Xing'er was naturally extremely surprised. She didn't expect Princess Gaodan to recognize her sword technique at a glance, and said, "Princess has a sharp eye, and she immediately saw that I was using the Yandang sword technique."
Gao Dan smiled slightly and said, "It's nothing. I just heard the palace guards talk about the swordsmanship of various schools, so I can guess it right." While everyone was chatting, Mrs. Lin came over and said that the banquet was ready. Invite everyone to the banquet.
In the afternoon, the princess immediately bid farewell to Mrs. Lin. Mrs. Lin asked Liangchen to send the princess back to her mansion, and gave some special instructions. Liangchen nodded and followed the princess out of the teahouse.
Feiyun came to Liangchen's room, only to find that she and Meimei had gone out. He went to find Tianxiang and saw Tianxiang practicing swordsmanship in the back garden. He didn't want to disturb Tianxiang, so he came to visit Lian'er instead.
Feiyun felt distressed when he saw that Lian'er's face was pale and she had lost a lot of weight, so she asked: "Lian'er, are you tired? Don't talk too much for now. If Ling Liming is okay for the time being, I'll send you back to rest for a while. Okay?"
Seeing that Feiyun cared about her, Lian'er felt very happy, so she nodded and said: "I just gave Lingli acupuncture, just take care of Ruhua. I am indeed a little tired, so I will go back to rest first. If anything happens, Ruhua will take care of me." Come and call me." After saying that, Lian'er stood up slowly. Feiyun stepped forward to help her into her room.
Feiyun helped Lian'er to the bed and asked her to lie down. Lian'er put a pillow on her back, sat on the bed, and asked Feiyun to sit next to her. Feiyun was afraid that she would be angry, so he had no choice but to obey her orders. Lian'er breathed a long sigh of relief and stared at Feiyun for a while before saying: "Last time, sister Liangchen said that you have a unique way of treating internal injuries. What is it like? Can you pass it on to me? I can do it in the future More people have been treated with this method.”
Feiyun hesitated for a moment and said: "There is indeed such a mental method. It's just...just...it can't be used casually, and it's not convenient to teach it to you."
Lian'er asked strangely: "Why?" Feiyun was naturally inconvenient to tell her this special mental method truthfully. After thinking for a long time, he said: "This mental method requires both parties to be connected, otherwise it is easy to go crazy. Your study If you have learned martial arts and don’t have much internal strength, you won’t be able to learn it. Besides, your medical skills are superb, so you really didn’t bother to learn this.”
Lian'er saw that Feiyun was hesitant and secretive, and knew that he had not told her the truth. Lian'er is kind-hearted, gentle and considerate, so she will naturally not force Feiyun, so she asked: "I just checked Ruyi's injuries and saw that her internal injuries have healed. Did you use this mental method on her?"
Feiyun thought that with Lian'er's medical skills, he would naturally be able to find clues. If he deceived her, he would definitely make her disappointed and sad. Feiyun had no choice but to nod and admit that this was indeed the case.
Lian'er then asked Liu Feiyun to let her watch from the sidelines the next time he used this method. Feiyun was shocked and refused. Lian'er's face darkened and she asked: "What kind of mental method is this? It's fine if you can't pass it on to me. Isn't it okay to look at it no matter what?"
Feiyun was embarrassed and didn't know how to explain it for a while. He lowered his head and thought for a long time before saying, "Sister, don't be angry. I promised others that my inner thoughts will not be revealed. You don't want me to be a broken promise, right?" Lian After hearing this, the child was immediately speechless.
Seeing that Lian'er was in a depressed mood, Liu Shui hurriedly changed the subject and said, "Lian'er, I think you are too tired. How about I give you some of my inner strength?" Lian'er was soft-hearted after all. Seeing that Liu Shui was deliberately trying to please her, she knew He had no choice but to nod. Liu Shui was overjoyed and hurriedly asked Lian'er to sit cross-legged. He himself sat cross-legged opposite him, then stretched out his palms for Lian'er to raise them against each other. After the four palms were pressed together, Liu Shui slowly exerted his inner strength. About half an hour later, Lian'er inhaled Liu Shui's internal energy, regained a lot of energy, and her face became rosy. When Liu Shui saw this, he immediately stopped and stood up. Lian'er had no internal strength, so he didn't dare to input too much, lest Lian'er get hurt.
At this moment, Hongying came to Liu Shui and said she had something to discuss with him. Liu Shui asked Lian'er to lie down and have a good rest, and then left the room with Hongying and went to the garden. Hongying smiled and asked Liu Shui what he was doing in Lian'er's room. Is there any ulterior motive? Liu Shui was afraid that she would misunderstand, so he hurriedly told Hongying what happened. Hongying pursed her lips and smiled and said, "Don't be nervous. Since I can accept one, I won't mind one more. Lian'er has excellent medical skills and a kind heart. I hope she can stay with you for a long time."
Liu Shui said awkwardly: "Ying'er, please stop teasing me. Is there anything urgent you want to do with me?" Hongying said: "I just came back from Zuixianju, and I came here to tell you the result. My aunt originally refused to agree, so I It took a lot of effort to convince her. But she asked me to tell you that if you bully me in the future, she will not forgive you." It turned out that after Hongying arrived at Zuixianju, she told the story about Princess Yanmei, including Xiang was immediately furious and wanted to come to Liu E to argue.
Hongying hurriedly tried to persuade her, saying that she was willing and was not forced to agree. Hanxiang still refused, so Hongying tried to persuade Hanxiang to relax. But Hanxiang insisted that Hongying's status could not be changed. Hongying told Hanxiang Liu E's intention, and Hanxiang reluctantly agreed. Hanxiang actually knew in Tanzhou that Yanmei was interested in Liu Shui, and he didn't really object. Having one more person to take care of Liu Shui is not a bad thing for Liu Shui and Hongying.
But what Hanxiang is most worried about is Hongying's status. After all, Yanmei is a princess and a relative of the emperor. She was afraid that Yanmei would bully Hongying, so she asked Hongying to tell Liu Shui. Liu Shui naturally assured that Hongying was the most important person in his heart. Before the two of them finished speaking, Mei Mei came over and asked them to go to the hall, saying that Liu E wanted to see them for something. The two hurriedly came to the hall, only to see that Liangchen had returned.
When Liu E saw Liu Shui, Hongying, and Meimei coming in, she said to Liangchen: "Liangchen, you can now tell us in detail the results of going to Gaofu!" Liangchen cleared his throat and told everyone the situation. After sending Yanmei back to Gaofu in a good time, she met Gao Junbao and his wife again. Liangchen directly explained to them Liu E's intention to propose marriage to the Gao family on Liu Shui's behalf, and asked them to agree to marry Princess Yanmei to Liu Shui. Gao Junbao and his wife had already guessed what Liangchen meant from her behavior yesterday and today, so they were not surprised.
Liu Jinding glanced at Yanmei, who was blushing and bowing her head silently, and asked quietly: "Meier, what do you mean?" Yanmei hesitated for a moment, and then replied shyly: "It all depends on the father and mother. ." Liu Jinding understood and knew that his daughter had already been willing. With her charming personality, if she doesn't want to, she will definitely object. Liu Jinding said to Gao Junbao again: "Husband, I think Liu Shaoxia is a good character. What do you think?" When Gao Junbao heard that Liu Shui was Liu E's nephew, he understood why the prince valued and trusted Liu Shui so much. Naturally, Gao Junbao and his wife already knew about the relationship between Zhao Yuankan and Liu E. Being able to become an in-law with the prince is naturally beneficial to the Gao family.
Gao Junbao then asked: "Miss Liangchen, why didn't His Royal Highness or Madam come to propose marriage in person?" On the way here, Liangchen had already thought that Gao Junbao and his wife must have asked this question, so she said unhurriedly: "The prince and his wife came to propose marriage in person?" You should be very aware of Madam's situation. You two must be well aware of the current situation in the court. At this time, the Crown Prince and Madam really do not come forward to speak out. Therefore, what the Crown Prince and Madam mean is that, whether you agree or not, , all must be kept secret. When the time is right, the prince will definitely propose marriage to the prince and his wife in person. "
Gao Junbao understood what the prince meant. Zhao Yuankan would only propose marriage in person after he succeeded to the throne and when the overall situation was decided. When Gao Junbao saw that neither Liu Jinding nor Yanmei refused, he naturally understood that their mother and daughter had agreed. Gao Junbao didn't want to publicly have any special relationship with the prince at this time. Gao Junbao made up his mind and said, "In that case, let's wait until the right time." Liangchen was overjoyed when he saw that he didn't refuse, and immediately said, "Of course."
Gao Junbao then asked about Liu Shui's visit to Yang's house, and Liangchen didn't hide it and told them the truth. Gao Junbao then said: "What the Yang family did is also normal. If you want to get close to the Yang family, there is a way." Liangchen knew from Gao Junbao's words and expression just now that there was no problem with the Gao family. But for the Yang family, Liangchen hasn't thought of any good solution yet. When she heard this, she hurriedly asked: "My lord, what can I do?" Gao Junbao said: "As long as someone does something for the Yang family, the Yang family will definitely be grateful to that person." Liangchen didn't know why, so he asked Gao Junbao to say clear.
Gao Junbao then told Liangchen that during the Battle of Golden Beach, the Yang family's Dalang, Erlang and Sanlang sacrificed their lives for the country. Later, Yang Laolinggong also died in the battle. Yang Laolinggong's ashes were originally in the Liao Kingdom, and the Yang family sent someone to secretly bring them back. However, the Yang family did not find the ashes of the other three people. Over the years, the Yang family has never forgotten this and sent people to sneak into the Liao Kingdom many times, but returned without success. If someone can retrieve the ashes of the three people for them, they will undoubtedly gain the trust and closeness of the Yang family. At that time, if you ask them for help with something, they will definitely not refuse. Liangchen was secretly happy and hurriedly said goodbye and returned.
After Liu Shui heard this, he immediately told Liu E that he would go to Liao Kingdom to complete the matter for the Yang family. However, Liu E told Liu Shui not to be impatient and wait until the Crown Prince came to discuss the matter together. Liu E then asked Hongying what her aunt's opinion was. Hongying told Liu E truthfully, and Liu E was overjoyed. Not long after, night fell and Zhao Yuankan arrived in a hurry.
Liu E told him the attitudes of the Gao family and the Yang family, and asked about the Yang family's old affairs. Zhao Yuankan nodded and said it was indeed the case. Liu Shui immediately told him his plan to go to Liao and followed Zhao Yuankan's advice. Zhao Yuankan thought this move was too risky and did not agree. Zhao Yuankan felt that with the support of the Gao family, he was still sure of victory even without the support of the Yang family. Liu Shui insisted on going.
Zhao Yuankan persuaded: "In my estimation, these ashes must be in Youzhou and are strictly protected. After all, the Yang family has succeeded once last time and has never received any news since then. You are not familiar with the place where you lived in Youzhou. , it is difficult to succeed, and it may be dangerous." Liu Shui said: "Your Highness, I also have acquaintances in Youzhou. Have you forgotten Luohua?" Liu E interjected: "Of course we will not forget her. I just heard that Youzhou is also a large city with many residents. Where can you find her in the vast sea of people?"
Liu Shui replied: "Don't worry, aunt. Luohua told me where to find her before she left. I believe she will help me!" Liu E and Zhao Yuankan looked at each other and said in unison: "We don't agree on this. You will be suspicious. Since you are sure to find her, there is no need to worry about your safety. After all, Luohua grew up in Youzhou and must be able to protect you. If you insist on going, then go back quickly!" Liu Shui was overjoyed. , thanked both of them.
Zhao Yuankan also told Liu Shui that if there are difficulties, there is no need to take risks. In addition, Liu Shui could use this opportunity to observe whether the Liao Kingdom had any intention of invading the south. Liu Shui agreed one by one, and Hongying immediately said that she would go with him. Liu Shui shook his head and said: "Ying'er, you must stay. Last time we went to fight the White Lotus Sect, we didn't leave enough people at home, so someone took advantage of it. You will gain wisdom if you suffer. This time You can’t make a mistake.”
Hongying said: "There shouldn't be any big problem if you and I leave. I can ask my aunt to come here to take charge. You can rest assured, right?" Liu Shui shook his head and said: "Ying'er, on the contrary, I This time, I want to ask Aunt Xiang, Liangchen, and Meimei to go with me. Only if you stay at home can I rest assured." Hongying asked in confusion: "Why do you have to let my aunt go with you?"
Liu Shui explained: "Ying'er, have you forgotten that Aunt Xiang injured the Wang brothers and sisters? At that time, Wang Feng made it clear that he would find someone to compete with her in the next few days. Although Wang Feng and his wife will fight with us together Although he has passed the White Lotus Sect, he will definitely not give up because his children were injured. Wang Hao is also a lay disciple of Shaolin. Although Shaolin is a well-known and decent sect, he will definitely do it if he sends people to compete in martial arts to regain face. I I don’t want Aunt Xiang to continue to have grudges with them, so why not take this opportunity to let her leave the capital and avoid the limelight for a while!”
Hongying thought that this was true. With Hanxiang's character, if Shaolin came to her door, she would definitely accept the challenge. No matter who wins or loses, Liangzi will naturally become bigger and bigger. After listening to the conversation between the two, Zhao Yuankan said, "How about I send someone to the Golden Sword Sect and order them not to cause trouble?" Liu Shui shook his head and said, "This is inappropriate. After all, the Golden Sword Sect is contributing to the imperial court this time. , drove away the White Lotus Sect. Wang Feng was injured as a result, and his disciples suffered heavy casualties. If the government gives the order, it will only make them unhappy and also cause dissatisfaction among the people."
Liu E said: "I think Shui'er has a good idea, so don't try to persuade me." Liangchen said: "In this case, when we pass by the Shaolin Temple, why not explain it to them directly? There are many eminent monks in Shaolin, I believe They can still be reasonable." Liu Shui thought for a while and said, "We can give this a try."
