Han Rui left, and after Li Xu listened to him talk about the legend of Wudang's division and the scenery on the mountain three times with a straight face, General Jinwu, who was really impatient, said goodbye to the emperor.

And Li Xu didn't keep it, he ordered the palace people to take out a piece of palace brocade and give it to Han Duan, so that General Zuo Jinwu could use it to make clothes. This piece of palace brocade is a tribute sent by Li Jifu from the observation of western Zhejiang, the weaver is delicate, light and smooth, and it is a good thing that Li Xu has on hand that can be used for gifts.

The currency of the Yu Dynasty is in line with the saying that wealth moves people's hearts. The method of using copper coins and brocade silk together, silk fabrics can be used as currency to buy things, and such a piece of Jiangnan brocade can buy a good horse in Baiyujing.

Han Rui was not short of money, the emperor was very short of money. So when the emperor insisted that he accept this piece of brocade, General Han burst into tears for a while, and the unhappiness of being forced to tell a story to the child also dissipated most of it.

Sending off General Zuo Jinwu, Li Xu returned to the Qingliang Palace, and the palace people had already put away the eating utensils, lit the palace lamp, and the hall illuminated by butter candles was bright.

"Your Majesty, what are you reading tonight?" Chen Chaoen hurriedly rushed back to ask the emperor after calling the palace people to clean up and clean up. According to Li Xu's habit, he wants to read a book for a while before going to bed.

"I haven't finished reading half of "Salt and Iron", so let's take it out. Wen Yuanheng gave Li Xu a bibliography, including this "Treatise on Salt and Iron", which is about hundreds of years ago, the then ruling imperial historian Sang Hongyang and the scholars of Kanto debated on salt and iron official camps and other matters, among which Sang Hongyang's sentence ""Confucianism, ink disciples, internal greed and external devotion," made Li Xu feel deeply, and also had more understanding of Wen Yuanheng.

This teacher teaches the true study of the emperor, and he is a person who can be trusted.

"Official, Wen San rode here this morning, and when he saw the book on the bookcase, he asked us to return it, and said that if Your Majesty asks, I will tell you that for the sake of fame in the future, there are some books to be read secretly. ”

Peek? Li Xu thought for a while before he came back to his senses. In addition to the eyeliner of Yufuguo and the Queen Mother and other large and small forces in the court, there are also two eyes that are difficult to avoid, the living house and the living room, and the daily work of these two is to follow his ass to see what he did, and record it, and send it to the National History Museum at the end of the year.

Li Xu's cheap Lao Tzu God Emperor once planned to watch the living notes, but was rejected by the living room at that time, and the God Emperor wiped his tears and said: "I remember that later people treated me as a faint king, and I couldn't sleep sadly." "The God Emperor also knew that he could not control the expansion of the power of his relatives and eunuchs, and he had no way to take the feudal town, and the evaluation in the history books after a thousand years was estimated to be much better.

Wen Yuanheng asked Chen Chaoen to take away the "Treatise on Salt and Iron" in order to take care of Li Xu's statement, after all, if the living note reads, "The emperor is good at the saying of the Legalist, and he likes heresy." In the context of Confucianism, this is not a good reputation.

Forget it, let's practice the skills, Li Xu thought about it, it is more reliable to secretly practice for a while "The Thirteen Taibao Horizontal Practice Golden Bell Jar", he will return to the bed in a while, put the curtain down, and take a few strokes according to the postures on Mr. Qing's copper plate diagram.

"Forget it, I won't watch it today, and I'm tired of listening to the general's martial arts in the afternoon, so let's wash up and rest. ”

Chen Chaoen hurriedly apologized again, and then asked the attendants to get the bath bucket and wait for the emperor to take a bath.

They were busy over there, Li Xu's heart moved, and he only felt that there was a lot of strength in his five bodies and limbs, and his heart became more and more comfortable.

"Your Majesty, the water is ready. Chen Chaoen's mouth had a smile that Li Xu couldn't understand.

Li Xu nodded and waved them to leave.

The bathing time every night is the most comfortable time for Li Xu, the waiters adjust the water temperature to be lukewarm, there are hot stones under the bath barrel to keep the water temperature, and the water is sprinkled with flower petals and incense powder, which has a special taste. The best thing is that at this time, all the palace people will leave, only Li Xu is alone in the dormitory, and there is silence all around, only the sound of insects and the crackling of burning candles. What Yufu country, what queen mother, what feudal towns and rivers and lakes, everything is like a smoke, only the rising water vapor and indescribable comfort are the eternity in Li Xu's world.

It was only at this time that Li Xu felt that it was a happiness to become an emperor.

The attendants filled the barrel with water, used tongs to pad the hot pebbles under the barrel, and then left under the command of Chen Chaoen. The emperor's habit when bathing was not to leave a single person around, and they all knew this. The air was filled with the scent of pine resin from the crane foot incense burner, Li Xu took off his boots and robe, untied the wooden hairpin on his bun, and then he stood in front of the wooden barrel wearing only a moon-white middle coat.

He had just had a bold idea.

Li Xu recalled the method of running the true qi on the "Thirteen Taibao Horizontal Practice Golden Bell Jar", stimulated the true qi scattered throughout the body, and then stretched out his hands and pressed them on the wooden barrel.

The tub is made of pine from Jungnan Mountain, and the old pine that has grown in San'in for many years is specially used to make it, because the wood of this pine is more compact. The bath barrel plus the hot water in the bucket is no less than 100 catties, and for Li Xu, lifting the wooden barrel is an impossible task.

However, Li Xu lifted it gently, and the bath bucket was lifted steadily, and there was no fluctuation on the water surface, so the emperor effortlessly lifted the wooden barrel weighing more than 100 catties. "The Thirteen Taibao Horizontal Practice Golden Bell Jar" has the effect of nurturing qi, but Li Xu is not yet an adult, and he has such an effect after only half a day of cultivation, which is really beyond his own expectations.

When chatting with Han Rui just now, I heard him mention that those who can shoot a thousand catties on the rivers and lakes are rare masters, if they practice this "Thirteen Taibao Horizontal Training Golden Bell Jar" to the fullest, and then order someone to cast a clumsy weapon such as a mace or a war hammer, I am afraid that under one blow, any master will turn into pulp.

Li Xu put down the bath bucket and jumped into the bucket with satisfaction through the stool, he felt that he could be invincible in the world within ten steps, in order to control the world, today he has verified the wonder of the "Thirteen Taibao Henglian Golden Bell Jar", Li Xu is full of confidence in the future.

The temperature of the incense soup in the bucket was just right, and the calming aroma in the incense burner also soothed Li Xu's spirit, and it was even more important for Li Xu to wake up Cardinal Wanhua to get the "Thirteen Taibao Henglian Golden Bell Jar". The so-called people are in good spirits when they are happy, their hearts are gone, and their bodies are much more relaxed than before.

Li Xu lay in the bucket, enjoying a pleasure far better than before.

Suddenly, he felt a tingling sensation at his temples, then a burst of comfort, and a faint aroma on the tip of his nose.

He opened his eyes and glanced left and right, only to see a pair of extremely white hands.

A pair of fingers as smooth as mutton fat pressed against his temples, kneading them gently.
