Chapter 20 Learning Martial Arts

On the second day, the Imperial Horse Supervisor was on duty, and Zhu Youxiao's martial arts training place.

"Your Highness is small and ......weak," Yu Dayou said with a serious face, but before he could finish speaking, he and Zhu Youxiao, who was dressed in a short outfit in front of him, immediately bent down and lifted a thirty-kilogram stone lock.

Seeing this scene, Yu Dayou couldn't help but be a little surprised, he didn't expect this disciple to have such strength at a young age, he hurriedly changed his words: "Eh, talented, but still young, still focus on boiling the body, supplemented by technical training." ”

"Yes, Master Yu." Zhu Youxiao responded respectfully, and then under the guidance of Yu Dayou and Qi Jin, he began to stand on the pile and breathe and strengthen his body.

The pile he stood on was called the boy pile, which was carefully selected by the two after discussing it overnight. The whole boy pile is divided into two parts: static gong and dynamic work, at this moment he Zhu Youxiao is practicing static gong, and the dynamic gong can only be practiced after he enters the boy pile.

The reason why I chose this pile gong is because the boy pile is the most gentle, which is very suitable for children of Zhu Youxiao's age to lay the foundation, and this pile gong is very comprehensive, which can make the practice of all-round growth of strength, endurance, agility, etc., and there will be no shortcomings.

The only downside is that there are too many age restrictions and ancillary measures. It restricts children under the age of eight to practice, and it also requires a lot of precious medicinal herbs to prepare medicinal baths, cleanse the body, and replenish nutrients.

Ordinary Jiangmen families simply don't have the financial resources to support the cultivation of the children of the family, and what's even more deceptive is that you can't just have money, you must also have a way to get a lot of medicinal materials that have been in the year, so this pile gong is also called the rich pile. You have to be rich and expensive to practice.

However, all this is not a problem in front of the royal family, Zhu Youxiao does not ask about money at all, only whether the effect is good.

Time passed so slowly. Every morning, Zhu Youxiao got up early, as always, to read, read, practice, and fight.

Although Cao Huachun is educated, he can only enlighten Zhu Youxiao, and he can't teach it if he goes deeper, so gradually, his focus is on practicing martial arts.

When the three enlightenment books of the Three Character Classic, the Thousand Character Text, the Hundred Family Names, and the three enlightenment books were taught, he directly gave up continuing to study hard and devoted himself to martial arts training.

Martial arts need to be practiced continuously, and it takes time to turn it into instinct over time.

In the process of non-stop teaching, Qi Jin and Yu Zhigao gradually clarified the division of labor. Qi Jin was in charge of cavalry combat, and Yu Zhigao was in charge of infantry combat and archery.

Who is more powerful between Qi Jiguang and Yu Dayou has not been decided, but if the successors of the two in a single round, it is obvious that Yu Zhigao is more than powerful.

Therefore, the training of the entire personal martial arts is mainly based on Yu Zhigao, and Qi Jin teaches some skills that Yu Zhigao is not good at. However, Zhu Youxiao is a person who aspires to the world, how can he just want to practice martial arts and be a hero.

What he wants is all-round development, and it is Qi Jin's turn to exert his strength. In terms of cavalry warfare, Qi Jin is much better at it, which may also have a lot to do with Qi Jiguang's stay in the north for the rest of his life.

In short, the division of labor between the two is determined, Qi Jin is responsible for the immediate kung fu, Yu Zhigao is responsible for the horse kung fu, and then intersperses with some unique martial arts that they are good at to check and fill in the gaps.

As for weapons, Zhu Youxiao chose swords and spears, and longbows for long-range. As the saying goes, the sword and the moon stick are guns for a lifetime, and the sword is hidden with you. He can be said to have chosen the two most difficult weapons.

However, this is not difficult for Zhu Youxiao, he himself is born with divine power, and he is a traverser, a child has a good memory, he has a strong ability to understand, and he is taught by the world's top famous teachers every day, it is only a matter of time before he becomes a top general.

The daily hard work made Zhu Youxiao's life very fulfilling, and when he was tired from training, he went to Wanli to rest, came back at night to continue practicing, and then stayed in the medicinal bath all night.

Since he started practicing martial arts, he has basically never gone to bed again, and every night he is soaked in a black-brown Chinese medicine decoction, next to several eunuchs on duty at night, responsible for maintaining the temperature of the medicinal bath.

Under the full life, time flies. Half a year passed in the blink of an eye, and the days came to the end of November.

On this day, just as Zhu Youxiao finished training and walked to his residence, a loud baby cry suddenly came out of a side room.

This sudden cry made Zhu Youxiao, who happened to be passing by, pause, but then reacted that a newborn baby was born, and he had another younger brother or sister.

"Count the days, what is produced in it should be Xi Li's selection." There are only two people in the whole movement who are pregnant, Xi Li Xuanzhi and Liu Shuyuan. Liu Shuyuan is still in the month, and at this moment it can only be Xi Li in production.

"Let's go, let's see." Turning around, Zhu Youxiao walked towards the wing room where the voice came from.

When he got closer, there was already a wave of people waiting there, including his cheap father Zhu Changluo. There are also several concubines around him, the crown princess Guo, his mother Wang Cairen, and the big-bellied Lady Liu. There are several other children of Zhu Changluo around.

His cheap mother, Wang Cairen, was beside him, and there was a palace maid holding a child who was more than two or three years old, who was his younger brother. Around Wang Cairen, there was no other crown prince and concubine standing, and everyone was far away from her, including the crown prince Zhu Changluo.

But some nervous Wang Cairen didn't notice these at all, she just seemed bored because there was no one to tear him up, looking around, looking for something. Therefore, it was also Zhu Youxiao who was the first to discover Zhu Youxiao who was coming this way.

"Coming from school? Come to my mother's place. Wang Cairen's eyes were sharp, and he saw Zhu Youxiao at once, and after seeing this son who made her go to the peak of her life, he couldn't help shouting loudly.

Wang Cairen's shout attracted all the people gathered here, and after they frowned and looked at her, they looked in the direction of Wang Cairen's beckoning, and sure enough, the imperial grandson was walking towards this side.

After seeing the person who came, several concubines with children changed their faces one after another, pulled their children by their side without leaving a trace, and took a few steps back.

Since several princesses died shortly after they were born, rumors have spread in the palace that the crown prince has taken the lives of other royal descendants. Especially after the daughter of the crown princess Guo, that is, Zhu Changluo's eldest daughter, died this year, this rumor became even more popular, so Zhu Changluo had to severely punish several long-tongued women before he reluctantly suppressed the rumor.

But even so, the other concubines were careful not to let their children get close to this grandson brother. Only Wang Cairen didn't mind at all, and came over with his other son.

However, Zhu Youxiao didn't dare to let his mother come to greet him, so he walked a few steps and caught up. As he walked in, the crowd cracked like a steel knife cutting tofu. Even Guo, who was originally on his way forward, secretly bit his lip, hesitated for a moment, and got out of the way.

The concubines in the palace, no one dares to stop them.

After Guo's funeral, Xi Li and Wang Cairen tore up many times, but Wang Cairen's combat value was insufficient, and he was so anxious every time that he screamed.

Now Wang Cairen is gone, since giving birth to Zhu Youxiao, her status has become more and more noble, where can she stand this humiliation. It's just that she can't afford to mess with Concubine Donggong.

Under the turn of his mind, he paid attention to Zhu Youxiao's head, and cried in front of him. And Zhu Youxiao couldn't, after all, it was his mother, so he had to help, so he went to Wanli to sue him.

This is good, Wanli naturally believed in Zhu Youxiao, and reprimanded Guo severely. Guo, who was already in a bad mood, was reprimanded, lost face, and suddenly became ill, and was critically ill several times, and until now he is still sick and bedridden.

This time, I took advantage of the birth of a newborn to rush over and see if the disease could be cured.

After Guo was reprimanded, Wang Cairen was very proud, and he talked about this matter to threaten other concubines. Except for Xi Li, who relied on the prince's favor and pregnancy, the other concubines did not dare to provoke her at all, for fear of being reprimanded.

And Zhu Youxiao, as the main force, was also looked at differently, and no one dared to provoke him.

"My father is fine, my mother is fine, and my mother is fine." After coming to the crowd, Zhu Youxiao saluted three important people respectively.

After the salute, he stood silently aside, and around him, there was also a vacant circle.

"Hmm!" After Zhu Changluo nodded, he turned his head to look at the favored concubine in the delivery room waiting to give birth, and he was worried.

It was quiet outside the delivery room, and it was solemn in the bright moonlight. No one present dared to speak, only Wang Cairen, pulling Zhu Youxiao to keep asking questions, and the chatter was irritable.

Looking at Wang Cairen in front of him, whose mouth kept opening and closing, Zhu Youxiao frowned, he felt that his cheap mother was becoming more and more arrogant.

In the past, he would still be afraid of the prince's coercion, and when the prince was present, he would be scruples, but recently, he didn't know what was wrong, and his behavior became a little unscrupulous, and Zhu Changluo, who was a little soft, couldn't suppress him.

And her tearing skills have been getting higher and higher recently, and in words, Xi Li is no longer her opponent.

"Really, if I knew it would be like this, I shouldn't have helped her." Seeing the appearance of Wang Cairen in front of him, Zhu Youxiao couldn't help but regret it a little.

The reason why he helped Wang Cairen in the first place was because he didn't want her to be killed casually. Those things in the Ming Dynasty were clearly written, and Wang Cairen's death was not clear.

After all, it's his mother, so he can't see death without saving him. It was Zhu Youxiao who took action and gave his mother a hand, just to make others have scruples.

Thinking of it, the others did soften, but Wang Cairen became arrogant. Gives him a headache.

"Go away, go away, let him go away." Suddenly, Xi Li's high-pitched voice came from the delivery room, his voice hoarse and distorted, and seemed to be mixed with great pain and resentment.

But Xi Li Xuanzhi didn't care about this, he just cursed Zhu Youxiao vigorously, telling him to leave quickly, not to take his child's life.

"Crunch!"

After a shrill sound of the wooden door being pushed and pulled, a palace maid hurriedly came from inside and ran to Zhu Changluo to report something.

It seems that because the matter is urgent, the palace maid forgot to lower her voice, so that Zhu Youxiao, who was closer, heard everything.
