Wei Qimu frowned when he heard this, and said, "Can your master afford me?"

Tokugawa Yoshichen was stunned for a moment, and then relieved, and said, "Your Excellency must not know who my lord is, and if you did, you wouldn't have asked such a question. 」

Wei Qimu asked, "Oh? 」

Tokugawa Yoshitatsu said, "The lord of my family is Gennekoha-sama!"

Wei Qi's wooden surface has no waves, obviously not recognizing where this source energy is sacred. Tokugawa Yoshichen was stunned again, thinking that Wei Qimu didn't know the details of Yuan Neng when he first arrived in Japan, so he patiently explained: "My lord is called Yuan Nengyou, not only as an official in the position of minister, but also after the imperial family. He was originally the eldest son of Emperor Buntoku, but he was voluntarily demoted to a subordinate. With this open-mindedness alone, it is far from being comparable to the ordinary sons and nobles. What's more, my head of the family, Corporal Gong Lixian, is the most important talent, and he will definitely treat you well!"

Wei Qimu listened strangely, and Jin Huang explained on the side: "It is said that the emperor of Japan has always had many children, so some of them will be dismissed from the emperor's position, demoted to ministers, and given to the Genji. It is not surprising that such a custom has been set by Emperor Saga since then. 」

Although Wei Qimu knew the details of Yuan Neng, he would not have any plans to throw himself into his door. It's just that the whereabouts of the Onmyoji are very important, and Wei Qimu has many inconveniences in the Japanese. There was no better way for him to find the Onmyoji first with the power of Yuan Neng, so he responded, "In that case, it is time to visit. 」

Tokugawa Yoshichen was overjoyed when he heard this, and immediately led Wei Qimu and the three of them to the Heian Jingyuan Mansion. On the way, Tokugawa Yoshitomi was quite talkative, casually recounting the deeds of Heiankyo, and asked about the names of Xiao Luoxia and Jin Huang. Jin Huang hid the matter of Silla and only said that he came with Wei Qimu. Wei Qimu and Xiao Luoxia naturally didn't want to say much.

All the people rode on horses, but in half a day, they approached a large city. This city is several zhang high, with a radius of dozens of miles, which is magnificent. On the city gate, there are three big characters written "Luo Chengmen", but Wei Qimu recognizes it. When you enter the city gate, you will find a wide avenue called "Suzaku Road".

The cars and horses in the city meet, and people come and go, which is far better than Nabojin. Tokugawa Yoshichen raised his whip and pointed around, and asked, "Chiki-kun, I don't know how our Heianjing compares to the Tang Dynasty Chang'an?"

Wei Qimu also went to Chang'an City, and when he saw that the scale and buildings of Ping'an City had traces of Chang'an City, he said honestly: "There are many similarities. 」

Tokugawa Yoshitomi looked happy and said proudly: "The Tang Dynasty has Chang'an City, and my Japan also has Heian City, which is comparable to it. 」

Wei Qimu shook his head lightly after hearing this. Tokugawa Yoshitsumi was puzzled, and asked Xiao Luoxia, "Why did Shakuki-kun shake his head?"

Wei Qimu said: "The prosperity of peace is not as good as the eleventh and twelfth of Chang'an. 」

Tokugawa Yoshitsu was shocked when he heard this. He saw that Wei Qimu's expression did not seem to be false and exaggerated, and sighed again: "If you have a chance for the rest of your life, you must go to Datang to see the whole picture!"

Heianjing is divided into two by Suzaku Road, with Zuojing on the left, analogous to Luoyang in the Tang Dynasty, and Youjing on the right, analogous to Chang'an in the Tang Dynasty. Youkyo is mostly swampy and wetland, and it is not suitable for human habitation, so many high-ranking officials and nobles and relatives of the emperor and the state of Heiankyo are in Sakyo. Tokugawa Yoshitsu led everyone through the streets and alleys of Sakyori, and it was almost dusk, and finally arrived in front of a mansion.

Although this mansion is not as good as the inner court of the palace, it is also a deep courtyard Wumen, Zhu Lantern wide road, and there are three corridors in it, which are blocked several times - naturally it is the mansion of Yuan Neng. There are soldiers and waiters guarding the door, and there are maids and concubines serving in the door, which is quite the style of a famous family.

Everyone entered the mansion, and after the servants told them, Tokugawa Yoshichen led Wei Qimu and the three of them into the living room to wait. The decoration in the living room is exquisite, magnificent: there are many plum orchids and bamboo chrysanthemums on the painting wall, and there are no bad pieces of gold and jade ceramics. After a while, two people turned behind the screen, and the one in front was about thirty years old, dressed in a white "hunting suit", holding a folding fan, with handsome eyebrows, a round complexion, a noble but gentle appearance, which was the owner of this mansion.

Tokugawa Yoshishin bowed respectfully and introduced, "My lord, these three are warriors from the Tang Dynasty. He pointed to Wei Qimu and said, "This is Wei Qimujun, and his martial arts can be described as the pinnacle!"

Wei Qimu and the three of them greeted him. Yuan Nengyou returned the salute elegantly, and then opened his square mouth and spit out a very smooth Tang dialect: "Everyone comes to the Humble House, Yuan has lost his welcome, please take a seat." He also ordered the people to go out in a Japanese language: "Serve tea to the guests of the Tang Dynasty!"

Wei Qimu replied, "Lord Yuan is polite, it's me who bothered you. 」

As soon as Wei Qimu's words fell, he heard a cold snort out of thin air. This cold snort came from the person behind him, and I saw that he was dressed in a vermilion "straight down" dress, wearing a black hat, and a white spike folding fan in his hand, which was more elegant and elegant. This man was neither tall nor low, but he looked strong and strong, with a cold complexion and a cold eyebrow that was formidable.

The man's eyes were slightly closed, his eyelids were not raised, and he sneered, "Oh, Tokugawa Yoshiseru, you are getting more and more promising, and you really can bring anyone to the lord. 」

Tokugawa Yoshitsu was dissatisfied: "Yanagisawa Shin, what are you arrogant about? They are the distinguished guests I have invited, and you must not be insulted!"

Yanagisawa snorted coldly again, ignoring Tokugawa Yoshichen, but raised his eyelids, stared at Wei Qimu for a while, and then bowed to Yuan Neng and asked, "My lord, I am willing to teach this Tang Dynasty warrior martial arts. 」

Yuan Neng paused slightly, and then chuckled and said, "Shakuki-kun is a guest from afar, and Yanagizawa-kun must not be rude. What's more, you have to compete with others tomorrow, so you have to be well prepared. 」

Although Yanagisawa snorted coldly again, he still obediently retreated, but the recklessness and disdain revealed at the corners of his eyebrows became more and more intense.

Yuan Neng arranged a banquet to entertain Wei Qimu and the three of them. Although this feast is not extravagant, it is very exquisite: one cup and one lamp, each with its own style, and each bowl and plate have their own characteristics. It's just that the dishes are full of raw meat and fish, which makes people dare not taste more. In addition, there are also geisha women with heavy makeup to add to the feast, although their musical instruments are similar to the guzheng pipa, but between beating and singing, they are not quite the same as the Tang Dynasty. Xiao Luoxia couldn't help but feel sick when he saw that those geisha were all white-faced and red-lipped, pretending to be like female ghosts. Wei Qimu and Jin Huang felt that they had a different style, and they watched and listened carefully.

Although Yuan Nengyou has never been to the Tang Dynasty, he has a close relationship with the Tang envoys, and he has studied Middle-earth culture since childhood, so he is familiar with the affairs of the Central Plains. Yuan Neng didn't ask how the Tang Dynasty was fighting, how many times it rose and fell, and only said some poems, songs, and legends, which fit Wei Qimu's temperament, so the guests and hosts talked very happily.

Although the strength of Japanese sake is not as strong as that of Middle-earth, Wei Qimu drank a few pots in a row, and he was still slightly drunk. He couldn't help but think of the days when he talked about poetry and Taoism with Su Ruyue in a paradise in Yuezhou, it was really like a dream, but it was a pity that he never said goodbye to her in person when he went to Yuezhou again. Wei Qimu looked at Yuan Nengyou again, and saw that he was quite graceful in his words and deeds, and he had the posture of a dragon and a phoenix, and said in his heart: "Thinking about it, the status of this Tokugawa Yoshichen in the Yuan family is not very high, but Yuan Nengyou treats me so politely with just a few words, which shows that he is broad-minded and very accessible. 」

The banquet was held until the evening, and the Japanese masters and servants dispersed one by one, leaving only Tokugawa Yoshitsu, who drank from the side.

Seeing that Yanagisawa Nobu had never been seated, Wei Qimu knocked on the table and asked, "Brother Tokugawa, I wonder what kind of person Yanagisawa Shin is?"

Xiao Luoxia translated, and Tokugawa Yoshitsu said through the wine: "Yanagisawa Shin? After he was originally a nobleman, but his family declined, so he became a waiter. Yanazawa Shin is arrogant by nature, unapproachable, and thinks that his bloodline is one level higher than ours, but his martial arts are good, and he is deeply loved by the lord, which is why he neglected Shakuki-kun. 」

Wei Qimu asked again, "What is Lord Yuan's saying that he will compete with others tomorrow?"

Tokugawa Yoshiseki had another cup of stomach and said with a smile: "Shakuki-kun, you can have a good show tomorrow. This Yanagisawa Nobu and Tokugawa have made an appointment for life and death in a fight, tsk, there must be an injury when the two tigers fight. 」

Wei Qimu said, "Tokugawa Muqian?

Tokugawa Yoshishin shook his head and said, "Chikuki-kun doesn't know, we have three families in Tokugawa, and Tokugawa Muzen is the attendant of the Fujiwara family, so we don't deal with it. 」

Wei Qimu was silent. Tokugawa Yoshitatsu continued, "Their battle is not only about the honor of the Genji and Fujiwara clans, but also about the fortunes of Japan. Alas, now that the imperial family is fading, the Fujiwara family is in power, and it has threatened the emperor. As the head of the imperial family, I naturally can't sit back and ignore it, so I secretly train us so that we can be used by the emperor in the future...... So, although I can't get used to Yanagizawa's arrogant appearance, I still hope that he can win against Tokugawa Muji tomorrow......

Wei Qimu doesn't care about Japan's national fortunes, but it is a pity that Yuan can have such a rare demeanor if he fails.

Yuan Neng has already prepared three first-class rooms for Wei Qimu and the three of them to live. When Japan lived like before Li Tang in the Central Plains, they all lay on the ground and did not have high beds.

Wei Qimu wandered in a foreign country, and he couldn't sleep at night, so he simply walked out of the door and jumped onto the roof. The moon was dim and the stars were thick. Wei Qimu sat on the roof ridge, holding his cheeks and wandering. Suddenly, a white light flashed in the courtyard, which stood out in the night. Wei Qimu looked at it intently, but the white light was endless, one after another, and finally connected into a white mass. This white light is nothing else, but a ball of knife - someone practices knives late at night!

Wei Qimu let out a light "huh", got off the roof, and approached lightly. Through the starlight, he saw that the person who danced the knife was Yanagisawa Shin. I saw Yanazawa Nobuya holding a slender single knife in both hands, slashing and slashing, one knife was faster than a knife, the knife was brilliant, blooming in the night sky, and the night was one, and it was impossible to distinguish the sword light and starlight. The blade of the knife is narrow and long, but it is somewhat similar to the horizontal knife of the Tang Dynasty.

Wei Qimu took a look at it again, found the clue, and said incomprehensibly: "This person's sword skills are almost extreme, but there is no trace of internal force, which is strange......

Wei Qimu was thinking about it when he suddenly heard a strong wind coming at great speed. Wei Qimu didn't have time to see the strong wind clearly, so he only shook his body and flashed. It turned out that Yanazawa Shin noticed that Wei Qimu was peeping on the side by the light of the knife, so he slashed at it. The sword was surging like a beast descending from a mountain.

Yanazawa Shin missed with a knife, his face was slightly stunned, he never expected Wei Qimu to avoid this blow so easily, and said in his heart: "I underestimated this person, and it seems that he also has some ability. 」

After Wei Qimu dodged a knife, he stood still in place. Because neither of them could speak in a speech, neither of them spoke. Yanazawa Shin stared at Wei Qimu for a moment, then unfolded his long knife again, and approached Wei Qimu. Wei Qimu was prepared at this time, and he was even more unhurried, and easily avoided this knife. Yanagisawa Shin stabbed twice in a row to no avail, and finally showed anger on his face, and said coldly, "Draw the sword!" After that, the long knife rose again, and the knife was cold.

Wei Qimu naturally didn't understand, he didn't draw his knife or make any counterattacks, he just turned his waist with short shoulders and raised his feet sideways, which seemed to be extremely dangerous, but he could always avoid Yanagisawa Shin's fast knife. After more than a dozen moves in a row, Liu Zexin's knife was like a rainbow, and his moves were treacherous, but he couldn't touch a corner of Wei Qimu's clothes.

Wei Qimu has already seen that there is no internal force fluctuation in this Yanazawa Shin's body. He couldn't help but shake his head slightly, withdrew from the battle circle, and walked away with light skills. Wei Qimu never said a word from beginning to end, nor did he make a move, and he chewed in his heart: "It is really rare that someone can practice the sword technique to such a state without practicing internal skills. This Liu Zexin is still different from Yin Keda, the guard of the county lord of Zhang Ying, although Yin Keda has also practiced external skills to the extreme, but he still practices internal skills, while Liu Zexin has no internal strength foundation, there is no trace of internal strength in the dantian, and he relies on the external strength of his muscles and bones to carry the knife!
