Chapter 194: Another General
In the evening, in order to welcome Xu Jingzong's return, Li Jiancheng specially set up a grand banquet and invited the officials of the old ministry in Chang'an and the former Shizi's mansion to come over. Fastest update access: ΡΡΡ.79XS.ΡΠΞ. Celebrate Xu Jingzong. After Xu Jingzong's calculations of Dou Jiande, Liu Wuzhou and Wang Shichong, Li Jiancheng felt that among his advisers, compared with Huang Wenqing and Di Zhixun, Xu Jingzong's vision was broader, and he was more ruthless than Fang Xuanlin and Du Ruhui, and they never concealed their admiration and admiration for Xu Jingzong at the banquet, of course, there were also people who did not accept Xu Jingzong's anger. Li Jiancheng saw a sturdy young man beside Xu Jingzong, he was wearing an ordinary people's short shirt, although his face was slightly immature, but judging from the temperament on his body, he was a person who often practiced martial arts:
"Mr. Jingzong, who is the young man next to you?"
"Your Highness, this is the minister's righteous son - Xu Kanling. Kan Ling, come, see Your Highness! β
"Minister, see Your Highness!"
"Get up, please!" Li Jiancheng took a closer look at Kan Ling after he approached, and saw that his face was quite delicate, but there was a kind of disguised fierceness between his actions and gestures.
"Kan Leng, depending on your figure, have you ever practiced martial arts before?"
"Xiaochen has never practiced martial arts, but he has the strength to do some farm work since he was a child." Kan Ling didn't speak again after speaking, lowered his head, and didn't look at Li Jiancheng. Xu Jingzong 'interjected' from the side and said:
"Your Highness has good eyesight, that Kan Ling is a natural divine power, he once fought hundreds of thieves with two Mo knives, and he retreated with his whole body, without a single scar on his body."
"Father-in-law!" Kan Ling wanted to stop Xu Jingzong, but he seemed to feel disrespectful to his elders like this, so he lowered his head again. When Li Jiancheng saw Kan Ling like this, he had eight points of liking in his heart. Just as he was about to say something, he heard an unconvinced voice coming over:
"What, just such a little white face, still able to resist hundreds of thieves and retreat, and uninjured, I don't believe it first! Kan Leng! Do you dare to fight a certain family? β
"Yes! It's the mule that the horse pulls out to slip around, so that everyone can be convinced. Li Jiancheng could hear the voice of Xiong Kuohai and Qu Tushou. But he didn't stop it, because he also wanted to know how many catties and taels this Kan Ling had.
"Your Highness, the sword has no eyes, the old man saw that there was a pair of big lions at the entrance of the 'gate' of the East Palace, weighing about a thousand catties, why don't the two of them lift a stone lion from the 'gate' to here, and then move back intact?"
"Good! It's rare that everyone is here today, people are so together, and it's such a festive day, I have never met an opponent in the majestic sea, so I will give everyone 'Lu' and 'Lu' hands to help the fun. Brother Kan Ling, I'm waiting for you at the 'gate'. Kan Ling looked at Xu Jingzong embarrassedly:
"Father-in-law!"
"Go ahead! Don't lose your father's face, it's also for you to earn face, and your mother will be proud of you. Xu Jingzong poured himself a glass of wine, Kan Ling listened to Xu Jingzong's words, blushed, and followed Xiong Kuohai to the 'door' of the East Palace. Xiong Kuohai first put his 'trousers' pockets into his pocket, his upper body was naked, he hugged the stone lion with both hands, his anger sank into the dantian, and a heavy thunderstorm shouted from his mouth. I heard him yell: "Get up! The heavy stone lion was lifted above his head by him. Xiong Kuohai didn't speak, his face was swollen and red, Kan Ling rushed to the other stone lion, tightened his belt, grabbed the stone lion with one hand, his black face turned purple, roared angrily, and lifted the stone lion high above his head. In an instant, the surrounding onlookers let out a burst of exclamations. I thought that Xiong Kuohai raised the stone ox with both hands, which was already amazing, but how did he know that this one was even more powerful, and he raised the stone lion with one hand. He walked like a fly, and chased towards the majestic sea. Xiong Dahai also heard Kan Leng's words, turned his head to look, and was suddenly shocked in his heart.
"Little white face, don't be complacent, if you raise it with one hand, I can't lift it?" As he spoke, he let go of one hand, held the stone lion in one hand, and said loudly:
"I can not only lift a stone lion, but also throw a ...... Little white face, dare to give it a try? After Xiong Kuohai finished speaking, he threw the stone lion in his hand into the air, changed his hand to catch it, and there was no stagnation under his feet.
Kan Ling said: "What's so difficult about this? I can't help but be able to throw and catch, and I can dance the stone lion......" Kan Ling was shouted by the majestic sea with a small white face, and he also had the idea of fighting bravely in his heart. Li Jiancheng didn't expect that he would be able to see such a strange scene today, and the two of them were evenly matched. Speak out and stop:
"Two strong men, stop!" When Xiong Kuohai and Kan Ling heard Li Jiancheng's shout, they both gently put down the stone lion in their hands.
"The two strong men are both good skills, come on! Ten taels of gold were given to Lord Xiong Kuohai and Lord Kan Ling. β
"Thank you, Prince." Xiong Kuohai happily thanked him, but Kan Ling just kowtowed respectfully to Li Jiancheng. Not much to say. In the evening, Li Jiancheng left Xu Jingzong alone:
"Mr. Jingzong, you are outside these days, can you tell me about your righteous son?"
"Yes! Your Highness! In Xu Jingzong's description, Li Jiancheng knew that Xu Jingzong traveled in the south of the Yangtze River a few years ago, and was injured by robbers on the road, and was rescued by Kan Ling, and later Kan Ling's mother fell ill, Xu Jingzong had practiced the art of Qi Huang when he was young, and used his medical knowledge to cure Kan Ling's mother's old disease, Kan Ling changed his surname to Xu surname in order to repay his kindness, and worshiped Xu Jingzong as his father-in-law.
"Hey! His Royal Highness the Prince, the minister sometimes thinks about it, I really don't know who is kind to whom! But I can see that Kan Ling is a loving and righteous person. And the martial arts are strong, when he used two Mo knives to resist the bandits, the minister saw it with his own eyes, Wei Chen thought, His Royal Highness is going to become a big thing, this person is a talent, so it is just recommended to His Royal Highness. β
"Mr. Jingzong! Thank you very much! There is also good news for you, my father has now allowed me to officially configure the third master of the crown prince, I don't know Mr. Jingzongγγγγγγ Li Jiancheng was about to continue, but Xu Jingzong interrupted Li Jiancheng's words.
"His Royal Highness the Prince, the most important thing at the moment is to let Kan Ling return to his heart first." In order to let Kan Ling return to his heart, Li Jiancheng took the initiative to reward Xu Jingzong with a big mansion in the name of Xu Jingzong's meritorious service, Xu Jingzong gave a spacious side room to Kan Ling's mother and son to live in, Li Jiancheng often came to visit Kan Ling's mother, and often sent cloth and rice 'meat' to Kan Ling's mother, Kan Ling's mother felt strange:
"Kan Ling's father-in-law, why is this Li Gongzi so good to our mother and son!?"
"Old sister! This Li Gongzi is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the current dynasty, and he is an absolutely good person. β
"Oh! Kan Ling is his father-in-law, but I have only heard that King Qin is a great hero and a good man, this prince γγγγγγγ β
"Old sister, you have to believe me, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is just a low-key person, don't worry, I won't hurt Kan Ling."
"Kan Ling's father-in-law, I believe in you!" With the unremitting efforts of Li Jiancheng and Xu Jingzong, Kan Ling finally willingly accepted the official position granted to him by Li Jiancheng, and Xu Jingzong slowly tasted a trace of the reason why Li Jiancheng was temporarily weak in his dialogue with Kan Ling's mother.
