Hearing this, Zheng Ying twitched the corners of her mouth, feeling that the Holy Lord believed in Li Changkong too much.
It's not that he looks down on Li Changkong, on the contrary, he thinks highly of Li Changkong.
After all, this kid has accomplished so many great things since last year.
Not to mention anything else, just the instant products and new rice are a huge blessing.
Who among the civil and military officials of this dynasty dares to underestimate Uncle Anbei?
But it's one thing to see it, and another thing to believe it or not.
No matter how powerful this Li Changkong is, he is still a human being!
Emperor Zhenwu, that is a god!
Zi Buyu has strange powers and chaos, even a person like him who has never read a book knows this.
How can man invite God?
If there really was such a magical power, why would the generals and nobles learn martial arts? They would all learn Taoism.
When the time comes, on that battlefield, with just a wave of the whisk, the Zhenwu Emperor can be summoned to the mortal world. Wouldn’t that mean he will be victorious in every battle?
Thinking of this, Zheng Ying even laughed.
Of course, it doesn't matter what he thinks.
What matters is what Emperor Jing Xing thinks!
His Majesty is willing to believe even such ridiculous things, which shows his favor for the Li family!
…
In this way, the battle of wits caused quite a stir in Qiandu City, and it can be said that the city was full of uproar.
In such an atmosphere, at dusk on the seventh day.
Tianfu Restaurant is already packed with seats.
The Wulinghou Mansion has already released the news that the fighting will be held in Nanhe Lane.
Tianfu Restaurant is the best place to watch.
Therefore, scholars, businessmen traveling from north to south, and even some officials from the imperial court and noble disciples all came to Tianfu Restaurant one after another, and occupied a good seat early, ready to watch.
Of course, some were dragged here by force.
Li Ru is such a person.
He looked at his enthusiastic friend in front of him and couldn't help but sigh: "Brother Wang, Brother Wang, you are so powerful and crazy!"
"These are clearly written in the saint's articles, why don't you believe it?"
"If you don't go to study in this great time, why don't you come here to watch some kind of fighting? Isn't it in vain?"
When the scholar surnamed Wang heard this, he said: "Brother Li, this is wrong!"
"If someone says they want to fight, I won't believe it."
"But Li Anbei is different. This is General Anbei, a fifth-rank official granted by the imperial court."
"The most terrifying thing is that he only qualified for the championship this year!"
"What's more, it is rumored that this person has a very good relationship with His Highness the Crown Prince. Then when the Crown Prince ascends the throne in the future, won't he be a very popular minister?"
"When the time comes, we won't have to watch it even if we want to."
"It's rare to come out today, and it's rare to see this happen, so it doesn't hurt to take a look at the excitement."
"I promise you, after reading this, we will go to the Imperial College to study our homework, how about it?"
When Li Ru heard this, he felt helpless.
He wanted to say, no matter how high-ranking Li Anbei is, what does he have to do with us?
They are nobles and we are scholars. Even if we become officials in the future, we will still be civil servants.
If you are born with conflicting horoscopes, you will not be able to sit at the same table when eating.
If that's the case, what else is there to see?
However, since the other party has already talked about this, it would be inappropriate for him to spoil the fun any more.
The most important thing is that this meal was invited by the other party...
"Then we can agree and leave after watching it!"
"Let's go after reading this!" the scholar named Wang said with a dumb smile.
However, while they were talking, there was sudden noise outside the window.
Bonfires were lit one after another, and two figures came into view one after another.
One of them, with a bloated figure and wearing a yellow Taoist robe, looked like Chen Qianyuan.
The other person has a slender and well-proportioned figure, with his head held high and his chest raised, sword-shaped eyebrows and starry eyes, and he is dressed in a purple Taoist robe, which makes him even more heroic.
It's Li Changkong!
And the Taoist robe he wore was also somewhat particular.
It was not a fake that he bought himself like before, but one from Tianyi Sect, Zhang Hongfa personally gave it to him, and it was an officially certified authentic product!
Not to mention anything else, just by making such an appearance, the image of the two people is already clear.
"I've met Uncle Master." Even now, Chen Qianyuan still doesn't think Li Changkong can invite Emperor Zhenwu, and naturally he doesn't intend to quarrel with him, so he still needs to have the proper etiquette!
"Well, I am my uncle after all. I am your elder. I won't take advantage of you this time. How about I let you come first?" Li Changkong said.
This time was different from before. Zhu Ben and Zhang Han were not here. He only brought Jia Taisui with him.
"Then I have to thank you, uncle." Chen Qianyuan said with a smile.
In his opinion, it doesn't matter who goes first and who comes last, they will all end in failure anyway.
After saying this, he ignored Li Changkong and walked straight forward.
The fighting altar this time is five meters high.
Ordinary people would have weak legs just to stand up, let alone do the exercises.
But Chen Qianyuan is different. After more than ten years of Taoist life, he still has some foundation in martial arts.
Although his bloated figure prevents him from fighting in battle, it is still easy to get up on a high platform and stabilize his body.
After all, when practicing martial arts, the first thing to practice is pile skills!
I saw Chen Qianyuan on the fighting stage, holding a peach wood sword, lighting the talisman, and dancing a set of decent sword skills.
His eyes were as bright as a torch, and his mouth was full of words.
When the incense on the table burned out, he shouted loudly: "The time has come, please come to the world, Emperor Zhenwu!"
Suddenly, a strong wind blew up.
The onlookers around him, including those in the Tianfu Restaurant, were all leaning on the railings to watch the guests. At this moment, many of them stared with wide eyes in disbelief.
The scholar surnamed Wang even frantically slapped Li Ru on the shoulder and shouted: "Brother Li, Brother Li, Brother Li! Look! Emperor Zhenwu is coming to earth!"
When Li Ru saw this, he couldn't believe it and looked up.
But in the end, after the strong wind passed, there was... nothing.
This... is embarrassing.
Li Ru looked at the scholar named Wang and asked, "Brother Wang, is this Zhenwu Emperor transparent?"
"Ahem, cough, cough, it seems that this Taoist master is not good at Taoism." The scholar surnamed Wang coughed twice to relieve the embarrassment.
At this time, Chen Qianyuan stood on the fighting stage and sighed: "Everyone, I have tried my best, but the emperor is busy with affairs, so I may not be able to show up today!"
After saying that, he got off the stage, giving an explanation to the audience.
Seeing this, Li Changkong turned around and gave Jia Taisui a few words of advice before walking towards the stage.
When Jia Taisui saw this, he immediately turned around and left as fast as lightning.
Today's big drama would have been impossible without their cooperation!
After Li Changkong stepped onto the fighting stage, he shouted loudly and said: "Everyone, Master Nephew Chen said he couldn't invite Emperor Zhenwu because he was busy, but that's not true!"
"Actually, the prince I am courting is the emperor's real body. My nephew has not even invited the prince to the stage. How can he invite the emperor's true body?"
"Prince please!"
After Li Changkong finished speaking, a group of Qianlong Camp soldiers came over, surrounding the prince.
This scene immediately stunned everyone.
Brother Wang, the scholar, and Li Ru looked at each other and said in disbelief: "Good fellow, even His Highness the Crown Prince is here?"
