Unlike the bustling camp of the Imperial Guards, the Imperial Guards' Martial Competition Registration Office is deserted. Yuan Pengfei stood beside him and watched for a long time. Almost no noble children came to participate. Only a small number of civilian children signed up.

He reported the name and asked more questions. The minor official in charge of the registration did not dare to offend him, so he gave him a very respectful answer: until he registered, the only ones with higher status were the Catholic Wei Junshi and the Prince of Kang Lunis.

From this point of view, those strong competitors did not sign up. If nothing unexpected happens, the other imperial guards would accompany the prince to study, and the competition was done for these two people.

"Brother Yuan, Junshi Duwei wants to play polo with Prince Kang. Just go and have a look at it?" Li Feiying ran over and asked excitedly.

The invention of polo began in the Han Dynasty and was already very common during the Tang Dynasty. This is a very confrontational competitive sport and is very popular among the aristocratic class.

The Liyuan Polo Stadium has just been built shortly after it is rectangular in shape, with a circumference of one thousand steps, and is surrounded by low walls on all sides.

A row of high platforms was built on the north side as the audience seats, and a pavilion was built in the best viewing position, so Princess Mingyue stood there to watch the game.

At this time, neither the band played the Kucha music or the fierce competition below, she did not attract her attention.

She didn't care too much about this Prince Kang, but just treated it as a passerby. But she didn't expect that by chance, they both led a marriage line.

Her father completely disagreed with this marriage, and he only had her, a daughter. If he married far away from the Western Regions, it basically means goodbye.

But it is impossible to make a plea without paying a price. How can His Majesty change his words just by saying something?

The price of changing the ending was beyond his father's ending.

The emperor is still here, but because of his weakness and illness, his authority has been taken in part by His Majesty the Queen.

There is no two days, and there is no two kings in the country.

The highest power cannot be shared. His Majesty the Emperor and His Majesty the Queen have their own games, and these ministers below are forced to stand in line.

Either they stand on the side of the queen or on the side of the emperor. Of course, there are also people in the middle, but sooner or later they will have to stand on the side. It will be a good end to become a single group of people.

His father was an old minister who followed Taizong. He has always been a hardcore Li family, and his influence is still somewhat. His Majesty the Queen wanted to take this opportunity to beat him and force him to change teams.

Princess Mingyue knew in her heart that taking a team is a very important thing. If she ended up standing in the wrong team, it would be not just that she married far away from the Western Regions. Maybe the whole family would be ruined if she did.

Just last year, Emperor Taizong's brother-in-law Changsun Wuji was falsely accused of rebellion by Xu Jingzong and exiled to Qianzhou, and was forced to hang himself.

You know, that is also the uncle, prime minister, Duke Zhao, who is now the emperor, can be said to be inferior to tens of thousands of people, how could he rebel?

Obviously, this is the consequence of the failure of the power struggle. She also heard her father say privately that Xu Jingzhong is the Queen's Majesty's man, and it was her instructed to falsely accusation.

Because in the sixth year of Yonghui, the emperor wanted to make Wu Zhaoyi the queen, but Changsun Wuji and a group of ministers almost got rid of the Taiwan dynasty.

Although Wu Zhaoyi has a broad mind, she is very slim. Since then, the two of them have been defeated.

Of course, this matter is also inevitable with His Majesty the Emperor's apology. Changsun Wuji's authority was too great, and it threatened the emperor's rule. If he was not smart enough to retire and return home, he deserved to be killed by this couple.

This time, Her Majesty's power was used on her.

She knew that if her father voted for His Majesty the Queen, then Prince Kang would never get the first place, and she would not have to marry far away from the Western Regions.

And if her father didn't do that, everyone who participated in the imperial guards would let the water go, and she and Chang'an City would be farewell forever.

At this moment, her heart was melancholy.

Rationally speaking, my father could not change his mind just because of her. But she still had a little hope in her heart, hoping that his father could change his mind for her and keep her.

She didn't want to leave the prosperous Chang'an City, go to the wilderness of the Western Regions, and marry a barbarian.

But this hope is difficult to achieve.

"ah!"

The maid next to her let out a scream, awakening Princess Mingyue. She pointed to the man who fell off the horse on the field, "Princess, look, Prince Kang is offended."

Princess Mingyue was still very calm. Why didn’t she die if she fell off the horse? It also saved her from being upset.

Lunis, who was lying on the ground, covered his arms, was not concerned about the pain in his body. His eyes were on Princess Mingyue's face, and he felt a little disappointed: "Why is this woman so difficult to chase? Is it a woman with a heart of iron?"

Junshi's admiration for Princess Mingyue has been hidden in his heart for several years. So he is particularly hostile to this competitor who suddenly popped up.

I just deliberately played a trick, grabbed the barbarian ball, and let him drop it on the horse by the way, so that he could make a fool of himself in front of the princess. Now it seems that the effect is pretty good.

Sweeping over the princess' expression, he said to Lunis: "Prince Kang, you can't even play polo well. Just forget about the imperial guards' competition! You know, there are many talents in the imperial guards, and there are countless people who are better than me. If you are accidentally beaten to death, that's so unfair."

Lunis did not let his subordinates support him, and stood up with his arms in his arms. "Guardian Junshi, for Princess Mingyue, I will never give up no matter how many difficulties and obstacles there are. I must win the first place in the imperial guards competition."

After saying that, he took a last look at Princess Mingyue and left with his servants.

Back in the locker room, he followed him from Chang'an and advised him: "Your Highness, why not give up, the Tang Dynasty will not let us marry Princess Mingyue away.

The Imperial Guard is the most elite army in the Tang Dynasty. The competition is based on actual combat simulations, which is extremely dangerous. If you don’t do it well, you will lose your life there. The prince’s body of a thousand golds is not worth it!”

Lunis glanced at him and endured the pain and said, "I must marry Princess Mingyue. Before the competition begins, you should speed up the recruitment of warriors. As long as it can help me gain a little advantage, you will do whatever it takes."

The entourage could only agree, but was a little disappointed. Although the princess of the Tang Dynasty was very beautiful, he was the most beautiful woman he had ever seen, as a prince, he should not have lost his mind for beauty.

Even if such a person becomes a king, he will not be a good king, and his future will be limited.

Just a dignified prince, is it as superficial as he thought?
