It's quiet at night.
Li Garden, inner courtyard.
There were numerous shadows of swords. After returning home and taking a medicinal bath, Li Ziye began to practice his sword again. Under the moon, the afterimages were like ghosts.
The sword, which is sometimes fast and sometimes slow, and the shadow, which is sometimes fast and sometimes slow, interweave a sky of sword energy in the night.
"Hongzhu, why don't you persuade Mr. Li?"
Under the porch, Hibiscus glanced at the woman who was eating preserved fruit next to her, and said worriedly, "His injuries are very serious. Two days of medicinal bath will not have much effect at all."
"I can't persuade you."
Hongzhu ate a piece of persimmon cake and replied, "If you are injured, you will not use your true energy to practice. If you are not injured, you will practice to death. This is how he has been here all along."
"I'm worried that he will follow the same path as the prince." Mu Jin sighed softly and reminded.
"Won't."
Hongzhu shook his head and responded, "Sister Hibiscus can rest assured that Xiao Ziye is the shrewdest speculator. He will clearly calculate the pros and cons of everything. For example, tonight's sword practice, he must feel that in the end Only when the benefits are greater than the side effects of the injury will he practice. In his words, this is called investment. You may not see the benefits now, but over the years, quantitative changes will lead to qualitative changes."
After hearing this, Mu Jin fell silent. After a moment, she said, "I'm so tired."
"We feel tired, but he doesn't."
Hongzhu said, "This is his specialty, something engraved in his bones. For him, it is very simple."
"I don't understand." Hibiscus responded softly.
"Just like Sister Mujin, you are practicing martial arts. Entering the Five Realms is just a matter of course. However, for Xiao Ziye, it is a lot of hardships."
Hongzhu explained patiently, "Everyone has their own strengths and weaknesses. If you choose the right one, you will get twice the result with half the effort. If you choose the wrong one, you will get twice the result with half the effort."
"Then Professor Li is not suitable for learning martial arts, so why should he take this path?" Mu Jin asked in confusion.
"Because this is a world where strength is respected."
Hongzhu said calmly, "Force can deal with unplanned variables, just like when Xiao Ziye went to Mobei four years ago, he almost died there. But this time you go to the polar night world, it is undeniable , Xiao Ziye and Prince Wen’s wisdom played a decisive role, but Prince Wen’s powerful force is the key to the final decision.”
After listening to the explanation of the woman beside her, Mu Jin nodded thoughtfully.
She seemed to understand somewhat.
"Sister Hibiscus, I will arrange for you to leave the city in a few days."
Hongzhu said with a gentle face, "You know, Xiao Ziye is a very cautious person and never trusts others easily, just like Yu Qingxuan from the Buyi Palace. Xiao Ziye has known her for four years and has never really trusted her. But Sister Hibiscus is an exception.
At this point, Hongzhu paused and continued, "Although you have known each other for a short time, I can see that Xiao Ziye trusts you very much, sister. Regarding the matter of dragon energy in the ruins of Sazu, even the Li family, Not many people know about it, and the level of confidentiality is very high, but Xiao Ziye told his sister about it, which shows Xiao Ziye's trust in her sister."
"Maybe it's thanks to the prince."
Mu Jin responded softly, "Li Jiaoxi and the prince cherish each other and love each other as much as they love each other, so they will have more trust in me."
"No."
Hongzhu shook her head and said, "Sister Hibiscus, you don't understand Xiao Ziye at this point. He is not emotional. He trusts you just because of some of your own characteristics that he values and thinks you are worthy of trust."
"Tai Chi Jin, return to the original state!"
While the two were talking, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth surged into the middle of the inner courtyard. Liangyi opened an array. In the array, Li Ziye's footsteps were turning, his swords were moving side by side. Between the moves, yin and yang merged and turned into nothingness.
The next moment, in the Liangyi Formation, Li Ziye condensed the power of yin and yang with both palms, and the true energy around his body surged, and the thick air flow continued to spread.
"The secret of subduing the world, the match between yin and yang!"
The World-Suppressing Art reappears, attack and defense are perfectly combined, the power of yin and yang breaks through the sky, and the wind and clouds shake.
Under the porch, Hibiscus trembled slightly when she saw the extremely familiar moves.
At the same time, in the Jingmu Prison, Bai Wangyu stood quietly, with turbulent air currents all over his body. As he stepped, his palms channeled the power of heaven and earth, forming a perfect circle.
The same moves, different methods of execution, awe-inspiring and upright.
The night was long and passed gradually.
The next day, it was dawn.
In the Taixue Palace, when Chang Yu was about to go to the Sutra Pagoda, a Taixue student walked over quickly and handed over a letter. He said politely, "Senior Brother Chang Yu, your letter."
"For me?"
Chang Yu was stunned for a moment, took the letter curiously, opened it and took a look, his face became a little embarrassed.
This seems a bit difficult.
Isn’t it too difficult for one person to spread so many words and cause such a big disturbance?
"Jiaoxi Li said that senior brother Chang Yu should believe in himself."
The imperial student who sent the letter said with a respectful expression, "Senior Brother Chang Yu, this little thing is easy to do."
"Really? Teacher Li really said that?" Chang Yu asked with an embarrassed look on his face.
"Yes." The imperial student who delivered the letter nodded.
"Okay, I'll try."
Chang Yu replied, somewhat unconfident in his heart.
Is he that powerful?
Half an hour later.
"What are you talking about? Senior brother was beaten in prison? Seriously injured? What, tortured?"
"My senior brother, no, we can't just sit there and wait for death. We must rescue senior brother."
"Yes, save Senior Brother!"
"It's not good, it's not good, senior brothers, have you heard? Senior brother can't bear the cold air in the cell. Now, his life is in danger, and his life may be in danger at any time."
"What, this happened? It must have been torture by officials, which made the senior brother weak. That's why the senior brother was let into the body by the evil cold energy. It's too much!"
An hour later.
All parties in the capital.
Figures rushed past one after another, starting to move around and send messages.
There are thousands of students in the Taixue Palace, including powerful princes, disciples of merchants, descendants of aristocratic families from all over the world, and even children of the royal family.
In short, the most important thing for the students of Taixue Palace is connections.
"Bai Wangyu was tortured? Was he maimed? How is that possible? Forget it, my son is about to make a big fuss. Let's find a way to rescue him first. It can also be considered as betraying Confucianism."
"Is your family like this? Mine is the same. My daughter is about to hang herself. My wife is trying to persuade her now. You said Jing Mu only killed an assassin, so why make such a fuss."
"Sir, master, it's not good, there are many people on the street heading to Jingmu Mansion, they seem to want to ask for Mr. Bai's life."
"People? Why are they joining in the fun?"
"It's not surprising. Confucian disciples usually help the common people carry firewood and water, ward off evil spirits and avoid disasters. They still have some status in the hearts of the people."
"Sir, the little princess of the Wang family in Guanshan has also gone to the Jingmu Mansion!"
"Sir, Princess Sisi from the Wang family in the east has also gone."
"Fuck you, Lao Mu, King Guanshan has gone to the Jingmu Mansion in person!"
