Xiao Shengxing was also interested. After agreeing, he changed his clothes and rode his horse to Su Lijin.
As their eyes met, Su Lijin pursed her lips and chuckled at the man in front of her.
"Your Majesty, I have always heard that you are not in good health. Please do not force yourself to compete, otherwise, someone will accuse me of plotting to murder Your Majesty."
The speaker had ulterior motives, Su Lijin was clearly making a subtle criticism of the Queen Mother.
The Queen Mother looked at Su Lijin's position below and felt unhappy.
But he didn't say much, just clenched his fists slightly.
She is very sharp-tongued. When the time comes, I will find an opportunity to get rid of her and see if he has the ability to be so arrogant.
There's no need to be too hasty now.
Xiao Shengxing smiled and said, "Even though I'm weak, playing polo is just a form of entertainment. Or is it that you're scared? If you admit defeat now, I won't say anything."
"Admit defeat? Your Majesty, you are really underestimating me. Since I dare to challenge you, I don't think I can lose!"
Su Lijin and Xiao Shengxing stood side by side at the front. After the eunuchs checked everything, they struck the gong and the polo match officially began.
Su Lijin rode her horse directly and hit the ball in front of her forward. The woman in red looked heroic on the court. Her movements were not at all slow and she did not look weak at all.
For a moment, even Xiao Shengxing couldn't help but be attracted.
Su Lijin didn't pay much attention to it. Since she was already on the court, she must win the game!
Thinking of this, the look in Su Lijin's eyes became much firmer.
Her every move was so eye-catching that even Xiao Zhaolin's gaze was unconsciously fixed on Su Lijin.
He frowned slightly, with a hint of doubt in his eyes.
I never knew that Su Lijin was so amazing. Her confidence on the court made people want to get closer to her.
When he thought of a woman like this, who loved him the most, a look of pride appeared on Xiao Zhaolin's face.
Su Lijin rode her horse and shot the ball in front of her towards the opponent's goal. The shot was fast and powerful, and the women's team was hoping that this ball would go in.
Who knew that at this moment, Xiao Shengxing appeared from the side, jumped up on the horse's back, and directly blocked the ball.
Seeing this, Su Lijin couldn't help but frown slightly. She glanced at the man in front of her, turned around and left without saying anything.
"Jin'er, why are you so anxious?" Xiao Shengxiang chuckled and followed behind Su Lijin. Looking at the woman in front of him who was somewhat unconvinced, there was a hint of doting on his face.
"Let's take it slow."
As the two talked, they started fighting again.
At the same time, Li Jin from Xiao Shengxing's team also had a conflict with Ye Shuyin. The two of them fought back and forth, neither of them giving in. He even looked down on Ye Shuyin and spoke provocatively.
"How dare you come up here to play polo by yourself, and even dare to compete with me? I'm going to show you how powerful I am!"
As Li Jin spoke, he actually rushed directly towards Ye Shuyin. His movements did not look like he was playing polo at all, but rather like he was angry and ready to take this opportunity to settle a personal grudge.
Unfortunately, Ye Shuyin was not a weak woman. She looked at the man rushing towards her with a cold look on her face.
If you want to capture the enemy, you must be willing to sacrifice yourself in order to lure the enemy deeper into your territory.
Ye Shuyin deliberately exposed her weakness, and when Li Jin raised his foot to secretly kick Ye Shuyin's horse.
She suddenly reached out and grabbed Li Jin's leg, and then, under the man's astonished gaze, she exerted force with her hand and threw him to the ground.
Li Jin fell to the ground, and his wailing attracted the attention of others present. He covered his leg and pointed at Ye Shuyin and said to the eunuch who was serving as the referee.
"She broke the rules! She actually pulled me off! This is cheating!"
It's a pity that everyone's attention was on Su Lijin and Xiao Shengxing, and no one noticed the situation here.
The eunuch was also in a dilemma and looked at Xiao Shengxing and Su Lijin. Su Lijin said, "Since he's injured, go down and let the imperial physician take a look. It would be bad if we delay."
His words were meant to protect Ye Shuyin, and Xiao Shengxing was not going to pursue the matter. The eunuch understood and quickly arranged for others to help Li Jin go down to rest.
After Li Jin left, Xiao Shengxing's side was equivalent to being one man short, and the game had to be suspended.
Xiao Shengxing looked at the substitute team, thinking about finding a suitable person to replace Li Jin.
Xiao Zhaolin, who was sitting in the palace, suddenly stood up and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, why don't you let me do it? Your Majesty is so heroic, I can't help but want to give it a try!"
Xiao Shengxing's expression remained unchanged as he nodded slightly and agreed, "Okay, since the prince is willing, then you can come."
After changing his clothes, Xiao Zhaolin rode his horse to the arena.
"Empress, I will not show mercy." Xiao Zhaolin said to Su Lijin with a smile.
"That's better. I don't want to be given in." Su Lijin answered mercilessly, but she couldn't figure out what Xiao Zhaolin was going to do.
With that, the game started again.
Xiao Zhaolin knew that this was a good opportunity for him to show his skills, so he rushed forward to grab the ball immediately, and even used martial arts to pose various difficult polo postures, which caused many people to sigh.
He turned back confidently, thinking that Su Lijin would shift her gaze to him.
Who would have thought that Su Lijin was actually playing basketball very seriously, even ignoring her status and directly competing with Xiao Shengxing for the ball, and was not attracted to him at all.
Xiao Zhaolin was a little disappointed. He seemed to have thought of something and rode his horse directly towards Xiao Shengxing and Su Lijin.
At this moment, the two people are in a stalemate.
"Your Majesty, pass it to me and I will pass it on!" Xiao Zhaolin seized the opportunity and rode his horse to the front of Xiao Shengxing and spoke to him.
Now Su Lijin is chasing me very closely, so the best way is to pass the ball.
Xiao Shengxing hesitated for a moment, then passed the ball to Xiao Zhaolin.
Upon seeing this, Su Lijin quickly turned her horse around and chased after it. Unexpectedly, just as she was about to grab the ball, it rolled directly to her pole.
Xiao Zhaolin frowned upon seeing this, and subconsciously said in astonishment, "Not good!"
In fact, he did this on purpose in order to get Su Lijin's attention.
However, at this critical moment, Su Lijin was only looking at the ball in front of her.
She kicked the ball without thinking, and the ball went straight into the goal. After the gong was struck, everyone knew that Su Lijin had won the first goal!
