Lord Prime Minister

The daily morning exercise of the Palace Guards is in the southwest corner of the backyard. When Mu Zihuai led the excited Long Lei to arrive, Long Xiu was at Zamabu.

Even a layman like Mu Zihuai can see that his horse's gait is not steady, his body is a little crooked, and his expression is serious. Reflects beautiful light.

On one side are several armed guards, all of them are strong and strong, holding sticks or swords in their hands, dancing decently.A middle-aged man who looked like the head of the guard came over and looked at Long Xiu, with dissatisfaction on his face, he reached out and patted his lower back and thigh.

"Stand up straight, take a rest after half a stick of incense."

Long Xiu adjusted his posture according to his words, gritted his teeth and persisted.

"Brother... um..."

Mu Zihuai covered Long Lei's mouth with his hand in time to avoid disturbing Long Xiu.

"Hush, don't disturb him." Pulling Long Lei to find a stone chair to sit down, Mu Zihuai urged.

Long Lei covered his mouth and nodded, obediently sat down on the chair without making any noise.

It took half a stick of incense to wait for this, the sun had already risen, and the sweat dripping from Long Xiu's body had already soaked his clothes, but he still maintained the posture of striding horses. Although it was not standard, it was still decent. There are samples.

Long Lei also sat for half a stick of incense, and Mu Zihuai was a little impressed by the sudden patience of the seemingly fussy child.

Besides, seeing that the half stick of incense had passed, the chief guard came to Long Xiu slowly, his face was still dissatisfied, but he waved him to rest.

As soon as he heard that it was time to rest, Long Xiu's body relaxed, and he almost sat on the ground, with his hands resting on his trembling legs, and he closed his eyes to relieve the extreme fatigue of his body.

Mu Zihuai was not in a hurry to go there, but patiently waited for him to rest and walk over here.

"Why are you here?" Long Xiu walked slowly, showing a tired smile with the corners of his mouth pulled.Long Lei rushed over like a cannonball and almost knocked him down, but was held in his arms as a crutch again.

"Come and take a look if you have nothing to do." Mu Zihuai walked over to take Long Xiu's weight, and helped him to walk up. "Don't sit down, walk for a while and then rest."

Long Xiu had no choice but to walk around the training ground half-carried by him.

"Are you still practicing in the afternoon?" He took the teapot on the stone table and poured a cup of tea to Long Xiu. Mu Zihuai felt distressed seeing him so tired that he was out of shape.

Long Xiu drank the tea in one gulp, but still didn't quench his thirst, so he simply took the teapot and poured himself another cup. "I won't practice anymore, but I promised the old man watering the flowers to help him carry water."

"Carrying water?" Mu Zihuai frowned slightly. Long Xiu is now growing his body. Before, it was because conditions did not allow him to reach his waist until he was 13 years old.From now on, even if you make up for it hard, you don't know if it will grow back.Now I have to carry water. Is this still tall?

Seemingly aware of Mu Zihuai's worry, Long Xiu drank a few glasses of water before explaining: "I only need to carry a tank of water today, and I will increase it gradually. I will be fine in the afternoon, so I won't embarrass myself."

"Brother is going to carry water?" Upon hearing something of interest, Long Lei immediately seized the opportunity to say, "I will carry water with my brother, too."

"No!"

"No!"

This time the two disagreed.Long Lei is still a child, and his bones probably haven't grown strong yet. Carrying water is too tiring, and his body may not be able to bear it.

"But I also want to practice martial arts with my brother." Long Lei took two steps forward, holding their sleeves with both hands.

"Xiao Lei will learn calligraphy with me first. After a few years, I will talk to the housekeeper and let you practice martial arts with your brother." Reaching out to hug Long Lei into his arms, Mu Zihuai patiently suggested, trying to dispel Long Lei's worries. The idea of ​​water.

"Hmm..." Long Lei tilted his head and thought for a while, then nodded heavily: "Then I will learn to write first, and I can ask my brother to teach me to practice martial arts in the future."

Mu Zihuai was finally relieved. Seeing that Long Xiu had almost poured a pot of water into his stomach, and the sweat from his body was blown dry, he thought about taking him to take a bath.

"Stupid! Is this how you protect my brother? How can you catch the thief if you can't even beat me?"

A delicate voice sounded, and Mu Zihuai looked up, only to find that the guards who were about to disperse just now were all gathered together. That's where the voice came from just now, and it sounded familiar.

The crowd backed away, and a young guard with a bruised nose and a swollen face came out, clutching his stomach.

Before he had time to say anything, Long Lei had already moved over. He was small and squeezed in through the gap between the crowd.

Mu Zihuai had already guessed who it was. Last night, he had seen how powerful this unruly little princess was, and now he couldn't avoid it.But seeing that Long Lei had squeezed in, he had no choice but to follow.

After circling around the crowd, he was surprised to find that Long Lei had already squeezed into the first row.Mu Zihuai's stature was not small, and he had no choice but to let Long Xiu get in and bring Long Lei out in the face of a group of burly men.

Mu Zihuai stood outside the crowd and waited. After waiting for a while, no one came out, but he heard the voice of the unruly princess again.

"Who will come next? Today, I want you to review your martial arts, so as not to be bullied when you go out in the future. Hey, little brother, you can't come here, hurry up, in case this princess has no eyes What if I hurt you? Take your brother out quickly."

The only one present who could be called a younger brother by Princess Miaotong was Long Lei, but it sounded like Long Xiu was also regarded as a younger brother because of his small size.

Mu Zihuai couldn't help but want to laugh a little, being treated as a younger brother by a child younger than himself, and a little girl younger than himself, according to Long Xiu's temperament of always treating himself as an adult, he would probably vomit blood.

However, according to Long Xiu's calm personality at a young age, Mu Zihuai was not worried about accidents, but waited for him to bring Long Lei out with peace of mind.

Sure enough, after waiting for a while, the two villains squeezed out one after another, and a new competition had already started on the competition stage behind them.

Long Xiu's face darkened imperceptibly, but Mu Zihuai could see it. Holding back a smile, he took Long Lei over and explained, "That is His Majesty's Seventh Princess Miaotong, who is only ten years old today."

As soon as these words came out, Mu Zihuai saw that Long Xiu's face darkened again.

He could naturally see that the little girl was younger than himself, but seeing her arrogant arrogance that even the guards did not dare to resist, Long Xiu guessed that this person must have a lot of background.Those guards obviously let her in, and they were willing to be beaten by her because of her status.

But Long Xiu himself was different. He had just started practicing martial arts today, and he couldn't even tie the horse stance well. Although he was unwilling in his heart, he had to admit that he couldn't beat this princess.

Considering various aspects, Long Xiu didn't say a word and led Long Lei to escape quickly.Hearing Mu Zihuai's uncontrollable laughter at this time, he couldn't help feeling a little angry.

"If you don't let her, she can't beat anyone." The thought in his heart blurted out, but Long Xiu soon regretted it.

Miao Tong just kicked a vulnerable guard to the ground, proudly raised her head and watched the man run away clutching his chest, feeling very happy.Although Brother Wuhuang doesn't take her out to play, she can also play with the guards by herself.

The Huangfu Dynasty regards war as its glory, and everyone is capable of martial arts, even women can fight the enemy.The princes and daughters in the palace even had special teachers to teach them to practice martial arts since they were young. Except for the third sister who was married, among the several princes and daughters, the seventh princess was the most serious about practicing martial arts, and her results were also good.

The panicked escape of the injured guard made Miaotong even more elated. When she was looking up at the crowd with disdain, this voice suddenly broke in.

The sound wasn't too loud, but the scene was so quiet that the princess and everyone heard every word.

Miao Tong's face flushed red, although she always knew that these guards were deliberately giving way to her, but it was another thing to be pointed out on the spot.Her pride was trampled on, Miaotong became angry from embarrassment, and her self-esteem began to haunt her.

The proud Seventh Princess stepped down from the competition stage, and the crowd automatically diverted a path, leading directly to Long Xiu's location.

There were two children and one adult, Miao Tong was bursting with anger, seeing that the adult was the concubine newly recruited by Brother Wuhuang yesterday, her face became hot again.Immediately, he felt ashamed in front of his future sister-in-law, and the look in Long Xiu's eyes had risen to the level of heinous crime.

"You!" Miao Tong pointed at the child who was not as tall as her with her slender fingers. Seeing that his face was expressionless, like a piece of wood, he must have said what he said just now. "You compete with me!"

At this moment, Long Xiu knew that the little girl was a princess, and he was a little scared, but Wannian Mumu still had no expression on his face, and even replied, "Princess, has she been practicing martial arts for too long?"

Seventh Princess Miaotong shook her head, her small face raised high: "Three years!"

"Today is my first day of martial arts training. I will definitely not be able to beat the princess now."

"What do you mean?" Miao Tong frowned, knowing that the other party had something to say.

"Three months, how about I compete with the princess after three months?" Long Xiu was so bold that he even started to discuss.

"Okay!" Miao Tong was also quite straightforward, and agreed immediately. "Don't cry when you lose."

Long Xiu nodded, serious. "I won't let you go."

The Seventh Princess was extremely angry, who had ever treated him so rudely when she was so old, she was trembling with anger when she pointed at Long Xiu's finger. "You! What's your name?"

"Long Xiu."

"Okay! I, Huangfu Miaotong, swear that I will beat you to the ground in three months!" Miaotong pointed her finger at the sky and swore, she gave Long Xiu a hard look, and then glanced at her future sister-in-law sadly, Seeing that he didn't respond, he had no choice but to turn around and leave.

Mu Zihuai couldn't laugh or cry when he saw the two children messing around, but at the end they got such a result, especially the look in the eyes of Princess Miaotong when she left just now, the expression of anticipation and some seeking to rely on made him puzzled.

And Long Xiu seemed to really keep this agreement in his heart, he clenched his fists and left.

Mu Zihuai pulled Long Lei and shouted at his back: "Xiaoxiu, where are you going?"

"Carry water."
