Chapter Five Hundred and Twenty One: Contradictions
The man in black robe looked at Li Xun and said, "You have mastered all my master's Qinggong, the method of hearing and positioning, and the internal skills. Today I will teach you hidden weapons."
Having said this, the man in black looked at Li Xun's hand, but then he was startled: "What's wrong with your hand?"
Li Xun said: "I suffered some injuries a few days ago."
The man in black robe said: "If you want to practice concealed weapons well, you must have a pair of flexible hands. From now on, you must protect your hands and never get hurt again."
Li Xun looked at his right hand that had begun to scab, nodded and said, "I remember."
The man in black robe threw a small porcelain bottle to Li Xun and said, "Put some medicine on it every day and it will heal faster."
Li Xun looked at the exquisite porcelain bottle and was slightly startled: "You still take medicine with you when you go out?"
The man in black robe said: "There is no need to be blind. If you get some injuries, use the rest. Since your hand is injured, you should take good care of it first. Otherwise, you will not be able to learn the subtleties. Let's stop here today."
After saying that, the man in black robe turned around and walked out directly from the door. He didn't climb over the wall or use any tricks to make himself lighter. He looked extremely confident in his own kung fu.
At this moment, the door to the side hall opened, and Li Mingyue walked out. Looking at Li Xun's face with a look of surprise, she asked: "Brother, that person just now..."
Li Xun injured his hand. Li Mingyue came to deliver medicine to Li Xun today. Instead of returning to his palace today, he chose to stay in the side hall for one night. This kind of behavior would of course not be allowed for an ordinary princess and prince, but these two
Even if the two brothers and sisters died in the palace, no one would care about them.
Although this palace is small and simple, it still has two side halls, but she didn't want Li Mingyue, who had not left today, to happen to see this scene.
When Li Xun saw Li Mingyue coming out of the side hall, his face softened: "He taught me all my skills, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to overcome all the palace restrictions that day."
Li Mingyue sighed and said: "Brother, there is no need to take such a risk for me. It's not worth it. I didn't take what happened that day to heart."
Li Xun said: "You didn't take it to heart and still cried in your palace for half the night?"
Li Mingyue was slightly startled: "How does brother know?"
Li Xun said: "After I finished dealing with the prince and that bitch that day, I passed by your palace and listened to the sounds to identify the position, meticulously."
Listening to the sound and identifying the position carefully, Li Mingyue was stunned when she heard this: "Doesn't that mean that my brother's teacher already knew that I was there?"
Li Xun nodded: "He knew it before he came in, but it doesn't matter."
Li Mingyue said: "He is a kind-hearted person. This medicine looks very expensive."
Li Xun's ears twitched. He lowered his voice after hearing no strange sound, shook his head and said: "Kindness? Not to mention. What is the purpose of supporting a powerless prince? It is self-evident. This palace
There are no kind people inside or outside the walls."
Li Mingyue heard this and was surprised: "Is he taking advantage of his brother?"
Li Xun nodded: "But the use is mutual. Hunters and prey are not the same. Don't have any hope for anyone inside or outside the palace walls. If you don't gain anything, you won't be able to do it early."
"Okay, go back to sleep. These are not things you should worry about. All you want to do is wait here quietly for your brother to get into that position, and then marry the person you want to marry in a glorious manner."
"This..." Li Mingyue suddenly blushed when she heard Li Xun's words: "Brother is talking nonsense..."
Li Xun smiled and said: "When I left Chu State, Brother Xu gave me a lot of things. He didn't ask for anything. He only told me that he and your sister Su hope to make your life happy in the future. Now in
There are people thousands of miles away who are still thinking about you all the time, don’t you want to go back and see?”
Li Mingyue felt warmer in her heart when she heard this, but saying it in the mouth of her elder brother, a parent, still made Li Mingyue blush more and more, feeling embarrassed to stay here.
Li Xun looked at Li Mingyue who shyly ran back to the side hall, the gentle smile on his face suddenly restrained, replaced by a deep desire, a desire for power!
…
Li Xun naturally knew who the teacher was who taught him various martial arts every day.
Hidden weapons, concealment, light skills, even able to come and go freely in the palace.
There is only one person in the world, and that is the Imperial Master of the State of Zhou.
In addition to never letting himself see his true face, he did not deliberately hide his strengths and information that could be explored from himself, as if he did it on purpose.
Make it easy for yourself to guess who he is, but still not reveal his true identity.
…
What he said to Li Mingyue today was just to make her suspicious and wary of anyone, because naive people will not survive long in this deep palace.
Although he wanted to protect the innocence in his sister's heart, he was not strong enough and could only tell his sister that the reality was cruel.
In fact, the true thoughts and purposes of his teacher have always been a mystery in Li Xun's heart.
Because what his teacher did was not logical at all.
He himself is already a national advisor under one person and above ten thousand people. Furthermore, he only has the throne. If he wants to be legitimate, he must support a puppet who obeys his orders.
But this was not the case. He taught him everything he could about martial arts and Qinggong. He also taught him various political affairs, asked him what his views were, corrected his single judgment on one thing, and taught him the righteousness of his family and country, and ancient history.
, the key to current affairs.
He is not training a puppet, because the puppet does not need to know so much, the puppet only needs to be obedient.
He teaches these things to train emperors!
But this doesn't make sense, because he doesn't need to focus on himself. Even if he doesn't like the prince, there are still two princes in the capital, and their mother and concubine are from well-known families and have contacts with many important officials in the court.
According to the news returned by his subordinates, Prince Duan, born to Concubine Shu, is quite benevolent and has a model of a wise king. He is also very talented in literature and has learned a lot from ancient times to the present. If the prince is not the eldest son born to the empress, this East Palace
I am afraid that the position will fall to King Duan.
Of course, there is another point that is even more confusing, that is, my contact with the generals of the Twelve Guards has become extremely smooth these days, and the traces of details that were not handled well and had a chance of being exposed were deliberately erased.
If you contact the Twelve Guards privately, let alone the prince, the prince will die, because it is a provocation to the imperial power!
Although this teacher doesn't give him any material support, he secretly helps him erase the details that he can't handle. Does he really want him to rebel?
No, the National Master should not have this idea.
Because when he mentioned the emperor in front of him, he still called him "Your Majesty" respectfully, and it seemed that he had no intention of encouraging him to seek power and usurp the throne.
Since he could speak freely with his face covered, he was extremely cautious and did not do anything disrespectful.
This was why Li Xun was puzzled. The emperor wanted to use him and his sister as an excuse to start a war, but the imperial master respected the emperor while secretly teaching him martial arts and political history.
He really couldn't predict the real purpose behind the seemingly contradictory actions of the Imperial Master.
Could it be that he also has unspeakable difficulties?
However, no matter what the national teacher is like, one thing remains unchanged.
That is, regardless of the instigation of the imperial master or not, Li Xun has decided to oppose him!
From the moment the man in the high position wanted to sacrifice his sister to find an excuse to start a war, Li Xun never thought of letting him go.
Li Xun really doesn't care about the throne that he didn't get through rebellion!
