Chapter 728: A duel with the Sword Master
At noon, the sun is at the middle of the sky.

The affairs of the court had to be dealt with eventually and could not be delayed because of personal matters. Xia Fengxiang knew this better than anyone else.

So after breakfast, she started to make unreasonable demands on Su Changan, asking him questions like why did you force me to drink, why didn't you just cover my mouth, why didn't you beat me for your grandmother last night, and so on.

Su Changan was actually not awake yet. He just sighed there and finally said, "You said I was the best last night," and repeated all the disgusting words Xia Fengxiang had said along the way last night.

Xia Fengxiang took a breath and got goose bumps because of his own words. In shame, he beat Su Changan again, and finally bit Su Changan on the mouth, then walked away to the imperial study while cursing.

But in fact, Su Changan could see that she ran away because she was too embarrassed.

Why.
This young wife!
How rare!
Mainly because of the excessive contrast.

After Xia Fengxiang left, Su Changan simply lay down in the hall and planned to take a nap. Mainly because the weather was getting hotter and he was weak before, Xia Fengxiang had people keep the heating on. Although the temperature was not high, it was still a bit hot.

Although it has been removed now, it is still stuffy and not as comfortable as being outside.

It rained a little last night, and even when Su Changan woke up, it was still clear after the rain.

In fact, Su Changan woke up after sleeping for more than an hour, and finally went back to sleep.

After waking up and washing up briefly, Su Changan yawned, either because he was sleepy or because he wanted to yawn.

Everyone in Lingqi Pavilion looked at the empress sitting there, and their expressions changed from last night's surprise and excitement to worry.

Today, Yu Kuangjian, Ping Ruoshui and others who usually wouldn’t come came.

Just looking at the Queen in the yard.

Xuanxia and the others don't understand martial arts, but they know which sword master the queen is going to fight with today, and she might even have to fight with Commander Yan!
Fighting.
Several palace maids couldn't tell the difference between a fight and a duel, and they just knew that the queen was going to fight with such a powerful person.

So now everyone is worried, and there is no sign of the excitement on the faces of the palace maids last night when they knew that the Empress was in the limelight again.

Su Changan glanced at the sky. It had been more than a year since he came here. He was already quite skilled at determining the time by looking at the sun.

But I heard Zhou Qianhong say that Wu Qinhu wanted to see me.

This made Su Changan confused for a moment, but he also invited Zhou Qianhong in.

He himself stood up.

Aunt Sun looked at Su Changan but didn't say anything. She just helped take a red coat off the hanger and helped Su Changan put it on together with Xunxia.

After wearing a red dress, Su Changan picked up the Suxue long sword on the table. He didn't know the name of the sword because it was not on the sword and his grandmother didn't say it either.

But in terms of appearance, it is the best sword Su Changan has ever used. The pattern on the hilt is particularly exquisite. It does not look like a sword for fighting, but more like a decorative sword.

Aunt Sun looked at Su Changan who was holding the sword casually, and said softly: "Madam, Madam Su is getting worse and worse now. She can't worry about it anymore, so please don't get hurt."

She was talking about Madam Su, but Aunt Sun's eyes were full of worry.

Although Xia didn't say anything, she bit her lips lightly and looked worried.

Xiangluo nodded vigorously, agreeing with Aunt Sun's words.

Su Changan smiled. He had realized since morning that he was the one who was fighting and asking for the sword. However, he did not feel nervous at all. Instead, everyone in the yard was more nervous than each other.

of course
Except the cat and the foodie.

Maomao has been dealing with medicinal herbs since the whole morning, and he even carries several gourds on his back. If you don't know, you might think he is going out to sell medicine.

Yan Ruyu and Lu Cai did not tell Su Changan what happened last night, but Maomao told Su Changan in the morning.

Su Changan did not comment, but just said to Maomao, "I'm here, you have someone to back you up, so do whatever you want."

It's a bit spoiled, but that's the truth.

As for the foodie, Su Changan was too lazy to say anything, because in her words, "After beating you, will you come back and make spicy rabbit heads? I'm greedy."

Su Changan didn't say much, just looked at Aunt Sun and nodded.

No matter how much you say, it’s better to just nod your head and agree.

Sometimes, the care of our elders just requires a nod from you.

She was wearing a red gauze dress with white clothes underneath. She held the white snow long sword casually in her hand, and her long black hair still hung down casually.

There is no change from the previous Su Changan, except that he seems more calm, even though he knows that the person he is facing today is probably the strongest swordsman in the world except Tai Nai.

Wu Qinhu came with Wu Daming. When they were led by Zhou Qianhong to the door, they happened to see Su Changan standing outside the hall.

Red clothes and white sword.

After the rain, the sky is bluer and round leaves float on the water.

This 'woman' is more moving than the beautiful scenery carefully created by the craftsmen in the inner palace of Lingqi Pavilion.

Wu Qinhu was fine, after all he was old, so he saluted with his fists clasped.

On the other side, Wu Daming was staring at Su Changan.

Su Changan hooked his fingers on the jade ring on the sword, turned his wrist casually, looked back, saw Wu Qinhu and Wu Daming, smiled knowingly, and the beautiful scenery became even more intoxicating.

Su Changan walked forward and rubbed Wu Daming's head, then looked at Wu Qinhu: "Senior, have you eaten yet?"

Wu Qinhu was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that the lady would start her speech with this. He nodded immediately and said, "I have eaten."

Su Changan looked down at Wu Daming, turned his wrist slightly, and some more snacks appeared, which he handed to Wu Daming. Then he looked at Wu Qinhu and said, "Senior, is it something important that you are looking for me for? Let's talk while we are walking? I just happen to be going to the martial arts arena."

Wu Qinhu nodded.

Only the grandfather and grandson came. When Su Changan didn't ask, Wu Qinhu told him about Xia Tingyu. He said that he got drunk yesterday and vomited all night. He still felt uncomfortable in the morning and couldn't come.

Otherwise, even if Yan Yunxiao didn't invite Xia Tingyu, it would be fine to bring Wu Qinhu along.

After hearing this, Su Changan felt helpless. Compared to them, his wife was still the one who could drink more. But when he thought about what happened when they were drunk, Su Changan smiled helplessly.

Wu Qinhu glanced at Su Changan and said, "It's very lively outside today. The two poems written by the queen last night really made a great impact. But I didn't expect that the queen would have to fight with Yu Taohua again tonight."

Wu Qinhu didn't say it clearly.

But in fact, Su Changan had heard about the hustle and bustle outside in the morning. It was more than just bustling. The two poems, especially "Song of Everlasting Sorrow", made many sentimental women cry after listening to them.

Many people think of "Dream of the Red Chamber" and "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio", and they all say that the Empress is always good at making people cry.

But after all, only Your Majesty can write such poems.

And "Spring River Moon Night" made countless scholars sigh, and they all said that the Empress's literary talent was so high that no one could compare with her.

Many people even mentioned what Su Changan said last night about the "Unity of Knowledge and Action", and talked about whether Daxia would produce another saint.

lively?

It's more than just lively.

Su Changan is even being deified more and more.

Wu Qinhu continued, "People outside don't know what happened today, but if they knew, yesterday was a literary move, today is a martial move, no one can match it."

Wu Qinhu was sincerely moved. Because in the world, even in the history books, there is no one like Su Changan.

As the emperor of a country, both civil and military talents are at the top. Although he still needs to work hard in the field of martial arts, he is only in his early twenties, so his future is self-evident.

Shentu Kuyue walked aside and muttered, "You came here just to flatter me? He has changed. Even Wu Qinhu has changed. What a world this is. Girl, come here and give me one."

At the end of the conversation, Shentu Kuyue reached out to touch Wu Daming's hand.

However, Su Changan brought Wu Dameng to his side and stopped Shentu Kuyue, "You have eaten too many snacks and fruits these past two days."

Shentu Kuyue was in a bad mood and just made up a story to eat a few more bites.

There are some things that have to be said. Actually, Wu Qinhu is not complimenting her intentionally, but he really wants to say it. After all, from the time she came to Beijing until now, this lady has given people surprises everywhere, so he has to do this.

However, Wu Qinhu is not a person who likes to explain. There is no need to explain in front of people who understand, but in front of people who don’t, no matter how you explain, it will be useless.

Wu Qinhu looked at Su Changan and said, "I wrote a letter to Da Mengzi's father about the white bear that the queen wanted. I'll take a look at it after I get back. If the queen likes it, I'll personally send two to the capital."

Su Changan was a little surprised when he heard this: "It's not difficult, right? As for the panda, I remember that I can't just give it away. What about the growth environment?"

panda?

Wu Qinhu was stunned. It was a good name.

Wu Qinhu smiled and said, "Just let Da Mengzi keep an eye on her. This girl has been playing with those polar bears since she was little."

Su Changan looked at Wu Daming with some surprise.

When Wu Daming was stared at by Su Changan, he grinned a little embarrassedly, but the next moment he realized that his smile was too silly and not cute at all, so he just chuckled and quickly lowered his head.

Su Changan was about to say something when he was suddenly stunned. He then looked at Wu Qinhu and said, "Senior, you came to me alone today to ask if I am willing to accept Wu Daming as your apprentice?"

Wu Qinhu was exposed directly, but he didn't hesitate and nodded directly: "I do have this idea, and this girl is willing."

Shentu Kuyue raised her eyes and said, "You are so greedy, you want the queen to be the master of your granddaughter, you...huh?"

Su Changan stretched out his hand and grabbed Shentu Kuyue's head, and threw her directly at Shentu Sheyue without any courtesy, then looked at Mao Mao and said, "Watch out."

In the entire Lingqi Pavilion, there are only three people who can scare Shentu Kuyue: Xia Fengxiang, Su Changan and Yan Yunxiao.

But there are four people who can control Shentu Kuyue, besides Su Changan and the other three, the other one is Maomao.

The main thing is that the cat controls Shentu Kuyue's lifeline of greed and drink.

Wu Qinhu frowned and said, "I have the thought, but I'm not asking the queen to accept her. We think the queen is suitable, but if you don't like this child, then you don't like it. I just want this child to stay in the capital first. She has been running around in the mountains since she was a child and doesn't know a lot of things. It will be better for her to see more in the capital. If the queen is interested and thinks she is suitable, we can test her and decide whether to accept her or not."

The attitude is very humble, but it is also Wu Qinhu's original intention.

After all, it's all for my granddaughter, and since I have this opportunity, I should fight for it if I can.

Wu Qinhu went on to say, "There is one more thing. The Beast Forest does not interfere with the affairs of the imperial court. The main reason is that the people of the Beast Forest are all mountain people. They don't understand many things. They only know how to hunt and raise animals. However, the people in the village understand the family feud and the national hatred. Moreover, the Zoroastrianism has gone too far this time. The Zoroastrianism on my side almost took my granddaughter's life. There are national hatreds and personal hatreds. No matter what happens to the Zoroastrianism in the Western Regions, I will go to the Zoroastrianism to reason. If the army attacks, the people in the village have plenty of manpower and will go to the border to take a look."

Su Changan looked at Wu Qinhu, thought for a moment and said, "Senior, you don't need to make such a clear distinction. Jianghu is Jianghu, and the court is the court. There is no such thing as if I accept Da Mengzi as my apprentice, you Beast Forest will submit. His Majesty told me about this after Xia Tingyu said that. Senior, you just need to make a clear distinction between personal and national hatred. Besides, when you ask for the sword today, I am the Su Changan in Jianghu, not the queen, so senior, you don't need to worry about this."

Wu Qinhu was silent.

The empress saw everything clearly and explained it very clearly, which made him feel relieved.

The attitude of letting her granddaughter become Su Changan's disciple was something that Xia Tingyu came up with for the sake of their Beast Forest, in order to prevent the King of Shu from harassing them again.

But at the same time, it was also a statement to the imperial court that they, the Beast Forest, had nothing to do with the King of Shu, and that they would stand on the side of Daxia no matter what the King of Shu did.

It is said that it has nothing to do with the imperial court, but Zhuangzi's sect is so big, how can it be separated from the imperial court?

This is also what gives Wu Qinhu a headache.

Wu Qinhu clasped his fists and bowed towards Su Changan.

Su Changan returned the gift.

Some things have to be said, and Wu Qinhu obviously came to say these things today. Although he is a senior who lives a free and easy life in the world, he has concerns, so no matter how much he dislikes something, he still has to do it.

After all, it was for his disciples, otherwise Su Changan didn't think Wu Qinhu would care about these things.

Perhaps, ever since he followed Xia Tingyu to the capital to repay a favor, this senior had this intention, and Xia Tingyu also intended to do so, so he talked about accepting him as a disciple from the beginning.

After all, it's an attitude.

We didn’t talk about these things afterwards.

Su Changan looked at Wu Daming, and Wu Daming stole glances at Su Changan from time to time.

The topic of conversation was not about Yu Taohua. Wu Qinhu knew very well that talking about it now would only affect the Empress, so he did not talk about Yu Taohua, but only talked about animals.

This gave Su Changan the idea of ​​opening a zoo.

After all, if we start protecting them from now on, many animals may not become extinct.

But these are all things for later.

The words in front of me
Try your best to win first.

Many people are already waiting at the martial arts arena.

When they saw Su Changan, many people bowed respectfully.

That is, Yu Taohua smiled lightly, then jumped onto the stage with the sword of luxury.

Su Changan smiled, but didn't waste any time and jumped lightly onto the stage.

Pa~~
But it was just the moment when the toes touched the ground.

An invisible pressure appeared inexplicably.

Yu Taohua suddenly appeared in front of Su Changan: "Yu Taohua greets the Queen."

Then, Yu Taohua smiled and said, "Shall we start?"

Su Changan saw that the other person looked very similar to usual, but also different in some way, so he nodded: "Okay."

As soon as he finished speaking, the sword intent around Su Changan spread out, blasting away Yu Taohua's sword intent.

The two collide.

The battle has already begun before it even begins.

Yu Taohua smiled and started talking without any greetings. She seemed to be genuine, but she was also eager to start talking.

hum!
Yu Taohua held the ink-black sword across her body, and the sword was shaking.

……

PS: That's all for today, take a break, it's been too hot lately, I'm inexplicably irritable. Don't wait for the second update, if there is one tomorrow morning, I'll update it tonight, if not, I'll make it up tomorrow.
