Chapter Seventy-Eight

After Yan Kang and Li Xi'er hit it off, he led a team the next day, found a suitable martial arts venue, built a goal, hastily drew the center line of the venue, the forbidden area, etc., and practiced with the team brought by Li Xi'er according to the new regulations.

Wan Yankang personally served as the referee, constantly correcting the actions of the two teams on the field, and directing the players on both sides how to play the ball.

Li Xi'er sat outside the martial arts arena, and the two maids played the parasols, sent some candied fruits to his mouth from time to time, and drank two sips of wine from time to time, so he looked at ease.

The dozen or so players on both sides were not used to the rules at the beginning, and they were all stumbling and stumbling, and there was no ornamentation at all.

Half an hour later, both sides were familiar with the rules, and they were both running and colliding on the field. Li Xi'er who watched it was called a bloody person, and he stood up as soon as he brushed it, and he was going to play football in person.

After a few days, Wan Yankang and Li Xi'er's team were already familiar with the rules, so Li Xi'er personally posted and invited a group of princes and nobles, wealthy businessmen and gentry to watch a ball game.

The results speak for themselves.

Football is a man's game, and this sentence is indeed true from ancient times to the present.

After the revised Keju was promoted by Yan Kang and Li Xi'er, in a month, it has become the best sports and amusement project in the popular capital.

Not one of them!

Seeing this, Wan Yankang proposed to change the name and directly renamed the new-style Keju to football.

When Li Xi'er heard it, football, football, the name was changed well. What this guy thinks more in his heart is that in the future, our Lao Li will play football, and those who lost to Song Guo in the past don't count.

That sissy thing, who still plays that! Lao Tzu plays football!

At this moment, the middle capital city is in full swing.

The princes and nobles, if anyone can't pull out a football team, they are embarrassed to go out to greet relatives and friends!

Princes and grandsons, if anyone can't kick a few kicks, if they can't score a few goals on the field, they will be labeled as sissies!

A group of wealthy gentry families, no matter whether the head of the family likes it or not, there are always children in the family who love it, if anyone can't even pull up a team, they will be scolded as poor eggs!

I can't even afford a football team, so I'm embarrassed to say that I am a gentleman?

In just one month, Wan Yankang made a rough estimate that there were no less than 100 teams called the number one in the capital, and they were increasing rapidly.

As for the venue, that's not a problem. The martial arts arena and the racetrack, if you renovate it casually, you can make it into a stadium, whether it is a grass or not, I don't pay attention to it first, in short, let's talk about it.

This football storm, without a little precaution or a trace of concern, appeared so violently. As the founder, Wan Yankang, of course, does not have the slightest idea of low-key concealing his identity and using Li Xier as a shield.

When King Yan Wanyan Hongyan first learned that it was Wanyan Kang who tossed out such a thing, he was overjoyed, and immediately said that the emperor's grandson Wanyan Kang's plaything was demoralized, leading everyone to follow suit, corrupting the style of Dajin Guo, demanding that Wanyan Kang be severely punished, and to treat King Zhao's crime of lax discipline.

Zhang Zong didn't have much interest in Keju, but after hearing that Yan Kang had tossed such a big battle, he subconsciously didn't like it, and wanted to give an order to admonish him.

Wanyan Honglie saw that the situation was not good, and immediately stood up to fight against King Yan, saying that Wanyan Kang's move was just a juvenile game, and King Yan was taking revenge for personal gain, so please don't listen to slander.

Zhang Zong thought that he hadn't seen this emperor for more than three years, and he also had the heart to see this emperor and grandson, so he ordered someone to announce that Yan Kang had come to the palace before he did.

Wan Yankang was also surprised when he learned that a eunuch suddenly announced that he had entered the palace, he stuffed a piece of gold into the little eunuch's hand, and asked softly: "Father-in-law, be careful, take it to drink tea, I don't know what is going on in the palace, you can easily tell one or two." ”

The little eunuch thought it was ingots of silver, and wanted to return Wan Yan Kang, urging Wan Yan Kang to hurry into the palace. Unexpectedly, when I took a look, it was actually a yellow treasure, and the little eunuch stretched out half of his hand and unconsciously retracted it, pretending to say: "The heart of the prince is too heavy, and the villain really doesn't dare to be it!" Saying that, he made a gesture to return it to Yan Kang.

Wan Yankang's face was flat, his hand was pushed, and he said stiffly: "My father-in-law doesn't look down on me Zhao Wangfu, if my father-in-law dislikes it, I will throw this blockage into the dung pit when I turn around!" ”

The little eunuch was afraid that Wan Yan Kang would really take back the ingot of gold, and after seeing Yan Kang behaving like this, he couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief, retracted his hand, and whispered a few words in Wan Yan Kang's ear, telling Wan Yan Kang the reason why he entered the palace.

Wan Yan Kang secretly scolded Wan Yan Hongyan in his heart for not mentioning it, but said with a smile on his face: "Please wait for my father-in-law and let me change my clothes." ”

The little eunuch accepted the big gift, so naturally he didn't have any opinions, but just said that he would ask the prince to hurry up.

Wan Yankang was originally practicing martial arts, wearing a brown short and tight clothes, and at this time, he immediately turned into the back hall, and a few minutes later, he changed his clothes and came out.

When the little eunuch saw it, he immediately praised it, what a royal handsome son.

After Yan Kang entered the main hall of the court, he went to the two zhang in front of the throne, turned over and bowed: "Grandson knocks to see the imperial grandfather, long live the imperial grandfather, long live the imperial grandfather!" ”

Zhang Zong began to look at the main hall after Yan Kang walked into the main hall, and when he got closer, he saw it even more clearly. I saw that Yan Kang was wearing a plain white robe, a jade belt around his waist, and a scarf on his head, which was exactly the Confucian dress he had changed before.

If this garment is worn by ordinary people, it is only general, and it will be slightly wide. But although Wan Yankang is young, because he has practiced martial arts for many years, he is tall but beautiful. A set of ordinary Confucian clothes, worn on Wan Yankang's body, looks heroic.

Wan Yan Jing secretly praised in his heart: The real royal thousand miles of horses! Without waiting for the eunuch to shout, he said softly: "Kang'er is flat, stand up and speak." ”

As soon as Yan Kang heard the words, he knew that he had changed his clothes correctly. On weekdays, he is dressed in a tight-fitting suit, which is convenient for practicing martial arts, and today he entered the palace and specially changed into a Confucian suit, which really met the appetite of the old emperor.

After hearing this, Yan Kang kowtowed and thanked him before getting up.

After Wan Yankang got up, Wan Yanjing looked at this grandson, and the more he looked at it, the more he liked it.

There is no harm if there is no comparison, the grandson who has not been seen for more than three years, has a long face like a crown of jade, and a tall posture, compared with these emperors and grandsons who are good at the end of the face, that is called one in the sky and one on the ground.

For a while, Wan Yan Jing forgot that it was right to let Wan Yan Kang come to the palace, and began to take the test to compare Wan Yan Kang's ability to study in the past few years, and whether his knowledge has improved.

Although Wan Yan Kang has been practicing martial arts for several years, he will also review some homework in his spare time, plus he has read a lot of Buddhist scriptures.

Wan Yan Jingqi said: "Has Kang'er studied Buddhism recently?" ”

Wan Yankang said: "After my grandson accidentally injured his cousin a few years ago, he has been uneasy in his heart, and he has read a few Buddhist scriptures in his spare time to improve his cultivation, and he can also pray for the emperor's grandfather, father, and cousin. ”

After Yan Jing reached middle age, he also began to worship the Buddha, although he is not a devout Buddhist, but on the fifteenth day of the new year, he will worship the Buddha with incense. After seeing Yan Kang say this, Wan Yan Jing was even more happy in his heart, and couldn't help but say a few times: "Good, good, good!" ”

Wanyan Hongyan was originally menacing, and wanted to use football to suppress Wanyan Honglie, but after Wanyan Kang entered the palace, Wanyan Jing actually showed such affection for Wanyankang. He was in a hurry, and hurriedly stepped forward and arched his hand: "Father, the emperor ......"

Wan Yan Jing was talking about Buddhism with his grandson with great interest, but when Wan Yan Hongyan interrupted him, he remembered to get down to business. It's just that Wan Yan Jing may still have his heart towards Wan Yan Hongyan, so before he asked, the emperor's heart was already biased towards Wan Yan Kang.

Wan Yan Jing put away his smiling face, frowned, and said, "Kang'er, King Yan said that you are a plaything and have lost your mind and corrupted the style of the Dajin Kingdom, but is there such a thing?" ”

"There is no such thing!" Wanyan Kang cut the railway.

Wanyan Hongyan sneered: "Bold, the Manchu Dynasty is civil and military, who doesn't know this juju... Now it's called football, it's what you tossed out, and in front of the saint, you dare to lie in front of the temple! ”

After speaking, Wanyan Hongyan bowed to Wanyan Jing and said, "This son has no form, please take a heavy responsibility!" ”

Wan Yan Kang didn't wait for Wan Yan Jing to speak, and immediately laughed: "What my uncle said is ridiculous, when did I say that football was not made by me, how can I lie!" ”

"The Holy One asked you just now, didn't you deny it outright, and in front of the Holy One, how could you be full of nonsense!"

Wanyan Kang Shi Ran said: "Tang Taizong has clouds, and if you take history as a mirror, you can know the rise and fall." King Yan doesn't read history, and he doesn't know that football is a move to benefit the country and strengthen the army, so it's just that, why do you want to tarnish my junior reputation! ”

After the Song Kingdom came out with a high talent, football has always been regarded as an amusement project in the mainstream consciousness of this era, and Wan Yan Hongyan accused Wan Yan Kang of losing his mind, which is precisely because of this.

As soon as Yan Jing heard that the history books contained football as a move to benefit the country and strengthen the army, he immediately became interested and asked: "Kang'er called this juju... What is the origin of football as a move to strengthen the country? ”

"Grandpa Qiqi, football began to be used in military training, which originated in the Han Dynasty. Liu Xiang has a cloud in "Don't Record": "Bow down, and the strength of the troops is also." Therefore, when practicing samurai, knowing and talented, they all practice because of playfulness." Bangu once included football in the category of military skills, and said: "The winner of offense and defense is also." "The style of football in the Han Dynasty is completely different from the style of football in the Song Kingdom. Song Guo kicked the juju, that was a pleasure. Sun Er studied the rules of football in the Han Dynasty, and re-compiled the football playing method, one can strengthen our country's physique, and the other can train the formation, and train the soldiers in the game. ”

Ban Gu is a great writer of the Han Dynasty, the author of "Han Shu", coupled with outstanding martial arts, Wan Yan Jing has always admired Ban Gu very much.

Wan Yan Kang moved Ban Gu out, and the balance in Wan Yan Jing's heart had already turned upside down.

Wanyan Hongyan looked at the momentum and was not right, and every time he wanted to interject and refute, he didn't know how to say it.

Wan Yankang had already occupied the top at this time, and finally lit a fire: "Now the men in my princely and aristocratic families in Zhongdu are proud to be able to play football, but King Yan thinks that in the Manchu Dynasty, they are all ignorant and ignorant, and they can't be easily teased by me!" ”

Li Xi'er originally thought that Wan Yan Kang would be reprimanded for saying that he would be reprimanded, and he would add fuel to the flames in this matter, and he would inevitably be implicated, so he was waiting behind with his tail between his legs.

At this time, seeing that Yan Kang quoted scriptures and was speechless to refute Yan Hongyan, Li Xier immediately jumped out and shouted.

The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, except for Wan Yan Hongyan's henchmen, which team did not organize a kick, and a few who did not get off the field to kick a few feet, at this time everyone stood up and joined the ranks of condemning Wan Yan Hongyan......
