Chapter Twenty-Three: The Sword in Charge
After announcing the news, Zhao Tianxiong left the Yanwu Hall. As soon as he left, the discussion in the Yanwu Hall became lively, and no one was stupid, they all knew that there must be a big change in the family, but they couldn't guess why. “
The teacher shouted, "Silence. Everyone at the bottom stopped talking and looked at the teaching.
"Now that the family has relaxed the conditions, don't explore the reason, just practice martial arts with peace of mind. If you know the time, I will inform you. ”
Everyone gradually calmed down, after all, they were only young people in their teens or early twenties, Yanwutang was the future of the family, but they were not the people in charge of the family, and there were very few even middle-level people, only the upper and middle levels of teaching and arithmetic, and Zhao Xueqing, as the deputy hall master of Yanwutang, was already a part of the family's real power.
Zhao Xueqing was still silent, and basically let the teacher speak.
"There are three kinds of family prefecture-level exercises, one palm, one knife, and one sword, the palm is the hollow palm, the knife is the cloak knife method, and the sword is the pine wind sword method. These are the three sets of exercises that are most suitable for my Zhao family. ”
Next, the teaching will go through the characteristics of these three sets of ground-level exercises one by one, so that the following members can have enough understanding. Subsequently, two lecturers came in and taught the three earth-level exercises of sword, sword, and palm together with the instructor.
In the process of everyone's enthusiastic practice, Zhao Xueqing had already drifted away.
............
In a secluded corner of the inner courtyard, there is an inconspicuous small pavilion, where few people visit, at this moment Cao Zheng is standing in the pavilion, looking at the coming king of Lanjun with a smile on the corner of his mouth, his demeanor is still chic, he saw the queen of Lanjun, and said: "Brother Ji's martial arts are really outstanding, and he will inherit the throne of the prince in the future, it must be a matter of nine out of ten." ”
King Lanjun frowned and said, "When will I be your eldest brother?
Cao Zheng said: "Brother Ji, please don't call me a young helper, it's too much, just call me Cao Zheng." I am in love with the county lord, and I will soon go to ask the prince for marriage, and then I will ask Brother Ji to help me say a few kind words in front of the prince. ”
King Lanjun smiled dumbly, the previous competition in the Zhao family's martial arts hall could not show Cao Zheng's closeness to him. He laughed and said, "That's why you called me?"
Cao Zhengdao: "This is a major matter related to my marriage, of course, I can't ignore it." He paused and said, "After all, King Lanjun pursued Zhao Xueqing and was also obsessed with love. Especially the head of the Zhao family is such a daughter. ”
King Lanjun frowned, Cao Zheng's last sentence obviously meant something, could it be that his plan was discovered by him, this is a major matter, has the power management of the Cao Gang reached this point.
Cao Zhengxing saluted and said: "I hope that Brother Ji will be successful." ”
King Lanjun said in a deep voice: "It's about the happiness of the little sister, of course, the little sister wants to nod first." ”
Cao Zheng smiled and said: "Then Brother Ji will not object, of course I will be attentive to the county lord." Finally, with a message for Brother Ji, the eldest prince is collecting gifts and preparing to come to Zhao's mansion. ”
"What is he doing here?" King Lanjun was shocked, at this time, the eldest prince was still leaving the Shendu, shouldn't he be in the Shendu Palace all the time.
Cao Zheng glanced at King Lanjun strangely, but he didn't say anything, some words stopped at the point, but there was no need to say it.
Lan Junwang's eyes were cold, and he also understood, and then he felt a heavy pressure.
After the two dispersed, King Lanjun returned to the courtyard of "Tianyi" and instructed his subordinates to summon Tang Chu to come to discuss the matter.
Tang Shu lived in the outer courtyard and lived with his subordinates, so after three quarters of an hour, he came to the living room of the courtyard of the king of Lanjun, and when he saw the king of Lanjun sitting on the throne with a solemn look on his face, he bowed and said, "I don't know what is the urgency of the king of the county summoning me?"
King Lanjun motioned to Tang Shu to sit down with his hand and said, "According to Cao Zheng, the eldest prince is collecting gifts to come to the Zhao Mansion. I wonder what you think?"
Tang was taken aback: "At this time, why did he come to Liangzhou in person?"
King Lanjun's eyes were gloomy, and he said, "Because the situation is urgent, I want to come to the Zhao family in person to show my solemnity." He must quickly finalize the alliance with the Zhao family, and then rush back to the Shendu immediately to eliminate all dissent with great strength. ”
Tang Shu said: "According to the secret protection passed by the prince, the emperor's time is short, and at this critical juncture, the person who handed over the position of the leader of the forbidden army to the third prince cannot be dealt with fiercely by the eldest prince." ”
"After all, he's still not a prince. But he didn't expect him to come to the Zhao family decisively to form an alliance. “
"With the support of the Gao family in Yangzhou and the Zhao family in Liangzhou, and the power of the queen mother's experience in Shenzhou, even if the emperor really passes the throne to the third prince, he is not without a chance to turn around. ”
King Lanjun smiled bitterly, "This conflicts with the task given to me by my father. ”
"I asked Zhao Tianyan to marry his daughter Zhao Xueqing, but I said that Zhao Xueqing was self-reliant since she was a child, and even the marriage was decided by herself, so I stayed in Zhao's mansion and wanted to pursue her in person. Unexpectedly, she is really an 'ice and snow beauty', she doesn't eat oil and salt, and she has made no progress at all. Speaking of Zhao Xueqing, King Lanjun was full of bitterness, with his status and strength, if he proposed to marry, nine out of nine women in the world would go crazy and agree, but Zhao Xueqing was also from a famous family, but he was not interested in his hospitality.
In her eyes, I think she only has martial arts, and she wants to use martial arts to subdue her. At this point, King Lan paused.
Tang Shu had already heard that King Lanjun had proposed a competition to Zhao Xueqing before, but she failed miserably, and her talent for martial arts was so high that it really overshadowed the genius of the royal family.
King Lanjun suddenly looked embarrassed, and asked, "Tang Shu, what you said about Zhao Xueqing, how to touch her heart?"
Tang said: "My subordinates only know about the martial arts of the army, and they don't study the relationship between men and women. However, Cao Zheng came to pursue the county lord, and recently he saw that the county lord had a slight interest in him. The county lord turned out to be a beautiful woman with eyes above the top and no pretense about men. Why don't you go and ask him? ”
King Lanjun put his hand on his forehead and said, "If I really ask, where will my face remain." ”
Tang Shu was silent.
King Lanjun sighed and said, "I can only wait for the eldest prince to come." When the time comes, the soldiers will come to block, and the water will cover the earth. ”
Tang Shu suddenly asked, "King of the county, why does the prince have to form an alliance with the Zhao family." ”
King Lanjun said: "Three hundred years ago, Huang Taizu was only a prince. ”
As soon as Tang Shu heard it, he already understood that the Ji family was divided into several princes and states, but when the royal family was weak, the prince might not be able to become the emperor. And now, Prince Yong obviously has the same thoughts.
The emperor will be killed, the throne is vacant, the prince and prince are fighting, and there are family gangs wrestling in it, it is really a mountain rain to come and the wind is full of buildings, and the world will be in chaos again.
............
After returning to the residence and eating the food brought by the servant, Zhao Dongli sat cross-legged on the bed.
The competition between Cao Zheng and the king of Lanjun that he saw during the day is still vivid, he thinks about it himself, if he comes to power, he will have to admit defeat in front of him, people have strength, and there is power behind him, so he can live in this inner courtyard, he is a branch disciple, and it will be too conspicuous to live here, and he will move to the outer courtyard tomorrow.
The preparatory members of the Yanwutang have a unified residence in the outer courtyard, but if they pass the assessment, they can move into the inner courtyard and have an independent courtyard allocation. Now, although you don't need to pass the assessment to learn the prefecture-level exercises, you still have to advance to the enlightenment realm before you can assign a house in the inner courtyard.
After making up his mind, he recalled the prefecture-level exercises he had learned during the day.
Splitting the Empty Palm, Cloak Knife Technique, and Songfeng Sword Technique, these three ground-level exercises are far beyond the human-level exercises that Zhao Dongli learned before, because what he learned before was the Cao Gang's bloody battle knife method, so he also chose the cloak knife method at this moment.
After all, the ground-level exercises are much more profound than the human-level exercises, and they will have to be studied in the Yanwutang for the next few days.
When Zhao Dongli was practicing the cloak knife technique, he also occasionally watched the other two martial arts, these three exercises are all light and fast, with a variety of moves, with the corresponding body method, once practiced, it has a good power.
The heaven-level exercises of the Zhao family are also of this type, everyone in the rivers and lakes knows it, it seems that with the power of the Zhao family, there must be other ground-level exercises in the collection, but because it is necessary to cooperate with the heaven-level exercises, there are only these three doors that are compatible, so the exercises passed on to the members of the Yanwutang are these three.
If those people with foreign surnames who swore allegiance to the Zhao family, or other children of the Zhao family, who received merit and were rewarded and sold by the Zhao family, there should be more other types to choose from when they want to practice prefecture-level exercises.
When Zhao Dongli was thinking, he drew inferences from one another, and the thoughts in his brain flashed from time to time, feeling that his brain was becoming more and more clear and transparent, thinking about what the problem, and with a slight thought, there would be results, and the effect of star power infusion gradually appeared.
Zhao Dongli had mastered all the cloak knife techniques taught during the day, and if it weren't for the slow speed of the rest of the people, Zhao Dongli believed that he could learn this knife technique within a day.
Among the three exercises, the largest number of people selected by the preparatory members of the Yanwutang is this Songfeng Sword Technique, and the heaven-level Martial Arts of the Guy Zhao family is a sword technique, called the Wind and Rain Sword. The artistic conception of the pine wind sword lies in the wind blowing through the pine forest, rattling, the sword move is complete, and the dance will open, then there is such an artistic conception, in an instant, there are several swords attacking, like the pine branches blown by the wind, attacking together, making people unable to distinguish between reality and reality, and it is difficult to resist.
The wind and rain sword is more cumbersome, the speed is more rapid, when it comes out, it will be like wind and rain, so that the opponent can only see a sword light cover, when the sword light stops, it is the time when the sword blade enters the body and kills.
The cloak sword method is much simpler than the Songfeng sword, because the sword is heavier than the sword after all, and the power of the sword technique is more sufficient, and it is not easy to quickly change the sword move. But this sword technique is also faster than the bloody sword method, and the combination of body and continuous knife moves can also make the enemy tired to deal with.
And the other door splitting the empty palm is also known for its speed, the palm is more flexible than the sword, so that it is also like a ghost, the palm shakes the face, the body flashes, there are dozens of palms to shoot out, and the internal force is transformed from time to time, the virtual and the real are real, and the virtual and real are transformed, a little careless, and the virtual and real are transformed, and they are also quite powerful.
After all, the cloak knife method is not much of a loose wind sword technique, but it still took a day to teach all the moves and internal strength of the heart method to be roughly described, the first day is just to let the disciples know a rough idea, and in the next few days, the teaching will talk about the cloak knife method A move is dismantled and narrated in detail, and let the disciples practice.
