories that send chills down my spine... He was indeed formidable.
Anyone of them would be an unsolvable problem if placed here.
Even if they did it themselves, they couldn't do it that well, so what's there to complain about? They're clearly technically superior…
"Can my brother do it?" When they excitedly talked about it at the dinner table that evening, Jingrou asked the people around her.
Qi Jia had just returned from the academy when his father dragged him to the training ground for a good workout. He had just gone back to take a bath and then had dinner together when he heard Jing Rou mention this matter at the dinner table.
He certainly couldn't find the time to participate in any polo match. However, he had heard about this particular game and hadn't expected it to be so exciting!
If I knew, I might be able to take some time to look at it.
As the third generation of Prince An's family, and the eldest grandson, he has shouldered the responsibilities of the family since childhood. Now he has begun to help his mother with chores and has been involved in many affairs of the family...
Jingrou felt that without her maternal grandfather at the dinner table, even eating tasted bland, so she deliberately brought it up to liven up the atmosphere...
When will my grandfather be able to come back soon? When will his injuries be healed?
