Chapter 267 [All come for fame and all go for profit](1/2)
The prince-in-law ordered Xue Poye to enter the pavilion and sit down on the stone bench in the hall. Then he smiled and said: "Yi'er told me the day before yesterday that he invited a master to come to the house. I was still wondering what kind of person he was. You know
, there are so many masters in Kyoto, it is really easy to find a master with strong martial arts skills. Since she has found a master from outside, he must be very capable. I still met your master tonight."
Xue Poye hurriedly said: "The prince-in-law has received the award. In fact, the common people are very weak. Thanks to the princess, the princess took a fancy to him, so he took the job timidly. He just wanted to dream of the princess of Yiyuan."
The prince-in-law smiled and said: "There is no need to be frightened in my prince-in-law's house. I guarantee that you will be very safe in my house." After a pause, he slowly said: "Realize your dream? This is really a very tempting thing. I
I think I should thank you on behalf of Yier for helping him realize his dream."
The prince-in-law didn't have much airs, which was something Xue Poye had never thought of before.
The prince-in-law walked to the pavilion, looked up at the sky, and suddenly said: "The moon and stars are sparse and have been covered by dark clouds, and the human heart is covered by the skin. Just like you and me, when we first meet, aren't we both covered by each other? Xue
Stone, what do you think?"
Xue Poye was shocked. There must be something in what the Prince Consort said. Could it be that he knew something?
"The prince-in-law's words will be remembered by me." Xue Poye replied cautiously with a hint of cleverness.
The prince-in-law burst out laughing, returned to the pavilion and sat down and said, "You are very naughty." After a pause, he sighed: "The bustling and bustling all come for fame, and the bustling and bustling all come and go for profit. Living alone in the world, if you don't fight,
Competing for fame and fortune will make you lose a lot of fun. But many people don't understand that when you gain one thing, you may lose a lot of things. When you look back, I'm afraid the most precious things have gone far and will never be obtained again.
.”
Xue Poye listened attentively. He didn't understand how the majestic prince-in-law could express such emotion to a commoner like him. Could it be a warning, or could it be that these were words that he had been holding back in his heart and had never spoken out. Today he encountered
Himself, this is why he sighs with emotion?
If the prince-in-law's words really came from the bottom of his heart, Xue Poye felt that he should be flattered.
"***!" The prince-in-law suddenly said another curse word: "Why do you keep talking about these sour and scummy words? Okay, no more, Xue Shitou, do you want to have a drink with me?
"
"drink wine?"
"No drinking!"
"It turns out that the prince-in-law wants to drink tea, and the common people should accompany him!"
The prince-in-law shook his head with a smile and said: "Don't drink tea either, let's drink honey water!"
When Xue Poye was holding the honey water, he was a little dumbfounded. It was really unbelievable that this prince-in-law did not drink alcohol or tea, but he wanted to drink this honey water.
The honey water is sweet and has an excellent taste.
"Only drinking honey water can make you feel that your life still has a touch of sweetness in the desolate and cold years." The prince consort said slowly.
Xue Poye drank honey water to hide a strange feeling in his heart.
The prince-in-law is a big shot, and he actually had the leisure to chat with him and drink honey water in the pavilion in the big garden. He didn't have any airs and even seemed very calm. Could it be that the prince-in-law is really so approachable and amiable, or maybe it's because he is Princess Yi.
Master, why would he be so speculative with me?
"I heard that before Liu Jin was assassinated, you protected him and even killed two assassins!"
The prince-in-law changed the subject and asked suddenly.
Xue Poye was stunned, and suddenly remembered that that night, in order to pursue Xiaoshi, he was worried that something might happen to him, so he met the assassin in the ginkgo forest of Liuheyuan.
Two assassins.
If it was to protect Liu Jin, it might as well be to protect Xiao Shitou.
"I don't remember much either." Xue Poye chuckled and said, "That thing was so terrible. I always want to forget it quickly. As of today, I have forgotten a lot of things."
"Forgot?" The prince-in-law also laughed: "When you stay in Kyoto for a long time, you will know that what happened in Liuheyuan is just a child's game."
Xue Poye said seriously: "What the consort said is true, so I will pass on my skills to the princess as soon as possible, and then return to my hometown as soon as possible."
The prince-in-law did not speak immediately. He squinted his eyes and had a melancholy look on his beautiful face. After a long while, he said: "Yes, returning to my hometown is the best destination." He pondered for a while and finally said: "Xue Shitou,
Since you have the ability to kill two assassins, you must have some skills. I heard that the two assassins have joined the ranks of the four-level warriors, so you are strong enough to teach Yier Kung Fu. I also heard that you are an expert in archery.
He is very accomplished in martial arts and can hit the target in three hundred steps, which is really rare, so I will leave it to you, Yi'er."
Xue Poye hurriedly stood up and saluted: "The common people will obey the orders of the prince-in-law!"
The prince-in-law nodded and waved: "Go, it's late, go to bed early."
Xue Poye left the pavilion and suddenly heard the consort saying calmly behind him: "Xue Shitou, no matter what you did before entering the consort's house or what you wanted to do, from now on, you must forget it and focus on teaching Yi
Son, I don’t want you to be distracted by other things, do you understand what I mean?”
Xue Poye's body trembled, but he did not look back and said softly: "The common people understand."
Does the Prince Consort really know anything? Or, in other words, the Prince Consort just uses such language to test himself?
The water in Kyoto is too muddy and the fish are too mixed. As the Prince Consort said just now, everyone's heart is covered by skin, everyone has a mask, and everyone does their best to maintain their mask. Who can
Can you see the true face under the mask?
Since others have it, of course the Prince Consort will also have it. Whether he likes it or not, he will put on a mask in front of his real face, and Xue Poye naturally has his own mask.
The prince-in-law's heart may not be as beautiful as his face, and his method is certainly not just playing the piano and drinking honey water.
Back in the house, Xue Poye did not go to sleep immediately. He had to digest what the prince-in-law said. He wanted to make sure whether the prince-in-law really knew anything. If the prince-in-law was just testing, he would naturally have to be extremely careful in what he does in the future. But if the prince-in-law really knew something,
If he knew something, he had to come up with countermeasures as soon as possible. He had even thought that although he didn't realize that there were eyes staring at him, his words and deeds in Kyoto would probably be known to the beautiful prince-consort.
My purpose is to deal with the affairs of Chrysanthemum and Peach Blossom, not to be a master in the Prince Consort's Mansion. If the situation changes, then I must get rid of the shell of Prince Consort's Mansion.
Hope you have good luck!
Early on the next morning, a guest suddenly came to the Prince Consort's Mansion, and this guest was actually Princess Yi's guest.
At this time, Xue Poye was teaching Princess Yi how to string strings skillfully. He was teaching and learning very seriously. Hua Gongwei and several other people were also listening carefully. Those who are near the water and towers get the moon first. There is such a magical arrow.
A master of martial arts always has to learn something.
It wasn't until a burst of applause sounded that a few people came back to their senses.
Among the flowers, a noble man slowly walked out, with a smile on his face, and clapped his hands and said: "Okay, okay, I heard that the little princess recently got an archery master. I thought it was just a lie. After hearing a few words today, I realized that it is indeed an archery master.
What a powerful character, Miaomiaomiao!”
Xue Poye frowned and looked at this person. He saw a young man in brown brocade clothes standing next to him under a Guanyin bamboo tree. He had a purple jade belt tied around his waist. He was wearing climbing boots and a Myanmarese hat on his head.
The jade crown, akimbo, looks extremely impressive.
He is not handsome, but he is very masculine. His skin is slightly dark, his eyebrows are very thick, his lips are thick, and his smile is very friendly, just like the big brother next door.
As soon as Princess Yi saw the man, she immediately covered her mouth and said with a smile: "Second cousin, why are you here?"
Second cousin?
Xue Poye breathed a sigh of relief. He thought he was some big shot, but it turned out to be just a cousin. Suddenly he felt something was wrong. With the identity of Princess Yi, the so-called cousin was either from the eldest princess or the consort, no matter which side,
Those are all great people in Kyoto.
If the consort is okay, then the eldest princess’s cousin is...the prince!
Seeing the aura of the young man and the chic smile on his face, Xue Poye's heart moved. If he were asked to judge whether this young man was a prince, his answer would be yes.
Sure enough, when the young man came over, Hua Gongwei and several of his subordinates knelt down on one knee and said respectfully: "See the Second Prince!"
This is truly a prince!
Princess Yi was a little surprised when she saw Xue Poye, and whispered: "Master, this is the second prince, Liu Ziyin, we all call him Prince Yin!"
Prince Yin had already approached, stretched out his hand, and said: "Bow!"
Hua Gongwei immediately offered his bow and arrow, and Prince Yin took it with a smile. He looked at the target in front of him and said softly: "We are only about two hundred steps away from the target." He turned back and actually walked a hundred steps.
Then he stopped, drew his bow and nocked an arrow, aimed at the target, and prepared to shoot.
Xue Poye was curious, could it be that Prince Yin also had the ability to penetrate the heart with three hundred steps? If so, Princess Yi must also know, why didn't she learn archery from this prince?
"call out"!
The arrow left the bow and shot out very sharply.
Xue Poye breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the direction of the arrow. As an expert in arrows, Xue Poye could tell the quality of the arrow from the traces of the arrow shot by Prince Yin.
Although this arrow is powerful and not slow, the accuracy of the combination is really poor. More importantly, his shooting method is very ordinary. Usually, this kind of arrow will be strong first and then weak. At first it seems
It is extremely powerful, but as long as it passes a hundred steps away, its momentum will weaken and it will be impossible to follow up.
Sure enough, when Prince Yin's arrow passed a hundred steps, it slowed down. Before it reached two hundred steps, it fell to the ground with a "snap".
The Hua Palace Guards all showed regret, but no one dared to laugh at Prince Yin's archery skills, but in their hearts they admired Xue Poye's archery skills. Prince Yin's archery skills were in contrast to Xue Poye's archery skills.
of cleverness.
Prince Yin is naturally a famous figure in Kyoto. Many people know that Prince Yin has the style of Meng Chang in ancient times. He has many disciples and people from three religions and nine schools. As long as Prince Yin likes him, he will definitely be included in his disciples, so his disciples
It can also be regarded as a wealth of talents.
There were also censors who complained, claiming that Prince Yin’s accommodation was chaotic and might be suspected of gathering crowds to create momentum, but His Majesty the Emperor easily refuted these people, so Prince Yin still accepted his disciples, and the censors did not.
No matter how much he said, the courtiers all knew that their emperor was a stubborn person, and his decisions were almost impossible to change. Since he insisted on letting Prince Yin go, no one was willing to take the risk of offending Prince Yin and continue to remonstrate.
"Now I know that Master Xue's ability is really extraordinary." Prince Yin sighed: "If I didn't shoot it myself, who knows what it would be like to penetrate the heart in three hundred steps, and how difficult it would be."
