In the following days, Qin Mubai felt like a piece of stubborn iron. He was first thrown into a large furnace and burned red, and then was forged like crazy by two barbaric old blacksmiths, Qin Shubao and Cheng Zhijie.
Thousands of responses.
Martial arts training in the school field, instruction in marksmanship... It sounds nice, but in reality it means getting beaten!
What he received was a beating from two of the top warriors in the Tang Dynasty!
Every bone seemed to be broken, and there was no place on his body that was not injured. Bruises and swollen faces were commonplace, which often gave Qin Mubai the illusion that he had gained weight.
However, after thousands of times of tempering, the stubborn iron finally felt a little like "made into steel". Under the crazy training of Qin and Cheng, who were trying to encourage others, Qin Mubai's spear skills, riding and shooting, etc.
His horse-like Kung Fu has improved by leaps and bounds. Now, he can even use Qin Shubao's new "Tai Chi Spear Technique" to fight Cheng Zhijie on horseback for more than ten or twenty rounds without losing, and he will not be knocked off the horse so easily.
As for mounted archery, archery was originally Qin Mubai's specialty. After he became proficient in equestrian skills, his improvement in this skill was even faster. In the end, both Qin Shubao and Cheng Zhijie had to admit - "This boy's current archery skills are not good enough."
To say that he is the best in the world, at least he has reached the top and is incomparable to others. We two old guys are no better than him."
The imperial court held a celebration banquet for the "pacification of Tuyuhun" as scheduled, and Qin Shubao was invited to attend. Qin Mubai was not qualified to go to such a high-level place to ask for a share, but I heard that the emperor used the "Qin Xian Liquor" brewed and donated by himself at the banquet.
"Coming to entertain guests, it caused a great sensation.
Qin Shubao came back from the banquet and was in a very good mood, as if he had suddenly become more than ten years younger and had recovered from his illness. It turned out that the emperor was not only as before, but also displayed the "Qin Gun" he used at the banquet.
, he also specially praised Sanlang of the Qin family in public - "Versatile, filial and benevolent; he will lead the family like a tiger and never disgrace the family."
Obviously, the emperor intended to take the initiative to resolve the knot in Qin Shubao's heart and resolve some of the unwarranted conflicts that had been caused by Wu Meiniang.
"Sanlang, the emperor's mind is beyond our imagination! Instead of holding any grudge against you, he praised you in public." Qin Shubao said to Qin Mubai comfortably, "He praised your piano skills, wine making, etc.
It’s minor. But he specifically mentioned that you are a ‘tiger son of a general’. Is this a hint that you should stop pursuing side interests such as music and drinking, and instead concentrate on the military and prepare for the emperor’s selection of troops in the near future?”
"It's possible." Qin Mubai replied, "But the emperor's heart is unpredictable. We don't know whether the emperor is really relieved or whether he is trying to cover up the situation and frighten the tiger. In short, the child will act carefully. If the emperor is like this
The implication is that it also reflects that in his heart, he is indeed a little unhappy about Wu Meiniang."
"Oh, how do you say that?" Qin Shubao asked in surprise.
"If the emperor is really suggesting that I participate in the military selection, doesn't it mean that he wants me to leave Li Ke?" Qin Mubai said, "That means that he is worried about what Li Ke and I did this time.
I'm somewhat dissatisfied with this matter, and I don't want me to be with him again in the future. What do you think, father?"
"Well... that makes sense." Qin Shubao nodded suddenly, stroking his long beard and said, "You are still careful. Since the emperor has hinted like this, you have more reasons to leave Prince Wu's Mansion and find a job with the emperor.
.Haosheng, prepare to practice your martial arts hard. If nothing else happens, the emperor will take care of this matter after the New Year and around the Lantern Festival. There are still more than twenty days, so you must hurry up."
"Yes, father." Qin Mubai agreed, but felt a little nervous: According to the calculations of the great master Yuan Tiangang, my father will die on the seventeenth day of the first lunar month, so there are only more than twenty days left!
But now I see him, he is full of energy and his body is getting better. What will happen then? I would rather believe that this mysterious and unpredictable calculation is deceptive...
The Chinese New Year is only a few days away. The emperor of the peaceful and prosperous age
