Carrying the Sword into the Rivers and Lakes Chapter 17: The Eunuch Loyalty to Qi
When the emperor heard Yan Qingchuan's report, he was not surprised. He just asked lightly: "Can you do it with your dragon palm technique?"
Yan Qingchuan replied shamefully: "Your Majesty, the selection of the Nine Gate Guards is extremely strict. Even if they are not in the realm of martial arts, they are all soldiers who have experienced hundreds of battles. With the power of a humble minister, how many people can be killed if you have the first glimpse of the realm?"
, and it is impossible to leave no traces on their bodies. If these nine guards are to be killed instantly without any resistance, they must at least know the skills of the heavenly realm to be able to do it."
The emperor looked at the shameful face of the young man in front of him and said with a smile: "There is no need to be anxious in the journey of martial arts. You are still young, so there is no need to worry. I summoned you today just to let you take a rest. Although I have the intention to serve the country, my body is not good.
It's capital. If you work all day long, you will get tired sooner or later and cause problems. You don't have to be on duty today. You can only rest in the side hall and recuperate your energy. I have summoned your father to the palace tomorrow. After tomorrow morning, I will go with you to meet you.
Father's reunion".
Yan Qingchuan heard the emperor's caring words, and heard that his father would enter the palace tomorrow, so he wanted to express his gratitude. However, he then thought about the fact that he was a man staying overnight in the palace, so he was not immune to the inappropriate manners, so he thanked him and said: "I thank you for your kindness, your majesty.
But Wei Chen stayed in the palace overnight, but he ended up not being in line with etiquette."
"I'm not worried. Why are you worried? Are you still afraid of those officials?" The emperor arrived.
"Wei ministers received the order to kowtow to thank Heaven." Yan Qingchuan did not dare to resist the order, so he had to kneel down to thank God.
"Zhongqi, lead Commander Yan to the side hall to rest," the emperor ordered the eunuch Zhongqi who had been waiting beside him.
"Commander Yan, follow me." Zhong Qi hunched over and led Yan Qinchuan to the side hall to rest. Yan Qingchuan followed Zhong Qi without squinting, staring at his feet all the way. Zhong Qi asked first.
Said: "Commander Yan, I just heard from you in the Yunshu Palace that the group of nine guards were killed by martial arts masters above the Zhitian realm, right?"
Yan Qingchuan was shocked. He thought that he had been to the palace many times and had never heard the eunuch beside the emperor say anything else. Today, he took the initiative to ask about the matter. He was hesitant in his heart whether to tell the father-in-law about the case.
Zhongqi looked at Yan Qingchuan's hesitant expression and said with a smile: "Commander Yan, there is no need to be embarrassed. I only asked these nine guards about their injuries to the heart and internal organs. If I guessed right, Commander Yan might as well give a signal. I don't want to ask too much."
One or two, but Commander Yan didn’t say anything to the old slave, right?”
Yan Qingchuan looked at the great eunuch in front of him who had been with him for many years. He thought that he was indeed someone who had been with the Holy Emperor for many years. He could see through his own thoughts at a glance.
Seeing that Yan Qingchuan did not answer, Zhongqi said: "All the five internal organs are injured, but the heart and pulse are all broken." After saying that, he looked at Yan Qingchuan, and seeing that Yan Qingchuan did not respond at all, he continued: "The whole body is not injured, and the face is empty.
Smiling, all the five internal organs are purple and black, and the heart is blocked and dead." Looking at Yan Qingchuan, he saw that Yan Qingchuan was still looking straight at his feet. As he walked slowly, Zhongqi said again: "The five internal organs are six internal organs.
, are all like sword stabs, and the heart is like being cut off by a sharp sword. The sword is so fast that it makes people die without feeling." As soon as Zhong Qi finished speaking, Yan Qingchuan paused for a moment before continuing to follow him.
Moving forward, Zhong Qi's rickety body seemed to bend deeper, but Yan Qingchuan, who was following behind him, did not see that the eunuch had a glimmer of light in his eyes and a strange smile on his lips.
Yan Qingchuan, who was following Zhong Qi, was even more frightened. This stooped eunuch, who had been living in the palace with the Holy Master for a long time, unexpectedly revealed the internal injuries of the nine guards after a few casual questions.
He knew that he only found out about these after using his inner breath to explore, but these only surprised Yan Qingchuan, and what made Yan Qingchuan feel a little scared was that he followed Zhongqi all the way out of the back hall of Yunshu Palace, here.
On the way to the side hall, I was unknowingly being led by Zhongqi to disrupt my pace. You must know that the first step in practicing Yulong Yuan Scale Palm is the heart method, and the Yuan Scale Step is the second. Now that I have achieved some success in You Long Palm, I can face the enemy.
Then he would use his unique Yuanlin pace to bring the enemy into his own pace, so that the enemy would fall into the range of the wandering dragon palm and be unable to escape. But now he just followed the old eunuch for a few steps, but was caught
The rhythm of his steps was disrupted. Yan Qingchuan suppressed a trace of fear in his heart. He used the luck in his heart to move his palms, stepped on Yuanlin steps, breathed in and out of his mouth, and adjusted his steps.
The side hall of Yunshu Hall and the main hall are built to pass through a long verandah. At this moment, Yan Qingchuan followed Zhong Qi and walked into the verandah.
Just when General Yan Qingchuan was working on his mental skills and breathing in and out, Eunuch Zhongqi, who was leading the way, turned his head slightly, and then continued to lead the way with his rickety body. He saw that his father-in-law's pace gradually slowed down, and his figure
But it was several times faster. Yan Qingchuan was shocked again, this father-in-law was actually good at martial arts, and he also knew the Qinggong method of "shrinking the earth a thousand miles". Young people always have the desire to be strong and competitive, so he stepped forward quickly with deep steps under his feet,
Enveloping Eunuch Zhongqi within the scope of his wandering dragon palm, he took a first look at the movement of the territory in his palm. At this moment, the father-in-law in front of him had his backside exposed under his palm. Yan Qingchuan thought to himself, for those who practice martial arts, their backside is
It was a fatal spot, how could it be exposed so easily? Just as he was about to see it, he suddenly felt a tightness in his chest, and his steps were chaotic. It was as if an invisible wave of air was pushing against his chest. Yan Qingchuan took several steps back and was about to lose his balance.
, I felt a blur in front of my eyes. In the middle of my breath, someone was holding me back. It was Eunuch Zhongqi who was in front of him just now. Yan Qingchuan only remembered that his rickety figure had his back to him, but now he had a smile on his lips.
He was holding himself up, and his body was as fast as his father, who was famous in the martial arts world.
Yan Qingchuan was dissatisfied at first, but when he looked down, he saw Eunuch Zhongqi supporting his palm. At this moment, he was controlling the Tianjing, Chize, and Xiaohai acupoints on his right arm. If Eunuch Zhongqi used internal force to infuse him while holding him, he would
His arm will definitely be crippled.
At this moment, the loyal Eunuch Qi supported Yan Qingchuan with a smile, and his high-pitched voice reached Yan Qingchuan's ears: "Commander Yan, this palace has just been swept with water recently. The floor tiles are a little slippery. Please be careful. You are a minister valued by the Holy See.
If you are injured, I can’t bear it.”
At this time, Yan Qingchuan had completely lost the spirit of winning as a young man. He hurriedly raised his hands and saluted Zhongqi and said: "My father once said that there are many capable people and strangers in the world. I only believed my father's words when I saw my father-in-law today. I just didn't expect that there are many talented people in the world."
Qingchuan is truly honored to be able to meet a master of this generation in this deep palace."
"Commander Yan, the young hero, has an unlimited future. This old slave is just an old dog beside the Holy Master." Zhong Qi saw that Yan Qingchuan's figure had stabilized, so he let go of his hand, lowered his hands and saluted Yan Qingchuan, and said no more.
The rickety body continued to go to the side hall. After a while, Zhongqi brought Yan Qingchuan to the side hall.
Although this is the side hall of Yunshu, it still has dozens of feet of space, including writing desks and couches.
Entering the side hall, Zhong Qi gave high fives to the outside of the hall. Two young eunuchs bowed into the hall. Zhong Qi said: "Commander Yan, according to his orders, will stay in Yunshu Hall tonight. You go and prepare some hot water for Commander Yan."
Take a wash."
"Yes", the two eunuchs accepted the order softly and walked out of the side hall.
Zhong Qi turned around and saluted Yan Qingchuan: "Commander Yan, according to the Holy Spirit's decree today, you can rest here. The old slave has already ordered you to go down. Hot water will be delivered in a moment. The old slave will go back and report to the Holy Spirit."
Already."
"Thank you, father-in-law. Please go slowly." At this moment, Yan Qingchuan still couldn't connect the rickety figure bowing to him in front of him with the wind-like figure of Shicai, so he had to return the favor.
Yan Qingchuan watched Zhong Qi leave. After a while, several young eunuchs came carrying wooden barrels, hot water and other things. Yan Qingchuan had been in the Imperial Palace without sleep for several days. Seeing this scene, he couldn't help but feel tired.
After coming up, when everything was ready, he took off his clothes and washed himself, soaking in the hot water after being exhausted from the past few days.
After washing, Yan Qingchuan knew that it was really the palace and not his own home, so he didn't dare to sleep soundly. He just sat cross-legged on the couch and practiced the Luck Wandering Dragon Palm Technique, closing his eyes and resting his mind.
At this moment, in the back hall of Yunshu Hall, Zhongqi was returning his orders to the emperor. The emperor was still holding the scroll and studying it carefully, while Zhongqi bowed his hands and answered.
"You tried Qingchuan boy just now. How was it?" the emperor said casually.
"Your Majesty, this child has a solid foundation and good bones. He is a martial arts training material. When the old slave asked, he also knew what to say and what not to say. If the old slave hadn't tricked the nine guards with his words,
He will not tell the old slave the details of the internal injuries. He has martial arts, and he is also a person with a delicate heart. The Holy One has found such a talent, and the old slave really wants to congratulate the Holy One." After saying this, he bowed to His Majesty the Emperor.
The emperor raised his eyes, glanced at the rickety old eunuch in front of him, chuckled and said: "Just now I didn't want Lao Yan's child to be restrained when he entered the palace. I wanted the child to rest early, so I asked you to come here."
On the way, ask the nine guards about their injuries, and try this child again. If you hurt this child, Lao Yan will not let you off lightly."
"When I return to the Holy One, the Holy One has told me that I will have a sense of proportion. However, Commander Yan entered the court too early and has many distracting thoughts in his mind. In the martial arts, it may be difficult to reach the realm of Yan Ruohai. However, as far as your Majesty is concerned,
I will get a good minister in the future." After Zhong Qi finished speaking, he saluted the emperor again.
The emperor smiled meaningfully, put down the book in his hand, stopped talking about Yan Qingchuan, and turned to ask Zhong Qi: "You have already asked about the injuries of the nine guards. Tell me who he is who dares to attack me, Qi Yun."
Kill my nine guards at the foot of the imperial city."
"What I said to the Holy Spirit is not the palm technique or the use of poison, but the intention of the sword." Zhong Qi said.
When the emperor heard this, the smile on his lips became even stronger. He played with the white jade hand in his hand and asked: "In your opinion, who in the four parts of China has such power?"
"Your Majesty, in my humble opinion, there are no less than a hundred masters in the mainland of China who can do this silently. But if you kill people with this sword intent, only the number of people with this hand can do it." Shicai's body was rickety and drooping
The eyelid old eunuch Zhongqi actually had a little fighting spirit flashing in his eyes at this moment.
"There are five people who can do what you want, tell me and let me hear it." The emperor still maintained a smile, as if nothing in the world could make Lord Qi Yun look embarrassed.
