Jin Tie stood in the yard, full of emotion.
When he was very young, his father said to him, Jin Tie, remember, Hu cakes will not fall from the sky.
When he started practicing swords, his master said to him, Jin Tie, remember that only by comparing swords to win others can you get what you want.
However, he now felt that these words were wrong.
There is more than just a cake falling from heaven.
Even the yard fell down.
What can you get what you want by winning by comparing swords? When he arrived in Chang'an, he lost to others in a match against swords. As a result, he has money and reputation, and people in the yard have free gifts.
Chang'an yard!
On the edge of the west city, there is a yard inside Guangdefang.
Two-in-one yard!
And there is no need for rest, the layout itself is exquisite.
Hold the sword and move in.
When he thought of the word "Sword", he looked at his sword and felt that it was not important that a sword was not a sword.
The key is to listen to Gu Shiwu's words, just don't move the sword in Chang'an.
He didn't know how Gu Shiwu did it.
People from those well-known clans in Chang'an come to give gifts every now and then, especially this Du family... Even if it is Du, he feels that giving him a yard is a bit too big, right?
Even Cui's family is here today.
They also sent many gifts.
The person Cui's visit was Cui Yeshi.
Cui Yeshi felt very familiar with Jin Tie, but now he entered the yard. Although Jin Tie in front of him was still as reserved and flattered as before, he looked at him clearly like a stranger.
This amnesia is indeed a bit awesome.
Cui Yeshi couldn't help but shake his head and said, "Brother Jin Tie, do you really don't remember me?"
Jin Tie thought of Gu Liubai's explanation before, and he pretended to be sad, hammered his head twice, then sighed, "Is there any problem with the Cui method I practiced? It's only been the New Year, and amnesia is getting worse. I think I have met my brother somewhere, but you can't remember it now."
"Isn't it really a practice to get into a devil?" Cui Yeshi felt a little sorry when he thought of this person's sword method, but then he smiled and said, "It's okay, I'll come and walk around more in the future, and you can't forget Brother Jin Tie. I am Cui Yeshi. You will remember it later. You will ask your followers later. It's okay if you practice this method a little wrong. I happened to bring you two methods today. You can just take a look. If you think it's useful, you can use it."
Jin Tie gasped.
Has the Dharma lost again in this world?
Cui Yeshi and Jin Tie had contacted each other before. Knowing that this person was really good, there was no need to waste words, so he smiled and said with a smile, "It's just that there is a small matter, and I want to ask Brother Jin Tie to help you."
Jin Tie immediately said: "If you want me to help, just speak."
Cui Yeshi lowered his voice and said, "There are two people who also want to see the sword skills of the Jin Tie brothers, and also want to know the details of using the sword with green eyes."
When he mentioned the sword competition, Jin Tie suddenly became smarter again. He smiled and said, "Of course there is no problem with this, but the time and place must be arranged by me."
After saying this, he lowered his voice and said quietly: "Brother Cui, I'm not afraid of you making fun of it. My followers were secretly hiding in Yankangfang, staring at the movements of those people in Green Eyes. They helped me peek at their sword practice."
Cui Yeshi's eyes couldn't help but lit up, "Brother Jin, you are a few of your followers who are good at training and are quite useful."
"When those of me come back from inquiring about the news, I will try some sword moves." Jin Tie rolled his eyes and said softly: "Brother Cui, please send someone to wait nearby. I'm ready, so let him tell Brother Cui immediately?"
"It's so good." Cui Yeshi was quite satisfied when he heard this, and immediately smiled and said, "I'll arrange a carriage to wait at the intersection next to him."
"You are busy, I'll secretly go over and contact my entourage."
As soon as Jin Tie sent Cui Yeshi away, he immediately headed towards Yankangfang.
"Cui wants two people to compete with you?"
As soon as Gu Liubai and Jin Tie met, he immediately felt that it was not simple when he heard Jin Tie talk about this.
It has been so long since the last sword competition, and now two more people are looking for Jin Tie to compete in sword competition. He suspected that these two people are likely to be from Canglang Sword Sect, and it is even likely that the people selected by Canglang Sword Sect to compete in sword competition with him.
"Then Brother Jin, don't go out here. I'll send someone to tell them the time and place of sword competition."
Gu Liubai is not pedantic at all. If the sword master of Canglang Sword Sect came to investigate, this would be a good thing that came to the door.
"I guess they are guilty." Pei Yunqiu heard Gu Liubai say this and thought he should be from Canglang Sword Sect.
"Then I'll compete with them tonight." Gu Liubai smiled slightly, "It's time to ask Qiao Huangyun to come over and do it."
"Where is the place to choose?" Pei Yunqi asked casually.
"Qunxianfang," Gu Liubai said softly, "Let them find a suitable place to compete in swords. I will go and see your Uncle Chen and that widow."
Pei Yunqi's eyes lit up immediately, "You have a good idea."
Gu Liubai smiled and said softly, "Is there any reward for such a good idea?"
"I won't tell you anymore, I'll arrange things." Pei Yunqi's face turned red when he thought of his paws that he refused to let go last time, and he turned around and slipped away as if he was flying.
Not long after, Qiao Huangyun came quietly.
When he came here this time, he disguised himself as an ordinary-looking groom.
As soon as he walked in, Gu Liubai couldn't help asking curiously, "Uncle Qiao, the well in your yard has not been dug yet? I heard that you haven't gone out much during this period. Logically speaking, let alone one well, you should have dug three wells."
Qiao Huangyun frowned immediately and asked seriously, "Boss, how do you know I'm still digging a well?"
"You have a mud smell on you," Gu Liubai explained, "You are digging deep in this pit and people are always in the pit, so this smell is easy to get."
Qiao Huangyun nodded solemnly, "Thank you for your reminder. It seems that you are comfortable and lazy. I will pay attention in the future. I have to learn from Xu Qi."
Gu Liubai asked curiously, "What did Xu Qi do?"
Qiao Huangyun said, "He practices with Jinwu Guard every night."
Gu Liubai frowned and said, "Then you have to take care of it carefully, don't let him get angry with Jinwu Guard. In the palace, especially Li's hands, there are many strange things."
"Okay, let's mention him a little more and let him pay attention to his sense of duty." Qiao Huangyun was very serious in doing things. He thought for a while and said, "Would you like the fifth prince come here too? That's exactly the same as the last time."
"I'll ask him to ask him if he's free." Gu Liubai immediately called a student in Mingyue Pavilion to report the news.
Qiao Huangyun disguised Gu Liubai as if Jin Tie was like. When the construction happened, the fifth prince and Pei Yunqi arrived.
"Tell Cui's people that they will go directly to Qunxianfang before the curfew. They will definitely make arrangements for the specific place."
"My father sent someone to reply, and he said that Yelu Yueli should be very similar to what you said. The emperor asked this Uighur goddess to come to Chang'an, which was indeed taking advantage of her involvement. As for the big drama she evasively said, he told us not to care. He said that the emperor also felt that we would not care about us, so he didn't care about us now. He asked us to know what we wanted to do, and just do the things in front of us on our own."
Pei Yunqi directly called Shangguan Zhaoyi over and told the news he had just obtained.
Gu Liubai understood, and he looked at the fifth prince and said, "So according to Duke Pei's intention, your father will not interfere in our affairs for the time being, but he also thinks we should understand the truth and not interfere in his affairs."
The fifth prince nodded and said, "There are not many people in Chang'an who are smarter than Duke Pei, and no one knows my father better than Duke Pei. He is definitely right to say this."
Gu Liubai said, "But I heard that the powerful figures from Jitai Pavilion have all withdrawn from Youzhou?"
The fifth prince was slightly stunned, but in the next moment he reacted, "Are you talking about the person Yelu Yueli said to be the one who devours the Li family's qualities?"
He frowned slightly, "If this person is in Youzhou now, but his father doesn't pay special attention, but instead transfers all the people from Jitai Pavilion back, it is indeed unreasonable, but perhaps he may think that Jitai Pavilion may have no choice but to use such great luck, and may secretly mobilize the more powerful Li family's direct descendants."
"When we were in Youzhou, we didn't know about this at all, but the emperor had already reached a deal with the Uighur goddess." Pei Yunqi said solemnly, "The emperor's control over the Tang Dynasty is much more powerful than I thought."
Gu Liubai said calmly, "If Li can gain a country, the most powerful thing is naturally not those practitioners on the surface."
The fifth prince thought for a while and said, "Since the current situation, my father is quite satisfied with the performance of us. He probably feels that after you arrive in Chang'an, the choices you made have not touched any core interests of Li's family."
Gu Liubai smiled.
This wasn't a coincidence.
Every step he took to Chang'an was originally calculated repeatedly.
"The prince still holds his troops."
When talking about the crown prince, the fifth prince became solemn again, "When Lao Liu sent back the news, he was very sure that the crown prince did nothing at all. Also, he began to check the women in the palace, and some people who were close to the palace were also checking. He now felt that Yin Daozi might not be a male member of the Li family, and the seventh uncle mentioned by Xie Wan may not be a male."
Gu Liubai, Pei Yunqiu and Shangguan Zhaoyi looked at each other. The three of them had the same thoughts at this time. The Sixth Prince might have had some clues, but they just couldn't be sure.
The fifth prince then said seriously, "Lao Liu made a request this time. He said that there was no news from Princess Anxing recently. I wonder if there was any change after she went to Tubo. Let us find out as soon as possible."
"I will do it as soon as possible." Gu Liubai nodded and agreed.
The fifth prince continued, "The last curtain-blocking ceremony is on the thirteenth day of the first lunar month. If you have any news to spy on or spread any news, you can arrange for someone to participate."
"You must attend." Pei Yunqiu felt interesting when he heard the curtain-blocking ceremony. "Even if you don't interfere with what you Li is going to do, it is necessary to listen to more information from all parties and know what is happening in Chang'an and even the entire Tang Dynasty."
Qiao Huangyun's disguise technique is really amazing.
Pei Yunqiu and others said one by one, and it would not prevent him from disguising himself.
The true energy slapped some strange powder, and as the slapped it turned into layers of skin-like things, and then slowly smoothed it on the face with the true energy. It was probably because I had already helped them with it once last time, so it only took half an hour to disguise the three minions of Jin Tie.
"Uncle Qiao, are you tired? If you are not tired, just help my sister disguise and take her out for fun?" Pei Yunqiu saw that it was still early, and instantly got up the idea of ​​bringing Pei Yunhua with her.
Shangguan Zhaoyi knew that Pei Yunhua felt that Pei Yunhua was controlled by Jin Yanhua so that she could not live outside. Since Pei Yunhua happened to live in Mingyue Pavilion, when she went out to play, she would also take Pei Yunhua with her.
But this approach is not equivalent to a group trip for Gu’s wife?
She couldn't help but laugh.
"It's not tiring, it's not hindering." Qiao Huangyun felt that this was nothing.
Gu Liubai had to let Pei Yunqiu go.
He couldn't jump out and object, saying no, I was afraid that I would always get close to me and couldn't control myself in my dreams.
In fact, he knew it now that Pei Yunqi really didn't care about the things in his dream, but the more he did, he had a clear mind. He wanted to talk to Pei Yunhua and Shangguan Zhaoyi clearly when he was dreaming tonight.
...
Old Master Chongqian was still busy at the door of the kitchen, and Yelu Yueli walked over with a calm look on his face and said, "Do you want to watch the fun?"
"What's the fun?" Old Taoist Chong Qian didn't raise his head. He pressed the newly pickled hare with a stone.
Yelu Yueli did not answer immediately, but asked, "It's dead, it's dead, what do you do with stones? A flat rabbit is better than a normal rabbit?"
Old Master Chong Qian smiled contemptuously, "The little man is not aware of it anymore. As soon as you hear your aside, you know that you Uighurs are not particular at all. Even if you press the pickled things with stones, the meat will be tighter. Do you know that there is a famous dish in Chang'an City, which is to use two wines to marinate the tender meat from the sheep's head with seasonings, then roll it up with bay leaves, press it tightly with stones, and then steam it and slice it?"
"So amazing." Yelu Yueli said, "It will definitely increase your cultivation after eating."
"It can still look better after eating it." Old Master Chong Qian sneered.
Yelu Yueli said oh, and then asked again, "Then do you go to watch the fun or not? If you don't go to watch the fun, I'll go."
Her old Taoist Chongqian was so excited that she saw that the rabbit under the stone had no appetite, and then asked with a dark face, "What's the excitement?"
"Your junior brother is going to fight with someone." Yelu Yueli said, "It should be from Canglang Sword Sect."
Old Dao Chong Qian frowned slightly, "Canglang Sword Sect has made an appointment to compete with him at this time?"
Yelu Yueli shook his head and said, "Canglang Sword Sect has no idea. Find someone who has compared his sword with him to the bottom of the sword, but your junior brother wants to disguise himself as that person and explore the bottom of the Canglang Sword Sect."
"Little Man Girl, you are talking very well." Chong Qian sneered, "I don't want to pay attention to your appearance at all, how could you know so clearly?"
Yelu Yueli said, "I asked Xia Shenshi to help me stare at Miss Pei Er and Miss Pei Er's people. Of course, I have some ideas for myself."
"A great eighth-grade monk, will you arrange something to steal?" Chong Qian said contemptuously.
Yelu Yueli said, "Then I have asked someone to arrange a carriage."
"??" Old Master Chong Qian was stunned.
Yelu Yueli's murmur came into his ears, "After saying so much, why don't you go to watch the fun with me? What's wrong with stealing chickens and dogs? The eighth-grade monks are still catching hares, and some eighth-grade monks are even pressing rabbits with stones."
"You little barbarian girl." Old Taoist Chong Qian was a little embarrassed.
Yelu Yueli's voice came from further away, "We will eat the kind of lamb-faced meat you mentioned tonight."
...
After Gu Liubai's reminder, Qiao Huangyun learned from the pain and even paid special attention to the smell when he disguised himself.
So when Gu Liubai and his group went out, they were wearing all the clothes that Jin Tie took off.
The group took two carriages and headed towards Qunxianfang.
The fifth prince and Gu Liubai had a carriage. After walking for a while, the fifth prince couldn't help but sigh and said, "Gu Shiwu, my speed of changing the carriage is not as fast as the speed of the girls around you. No matter how big the carriage is, it can't carry so many girls."
Gu Liubai said with a deep face, "If you really don't want to change the carriage so quickly, there is something you have to help you do."
The fifth prince said curiously, "What's the matter?"
Gu Liubai said, "You marry the Uighur goddess."
"What's the matter?" The fifth prince looked at Gu Liubai in disbelief, "Did it be that the Uighur goddess has an affair with you?"
"I'm just a little bit, this woman is so nagging." Gu Liubai said in a deep voice, "I asked me if I wanted my wife if I first met me."
The fifth prince was stunned for a moment, and then smiled so hard that he touched his stomach, "Maybe she wants to be the God of Wealth? Who told you that there is a nickname for the Uighur God of Wealth outside the pass?"
"Breaking the bullshit!" Gu Liubai was in the mood to joke, and replied with two words very simply.
"I can't help you, you can solve it yourself." The fifth prince smiled, "You know, I like older ones."
Gu Liubai was immediately confused, "Are you really playing?"
"What I said last time, do you think I'm joking with you?" The fifth prince suddenly reacted and blushed again.
Gu Liubai was shocked, "You boy has a unique hobby!"
"Go and go! There is no unreasonable hatred and no unreasonable love in the world." said the fifth prince, "You have never seen the woman who shocked you. If you have seen it, you may not be able to forget the taste in your heart, and the taste may be similar to mine."
"I'll go!" Gu Liubai's curiosity suddenly became. "What do you mean? I have seen it and hadn't communicated in depth, so I can't forget the taste. It has determined your taste?"
The fifth prince's face turned redder, but he admitted generously, "It's true. After just a few glances, he felt that the taste was really a flesh-eating bone-eating spirit. It was a few years ago. How old was I at that time? Originally, I liked girls younger than me, but after seeing that woman, the taste was changed at once. I felt that those who have that kind of charm were the real ultimate in the world."
"??" Gu Liubai's mouth almost couldn't close, "So when you were in Youzhou, you said that Lin Yiyi's mother's charm was still there, and it was not a joke?"
"No joke, that's a serious comment." The fifth prince smiled, "But don't worry, I didn't touch her mind. The reviews were all the same, and there were no bad thoughts in my heart."
"Who is it that makes you miss it so much, and even your taste is unique?" Gu Liubai asked in disbelief.
The fifth prince sighed, "No need to say, I'll get off the carriage later. Ask Pei Yunqi and the other three, and say the first beauty in Chang'an, or the first beauty in the Tang Dynasty, see which one they would say."
Gu Liubai frowned and said, "With so many of them, why do you ask? The number one beauty in the Tang Dynasty must be Pei Yunqiu."
"Gu Shiwu, don't you want shame?" The fifth prince was amused and crying, "I asked the first beauty in Chang'an that I had previously recognized, but I didn't ask the current one."
Gu Liubai smiled shamelessly and said, "You can't take this risk either. You can't say it quickly."
"Count the ball, I'll give you a chance to perform." The fifth prince looked at Gu Liubai and said, "Anyway, I admire your shameless spirit."
When the carriage entered the gate of Qunxianfangfang, as soon as they stopped by the avenue, the group had just gathered together, and the fifth prince deliberately said, "Just when the carriage passed by, I heard two people arguing on the roadside, beating who is the first beauty in Chang'an? Gu Shiwu, do you know who is the first beauty in Chang'an?"
Gu Liubai was happy and said, "What's the point of contention? Isn't this recognized Miss Pei Er the number one beauty in Chang'an?"
Although Pei Yunqin knew that Gu Liubai was deliberately saying it nicely, she was amused in front of so many people and couldn't help but giggle and said, "Then you really have vision."
"Okay." The fifth prince said shamelessly, "I don't refute you that Yun Qi is the most beautiful in the world, but those two people are talking about the first beauty before..."
Pei Yunqi suddenly smiled, "What's there to argue about? Unless you are blind, it must be Princess Jing."
"Princess Jing?" Gu Liubai was stunned for a moment, and immediately came back to his senses, giving the fifth prince a look and felt it.
The fifth prince, who was a dog, was actually changed by his aunt's aesthetic taste?
Pei Yunhua and Shangguan Zhaoyi also nodded repeatedly.
That is undoubtedly Princess Jing.
Pei Yunqi looked at Gu Liubai and knew that he didn't know how Princess Jing existed. Thinking that Cui's people might appear at any time, she explained softly, "When King Jing was strangled by the previous generation Li's battle for the dragon throne, he was probably the last winner with his strength. But he was killed soon. Later, everyone went to look up the old accounts and found that the biggest reason was not that he made some stupid moves, but that Princess Jing was too beautiful and jealous. Many forces were too jealous and didn't want him to fulfill his family. As a result, he was finished before he officially married Princess Jing."
"So awesome?"
Although Gu Liubai had never heard of the story of Princess Jing before, after listening to Pei Yunqi's few words, he suddenly felt that Princess Jing should be a bit too beautiful.
At this time, the fifth prince couldn't help but add a few words softly, "King Jing was so strong at that time. Two vassal states were loyal to him. Not only did he have high cultivation, he also really held military power. But you know that he was defeated in the end, because the generals of these two vassal states accidentally saw Princess Jing and had that kind of thought in his heart. As a result, when the troops were really used, neither of these two vassal states could stand up."
Pei Yunqi smiled and couldn't help but say, "I heard that your father is also obsessed with Princess Jing, and he has been wanting to sleep with her for many years."
The fifth prince didn't feel embarrassed at all. He smiled and said, "This is true, but Princess Jing actually has a handwritten order from my grandfather. Unless she wants to get married, no one can do anything to her."
Gu Liubai didn't believe it anymore, "What, I can't do anything with just a handwritten order? If I were your father, maybe there would be more people fighting for the dragon throne now."
"I know your way is different from that of a person, but it is really difficult to be strong." The fifth prince smiled, "I don't know how many people are staring at him. If anyone is angry with the public, he might end up like King Jing back then."
"Diet under the peony flowers, you will be romantic even if you are a ghost." Pei Yunqi smiled, "Fifth Prince, don't be afraid, or you can try it, and after you try it, you can run to Tianzhu quickly."
The fifth prince smiled and said, "Then I'd better have a few more days of peace. I don't care about my long life."
Gu Liubai was about to speak, but he suddenly saw a few acquaintances.
"Why are the two of them here?" Among these acquaintances, one group of people was from Cui's family, and the leaders were Cui Yeshi and Cui Yanming, but the other group made him speechless in an instant.
It turned out to be Yelu Yueli and Chongqian’s old Taoist!
Have you ever had my mouth open with the fifth prince today? She had just talked about this nagging goddess, so she came to this group of fairy houses.
Anyway, he is Jin Tie now, so Gu Liubai can only see it and pretend not to see it.
Seeing Cui Yeshi and Cui Yanming come over, he instantly pretended to be a little confused, "These two brothers look familiar."
"Hi!"
The fifth prince understood it and immediately reminded, "These two are the nobles of Cui."
"I remembered it!"
Gu Liubai slapped his head and immediately bowed apologetically, "Look at my memory, it turns out that it is Cui Yeming and Cui Yanshi."
When Cui Yeshi and Cui Yanming heard that Jin Tie had even called the two people wrong names, they immediately smiled helplessly, thinking that the memory of the Jin Tie brothers was really not good.
The fifth prince immediately bowed again and said softly, "Recently, our master is thinking about sword moves and practice, so there are some... Don't blame me for the two. Anyway, we are all here, and you will know as soon as you remind him, so you won't delay the trouble."
"This person is probably a real sword fool."
Cui Yeshi and Cui Yanming both had a solemn face, and such thoughts came to their minds.
"The place where you are fighting is in Young Hyun Street. You follow our carriage and you will arrive in a while."
The two of them didn't talk nonsense. Several carriages led the way in front of the road, crossed the two streets and alleys, and arrived outside the gate of a seemingly private yard.
This yard has three entrances and doesn't look big.
Gu Liubai and others got off the carriage. As soon as they reached the second step, Yelu Yueli and Chongqian had already arrived outside the courtyard gate.
Although the gate of the courtyard has not been closed yet, several Cui sword masters were standing at the gate. When they saw a girl and an old Taoist walking towards the gate, one of them was surprised and said directly, "Private courtyards, idlers are not allowed to enter."
Yelu Yueli did not stop and just said, "I am not an idle person, I am not idle at all."
This swordsman has never seen such a trick before and was stunned.
When the sword masters around him moved at the same time, when he came to his senses, Yelu Yueli had already crossed the threshold with one foot.
"Please stop!"
His expression changed and he shouted in an instant.
Old Master Chong Qian didn't have such a good temper anymore. He just shouted coldly, "Get out of the way."
Chapter completed!
