Chapter 38: The Competition
Sure enough, as Lu Yunsheng expected, Ji Yun saw Guo Ting's move, and immediately flew to follow, punching in front of him and back, attacking in the direction of the other party.
As soon as Guo Ting got up from the ground, before his footing was stable, Ji Yun had already rushed to the front, and with another palm on his chest, he made a dull collision sound.
The force of this palm is enough to overturn a carriage, Guo Ting's feet have not been completely rooted in the ground, where can he stop it by this blow, at that time, he was hit by Ji Yun again and flew a few steps, and fell directly out of the door of the pharmacy, and the surrounding residents and passers-by heard the movement, and they all stopped and looked sideways.
Guo Ting stood up in embarrassment, patted the dust on his clothes, and then walked back to the store, staring at Ji Yun with an unwilling face.
"I conceded." Ji Yun smiled at Guo Ting and arched his hand.
Guo Ting seemed to struggle inwardly, and finally sighed heavily, and replied: "Alas, Guo is not good at learning and art, and he is not Brother Ji's opponent. ”
Ji Yun said with a smile: "Don't dare, it's just that everyone has a martial arts that they are good at, I heard that your sect has a wind cutting knife method, which is very powerful, Brother Guo can learn to break the cloud palm, naturally he has learned this knife method, if you try to compete with the weapon method that you are not proficient in, brother, I am afraid I will not take any advantage." ”
Guo Ting is a bold person, he saw that Ji Yun was so humble, and his previous unhappiness immediately disappeared, and he said with a smile: "Where is it, Brother Ji has the inheritance of Wuji Sect, even if it is in the sword technique, it must be difficult for me to win." ”
Ji Yun looked at Xiao Chongguang and Lu Yunsheng and asked, "Then Brother Lu, Brother Xiao, who else do you want to compete with?" Then he focused on Lu Yunsheng.
When Yunsheng came into contact with Ji Yun's gaze, he immediately coaxed and said, "Don't look at me, it's not that you don't know that I can't beat you······"
Before he finished speaking, Xiao Chongguang on the side immediately said: "Brother Ji's martial arts are so high that it really opened my eyes. ”
Sogo said as he took a step forward.
Ji Yun immediately felt that the aura exuded by this Xiao Chongguang was not an ordinary person, and secretly said in his heart that this person was not simple, and said in his mouth: "Then please!" ”
Eastern Capital, East City, Yihefang, Prime Minister's Mansion, Xuchu
Cao Zixiao brought a cup of tea and handed it to Liang Ziqing, who was sitting in the main seat of the lobby and was silent: "Prime Minister, since Xiao Chongguang has not learned the kung fu of the Xingyan Sect, you can finally rest assured." Now that I think about it, Xu is Xiao Chongguang's martial arts tricks, which are somewhat similar to that sect. ”
Liang Ziqing impatiently pushed away the tea, and said with a serious face: "Impossible, how could the original appearance misunderstand the "golden silk hand" of the Xingyan Sect, when the Xingyan Sect was conquered in the past, the original appearance had fought with the Yunhe Dao people of the Xingyan Sect for more than 30 rendezvous, and was almost killed by him. Every move made by the Yunhe Dao people is still vividly remembered, and it is impossible to admit mistakes. ”
Zi Xiao frowned puzzledly and said: "But Prime Minister, the 'Spiegel Division' is known as 'collecting the world', even they will ignore it, and there are few things that have not been recorded, in the territory of Chu State, I am afraid there are very few." ”
"Since there are very few, that is, it is possible that Xiao Chongguang can hide the matter of practicing the martial arts of Xingyan Sect so deeply, it is inevitable that there will be an article," Liang Ziqing's pupils shrank, and his eyes were full of fierce light, "I have to find out the details of this person." ”
Cao Zixiao looked at Liang Xiang with a cloudy expression, and he was full of doubts in his heart, he couldn't understand why a prime minister who was an extremely human minister was so afraid of a sect that had disappeared for many years?
He has been a personal guard for many years, and he told himself with professional sensitivity that this matter must have touched the weakness of the prime minister, so even if he is puzzled, he must not ask.
At this time, a servant hurriedly ran into the lobby, knelt down at Liang Ziqing and said, "Prime minister, someone has come to the palace, and he is here to spread the emperor's words." ”
Liang Ziqing was shocked when he heard this, and immediately straightened out the changed clothes, and then said to the servant: "Let them come in." ”
The servant made a "snort" and walked out of the door, and in a short time led three people into the hall.
I saw that the leader in the middle was a eunuch dressed in a purple mink robe and holding a dust, and beside him were two inferior eunuchs wearing thin blue clothes and bowing their heads, who were obviously the subordinates of the purple-clothed eunuch and were waiting with them.
Liang Ziqing recognized the purple-clothed eunuch, who was the current emperor's celebrity, the godson of the attendant eunuch Li Quan, and Liu Ying, the head of the three courtyards in the palace.
This Liu Ying was bought into the palace since he was a child, and was brought up by Li Quan, and now he is in his early twenties, with red lips and white face, and a beautiful face, he has always been smart and clever, sleek and sophisticated, and has won Li Quan's trust and reuse, even Emperor Chu likes this little eunuch very much.
Everyone knows that seeing Liu Ying is like seeing Li Quan's doppelganger, therefore, many officials in the court are afraid of him, afraid that if they are careless, they will offend these half-men and narrow-minded "black shells", they will immediately go to the emperor and say bad things about themselves.
However, Chu Prime Minister Liang Ziqing is an exception, he knew the current Emperor Chu when he was young, he has known each other for many years, he has been born and died for many years, and his love is stronger than Jin, and no one can shake the trust between them, even Li Quan.
However, even if Liang Ziqing's status is impressive, he still wants to win over Li Quan and Liu Ying, after all, if he wants to help King Xin ascend the throne, the forces in the palace are also indispensable.
It's a pity that Li Quan doesn't eat this set at all, and just wants to stay out of the party struggle, so Liang Ziqing can only retreat to the next best thing and recruit Liu Ying. And Liu Ying felt that if she could win the favor of the prime minister, the future would be bright, so she communicated with Liang Ziqing without Li Quan knowing.
"Meet Liang Xiang."
Liu Ying smiled and bowed deeply to Liang Ziqing.
"Liu Bandang doesn't have to be polite, I don't know what Your Majesty has to say?" Liang Ziqing said.
Liu Ying nodded, then cleared her throat, straightened her waist, turned her face to the sky, and saluted with her hand: "Your Majesty will give you an order, and Liang Ziqing will take the order." ”
"Minister Liang Ziqing asked the saint bow."
Liang Ziqing and Cao Zixiao both knelt respectfully to this Liu Ying, and Liu Ying read the dictate of Emperor Chu, as if the emperor was coming in person, he must kneel in peace.
Liu Ying said: "Zhen'an." Your Majesty's edict, now is the time to come, all the ministers are coming, why hasn't the prime minister seen him for a long time? After the birthday feast, no matter how many affairs the prime minister has, he must put it down, go to Yongshou Palace in front of Xuzheng, if it is late, he will be fined three glasses of wine. Chin this. ”
"Minister Liang Ziqing received the order, long live Your Majesty, long live, long live." Liang Ziqing bowed respectfully.
"Xiangye, the will is finished, please get up quickly." Liu Ying helped Liang Ziqing and said.
Liang Ziqing got up and asked, "Liu Bandang, how is Your Majesty feeling now?" ”
Liu Ying smiled and said, "Xiangye is relieved, Your Majesty is in a good mood, but," Speaking of this, he frowned slightly, "It's just that Your Majesty is still complaining about His Royal Highness King Xin hurting His Royal Highness King Huai and the Crown Prince." Xiangye, enter the palace as soon as possible, and use more good words to comfort Your Majesty, otherwise, all your efforts to help His Royal Highness King Xin gain favor before will be in vain. ”
"I know, I know." Liang Ziqing's face was full of worry, "The prime minister will enter the palace immediately, Liu Bandang, you go back quickly, and inquire more about the news of His Royal Highness the king to the prime minister." ”
After that, he took out a bag of ingot gold from his arms and gave it to Liu Ying: "It's hard work for Liu Ying." ”
Liu Ying smiled all over his face, but pretended to refuse: "Xiangye, what are you doing, we are so familiar with each other, don't ······"
"Liu Bandang must accept it," Liang Ziqing interrupted him, "This is a little bit of his heart, and the New Year will be over soon, so it should be a New Year's gift for his companion." ”
"If that's the case, then our family will thank Xiangye."
At this point, Liu Ying no longer shirked, happily accepted it, and then immediately said goodbye to Liang Ziqing and left the Prime Minister's Mansion with two eunuchs.
"Humph! It's really cheap for these "yin and yang people". ”
Cao Zixiao saw that they had gone so far that he couldn't suppress his temper and scolded angrily.
Liang Ziqing said: "Don't be informal, many things in the future will have to be passed on by these 'black shells'." ”
After a pause, he immediately said: "Zixiao, you go and help me prepare the carriage and the birthday gift I prepared in the morning, and leave for the palace immediately." ”
"Whoa."
Cao Zixiao immediately turned around and walked towards the backyard.
Ziqing breathed a long sigh of relief, and said secretly in his heart: "Xiao Chongguang is not reassuring after all, but, one yard is one yard, wait for me to calm down the contradiction between His Majesty and His Royal Highness King Xin, and then slowly check your true face in the future!" ”
Dongdu West City, Guangdefang, Kangzheng Pharmacy, Xuchu
A sharp palm wind whistled past Xiao Chongguang's right cheek, and Sogo leaned to the left, stretched out his arms to protect his head, and narrowly avoided this round of attacks, while his right leg swept and hit Ji Yun who was approaching in front of him.
I saw Ji Yun bend his knees slightly, do a horse step, and the internal force in his body was poured into his legs, as if he had taken root, even if Xiao Chongguang swept away with ten strength, it was like kicking a rock, and it was difficult to shake.
"It's the 'rooted' of the Thirty-six Path Vajra Leg Method of the Wuji Sect! It's amazing. ”
Lu Yunsheng secretly exclaimed. Ji Yun had told him before, and he hadn't really seen it until today.
Seeing that the strong attack failed, Xiao Chongguang had to quickly retract it, so as not to let the opponent see the flaw and be injured.
But Ji Yun had already seen through it, and immediately changed the leg method to "cross-cut stake", his body rotated, his left leg was still in the horse step, and his right leg was straightened, just kicking Xiao Chongguang's waist.
Sogo was in pain, but he still slapped his hands with riveting strength, patting the opponent's shoulder socket, Ji Yun felt that his right arm was sore, and his strength was instantly disassembled, and he was secretly frightened in his heart.
At this time, the two have already met more than 20 times, and they have injured each other, and it is not good to stick to each other.
"This Ji Yun is really amazing!"
Xiao Chongguang admired in his heart, if he could recruit as a helper, he would definitely be a very strong combat force.
"Xiao Chongguang deserves to be the head of the guards, the force is so profound, I can't take advantage of it with all my might! Also, I have been walking the rivers and lakes for many years, but I have never seen his martial arts several roads, I don't know who his teacher is? Ji Yun's heart was turbulent, with amazement and incomprehensible doubts.
