In this case, if we give Erlang some opportunities to handle things, those who once had grievances against Erlang will be grateful to him if they are given some opportunities.

What is this called? Beating someone with a stick and then giving him a piece of candied date.

This is called a wake-up call.

Li Yuan stroked his beard and thought.

Then he turned around and said to Li Fu.

"Okay, you really reminded me of this matter. I know what to do now." Li Yuan smiled: "After seven days, you can bring your family to the arena to watch the game. This is the first game after the arena is built. According to the people below, it will be very lively. A lot of tickets have been sold. People in Chang'an City heard that the cheapest ticket is only one penny, and they are all scrambling to buy it."

"It's lively, but soldiers must be dispatched to guard outside the venue on that day. There are too many people, and if the order is disrupted, it is easy to cause a stampede." Li Fu said: "Safety must be guaranteed. It's perfect for the first time, and it's a good start. Only then will it go smoothly in the future."

"I have already given the order. You should ask your second brother for the matter of mobilizing troops." Li Yuan smiled.

Anyway, Li Yuan only gives orders. If the people under him can do it, they will do it. If they can't do something, they won't be forced to do it. They will just go to Taiji Palace to deliver the letter.

The emperor will naturally have a way to do it.

Besides, it was not a big deal. Just dispatch some soldiers to guard outside.

Next, Li Fu and Li Yuan sat together and sorted out the matters of the arena seven days later, checking for omissions and filling in the gaps. In the evening, they returned to the Jingyang Palace.

When they got home, Lao Zhou hurried to the front yard to greet them.

"My dear, you are finally back. Madam has been waiting for you for a long time." Lao Zhou said.

"Well? Did something happen?" Li Fu asked.

"There is a letter from Zhuangzi, and it is in Madam's hand."

"Okay, I know, let the kitchen prepare dinner quickly." Li Fu ordered.

"Yes." Lao Zhou bowed and responded.

Li Fu went straight to the study in the backyard.

What happened in Zhuangzi?

After arriving at the study, Li Shao saw Li Fu.

"My husband, Taoist Sun went to the manor and Lao Zhao received him." Li Shao got straight to the point and gave Li Fu a great surprise.

"Really?!" Li Fu widened his eyes in surprise.

Sun Simiao, it's OK.

Keep your word.

He promised me that he would go out to travel and would definitely return to the manor within two years.

He really came back.

This is great!

"Taoist Sun said he had an appointment with my husband, so he came back." Li Shao said: "Lao Zhao has let Taoist Sun stay in the house first, and then quickly sent someone to send a letter to explain the situation, and asked when we will return to the manor."

Li Fu's face showed some embarrassment.

"This.......Originally I was thinking of going back after the celebration banquet, but what a coincidence. I went to Da'an Palace today. Seven days later, the arena will open and there will be a grand polo match. The emperor even specifically asked me to take you to watch it." Li Fu said, "Look, even the tickets are ready."

Li Fu took out the tickets Li Yuan gave him from his arms.

"He also said that you like to watch it, so he specially reserved a good seat for the two of us. The tickets for the rest of the seats have been sold, especially the tickets at the back, which are one penny each." Li Fu said.

Li Shao was not surprised.

It had spread all over Chang'an City earlier.

It was said that there was a match in the arena and tickets had already been sold.

Although many people did not understand what it meant, they understood everything when they went to the scene and asked.

One penny to watch those dignitaries playing polo on the field.

This is a huge bargain.

Many people think that they, the common people, have no merit to let those nobles come down to play polo for them to watch.

Isn't it worth buying?

Spending a penny, not getting poor, and having fun watching the game, it's worth it.

"I looked at the account book today. The venue has 7,000 people, and it is estimated that two-thirds of the seats will be filled." Li Fu said, "It will be very lively that day."

Li Shao listened to Li Fu's description and was a little moved. He took the ticket from Li Fu's hand in a daze.

"It's so lively, why don't you go to join in?" Li Fu smiled and said, "First, you like it, and second, we have to go for the face of the emperor."

"Then Taoist Sun on the farm can't neglect him, what should we do?" Li Shao asked.

"Okay, let Shitou go to the farm and invite Taoist Sun to Chang'an first." Li Fu said, "I want Taoist Sun to come to Chang'an. I have something I want him to help me with."

"Yes?" Li Shao tilted his head and looked at Li Fu.

Li Fu smiled, took Li Shao's hand and found a place to sit down.

"Master Sun is a great doctor. My father has returned from the battlefield. I would like to ask Master Sun to check the pulse of my father and mother. We should all check it." Li Fu said, "In addition, in the palace, the emperor is old and has indulged himself too much in the past two years. Although I have found a lot of things for him to do so that he will not be too bored, his age is there after all."

"Although there are imperial doctors in the palace, how can I say those imperial doctors? They don't seek merit, but only seek to avoid mistakes. If there is something, we may not be able to count on them. Let's ask Master Sun to go. Also, after the queen gave birth to the child, Master Sun checked her pulse and asked her to take good care of herself. After so long, let's take another look."

Li Shao suddenly realized that this was the case.

"Besides, Chang'an City is so lively here, it's not a bad idea to invite Taoist Sun to come and have a look and join in the fun." Li Fu smiled: "For Taoist Sun, I want to communicate with him sincerely. Since he has returned to the manor, it means that he also wants to stay. The academy will continue to start construction this year to build a medicine house to prepare for Taoist Sun to lead students there in the future. He came back this time for the academy."

Li Shao figured out her husband's intention.

"My husband is thinking that since Taoist Sun has excellent medical skills, he might as well live in the academy. If there are students in the academy who are talented in this field, can Taoist Sun teach them?"

Li Fuyi clapped his hands and smiled, "Yes, my wife is smart."

"Taoist Sun has traveled all over the world over the years and has accumulated a lot of experience in practicing medicine. He has also searched for many useful prescriptions. According to his idea, he should also want to find a suitable place to settle down and compile his experience, including the prescriptions he collected, into a book."

"Then we will provide him with a suitable place on our farm. How great it is. We can have everything we want, even paper is not available on the market."
