Without enough time to feel the shock, Li Xian quickly bowed and saluted.
When a creature like the emperor appears, everyone around him becomes shorter. The Tang Dynasty did not like to kneel down, but this only refers to courtiers. The slaves still had to kneel on both knees to worship, while Xu Ze and others had to kneel on one knee as a military salute.
"Get back on your feet, you guys, step back."
He said it to everyone, but he said it to the palace guards.
Although the emperor arrived secretly, the Qianniu Guards still had to follow him closely. No matter where the emperor went, it was an iron rule that the Qianniu Guards would take over the defense of this place.
After the palace guards stood up, they retreated. They wanted to guard outside the palace. As the leader, Xu Ze stayed.
Straightening up, Li Xian secretly looked at this powerful emperor who was despised by too many people.
It is now the second year of the Yuan Dynasty, and Li Zhi is only forty-eight years old. Forty-eight years old is obviously still considered a prime man, but Li Zhi doesn't look like he is at all in his prime.
My waist is a bit stooped, my lumbar spine is not good, my voice is a bit muffled, and my lung function is not very good. The sedan obviously stopped at the door of the backyard, and he had only walked a few steps, but there was already sweat on his forehead, which showed that he was very weak.
As for the clear white hair between the temples, it is not certain whether it is caused by the body or sadness.
He is obviously an emperor and rules this powerful country, but who would have thought that he would be like this.
Ever since Li Xian raised his head, he had been immersed in his own thoughts. It was obviously regretful, but in the eyes of others, it looked more like King Yong was grieving for the emperor's body.
Li Zhi also saw Li Xian's expression. Originally, his body was a taboo issue, and the courtiers would have to ask questions if they asked him about it. However, it is different for Li Xian.
At this moment, Li Zhi clearly discovered that his son's filial piety was not a lie. After being the emperor for so many years, if he didn't have this bit of eyesight, he felt that he could gouge out his eyes.
"Don't look at it. Your imperial brother is not blessed. I have experienced such tragedies in the world as a white-haired person sending a black-haired person. I have not collapsed. I have been tempered by God."
Hearing Li Zhi's voice, Li Xiancai pulled away from his regrets and bent down to salute again. The word "Father" appeared before he pinched it out: "Aye, I know that you are grieving about my brother." , but for the sake of all the people in the world, and for the sake of your children and ministers who are still alive, you should also take care of your body."
Li Zhi was stunned for a moment by the name Aye. To be honest, he hadn't heard this title for a long time and it was already a bit unfamiliar to him.
But now he is not in public, nor in the court. Calling him Aye is much closer than "Father". At least to Li Zhi's ears, he liked this "Aye" very much.
Stepping forward to help Li Xian up, Li Zhi said with a wry smile: "It's easy to say, but you are my younger brother, how can you understand my feelings. However, I still have a filial piety for you, so I won't talk about you."
When helping Li Xian, Li Zhi keenly noticed the marks on his arm.
Although he felt a little distressed, he was very aware of the weight of the scar, so he pretended not to see it.
I walked to the Zhiyun Ladder and took a look at what this thing actually looked like.
Although he really wanted to try it, his body did not allow it, which made Li Zhi very regretful.
Looking back, Li Zhi said: "Two Qings, aren't you curious? Now that you've seen it, why not give it a try?"
Only then did Li Xian discover that there were two generals dressed differently from Qianniuwei, who also followed the emperor in.
Hearing the saint's words, Cheng Wuting and Su Qingjie laughed loudly and walked to the front of the Zhiyun Ladder.
When Li Yun and Xu Ze tried it just now, they also took a peek. Naturally they knew how to use this thing, so they started trying it one by one.
Li Yong, on the other hand, quietly walked up to Li Xian and whispered softly: "Your Highness, the one with the longer beard is General Zuo Wuwei and Pingyuan County Gong Cheng Wuting. The other one is Zuo Xiao General Wei and Duke Su Qingjie of Xing."
After hearing what Li Yun said, Li Xian already knew who these two people were.
Cheng Wuting, the son of the famous general Cheng Mingzhen. Su Qingjie, the son of the famous general Su Dingfang.
The titles of these two people were inherited, but because of their seniority, they were able to convince the public. Therefore, he can inherit the influence of his father's generation and still serve as the leader in the military. As for the fact that the titles of the two of them have not decreased, that is a blessing. But it is worthy of the emperor to send this grace, which shows that the two of them are still worth it.
Sure enough, the first time they went up the Zhiyun Ladder, not only did the two of them feel familiar, they were even like Li Yun and Xu Ze, walking back and forth like monkeys, looking extremely relaxed.
From fast to slow, until finally unable to hold on and falling, their expressions gradually changed from joy to solemnity.
After falling to the ground and resting for a short while, the two stood up.
Cheng Wuting cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, I have tried it and found that this method of exercise is a great test for the arms. If the training time is long, it can also enhance a person's climbing ability. Your Majesty, you can imagine, if The army specially selects some people who are good at climbing to train in this subject, and when encountering battle situations that require climbing over city gates..."
Needless to say, seeing is believing. Just by looking at it, you can understand the specialness of this training method.
Li Zhi nodded, looked at the barbell parts scattered on the ground, and asked Li Xian: "Now that these things are here, show me how to use them. Cheng Aiqing and Su Aiqing are also very curious."
curious?
Li Xian had already guessed what happened. Obviously, the general supervisor reported what happened here to the emperor, but the emperor didn't know what he thought, so he called two generals to watch together. This means treating these things as treasures.
Although he wanted to kick Yan Jize, Li Xian did not show any impatience. Instead, he walked to the pile of barbell parts and started assembling the barbell.
There is no thread production process, but the craftsmen of the Tang Dynasty are not vegetarians. After the three discus are stuck in place, they are strung together with only one iron bar and they are very strong. This is the mortise and tenon process.
There were a total of six discus on both sides. After it was installed, Li Xian couldn't wait to lift it up and try it out.
I can lift it once I try, but if I want to carry it, it is just a dream.
People are like this, they always make choices beyond their capabilities.
Seeing Li Xian lifting the barbell at a loss, Li Zhi rolled his eyes. He had already guessed what happened.
He pointed at Cheng Wuting and then at Li Xian.
Cheng Wuting, who understood the emperor's intention, immediately walked over and said with a smile: "Your Highness, this thing has not been tested yet. I don't know whether it is dangerous or not. Let the general do it for me."
This is the art of speech. After listening to Cheng Wuting's words, Li Xian was not angry at all. If you haven't exposed it yet, why don't you just get off the road quickly?
Putting down the barbell, Li Xian said: "You need to carry this thing on your shoulders, then squat down with this thing, get up again, squat down, and get up again. Let's do this, if you can do fifty, I will use this barbell For you."
