Chapter 196 [But for the sake of the king, I have been groaning so far]

(Today's update is delivered)

Chapter 196 But for the sake of the king, he has been muttering to this day

The smile on Tang Xin's face was still warm, although his eyes couldn't help but flash a hint of meaning, but he still made a polite appearance on his face, and turned his head to look at Prince Boren: "Your Highness, the three exchanges have been completed......

Boren snorted and stood up, although he was unhappy in his heart, but after all, he was a child of the royal family, and he still had the bearing, suppressed the anger in his heart, and said slowly: "Today's competition is really jīng Cai, this Mr. Chen Xiao's skills are extraordinary, which is amazing." It's a pity that I haven't been able to see the stunt of the Shangchen family swordsman today. ”

He said this lightly, but he also had a thought, and deliberately drew a line between Chen Xiao and the Shangchen family, which means that it is this Chinese boy who wins, and it is not your Shangchen family who is beautiful.

Tang Xin didn't care, just smiled slightly and didn't refute. Anyway, the rumor spread out, and the three swordsmen who came to challenge came to challenge each other, and they were defeated - such rumors were enough. The Shangchen family is already beautiful enough, and they don't care about increasing their records one more time, but in the current position of the Shangchen family, they can't lose, they can't afford to lose, as long as they don't lose today.

As for Prince Boren asking for a few words of cheapness, he is a royal prince again, and he is also up to him.

Boren had already slowly walked down the inner hall, and when he passed by Tang Xin's side, his steps paused slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but he finally held back, but he seemed to have a look at Tang Xin with a vague look, and then strode down the steps of the inner hall.

The swordsmen of the Shangchen family below immediately bowed down and saluted. And Chen Xiao was the only one still standing there.

"Mr. Chen Xiao." Prince Boren walked to Chen Xiao's side before he stopped and looked at Chen Xiao with Yan Yue. He knew the name "Nohara Shinnosuke", Chen Xiao was talking nonsense, he was a prince. Naturally, he didn't follow Chen Xiao to mess around, so he directly called Chen Xiao's real name, and his god was very kind, and he actually walked over. He patted Chen Xiao's shoulder lightly and said with a smile: "Today, Your Excellency let me see the superb martial arts of Middle Earth, which is really amazing. If you have the opportunity, please give me advice. ”

Teaching?

People in the martial arts, when it comes to saying that the other party "teaches". Most of the time it's just a challenge. But of course this Prince Boren didn't mean that, Chen Xiao was slightly stunned. The other party has continued to laugh and say: "I am quite interested in Sinology, and I have been familiar with many Han classics since I was a child, and I have also read a few Buddhist scriptures. He is also interested in the martial arts of Middle-earth. I didn't hesitate to teach, but I didn't mean to be kind. If I have the opportunity, please ask Mr. Chen Xiao to teach me. I'm stupid, but I can't be worse than Chibako. Chibazi found such an excellent kendo teacher as Your Excellency, and I will share it with you. Please don't say no! ”

After speaking. He actually nodded to Chen Xiao.

In front of others, it is really arrogant to open his mouth to dig into the corners of the wall so openly. But after all, he is a royal prince, and he also has this kind of arrogant qualifications.

It's just that his original kendo teacher was Nishihira Kojiro, and today Nishihira Kojiro lost, and immediately fell greatly in Boren's eyes. Looking around, there are not many first-class kendo masters who can surpass Kojiro Nishihira, and the kind of real grandmaster-level people, such as Takeuchi Fumiyama. But he didn't look down on Boren. Boren wanted to overpower the limelight of the Shangchen family, and saw Chen Xiao show such amazing skills. hit Chen Xiao with the idea.

As for Chen Xiao being Chinese, Boren has no concerns, and the royal family has always studied Sinology, and it is common to invite a few private Chinese teachers. Besides, even Qianyezi has already learned kendo with Chen Xiao under his name, and it is not out of place to do it by himself.

This is also the meaning that he tightly held Chen Xiao as a "Chinese master", and never mentioned anything about "the inner disciple of the Shangchen family".

Chen Xiao smiled faintly and did not answer. Boren is not angry, on this occasion, in front of everyone's eyes, his identity is detached, and he openly recruits Chen Xiao, and others naturally can't say anything about him. But Chen Xiao was not easy to answer, he also understood, he just thought that it was inconvenient for Chen Xiao to speak, anyway, he left an attitude, and he would send someone to contact him privately afterwards.

After saying that, he didn't say hello and strode out of the courtyard.

Out of the courtyard gate, beside the mountain road outside the heart sword house, many of his attendants were already waiting there, and one of the attendants saw the master come out, and immediately hurriedly came over respectfully: "Your Highness, Master Takamoto and Master Miyazawa have been sent down the mountain to heal their wounds......"

Although Boren was angry with the two of them in his heart, but after all, the two were injured in the competition, and if he didn't care, he would inevitably leave a mean tongue, so he nodded, suppressed the impatience in his heart, and said gently: "The two swordsmen have worked hard, send someone to the hospital to accompany them, and be sure to ask the hospital to take care of them." ”

The attendant was a little confused, and asked again recklessly: "There are ...... Master Kojiro Nishihira, he has already led someone down the mountain first......"

Boren had already walked down the mountain road, and when he heard this, a layer of frost suddenly appeared on his face, and he said coldly: "What a master!" Hmph, that kind of waste, is it also worthy of being a master of the royal family! ”

Originally, the teachers hired by the royal family were divided into master teachers and guest teachers. As a sign of respect for their teachers, any "master teacher" who taught the children of the royal family was honored as a master. This "Master Fan" is not an official title, but an unofficial honorific title.

It's just that Takeuchi Fumiyama's "Imperial Kendo Master Teacher" is the official title of "Master Teacher" ordained by the Imperial Family.

The attendant saw that the prince was angry, and quickly closed his mouth in fright, but he thought in his heart: Before coming, His Royal Highness was respectful to Xiping Kojiro, and he was "Xiping Master" when he opened and closed his mouth, and he also personally performed the disciple ceremony. Now that Xiping has lost, in the mouth of His Highness, it will become "waste".

It has always been like a tiger with you, and this truth has been true throughout the ages, regardless of whether it is Chinese or foreign. The same is true in rì books.

At that moment, the servant didn't dare to say more, and followed honestly, but he didn't dare to say anything more about Nishihei Kojiro.

Instead, he walked down the hill and Prince Boren paused and glanced back at the mountain. Crossing the cherry blossom forest all over the mountain, the heart of the mountain was faintly in sight, he groaned slightly, and ordered: "Tonight." You take a copy of my name card and go to visit that Chen Xiao, and be polite. I remember that your Chinese is good, this matter will be handed over to you, be sure to do it! ”

Then my heart moved. Worried that the portion was not enough, he touched it from his arms. I found out a folding fan, this folding fan is a royal tribute, the quality of jīng beauty, the end of a work of art, ivory fan bones, carved jīng beauty.

He thought about it for a moment and said casually: "Pen! ”

He is the honor of the prince. is a very likely heir to the throne again, and wherever he goes, he is followed by a string of retinues, and the pomp is much bigger than that of Prince Satouchi. Among the entourage, there were people who prepared various items at all times, and as soon as Boren opened his mouth, someone immediately held a wolf brush dipped in thick ink with both hands.

Boren opened the folding fan and groaned for a while, and the attendant next to him immediately understood and hurriedly walked to the front. Bend down. Flatten his back and serve as a table table for His Royal Highness.

Boren's sinology is indeed quite accomplished. With a deep sigh, he wrote two ancient Chinese poems on the fan surface:

But for the sake of the king, he has been groaning so far.

This poem was written by Cao Cāo at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty. It turns out that the poem mainly expresses the longing for a gentleman with both talent and virtue, and implicitly coincides with the meaning of Corporal Lixian. It's just that it has been propagated in China for thousands of years, and with the change of culture, these two poems have gradually evolved into a little bit of male and female affection.

However, Boren took these two lines of poetry here, but they also mean Corporal Lixian.

His calligraphy is quite skilled, and the two lines of poetry written by the pen are mellow and powerful, and he is obviously quite accomplished in calligraphy, not the kind of straw bag gentleman.

After drying the ink, Boren took it in his hand and looked at it again, with a satisfied smile on his face, and handed the folding fan to the attendant: "This is my gift, you can help me transfer it to Chen Xiaojun." ”

The close attendant has always followed Prince Boren, respectfully took the folding fan in his hand, thinking that when His Royal Highness recruited Nishihira Kojiro, he also sent a folding fan, but did not write the inscription himself, this time he sent it to this Chinese, and also wrote two Chinese poems himself, it seems that in the eyes of His Highness, the weight of this Chinese is much higher than that of Nishihira Kojiro. After retreating. This time, Chen Xiao came forward and defeated the three kendo masters who came to challenge him one by one, and suddenly these swordsmen of the Shangchen family looked at Chen Xiao with quite different eyes. Yesterday was full of hostility, but now it is much more affectionate, with a faint respect and fear. rì himself is an admirer of the strong, especially the three people who come to challenge are not weak, that Nishihei Kojiro made a move, you can see that kendo has been quite accomplished, and has steadily entered the realm of top first-class swordsmen, among the eight masters of the Shangchen family, no one can reach that realm.

And Chen Xiao, who defeated Kojiro Xiping, naturally made Shangchen Bajie in awe.

Before that Ito Daxu left, he glanced at Chen Xiao deeply, but his eyes were not friendly, obviously today's matter, although Tang Xin talked to him, but he was not very much in favor, but when the matter came to this situation, he didn't say anything. Ito Kyo pushed Ito Taio and retreated.

"Thank you, Chen Xiaojun." Tang Xin walked down slowly, still with a quiet smile on his face, but he blinked his eyelids, slightly revealing a little girl's naughtiness: "Or, should I call you, Mr. Nohara Shinnosuke?" ”

Chen Xiao smiled, and then said, "I did you a favor, how can the Shangchen family thank me?" ”

Tang Xin glanced at Chen Xiao more: "The matter is not over yet, if you want to get the reward, you have to wait until the thing is done." ”

Chen Xiao smiled and glanced at Tang Xin deeply: "You're not afraid of seeking skin with the tiger?" ”

Tang Xin smiled: "I will go to the other courtyard tonight to teach you the introductory way of heart swordsmanship first, as for how much you can comprehend, it depends on your comprehension and talent." ”

Chen Xiao originally didn't have much interest in this kind of real martial arts, and most of the reasons why he came forward to help today was to see Tang Xin's face, and he only sympathized with this poor girl in his heart.

It's just that after the battle with Nishihei Kojiro, the thoughts in my heart have faintly changed a little - it seems. Serious study of martial arts is also quite beneficial. I have always relied on my abilities to bully people, and when I meet a real master, I will inevitably suffer.

It's just that he doesn't yearn for the swordsmanship of the Shangchen family too much in his heart - there is a real master General Tian in the unfinished streets of China. If you want to learn martial arts, you naturally need to learn authentic Chinese martial arts.

Seeing that there was no one left and right, Chen Xiao casually asked, "What's the matter with that Prince Boren?" Mr. Takeuchi Fumiyama is a master of the imperial family, why does that prince seem to be so hostile to Izumi Palace? ”

Tang Xin sighed. Briefly introduce Boren's identity and position in the royal family.

When Chen Xiao heard this, she couldn't help laughing: "Ah! It turned out to be a figure who might become Emperor Rìmoto in the future! It's a pity that I didn't look at him twice just now, and he will become the emperor in the future. But it's hard to get close to such people. ”

He made a joke and continued, "Just. Since he is such a prince with a special status, why don't your Shangchen family get along with him? Make the relationship so strained? ”

Tang Xin smiled bitterly: "Because...... Grandfather's sake. ”

Her voice was a little helpless: "My grandfather is the master of the imperial sword family, nominally, he is the kendo teacher of all the royal disciples, and he has the accusation of teaching all the royal children. Our kendo teacher is not just teaching swordsmanship. It also includes the way of martial arts, the morality of being a person, the code, and so on. Moreover, as the master of the imperial family, my grandfather also had a certain say in front of His Majesty the Emperor. His Majesty the Emperor would occasionally meet with his grandfather and inquire about the education of the children of the Imperial Family. If my grandfather said two good things about someone, His Majesty the Emperor's influence on that person would naturally leave a good impression - on the other hand, if my grandfather said something bad about someone, that ......"

Chen Xiao nodded: "Understood." It's probably the meaning of a Taifu. It's just that Takeuchi Wenshan is not Wen Taifu, but Wu Taifu. But. In this case, if that Boren is smart, he should make friends with you well, how can he not be compatible with Quanliu Palace? ”

It's just that in the face of this question, Tang Xin didn't answer, just smiled silently, and his eyes were somewhat strange.

Chen Xiao saw that Tang Xin didn't speak, and it was not convenient to ask, but he couldn't help but think in his heart: Looking at that Boren, his eyes were a little strange when he looked at Tang Xin, could it be that he liked Tang Xin, Lao Zhuuchi disagreed, and the two families formed a feud...... It's a possibility.

Tang Xin had already jumped away from the topic and said, "Boren and his grandfather don't have a good relationship. If it's a child of the imperial family, it doesn't matter if the emperor's impression is good or bad. It's just that Bohito is one of the candidates who have a chance to win the throne, so he naturally hopes that someone will have a lot of kind words in front of the emperor, and not only that, but also the Imperial Household Agency's evaluation of the children of the imperial family, etc., my grandfather can say something. Now that our two families are not in harmony, Boren is naturally not worried that his grandfather will continue to sit on the throne of the imperial sword master Fan, even if he can't shake his grandfather's position, but he also has to find a way to weaken his grandfather's influence on the royal family, and the most effective way is to weaken the prestige of his grandfather and Izumiru Palace in the rì martial arts world. My grandfather was the first grandmaster of Rìben, and it was not easy to beat my grandfather's idea. But it can be done to weaken the prestige of the Quanliu Palace. weakening the prestige of Quanliu Palace is equivalent to slapping my grandfather in the face, so that my grandfather will not be able to speak hard in the royal family. ”

Hearing this, Chen Xiao nodded, knowing in his heart.

During the day, Ito Kyo came to accompany Chen Xiao for another day, touring the mountains and rivers, and wandering around Kobe City for a day, but without waiting for the sun to go down, Chen Xiao returned to the other courtyard on Quanliugong Mountain early, he made an appointment with Tang Xin during the day, and Tang Xin would come over to teach him heart swordsmanship at night.

After leaving Ito Kyo, Chen Xiao sat in the courtyard and waited quietly, thinking of Tang Xin's late night visit last night, he couldn't help but have some faint expectations in his heart, and he couldn't help but laugh at himself a little bit for his mentality.

But before the sun went down, someone came to visit outside the courtyard, but it was not Tang Xin, but a strange young man.

The man behaved respectfully, accompanied by two disciples of the Quanliu Palace.

The man walked into the courtyard gate, saluted Chen Xiao very respectfully, and then took two steps back, bowed slightly, and his tone was even more polite: "Mr. Chen Xiao, our Royal Highness the Prince met with Your Excellency during the day, and I was greatly distressed by Your Excellency's demeanor, and I was specially sent to visit to convey His Highness's respect for you." ”

As he spoke, he solemnly took out a small wooden box and offered it with both hands: "This is a gift written by His Royal Highness himself, please accept it with a smile." ”

This person didn't wait for Chen Xiao to reply anything, anyway, Boren only told him to give gifts, and he also understood that Chen Xiao was still living in Quanliu Palace, so it was impossible to openly fall to himself immediately, come to the door to give gifts, and leave a good impression, just wait to see you later.

Sending away this person who came to visit the gift giver for some reason, Chen Xiao closed the courtyard door and looked at the box in his hand.

This is a high-quality sandalwood box, naturally emitting a slight fragrance, open it, a jīng beautiful ivory bone fan quietly placed in it.

Chen Xiao couldn't help but smile, do these aristocratic men like to shake folding fans? This is true of Itokyo and so is this Prince Hakuhito.

I took out the fan and opened it to look at it, and I saw the round and powerful two-line poem on it. Chen Xiao was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but think in his heart: This royal prince of rì book, there are really two characters in Chinese calligraphy, not to mention anything else, but this kind of brush calligraphy, I can't write so well.

But I saw the content of the poem above:

But for the sake of the king, he has been groaning so far.

Chen Xiao read this poem, but immediately misunderstood - this poem has been passed down to this day, and few people remember its original meaning of Corporal Lixian, but it is often used to express love between men and women.

When Chen Xiao saw that this Prince Boren actually wrote such a sentence on his folding fan, he suddenly felt a chill in his heart, and couldn't help but shiver.

Depend on! Could it be that this Prince Boren looks like a human, but he is a glass!!

(Today's weekend, there are a few more, so please bear with me.)
