Chapter 8: Go out of the palace to see Qin Qiong
During this period, Li Guifei also asked Xia Ren a lot of questions about martial arts, and Xia Ren also answered them one by one, and also asked Li Guifei some questions, and Li Guifei also answered, and the answers were very detailed.
Then Xia Ren had dinner with Li Guifei and Xia Xi, and after dinner, Xia Ren mentioned to Li Guifei that he wanted to go out of the palace.
Concubine Li asked him why he was out of the palace,
Xia Ren said that when he was in class, he always heard how prosperous and fun the summer capital was. So I yearn for it.
Concubine Li pondered for a while, and then promised Xia Ren that he could leave the palace once, but only after refining the body and quenching the skin perfectly.
After hearing this, Xia Ren immediately felt a burst of surprise, and hurriedly thanked Concubine Li.
After all, if he can leave the palace, then his Qin Qiong will be able to see him, since the system summoned Qin Qiong for half a month, Xia Ren often doesn't think about it, he just wants to see him, and now he finally has a chance.
And since Xia Ren practiced martial arts, he also knew how powerful the realm of metamorphosis was, but Qin Qiong was a triple metamorphosis of mortal, which intensified Xia Ren's desire to see Qin Qiong.
In the next half month, Xia Ren practiced martial arts more actively, which made Zhang Linwu very happy for a while, thinking that he had taught him very well.
With a sound of "Peng", Zhang Linwu casually threw away an iron rod that had been bent, and said to Xia Ren: "Your Highness has basically reached perfection after half a month of tempering, and the iron rod will not work, Your Highness can prepare to break through when he will take a medicinal bath." ”
"Thank you Master Zhang for a month's teaching, I'll go recover my qi and blood first, and then I'll go to the medicinal bath to break through. Xia Ren replied.
Then Xia Ren went to stand next to him, and Zhang Linwu looked at Xia Ren's back a little distracted.
Zhang Linwu is also an old man in the palace, he has taught other members of the royal family, and even taught other princes, but he can refine the skin in a month, he has really never seen it, and it usually takes three months to complete.
It takes about three years to refine the body, after all, refining the body is to build the foundation, and pay attention to the foundation. Moreover, when practicing martial arts for the first time, the skin, muscles and bones are very fragile, and they need to be tempered slowly.
"The Seventh Highness will become a great weapon in the future. Zhang Linwu muttered in a low voice.
,,,,
In a side hall of the martial arts training ground, a large wooden barrel was placed in the center of the hall, Xia Ren gritted his teeth, sat in it with a red face, and made the final breakthrough, while Zhang Linwu stood aside and watched, just in case.
At this time, Xia Ren's mind was blank, and he could only mechanically run the breathing method, mobilize his qi and blood with all his might, and carry out the final refining of his skin. He forgot all the pain and the like, and he only knew how to temper, and kept refining in order to achieve ultimate consummation.
As the sound of "boom" sounded in Xia Ren's mind, Xia Ren suddenly came back to his senses, only to feel that his whole body was warm, as if thousands of little hands were massaging, and his whole body was also full of strength, as if a punch could kill a cow.
Immediately, Xia Ren knew that this was his breakthrough to the perfection of skin refining.
Xia Ren stood up from the barrel and found that the skin on his whole body seemed to be emitting a glowing white light, looking as smooth as a baby.
"Is this the consummation of skin refining?" Xia Ren muttered to himself.
"Yes, this is the perfection of skin refining, the skin is as tough as a drum! The bulging of the skin membrane around the body can weaken its own damage, and when it is perfect, ordinary swords, water and fire are difficult to hurt, and every move has the power of a thousand catties. Zhang Linwu stood next to him and replied.
Hearing Zhang Linwu's words, Xia Ren's heart fluctuated for a while!
After all, he was already a superman in his previous life, and here is indeed the starting point of martial arts, and the charm of martial arts is indeed attractive, Xia Ren feels that he already likes this feeling of becoming stronger.
That night, Xia Ren rested early, a month of tempering, not only physically, but also mentally very tired, Xia Ren needs to recover well.
Early the next morning, Xia Ren got up, not that Xia Ren didn't want to sleep, but Xia Ren found that he seemed to be used to getting up early, and he couldn't sleep when he arrived, and he was refining the skin perfectly, and his body was full of energy, so he wouldn't be too tired.
"Little Guizi, prepare the frame, I'm going to Yonghe Palace. After washing, Xia Ren commanded to Xiao Guizi on the side.
Xiao Guizi took the order and left,,,
Yonghe Palace,,
"Mother, mother, I am coming. "Before the person arrives, the sound arrives first.
Xia Ren hurriedly came to Yonghe Palace, just to find Concubine Li Guifei to ask for a token to leave the palace. He was eager to see through Qin Qiong.
"The queen mother is here, what's the matter with coming to the queen mother early in the morning?" Li Guifei, who heard the voice, walked out of the hall.
"Queen Mother, Erchen has finished refining his skin, can the Queen Mother give the palace exit token to Erchen?" Xia Ren replied.
Li Guifei's eyes froze, and she slowly looked at Xia Ren, and then nodded slightly.
Then he threw Xia Ren a token and said with a little sadness: "You came here early in the morning, the queen mother thought you were here to ask for peace, but I didn't expect you to only think about going out of the palace to play, and completely forgot about the queen mother, alas, I feel uncomfortable!"
Xia Ren turned out to be a token, and after listening to Li Guifei's words, he suddenly couldn't cry or laugh, so he had to follow Li Guifei and said: "The queen mother, forgive me, the child is full of yearning for the prosperity of the summer capital, so I am a little anxious, I neglected the queen mother, and I ask the queen mother to forgive, and the child will definitely come to visit the queen mother more in the future." ”
"Okay, if you have this thought, the queen mother will be content, you go out of the palace to play, remember that you must return to the palace before dark, otherwise the queen mother will not be able to explain." Li Guifei waved her hand at Xia Ren.
Xia Ren nodded, and then left.
Looking at Xia Ren's back, Li Guifei was a little distracted, and muttered, "My son Xia Ren has the appearance of a real dragon!"
Then he ordered: "Chun Tao, Xia He, Qiu Ju, Dong Lan, the four of you go to protect Ren'er secretly, don't let people hurt Ren'er's hair." ”
"Yes", the four personal maidservants then chased in the direction of Xia Ren.
At this time, a grandmother next to Concubine Li Guifei stepped forward and said in a low voice: "Niangniang, you sent the four of them to protect the Seventh Highness, in case they are discovered by the Zongren Mansion, it is not easy to explain, after all, the safety of the prince is the responsibility of the Zongren Mansion, if you are like this, they will think that you don't trust them." ”
Concubine Li Guifei waved her hand and said, "It's okay, the Zongren Mansion doesn't dare to say anything, let them come to me if they have a problem, and see how dare they are." ”
Xia Ren didn't know here that Concubine Li had specially sent four people to protect him, and he was now immersed in the scene of what to say after meeting Qin Qiong.
Xiao Guizi held the token, all the way out of the palace from the north gate, the harem is in the north, so there is also a door out of the palace in the north, but it is a small door and does not open the door all year round, except for anyone with a token is not allowed to enter or exit.
This is also for the convenience of the harem nobles, sometimes there will be something novel in the summer capital, and the nobles of the harem will send their palace maids to go out from this door to buy some back.
However, the tokens are all in the hands of the current Xia Emperor, except for some nobles with strong backgrounds in the harem, and the token holder must go back to the palace on the same day, not overnight.
After leaving the palace gate, I changed the normal frame and drove out of the street where the palace was located. Xia Ren suddenly felt that the atmosphere was different, not as quiet and depressing as in the palace. It's full of buzz.
The shouting of the small vendors, the shouting of the second child in the restaurant, the scolding of the old bustard in the green building,,, all kinds of sounds converged into a prosperous scene in the summer capital.
Opening the car curtain, Xia Ren looked outside curiously, Xia Ren hadn't seen what life in the ancient city was like with his own eyes, if he wasn't in a hurry to see Qin Qiong, Xia Ren would have to get out of the car and walk around by himself.
Before leaving the palace, Xia Ren had already asked Xiao Guizi to inquire about the location of Jinxiu Building, so Xia Ren asked Xiao Guizi to go directly to Jinxiu Building.
After more than half an hour, Xia Ren's frame finally arrived at the door of the Splendid Building, Xia Ren asked the groom to go to the back of the Splendid Building to park, and he walked in with Xiao Guizi and a few guards.
Although Jinxiu Building is not the best restaurant in Xia Du, it is also in the forefront, so the decoration is extremely luxurious, with five floors high. The people who came to consume were also some dignitaries and wealthy children, and they would also bring some guards, so Xia Ren's battle did not attract attention.
"Guest officer, how many of you are in the hotel, do you want to stay in the hotel?" Xiao Er saw Xia Ren and the others coming in, and hurriedly stepped forward to greet him.
"Six people, two tables, one room, some signature dishes. Xiao Guizi commanded Xiao Er.
"Okay, guest officer, please come in. Then Xiao Er led Xia Ren and the others to the two tables, and said to Xia Ren: "Wait a minute, the guest officer will bring you the food later." ”
Xia Ren and Xiao Guizi were at the same table, and the four guards were at the same table, during which Xiao Guizi had been telling Xia Ren some strange things about the Xia Capital that he had inquired about.
Xia Ren was a little absent-minded at this time, because he seemed to have sensed that Qin Qiong was in this restaurant, and the characters summoned by the system had a slight connection with Xia Ren, and Xia Ren knew about this.
