C25 Capricious Princess

When Dongfang Zhongyue heard that Princess Baoqing wanted to cripple his master, he was overjoyed. He happily said: "Right, right, how can I, a three-legged cat, teach a princess? "You need to find a true expert …"

"You are an expert, so I'll depend on you to teach me." Princess Baoqing pulled back her long spear and ordered, "Get off the horse and teach me martial arts!" Dongfang Zhongzhu was even more surprised and asked: "Didn't you say you didn't recognize me as your master? Why do you want me to teach you?"

"Are you and Xiaoqing friends?" Princess Baoqing asked. "Is that so?" The more East Midnight didn't know what she was going to say. Princess Baoqing said proudly, "Little Qing calls me Aunt. Do you have to call me Aunt as well?"

"No!" Dongfang Zhongyu immediately shook his head, "He is him, I am me, and you are his elder, not mine." That's right! " Princess Baoqing retorted, "We're about the same age, so you can't pretend to be my elder. As a result, I destroyed the title of your master because you didn't respect me as your teacher. However, I still need you to teach me kung fu. "

Dongfang Zhongyu was angry to the point that he frowned. After all, he had an agreement with Wang Zhenliang, so he said, "Alright, I'll teach you." After tying up the horse, she walked over once more, "Princess, to practice true martial arts, you have to be able to endure hardships!"

"No need to fear, I can endure hardships." Princess Baoqing said confidently. Dongfang Zhongyue secretly smiled and said: "Alright, let's start with the basics. I saw that your lower body was extremely weak when you were practicing palm techniques. You should have been practicing Horse Steps first … Alright, hold on! "Don't move!" Dongfang Zhongyu helped her position and went inside to make tea and drink.

It was noon, and although the April sun was not as vicious as the one in the sky, it was still unbearable. In less than a quarter of an hour, Princess Baoqing's forehead was covered in sweat, and most importantly, her legs couldn't take it anymore! After a while, Princess Baoqing could no longer hold it in and shouted, "I said … "Um, how long do I have to stay here?"

"In the house, Dongfang Zhongyu replied," "It's too early, you have to put in a lot of effort if you want to practice well." " "Alright …" Princess Baoqing wiped the sweat off her face and gritted her teeth as she persisted.

What do you mean by perseverance? Something that is difficult or impossible to accomplish is called persistence. No matter how powerful a martial arts expert was, they would not be able to ride their horses for an unending period of time! Half an hour later, Princess Baoqing's legs were shaking. "Then who …" "I can't squat any longer …"

"Princess, didn't you say that you can endure hardships?" Dongfang Zhongyue's voice was very leisurely, "Persist, persevere to win, don't be scared by such a small difficulty."

Princess Baoqing cheered up. "Alright, I insist...!" Simply put, his legs were numb, his crotch had loosened, and he no longer felt the soles of his feet. How could he continue to persevere? Princess Baoqing's face turned red and she finally sat down on the ground.

After a long while, Princess Baoqing finally got up and limped into the Grass Hall. "He saw Dongfang Zhongyue sitting on a chair with his feet up and carrying a cup of tea, looking relaxed and at ease." "Healing in the East!" Princess Baoqing flew into a rage. "I was outside in the sun, sweating and squatting until my legs were numb. Did you enjoy it?"

Dongfang Jingyue put down his tea and calmly asked: "Your Highness, which one of us wants to learn kung fu?" What if I want to learn? As your master, you can't possibly … " Halfway through her sentence, Princess Baoqing realized that she was wrong and changed her words, "Although there is no title of master and disciple, there is still the truth of master and disciple! You can't possibly enjoy it, can you? "

"If you want to learn kung fu, of course you must suffer hardships. Princess, you have never heard the words: Master will bring you in and practice by yourself." "If you are afraid of suffering, then don't learn martial arts." How can that be? " Princess Baoqing pouted and said, "Okay, let's say you're right. However … "But there's no use in squatting down all the time, I need to learn some great martial arts."

"There is no difference between strong and weak kung fu. The only thing I can see is that you have practiced it steadily and that you can't use it well. Princess, please stand firmly." Dongfang Zhongyue slowly stood up and suddenly struck out with his palm towards her shoulder.

This palm did not move fast, it moved slowly. Princess Baoqing shouted and raised her left palm, preparing to counterattack. Dongfang Zhongyue tripped over and tripped her, "So, now you know that your lower body is unstable, right? If you can't stand steadily, you won't be able to hit anyone no matter how good your martial arts are! "

Princess Baoqing pouted and asked after a while, "Then what should I do?" "I can only take a horse stance?" Yes, you can only do that if you want to keep your position. Where are you going now? When I first squatted down for half a day, I couldn't take the hardships of my life, so how can I be called a master! " Then he sat down and took up his tea.

Princess Baoqing rolled her eyes but didn't say anything. After a while, she went out the door. This time, she had a good eye, so she found a shade tree and took a horse stance. Wang Zhenqing and his horse rode up. He didn't understand martial arts. He looked at Princess Baoqing strangely and asked, "Aunt, what are you doing?

Princess Baoqing looked at him with her white eyes and chided, "You want to interfere? Do what you have to do! " Wang Zhenqing was afraid that this aunt would beat him up, so he immediately walked away obediently. Dongfang Zhongyue heard the sound of greeting and asked urgently: "Brother Chenqing, how is the situation?"

"Let's go in, let's go in, let's talk …" Brother Dongfang, why are you so obedient, my aunt? " Wang Zhenqing was puzzled. "You want to learn kung fu, hehe …" Dongfang Zhongyu gave up his seat to pour some tea and asked again: "Have you found anything?"

"Yes, I found it," Wang Zhenqing answered. "But it was a bit of a mistake." "Why?" "Han Yancui isn't in Feng HengLou's music girl file. I only found a girl surnamed Qi at the Fu Temple's teaching workshop. I remember you saying that your friend's surname was Qi."

Dongfang Zhongyue recalled that Qi Chuyan was indeed at the teachers' temple, and nodded, "Yes, she was sent there."

"Brother Dongfang …" Wang Zhenqing observed his face carefully, "That Qi girl is called Qi Chuyan, she is the youngest daughter of the former Minister of War, Qi Tai. How did you know her?"

"Oh …?" "She is the daughter of the Minister of War..." I really didn't know that when I was stranded in Nanjing, I was starving to death for not having any money. It was Miss Qi who fed me and saved my life. "Hey, did I tell you about this?"

Wang Zhenqing nodded, "You did, but..." I don't quite believe it. "I feel like you have a deep relationship with that Qi girl, and you don't seem to be someone that you have only known for a few days." My father often taught me that I should repay someone's kindness with water, "Zhong Yu said in a deep voice," Not to mention saving my life, Zhong Yu didn't dare to forget about it for the past few years. "

"Brother Dongfang, I admire you," Wang Zhenqing suddenly said. "I had a very good playmate when I was young, and his name was also 'Zhong Yue'." "Is that so?" Dongfang Zhongyu's heart felt warm, but he still showed a surprised expression, "Is there such a coincidence? Is it the same as my name?"

"There's even a coincidence!" Wang Zhenqing looked at him without blinking, "He also looks very similar to you. If you were him, I wouldn't doubt it at all, sigh …" I've been thinking about him all these years. "

"Oh …" Dongfang Zhongyue was so excited that he barely controlled his emotions. "Then, really …" "What a coincidence …" "Then who …?" Outside, Princess Baoqing shouted, "My leg is about to break!" This would help Dongfang Zhongyue a lot, so he took the opportunity to go outside, "Alright, your Highness Princess, you can rest for one hour …"

When Wang Zhenqing came out, Dongfang Zhongyu had already suppressed his excitement and said with a smile: "Brother Chenqing, there are many people with the same surname and similar looks, it's nothing. "Oh right, do you mean to say that Qi Chuyan's household register is still in the Fu Zi Temple's workshop?" "Yes …"

Princess Baoqing walked over with her hands on her hips. "Little Qing …!" Wang Zhenqing did not dare to neglect her and immediately went up to greet her, "What's wrong, Aunt?" It's fine, "Princess Baoqing said, not wanting his support." Go tell your mother that I'll be staying here for the night …. "

"What?" "Wang Zhenqing thought he misheard." How can this be? " Dongfang Zhongyu was very surprised, "You live here..." "Then where should I stay?" "Do you think I can still walk in this state?" Princess Baoqing straightened her back with difficulty. "I don't want to move. I have to stay here!"

Dongfang Zhongyu and Wang Zhenqing looked at each other, Wang Zhenqing kindly advised: "Aunt, the Soundwave Pavilion is too simple and crude, why don't you come and stay in the mansion?"

"No, I live here." Princess Baoqing pointed to Middle Eastern Healing, "He said that if you want to learn martial arts, you must be able to endure hardships." "Besides, isn't it convenient for me to practice martial arts here?" Aunt, this … "Is that convenient?" Wang Zhenqing smiled bitterly.

"What's the matter?" Princess Baoqing said carelessly, "The Grass Hall is so big, can't we just live with two people?" The more Dongfang Zhong didn't know whether to laugh or cry, a thought flashed through his mind, "Brother Chenqing, since the princess likes it, let her stay here for a while, I have some matters to attend to." After he finished speaking, he went over to untie his mount.

"Hey! Where are you going? " Princess Baoqing said angrily, "I want to learn martial arts from you. If you leave, who will I learn from?" Princess, rest for today! I'll be back early tomorrow morning. " Dongfang ZIguo mounted his horse and rode down the mountain, ignoring her cries.

In fact, Dongfang Zhongyue wanted to confirm Han Yancui's real identity. As soon as he saw her, he rushed to the temple. It was late in the morning, and the streets were crowded with people, not far from the old street.

Suddenly a troop of horses appeared in front of them, and, despite the numerous and swift movements of the pedestrians, they all dodged one after another. Zhong Yue, in the east, also reined in his horse and stopped. There was a gourd stall not far in front of his horse. It had been overturned by the people who had avoided the team. Seven or eight gourds were rolling around.

The person selling the gourd was a skinny teenager who rushed out of the crowd to chase the gourd as soon as he saw it rolling onto the street. He was short, and did not even see the horses until he realized they were ten feet away. The boy was scared stiff, and people on the roadside cried out in alarm, but they were afraid that no one would dare to come forward to help if they were hit by a horse.

The more people saw from the horses, the more clear it became that even if the teenager was not killed by the horses, he would still be trampled to death by them. The more Dongfang Jingyue thought about it in this critical moment, the more he didn't think about it at all. His feet pushed off the ground, and before he could reach the horse team, he had already picked up the teenager and rolled to the side of the road.

The horses ahead of him were startled, and one by one they stood up, and two of them fell off their horses. The horses behind them couldn't stop for a while, and they all bumped into each other. The scene was extremely chaotic. The riders were all guards with sabers. Two of them pulled out their sabers in a fit of anger and started to cut towards the east.

In the east, the more he saw one of the horsemen, dressed in a python robe, and he knew that these were the royal guards, the more furious he became at how insolent they were, how they treated the lives of their people like grass. He stretched out his hand and grabbed the left side of the blade to block the right side. With a shake of his hand, he threw the person on the left off the horse.

"Inverse! Inverse!" someone shouted. "Hit me!" Immediately, a dozen men dismounted from their horses and rushed towards the east.
