When the painting hall gets up in the morning, I come to report the snowflakes. I look at the beautiful scenery with high roller blinds, and the bright colors are far away and the courtyard is covered with a blur.

The qi is filled with light and smoke is drawn in the furnace, and the plain grass is cold and the jade pendant is born. It is the celestial immortal who is drunk and crushing the white clouds.

——"Qingpingle·Beginning in Painting Hall" Li Bai

...

After a day of fierce battle, 16 teams were eliminated twelve teams, and the remaining four teams were: Prince Li Chu of Guangping, Prince Li Qing of Jianning, Prince Li Mao of Shou, Li Zi of Deyang County, and Li Qiu.

On the night of the game, the north wind whistled, and the sky was filled with heavy snow, like flowers and goose feathers. It was whizzing all night. As the saying goes, "I know the snow is heavy late at night, and I hear the sound of breaking bamboos."

Early the next morning, the snow stopped and the wind stopped, and the entire Chang'an City was like an ice and snow palace.

In order to prepare for today's game, Jingzhao Mansion dispatched hundreds of servants. As soon as the snow stopped, it started to shovel the snow, and even put on warm lights, it was not allowed to start the game in the snow. Even so, in the heavy snowy weather, no one dared to let the horses run with all their might. The teams obviously made frequent mistakes in passing and ball control and other technical details, and the number of goals was greatly reduced.

The first game was Li Qiu's team against Deyang County Prince Li Yan's team.

The two teams were in a stalemate at the beginning of the game: First, Li Yan's team attacked the front point by Li Jing and Li Bei worked together to resolve it. Immediately afterwards, Li Jiyang's Prince Li Ji and Guangyang's Prince Li Wei joined forces to organize a siege on the spot, but it was fruitless.

The Li Qi team immediately organized a counterattack, but until the gong sounded in the first half, he did not get the chance to shoot the goal with a stick.

King Qing Li Cong was quite dissatisfied with his sons' condition, so he simply ran down the stands and went to the side of the court to command. In this game, in order to get Li Bei to start, he moved Yuan Tike, the number one polo master in Chang'an, to the right side, and asked Li Jing to retreat to defend.

Li Bei had several iconic dribbling diagonally, but the snow was slippery and the horses did not dare to gallop, and they stopped every time they arrived.

Li Yan's team was in the defense, with neat formations. If Li Bei could use his specialties to find a breakthrough vertically, the game would be easier. However, the Li Qiu team could only rely on the external long shot and the pulling of the "Eight-Armed Ape" Yuan Tike to create murderous intent.

The best scoring opportunity for Li Qiu's team in the first half was a angrily shot from Yuan Tike of the "Eight-Armed Ape". The ball was so fast that it was too strong, but the angle was too straight, and it was barely intercepted by Duke Xue Li Kang.

At the beginning of the second half, each company changed its players.

King Shou Li Mao finally used his trump card - the main force of Fan Yang Army. An Lushan's night visit that day was about this. An Lushan clearly stated that Fan Yang Army was willing to support the team of Deyang County Prince Li Yan.

Fan Yang's army was An Shouzhong, Sun Xiaozhe, and Ashina Chengqing were young and vigorous, and extremely brave. Cai Xide was well-known on the battlefield for a long time and was highly respected. Cui Qianyou and Li Guiren were skilled in the horse and horse, brave and good at fighting. Gao Miao, who had a thousand years of wisdom and courage, had a sharp sense of smell in front of the door. Tian Chengsi, Zhang Zhongzhi, and Li Huaixian were able to attack and defend. Fan Yang's army was very skilled and brave, and they both succeeded frequently.

When Prince Shou Li Mao thanked An Lushan for giving him a lot of gratitude to him, An Lushan said when he was leaving: "Prince, you don't need to thank me. I came here this time because I was entrusted by someone to be loyal to others. I also asked the prince to think about the feelings of the entrusted person, so that he would not fall into drowning and cheer up his spirits, so that he could do it himself."

This sentence is thought-provoking and made Li Mao wander in front of the mansion for a long time. Li Mao finally made up his mind and went all out.

King Shou Li Mao personally led Ashina Chengqing and Cui Qianyou to appear.

Today, this is the first prince and grandson to play. Although Shouwang Li Mao's face was pale and thin, he had extraordinary appearance. Especially against the backdrop of the polo hunting suit, he looked even more handsome and elegant. As soon as he appeared, he caused countless beauties to cheer and scream.

Li Longji looked at Yang Guifei intriguingly. The concubine looked as usual, with a plain hand, peeled a grape, smiled slightly, and put it into Xuanzong's mouth.

Xuanzong said in his heart: "It's been so long since time has passed, why should I bother myself?" and let go with a smile.

The generals in the field drove their ways and attacked and defended back and forth. Yang Yuhuan was distracted and crushed the white clouds indiscriminately. He recalled Wang Mojie's "Madam Xi": "Don't be favored by the present day, rather forget the grace of the past. Seeing the flowers full of tears, it is not the same as the King of Chu's words."

...

After the opening of the second half, Li Qiu missed the chance to win twice: the first round of drums sounded, and Yuan Tike made a cross from the left, Li Qiu scored a goal by scoring the ball, but hit Ju ball on the net beside the goal.

The third round of drums sounded, Li Yan passed the ball with fifty steps, and the ball was lodged onto the right side of the frontcourt. Li Qi took the lead with a stick, unloaded the ball and pushed it to the front of the goal. Yuan Tike grabbed the final shot, but unfortunately Li Qi violated the rules and the goal was judged invalid.

Conversely, after Fan Yangjun came on the field, the situation changed immediately.

Li Jing knocked the ball to Li Bei, and Ashina Chengqing rode his horse to block it. Li Bei did not dare to confront him head-on. With a spoil, he passed the ball from the air to Yuan Tike of the "Eight-Armed Ape".

Ashin Chengqing raised his feet with stirrups, leaned over to explore his staff, easily intercepted the polo in the air, and then passed the ball to Cui Qianyou who was supporting him.

In addition to this riding technique, it won applause.

The left-handed Yi Gao saw this and wrote a poem on the spot to cheer up: "A young man in Yingzhou was tired of the fields, fox furs were covered with glutinous glutinousts and hunted under the city. The enemy's wine was not drunk for a thousand bells, and Hu'er could ride a horse at the age of ten."

...

With the support of Ashina Chengqing and Cui Qianyou, King Shou Li Mao entered the frontcourt. Facing the opponent's blockade, he still dared to make moves and frequently made exquisite short passes to cooperate, which was dazzling and dazzling.

When the fourth drum sounded, King Shou Li Mao had already taken three cities in a row.

If it weren't for the 'Eight-Armed Ape' Yuan Tike', the team Li Qi would have probably overturned the snow.

...

King Qing Li Cong rarely lost his patience to replace Li Bei and the "Eight-Armed Ape" Yuan Tike. It is not difficult to see the expression of confusion and disappointment on Yuan Tike's face.

Yuan Tike was replaced, which caused a clamor for the audience in the field. Fanatic fans who watched football all year round in Chang'an were even more puzzled. You should know that Yuan Tike is a football man who is well-known in the capital. Is there anyone who is better than this person on King Qing's bench list?

Just as everyone was puzzled, two black horses leaped into the sky with four hooves and rushed into the field, with golden saddles and silver, and agile and handsome mane.

Horse knight, Western Region tattoos, curly beard, thick hair, typical Hu people with strong sturdy warriors.

The other rider was actually a Persian woman. Her beautiful cheeks were covered with black veils, and under her ice and snowy skin, she had a pair of sapphire-like pupils, like smoke and mist.

There are many foreign beauties in Chang'an City. In the Western Regions, Kucha people, great cannibals, and Sogdians all have many beauties settled in Chang'an and do business. However, this is the first time that people who are so charming and charming, and who are obviously luxurious and prominent. Many neutral audiences in the venue immediately changed their direction to cheer for Li Qiu's team. Even many gamblers who bet on Li Mao before the game were infected and turned to support Li Qiu's team.

The appearance of this Persian beauty made Xuanzong feel inexplicably excited, and he threw the suspicion of Li Mao, the King of Birth.
