Great Tang princess

Chapter 685 Before the game
In Jixian Temple, the whole family sat together, staring at the plate of melon seeds in front of them in a daze.

Liu Zihe brought back a lot of sunflower seeds this time, this plate of sunflower seeds was brought back by Li Yuechen and shared with his family after frying.

Because the ancients had never seen this thing, they didn't know how to eat it.

Li Yuechen explained while demonstrating: "Look, use your front teeth to break open the outer skin, and eat the inner seeds directly. But don't eat too much on weekdays, it's easy to get angry."

After her demonstration, the brothers and sisters looked at each other, and then they all reached out to try it.

In fact, the taste of melon seeds is just that, not a delicacy.

But for the ancients, after all, this is a very novel thing. After eating it, they all said that the taste is quite good.

After Wu Zetian ate it, he licked his lips: "This thing, watching You Lian's performance on weekdays, is also a pastime..."

Good guy, my mother is worthy of being a mother. I understood the soul of this thing when I ate it for the first time.

In the future, I don’t know how many people lie on the sofa every day watching soap operas and eating melon seeds, which is a relatively simple way of pastime.

Any athlete in the world knows that friendship comes first and competition comes second...except for the West Eight Nations.

No wonder there is an old saying that the poor live with treachery, and the rich grow with a conscience.

For example, sisters Li Shu and Li Linghui must come over one, and brothers Li Shouli and Li Shouyi must also come over...

Coupled with the cold weather in the Northeast, the hair is too long and hot in summer and difficult to take care of in winter, so the hairstyle is extremely wild.

Now not only did he not have a smooth beard on his chin, but his hair was also cut directly like a wolf's tail and tied into a small braid.

No one knew what it was, so by August [-]th, only about half of the tickets had been sold.

Anyway, the first time has passed, and with experience, the second time will be easier.

Then you can consider bringing more people, or even board two ships, so that you can bring back more things.

"In the competition, there are people, officials, and foreign envoys...you bear the glory of the country on your shoulders, and you must shine the glory of the country in the competition, so that the saints can be proud of you."

……

As soon as she spoke, the members of the football team stood at attention and saluted in unison.

On August 21, two huge airships painted with shark patterns landed on Xuanwumen Square one after the other.

Anyway, it is a random combination of various colored lines crossing back and forth.

"Instead of worrying about being a mother, it's better to persuade you brother." Wu Zetian smiled slightly.

Then I calculated it with Princess Xuancheng. Although only half of the tickets were sold, the income was already considerable.

But no matter what, many people who came to inquire still paid for the tickets on the spot according to their financial ability.

Speaking of it, this was actually the first meeting between soldiers from different military regions.

Recently, he has lost a lot of weight. Before he became a prince, he was really fat.

……

Listening to the nouns that came out of Li Yuechen's mouth, Li Xian displayed his curious baby's mentality again: "What is that?"

In fact, this kind of thing will not happen, because this kind of game is the first time.

A game is a game, and you can't intentionally hurt people because of a game. This is a very disgusting behavior in the circle of athletes.

Hearing her answer, Li Longji grinned happily, it seemed that he could still make his aunt proud.

Li Shu, Liu Huang and others came over to salute Li Yuechen, while the team members behind looked at each other with vigilant eyes.

After the tickets are settled, they are sold and distributed.

Li Yuechen personally greeted them at Xuanwumen, and to his surprise, Li Longji was also among them.

Today's bookstores are efficient and print simple tickets in no time.

Because of the existence of the telegram, Chang'an also knew about this matter, and many officials in Chang'an drove over in a carriage overnight, planning to go to the scene to watch.

Li Yuechen put the tickets at various newspaper outlets. At the same time, in order to prevent scalpers from appearing, he asked the police to send people to watch, and each person was limited to three tickets.

Although it is said that they are all soldiers under the princess, they are not familiar with each other.

Now Li Xian is used to being shot from time to time, he doesn't even bother to refute, just grabs the melon seeds and eats them one by one as if he didn't hear.

For a powerful family or a dude, this is all small money, and it is nothing to worry about.

Many officials even felt that the carriage was too slow, so they rode wildly on their own, for fear that they would lose their tickets if they arrived late.

At the same time, Li Yuechen was also thinking about whether he could go to South America in person if he had the opportunity in the future.

The other soldiers are similar, even the Han people are easily influenced by foreign customs over there, so they can be more relaxed in this regard.

If you think about it carefully, my mother has always been self-disciplined, so there will definitely be no problems.

If Li Longji's progress is a little crazy, then Liu Huang's side is even more wild.

It can't even be called a ponytail anymore, it's just a little braid.

In fact, just take this kind of talk as a joke. People can indeed explode with terrifying potential in a crisis situation, but it's not that simple.

So they are all looking at each other while thinking about tactics.

Of course, when buying a ticket, you can directly say that you want seats with consecutive numbers.

But according to the newspaper, this is the Cuju team of the military region, and the rules are different, which makes people itch.

Although the final result of this matter is controversial in the sports world, most people feel that it was because the opponent couldn't bear that they were all killed in the end and deliberately lost the game.Not because their potential was forced out.

Li Yuechen smiled: "Aniang remember, don't eat too much, or you will get angry."

Li Yuechen clapped his hands and came to the crowd, and said loudly: "Okay, all eyes are on Ben Gong!"

Having said that, Li Yuechen drew their attention to himself, just to give them a vaccination in advance.

It is still made of ordinary rice paper, but a variety of colors are used for printing, and the lines of different colors overlap each other to form a mysterious pattern.

It's already August now, and the Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon, and the harvest of autumn grain is almost done, so the competition date can be set at the end of August.

The rest are the two sides and the south, and all these places rely on ticket sales.

Li Yuechen also directly divided ten districts based on the seats at the scene, and then asked them to take their seats according to the seats at the scene.

To be honest, it’s okay to have a look at Cuju, but it’s a bit too much to sell tickets and collect money.

Not to mention the sports circle, this is why many athletes do not want to compete with the West Eight Nations athletes on the same stage.

But this question is just a matter of thinking. After all, the journey is far away, and it takes several years to go back and forth. If something happens and I am away, it will be a lot of fun.

In this way, the ball game gradually attracted the attention of the whole city.

On August [-]th, the Mid-Autumn Festival, once the newspapers went on sale, everyone in the city knew that there would be a Cuju competition at the end of the month.

All the soldiers answered in unison: "Understood!"

At that time, let the data side print a batch of tickets, sell some of them, and then send some to the ministers and foreign envoys in the eastern capital.

In this era when the average person has not experienced the impact of abstract art, this kind of thing will look high-end and elegant.

On both sides of the stadium, the lowest price is only ten Kaiyuan Tongbao, the price gap is too big.

"During the game, you can do whatever you want, but you can't intentionally hurt people...Respect the game and respect the opponent."

In fact, Li Yuechen doesn't even know how much money he has now, nor has he cared about this issue.

In fact, Li Yuechen couldn't understand the meaning of this pattern, but as long as it looked visually impressive, it was enough.

Generally speaking, it is a bit longer than the inch head, but it is estimated that I cut it with scissors directly. It has no shape at all, and it looks like it has been chewed by a dog.

"It's useless to explain. If there is a chance in the future, let's organize someone to go." Li Yuechen smiled.

"Respect the rules of the game and enjoy the game with your heart! Do you understand?"

At that time, if you play gambling again, you can make a lot of money again.

After Li Yuechen greeted Liu Huang and the others, seeing the expressions between the players on both sides, he knew that he had to do something, otherwise something might go wrong.

Li Yuechen felt that it was possible to warm up the newspapers on August [-]th, at least let the public know that there is such a thing.

In some cases, these words still make a lot of sense.

If you look at it from the front, it feels a bit like the hairstyle of a future traffic star.

Li Yuechen grinned: "Don't worry, my aunt still trusts you!"

There used to be a lot of similar stalks on the Internet, as long as there is a tiger chasing after them, ordinary people can surpass the world long-distance running champion...

However, the soldiers on the northern border all wore thicker beards. After all, the weather was cold, and thicker beards also had the effect of keeping out the cold.

As for the other ministers, their rank would definitely not reach the point where the emperor gave them directly, and it was impossible to give them on the spot.

And Li Yuechen prepared some tickets for the senior military officers.

When I came to the sales point and kissed, I found that the ticket price was different.

"Clap clap clap..."

After thinking about it, many people still feel that it is better to ask how much it is before talking.

After buying, compare the different details on the tickets with each other.

It's not that there are no good athletes in that country, but the environment is doomed that even if there are good athletes, there is no chance to stand out at all!
It's like football in a country with a population of more than one billion... Don't get me wrong, this is India.

This kid has a good athletic talent since he was a child, and it is very possible that he can enter the football team with his strength.

……

"Yes, it's just that they weren't fully prepared in the past this time, so they could only search along the coastline. In fact, there are strawberries, dragon fruit, cocoa and other crops..."

As he spoke, he rewarded each of the cabinet ministers with a few tickets.

But many of his soldiers are not Han Chinese, no matter what your parents say about your body, hair and skin.

It should be said that any athlete with a conscience should have such a concept.

What's more, this time it's for the competition. To put it bluntly, they are all opponents.

The ultimate goal of getting these is for the economic development of the country.

Many people don't know that in a certain World Cup, the ruler of a certain country said to the football players at that time, "This time, if you win this game, you will give tickets and girls. But if you lose, it will be a gun."

The captain of the football team he brought had the appearance of a foreigner, his hair was not even tied with a whip, and was directly cut with scissors into a cropped style.

Princess Yiyang was a little curious: "Chen'er, are there other crops in South America?"

After careful observation, Li Longji, who entered the special forces, became much stronger than before.

Representative teams from all major military regions have come.

The position with the best view in the fifth row actually costs a lot of money, and other positions are getting cheaper and cheaper.

Because I have received new-style education since I was a child, I am not very interested in Confucianism.

"Brother Yang, take a quick look, here I say No. 12, Fifth Row, Ding District, how about Brother Yang?"

Needless to say, Liu Huang hasn't been back for so many years, and I'd be sorry if I didn't take this opportunity to come back and have a look.

Seeing his respected aunt looking at him since childhood, Li Longji quickly explained: "Aunt Mingjian, my nephew didn't overwhelm others with power, he came in with his real strength."

In order for Prince Li Xian to show his face, Wu Zetian also asked him to reward some ministers.

"You have to remember! Competition is a war with rules. So, be upright! Be respectful to yourself and your opponent!"

But for ordinary people, although it is not impossible to take out more than a dozen Kaiyuan Tongbao, in line with the principle of saving what can be saved, I still plan to wait and see first.

The handwriting on the ticket is clearly printed and everyone can see it clearly.

At least the top officials of each military region still have to show their faces.

Liu Huang himself is fine, after all, he was raised by Confucianism when he was a child.

The emperor himself acted as the spokesperson, and said in the court hall: "On the 26th of this month, Taiping will hold a match at the football field outside the city, and invites me to go and watch it. I feel that it is better for all the ministers to go together, so I will ask for some tickets. Aiqing can go with her family..."

We all know that the army has been reformed now, but what does the army look like after the reform? Maybe we can take advantage of this competition to find out?

After all, it is really rare for an event where the emperor is present in person.

Li Yuechen didn't go out these few days, just listening to the servant's report in the princess mansion.

A group of people from the military and a group of people from the imperial court almost filled most of the seats on the north side of the stadium.

But the old brother is different, otherwise, he wouldn't be the fattest one in the family.

This also led to the fact that although August [-]th was the weather for appreciating the moon, horse-drawn carriages were running fast on the expressway between Chang'an and Dongdu.

"Oh? I'm No. 24, Seventh Row, Geng District. I think the price is cheaper..."

Of course, it's too far away to think about it now. The first thing to do now is to hold the first national football competition well.

"Very good!" Li Yuechen nodded, "I will be in the stands and watch your game with the saint. I will also applaud all of you for your wonderful performance!"

After speaking, he raised his hand and shook his fist at them, and then pulled Liu Huang, Li Shu and others away.

The team members from different military regions behind them were still full of gunpowder when they looked at each other.

Only this time, there was already a smile on his face.
