Seeing that Situ Yong was very interested in Tai Chi, Lu Zifeng said.
"Your Majesty, I will now demonstrate Tai Chi to you. If you practice it once or twice a day, you will feel your health improve over time."
After that, Lu Zifeng began to demonstrate Tai Chi. Situ Yong had memorized most of it after watching it once, which made Lu Zifeng sigh in his heart, no wonder he could become the emperor? With such a memory, Lu Zifeng could only admire him. He still remembered that it took him several days to memorize the entire set of Tai Chi.
Then he looked at the two brothers Situ Jin and Situ Li who were watching from the side. Although they did not learn as fast as the emperor, they had learned almost the same. After watching them perform a whole set of Tai Chi, Lu Zifeng felt that there was really no simple person living in the royal family.
Situ Jin and Situ Li were actually better fighters than the emperor. Of course, Lu Zifeng discovered this after careful observation. At least on the surface, these two were not as good as the emperor. In fact, they just would not show it in front of the emperor.
After practicing for more than half an hour, Situ Yong left and returned to the imperial study. He didn't have so much time to practice martial arts here, as there were still many state affairs that needed his attention.
Only after seeing the emperor leave did Lu Zifeng smile and say.
"Alright, cousins, you can now practice Tai Chi without worry."
Lu Zifeng's words made Situ Jin and Situ Li smile. They each performed a set of Tai Chi. Only then did Lu Zifeng realize that his two cousins were both martial arts geniuses. In just a short while, they had already grasped the essence of Tai Chi.
Seeing that the two no longer needed his guidance, Lu Zifeng offered to take his leave. However, Situ Jin pulled Lu Zifeng into the East Palace.
"No matter what, you have to have dinner with me before you can leave today. You know, it's been a while since you returned to the Duke Dingguo Mansion, and we've become kin, but you haven't had a meal with your cousin yet? Besides, your sister-in-law just said that she must keep you for dinner today."
Hearing Situ Jin say this, Lu Zifeng couldn't refuse anymore and just went along with it.
"Then I'll do as you say, cousin."
Situ Li did not go back either, but followed him in directly. Situ Jin glanced at Situ Li and said, "Go, go outside the palace to call your wife, and then go to the Marquis' Mansion to pick up the other two cousins. Let's have a good reunion today."
Upon hearing this, Situ Li hurriedly said, "I understand, big brother. I'll go right away."
After saying that, they left the East Palace. Lu Zifeng had no chance to speak the whole time and had to follow their arrangements.
Half an hour later, Situ Li brought his princess into the East Palace, followed by the two brothers Lu Ziyan and Lu Zimo and the little girl Lu Zixuan.
Lu Zifeng didn't expect Lu Zixuan to come as well. He asked curiously.
"Why is my little sister here too?"
Princess Li of Situ Li said on the side.
"So my cousin knows that the King of Qin and I went to the Marquis' Mansion and saw my little cousin. I liked her very much, so I brought her here. But is my cousin angry?"
Li was very bright and her personality was somewhat similar to Wang Xifeng in the Dream of the Red Chamber in his previous life. With just one sentence, Lu Zifeng had no choice but to smile and thank her.
"Look at what my cousin's wife said. I was just asking and wasn't angry at all. But now that my cousin's wife asked me this, I've really been wronged!"
"Okay, we are all family, why are you all standing? Sit down quickly." Zhang said to everyone.
Then he turned to look at Li and said,
"You have a really powerful mouth. Your cousins just came home and don't know you yet. You should be careful!"
Li covered her mouth and laughed, "I understand, sister-in-law. I will pay attention to it in the future."
Just as we were about to start eating, we heard a noise outside.
"I told you there must be something delicious here, look, I can smell it!"
Lu Zifeng knew who it was by the voice and looked at Situ Li in confusion.
Situ Li chuckled.
"I ran into Situ Xun on the street on my way there! So I followed him here."
Situ Jin said with a smile.
"What a coincidence! All the brothers are here today, so let's have a good time together!"
Then Situ Hao, Situ Chen, Situ Cong, Situ Rui, and Situ Xun walked in together, but Situ Yi was nowhere to be seen. I don’t know where that guy went. Is he not at home?
Several people came at once. Crown Princess Zhang and Princess Li of Qin took the little girl Lu Zixuan to the side hall. There were quite a few people coming at once.
After everyone sat down, they began to clink glasses and the banquet lasted until the middle of the Youshi, which was around 6 pm.
Lu Zifeng followed Situ Hao and the others to the palace gate, saw them off, and then returned to the place where he was on duty. He found the room where he used to rest and went to sleep. To be honest, with Lu Zifeng's special ability, it was basically impossible for him to get drunk. However, he did not use his special ability to dissolve the effect of alcohol today. He still felt more comfortable with this feeling of being neither drunk nor drunk.
I slept until the end of the Yin hour the next morning before waking up.
I got up and looked at my wrinkled clothes. Oh, what a mistake. I should have gone home. I didn’t even have a change of clothes.
As I walked out of the house, I saw my former comrade, Cao Yong, walking towards me with a package in his hand.
"My Lord, this is the package that was just delivered from the Marquis' Mansion. They said it contains clothes for you."
Lu Zifeng was quite surprised when he heard this, but then he understood. It must be that after his second and third brothers went back last night, his mother found out that he didn't have any spare clothes, so she had them delivered early in the morning.
"Well, is it okay to be on duty here?"
Cao Yong laughed.
"It's pretty good. Compared to the military, this place is pretty good. At least it's not that dangerous. We just need to go on patrol every time."
Lu Zifeng didn't say anything more after hearing this. Everyone has different choices. Some people like the freedom on the battlefield, and some people like such a simple life. These are personal choices, and of course he will not meddle in other people's business.
Lu Zifeng stayed in the palace for five days, but Situ Yong didn't ask him to do anything during these five days. He felt bored just sitting there, but he didn't know why the emperor asked him to stay here.
It was not until the tenth day that Situ Yong asked someone to call Lu Zifeng to the imperial study.
"Your Majesty, I have seen you. May your Majesty be well and at peace."
Situ Yong looked down at the memorial without raising his head.
"Now go back and prepare. Go on a long journey to Bozhou. There is a big mountain in the north of Bozhou. Go to that mountain and find the private soldiers of King Qing for me. I heard that there are as many as 30,000 private soldiers there. Find a way to kill the person in charge there and bring all those private soldiers back to the court. Take this token. When the time comes, you can ask Lieutenant General Xue of Bozhou to help you. Remember, Lieutenant General Xue is King Qing's man in public, but secretly he is my man!"
