Seeing Wang Jun leave, everyone let out a long sigh. Of course, He Qizhou could tell that Wang Jun's words were really aimed at only him, but he didn't take it to heart and said excitedly to everyone: "Do you know, Wu
Who rented the building?" Seeing everyone's cold reaction, he turned to Zhang Qingju and said, "It was rented by the Xiao family."
Zhang Qingrou curled her lips and said: "We already knew this. We have already inquired with the boy in the building. Mr. Xiao is not here, so there is nothing strange about it. When Wang Jun came down just now, he said that Mr. Xiao was awarded another award. He is
I’m here to congratulate you on behalf of the college, and the real big shots don’t arrive until late at night.”
"Well, the view of the river from the fifth floor is really spectacular. The Xiao family is quite hospitable. Some relatives and friends invited me in to enjoy the view." He Qizhou was despised by Wang Jun and ignored by Zhang Qingrou, but he still wanted to regain some respect.
Lin Chuan said: "The waiter just informed me that there are empty seats on the fourth floor. When I wanted to go up, I was discovered by Wang Jun who happened to be coming downstairs. I am almost starving to death. Master, shall we go to eat first?"
"You're just stupid, you just know how to eat!" He Qizhou turned to Li Ruogu and said: "Brother Li, I'm sorry to cost you money. I don't know how the food in this restaurant is. If it's too elaborate, I'm afraid it won't satisfy your hunger! I'll treat you next time
You go to the south side of the city to have a meal and you’ll be satisfied!”
Zhang Qingrou looked at Qi Zhou with disdain, feeling a little ashamed to be with him. Li Ruogu smiled and said, "Thank you first, Brother He. I will definitely take care of you this time!"
The dishes at Baiyun Restaurant are indeed exquisite. In the private room on the fourth floor, six people who had missed their meal almost wiped out the full table of delicacies like hungry wolves. In order to satisfy He Qizhou's request, they also tasted the exquisite wines in the building.
However, most people have classes in the evening, so they just drink a cup of wine. The scenery from the fourth floor is not much different from that from the fifth floor, but in He Qizhou's words, the scenery on the fifth floor is naturally better than one or two o'clock. The last one
The checkout really shocked Qi Zhou and others. Including the tea fee on the third floor, the total was four hundred and sixty taels. Qi Zhou felt a little embarrassed and patted Li Ruogu's shoulder who was taking out the banknote to pay the bill and said:
"Brother Li, just help the victims from Jiangling again. The emperor's feet are really delicious!"
Li Ruogu said grandly: "Why are you being polite to me? Remember that the noodle stall will take care of the food next time."
It was past the hour after leaving the restaurant. Li Ruogu asked the waiting carriage to take the four of them back to school first, while he and Qi Zhou walked to the mansion. The Li Mansion is southwest of Baiyun Tower and directly north of Kyushu Pond in the Royal Garden.
In the alley, this area is the residence of dignitaries. The two of them walked and talked for less than two miles, and they arrived in less than a quarter of an hour.
The front door of Li Mansion is not very eye-catching. Next to the one-foot-wide Yimen, there is a small door no more than three feet wide. The red paint is peeling off and looks a bit old. However, under the eaves are the words "Prince Ning's Mansion".
momentum.
Li Ruogu introduced that the State of Qi had good relations with Tu Yuhun and donated the palace of the former Prince Qi to his family. He also named King Tu Yuhun the "King of Xining" and it was hereditary. When the Li family came over, they usually lived here.
As soon as he entered the palace, He Qizhou's eyes were opened again. Different from the narrow and outdated facade, the palace was five deep, with two large and small gardens and hundreds of houses. It was actually larger than the entire Jiangling Mansion's front and back offices combined.
Much bigger.
Not long after the two entered the mansion, a servant informed Li Zhong that someone had returned with the young master. Li Zhong was a little surprised at first, but after taking a closer look, he recognized the face that he had met by chance in Jiangling Mansion.
Being a descendant of Yang Zheng, he was actually a little excited.
After the three of them sat down in a living room facing the south and facing the sun, Qi Zhou couldn't wait to inquire about Yang Zheng's news.
Li Zhong was originally a generous person, and he was even more happy when he saw that Yang Zheng's adopted son was actually in the same class as his young master, so he recounted the past: when the Qi court was reorganizing the world, six masters challenged various factions in the world, and in the Hexi Corridor
The Tianshan Sect in the west is the last sect. It has been established for more than 300 years. It is the oldest sect after Quanzhen among the six sects. It was first established by the military stationed in the Western Regions. Due to the frequent changes in the imperial court,
, and soon it was completely reduced to a martial arts sect.
Most of them are Han disciples. After the founding of Da Qi, the Tianshan Sect immediately recognized Da Qi's orthodox status and was willing to contribute to Da Qi's defense of the western border. Therefore, the challenge from the six masters was just a formality. As the only sect located on the border, the Tianshan Sect
, his status is unshakable, no matter he wins or loses, he can join the six major sects, not to mention his profound foundation and strength cannot be underestimated.
At that time, it was agreed that the outcome would be determined by three battles. Our Tianshan sect has always been upright and disdained to use Tian Ji's horse racing strategy. I was the first to go into battle. I was just thirty years old that year. Unexpectedly, it was the Six Immortals of the Tianjia who deliberately disrupted the order of the battle and took the lead.
The one who came on stage turned out to be your adoptive father Yang Zheng.
It's funny to say that I was always regarded as a genius in the Tianshan sect at that time, and I also had a bad reputation in the martial arts world. Because I was about the same age as your adoptive father, I was very dissatisfied and attacked with all my might as soon as I came up. But your adoptive father
I defended steadily all the way and occasionally counterattacked with one or two moves. I only felt that I was slightly inferior to him, but I still had a chance of victory. And because I met my opponent, I used my full strength to fight. I played heartily and vigorously, and I used all I had learned to the best.
.
However, when I approached the 300 moves, I had an epiphany. He and I were not evenly matched, but we were thousands of miles apart. Although our Tianshan sect’s martial arts originated from the Central Plains, after nearly three hundred years of development, we have absorbed a large number of martial arts from the Western Regions.
The martial arts skills were already very different from those of the Central Plains martial arts. Yang Zheng just wanted to see more of my Tianshan sect's martial arts. He was young and had a bad temper at the time. As soon as he realized something was wrong, he withdrew from the fighting circle and simply accepted the defeat.
The next two battles ended in a draw, and the Tianshan faction accepted the court's conditions. However, I thought I was being teased by your adoptive father, and I had a bad temper. I went down the mountain to hide in peace. Afterwards, I thanked my master and came out of the mountain to return to Tuyuhun.
Oh, I was originally from Tuyuhun. My family has been a royal guard for generations and was given the surname Wang. The two hundred years of chaos in the Central Plains allowed a large number of Hu and Han people from the Central Plains to enter the Tuyuhun Kingdom in the west. Tuyuhun also took advantage of the situation to grow and move westward.
A large territory was opened up in the north, but the good times did not last long. The rise of the Zhou Kingdom in the north became even more powerful. After several wars, we lost the Tianshan Mountains and a large territory north of the desert. We had to join forces with the Qi Dynasty in the east to fight against the Zhou Dynasty.
, also respected Daqi as the suzerain state, so the Tianshan Sect also recruited many Tuyuhun disciples.
A month later, the Prince of Daqi visited our country in person, and your adoptive father found me in private and explained to me why we should learn more about the Tianshan School’s martial arts, and discussed with me how to promote some of the excellent Kung Fu of the Tianshan School to Tuyu
Hun and Qi State even asked our country to send more people to the newly established armament hall to learn Central Plains martial arts and jointly fight against the Zhou Dynasty.
By that time, I had already passed my anger, and found that Yang Zheng was extremely kind and not as violent as the legend said. He spent three whole days with me reviewing every move and style in the battle that day, and at the same time explaining
After studying a lot of martial arts from the Central Plains, I discovered that my "genius" was no different from a child in front of him. I gained more in three days than I did in three years! Your foster father has always been the person I admire the most, not only because
His unfathomable attainments are even more because of his tolerance for the world!
Qi Zhou asked silently: "Uncle Li, did you see my adoptive father again later?"
Li Zhong sighed and said: "I didn't expect that we would be separated forever after seeing each other in Xining. He said that he was looking forward to me coming to teach in the Armed Forces Hall. Twenty years ago, I followed the army to the north of Zhou Dynasty. Later, I heard about Yang in the army.
The Zhenggu Army fought hard and won consecutive battles. In the end, due to incorrect battle reports, the ambush soldiers refused to save the soldiers and took the princess of the Northern Zhou Dynasty prisoner. Because Qi State did not send troops as promised, we were outnumbered and withdrew the troops hastily. Later, it was reported that General Yang was finally assassinated.
I didn’t find out until several years later.”
"Then have you seen He Qingshan? What is their relationship like? Some people say that he broke military discipline because he wanted to save He Qingshan, and ended up dying at the border. How could he save a traitor?"
Li Zhongdao: "Xiao Qizhou, let's just say some things here, but we have to keep our mouths shut when we go out. The Six Immortals of the Tianjia are nominally headed by Yang Zheng, but they are actually divided into two factions, Yang Zheng and He Qingshan
, Zhenren Yuanbao is one sect, Yunmen sect Jiang Xian, Jiang Gui, and Jiang Shan are one sect. Jiang Xian is the great elder of Yunmen sect, and his cultivation level is not inferior to Zhenren Yuanbao. Jiang Gui is King Cheng who is now in charge of the Armed Forces Hall, and Jiang Shan is
Your Highness, the Crown Prince. The Crown Prince was able to become one of the Six Immortals mainly because the Emperor wanted to train him. However, he was indeed good at martial arts. After following Yang Zheng, his martial arts attainments improved by leaps and bounds. Two years later, he was indeed worthy of becoming one of the Six Immortals.
name.
The strongest ones are the young Yang Zheng and He Qingshan. Yang Zheng once told me personally that his relationship with He Qingshan for more than ten years is better than that of brothers. The two of them are growing stronger day by day as they prove each other and fight in the iron-blooded military.
Most of the martial arts ideas explained to me are attributed to He Qingshan, so going out to save people should be the most reasonable explanation.
It is said that He Qingshan never paid attention to the royal family and always tried his best to push away various rewards. As for why He Qingshan rebelled and surrendered, that was his brilliance. He took advantage of the royal disputes in the Northern Zhou Dynasty to split the Northern Zhou Dynasty.
Isn't it possible that Tu Yuhun and you, Da Qi, have enjoyed peace in the past twenty years because Northern Zhou Dynasty was divided into two? If I were Emperor Jiang, it would be too late to reward him. I only blame you for Da Qi, a great country in the Celestial Dynasty.
I don't allow others to have second thoughts. I just took the opportunity to weaken the influence of the Yang family. I always feel that General Yang has done too much to harm himself, so he should not agree to retaliate after he comes back."
Qi Zhou said disdainfully: "No matter how talented He Qingshan is, he is just a man who is greedy for life and afraid of death. If he is determined to defeat the Northern Zhou Dynasty, why have I never heard that he sent someone to contact us, Da Qi, to attack the Northern Zhou Dynasty?"
Li Zhongdao: "That's not impossible. You know people but don't know their hearts. I heard a news in the Western Regions. It is said that He Qingshan is still in the Northern Zhou Dynasty. He was captured again after the defeat and death of Helian Mingyue, the eldest princess of the Zhou Dynasty. As for
Now it’s unclear whether he is being treated as a courtesy or imprisoned.”
