At that time, Lu Miaozi passed down two apprentices, Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling. Among them, Kou Zhong inherited the mechanism technique. With the mechanism technique, he could break the restrictions of Yang Gong's treasure house, while Xu Ziling learned some things like architecture and gardens, so although Xu Ziling knew
Leaping Horse Bridge, but without the secret of mechanical skills, Yang Gong's treasure house cannot be opened.
When Xu Ziling arrived in Chang'an, he quickly approached Li Shimin and helped Li Shimin solve several problems. At the same time, he also proposed that Li Shimin surrender.
"Now Li Shimin has too much time to take care of himself, and his opinions are not accepted by Li Yuan at all."
Xu Ziling said.
Xu Lang nodded, asking Li Shimin to surrender was impossible.
"It seems that a battle between us and the Li clan is inevitable after all."
Xu Lang said after hearing this.
"So at this time, I ask the emperor that you leave Chang'an immediately."
Xu Ziling said.
Leaving Chang'an will naturally make all Li Clan's plans come to nothing. With the army pressing down and Chang'an being defeated, Xu Lang has a 100% chance of winning everything, so there is no need to stay here and take risks.
"Not yet."
Xu Lang pondered slightly and said: "Xiu Fang is still in Chang'an City, I must go to see her."
Xu Lang had to find a reason to stay first. After all, he came to Chang'an City mainly for fishing. As for Shang Xiufang, this was considered a private matter.
Xu Lang and Shang Xiufang only met once, and then Shang Xiufang met several times, but Xu Lang couldn't get away. Then Shang Xiufang was invited by Li Tang, came to Chang'an City, and stayed in Shanglin Garden, because Li Yuan
Monk Xiufang's mother, Mingyue, was a bit unclear, so Shang Xiufang had a distinguished status in Chang'an City. Li Tang did not force Shang Xiufang to do things like singing to Xu Lang.
There has always been a speculation about Shang Xiufang's identity, that she is Li Yuan's illegitimate daughter.
When Xu Ziling heard Xu Lang's words, he did not think that Xu Lang was irresponsible to the people of the world. Instead, he felt that Xu Lang valued love and righteousness, and his good impression of Xu Lang increased a lot.
"The emperor always has pity for the beautiful life."
The master's concubine Xuan said to Xu Lang with a smile, but she actually explained it to Xu Ziling, telling Xu Ziling that Xu Lang was not just lustful, but had a better heart of compassion.
"Ziling knows."
Xu Ziling said.
Shanglinyuan is located in the north of Chang'an City. It is the most lively place in Chang'an City at night. The world-famous Shanglinyuan is here, and there are also two gambling houses, Mingtang Nest and Liufu Gambling Hall, and many more.
Once in the evening, dignitaries would come here to have fun.
The person behind Mingtangwo is Yin Zuwen.
The man behind Luk Fook Casino is Li Yuanji.
The backing of these two casinos is very strong, so they are open in Chang'an City without any problems.
Xu Lang's figure flew to the outside of Shanglin Garden. He turned around lightly and found Shang Xiufang's residence. At the same time, he also saw a person. Shang Xiufang shouted "Emperor".
Li Yuan!
After Xu Lang saw Li Yuan, he looked around and saw Li Yuan's face was full of sorrow, but he was smiling in his heart. He sent a message outside the door and read: "The clouds are thinking of clothes and flowers, and the spring breeze is lifting the threshold and dew is thick. If we hadn't met at the top of the jade mountain, we would have met."
See you under the moon at Yaotai..."
The voice sounded from far away to near. Li Yuan's expression inside changed immediately. He stood up and started looking for a place to escape. When he read the last word, Xu Lang opened the door and saw Shang Xiufang sitting upright. As for Li Yuan,
He opened the window, jumped out and crawled on his knees.
Xu Lang didn't want to see Li Yuan and felt that there was nothing to talk about with this old pervert. Li Yuan, on the other hand, felt that it was difficult for him, the emperor, to meet Xu Lang because of Xu Lang's unclear attitude.
The king does not see the king.
But after Xu Lang came here, the king Li Yuan was like a bastard, motionless.
"We haven't seen each other for several months, but Xiu Fang is fine."
Xu Lang came and looked at Shang Xiufang and said with a smile.
Listening to Xu Lang's poems, Shang Xiufang smiled, as if she was about to bloom, and said: "The emperor has written many poems, and the poems written by Xiufang are better than those of Qingxuan, Shifei Xuan, etc."
Fairies are more in line with the times, so Xiufang thanked her."
"When I was in Luoyang City, I had a lot of things to do. Xiufang invited me several times, but I never went there. I always regretted it. This time I came to Chang'an, specifically for polo, but I put aside all the busy government affairs.
.”
Xu Lang looked at the tea table, saw two tea bowls on it, and asked deliberately: "Xiufang, are there any guests here?"
"left already."
Shang Xiufang frowned slightly, put away the tea bowl on the table, stood up, looked at Xu Lang, and said, "The Emperor is willing to move to another place with Xiufang."
Xu Lang nodded, saying it was okay.
Shang Xiufang stood up, walked to Xu Lang, pursed her lips and smiled, and said, "Did the Emperor come here specifically to see me?"
"In addition to Xiufang, who else in Shanglin Garden can let me come here?"
Xu Lang asked with a smile.
"Ji Qian is the one who performed for you today."
Shang Xiufang said with a smile.
Ji Qian is the oiran of Shanglin Garden and a top figure in Chang'an. In addition to being beautiful, she is also good at gambling and often goes to Mingtang's den to gamble.
Xu Lang shook his head, smiled, and said, "I am indeed here for Xiufang."
These words of affirmation made Shang Xiufang's heart tremble.
Originally, in Shang Xiufang's mind, Xu Lang was her candidate to "train one's heart in the world of mortals". Shang Xiufang wanted to have a relationship with Xu Lang and then end the relationship so that she could achieve success in music. However, the previous
Xu Lang didn't give her this chance.
At this time, in Shanglin Garden, Xu Lang, as the Zhou Emperor who swept the world and as the supreme master in the martial arts world, came here specifically to find her. This made Shang Xiufang's heart beat uncontrollably and her face turned red.
"The Emperor came to see Xiu Fang, but what's the matter?"
Shang Xiufang fiddled with her clothes and asked in a low voice.
"As soon as I come here, I'll see Xiufang and explain to Xiufang what happened in Luoyang, so that Xiufang won't misunderstand me."
Xu Lang said.
He doesn’t want me to misunderstand, he has me in his heart!
Shang Xiufang is very sensitive to people's thoughts. After hearing Xu Lang's words, she immediately thought in her heart.
"Second, Xiufang invited me many times before, but I didn't have time. This time I came to Chang'an City and put everything aside. Therefore, I want to compensate Xiufang and ask Xiufang to watch polo with her."
Xu Lang said.
Xu Lang doesn't care much about how polo is played, but it would be just right to use polo as an excuse to invite Shang Xiufang.
"Watching polo..."
Shang Xiufang stared at Xu Lang, smiled slightly, and said: "Although Xiufang is not interested, since the emperor invites you, Xiufang will definitely be there!"
Xu Lang looked at Shang Xiufang's face and said with a smile: "Thank you Xiufang for your willingness to go forward regardless of the past grudges."
Shang Xiufang smiled softly, looked at Xu Lang's face, and listened to Xu Lang using this method to ask her out, which made Shang Xiufang very happy.
Xu Lang is also laughing. This is not picking up girls, this is pity and pursuit of a better life.
