Chapter 43: Conflict between resistance and disrespect
Qin Zhiyong's gaze startled Dong Hancheng, and he calmed down instantly. There were several martial arts masters present, and the old eunuch beside the emperor had sharp eyes, and he was a master of Ouchi. To assassinate now is to kill yourself.
Dong Hancheng retracted the steps he had taken out again.
Qin Zhiyong glanced at the emperor.
He didn't regard the emperor as a high-ranking person, let alone a true son. The emperor was actually just an ordinary person. It's just that he had a good life and was reincarnated into the royal family.
The hearts of the people have reverence and respect for the emperor, and he is the emperor. If there is no reverence in the hearts of the people, the emperor will no longer be the emperor.
In the final analysis, it is a matter of people's hearts.
The contest between Yang Yuqian and Dong Hancheng actually alarmed the emperor and raised this contest to a higher level in an instant. It can be said that whoever wins this competition will be the first person in the martial arts world in Beijing.
People who practice martial arts, except for people like Qin Zhiyong, can't maintain a good attitude in the face of this situation. Even Yang Yuqian and Dong Han can't do it.
No matter what kind of identity they are, they are actually relying on boxing and martial arts. Qin Zhiyong was different, he did not use martial arts as a means of making a living. Therefore, Qin Zhiyong's spirit and boxing skills are more pure than them.
When facing the emperor, even if he is the king of Duan, he is a little restrained. emperor
The emperor doesn't know martial arts, but he has a general trend, which represents the pinnacle of power, and he can follow the law and make rules. No matter how powerful King Duan is, he is just a prince, and the emperor can deprive him of everything he has now with a single sentence.
There are times when power is more powerful than martial arts.
Because of this, the world is chasing power like a moth to a fire.
Qin Zhiyong is not pursuing rights. He explored the Confucian path of sages. The rise and fall of dynasties, the change of dynasties, and the emperors take turns. The pinnacle of power can only be prominent for a while, not for a long time. But the Tao is something that exists forever.
Isn't it foolish not to pursue the eternal things, but to pursue the ephemeral glory?
Learning is knowledge.
But knowledge is not wisdom.
Qin Zhiyong is wiser than others, and understands these truths, he only respects power, and has no fear. Therefore, Qin Zhiyong sat next to the emperor, still calm and unrestrained.
In other words, the emperor's momentum could no longer affect Qin Zhiyong's mind.
The competition between Yang Yuqian and Dong Hancheng finally began.
Qin Zhiyong focused his attention on Dong Hancheng's body, and he hoped to obtain the mystery of Baguazhang through Dong Hancheng's actions and artistic conceptions.
Baguazhang and Taijiquan both belong to the inner family boxing method, and there are many similarities between the two. With Qin Zhiyong's martial arts attainments and eyesight, it is not difficult to find out the essence of Baguazhang.
Dong Hancheng's moves and styles are all natural, showing the offensive and defensive ways of Baguazhang to the fullest. Even Duanwang and Chen Zhengying secretly applauded.
Yang Yuqian's Tai Chi is also not weak.
When Yang Yuqian broke into the tower, he was just entering the realm of the grandmaster. It has only been less than a month, and he can fight with Dong Hancheng inseparably, and he is not equal.
Yang Yuqian's boxing skills grew too fast.
In terms of the purity of boxing, he is not under Chen Zhengying. In terms of comprehensive strength, he has surpassed Chen Zhengying and has achieved the real blue out of the blue and better than the blue.
Qin Zhiyong stared at Dong Hancheng intently, and secretly gestured with his right hand, groping for the mystery of the Baguazhang. His movements and demeanor fell into the eyes of the old eunuch.
The old eunuch whispered in the emperor's ear: "Your Majesty, Mr. Qin is indeed a peerless master. is stronger than Yang Yuqian and Dong Hancheng's martial arts. ”
Ginger is still old and spicy.
The old eunuch is well-informed and has profound skills. Ordinary people can't see the details of Qin Zhiyong. Duanwang often competed with Qin Zhiyong, and he didn't know the true depth of Qin Zhiyong's martial arts.
However, the old eunuch saw some clues and found that Qin Zhiyong was a peerless master, much stronger than a martial arts master.
This is not surprising, though. In any dynasty, there are always a few outstanding figures. And this old eunuch beside the emperor is one of the outstanding figures.
The Confucian method of self-cultivation has existed for thousands of years, and it was not the first creation of Qin Zhiyong.
Qin Zhiyong followed in the footsteps of the ancient sages and explored the Great Dao, and the theories he obtained were actually just "picking up people's teeth and wisdom". It's not very clever.
If he wants to create his own ideological system and philosophical system, Qin Zhiyong does not have so much wisdom and ability.
The emperor glanced at Qin Zhiyong and said, "Qin Zhiyong is a guest of Duanwang's Mansion, and his martial arts are strong, and I know it." It is said that he is also the teacher of Yongning's girl. Yongning has been talking and doing things more calmly than before, and it seems that Qin Zhiyong is indeed a learned person. Yang Yuqian and Dong Hancheng's competition is over, you send a message to Qin Zhiyong. ”
The old eunuch nodded and said, "The slave takes the order." ”
………………
Yang Yuqian and Dong Hancheng competed and did not distinguish the winner.
Both King Rong and Yongning Gege proposed to the emperor not to fight any further, otherwise, there would be casualties.
The contest is over.
The emperor had just left, and the crowd had not yet dispersed.
The old eunuch walked to Qin Zhiyong's side and said, "Mr. Qin, the emperor has a message for the old slave to bring to you." ”
Qin Zhiyong stood up, clenched his fists and said, "I don't know what the emperor commands?" ”
The old eunuch said: "With Mr. Qin's martial arts and knowledge, I was wronged to stay in Duanwang's Mansion as a guest. The emperor planned to let Mr. Qin enter the court as an official, serve the court, and teach a few elder brothers to read by the way. ”
The tone of the old eunuch's speech was not to discuss with Qin Zhiyong, but with an ordered tone.
Who would dare to disobey the emperor's dictation?
It's a pity that the old eunuch met Qin Zhiyong.
Qin Zhiyong really refused: "Father-in-law, the emperor's kindness, Qin Mou understands it." Qin is self-aware, not an official. What kind of identity are the elder brothers, a certain Taoist priest of Qin, who is shallow in his learning, and he does not dare to mislead people's children. ”
After practicing his internal strength, Qin Zhiyong plans to leave the capital in the near future and continue to study, explore knowledge, and temper his mind. At this time, the emperor let himself enter the palace as an official, and the pope was studying, of course Qin Zhiyong was unwilling.
To be a person and do things, we must follow our hearts.
If you force yourself, stay in the capital, and do things that you resist in your heart, it will be contrary to the concept of "unity of knowledge and action". At that time, Qin Zhiyong's spiritual cultivation will not be diligent, and he may even retreat. Qin Zhiyong will never allow this kind of situation to happen.
The old eunuch stared at Qin Zhiyong in disbelief and said, "Mr. Qin, what do you mean, rejecting the emperor?" You've figured it out. ”
Qin Zhiyong said with a smile: "I think very clearly. Qin is used to being idle and wild, and he really can't be an official. Qin was unwilling to enter the court as an official, did he not violate the laws of the Qing Dynasty? If the father-in-law goes back and doesn't explain to the emperor, Qin can go and explain to the emperor in person. ”
Whether Qin Zhiyong's approach violated the laws of the Qing Dynasty, the old eunuch didn't know. But the emperor's will cannot be refuted by others.
The old eunuch's eyes narrowed, and he said coldly, "Mr. Qin, you are really bold. If you dare to resist and disobey, you know the consequences. ”
Qin Zhiyong clenched his fists and said respectfully: "Father-in-law, Qin still has something to deal with." I took my leave. ”
Qin Zhiyong turned around and left.
The old eunuch's face was very ugly, staring at Qin Zhiyong's back, annoyed and angry, and finally broke out. He reached out his claws and grabbed Qin Zhiyong's back. The claws tore through the air and made a screeching sound.
Qin Zhiyong used his Tai Chi Yun hand to block the old eunuch's attack.
Boom.
Qin Zhiyong borrowed his strength, jumped lightly, and arrived at the martial arts arena.
The old eunuch looks old and lean, but his muscles and bones are strong, and his qi and blood are thicker and fuller than martial arts masters like Yang Yuqian and Dong Hancheng. In terms of strength alone, the old eunuch is not much worse than Qin Zhiyong.
The old eunuch didn't worry about eating and drinking, and only did one thing in his life, serving the emperor. His mind is not scattered, plus he cultivates Taoist excellent kung fu, which is very well maintained, and his physical strength and spirit are at their peak.
Qin Zhiyong was cautious in the face of the old eunuch's attack. If you don't pay attention, you will capsize in the gutter.
The old eunuch saw that Qin Zhiyong was a real master, and Qin Zhiyong also saw at first glance that this old eunuch was not simple. Definitely the top powerhouse among the Ouchi masters.
was attacked by someone, Qin Zhiyong was not angry, showing a profound qi cultivation kung fu. He clenched his fists and said, "Qin doesn't want to clash with anyone. The father-in-law made a sneak attack, he had to force Qin, why bother? ”
The old eunuch sneered: "No one can disobey the order. Let's take it. ”
In the face of the old eunuch's attack, Qin Zhiyong retreated again and again, retreating three times in a row.
"Father-in-law, I've already given you three moves." Qin Zhiyong said, "If you force each other harder, Qin can only offend." ”
The old eunuch is a bit of a deception.
Qin Zhiyong made it clear and was willing to explain to the emperor in person. But he just wouldn't give up.
Qin Zhiyong is kind to others and is unwilling to conflict with others, but it doesn't mean that he is easy to bully.
If he really met someone who was unreasonable, Qin Zhiyong didn't mind using force first, and then reasoning with the other party.
The old eunuch is a person who is very extreme, he only has the emperor in his heart, and he can't tolerate others being disrespectful to the emperor, let alone disobeying the order.
The old eunuch believed that thunder, rain and dew were all gentlemen, and as long as the emperor's will was delivered, whether it was the people or the ministers, they must kneel down and thank him. Anyone in front of the emperor is a slave, and only obedient is the part.
Whoever dares to refute the emperor is a capital offense.
But Qin Zhiyong's thoughts were different from those of the old eunuch. Scholars, cultivating the road of humanity, exploring the knowledge of the world. Scholars should respect their teachers, treat others with courtesy, and also have a backbone.
A true Confucian disciple will not be a slave to anyone.
Qin Zhiyong is a true Confucian disciple.
The old eunuch let out a sharp cry: "Then come." Today, let's take a look, how strong is the famous Mr. Qin's martial arts? ”
When the old eunuch attacked again, Qin Zhiyong did not back down. Instead, he played the "cannon hammer" that is the most rigid and fierce in Taijiquan.
The power of the fist is shocking, and it is very refreshing. This is Qin Zhiyong's first time to show his boxing skills.
Yang Yuqian looked at Qin Zhiyong in shock, this "cannon hammer" was too violent, and he couldn't hit this effect anyway.
Perhaps, ten years later, Yang Yuqian's physical fitness has reached its peak, and he will be able to make such a punch.
