Following this eunuch, Xiong Qi came to the "Wende Hall" on the side of the "Chuigong Hall". Here, he met Emperor Zhezong Zhao Xu, who was one year older than him.

Zhao Xu just ascended the throne yesterday. Now he is only ten years old, so naturally he cannot truly govern. In fact, according to history, eight years after he ascended the throne, it was not until Empress Dowager Gao died of illness that he began to rule.

Looking at the little emperor in front of him who was called "Ninth Brother", Xiong Qi felt countless emotions.

Song Zhezong Zhao Xu was known as the "last emperor of the Song Dynasty to achieve success" and the last emperor who could change the fate of the Song Dynasty.

After taking power, he first defeated the invaders of Xixia, and then went to Xixia many times to fight against each other. He passed the two "Pingxia City" battles and obeyed Xixia. He had to hand over the letter of surrender, seeking peace, and claiming to be a vassal state of the Song Dynasty.

During that period, even the great enemy of the Song Dynasty, the Liao Kingdom, was deeply afraid!

Not only that, during Zhao Xu's reign, he also sent troops to launch the Hehuang Campaign, defeated Qingtang Yesilu, recovered Hehuang, and almost included Qinghai-Tibet Tubo in the Central Plains again.

Such foreign achievements are beyond the reach of Zhao Kuangyin, the Emperor Taizu of the Song Dynasty. If this continues, it may not be impossible for Zhao Xu to become the next "Wu Emperor of Han"!

Unfortunately, just when Zhao Xu was about to take down the entire Tubo in one go, he died young and died of illness only at the age of twenty-five.

If you can live longer, the internal land annexation problem may still not be cured, but it will definitely be able to eliminate the image of "weak Song" externally!

He sighed secretly, and Xiong Qi heard the ten-year-old brat opposite him in a dragon robe saying:

"Ninth brother, you have eye disease and are inconvenient to your behavior. I am really worried about moving out of the palace to live alone. If you have any needs, remember to ask me at any time, I will definitely satisfy you with all my strength!"

"Thank you, brother, for your concern!"

Sitting on the chair, Xiong Qi bowed and said.

In the Song Dynasty, especially the Northern Song Dynasty, the humanistic spirit reached its peak. In front of the emperor, except for occasions such as the throne ceremony, there was no saying that he would kneel down. In addition, King Shen had eye disease, so he was arranged to sit down as soon as he came in.

After thinking about the wording, Xiong Qi continued:

"Brother, I plan to practice martial arts and strengthen my body. At that time, my eye disease may be cured!"

"oh?"

Zhao Xu's eyes lit up and he said:

"My ninth brother has this idea? It's a good thing!"

Standing up from the dragon throne, Zhao Xu walked to Xiong Qi, looked at him and said:

"I advocated 'governing the world with scholars and officials', but I never said that I would not practice military affairs without practicing military reform. Those stubborn guys thought that just learning literature was enough. In fact, it was a big mistake. I am very pleased that my ninth brother wanted to practice martial arts!"

After saying that, Zhao Xu looked at Xiong Qi and nodded repeatedly.

"His Majesty!"

At this moment, a eunuch who was attending the hall shouted at Zhao Xu in a low voice.

Zhao Xu looked back at him, suddenly felt a sense of distortion, coughed, and walked back to the dragon chaise and sat down.

It’s not that he was emotionally excited. He always advocated military affairs, but there was Empress Dowager Gao who was always calm and considering peace with the outside world, and was suppressed. She was full of thoughts and no one told her. Suddenly, she heard that the "Ninth Brother" was going to practice martial arts, so she was naturally a little excited.

Even though he is very cunning, he is only ten years old after all and has just ascended the throne, but he inadvertently reveals his thoughts.

Sitting on the dragon throne, thinking of today's court meeting, the ministers ignored them and only focused on discussing peace talks with the Xixia Party and Xiang peace talks with Empress Dowager Gao. Zhao Xu sighed secretly.

"I heard that practicing martial arts requires a lot of money for medicinal materials. When I go back, I will ask the Queen Mother for the imperial edict to provide support to my ninth brother!"

Looking at Xiong Qi, Zhao Xu said.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Xiong Qi bowed and said.

The two of them had a conversation again, and Zhao Xu was very intimate in his words, which was extremely rare in the imperial family.

After chatting for about a stick of incense, Xiong Qi left Wende Hall.

...

"What a pity Zhao Xu!"

On the way back to the palace, sitting obliquely on the soft collapse of the eight-carrying sedan chair, Xiong Qi thought to himself:

"If he could live longer, he would be able to become a person like Emperor Wu of Han and Tangzong, alas!"

"Although my time travel mission is mainly to explore the innate secrets, if I can do something for the Song Dynasty, it won't be in trouble!"

With memories of his past lives, Xiong Qi felt very complicated about this era, especially the "Jingkang Shame" decades later, which he did not want to experience.

With the physical conditions of an expert from the inner family, he could have lived to that time. In history, King Shen Zhao Quan died before the "Jingkang Shame", but Xiong Qi obviously could not die so early!

Thoughts flowed, Xiong Qi temporarily left behind his thoughts on Song Dynasty and Zhao Xu, and instead remembered the information he received from the mysterious ancient sect before traveling through time.

"Control the murderous intent and understand the murderous intent?"

Frowning, Xiong Qi was a little puzzled.

Killing intention sounds simple, but the requirements of the ancient sect are obviously not simple.

"What does the ancient sect mean? First, it creates the idea of ​​killing, and then condenses the intention of killing. Now I have to understand the 'killing intention'?"

"It's all about 'killing'. Does the Gumen want to train me into a demon who only knows how to kill?"

"This is not what I want!"

Xiong Qi looked at the sky outside the sedan chair in a daze and said intimately:

"I practice for myself, not for others or for an unknown treasure. If I become a person who only knows how to kill but has no self, what's the use of no strength?"

"No matter how magical this mysterious ancient sect is, it can only provide help to me, not replace me!"

A strange look appeared in his eyes, and Xiong Qi thought firmly.

"Of course, the existence of the ancient sect is very beneficial to me, and there is no need to give up because of choking. You have to use it if you want it!"

"The key to 'killing intention' is not 'killing'?"

Time passed slowly while thinking, and before he knew it, Xiong Qi returned to Prince Shen's Mansion.

...

One year later.

In the palace of King Shen, there is a secret room.

Xiong Qi, wearing a white brocade robe, slowly opened his eyes.

"The effect of "Yi Jin Jing" and "Pure Yang Wuji Gong" are good. In just one year, this body is no different from a normal person!"

Feeling his physical condition, Xiong Qi thought with satisfaction.

Although he was born in the royal family, the tradition of the powerful and powerful in the Song Dynasty was to learn literature but not martial arts. With eye disease, his predecessor's body was very bad and extremely weak.

This can be seen from the fact that he lived in his twenties in history, and he died a few years after Zhao Xu died!

Over the past year, Xiong Qi used the Yi Jin Jing to cleanse the muscles and meridians of the whole body, and at the same time practiced "Pure Yang Wuji Gong" to practice Taoist internal strength. His body gradually became healthy and slowly returned to the level of a normal person.

"In the future, you can focus on internal energy cultivation. When your body grows at the age of thirteen, you will gather some essence and practice "Pure Yang Wuji Gong" with all your might and will be promoted to the innate as soon as possible!"

Xiong Qihan made plans for future cultivation.

He did not forget that he was facing Qin Lan's pursuit in this world.

If you cannot fully understand the innate realm in this world, even if you return to this world and cannot stimulate internal energy, you will still not be Qin Lan's opponent.

In this world, he is the prince of the Song Dynasty. He has no shortage of external objects and does not need to be tempered in the martial arts realm. As long as he practices with peace of mind, it is the best environment for concentration.

In this way, three years later, when the body turned thirteen years old, Xiong Qi began to practice the "Five Beasts Battle Strategy".
