Chapter 148 The Call of Luoyang
In autumn, the hot weather is finally cool, especially in the early morning, and there is even a slight chill. However, the jade rock is hot enough. Not only is the forehead full of fine sweat beads, but there is a faint heat all over the body, which makes the whole body around. The air rippled with faint water-like ripples. Although the hand holding the sword was as stable as before, the sudden blue veins clearly showed the nervous mood of Yujiko.
Pressure, huge pressure, even if Yujizi's martial arts skills are superb, but under huge pressure, he is forced to sweat all over his body like ordinary people. Of course, under the traction of the air machine, his opponent, a tall and handsome young man, is also not good, sweating through single clothes, not to mention the heat on his head. It was even steaming like fog, but the hand holding the knife was abnormally stable, and there was no shaking even a trace.
The confrontation is repeated, the fierce air is entangled, and there is a faint sound of wind and thunder roaring. It can be said that it is extremely shocking, but the two sides of the confrontation are not moved. No one has the intention to take the lead. They just stared at each other silently. Each other's momentum is constantly improving in this confrontation, and it is getting more and more and more. Lie.
A gust of breeze blew, and a fallen leaf rolled up from nowhere. It floated and floated, circling into the space of confrontation between the two sides. In just a moment, it was stirredded by the violent air machine, and the fragile balance was broken in an instant. Almost at the same time, the two sides of the confrontation roared and launched an attack at the same time.
"Look at the sword!"
Yujizi was fierce by nature. When he saw the fighter appear, he was rude and roared. With a long sword in his hand, he attacked and killed it like lightning. The sword spirit was as murderous as the rainbow, and the momentum was fierce.
"Cut!"
Yujizi's movements are not fast. As soon as the sword moves, it is already a thunderous force. However, he is fast, and his opponent is faster. However, under a roar, a violent knife light has split the space like the Milky Way upside down. With only a flash, it has rushed to Yujizi.
"Hang, Haung..."
Yujizi obviously didn't expect the opponent's coming so fast. He was so surprised that he didn't have time to attack the other party again. With a swing of the long sword, he quickly turned from attack to defense, and a move "long river sunset" tightly guarded around his body. In a few breaths, the swords and shadows quickly collided together, bursting out bursting loudly and fire. The stars splashed and the shadows flew.
"Good boy, come again!"
Under a hard confrontation, Yujizi's martial arts skills were excellent, and he was caught off guard. He was shocked and staggered back five steps. Then he barely stabilized his body. He couldn't help but be furious and roared. He raised his sword and was about to jump up again. Unexpectedly, his opponent did not give him this opportunity at all. He laughed and stopped the knife. Then he retreated and made a grimace, and his empty left finger touched Yujiko's left shoulder.
"He's unlucky!" Yujizi followed the other party's gesture and looked at his shoulder. He immediately saw that the Taoist robe on his shoulder had been broken. His face suddenly became ugly. After cursing, he glared at his opponent and said, "This time, I'm careless for a moment. Come on, come again."
"Brother, one called carelessness, two times carelessness, and three times without paying attention. What's the time?"
The handsome young man laughed, waved his hand proudly, and made fun of Yujizi.
"Church apprentice dead master, unlucky, unlucky! You won!"
Yujizi's face was red and purple, and he stared at the other party angrily. Unfortunately, it was the other party's more complacent smile. In desperation, she had to admit defeat in shame.
"Hahaha..."
It goes without saying that this tall and handsome young man is Li Xian, the king of Zhou. For four years, it has been more than four years since he followed Yujizi to practice internal skills. Now it has been more than four years. Li Xian, who is only 16 years old, with his extraordinary talent and hard-working tenacity, has finally achieved martial arts. He is not only done it immediately, but also taught by Lian Yujizi as a substitute teacher. The nine-layer "Star Gong" has also been cultivated to the peak of the eighth level, and may break into the realm of great success at any time. Compared with Yujizi, it is slightly stronger. After being flattened by Yujizi in the name of "teaching" for four years, Li Xian finally turned over. After Yujizi admitted defeat, Li Xian couldn't help laughing proudly. He got up and laughed so much that Yujizi was very sad. At the end, he had no choice but to laugh with himself.
"Your Highness, the envoy has arrived outside the gate. Please accept the order."
Just as the two brothers laughed, Gao Miao hurried in from the garden gate, grabbed Li Xian, and gasped for the report.
"Oh?"
As soon as he heard the imperial edict arrived, Li Qianpi couldn't help jumping and whispering, but there was no side expression. He just nodded to Yujizi, which was regarded as a greeting. Then he turned around and strode to the backyard. Although his footsteps were as calm as before, his heart was full of ups and downs - three years, it was not Long, losing the long river of history is not even a moment, but for Li Xian, these three years are three years of solid foundation. Taking advantage of Wuhou's absence from the capital, Li Xian fiercely stuffed people into the court. Although most of them are not very high-level people, there are not many confidants who can have the qualification to go to the court. Compared with the two brothers. In the long future, the overall power seems to be at a disadvantage, but in fact, Li Xian's connections have been spread all over the government departments. In time, it is not difficult to turn his hands into the clouds and turn his hands into rain. It can be said that Li Xian has lived a carefree and fulfilling life in the past three years, but this quiet life is obviously coming to an end - although Li Xian does not know the imperial edict. What exactly is written, but there is a vague foreboding in my heart.
"The Holy Son of Heaven has an edict saying: Li Xianshao, the king of Zhou, is wise, and the long is said to be able. Now that he is an adult, it is suitable for marriage... He will go to Luoyang to meet him." Seeing that the incense case was ready, the King of Zhou's Mansion knelt down all over the ground. Sun Quanfu, the eunuch of the new two halls, coughed his voice, slowly opened the imperial edict in his hand, and dragged it up according to the book.
What? Marriage? I'll go! As soon as Li Xian heard that this imperial edict was such a reason, he couldn't help but be stunned. A flower-like smiling face slowly emerged from the bottom of his heart, and it was already vivid in the haze - Zhao Qiong, the second daughter of Zhao Mingquan, the young Yin of Luoyang Mansion, that is, the married wife of Li Xian's previous life, had been married for only a few years, and she was cruelly The old thief gave death, the charge? There is no need to!
"Your Highness, Your Highness."
Sun Quanfu announced his will, but he didn't see Li Xian say thank you for a long time, so he had to shout twice in a low voice.
"Thank you for your kindness, long live my emperor, long live, long live!"
Being mentioned by Sun Quanfu, Li Xian's body was shocked. He woke up from his memory and thanked him respectfully. He stretched out his hands to receive the imperial edict, stood up, and then handed the imperial edict to Gao Mi, who was waiting beside him. His hand shook his hand, and a pre-prepared hundred-prepared flying banknote in his sleeves had slipped off his palm.
"Eunuch Sun has worked hard. A wine sashimi has been prepared in Xiao Wang's mansion, and I would like to ask my father-in-law to appreciate it." Li Xian said hello with a smile, shaking his fingers and bounced the folded money into Sun Quanfu's sleeve without a trace.
"Your Highness, you're welcome. I thank you for your beauty, but your majesty and the Empress are still waiting for a reply. I dare not delay more. Please forgive me." Sun Quanfu is the confidant of Empress Wu. He knows that the master in front of him has always been out of touch with Queen Wu. How can he be too intimate with Li Xian, but he does not dare to offend Li Xian, a prince with a fierce name. The flying money is laughed. As for the invitation to the banquet, it is naturally appreciated.
"Well, Mr. Sun is busy with his business, and Xiao Wang doesn't bother much. However, well, it's just that Xiao Wang still has a question and asks Mr. Sun for advice." Li Xian's invitation to the banquet was just polite. Seeing that Sun Quanfu was unwilling and would not force himself to stay, he arched his hand and said.
"I dare not, I dare not, Your Highness, but if you have a question, the old slave dare not answer." Although Sun Quanfu wanted to leave quickly, Li Xian had a question to ask, and he did not dare not answer. He bowed politely and agreed, but his face was obviously not too natural.
"Ha ha, it's my father-in-law. Xiao Wang just wants to know in advance which candidate his father and mother have ordered for Xiao Wang. Please give him a letter." Li Xian smiled twice and asked with a slight embarrassment.
"This..."
Since ancient times, the prince's marriage has been decided by the emperor, and it has never allowed the princes to ask about this matter. Obviously, Li Xian's question is a little too question, but in front of Li Xian, Sun Quanfu did not dare to point out this point out. Obviously, he hesitated for a moment. When he wanted to say that he didn't know, he saw Li Xian's god as sharp. He swept over like a knife. Sun Quanfu's heart "clucked" with a neutral horse. The words he excused had reached his mouth, but he didn't dare to say it. He twisted it twice, and then replied in a low voice with a bitter face, "Before I came, I heard that there were three candidates. It seemed that the second daughter of the Wang Cheng family, the eldest daughter of Zhan Shisi Zhilu Quan, and then Even the eldest granddaughter of Chen Xi, the military equipment supervisor, as for who was decided, I was in a hurry when I left, but I didn't know.
I've ordered some things for me. They are all the daughters of small bureaucrats. Damn old thief women, it's not your turn to decide my marriage! As soon as Li Xian heard that there was no Zhao Qiong, his heart immediately seemed to have knocked over the five-flavor bottle. He cursed secretly, but his face was faint and there was no expression. He nodded casually and knew it.
"Your Highness, stay, goodbye to the old slave."
Sun Quanfu didn't want to stay any longer for a moment. At this time, Li Xian did not mean to ask any more questions. He hurriedly bowed down and hurriedly left.
Qiong'er, wait, I'm going to Luoyang. Li Xian did not say anything more to retain Sun Quanfu. He just stood at the door of the house in a frenze, but his mind had already flown to Luoyang City...
