Back to Tang Dynasty to be Emperor

Qinrenfang, also known as "Qinrenli", is located on the east side of the second street of Zhuque Street in Chang'an City.

The layout of Qinren Square is the same as that of other squares facing north and south. It is divided into four major districts by the Dashizi Street in the square. Each district has a small cross street. The subdivisions are divided into sixteen districts, and there are "lanes" in the districts. , "Qu", the square is surrounded by rammed earth square walls, and four gates are opened on all sides. It is located on the six high slopes passing through Luocheng.

Qinrenfang is adjacent to the imperial city, located in the core of Chang'an City, only one square away from Guozijian, and next to Wannian County of Jingzhao Prefecture (that is, the county government of Wannian County, which is equivalent to the current Dongcheng District Government of the capital Beijing). Like Yongningfang and Xuanyangfang, it is a typical "golden location". Most of the people who live here are famous families and ministers.

Qin Qiong, as the founding hero of the Tang Dynasty, was named General Zuowuwei after Li Shimin's coup, and the residences of Cheng Zhijie, Yu Chigong, Li Daozong, etc. were all in Qinrenfang.

He did not lead the army outside like Chai Shao, Cheng Zhijie and Li Daozong, but he was the first general of Zuo Wuwei. He was busy with official duties and came back very late every day.

When Li Ke and others arrived at the Qin mansion, Qin Qiong was naturally not at the mansion, and Qin Huaiyu was practicing the Qin family's sword method in the backyard waving a double mace.

The most important thing for those who practice double maces is to strike, owl, stab, point, block, block, split, frame, intercept, blow, sweep, lift, cover, roll, and press.

The practice of the Qin family's mace method pays special attention to the solid basic moves. Qin Huaiyu has practiced the basic moves all the year round, and has already mastered the mace method.Now he used it coherently, and every time he swung a mace, he carried an irresistible might.

"Brother Qin used a good mace." Li Ke couldn't help shouting.

Qin Huaiyu looked up, Li Ke, Chai Zhewei and Li Zong were not far away looking at him.Busily handing the double maces in his hand to the servant next to him, he came to Li Ke in three steps and saluted in two steps: "Qin Huaiyu has seen Your Highness."

Li Ke didn't expect Qin Huaiyu to make such a great gift. He thought that since Qin Huaiyu was his child, he would be as casual as Chai Zhewei and others. He didn't expect him to be so polite to him.

He called himself His Highness, didn't he separate himself from him as brothers?

Li Ke pretended to be angry and said: "Brother Qin killed Li Ke, you and my brother for several years, how did you become so polite today? Could it be that today's Li Ke is not worthy to be your brother Qin Huaiyu?"

Qin Huaiyu didn't expect that Li Ke's words were so direct that it was difficult to refute them for a while, and he also regretted that what he said just now was a bit out of place because of his friendship with Li Ke and the others.

Li Zong next to him saw Li Ke's displeasure and Qin Huaiyu's embarrassment, and hurriedly said: "Brother Qin, why are you still so polite to the third brother? No wonder the third brother is angry." Then he said to Li Ke: "Third brother, don't be angry , Brother Qin does not treat you as a brother, and we don’t need to be polite when we are together on weekdays, but the third brother is also a prince, and when he comes to Qin’s mansion, courtesy cannot be dismissed. It is understandable for Brother Qin to be so courteous."

Seeing Qin Huaiyu's embarrassed face, Chai Zhewei echoed with complaints: "Li Zong is right, third brother don't mind Brother Qin, he is just such a person, he is rigid, and he is too rigid about etiquette in everything."

Qin Huaiyu was a little embarrassed and said: "Third brother, I heard that you were assassinated on the way back to Beijing. All the brothers are very worried about you. It's just that I didn't enter the palace casually, so I can't visit you. Seeing that you are recovering now , I'm relieved."

Li Ke never thought of being angry about this matter, after Li Zong and Chai Zhewei said so, and seeing that Qin Huaiyu cared about him very much, he said with a smile: "Thank you Brother Qin, I am fine now, I met Zhewei and the others in the market today , I just have time to get together with my brothers." Then he said: "It's just that I'm a little weak after the injury, it's okay, I'll be fine after a few days of rest."

Li Zong said to Qin Huaiyu: "Third brother really wants to see everyone, and let everyone know that he is fine, so that we don't worry. I came to see you today, and I will go to Brother Cheng and Xiaojun again. We haven't been together for a long time, and we just got together get together."

Qin Huaiyu didn't care about Li Ke's brotherhood towards them, and asked Li Ke: "Third brother, does the murderer who assassinated you know? Brother will definitely seek justice for you after you recover from your injuries. However, you bowed during your recuperation. Horse salvo, weapons and martial arts must not be neglected."

Li Ke was taken aback.Martial arts?Yes, Li Ke in history was outstanding in martial arts, and he was the only member of the clan after Li Shimin and Li Daozong who could lead troops in battle.

But what about now?The Li Ke who was outstanding in civil and martial arts is no longer there, he is just a Li Ke who knows the direction of history well.Although I have inherited everything from him, I am still different from him after all, so I secretly said in my heart: "From now on, I must practice martial arts diligently, and I must not be careless like today and be bullied by others."

Seeing the melancholy on Li Ke's face, Chai Zhewei sighed secretly when he remembered what happened today.They are playmates who grew up together, and they know the time and effort that Li Ke spent on bowing horses and salvos, martial arts and weapons.

But judging from the fight between him and Liu Menglong and others today, his martial arts has not yet reached half of its previous strength.

Could it be that he really affected himself because of the injury?

For a while, everyone stopped talking, and the atmosphere became a little deserted.Li Ke glanced at Qin Huaiyu, then looked at Chai Zhewei and Li Zong, knowing what they were thinking, he comforted him: "You don't have to worry, bow your horses and shoot, I will definitely not neglect weapons and martial arts." Turn around and jokingly said to everyone: "Besides, all of you are outstanding in martial arts. If I don't practice more frequently, I will be sorry for our title of five tigers and one Tai Sui."

Seeing what Li Ke said, Qin Huaiyu felt a lot better. Is this the Li Ke who used to prefer a head instead of a phoenix tail? , I will do my best."

Seeing Qin Huaiyu being so sincere to him, Li Ke was moved and said, "Thank you, Brother Qin."

Qin Huaiyu said again: "However, restoring the previous martial arts skills cannot be achieved overnight, and the third brother should not rush for success."

Li Ke nodded in understanding.

When Chai Zhewei heard the two finally finished speaking, he took advantage of the situation and suggested: "Third Brother, let's go and see Brother Cheng. He is probably going crazy staying in the General's Mansion for a while."

Li Ke also said to Qin Huaiyu: "Brother Qin, I will go to see your aunt with you first, and then we will go to see Huai Liang together."

Qin Huaiyu said: "Third brother, please come with me, we will go see my mother right now."

Under Qin Huaiyu's guidance, Li Ke and others soon came to Mrs. Qin's residence.Mrs. Qin knew that Li Ke was coming, so she hurried out to salute.

Li Ke held her in his arms earlier, and said, "Ke greets Auntie, how is Auntie doing recently?"

Mrs. Qin said: "Thank you, my lord, for your concern. This old man has always been in good health." She then asked, "I heard that you were assassinated on the way back to Beijing. Will your body recover now? Has the murderer been found?"

Li Ke replied respectfully: "Thank you for your concern, Auntie, Ke is fine, and the murderer is still under investigation by Father."

Mrs. Qin asked with concern: "How is your concubine mother?"

Li Ke replied: "Thank you for your concern, Auntie. The mother and concubine are always in good health."

The two talked like this for a long time, then they saw Qin Huaiyu whispering something in Mrs. Qin's ear, and Mrs. Qin said that she was not feeling well and went back to the backyard to rest.Ask Qin Huailiang to talk with Li Ke. As soon as Mrs. Qin left, Li Ke and the others left the Qin residence.
