"Hey, Prince Chu is back!" Someone suddenly said.

When he turned around, he saw Chu Ze walking towards him with a cheerful face.

He looked around and asked, "My lords, are you enjoying yourself?"

"Hey, thank you for your hospitality, Your Majesty." Everyone quickly stood up and bowed their hands.

Chu Ze waved his hand and said with a smile: "You're welcome, we are all our own people. I still have some things to do, so I won't accompany you any longer. I hope you will come on time for tomorrow's game."

"That's natural! Prince, please rest assured, we will be there on time to witness this grand event!" Everyone said in unison.

Chu Ze nodded with satisfaction and winked at Li Xing beside him.

Li Xing understood and hurriedly ordered to go down and arrange the accommodation of the officials.

The banquet gradually dispersed, and the moon was in the sky.

Chu Ze sat quietly in the study alone, thinking about tomorrow's arrangements in his mind.

"Tomorrow's battle is related to the reputation of Fengyang and the sports ground, and more importantly to my prestige among the people." Chu Ze thought secretly: "It must be done in a glorious manner, so that those officials can see Fengyang's style and promote the future." Any policy would be easier.”

At dawn, Chu Ze was already in high spirits and led a group of subordinates to the arena.

I saw colorful flags flying and crowds of people on the field.

People gathered outside the venue early in the morning to witness this grand event.

"Prince Chu is here!"

"Give way, give way, it will be convenient for the prince!"

The people gave way one after another, and Chu Ze walked towards the sports ground to speak with his head held high and under the attention of everyone.

On the podium, officials from all over the country have already taken their seats.

Seeing Chu Ze arriving, they hurriedly stood up to greet him.

"See you, my lord!"

"Your Majesty is here, please be quiet!"

Chu Ze nodded with a smile and sat down at the top.

He looked around and saw black crows all around the stadium filled with spectators, all of whom came to watch the game.

In the field, the participating riders are also ready to go, and all of them are high-spirited.

"Everyone be quiet!" Chu Ze stood up and waved to the audience.

Suddenly, everything fell silent.

"Dear fellow villagers, thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule to come and watch the race." Chu Ze said with a loud voice: "Today's Fengyang first bicycle race is not only a sports competition, but also a brand-new event for our Ming Dynasty. A portrait of style!”

The audience burst into cheers that lasted for a long time.

"The current Holy One is working hard to govern, promote culture and teach. As a member of the Ming Dynasty and the guardian of Fengyang, I, Chu Ze, must live up to my mission and dedicate myself to the development of Fengyang and the education of children!"

"Okay! With a good official like Prince Chu, there is hope for Fengyang!" The people cheered.

Chu Ze looked pleased and continued: "You all still remember that a few days ago, Ding Weishan and Jiang Jiangkai tried to destroy our school. They tried to hinder Fengyang's development, but in the end they shot themselves in the foot. He was severely punished by the court and was sent to the army! "

"Evil thief! Don't die a good death!" Several curses rang out from the crowd.

Chu Ze changed his tone and said: "But everyone, although Ding Weishan and Jiang Jiangkai are exceptions, they are by no means special! There are so many crooked ways like them who use power to bully the people and are ambitious!"

The officials' hearts tightened and they looked at each other.

Chu Ze's words seemed to have something to say. Chu Ze glanced at all the officials with a burning gaze, and said meaningfully: "Looking at today's officialdom, there are many people who are corrupt, bend the law, and deceive superiors and subordinates. These people appear to be sanctimonious on the surface, but in fact they are greedy for profit. They do not want to make progress, do not do their job properly, and just do nothing. How can you care about the suffering of the people when you know how to enrich your own pockets?”

He slapped the table and said in a voice like a bell: "My lords, we are all parents of one parent. Have you ever thought about why Ding Weishan and Jiang Jiangkai went astray? Isn't it because they grew up doting on each other and never suffered hardships? , tired."

"But what about our Fengyang children? They have worked hard since childhood and lived a hard-working life. When they grow up, they will naturally have kind thoughts and be diligent."

The officials were stunned, as if they had never thought about this problem.

Yes, the reason why the children of aristocratic families are pampered is not because of the pampering and pampering of their parents? And the reason why those children from ordinary families are simple and kind-hearted is not because of the hardships of life and the teachings of their parents?

Everyone had mixed feelings in their hearts, and they couldn't help but sit down.

Seeing this, Chu Ze took advantage of the victory and pursued the victory: "My lords, have you ever thought about why the people support me so much? Because I have done practical things for them! Building schools and opening sports fields are all for the benefit of children and teaching and educating people! "

"I, Chu Ze, only wish to transform the people into a secular society and share weal and woe with the people. How can I associate with those who deceive the world and steal their reputation?"

All the officials nodded frequently and were secretly shocked.

This prince of Chu Ze is really full of witty words, every word is like a pearl.

If it were left to them, I'm afraid they wouldn't even be able to say it, let alone win the hearts and minds of the people.

"Everyone, in today's competition, I ask you to judge fairly and enforce the law impartially." Chu Ze said seriously: "The contestants are all civilians, and there is no need to be biased because of their status. The ranking of the competition will be based entirely on ability!"

"No!" All the officials hurriedly bowed in response.

Chu Ze nodded with satisfaction and said loudly: "Okay! Now, let us kick off Fengyang's first bicycle competition with the warmest applause!"

The whole audience burst into cheers that lasted for a long time.

The contestants are all gearing up and eager to try.

Chu Ze glanced at the five hundred riders present. They were all strong and energetic.

These are all skilled craftsmen selected from the private sector. They all have excellent riding skills and are eager to show off their skills in competitions.

"Okay! I announce that the preliminaries will begin now!" Chu Ze said loudly: "More than five hundred contestants, each batch of fifty people, are divided into ten groups. The top ten in each group will enter tomorrow's competition. The main race!”

After hearing this, the players were all high-spirited and eager to try.

With an order, the first batch of fifty players filed in and lined up in front of the white line.

"ready, go!"

Following the referee's order, fifty bicycles flew out like arrows.

The players chase each other and sprint hard on the track.

"Come on, Lao Wang! You must enter the main competition!" Someone in the crowd shouted and cheered.

"Quick! Lao Li, you can't lose to the next village!" Another person shouted hoarsely.

There were occasional exclamations from the crowd.

"Come on! Lao Zhang, you can't lose!"

"Old Chen, you must take first place!"

The people cheered and cheered for the players in their village or their relatives and friends.

On the field, the players are chasing each other and the competition is fierce.

After a while, the first batch of runners crossed the finish line.

The judges were busy recording the results and quickly selected the top ten. (End of chapter)
