After returning from the expedition, Liu Yi had a month's vacation, and during this month, he did not need to enter the palace on duty, and there were no other tasks, he only went to the Qianniu Weiya after returning to Beijing to report, and then participated in a series of celebrations held by the imperial court.

The other middle and high-ranking generals who went out to fight also enjoyed similar treatment, except for Pei Xingjian, who was the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, who was going to attend the court meeting in ten days.

Liu Yi hopes that in a relatively short period of time, these young people who have combat experience and have very good physical fitness can be trained into special personnel who can perform some special tasks, although this task is somewhat arduous, but Liu Yi must complete it.

There are some special personnel who are loyal to themselves and have very good skills, and in many cases they can rush to a very critical role, and they may not even be able to save their own lives.

In addition to teaching these guards the art of fighting, Liu Yi also taught them some of the skills of the agents, such as the preliminary masquerade technique, and the use of the terrain and terrain of the hidden means, the way of communication between the personnel of the party, intelligence transmission skills, friend and foe identification techniques, assassination, assassination methods training, of course, these methods are taught from person to person, and follow a step-by-step way, special professional skills are taught in the future, some of the special skills that are counted as Liu Yi's housekeeper can only be taught to those who have very good quality, A person who has excellent skills and is absolutely no problem in terms of loyalty.

Of course, when Liu Yi taught these skills, he did not tell the guards that the things he taught were used in special operations or special times, but only told them that they should train the people around them very well, so that they can kill the enemy more bravely during combat.

Liu Yi is still not completely at ease with these selected guards, and he will not tell them his purpose now, probably only Liu Ben and Liu Quan know Liu Yi's purpose. Perhaps he has experienced a lot of things in his later life and has undergone special training, which makes Liu Yi not likely to trust the people around him very much. In fact, the people of this era, especially the private soldiers who belong to the private property of the government, are still very reliable in terms of loyalty, and if anyone wants to betray the Lord and seek glory, it will be shamed by all people.

In addition to stepping up the training of the personal guards around him, Liu Yi was also busy with other things, which made him feel that he was not idle.

In addition to discussing with Pei Xingjian about the military affairs of the expedition to Anbei and the art of war, Liu Yi also had preliminary contact with Pei Xingjian's sons under Pei Xingjian's instructions and accompaniment.

Pei Xingjian's sons are all talented, at least Liu Yi has been in contact for a few days, and I feel that these boys are still quite smart, especially the youngest son Pei Guangting, who is very clever and very impressive at a young age, Liu Yi likes this kid very much, presumably most of Pei Xingjian's excellent genes have been inherited.

Liu Yi also thought that if he had a son and daughter born in the future, would he also have a very good talent? It's not bad to think about it, but I don't know, who will give birth to a son for him, and who will give birth to a son or daughter for him first?

Liu Yi really wants to have children with Shangguan Wan'er, he thinks that his qualifications are not bad, and Shangguan Wan'er is also an extremely good person, so what will the child look like if such excellent genes are passed on to the next generation? It shouldn't be bad.

I have a lot of knowledge in my head that all people don't know nowadays, and there are many professional skills and means, if these things can be passed on to future generations, then the people who are trained will be even better.

But this wish is not easy to achieve, if it is really as Pei Xingjian said, Wu Zetian will marry soon, then the only one who can come out on top and have children with himself first is Princess Taiping, the demon girl.

Princess Taiping didn't come back since the last time she went to the mansion to make a fuss, but just sent someone to inform Liu Yi that she would personally train the few maids sent to the mansion for a few days, and she would let them come to the mansion in a few days, and she would personally send them over.

Liu Yi didn't know, Shangguan Wan'er in the palace knew about it, and if she knew, how would she react.

Liu Yi didn't dare to think about Shangguan Wan'er's reaction when he knew about this, and he also strongly wanted to find an opportunity to tell Shangguan Wan'er about it, so that she could understand that this matter was not what he wanted, and hoped that this beauty would not be angry.

However, Liu Yi knows that it is impossible for Shangguan Wan'er not to be angry, but according to this beauty's surname, when she encounters this kind of thing, she will not necessarily be angry in front of her, but will hold up her anger in her heart, and when it breaks out, she will even betray Liu Yi because of love and hatred, this is the most terrible, Liu Yi doesn't want this kind of thing to happen, it will be very miserable.

Liu Yi was also very angry that Princess Taiping made this trick difficult for him, and he didn't know if Wu Zetian, as Princess Taiping's mother, knew what kind of attitude he had, whether he would scold Princess Taiping and call the maid back.

Princess Taiping gave one of the two personal maids beside her to herself, it is impossible for Wu Zetian not to know such a thing, Liu Yi also hopes that Wu Zetian will know about this matter as soon as possible, from Wu Zetian's reaction to this matter, you can know the attitude of this powerful woman towards Princess Taiping's marriage, if she does not object, it is really as Pei Xingjian said, and she also acquiesced to Princess Taiping's marriage to him, as soon as Liu Yi's filial piety period passed, he would make a decree to marry; If you're angry about it, you'll have a good show.

This matter is destined to be unavoidable, and Liu Yi also calmly waited for a day to see Wu Zetian's attitude towards this matter-

On this day, Liu Yizheng came back from Pei Xingjian's mansion with a few guards, and as soon as he entered the mansion, the housekeeper Li Nian greeted him, and there was a stranger by his side.

Li Nian pointed at the stranger: "Third Young Master, someone has come to look for you, and they have been waiting for you in the mansion for a while!"

Liu Yi looked at this faceless person coldly, thought about it carefully for a while, and was still sure that he had never seen this person, and he was a little strange in his heart, how could Li Nian welcome people into the mansion and let him wait, and guessed that this would definitely not be a simple character.

After Li Nian made an introduction, he retreated knowingly, and ordered the other subordinates to retreat as well.

The stranger stepped forward and saluted Liu Yi respectfully, "General Liu, my master is invited, and I also ask the general to move and see him!"

Liu Yi stared at the middle-aged man in front of him who looked very calm silently, and asked in a light tone, "I don't know who Your Excellency's master is?" Why did you come to my house to ask for it? ”

"Please forgive me, I don't dare to reveal who the master is now, but it must be the person the general wants to see!" Although the man's demeanor was respectful, his tone was neither humble nor arrogant, "My master and the general know each other, and my master also said that the general will definitely go..."

"Oh!" Liu Yi's head turned quickly, guessing who would be so mysterious, but he sent someone to the mansion to invite him, and suddenly thought of a person, and he didn't hesitate at the moment, and said to the person in front of him, "Then please lead the way..."

There is not much reason to think of this person Liu Yi, it is just a knee-jerk reaction.

Liu Yi also immediately ordered several guards who followed him back to the house to follow him out of the house again, and at the same time let someone inform his mother Zhang that he still had something to go out.

The person who came to the mansion to invite him was also on horseback, and there were several other entourages staying not far from Liu's mansion, and these other people were silent, and when they saw Liu Yi, they just came up and saluted, and did not speak.

Liu Yi and his entourage rode a horse to follow behind these mysterious figures, and went to the vicinity of the equally lively East Market, and the people who came led Liu Yi and his entourage to a restaurant called "Ning Cui Ge" and stopped, turned over and dismounted.

Liu Yi's group of guards also dismounted, near the restaurant, Liu Yi found some suspicious people wandering around the side, these people are ordinary people or rich family dress, no different from the guests who haunt the restaurant, but Liu Yi's eyes are different from the eyes of mortals still see the strange, looking at the demeanor of those people, Liu Yi is already sure that he has guessed who invited him is.

Liu Yi also instructed the guards to wait at the edge of the restaurant and not to follow him in, and at the same time told the guards with a special code he had formulated how to respond in case something happened.

Liu Yi taught them the most special skills, special contact methods, and signals, and let them be familiar with and apply them on various occasions.

Liu Yi is confident that if the person who invited him wants to do bad to him, he and the guards who responded can retreat with their whole bodies, as long as this big man does not use the army and ambushes the archers and the like.

Seeing Liu Yi and his entourage coming, he greeted a person from the restaurant, and after greeting the person who came to invite Liu Yi, he came up and saluted Liu Yi: "General Liu, please inside!"

Liu Yi also returned the salute, did not ask, and followed the visitor into the restaurant.

There are a few absurd drinkers in the restaurant, but judging from their demeanor and eyes, they are not ordinary drinkers, they must be subordinates of the person who invited them. When these people saw Liu Yi coming in, they stared at him vigilantly, but there was no other movement.

Liu Yi also paid attention to the movements around him, and if he found something wrong, he would take action immediately.

There was not the slightest murderous intent in the building, Liu Yi followed the person who came out up the stairs and walked to a private room in front of him.

The man walked to the front of the private room, nodded to the few people guarding the door, and asked Liu Yi to wait for a while, he went in to report, and then went over and opened the door of the private room, entered the private room, and soon came out, and made a gesture to Liu Yi to please: "General, please inside..."

Liu Yi nodded slightly, straightened his posture, and walked in from the half-opened door.

There was a man in the room who was standing with his back to the window, and when he heard someone coming in, he immediately turned around.

It was the person Liu Yi guessed...
