Chapter 317 The 9-Year-Old, Brainless Adopted Daughter 19

Outside the Imperial Estate

Hearing the shouts from inside, Bai Ji felt bitter inside!

Who knew that Miss Gu was brought here by her whole family?

Unable to use ordinary methods, they had to pretend to be kidnappers and abduct her after she entered the venue. They also used a smokescreen to avoid alerting the other people in the venue.

After the Gu family members officially entered, seeing that Gu Xinyan was able to take her seat smoothly without any external obstacles, and even had her friends invite her to sit aside, they were basically relieved and began their own social activities.

She can't keep hiding forever. If Gu Xinyan isn't sent back after the competition, the Gu family will definitely send people to search for her.

At that time, these little tricks will not be kept secret from the people in the Imperial Estate.

Helpless, Bai Ji could only report the situation to the princess and wait outside the royal estate for further instructions.

Gu Xinyan was fast asleep at the moment. Bai Ji's professional training team consisted of several women, who were not sure what their master was thinking.

They didn't even get in touch with their actual superiors.

But the work is light and doesn't require much brainpower, and the appearance frequency isn't high. When there's no work, just don't make a big splash in the city. A single reward can be equivalent to a whole month's salary.

Several women, who were physically fit, had simply wanted to try polo. However, they were not compatible with the horses; they lacked flexibility, coordination, and balance, and were only good for brute force.

Originally, the person in charge also planned to leave a few people to work at the Shuizhu New Field.

They were chosen by Brother Bai first and then had to go there for training.

I must say, they're truly experts at this! Each of them, learning the appropriate techniques based on their individual strengths, has genuinely cultivated a master of disguise and the ability to detect sleeping potions. They act swiftly and decisively, and each also has a legitimate, leisurely side job, though unrelated to Xia Youmi's polo business. This professional team is thoroughly enjoying their work.

They dared not easily let others know, for fear of losing their livelihood.

on the other side,

Xia Youmi received the message and glanced at Lü Shuo, who was preparing.

They could simply send someone to delay Bai Ji for half the game; there was no need to go to such lengths. They could send him back at halftime.

in this way,

Bai Jicai crouched at this advantageous position on the edge, carefully listening to the drumbeats in the arena to assess the situation.

Inside the arena, cheers erupted, signaling the arrival of the athletes.

Eight people participated in exhibition matches only, placing them before the professional matches.

Grouping was simple, determined by members with the highest on-site scores casting their balls – a great opportunity for them to showcase their talents and recognize their special status, as the players didn't know their true teammates until the results were announced.

This adds even more to the watchability.

There will be ten people participating in this competition.

In addition to the regular eight-man team, one player will be selected from each of the third and fourth ranked teams in professional competitions.

This serves as both a benefit and a form of reassurance for the teams striving and fighting hard.

It's also the sense of accomplishment that team supporters want to see—promoting someone to the top. Given that everyone profits handsomely, there are naturally few dissenting voices.

The eight of them will actually keep things fresh.

"coming!"

"Wow! The eldest princess is actually pitching the ball herself!"

"No, it's her son, Gu Ningzuo. The team that finished fourth this time is said to have been organized by him." Some spectators clearly knew more about the situation of each team.

"That's a great stance, why not go and fight yourself?"

"Tsk tsk, even a gold nugget requires someone to be willing to part with it..."

"Shh!"

The ten players on the field will be assigned to the red and blue teams as each senior member scores a goal.

Every cheer from the audience meant that a player had secured a team.

The third and fourth professional players were assigned first. The fourth player, who came from Gu Ning's left team, was assigned to the blue team, while the third player happened to be assigned to the red team.

The first wave of confrontation has begun.

Next, Gu Xin'e was assigned to the red team, which sparked a wave of explanations, with people saying that the Gu family had invested in the team that their fourth son was on.

Of course, one should think about making money and building a reputation.

But now, they're fighting amongst themselves! Apart from his older brother Gu Ningyao, who was sweating bullets, none of the other members of the Gu family had expected this.

The fourth brother is a power type and very fierce. What if he gets hurt while fighting?

Furthermore, he knew that Gu Ningzuo had instructed the fourth brother to perform well and prove the team's worth. Therefore, he would definitely not hold back when he made his move.

I'm afraid it's only the young emperor.

They can all charge and crash at will.

As expected, Lü Shuo was assigned to the blue team.

The fourth brother's nose was practically pointing to the sky, and he kept giving his employer, Gu Ningzuo, approving glances.

It even made whimpering noises towards the third brother.

It means, your team has a young girl, but my team has the person you absolutely cannot mess with.

As long as the little emperor is on the team, he can go all out to fight the red team, and his entire family will be safe!

The third brother turned his head away disdainfully, trying not to respond to the fourth brother's provocation. His hands were clenched tightly, and he silently prayed to the gods and ancestors for help! He begged to receive any one of the rice cakes!

Don't take them all!

Even the third brother has a master watching his every move!

Perhaps it was his ancestors' fault for nagging him, for no sooner had they finished than Fu Yu was assigned to the blue team.

A cheer erupted from the crowd, and instantly, the odds for the red team skyrocketed.

Upon seeing this, Lan Xiu, who was guarding the betting area, immediately added a hundred bets to the red team. The princess had instructed her that, regardless of which team she joined, she should only bet on the team opposite Emperor Lü Shuo to win.

Now that Fu Yu has been assigned there, the number of people who are optimistic about the Blue Team has surged, making it even easier to bet on them.

Lan Xiu never acts on her own initiative.

They weren't worried that their master would lose money.

Afterwards, Wang Yuhuan was assigned to the red team, and the odds for the red team increased by another 10%, so Lan Xiu increased her bets again.

Huo Pan was assigned to the blue team, so naturally, his bonus increased by another 30%, and it's going to keep going!

Fei Liangcai then joined the red team. Unfortunately, he was a boy, but he was the weakest among the boys, even less ruthless than Mu Ying.

The Red Team's support rate is already appalling.

If Xia Youmi had also joined the Blue Team, today's game would have been a foregone conclusion!

Fortunately, it was Mu Ying's brother's turn to pitch, and he did a great job, sending his sister to the stronger blue team.

in this way,

Xia Youmi has been confirmed to remain on the Red Team.

At least they managed to salvage the odds a little. By this time, Lan Xiu had already made her graceful exit, and the situation was stable!

There was still a short time before the official start of the competition, and it was during this time that people finalized their betting teams. For example, Li Wanran and Sheng Ze's relatives and friends, after confirming Xia Youmi's whereabouts, began to pour money into their betting to show their strong support.

With strong financial backing, the Red Team's support rate can be brought back to a respectable level.

They were also well aware of their master's character.

Blue Embroidery will enter the market earlier and fix a higher odds.

Hehe, even the most powerful man in his nineties doesn't earn as much as she does.

The master paid her a reward according to a set ratio.

Here in blue, everyone was beaming with joy. On the field, the players wore red and blue armbands. These weren't very useful; their main purpose was to identify the teams, as their polo uniforms had already been modified.

It's convenient for movement without sacrificing style.

After the competition, the armbands embroidered with the members' names will be given to them as souvenirs.

The more you collect, the more prestigious you are.

Nowadays, there are even specialized embroidery workshops that make this, and the styles and feel are impeccable.
