Big Moon Ballad

Chapter 404 For
Dust was flying all over the sky.

In this huge cloud of dust, not everyone saw this thrilling scene.

People who saw it exclaimed, and those who didn't saw it talked and laughed happily.

Just as dust rose from the field, the stands outside the racecourse also became restless.

On the stand outside the racecourse, between the high platform where the examiner sits and the lowest pergola are boxes for dignitaries, some of which are luxuriously furnished and yet elegant, and are private rooms for the ladies of the aristocratic family named A.

The innermost room is the most luxuriously furnished. There are only six women sitting in the huge room, and four of them look a little nervous and forced to smile. Every time they say a word, they carefully look at the two women sitting at the top.

Because of these two women, one is surnamed Li and the other is surnamed Ye.

Each noble lady holds a delicately crafted bamboo tube, which contains a thousand-mile telescope made of crystal crystals that claims to be able to see farther than practitioners.

Through the bamboo tube, the noble ladies sitting at the best angle are looking at the court with one eye while chatting with each other.

One of the two noble ladies sitting at the top was looking at the stadium through the skyline with great interest, while the other seemed to have no interest in polo or chatting, and just sat there with an indifferent expression. The other women who wanted to get close Peeking at her but not knowing what to do.

I had to turn my attention to another woman who was staring at the court on the other side.

The court was brutal and dusty, and this time there was no beautiful boy like Ji Jiashu on the court. In fact, most of the ladies didn't dare to look at the court, but the woman sitting at the top was the only one who stared at the court. , The corner of the mouth has been evoking a smile.

"Miss Ye...you seem to be in a good mood today," the woman was the focus of the crowd, seeing her smile, other girls asked one after another.

"Really?" Ye Jingshu, who was sitting in the box, slightly clenched the bamboo tube in her hand, and looked at a woman sitting at the bottom, "I've always been in a good mood."

She shook the round fan with the other hand, glanced sideways at another woman sitting next to her with a cold expression, bit her lip and giggled, "Compared to someone, I usually live a very happy life."

The woman who looked like a statue sitting on the side raised her head slightly when she heard the words, and glanced at the proud daughter of the Ye family beside her, but she didn't say a word in the end.

But the girls around who provoked the conversation showed uneasiness, "Second Miss Li..."

"Speaking of which, it's been a long time since I saw the two appearing together," the atmosphere in the box became awkward, some women smoothed things over, and the rest echoed.It is true to say that it is a round field.

The woman who said the wrong thing just covered her mouth slightly, and looked at the two women sitting side by side, but it was easy to see that they were incompatible.

The relationship between these two people is not good, but they have to sit together, because although everyone present is the daughter of a family with the surname Jia, only these two people have a special status.

Southern Chu Danyang Ye Shi, the sister of the Queen of Southern Chu and the daughter of the Grand Sikong of Southern Chu, Ye Jingshu.

The Li family of Nanchu Qinghe, the daughter of Mr. Mengyang Li Mengyang, the chief examiner of this year's primary ceremony, is Li Jinniang.

It stands to reason that these two people are of similar status, and their family relationship is not bad. Even if they can't be handkerchiefs, the face-saving sisterhood should be able to maintain, but since they were young, Li Jinniang and Ye Jingshu have not dealt with each other.

Whenever there is a tea party, if you can invite Li Jinniang, you will definitely not be able to invite Ye Jingshu, and no matter what party, if Ye Jingshu is there, Li Jinniang will not come.

Li Jinniang is cold and arrogant, and is more difficult to please than Ye Jingshu. The noble girls usually think that Li Jinniang doesn't know how to behave when they mention this, but they don't have the guts to say it in front of Li Jinniang.

Although the second daughter of the Li family was very famous for not being favored in the family, any noble lady with some common sense would know that Li Jinniang, as the only remaining daughter of the Li family, would definitely be used in marriage in the end.That is to say, whether Li Jinniang is willing or not, the status of her future husband's family will be extremely high.

It was rare to see these two people appearing at the same time today. The other women thought it was the two who finally wanted to make friends, but they didn't expect that it was not the case.

But that being the case, why didn't the two of them get up and leave at this time?

Looking at Ye Jingshu who was staring at the racecourse closely, the women couldn't understand.

After all, in this polo match, Ye Jingshu's elder brother Ye Siyuan played.

"Master Ye is playing for the first time this year, and he will definitely be invincible!" Seeing the black ball being thrown high on the racetrack in the distance, the other noble ladies in the private room complimented each other.

The smile on the corner of Ye Jingshu's mouth deepened, in stark contrast to the expressionless woman beside her.

Ye Jingshu was looking at her brother, but what was Li Jinniang looking at?
"Second Miss Li..."

"Does the Li family have any descendants participating in the polo match this year?"

"I heard there is a distant relative?"

"Distant relative? That Jinniang came here to see that person? No matter how you say it, it's impossible."

Looking at the thin girl sitting on the top without saying a word, the others were puzzled, but at this moment, a shock erupted from the pergola below.

"Catch up!"

"It's about to hit!"

"What happened?" the ladies in the box asked in astonishment.

Everyone saw two horses colliding with one horse on the polo field in the distance, but this was nothing. Collisions are common on the polo field. Ye Jingshu clenched the bamboo tube tightly, and a sweet smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

However, at this moment, a gust of wind blew beside her, and Li Jinniang, who was sitting beside her, suddenly stood up.

"Bastard! Those beasts!"

"Who are you scolding?" Ye Jingshu frowned and said, "You are so outspoken, do you still have the consciousness of being a noble daughter of an aristocratic family..."

However, before she finished speaking, she was overwhelmed by new exclamations.

"Someone!"

"I'm going to hit it! I'm going to die!"

"Ah! There's really someone!" At this moment, through the bamboo tube, the noble ladies in the box saw the horse that was surrounded and hit by two horses, and there was actually a person hanging on the side.

The women screamed, and Ji Jiashu stood up abruptly on the high platform, watching the steaming horse's head pass by the girl's shoulder.

At the next moment, the two fierce horses collided with each other, and there was a huge roar, followed by people's screams.

"Ah! My legs!"

"Broken leg! Blood!"

Hey?
whose leg?Who is speaking?Who is it?
Horses are incomparable to humans. The horse's target is too big and the speed is too fast. Ji Jiashu knows better than anyone else that it is almost impossible to avoid being outflanked by the other two horses at such a short distance.

But the next moment, the horse that was originally aimed at being hit disappeared, and the two outflanking horses collided in front of everyone's eyes.

Amidst the wailing of the two big men, the horse appeared again.

At that moment just now, Ji Jiashu suddenly understood a poem that his elder brother liked to read to him when he was young.

There are many witches in the famous capital, and young people come out of Jingluo.The sword is worth a thousand gold, and the quilt is beautiful and fresh.

Lian Pian hit Ju Yang, clever and quick.

The clouds disperse and return to the city, and come back in the morning.

In the daylight, a figure jumped out of the haze.

Ying Baoyue hugged the horse's neck and rushed out of the dust.

　"There are many witches in the famous capital, and young men are born in Jingluo. The sword is worth a thousand gold, and the quilt is beautiful and fresh. Even if you hit the soil, you will be clever and quick. The clouds will disperse and return to the city, and you will come back in the morning."--Cao Zhi's "Famous Capitals" in the Han Dynasty
