Chapter 286 Li Shimin likes Dunhua Square

On a straight cement road, the carriage is slowly driving on the cement road, and you can't feel any bumps, and rows of poplar and willow trees are planted on both sides of the cement road.

The two kinds of trees are lush and walking on this straight concrete road is like walking on a tree-lined path.

On both sides of the cement road, new-style houses made Li Shimin, Fang Xuanling, Changsun Wuji and others in the carriage stunned... After coming to Dunhuafang, they all felt that they were no longer in Chang'an.

Unlike the antique buildings in Chang'an, Dunhuafang has been renovated for a long time, and basically the wooden houses have been replaced by cement houses. Li You used a community layout to build Dunhuafang.

So Dunhua Fang and other buildings in Chang'an are very different.

If there is another modern person who travels to Chang'an at this time, he will definitely think that this place is modern, not ancient.

"Ice soybean...Ice soybean...!"

Where the carriage passed by, a Dunhuafang gang was sitting in front of a wooden box and shouting ice sorbet.

Fang Xuanling came to interest and asked, "Your Highness Princess, what is ice soybean..."

"Ah... the ice sorbet..." Li Mingda giggled and shouted to the driver in front of him: "Stop, stop...!" The carriage stopped quickly, and then Li Mingda stretched out his little head out of the carriage: "Master... Give me four ice sorbets."

"It turns out to be His Highness the Princess... OK, okay... Four Ice Sorbets..." As he said that, he saw the slightly older man below quickly searching through the wooden box for a while, and then took out four Ice Sorbets. In fact, the so-called Ice Sorbet is an ice cube made with milk, water and sugar. It has a stick on it, just like the popsicles sold by the bicycles that were eaten in the fields when he was a child in the 1980s.

Of course, it’s just that the ice sorbet in Dunhuafang is expensive. One person can take his own ID card and receive one a day. As for Li Mingda, he can have as many as he wants.

"Eat quickly..." Li Mingda took four ice soybeans into his hands, and then gave one to Li Shimin, Fang Xuanling, and Changsun Wuji. Then, Li Shimin and others tore off a layer of paper outside the ice soybean according to Li Mingda's method.

Then we started eating together.

"Oh...This tastes good, it has a milky smell, and it is very sweet... It's very satisfying to eat it... Your Highness Princess, how much does this ice sorbet cost?" Changsun Wuji exclaimed slightly after taking a bite of the ice sorbet.

"No money... Gushe..." Li Mingda bit the hard ice soybean directly and said, "Ice soybeans are free. As long as we have the ID card of Dunhuafang, we can get one a day...!"

"Free..." Fang Xuanling smiled slightly and said, "It is said that His Highness, King Qi, loves the people as much as his son. Now it seems that what he said is not false...!"

"Well... Not bad... Not bad, no wonder the heat disaster came. No one in Dunhuafang was killed by the heat... Li You's heart is very good...!" Li Shimin nodded slightly after taking a bite of ice sorbet.

When Li Mingda heard his father praise his fifth brother, he smiled sweetly. At this moment, suddenly, a burst of noisy sounds from children outside the carriage.

"Transfer...Send quickly...!"

Then you hear a 'bang' sound, and then a child shouts the ball well. After a while, you will hear the child shouting excitedly: "Defense, defense..."

"Stop him... don't let him break through..."

"Shot...!"

These voices were heard by Li Shimin and the other two. Li Shimin looked at Li Mingda strangely. Li Mingda instantly smiled and said, "Oh...you must be asking what's wrong outside?

Haha...they... are playing football, well... by the way, it's almost the same as ours, but it's not much the same as ours, and it doesn't require such good skills. As long as you want to play, anyone can play...!"

The biggest difference between football and Cuju may be that one requires very high skills, but the other one can play. In fact, during the Han Dynasty, Cuju culture was vigorously developed.

The second vigorous development was during the Tang and Song dynasties.

Because during the Tang and Song dynasties, Cuju developed from using solid balls filled with hair to inflatable balls (inflatable balls appeared after the Southern Dynasties). Of course, it was definitely not as good as Li You's football.

Moreover, it is too difficult to play Cuju. When building the ball, two three-meter-high clubs are erected in the center of the court. The upper goal diameter is about one foot, which is called "Fengliuyan".

Cuju is to kick the ball into Fengliu's eyes, and Fengliu's eyes are three meters tall. The harsh difficulty limits the development of Cuju.

It's too unrealistic to say that the civilian made a romantic eye to play Cuju, which was three feet tall, but football is different. Just use two stones to pin the goal, and there is no need for difficult movements. As long as you can run and kick with your legs, you can do it.

Cuju is completely different. The rule is that you must smash the balls with each other several times and then pass them to the deputy captain. The deputy captain waits for the ball to be upright and steady, and then passes them to the captain. The captain kicks the ball towards the romantic eye. The one who passes the ball will win.

The same is true for the right army to get the ball. At the end, the winner will decide the winner according to the number of balls you have passed. The winner will be rewarded, and the loser will be punished. The captain will eat a whip and apply white powder on his face.

Oh my God...you said that people can play?

The carriage stopped again, Li Shimin, Fang Xuanling, Changsun Wuji... Sitting in the carriage, watching outside the carriage, a group of children were running back and forth on a playground, chasing a ball, kicking extremely fiercely.

I don't know why... I even enjoyed it for a while.

Only Li Mingda said impatiently: "Father... can you still leave... What's so good about this? A group of little kids kicked around. If the father really liked watching, let the fifth brother pull out his guard team, and they kicked it so fiercely."

"Is that right..." Li Shimin became interested: "Then Li You will arrange a game next time for his father to see. This is very interesting to play football."

"It's good..." Changsun Wuji and Fang Xuanling also nodded together, and praised the football. Li Shimin even wanted to wait and ask Li You for a football and go back and play it.

After walking along the way, Li You's Dunhuafang once again gave Li Shimin and others a different feeling. After arriving at Li You's home, Li You came out as soon as possible.

"Li You... Meet Your Majesty..."

When Li Shimin got off the carriage, Li You hurriedly bowed and bowed.

Looking at Li You, Li Shimin smiled and said, "No gifts... I came to your Dunhuafang today and benefited a lot. Moreover, when I came here, I would have to take something like you, but I just don't know if you are willing to give up!"

"Li You's life is given by His Majesty, so everything in Dunhuafang is His Majesty's. As long as His Majesty wants it, anything in Dunhuafang is His Majesty's...!"

After Li You said this, Li Shimin, Changsun Wuji, and Fang Xuanling looked at each other, and then they all laughed. This was so nice and heartwarming.

"Okay... I won't beat you around the bush. I'm here to ask your saltpeter ice method... I wonder if King Qi is willing to give up...!" Li Shimin smiled faintly.
