The Prodigal Son of Zhenguan

Such scenes are being played out in different places.

Since there is such a serious competition, it is still attracting everyone's attention, and many people are eager to try it.

Polo is originally a popular sport, the most fashionable sport at the moment.

Now there is a formal competition.

It is still managed by the emperor himself.

If you play polo well, you can also get honors.

This, who wouldn't be confused after hearing this?

"It's okay, but to form a polo team, there are a lot of things to prepare, which is different from the usual play for a few of us."

"Yes, and on weekdays, we have to play often for training. Otherwise, there are many good polo players in Chang'an City. If we don't prepare seriously, we will be eliminated in one round. How embarrassing."

There were people in Chang'an City who had originally formed a polo team, and they were even more excited after hearing this news.

It was just fun on weekdays, but now, there is such a way to play?

Great.

Polo is a sport that is enjoyed by the nobles. After learning about the Chang'an Cup Polo Tournament, they became even more enthusiastic about it. They gathered their people to discuss how to train the polo team.

What else should be prepared for the tournament?

The news of the Chang'an Cup spread more and more widely. The construction of the stadium has not started yet, but the Chang'an Cup has already been known to everyone.

For the people in Chang'an City and the surrounding areas, it is also a happy event.

First, they can work and earn money to support their families. Second, it is said that after the stadium is built, the cheapest ticket will only cost one penny.

Watch a polo match for one penny?

Watch the game with the nobles in Chang'an City?

This is something that I would never have thought of before.

There is such a good thing.

The artisan supervisor recruited workers and recruited a thousand people on the first day.

Most of the people who signed up were idle people in Chang'an City, and some of them had a few acres of thin land outside the city, but because of the locust plague, the harvest was poor, so they had to work to earn money.

The recruitment of workers by the Crafts Supervisor was divided into several days, otherwise, it would be full in one day.

The main purpose was to leave opportunities for people from other counties outside Chang'an City. After the notice was posted, they had only received the news and were on their way to Chang'an City.

By the afternoon of the next day, those who wanted to come had already arrived in Chang'an City, and then another thousand people would be recruited.

Wait until the third day, and then recruit all the rest, and it would be enough.

Now everyone in Chang'an City is discussing the upcoming construction of the arena.

Even the palace knows about it.

On this day, Li Shimin was free and happened to think of the outside talk, so he went directly to Da'an Palace to have tea with his father.

Although Li Yuan didn't care about things, after all, this matter was done under his name, and he still knew the news.

The two people who left Da'an Palace and were taken away by Shitou stayed in the manor for about three days before returning.

The matter itself was not that complicated. Li Fu explained everything that needed to be said and taught everything that needed to be taught, and then let them return to Da'an Palace and return to Li Yuan's side.

Therefore, these two people were also familiar with the outside matters about the stadium and the Chang'an Cup competition.

No matter what questions Li Yuan had, they could answer them.

The recent news about the construction of the stadium outside, including the opinions of the common people, were also passed to Da'an Palace through them.

Since Li Yuan selected these two people to be sent to the manor for Li Fu to teach, it also means that these two people have been trusted by Li Yuan, and there is no need to worry about them making up lies.

Moreover, can they make up lies to cover up such a big commotion in Chang'an City?

When Li Shimin arrived at Da'an Palace, the eunuchs in Da'an Palace told Li Shimin that the emperor was fishing by the lake.

Recently, Li Yuan has taken to fishing. A group of fish have been specially raised in the lake of Da'an Palace. A pavilion has been built on the spot where Li Yuan used to sit by the lake for Li Yuan to fish.

Now, no matter whether the weather is good or not, as long as Li Yuan wants to come and sit in the pavilion, he can catch fish comfortably.

Li Shimin led people to the lake again and ordered the eunuchs of Da'an Palace to send tea to the lake.

Li Shimin saw from a distance that the emperor was sitting in the pavilion by the lake with a fishing rod, staring at the lake intently.

Let Wang De and other eunuchs wait not far away, and Li Shimin walked forward himself.

"Your son greets you, father." Li Shimin bowed.

"Erlang? How come you have time to come here? Sit down." Li Yuan greeted.

"I am free today, and I want to come to my father's place and ask for a cup of tea." Li Shimin smiled.

The jasmine tea of ​​Jiuyin was no longer in his palace, but the stock in Da'an Palace must be enough.Amount.

Li Fu that bastard!!!

"Hahaha, you come for tea?" Li Yuan smiled: "Tell me, what's the matter?"

"Father, you misunderstood me. I just want to come to you for tea and chat." Li Shimin said: "It's rare to have a moment to relax. Today's government affairs are done."

"So, that's good. Being an emperor is not an easy job, especially for you, Erlang. You have great ambitions and want to make the Tang Dynasty better. There are many difficulties." Li Yuan smiled and said: "It's easy to be an emperor or a tyrant, like Emperor Yang of Sui. You just do whatever you want, but it's hard to be a good emperor. You may not be able to do what you want."

Soon, the eunuch came over with tea.

"Father, do you want to take a break?" Li Shimin asked.

Li Yuan smiled.

"Fishing requires patience. Sitting here is a kind of rest. If the fish doesn't bite, I won't waste my energy."

Li Shimin sat next to Li Yuan and personally brought tea to the small table next to him.

"Did father hear about the discussion about the stadium?"

"I heard it." Li Yuan smiled and said, "It's a good thing. Let's discuss it. Building this without corvée is good for the people. I'm not afraid of them discussing it. Let them discuss it. It's good for the reputation of the court."

"These days, the discussion outside has also spread to Da'an Palace." Li Yuan smiled and said, "I don't care about anything else. I just have fun. Just like Huairen said, I'm so old. What I care about is whether my life is happy or not. I've been busy all my life. When I get old, it's time to enjoy myself. At this age, what's wrong with enjoying myself?"

Hearing this, Li Shimin smiled.

Father has been really different in the past two years.

What a good attitude.

"The Arena, the Chang'an Cup, these things are Huairen's love for me. As for the comments brought about by these things, they are beneficial to the court, and Erlang can make more use of them. It doesn't matter." Li Yuan smiled and said, "I don't care about so much. Now, I just want to see the grand occasion of the Chang'an Cup."
