Chapter 1182 Guidance
When Liu Yu walked into the luxury box on the top floor of the Golden Wind Drizzle Building, he found that Cao De and Guo Jia had already arrived.
"I didn't expect that I, the host, would make the guests wait for a long time, I'm really ashamed, ashamed! Please also ask Second Master Cao to forgive the sins! Liu Yu said with some embarrassment.
Cao De greeted him disapprovingly, as if he was the master and led Liu Yu into the seat, and said with a smile: "What is Liu Xiangye talking about, Xiangye has a lot of opportunities, of course he will not be as leisurely as me!" In the afternoon, I heard Master Guo Jia say that Xiangye was going to invite me to dinner, which was a joy! But I've been bothering Xiangye for so long, and I've been taken care of by Xiangye so well, and I'm a little embarrassed in my heart, so I think I'll invite Xiangye for this meal, Xiangye, don't fight with me! ”
Liu Yu saw that Cao De's appearance was sincere, and there was no hint of hypocrisy, so he fulfilled him: "Since this is the case, then I will not be polite, let's have a banquet!" ”
Cao De was obviously extremely satisfied with Liu Yu's straightforward statement, he laughed and ordered the shopkeeper to serve wine and food, and then talked with Liu Yu eloquently, during which he also chatted with Guo Jia from time to time, fully showing the good social skills of a child of a family, and definitely not letting the guests feel that they were left out.
After three rounds of drinking, Liu Yu glanced at Guo Jia again and again, but he turned a blind eye to the wine and food on the table, so angry that Liu Yu secretly decided that next time there was such a good thing of eating and drinking for nothing, he would never call him. In desperation, Liu Yu could only go out in person and stop Cao De, who was about to continue to toast. said with some apologies: "Second Master Cao will not rest for the time being, in fact, the reason why I want to invite you to dinner today is because I have something to tell you." ”
Cao De, who was blushing from drinking, patted his chest vigorously and said: "If there is anything to say, I will never refuse!" ”
Dare to love this Second Master Cao, he must have thought that I asked him to do something, so he would invite him to dinner! Liu Yu shook his head a little amused. said to Cao De, who put on a posture of "I am very righteous": "Second Master Cao, you misunderstood, what I want to tell you is that I received a letter from your brother Brother Meng De, saying that I want you to return to Chang'an, and the person sent to pick you up has arrived at Hangu Pass!" ”
"What?" Cao De was taken aback and asked, "My brother wants me to go back to Chang'an?" Seeing Liu Yu nodding, he immediately put on the appearance of a dead son, uh. This analogy is inappropriate, people have already died of their sons. It should be said that he immediately put on the appearance of a dead man, and said pitifully: "But Xiangye, I don't want to go back to Chang'an yet!" ”
"Why?"
After Cao De listened to Liu Yu's question, he immediately became energetic. He said in a happy tone: "It's much more fun here than Chang'an, so I don't want to go back!" My brother can also be called a capable minister, the original somewhat depressed Chang'an has been restored to a bit of the old appearance of the Han Dynasty after a few years of governance, I have always thought that Chang'an is now the most lively city in the Han Dynasty, but when I returned to my hometown to know that I have been sitting in the well and watching the sky. Chang'an's prosperity is not only far inferior to Luoyang, but even the state governance places like Chenliu and Yingchuan are not comparable. What's more, although Chang'an is prosperous, my brother has been strictly controlling and cracking down on entertainment venues such as Qinglou and gambling halls in order to make great efforts to govern the country and rectify the social atmosphere, so that I can't find a place to play. But Luoyang is different. There are more interesting and interesting places. There are not only heart-tickling and blood-boiling green buildings and gambling halls, but also fascinating and laughing storytelling, as well as intoxicating singing and dancing and touching dramas. Xiangye, you said. How can I give up everything and go back to the boring Chang'an! Or, Xiangye, tell my brother and leave me behind! ”
Liu Yu, who was lamenting that Cao Cao was not a plaything like himself, and Guo Jia, who was eating and drinking, both laughed in surprise after hearing the words of this Second Master Cao, and Liu Yu said to Cao De who showed a confused expression: "Second Master Cao, you don't know that my brother and I are mortal enemies, right?!" If you really stay in Luoyang, then your brother will definitely think that I kidnapped you. If he spreads this word to the world, then my reputation will be stinky! ”
Cao De was slightly stunned after listening to Liu Yu's words. Then he rubbed his head in annoyance and asked himself, "Then what should I do?" ”
Liu Yu suddenly felt a little sorry for this second master Cao, who might be a little mentally retarded, for no reason, so he said warmly: "Second master Cao, Chang'an is your home after all, I haven't seen you for so long, the old lady and your brother will miss you." You can go back and see them first, and then come to Luoyang after seeing them! ”
"Really? Will I be able to come back when I go back? Cao De's expression looked a little uneasy.
Liu Yu smiled and comforted him: "Of course, I welcome friends like Second Master Cao!" ”
Liu Yu's words did not soothe Cao De's frowning brows, and he still said with some worry: "But Xiangye, didn't you say that you and my brother are mortal enemies?" Then how could my brother let me come to Luoyang? ”
"Don't worry, Second Master Cao. I will write a letter to Brother Meng De, saying that I will never hurt you, let alone use you to blackmail him. And you can also use the excuse of going back to your hometown to guard the ancestral tomb to come to Luoyang, with my guarantee and your filial piety, I think Brother Meng De will not stop you at that time! ”
Cao De was overjoyed after listening to Liu Yu's words, and toasted Liu Yu again and again to express his gratitude, but of course, he was carried back drunk and drunk.
Early the next morning, Cao De, who did not have a hint of hangover, came to say goodbye to Liu Yu, saying that he wanted to go early and return early, so as not to have fun and not be able to enjoy it.
Liu Yu didn't do anything about Cao De, because Liu Yu was afraid that Cao De, who had been charmed, would draw his sword because of Cao Cao's disrespectful words to Liu Yu. Of course, Liu Yu was not afraid that the Cao brothers would kill each other, but that someone would see through the thaumaturgy of Liu Yu's charm technique, which would attract some reclusive characters to bring him unnecessary trouble and danger. So Liu Yu just used his huge spiritual power to subtly influence Cao De, making him feel that Liu Yu was very righteous and a good friend, and then let him go back to Chang'an.
Liu Yu wanted someone to say Liu Yu's rights and wrongs in front of Cao De. I'm afraid I'll touch a gray nose. As long as he thought that Cao Cao told Cao De about Liu Yu's sinister intentions and Cao De showed an expression of "you are lying, I don't believe it at all", Liu Yu wanted to laugh a few times.
In the following days, Liu Yu returned to a state of idleness. Because he was embarrassed to disturb the busy Liu Yu and them, the bored Liu Yu could only enter the palace to prepare to instruct Liu Wei, the emperor who was slightly inclined to martial arts, to practice.
As expected, he found Liu Wei who was feeding several palace guards in the training ground, and made a silent gesture to a few guards, eunuchs and palace maids who wanted to salute him, and then stood quietly and watched. Although Liu Wei has not practiced martial arts for a long time, and his skills are not profound, let alone the experience of really fighting with people, but now looking at his rigorous moves and the appearance of advancing and retreating, Liu Yu can't help but praise the word "good" loudly next to him.
After hearing Liu Yu's voice. Liu Wei and the palace guards invariably stopped and looked at Liu Yu, and saw that it was really Liu Yu. Liu Wei's face suddenly smiled, and in the respectful greetings of the palace guards, he jumped up in front of Liu Yu without the emperor's frame, and said happily: "Uncle, why do you have time to come and see me?" ”
When talking to Liu Yu in private. This kid never called himself "I". used to be afraid of Liu Yu, a well-known and powerful relative, but now he really regards Liu Yu as a kind and kind elder. Because in Liu Yu's heart, his identity is only Liu Yu's nephew, not the emperor, so in private, Liu Yu scolds when he scolds, and beats when he beats. Of course, in his spare time when he is reading and practicing, Liu Yu will also tell him some martial arts fantasy stories or classic jokes that he has seen in books and on the Internet before. So this kid is almost closer to Liu Yu than to his mother now!
Looking at Liu Wei's expression, Liu Yu couldn't help but smile and said, "I haven't seen you for two months, let's see if you're lazy today!" ”
"There is the care of Aunt Niang and Aunt Yan. How could I be lazy? Liu Wei first pouted and expressed a slight dissatisfaction with the two women who were harshly disciplining him, and then his expression changed, and he said triumphantly: "My current 'Emei Jiuyang Gong' has been practiced to the realm of 'Six Yang Guild Leader'!" ”
Liu Yu was slightly taken aback after hearing his words. I couldn't help but ask with confirmation, "Bian'er, are you telling the truth?" Your 'Emei Jiuyang Gong' has reached the second realm? ”
Perhaps it was Liu Yu's skeptical attitude that stimulated Liu Wei, and the almost seventeen-year-old boy pouted like a seven-year-old child, and said with a faint hint of dissatisfaction in his tone: "If you don't believe it, uncle, then Wei'er will give you a drill." After saying that, he turned to a wooden figure a foot away to cheer up his luck, when his face was red. Liu Yu has already confirmed that his 'Emei Jiuyang Gong' has indeed reached the second realm. As Liu Wei exhaled, a column of qi exuding scorching heat gushed out from his palm. It hit the wooden man at a speed of more than 100 meters per second, and the wooden man that was hit exploded into a burst of red light before turning into a pile of coke that was still billowing green smoke.
Liu Yu and the guards, eunuchs, and palace maids all applauded loudly, Liu Yu nodded and said in a slightly amazed tone: "Two months ago, you were still in the realm of 'Sanyang Kaitai', I originally thought that it would take you at least half a year to break through to the second realm, but I didn't expect you to enter the hall so quickly, it's really good!" ”
I have to say that Liu Wei is indeed a martial arts wizard, especially since his physique is fire, which is especially suitable for cultivating the Pure Yang Internal Strength Method, so he will progress so fast. Speaking of which, Liu Yu's apprentices seem to be all highly qualified characters, and they all get twice the result with half the effort when they cultivate martial arts......
Liu Wei, who was praised by Liu Yu, was first overjoyed, and then looked at Liu Yu with a sneering expression. Liu Yu smiled at him, then patted his head regardless of dignity, and said in a harmonious voice: "Just say what you want, my uncle won't bite you!" ”
Liu Wei was relieved when he heard Liu Yu's amusement, and regardless of the emperor's image, he scratched his head and said with some flattery: "Uncle, this internal martial arts you taught me is indeed powerful, but its name is too ordinary. 'Emei Jiuyang Gong' 'Emei Jiuyang Gong', listen to it, this is not majestic at all! ”
Liu Yu asked with a little amusement: "Oh, then what kind of name should you give to this internal martial arts method to be majestic enough?" ”
Liu Wei said with some excitement: "Uncle." What do you think of the name 'Jiuyang Shengong'? Is it majestic enough? ”
Liu Yu's cheeks twitched, but looking at Liu Wei's hopeful look, Liu Yu simply fulfilled him. The left and right are just a name: "Okay, in the future, this 'Emei Jiuyang Gong' will be officially renamed 'Jiuyang Shengong'!" ”
"Thank you, uncle!" Seeing that Liu Yu agreed to his proposal, Liu Wei jumped up happily.
Looking at his undignified appearance, Liu Yu couldn't help but laugh and scolded: "Look at your monkey-like appearance, you don't look like an emperor at all, if you let important ministers like Zheng Xuan and Lu Zhi who pay attention to virtue see it, you will have to be beaten again!" ”
Liu Wei smiled a little embarrassedly when he heard this. With some flattering justification, he said: "I have always pretended to be very serious in front of them, and I don't dare to laugh casually even in front of the queen mother." Only with an approachable and amiable elder like you, uncle. I can relax my mind and laugh freely! ”
Liu Yu knocked on his head again, and said with a smile: "Okay, you don't have to pat on the back again." It's rare that I have time to enter the palace once, so if you have any questions, just ask them quickly! ”
I thought about it for a while. Liu Wei shook his head at Liu Yu. Liu Yu couldn't help but be taken aback and said, "No, you don't have any martial arts questions to ask me?" "Genius isn't this genius method, right?
Liu Wei showed his trademark shy smile again, and said: "Of course, I have encountered martial arts difficulties, but uncle, you have been running around for most of the past year, and when you returned to Luoyang, the queen mother was afraid that I would disturb your rest, so I was not allowed to take the initiative to go to the Prime Minister's Mansion to find you, so I could only ask the palace guards those martial arts difficulties." ”
When did the martial arts literacy of those palace guards be so high that they could explain the difficulties of martial arts for Liu Wei?
Perhaps seeing the doubts in Liu Yu's heart, Liu Wei continued without waiting for Liu Yu to ask: "Although those palace guards can answer some of the martial arts questions for me, there are still many questions that even they themselves are confused. Just when I was at a loss. Uncle, you recommended Miss Lin Pingzhi to enter the palace as the head of the inner house, but she took the initiative to find me and explained to me in detail the various martial arts difficulties I encountered. ”
Speaking of this, a flash of brilliance flashed in Liu Wei's eyes. He said with a slightly excited expression: "Uncle, do you know, Lin Pingzhi's martial arts are the most powerful I have ever seen besides you and Wang Yue!" When you went to Hanoi last year to defend against Yuan Shao, nearly 30 masters infiltrated the palace and tried to assassinate me and the queen mother. When I heard the news, I was very excited and wanted to test the power of the 'Nine Yang Divine Skill', but when I saw it, I realized that none of these assassins could be dealt with by me. But these masters were killed by Chief Lin Pingzhi in a few breaths like local chickens and dogs, and five of the most powerful assassins wanted to join hands to besiege Chief Lin. was killed by her with an embroidery needle in less than a pillar of incense. I really don't know how such a young manager Lin practiced such a powerful martial arts, I really admire her to death! ”
Lin Pingzhi girl? It's Zhao Zhong! Didn't last year's assassin incident mean that the assassins were wiped out without even touching Liu Wei's dormitory? Then how could Liu Wei appear at such a dangerous scene of fighting? Hmph, those guys...... Forget it, it's all in the past, and there's no point in holding you accountable now, that's it! Well, speaking of which, Lin Pingzhi really has the qualifications to explain all kinds of martial arts difficulties for Liu Bian. You must know that her martial arts took forty years to create after reading the royal Musashi, and even Wang Yue is inferior to her martial arts literacy......
Since there is nothing wrong with him, then Liu Yu will not have much to do. After Liu Wei changed his clothes, Liu Yu and he came to a pavilion, and the accompanying eunuchs immediately laid brocade mats on the stone benches, and when they sat down, the harem ladies offered them freshly brewed hot tea and small snacks refined in the imperial dining room, and Liu Yu and Liu Wei chatted so casually.
After a while, a wonderful figure walked into Liu Yu's line of sight. Liu Yu looked at it fixedly, and it turned out to be a graceful woman who was as beautiful as a peach blossom, about twenty-six or seventeen years old, and her body revealed all kinds of styles. This beautiful woman walked up to Liu Yu, looked directly at Liu Yu with big eyes full of reverence, bent down, opened her mouth lightly, and said in a coquettish voice: "Slave Lin Pingzhi, participate in Xiangye!" ”
Looking at this guy who is more "woman" than a real woman, Liu Yu sighed secretly and then deliberately gloomy face, and asked in a slightly angry voice, "Where did you go just now?" Didn't I tell you? The most important responsibility of you, the head of the Great Interior, is to protect the emperor, how dare you not take my words to heart? ”
Lin Pingzhi was startled, and her big eyes were immediately filled with mist. She knelt on the ground and said in a trembling voice: "The slave deserves to die, please forgive the master!" ”
Liu Wei next to him probably couldn't stand it anymore, he interjected: "Uncle is angry, Manager Lin is not derelict in her duties, she will leave just now after receiving the order of the queen mother!" ”
"Your mother's will?" After listening to Liu Wei's words, Liu Yu suddenly thought of a strange thing about He Lingsi, that is, Liu Yu has rarely been able to see her in recent months. You must know that in the past, He Lingsi came to the Prime Minister's Mansion almost every day to find Liu Xuan and them. Ask Liu Yu about them, but they only laughed and didn't say anything. Now it's time to ask Lin Pingzhi: "What is the Queen Mother looking for you to do?" ”
Lin Pingzhi didn't care that Liu Yu had wronged her, she looked up at Liu Yu with adoring eyes, and said softly: "The Queen Mother wants the slave to teach her martial arts." ”
Has He Lingsi also started practicing martial arts? It turns out that she rarely comes to the Prime Minister's Mansion for this reason, and I used to think that she was suddenly afraid of others gossiping! Idle is idle anyway. Why don't you go and see her! Thinking of this, Liu Yu said to Lin Pingzhi: "Okay, you can find someone to take me to the place where the Queen Mother practiced to have a look!" ”
When Lin Pingzhi heard this, she recommended herself: "It's better to let the slave maid take the master to see the Queen Mother!" ”
Liu Yu shook his hand and said, "Your responsibility is to protect the emperor, and it is better to leave the small matter of leading the way to others to do it!" ”
##########################################################
Walking into the imperial garden, I saw a stone room located in the middle of a hundred flowers from a distance, and the palace maid who led the way bowed down and said: "Xiangye, usually the queen mother will go to that stone room to practice after asking Lin Pingzhi, the manager. However, the Queen Mother has explained. Slaves and maids are not allowed to approach at will, so the slaves and maids can only bring the Xiangye here, and they hope that the Xiangye will forgive their sins! ”
Liu Yu nodded understandingly. With a wave of her hand, the maid stepped back, and then approached the stone chamber alone. When the guards, eunuchs, and palace maids who were waiting around the stone room saw Liu Yu, they all knelt on the ground and greeted loudly. Liu Yu asked them all to get up, and then glanced at it, and immediately found a personal female official of He Lingsi in it, so Liu Yu asked her: "Is the Queen Mother inside?" ”
The female officer replied respectfully, "Return to the Prime Minister." The Queen Mother has been in for half an hour and has never come out! ”
Liu Yu nodded. Just as he was about to push the door in, the female official stepped forward and stopped: "Xiangye, the Queen Mother is practicing internal skills inside, don't be disturbed, you better wait outside!" ”
Liu Yu glanced at her coldly, and said lightly: "Could it be that the prime minister doesn't know these taboos?" You don't need to say more, step aside! ”
The female officer who was stared at by Liu Yu trembled slightly, trembling and wanting to speak again, and finally retreated with a helpless expression.
Liu Yu pushed open the precious sandalwood door, walked in, closed the door, and then bypassed the exquisite screen at the entrance of the hall, and saw He Lingsi in the room at a glance who was closing his eyes and exercising. Although the light in the stone room was relatively dim, with Liu Yu's eyesight, he could still clearly see that He Lingsi, who was sitting on a side of jade, was naked!
Liu Yu finally knew why the female official had the audacity to stop Liu Yu, but it was too late, and it was not good for Liu Yu to go out now. Liu Yu felt embarrassed in his heart, but his eyes fell on the defenseless He Lingsi as if he was attracted by a powerful magnet......
I don't know when Liu Yu actually walked to He Lingsi's side and admired this wonderful body art up close. Just as Liu Yu was gradually becoming addicted, He Lingsi's somewhat rapid breathing suddenly sounded in his ears. At this time, Liu Yu suddenly became vigilant, how could a person who cultivated the internal strength heart method have a situation of poor breathing? Could it be that you have gone crazy?
Liu Yu, who was startled, immediately came behind He Lingsi and put his palm on her vest, wanting to use his skills to suppress her out-of-control true qi. What made Liu Yu strange was that no true qi was found in He Lingsi's meridians. Isn't it, it's actually broken so quickly? Liu Yu was surprised and puzzled to convey internal force throughout her body, and found that the meridians where she passed were safe and sound, and finally she was surprised to sense a trace of true qi in her lower dantian, although the amount was small, but it was the slightest sign of chaos in her own right. (To be continued)
