The brain is like a deep pool. When the signal to wake up is transmitted into it, ripples appear on the surface and then reach the bottom of the pool. The whole person wakes up completely in an instant.
Immediately, the things that happened yesterday and the things that I have been worrying about came to my mind one by one.
What to do today, what is the biggest problem...
After a night's rest, the brain is immediately filled to the brim and there is no space left.
But at least there was still a gap in his mind for his old wife... Liu Qing touched his side, feeling cold.
The old wife's deliberately lowered voice came from outside the door.
"Yesterday, my husband said that he had eaten too much. Let's make breakfast lighter and not too much. If there is too much, he will definitely eat it all. This is the kind of person he is. He can't waste any food. Go quickly."
"yes."
The footsteps faded away, and then the door opened.
"Husband."
"Um!"
Liu Qing got up.
After washing, he took out the horizontal knife and stood in the courtyard.
As if he was meditating on his moves.
The morning breeze blew through his clothes and long hair, making him look like a master.
"Eh!"
Liu Qing let out a light sigh, then shouted: "Ha!"
The horizontal sword was unsheathed, and then the sword's light flashed.
The old wife and daughter-in-law stood in the corridor and watched.
"Good knife skills!" my daughter-in-law praised.
The old wife nodded, "That's right."
Liu Qing slashed away with his sword, then stopped, maintaining the posture of drawing the sword, and slowly touched his lower back with his backhand.
"Hey...hey...I can't do it anymore, my waist, my waist, oh!"
The old wife hurried over and asked, "What's wrong with your waist?"
"Flash! Don't move!"
…
The respected Lord Ambassador put his hands on his hips and slowly moved to the front yard.
"I've seen the envoy."
"The emperor put his hands on his hips and looked even more majestic."
"Yes! With your hands on your hips, there is some explanation, and being high-spirited is the most important."
"No, it's the same thing when those women quarrel. It can be seen that akimbo also means contempt."
"Do you want to say that the envoy is a woman?"
"I was wrong."
"Have a nice drink at the Yamen."
Liu Qing entered the check-in room, held his waist with one hand, and sat down with difficulty. He felt that his waist was terribly sore.
"Your Majesty."
The most loyal lieutenant arrived, and his first reaction when he saw this was: Shijun showed off his power last night, so much so that he came to Zhoushe in the morning to show off his waist?
But once he saw the bitter look on Shijun's face, Lu Qiang knew that he was wrong.
"My waist is flashing." Liu Qing said with emotion: "I'm getting old."
Yang Xuan is here.
"Your Majesty, is this... inappropriate for akimbo muscles?"
Yang Xuan thought of the akimbo muscle he saw in the scroll, which was said to be very powerful.
"I'm old. I slipped up to my waist while practicing swordsmanship this morning." Liu Qing laughed at himself.
For an old man who still longs to make great achievements, practicing sword practice to the waist means that he will never be able to participate in the battle again.
"Your Majesty, actually this matter is quite simple."
"Simple?"
"That's right."
Yang Xuan stood up and said, "Let alone the envoy, even a low-ranking officer would duck to the waist. It doesn't matter if he ducks to the waist. We have to find the problem. The lower-ranking official has thought about it countless times and finally came to a conclusion."
Liu Qing and Lu Qiang looked at him.
"Before you practice sword practice, you must move your body!"
"Is it that simple?" Liu Qing and Lu Qiang felt that they had been deceived.
"certainly."
Yang Xuan started to demonstrate.
"Stretch first, then move, cross-jump in place, raise your legs..."
A clerk came to look for Yang Xuan and was stopped outside the duty room.
"Don't go in."
The clerk was puzzled, "Why? Did the envoy take action again?"
The roar of the commander, the stick of the commander...these two weapons shocked Chenzhou and made the officials frightened, but the people loved it.
The clerk outside the door looked strange, as if he was trying not to laugh.
The clerk finally couldn't help it and took a look.
Yang Xuan stood in front, jumping with his feet crossed.
Open and close your hands at your side.
"One two three four, two two three four, three two three four, four two three four..."
Behind him, Lu Qiang followed.
Master Zhijun, who was a little clumsy behind, was also practicing.
"How many times have I said it? Xiao Xuanzi, professionalism, professionalism. You should say... one da da, two da da."
At the end of the warm-up, Lu Qiang was panting a little, touched his forehead, and said in a glum tone: "You're even sweating just from jumping around?"
Lord Shijun touched his lower back and said, "It's better."
He stretched out his hand and said, "Here comes the knife."
"Don't!" The old man wanted to die!
Yang Xuan advised: "It takes at least half a month to dodge your waist. Now practicing swordplay will make it worse."
"Half a month!" Liu Qing was obviously a little dissatisfied.
"There are also fast ones."
"What method?"
"Acupuncture." Yang Xuan opened his hands a long way apart and inserted such a long silver needle into it.
"Who would?" The old man was indeed brave and not afraid of death.
"The steward of my backyard." Yang Xuan added, "Female."
"Then I'd better take care of you for half a month."
There is still a long way to go to improve the status of women... Yang Xuan sighed in his heart, "Then who is doing this?"
The clerk came in and said, "I've seen the envoy, I've seen..."
Barabara.
Finally, let’s get down to business, “Our scouts say that the Kibo Division is gathering an army.”
"Which direction?" Liu Qing asked.
The clerk was a little confused, "The scout was seriously injured because of the news. He said... he was going to the west."
A picture instantly appeared in Liu Qing's mind.
"To the west...to attack the Vashe tribe? Impossible."
That imperial uncle would beat Wynn into a pig's head without hesitation.
"It's never wrong to be on guard." Lu Qiang gave advice.
"Be on guard."
Chenzhou suddenly lost many people.
Fortunately, this year's harvest has ended, otherwise many farmers would be reluctant to leave and live and die with their own food.
"It shouldn't be!"
Yang Xuan stood on the top of the city and looked north, his brows furrowed tightly.
King Wei was at his side, with his hands on the top of the city, "The scouts should be bolder, cross the so-called thirty-mile limit, and directly enter the Jibo Department to investigate."
"Isn't it appropriate?" Seeing Yang Xuan shaking his head, King Wei was a little dissatisfied, but suppressed it, "A woman's kindness is a good thing in many cases, but for a young man who is determined to be a famous general, this is a negative thing.
thing."
Li Han quarreled, "Zitai dared to charge into the battle, how can you show the kindness of a woman? I think you are so eager to achieve success that you are dizzy. At this moment, I am glad that you were not allowed to lead the army, otherwise many Tang Dynasty warriors would have died in your hands.
In haste.”
Big palms were waving around him.
But Li Han was already prepared, and his figure flashed...and flashed again.
But the giant palm is like a gangrene attached to the bone.
Snap!
"grass!"
Li Han covered his shoulders and kicked up, but King Wei easily picked him up and flew him backwards.
Two mallets!
When Yang Xuan saw the scouts coming back, he went down to the top of the city.
He dropped a sentence, "If Huai'en wanted to attack Chenzhou, he wouldn't be so procrastinating. I thought it might be civil strife."
King Wei and Li Han stood together again.
Li Han whispered: "In the past, you rarely gave advice on such matters, and you were more accustomed to giving orders from a high position. Today, you have lowered your posture to talk to Zitai. What do you want to do? Win Zitai for your use?"
King Wei's side face looked like a rock, motionless.
Silence is often the default.
In the distance, the scout slowed down his horse, and the smoke slowly spread and faded behind him.
Li Han glanced at King Wei and warned: "Zitai is smart. The fact that he didn't answer you is a hint. He doesn't want to get involved in the royal family's fight."
King Wei put his hand on the city head with slight force, and said coldly: "Aye will leave sooner or later. The prince has no hope, and the most promising one is the King of Yue. That seemingly weak boy, do you think he is a charitable person?"
?”
Li Han shook his head, "No."
King Wei's voice was faint, "The King of Yue was seven years old that year. Just because he looked weak, the leader of the servants around him stole his things. When he was discovered, he just warned him."
Such a prince can be said to be extremely weak.
"What happened next?"
"Later, something suddenly disappeared from the Queen's place. No one could find it. The King of Yue said that he had seen it somewhere. After thinking about it carefully, it was the room of the chief chamberlain."
The hairs on Li Han's back stood on end, "Were you executed?"
"Um."
The scouts are approaching.
King Wei turned around and said, "He begged for mercy for the chief servant and cried for him."
Li Han secretly cursed, "It's too dark for a dog to say it!"
"Zitai is on good terms with you and me. In his eyes, we are the same. Don't think you can separate yourself. In the eyes of such people, one mistake can never be undone in a lifetime. If you don't want to die, you have to be with me."
Let’s move forward together.”
"So you win over Zitai. The higher Zitai's success will be in the future, the greater your power will be."
"..."
"Why not pull a few more?"
King Wei raised his head with contempt in his eyes.
"Can't pull it."
Li Han: "..."
The scouts entered the city and dismounted.
"Which side?" Yang Xuan asked, feeling vaguely that this matter might have nothing to do with Chen Zhou.
The scout said happily: "It's civil strife."
Later, in Zhoulinei.
King Wei and Li Han also came.
"I have met the king."
Liu Qing didn't have much favorable impressions of the prince. If not for the incomparable bravery shown by King Wei in the last battle in Northern Xinjiang, Yang Xuan dared to bet that the old man would have rejected King Wei.
"Let's talk." Yang Xuan sat down, waved happily, and waited for Zhen Siwen to step forward and said: "Bring out the tea I brought from Chang'an last time, and give each of you a cup."
Lu Qiang smiled and said: "That tea is indeed good, but you used to pick and choose it. Today you are so generous, is this good news?"
Yang Xuan pointed at the scouts.
"Your Majesty, we have found out the news. Huaien learned that there were wealthy merchants trading with Chenzhou, so he gathered an army to attack and destroy them. But those wealthy merchants got the news and immediately gathered together. It is said that there are many people in total."
Liu Qing breathed a sigh of relief.
"No fight?" Lu Qiang was a little disappointed.
The scout shook his head, "Just when Wynn wanted to attack, the dignitaries under his command stopped him one after another, saying that fighting would hurt both sides, and there are also merchants in the Jibo Department."
After finishing speaking, the scout noticed that Shijun's face was serious.
Not happy?
Yang Xuan waved his hand, "Mark him the merit."
The scouts bowed happily and left.
After the scout left, the lobby was very quiet.
King Wei picked up the water cup and took a sip of tea. The tea from Chang'an was good, but his mind was filled with shock at the moment.
Liu Qing suddenly sighed and looked at Yang Xuan with more relief and joy in his eyes, just like the joy of an elder when he sees his younger generation growing up.
But there is still a lot of surprise left.
"Zitai."
The old man's tone was so kind that Yang Xuan felt a little uncomfortable, "I'm here."
Don't let the little kid get too proud, otherwise he will be proud... Liu Qing said lightly: "Where did you learn that capital destroys the country you talked about?"
The knowledge of the Tang Dynasty was inherited and even divided into sects.
The highest level is the knowledge passed down from family to family, which is kept secret. The second is the royal family. The third is the families of the powerful and the families with heirloom knowledge...and finally the schools at all levels.
Each faction has its own unique view of the world, which is not the same.
Business is a cheap industry, and no one has ever studied it. Therefore, when Yang Xuan Capital said that he could destroy a country, everyone found it funny.
No one can laugh now.
But a confusion came to mind.
Which sect's inheritance is this?
This is exactly what King Wei and Li Han want to know.
Yang Xuan came from the countryside of Yuanzhou and had read books, but only read books.
When he arrived in Chang'an, he entered the Imperial College. The independence of the Imperial College cut off the outside world's understanding of him.
Is it the inheritance of the Imperial College?
Everyone thinks so.
What should I say? The Imperial College taught me this knowledge from a big man who often came into my room in the middle of the night. The former is hard to guarantee that someone will go to the Imperial College to verify it, and the latter is too elusive.
What about the gods?
The Yang family of Yingchuan told the public that their ancestor once had a dream in which a god taught him books. When he woke up, all the knowledge was firmly remembered in his mind, as if his brain had become a hard drive.
But talking about gods can easily arouse attention... If his wings were full, Yang Xuan wouldn't mind using gods to add mystery and majesty to his great cause of revolt.
But at the moment, he is just a little shrimp, and at a higher level, he is just a rising star in Northern Xinjiang.
It can be said that the founder of the Yingchuan Yang family dreamed of meeting a god to grant him a book. This is because the Yingchuan Yang family was very majestic in the Chen Kingdom at that time.
Damn it! You can’t!
Yang Xuan felt a little regretful.
He looked gloomy, "When I was a child, my life was quite difficult."
Everyone was silent.
Everyone's experience is different, but don't think that others can sympathize with you. Sister-in-law Xianglin's incessant chattering will only make people sympathize on the surface, but deep down they keep roaring: I am not a garbage dump, let this complaining guy hurry up
Get lost!
So Yang Xuan just said one sentence, and then changed the subject, "I know that if you want to change your situation, the best way is to change places. I asked Muramasa, and Muramasa said that if you want to go to Chang'an, unless you go
Participate in the imperial examination."
He mocked himself and said: "At that time, I thought I could go to Chang'an by studying, so I tried every means to study."
"When I was reading, I always integrated my own situation, what I saw and heard with the principles in the book. Gradually, I saw the world differently."
"I don't know whether what I understand is good or bad."
Yang Xuan said with some embarrassment: "I was stupid when I first arrived in Chang'an, but gradually the whole world changed in my eyes."
"I like to read history. Using copper as a mirror, I can straighten my clothes. Using human beings as a mirror, I can know gains and losses."
Everyone was shocked and moved!
These words are shocking.
Are you surprised? Yang Xuan looked at everyone and spoke.
"I have seen a lot of capital in history books... What I have seen about businessmen is that it cannot be suppressed and must be controlled."
King Wei hid the surprise in his eyes and lowered his head.
Others found it painful to read, but Yang Xuan gained astonishing benefits from reading.
After a long time, Liu Qing asked: "You have experienced hardships, do you regret it now?"
