Speaking of playing polo, ordinary people will unconsciously think of pictures of European nobles riding horses and swinging clubs. In particular, many members of the royal family are also obsessed with equestrian polo, and their "" status is highly praised.

Extreme.

It is said that many British princes and princesses, Prince Sudan and many political figures are polo masters. No wonder it is known as the "jewel in the crown". This polo appeared in the Central Plains as early as the Han Dynasty and flourished in

It is a pity that the ancient sports of the Tang Dynasty have developed far behind Europe in modern China.

While waiting for the men to change their jerseys and equipment, Ye Yingning took the opportunity to admire the art reproductions in the small exhibition hall in the clubhouse, including "Tang Xuanzong's Batting Picture", "Song People's Batting Picture", and painted horse-playing pictures.

Pottery ball figurines, polo-playing portraits, rhombus mirrors, etc. Although they are just imitations, these lifelike pictures and vivid shapes are enough to shock people.

The waiting time was a bit long, but fortunately, the waiter at the club promptly brought coffee and desserts to Ye Yingning and the female companions accompanying the other men.

After a while, there was a sound of footsteps behind her. She looked back and saw that Zhou Yang, who had finished dressing up, was already walking over with a helmet in one hand and several other men.

A word suddenly popped up in Ye Yingning's mind, knight, as if he were a hero who came out of the heavy history of the Middle Ages!

Out of curiosity and surprise, she almost held her breath and looked at the man standing not far away from her——

Zhou Yang was dressed in an orange-red polo uniform and white breeches. The equipment was extremely eye-catching. The gloves, breeches, and leggings were all of the same color. The black-brown riding boots made his already slender and powerful legs even longer.

The brown leather belt is embellished with a unique twill horse racing pattern, and the color combination is bold and energetic. In a less conspicuous place, Ye Yingning saw the logo of a famous luxury brand and his name.

Abbreviation, zy two capital letters.

She had never seen him like this before, so she couldn't help but hold back her smile, stood up, and bowed her knees to perform a court ceremony.

"Should I kneel down and kiss the back of your hand?"

Zhou Yang blinked and made a gesture to kneel down on one leg as he spoke. Ye Yingning was afraid that he would actually do this, so she quickly held his hand and smiled and said no.

The two people's intimate gestures caused a burst of laughter from the surrounding people, who all joked that this couple was really in love.

Ye Yingning's cheeks were a little hot. He let go of his hand and recalled the poem he had just read. He blurted out and repeated: "Take off your crimson purple, wear brocade clothes, silver stirrups and golden saddles shine in the sun. The dust in the field is gone, and the flying horses are flying behind. The ball is in the air."

The staff flies forward. The ball is like a star, the staff is like the moon, and the horse suddenly flies straight to the cave with the wind."

As he was talking, on the other side, Qiao Yanne and the team members of the same team also changed their clothes and were properly equipped.

"Sister-in-law is really a great poet!"

The old man of the Qiao family specially named this little grandson "Yane", but unfortunately, he was the talkative one. His brother Qiao Sijie, on the other hand, was much more stable. He had always been a man of few words and seldom interacted with these dandy boys.

Hang out.

"Second Young Master Qiao is so complimentary. The verses carved on the wall are my master's tricks."

Ye Yingning smiled brightly and replied casually to Qiao Yanne. Although she didn't understand the rules of polo, she also knew that any sport was dangerous. She couldn't help but look at Zhou Yang's legs and whispered: "Pay attention to you."

Don’t show off your legs, it’s just for fun.”

He was just about to reassure her, but before he could speak, four or five people walked up not far away, all dressed in professional clothing. The leader was a man in black clothes and white trousers, holding a cowhide riding crop that also matched black and white in his hand.

"It's such a rare day. All the noble people that I would never meet in normal times are here!"

The man didn't deliberately raise his voice, but when he opened his mouth, the whole place fell silent.

Qiao Yanne was the first to react, stepped forward quickly, and said hello with a polite smile: "It turns out that I am a favored young master. It's rare. It's rare. It's too cold, so everyone comes here to stretch their muscles."

He had a smile on his face, but secretly regretted in his heart that if he had known that Chong Tiange was there, he would not have brought anyone over to seize the moment.

Although there are more than a dozen polo venues in the club, there is only one venue that is most suitable for playing professional games, which is equivalent to the size of 7-8 ordinary football fields. Obviously, Chong Tiange, who came first, has already explained that the polo club has

The opening ceremony is ready, and the bagpipers and drummers on the sidelines are already in place.

"Yeah, let's do some activities. Now that we're here, how about we gather four people each and compete?"

Chong Tiange raised his eyebrows. As he spoke, he tried to put the helmet in his arms upright, but he was holding the riding whip in his hand and his fingers were not flexible enough. He tied it a few times and it became a little loose, so he turned his head to the side.

Ye Yingning took a look and said respectfully: "Mrs. Zhou, I would like to trouble you to come over and do me a favor."

After speaking, he pointed to his chin.

Ye Yingning was stunned for a moment. It wasn't until several eyes from the front, back, left and right fell on her face at the same time that she came back to her senses and realized that Chong Tiange was asking her to help him fasten the straps of his helmet.

It's really embarrassing, but I have to go. If I don't go, it will be easier to appear guilty.

She hesitated for a few seconds and subconsciously looked at Zhou Yang. He raised his chin slightly, as if he had no intention of stopping her.

"Oh, okay."

Ye Yingning nodded and walked over. She was wearing flat shoes and was a bit shorter than Chong Tiange. He was obviously asking for help, but he remained motionless. She gritted her teeth and had no choice but to stand on tiptoes and reach out to tie them for him.

.

The polo helmet had a strap running from the top of the hat to the chin. Her cold fingers inevitably touched Chong Tiange's chin, and he seemed to frown slightly.

The tiptoeing posture made Ye Yingning's center of gravity unsteady. Just as she opened her mouth to say, "It's tied," her feet stumbled and she almost fell.

Chong Tiange stretched out his hand, touched her waist, and whispered: "Be careful."

The temperature in his palms was so hot that he could feel it through his gloves. Ye Yingning pushed him away in panic and stood firm.

Chong Tiange smiled slightly, no longer looking at her, but this time he looked at Zhou Yang and Qiao Yanne, pointed at his friends behind him, and suggested: "We have formed a group of four here, and you, two more. Two teams.

How about playing three measures first, adding up to twenty minutes, as a warm-up?"

Both sides had no objections, and soon, eight players from the two teams were selected and ready to start.

The bagpiper, dressed in traditional English clothing, led the drummers onto the polo field and played the opening song.

Here, the trainer has brought everyone's polo horses over one by one. Zhou Yang's horse is an Arabian horse, very beautiful; Chong Tiange's horse is a high-quality purebred horse, extremely noble.

"Mrs. Zhou, please help Mr. Zhou wrap a bandage for a good fortune."

The trainer smiled and handed the bandage over to him and explained: "The horse's leg is easy to be hit here, so wrap it tightly. Knights all hope that a beautiful girl will take care of these details for them."

After saying that, the men's female companions were all eager to try and took the bandages from their respective stable boys.

Ye Yingning walked to Zhou Yang's horse, knelt down and tied it tightly. Then she braided the ponytail and tied it tightly according to the trainer's instructions.

Zhou Yang took the horse rope and did not avoid suspicion. He kissed her gently on the forehead in front of everyone, "Thank you, madam."

She couldn't dodge, so she could only chuckle: "Waiting for your outstanding performance."
