Northern Song Dynasty: Starting from the son of Song Renzong

Chapter 120: His Royal Highness Prince Yu, as if he had the wisdom of an adult
When Han Qi read this letter, he naturally didn't believe it, as it was written by a six-year-old child.

But when Ouyang Xiu saw it, he thought, that's right! That's it! His Royal Highness Prince Yu used this tone when he scolded people!
Seeing Han Qi looking at him in confusion, Ouyang Xiu also asked: "Why? What are you confused about?"

Immediately afterwards...

Ouyang Xiu also had a look of sudden enlightenment on his face, and said, "You don't know, when His Royal Highness Prince Yu scolds people, he scolds like this! This is normal!"

Han Qi: “…”

Ouyang Xiu: "You probably think that His Royal Highness Prince Yu is only six years old and it is impossible for him to say such vulgar words. In fact... he speaks so vulgarly, and... His Royal Highness Prince Yu is now the Minister of Military Affairs. All the affairs of the Song Dynasty, big or small, must be approved by him."

"Well, you can't really treat him like a six-year-old kid."

After listening to Ouyang Xiu's explanation, Han Qi still felt that this was too outrageous!

Han Qi even began to suspect whether Ouyang Xiu in front of him was a spy of Li Yuanhao of Western Xia.

Then detain the Ouyang Xiu in front of us first, and write a letter to the emperor. I will produce a fake Ouyang Xiu and ask the emperor whether the real Ouyang Xiu is in Kaifeng City, and whether the letter is authentic.

of course!

Han Qi thought afterwards that if it was really Li Yuanhao, he probably would not do such a thing with so many mistakes.

He said to the fake Ouyang Xiu: "Uncle Yong, tell me about the current situation of the court."

Ouyang Xiu still didn't know what Han Qi was thinking.

He asked with a puzzled look: "What's the situation at the court?"

Han Qi said, "I have been in the frontier for a long time. Who is in charge of the court now?"

Ouyang Xiu then said: "Zhang Dexiang, Yan Shu, and Fu Bi."

Seeing Han Qi still looking at him, Ouyang Xiu said, "Mr. Du, that is Du Yan. I, Yu Jing, Wang Su, and Cai Xiang all work under His Royal Highness the Prince of Yu, and have also participated in some political affairs."

Han Qi then asked, "Du Yan?"

Ouyang Xiu: “Yes!”

Han Qi asked, "What are you doing under the command of His Royal Highness Prince Yu?"

Ouyang Xiu said, "The emperor didn't say it at the beginning. Anyway, he just told us that you should all follow Prince Yu from now on. That's all he said. After that, we were probably more like advisors. If there was anything, His Royal Highness Prince Yu would ask us, and if there were some things, His Royal Highness Prince Yu would also let us handle them."

Good guy!
Originally, Prince Yu was only six years old. Even if the emperor gave him the title of Pingzhang Jun Guoshi, probably no one would think that the emperor really wanted Prince Yu to be Pingzhang Jun Guoshi.

But now...

After hearing what Ouyang Xiu said, Han Qi became a little uncertain again.

So he asked Ouyang Xiu, "What kind of person is His Royal Highness Prince Yu?"

Ouyang Xiu couldn't help but frowned and replied, "I haven't been with His Royal Highness Prince Yu for a long time. I can only say that he can basically do everything that His Highness can do, such as reading memorials."

"Then, scolding people is a bit ruthless. In terms of employing people, Zhang Kang and Teng Zongliang are now working under him, specifically responsible for the reclamation of land from Xuchang to Nanyang."

"In addition, I recruited a lot of other people last year. In total, I have about 30 to 40 people under my command."

"He was a man who would not indulge others. The Chief Censor Wang Gongchen threatened to demote himself in order to get the government to severely punish Zhang Kang and Teng Zongliang. As a result, he was demoted to work as a clerk at the Guangzhou Maritime Customs the next day."

"It can be said that... he is very strong and has a temperament that is the opposite of the official."

"In short... he is a good swearer and a chatterbox. But he is very experienced in handling affairs. Even reading memorials and making important decisions are no problem for him. Every morning, what Du Gong and I have to do is to accompany him to read memorials."

Han Qi also asked: "What about the emperor?"

Ouyang Xiu said, "The government should also watch it."

Han Qi listened to what Ouyang Xiu said.

It feels like the sky is falling.

What kind of world is this!
Starting to deal with military affairs at the age of six?
Is this reasonable?

Seeing that Han Qi still found it hard to accept, Ouyang Xiu also said: "Your Highness Prince Yu, you seem to have the wisdom of an adult."

Once you say this.

This made Han Qi even more speechless.

……

Zhao Xin also sneezed.

By the way, who is talking bad about him behind his back?
When Xiaodie and Xiaotao saw him sneeze, they immediately called the imperial physician. When Ouyang Xiu went to see Han Qi, Zhao Xin also went out and rode slowly.

I think we should arrange a horse-drawn tram for the five-kilometer journey to the football field.

Because five kilometers is still a bit far to be honest.

If the horse-drawn carriages were not arranged, I feel that no one would be willing to watch it.

Of course!
For example, in the future, this football field will probably only be able to host one or two games during its rest periods.

During normal working hours, who would have time to watch the game?

Also, during festivals.

This is not a big problem.

after all……

The time for festivals in the Song Dynasty was far ahead of that in other dynasties.

Then there is the question of how to promote it.

For this first game, he must choose a holiday, and then bring his father and even Mrs. Miao along.

But Madam Miao probably doesn't like watching this kind of thing.

Although there were women in the Song Dynasty who liked Cuju, it is estimated that not everyone liked it.

For example, your Majesty might like Cuju more than Madam Miao.

After all, the queen comes from a military family.

And there is...

You have to make this football game more exciting.

You must have an introduction to this player.

You need to have a commentary.

Too bad there's no microphone.

Anyway...

After Zhao Xin arrived at the stadium that had been initially built, he began to feel a headache.

Because there is so much to accomplish.

Also, how can we fully mobilize the enthusiasm of the people?
really!

It certainly won’t work if we don’t hold the league.

and……

Only in this way can we select high-level players layer by layer.

There will be a final at the end, which will make the competition more exciting.

Zhao Xin felt that this football match might be held in the near future.

As for the players...

Civilian teams can be formed at will.

By then, I will offer some bonus as an incentive, and I believe there will be people willing to sign up, right?

This will also benefit the surrounding neighbors.

after all……

If your neighbor Ergou is participating in a Cuju competition, you have to go and see how Ergou is doing and whether he is embarrassing the neighbors.

If it were me, I might have to form a Cuju team.

Get some special training.

We have to play all the football cooperation to show the wisdom and charm of this sport.
