Intelligent and Protective Young Lady VS Gentle and Reserved Young Master.
Miss Hua Fushu, the eldest daughter of the Hua family, has a fiancé who is the legitimate son of the Grand General&...
Zhao Ciyuan was furious: "Absurd, full of nonsense!"
Hua Fushu said with a smile: "Why don't you go up and play a game, I'm afraid you won't even be able to touch the club of Miss Wu."
Zhao Ciyuan was really angry, but he still had his rationality. He pulled the young man named Zichen away from his seat and sat at a seat far away from them.
Hua Fushu drank his tea leisurely, put down the teacup casually, took out a silk handkerchief and wiped the water stains from the corner of his mouth, "Now you can talk freely."
Lu Tianyun was at a loss for words, and finally offered only one word of comfort, "Fushu, since ancient times, women have been inferior to men. Women rely on men for survival. Some things can be said behind their backs."
Hua Fushu looked at Lu Tianyun and said seriously, "Tianyun, we women are of lower status than men, but we don't have to rely on men. Women can also create different worlds. There is no eternal truth in the world. Only people's choices change."
Her bright eyes reflected a unique color, and her expression was extremely serious.
As Lu Tianyun listened, a serious look suddenly formed between his brows. He pondered over Hua Fushu's words, which seemed to make some sense. There was Fu Hao before and Princess Pingyang Zhao after, which proved that women could be just as capable as men.
She glanced at Hua Fushu and saw that Hua Fushu was staring at the court. The two teams of players were chasing each other and grabbing the ball in an intense game. The eldest girl of the Shui family was holding the reins and standing upright in the stirrups. She swung the club and hit the ball in the air, changing its direction and leaving Ye Zelin with an opportunity.
Hua Fushu said, "Shui Youyou is amazing. She was able to intercept the ball from Ye Zelin. Shui Lingling is also good, as is the Wu family girl. On the red team, only the three of them are capable players. The others are just supporting roles. The yellow team has Ye Zelin, Princess Yurong, Ye Songyan, and Yan Xijun, four powerful players. Ling Zhiheng, the young master of the Wu family, and the prince of Qinghe also played well. The enemy is numerous and we are few. The outcome is clear, but it is also an unfair victory."
Lu Tianyun was slightly startled and asked, "Fushu, can you play polo?"
Hua Fushu didn't hide anything and said truthfully, "Yes." Lu Tianyun then asked, "How does it compare to Youyou and Lingling?"
Hua Fushu said, "Slightly better."
Sanqiao interrupted, "Girl, can you be more humble?"
Hua Fushu turned around and smiled at Sanqiao, "No."
Sanqiao was speechless and looked at Bisi.
Lu Tianyun said, "Fushu, based on what you said, the Red Team will definitely lose in the first half. Do you think the Red Team has a chance of winning in the second half?"
Hua Fushu said, "The Red Team is already at a disadvantage and has been unable to turn the tide. Their initial momentum has faded, and their third momentum has been exhausted. Given the current situation, the Red Team's chances of winning in the second half are almost zero. If Ye Zelin and Yan Xijun don't play in the second half, the Red Team still has a chance of winning. Alternatively, if one or two players who are as skilled as Yan Xijun replace their weakest player, the Red Team's chances of winning will greatly increase."
Lu Tianyun sighed softly, "Everyone who can be considered an expert in polo in the sealed city is already here. It's almost impossible for the Red Team to find someone who can match Xijun."
Hua Fushu smiled calmly, ate a piece of dessert, and continued to watch the game. He even felt sympathy for the girls, "Why can't Ye Zelin go easy on them? The red team is mostly made up of delicate girls."
Sanqiao held up her chin and continued, "Miss, if your husband showed pity for women, you would probably get jealous."
Son-in-law?
Lu Tianyun and Bisi looked at Hua Fushu. Hua Fushu turned around and stared at Sanqiao with dissatisfaction. Sanqiao suddenly realized that she had said the wrong thing.
Lu Tianyun smiled and said, "Fushu, so you are the young lady of the Ye family who is so rare and elusive that the ladies of the imperial family have been talking about."
Hua Fushu did not deny it, but instead asked Lu Tianyun, "Am I so mysterious?"
Lu Tianyun laughed and said, "No wonder I searched all over the capital but couldn't find any news about you. I didn't expect you to be the young lady of the general's mansion."
Thinking of Lu Tianyun helping her, Hua Fushu felt a little guilty. "The circumstances that day were special. I hope Tianyun will be more understanding."
Lu Tianyun smiled faintly, without any intention of blaming Hua Fushu, so Hua Fushu felt guiltless, and the two continued to watch the game.
As the incense stick gradually burned out, it turned out to be just as Hua Fushu had said: the red team lost and the yellow team won, and it was three games in a row.
Suddenly, drums and music started to play, cheering for the yellow team, and the people watching the game also cheered.
Princess Anguo stood up and laughed out loud, "Every one of our sons and daughters in the Great Song Dynasty is talented in both literature and martial arts. Look at this Erlang from the Ye family, he can lead troops in battle and is also a good ball player. My niece's daughter-in-law's sons, Arong and Ajue, and the Shui and Wu families are all outstanding."
Madam Ouyang and others also stood up. She and Princess Qinghe both said that the Grand Princess was too kind.
Madam Hu said with a smile, "Sister Ouyang, Princess, please don't be so modest. Everyone knows that your children are all outstanding. Not to mention your brothers, your daughters alone are the best among noble ladies."
Madam Ouyang said, "My little girl is spoiled. She is not as good as the princess from the princess's family or the girls from Sister Luo's family."
Madam Hu continued, "All the girls in your family are good. The princess' daughter is smart and beautiful. Sister Ouyang's daughter, Huan, is lovely and sensible. Sister Jinyin's daughter, Li, is a concubine of the Central Palace. My second sister was crowned a princess. This Miss Yun is proficient in music, chess, calligraphy, and painting, and she also plays the qin very well."
Princess Anguo smiled and said to Madam Huaping, "Huaping, I have met your eldest and second daughters, but I haven't met your daughter Yun yet. I've heard that your daughter Yun is the most beautiful and talented woman in Tokyo, and is proficient in music. When can I meet her?"
Madam Huaping bowed and said calmly, "Grand Princess, you are too kind. Yun'er is here today, but I don't know where she went to have fun. Grand Princess, please wait a moment. I will send someone to call her."
After saying this, Madam Huaping ordered her servants to look for Lu Tianyun, but was stopped by Grand Princess Anguo. She said, "Forget it, forget it. Children love to play. Let's not disturb them. Let them have their fun. If you want to see her again, there will be plenty of time."
Mrs. Huaping just gave up.
After the first half of the game, both teams can rest for 25 minutes before the second half begins.
Ye Zelin got off the horse, and Side hurried over to hand him a sweat towel. Ye Zelin took the towel and wiped his sweat.
After Ye Zelin wiped the sweat off his face, Side took the towel and led the horse aside.
Ruhuan and Zhao Yinong went over, and Ye Zelin bowed, "Princess."
Zhao Yinong disliked his many rules and pretended to be unhappy. Seeing that he hadn't stood up for a long time, she said "Stand up", and Ye Zelin finally stood up straight. Ruhuan looked into Ye Zelin's arms and said, "Brother, give that white jade phoenix hairpin to the princess."
Zhao Yinong covered her face with a round fan and looked at Ye Zelin, waiting for his response. Unexpectedly, Ye Zelin said, "Princess, please forgive me. I will find a better one and give it to you later."
Zhao Yinong was slightly embarrassed. Ruhuan's face darkened, and the next moment she said in a sweet voice, "Brother, why don't you give me the phoenix-head hairpin?"
Ye Zelin suddenly said, "I want to give it to my mother."
"Brother." Ruhuan looked at Ye Zelin dissatisfiedly.
