Chapter 101: Congratulatory Gifts

Sun Lutang, as the first master officially recognized by the Qing Dynasty, a national-level strategic force, and a figure like Optimus Pillar, it is naturally not a trivial matter to receive apprentices, and the ceremony is quite grand, and the road from the capital to Leiyin Mountain was busy early in the morning.

Huang Shang received the invitation, and even invited Xiaoxiao, Gu Xi, and Liu Yin to the list, and arrived at the Sun's dojo early in the morning, Yu Zhenbei didn't seem to have woken up from the shock, and wanted to kneel down to thank Daen, but he hurriedly supported him.

The group entered the dojo, there were already many people inside, Sun Cunzhou greeted him, handed over the welcome task to the senior brothers, led to Zhou Liang's side, introduced the three girls to each other, chatted, and the topic gradually shifted to the Japanese mission.

“…… The Datong Daily reported that a few days ago, we were attacked by local thugs in the concession of Hokkaido, Japan, and the relationship was strained. ”

"A friend of mine from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs revealed that it seems that Yuan Gong built the bridge, and there is a high-level Japanese side that wants to ease relations between the two countries......"

"I heard that the Japanese deputy envoy has arrived in the capital?"

"Well, I arrived yesterday, a left deputy envoy, come over first......"

"What are the likelihood of war breaking out, according to the two of you?"

"More than seventy percent, this mission is afraid that it is a suspicious tactic to paralyze us."

"The two countries are at war, what is the use of these tricks? It makes people laugh ......"

The time gradually moved, the hall was full of people, there was no shortage of many big people in Beijing, Huang Shang rarely knew each other, just asked for advice, Sun Cunzhou and a few people were well-informed, and they came together by singing guests.

……

The sound of singing and singing continued for more than half an hour, almost all the big people with heads and faces in Yanjing City, and more than 20 people came from Shan Guoshi, but the leaders of the two parties did not come in person, and they only sent people to congratulate them as if they had made an appointment. Every time they arrived, Sun Cunzhou and Liu Yin took turns to introduce, Gu Xi and Zhou Liang occasionally added, and Huang Sheng listened to it with an eye-opener, and gradually grasped the delicate situation between the government and the opposition.

Yu Zhenbei's father wore a dark purple silk coat and stood beside his son happily, and a group of adults who usually couldn't see it rushed over to say hello, smiling happily, nodding their heads, and shaking away the miserable appearance of the blue nose and swollen face that night when they were beaten by the Fuhu Gang.

Before the auspicious time arrived, a group of distinguished guests accompanied Sun Lutang to drink tea in the back hall, the front hall was mostly young people, and the atmosphere gradually became lively.

There were also a few female students from Mulan Girls' School who came with their parents and elders to say hello, but they were students in Huangshang's Western swordsmanship class, and sisters Lu Yanyu and Lu Xiaocha also came. There are also Tan Sitong's three daughters, Tan Jing, Tan Ying, and Tan Yu, three sisters, these three were born to Tan Sitong and the three wives, and they are deeply loved by today's queens.

Huang Shang does not have to salute, this is one of the privileges of the countryman.

Unconsciously, their small group has also become huge, three princesses, two scattered people, one national scholar, and the rest of Gu Xi, Liu Yin, and Lu sisters are all beautiful and moving, with good temperament, which is quite eye-catching.

Liu Yin took the lead, more than a dozen girls chattered and talked in a whisper, the three of them were on the side, and a young man walked straight up, and said with a smile: "Cun Zhou, good brother, it turns out that you are hiding here, so you can live freely." "Punch in.

Sun Cunzhou bumped his fist with the comer, and said with a smile: "When did Mu Xia come?" Introduced to both sides: "This is the jade-faced tiger Han Muxia, chivalrous and courageous, and the first hero among us." This is the youngest national soldier in our Qing Dynasty, Gu Bei, young and promising, both civil and military. You guys make out and make out. ”

This is the third "Wusan person" that Huang Shang met, quite curious, under the scrutiny, Han Muxia is worthy of the title of the jade-faced tiger, with a long body, gentle and gentle, and a strong atmosphere. The two of them hugged their fists and talked for a while, and they both felt that the other party talked extraordinary, and there was a lot of article in their chests. Han Muxia smiled apologetically and said: "I still have an embarrassing thing today, Li Jinglin asked me to be a broker and asked Gu Guoshi for something, he said that as long as Brother Gu is willing to pay it back, there will be heavy thanks, and all the Li Mansion is up to the countryman to take, and there is no other word." ”

Sun Cunzhou frowned and said, "Mu Xia, why do you bother to speak for him, that thing is not his, why do you still say it?" He instructed the Fuhu Gang to find Senior Brother Yu, and I haven't settled accounts with him yet! ”

Zhou Liang also said lightly: "Li Jinglin has always been cold and arrogant, why is this so polite, isn't it a salute first and then a soldier?" ”

According to what Huang Shang has just heard and heard, the old party is headed by Zhang Zhidong, Yuan Shikai, and Rong Lu, and it also has its own factions inside, among which Li Jinglin belongs to the Yuan family, Li Yaochen and Han Muxia belong to the Zhang family, and Rong Lu is a Manchu minister.

Han Muxia said helplessly: "I was also held on my head, I owe a personal favor, but I can't push it, how is Brother Gu's respect?" ”

Huang Shang said: "It's not that the little brother dares to push back Brother Han's good intentions, it's really that the thing is temporarily borrowed by others, not owned by me, and I will pay it back in the future, so how can I pay the law?" ”

Han Muxia sighed: "That being the case, I replied to him, but I was afraid that he would not take a break easily." Save for a week and borrow your home phone for use. He walked aside, picked up the wooden phone, shook the number, waited for a while, whispered a few words, hung up and came back, and said, "Jinglin seems to want to come by himself." ”

Sun Cunzhou snorted: "It's good to come, I want to vent my anger for Senior Brother Yu and weigh the power of Qinglian Sword Song!" ”

Huang Shang said: "Today is festive, not suitable for swordsmen." ”

Zhou Liang said: "Blowing nonsense, you have only practiced the Ding Jia Sutra wherever you go." ”

Han Muxia said: "After all, you are a guest, can you, as a host, still beat people out?" ”

Sun Cunzhou glared and said, "You guys! ”

The day is approaching, the auspicious time is coming, a group of distinguished guests accompanied Sun Lutang out, in the middle of the hall a wide five, seven zhang long crimson carpet spread, next to two sour jujube wood large circle of chairs, all the adults have sitting, a group of young juniors stand behind. There is a Taishi chair in the front square, Sun Lutang sits on it, and there are two portraits of the emperor and queen of heaven hanging on the back wall, Zhuang Ji, Liang Qingya, Sheng Xuan, and Sun Cun's four big disciples stand on both sides, the breath is calm, solemn and solemn.

Yu Zhenbei entered from the main gate, brought a cup of hot tea, came to Sun Lutang, knelt down on his knees, respectfully respected, kowtowed, and said, "Disciple knocks to see Master." ”

He has a good capital in the day, and after the fruit of life washed by the marrow, the whole person was reborn, and he worked hard for a month, and practiced the nine-style dragon and tiger fist seal to a small success. Sun Lutang was originally a good disciple of the swordsmanship, and he was very happy, smiled and took the tea, and helped Yu Zhenbei to say: "The disciple is up, and he has entered my door, and he should keep in mind the eight characters: the great man of chivalry, for the country and the people." ”

"Remember." Yu Zhenbei was full of excitement and responded loudly.

The room burst into thunderous applause, and congratulations came one after another.

As soon as these eight characters came out, Huang Sheng asked in a low voice on the side: "Cun Zhou, your admonition is broad-minded and decent, and the little brother admires it." ”

Sun Cunzhou replied: "These eight words were given to his father by Tan Gong after the war in the First Sino-Japanese War. ”

At this moment, a voice came from outside the hall, Ling Li Qingyue, like a sword groaning, suppressed the voices of the whole hall and reached everyone's ears.

"Li Jinglin congratulates Sun Shaobao on receiving a good apprentice!"

The voice came very quickly, the words were clear, the front and back words were stacked, almost like heavy waves, rolling in, almost at the same time as the last word, shooting a line of blue light in mid-air, falling in the hall, a young man appeared, expressionless, breathing, sharp, the whole person seemed to be a sharp blade out of the sheath, cutting people's ears and eyes.

This appearance was very impressive, and the room was quiet.

The rest of the Sun family is either an elder brother and should not come forward, or his cultivation status is not enough, and his identity is not equal, only Sun Cunzhou is suitable, he came out of the crowd and said lightly: "Lord Li is so big, please inside." ”

Li Jinglin held an iron box, waved his hand and threw it on the welcome case, walked straight forward, and bowed his hand to Sun Lutang: "I have seen Master Sun, all the senior brothers." ”

The Wusan people had all practiced in the Sun Family Dojo, and it was so called by him, Sun Lutang bowed his head slightly and said: "I haven't seen you for many days, and Jinglin's swordsmanship has become more and more sophisticated. ”

Yu Zhenbei stared at him, his fists clenched, Sun Cunzhou glanced at him and said, "Master Li is here, isn't it going to forcibly take away my little junior brother's sword book again?" Li Jinglin's eyes swept over the two, and he bowed slightly and said: "A few days ago, Li was not strict in discipline, and his subordinates acted without authorization, which was offensive, and I hope Senior Brother Yu will forgive me." ”

Yu Zhenbei's face turned red, and Sun Cunzhou said coldly: "So rude, just lightly expose a sentence of lax discipline?" ”

Li Jinglin said lightly: "Anyone who has entered the Yu Mansion is missing an eye. ”

At this time, the singer's voice trembled slightly: "Li Jinglin, the left commander of the middle base battalion, has nine eyes——"
