Li Er glanced at the mountain pond and turned around."It's still early. I've prepared some wine. Why don't we go to the royal pavilion in the mountain pool and have a chat?”
"Wonderful, wonderful."
"Your Majesty, what a good suggestion."
Li Er ordered the eunuchs to prepare some delicious food and wine. He took the lead and entered the pavilion of the Mountain Water Pool. After entering the pavilion, he saw a group of people.
Just as the group was about to bow, Li Er waved his hand and made a gesture to keep quiet. He tiptoed behind Li Liyuan and carefully looked at the elegant princess who was writing, nodding repeatedly.
Li Liyuan did not know that Li Er would appear here so soon. She had already informed the palace maid to inform her if the Emperor came, but before she could, Li Er came.
Li Er carefully looked at the elegant handwriting on the Xuan paper and nodded in praise."Good handwriting, good calligraphy. The cursive script is like a snake treading on snow, and the text is like a breeze that makes one reminisce. Not bad.”
Li Liyuan's body trembled and her face lit up with joy. She quickly stood up and bowed."Greetings, Imperial Father.”
"You are…Liyuan?" Li Er was pleased." Not bad. To be able to write an article with the style of a great master, I am proud to have such a daughter."”
"Thank you for your praise, Imperial Father." Li Liyuan's face was flushed with excitement and she felt a little uneasy.
Li Er sighed." The last time I saw you, you were still at my father's place. Now that you've grown up, time really flies. Did my father and the ministers disturb you?"”
Li Liyuan panicked and quickly shook her head.""No, this place is quiet. Your daughter often comes here to splash ink and was seen by father. She was terrified and retreated.”
Li Er chuckled." It's fine. I've disturbed you. You continue practicing your calligraphy. I'll go over there and have a chat with everyone."”
Li Er led his men to another pavilion. He looked back a few times and nodded repeatedly. He glanced at Yan Jue and smiled.
Yan Jue was a little annoyed. Li Er's smile was a little malicious.
Li Er invited everyone to sit down. Yan Jue was also assigned a seat. After they were seated, the palace maid finished pouring wine.
Li Er smiled." Marquis Yan is only fourteen years old, but he is already a marquis of the Tang Empire. You are young and promising. You studied under a stranger and returned from overseas. You should be single, right?"”
"I'm still young and haven't gotten married yet." Yan Jue shook his head.”
"Fourteen years old is not young anymore. They will be married in another year or two. What does Marquis Yan think of my daughter?”
Do I dare to say that your daughter is not good? Yan Jue braced himself and nodded." The princess is beautiful and elegant. Congratulations, Your Majesty, for having a good princess."”
Li Er laughed happily." Alright, you are unmarried and the princess is not married. Marquis Yan, you are a hero of the Tang Empire. Today, I will make the decision to betroth my eldest princess to you. Any objections?"”
Yan Jue felt a little unnatural. I don't understand your Eldest Princess. What if she's also a cuckold princess?
Seeing Yan Jue's hesitation, Li Er's expression instantly pulled to the South Pole. He said in a deep voice,"What's wrong? You don't agree?"
"Your Majesty, I am just a warrior. How can I marry the princess of the Tang Empire?" Yan Jue smiled bitterly. There are as many talented people as there are hairs on an ox in this world. It's not that I disagree, but I'm afraid that I'm not worthy of the princess.”
Li Er laughed again and nodded."I approve, who dares to say no? When you are 16 years old, you will marry my princess. Not everyone can be the Prince Consort. This matter has been decided. You are the Marquis of the Tang Empire and also my son-in-law.”
"It's all up to His Majesty."
Rejecting Li Er now was simply courting death. Before he became a big shot, Yan Jue decided not to lower himself to Li Er's level. He decided to vent all the anger he suffered from Li Er on his daughter in the future.
Li Er was extremely happy. He raised his cup and said,"Congratulations to me for having a son-in-law who is riding on a dragon. Everyone, drink well."”
"Congratulations, Your Majesty, on getting a son-in-law."
"Congratulations, Your Majesty."
"Congratulations to His Majesty, congratulations to the Great Tang."
Everyone drank the wine in one gulp. Li Er laughed heartily and asked after a moment,""Marquis Yan, tell me what kind of expert your master is.”
Yan Jue told the lie that he had been brewing for a long time."Your Majesty, this lowly subject's master is a very strange person. He despises Confucianism and only knows how to talk nonsense. He doesn't know how to govern a country.”
The few civil officials were furious.
Yan Jue continued," He disdained Taoism. He only knows how to brag and talk nonsense. He doesn't know the ways of the world. He only knows how to comprehend the way of heaven and earth. He is born as a human, but he is not used by others. It is a waste of air to stay in the world and a waste of land after death.”
Li Er's expression was extremely interesting. Yan Jue's two sentences had already offended the Confucians and Daoists.
Yan Jue continued," The first path is to let the people of the world live and work in peace and contentment. "The militarists exonerate the territory, defend the city for the empire, and expel the barbarians. This is the second path. This is not what I said. This is what my teacher said.”
Yan Jue shamelessly pushed the blame onto the invisible person. In this world, good people did not live long, and evil people lived for a thousand years. Only a b * tch could prosper. Yan Jue swore to work hard to become a b * tch!
"Does your master have a name?" Li Er asked.”
"Your Majesty, I heard Master mention it in the past. Although the knowledge of the Phantom Valley Sect is far beyond the reach of our predecessors, my disciple, I am not as good as you. You and I are half-baked and have too much knowledge. We don't enter Ghost Valley. If you say which family, it's better to say that we're miscellaneous. My master calls himself Mr. Zongheng. I guess he is the successor of the Ghost Valley Sect.”
Li Er turned pale with fright. The courtiers trembled. Yuchi Gong's eyes were round and cold sweat flowed down. He looked at Yan Jue with doubt.
Did he hear wrongly? The successor of the Ghost Valley Sect? His master turned out to be the current generation's Mister Phantom Valley. This made Li Er's head buzz.
"Marquis Yan, how much of your master's knowledge have you learned?" Li Er asked anxiously.”
Yan Jue smiled bitterly." Master said that it took him 150 years to learn all the knowledge of the past generations in the Haunted Valley. I have only been a disciple for more than ten years. I have been taught by Master since I was sensible. I have only learned one-tenth of it. It is not even enough."”
"Nonsense." The warrior blew his beard and glared at him, saying angrily,""People are rare in old age. Seventy-year-old people are already rare in the world. How can anyone live to a hundred and fifty years old?”
Wu Shi was currently the minister of the Ministry of Works. In another half a year, he would be sent to Jingzhou as the provincial governor. He was Wu Zetian's father, and his daughter, Wu Meiniang, was only three or four years old.
Yan Jue pursed his lips and said," A martial arts student. My master said that he spent 150 years studying, but he was already a young man when he was studying. You don't believe that people can live for so long, and neither do I. But the truth is right in front of you. It's up to you whether you believe it or not. In short, no one in this world knows my master better than I do.”
"Your Majesty, I once saw Master fasting for forty-nine days without eating or drinking. Mosquitoes were not allowed to get close to him, and sand and dust were avoided. During this period, there was no breath. I was frightened and thought that Master was dead. I prepared to take care of his funeral and spent a lot of effort to bury Master. However, in less than a month, Master returned by himself. At that time, I was so scared that I peed my pants. What I said was true. If Your Majesty doesn't believe me, I have also learned this Turtle Breathing and Fasting Technique. Why don't you perform for His Majesty to see?"
Li Er was frightened, the civil officials were frightened, and Yuchi was frightened. In short, everyone present was frightened.
