When the prince of Guilin County talked about practicing martial arts, the prince said with a look of shame: "Returning to my father, my son is extremely dull. Although he never dared to be lazy or slippery when practicing martial arts every day, he still studied hard and practiced hard. But this time he entered the country. Not only has it not made rapid progress, but it has been making little progress. In the past two years, it has even stagnated. My son is incompetent, so he must be severely punished by his father."
When talking about martial arts training, the prince looked depressed. He didn't know why, but he never dared to slack off in his daily practice. Although we can’t say that we practice Sanfu in the summer and Sanjiu in the winter, we still practice diligently every day. Things were fine in the past. Although there was not much progress, there was still some progress. But in the past two years, not only has there been no progress, but the older I get, the more there is a tendency to regress.
The guards around him now are all his father's people. But as the dignified prince of Guilin County, he has no confidants in the mansion. I also know that practicing martial arts well is not only a way to save my life, but also can really save my life at critical moments, so I am really willing to work hard, but there is not much progress.
Seeing his son who looked ashamed, the Prince of Guilin shook his head, sighed softly and said: "Forget it, since there is no progress, don't practice any more. Over the past hundred years, the Prince of Guilin's Palace has had its fair share of strange people. , there are many people with extraordinary intelligence. But in terms of martial arts, except for your seventh aunt, no one has made any progress in this area due to meridians. "
"Most people can only be regarded as third-rate martial arts practitioners throughout their lives. Don't be too disappointed. This may be God's will. God has given us descendants of the Guilin County Prince's Palace smart minds, but not the physical fitness to practice martial arts. You martial arts There is no progress in learning, which may be God's will. It's just a pity that the martial arts secrets that our ancestors painstakingly collected during their battles in the world are gone."
"Originally, I thought that finding the Shaolin Temple to cleanse the marrow and Yijin Sutra can improve this situation. Those thieves in Shaolin were too cunning and cunning. When they saw that the Shaolin Temple was not guarding, they actually sent people to take the two sutras and leave early. . In those days, our ancestors almost turned the entire Shaolin Temple upside down and could not find these two wonderful books."
"Without these two basic internal martial arts training books, what's the use of the remaining boxing scriptures and sword manuals? Since I inherited the throne, in order to change the situation in which your brothers are restricted in martial arts, I have been secretly practicing martial arts for many years. Looking for it. Unfortunately, after more than twenty years, I only found the incomplete "Yi Jin Jing" from the hands of a disabled old monk in a temple on Fujian Road."
"The more superior "Marrow Cleansing Sutra" has never been found. If you can't find the "Marrow Cleansing Sutra", you can't change the physique passed down from your ancestors. The martial arts secrets in the mansion will only allow you brothers to learn how to do it. It's just the skill of a three-legged cat. Maybe this is God's will. God doesn't want any great master to appear in the Guilin County Prince's Palace."
After sighing for a long time, the King of Guilin County waved his hand and said with some disappointment: "You put other things at hand aside for a while. During this period of time in the capital, you will focus your main energy on negotiating with Prince Liang. . Again, when you meet the King of Liang, you must be more careful. You must not let the court notice anything, and you must be more careful about the King of England."
"From my perspective, the King of England is definitely not a simple person. Judging from his actions, his depth of scheming, ruthless means, perseverance in character, and decisiveness in dealing with matters are even higher than those of the current emperor. The rest of the princes , even worse than that. Of those four sons from the middle palace, isn’t that one cunning and cunning?”
"Although we have reached the point where we are today, there are different reasons. But at the root of it, it has something to do with the King of England. Especially the downfall of King Shu is inseparable from the King of England. . We have been unable to put a nail in his British palace. Otherwise, I will not agree to this marriage. You must be very careful and he must not find out the clues. "
"Okay, I have talked to you so much today, and I am a little tired. You go down and have a rest. You go back and think about how to discuss with the King of Liang. And the King of England, this King I feel that maybe he will become my biggest and most difficult enemy in the future. Such a person really makes me have trouble sleeping and eating."
After the prince looked at himself and said these words, he stopped talking. Instead, his father, who had his eyes closed and didn't know what he was thinking, hurriedly patted his chest and assured: "Please rest assured, father, my son will definitely do his best and will never let his father down. The son will come up with a strategy when he returns. Come, I must satisfy my father and let him get what he wants."
Regarding the prince's assurance, the Guilin County Prince just smiled faintly. As a father, he naturally knows how much oil and water there is in his son's belly. Whether or not his guarantee is guaranteed is no different to the King of Guilin. He said that he would leave the negotiation with Beiliao to the Crown Prince, but only he himself knew whether he actually did.
So he didn't even listen to half of the prince's assurance just now. When the prince patted his chest and reassured him, he was really distracted. Turning his head to look at a jade jar made entirely of Hetian white jade on the bookshelf, a strange smile suddenly appeared on the face of the Duke of Guilin. His mouth sounded like he was talking to others, but also like a person talking to himself.
"You were so ruthless to me back then and killed my son. But you probably never thought that I was not as ruthless and unjust as you. Not only did you raise your daughter, but you also sent her to The position of prince and concubine. If she is lucky, she may even be able to sit on the position of queen for two years. This is an honor that none of my biological daughters have received."
"So, I think I have a deep affection for you. Maybe a hundred years from now, if you and I can still see each other underground, you and your nerdy husband who you will never forget will still be grateful to me. Yeah. No, I am your real husband. That nerd who has nothing but bookishness is not your husband."
"I was so obsessed with you at the beginning, and I can say that I gave you the best things in the world. But I didn't expect that you would never forget that nerd, and you would kill the son you gave me for him? Why, why are you doing this? How do you treat me? What have I not given you? Apart from letting you go, as long as you open your mouth, I will even pluck the stars from the sky for you."
"Do you know how much your appearance and body fascinate me? I have never treated any woman the way I treat you. Even if you are married, even if you have a daughter, I will not I have disliked you. The two years I had you were the happiest days for me. The pride that the person who got you brought me is even more than the pride I have for inheriting the throne."
The Prince of Guilin, who seemed to be reminded of unpleasant memories in the past, sighed for a long time facing the candlelight in front of him. It wasn't until the guard's report came from outside that things gradually stabilized. Looking at the person he allowed to come in, the Prince of Guilin, who had calmed down, took a sip of tea and said in a calm tone: "Are you back?"
Although his tone was extremely dull, when the people who came in heard his dull tone, their expressions changed slightly, and cold sweat broke out on their foreheads. He hurriedly said with a somewhat frightened voice: "To return to the master, my subordinate has completed the errand you ordered back then, and came back specially to report to the master."
In response to this man's answer, the Prince of Guilin put down the tea cup in his hand. He stood up and looked at the person kneeling respectfully in front of him. He turned around and looked at the jade pot that was the size of a teapot that he had been staring at just now. After a long time, he said: "Really? All the errands I gave you back then were all Completed? Then tell me carefully, what did the king tell you back then?"
Upon hearing the question from the King of Guilin, the man quickly kowtowed and said, "Returning to the master, I have never forgotten the master's instructions back then. When the master ordered his subordinates to go undercover in the Prince of Shu's Mansion, he told his subordinates again and again." Most of the princes' qualifications are mediocre. In terms of talent and ability, only the fourth son from the middle palace is barely outstanding."
"You ordered your subordinates to assist the King of Shu in dealing with the prince and the older kings. You provoked internal fighting in the royal family, even killed each other, and used all means to get rid of the fourth son from the middle palace, as well as the outstanding princes. Now that the three kings of Jing, Duan, and Shu who came from the middle palace are dead, it will be a matter of time before the remaining prince is deposed. The errands you assigned to your subordinates can now be considered completed."
In response to this man's answer, there was no smile on the face of Guilin County Prince, but he asked coldly: "Really? Then I ask you, is the King of Shu really dead? And that King of England?" What's going on? Why have you been unable to get rid of him even though he has been out of the palace for nearly a year? You still let him become so strong that it is a foregone conclusion that he will replace the prince. "
"Do you know that with the methods shown by the King of England now, he is much better than the prince who only cares about playing with men and has no more than average qualifications. That prince is as stupid as a pig but only knows how to be arrogant. The King of Song is even more different. Once he is really made the crown prince, he will become the most difficult opponent for me to deal with."
After the Guilin County Prince finished speaking, the man suddenly broke out in cold sweat. He hurriedly kowtowed and said: "Master, whether the King of Shu is really dead, although my subordinates have not seen it with my own eyes. But judging from the fact that my subordinates have been with him for many years and have a good grasp of him, he really committed suicide. King of Shu Although he is fierce and cunning, his temperament is extremely arrogant."
"He knew the consequences of framing the two kings and killing Prince Duan and his family with his own hands. He knew even more clearly that once the emperor knew these things, he would never spare him. In terms of his personality, it would be better to be deposed by the emperor. Being imprisoned as a commoner is better than death. And Princess Jing's entry into Beijing also means that it is difficult to hide those things about him, so he did."
"As for the King of England, master, there was no such person on the list you originally gave to your subordinates. But after he left the palace, his subordinates followed the master's original intention and tried to do some tricks. Just after he left the palace, Soon, his subordinates encouraged the King of Shu to take advantage of the conflict between him and the prince to kill two birds with one stone, which could not only get rid of him, but also create a huge dilemma for the prince."
"It's a pity that I didn't expect that God would not bless me. Under the siege of so many killers, the King of England was able to save his life and escaped with luck. And what my subordinates didn't expect was that he was attacked by you. The carefully selected strange poison was actually able to survive. Since then, my subordinates have been trying to kill people with a borrowed knife, and even bewitched the King of Shu to use his most important chess pieces in the army."
"But I didn't expect that every time I failed, it aroused the King of Shu's suspicion of his subordinates. He even prepared to kill and silence his subordinates together. The reason why the subordinates could not see with their own eyes whether the King of Shu was really dead was also It is precisely because the actions against the King of England have repeatedly failed. The subordinates were incompetent and failed to get rid of the King of England, so they asked the master to punish him severely."
