Chapter 391: Qujiang Pool
As soon as he came out of the Manna Palace, Li Feng was ready to leave the palace immediately. Anyway, for this palace compound, he Li Feng didn't have a very good feeling. If he could, really, he really didn't want to come to this place. In his own words, the place was eerie and lacked popularity.
The reason why I say this is not to say that there is no one in this palace, but that the people here are too scheming, too false, and lack that kind of peace.
However, as soon as Li Feng came out, he found that Li Chengqian was walking back and forth outside the hall. Li Feng guessed that this kid must be waiting for him.
"Oh, Fourth Uncle, why have you been in for so long."
Li Feng really guessed correctly, the other party was really waiting for him. After seeing Li Feng come out, he immediately trotted over, and the anxious look on his face disappeared a lot.
"Well, at your father's place, I had breakfast by the way. Why, you kid has something to do again. Aren't you supposed to negotiate with the Turks? You kid, you can't be lazy, right? ”
At this time, Li Feng suddenly remembered. This Li Chengqian should not seem to be here at this moment. Because of the peace talks with the Turks, Li Chengqian was nominally in charge. Now that the negotiations have begun, he should be negotiating.
"How is that possible, we are those kind of people. Today is only a preliminary contact, so it has not entered the substantive stage, so the two sides have nothing to say. No, it didn't take much effort, just a little exchange and then dispersed. Okay, Fourth Uncle, let's not talk about it, let's go, I'll take you to a fun place."
Hearing Li Feng say this, Li Chengqian immediately pretended to be aggrieved. Forthwith. After explaining the reason, he hurriedly took Li Feng away.
"Slow down, slow down, let's talk about what the place is. Your uncle and I are busy."
However, Li Feng did not immediately follow Li Chengqian, but stood there and asked Li Chengqian. He had to ask clearly, he couldn't fall into this kid's way. Besides. Although Cui Yingying is there in the store layout, he can't be completely the shopkeeper.
"My good fourth uncle, don't you know if you go along...... Well, let's go to the poetry club. I'll tell you. It's very lively, if it weren't for waiting for you, Fourth Uncle, I would have passed a long time ago. ”
Li Feng didn't move, Li Chengqian was in a hurry. There was no way, Li Chengqian could only stop and explain to Li Feng. He knew that if he didn't explain it clearly. Li Feng will definitely not go.
"Poetry Society? Hehe, I can't think of it, you kid can still write poetry? However, it is strange. Why haven't I seen your kid do poetry, or else, just this, a song on the spot? ”
Go to the poetry club. Of course, it's to recite poetry. Just, come to think of it. Li Feng suddenly looked at Li Chengqian with a wicked smile on his face and said. He really didn't know that Li Chengqian had a hobby in this area. Of course, there was more disbelief in his heart. Li Chengqian's temperament is not suitable for this kind of thing.
"Don't, Fourth Uncle, aren't you trying to embarrass me. Poetry, we don't like it. Also, who stipulates that poetry will only be given by poetry and songs. In addition to poetry, there are horse races, archery, and most importantly, polo matches. That scene was quite lively. ”
As soon as he heard that he was allowed to compose poems on the spot, Li Chengqian immediately turned into a bitter gourd face. That's not to say he won't, that's absolutely impossible. Thinking that he is a prince of a country and can't write poetry and songs, how can it be. However, as Li Feng said, he is not interested in this thing.
And in the same way, this time, his main purpose was not to watch the water poetry club, but to go to other programs. And this polo is his favorite Li Chengqian.
"Polo in the Tang Dynasty? It's a novelty. Well, by the way, isn't there another Keju? ”
Hearing the word polo, Li Feng also felt familiar. This activity was quite popular in the Tang Dynasty. Of course, by prevalence here we mean prevalence in the upper classes. In the daily life of ordinary people, there is no such thing. Because, it's a sport that costs a lot of money. Not to mention, to play polo, you need a good horse. Let's just say that the polo field is not something that ordinary people can build or can afford.
It can be said that the polo of the Tang Dynasty is equivalent to the golf ball in modern society. For ordinary people, they have often only heard or seen it, but they have never experienced it firsthand.
Thinking of polo, Li Feng immediately remembered another very famous sport in the Tang Dynasty, that is, Keju. To put it bluntly, it's the oldest football. This activity is also very popular among people.
"Keju, yes, fourth uncle, do you like Keju? Great, why don't we make a Keju team together. Ha ha...... Why didn't I think about it sooner? Let's get a Keju team, and when the time comes, bring in the brothers of the Black Tiger Army. Then, let's train again, and when the time comes, we will definitely ......."
"Alright, stop daydreaming there. Give the national flag guard of the Tang Dynasty to you as a juju team, you think it is beautiful, and you are not afraid that your father will be in a hurry with you. Okay, let's go with you today to see this Datang polo...... Let's go, lead the way."
Looking at this guy and thinking that one is one out, Li Feng was speechless for a moment. However, Li Chengqian's words reminded him. There was so little entertainment in this ancient world. If you return to the craftsman village, you can start activities such as polo and kemari. Let the big guy have nothing to do in their spare time, and play ball, which is a lively thing.
Thinking about it like this, Li Feng became even more interested in his heart, so he urged Li Chengqian to lead the way, but he wanted to go to the scene to see for himself what this so-called polo was all about.
"Oh...... Well, in fact, it's not far, it's just on the edge of the Qujiang Pond not far from the east of the city, let's ride a horse, or it won't be long before we can get there."
Although he was hit by Li Feng, Li Chengqian was still quite happy to see that Li Feng agreed to go with him to watch this polo. As for why he had to take Li Feng with him, of course, he pulled Li Feng into the water. You must know that now he Li Chengqian is shouldering a heavy responsibility. At this time, he actually left his job and ran to watch the water polo. When this matter reached Li Shimin's ears, it was conceivable that he, Li Chengqian, would have something to eat.
However, if you bring Li Feng along, then there will be no problem. As the saying goes, the sky is falling, and there are big men on top. Obviously, in his Li Chengqian's heart, Li Feng is absolutely right about a super big man. At least, with his father, Li Feng on top, he, Li Chengqian, is absolutely at ease.
Qujiang Pond, this is a famous scenic spot near Chang'an City. It is located in the southeast of Chang'an City, and is named because of the twists and turns of the water. Here, not only the scenery is beautiful, but also surrounded by water, which is breathtaking. It is also because of the many festivals every year, a large number of people gather here to play here, which makes the reputation of this place even more prosperous.
Among them, it is the Shangsi Festival as the most, whenever this festival comes, tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands of people will gather here. Let this place become full of people and lively. Of course, in addition, there are also cold food festivals, Qingming festivals, etc., and people will also choose to come here to play.
Subsequently, Li Feng and Li Chengqian rode on the horses that Li Chengqian had prepared a long time ago, and when they left Chang'an City, they galloped all the way to the direction of Qujiangchi.
Qujiang Pond is a scenic spot near Chang'an City. It's not that it's open to the public all the time. Instead, there are special personnel to guard them, and only those specific days will be open to all. And now, obviously, it is not the day when Qujiang Pond is open to the outside world.
However, there are exceptions to everything, no matter what time or generation, and this thing is called privilege. At this time, Qujiang Pool is not open to ordinary people, which is true. However, for a group of second-generation officials in Chang'an City, this Qujiang Pond is no different from their own back garden. That's when you want to come, when you want to go, you can go.
After coming to Qujiangchi, Li Feng and Li Chengqian both dismounted. At this time, someone immediately ran forward quickly and carefully took the reins from Li Feng's hands, looking nervous and excited. It's just that there is a trace of doubt hidden in the eyes that look at Li Feng.
"Hehe, it seems that your kid is also a frequent visitor here."
Walking all the way in, Li Feng remembered the eyes of those people just now, and said to Li Chengqian with a smile. Li Feng didn't think that they were so nervous and excited because of their arrival. Li Feng is very self-aware of his popularity. It can be said that in the entire Chang'an City, walking on the street and touching it, there are definitely only a handful of people who can recognize themselves.
Since it wasn't because of himself, of course, people recognized Li Chengqian.
"Hehe, if there's any activity here, I'll go here if it's okay. Staying in the palace is indeed too boring. Come here and watch them race horses, play polo, and juju, and it's a little more interesting. It's a pity that I can only watch from a distance every time, hey......"
Li Chengqian, who was talking about a good job, suddenly looked at his right foot, and said with a lonely and sad face.
"Alright, don't think about it. You don't have to worry, my uncle is currently working on this surgical matter. I think it won't be long before he has a way to help you get rid of it. It's not a serious illness, it's not congenital, so you can relax."
Seeing Li Chengqian looking at his disabled right leg, and then looking at his expression, how could Li Feng not know what he was thinking. So, he comforted him and said.
However, speaking of Sun Simiao, Li Feng remembered that this medical madman uncle, after staying in the palace for a long time, ran away again, and it has been a long time now.
"It's okay fourth uncle, I'm living a good life now. It would be nice if this leg could be cured, and then I would be able to play polo again, play Kemari, or if I had the chance, I would be able to go to war. Even if it really can't be cured, so what. Fourth uncle, don't you often say that if you have a good attitude, you can do anything. I'm okay now, haha."
"The child can be taught, haha......"
Seeing that Li Chengqian was just suddenly sad, he was relieved to be wasted. So, the two of them began to talk and laugh, and walked forward.
