Chapter 165: The Football Prince. [166]
Summary
Zheng Rong Tai takes Li Yan Qing to the southern training grounds of the Taixue, where students practice martial skills and play cuju, an ancient version of football. Cuju is popular among all classes in the Great Song Dynasty, including the emperor. Li Yan Qing, although skilled in modern football, finds cuju different and realizes that excelling in it does not lead to official positions. During a match, Zheng Rong Tai introduces Li Yan Qing to Sun Da Ya, a well-connected referee. Zheng offers to help Li Yan Qing source spices for his family's rouge shop, Baoyanzhai, and they discuss connections in the spice trade. After the match, they meet Zhao Kai, a prince, who invites Li Yan Qing to discuss his examination paper on the Jurchens.Full content
