Chapter 28 Cuju contestants thank you!

"Mr. Shen, you are so kind to me!" Li Zhi took out a small bag and said with a smile.

Shen An took a quick look and saw, wasn't this the bag he had given to Eunuch Xu?

Li Zhi took a piece of rock candy and put it in his mouth: "Your rock candy saved my life!"

"That day at the Manlu Hall, I had an asthma attack, coughing and wheezing, and almost died. I ate two pieces of rock candy and I immediately felt better."

"It would be great if it could relieve His Highness's illness!"

Shen Anxin said, yes!

How could he forget this most crucial point!

Rock sugar can relieve cough and asthma, moisten the lungs and resolve phlegm. It can cure gas-related diseases and is just right for the symptoms.

The so-called qi disease can be regarded as a general term in traditional Chinese medicine. Cough, asthma, and wind dizziness all belong to the category of qi disease.

Based on Shen An's understanding, he only believed that Li Zhi's symptoms were due to hereditary hypertension. As a child, he was thin and tall, so he should not have suffered from the disease.

But judging from the current situation, Li Zhi's Qi disease is much more complicated than he imagined.

It's early spring now, and Li Zhi's slightly red and swollen face reminds Shen An of a possibility.

Perhaps Li Zhi also suffered from hay fever, and the hay fever also induced asthma.

Therefore, the rock candy he donated could work and alleviate Li Zhi's condition. He suddenly had an idea to open up sales and treat diseases and save people at the same time. Maybe it was just one move.

"Mr. Shen, I heard that you made this with your own hands. Please pack more for me this time." Li Zhi chewed the rock candy, not forgetting to act coquettishly.

"If the decoction can be as sweet as this rock candy, I will definitely drink it on time!"

Facing his request, Shen An nodded desperately.

"It's natural."

Eat, eat, eat more. It is best to let everyone in the palace know that rock sugar has miraculous health effects, and sales will be better.

Li Zhi explained with a smile: "Your Highness, this rock candy can not only be chewed, it can also be used for cooking, and the effect will be better when paired with different ingredients."

"Really?" Li Zhi said in surprise.

"Of course, if His Highness wants to eat, I will personally cook for the banquet and show His Highness my skills."

"Mr. Shen is really thoughtful!"

Even though Li Zhi called Shen An out this time just to dig a hole for him, the little kid couldn't help but look forward to it when it came to delicious food.

Shen An looked at Li Zhi's cunning face, and sure enough, this was a golden egg that could make money.

It didn't take long for the carriage to go before Prince Jin's Mansion arrived. The two families were not far apart in the first place.

Shen An got off the carriage and immediately saw a familiar figure. He stopped and felt embarrassed.

"Erlang!" He shouted, and although his voice was hearty, it was full of doubts. What made Fang Yiai even more confused was that when he saw Shen An, he understood a little bit.

He came up to him with a smile: "Mr. Shen! Why are you here too?"

"His Majesty hosted a banquet and specially invited me. What about you?"

"Similarly, before I woke up this morning, the carriage arrived at the door of the house. I, Aye, was not at home either. Several people were making a noise, saying that His Highness Prince Jin invited me to come to the house, so I came." Fang Yiai His voice was very low, and his dissatisfaction was clearly evident in his words.

He has a straightforward temperament, and shows his emotions on his face, unlike Shen An, who can be conceited and pretend to be angry. Seeing Li Zhi approaching, Shen An quickly waved his hand to tell him to shut up. Fang Yiai curled his lips and didn't care.

He is fearless. Even in front of Li Zhi, he can still say such things.

Shen An was afraid that he would cause trouble and kept watching him.

Li Zhi stood by the car and saw clearly the situation between the two of them. He walked over slowly and said with a smile: "The banquet will only start in the evening. I will entertain you two during the day."

"Pheasant slave heard that the two of you have been moving around frequently recently and have a very close relationship, so he took it upon himself to call Fang Erlang here."

"Actually, we are all outsiders. In a few days, Erlang will marry Princess Gaoyang and become the consort of my Li family. We will become a family!"

Hey hey hey...

Hey hey hey...

He smiled like a weasel who stole an old hen.

Princess Gaoyang.

Fang Yiai's head hurts when she thinks of this person. I heard that she is quite beautiful, but her personality is quite domineering. Fang Yiai's preference is for a cute girl who is like a bird, and she doesn't want that kind of tigress.

It is said that a man's aesthetic taste also comes from his family's influence. The Fang family already has Lao Lu, so there must not be another jealous girl.

What a shame, Fang Yiai had no choice in this matter.

He was sulking here, and when he looked up, Shen An was looking at him with sympathy, not knowing what he meant.

Li Zhi didn't care what they were thinking. He clapped his hands and a dozen boys stood in a row. They were all wearing ocher-colored uniforms and had strong bodies.

Something bad is going on!

Shen An grabbed Fang Yiai and looked at these people. Their burning eyes and strong bodies made him suspicious.

What's going on, are you going to practice cornering?

The Tang Dynasty favored martial arts, and fierce warriors emerged in large numbers. Fang Yiai was an expert in fighting, so he must be able to fight in a corner.

Only poor Shen An was left. His body and bones were not strong before, and he had never learned archery. Now that he finally regained some strength, he was forced to fight with others.

It seems that the only option is to be beaten.

"Mr. Shen, Erlang, before my father leaves the palace, why not let's play Cuju!"

"Okay!" As long as she was playing, Fang Yiai was full of energy. What was rare was that Shen An also returned the favor this time.

Cuju, you should have told me earlier!

In my last life, I was on the school team and my level was very high!

These warriors are all guards of the Jin Palace. They are now divided into two teams, distinguished by red and green turbans. Shen An stared at them without relaxing his vigilance at all.

Tsk, tsk, with my skills, I can’t deal with you.

On the other side, the Jinwu guards did not take Shen An seriously at all. King Jin had not recovered yet, and their task today was to play well with him without aggravating his condition.

Shen An forgot one thing. Jin Wuwei may not have as many tricks as he does, but his body is much stronger. If they fight against him, he is guaranteed to make Shen An full of teeth.

Li Zhi is here, and no one else can make the decision, everything must be obeyed by him.

The rules of ancient Cuju are very different from modern football. There is no fixed limit on the number of participants on both sides, and it is enough to form an offensive and defensive system.

Polo was so popular in the Tang Dynasty that many princes and nobles had private polo fields in their homes. Of course, such a spacious venue could also be used to play Cuju.

Under the leadership of Eunuch Liang, they came to the field. Shen An looked around and saw that the stands and goals were all in place.

There is also a gong hanging in the center of the venue, presumably for the opening ceremony.

The gong was hung very strangely. It was three feet high from the ground and was beyond the reach of ordinary people. There were no drumsticks around, so Shen An thought about what he should do to ring the gong.

Li Zhi also changed his clothes and came on stage dressed up. He divided the Jinwu Guards into two teams, with five people in each team. Shen An chatted, but this little kid didn't seem to have arranged a place for himself.
Chapter completed!
