Early the next morning, Yu Wuya personally went to Meng Yi's mansion, because of the heavy snowfall, the paper workshop did not start, Meng Yun happened to rest at home, so he soon took a carriage to the Qinghe Hou Mansion.

After listening to Chen Xu's words, Meng Yun thought for a while and said: "I am not familiar with Shang Qi, and rushing to investigate may cause him to be alert, but there is a person Qinghe Hou who can use it well!" ”

"Who?"

"This person Hou Ye knows, and there was a conflict in Wancheng?"

"Could it be Ma Teng?" Chen Xu asked in surprise.

"Exactly!" Meng Yun nodded, "Ma Teng is the nephew of Ma Boyuan, the former Wancheng County Guard, but Ma Boyuan has been dismissed and exiled to Yanmen because of the last bandit attack on His Majesty, and Ma Teng has not been implicated, and now he is still in Xianyang's house, his father died a few years ago, and there is an old lady and two sisters in the family, Ma Teng and Shang Qi Ao Jun used to play very well, although his status is not as good as before, but because it is an old acquaintance, the family also has some property, these people often still play together, if you want to secretly inquire about this matter." , Ma Teng is a good candidate, not to mention that Hou Ye is different from the past, as long as you open your mouth, he will not dare to resist at all! ”

"Where does his family live?" Chen Xuyan obeyed.

Ma Teng, according to Chen Xu's current status, can slap several to death, you must know that there are few marquis in the entire Great Qin now, even Li Si, the left minister of Daqin, has no marquis, Daqin is glorious for military merits, and the marquis are basically military generals, and it is basically difficult for civilian officials to be marquis, as for the many titles below the marquis, according to the military merits, there should be a distribution of land and wealth, but basically except for land and real estate, it is difficult to get a prince, unless there is an official position.

Daqin's current titles from level one to eight are ordinary titles, which are basically similar to the status of ordinary scholars, and they can get fields and real estate of different sizes and servants, but they still need to serve, and the titles of doctors and above can be low-level generals.

The ninth to eighteenth rank is a lord, a general in the army, a doctor and a secretary in the imperial court, in addition to being able to obtain different fields and real estate and servants, there is also the right to eat and reward and participate.

The nineteenth level is the Marquis of Guannei, and now almost all the marquis of Daqin are the Marquis of Guannei, Chen Xu's Marquis of Qinghe is, Qin Shihuang gave him the six hundred households in Qinghe Town to make a food estate, so the people in Qinghe Town have basically become his private tenants, and they do not need to pay grain taxes to the imperial court, all of them must be handed over to Chen Xu, and this marquis can also be hereditary.

The twentieth rank of the candidate, also known as the general candidate, there is only one in Great Qin now, that is the Marquis of Tongwu Wang Ben, and this title was accumulated by his father and son who swept the six countries.

At present, all the military merit rewards of Great Qin are only titles and have no real power, which was formed after Shang Ying's reform.

Because of the great Qin's emphasis on force, the civil and military positions of the Great Qin are not particularly clear, and another important reason for the difficulty of sealing the marquis is that after experiencing the incident of Wenxin Hou Lü Buwei and Changxin Hou Chang Yu, Qin Shi Huang was reluctant to be a marquis, because once the marquis was entitled, there was a real feudal eup, and the marquis was completely the same as the monarch in his own fiefdom, and it was difficult to control the livestock slaves and doormen, which was an extremely unsafe and unstable factor.

For example, the Marquis of Tongwu, Wang Ben, has a real feudal food estate, but they have been living in the Xianyang Marquis Mansion, and have been staying under the nose of Qin Shi Huang just to show their innocence, because their father and son are really too great military achievements, and they are the real marquis, and they are very famous in the Great Qin army, and many middle and low-level officers are lords who followed them to kill, so they are also extremely loyal to both of them, if the two want to rebel, with the appeal of the two in the army, they simply respond, so the two in order to avoid suspicion, Only when the turtle hides at home to play.

"As far as I know, Ma Teng is not at home on weekdays, if you look for him, it is best to go to the Lingering Fragrance Garden where the children of the princess gather, they gather there every day to play!" Meng Yun said.

"Where is the Lingering Fragrance Garden?" Although Chen Xu has been in Xianyang for more than half a month, he still has a dark eye on many places in Xianyang.

"Just east of the city!"

"Anyway, there's nothing to do today, if Meng Gongzi doesn't want to accompany me on a trip, I also want to see what the scenery of the Lingering Fragrance Garden is!" Chen Xu stood up with a smile.

"Master Hou invites you, Mengyun is better to obey than to be respectful!" Meng Yun also quickly stood up.

Half an hour later, Chen Xu, Meng Yun and Yu Wuya appeared with a few guards near a huge courtyard covering an area of 100 acres in the east of the city, the high walls and thick tiles covered by snow looked very heavy, and a tall gatehouse was hung with three ancient seal characters of Liuxiangyuan, and the sound of shouting and roaring could be heard from inside through the high courtyard wall, and there was a banging sound at the same time, and sometimes there would be a mixed cheering sound of men and women.

There were a few big men in leather jackets standing at the door, and when they saw Chen Xu and a group of people riding horses, they hurriedly saluted Meng Yun respectfully, "Meet Meng Gongzi!" ”

Meng Yun didn't bother to take a look, and after getting off the horse, he threw the reins of the horse to a big man and said, "Help us take care of the horse, is the horse here today?" ”

"Back to Meng Gongzi, Ma Gongzi is here, and he is playing with people inside!" A big man hurriedly said.

"It seems that it is the right time to come, Qinghe Hou, please!" Meng Yun smiled and led Chen Xu and Yu Wuya into the gate of the Lingering Fragrance Garden.

"Qinghe Hou?" After Chen Xu and the others walked into the Liuxiang Garden, several big men at the door came back from shock, and then their faces changed drastically.

Walk into the Lingering Fragrance Garden, what is shown in front of you is a vacant land about the size of half a football field, there are low walls around, the snow on the ground has not been shoveled, more than ten young people are wearing thin jackets on the snow and bowing, there are seven or eight on each side, wearing hats of different colors on their heads to indicate different camps, a bow ball sewn of sheepskin flies around in the air and on the snow, the people who are juju are also running out of breath and passing back and forth, the scene looks very lively, hundreds of people gathered on the sidelines, there are men and women, old and young, From time to time, applause cheers for the Keju people.

"It's very lively!" Chen Xu was quite surprised, he never knew that Xianyang still had such a more formal football field, but the way of playing football was very different from that of later generations.

Football in later generations is two doors, and the Keju in front of the two teams behind there are six doors, in fact, the door is not counted, it is six pits, the attacking side kicks the ball into one of the opponent's pits to score, and there are also boys who pick up the ball, scoring personnel and referees, the most surprising thing for Chen Xu is that the referee still has a bamboo whistle in his mouth.

Looking at Chen Xu's face full of surprise, Meng Yun explained: "This is actually a change in the rules of the army, ordinary juju does not need such a large venue, one person, two people, three people can play, there are six methods of hanging and stopping the hook, I heard from the people of Wuhou Mansion that there is also a latest way of juju, each side has a door, more intense and exciting than this, but unfortunately I didn't have a chance to see it." ”

Chen Xu naturally knew what method Meng Yun was talking about, it was definitely the football rules of later generations that he invented in Qinghe Town Primary School, it must have been Wang Jian who came back and organized domestic servants to play in the house, but the football-like kicking style in later generations requires a ball with good elasticity, which is different from the current popular ball stuffed with grass in a sheepskin bag, and if the ball is not good, it will not be able to kick well.

The kick I see now is also more intense, and the people who are juju are also highly skilled, running and jumping and dodging, and the ball rarely falls to the ground in the sound of banging, but because the snow on the ground is relatively thick, the people who run often wrestle, and they are all tired and sweaty.

Chen Xu stood by and watched for a few minutes, and he also had some new understanding of this group of disciples who were playing football, at least these second goods were in good health, no one was tired after such a strenuous exercise, and the overhead kick was very flexible.

If you get this group of guys into the national team in the future, it is estimated that it will be no problem to sweep Asia and easily enter the World Cup.

It can be seen that the Chinese are inferior to the generation from generation to generation.

Not only are there fewer and fewer people with strong martial arts like Yu Wuya, but even playing football is far from the same as the ancestors.

Keju this kind of movement has been invented in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, inherited to the Great Qin period has been very mature, and various rules are also becoming more and more mature, both the people and the army have carried out vigorous, the army even Keju as a daily necessary training to practice the confrontation between soldiers, in order to improve the combat effectiveness of the soldiers.

Legend of the Han Dynasty ancestor Liu Bang's father is particularly fond of juju, Liu Bang became the emperor of the Han Dynasty after the dad to the capital Chang'an pension, it turned out that dad was depressed all day long, a question to know that dad because no one to accompany him juju, so very lonely and depressed, Liu Bang then moved the neighbors of his hometown into the capital, specially organized an elderly juju team to play with dad.

And at this moment, Liu Bang is thirty-seven or eighteen years old, and his father is more than fifty years old, it is estimated that like Liu Bang, the father and son are not doing their jobs, and they are drinking and gambling all day long somewhere in Daqin, and they are happy.

"Master Hou, that's Ma Teng!" Meng Yun's eyes searched the crowd and then pointed to a guy who was kicking a ball.

Chen Xu looked over and found that it was indeed Ma Teng, but he didn't recognize it for a while because he was wearing a cloth hat with fixed hair on his head.

"Master Hou, wait a minute, I'll call him over!" Meng Yun walked to the edge of the Keju field to find the referee, whispered a few words, and the referee hurriedly blew the bamboo flute, and a group of Keju people stopped inexplicably.

"Ma Teng, come here!" Meng Yun jumped onto the low wall and shouted.

Ma Teng saw that it was Meng Yun, and his face became quite ugly, but he still didn't dare to complain, so he could only obediently come over and salute: "Meng Gongzi, what are you looking for me all of a sudden?" ”

"Someone wants to see you!" Meng Yun turned around and pointed at Chen Xu and said.

Chen ...... Chen Xu ......" Ma Teng's face suddenly changed when he saw it, and there was an extremely frightened expression in his eyes, because the incident in Qinghe Town last year had almost become a nightmare for him, and he could recognize Chen Xu's face when it turned to ashes.
