The carriage moved slowly.
In the carriage, Luo Qingzhou's mind was full of random thoughts, and the expression on his face kept changing.
Yuewu sat opposite him, looking at him quietly, her eyes full of tenderness.
Naturally, she also knew what happened at the border this time.
This young man single-handedly turned the tide, helped His Majesty, and saved the entire Dayan.
Your Majesty was right about the person.
She... certainly wasn't wrong.
The carriage quickly entered the imperial city.
Luo Qingzhou came back to his senses, looked into her gentle eyes, paused, and said softly: "Last time... are you okay?"
Yuewu was startled for a moment, then she understood what he was talking about. Her cheeks immediately turned red, and she lowered her head shyly and said, "No, it's okay."
Luo Qingzhou said: "It's good that you're okay."
The carriage became quiet again.
Yuewu lowered her head, her face full of shyness, and didn't dare to look at him again.
The journey was smooth sailing.
The carriage carrying the two people soon stopped in front of Yaohua Palace.
Luo Qingzhou got off the carriage first.
When Yuewu came out of the carriage with her head down, her heart was beating fast, she found that he had not left first, but was waiting downstairs.
"Come, I'll help you."
Luo Qingzhou stretched out his hand.
Yuewu was stunned and couldn't help but think of the past scene.
Once when he got off the carriage, she stretched out her hand and wanted to help him down, but he refused.
"Thank you... Thank you, sir."
Her eyes misted over and she slowly stretched out her slender hand.
Luo Qingzhou held her soft, boneless little hand, directly hugged her slender waist, and carried her down from the carriage. He even spun her around on the ground before putting her on the ground, praising her: "Miss Yuewu is indeed worthy of being a dancer, her body is soft and gentle, as if she has no bones."
Yuewu felt sweet in her heart. She looked at him lovingly and said, "Sir, do you want to see Yuewu dance?"
"No time for now."
Luo Qingzhou let her go and said, "Let's go. National affairs are important."
Yuewu nodded seriously.
The two of them entered Yaohua Palace, one in front and one behind.
Luo Qingzhou entered the palace and went straight to the study room as if he was familiar with it. When he was about to push the door open, he suddenly remembered his current identity and had to stop there.
Yuewu followed and said respectfully to the room: "Your Majesty, Master Luo is here."
The Queen's majestic voice came from the room: "Let him in."
"Squeak..."
Yue Wu gently pushed open the door and said respectfully, "Mr. Luo, please come in."
Luo Qingzhou lowered his head slightly and walked in.
When the door closed, he looked up.
Her Majesty the Queen was wearing a fiery red dress embroidered with dragons and a golden crown on her head. She was sitting behind the platform with a dignified and imposing manner, looking at him with a majestic expression.
Luo Qingzhou looked at her now dignified, majestic and superior appearance of a queen, and his mind couldn't help but reappear her appearance of begging for mercy coquettishly and lying motionless last night, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but twitch.
However, there were other people in the room, so he didn't dare show any abnormality.
"Your Majesty, I, Luo Qingzhou, pay my respects to you!"
He bowed his head and bowed his hands, very respectfully.
Bai Yishen, dressed in a white Confucian robe, stood in front of the window, looking at him with a half-smile on his face.
The room was quiet for a moment.
Nangong Huoyue suddenly said in a cold voice: "Okay, stop pretending."
Luo Qingzhou froze for a moment, and could only bow to Bai Yishan again and said, "Greetings, Senior Bai."
Bai Yishan couldn't help but laugh and said, "Wearing a warrior's outfit, he looks heroic and arrogant; wearing a scholar's robe, he looks elegant, refined and humble. Not bad, not bad."
Luo Qingzhou's face was filled with embarrassment.
Bai Yishan smiled and did not mention his identity any more. He walked over, sat down at the table and said, "Qingzhou, please sit down. I came here today to discuss something with you."
Luo Qingzhou didn't hesitate to be polite. He walked to the table, sat down and listened attentively.
Bai Yishan's brows showed a solemn expression, and he said, "Your Majesty should have told you that the Piao Miao Xian Sect has turned against my Great Yan, saying that their elders and disciples were innocently killed in my Great Yan, so they may bring people to my Great Yan to cause trouble in the next few days."
"As for what they want to do specifically, we don't know yet. However, we are ready. If they want to take action, we will not sit idly by."
Luo Qingzhou asked: "How is the injury of the senior?"
Bai Yishan sighed upon hearing this and said, "The internal injuries are quite severe and cannot be healed for the time being. If the other party wants to attack this time, we can only rely on our Great Yan warrior army."
Luo Qingzhou said: "Then the senior asked me to come today..."
Bai Yishan looked at him and said, "Now that my Great Yan culture has revived, and you have extraordinary talent, I would like to take you as my disciple and teach you some Confucian and Taoist cultivation techniques..."
"Senior, I..."
Luo Qingzhou was about to speak, but Bai Yishan waved his hand and said, "Listen to me first. I know that you don't have enough time to practice both body and soul. Moreover, for any practitioner, practicing too many different things will affect the speed and quality of the main practice, and eventually become mediocre."
"In fact, my opinion is the same as your majesty's. We both hope that you will continue on your current path. As for Confucianism and Taoism, you can just take a look at them. You don't have to practice them."
"The reason why I want to accept you as my disciple is also for your sake. The main reason is that you now have two identities, which is often inconvenient. If you can become my Confucian disciple as Luo Qingzhou, if you are forced to reveal your cultivation in the future, you will have an explanation. And in this way, no one will doubt your two identities..."
After a pause, he continued, "Also, I want to find someone to pass on my Confucian and Taoist skills. The situation in Da Yan is unclear now, and I don't know when I will die, so I want to pass on everything I have learned in my life to you. If you find a suitable candidate in the future, you can pass it on to that person. In this way, the Confucianism and Taoism of our Da Yan will not be cut off..."
"Of course, if we can survive this disaster, I will set up a special Confucianism course in Dragon Tiger College, so that all scholars in the world can have the opportunity to practice Confucianism..."
"Qingzhou, I believe that Confucianism will continue to exist in our Great Yan..."
"In my heart, you are the spark of Confucianism."
"After you become my disciple, your status and position will change, and it will be easier to carry on the Confucian tradition..."
"You are the hope of my Great Yan, not just Confucianism."
"His Majesty has high hopes for you and has entrusted the future of the entire Great Yan to you. Although the responsibility is heavy, we all believe that you can protect Great Yan and continue to lead Great Yan..."
He sighed again: "So, if the Piao Miao Xian Zong is determined to kill you this time, you must survive. Only if you survive, there will be hope for our Da Yan..."
"They hate Chu Feiyang to the core, so Chu Feiyang couldn't go out that day. But Luo Qingzhou can go out as my disciple..."
Luo Qingzhou listened quietly, his heart filled with emotions.
After he finished speaking, he stood up without any hesitation and bowed: "Student Luo Qingzhou, greetings, sir."
In the academy, the gentleman is the master.
Bai Yishan was pleased and nodded slightly, saying, "Okay, okay. I am old and frail, and I will die without regrets if I can have a student like you."
After that, he took out a few books from his sleeves, handed them in front of him, and said, "These are books that introduce my Confucianism and Taoism. One of them is about the basic cultivation methods, distinguishing literary qi and articles, perceiving the literary qi of heaven and earth, and condensing the literary mind and courage. It all introduces them in it."
"Take it back and read it carefully a few times. If you don't understand anything, you can ask me."
"If it were someone else, I would have to explain and teach them word by word face to face, but you don't have to. You are a man of both body and soul, and you are talented. The contents of the book are easy to understand. I believe that with your intelligence, you will understand it at a glance."
"The reason why I don't explain it to you is because my Confucian and Taoist practice is actually an article. Everyone who reads the article has their own opinions and insights. I don't want to impose my own opinions and insights on you."
"I believe that with your talent, what you can comprehend will definitely be better than mine."
Luo Qingzhou took the book respectfully.
Bai Yishan carefully reminded him of the most critical pages of knowledge in the book, and then said: "Don't feel any pressure, just remember the content. Your most important thing now is to practice your own martial arts and soul. You can show these books to anyone, as long as you think the other person is qualified to read it, not limited to the people of Dayan. As long as the other person has a talent for Confucianism, it's fine."
Luo Qingzhou put away the book solemnly and nodded.
Bai Yishen discussed the distribution of troops in Kyoto with the two of them before he stood up and said goodbye.
Luo Qingzhou and Nangong Huoyue accompanied him to the corridor outside.
After the other party flew away on a sword, the two returned to the room.
Luo Qingzhou sat down at the table again, took out one of the books and began to read it carefully.
Nangong Huoyue sat aside and looked at him quietly.
The afternoon passed quickly.
In the evening.
The communication token on Luo Qingzhou's body suddenly vibrated.
Only then did he remember that he had forgotten to go to Long'er's place.
He quickly took out the message and replied: Long Er, I'm sorry, I encountered some things in the afternoon, I will come to you in the evening
Long Er didn't say much, and replied: Oh, if you are too busy, forget it.
Today's Xiaolongnu is particularly gentle and considerate.
Luo Qingzhou put away the message and continued to look through the third book.
Yuewu brought a sumptuous dinner.
After he finished reading the third book, Nangong Huoyue said softly, "Let's eat something first."
Only then did Luo Qingzhou put down the book and come back to his senses.
I turned around and saw that it had gotten dark outside the window.
"Well, thank you, Your Majesty."
He walked to the stone table next to him and sat down.
Nangong Huoyue knelt beside him, picked up the wine pot with her jade hands, and poured wine for him personally, saying softly: "Fruit wine can relieve fatigue, but it won't make you drunk."
Luo Qingzhou picked up the wine glass and turned to look at her.
Her Majesty the Queen was still wearing the crown and the wide fiery red dragon robe, but her expression at this moment was exceptionally gentle, and her fair face was particularly beautiful and charming under the light.
Luo Qingzhou couldn't help but say: "Your Majesty is so beautiful."
Nangong Huoyue looked at him quietly. After a few breaths, she suddenly put down the wine pot with a "dong" sound. Her beautiful eyes narrowed, and her pretty face regained the dignity and coldness of an empress. She said coldly: "Sir, please respect yourself! I am the king, and you are the minister. What's more, you have a beautiful wife and concubines at home! Moreover, I am also a married woman! If my husband hears this, sir, be careful of his fists!"
Luo Qingzhou: “…”
Nangong Huoyue looked at him seriously with a cold face, but soon, she couldn't hold it anymore, and the corner of her mouth moved, and she said, "Sir, why are you looking at me like this?"
"Nothing."
Luo Qingzhou picked up the wine glass, raised his head, and drank it all in one gulp. Then he took out the mask in front of her and put it on his face. He instantly turned into Chu Feiyang, and then looked at her and said, "Madam, are you hungry? Come here and kneel down. Your husband will feed you."
Nangong Huoyue: "..."
The room was silent for a few seconds.
Both of them couldn't help but twitch the corners of their mouths.
"How dare you, traitor! You should kneel down before me and beg me to feed you! Kneel down!"
"Isn't this minister kneeling?"
Nangong Huoyue chuckled, showing her charm, picked a grape from the fruit plate beside her, stuffed it into his mouth, and also put her fingers in it.
“So sweet.”
"What's sweet? Grapes?"
"Of course your majesty."
"Smooth talk!"
"Your Majesty, don't you like it?"
"like."
Luo Qingzhou hugged her.
Nangong Huoyue hurriedly pushed him and said, "No, no, wait a few days, I...you last night..."
Luo Qingzhou smiled and said, "As a queen, it's shameful for you to be so incompetent."
"Say it later!"
Nangong Huoyue suddenly became angry and started to pinch him.
The couple played around on the floor for a while before getting up and continuing to eat dinner and talk about business.
"Is your soul really going to break through again?"
"Yes, it's coming soon. Should it be these few days?"
"There is still thunder tribulation?"
"Should be, hopefully it will be in time by then."
"I hope it doesn't come to that. Even though you are powerful, you can't possibly compete with the entire Piao Miao Xian Sect."
"I know, I will only use it when I have no other choice. I have to go back later, and then I will go to Lingxiao Sect to practice."
"Well, thank you for your hard work."
"For Your Majesty, this little bit of hard work is nothing... Ah! Your Majesty, why are you pinching me again?"
"I think you've been having a hard time flirting with other girls! Your beautiful master and fierce uncle are still waiting for you, right?"
"Your Majesty, you misunderstood..."
"Hmph, don't treat me as a fool!"
Luo Qingzhou didn't dare to say anything more. After finishing dinner, he said goodbye and left.
Nangong Huoyue accompanied him all the way to the outside of Yaohua Palace. After watching him get on the carriage, she said, "Sir, I am waiting for your good news."
The carriage drove away slowly, surrounded by guards.
Luo Qingzhou went back to the Qin Mansion first.
The spiritual liquid in the porcelain bottle seemed to be insufficient, so the second young lady collected it for him every day and placed it in the corner of the table.
He will probably need a lot of things for this breakthrough, so he should take them all.
When he returned to Meixiang Garden, Miss Qin Er had not yet gone to bed. She was sitting on the couch, wearing a snow-white fox fur coat, reading a book quietly.
When Luo Qingzhou entered the room, she immediately took off her fox fur coat, put on a plain white dress, ran over happily, threw herself into his arms, and said softly, "I thought Brother Qingzhou had left."
Luo Qingzhou held her in his arms, stroking her hair, his heart full of guilt, and said: "I'm back to get some spiritual liquid, but I still have to go. I'll be back in a few days."
Miss Qin Er then left his arms, raised her beautiful face and said, "It doesn't matter. Cultivation is more important. Wei Mo will wait for Brother Qingzhou at home."
Luo Qingzhou sighed secretly in his heart, rubbed her head gently, and then went to the window to collect the spiritual liquid.
He glanced at the books on the table and asked, "Are there any books that interest you recently?"
Miss Qin sighed softly and said, "Compared to the stories that Brother Qingzhou told, this is far inferior. Wei Mo is almost sleepy after reading them."
Luo Qingzhou stroked her delicate face and said, "When I have time, I will write more stories for you."
"Um."
Miss Qin Er looked at him tenderly, like a little girl eagerly waiting for candy.
Luo Qingzhou thought about it and looked at his storage ring, wanting to find some interesting books in it, but he found that apart from some pharmacopoeias, there were books that were not suitable for young girls, such as jade feet illustrations and erotic pictures.
Just as he was about to give up, his eyes suddenly turned to the books that Mr. Jinri had given him.
Confucian and Taoist books
For some reason, when his eyes fell on it, his heart suddenly trembled.
Today, the cultural spirit of Dayan has revived, and there is more cultural energy between heaven and earth.
Those scholars, especially talented ones, may have the opportunity to comprehend the literary spirit of heaven and earth and practice cultivation.
Regardless of gender!
Regardless of... Male or female...
Thinking of this, he looked at the weak girl in front of him.
Miss Qin Er saw that he looked strange and asked in confusion: "Brother Qingzhou, what's wrong with you? Why are you looking at Weimo like that?"
Then she bit her pink lips again and said shyly: "Brother Qingzhou, don't you want to let Weimo..."
As she spoke, her cheeks flushed slightly, she lowered her head, and her body slowly lowered down.
Luo Qingzhou quickly pulled her aside and said, "Wei Mo, I have a few good books here. I'll leave them at home for you to read carefully. If you don't understand anything, tell the princess and ask her to send me a message."
As he spoke, he took out several Confucian and Taoist books and placed them solemnly on the table.
Then he reminded me seriously, "These books are very valuable. You can only read them in the room. You can't take them out, and don't show them to other people. Do you understand?"
Miss Qin Er was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly remembered what Sister Meijiao had whispered to her. She blushed and said coquettishly: "Brother Qingzhou, you are so mean... You actually let me read that kind of book..."
"Humph, I'm going to show it to my sister and let her punish you!"
Luo Qingzhou: “???”
