Chapter 342: King of the Great Song Dynasty

Bang bang bang –

Early in the morning, there was the dull sound of a ball in the yard.

Li Kui yawned and pushed open the door, only to find that Gao Yu was steaming all over, and a leather ball was flying up and down and left and right around him like a beating note. And next to him, there was a stupid Fan Chong.

I thought that this guy betrayed everyone after he had money, but he didn't expect to appear in the yard early in the morning. There is also Ruan Xiaoer, who is also stupid.

Compared with Fan Chong, Ruan Xiaoer was a little impulsive to try, but he didn't dare to interrupt.

"How long have you been here? Has he always been like this? Li Kuinu asked Fan Chong, Gao Yu is going to enter the palace to accompany him today, for the emperor, Keju is just Zhao Xu's idea of rushing to the hospital when he is sick.

Fan Chong pouted and said, "It's been almost an hour, this ball seems to grow on him, he can kick it as much as he wants, and it hasn't fallen to the ground." This Gao Yu is really unseemly, he can't see it on weekdays, but when it's critical, he can really show his hand. ”

Yesterday, Fan Chong was very puzzled by Li Kui's recommendation of Gao Yu, Gao Yu dressed up more like a little informal on weekdays, well, a little obscene reader.

Unexpectedly, overnight, Gao Yu became a master of juju.

Li Kui knows the level of Gao Yu, this is the legend of the Chinese juju world, just like after kung fu reaches the realm, Li Kui finds that he doesn't need to boil his body on weekdays, but his body can be exercised and strengthened at all times, which is simply wonderful. Gao Yu is on the juju, and he is obviously also the top master who has reached the transformation realm. Even if you don't watch him practice on weekdays, as long as you need to, you can take it out to brighten the eyes of the blind.

"That's, don't look at how vicious my gaze is, I can see at a glance that Brother Gao's unique master temperament." Li Kui proudly praised Gao Yu.

Fan Chong didn't believe it, but he couldn't find a reason to refute it, and Keju was very popular in the capital. It is the most widely watched game on the street. In the capital, there is a large-scale Keju Society, or Keju team, that participates in performances at festivals. The famous Keju Society has Ensha, Qiyun Society, etc., all of which are first-class super teams in Beijing.

The emperor wanted a good body, but because of his immobile temperament, his appetite was very small, and his body was very thin. To put it bluntly, it's malnutrition, but Da Song doesn't say much.

Keju was a method for the emperor to try. As long as the emperor's daily exercise increases, his appetite will naturally improve, and his nutrition will be replenished.

For Gao Yu, this is his only capital to enter the officialdom.

Let him take the martial arts exam, if more than 300 people are selected for the martial arts, most of Gao Yu will still have some confidence. But the problem is that only 20 people are selected for the martial arts examination. The competition is not fierce, and a family heirloom martial artist like Li Yun, coupled with many years of practice, and the strange effect of beating him all day long with a high finger, may be able to gain a place among the martial artists.

And Gao Yu participated in martial arts, basically there was no chance at all. His stick skills are only a means in the army.

At the Royal Boxing Gym, he recognized the reality. I don't think I have any chance of being admitted to the martial arts. And the opportunity that Li Kui gave him can be said to be Gao Yu's only opportunity to become an official.

He grew so big, he never thought that Keju could also be an official.

As for whether this official is a fortunate minister or a minister, he doesn't care at all.

can be an official, what else is there to pick? He is not Li Kui, and he has a strong obsession with the identity of Jinshi.

Gao Yu showed the most exquisite skills in order to make the emperor defeat his ball skills, but Li Kui didn't care about it. Zhao Xu is not Zhao Ji, the former is an otaku, and the latter is a prodigal son. Zhao Xu doesn't even have a basic knowledge of Keju, and learning Keju is not for fun, but for exercise.

Then it is not necessary to juggle the ball, which requires strong balance and a certain level of training in the hands, eyes and body. What Gao Yu wanted to teach the emperor was the kind of preparation activities that were not dangerous, and the intensity and skill of the exercise did not require too much strength. As for the technique, forget it, the emperor may not be able to learn it in his life.

If it was Zhao Ji, if Gao Yu didn't show his superb skills, he wouldn't even have a chance to eat in the palace.

Li Kui shouted to stop Gao Yu and talked about his opinion.

Gao Yu's ball skills may be able to get a full house in the Keju Society, but it is not what he needs, or it is not what the emperor needs.

What the emperor wants is to be able to maintain a healthy amount of exercise, and such an ethereal thing as ball skills is meaningless to the emperor at all. The emperor, who can only juggle a ball, will soon lose all interest in Keju. This is the same as kicking shuttlecock, a master who can change into a flower kick, and you will never be able to experience the sadness of a novice who can only kick one.

After Gao Yu listened to Li Kui's explanation, he became anxious and hurriedly said, "This doesn't show our ability!" ”

That's right, according to Li Kui's idea, it is to let the emperor move with the ball, for example, he said, "Let Your Majesty chase the ball and jog, and the net in the middle is withdrawn, and the goal on both sides is used instead, so that you don't need too advanced skills to score goals." The pitch should not be separated by a net in the middle, and the net should be placed on both sides, so that His Majesty can increase the space for movement. Wouldn't it be better if the pitch was bigger, 50 steps long, 30 steps wide, 7 participants, and a goalkeeper. ”

"Will it cause His Majesty to be impacted?" Although Gao Yu felt that Li Kui was a bit nonsense, he would change the rules when he said he would, and he didn't respect Keju's technical essentials at all.

Li Kui felt that Gao Yu had entered a dead end, and said, "Your Majesty is on the court, who dares to hit him?" Want to die or what? For the first few days, let His Majesty run a few laps back and forth on the court, and if His Majesty's skills are likely to improve, let him learn advanced skills. If it's hard to learn the skills, why don't you just have fun with your majesty? ”

Such an improvement is a bit like the appearance of a seven-a-side football game. Fifty steps long and thirty steps wide, which is almost 70 meters long and more than 40 meters wide. For the palace, it is not a matter at all. If he can't even find such a vacant land in the palace, what hope does the Great Song Emperor have?

"On weekdays, if it rains or snows, put a ball in a net pocket and let His Majesty play the ball with the net. In this way, His Majesty will not lose interest in Keju because he can only spin the ball once at a time. ”

Of course, stand-alone games, even otaku will get tired of playing, at this time Gao Yu's peak ball skills come in handy, double kicking, no matter where the ball under His Majesty's feet flies, Gao Yu can be saved, so that His Majesty can feel the fun of kicking. Li Kui's vision includes almost all the problems that Zhao Xu can encounter.

I also didn't prepare for Gao Yu.

Of course, if Zhao Xu had the talent to play football, it would be easier. As long as Gao Yu exerts his ten-percent ability, how can Zhao Xu not be impressed by Gao Yu's ball skills?

In short, there is only one purpose, to reduce the technique of Keju, to meet the needs of the emperor's movement, not to tire the emperor, nor to make the emperor embarrassed. After allowing the emperor to ensure proper exercise, he will obtain a relatively healthier body. As long as he achieves this level, Gao Yu is a loyal minister in Zhao Xu's heart.

Gao Yu's face suddenly fell, and he sighed, "After we have been able to go out since we were more than ten years old, except for eating and going to the toilet, the ball will not fall to the ground!" ”

Fan Chong's expression was like a ghost, and he felt that he had underestimated Gao Yu's hidden attributes. At the same time, he also underestimated Li Kui's shamelessness. In order to cater to the emperor, this product simply changed the rules of Keju and modified it. What's even worse is that if the rules modified by Li Kui are adopted by the emperor, they will soon become popular in Tokyo City and even the entire Great Song Dynasty.

Regardless of that dynasty, the novelties that circulated in the palace were always the first to become popular.

Gao Yu looked at Fan Chong a little worriedly and asked, "Brother Fan, your family has been an official for generations, and you have enough experience in serving Your Majesty, do you really think that as long as Your Majesty is happy, you can let us accompany you?" ”

Originally, Fan Chong's opinion of Gao Yu was quite objective, but he was not optimistic. But Gao Yu's lack of eyesight made him secretly angry in his heart. What do you want to do? Traitor?

What is the experience of serving His Majesty, their family is a family of eunuchs, not a family of eunuchs.

The old Fan family started from Fan Zhen of his grandfather's generation, and he was not a good talker, when his grandfather was the middle of the imperial history, he was not happy with the emperor all day long, and he belonged to the iron-clad ministers, what experience can their family have? How could it be possible to follow the emperor's wishes everywhere? Their family has never had a courtier. As for his father, he has also been a royal historian for several years, and he is good at malicious slander out of nothing...... Facing Gao Yu, Fan Chong still nodded vigorously, he was afraid that after refuting it, when it came to his father's body, as a son, how could he burn the fire on his father's head, this is unfilial.

"That's true, Brother Gao, as long as Your Majesty identifies you, you will be the King of the Great Song Dynasty." Fan Chong said with a clear conscience.

"But this ball king is a fake!"

Gao Yu's words were quite resentful, and his ball skills were useless. It's like a warrior who has learned a complete dragon slaying technique, ready to surprise the situation and become famous, but let him use this skill to kill pigs, which is frustrating. Gao Yu's emotions are like this, his ball skills can become the star of the Circle Society, but he uses unpopular methods to cater to the emperor.

And under Li Kui's explanation, this kind of non-mainstream method seems to be more certain, which makes Gao Yu, who is full of kicking skills up and down, feel a little uncomfortable as if his martial arts have been abolished.

It was easy to convince Gao Yu, Li Kui only had to tell him, "Brother Gao, your task is to make the emperor think that you are useful, as long as the emperor is happy, regardless of whether you have ball skills or not, you are the king of the Great Song Dynasty." Besides, do you really think you've been playing football with Your Majesty for the rest of your life? You don't want to be an official? Don't want to be on the side? After two years, Your Majesty's body is strong, and your opportunity to become a local magistrate has also come. Even if you can't be a civil official, but what about a military general? It's always okay to be a commander, right? ”

"That's it! But there are also Keju members in the palace, right? Gao Yu's worries are groundless in Li Kui's opinion. But Gao Yu has an inexplicable excitement and yearning for being an official.

Especially the commander, it's not small. In the forbidden army, the commander was a petty officer, who had just climbed to the rank of a mid-level officer. The Great Song Dynasty military system, 500 people for one command, 3,000 people for the battalion, 10,000 people into an army. The commander is basically able to command an army of tens of thousands of people.

Such a big official, no one has ever done it for eight generations of the old Gao family. If he really becomes a commander, he will become an existence like Optimus Prime of the Gao family.

As for the captain?

Li Kui didn't dare to take it out to scare him at all!

As a lieutenant, let alone others, even Gao Yu will think that Li Kui is making fun of him.

Li Kui asked, "Senior brother, you don't have to worry that your ball skills are not as good as those miscellaneous servants in the palace, right?" ”

"How is that possible?" Gao Yu stood tall and said confidently, in the Keju world in the capital, only others obey him, and there is no one he wants to tie up at all. Of course, in the past, Gao Yu played Keju, and he must have to tie up with people to play with him.

After all, the minimum number of Keju is also two against two, and the usual regular game is seven against seven, eleven against eleven, and fourteen against fourteen.

Gao Yu's level is too high, and it is unfair to join either side, because his skills are too good, and they are not willing to take him to play. In addition, he is too young, and regular teams such as the Circle Society are reluctant to accept him. As a result, he did not embark on the path of making a living by playing football.

Speaking of which, Keju flourished in Qi from the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, and by the Song Dynasty, it already had a complete set of rules of the game.

There are more than a dozen teams in Tokyo.

However, most of the Kemari teams can only rely on the festival to earn income, but fortunately, the businesses in Tokyo are very willing to invest in the team without even advertising.

Why!

Da Song even gambles on the snacks that children eat, how can he not participate in such a promising career as gambling?

There are not only gambling balls, but also black whistles, off-board moves, and nothing is missing.

A few days later, at the New Year's Day celebrations, there was the opening ball match between the Circle Society and the Saiyun Society, which was the largest ball game in Tokyo, with the largest number of participants, and the most influential ball game in a year.

However, this year's New Year's Day Guan Po, the largest has become the Mahjong Grand Prix.

Even Li Kui, the initiator, felt that compared with Keju, the mahjong game really had no advantage at all. Maybe it will be beaten back to its original shape next year. The point is that Kemari is a game of more than 20 people on the field, and there can be hundreds, thousands, or even more people on the sidelines. The effect of group participation is an advantage that cannot be matched by other competitions. Mahjong may have a wider audience, but how many people can stand around a mahjong table?

After eating the morning food, Gao Yu rode a rented gelding with high spirits and headed towards Xuande Gate.

Leaving Li Kui, Li Yun and Fan Chong staring at each other, it was Li Kui who finally asked, "Isn't Brother Fan gone?" ”

"Entrusted by men, loyal to people. How can Fan be the kind of person who doesn't keep his word? Fan Chong said proudly.

Li Kui was puzzled: "Then why did Brother Fan move out of Master Huang's courtyard?" ”

This question, Fan Chong expressed deep pain, and said helplessly, "One of you snores, one sweats, and the rest gritted his teeth and farts, do you think I don't want to save some rent?" ”

As soon as these words came out, Li Yun's face suddenly darkened, and he said angrily, "Slander, definitely slander!" Obviously, Li Kui's snoring, sweaty feet, gritting his teeth and farting are obviously going for him.

Fan Chong looked at Li Yun with a sneer, "It's slander to say that you are sweaty and snoring, but ......"

"Needless to say." Li Yun deeply felt that Fan Chong was full of malice towards him.
