Chapter 50: The Banquet
Li Qing followed the palace maid through the Vermilion Bird Gate and entered the interior of the imperial city. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
After entering the interior of the imperial city, you can see guards wearing iron armor walking by from time to time, and the degree of defense suddenly increases.
Soon Li Qing noticed that the armor they were wearing was different, and couldn't help asking: "Sister Xiaoyu, why are their armors different, just now they were black iron armor, but now what they see is red iron armor." ”
The palace maid named Xiaoyu was called her sister by Li Qing, and she couldn't help but blush, and explained: "I heard that the black iron armor is the strength of passers-by, and it is just an ordinary guard. And the Red Iron Armor, known as the Red Armor Guard, is the best of the Praetorian Guards after special training, normal competition is not the opponent of the Spiegel, life and death can fight to the death Spiegel!"
Li Qing was taken aback when he heard this, the wave of guards who walked by just now was comparable to the Spiegel martial artists! This was too terrifying!
What kind of training is the special training of the Red Armor Guard? Li Qing was very curious.
After walking for about an hour, Li Qing arrived at an elegant courtyard, where there were two red armor guards guarding the gate of the courtyard, and there were red armor guards patrolling outside the courtyard.
Li Qing entered the courtyard alone, and saw Yuwen Liuyi and Ji Shuang from a distance, but he never saw Yushang.
"Brother Li met again. Ji Shuang came over to say hello.
"I've seen Brother Ji. Li Qing returned, Ji Shuang gave him a good impression, and he always felt that Ji Shuang was deeply hidden, and being able to come to the banquet hosted by the princess naturally showed this.
Yuwen Liuyi, who was in the distance, didn't come over to say hello, glanced at Li Qing from a distance, and talked to a few men who admired her on the side.
"The big businessman is still martial, the martial arts are noble, and the literature is light, how can this poor scholar come here. After a while, two saber boys walked up and mocked.
"The literati who govern the world, the warriors of the troubled times, how can these ignorant gentlemen understand. The two people who just walked by are Li Shi's friends, and Brother Li doesn't have to care. Ji Shuang said.
Li Qing nodded absently.
"Brother Li, I talked to my master about you, and he really wanted to make friends with you. Ji Shuang said sincerely.
Ji Shuang's master? It can't be a gray-haired old man? Li Qing couldn't help but think of the old art professor in the university, and couldn't help but smile dryly: "Okay, okay, when I have time, I'll visit." "But the psychology said that the ghost wants to be friends with the old professor.
Ji Shuang followed Li Qing's side, constantly talking about poems and songs, famous paintings and paintings, and Li Qing, who listened to it, couldn't wait to kick him away. He had no interest in poetry and paintings.
"Brother Xu, I recently comprehended a trick with Long Yinyue, and I hope Brother Xu will give me some advice. Next to the rockery, a brocade man said to his friend.
The brocade man drew his sword, and in an instant, a light golden streamer shot out, smashing a hole in the rockery.
The brocade man's friend couldn't help but applaud, "What a gorgeous sword move." ”
However, the man who was called Brother Xu said coldly: "It's flashy, it's useless." ”
The mocked brocade man was a little disappointed, but he didn't get angry, but thanked him: "Brother Xie Xu for guidance." ”
Li Qing on the side was quite surprised and asked, "Who is that man surnamed Xu?"
Ji Shuang said: "His name is Xu Baixiong, the son of Xu Tianshan, the commander of the Red Armor Guard, he is young, his cultivation is already subtle, he is extremely ruthless, and the princess can be said to be a childhood sweetheart." ”
"It's so young. Li Qing couldn't help but sigh.
"Well, Xu Baixiong can be ranked in the top ten among the younger generation of Chaoge, and he can be regarded as a young man. ”
Is it possible that such a young person can only be in the top ten? Li Qing couldn't help but gasp, now he felt that there were so many geniuses, and the road to martial arts was very difficult.
"Are you Li Qing?" Xu Baixiong walked over.
"It's down there. ”
As soon as Li Qing finished speaking, Xu Baixiong reached out and hit Li Qing's chest with a palm. Li Qing was furious, although he couldn't stop this palm, he didn't want to sit still, and he just wanted to shake it.
Suddenly, Ji Shuang pressed Xu Baixiong's arm with one hand and said with a smile: "Brother Xu is too reckless, Princess Yushang will be unhappy." ”
After Xu Baixiong heard the princess, he withdrew his palm and glanced at Li Qing, "Only the weak will seek refuge, and you don't deserve the princess's favor at all." After speaking, Xu Baixiong solemnly looked at Ji Shuang and strode away, when Ji Shuang held his arm just now, the strength of his palm was inexplicably removed.
Li Qing had a calm face, did not speak, and clenched his fists tightly.
The rest of the people looked at Li Qing sarcastically, thanks to Li Shi's blessing, they had all heard of Li Qing, probably because Li Qing was just a poor sour literati who danced and wrote, and it was not worth mentioning. In this martial country, everyone is more martial than civil.
Li Qing and Ji Shuang simply found a place to sit, Ji Shuang still nagged about how to draw well and how to draw badly, Li Qing's left ear went in and out of his right ear, and he was too lazy to take care of it.
"Hey, Li Qing, why don't you come and say hello to me!" I don't know when, Yuwen Liuyi came over, very dissatisfied.
"Aren't you a handsome man on your left hand and a talented man on your right hand, and you're having a good conversation? Li Qing leaned against the wooden pillar and lay lazily.
"Hmm, you're not happy to see me chatting with other men, aren't you?" Yuwen Liuyi said happily.
"Off the line. Li Qing replied impatiently and closed his eyes.
Yuwen Liuyi's chest rose and fell in anger, and he turned his head and yelled at the two followers behind him: "You two, throw that person into the pond." ”
Yuwen Liuyi is beautiful, her martial arts are high, and the first two little white faces were yelled at by her like this, how could she have her own thoughts, and immediately rushed towards Li Qing.
Li Qing glanced at the two men who rushed towards him, and said in his heart: I am a weak scholar? I am a man who walks in the dense forest and river area all the year round!
Hearing the sound of falling into the water, the people nearby looked at it in amazement, and the people who had mocked Li Qing as a weak scholar all closed their mouths and left secretly.
Being able to provoke the two men passing through the realm so easily shows that Li Qing has the strength of the mirror in those two times.
Nowadays, Li Qingdanqing's method is still too shallow, and he must use the pen to exert the pen power that is not weaker than Mingjing, once he does not have the autumn in hand, he will not be able to exert this pen power.
"It's a good hand or two, Brother Li's strength is really good!" Ji Shuang boasted.
Yuwen Liuyi thought that Li Qing let her be bullied by a gang of hooligans a few days ago (in the end, she bullied the hooligans), and she was very angry when she thought of this. "Thinking that I am as beautiful as a flower, and give you the opportunity to be a hero to save the beauty, you dare to be indifferent, this is simply a naked insult, do you know?" Thinking of this, Yuwen Liuyi said angrily: "Look at me cleaning you up!"
Everyone was very happy to see Yuwen Liuyi make a move, and I heard that Yuwen Liuyi was taken to the army of the Honghu Front by his father Yuwen Dafang at the age of ten, and he didn't let her return to Chaoge City until he was sixteen years old.
Once she makes a move, Yuwen Liuyi is the kind of woman who doesn't let her eyebrows go.
