Chapter 325: Everyone Wants Tickets
Between Xiang-guo Temple and Jingling East Palace, there was a place called Football City.
As the name suggested, Football City was a venue specifically designed for football, though this particular field was prepared exclusively for the imperial family. Matches such as those between Great Song and the Liao Empire would generally be held here.
Additionally, there were competitions organized by the imperial family themselves.
Of course, matches of the eighteen clubs of the capital would occasionally be arranged by the imperial court to take place here as well.
After Grand Empress Dowager Cao expressed her desire to watch the match, Emperor Zhao Xu immediately arranged for this charity competition to be held at Football City. Naturally, Zhang Fei’s influence also played a role in this decision.
Emperor Zhao Xu’s trust in Zhang Fei now rivaled that which he placed in Wang Anshi.
Toward his own people, Emperor Zhao Xu was quite generous.
“You rascal!”
When Cao Ping saw Zhang Fei, he cursed through gritted teeth.
