[Comprehensive] Taixu Sword Intent

Xiang Shaolong was stunned when he learned that he was going to compete with Wang Jian, a famous general who will go down in history, and he was stunned. He felt like the sky was falling, so he dragged his master Yuan Zong into the palace in a hurry the next morning. See you Yaoguang.

"Reverend Qingxu, is there a way for me to win?"

Facing Xiang Shaolong's urgent question, Yao Guang sized Xiang Shaolong up a few times, thinking that he was not yet proficient in archery and horse, so she could only sigh, "Unless Wang Jian broke his leg."

Xiang Shaolong: "..."

Yuanzong sighed, "I wanted to teach Shaolong slowly in riding and archery, but I didn't expect such a thing... If Shaolong loses to Wang Jian under the watchful eyes of everyone, even if Qingxu Zhenxu and Ji Caicai are willing to fight for Shaolong Talking about it, it will be difficult for Shaolong to keep his position as Grand Tutor."

Xiang Shaolong asked tentatively: "If I lose, what will be the big impact?"

Yao Guang sighed helplessly, Ji Yanran rested her forehead with one hand, and sighed softly: "Although there is only one word difference between Taifu and Shaofu, the meaning is very different, just like 'Queen' and 'Madam', even if there is only one step difference, it will always be the same. Worlds different."

Xiang Shaolong thought for a while before realizing that this "lady" refers to a concubine with a title. A queen and a concubine are the difference between a wife and a concubine.

Xiang Shaolong argued: "Of course I want to win, but if I only have some confidence in swordsmanship, now I have to compete in riding and archery. There is only seven days left. There is no way I can beat General Wang Jian!"

Ji Yanran wondered: "Wang Jian can't be called 'General' yet, Grand Tutor Xiang made a mistake. If Wang Bianjun took the position of Grand Tutor this time, maybe he will be called 'General' soon."

Xiang Shaolong immediately knew that he had made a slip of the tongue, Wang Jian, who is extremely famous in future generations, has not yet made his mark at this moment!He hastily coughed to cover it up, and said: "Master, Daoist Qingxu, talented girl Ji, is there any trick to ensure that I don't lose at least?"

Yuan Zong and Yao Guang shook their heads after thinking for a while.

Yuan Zong smiled wryly and said: "If you have practiced riding and archery for countless years, how can you be proficient? Wang Jian is very good at bow and horse, soaked in several cold and heat, Shaolong wants to surpass him within seven days, really..."

Yao Guang was also a little helpless, "Although I have learned riding skills, I can't be called proficient, and I am even more unfamiliar with bows and arrows."

Xiang Shaolong's heart sank.

He originally thought that he still had a lot of time to study, but who knew that such a challenger would appear suddenly, and he chose him to challenge!

……wrong.

The other party didn't deliberately embarrass him for personal reasons, but wanted the position of "Teacher".

Compared with positions such as "National Teacher" and "Grand Master", which have more false titles than real power, Tai Tuo also belongs to the family of military commanders, so it is naturally a great honor and a perfect springboard for those who come from martial arts backgrounds.Qingxu Zhenren and Ji Caicai are both famous people in the world, and they are both women. Even if they are talented and learned, they will not join the army.

As soon as Xiang Shaolong figured this out, he immediately understood why Ji Yanran would use "Queen" and "Madame" to compare "Teacher" and "Shao Fu". He felt very unwilling, if he lost, he would lose not only Not only the position of "Teacher", but also the loss of support for Zhao Pan, now there are two princes in Qin State, the position of prince has not yet been settled, the court is already surging, and he has no foundation like him , There is no one to rely on in the family, once you lose the honor and favor that King Qin looked at at the beginning, if you want to turn around in the future, I am afraid that you have to go to Lu Buwei!

Xiang Shaolong clenched his fists, and said in a hoarse voice: "... there is no way at all? Your Majesty is talking about a horse and archery swordsmanship competition. If you only lose a little in horseback archery, you can regain a victory in swordsmanship. There may still be hope."

Yao Guang was a little surprised, and looked at Yuan Zong quietly, Yuan Zong returned with a gratified look, shaking his head to show that he didn't tell him, Yao Guang couldn't help smiling.

"Xiang Taifu said that he has [-]% confidence in swordsmanship. It seems that Mozi's swordsmanship has been quite good during this time."

Yuan Zong replied with a smile: "Shaolong is born with great strength and dexterity, which is suitable for the essence of Mozi's swordsmanship, which uses defense as an offense. You only need to drag the opponent's energy down, and you will naturally win."

Xiang Shaolong's face was filled with unwillingness, and the thought of "I don't want to lose" was written all over his face.

Seeing this, Ji Yanran finally raised her eyebrows and smiled, and said softly: "If Mrs. Xiang is sure of winning the swordsmanship competition, the training on riding and archery...maybe Yanran can help a little bit."

Xiang Shaolong couldn't help looking up at Ji Yanran in astonishment, his eyes full of suspicion.

"Ji talented women are famous all over the world, but their riding and shooting skills..."

If it was Bai Qi and Lian Po who said they wanted to teach him horseback riding and archery, Xiang Shaolong would probably feel that it would be so ugly not to lose, but it was the talented Ji Yanran who recommended himself, so he really had to be puzzled.

Ji Yanran was not annoyed, she walked back with a smile, took a longbow from the weapon rack placed against the wall in the courtyard, and carried the quiver behind her back.Everyone thought that she would come back and find a target to shoot, but they didn't expect that when Ji Yanran turned around, the bow was already like a full moon, and the arrow was like a shooting star, coming through the sky.

An arrow brushed past Xiang Shaolong's neck and there was a buzzing sound, but he didn't realize it. When he regained consciousness, he subconsciously reached out to touch his neck, but his fingertips didn't touch any wound. He looked down. , the clothes on the shoulders are complete, but there is a dark silk thread broken from the break, and the two ends of the thread are tilted to the side.

Ji Yanran still stood at the same place, only put down her longbow, and said with a smile: "I took the embroidery thread on Taifu Xiang's shoulder with one arrow, do you know if I hit it?"

Xiang Shaolong opened his mouth in surprise.

What kind of eyesight and precision it must be to shoot off the embroidery thread of the same color as the dress at a distance of more than ten meters!

Ji Yanran already knew the answer from Xiang Shaolong's expression, her eyebrows were a little more proud, she walked over with a smile, and said: "My ancestors won the world with bows and horses, and I am the descendant, so naturally we can't fall too far behind. I don't know Yanran Can this kind of skill give Mr. Xiang more confidence? As for the riding competition, it is very likely that the two of you will compete immediately. When it comes to fighting on horseback, naturally you are the best in spear skills. Within seven days, Yan Ran will master the riding skills , archery, and spear skills are all taught, how much Xiang Taifu can learn is directly related to the result of the competition. Xiang Taifu, don't let Yanran down."

Xiang Shaolong's heart surged wildly, and he blurted out: "Ji talented girl actually has experience in riding and shooting spear?"

Ji Yanran's reputation as a "talented girl" is all over the world, but it's just a "talented name". Besides, she also has piano skills, flute skills, and swordsmanship, but it has never been said that Ji Yanran is also good at riding and shooting spears.Isn't spearmanship only learned by generals on the battlefield?

Ji Yanran curled up her mouth and smiled slightly, her eyes drifted towards Yao Guang, and she said with a smile: "Who hasn't hidden some skills? Taifu Xiang will never think that the only swordsmanship that is outstanding in real Qingxu is right?"

Yao Guang is famous for her swordsmanship, but she is also talented in literature. Xiang Shaolong knows this very well, so he has nothing to say for a while, and he can't help but admire that these two young women can make a difference in just a few short days. Years to master so many things.

Xiang Shaolong simply clasped his fists in salute: "Then please trouble Grand Master Ji."

Ji Yanran nodded happily.

"Teacher Xiang, Yan Ran has placed all of her chips on you. If you lose to Wang Jian, Yan Ran will never follow her."

Xiang Shaolong had no choice but to smile wryly and said, "But do what you do, each depends on his destiny."

"But human affairs, each according to destiny..." Ji Yanran chewed these eight words, her expression changed slightly, she looked at Xiang Shaolong again, and said, "Xiang Taifu's words are very novel, but they are easy to understand and have meaning. Deep, it's no wonder Qingxu respects you... Seven days later, if Xiang Taifu is still Taifu, you should talk to Yanran about these interesting things."

Xiang Shaolong was taken aback for a moment, then nodded hastily, and said, "No problem!"

Ji Yanran turned her head and smiled at Yao Guang, and said, "Then the teaching of Prince Zheng will be entrusted to Daoist Qingxu for a few days, and I will leave the city with Taifu Xiang immediately."

Yao Guang nodded with a smile, and said: "Mr. Yuan might as well go with him, the riding and archery skills of the descendants of King Wu can't be seen all the time."

Yuan Zong was stunned suddenly, and looked at Ji Yanran in astonishment.

Ji Yanran was surprised and delighted, and said with a smile: "Talking with Daoist Qingxu, I really can't relax for a moment... Well, since you pointed it out, I don't need to deliberately cover it up, I just hope that Daoist people don't want to talk to irrelevant people. That's right. Just wait quietly for Yanran's good news!"

Ji Yanran threw the longbow into Xiang Shaolong's hand, then went back to the courtyard, picked up a bow and threw it over, saying: "It's not too late, let's go immediately."

Xiang Shaolong cupped his hands to Yao Guang, and then walked out following the graceful Ji Yanran, but Yuan Zong stopped for a moment, and asked suspiciously: "King Wu...you mean King Wu of Zhou?"

Yao Guang smiled slightly and replied: "Since the beginning of the Zhou Dynasty, the vassal states have stood side by side. How can he be called the person who 'unifies the world'? Since he ruled the world with bows and horses, only King Wu of the Open Zhou Dynasty, whose pronunciation is similar to Ji, also once It is a branch of the Ji surname. If it is a descendant of King Wu, it is reasonable to fake Ji as the surname. The talented girl Ji has a wide range of knowledge and is born with a noble spirit. She is strong on the outside and strong on the inside. Such a temperament. Of course, I was just guessing. If Ji Cai denied it, it would be completely wrong. Now Ji Cai has shown her true skills. Xin...Mr. Yuan should also go and have a look. Talented Ji is so confident in her riding and shooting skills, she must not just be good at it. I will try to hide the news from others. Just in case, Mr. Yuan these few days Ri Ye should be more careful, maybe Prince Cheng Jiao and Lord Yang Quan will have other plans."

Yuan Zong understood, and said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, Daoist Qingxu, Yuan will definitely protect the talented girl Ji and Shaolong, and prevent those Xiaoxiao from taking advantage of it."

Yao Guang was stunned for a moment when he heard this sentence, and replied thoughtfully: "If there is an emergency, Mr. Yuan should take Shaolong first... People from the Yinyang family will walk outside, so how could there be no one?" How good is self-defense?"

Wasn't the mysterious and unpredictable attack she suffered in the little sage village in Sanghai all those years ago by the Yin Yang family?It is precisely because of this that no matter how Ji Yanran shows her favor, she is always wary of the Yin Yang family, but she never thought that this time Ji Yanran revealed so many "secrets" at once. Who would have known that the world-famous Yueren Ji Yanran Could it be a direct descendant of Ji Chang, who also has spear skills in addition to sword skills?

Yuan Zong finally nodded his head when he thought of the mysterious rumors about the Yin Yang family and the things hidden in the depths of the Mohist mechanism city.

"The real person should be more careful in the palace alone."

Compared to sending someone to assassinate Xiang Shaolong to make him unable to compete for the position of Grand Tutor, directly assassinating Ying Zheng would be more effective than anything else, which is why Yao Guang decided to stay in the palace.

Yao Guang smiled and nodded, making a gesture of seeing off the guests.

Yuanzong strode away.

Suddenly, Yao Guang raised his voice to a certain place in the courtyard: "Mr. Yan, please trouble yourself to follow Talented Girl Ji secretly."

Yan Ping walked out from the corner of the courtyard, and said in a hoarse voice with a calm face: "The master asked Yan to protect him secretly?"

Yao Guang smiled and shook his head.

"No... If someone really does something to Ji Cainv and others, it's fine if Ji Cainv doesn't take action. If she does, you must get rid of all witnesses except Mr. Xiang Taifu and Mr. Yuan, and no one can escape."

Yan Ping was a little bit suspicious, but he didn't ask any questions, he just nodded his head to express his understanding, and quietly followed Yuan Zong's footsteps.

After another moment, Yingzheng came by car, and when he saw Yaoguang alone in the hall, he seemed to realize something, sat down properly and began to listen to the class without asking too many questions.

After Yao Guang finished a class, she asked Ying Zheng to silently read yesterday's class. Looking at Ying Zheng's awkward seal characters, she couldn't help shaking her head.

Ying Zheng seemed to be aware of it, and when he looked up, he saw Yao Guang frowned slightly, and said awkwardly: "Sir, I used to... practice calligraphy differently from Qin Zhuan."

The writing of Zhao State is naturally far from that of Qin State. "Ying Zheng" has been in Zhao State for many years as a hostage. Of course, no one will teach him how to write Qin State writing. People doubt identity.

Yao Guang nodded slightly, and said: "I understand, so I didn't say anything. If you want to write good calligraphy, you have to practice hard. There is no shortcut. My seal characters are only mediocre. If I teach you rashly, I will miss you , I was thinking just now that calligraphy is one of the six arts, and all Confucian disciples must study it intensively, and there is a Confucian disciple in Xianyang City, if he is willing to teach you calligraphy, it would be great."

Ying Zheng said without hesitation: "Since Mr. said so, let's invite that person."

Yao Guang looked at Ying Zheng, smiled and said nothing.

Ying Zheng was a little dazed, not understanding what the hope in Yao Guang's eyes was for.He will not have any objection to Yao Guang's words, as long as she wishes, no matter who comes to teach him, he will learn, because he firmly believes that his husband will definitely arrange the best for him.After a few breaths like this, Ying Zheng looked at the "Encouraging Learning" written silently in his hand.

Learning Mo is almost close to his people.Rituals and music are not mentioned, poetry and books are not cut, and Spring and Autumn are about but not fast.Fang Qiren's practice of the gentleman's theory is respected all over the world, and Zhou is in the world.Therefore, it is said: Learning is not easy to get close to others.

This is the article "Encouraging Learning" written by Confucian Xun Qing.

Ying Zheng read "Learn nothing and get close to him" again, and suddenly realized.

"What do you mean, sir, that I should personally visit that Confucian scholar for advice?"

The faint smile on Yao Guang's face turned thicker, and he nodded with a smile.

"As a prince, being able to respect the virtuous and the corporal is more important to the Confucianists than your own talent and learning. Get ready for 'Shuxiu' tomorrow and go."

Ying Zheng nodded happily, pursed his lips, and said, "I will definitely live up to your expectations."

If his husband invited him in person, most of the Confucian disciples would be willing to come, but then, that person would be in favor of his husband, but if he invited him himself, everything would be completely different. He will only get a teacher-the reputation of "Corporal Lixian" is more important to him now.

Just as the two guessed, Ying Zheng went out of the palace the next day to "appreciate a teacher" and successfully brought back a calligraphy teacher that day.

Lu Buwei completely regarded Ying Zheng as his own son, so how could he be stingy with a mere diner, and immediately ordered Li Si to teach Ying Zheng wholeheartedly. Knowing how to thank you according to the etiquette, and then followed Ying Zheng back to the palace in a proper manner, until I got out of the car, I was still so nervous that I was in a trance.

Yao Guang stood at the gate of the National Teacher's Mansion, and seeing the two coming, he couldn't help but smile knowingly.

"Wang Zizheng is here. Tong Gu, I will have to trouble you more from now on."

When Li Si saw Yao Guang, his thoughts flashed suddenly, and he realized why Ying Zheng would choose him to teach calligraphy, so he immediately bowed his hands and bowed.

"Li Si paid a visit to the national teacher."

Yao Guang smiled and stepped aside, motioning for the two to come in.

"My handwriting is not very good, and I have never dared to let Wang Zizheng copy it. Today, Lao Tonggu worked hard and wrote a copybook first."

Li Si humbled himself in a hurry, and even said it was not hard.

Yao Guang looked at Ying Zheng and said with a smile, "You will have one more homework in the future, and you will be very tired from practicing calligraphy."

Ying Zheng shook his head and said, "I've wasted more than ten years, and now I'm trying to catch up, what's the trouble!"

Li Si's eyes lit up when he heard the words, and he felt that there was great hope in stretching his ambitions this time.

The three people in the National Teacher's Mansion get along well, but the suburbs of Xianyang are another scene.

The stunning beauty in a hard-wearing Hu suit galloped on a horse, bowed her bow and set her arrows, and the arrows hit the red heart on the target.

The bronze-skinned young man slapped his horse and chased after him. He also fired his bow, but three arrows missed and two arrows missed. An arrow shot from the front unexpectedly, so frightened that he immediately raised his gun and opened it, but he dared not speak out.

——The archery beauty stopped her horse gracefully in front of her, her longbow stretched like a full moon again, and her feathered arrows were pointed at him impressively!

"Don't worry, if you can dodge my arrows, you will naturally be able to dodge Wang Jian's sword. If you can't dodge mine, you'd rather die by my hands than by Wang Jian's."

Ji Yanran's voice was still so gentle and beautiful, but Xiang Shaolong's back felt chills when he heard it.

"Ji talented girl... don't need to be so cruel...?"
