As soon as Li Xian's river engineering excerpt was published, the government and the public were shocked by it. For several days, there was a heated debate in the capital. Generally speaking, there were few supporters and many opponents, especially the wine shop mentioned in Li Xian's excerpt.
The idea of the chariot and horse cards aroused even more criticism. Under the covert promotion of thoughtful people, the criticism of Li Xian became more and more intense. I don’t know how many courtiers have secretly prepared to impeach this chapter. They are waiting for the next chapter.
One morning, a group of people rose up to revolt.
At this point, the general situation in the DPRK is extremely unfavorable for the two young brothers Li Xian and Li Xian. However, the two young brothers seem to be unaware of the upcoming disaster and ignore it.
——Li Xian excused himself to study and thanked guests behind closed doors. Not only did he not see any outsiders, he also didn’t even see his own confidants. As for Li Xian, he was as usual, paying no attention to other things except practicing martial arts. Who knows?
Everyone who came to visit was received, but they never mentioned the news about the river work. Anyone who came with the intention of seeking information returned disappointed. No one could get even a shred of accurate information from Li Xian.
Careless? Indifferent? Of course it's impossible. If nothing else, Li Xian's so-called study behind closed doors was actually just because he was afraid that outsiders would see his extremely anxious state, so he had to close the door and hide. As for Li Xian, although
They were talking and laughing as before, but in fact, the torment in their hearts was no less than that of Li Xian, who appeared on the surface - Hegong Zhezi was the first and most important step for the Li Xian brothers to step into the court.
If they can't hit the ground running, they will have to live a hard life for a long time. Until all the adverse effects dissipate, the two brothers will be unable to do anything, and this time will probably take two or three years.
Obviously, neither Li Xian nor Li Xian can afford to waste this time, and it is impossible not to get angry in a hurry, but Li Xian knows very well that this is not the time to act blindly, and the best choice is to just defend, even if
No matter how painful the waiting is, he can only endure it. Li Xian has reason to believe that things will turn around soon. The only thing he is not sure about is when the turnaround will come.
"Stop, Your Highness, I have said it many times before, use your spear to go like an arrow and return like a thread. If you use your spear like this, once you go into battle, you will never be able to withstand a single shot from your opponent. Keep an eye on it, I will do it again."
.”
Li Xian's heart was very anxious because of the Hegong Zhezi incident. Although everything seemed to be normal on the surface, it was actually not the case. He couldn't see anything when he was free. However, as soon as he arrived at the martial arts field, there was something weird under his hands.
At this point, a set of basic spear skills was coming to an end. The force was either too strong or too weak, and the connection between the moves was full of flaws. Li Boyao, who came to teach, frowned. At the end, it was really hard to see.
No longer able to go down, Li Boyao had no choice but to stop and gave Li Xian a demonstration in person. However, seeing Li Boyao's gun coming out like lightning, holding the gun like a dragon playing in the water, retreating and criticizing the gun to shake the mountains, it was really majestic.
Incomparable.
"Did you see everything clearly?" Li Boyao came down from the gun without blushing or panting. He put away the gun, looked at Li Xian expressionlessly, and asked lightly.
"Yes, Xiao Wang realized his mistake."
Although Li Xian had something on his mind, he was still deeply attracted by Li Boyao's marksmanship. He took a deep breath and answered respectfully.
"Okay, let's start again!"
After more than a year of contact, Li Boyao saw Li Xian's martial arts talent and perseverance. Although he still treated Li Xian openly, in fact, he really regarded Li Xian in his heart.
The disciple read it and found that, except for "The Art of War of Duke Wei", all his skills had been taught to him. Naturally, his requirements for Li Xian were extremely strict. Seeing that Li Xian had admitted his mistake, Li Boyao did not think too much of himself.
He gave a calm order.
"Yes, Xiao Wang obeys your order!"
Li Xian loudly agreed to the promise, then shook his head violently, driving away all the distracting thoughts in his mind. He carefully leveled the long gun he was holding vertically, and was ready to go. Before the gun was fired, the gun was ready.
It was so full of energy that once Yue Zhi Yuanting's momentum came out, he was already in the style of everyone. The only difference was the proficiency of his moves. Li Boyao secretly sighed when he saw it - the so-called spear that lasts a lifetime with a sword and a moon stick,
It is said that marksmanship is easy to learn but difficult to master, and most of the meaning of "fine" lies in the development of momentum. Only with the spirit of energy can one become a master of spear. An ordinary person may practice it for a lifetime.
Even Li Boyao's spears could not cultivate momentum. Even Li Boyao slowly realized the charm of momentum after practicing spears for several years. This was already considered a gift. However, Li Xian was better off. He had only practiced spears for half a year, and he had already mastered the momentum.
Although he was still immature, he had already developed his aura. Such monster-like talent made Li Boyao sigh and deeply regret it. He often thought that if Li Xian were not a descendant of the Tian family, he would actually be considered a genius.
The best descendant of Wei Gong's lineage.
The guns of this era were not the red-tasseled guns often seen in later movies and TV shows, but rather shorter than spears, about one foot and two long. The tip of the spear was not conical, but as slender as a blade.
It's just three points thicker than the blade. If you really want to use an analogy, it might be more like the eight-foot-long snake spear used by Zhang Fei in "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms". Even the one made of wooden handle is nearly thirty years old.
The weight of the gun and the slender body of the gun make it not easy to even simply control the center of gravity, let alone dance and perform moves. This is obviously not a problem for Li Xian, who has been working hard for more than a year.
What a big problem. As soon as the gun is fired, there is a roar of wind, a flash of gunfire, and murderous intent. Although the moves are still immature, the majesty is already beginning to show.
"good!"
"Your Highness is mighty!"
…
When Li Xian concentrated his energy, he naturally became much more skillful with his spear. Even though it was just basic spear skills, once he followed the routine, he was really like a man like a tiger and a spear like a dragon. Xiao Qian, Ling Zhong and other royal guards and generals were all
Since he was a knowledgeable person, they all applauded him. Even those serious people like Li Boyao nodded secretly.
"Your Highness, there is news."
Li Xian had just put away his gun and stood up. Before he could take a breath, Gao Miao had already come closer with a wet wipe. While passing the towel to Li Xian, he whispered a report.
Huh..., it's finally about to begin! Although Gao Miao didn't say clearly what the news was, but looking at his face, Li Xian knew what the news meant, and he couldn't help but let out a big sigh, and his heart, which had always been hanging, suddenly
He put it down, but he didn't rush to ask questions. He just smiled, picked up a towel and wiped his face carelessly. He walked up to Li Boyao with the gun in hand, bowed and said: "Xiao Wang has finished performing the spear show, please general."
Guidance.”
"Study "Overlord Spear" in three days."
Li Boyao looked at Li Xian with complicated eyes. After being silent for a while, he turned around and left the small school grounds without saying a word.
Overlord's Spear? Ha, cool! Li Xian has been practicing martial arts for more than 10 years, and he has collected a lot of information about martial arts. He knows that this "Overlord's Spear" is said to be inherited from a generation of heroes, Xiang Yu, the Overlord of Western Chu, although he doesn't know the rumors.
It is true or false, but it is an indisputable fact that the marksmanship is superb. It is the marksmanship used by Li Jing and Yang Wei in the battle formation. Li Xian had long wanted to learn it, but he just couldn't do it. At this time, he got Li Boyao's trust, even though he was thinking about it.
After Gao Miao brought the news, he couldn't help but scream, his excitement was palpable.
"Your Highness..."
Li Xian was extremely excited, but Gao Miao was worried. Seeing that Li Xian was so excited that he completely forgot about business, his thoughts became a little more serious. It happened that there were many people here and it was not a good place to talk about secrets.
In desperation, he had no choice but to call out in a low voice to give Li Xian a heads up.
"Um."
Gao Miao was anxious, but Li Xian was not. He said something calmly, casually threw the spear in Ling Zhong's hand, and walked into the palace easily. Gao Miao saw this and hurriedly followed.
Behind Li Xian, he walked silently all the way to the study.
"Your Highness, the news from the palace is that Liu Yizhi, Zhou Simao and more than a dozen ministers have jointly signed this chapter, recommending Your Highness to take charge of the overall situation of river engineering. This..." As soon as he entered the study, Gao Miao couldn't hold it in anymore.
, and hurriedly came to Li Xian's side to report the report full of worry.
Huh? Good guy, you really did this with me, it’s awesome! Although Li Xian had expected this situation, his heart sank when he heard this, but he didn’t care too much, it was just one stone.
It's just a plan of three birds, and there's nothing mysterious about it - the person standing behind Liu, Zhou and others is Empress Wu. This so-called joint capital guarantee is naturally the result of Empress Wu's instruction. There are three strange things in it. First,
It shows that Empress Wu agrees with the issue of river management. Secondly, throwing such a fat piece of river management in front of the three princes and letting the three brothers start fighting over it will make the already chaotic court situation even more chaotic.
The third step is to take the opportunity to drive a wedge between Li Xian and Li Xian. It is obvious that the alliance between the two kings has attracted great attention from Empress Wu, and she will quickly destroy it.
Empress Wu's move was indeed extremely beautiful, but unfortunately it had no effect on Li Xian. The reason is very simple. If Li Xian's purpose this time was to work on the river, Empress Wu's move would definitely work wonders, and the resulting
The chaos was definitely not small. The problem was that Li Xian had no intention of taking the river engineering issue into his own arms. In fact, the river engineering was just a plank road built openly. The imperial examination matter was the Chencang Trail that Li Xian wanted.
In this sense, Empress Wu's so-called coup is just a bad move. Not only will it not be able to defeat Li Xian, but it will become a stepping stone for Li Xian to achieve his predetermined plan. Of course, there are still questions about whether he can successfully achieve his predetermined goal.
There are many variables, and it is not yet the time to rejoice, everything is still undecided.
"Your Highness, look at this..."
Although Gao Miao did not have Li Xian's ability to grasp the essence through phenomena, he was vaguely aware that Liu, Zhou and others' memorials had bad intentions. Seeing that Li Xian had not responded for a long time, he couldn't help but become anxious.
He stood up and called out cautiously.
"It's okay. We'll talk about it after I take a shower and change clothes."
In a short period of time, Li Xian had sorted out all the clues and already had a plan in his mind. He was not too worried. However, the matter was important and Li Xian would not explain it to Gao Miao, so he laughed.
, regardless of Gao Miao's reaction, he strode towards the bathroom...
