Chapter 13 Gou Jian
When he opened the door, he saw that he was an unknown confidant, about fifty or sixty years old, with no need on his face, and his spirit was excellent. Xu Yang didn't dare to be careless, so he gave a salute and said, "I don't know if the elder is coming.
The confessor didn't answer first, and looked at Xu Yang for a while before Shi Shiran said, "But is it the swordsman Xu Yang?"
Xu Yang said: "It's exactly below."
He raised his head and announced: "The king has an edict, and Xu Yang, a first-class swordsman in the first class of the swordsman battalion, will enter the palace immediately.
Xu Yang is a little strange.The king summons a swordsman.This is a very rare thing.Although Gou Jian attaches great importance to the swordsmen.But he usually summons two swordsmen to convey orders.He has never summoned himself.Why did he make an exception today?
After being stunned for a moment, the confessor became a little impatient, and said, "Swordsman Xu Yang, why don't you take the edict soon?"
Xu Yang hurriedly said: "Yes, Weichen received the edict."
"Well, take a shower and change your clothes, follow me." The confessor nodded, without the slightest expression on his face.
After a stick of incense, Xu Yang was dressed in a new way, standing in front of the Xuanzheng Palace, and the confessor had gone in to report. This Xuanzheng Palace is not a dormitory, but where Gou Jian usually deals with state affairs.
"Xuan.Swordsman Xu Yang is here!"
"Xuan.Swordsman Xu Yang is here!"
"Xuan.Swordsman Xu Yang is here!"
----
The sound of the edict came from afar.From far to near.In turn.The sound gradually changed from light to heavy.Until the samurai guarding the palace gate were also called.Xu Yang bowed down.Minister Xu Yang.Led the edict!
Go to the sword, remove the boots, raise your head and walk into the Xuanzheng Palace.
Walking through the long corridor, I saw that the Xuanzheng Hall covers a vast area, but the interior decoration is very simple, except that every five steps there is a pair of ordinary palace lamps for lighting and decoration, there is a pair of couches in the center, a pair of low ones, the rest are almost undecorated, the palace people serving in the palace are only six or seven people. Xu Yang nodded secretly.
There is a person sitting on the couch in the front, tall, with a long-necked beak, it is Gou Jian himself, Xu Yang is not the first time to see Gou Jian, but it is the first time he has been summoned alone.
Gou Jian said: "Raise your head, let Gu take a closer look."
Xu Yang got up from a long distance.Close-up look at Gou Jian.This person looks clumsy.He is only in his thirties.But his face is quite windy and miserable.Although he is the king of Yue.These years have not been good.Think about it.First in the three-year slave life in Wu State.After returning to China, he is lying on his salary and tasting his courage.Every day worrying about state affairs.I'm afraid that he hasn't lived a few days of happy life.Only his eyes are bright.Different from ordinary people.
Gou Jian also carefully observed Xu Yang, pondered for a moment, and asked, "Do you know that fifteen days later will be the day of the Wu Yue Swordsman Competition?"
Xu Yang arched his hand and said, "Weichen knows about this."
Gou Jian said again: "Since this is the case, it can be seen that the swordsman chief Ling Guyi proposed that Er's swordsmanship be superb, and You'er would play the first battle."
Xu Yang replied: "Weichen also knows, Linggu Governor has praised it, although Weichen's swordsmanship is far from superb, but it is passable, and it is not false to deal with those Wu swordsmen."
Gou Jian suddenly asked loudly: "Are you sure that you will win the battle?"
Xu Yang also replied loudly: "Your Excellency, this battle is sure to be fought, and if you are not sure, you must fight, it is related to the prestige of my Yue country's warriors, no matter what the victory or defeat is, it is necessary to let Wu Guo know that my Yue country cannot be humiliated.
Gou Jian asked, "Oh, what's the matter?"
Xu Yang replied: "Weichen has traveled all over the world, among all the countries, Wu Guo's soldiers are famous all over the world, I'm afraid that Da Yue will suffer a loss in this regard, no matter what the victory or defeat of this big competition is, please also prepare early, Yue and Wu will have a battle sooner or later, I just hope that by then, I will have 3,000 swordsmen in Yue Country, fight 3,000 sharp swords, kill Wu Dog, and capture Gusu!"
Although Xu Yang didn't know what Gou Jian had summoned him for, it was completely beneficial and harmless to remind him that it was completely beneficial and harmless for Gou Jian to remind him, and it was also in line with his identity as a swordsman who had traveled all over the world.
Gou Jian was really happy when he heard this, stared at Xu Yang for a long time, and laughed and said: "Xu Qing is really Yunwen Yunwu, he is really the pillar of my Great Yue Country.
Rely on.Really generous.Xu Yang is busy thanking.Take the sword of the reward.This is the legendary Yue King Goujian sword.Take it back to the future generations, it is a national treasure-level cultural relic.Even if it is placed in the current world.It is definitely one of the most valuable treasures.The swordsman gets a sword.I am afraid that it is more than three percent to improve his combat power.Xu Yang is sincere this time.There is no discount.
Gou Jian said again: "Xu Qing is also tired today, rest early, recuperate, retain strength to meet the swordsmen of Wu State, and let him taste the power of my sword of the Yue Kingdom!"
Xu Yang bowed back.
After Xu Yang withdrew from the main hall, the smile on Gou Jian's face gradually faded, and he asked, "Is it really as Qing said, this person is credible?"
A person turned out from behind the pillar of the hall, it was Linggu Yi, bowed his head and promised: "This person came from my brother's account in his early years, his background is absolutely credible, and Dr. Wen also said that this person is available, but Dr. Wen seems to be interested in this person, but I don't know why."
Gou Jian sneered: "Talented, lonely can be used immediately, now say that everything is early, Dabi survives later."
Linggu Yi: "Thank you for the sword, this person's martial arts, with this sharp weapon, the chances of survival are greatly increased, the king is wise."
Gou Jian said: "I really need some new strength in Dayue, and it is also inappropriate for foreign courtiers to be too heavy."
"The king is wise, but Dr. Wen and Dr. Fan are both pillars of the country, and they are loyal to the king.
Gou Jian waved his hand: "Stand down, remember to pay more attention to this Xu Yang, I hope he will live up to the trust of the widow."
Linggu Yi once again thanked the palace and pushed out the palace.
Gou Jian sighed softly.This imperial mind is really too tired.
If it weren't for the defeat of the husband back then, why would I need to be so tired----?
Xu Yang withdrew from the main hall, and he also sighed.To say that in the face of Gou Jian, there is no pressure, that is not at all.Gou Jian, one of the five tyrants of the Spring and Autumn Period, is not ordinarily stressful.Fortunately, he only needs to stay in this world for a month.If he is here all the year round.Once the response is wrong.I believe that Gou Jian doesn't care about giving him a ride.A one-way ticket.
It's just.Why Gou Jian is suddenly interested in him.Still have no clue.Gou Jian asks him a few questions.It's not unusual.But that's the biggest anomaly.What kind of person is Gou Jian.Ask him a little swordsman about some swordsmanship competitions--it's really weird.
Think about it carefully.I didn't have anything out of the ordinary except to go to Ah Qing to learn the sword.No.There was also the conflict with Zhao Tan and Su Ting.However.This conflict was really a normal thing.How could Gou Jian notice it?
I can't figure it out.I don't want to think about it.Xu Yang has always been this kind of lazy temper.Instead of worrying about this kind of trivial matter.It's better to think more about how to understand the Yue Nu swordsmanship.After all, this is the fundamental thing for you to complete the system task and be able to survive.
Everything else is not very important, and it may be the icing on the cake, but it is definitely not a blessing.
Thinking of the Yue Nu swordsmanship, Xu Yang smiled bitterly again, completely clueless.
