Chapter 72 Facing the Battle

Banana was three steps behind Du Rui.

He vaguely remembered that there was an old eunuch who said before, saying that he was serving the nobles, and he couldn't follow too closely, in case the nobles suddenly stopped or turned around, and he couldn't follow too far, if it was too far, the nobles didn't have time to step forward if they had any orders, and some nobles were anxious and would be disgusted with you because of this little thing, so three steps are the best, and three steps are just right.

Therefore, Banana drew a gourd in the same way and followed Du Rui three steps behind.

He walked tremblingly, lowered his head, calculated the distance between himself and Du Rui, and occasionally, glanced up at Du Rui to see if the other party had any instructions, if not, he continued to bow his head and calculate the distance.

When Du Rui stopped, he took a step forward, almost bumped into Du Rui, hurriedly retracted his steps, and took another step back.

When Du Hu roared and rushed over, Banana was terrified.

At that moment, his heartbeat sounded like a continuous thunder that kept exploding in his chest, sweating like pulp, his legs went limp, and his whole body trembled, like a malaria person trembling uncontrollably.

He had no other way to deal with power and violence than to endure it.

However, for some reason, a stream of heat rushed up from the center of his feet, which gave him courage, he gritted his teeth, rushed forward, and blocked Du Rui, his hands wide open to the sides, like an old hen protecting her chicks in front of a goshawk.

Du Hu's figure became bigger and bigger under his eyes, and the face that looked extremely hideous because of anger and smugness was particularly eye-catching, and Banana was frightened again, and he couldn't help but close his eyes, looking ridiculous.

Du Rui's face was pale and his eyes were blazing.

He silently took a few steps forward, bypassed the banana in front of him, and continued to walk forward, the steps were not big, as if measured, each step was the same distance, in the eyes of Ding Sanshi on the side, he was like walking on the river embankment in the twilight, the whole posture was light and breezy, not nervous at all, not at all like he was about to fight with someone.

Normally, he should swing out of the box, put on a non-chosen, and wait for his opponent to rush over.

Of course, this is a very reactive way of coping.

If you are smart enough, you should rush forward in small steps, rush towards the opponent, and collide with the opponent in the middle, so that you can use the power of the forward rush to offset the opponent's momentum.

Ding Sanshi took two steps forward and grabbed the banana with his eyes closed.

Separated by four or five zhang, the qi of the old eunuch on the opposite side is still involved with him, as long as Ding Sanshi has the move to help Du Rui forward, the old eunuch on the other side will make a move, the distance of four or five zhang, for those of them who have opened up the Great Zhou Tian between the second-rate and the first-class, it is not an unreachable moat, and they can arrive in one breath.

Du Rui still walked forward, walking as if no one was around.

A few of Du Hu's companions watched it, and some couldn't help but cover their eyes, in that person's heart, Du Rui was sick.

After all, as long as it is a normal person, he will not do this, even if he is as stubborn as Du Hu, he does not dare to skip class when he enters the Sword Palace for the first time, and even if he wants to teach Du Rui a lesson now, even if he knows that the other party is in the library pavilion, he only gathered everyone to rush over after taking class. Now Du Rui's state is obviously not right, facing the menacing Du Hu, as long as he is a normal person, he will choose to be nervous and guarded.

Du Rui looked at it but was not nervous at all, and his posture was like that of a great grandmaster.

Looking at Du Rui's posture, the nameless fire in Du Amber's heart rose even more!

Is this looking down on me?

There have always been rumors that Du Rui is an unborn genius, and there is a congenital master like Xue Zhuo under his hands, it is true that Xue Zhuo was already at the end of the crossbow at that time, and was killed by his sneak attack, however, more than 20 days later, he was in the market, in full view of everyone, killed two killers who intended to assassinate him, of course, those two killers were not very powerful masters.

In this regard, Du Hu was skeptical.

He was originally a guy who hit the south wall and didn't look back, in his opinion, even if the rumors were true, he could do it if he was himself.

Yes, Du Hu is very talented in martial arts, these more than ten princes, there is only one person who can make him sincerely admire his martial arts talent, that is Du Yun, the king of Yan, he once provoked the other party and wanted to bully this guy who was a few months older than Du Rui, because it was a private contest, not many people knew about it, and the result was very sad, he was beaten by this brother who was three years younger than him.

After the first beating, he was not convinced.

After that, every time he learned a kung fu, he would go to Du Yun to compete.

At the beginning, he still planned to beat the other party, but in the future, it became a learning mode, and sometimes, he would even be excited because of Du Yun's guidance, and under Du Yun's guidance, he was able to easily break through the difficulties. He admitted that there are geniuses in the world, and Du Yun is one of them, not only in martial arts practice, but at the age of ten, he has already opened up the Great Zhou Tian, and he has also read a lot of books, he can almost be regarded as a special one, except for the sixth layer, the Scripture Pavilion will be open to him.

Du Yun, the king of Yan, is the son of Empress Guo and has two older brothers, however, he is not without opportunities.

The crown prince Du Xian was born with a unique gift, as the eldest son of Yingzong, there is naturally a group of people to follow, especially the Guo family gate, which is the most solid foundation of the prince, after adulthood, Du Xian left the school palace and began to take turns in the six departments, mastering the basic operation rules of the court, and after that, he entered the Shangshu Hall and prepared for the succession.

Unfortunately, an assassination killed him.

Now, the crown prince Du Xian has been tossing and turning on the sickbed for a long time, and there is a doctor on call at any time, and he has to drink a lot of medicinal juices and pills every day, and use those very precious medicinal materials to hang his life. Important ceremonies such as the emperor's birthday, the queen's birthday, and the ceremonies of worshipping the heavens sometimes can't be seen, and even if he appears, he is supported by the eunuchs with a pale face, and he just leaves after showing up.

It can be said that although Du Xian is the crown prince, in fact, he is very far away from the throne.

To some extent, he might even go to Huangquan Jiuyou one step earlier than Yingzong.

The reason why he still sits in the position of the crown prince is just that Yingzong doesn't want his sons to fight too fiercely, so he stands on the stage as a target, and Yingzong feels that he is still young and can live for a long time, and there is no need to determine the heir.

Now, the two most likely to become crown princes are two.

One of them is Du Tao, the third son of the emperor, the biological son of Empress Guo, the brother of the crown prince Du Xian, and the brother of Du Yun, the king of Yan. After entering the Sixth Division, he won the support of a group of academy disciples, believing that he knew the words of the sages and had the way to govern the country.

The second person is Du Xu, the second son of the emperor, the same age as the crown prince Du Xian, his mother was born in the Jingzhao Gu family, in the harem, although she is not as good as Queen Guo, but she has her own sphere of influence, if it is not necessary, Queen Guo will not interfere too much in the affairs of the other party's sphere of influence.

Now, the Guanzhong Four Gate Valve Group, headed by Guo.

However, when it is the turn of the strong foundation, it is still the Gu family that is respected.

Even the Du clan of the royal family, before they rose up, they also relied on the Gu clan to survive, if it were not for the support of the Gu clan, the Du clan who migrated from the Western Regions at that time would not be able to gain a foothold in Guanzhong at all.

At the beginning, Taizu raised troops and received the full support of the Gu family.

The Gu family contributed money and food, and in the Taizu army, there were many Gu children, and their number was not less than that of the Du family, so after the founding of the People's Republic of China, the prime minister at that time was the Gu family. When Taizong's palace changed, the Gu family stood on the side of the prince, and was suppressed to a certain extent afterwards, and Taizong canceled the post of prime minister and divided the position of prime minister into three parts.

Zhongshu Province, responsible for drafting government decrees.

Shangshu Province, responsible for the management of government affairs.

The Ministry of Men is responsible for reviewing government decrees.

Now, after a hundred years of vicissitudes, Shangshu Province is basically in the hands of Jingzhao Gu, even if it is the Guo family, it cannot shake the power of the Gu family in this regard, even if Shangshuling is not a person from the Gu family, most of the officials in the entire Shangshu Hall are from Jingzhao Gu, if you are not a member of the Gu family, but you are an official in Shangshutang, you don't know the details of those people under your hands at all, you will often find that you are always tied to do things by yourself, and it is difficult to succeed.

Therefore, Du Xu, the Junnan Jun who is now walking in Shangshutang, is also a strong contender for the crown prince.

Throne?

Prince?

Du Hu didn't want to hear such words.

He knew very well that those two positions had nothing to do with him!

As long as he has the blood of Fan Yanglu, it is impossible to become the prince, at the beginning, the situation when the Kwantung rebels entered Guanzhong, most of the people in Guanzhong have the impression that they will never allow a Du family with the blood of Kwantung to become a treasure, not to mention, he is still the blood of Fan Yanglu, Fan Yanglu is the mastermind behind the original Kwantung rebellion.

If it weren't for the one surnamed Lu on the top of the Jade Emperor of Taishan, Fan Yang Lu would have been wiped out a long time ago.

Du Hu has anger in his heart!

All this time, this anger burned in the bottom of his heart, making him miserable!

He had to do something to get out of the rage so that he could ease the pain a little.

Yes, this anger cannot be completely resolved, he cannot find a solution, he can only put it off by venting.

"Bah......"

Du Hu roared, the whole person jumped in the air, his right hand drew a half circle on the top of his head, snorted the ground, and slashed down, like a heavy short whip, when it fell, the air seemed to be torn, let out a piercing scream, and fled to both sides.

Three Yang Whips!

This is a kung fu that Du Hu cultivates.

It is said that it is a whip, but it is actually a fist and foot kung fu, every punch, every kick, is pumped out, the true qi is wrapped in the fists and feet, if it hits the opponent, it is like a whip, hence the name.

These three yang whips came from the Kanto region and were taught by the old eunuchs.
