Chapter Nine: Kublai Khan
After a few days, the three of them arrived at the southern camp where Kublai Khan was stationed. Jin Lun arranged for Li Liuyan and Guo Xiang to report to Kublai Khan.
As Jin Lun was a Mongolia teacher, his treatment was extraordinary. He valued Li Liuyan's talent and wanted to recommend her to the prince, and he also wanted to take Guo Xiang as his disciple. Thus, the place they arranged was exceptionally luxurious.
Li Liuyan hadn't taken a bath since the last time she met the bandits. Now that she had the chance, she quickly took a hot bath, shaved her face, and changed into a new set of clothes. She immediately felt refreshed.
When Li Liuyan arrived at Guo Xiang's place, Guo Xiang looked at her from head to toe.
Li Liuyan flicked her hair and said,[How is it? I told you I'm very handsome.]
Guo Xiang said,"As expected, a fair and clean woman like you in female clothing is definitely a first-class beauty." [Haha.]
Li Liuyan could do nothing about Guo Xiang's words. Nowadays, the so-called androgynous beauty was popular. Women with short hair and a rough voice were beautiful, while men with long hair and a soft and weak voice were men. In such an environment, Li Liuyan was not as forthright as Guo Xiang.
Li Liuyan said," Ahem, you really have no taste. This is called the temperament of a scholar. Do you understand, little girl?"]
As the two of them were frolicking, the voice of " Greetings, Your Highness " came from outside. Then, two people came in. One was the bald Jin Lun, and the other was the Fourth Prince, Kublai Khan.
Kublai Khan rushed in and shouted,[Which one of you is Mr. Li who can predict life and death?]
Li Liuyan was depressed. According to his thoughts, the golden wheel should have brought him to meet Kublai Khan after dinner. Now, Kublai Khan came without invitation. Looking at his driving, he was like Liu Bei. He wanted to scare me with his personal welcome. However, it's too exaggerated for you to come here personally just because of the golden wheel. You can pretend, but you don't have to call him a prophet. There are only two people in the room, and you already called him mister. Naturally, it's not Guo Xiang. Alright, if I don't act cool, it'll be a waste of your efforts.
Li Liuyan proudly glanced at Hubilai.[Oh, it's Lord Four. I knew you'd be here.]]
Guo Xiang thought to himself, Big Brother Li's expression changes so quickly. He was having fun with me just now, but in the blink of an eye, he's so deep.]
In his early years, Kublai Khan once had a physiognomist who predicted that he would be able to become noble with the help of gods in the future. Hu Bilie was convinced, so when he heard Jin Lun say that it was a fortune teller, he hurried over. Seeing Li Liuyan's arrogant appearance, he remembered that the fortune teller in the past was also arrogant. As expected, capable people are all so pretentious.] He was even more respectful towards Li Liuyan.
Li Liuyan said,[If you have any questions, just say it. There's no need to fix the shop.]]
Hence, they were able to answer each other's questions. Li Liuyan relied on her understanding of history to say something that was clear, and she managed to deceive Kublai Khan. The original [This King] has become [Little King]
After half a cup of tea's worth of time, Kublai Khan made his judgment.[He's really a god.]
Li Liuyan deliberately yawned. Hubilai Khan hurriedly said,[Sir, you must be tired from the journey. Rest early.]] Then, he left.
Seeing that Lord Four had left, Jin Lun said,"Xiang 'er, you still have three months before you leave the Unrequited Love Valley. Shouldn't you take me as your master and learn martial arts first?"
Guo Xiang shook his head and said,"Aiya, I won't learn, I won't learn. Didn't you say that you would only acknowledge me as your master after defeating Big Brother?" One cannot go back on one's word, not to mention that you are a Mongolia teacher.]
The Golden Wheel had been obedient to Guo Xiang for the past few days, which had improved his impression of him, but he still refused to acknowledge him as his master. It was still too early to leave the Unrequited Love Valley. Guo Xiang was like a piece of beautiful jade. Only the golden wheel could look at it, but he was not allowed to carve it. He was so anxious that he made a report to Guo Xiang every day.
Jin Lun was a monk and had no children. He valued Guo Xiang very much and wanted to pass on his legacy. He treated her as his own daughter and doted on her. He did not even dare to speak harshly. He could only beg bitterly every day.
Li Liuyan saw that Jin Lun had come again and pulled him to the side," Monk, I have a way to let Xiang 'er learn your martial arts.]
Jin Lun was delighted when he heard this,"What method?"]
Li Liuyan didn't say anything. She stretched out her hand and waited for a long time. Jin Lun didn't respond. He was just standing there, waiting for her to speak.
Li Liuyan said,[No way. You've lived for so long. Don't tell me you're not embarrassed to ask for help?] Gold, silver, jewelry, martial arts manuals, etc., you should also give some.]
Jin Lun didn't expect Li Liuyan to threaten him. He said angrily,[Are you courting death?]
Li Liuyan said,[It's up to you then. You should wait until February next year before accepting a disciple.]]
Jin Lun had no choice but to throw over an ingot of silver.
Li Liuyan said loudly,"No, you're just patronizing me?"]
Jin Lun gritted his teeth and said,"How much do you want?"]
Li Liuyan said,[I heard that you're the Five Chakra Dharma King. You have two wheels that are made of gold and silver…]
Jin Lun said angrily,"Don't even think about it!"]
Li Liuyan pursed her lips and said,"Then there's no other way."]
Finally, Li Liuyan gave way and took the golden wheel, leaving the silver wheel for the mage.
Li Liuyan said," Method? Didn't you boast that your kung fu is peerless? Then you can demonstrate it in front of Guo Xiang. If your kung fu is really good and it's free, Guo Xiang will definitely be tempted to learn it. After a while, she will learn all of your kung fu. Do you think she is your disciple?" If she doesn't learn, it means that your kung fu is too bad and she doesn't like it. Don't waste your time.]
Jin Lun paused for a moment. He felt pretty good and went back to look for Guo Xiang.
The next day, Li Liuyan had just woken up when she saw Lord Four coming again. There was also a monk following behind him. Li Liuyan thought it was a golden wheel, but when she got closer, it wasn't.
Seeing this, Kublai Khan introduced,"Mr. Li, this is the military advisor of Little Wang. His Dharma name is Zicong."]
Li Liuyan recalled that there was indeed such a person by Hu Bilie's side. It was the person who gave Zhou Botong poisoned wine.
Zi Cong looked at Li Liuyan and said,"This must be Li Banxian, the one that Your Highness is full of praise for. Can you read my fortune?"]
When Li Liuyan heard his tone, she knew that he was unhappy with her and thought that he was here to steal his job. He thought to himself, How would I know about your life when there's no introduction in the book?] But he said,"Sir, half of your body is already in the ground. What's the difference between counting and not counting?"]
Zi Cong was already over sixty years old and almost spat out blood when he heard this. He was about to curse when Li Liuyan said,"[Knowing human life is just a small trick, how can it be called elegant? Only by observing the astronomical phenomena can we come up with a plan to stabilize the country, and a good way to govern the country is our way.]
"Teacher, teach me!" Kublai Khan said happily.]
Li Liuyan said,[The country is rich and the people are strong. The wealth of the country is the foundation of everything. Today, I'll talk to you about the theory of a rich country.]] With that, she turned around and went into the house.
Kublai Lie hurriedly followed, completely forgetting his old subordinate who was still standing at the door.
