Chapter 12 Promoted to Second Class
During the night when Ke Guiren committed suicide by drinking poisonous alcohol, Wei Yang asked many questions about the contents of the Sutra for Washing the Marrow of the Lotus, and Li Qing answered them one by one.
Every night since then, Wei Yang will ask questions about martial arts, but Li Qing never hides his secrets from those who understand.
Based on Wei Yang's mind, Li Qing doesn't explain, Wei Yang can probably find other people to ask, why not sell Wei Yang's favor, if Wei Yang can ride the wind in the future, he can also give him a little help.
Half a month later, Wei Yang reported the matter of practicing martial arts to the Martial Supervisor, and officially began to practice.
On the day when Wei Yang formally practiced, he found Li Qing and said, "Master Li, the secret of my kung fu is not to be revealed. If there is success in the future, there will be rich rewards."
Li Qing chuckled: "Take care of yourself."
Advising Wei Yang is just like advising Wang Li to run a stew shop a few years ago. Li Qing does what he wants without expecting anything in return.
If you can get something in return, that would be the best.
Li Qing has a hundred lifetimes of time, and will meet all kinds of people. Take everything slowly, and there may be a lot of suggestions in the future.
I have played a lot of Go, and I always like to play chess everywhere.
…
A few days later.
Pear Garden.
Li Qing leaned under a pear tree, watching the maids in the garden dance.
"Time flies, I'm already thirty-three."
Li Qing couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
Time has left many mottled marks on his face. He is not immortal, nor is his face permanent. The body will age naturally with time, and there is no need to disguise it.
As long as he lives a normal life, no one will be able to find out that he is abnormal, even immortals.
After all, Baishibei rejuvenates, so does bone age.
When the immortal sees him, he only feels that he is similar to a certain person from hundreds of years ago.
Everyone is getting old, but the sisters in Liyuan are always young and never get tired of watching.
"Hey, little Lizi, which girl do you have your eye on, come here every day to see." A woman in palace makeup approached and gave Li Qing a hey.
"I've taken a fancy to you, how about a match?" Li Qing said happily.
The woman in palace makeup smiled on her face: "When will you leave the cold palace, I will think about it."
"Then don't think about it, I'm afraid I'm going to die of old age."
"You're funny."
Very ordinary conversations, Li Qing has experienced countless times in these years.
Back when he was promoted to a third-rate master, there was a court lady who really invited him to eat in a pair, but it was the old lady...
…
The day came to October thirteenth.
A letter from Wang Li caused quite a stir in the cold palace.
Decree of the Ministry of Criminal Justice ordered Ke Daoling's family, the former commander of the Zuoying Army of the Forbidden Army, to be beheaded on the ninth day of October.
On the ninth day of the lunar new year, the White Lotus Sect rioted in the capital. Many masters robbed the dharma field together, and even the dead Bailian attacked the Heavenly Prison and Imperial Prison. The Heavenly Prison was broken and the capital was in chaos.
Fortunately, the imperial court was well prepared, and Jin Yiwei and Dongchang all mobilized to kill all the White Lotus Sect members.
But as a professional rebel, the White Lotus Sect can stand for several dynasties without falling, and it has its own ability.
During the attack, Jin Yiwei and Dongchang suffered heavy losses. Some Bailian sect dead soldiers even planned to attack the palace at one point, but were directly shot into hedgehogs by the Imperial Forest Army.
The white lotus sect disciples who fled here and there robbed and killed civilians all over the capital, and many households were affected.
What worried Li Qing and others was Wang Li.
Wang Li's brine shop was destroyed in the fight, Wang Li's adopted son lost a leg, and Wang Li was hit in the eye by debris, blinding his left eye.
"The White Lotus Sect of the dog day, you really are not a son of man!" Zhang Yong cursed anxiously.
"It's really dangerous outside, but the palace is safe." Li Qing sighed.
During these years of being a **** in Leng Gong, Li Qing has encountered small troubles, but they are not serious. As long as there are no major problems in principle, his life will be safe.
After hearing the news, Wei Yang didn't say a word, just practiced silently.
…
Time is like running water, and another five years have passed, the twenty-seventh year of Taikang, spring.
Lenggong dormitory.
With a loud bang, the water tank exploded, Li Qing walked out naked, and put on his clothes casually.
"Five years have passed, and I finally got through the sixth rule, and officially entered the second-rate master!"
Li Qing wanted to let out a long roar, but finally held back.
Since the White Lotus Sect rioted in the capital, it has been five years in the blink of an eye. Li Qingxiu has been steadily improving.
Being a second-rate master, walking in the rivers and lakes is considered a guarantee, and will not be easily beheaded.
However, Li Qing only masters internal skills, and he doesn't understand both light and external skills.
Li Qing didn't care either, he didn't have to fight anyone in a short time, as long as time kept going, he could always crush invincible with his powerful internal force.
You can resist the internal force of one hundred years, but what about three hundred years?
Immediately, Li Qing warned himself again: "Don't be complacent, Wei Nu, a kid who was in the same realm as you back then, opened up the second line of Ren Du and became a super master three months ago. He is only sixteen years old."
"However, since we have made a breakthrough, we have to celebrate."
"Play chess?"
Li Qing shook his head. Since Wang Li left, the enthusiasm of the eunuchs in the cold palace to play chess has greatly decreased. Although Li Qing taught the new eunuchs in the cold palace to play chess, he couldn't learn it well.
When playing chess, no one in the cold palace is his single enemy.
Besides Wang Li, it has been two years since Wang Li died.
Two years ago, Wang Li's son wrote a letter saying that Wang Li, who was blind in his left eye and was getting worse, was killed by thieves who broke into his home, and the thieves also robbed hundreds of taels of silver.
The thief seems to be called a deadly thief.
It is indeed dangerous outside the palace. Those thieves in the dark night are hard to guard against. In this world, there are still too many martial arts masters.
Although Wang Li died, his son gave Li Qing a lot of dividends, and he sent a letter every half a month, hoping that a new **** from the cold palace would come out of the palace to take care of him.
With Wang Li's death, his son couldn't speak to the **** of Sishi, and the business of the stew shop became more and more difficult.
Among the twelve cold palace eunuchs, the oldest one is Zhang Yong. He is forty-five years old, and he is still five years away from being able to apply for leaving the palace.
Originally, there were three older ones, who died of illness in the past two or three years, and three new eunuchs entered the Leng Palace. Li Qing was thirty-eight years old, and ranked sixth in terms of age.
I think that when he first time traveled, he was just the youngest in the cold palace...
Things are right and people are wrong.
"Let's go to Liyuan."
Li Qing took a walk around the Liyuan. This time he was lucky. For the first time in twenty years, he saw a concubine dancing!
That concubine is Concubine Min who has just entered the palace. As soon as she entered the palace, she was directly named a second-rank concubine, and she was deeply loved by Emperor Taikang.
Yes.
Emperor Taikang is still under house arrest, but the queen mother is his biological mother. As long as Emperor Taikang does not fight for power, the queen mother will not make things difficult. Emperor Taikang is living a good life and has accepted many concubines over the years.
However, recently there was news that the Empress Dowager was ill, and Emperor Taikang, who had been seriously injured for fifteen years, was gradually recovering.
As the saying goes, a new round of turmoil for power is likely to come soon.
There will not be many opportunities to sneak into the Liyuan in the future.
After Liyuan came out, Li Qing stopped by Shangwujian to report his realm: Li Qing, Lenggong Wupin eunuch, thirty-eight years old, second-rate.
Thirty-eight-year-old second-rate master, not very good, if Shangwu Supervisor knows that Li Qing will become first-rate in ten years, then he will take care of him a little bit.
Back to the cold palace.
"Master Li, where are you breaking through?" Wei Yang felt Li Qing's difference and asked.
"Well, you work hard." Li Qing patted Wei Yang on the shoulder and smiled.
Wei Yang's qualifications are better than Li Qing's, and he has also practiced the Tailian Sutra of Washing the Marrow. In the past five years, he has opened up four serious sutras.
The Dingyou iron house in the Lenggong was demolished long ago.
Concubine Li, who had been imprisoned in the iron room for more than ten years, died not long after Wei Yang broke through to the third-rate master.
The status of the imperial concubine Li is not ordinary, and after her death, the **** of the Martial Arts Supervisor came to investigate.
After some investigation, it was only determined that: Concubine Li Gui committed suicide.
