An Hai, the envoy of the palace of the king of Qi, led Li Shimin, Mingyu and Wei Chigong to Li Yuanji's study, served tea and pastries, and then respectfully retired.

After waiting for nearly half an hour, Li Yuanji was late after bathing and changing.

At this time, Li Yuanji's attitude was completely different from when he was acting in the martial arts field, I saw him walking with a smile, and as soon as he came in, he bowed to Li Shimin, and his attitude was very low, and said, "Second brother, I can't stand it today, you also know that when you beat Xiao Yuanji, his personality is irritable and irritable, and he will catch fire." In addition, I am in a depressed mood today, so my attitude is inevitably a little arrogant. Just now I calmed down and thought about it, it's really damned! snubbed the second brother, and I hope the second brother won't be surprised! Then he leaned down and bowed down to plead guilty.

Although Li Yuanji said it beautifully, the expression on his face was also full of expression.

can be seen by Mingyu next to him and frown, this Li Yuanji's attitude is condescending, the contrast is huge, it really makes people feel bottomless. Looking horizontally and vertically, it seems that there is a difference in heart, and there is a strong sense of hypocrisy between the lines.

He hurriedly glanced at Li Shimin, which seemed to be saying, Second Uncle, don't be deceived by him, this person is not a good thing, he is condescending, hypocritical, there must be a ghost in it.

Who is Li Shimin? Never rub sand in his eyes, among the emperors from ancient times to the present, if Li Shimin is among the best when it comes to knowing and employing people, how can he be deceived by Li Yuanji's few nonsense.

However, at this time, it is not the moment to completely turn his face with Li Yuanji, and Li Shimin has to be patient and have a relationship with him.

Hurriedly got up, mixed with his hands, and said with a smile, "Why should Yuanji be like this, we are the same mother, we grew up together, and the second brother naturally knows that you are happy and straightforward." Am I, the elder brother, still serious about you? ”

Li Yuanji got off the donkey, but in fact, he may not be willing to bow down in his heart.

got up with the trend, did not kiss or fake, did not get close to the fake, walked into the house hand in hand with Li Shimin without smiling, and looked at the appearance of a brother and a friend.

After sitting down, Li Yuanji looked at Wei Chi Gong, raised his fingers and praised, "General Wei Chi, good skills!" What a stunt! Let this king open his eyes! Today, I know that there are people outside the world, and in the past, the king sat in the well and watched the sky, and Yelang was arrogant. In my opinion, General Wei Chi's martial arts le dang de can be unparalleled in the world! The king was angry, so his speech was a little harsh. Please also ask General Wei Chi not to blame. ”

Wei Chi smiled honestly, and even said that he didn't dare to dare, the king of Qi was too famous.

Li Yuanji smiled and said, "With General Wei Chi's martial arts, why is he just a small four-rank general now, a general of the palace?" That's it, it just so happens that there is a shortage of right Xiaowei, if this king guarantees you to his father, first go to be a deputy general to boil up his qualifications, and then mention the general after two years of gaining a firm foothold! ”

Depend on! What do I say! This Li Yuanji is really not a good thing! After listening to what he said, Mingyu secretly slandered in his heart, damn, this is digging the foot of the wall in front of Li Shimin! As soon as the price was opened, there were sixteen lieutenant generals, great generals. Directly jumped four levels in a row, and went to Zhengyipin. Li Yuanji is willing to pay the capital, but you want to be blind, if you can be bribed and co-opted, will it still be Wei Chigong!

Sure enough, although Wei Chi Gongren is honest, he is wise and foolish, how can he not hear the meaning of Li Yuanji's words. Wei Chigong didn't want to offend Li Yuanji too much, so he politely refused, "Thank you King Qi for Baoju, but I know my own skills, let me charge into battle, and there is naturally no problem in capturing the flag." Can you arrange the troops and lead the troops, Lao Hei will be blind. Moreover, since he defected to the King of Qin, he has felt deeply gracious, and he has already sworn in his heart that he is willing to serve the King of Qin for the rest of his life! ”

Li Yuanji didn't care too much when he saw that he was decisive, and he regretted that he was too anxious, and asked in front of King Qin, no matter whether people wanted to or not, they would definitely not say it clearly. Li Yuanji's eyes rolled, this matter, and lay the groundwork first, and then talk about it later.

"It's okay, it's okay! Ha ha! It's the same under my second brother, they all work for my Datang! Li Yuanji laughed dryly twice and turned his head to look at Mingyu. As soon as the conversation changed, he deliberately pretended to be stupid, and asked Li Shimin, "Second brother, I just wanted to ask in the martial arts arena, who is this...?" ”

Li Shimin introduced, "Speaking of my own, this is the descendant disciple of your third brother Xuanba, and my name is Li Mingyu." Mingyu, don't come over to give your fourth uncle a gift! ”

Seeing Li Yuanji pretending to be stupid, Li Mingyu secretly pursed his lips, and said in his heart, You really don't know the master? Didn't you inquire when you sent someone to kidnap me?

Even if you didn't know it at the time, and then your dog was slaughtered by me, don't you find out who did it?

Bah! Knowingly asking, deceiving oneself and others, it is very fake, and sure enough, as the master said, this Li Yuanji is hypocritical. Although the boss in his heart was unwilling, because of what Li Shimin said, he had to reluctantly get up, and Shi Li said, "Little nephew Mingyu, I've seen the fourth uncle!" ”

Li Yuanji pretended to be surprised, and said, "Oh, it turns out to be the descendant of the third brother!" My third brother ....."

Mingyu had already been instructed by Li Shimin to hide the mystery of his master's life and death from the outside world. replied, "Master has passed away, and before he died, he specially ordered me to come to Chang'an to join the second uncle!" ”

"Hey! My hard-working third brother! I can't imagine that the farewell of the past year is forever! It's just that the third brother has the same temper as me, stinky and hard, and he can't pull back the nine cows that he recognizes. I had such a stiff quarrel with my eldest brother at the beginning, and I, as a younger brother, really don't know what to say! Speaking of Li Xuanba, Li Yuanji pretended to be a gesture, stretched out his hand to wipe the corners of his eyes, and fakely shed a few crocodile tears.

After Li Mingyu heard this, he lowered his head to block the white eyes that he couldn't help but roll. It's strange to believe in you! Good you Li Yuanji, hypocritical and pretentious.

When the little master didn't know that you and my master had not looked at each other since you were a child, describing passers-by, but at this time, you came over to cry and fake mercy. Still tempered like you? Bah! Stinky and shameless! As far as you are in the position of the evil tiger gang under your command, you will not be clean, and one evil deed after another is heinous, and it is difficult to write a book. Just because of you, you are worthy of being compared to my master?

My master is so upright, a man with the utmost affection, who regards money as dung, wealth as floating clouds, super easy and free, indifferent to fame and fortune, you are a cunning villain, and you are not worthy of lifting shoes for my master!

Li Yuanji felt a few words of brotherly affection, and when he saw that no one responded, he laughed dryly, and said, "Since you call me the fourth uncle, I can't be too stingy as an uncle, so I naturally have to take care of you, otherwise how can I be worthy of the third brother under Jiuquan!" With that, he raised his voice and shouted, "Someone! ”

There was an attendant waiting outside the door, and he hurriedly came in to listen to the dispatch.

Li Yuanji instructed, "Go to the arsenal and get my Hongming sword!" Tell the account office again, take 200 gold, and send it to the Qin Wangfu to buy some application things for Mingyu, which is a little bit of my heart as an uncle. ”

The waiter replied respectfully and hurriedly went down to handle it.

There was not much time, so he took a horizontal knife, held it in both hands and handed it to Li Yuanji.

Li Yuanji took the knife in his hand and said with a smile, "This knife is called Hongming, it is a treasure in the arsenal of the former Sui Imperial Palace, and the master craftsman Yang Guangming spent more than a year of hard work, made of 100 refined steel, blowing hair and breaking hair, and sharpening iron like mud!" Because when it is out of the sheath, the sound is like a wild goose chirping, so it is called Hongming! After that, the thumb pressed the tension spring, the treasure knife was unsheathed, and there was a "cang" sound, and sure enough, the sound was like a goose's cry.

Li Yuanji danced a sword flower casually, and then said, "The second brother knows me, he has loved dancing knives and guns since he was a child, and he loves to collect treasures and swords. This Hongming knife was asked by me for my father, and it has been treasured in the mansion. When I saw Mingyu today, I didn't have much to do as an uncle, so I simply gave this knife away, which can be regarded as a show of affection! ”

Mingyu was also taken aback, but he didn't expect this Li Yuanji to be quite generous, first giving a 200 gold red envelope, and then a 100 refining treasure knife. Although he knew that this Li Yuanji was not well-intentioned, but the treasure knife was scratching his itch, and he sighed a few days ago that there was no guy who could handle it, but he didn't want Li Yuanji to send it to the door today.

Li Yuanji returned the sword to the sheath, and said to Mingyu with a smile, "Come, Mingyu, since you are my third brother's heir, your martial arts should be no different, and this knife is just right for you." In the future, I will use this knife to kill the enemy and make meritorious contributions, and I will be able to live up to the grace of my third brother's teaching. ”

"This...."Mingyu didn't dare to take it without authorization, first, the gift was expensive, and he was afraid that he would have something to do with Li Yuanji after accepting it, which would affect Li Shimin's plan. The second is that Li Yuanji and his master are already like fire and water, and they have sent someone to kidnap him before, so they naturally don't have a good impression of this Li Yuanji in their hearts, and they are not very willing to accept his favor. Therefore, he hesitated for a moment and looked at Li Shimin as if asking for help.

Li Yuanji saw that he didn't come to take the knife, and said, "Don't be polite to your fourth uncle, you are my third brother's apprentice, that is, my apprentice, our family doesn't talk to each other." If you refuse, you will look down on your fourth uncle! ”

Li Shimin's mind was spinning, listening to the meaning of Li Yuanji's words, I sent someone to tie you up before, it was my fault, now I will give you a treasure knife as compensation, let's clear it now.

Li Shimin weighed it, no matter what, at this critical moment, it is better not to force Yuanji too much, to be forgiving, and to accept it when he sees it is good.

Therefore, Li Shimin nodded and said to Mingyu, "Since your fourth uncle has said so, then accept it." Don't thank you Uncle Yet! ”

Li Mingyu listened to Li Shimin's instructions, then took a step forward, stretched out his hand to take the knife, and said, "The elder doesn't dare to resign, Mingyu thanked the fourth uncle!" ”

"yes, that's right!" Li Yuanji laughed and said, "I didn't know that you were my third brother's disciple before, and those who didn't know it were not to blame, but now that I know, the fourth uncle will naturally take good care of you." If you have any difficulties in the future, just come to find your fourth uncle! Don't dare to say anything else, in this Chang'an City, I don't think there is anyone who dares to bully you! ”

Mingyu thanked him again, and at this time he also reacted, Li Yuanji had something to say. I saw that he meant to gag him with this treasure knife and make him stop thinking about the previous things. Hmph, it's so cheap, but since Li Shimin has spoken, the master will accept it first, and it will all be regarded as interest. I'll settle the ledger with you in the future!

Looking at the "Hongming Knife" in his hand, Mingyu also couldn't put it down.

This knife is a standard horizontal knife style in the Sui and Tang dynasties, the knife is three feet three inches long, the handle wrapped in shark skin, the sheath of rosewood, inlaid with gold and jade, and the decoration is gorgeous.

The knife is drawn out of the sheath, the sound is like a loud sound, the blade is like autumn water, and the two-finger half-wide knife can be recognized.

Gently touching the edge with his finger, he felt as if he had been bitten by a mosquito, and a thin line of blood had already appeared on his fingertips. Sure enough, it is a sharp knife that blows off the hair and breaks the hair!

Yo he, I still confess the Lord! Mingyu thought happily.

His idea came from the afterlife. In later generations, there were players in the circle of knife friends, who cut the master with a knife and drank the blood of the master, jokingly called "recognizing the master". Take a good intention, expect to sacrifice the knife with blood, and the edge is even worse!

With a shake of the wrist, like an arm command, I feel that the length is just right. Mingyu was very satisfied, and put the knife into the sheath and put the treasure knife on his waist.

patted the scabbard with his hand, and said in his heart, Hongming knife, Minghong knife, the treasure knife has a spirit, since you recognize the Lord today, then you will follow me in the future! Let's fight in all directions and bloody battlefields! Watch the master use you to kill a piece of the world! Also make a name for yourself! It's not in vain that you follow me!
