On the streets of Tianjin, Emperor Hongzhi, dressed in cloth, took Empress Zhang's hand and strolled through the commercial district of Tianjin New Town, looking east and asking west, and he was in a pretty good mood.

"Tianjin is getting more and more lively~"

Emperor Hongzhi looked at the dense flow of people, and then looked at the commercial street with no end in sight.

I vaguely remember the last time I came to Tianjin, it was far from being as lively as it is now, the streets were not as long as they are now, and the flow of people was not as dense as it is now.

"It's the first time the concubine has come to Tianjin, it's really lively, even more lively than our capital."

"This high-rise building is like entering another world."

Empress Zhang also said with a smile on her face.

It's really rare, it's rare that Emperor Hongzhi will take himself out of the palace and enjoy the world of the two.

"Yes, we are old, and times have changed~"

"But it's enough to see my Ming people living and working in peace and contentment, with no worries about food and clothing."

Emperor Hongji nodded, looking at everything in front of him, full of a sense of accomplishment.

In recent years, the development of the Beijing-Tianjin region has been obvious to all, the Ming Dynasty is thriving, and the Haiqing River banquet is also a small sense of accomplishment for him to be the emperor.

Now up and down the government and the opposition, there are often people who are blowing about the Ming Dynasty, the prosperity of Hongzhi, the three emperors of Gonggai, the five emperors of Degao, and so on, although Emperor Hongzhi also knows that these are all shooting their own horses.

However, everyone likes to be patted on the back, and he Emperor Hongzhi is no exception.

"Let's go, let's watch the game, I heard that this football is also very popular now."

Emperor Hongzhi smiled and took Empress Zhang to the Tianjin Imperial Stadium.

"It's very hot, and he's going to play today, he's still the main force of the Royal Military Academy."

Empress Zhang nodded with a smile on her face.

This time, I came to Tianjin to watch the game.

The final on the first day of October was held in the afternoon, and before the game began, tens of thousands of people had already gathered on the periphery of the Royal Stadium.

This time, because Emperor Hongzhi and Empress Zhang came to watch the game in person, the security of the stadium was also taken over by the palace guards.

There were a lot of people who came to Tianjin from the capital to watch the game, the emperor and the empress came in person, and the cabinet elders of the dynasty, the six Shangshu squires, and the military generals and nobles also came.

The VIP rooms at the Royal Stadium are also booked in advance, and some of them are not of enough level, and they can only sit in ordinary spectator seats if they are slow.

Before three o'clock, when all the VIPs entered, the entrance gates also began to check in and enter.

"Father ~ Mother ~"

Zhu Houzhao, who was wearing a red robe and No. 9 robe, came to the Tianzi No. 1 private room.

"Yes, yes, very energetic~"

Empress Zhang looked at Zhu Houzhao very dotingly and said.

"Well, I'm the main player at the Royal Military Academy, and I'm averaging two goals per game."

Zhu Houzhao raised his head slightly and said proudly.

"Don't run too fast, be careful not to get hurt~"

Emperor Hongzhi nodded slightly, the prince likes to play football, so go play football, after all, he is still young, not to mention, playing football can also strengthen his body, unlike himself who has been weak and sick since he was a child, he is only in his thirties, Emperor Hongzhi looks like he is in his fifties, full of white hair, and the twilight is blank.

"Yes~"

"Father, Mother, wait and see how I score."

Zhu Houzhao looked full of confidence.

Approaching the game, the pennant fluttered on the court, the crowd was crowded, and the atmosphere was very hot.

Because of the arrival of Emperor Hongzhi and Empress Zhang, the Daming Dragon Flag was also lit up in the Tianzi No. 1 private room, which means that members of the royal family came to watch the game.

Noticing this, people couldn't help but get excited, and when they saw Emperor Hongzhi and Empress Zhang in the private room, the people of the Ming Dynasty at the scene couldn't help cheering.

"Your Majesty~"

I don't know when, Liu Jin came to the Tianzi No. 1 private room.

"Stinky boy, you have a lot of tricks~"

Seeing Liu Jin coming, Emperor Hongzhi smiled and said.

"Your Majesty Xie's praise~"

"Your Majesty, now that everyone knows that you came to watch the ball game, and now they are all looking at you, do you want to say hello to everyone?"

Liu Jin looked at the huge stadium, because of the arrival of Emperor Hongzhi, the atmosphere was even more hot, and countless people were looking at the area where Emperor Hongzhi was located.

"How do you say hello?"

Emperor Hongzhi said with a slight stunned.

"Your Majesty, all you need to do is stand up and wave at everyone."

Liu Jin thought for a while and said, there is no sound in this era, so it is naturally impossible to make an impassioned speech.

"It's okay~"

Emperor Hongzhi smiled and nodded, then took Empress Zhang's hand and came to the window, stretched out his right hand and waved it at the people in the court.

"It's Your Majesty~"

"It's really the emperor~"

"The emperor also came to see the ball game~"

"Your Majesty is actually watching a football game with us~"

"Long live Your Majesty, long live long live~"

The stadium immediately resounded with cheers, and then the people arranged by Liu Jin began to shout, and as the shouts rang out, the others also shouted after hearing them.

The sound is like thunder, the momentum is like a storm, wave after wave, more and more neat.

Emperor Hongzhi waved his hand, feeling the fiery enthusiasm, and his smile became even bigger.

The people in the stadium were even more excited.

Daming is thriving, Emperor Hongzhi has always had a good reputation, the people love and like him very much, seeing that Emperor Hongzhi is so close to the people, the people in the stadium are even more excited, constantly cheering.

"Long live Your Majesty~"

"Long live Your Majesty~"

Emperor Hongzhi listened to the cheers like a tide, his eyes were slightly moist, this kind of opportunity to have fun with the people is too rare.

In this era, there has always been the way of the monarch and the minister, and the emperor should be high and far away from the public, so that people can maintain a sense of awe.

But now, feeling the respect of more than 20,000 people in the stadium, Emperor Hongzhi suddenly felt that this football game was actually quite good.

It is also very good to have an opportunity to be able to enjoy with the people of Daming by yourself.

"Liu Jin, I understand your good intentions."

"This football game is very good, and a stadium will be built in the capital in the future, and football games will be held often, so I will go and see it when I have time."

Emperor Hongzhi returned to his position and said to Liu Jin with a smile.

"Your Majesty, the British Duke has decided to build a stadium on this side of the capital, and there will definitely be a ball game in the capital in the future."

Liu Jin replied with a smile.

"Good, good~"

"I'm looking forward to the next game."

Emperor Hongzhi nodded with satisfaction.

The pitch gradually fell silent and the game was about to begin.

The wonderful dance at the beginning is naturally indispensable, but because Emperor Hongzhi and many important ministers in the court came to watch the game, this thigh-baring dance is definitely inappropriate.

Therefore, Liu Jin also arranged the dance of 'Shengshi Daming', the theme of which was rehearsed around the strong and prosperous Daming, and the strength and richness of the Ming Dynasty were shown through the form of dance.

Accompanied by the singing and dancing with a strong rhythm and tune, more than 20,000 people in the entire stadium can clearly feel the strength of the Ming Dynasty from the opening song and dance, and a strong sense of national pride and self-confidence is also spontaneously born, so that the Ming people on the scene can't help but cheer.

As for some Koreans, Japanese people, Hu people, grassland people, etc., they were silent, and the strength of the Ming Dynasty could be clearly felt from this moment.

This dance alone shows the majestic atmosphere and the strength of an ancient country with a long history of thousands of years.

Soon it was time for the entrance ceremony, and the Tianjin Royal Military Academy team wearing red uniforms and the Tianjin Maritime Academy team wearing blue uniforms finally came to the finals.

Both teams were very strong and made it all the way to the final, just one step away from victory.

"Your Majesty, look, it's the crown prince~"

When Empress Zhang saw Zhu Houzhao, the leader of the red team, she couldn't help but smile and said to Emperor Hongzhi.

"Hmm~"

Emperor Hongzhi nodded slightly.

Originally, before I came, I thought that the prince playing football was a plaything, and Liu Jin spent hundreds of thousands of taels of silver to build the stadium, but now it seems that it is completely different.

From beginning to end, Emperor Hongzhi did not feel that this was a plaything, but felt that through the sport of football, he was conveying a spirit, a spirit of a great country, and a spirit of self-confidence and unity.

This is very good, and Emperor Hongzhi likes it very much.

"Liu Jin, why do you have to hold a child when you enter?"

Emperor Hongzhi looked at the players from both sides and asked with some doubts.

"Your Majesty, this is to convey a spirit to the next generation, to infect the next generation through such a form."

Liu Jin thought about it and replied.

"That's a good way to do it."

After listening to this, Emperor Hongzhi also nodded slightly.

This is the best way to pass on the football atmosphere and atmosphere from an early age, and these children will definitely be football fans in the future.

Because Emperor Hongzhi and Empress Zhang came to watch the game, Liu Jin also added a link, and after entering, the players on both sides also bent down to salute the Tianzi No. 1 private room where Emperor Hongzhi was located.

Emperor Hongzhi and Empress Zhang, under Liu Jin's reminder, also stood up again, came to the window and waved at them, and suddenly the entire stadium set off a cheer again.

"Huh~"

With the whistle blowing.

The final of the first football match of Daming also officially began, and all attention was suddenly shifted to the field.

This time, because of the final, it was a close match.

Therefore, the tickets alone were sold for several taels of silver, and as for the handicap between the two sides, it was as high as more than three million taels of silver.

Not only the more than 20,000 spectators in the stadium, but also tens of thousands of people outside the stadium are always paying attention to the game and the victory or defeat between the two sides.
