Chapter 148: The Call of Luoyang
It's autumn, the scorching hot weather has finally cooled down, especially in the early morning, there is even a slight chill, but the jade isozi at this time is hot enough, not only the forehead is covered with fine and dense sweat beads, but the whole body is even more hidden heat in the steaming, so that the air around the body is rippling faintly watery ripples, although the hand holding the sword is as stable as before, but the sudden green tendons unmistakably show the nervous mood of the jade isozi.
Pressure, huge pressure, even if Yu Isozi's martial arts are superb, but under the huge pressure, but like ordinary people, he was forced to sweat all over his body, of course, under the traction of the qi engine, his opponent, a tall and handsome young man, was also not happy, sweating through his clothes, not to mention, the heat on the top of his head was even more steaming like a cloud, but the hand holding the knife was stable and abnormal, and there was not even a trace of shaking.
Confrontation after confrontation, the fierce qi machine is entangled, and there is a faint sound of wind and thunder roaring, which can be described as terrifying, but the two sides of the confrontation are unmoved, no one has the intention of taking the first shot, just staring at each other silently, and each other's momentum is constantly improving in this confrontation, intensifying.
A breeze blew, and a fallen leaf rolled up from nowhere, floating heavily, spiraling towards the space where the two sides confronted, and in just a moment, it was shattered by the violent qi, and the fragile balance was broken in an instant, and almost at the same time, the two sides of the confrontation launched an attack at the same time.
"Look at the sword!"
Yu Isozi is ruthless by nature, this time when he saw the fighter appear, he was unceremoniously, he roared, the long sword in his hand was led, and a move "Changhong through the sun" was attacked and killed like lightning, and the sword qi was like a rainbow overflowing with murderous aura, and the momentum was unstoppable.
"Slash!"
Yu Isozi's movements are not unpleasant, the sword is already thunderous as soon as he moves, but he is fast, and his opponent is faster, but under a violent roar, a violent sword light has split the space like a galaxy upside down, and in just a flash, it has already assaulted in front of Yu Isozi.
"Qiang, Qiang......"
Yu Isozi obviously didn't expect the opponent's momentum to be so fast, he was taken aback, he didn't care about attacking the other party again, the long sword swung, and hurriedly switched from attack to defense, a move "Long River Sunset" tightly guarded the perimeter of the body, and between a few breaths, the sword light and sword shadow collided together rapidly, and a burst of loud noises erupted, sparks splashed, and figures flew over.
"Good boy, come again!"
After a hard encounter, Rao is Yuisozi martial arts are superb, caught off guard, and was shocked to staggered back five steps, only then did he barely stabilize his body, he couldn't help but be furious, roared, raised his sword and was about to pounce again, but the opponent didn't give him this opportunity at all, haha laughed, put away the knife and retreated, made a grimace, and the empty left finger tapped the left shoulder of Yuisozi.
"Fucking bad luck!" Yu Isozi followed the other party's gesture and glanced at his shoulder, and immediately saw that the Taoist robe on his shoulder had broken a big hole at some point, and his face became ugly, and after cursing a voice, he glared at the opponent angrily, and said stupidly: "This time it doesn't count, the poor road is careless for a while, come again, come again." ”
"Senior brother, once called careless, twice called careless, and three times called not paying attention, how many times have you been called?"
The handsome young man laughed, waved his hand proudly, and teased Yuisozi.
"Church apprentices die master, bad luck, bad luck! You've won! ”
Yu Isozi was suffocated and her face was red and purple, and she glared at the other party angrily, but unfortunately she was greeted with a more smug smile from the other party, and in desperation, she had to admit defeat in shame.
"Hahaha......"
Needless to say, this tall and handsome young man is Li Xian, the king of Zhou, four years, since he began to practice internal skills with Yu Isozi, it has been more than four years now, Li Xian, who is only sixteen years old, with his extraordinary talent and hard-working tenacity, martial arts have finally become successful, not only immediately kung fu, but even the nine-layer "Tianxing Gong" taught by Yujizi has also been cultivated to the peak of the eighth layer, and may break into the realm of Dacheng at any time. Li Xian finally turned over the salted fish, and after Yu Isozi personally admitted defeat, Li Xian couldn't help but laugh proudly, and laughed so much that Yu Isozi was stupid, and at the end, he had no choice but to laugh with himself.
"Your Highness, the Qincha has arrived outside the gate, please go and receive the order."
Just as the two brothers were laughing, Gao Miao hurriedly rushed in from the gate of the garden, rushed to Li Xian, and reported with a pant.
"Oh?"
As soon as he heard that the holy decree had arrived, Li Xian's eyelids couldn't help jumping, and he whispered, but there was no indication on the side, just nodded at Yu Isozi, which was regarded as a greeting, and then turned around and strode towards the backyard. Although most of them are not very high-level people, and there are not many henchmen who can have the qualifications to go to the court, compared to the two brothers, the overall power seems to be at a disadvantage, but in fact, Li Xian's connections are already all over the yamen, given the time, it is not difficult to turn his hands into clouds and cover his hands into rain, it can be said that Li Xian has lived a free and fulfilling life in the past three years, but this quiet life is obviously coming to an end - although Li Xian does not know what is written in that holy decree, but there is a vague premonition in his heart.
"The Son of Heaven has an edict saying: Li Xian, the king of Zhou, is young and wise, and he is able to say that he is an adult, and he should get married...... I will go to Luoyang to meet you immediately. Seeing that the incense case had been prepared, the Zhou Wangfu knelt on the ground, and Sun Quanfu, the newly promoted eunuch in charge of the Liangyi Palace, coughed a throat, slowly unfolded the holy decree in his hand, and procrastinated according to the script.
What the? Marriage? I'll it! As soon as Li Xian heard that this holy decree was such a reason, he couldn't help but be stunned, and a smiling face like a flower slowly emerged from the bottom of his heart, and it was already vivid in a hazy way - Zhao Qiong, the second daughter of Zhao Mingquan, the young Yin of Luoyang Mansion, that is, Li Xian's wife in his previous life, was married for only a few years, and was given death by the ruthless old thief wife of the Empress Wu, the crime? Groundless!
"Your Highness, Your Highness."
Sun Quanfu finished announcing his will, but he didn't see Li Xian open his mouth to thank him for a long time, so he had to call out twice in a low voice.
"Thanksgiving, long live my emperor, long live, long live!"
Being mentioned by Sun Quanfu like this, Li Xian's body was shocked, he had woken up from his memories, he hurriedly thanked him respectfully, stretched out his hands to take the holy decree, stood up, and then handed the holy decree to Gao Miao, who was waiting on the side, his hand shook, and a pre-prepared Baiguan flying bill in his sleeve had slipped into his palm.
"Father-in-law Sun has worked hard from afar, and a wine feast has been prepared in the little prince's mansion, and I invite my father-in-law to appreciate it." Li Xian greeted with a smile, and with a flick of his fingers, he flicked the folded flying banknote into Sun Quanfu's sleeve without a trace.
"Your Highness is polite, the old slave thanks His Highness for his kindness, but His Majesty and Niangniang are still waiting for a response, the old slave does not dare to delay more, and I also ask His Highness Haihan to be one." Sun Quanfu is a henchman of the Empress Wu, and he knows that the master in front of him has always been not quite on the right path with the Empress Wu, how can he be too affectionate with Li Xian, but he doesn't dare to offend Li Xian, a prince with a ruthless reputation.
"It's okay, Grandpa Sun is busy with business, and Xiao Wang doesn't want to disturb him too much, but, well, it's just that Xiao Wang still has a question, and he asks Grandpa Sun to teach him." Li Xian's invitation to the banquet was just polite, and seeing that Sun Quanfu was unwilling, he would not force him to stay, so he said a word.
"Don't dare, don't dare, Your Highness, but if you ask, the old slave doesn't dare not answer." Although Sun Quanfu wanted to leave quickly, Li Xian had a question to ask, and he didn't dare not answer, so he bowed down politely and accepted it with a full mouth, but his face was obviously not too natural.
"Hehe, there is Lao Sun's father-in-law, Xiao Wang just wants to know in advance which family his father and mother are the candidates for Xiao Wang, and ask his father-in-law to give a letter." Li Xiangan laughed twice, and asked with a hint of embarrassment.
"This ......"
Since ancient times, the prince's marriage has been decided by the emperor, and the princes have never been allowed to ask about this matter, obviously, Li Xian's question is a bit overdone, but in front of Li Xian, Sun Quanfu did not dare to point out this, obviously hesitated, and was about to say that he didn't know, but when he saw Li Xian's eyes swept over like a knife, Sun Quanfu's heart immediately "sighed", and the words of shirk had already reached his mouth, but he didn't dare to say that he would come out, twisted twice, and then replied in a low voice with a bitter face:" Before the slave maid came, I heard that there were three candidates, it seems that it is the second daughter of the living lang Wang Chengjia, the eldest daughter of Zhan Shisi Zhiluquan, and then the eldest granddaughter of Chen Xi, the military superintendent. ”
I've got some stuff for Lao Tzu, all of them are the daughters of petty bureaucrats, damn old thieves, it's not your turn to decide Lao Tzu's marriage! When Li Xian heard that there was no Zhao Qiong, his heart immediately felt as if he had knocked over the five-flavor bottle, and he cursed secretly, but his face was faint, and he didn't even have any expression, so he nodded casually, and he knew it.
"Your Highness stays, and the old slave takes his leave."
Sun Quanfu didn't want to stay any longer for a moment, and seeing that Li Xian didn't mean to ask any further, he hurriedly bowed down and hurriedly left.
Qiong'er, you wait, Lone will go to Luoyang. Li Xian didn't say anything to keep Sun Quanfu, but just stood at the gate of the mansion in a daze, but his mind had already flown to Luoyang City......
