The Prince's Mansion is located in the north of the city, covering an area of nearly dozens of hectares. It is full of pavilions, waterside pavilions, and many houses.
The royal roads in the palace were covered with thick red carpets; the door gods and couplets were given a new look; red lanterns were hung high at the gates of the palaces; Taimen, Hedian, Qinggong and Ninggong also hung colored silk with the word "happy".
From the outer hall to the front of Anmen, there are Dharma books on display: colorful flags, fans, scattered streamers, glittering knives, axes, axes, and halberds, hundreds and thousands of them, standing in a straight formation, dazzling people.
; Large chariots, jade chariots, large chariots, and small chariots were discharged straight out of the middle door, and the elephants and royal horses driving the chariots stood at the side;
Outside the central gate, standing in two rows on the left and right, were four huge guiding elephants, four precious elephants carrying gold and jade vases inlaid with beads. Their huge bodies and ferocious appearance were enough to frighten anyone who entered the palace for the first time.
Chinese music is located on the east and west sides of the front corridor of the Hall of Supreme Harmony, and large music is located on the inner corridor of the Gate of Supreme Harmony, echoing the cymbals and drums displayed to the south of the treasure elephant at the Meridian Gate.
At this time, the princess went out, and three large bands played cheerful music.
The princess sat high on the throne, looking even more solemn and noble because she wore a full dress: on the top of the triple gemstone crown, precious east beads surrounded a huge ruby, and nine golden phoenix rings inlaid with pearls were gathered around the crown.
The golden phoenixes each hold five strings of pearls hanging in their mouths. The ones in front hang down to the forehead, and the ones behind the sides hang down to the shoulders below the ears. The dark purple court gown with horse hoof sleeves is covered with an azure embroidered dragon court gown and shawl, with
The pattern of mountains, sea, sun, moon, dragon and phoenix shows supreme dignity.
The bell on the middle door rang. A group of pipes and flutes played melodiously, and a welcoming band played elegant music. Under the guidance of the king's staff, they slowly came out of the back door.
When Liu Juan and the big man saw it, they couldn't help but stand aside. When the princess passed by, Liu Juan let out a long sigh of relief.
The next day, he took off his eagle uniform and put on the clothes of a guard. He didn't bring the Mingyue Scimitar. After all, they were considered senior guards now and didn't need to carry swords. However, Liu Juan's small sword was still on his trouser leg.
, this has become a habit of his, even after coming to this proud country, the habit has not changed.
The second prince is a famous idle prince, and Jiang Lang finally realized what idleness means this time.
It's not too late for the prince to get up. He goes up to three poles every day. According to Liu Juan's estimation, based on the current time, it is probably past ten o'clock. After getting up, he does a round of boxing. This boxing is a relatively popular boxing method. In addition to strengthening the body,
It has no effect outside the body, at least what Liu Juan thinks.
After this round of punches, it will probably be almost noon. Let’s take a rest, drink tea, and prepare for lunch. However, the prince does not need Liu Juan and the others to watch him eat lunch. After all, I watch others eat, and others sit.
It feels very uncomfortable to stand with me. Liu Juan and Dahan's duty is only to accompany the prince when he goes out. The morning is relatively free for the two of them. As for the prince, he is also relatively relaxed towards the two of them. In addition to this, the palace courtyard
There are no specific restrictions except that the backyard is not allowed to go, because the backyard is where the female family members live.
After having lunch in the afternoon and taking a rest for a while, the prince will go for a stroll and go shopping. In the evening, he will go to some restaurant, some flower house, etc. Liu Juan, who is also considered a country bumpkin, also experienced what ancient times are.
The colorful world.
This morning, after the prince got up, he punched in the yard, then suddenly stopped and sighed involuntarily.
Ge Qing, a martial artist who had been with the prince for more than twenty years, saw him sighing and couldn't help but wonder: "Your Majesty, I don't know why you are sighing?"
The prince moved his hands and said: "My health has become worse and worse in recent years. I am out of breath after a few punches."
Liu Juan, who was standing next to him, couldn't help but smile in his heart and said to himself: The punch you gave was mainly strong. Although you are only over forty, your physical strength can no longer support such a strong exercise. It would be strange if you don't breathe.
Liu Juan, who knew the reason well, did not speak, but stood quietly beside him. He was just a small guard now, and it was not his turn to talk to the prince.
But the prince raised his head and glanced at him, and then said: "Er Yi, what boxing technique did you use that day?"
Liu Juan was stunned, looked at the prince, and then clasped his fists and said: "Your Majesty, I use water and fire fist!" When Tai Chi came out, and whether it was Zhang Sanfeng who founded it, Liu Juan didn't know in his heart, if he said he used Tai Chi
, if there is, the one you use is obviously different, so you might as well lie and change its name.
The Second Prince nodded and said, "Come on, will you use your water-fire fist to challenge me?"
Liu Juan's expression changed, and he immediately knelt down on one knee and said, "I don't dare!"
The guard next to him looked at Liu Juan strangely. He only knew that the two of them were newcomers, but he didn't know what their abilities were.
The prince looked a little unhappy and said: "What? Do you look down on me?"
"My subordinates dare not!"
Liu Juan immediately said with sincerity and fear, but he was somewhat depressed in his heart: Although no one cares about winning or losing, now he will have a hard time with the prince. If he wins, the prince will lose face, and he can't stand down in front of the servants. If he loses, he will say that you didn't use your true skills.
You look down on people!
Thinking of this, Liu Juan couldn't help but feel a headache and simply refused.
The prince immediately said: "Why don't you dare? Get up, I, the king, now order you to have a few moves with me!"
When Liu Juan heard this, he hesitated and said: "Your Majesty...!"
The guard on the side immediately said: "Your Majesty, how about this, let me practice a few moves with him. I taught the prince's boxing skills, so let me practice a few moves with him, and let the prince see his skills."
You can do it, and you don’t have to worry about the prince getting hurt!”
The prince thought about it, nodded and said: "That's fine, then I will see your true ability. I didn't see it clearly that night!"
After hearing what the prince said, Liu Juan looked up at the prince and saw a peaceful expression on his face, with a faint smile on his face. He immediately began to guess what the prince's intentions were and what his so-called true ability was.
What.
However, looking at the expression on his face, Liu Juan was immediately certain that the prince who wanted him from the inner guard must have his own purpose, rather than a random rise. Similarly, the prince now has to look at his own abilities.
, it’s nothing more than testing whether you have any value in using it.
Knowing that this battle was unavoidable, Liu Juan also quickly considered something that was beneficial to him: that is the identity of the prince. As we all know, this prince is an idle prince, but prince Xian is also a prince, just like a napping tiger.
It's still a tiger, no one would say it's a kitten. Now my identity is an internal guard, but I'm just a soldier of the internal guard. There are tens of thousands of people like me in the whole capital. To gain a foothold, we need to have a chance.
The best way to climb up is to have a strong backing in addition to the internal guards, and the prince is undoubtedly the best choice. If you can gain the trust of the prince in addition to the internal guards, then those who want to move you
People, you have to think about it.
The so-called third-grade official of the prime minister’s disciples!
After understanding all this, Liu Juan raised his head slightly, then stood up, clasped his fists at Ruo Qiyi, and said coldly: "Then, it's better to obey my orders than to be respectful!"
If Qi can be invited by the prince to teach him, his skills must be good, then Liu Juan will have to brace himself to deal with it. When facing the battle, Liu Juan will naturally return to his previous fighting state, and his whole temperament will also change.
.
Ruo Qi was stunned and looked straight at Liu Juan. He also couldn't figure out why a guard who was cowering just now suddenly changed his attitude after agreeing to fight.
Liu Juan did not avoid his gaze, but looked at him calmly, with a cold expression like cold snow meeting the sun, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. At this moment, Liu Juan adjusted his mentality. If it were Liu Juan
Just now he was a wolf preparing to hunt, so now Liu Juan is a wolf in sheep's clothing, facing his opponent in time and unpredictable.
Ruo Qi was even more surprised. He instinctively felt a hint of danger, but in front of the prince, he did not show a trace of timidity. Instead, he cupped his fists and said: "Brother Er, please!"
Liu Juan cupped his fists and said, "Please!"
After saying that, he swung his clothes back, put his left hand behind his back, and stretched his right hand forward. If anyone knows Jet Li, they will definitely exclaim: Aolai is the Chinese version!
When Ruo Qi saw Liu Juan's hand pointed at her, she thought he was looking down on her, and she couldn't help but feel a little angry. She yelled and rushed towards Liu Juan without being polite.
In fact, Liu Juan felt awkward using this move now. After all, he and the Dragon Group members had learned how to subdue the enemy as quickly as possible, because the battlefield was changing rapidly, time was life, and it was also related to the victory of the battle, and
The Dragon Group belongs to the special forces among the special forces. Sabotage is one of their tasks. Therefore, when facing the enemy, they must be cold, ruthless, and without any mercy. The so-called "hand over the gun and not kill" slogan will never be uttered.
They said that after all, they did not have extra people to guard the prisoners. Therefore, what they focused on was to eliminate the enemy as quickly as possible, but now they had to grind it slowly like tofu. In time, Liu Juan had become somewhat accustomed to this style of fighting.
But because the time was too short, it still seemed a little uncomfortable compared to what I was used to.
But there was no other way. Seeing Ruo Qi rushing over, Liu Juan could only deal with it carefully.
Ruo Qi's boxing techniques are all based on power. After all, he used to be a military commander, but when he fought with Liu Juan, he suddenly felt depressed. The opponent was not only like a loach, but also like a top, unable to exert any strength at all.
superior.
Regardless of how Ruo Qi feels inside, as long as outsiders come in, the two of them are playing table tennis vigorously, and if they learn this, they are very powerful, but Liu Juan is somewhat impatient and always dodges.
So the people who slowly gathered around cheered for Ruo Qi. After all, Ruo Qi had spent a lot of time in the Prince's Mansion, and Liu Juan was just here for the first time, so the Prince's Mansion was Ruo Qi's home court.
However, only those who have been there know what it feels like.
The prince on the side couldn't help but touch his beard, and then nodded. After the two fought for a while, he saw that neither of them could do anything to the other, so he said: "Okay, stop!"
When the two people who were fighting heard this, they immediately stopped and respectfully clasped their fists at the prince and said, "Yes!"
In Ruo Qi's heart, he breathed a sigh of relief. After fighting for so long, he could not do anything to the other party. If word spread, it would definitely affect his reputation.
Liu Juan also breathed a sigh of relief: This kind of defense-only strategy is very tiring.
The second prince looked at Liu Juan with a smile and praised: "Yes, yes, being able to tie with Ruo Qi's teacher shows that you are indeed quite capable, so now I can feel free to leave that matter to you!"
"That thing?"
Liu Juan couldn't help but be stunned.
Before he could react, he heard the prince shout: "Long'er, come out, you've seen enough!"
After hearing this, Liu Juan felt a little uneasy. Based on his intuition, he felt that the matter that the prince wanted to entrust to him was somewhat troublesome.
At this moment, a crisp voice came from my ears: "Father, have you seen me?"
Looking towards the source of the sound, I saw a child standing up from a flower in the yard.
"Little prince!"
Everyone present bowed down and saluted, and Liu Juan followed suit. However, there was a somewhat ominous premonition in his heart! But there was no expression on his face.
The young prince, whose real name was Ruolong, waved his hands after hearing the words of the guards, then looked at Liu Juan with interest, and then walked quickly to the prince's side and said: "Father, what are you doing?"
Did you see me? I came quietly?"
The prince patted her hand lovingly and said with a smile: "You are hiding there, it is very conspicuous. Father, I am not blind, so why can't I see you?"
When Liu Juan heard what the prince said, he quietly turned his head and looked at the place where the young prince was hiding just now. Then he couldn't help being stunned, and then he couldn't help but notice that the prince was getting up, because the place where the young prince was hiding just now was in that place.
The plants were so dense that if you weren't careful, you wouldn't be able to see them at all. However, just now the prince was paying attention to the fight between himself and Ruo Qi, and he still had the energy to pay attention to the surrounding environment. This shows that he is not as simple as he seems.
Ruolong smiled slightly and said: "That's right, but what are Father and Uncle Seven doing here? I saw that Uncle Seven was competing with someone just now?"
The prince chuckled and said: "I was choosing a teacher for you just now. Don't you always complain that the teachers who teach you all embroider pillows? How about it? How about the teacher I selected for you this time?"
After saying that, he pointed at Liu Juan and said, "I got this from your Uncle Wu!"
"Inner guard?"
Ruolong's brows couldn't help but frown slightly, and then he said with some displeasure: "Inner Guard, can those people be my teachers?"
It was obvious that the young prince had a big prejudice against the inner guard, which made Liu Juan a little strange. You must know that the inner guard was equivalent to the emperor's personal soldiers, and they had a close relationship with the royal family.
Now the young prince is obviously dissatisfied with the inner guard, which is indeed a bit strange.
The prince's face couldn't help but change, and he said slightly reproachfully: "No need to be rude, although this guard is a member of the inner guard, his kung fu is not bad, and his boxing skills are very suitable for you to practice!"
Liu Juan also understood at this time that it turned out that the prince was a fake just now. The purpose of letting him compete with Ruo Qi was to choose a teacher for the young prince! Thinking of this, Liu Juan suddenly wanted to shirk it, but he was just a soldier.
Even when he arrived at the Prince's Mansion, he was just a bodyguard, and there were many guards like him in the entire Prince's Mansion.
Therefore, when faced with the argument between the prince and the young prince, he had no chance to speak.
