Because there are no more difficult nights, when you wake up in the morning, you won’t feel sore all over and it takes a while to get into the state. Therefore, Li Xian naturally believed that the training had an effect.
Li Yun is still dedicated to his duties like a stone lion. You can see him when you open the door.
"Your Highness, breakfast is ready. It's the steamed pie you asked the cook to make."
Glancing at Li Yun, Li Xian said dissatisfiedly: "Steamed pie, that's called a steamed bun, steamed buns, and steamed buns are all round and flat. You see, if they are so bulging, they can be called cakes!"
Li Yun chuckled and said, "Baozi, Baozi, whatever your Highness calls it, it will be called that."
Ignoring Li Yong, Li Xian walked towards the room next to the study while doing breast enlargement exercises.
This is now his dining room. Although it is boring to eat alone, it is obvious that protesting will have no effect. The process of poison testing is essential, and even the person watching you eat must be a loyal person.
At this point, Li Yun obviously would not give in, even if he was just a slave.
After all, he cut off a huge piece of beef in the imperial dining room. Steamed buns stuffed with beef and green onions, when you eat them at this time, you even feel like you are shortening your life.
Glancing at Li Yong, who was standing aside with an expressionless face, and then at the buns in the steamer, Li Xian picked up two and threw them away without thinking.
Li Yun hurriedly caught it, ignoring the soup spilled from the gap, and said anxiously: "Your Highness, this is steamed, no, this bun..."
When he couldn't speak any more, when he saw His Highness frowning, Li Yun quickly shut up and slipped to the side with the bun in hand.
In Li Yun's absence, Xu Ze was the one who came in to report the matter.
"Your Highness, outside the palace gate, General Manager Jiang Hao came with a man, saying that he is the archery master that your Majesty has found for you. Look..."
casually leaving two more buns to Xu Ze, Li Xian said casually: "Let him come in."
After catching the bun, he glanced at Li Yun who came out from behind the curtain with a satisfied look. Xu Ze smiled, stuffed the bun into his mouth in two bites, and walked out to pass it on to others.
Methods to win over people's hearts are necessary, and it doesn't matter whether they are deliberate or not.
Soon, Xu Ze brought people over.
After taking a look at the dark-faced man who walked into the room, Li Xian covered the steamer, asked Li Yun to take it, and asked: "Are you the archery master that my father specially found for me? It seems that your archery skills must be Is the Tang Dynasty top?"
The black-faced man clasped his fists and saluted: "Xue Na, the city gate man, pays homage to His Highness King Yong. The top name in the Tang Dynasty is not suitable for humble positions. There are countless people in the Tang army who are good at this. Some unknown people may be even more powerful than the humble positions. , Your Highness should stop looking down on your humble position."
Xue Na? A sense of familiarity emerged in his mind, but Li Xian couldn't remember why he was familiar with this name.
Seeing this guy's humble words, Li Xian couldn't help but think of taking a test in school. Under normal circumstances, only truly capable people would be so humble. The teacher assigned by the emperor himself cannot be of average skill!
After all, unlike Li Yun and Xu Ze, this guy will be able to truly claim the title of his teacher in the future.
City gatekeeper? How could an ordinary city gatekeeper be sent by the emperor to be a teacher for the prospective prince?
With a slight cough, Li Xian said: "Xue Na, right? Although my martial arts arena has not been expanded yet, it is still no problem to temporarily get two targets. I have just finished breakfast and cannot exercise yet. During this period, just watch How are your archery skills?"
Xue Ne chuckled and agreed.
With a wave of his hand, Xu Ze led Xue Ne toward the martial arts arena.
After the two left, Li Xian asked Li Yun: "Who is this guy? A city gatekeeper? Is he a liar?"
Li Yun chuckled and came closer before saying: "Your Highness, don't underestimate the city gatekeepers. There are many city gatekeepers in Chang'an, but they have to be divided into places. If there are Zhuque Gate, Changle Gate, etc., then It’s not worth mentioning, but what if this guy is the gatekeeper of Danfeng Sect?”
"What? Danfengmen?"
Li Xian was startled, where is Danfengmen? Both Zhuque Gate and Changle Gate are located over the Taiji Palace. The palaces there are not of much use now. Even if a city gatekeeper is set up, it will only be in name only.
However, Danfeng Gate is different. As a place where civil and military ministers must pass through, there is no problem in saying that Danfeng Gate is a key point of the Daming Palace.
For positions in such a key position, one cannot rely on rank.
"What is this guy's origin? Xue? It can't be the descendant of Xue Wanjun and Xue Wanche. Could it be..."
Li Yun chuckled and said, "Since Your Highness has guessed it, do you still have any doubts about his archery skills?"
Li Xian shook his head decisively.
Xue Rengui's son, Xue Rengui has past deeds such as shooting three arrows to the Tianshan Mountains. It is hard to live up to his reputation. Li Xian would never believe that his son did not have two archery brushes.
That's right, only the son of a guy of Xue Rengui's level would be appointed by the emperor to be the gatekeeper of Danfeng Gate. Even though he is just a minor official from the seventh rank, the actual status of officials below the fourth rank is not comparable to him.
"Take the steamer, let's go to the back and take a look."
Calling Li Yong, Li Xian walked toward the martial arts arena.
It was originally a decorative martial arts field, but now it had to be expanded, and Xue Ne had already completed his warm-up and was waiting at the side of the martial arts field with a quiver on his back.
More than a hundred steps across from him, Xu Ze had set up a target.
I used to think that archery was no big deal. I just nocked the arrow, drew the bow, aimed it, and shot it.
At most, just count the influence of the wind and the fall of the arrow.
However, seeing the actual archery scene today, Li Xian realized how difficult this thing is.
At a distance of more than a hundred steps, the target didn't look very big. At this time, it was purely the support of experience that allowed the arrow to hit the target.
When King Yong arrived, Xue Ne chuckled, pointed at the target in the distance and said, "What do you think of this distance, Your Highness?"
Seeing is believing, Li Xian didn't know how difficult this distance was for Xue Ne, but if he went up, he wouldn't be able to hit the target, let alone hit the target.
Nodding, Li Xian said: "Xue Na, I will set a target for you. If you can shoot ten arrows at this distance and hit eight of the bullseyes, I will give you this cage bun. If you hit all, I will What do you think of calling you Master Xue?"
Xue Na smiled and said: "Master Xue doesn't dare to take the job, but what is the bun that His Highness mentioned? I am very curious about the humble position, so Ba Jian, the humble position has to be decided."
After saying that, without seeing how he acted, he took out an arrow from the quiver on his back, drew the bow and shot it.
This relaxed look is as simple as breathing.
