Chapter 31: Flowers make each spring colorful

After the wine was given, the emperor ordered the princes to return to the feast and continued to have a feast with Tubo Zanpu. The teaching dance workshop presented a new rehearsal of Hu Ge Drumming.
After a short while, when the singing and dancing were over, the sound of drums all around suddenly revived. Everyone stopped and looked around, and saw a few red silks suddenly hoist a bronze mirror-sized carved golden ball in the field. At the same time, a red hyena brocade mane horse galloped from the field, and immediately there was a woman riding. In the gallop, bend the bow and shoot the arrow, the arrow goes like the wind, and it hits the golden ball.
The golden ball was split by an arrow and turned into two strings of golden flowers that fell in the wind. The woman was still bowing behind her, and she took off the reins and stood on the horseback. She stretched out her hands and accurately copied the flowers that fell in the air.
Amidst the applause, she saw her horse speed slowly before reaching the main stage, turning over lightly, dismounting her horse and holding up a bunch of golden flowers, and sending them to Chi Lang Lunzan. She laughed softly: "I heard that Tubo has Yihata. Respecting the customs of distinguished guests, our heavenly court also uses wreaths to welcome Zan Pudong to the Central Plains!"
Chi Lang Lunzan smiled and received a gift from her. She turned around and presented a wreath to Princess Jingsheng: "Welcome the princess back to the court!"
Concubine Yin accompanied by the Emperor of Heaven, smiled at this time: "It turns out that it is Caiqian, she has so many weird tricks."
The Emperor also laughed and said, "Well, riding archery is very good."
Yin Caiqian said: "Your Majesty, our heavenly men are galloping and chic, and women are not inferior to others. Caiqian wants to use the court to perform flower shooting orders for Your Majesty and Zanpu to help the wine!"
This flower shooting game is a game often played by the children of the noble family in their leisure time. It combines archery, riding, kicking and verbal commands. It is also very interesting. The emperor said: "Just games are not good, I ordered you to try a game, what do you think?"
Yin Caiqian said: "That's a double team grabbing order, Caiqian will follow the order!"
The emperor asked: "Who do you want to invite to fight with you?"
Yin Caiqian thought for a while, raised her eyes and said: "You have to climb the mountain, and you need to find a master in the competition." She said that she took a few steps forward and bowed in front of Ye Tianling. "The four archery skills are among the best in the army. Caiqian courageously, please enlighten me from your Four Highnesses!"
Ye Tianling was slightly startled, and there was an uproar in the field, and there was a lot of discussion. No one thought that Yin Caiqian would dare to call Ling Wang.
Ye Tianling sat in the banquet, and after she finished speaking, she was quiet and did not answer. Yin Caiqian's apricot eyes were bright, and she looked up at him scorchingly, a little bit ashamed in the glorious depths. Ye Tianling's deep eyes looked at her faintly, and there was only a bottomless blackness.
Upon seeing this, the queen mother asked him: "Ling'er, people called you into battle, are you ready to respond?"
Ye Tianling heard the words, and Fang stood up and bowed gently to the Queen Mother, and said quietly: "Grandson obeys the emperor's grandmother's order." His eyes lifted, but he was falling on Qing Chen. Qing Chen also looked at him. The corners of his lips seemed to have a slight smile at the moment he met his gaze. They floated clear in the sun, and then disappeared between the eyebrows and eyes.
Luan Fei tapped her finger on the long case before her, and suddenly whispered to Qing Chen: "Sister, let's kill her in the end, and we can't make the Yin family too proud."
Qing Chen heard her say so, raised his eyebrows slightly, and asked, "Do you want to form a team with the Fourth Royal Highness?"
The Yin family and the Feng family tentatively compete with each other. It is no longer a matter of a day. Feng Luanfei has always been at odds with Yin Caiqian. Naturally, she will not be allowed to monopolize the scenery here. Now she has to take advantage of Ling Wang's strength to suppress her luster and nod. : "Yes, this is a good opportunity." Then he whispered to the queen mother, "the queen mother, can you not cooperate well with the shooting flower, can my sister and I go to help the fourth majesty?"
Qing Chen was rather helpless, but also secretly thought that Luan Fei was smart, and acted with the empress dowager's will. No one said anything. Besides, there is a master like Ye Tianling in the team, and it is almost a stable win. Sure enough, the queen mother allowed them. Ye Tianling had already got on the horse and entered the field at this time. He didn't seem to care about who he would partner with. He just nodded to them, waiting for Yin Caiqian to invite someone to the game.
On the viewing platform, Concubine Yin just looked at Ye Tianzhan. Ye Tianzhan smiled and stood up: "It's boring to have many boys and girls. Why don't I play two games with them with my fourth brother."
He smiled at Runya, and said it was reasonable, but in this way, everyone felt something different.
At this time, the Emperor of Heaven seemed to say casually: "Hao'er, you will end up with Zhan'er and the others. Ling'er has great archery skills. Don't let them be bullied."
As soon as these words were made, Concubine Yin's face changed slightly, and Feng Yan's expression moved. The prince was hurt, but the Emperor of Heaven still made arrangements like this, and he overwhelmed King Zhan, which was deeply intriguing.
The prince said: "The son of the minister abides by the order." So he got up and entered the arena in the worried eyes of the prince.
The expression on Concubine Yin's face was fleeting, and she immediately smiled: "Your Majesty, seeing them reminds people of their youth. At that time, we often played the game of shooting flowers."
The heavenly emperor looked calm and said: "I remember that you were a master at shooting orders."
Concubine Yin said: "Don't your concubines often lose to your majesty?" The Emperor of Heaven smiled without saying a word.
Qing Chen stroked Yuncheng's mane, watching the subtle changes in the situation from a distance, and making a good game so complicated, it was both boring and a little funny. She turned her head with a smile, and unexpectedly saw Ye Tianling's lips also sneer. He suddenly turned his head when her gaze fell. Both of them were stunned by each other's smiling expression, and then they raised their eyebrows slightly.
When Luan Fei saw that the other party had ordered someone, he said: "I guess they must be Yin Caiqian shooting the order. His Royal Highness robs the order, and His Royal Highness takes the order. How do we respond here?"
The game of shooting flower orders has always been three people per team. There are many hollow colored for hitting in the field. A gold medal is hung under each colored ball, and the cards have different flower orders. Outside the court, the commander gave the first sentence of the flower order, and the person who shot the order must shoot the corresponding colored ball according to this. The colored ball landed, and the second person immediately followed the order. The party who missed or missed the shot must be qualified to grab the order. When grabbing the order, use the long stick to pass the ball to the person receiving the order as quickly as possible. Quickness and skill are crucial. The most important thing for the person receiving the order to catch the ball is to have good skills on horseback, but if the end sentence is not connected after the order is received, the colored ball must be handed over. In this way, each link pays attention to cooperation and tacit understanding, and compares allusions to poems. In the end, based on the number of colored obtained, the more one wins.
Qing Chen had played the shooting order several times in the palace. After thinking about it, he thought about it: "The Four Highnesses have decided to shoot the order. The two of us need to take advantage of our strengths and avoid weaknesses. I am not very good at leaning over to catch things. You come to take the order, my horse is fast, and is familiar with the techniques of His Highness the Seventh, so I will grab the order."
Luan Fei smiled to her quietly: "The prince has a wound on his arm, and my sister is letting me. However, although His Royal Highness is very good at hitting the ball, he will surely make three points against my sister. We have a big chance of winning."
Qing Chen glared at her lightly, and suddenly felt a deep gaze falling beside her. When she looked at it, she saw the faint light in Ye Tianling's black eyes swept across instantly, and listened to him indifferently: "I will follow you later. Tighten my horse." After saying this, take the lead in entering the field.
The other party's arrangement was as expected by Luan Fei. Ye Tianzhan didn't seem surprised when he saw that his opponent was Qing Chen. He faintly sighed and smiled handsomely in the sun, with bright eyes like spring.
Everyone in Tubo has never seen a game of Shooting Flower Ling, everyone will wait and see. I saw the prepared colored started to spin by pulling the red silk. After the side drum tee, there was a golden bell and jade, and the commander chanted loudly: "Oath to swing the iron cavalry to break the thousand cities." The arrows flew at the same time, the colored fell in response, and the Yanyue long rod competed back and forth.
But seeing the green grass and flying flowers, the colors are colorful, when the horse is fast, the feathers are shot, the ball is flying to the moon, there is a light shirt like jade, and the frequent witty words are dazzling and dizzying.
Yin Caiqian dared to challenge Ye Tianling, her archery was truly extraordinary, brisk and accurate. Although she was first overwhelmed by Ye Tianling, she was always chasing after her. Qing Chen drove Yun Cheng and followed Ye Tianling closely. After three arrows, she felt that every shot Ye Tianling shot would definitely fall in front of her horse. The skill of control was amazing. .
As Hualing turned faster and faster, everyone in the field became anxious. Whenever there is a firing order, the wind and the clouds go hand in hand, like the wind and the clouds, the light flashes, and you can only see two white shadows swiftly galloping next to each other, stepping on the wind and rising into the clouds. Cheers.
Luan Fei is happily on the horse, circling around with the prince, each in purple clothes and yellow shirts is good at winning the field, bright and high-level. As soon as Qing Chen got the ball, she immediately stepped forward to respond, galloped over and leaned over, her skirt wagging, like a butterfly piercing through the flowers, and the fragrant wind flying across, she had already copied Hua Ling in her hand.
In this way, the other party lost two consecutive orders, and Qing Chen took another order. Suddenly, he felt that his men were tight, and the figures around him flickered. Ye Tianzhan smiled suavely before his eyes, and the ball stick had flashed to the ball.
Qing Chen knew that his technique of dribbling the ball was very good. Once the ball was under his stick, it would be impossible to recapture it. Unexpectedly, the two rods intersect, and Yetianzhan sticks like sticky force, Qing Chen can't hold it, and the ball stick almost wants to let go. Ye Tianzhan raised his hand to give it away, and handed the stick back to her at the moment when he was wrong.
Qing Chen was stunned. Seeing Ye Tianzhan's handsome eyes seemed to be filled with joyful spring light, she smiled and motioned her to continue. She had some strange feelings in her heart, and smiled at him, but she avoided the ball with her stick. hit.
"Wan Dianchun, Yizhixiu."
The two arrows whispered lightly, hitting Hualing almost at the same time, and the colored fell. Qing Chen and Ye Tianzhan couldn't tell the outcome. At the same time, they uttered the next sentence: "Thousands of years, Yan Shuangfei!" Luan Fei and the prince prancing horse leaped into the air, rushing to the front, it was the final win or loss.
Unexpectedly, the two arrows intersected at a high place, and Yin Caiqian was unable to beat the strength of Ye Tianling Arrow. The feather arrow that was supposed to fall off the field changed its direction and flew into the field. When it fell, the strength did not weaken, and it hit Luan Pegasus' head.
The horse was frightened and stumbled. Between the sparks and sparks, the Prince Ma speeded up suddenly, raised his hand and grabbed Luan Fei. Back around his arm, Luan Fei took advantage of the momentum to loosen the reins and landed in front of the Prince's horse like a swallow. When she looked down in shock, she was holding the flying flower order in her hand, and suddenly smiled, her beautiful eyes looked at the prince, and gave the flower order: "Your Royal Highness has won, Luan Fei admits defeat."
The prince took the Hualing order, seemed to be struggling when raising his hand, frowned slightly, but looked at Luan Fei with a smile on his head.
Yin Caiqian and everyone immediately glared at Luan Fei unhesitatingly, with hostility in her eyes. Luan Fei turned a blind eye, only smiled and thanked the prince.
In this way, the two sides ended in a tie. Although Chilang Lunzan is a foreigner, he is proficient in Chinese and has always admired the culture of the celestial dynasty. This flower made him an eye-opener, so he ordered his attendants to pour a few spirits and personally To the six people.
Chi Lang Lunzan respected him first, and the prince and Ye Tianling drank three mouthfuls of wine in return. Both Luan Fei and Yin Caiqian were somewhat drunk, and they drank the wine one after another.
Qing Chen knew that he could not drink after being drunk once. After receiving this big cup of strong alcohol, Qing Chen hesitated and took a sip. The liquor was like a knife, choking into the throat, like burning. She had been galloping for half a day, and she felt a little flustered, and the spirits seemed to add firewood to raise her salary, burning from her abdomen to the chest, and she couldn't help but frown.
However, according to Tubo customs, it was extremely rude to refuse the first drink. Seeing Chi Lang Lunzan was looking at her, she was so embarrassed that she could not retreat in front of the civil and military ministers of the two countries, so she prepared to drink the wine. Unexpectedly, someone next to her suddenly raised her hand, but Ye Tianling blocked her drink: "Zampo, Qingping County Lord is not good at drinking. According to my celestial courtesy, this wine can be drunk by someone else. how is it?"
Chi Lang Lunzan also saw that Qing Chen was reluctant, and said with a smile: "Going to the countryside, please, please!"
Qing Chen smiled gratefully at Ye Tianling, and Ye Tianling took the wine bottle in her hand and drew his head to the end. Chi Lang Lunzan shouted: "Good drink!" Tubo people make friends with alcohol, frank and bold. When he was only hitting the ball, he admired Ye Tianling very much, turned around to drink, and raised his hand: "I will respect the next one!"
Ye Tianling didn't change his face, nor did he refuse. He took the drink and gave a slight tribute to Chi Lang Lunzan, and then drank it. When the cup was lit, the surrounding Tubo warriors applauded and all admired.
Chi Lang Lunzan was very happy, and put his hand on his chest and said to the Emperor of Heaven: "Your Majesty, the wine is strong, the Tubo and the heaven are in the same brotherhood, and I wish to make good forever!"
The emperor Longyan rejoiced, led his group of officials to raise a cup, and drank with the guests of Tubo to wish the two countries a great event.
