Chapter 224: Zhu Hongyan's Reason

Hearing Zhu Hongyan's words, Emperor Zhu Tianlong was a little surprised, his daughter actually wanted to learn the art of archery, which made him feel a little caught off guard.

Why do you want to learn archery? Zhu Tianlong was surprised in his heart, thought for a while and said, "Hongyan, give your father a reason why you want to learn archery." ”

Zhu Hongyan thought for a while, and felt that she couldn't directly say her true reasons, after all, what she was worried about might not necessarily happen, it was just an intuitive consideration, it was difficult to gain the trust of others, rather than saying it to cause the other party's unhappiness, it was better to make up a false reason, sometimes it was easier for people to believe that the fake was more than the real one.

There are two kinds of falsehoods in the world, one is to deceive people's eyes, to deceive through resemblance or illusion. One is to deceive people's thinking, to deceive through false news or false speculation.

People are making countless choices throughout their lives, and every choice, whether it is when they are hungry, when they are sleepy, when they are sick, or when they are in a hurry, they are making choices, and every choice is an opportunity to be deceived.

At this moment, Zhu Hongyan's heart moved, and said: "Father, the reason why I want to learn archery is because I don't want to be a delicate princess. ”

Zhu Tianlong listened to Zhu Hongyan's words, his heart moved, and a strange thought flashed in his heart.

"Could it be that she has some big ambitions? No, it's not just big ambitions, maybe she's really quite ......" Zhu Tianlong was shocked in his heart, but he didn't show it, thinking that his only son now is not angry, not only very stupid, but also doesn't learn good things, just nine years old, he was found to peek at the palace maid taking a bath, not once, it really made him speechless, how old is he, that's it, and he will pay it back in the future? If you give him that seat. It is estimated that he either doesn't go to court every day, or he is mediocre and incompetent, let him be the prince? Unless I'm going to die now.

And this daughter of mine is very good. Not only is she smart, but she is also excellent in martial arts, literature, and Jundao, and her various studies are unprecedentedly excellent, if she can keep it up. Or stronger in the future, maybe there can really be a day when you can sit in that position.

Of course, all this requires a premise, and he needs his support.

So is he supporting or blocking?

In terms of jurisprudence, there was no official text stipulating that the throne must be passed to the prince at the time of the founding of the country, but it was just a habit to follow the habits of the previous dynasty, and it was a habit for the throne to be passed on to the prince.

In terms of influence, as long as the royal family itself does not oppose it, then outsiders naturally can't say anything. The rules are set by man, the rules are dead, but man is alive.

These things are a little far away for the time being, and Zhu Tianlong feels that he still thinks about the things in front of him first.

The way of the arrow is the way of assassination, but also the way of war, whether a monarch needs to learn the way of the arrow, it depends on the environment at the time, such as the peace has been hundreds of years now. In these hundreds of years, there have been no wars, and theoretically speaking, there is no need for the monarch to learn the way of arrows. But being prepared for danger in times of peace does not mean that you can rest easy when you are in a state of peace, because war will eventually come, and no matter how much you try to stop it, there is no way to completely eliminate it. It is as if it were an inherent part of the world, and where there is war, there is peace.

Zhu Tianlong pondered for a long time before he said lightly: "Accurate."

This is to show his attitude, and the specific official documents still need to be signed by him in person after he returns, and then arrange for someone to announce the decree and the like, of course, not through the formal decree of the cabinet, but only in the form of a secret decree, and then arrange for the master to secretly protect it.

"Then when can I learn the way of arrows?" Zhu Hongyan said.

"Wait, Father, I will go and arrange it for you, you tell me first, what kind of arrow do you want to learn, among the generals who can be mobilized in the royal capital, there are two people who know the way of arrows, one is Liu Qi, who is proficient in the way of arrows on the battlefield, can fight for a long time, and is extremely accurate, and the other is Long Seventeen, who is one of my secret guards, proficient in assassination arrows, silent arrows, arrows like electricity, one blow kills, which one do you want to learn?" After Zhu Tianlong finished speaking, he looked at Zhu Hongyan.

"I want to learn the way of the battlefield." Zhu Hongyan said.

"Okay, I know, I've written it down, I'm here to see you today, come and walk with me." Zhu Tianlong said.

"Hmm," Zhu Hongyan said with a happy expression.

Three days later, Zhu Hongyan was holding an iron bow in his hand, but he couldn't pull it away, and Liu Qi, who was watching from the side, showed a kind smile on the corner of his mouth, and then said: "The eldest princess is not in a hurry." ”

Zhu Hong's face turned red and said, "This iron bow is too hard, and I'm too small, it's normal that I can't pull it open." ”

In the past three days, Zhu Hongyan has been doing some basic archery practice, and when she really got in touch with the way of archery, she found that the way of archery is not simple.

First of all, if you want to shoot the arrow smoothly, you need to have the strength to pull the iron bow, otherwise you can't shoot the arrow, and you can't talk about the arrow at all.

"This is an exercise called One Qi Decision, you can take it and take a look." Liu Qi took out a booklet prepared in advance, handed it to Zhu Hongyan and said.

Zhu Hongyan took it, then opened it and looked at it, what made her feel unbelievable was that this was actually a secret technique that could increase strength, as long as she practiced this secret technique, her strength would be able to increase, and the initial stage could increase several times, then dozens of times, and finally hundreds of times, and when it reached hundreds of times, it was the peak, and there was no way to continue to increase.

Zhu Hongyan thanked Liu Qi, returned to the palace in the afternoon, and began to try to comprehend this secret technique.

And that night, Emperor Zhu Tianlong knew from the secret agent that Liu Qi had given Zhu Hongyan a secret technique to cultivate, he thought about it again and again, and felt that it was time to talk to Zhu Hongyan about some things, so he sent someone over and called Zhu Hongyan to the imperial study.

"Hongyan, come with me." Zhu Tianlong said, then walked out from behind the seat, came to a bookshelf on the side of the imperial study, twisted several partitions in the bookshelf, and then heard a slight sound of bracketing, and then Zhu Tianlong gently pushed, revealing a secret door behind the bookshelf.

The appearance of the secret door is the same as the wall, it is painted, Zhu Tianlong pushed open the secret door, and then walked in with Zhu Hongyan.

I walked along the passage, and then I walked to a step, and walked down the staircase, and when I came to a long and inclined staircase with a great slope, I continued to go down, and after walking for half an hour, I came to the last place, where the air was cold and cold, and it was a great secret cave.

The father and daughter went down to the secret cave, and then Zhu Tianlong took Zhu Hongyan to an ordinary stone room, and in the stone room, Zhu Hongyan saw many cultivation secret techniques placed on the bookshelves and written in words hundreds of years ago.

"These are the royal collections." Zhu Tianlong said.

"Does my father want me to practice the secret art here?" Zhu Hongyan said.

"Hmm," Zhu Tianlong nodded. (To be continued.) )
