Dragon fights in Tang Dynasty

To be a master is to endure hardships. This sentence is an unbreakable truth wherever you go, but well, it is easy to say, and everyone can talk about it for fun, but it is really capable. How many can do it?Li Zhen doesn't care about other people, what annoys Li Zhen the most now is that someone said this in front of him, if anyone says this, Li Zhen must be in a hurry with him, without him, right now Li Zhen is living in unspeakable misery Woolen cloth.

It’s already very hot in May in the capital, even if you hide in the shade in a single suit, you can sweat a lot. If you walk under the sun, you’ll probably work hard, and the sweat on your body will pour out like a waterfall , if you have to carry heavy loads and run around under the scorching sun, that kind of crime is probably a bit inhuman.It seems that these days should be cool in the room where the ice cubes are hidden. If you can drink a pot of sour plum soup with ice cubes, it will be so refreshing, but it is a pity that such a good thing is far away for Li Zhen See, under the big sun, Li Zhenzheng is holding a big bucket as thick as his waist, and striding forward with two little feet struggling to shake.

It's been half a year, it's been half a year, from March [-]th to now it's almost dog days, Li Zhen has never had a comfortable day at all, the daily tasks are full-- Early in the morning, he had to go to Li Jing's mansion to study, and after noon, he had to go to Qin Qiong's mansion to practice art. Li Jing's side was fine, the left and right were just learning essays, reciting books, writing, let alone learning the art of war and strategy. It's martial arts, and I've never seen Li Jing mention it. The so-called homework is not enough for Li Zhen's teeth. I haven’t seen the knife, and every day is a job-carrying water, you can’t use a pole, you have to use your hand, and you have to fill a water tank within the specified time every day before you can call it a day. Since last year until now, the water tanker Not to mention that the water tank is getting bigger and bigger, the bucket in his hand is also getting better, but the incense to calculate the time is getting shorter and shorter. Qin Qiong is still a strict teacher, and he is never willing to be lenient, but when it is time, the punishment is certain There was no way to escape, Li Zhen was so overwhelmed that she couldn't even breathe.

Three times, damn it, at least three more times to complete today's task.Li Zhen, who was walking, staggered and nearly fell to the ground. She managed to gain a firm footing, shook her head violently, and shook off the sweat dripping from her eyelashes. They are all depressed, and there is still a trace of unwillingness. Without him, Li Zhen is the only one who suffers this kind of living crime, but Li Zhi, who also worships Qin Qiong as his teacher, doesn't need it--at the beginning, Li Zhi was just like Li Zhen. Carrying water, but since he fell ill due to the cold, there was a decree from the palace: Jin Wang only needs to learn a little riding and archery. The master drank herbal tea, but he himself had to do hard work. The difference between the day and the place really made Li Zhen very heartbroken. There was nothing he could do. Who made Li Zhen a "general star", so he had to endure hardships. .

"Come on myna, the incense is going out!" Just as Li Zhen was thinking about it, Li Zhi's crisp voice rang out.

Come on, damn it, if you don't hurry up, you will be punished again if you look back. Damn Xiaojiu, why is life so good?Li Zhen didn't even have the strength to answer, she shook her head with a wry smile, and hurried forward stumbling forward, feeling a little puzzled in her heart—it wasn't that Li Zhen couldn't endure hardships in her previous life, but she wasn't so big Otherwise, he would not have made up his mind to take the postgraduate entrance examination when he was working in the printing factory. Isn't it just to change to a more comfortable working environment?This time I finally became a prince, and enjoyed all the glory and wealth, but I was able to suffer a lot. It's all about it. No matter what, Li Zhen couldn't figure out where the spirit of enduring hardship came from. Yes, maybe it can only be attributed to time travel syndrome.

Damn, it's over!When the sun was setting, Li Zhen finally poured the last bucket of water into the water tank just before the incense burnt out. She was so tired that she sat down on the ground, panting hard, her small arms The calf was so sore that it seemed to be broken, and it took a while to recover some strength. Dragging two empty buckets, some sons walked dejectedly to the shade of Qin Qiong's tree, panting: "Master, the students have completed today's task." Homework, please teach the master."

Mr. Qin lay down comfortably on the rocking chair Li Zhenxin sent him, looked at Li Zhen with half-opened eyes and said, "Well, good, start practicing guns tomorrow."

Aha, I've learned the gun, damn it, I don't have to be a plumber anymore.Li Zhen was so excited that she almost threw the pair of empty buckets in her hand, but she didn't expect that Mr. Qin's next words would make Li Zhen fall to the ground from the clouds again - "Tomorrow, change to a big bucket and a big water tank."

What?Are you sure you have to carry water?I rely on it!Li Zhen was angry and impatient, and almost cursed, but seeing Qin Qiong's burly figure, she didn't dare to make a sound, so she had no choice but to say with a bitter face: "Yes, master, the student obeys."

"Well, let's go here today, let's all go back." Qin Qiong nodded with satisfaction, indicating that the Li Zhen brothers can leave.

"Students leave." The two Li Zhen brothers bowed and saluted each other, and walked out of the back garden of the Qin Mansion side by side.

"Brother." Just after walking out of the gate of the Qin Mansion, before Li Zhen got on the sedan chair, Li Zhi suddenly called out from behind. There was a little panic, a little anxiety, and a little bit in that voice. expectations.

Um?What is this kid doing?When Li Zhen heard something wrong with Li Zhi's tone, she was stunned for a moment, but now Li Zhen was too tired to think about it, and said without turning her head: "If you have something to say, just say it."

"Brother, it's like this, the eldest sister, ah, and the second sister asked the younger brother to ask the younger brother, do you still have the kind, ah, the orchid table and chairs that the younger brother gave to the younger brother?" Li Zhi held back for a long time, Only then mustered up the courage to ask timidly.

Eldest sister, second sister?Hey shit.Li Zhen naturally understands that the eldest sister and second sister in Li Zhi's mouth refer to Princess Changle and Princess Chengyang. Speaking of these two princesses who are together, one is the fifth and the other is the sixth, and the former is the eldest grandson of the empress. Daughter, the latter is the adopted daughter of the eldest grandson empress, and she can also be regarded as a concubine. In the eyes of this son-in-law, all other princesses are excluded. This makes Li Zhen very dissatisfied. After all, Li Zhen is also a concubine. I don't have any good feelings for those sons and daughters, but Li Zhen naturally didn't bring her thoughts to her face, paused, turned around and said: "What are you talking about, my brother? It’s the ninth brother’s, so what are you doing so clearly, that’s good, brother, let someone go to the ‘Yanji’ and tell me, can I send it to the palace tomorrow?”

Li Zhi nodded his head happily, his eyes narrowed into slits when he smiled, and Li Zhen cursed inwardly, but with an amiable smile on his face, he patted Li Zhi on the shoulder and said, "Let's go, it's time to go back!" It's time for the palace, and I have to go to school tomorrow morning."

"En." Li Zhi nodded vigorously, and returned to his big sedan chair very satisfied.Li Zhen laughed at herself, got up the sedan chair, and ordered Liu Dequan, who was accompanying her, to get up the sedan chair and go back to the palace, but her heart was full of displeasure: Damn, there must be something wrong with this matter, Changle and Chengyang are not the same. People who are greedy for small things, besides, although the set of tables and chairs is a bit expensive, it is still a breeze to buy a set for the two of them, there is no reason for Xiao Jiu to come out and reach out to us. Maybe Xiao Jiu is trying to please her two older sisters. Hey, it seems that Xiao Jiu is not a simple character. She knows how to behave well at a young age, and she uses my things to do it. Favor, damn it!Never mind, I don't intend to seize the heir, thinking about what to do with those who don't have it, bad luck, I have to work tomorrow, I'd better go back and freshen up, and go to bed early.

Li Zhen, who was exhausted and sleepless all night, got up early in the morning, was dressed and washed by the eunuchs, hurriedly had breakfast, and met Li Zhi at the gate of the palace. It is a common practice to ride a sedan chair to Li Jing's mansion outside the city, but it is the same on all days when Li Jing is not in court, but there is nothing to say, but this little girl who rushed to Li Jing's mansion today The two brothers were surprised to find that Li Jing was not the only one waiting in the study room, there was also a white Taoist priest in Taoist robes sitting on the futon with his eyes closed and meditating.

"Student Li Zhen (Li Zhi) has met Li Xiang." The Li Zhen brothers were full of doubts in their hearts, but they did not dare to be rude in front of the always serious Li Jing, and hurried forward to salute.

"En." Li Jing never likes to talk too much, so he just responded lightly, waved his hands, and motioned for the two brothers to sit down, but he turned his body sideways, bent slightly, and looked at the man who was closing his eyes and resting his mind. The white Taoist priest said: "Brother, they are here."

brother?Mr. Li actually has a senior brother, heh, where does this old man come from? It’s strange, why have we never heard that Mr. Li has a teacher, even those unofficial histories of later generations have never said which family Mr. Li is from? The character of the school, eh, has been in this dynasty for so many years, and it seems that no one has ever heard of the origin of Mr. Li's abilities. Ha, it seems that the answer to this mystery should be revealed today.With a flash of thought in Li Zhen's mind, she looked curiously at the white Taoist priest who was still closing his eyes, but unexpectedly, at the same time Li Zhen looked at the old Taoist priest, the old Taoist priest suddenly opened his eyes, and there was a twinkle in his eyes. She didn't look dizzy at all, but was as sharp as two sharp swords, which made Li Zhen feel as if she was naked in front of her, and her heart suddenly trembled, and she forced herself to look away, not daring to face the old Taoist again. See.

"My lords, the poor Taoist Yuan Tiangang is justified." The voice of the old Taoist priest was very gentle, but he was full of energy. Hearing his voice alone, he didn't look like an old and frail person, on the contrary, he looked like a young scholar. generally.

Yuan Tiangang?Such a familiar name, um, it's him, why is he here?Li Zhen's heart trembled suddenly, and she suddenly remembered who the old Taoist priest in front of him was——Yuan Tiangang, a native of Chengdu, Yizhou (now Chengdu, Sichuan) in the early Tang Dynasty, was good at learning, and was the most famous acquaintance in the early Tang Dynasty There are many records about this person in both official history and unofficial history. According to unofficial history records: When Wu Meiniang was still in her infancy, this person asserted that Wu Meiniang would one day become the emperor.

Compared to Li Zhen's shock, Li Zhi didn't react much. He didn't know what kind of person this old Taoist priest who called himself Yuan Tiangang was. Seeing Li Jing calling him a senior brother, Li Zhi didn't dare to be rude, and smiled. Then he replied: "Immortal Elder, you are too polite. Since Immortal Elder is the senior brother of the family teacher, Xiao Wang should still call Immortal Elder Senior Master."

"Don't dare, His Royal Highness Jin Wang is too polite. The poor man can't bear the name of uncle." Yuan Tiangang smiled gently and said, "His Royal Highness Jin, please take a seat. If you don't dislike it, let the poor man do it for you." How does your Highness look?"

Li Zhi was not polite, he smiled and said: "Master has orders, Xiao Wang will obey." As soon as the words fell, he smiled and sat down on the chair with his hands down without saying a word.

Yuan Tiangang nodded with a smile, carefully looked at Li Zhi's face, his right finger kept doing tricks, calculated for a while, and suddenly a flash of light flashed in his eyes and said: "Okay, okay, okay, I would like to give a word to Your Highness." Please keep it in mind, Your Highness, and never forget: when you meet Wu Chengxiang, when you meet Su in trouble, you should break it up. If Your Highness can pass the test, you will be able to travel thousands of miles in the future."

Li Zhi has never known the way of facial appearance, and he didn't take it to heart when he heard this remark, he just thanked him casually, but Li Zhen was different, he knew the general development direction of history, and when he heard this remark, his heart jumped The ground shook, and his complexion suddenly turned ugly: Yu Wu Chengxiang, damn it, doesn't the word Wu refer to Wu Meiniang?Damn, wasn't this old guy sent by Wu Meiniang?wrong!Wu Meiniang is still a yellow-haired girl at the moment, and there are not many people in Tang Dynasty who know her name. No matter how powerful Wu Meiniang is, it is impossible to start planning big plans when she was a child, not to mention that this old guy is Li Jing's senior brother. I can handle it, damn it, it seems that this old man really has the ability to predict, well, he is in trouble with Su, who is this Su referring to?Li Zhen's mind became a mess, and he was so absorbed in his thoughts for a while that he didn't even hear Yuan Tiangang greet him. In the end, it was Li Zhi who secretly pulled Li Zhen out of his sleepwalking state. When she came back, seeing the old Taoist priest looking at her with a smile, Li Zhen hurriedly collected herself, got up and said respectfully: "Xiao Wang Li Zhen has met the immortal elder, what advice does the immortal elder have?"

Yuan Tiangang smiled, glanced at Li Zhen, and said lightly: "My lord, please take your seat."

Seeing that what Yuan Tiangang showed to Li Zhi was quite reliable, Li Zhen couldn't help feeling a little uneasy. After all, she knows her own affairs best, and Li Zhen is really worried that her identity will be revealed. This unpredictable old Taoist was seen through, but he didn't expect that Yuan Tiangang didn't mean to show Li Zhen, but just looked at Li Zhen indifferently, without saying a word, which disturbed Li Zhen's heart. , Yuan Tiangang sighed suddenly and said: "His Royal Highness is a predestined person, and the poor have something to give." As soon as the words fell, he took out a small flat package from his arms, and handed it to Li chastity.

Some sons of Li Zhen took the small package inexplicably, and opened it, but it was an old book with a worn cover. The book was not thick, only about ten pages, and the words on the cover were worn out long ago. Li Zhen just wanted to open the book to find out what happened, but Yuan Tiangang said with a smile: "This thing belongs to the poor Taoist sect. His Royal Highness the King of Han will look at it when he has time in the future. Before parting, the poor Taoist has one thing to ask."

Well, this old cow nose is mysterious, what kind of demon moth is the whole thing?Li Zhenjin was full of doubts, but she still responded very respectfully: "Master has something to do, just ask, but if Xiao Wang can do it, he will definitely not refuse."

"That's good, if that's the case, I will thank His Highness the King of Han first." Yuan Tiangang's face flashed a trace of excitement, and he took a deep breath and said: "Pindao asks himself the best physiognomy in the world, and there is no one who cannot be counted." However, those who look at each other can’t figure it out, and there’s nothing they can do about it.” After a pause, he continued: “Poverty’s future may have something to do with His Highness the King of Han, if there is any offense, please forgive him.”

What?What is this old bull nose talking about?Damn, why can't I understand it, it seems that this old man gave us things just to let us let him go in the future?Damn, won't it be so magical?There are ghosts in Li Zhen's heart, and there is no peace in her heart. Some people believe it, but the years of atheism education in the previous life made Li Zhen unable to believe that there is such a thing as fate. For a while, some people were stunned Confused, the expression on his face kept changing, and after a long silence, he said with a firm face: "Xiao Wang must obey what the uncle said."

"Thank you, Your Highness, King of Han." As soon as Li Zhen's words fell, Yuan Tiangang let out a sigh of relief as if he had been released, and suddenly got up, looked at Li Zhen meaningfully and said: "If you think about it, you must move it. His Highness the King of Han just needs to follow his heart and he will be free from worries." After speaking, he neither explained nor gave Li Zhen a chance to ask questions, but laughed at Li Jing who had been sitting silently by the side. He walked away, leaving only the three teachers and apprentices who were full of thoughts in the room, and a strange atmosphere permeated the study...
