Anyang Cao's son, flat and narrow
with my hair tied up, I watch Qin expand. Squeak squeak
The green pine trees are still there, and they are flat and flat.
Enlightened to become a celestial. Squeak squeak
The name is as light as the idle clouds, flat and flat
like wild cranes, the moors are sharp. Ping Ze Ze
A man of great talent, fair and square
Why hide in the capital? Ping Ze Ping Ping
In a carriage that was as luxurious as the Liyang prince's imperial carriage, a young scholar dressed in a black official's robe sat upright on a soft woolen carpet made of cloud goat that was a specialty of the Turkic steppe. He held a 'Winter Language Paper' that was produced by Xulai Workshop of the West Chu every four years. He looked at the five-character law written on the paper with the Yanhu brush of the Northern Wei Dynasty and the Hui ink of the Liyang pine. His brows were so tightly knitted that they could squeeze a crab to death. (Everyone, guess which novel this line is from.）
He really couldn't imagine how the fellow who was as famous as him could write such nonsense. It was simply a waste of the best paper, pen, and ink in the world.
Why was there no inkstone?
That was because that playboy used the Western Han Dynasty's 'luminous lamp' as the inkstone, the Southern Song Dynasty's 'jade rose drunk' as the water, and the Eastern Yue Buddha's light stone as the ink.
His extravagance was comparable to that of the fatuous ruler of Western Shu!
"What does Brother Chang Ling think?" The person lying on the opposite side of the young scholar asked.
"Bullshit." The black-robed young man called Brother Chang Ling replied with a cold expression.
"Hahahaha, Brother Chang Ling, cut it in half from the middle and use it as two poems and five laws.”
Brother Changling followed that person's words and split this Five Laws into two from the middle, treating it as two poems. He found that looking at it this way, the format of the two poems and five laws was much more standardized.
Looking at the poem, it was written about the West Chu Cao Changqing who was also one of the top ten officials on the Heaven Ranking.
When mentioning the Qilin Son of the Cao Clan, even the black-robed young man who was naturally arrogant had no choice but to secretly write the word 'admiration' in his heart.
At the age of 17, he was enlightened by the Ancient Qin Songtuo in the forest and pine waves of Jinzhou, Liyang. He integrated the ancient and modern calligraphy into the sword intent. In the year of his hair, he had an epiphany and achieved the first-grade Celestial Realm.
The thousand-year-old pine stele shattered into pieces, leaving behind only a thousand-year-old wood core that looked like a long sword. It was named 'Green Pine Ain'.
Cao Changqing had merged the seal script, official script, running script, regular script, and cursive script he was good at into the sword intent.
'The words contain the principles of heaven and earth, and the sword contains the power of the present and the past.'
Because his sister was the main palace of the Western Chu Dynasty, she was the queen of the court. In order to prevent him from being labeled as a harem meddlesome, Cao Changqing abided by the ancient etiquette of 'relatives should not easily participate in politics'. He firmly refused to be granted the position of West Chu's Right Minister and Great Sima by the Chu Emperor. Although he was a talented civil and military man, he was willing to live in seclusion in the outskirts of Ying Jing, the capital of West Chu, and be an idle person who taught martial arts.
Cao Changqing, also known as Sima. The playboy opposite him once joked that if this Cao Guojiu thought it through one day and took the position of West Chu's Great Sima, then he would be able to form a couplet with West Chu's Left Prime Minister Yan Zi:
"The word Sima, Zhi Sima, Sima.”
"Prime Minister, Prime Minister, Prime Minister.”
"Brother Chang Ling, I have a secret regarding this State Uncle Cao. Would you like to hear it?”
" That person " opposite Zhao Changling asked if Zhao Changling was willing to listen, but he didn't wait for his Brother Changling to say yes. He sat up and poured a cup of Jade Rose Drunken Wine for himself and Zhao Changling before telling them the secret he mentioned.
Cao Cao's wife died early and left a son. Emperor Chu was assassinated during the autumn examinations.
According to the secret diagnosis of Doctor Shi Gancao from the Department of Trauma of West Chu Imperial Academy of Medicine, it was determined that her kidney was injured by an assassin and her kidney meridian was dehydrated. It was difficult for her to have children.
However, this West Chu Human Emperor was also an infatuated person. Although he had three palaces and six courtyards, he only loved Empress Cao Mi. Apart from Empress Cao Mi who had just given birth to a daughter not long ago, the West Chu Human Emperor had no other children.
Half a year after Emperor Chu was assassinated, he secretly met with Cao Changqing and revealed a huge secret to him.
'That person' stopped here, picked up the cup of Jade Rose Drunken Wine on the small table, and slowly drank it.
"Li Xishan, although you saved me from the secret prison of the fatuous ruler, Zhao Changling really can't agree with your licentious form. A gentleman says not to hide the needle and leave the thread. Are you trying to get me to learn from that common person and ask you for the bottom of it? If you want to say it, say it. Don't play tricks and sully your reputation as an official.”
It would be a lie if Zhao Changling said that he was not grateful to his savior. Speaking of gratitude, every time he saw Li Xishan's unruly attitude, his heart would always be inexplicably angry.
He had been controlled by his father, who was a great scholar of Western Shu, since he was young. He had to follow etiquette in his daily life. In fact, deep in his heart, he was very envious of Li Xi's unrestrained state.
"Hahahaha, Brother Chang Ling, don't be anxious, listen to me tell you in detail.。。。。。”
It turned out that the assassination of Emperor Chu was actually a 'personal scheme' by the Human Emperor of the West Chu!
After Empress Cao Mi gave birth to the little princess, she lost blood and was unable to reproduce. Although Emperor Chu had secretly executed the imperial physician who knew about this matter, he was worried that as time passed, the officials and the imperial clan would remonstrate and request him to take in a new concubine and continue having children.
Emperor Chu was not willing to remarry, and he was also worried that if he were to appoint another ruler, someone would replace Cao Mi's position as the empress.'
Hence, he didn't hesitate to put himself in danger and put on such a 'painful ploy'. This West Chu Human Emperor was also a second-grade grandmaster. It was a piece of cake for him to use a small trick to block his meridians and make the imperial physicians think that he had injured his kidney.
He had secretly met Cao Changqing because he wanted this 'Uncle Cao' to adopt his son to his 'brother-in-law', and he would make him the heir apparent.
When she grew up, she would become the new ruler of Western Shu. She would not be able to write two Cao characters in a single stroke. Empress Cao Mi would have her nephew as a protective talisman. She would be able to 'rely on her nephew to be dignitary', and her position as empress would be as stable as Mount Tai.
Then, 200 years ago, a rebellion broke out in the West Chu and almost destroyed the country. The true West Chu royal bloodline had long since been wiped out in that internal strife. It was the Cao family's ancestor who turned the tide and protected the adopted son of Emperor Chu, who did not have the royal bloodline, to restore the country.
Speaking of which, 200 years ago, the West Chu royal bloodline had already been cut off. It was his family and the Cao family's ancestors who used the righteousness of restoring the West Chu to recover the great rivers and mountains.
Now that the West Chu was occupied by the Cao family's descendants, it could be considered as returning it to its original owner. No outsiders were allowed to benefit.
"Brother Chang Ling, it won't be long before that West Chu's 'Emperor Ming Xian' will announce to the world that he will take in the son of the 'Imperial Uncle' Cao Chang Qing as his stepson and make him the Crown Prince.”
"How did you, Li Xishan, know about these secrets?”
Zhao Changling vaguely guessed the answer, but he still wanted Li Xishan to say the answer he had guessed in his heart.
"Brother Chang Ling, don't you already have the answer in your heart? That's right, the person who gave the Human Emperor of West Chu this trick was me, Li Xishan.”
"I did this because I was moved by his true feelings for Empress Cao Mi. Secondly, Cao Changqing was a person who protected his sister like crazy. Now that his sister was the Empress and his son was the future Human Emperor of West Chu, it would be impossible for him to live in seclusion in the capital.”
"The Turks are powerful. West Chu's Left Prime Minister Yan Zi has a chronic illness and won't live long. If Cao Changqing became an official, the West Chu's strength would increase, and they would be able to hold back at least two hundred thousand elite Turkic soldiers.”
Although Li Xishan was still the same unrestrained person, his analysis and deduction of the times, events, and situation were quite impressive. The top ten officials on the Heaven Roll indeed lived up to their reputation.
"What good is this to you, Li Xishan?”
Zhao Changling knew that Li Xishan wasn't the kind of person who was noble and clean. Although this person wasn't someone who wouldn't wake up early without benefits, he would definitely do things for a reason.
"With the West Chu holding back the two hundred thousand elite Turkic soldiers, we have a twenty percent chance of winning the war against the Turks at the Liyang Jin Province.”
Li Xishan did not tell Zhao Changling what he was about to say. This was also his way of testing the waters against the Thousand Year Tribulation.
"Aren't you from Northern Wei, Li Xishan? Why are you worried about Liyang?”
Zhao Changling was even more confused.
"Because the man who led the troops to attack the Turks in Liyang Jin City was my junior brother who was 'from the same sect'.。。。。。In our previous life, we were brothers born from the same mother and shared the same bloodline. Even if I, Li Xishan, reincarnated, he is still the closest person I have to protect and help in this life. Is Brother Chang Ling satisfied with this reason?”
Li Xishan's words stunned Zhao Changling. He believed that Li Xishan was not lying to him.
Firstly, Li Xishan had done a lot of 'crazy and dissolute things' but had never said anything that was 'lying.'
There was also Li Xishan, who was 'almost born with known'. He had never heard of any famous teachers or hermits, nor had he had any fortuitous encounters. However, his martial arts, talent, and mystic techniques were all among the top in the world.
Before this, there were people who guessed that he was the reincarnation of a powerful being, but none of his martial arts and mystic techniques could be found. There was no special manifestation of his physical appearance. Most importantly, those 'reincarnated mighty figures' who could not be reincarnated and lose their memories of their previous lives would have the divine weapons and treasures of their previous lives, the 'Thousand Mile Master' recognition, after they were reincarnated and awakened. However, Li Xishan had never had any fixed divine weapons or magic treasures.
"Brother Chang Ling, haven't you always wanted to exterminate that 'fatuous ruler'? This brother of mine from my previous life doesn't lack strong soldiers and fierce generals, but he lacks a strategist like you who can strategize and decide victory. If you help him destroy the Turks now, he will definitely help you achieve your goals in the future.”
Li Xishan guessed that Zhao Changling was shocked. If he didn't give this arrogant guy a lesson and suppress him, he might be able to be arrogant when he reached the other side.
"Since he's your 'brother', why don't you be the military counselor yourself?”Zhao Changling was one of the top ten officials on the Heaven Roll, so he was not an ordinary person. After a few breaths, he recovered from his shock and quickly grasped a key point.
" Hahahaha, Brother Chang Ling, as the saying goes,'Kung Fu is outside the chessboard'. If you help him to be' invincible 'inside the chessboard, I will help you to chop off all the' dog paws 'that are outside the chessboard but want to' point their fingers 'at you.”
When Li Xishan said 'leave no one behind,' he suddenly threw the luminous lamp in his hand onto the soft couch. His gaze at that moment made Zhao Changling's heart turn cold as ice, and his entire body trembled.
From then on, whenever Zhao Changling was 'arrogant and rampant' in Xu Xiao's army, he would immediately stop and restrain himself as long as Li Xishan threw his cup on the ground.
