"pa roi reci djedi" is one grammatical unit attached to the bridi "da
broda". In this "PA roi SUMTI" construct, SUMTI specifies the interval
over which the count PA is true.
djedi2 is "one" by default, so "reci djedi" makes "twenty-three of
that which is one full day in duration". Also correct may be "reci
seldei", "a duration which is twenty-three full days". In both cases,
"reci" quantifies a semantic body of a temporal interval, which is
what "pa roi" takes.

Could you remind me of an example of the usage in question?
