Chapter 37: Su Mu of the Flower Scattering House Up
These days, the marquis house because of the Yuanfei lady is going to drive to the big construction, but in the management of the rules also seems to be well organized, Hong Yi live in the osmanthus room is to entertain the guests to live, separated by a few floors of the courtyard, but also osmanthus forests of the barrier, even if the marquis house inside the day of the mess is also very clean.
But Hong Yi can not feel a little clean, the reason is the four maids.
The four maids are Purple Jade, Red Jade, Yellow Jade and Blue Jade.
Mrs. Zhao assigned these four maids, originally to serve tea and water to Hong Yi, wash his face and feet, and do all the miscellaneous work, but now they have become the four flies that monitor Hong Yi the most.
Hong Yi suspects that even if he gets up at night to urinate these days, he will be known by the four maids, and thus reported to the first lady.
Moreover, the meticulous Hong Yi also found that some of his clothes, books, from time to time there are subtle traces of flipping. Fortunately, he was prepared, "Maitreya Sutra" has long been close to the flesh into the collection, and dozens of "martial arts scriptures" have been familiar with the burning. There wasn't anything left behind that made people suspicious.
However, during these few days of covert observation, he had also seen the strength of these maids.
Mrs. Zhao's side of these four maids are good, light hands and feet, cat-like agile and nimble, actually each is a sinews practiced flexible and tough characters, Hong Yi's estimate, these maids do not look at the figure of the slender, but the real fight, casually overturned the two or three strong man is not a problem.
Hong Yi paid himself even if now he practiced the Bull Demon Power Fist to the realm of the martial arts apprentice, if the fight, at most can only beat two, four together, he will lose no doubt.
Figuring this out, he was also secretly surprised in his heart.
"These maids were all bought from the Southern Purchasing Bureau, it's not uncommon for them to know martial arts and have tough body bones. But that Sister Zeng beside Mrs. Zhao, it's just that her martial arts skills and body are extraordinary, she actually knows how to make her soul come out of her shell, that's strange, what is Mrs. Zhao's origin in the end? I only know that her family is a famous family in the south, three generations of university scholars in the dynasty, but now it seems that it is not an ordinary big family ........"
Hong Yi to Mrs. Zhao's bottom line is also a little known, but know not in detail, only know that the other side is the south of the famous family big family, the family three generations are the court in the university scholar, but now from all kinds of traces of the view, only afraid is not so simple.
The maid will be martial arts, body tough, Hong Yi this is not very surprised.
The south has a buying bureau, specializing in some poor people's little girl from childhood to buy over, and then trained to be clever, exquisite, zither, chess, calligraphy and painting all proficiency, and then sold to the various big families, or in the green house.
This purple, red, yellow, blue four jade's origin, Hong Yi also slightly know, is Mrs. Zhao's second son Hong Kang sent over.
Hong Kang in the south as an official, send a few dozen well-trained maids to serve Mrs. Zhao is also a normal thing.
These things were normal, but that Sister Zeng's matter was not.
"The Southern Purchasing Bureau, there are a lot of people traffickers who are doing illegal business, in order to collect money, and lose their conscience, Mrs. Zhao's mother's family is a big prestige family in the south, I don't know if there is a connection ..........."
Hong Yi's mind speculated to the bad side, suddenly, he got up an idea and called out to the outside.
"Zi Yu, pour me a cup of tea over here. In addition, Huang Yu, my paper is used up, you go to Pine and Bamboo Xuan to buy the last three ways back, one or two a kind of fragrant bamboo paper. In addition, to the medicine store inside to buy some wine, and Suhexiang pill, as well as dry ginseng, angelica, gold cicada seed ...... these medicines to come."
Hong Yi sat in front of the wide desk, his eyes twinkling, casually commanding, quite a sense of commanding.
"Good." Two fifteen or sixteen year old maids ran in nimbly, their eyes fixed on Hong Yi, their mouths answering, their faces smiling.
The smiles of the two maids did not seem to come from a sincere place at all in Hong Yi's opinion, but they just couldn't pick out half of the faults, and had obviously received very strict training.
"Well, Ziyu, you served well these days, this is a reward for you."
Hong Yi looked at these two maids, his heart moved, and spoke to the obviously bigger maid, Zi Yu, and then pulled out a ruddy colored coin from inside the money bag on his waist and placed it on the table, waiting for Zi Yu to come over to take it.
This was the red gold coin that Consort Yuan had gifted him that day, exclusive to the palace.
Hong Yi is now considered to have a small amount of money in his possession, ten red gold coins, converted into silver is two hundred taels, while Hong Xuanji gave him a hundred taels in the accountant's office, and Mrs. Zhao gave him another three hundred taels, after counting, after removing the expenses of these days, he also has more than five hundred taels of silver in his possession.
"Red gold coins ......"
Seeing the money on the table, a trace of surprise flashed in the eyes of the two maids, but they didn't come forward to take it, and that Ziyu said, "Madam has ordered that serving Young Master Yi is our duty? How do you dare to ask for a reward? Young Master Yi had better put it away."
Saying that, the two maids said blessings, one went out to buy something, one went to pour tea.
"These villains are like flies, they are really annoying. But it also shows that they are not simple."
Hong Yi knew in his heart that this scene just now would surely reach inside Lady Zhao's ears in less than an hour.
But he was causing such an effect. To make Mrs. Zhao create a feeling of having someone behind her, thus not daring to do anything to herself.
As long as he dragged through this month and came out for the imperial examination, the dragon would swim in the sea and the sky would be high enough for the birds to fly.
"These pesky flies are staring, practicing kung fu is not good." Hong Yi these days, but did not practice martial arts, at most, he only secretly speculated in his mind, sometimes moving his body.
His martial arts has reached the point of Martial Apprentice, there is still a layer of practicing the skin membrane, after practicing, the sinew, flesh and skin will be accomplished, then he can practice the bone.
Tiger devil practice bone fist has been familiar with the heart, a move in the heart understand, such as printing plate knife carving.
Yawn, thinking of Tiger Devil Bone Training Fist, Hong Yi propped up a lazy waist, unintentionally, the heart of the image stored in the boxing manual, the body at once with the "Tiger Devil Stretching" posture.
Oops!
A burst of stinging pain from the waist, as if it was a flash of waist, sprained tendons, cracked skin feeling, very uncomfortable.
"This Tiger Demon Bone Training Fist, without practicing the tendons, flesh and skin to a great extent, it cannot be practiced forcibly." Hong Yi finally knew why the fist technique had to be practiced one step at a time, practicing the bones had to involve the skin and sinews. Without practicing the skin and flesh to a tough degree, forcing the bones to be practiced would be extremely damaging to the body.
"Let's see if the Breathing and Exhaling method can be utilized?"
Hong Yi thought in his heart, inside his head flashed out the first style of the image in the "Spiritual Turtle Breathing Method", "Spiritual Turtle Exposure to the Sun", as well as some key points, so he arched his back, clasped his hands on his head, two short and three long breaths were spat out, and his thoughts were stored in his heart and lungs.
Hoo hoo hoo hoo!
Between exhaling breaths, Hong Yi only felt his qi and blood churning, and almost fainted.
"The body is not yet strong, this breathing and exhaling, can't be practiced indiscriminately." Hong Yi was appalled in his heart.
Breathing and spitting in and out and gulping, a large amount of breath rolling, driving the circulation of qi and blood, the body is not tough on the outside, the circulation of qi and blood is not, the inside and outside will not be able to pass through, can not be coordinated, so that practicing, there is also a hundred harms but not one benefit.
"Martial arts should be taken one step at a time, you can't rush things, then try Divine Soul." Hong Yi simply sat in silence and stored his thoughts, suddenly all of a sudden, the divine soul jumped out of the body.
Before his eyes, there was a white blur, and his body seemed to be stabbed like needles! As if he was in a sea of fire! I can't see anything at all. I almost lost my soul.
Oh no!
Hong Yi quickly returned to his shell.
Only then did he realize that the sun was in the sky.
After contemplating the Maitreya Buddha for a few times and comprehending the meaning of the thousand lifetimes of unchanging original mind and true oneness, Hong Yi was able to repair the soul that had just been damaged.
He knew that his martial arts and Taoism had reached a bottleneck. It would be very difficult to progress any further.
Just at this moment, another maid walked in outside the door, it was Lan Yu, while following him in was a tall and tough-faced warrior.
Hong Yi recognized that this warrior was following Luo Yun.
"Young Master Yi, Princess Zhennan's guards have come to invite, saying that the princess has a hall meeting at Scattered Flowers House, and has invited the number one talented girl in Yujing, Su Mu, to invite you to go over and talk about Xuanxuan in a pair of poems."
