Chapter 19: Building the Foundation Part I
Seeing Li Jingxiao's happy look, Li Xiaotian suddenly struck: "But you are just going out with the army, and the commander of the army will really arrange other generals." However, for the sake of your actions in the army, I will give you the sword of Shang Fang, and I will drive the expedition on my behalf. ”
Originally, Li Jingxiao didn't think that he would directly lead the troops, after all, he only knew a few things, and in the eyes of most people, he was just an eleven or twelve-year-old child at this time. And letting a child lead a large army against the barbarian tribe is a bit of a child's play, and many people are dissatisfied with it, but secondly, if someone thinks that this is the royal family and their lives are used as entertainment, then maybe there will be a mutiny.
Li Jingxiao, who had been mentally prepared for this, also got a Shangfang sword at this moment, that is, it was like getting a military order, and it would be more convenient to act in the army in the future.
When Li Jinglun heard Li Xiaotian's words, he couldn't help but want to step forward and ask, but was pulled by Empress Xiangyi.
After the negotiation of this matter, Li Jingxiao and the others retreated. went out outside, Li Jingxiao didn't bother to pay attention to Li Jinglun and Queen Xiangyi, walked directly by their side, and left with a swagger.
"You!" Li Jinglun was very unhappy when he saw no one in Li Jingxiao's eyes, and he wanted to rush up to teach him a lesson, but he was stopped by Empress Xiangyi here.
Pulled away, Li Jinglun turned his face and looked at Empress Xiangyi suspiciously. Looking at Li Jinglun's expression, Empress Xiangyi said slowly: "Forget it, don't have any overt grievances with him for the time being, especially here, otherwise if you are seen by the saint, all your exploits will turn into illusions." ”
"Yes, the son listens to the mother. I was really a little angry just now, and I understood this in my heart, so I naturally agreed. After speaking, he remembered his previous question, and continued to ask: "Queen Mother, why didn't you let your sons lead the troops just now? If you can conquer the barbarian clan, with this merit, those elders of the imperial family can't say anything. ”
After Li Jinglun finished speaking, Empress Xiangyi said worriedly: "I also want you to establish merit, but the queen mother is even more afraid of losing you, and I heard the news about the barbarian tribe in the palace today, so I don't want you to take risks." ”
Knowing the reason why Empress Xiangyi made this decision, Li Jinglun instantly felt bad, and immediately said: "The son came back today, and the queen mother heard the news today, presumably the thirteen emperor brothers must be making trouble from it, and wanted the queen mother to come forward to persuade my father not to let me lead the troops to the battle." ”
Listening to Li Jingxiao's analysis, Empress Xiangyi was not surprised, and responded calmly: "Lun'er, you can think of it, how can the queen mother not think of it." But I also asked the opinions of several generals in the court, if there is no special means to fight the barbarians this time, then the best thing is probably just a stalemate, and if you want to win, you only have to say one word, difficult!"
"But I can't let the thirteen emperor brothers go like this, if he is lucky, plus he has the support of the royal family, I am afraid that his father will make him the crown prince. But so, Li Jinglun still said anxiously.
"Don't be careful, Lun'er, the queen mother has already thought of a way for you. Empress Xiangyi did not have the slightest hurry, and said slowly, "This battle has not been in a few years, and there is no end to it, and there are many opportunities for us to intervene in it, how can it be so easy for them to win." After a two-lose fight in front of you, you will be the next to make a contribution. ”
"I see, it is still the queen mother's foresight, and Lun'er still has to learn more from the queen mother. Although he didn't know Empress Xiangyi's overall plan, looking at Empress Xiangyi's confident expression, Li Jinglun was relieved.
The battle ahead was anxious, and Li Xiaotian was given no time, so a few days later, the army was ready. The candidate for the post of generalissimo, Li Xiaotian was also selected in a hurry, and he was Li Xiaotian's absolute confidant, Li Xiaoyi.
Li Xiaoyi was born and died on the battlefield with Li Xiaotian back then, and had a lifelong friendship. When Li Xiaotian ascended to the throne, he directly appointed him as a general against all odds, and gave him the surname Li Xiaoyi, which is enough to show the importance attached to him. And Li Xiaoyi did not disappoint Li Xiaotian, in the position of a general, he continued to make meritorious contributions, and became one of the famous generals in a short period of time, making everyone speechless with his strength and merits.
This time, because Li Jingxiao was going to go with the army, Li Xiaotian chose Li Xiaoyi very firmly in this candidate, and after the appointment, Li Xiaotian discussed with him for a long time and told most of Li Jingxiao's affairs.
The next day, after a ceremony was held in the imperial city, Li Jingxiao set off with the army. Because Li Xiaotian felt sorry for Li Jingxiao's son, he forcibly arranged a gorgeous carriage in the convoy. Li Jingxiao was very dissatisfied, but he was dissuaded by the sword soul and accepted this fact.
After getting the news that Li Jingxiao was going to go on an expedition to the north with the army, Concubine Hua wanted to break into Li Xiaotian and ask Li Xiaotian to take back her fate, but she was dissuaded by Li Jingxiao for a long time.
Li Jingxiao was about to leave Huaxian Palace, and Li Xiaotian was worried about Concubine Hua's safety, so he wanted to take her to his side. But Li Xiaotian was a step late, and Concubine Hua had already been taken into the royal family early.
Li Xiaotian saw that his concubine was quietly picked up without asking him, so he was ready to make a big fuss about the royal family, but he was ruthlessly suppressed by the elders of the royal family.
Regarding this farce in the palace, Li Jingxiao, who had already left the imperial city with the army at this time, was completely ignorant.
On the way, sitting in the gorgeous carriage, Li Jingxiao said with an unhappy face: "Why do you want me to go out with the army but sit in such a gorgeous carriage, where is it a bit like going to war." ”
Hearing Li Jingxiao's voice, the sword soul immediately appeared and responded: "What's the hurry, and even though you can't go in a gorgeous carriage when you send troops to fight, anyway, no one will accept your existence now, no matter how you do, it's the same." ”
"Hey, that's what I said, I'm really looking forward to arriving at the battlefield as soon as possible, and going back to protect the queen mother after a quick battle. ”
"Okay, let's get to business without talking about those things. ”
As the Sword Soul spoke, Li Jingxiao's attention was also retracted, and he asked, "By the way, why do you want me to go to the land of the Northern Barbarian Clan?"
"You have entered the innate stage, and you have to prepare for the next step of building the foundation, if you are in the palace, this preparation will inevitably be discovered, so you can only do it outside, and this time you are really lucky, you can go to the area where the barbarian tribe is located. ”
Building a foundation is the beginning of cultivation, as long as the foundation is successful, you will be able to have a power beyond mortals, so knowing that you can build a foundation, Li Jingxiao's mood is much better in an instant. However, in addition to being overjoyed, Li Jingxiao heard the words behind the sword soul, and asked suspiciously, "What do you have here?"
"It doesn't hurt to let you know in advance, it's going to start soon. The sword soul did not hide it from Li Jingxiao this time, and said frankly, "In the mountain range where the barbarian tribe lives, only a race like the barbarian tribe can survive, so basically no one can move the genius earth treasure inside, and this time it will naturally take as much as it can take away." ”
However, Li Jingxiao hadn't started cultivating yet, and he had no concept of these things, so after the sword soul finished speaking excitedly, Li Jingxiao was expressionless, and the sword soul was deeply hit in an instant.
Finding Li Jingxiao's expression, the sword soul felt as if he had played the piano to the cow, but now would not be the time to explain this matter, so he changed his mind and said: "Forget it, you still don't understand the value of these things, wait for you to slowly understand it in the future." Now I will pass on the first part of the foundation building in the Chaos Heavenly Book, after you get it, you should practice it well, and you must not rush to build the foundation, as long as you have enough foundation, you will reach a higher height in the future. ”
After speaking, the soul power of the sword soul began to contact Li Jingxiao's spiritual realm, and then suddenly, in the soul power of the sword soul, an extremely strong intent rushed out. This power does not belong to the sword soul, but it is very similar to the vague aura emanating from Li Jingxiao's body.
Although this idea carries a strong coercion, in Li Jingxiao's mind, it seems to be suppressed by Li Jingxiao, and obediently passes on the things recorded in the idea to Li Jingxiao.
After a hundred breaths of time, his thoughts disappeared, and Li Jingxiao had many more memories in his memory.
Looking at these memories, Li Jingxiao slowly asked: "These are the first chapters of the foundation building! But why do I not know any of the words on it, but I can understand this scripture thoroughly?"
"It's strange that you can't get it all right, it's meant for you. And this scripture, except for people who have the same physique as you, as long as they are not the ultimate genius, there is almost no ability to understand it. The sword soul looked at Li Jingxiao and replied as if he were looking at a dirt bun.
Although he was despised by the sword soul, Li Jingxiao didn't care at all, in the past few years, he had long been familiar with this, and all the resentment was accumulating, waiting for revenge when he had the opportunity in the future.
Li Jingxiao, as always, chose to be silent about the contempt of the sword soul, the sword soul's fist seemed to hit the cotton, and he suddenly didn't feel anything, so he continued in disappointment: "You just start cultivating according to this, and the rest of the things are put aside, and don't have any doubts in the process of cultivation." ”
After the sword soul finished speaking, it disappeared in Li Jingxiao's mind. Li Jingxiao didn't pay attention to the sword soul, the scriptures had already arrived, Li Jingxiao ordered the generalissimo Li Xiao outside, and began to cultivate.
