The old man in the temple has become more and more strict with his apprentices recently, and he is a sword style, exercises, and decades of understanding, and he has all taught him martial arts and kendo.

And these apprentices, not only did they not feel that they couldn't accept it all at once, but they felt that a lot of things were suddenly opened, and their cultivation was much more refined than before.

Although the old man has trained batch after batch of people, he can really put it next to the emperor and the future Son of Heaven, and one is enough, and there are not many of them. In this batch, he also seems to see hope.

"Master, when will I be able to stay by His Majesty's side like other senior brothers?"

A young man with a small face, but a very strong body, said with some impatience.

The three senior brothers next to him all looked at this kid a little stupidly, because the master had already said that let them practice their swords first, and then think about those things. How do you feel, this kid doesn't seem to remember any feelings.

"You bastard, are you itching again, with your current kung fu, it's still far away! Haven't you seen your brother? At least like them! When you get to the fire, your master and I will naturally let the emperor come up to decide! Hurry back to practicing swords! ”

The old man's beard shook, and a branch was twitched against the boy's ass.

"Ouch!"

The kid screamed desperately.

"Then, it's just a matter of stepping into the ninefold, right?"

The old man looked at it and grinned, this is really a young man who doesn't know the height of the sky, what he said, Jiuju is like being able to pick it up, and it's there when he says it.

"Hey, you bastard, you don't have a lot of ability, and your tone is not small! Don't think that if you go fast in the senior brothers, you will definitely be able to go far, like you who are so ambitious, I have never seen 10,000 old man, but I have also seen 8,000, in the end, not only can not become a master, but also may be obsessed with everyone, and even, these senior brothers who look weaker than you in front of them, one day they will open their minds, and they may be a lot better than you! Ninefold, it just means that you are qualified, and when you get to Ninefold, let's look at the situation! ”

Old man Chen, looking at this kid, he is angry and happy, this kid is full of ambition, but he is a little too arrogant.

"Then you'll see! Not only will I be the strongest here, but I will also be the strongest among your apprentices, and even, surpass you! Become the strongest in the Song Kingdom, and even in the world! When the time comes, teach an apprentice who is more powerful than your apprentice! ”

The kid lifted his head up to the sky and held his nostrils to the Master in front of him.

"Hahaha, yes, God! Then I hope you can do it soon, otherwise, the old man may not be able to see it! ”

At this time, Tianci didn't know what to do, but he just glanced at this old man, turned his head and went to practice swords.

Tianjia, Tianyi, and Tianbing watched him come, but they were also a little more serious, although this Tianci is not the oldest, but just like a squad leader, staring at them every day, the key is that swordsmanship and martial arts are the highest, and if you slack off you will be beaten, the old man seems to have acquiesced to these, and every time after teaching, he is also happy to have a leisurely swim.

In the treacherous situation, there is a hint of blandness, which is rare and commendable among the nobles of the high family. I heard that this Yan Shangshu has been a little unsafe recently, and this Zhao Yitao brought his sister Zhao Xilin to Yan's Mansion to visit Prince Anle.

Today's Shangshu Mansion, although it is still the same as before, simple and atmospheric, with a slight literati atmosphere in the garden, although it does not look magnificent, but in appearance, it still makes people feel very solemn.

However, the atmosphere of the whole courtyard does not seem to be the same as before, and now it looks a little twilight, a little sad, and even a little decayed.

Yan Shaoyi, who came out to greet her, hadn't seen her for a long time, obviously lost a lot of weight, and the bloody wind and rain in Kyoto for a while could be regarded as some fright, which made her look a little damaged. Of course, the most important thing is that Yan Kuo died not long ago, and this sister was obviously hit hard.

Zhao Yitao and Zhao Xilin were very concerned and tried to comfort her, but they felt speechless for a while and didn't know what to say.

For Yan Kuo's death, they were also very surprised and uncomfortable. Taking Zhao Yitao as an example, although he was lost from time to time at that time, after all, he grew up from childhood to adulthood, and although he didn't play as well as Lin Che, he was definitely a friend and an old friend.

Now, in that way, he fell at the door of Tingyuxuan and became a victim of the prince's succession, and he actually felt guilty.

Although now, the four princes and the six princes are considered to be used, but when it was initially believed that the four princes killed Yan Kuo, to be honest, although Zhao Yitao felt shocked, in his heart, it was also very likely.

And the old father, who had known for a long time that he had an unclear relationship with the four princes, beat him at that time and made him break off from then on, and he wanted to participate in the internal struggle of the royal family.

As for Zhao Xilin, although he knew Yan Kuo's intentions before, his brother often joked about this, but he didn't have a relationship with him, he just regarded him as a brother who played from childhood to adulthood. Now, he passed away suddenly, making her a little unavoidable for a while, and it was difficult for her to accept it.

But the two of them still cheered up, and with a warm and warm face, they came to the Yan Mansion and had a good chat with Yan Shaoyi and the elders of the Yan Mansion.

When they arrived at the house, Mrs. Yan also came out to say hello, asked people to put away the prayers, and then warmly picked them up to see Yan Shangshu.

This Mrs. Yan is the stepmother of Yan Shaoyi and Yan Kuo, Yan Shangshu continued to play the strings back then, firstly, because the family always needs a steward to take care of them, and secondly, it is Yan Kuo and Yan Shaoyi who were young and also need maternal love.

And this Mrs. Yan obviously knows this Yan Kuo character, and she is willing to treat the two of them as her own children, but she has no children. To be honest, this is a very difficult decision for a woman, and the gossip and harsh criticism of the world are very unimaginable.

It is precisely because of this that Yan Shangshu also loves her, when Yan Shaoyi grows up, she understands her hard work and is very grateful, as for Yan Kuo, although she has never said that she likes her much, she will still respect her.

"Uncle Yan, my father said that he would wait for you in two days, let me come and pick you up, and go fishing near Naxi Mountain!"

Zhao Yitao, who came to the room, said with a smile.

Yan Shangshu leaned against the bed and seemed to be smiling.

"Oh, if only I had him as idle! Wait for me, don't you have a lot of things waiting for me to do! How can you have time to go fishing! You let him remember to hang a fresh good fish, don't forget to send me two! Hahahaha! ”

Seeing that Master Shangshu could still make jokes, Zhao Yitao was also relieved.

"That's natural, my brother and I will personally send it to you when the time comes!"

Zhao Xilin said obediently, but it made this Yan Shangshu family suddenly feel a warmth in their hearts.

After staying for a while, this Zhao Xilin thought about taking Yan Shaoyi for a walk, the family knew it, and they all thought it was good, and if they stayed at home all the time, people would become less energetic.

When these people first started, they didn't go anywhere else, but first went to the mansion of the high master and acted as messengers.

In other words, since Lin Jue decided to go to the east, this Gao Manni has always been at ease in his heart, and from time to time he asks Zhao Yitao to help send a letter.

This Zhao Yitao is not good for himself as a man, he runs to find someone else's high girl every day, for fear of gossiping, so he let his sister together, the two girls chat, and then transfer the letters to each other.

In the past, this trick was used to let Zhao Xilin and Yan Shaoyi take Gao Manni out, saying that they were going to play, but in fact, they were also creating opportunities for Lin Che and Gao Manni.

To say that this Lin Jue is also a straight intestine, after making up his mind, he rarely communicates with this Gao Manni. This letter was also sent by Gao Manni a lot, and he received very few replies.

"Lin Jue too, it's too unusual, why haven't you seen a letter for so many months!"

This Zhao Yitao hasn't spoken yet, but his own sister knows how to convey her words, or how to say it, she is still a brother and sister.

Gao Manni seemed to have a trace of worry in her eyes, she didn't feel angry, or sad because she didn't send her a letter, she was still worried about Lin Jue's safety.

"The last time he wrote a letter, he said that Nayingzhou had just experienced the scourge of war, and everything was waiting to be rebuilt. He didn't elaborate on any difficulties, but I also learned from others that almost all of Yingzhou's officials and soldiers were newcomers, or they were urgently transferred to fill the number. And the surrounding bandits and bandits are very serious, and the already small number of people there, and the already unsmooth trade, are now even more miserable. He is alone in the military city of Yingzhou, always leading the army and government, and he has to deal with so many difficulties, which is already hard enough, how can I blame him! ”

Hearing Gao Manni's words, everyone also nodded, this Lin Jue threw away the comfort of Kyoto and went to such a difficult place, basically to pioneer, and it is normal to reply less letters, and even if it is written, according to the environment there, it may not be able to send it smoothly.

"Miss Gao doesn't have to worry, Lin Jue should be among the people I have seen, in our generation, the top political and military literacy, and Han Hao, who has just been promoted to one of the two deputy commanders, is also about the same. We are waiting for him to put the governance there in an orderly manner, and turn the Yingzhou, where the birds don't, into another pearl in the east like the Dongchang Mansion! ”

Zhao Yitao said with a smile, and he was relieved to see Yan Shaoyi and the other two girls smiling.

In the past, there were always Lin Che and Lin Jue, and sometimes Han Hao and Yan Kuo by their side, in the face of so many girls, you and I said one sentence at a time, joking and playing, and time passed quickly. But now, he is a man, and in the face of the three talented women in Kyoto, he is a little overwhelmed for a while, and even desperately thinks of topics to make them happier, which is sad for him.

"Otherwise, let's go outside the city, it's still early, just go outside the city to breathe, I haven't been outside the city for months!"

A few girls think it's feasible, but now, unlike before, they don't have that mood anymore when they go to see piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, or rouge gouache. Going outside to relax, in the famous mountains and rivers, to find a trace of relief, is their common idea at the moment.

"Otherwise, let's go to Dajue Temple! It just so happens that you can also pray for Lin Jue and Uncle Yan, and the scenery is also good, killing two birds with one stone! ”

Zhao Yitao's little head at this time accelerated wildly at an unprecedented speed, which also won unanimous praise from several beauties.

This Dajue Temple is still like that, quietly located on Shenyin Mountain, there are still not many monks, but there are many pilgrims, which is a stark contrast.

Zhao Yilin straddled the high-headed horse, took the three girls in the carriage, and came to the familiar Dajue Temple together. All of them have been to this place many times, and in the temple, they naturally still have some impressions of these distinguished guests.

"This Dajue Temple, is it renovated, how do you feel that it has been updated!"

Zhao Yitao looked at this magnificent temple, and seemed to feel a trace of novelty, such as some hardware, as well as the robes of these monks, which were better than before. Of course, maybe he didn't know that all this money was obtained from an acquaintance.

The other three girls have their own feelings, Gao Manni prayed for Lin Jue at this time, and at the same time recalled the scene of meeting Lin Jue at that time, at that time, they were carefree, at that time, they were still teenagers.

Yan Shaoyi will be heavier, firstly, to pray for her father's blessing, and secondly, she also hopes to let her brother die.

Zhao Xilin didn't think so much, she hoped that the house would be peaceful and everyone could happily get together again, including Lin Che, who now didn't know where to flee.

When Zhao Yitao saw that the girls were so pious, he was not good at giggling, so he had to go around by himself, and by the way, he went to solve his own eating, drinking, and Lazar.

Sometimes, a place that I haven't been to always makes people feel itchy, but after I go, I feel that it doesn't seem to be interesting.

This is the feeling of Zhao Yitao now, before I came, I felt that the scenery of this Dajue Temple was quite good, and it was quiet or something, but now, I felt that there was nothing. The so-called tranquility, the most direct feeling, is the high mountains and dense forests, and then there are a lot of birds.

Therefore, he also thinks that he is a layman, but in fact, he just wants to go to see Yan Shaoyi and help deliver a letter by the way, the key is that he will feel embarrassed in the pile of women. This made Zhao Yitao go to the toilet angrily, ready to vent his depression.

When he was finished, Zhao Yilin came out of the toilet relaxedly, obviously feeling a lot more comfortable, and was ready to go to the hall.

"Water ......"

A weak and somewhat familiar voice sounded in Zhao Yitao's ears, his nerves tensed violently, and he slowly approached the source of the sound and walked to a nearby house.

When the door was pushed open, looking at the man lying on the bed, his jaw was about to fall out!

"Lin Che!"
