Chapter 245: How can we know the outcome before the end?
Compared to the spectators on the stage who were eating their own melons, Sheng Minglan on the field had an expression of disbelief.
"How is it possible, Uncle Gu..., why is it you?"
Sheng Minglan's voice trembled unconsciously. She never imagined that her final opponent would be Gu Tingye.
Gu Tingyelan laughed and raised the crescent cue in his hand.
"Sixth girl, this is just a matter of loyalty to others as entrusted by others."
"No...Second Uncle, how could you..."
Minglan obviously still can't accept this fact.
Seeing this, Yu Yanhong had a scheming look on her face and raised her head and shouted: "What's not allowed? The rules of the game don't say that temporary substitutions are not allowed. If you want to make substitutions now, you can, we can wait!"
After saying that, she and her teammates laughed together.
Gu Tingye paused for a moment, then opened his mouth and smiled.
Sheng Minglan gritted her teeth.
She understood that she had underestimated Yu Yanhong, which finally bore bitter fruit at this time.
From the beginning, she fell into a wrong and inertial thinking.
In addition to the Yu brothers and sisters, Yu Yanhong's team also included Zhu Ji and Wu Nayan, so Minglan thought that the opponent's lineup was like this, but she didn't expect...
"Sixth girl from the Sheng family, let me give you a piece of advice. With Gu Erlang here, it won't be a loss of dignity for you to admit defeat now.
Who among the people in Shenjing doesn’t know that Gu Erlang has unparalleled skills and is proficient in pot throwing, polo, and fighting games?
Don't lose face because of your stubbornness and bring trouble to Xie Yuanlang who went to Rongguo Mansion!"
Yu Yanhong's words were as sharp as a blade, piercing straight into Minglan's heart, as if Han Jiutian had been poured a ladle of cold water on her face, making her face turn pale.
Tread!
Jialan pulled the reins and walked a few steps. Her body, which was not very broad, stopped in front of Minglan, but it gave her the weight of a mountain.
"Girl, I have something to say, please listen to it."
Yu Yanhong looked at Jia Lan with a hint of doubt in her eyes, and made eye contact with Zhu Ji and Yu Chengsi.
Is this guy just a bookworm who doesn’t know Gu Erlang’s great reputation?
Gu Tingye seemed to be looking forward to it. He smiled slightly and extended his hand to Jia Lan to say "please".
"Xie Yuanlang, please speak."
Jia Lan nodded towards Gu Tingye, looked straight at Yu Yanhong, and said every word.
"How can we know the outcome before we reach the end?"
When he said this, Jia Lan looked calm and his tone was extremely calm.
But what he said had a sense of seeing everything through.
"Well said!" Gu Tingye thought about it several times in his mind, and looked at Jia Lan with admiration: "As expected of Jie Yuanlang, although these words are small, they can be said to be big!"
Minglan came back from the shock, and felt more and more that Jialan's slender back looked like a mountain in her eyes.
She quickly gathered her emotions, rolled her eyes, and came up with a plan. She said to Gu Tingye: "Uncle Gu, your polo skills are unparalleled in the capital. Among us, every one of us is younger than you."
, even if you win, you won without force."
"Strength comes first in court games, so what's the point of winning without using force?" Yu Yanhong woke up from the shock and asked loudly.
On the tower.
"What's going on with those two teams? They keep talking and don't start?"
"Second brother, please be patient. We are both descendants of officials in Shenjing. We must know each other."
"What the prince brother is saying is, second brother, why don't you just lie down and watch?"
The three princes sitting next to Emperor Chunzhi were talking.
A burst of laughter suddenly broke in.
"I'm afraid these two groups of people don't know each other very well, except..."
The three princes looked sideways at the same time, and the prince smiled warmly and said: "Except for what? Does Prince Zhongyi know?"
Xiao Tianfang, the king of Zhongyi County, smiled and said: "On one side are the three people from Jia Lan of Rongguo Mansion and the sixth girl of Shuntian Governor Sheng Ren. On the other side are the granddaughters of Yuge's hometown and the grandsons of the chief minister.
Er and Gu Er of Ningyuan Hou Mansion.
The people on both sides have almost no contact with each other, except that Gu Er had been studying in a private school of the Shanda family and might have gotten acquainted with the sixth girl from the Sheng family."
"Rongguo Mansion..." the second prince Xiao Liang said, "I heard that the polo team of Rongguo Mansion was the best in Shenjing back then, but it's a pity that I can't see its true appearance."
Xiao Tianfang chuckled: "As the saying goes, the second prince can win the championship if you go out in person."
"That's right." The prince smiled and nodded, "Second brother will definitely win if he ends up playing."
"Hey..." Xiao Liang lowered his head in embarrassment.
"I didn't expect Prince Zhongyi to know all the families in the capital so well." Xiao Shi, the third prince who had not spoken for a long time, said coldly.
Xiao Tianfang was slightly startled when he heard this, then laughed loudly and raised his hand to cover his mouth: "The third prince is right to remind you. Privately inquiring about the affairs of the officials in the capital is indeed an overstep, but..."
This king is not as diligent and studious as the third prince. I am just a country man who wanders around the streets all day long, listening to the gossip spread among the people.
I don’t understand military and state affairs, so I can’t wait until the Supreme Emperor summons me to see him without being able to talk about anything, right? Isn’t this very sorry for his old man?”
Xiao Tianfang brought up the brand of Supreme Emperor so frankly that Xiao Shi was a little off guard and was speechless for a moment.
On the contrary, Xiao Liang nodded repeatedly.
He is also a straightforward person, and he likes Xiao Tianfang’s temperament best.
Don't think that being in a high position means you are extremely noble, but who doesn't have a heart for gossip?
Even the most noble one has set up various institutions to inquire about the people's sentiments.
Upon seeing this, Prince Xiao Xu immediately came to smooth things over: "As the saying goes, it is better to defend the people than to defend the river. He can just say what the people say about freedom, and there is no harm in listening.
The loyal and righteous King Yunwen Yunwu, in terms of seniority, I still have to call you brother, how can you be a man from the mountains? You will be the pillar of the imperial court and the pillar of the country, so why should you belittle yourself?"
Xiao Tianfang narrowed his eyes and glanced at the prince, restrained his expression, cupped his hands and thanked: "The prince is benevolent."
On the other side, Emperor Chunzhi also heard what happened from Dai Quan.
Wu Shenyan, the uncle who was accompanying the driver, was filled with shame after hearing this. He felt that his younger brother was so embarrassed that he was so embarrassed. A man in his twenties actually had to change his face when dealing with three children who were over ten years old.
If someone comes on stage, it’s better to replace Gu Er.
"Your Majesty, I will definitely punish this evildoer severely when I return! It's so shameful to have to replace someone when you retreat from the battle!"
Emperor Chunzhi chuckled, glanced at the queen beside him, turned around and said: "Uncle, don't worry too much, it's just children playing. Besides, striving for victory, there is nothing wrong with using some means within the rules."

Queen Wu on the side looked slightly moved.
There was a burst of laughter from the side: "What the Holy One said is that it's good for the juniors to have fun. I haven't seen such a grand polo match for a long time."
Emperor Chunzhi raised the corner of his mouth, stroking his beard and looked at the speaker: "Uncle Wang Ping, don't worry, I plan to hold a polo match like this every year in order to enjoy it with the people."
"Okay, then I must take good care of myself and watch it a few more times until I have seen enough.
