Chapter 61 The Eve of the Decisive Battle
It’s midsummer again.
Prince Fu's Mansion.
Practice ground.
"Hey ha!"
He shouted softly.
A small hand as white as jade hit a piece of bluestone, and the bluestone suddenly shattered, as if it had been struck by a sledgehammer.
The princess looked at her palms in disbelief. Their skin was white and tender, they could be broken by a blow, but they could split bluestone.
"This... I am a warrior the day after tomorrow?"
Warriors acquire true qi the day after tomorrow, and some people call it nei qi, which is the magical power generated in the qi and blood. Once achieved, it can break monuments and crack rocks.
But the princess knew that she had only practiced martial arts for less than a few months.
Even talking about practicing martial arts is a bit flattering.
It was just a matter of putting on some airs, stretching her muscles, and from time to time she would be taken advantage of by someone. Sometimes she would be teased so much that she couldn't stand it, and the two of them would have a ridiculous scene.
Just like three days of fishing and two days of drying nets,
She even suspected that someone taught her martial arts mainly to stretch her muscles and make her waist more flexible so that she could achieve some difficult postures with him.
It's not like someone can't do this kind of thing.
But now, with the Qi achieved, the princess felt ashamed of her suspicions.
Yu Xian patted the princess's butt.
Not bad, very flexible.
Women who have practiced martial arts are indeed different.
With the blessing of the martial arts realm, the princess successfully achieved reverse growth. Not only did her appearance become younger and more energetic, her figure also became tighter.
"Do you think I'm deceiving you? If it weren't for your poor foundation and your lack of seriousness in practicing, you would have developed your Qi long ago.
Look at Magnolia, you are just one step away from the innate realm. "
The gentle Yulan on the side smiled sheepishly.
Although her cultivation of immortality is as slow as a tortoise, her martial arts realm has been improved by Yu Xian's foundation-building power.
Now his seemingly petite body contains energy and blood comparable to that of a bull.
Although Yulan has little fighting experience, she can conquer ten martial arts at once and can suppress most of the famous masters in the world with just one set of Wang Ba Fist.
The princess usually only eats some leftovers of magnolia, but for ordinary people, it is also a huge blessing.
But the princess didn't know Yu Xian's different treatment. She only saw the facts before her, and she had to admit that she didn't work hard.
She covered her butt and said a little aggrievedly:
"It's because I don't practice seriously. It's obviously you who keeps bullying me."
She has always been in great shape.
She wears slim-fitting clothes when practicing, and her movements particularly highlight her figure. Coupled with the various label bonuses on her body, it's really hard not to be tempted.
Yu Xian has always had little self-control.
"Ahem..."
Yu Xian coughed twice and abruptly changed the subject.
"Kyoto has been uneasy recently. I have asked Eunuch Li to thank guests behind closed doors. You should not go out during this period and practice hard at home."
The princess lives in the back house and usually takes Magnolia out for shopping. She never pays much attention to the external situation.
"What happened? Doesn't it mean that the imperial court has blocked the rebels?"
Two months ago, an elite group of guards called the Black Wolf Guards secretly supported the front line.
They deliberately lured the rebel vanguard into the city and fought with the rebels on the streets for several days. In the end, the rebels lost many troops and generals. It is said that they also lost several martial arts masters, and they retreated in defeat.
The imperial court gathered a hundred thousand troops and pursued them for eighty miles, forcing the rebels to retreat one after another, leaving several cities behind.
This was also the first major victory for the imperial court since it faced the rebels. It was very exciting and restored many wavering hearts.
As the imperial court continued to increase its troops, the imperial army and the rebels were now facing off in Cangbei City. Everything seemed to be back to the beginning, except that it was an offensive and defensive type.
Yu Xian shook his head and said: "I have blocked it, but recently there has been an influx of strange warriors in Kyoto, vicious cases have occurred frequently, and many officials and their families have been killed.
You are so beautiful, if anything happens to you, I will regret it. "
Those warriors should be Jianghu people driven by the Qinglong Society.
During this period, Kyoto was in a state of chaos every day, and all government agencies were extremely busy.
This is the consequence of the loss of the imperial court's majesty.
Most of these warriors who dare to cause trouble are not optimistic about the court's follow-up. Perhaps they have the promise of the Qinglong Society, so naturally they will not care about the court's subsequent revenge.
Without worries, they had no worries when they wreaked havoc.
Even if the imperial army suppresses it, it will be useless.
Maybe there are people in the imperial court. Since ancient times, when the country's survival is critical, there have been some so-called court officials who understand the situation clearly and make secret arrangements with the enemy.
But ordinary people can neither resist the government nor the martial arts masters, so they can only pray that bad luck will not come to their doorstep.
Although people are still coming and going throughout Kyoto, the commercial market is declining at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Even several entertainment venues that Yu Xian frequented were closed to customers.
Perhaps it won't be long before the city gates of Kyoto will have to be sealed to prevent outsiders from entering or exiting.
"...But you don't have to worry, the mansion has already prepared enough grain and rice, as well as two underground wells, which is enough for the mansion to live for several years.
Even if the imperial court is really defeated, it doesn't matter. I will just protect you and leave. "
When it comes to running away, he is a professional.
The princess was stunned for a moment, and then said: "I asked General Manager Li to bring Heng'er back from the Imperial Academy, but I still haven't learned this yet."
"That's fine."
Yu Xian nodded.
…
At night.
Several dark figures in night clothes climbed over the wall. Before they could move, they heard several whistling sounds in the air.
Bang bang bang! !
Flowers of blood bloomed on the black shadow's chest, and fell in the air. Not even a word was left, and there was no more life left.
After a while, several torches were raised.
It is the palace guard.
"Supervisor Shenwei! These thieves dare to offend the palace. They really overestimate their capabilities."
The guard commander stepped forward to compliment him with a look of admiration, but there was a fear hidden in his voice that even he himself was not aware of.
He could see clearly just now that the supervisor just flicked his fingers, and the zhenqi was activated, like flying swords, directly killing the thieves who tried to enter the palace on the spot.
A martial arts master can indeed release his true energy, but three feet away is the limit.
But the manager and the snitch were more than a hundred steps apart!
When his martial arts reaches this level, he is like a land god.
"Take off their scarves and hang the bodies outside the wall. No cat or dog can enter the palace."
Yu Xian's voice was as calm as water.
The dignified Foundation Establishment Overhaul bullied a few thieves who were not even talented, and even if he said it, he would make people laugh.
In the past few days, he has killed several groups of thieves who tried to sneak into the palace.
Prince Fu came to Beijing with his wealth, but he was too low-key and never showed any strength. In the eyes of some people, he was just a fat man.
Naturally, no one dares to commit this crime in peacetime, but now that Kyoto is in turmoil, more and more people are fishing in troubled waters.
His consciousness scanned the faces under the masks of the thieves. Among them were many old men from underground gangs in Kyoto. Perhaps they had already targeted Prince Fu's Mansion.
"yes!"
The guard commander smiled sinisterly at the corpse on the ground.
"My subordinates will definitely handle them well!"
Yu Xian didn't pay attention to these trivial matters, looking leisurely into the depths of the night.
Prince Fu's Mansion is at the foot of the serious Imperial City. The people living on this street are all dignitaries, and even they have been attacked by thieves.
In other words, Kyoto's defense power is on the verge of collapse.
"It looks like the day of decisive battle is not far away. The letter is obviously effective. The Lin family monks are moving much faster."
