Nanyue scored first, which made the vast majority of Nanyue citizens present very happy and cheering, after all, it’s their ho ground.
The Emperor of Nanyue was even more triumphant, stroking his beard and praising, "These lads really haven’t neglected their equestrian training."
"Congratulations, Your Majesty! Our Nanyue is rich with talents and will surely add to our greatness," said an official sitting next to the Emperor of Nanyue with a smile.
The Emperor of Nanyue grew even more proud and glanced at Yan Er, who was sitting not far away, saying, "Young Master Yan, what do you make of this? We, Nanyue, have scored first!"
Yan Er stood up and said, "Your Majesty, after all, we are guests. We must give our hosts so face, can’t press too hard. Consider this point as our greeting gift to Your Majesty. Besides, the ga isn’t over yet. As for this County Magistrate Ruifu, we, Prince Jin, are sure to marry her!"
The Emperor of Nanyue choked, and an official snorted, "Such arrogance."
Yan Er shrugged, "Whether it’s arrogance or not, let’s talk with facts. As they say, the ga isn’t over until it’s over. What do you say, Old Mr. ng?"
Old Mr. ng glanced at him, stroked his white beard, and said, "If you want to marry my disciple, show your real strength and skills." In his heart, he was secretly worried, wondering if this Buddy Jhin could do it. If he really lost, Wufu might end up pulling out all his beard.
Then again, he thought, if they lose, so be it. Saying big words in front of so many people and not delivering, what skills are there in that?
While they were discussing the ga here, Wufu was also a bit nervous over there.
A princess nad Princess Yongqing glanced at Wufu sideways and asked, "County Magistrate Ruifu, are you hoping Beiyan wins, or that they can’t win?"
If she said she hoped Beiyan wins, it would an she didn’t consider herself a Nanyue person, reaching too high. If she said she didn’t hope so, did it an she wasn’t satisfied with this marriage proposal?
Wufu smiled, "Princess, it’s not about what I hope. If he wants to marry , he must show how sincere he is!"
A beautiful counter, lightly raising her own worth.
Princess Yongqing pouted and shifted her gaze back to the field.
Beiyan didn’t rush when they lost a point, but beca more vigorous, constantly adjusting speed and strategy, defending tightly.
Suddenly, Prince Qi’s ball stick broke, forcing him to return to the field to change it. A young officer as Beiyan’s forward nad Zheng Yunchuan imdiately seized the opportunity, dribbling the ball towards Nanyue’s goal. According to the rules, even if the stick is changed, the ga continues.
The two bodyguards as center-backs were blocking that Song Qingzhang. The mont suitable for striking the ball was just a blink, as Zheng Yunchuan dribbled the ball, almost sticking his body under the horse’s belly, and struck hard.
Right into the goal.
A trace of a smile appeared in Wufu’s eyes, as her tense mind relaxed a bit.
As Beiyan caught up with a point, the previously very proud Nanyue began to feel a bit edgy. Except for that Song Qingzhang who remained calm, the other team mbers seed impatient.
With this impatience, their formation was disrupted, and Beiyan caught up with another point.
The face of the Emperor of Nanyue sitting in the audience looked sowhat unpleasant. He wanted to say sothing, but said nothing, just leaning slantingly on the Dragon Throne.
Not looking good, it would look even worse if they lost, indeed only practicing Taoism is good!
In the arena, the cheering for Nanyue rose and fell like thunder, while the Beiyan envoy, naturally unwilling to be outdone, also cheered for their side. Unfortunately, they were ultimately outnumbered and quickly drowned out.
Wufu sighed quietly. After all, they were on soone else’s turf, and no matter how they cheered, they couldn’t match the others. Under such cheering, if Beiyan’s ntality was unstable, they would surely ss up.
