Zheng Rongtai brought Li Yanqing to the Taixue South Campus, which is equivalent to the size of a football field and a half in later generations, for the students to take martial arts classes, archery, running, a corner of the school also set up a special archery garden, the imperial court encouraged the Taixue students to shoot arrows and strengthen their bodies, but there was often one of the most popular sports in the Song Dynasty here, that is, Keju. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Keju is ancient football, compared with modern football, its confrontation is weaker, the two sides take turns shooting, just like the penalty kick competition in later generations, it reflects the weak atmosphere of the Great Song Dynasty from one side, emphasizing skills and light confrontation.

There is a Keju competition on the school field, a standard Keju team has 12 people, and there are a large number of Taixue, and a total of four Keju teams have been formed, which are named Wenyuan, Wenbo, Wenfa, and Wentao.

But there are hundreds of Keju teams in the whole Bianjing, and the people of Bianjing are extremely fanatical about Keju, up to the magnates of the Son of Heaven, down to the pawn hawkers, all of whom are obsessed with Keju, and Zhao Ji, the Son of Heaven, is an extremely fanatical Keju fan, and he himself is also a Keju master.

Although Li Yanqing loved to play football in his previous life, he had a strong sense of foot, but Keju has little to do with modern football, Keju is more like kicking shuttlecock, as long as the ball does not land, as long as the ball does not land, you can use any part of your body to hit the ball, generally speaking, the higher the ball is kicked, the better.

In Lushan Academy, Li Yanqing often plays with Wang Gui and Tang Huai, but he is not outstanding in Keju, Tang Huai is a recognized master, and once went to the county to compete on behalf of Xiaohe Township, but Li Yanqing has never won this honor, his Keju skills are not even as good as Wang Gui, only slightly stronger than Yue Fei.

In Li Yanqing's previous life, he often saw some plots in some novels, saying that if he played well, he could be promoted and make a fortune, and since then he has been ranked in the power class, such as Gao Yu and others.

When he really integrated into this society, he knew that this kind of thing could not happen at all, at most the emperor paid for them, and it might be possible to get rich if he wanted to, but if he wanted to be an official, it was not something that the emperor could say, otherwise the professional masters in the tile shop would grab a lot of them, and everyone would play Keju like fire, and no one would be an official.

The reason why Gao Yu can be developed is that he was recommended by Su Dongpo, and it has little to do with Keju, the Song Dynasty is the world of civil officials, although they compete for power and profit, and they dump each other, but it is not to the extent that they are discouraged.

On the contrary, civil officials have a strong sense of identity, and they pay special attention to the background of officials, and only those who come from professional backgrounds are qualified to rank alongside them.

If anyone became an official by kicking the bow, the civil officials would have turned the world upside down.

At this time, the two Keju teams in the school field were competing, and the two teams of 24 people were all physically flexible, and Keju was extremely proficient.

There are two poles erected in the middle of the school field, three zhang high, the distance between the two poles is about one, the middle is a large net, and there is a mesh that is a foot square in the middle of the large net, called 'Merry Eye' to kick the ball through the mesh to score.

The two teams stand on either side of the pole and take turns kicking the ball, the ball is transmitted once in each player, the ball cannot land, once it lands, the other team plays the ball, and the team with the most kicks in the eye within the allotted time wins.

There were hundreds of students watching the game, and they kept shouting loudly.

"Sun Daya, how much time is there to end the game?"

Zheng Rongtai shouted more than a dozen steps away from the court, Sun Daya is the deployment correction of this game, that is, the referee, and there is an assistant referee next to him, called the social secretary.

Sun Daya's real name is Sun Daya, because he has a pair of big teeth, so he is nicknamed Sun Daya, over time, his real name has been forgotten, Sun Daya is quite respectful to Zheng Rongtai, and hurriedly stepped forward and smiled: "Yanai came just in time, it will be over soon." ”

Taixue's Keju team is funded by the prince, of course, the prince is just a name, and it is the Zheng family's business to pay the money, Zheng Rongtai is looked down upon in other aspects, but he can gain absolute respect in the Keju team.

Sun Daya looked at Li Yanqing and said with a smile: "This virtuous brother is a newly enrolled student!" ”

Zheng Rongtai snorted, "People are from the top of the house!" ”

Sun Daya suddenly suddenly, "It turns out that the virtuous brother is Li Yanqing?" ”

"It's here, please take care of Brother Sun!" Li Yanqing smiled and clasped his fists and saluted.

Zheng Rongtai pulled Sun Daya aside and asked in a low voice, "How is my batch of goods?" ”

"Don't worry! The goods are already on the way, and they will arrive in the capital in two days. ”

Although Zheng Rongtai's voice was very small, Li Yanqing heard it very clearly, he couldn't help but secretly scold himself for being stupid, Zheng Fatzi obviously told himself that his uncle was one of the most famous spice merchants in the Great Song Dynasty, and he was still worried about the high cost of spices and the lack of supply, and the ready-made spice merchants were by his side, and he had never thought of it.

Zheng Rongtai walked over with a smile and whispered to Li Yanqing: "This Sun Daya is not simple, there are all kinds of ways, you can ask him for help if you encounter any trouble in the future, this time my uncle's batch of spices is not taxed enough, and it was deducted in Yangzhou, I only spent three hundred taels of silver, and he helped me get it out." ”

To say that it sounds good is called insufficient taxes, and to say that it is difficult to say that it is tax evasion, this is a big crime, and it only cost three hundred taels of silver to settle it, Li Yanqing was really a little surprised, there are still such people in Taixue who are good at the sky.

"What's his background?"

"He is Cai You's adopted son."

Li Yanqing suddenly turned out to be Cai Jing's godgrandson, "Did my brother bring me here just to get to know him?" ”

"It's not! There are more important people looking for you, I'm just letting you know this Sun Daya by the way.

"Brother Zheng, I really think about one thing I want to ask you for help."

"Oops! My brother, what are you doing so politely, what's the matter? As long as my brother can do it, his brows will never wrinkle. ”

"Actually, it's easy for you, my father opened a rouge shop, and he can't get into good spices......"

Without waiting for Li Yanqing to finish speaking, Zheng Rongtai patted his chest and said: "I thought it was a big deal, I will go back and get a token for you, you give it to your uncle, and ask him to go to Jingbei Incense Medicine Store to get the goods, that is our Zheng family's incense medicine store, you can have any good goods you want, and you will give it at the price, only 30% of the price of incense medicine on the market." ”

Li Yanqing was overjoyed, "Then thank you Brother Zheng!" ”

"It's a little meaning, do you want me to help you again, let Donggong also buy the rouge from your store, by the way, what is the name of your rouge shop?"

Li Yanqing got Zheng Rongtai's full help, he was embarrassed to hide it, he said in a low voice: "It's called Baoyanzhai!" ”

Zheng Rongtai was so shocked that he couldn't close his mouth, "It turns out that Baoyan Zhai was opened by your family, and my mother still praised your family's perfume for being good!" No, how did you know Master Li? ”

Zheng Rongtai reacted very quickly in these aspects, and suddenly thought of Master Li, "Master Li's surname is Li, and you are also surnamed Li, are you .......?"

Li Yanqing scolded secretly, where did this fat man go, he had to make an excuse and said: "My master knows Zhou Bangyan, and it was Zhou Bangyan who helped me pull the thread, and I actually don't know Master Li." ”

"Oh! You have promised to let Master Li accompany me for a drink. ”

"Another day! I'll ask Zhou Bangyan to arrange it again, but I want to remind you that don't pass on the secret of Baoyan Zhai to me, only you know it now. ”

"Don't worry! Brother, I will definitely keep my mouth shut. ”

'When! ’

The bell rang, the Keju game was over, and the Wenyuan team in the yellow samurai uniform defeated the Wenfa team in the blue samurai uniform 21-15, and there was a round of applause on the field.

"He's out, come with me!"

Zheng Rongtai took Li Yanqing by the hand, walked quickly to the edge of the school field, and the members of the Wenyuan team wearing yellow samurai uniforms came over and took towels to wipe their sweat.

Zheng Rongtai stepped forward and said respectfully to a young man: "Your Highness, I brought Li Yanqing here. ”

Li Yanqing was secretly surprised, there was actually a prince here, and he specially asked Zheng Fatzi to find him, who could this person be?

Li Yanqing couldn't help but look at this prince, only to see that he was about sixteen or seventeen years old, with a medium stature, a handsome face, and he was dressed in a samurai uniform, which made him even more heroic and extraordinary.

The young prince was also looking at Li Yanqing, and saw that Li Yanqing was strong and tall, with thick eyebrows and deep eyes, his nose was straight and tall like a knife, and his eyes were extremely sharp, as if he could see through himself.

The prince suddenly had a good impression in his heart, and stepped forward and said with a faint smile: "The young gentleman is Xiangzhou Xie Yuan Li Yanqing!" ”

"It's down there!" Li Yanqing replied calmly

Zheng Rongtai hurriedly pulled Li Yanqing's clothes and said in a low voice: "This is His Royal Highness King Jia, the third prince." ”

The reminder of the third prince made Li Yanqing finally remember the historical record of this person, this King Jia is Zhao Kai, who was later named King Yun, the only prince in history, it turns out that he is also studying in Taixue.

Li Yanqing hurriedly bowed and saluted, "See His Royal Highness King Jia!" ”

Zhao Kai smiled slightly, "This is not the place to talk, let's go to the teahouse and sit down!" ”

The tea house is a teahouse located in Taixue, the customers are basically too students, on the way, Li Yanqing only knew that Zhao Kai was not too a student, but occasionally came to Taixue to kick the bow, today he came to Taixue to find himself.

The group came to the teahouse, and the shopkeeper of the teahouse saw the arrival of His Royal Highness King Jia, and hurriedly surrounded the corner of the lobby with a screen, forming an independent space.

Zhao Kai smiled and waved his hand and said, "Li Shaojun, please take a seat!" ”

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

The royal family and commoners of the Song Dynasty were not as insurmountable as they were in the Ming and Qing dynasties, they were easy to get along with, and the etiquette was not strict, especially for scholars, who could basically treat each other equally.

Li Yanqing sat down opposite Zhao Kai, and Zheng Rongtai belonged to the emperor's relatives, and he also sat aside.

The shopkeeper brought him fragrant tea, Zhao Kai took a sip of tea, and said after a while: "I read Shaojun's solution paper, Shaojun's analysis of the Jurchens is moving, I want to ask Shaojun for details." ”
