Back to Tang Dynasty to be Emperor

Chapter 67 The Eagle's Story

After everyone left, Li Ke recruited Chen Qi, Wang Zhongchang, Zhu Tong, Hou Hu, and Meng Shan to the study.It was the first time that no one saw Li Ke calling them together at the same time.Therefore, everyone is regretting that there is something important that cannot be done.

Li Ke waved his hand and said, "Everyone sit down, don't stand."

Chen Qi knew Li Ke's character, so he didn't push it anymore, and reluctantly sat in a chair.As soon as Chen Qi sat down, the remaining four people also sat down.

Seeing that there were four other people besides Chen Qi, Li Ke was still a little cautious, and said with a smile, "Don't you be so restrained? How come your well-known figures outside seem so cautious here?"

"Scared, you are the prince!" Chen Qi murmured, while carefully looking at Li Ke.

Li Ke didn't hear what Chen Qi said, but seeing his expression, he knew what Chen Qi was thinking, and couldn't help laughing, "Chen Qi, what happy things are you thinking about? Tell us all to have fun."

Chen Qi didn't expect Li Ke to find out what he was doing, and his face blushed immediately, he hesitated and couldn't speak, a big girl who was just about to get married.Seeing Chen Qi's expression, Li Ke couldn't help laughing.It was the first time for the other four to see Chen Qi so shy, and they couldn't help laughing.

It can be said that the Eagle Guard system was set up by Chen Qi himself.And Wang Zhongchang and the other four were also recommended to Li Ke by Chen Qi who valued their abilities during the training process.Therefore, Chen Qi personally supervises the training of Eagle Guards.Therefore, the four of them respected and feared Chen Qishi.Now seeing Chen Qi, who usually looks majestic, showing his innocent side in front of Li Ke, how could the four of them be unhappy.

After the four of them laughed, Li Ke knew that it was almost time, so he said, "You are all the best in the king's personal guards, and you are all the right-hand men of the king in the future. So, today, the king doesn't talk nonsense here, just Let me tell you one thing about the true purpose of this king in forming the Eagle Guard."

Except for Chen Qi among the five, it was the first time that Li Ke had said that there was a purpose for forming the Eagle Guard. They were all listening carefully to what Li Ke said, for fear that they might miss some important part if they were not paying attention.

"Do you know why you are called Yingwei?" Li Ke asked suddenly.

"Your Highness, the eagle is a raptor of flying birds. It flies fast, and the animals it finds are easy to escape from its pursuit." Hou Hu, who is good at tracking, said.

Wang Zhongchang suddenly said, "Cunning and cruel." Because Wang Zhongchang's character is rather cruel, so in his eyes, his understanding of the eagle is very consistent with his own personality.

Li Ke nodded and said, "You are right, and what you say makes sense. However, I still want to tell you a little story about eagles. When a young eagle is born, it will not enjoy the common animal's young life. The comfortable days when he was young, because he had to endure the cruel training of the mother eagle. With the help of the mother eagle, the young eagle was able to fly alone in a short time.

However, this is only the first step, because this kind of flying is only slightly better than crawling, and young eagles need hundreds of times of training.Otherwise, they have no right to the food in the mouth of the female eagle.

The second step is that the female eagle takes the young eagles to a high place, or on a treetop or a cliff, and then throws them down. Some young eagles are thrown to death by the female eagle because of their timidity.

The third step is even more cruel. Those young eagles that are pushed off the cliff by the mother eagle and can fly successfully will face the final, most critical and difficult test. Most of the bones in their wings will be broken by the mother eagle. Then push down from the height again. "

Li Ke said that he stopped here, then glanced at the crowd, and began to say, "Sometimes hunters are moved with compassion and secretly take some young eagles back home to feed them before they have had time to be broken by the mother eagle. But Later, the hunters discovered that the eagle eagle that had been raised could only fly as high as the house before falling. The two-meter-long wings became a burden.”

Li Ke looked at Chen Qi and asked him, "Why do you say this happened?"

Chen Qi was swept away by Li Ke's eyes, and felt as if Li Ke had seen through him. His whole body was cold for a while, and he was speechless for a while.Then, Li Ke ignored Chen Qi, glanced at Wang Zhongchang and the other four and said in a deep voice, "Why do you think this happened?"

The four of them saw Li Ke's eyes, the kind of eyes that could see through them and make them feel ashamed, and suddenly fell to their knees, "Please make amends, Your Highness, the end will be unknown."

"You don't know, or have you never thought about it?" Li Ke was suddenly furious, so you should listen to the king today. The key to whether young eagles can fly freely in the vast sky in the future. Eagle wing bones have a strong ability to regenerate. As long as they can still flap their wings and fly without enduring severe pain after being broken, the wings will continue to engorged with blood. It can be cured, and after the recovery, the wings will be reborn after death like the phoenix in mythology, and will grow stronger and stronger. If not, the eagle will lose its only chance, and it will never have a chance to see the blue sky."

Speaking of this, Li Ke suddenly asked, "Do you know why I told you such a story?" Everyone was silent, but they knew from Li Ke's words that he was very dissatisfied with Yingwei's recent performance.

Chen Qi was the first to say, "The final general has neglected his duty and failed to fulfill the tasks entrusted to him by His Royal Highness. Please punish him." The other four followed Chen Qidao, "Please punish the late general for his crime of dereliction of duty."

"Punishment? Don't you just think about punishing crimes because you think you can't do things well?" Li Ke asked in a deep voice, "Haven't you thought about it, don't you call Yingwei?"

After hearing what Li Ke said, the five of them all bowed their heads in shame.Because, they are all vigorous men, and they were all proud of being Eagle Guards.However, today, after they really understand the growth of eagles, they realize that they are not eagles, they are just birds with hard wings.

This is what Li Ke wanted. Seeing the ashamed faces of everyone, knowing that he would not say anything, they also knew what to do in the future.Therefore, he said in a calm tone, "I named you Yingwei because I want you to become eagles that can fight against the sky, instead of owls that look like eagles but can only catch mice."

After finishing speaking, Li Ke sighed with distress, "But, you are just a group of Zou Ying now!"

Chen Qi had the longest time with Li Ke, and it was the first time he saw Li Ke showing such a distressed expression, he felt sore, "Your Highness, the last general has neglected his duty, and he is not strict enough to discipline and train his subordinates. That's why I can't even look down on individuals now, and I can't even check them. The general is willing to punish, but the general still asks His Royal Highness to continue to lead the Eagle Guard. Chen Qi will definitely not disappoint His Highness, and make the Eagle Guard a real Eagle."

The four of them heard Chen Qi's guarantee, which was almost like a military order, and all of them were excited, and they all said loudly, "Please rest assured, Your Highness, the last general will definitely strengthen training in the future, and become a real eagle under His Highness."

"You need continuous training and continuous growth amidst difficulties. Therefore, this king will not blame any of you this time, but don't forget the story and words that this king told you tonight." Li Ke said Soothing a lot.

"The final general will always remember His Highness's instruction." The five said at the same time.

"Get up," Li Ke said, and when the five of them got up, Li Ke said, "For the time being, we don't need to focus on the important ministers in the court, but we can only strengthen the surveillance of Changsun Wuji, and we can't relax our vigilance. Zhang Hui is in the same party, and the details of Sun Ning must be found out as soon as possible."

"promise"

Li Ke knew that he scolded him a little bit fiercely just now, but after seeing a few people scolded by him, instead of being discouraged, they were full of confidence, and he was very happy.This is what he really needs. Although they are too young now, they need to go through many difficulties to grow up.However, once they grow up, they will definitely become a sharp weapon in his hands, overcoming thorns and thorns, invincible.
