Chapter 28 Breathing
"The Way of Husband and Wife?" Han Ruzi first thought of the "Way of Benevolence and Righteousness" that Luo Huanzhang had been talking about, thinking that this was another classic that the emperor must learn, looked at the court ladies a few times, and said suspiciously: "Are you also the master selected by the Queen Mother? "
Tong Qing'e nodded with a smile, "It can be regarded as another kind of master. His Majesty is about to get married, and this servant will teach His Majesty how to...be a husband and wife."
Han Ruzi felt that this court lady was not like an ordinary master. After thinking for a while, he finally realized, "Oh, I understand the way of husband and wife."
"It's good that His Majesty understands, then..." Tong Qing'e also breathed a sigh of relief.
"'A gentle lady, a gentleman likes to be good.' A lady is worthy of a gentleman, and her righteousness lies in being virtuous and not lewd... The way of husband and wife is the virtue of concubines that Master Guo said."
Tong Qing'e was taken aback, so she had no choice but to walk up to the emperor, blushing and said: "The minister is just talking, slaves... slaves... are taught by themselves."
Only this time did Han Ruzi really understand the intention of the maid, and took two steps back vigilantly, remembering the reminder Yang Feng had made: the queen mother hoped that the emperor would give birth to a prince as soon as possible, so as to be a better puppet.
"Oh, so you are better than Master Guo, who did you learn from?" Han Ruzi began to pretend to be confused, with a smile on his face, walked to the edge of the couch and sat down.
Tong Qing'e misunderstood the emperor's words, and hurriedly said: "Senior Gong'e taught the servant girl, the servant girl has never... never tried it with others, Your Majesty... is the first."
"That's not good. The masters are all well-educated scholars, and there are eight hundred disciples if they don't have one thousand. You haven't taught any of them. How can you teach me? Let's forget it."
"How can this kind of thing teach too many people? The way of husband and wife is in line with the principles of nature. Your Majesty will understand after trying it." Tong Qing'e was forced to have no choice but to walk towards the emperor slowly, ignoring her shyness.
Han Ruzi yawned, "I'm sleepy, even if I want to teach, I'll wait until tomorrow."
"The way of husband and wife... is easy to learn when you are sleeping." Tong Qing'e sat beside the emperor and grabbed his hand.
Han Ruzi jumped to his feet and ran to the side of the big bed, feeling more and more vigilant in his heart. Once he gave birth to the crown prince, he would not even be worth a puppet. At that time, he would really have to "retire after success", "You This court lady is so rude, I have already said that I don’t want to learn… don’t come here again, or… I’m calling someone, Liang An and Zhang Youcai are outside.”
The emperor felt that he was being persecuted, and Tong Qing'e couldn't help herself. She stood up and said with a smile: "The two of them are very sensible, and they won't come in to disturb His Majesty. You don't need to be nervous, just try it. If your Majesty doesn't like it, just don't try again in the future." .”
Han Ruzi shook his heart and said loudly: "I don't like it now, and you didn't force me. Don't come here. I order you to stop."
No one obeyed the emperor's order, and now it is even more ineffective. Tong Qing'e walked to the table with a smile, and blew out the candle, "Does Your Majesty feel better?"
Han Ruzi's feeling was not good at all, he only had one thought in his mind, he must not be tricked, and he must not give birth to a prince. He regretted not learning some martial arts from Meng E brothers and sisters, otherwise he would not have been so embarrassing. There is no escape.
"Come here again, my name is the King of the East China Sea." Han Ruzi really had no other choice, knowing that the King of the East China Sea would never meddle in other people's business, he still regarded him as his savior.
The room was very dark, and there was no sound from the opposite side. Tong Qing'e didn't seem to come any closer. Han Ruzi waited for a while, then heaved a sigh of relief, thinking that Tong Qing'e was probably acting under the orders of the Queen Mother and had no other choice, so he said: "How about this?" Well, tell the Queen Mother tomorrow, just say... just say that you have taught me the way of husband and wife. If someone asks, I will say the same. Punishment, how?"
Han Ruzi didn't know how big the loophole was in this plan, and thought it was the best way, and waited for Tong Qing'e to agree, but there was still no sound from the other side, and Tong Qing'e seemed to disappear with the candlelight.
"Hey, are you still there?" Han Ruzi asked softly, and after listening for a while, he said to himself, "Could it be that you are going to sleep?"
As soon as the words fell, an arm stretched out in the darkness, Han Ruzi seemed to be stung by a bee, jumped up, stepped back several times, bumped against the edge of the bed, and fell on the bed. , shouted loudly: "Dong..."
That hand followed quickly, pointing his finger on his chest. Han Ruzi felt a turbid air trapped in his body, unable to speak, and it took him a long time to spit out the turbid air, and said pleasantly: "Yes!" you?"
"Well, it's me." This was Meng E's cold voice.
Han Ruzi was very happy, "Fortunately, you came, you really saved my life."
"Nobody wants to kill you."
"You don't understand, what the queen mother wants is a baby prince, once I do it, she will get rid of me!"
"Don't tell me this." There was a trace of disgust in Meng E's tone.
"Oh, you don't want to hear bad things about the Queen Mother, well, I won't say anything. What did you do to Tong Qing'e?" Han Ruzi didn't understand what Meng E hated.
"I put her to bed, and she won't wake up until tomorrow morning."
"how did you do it?"
"A little trick in the rivers and lakes."
"Can you teach me?"
"You can't learn it now, and it's useless to learn it."
Han Ruzi really felt that this trick was very useful, but Meng E didn't want to teach it, so he stopped pushing, "Then you come here every night from now on, let Tong Qing'e go to bed early."
"No, I can't get close to the Compassion Ning Palace until I'm on duty, and if she keeps sleeping like this, it will arouse suspicion sooner or later."
Han Ruzi was disappointed, "Then teach me martial arts quickly, so that I can protect myself."
"You really want to learn?"
"I want to learn." Han Ruzi originally thought that martial arts were not very useful, but Meng Che's skills were very good. According to him, he could compete against at most five well-trained soldiers on the battlefield, and he could compete with a man who commanded thousands of troops. Generals are no match. Through this night's experience, Han Ruzi changed his view. If he wants to control the ten steps, he must start within ten steps. The Dao taught by Yang Feng and Luo Huanzhang is only useful for the real emperor. For him now, Still just talking on paper.
The emperor agreed so simply, but Meng E remained silent, and waited for a while before saying: "You have to know, this means that you owe me something in return, and when I speak in the future, you must agree."
"You can bring it up now."
"No, it's useless to bring it up now. Let's talk about it when you really gain power, but I can assure you that it's not a particularly difficult matter, and it must be within the emperor's ability."
Han Ruzi gradually calmed down, and he was able to think normally again, "You brothers and sisters helped the queen mother for the same reward, right? But the queen mother has already taken power - did she refuse to repay you?"
"Don't guess, I won't give you an answer. Also, it was my own idea to come to you. My brother doesn't know, so don't reveal it in front of him."
"good."
Meng E was silent for a while, just when Han Ruzi thought she was gone, Meng E said: "My school's internal strength is more complicated, and it needs to be cultivated both internally and externally..."
"What sect are you?" Han Ruzi asked.
"Don't ask questions, just practice according to the method I taught you."
This is a strict master, even worse than Luo Huanzhang, Han Ruzi hummed heavily.
"Your situation is quite special, and you can't practice qigong in a big way. There is a set of simplified qigong that is just right for you."
"Is the simplified method weaker?" Han Ruzi couldn't hold back, and asked another question.
"Whether you are strong or weak depends on your understanding and hard work. Do you have to learn the strongest exercises?"
Han Ruzi wanted to learn martial arts just to have a little self-protection ability when necessary, and he really didn't need to be too strong, so he said, "You're right, let's continue."
"I don't have much time. I'll teach you a little basic kung fu today. It's easy, as long as you persevere."
"I can hold on."
"Okay, let me teach you the method of breathing first."
"Breathing? Everyone knows this."
"If you want to learn my skills, don't ask questions."
"Okay, you say."
"Everyone knows how to breathe, but it's a natural breath. There are two ways to practice internal energy, the reverse method first, and then follow the method after finding the meridian. You try to inhale when the abdomen is retracted, and exhale when the abdomen is inflated."
This is exactly the opposite of the normal way of breathing, but it is not difficult. Han Ruzi did it after two tries, and said with a smile: "This is really easy."
"The difficulty lies in persistence. In the future, you will practice while walking, while sitting, and while sleeping."
"Sleeping?" Han Ruzi became vigilant, and suddenly thought that Meng E was also a woman, not much older than Tong Qing'e, and she was also a subordinate of the Queen Mother. If there were ulterior motives, Meng E was even more suspicious.
In the dark, he slapped the emperor on the head, "Don't think wildly, concentrate on practicing."
Han Ruzi withdrew his doubts and tried a few more times, "I've learned it, how long do I need to practice every day?"
"The longer the better, but you don't have to force it."
"Okay, let's continue teaching."
"That's it for today."
"That's all?" Han Ruzi was disappointed.
"Practice internal strength step by step and accumulate over time. After a few days, when you have made progress, I will teach you the next stage of cultivation."
"OK."
"Also, you have to find a way to let my brother teach you Baibuquan. It will be more effective if you practice both internally and externally."
"Isn't the hundred-step boxing a very common boxing technique?" Han Ruzi couldn't help but ask the question. He still remembered that his attendant Zhang Yanghao used the hundred-step boxing.
"I can't teach you the external training of my school. You can use it after you learn it. People who know how to do it can recognize the details at a glance, especially my brother. Although the hundred-step boxing is ordinary, it is enough for external training. You just You need to remember one thing, no matter what others say, you must try your best to adhere to the method of reverse breathing when practicing boxing."
"I remember." Han Ruzi waited for a while, and found that there was no sound on the other side, and Meng E had already left.
"I don't know how long it will take to practice. What should I do tomorrow night?" Han Ruzi sat on the bed blankly. Yang Feng was not in Beijing, and Meng E couldn't come over at any time. The monster is staring at him.
