In fact, as soon as Zhaohu saw Liuzi, he knew that it must be Liuzi's fault, and then compared with what Nineteen said, he had guessed the general thing. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info but Zhaohu doesn't want to get involved in the disputes between the princes. So, he hugged his fist at Xiong Tong and said politely:

"Second Prince, you are the oldest here, can the second prince escort the sixth prince back to the house?"

Xiong informed that he couldn't refuse, so he nodded and said, "Okay." ”

Zhaohu hugged his fist at Xiang Bei again, and said, "Xiangbei Gongzi, please escort the nineteenth son back to Biyou Palace, okay?"

Xiang Bei smiled and said, "No problem. ”

Zhaohu looked at the onlookers and said, "I will report this matter to the king, and the king will definitely send someone to find out and then make a decision." Then all they have to do is tell the truth what they have seen. Now please disperse!"

A fight has come to an end for the time being. On the way back to Biyou Palace, Xiang Bei asked Nineteen curiously;

"Nineteenth Prince, you are so good! What kind of kung fu are you practicing? ”

Nineteen has a good impression of this big brother who dares to speak up, although the difference between the two is close to ten years, but the two have a very tacit feeling when they meet. Nineteen smiled and said:

"I practice a kind of qigong method, but I can't say the specifics clearly. I haven't learned any martial arts, so it's better for Brother Xiang to teach me. ”

Xiang Bei smiled bitterly: "Your master is so powerful, how dare I teach you? The two of them talked and laughed with Ziyan all the way, and soon arrived at Biyou Palace, and Xiang Bei was inconvenient to stay in the palace, so he said goodbye and left.

After listening to Ziyan's chattering report, Concubine Xi had no psychological burden on the matter of the nineteenth beating of the six sons, and just said coldly: "These six sons will not appear in the palace again." ”

Sure enough, the next day, when Nineteen came to the Hall of Talents again, Taifu Shenzi solemnly announced that the sixth son Xiong Wan disturbed the palace school, and then committed murder with a sword in the Chu Palace, and was expelled from the palace school. In the eyes of the sixth son, this punishment is not a bad thing, he was unwilling to go to the palace school to attend classes, and the expulsion from the palace school was his wish. However, it was too humiliating to be beaten by a nine-year-old child. He was angry about this, and he and Nineteen also formed a big enmity. In this case, Nineteen received no punishment.

Without the sixth son, the second son and the third son have also stopped. There was no trouble, and the other princes naturally quieted down, and the order of the palace school became better and better.

Soon, Shenzi brought an edict from the king of Chu, appointing the second prince Xiong Tong as the senior and the ninth son Xiong Huai as the senior and the ninth son Xiong Huai as the senior senior. Zuo, Fu also, is the meaning of Fu senior. Seniors and seniors have the responsibility to protect their juniors and sisters, and in the event of an accident, seniors and seniors will be punished first. The king of Chu is really smart, and after Xiong Tong and Xiong Huai became seniors, they didn't dare to fight on the surface. Shenzi, Xu Sheng, and Lu Sheng could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

Shinko has to come to class almost every day. He was knowledgeable and eloquent, first talking about the Spring and Autumn Period, then the Analects, and then Huang Lao, and he spoke wildly. Although the princes seemed to understand whether they understood or not, they did not dare to make random mistakes. Occasionally, Xu Sheng and Lu Sheng can also answer each other fluently, and everything is safe. Occasionally, Shenzi also told some historical stories such as the Three Emperors and Five Emperors, Tang Vaxia Ji, Yi Yin's exile of Taijia, Fu Shuo's assistance to Wu Ding, King Wu's war, and Zhou Gong's recruitment of talents.

Nineteen is the greatest harvest of all the sons, he lost his mother at a young age, and studied art in Shinan Mountain, but his reading and literacy were somewhat wasted. Take advantage of this opportunity to learn from the palace, while listening to Shenzi's profound knowledge, and on the other hand, learning to read and break sentences with Lu Sheng. Relatively speaking, he learned more from Lu Sheng, after all, Shenzi's knowledge was still too far from his comprehension ability. Fortunately, Nineteen has a good memory and can not understand much of Shinko's teachings, but most of the content is firmly memorized through rote memorization.

In addition to participating in the palace study every day, Nineteen insisted on practicing qi in the morning and evening, and at the same time squeezed out four hours a day to practice the dragon phantom footwork as much as possible. Now, Nineteen pairs of this divine technique footwork are already very proficient, and they can already instantly transform four body techniques in the air. And in the hunt game between him and Xiao Jin, the roles have also been reversed, and Nineteen pursues Xiao Jin. Xiao Jin was tortured by Nineteen every day. The nineteenth day was very fulfilling and very pleasant.

One day, after Gong Xue was dispersed, Shenzi left Nineteen alone. Then he took out a package very solemnly, opened it, and found a stack of yellow silk books inside. Shenzi gently rubbed the silk book with his hand, and then said to Nineteen seriously:

"This Tao Te Ching was copied by the Song people, and the use of high-grade Song silk was used, and I have kept it for 20 years. Today, the teacher will give you this precious thing, hoping that you will cherish it and recite this sutra in your heart, and your future achievements in Taoism are limitless!"

Nineteen was taken aback and asked suspiciously, "Teacher, why did you give it to me?"

Shenzi said: "The teacher gave the disciple a scripture, it is a normal thing, where did it come from?"

Nineteen Dao: "However, this scripture is copied on Song silk, it must be very precious, many students, why did they just give it to me?"

Nineteen only knew that Song silk was precious, but they didn't know that the content of this scripture was even more rare. It turned out that in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, Taoism certainly occupied an absolute dominant position among the hundred schools, but because the various sects of Taoism were very mixed, most of the people who were truly advanced in Taoism were unwilling to recruit talents and participate in the sects. So much so that although Lao Tzu's "Moral Truth" is widely circulated, it has the most errors, and the real whole book and the real book are extremely rare. Although the state of Chu was a big country, the monarchs of the state of Chu in history rarely had studious people and had very little collection of books; the huge Chu palace did not have the original copy of the "Tao Te Ching". Shenzi took out this silk book today, it is the real whole book and the real book, and it is also the only one book for the Chu State. Nineteen didn't know the mystery in it, and if he knew, he wouldn't dare to ask for it.

Shenzi's questioning of Nineteen showed a helpless wry smile. Gently stroking Nineteen's head, he said softly:

"You kid has a lot of problems. The reason why the teacher gave it to you is, of course, because you need it most. Your master is the ancestor of today's Taoism, not only has a high seniority, but also has a high moral level, and the teacher also admires him very much. The teacher and your master are both of the same Taoist lineage, but they belong to different schools. The Huang Lao's learning that the teacher is now promoting attaches more importance to the study of knowledge and reason, and it is inferior to other schools in Taoism. However, there is a specialization in the art industry, and the teacher thinks that it is more important to study the reason. This "Tao Te Ching" is written by the Taoist ancestor Lao Tzu, which is the ultimate of reason and the supreme treasure of Taoism. As a Taoist disciple, how can you not learn?"

Nineteen suddenly came to his senses, nodded and said, "The disciple understands, it's just that the teacher gave him something valuable, and the disciple doesn't know what to repay?"

Shenzi sighed faintly and said sadly: "You don't have to worry, and you don't have to repay it." You only need to learn something, and the biggest regret in the old man's heart may be slightly explained. Actually, the teacher owes the little prince a favor!"

When Nineteen heard this, he became more and more incomprehensible. Hurriedly asked:

"How can the teacher owe me a favor? Please speak up to the teacher to solve the confusion in the disciple's heart. ”

Shenzi was silent for a long time, shook his head and said, "The little prince is still young, wait until you are a little older, and then explore this matter." At that time, the teacher will be able to have no scruples, know everything, and say everything. Now is not the time to talk about it!"

Nineteen returned to Biyou Palace with a stomach full of doubts. He handed the silk book to Concubine Xi, and then asked, "What secrets does Mr. Shenzi have to do with me?"

Concubine Xi thought for a long time, and suddenly became alert. What secrets could there be in a child? Could it be related to the death of the nineteenth biological mother? I have long heard that the Zheng case is confusing and there are many doubts. That Uncle Zheng was very wise, how could he be so confused that he fought with Qiang Chu, moths to the fire, and rebelled for no reason? However, this matter is an internal matter of the Chu State, and what does it have to do with Shenzi from the Qi State? After all, Concubine Xi still did not figure it out. However, the stakes are very high, and once the 19th is implicated, it will be a catastrophe. Thinking of this, Concubine Xi hurriedly said to Nineteen solemnly: "Mr. Shenzi must be mistaken, what secrets do you have as a nine-year-old prince?" But Mr. doesn't have to tell anyone about it, and don't even mention the gift of books to anyone. The palace is complicated, and there is no need to arouse suspicion. ”

Nineteen was confused when he heard it, but out of trust in Concubine Xi, he solemnly agreed. Despite this, the doubts in my heart have not only decreased, but have become greater. Nineteen secretly made up his mind that if he had a chance in the future, he would definitely find Mr. Shenzi and ask things clearly.

Time flies quickly, the Spring Festival is here in a blink of an eye, and Gongxue has a month's vacation. Gong Xue was very busy. Nineteen has nothing to do with busyness, lives a carefree life, except for cultivation, is to have a good time with Xiaojin. The king of Chu is getting older and older, his body is tired, and he is afraid of the cold, so he rarely comes to Biyou Palace. After a while, he would send a eunuch to summon Nineteen and Concubine Xi to Zhanghuatai to see him, have lunch together, and then let the two go back to the palace. Sometimes, the queen would lead Xiongyue to see the nineteenth. Xiong Yue and Nineteen are the same as in the palace, they are of the same age, and the two children can be said to be familiar at first sight. Xiong Yue was nineteen and one years old, exactly ten years old, so she became Yue'er's sister. This Xiong Yue doesn't like female workers, but likes to dance with guns and sticks. She gave nineteen beautiful wooden swords, and taught nineteen sets of gentlemen's swordsmanship. This gentleman's swordsmanship, which originated in Qilu and was popular in Zhao Wei, is one of the most famous swordsmanship in the Central Plains. The swordsmanship advocates uprightness, facing attacks head-on, dense and rigorous moves, dancing elegantly and chicly, and a gentlemanly demeanor. Nineteen learned, of course, the basic swordsmanship of the Junzi Sword, and the two often competed with each other. It's a pity that Nineteen's body is too fast, and he has internal strength, although Yue'er is a teacher, he always can't beat his students, and his wooden sword is often broken by Nineteen. At first, Yue'er was not convinced. But after a long time, she found that Nineteen had actually not done her best and always let her, but she still lost like this. She finally gave up, she knew that the gap between the two was too big, and they were not on the same level at all. However, this did not affect the friendship between the two, and the sister and brother got along like glue. Even if the queen didn't come, Yue'er often went to Biyou Palace to find Nineteen, and in the end, Yue'er followed Nineteen to the big forest to find Xiaojin to play. The two and a monkey were inseparable for a period of time.

After the third day of the first month, the god of the year was sent away. Concubine Xi called Nineteen to her and said solemnly:

"Nineteen, on the fifteenth day of the first month, all major families will go to Jingshan to worship their ancestors. You should also pay homage to your birth mother. I have already told the king, and he has given his permission, and I have arranged for ten third-class guards and three hundred ironclad soldiers to accompany us together. Some time ago, your biological mother's cemetery was also renovated in my name, you can rest assured, this time you must let your biological mother be beautiful. ”

Nineteen choked up and said, "Thank you, Sister Xifei." ”

Concubine Xi gently wiped away the tears on Nineteen's face, and said softly: "Although your biological mother has left you, I will always be by your side." I will be your sister and your stepmother, and you will not be lonely. ”

Nineteen nodded meekly, and now Concubine Xi's position in his heart was becoming more and more important.
