Chapter 148: Martial Arts Canon (I)
There are nearly 100 people on the bluestone platform on the top of Yihui Mountain, sitting in the area of Qi, Wei, Chen and Shu.
Dongfang sat beside Shu'er and muttered dissatisfiedly: "Why is there only the position of the four countries?" I'm embarrassed to set up a seat in Chu alone. Alas, if I had been born a few years earlier, I might have been able to qualify for this grand 'contest'! ”
Shu'er has recognized Xiao Xun as his father-in-law, and at this time he is sitting in one of the top positions in the Qi region, with Dongfang Xun on the left and Xiao Xun on the right. She smiled at Dongfang and said: "You are qualified to come to see this 'Four Nations Election Competition' that has nothing to do with you, you should already be glad." Since ancient times, the grand competitions have been held by gangs in the rivers and lakes. Many times, if you don't belong to a certain gang or faction, you don't know the time and place of that competition, how can you watch it? Not only have you come to see it now, but you have also mixed in a good position next to your sister and me, just watch it well and apply what you have learned. ”
Dongfang shook his head and sighed: "How can I, my sister who recognizes relatives indiscriminately, understand the grand ambition of 'good men in all directions'? Although I am already ecstatic to be able to watch such a grand competition, and it is not a private competition of the gangs in the rivers and lakes, but an official competition held by the King of Shu, you can understand that I can only watch but cannot participate in the competition...... Itchy and unbearable? I also grew up in the barracks of the Shengwang Army, from childhood to adulthood, which competition I can only watch but can't participate in? But at this moment, I am obviously gearing up, but I can only sit next to you and whimper! ”
Shu'er said: "This 'contest to select generals', the selection is the vanguard generals of the alliance of Qi, Wei, Chen, and Shu, even if you participate in the competition, even if you win the ranking, can you still stay and be the general of Qi?" He whispered again, "Even if you want to stay and help us, your father won't agree." ”
Dongfang looked around excitedly, but he kept sighing. In order to appease his heart that was determined to be in all directions but whimpered, Shu'er had no choice but to put the Huaiwang Sword in front of him and said, "Huaiwang Sword is for you to play!" Cheer up, watch well, and learn something, and it's worth the trip. ”
Dongfang took the Huaiwang Sword in his hand, and he was a little more steady. He raised his sword slightly and shook it calmly at Zhuge who was sitting at the front of the Patriotic Area opposite. Zhuge nodded at him with a calm smile.
Dongfang asked Shu'er: "Sister Yan, you have been in the Chen State for many years, and you can see the envoys and generals of the Chen State sitting over there?" ”
Shu'er glanced at those Chen Guoren, and had no acquaintances, and replied: "I was an honest businessman when I was in Chen Guo, and I only dealt with businessmen, and at most I would only deal with some wives and ladies in the families of Wenchen and military generals, and as for Chen Guo's Wenchen and military generals, I really don't know any of them." However, according to my guess, the two courteous envoys sent by King Chen were indeed envoys, but the people of Chen Guo who came to participate in the competition were not the best generals of Chen State. ”
Dongfang nodded and said: "I also think that the group of Chen Guoren who can fight and kick over there seem to be casual and unruly, but they look like rangers in the rivers and lakes, and they don't have the slightest military spirit." It seems that King Chen is not too concerned about these four ** alliances. But didn't King Chen come to see Song Guo unpleasantly? Such an excellent opportunity, the four countries formed an alliance to attack the Song State, why did King Chen put up a shelf? ”
Shu'er said: "In recent years, the barbarians of the Rong tribe outside the Guanxi have become stronger and stronger, from occasionally going to the border of Chen Rong to loot people's houses in the past, to now daring to raise troops to attack the border city of Chen State, the forces outside the Jinyang Pass are actually not to be underestimated. King Chen may want to keep Chen Guoneng's military generals who are good at fighting to help him protect his family and country, instead of going to the Song State to attack cities and plunder land. ”
Dongfang said: "I see. Chen and Chu were thousands of miles apart, and Chu was too busy to take care of itself, so he really didn't expect that the forces of the Rong clan outside the Guanwai would contain Chen Guo. However, it is okay if King Chen is unwilling to contribute, after all, if Chen sends heavy troops again, no matter how diligent the King of Song is, it will be difficult to stop such a mighty four-nation alliance. If the Song State is destroyed, I am afraid that the Chu State will not be spared. ”
Shu'er said firmly: "The Song State will not be destroyed, and the Chu State is unlikely to have anything to do with this matter. The allied forces of the four countries only helped Qi Wei and the two countries to recover the lost territory and rebuild their homeland. This war begins and ends with the restoration of the country. ”
The two were chatting attentively, only to see the king of Shu striding from the Renxuan Hall to the center of the bluestone platform. The sword on his waist is similar to the Huaiwang Sword in Dongfang Shou's hand, very similar. Shu'er felt that what the King of Shu was wearing today was probably also a sword forged by Meng Lin, the defender of the country.
More than 100 people on the bluestone platform saw the King of Shu coming, and they all sat up straight, ready to listen to the teachings of the King of Shu respectfully.
The black evil spun around at random, grinning at Shikoku.
Xiao Xun sat on the other side of Shu'er and said to Shu'er: "Spin around, just smile." So concisely and quickly beckoned the envoys of the four kingdoms, and only this unruly King of Shu could do it. In fact, Brother Wu's unruly temperament is worth learning. You call me 'Father-in-law', but I am not a capable person in civil and martial arts, and what I can teach you is really limited. But fortunately, I am an elder and have lived longer than you, and I can still teach you some of the principles of being a man. ”
Shu'er said: "I must remember the truth that my father-in-law taught me." ”
Xiao Xun nodded and said, "You are a smart and clever girl, and you do things neatly." If you can learn this 'informal' quality from the King of Shu, you will definitely be able to achieve great things in the future." Although as a woman, it is difficult to be informal, but my father-in-law feels that you will not be an ordinary woman in the world, and you don't have to stick to the ordinary 'subsections' of the world. ”
Shu'er said with a smile: "Actually, some time ago, he teased me, saying that I was a little similar to His Royal Highness the King of Shu when I was talking nonsense." I do appreciate the temperament of His Royal Highness the King of Shu. ”
Xiao Xun said: "The vast majority of those in high positions have been covered by the glitz of the world. Brother Wu has been on the throne of the King of Shu for more than ten years, but he can still maintain his true temperament, and live like the 'Ranger Prince' as always, which is not easy. You have to remember that people are as precious as their hearts. No matter when, where, under any circumstances, or making any decision, you must first ask yourself whether you are worthy of your heart. As long as you are worthy of your own heart, even if you go against the rules, even if there are tens of millions of people who oppose it, you must have the courage to do your own thing. ”
Shu'er said: "Father-in-law, I understand. Compared with the 'original heart', everything else is 'subsections'. ”
Dongfang Chou heard the conversation between Shu'er and Xiao Xun, and at this time he turned his head over Shu'er, and said to Xiao Xun hopefully: "Uncle Xiao, although Chou'er did not recognize his father-in-law with my sister, he also wanted to call you 'Uncle Xiao' like Brother Rong." I wonder if Uncle Xiao has anything to teach me? ”
Shu'er smiled and said to Xiao Xun: "My little brother has been studious since he was a child, and he has great ambitions, and he is known as 'a good man with ambitions in all directions'. ”
Xiao Xun said with a smile: "A good man's ambition is not something that can be accomplished with a few words. After the contest of the four countries is over, your uncle can teach you how to play chess. A good man must be brave and resourceful. ”
When Dongfang heard that the prince of Qi was willing to play chess with him, he smiled happily and said in Shu'er's ear: "You have recognized a good father-in-law!" My father also often taught me that a good man must be brave and resourceful.
