Sui and Tang Dynasties: Awakening the Supreme Skills at the Beginning

Li Zhen couldn't help but look up.

In the middle of the road, a frightened warhorse was running wildly and madly on the street.

On the war horse, there was a woman lying on the horse's butt in fear.

Behind the warhorse, there were three big men chasing.

Suddenly, a child appeared in front of the war horse. The child was frightened when he saw the frightened horse. He fell to the ground and burst into tears.

"Sorry..."

The war horses were frightened and the men stood up, watching as the child was about to die.

"Get out of the way!"

"do not want!"

"That child is so pitiful, please save him!"

Passersby around screamed and exclaimed.

At the critical moment, Li Zhen took a step forward and protected the child under him.

Then raise your palm and punch forward.

"Bang" sound.

The warhorse was knocked to the ground and could not get up, while the woman on the horse also flew up due to inertia.

"what!"

The woman who fell off the horse was lying on the ground with her legs spread out, glaring at Li Zhen with her beautiful eyes.

Li Zhen was like a god descending from the sky, extremely tall and majestic.

Everyone around was dumbfounded.

Resisting the horse's hooves and knocking over a galloping warhorse with one punch, this is not a strength that a normal person can possess!

Li Zhen picked up the child and handed him to the child's parents who rushed over.

"Thank you so much, sir!"

The woman took the child, her eyes moistened, and she kept thanking Li Zhen.

"No need to say thank you for your efforts!"

Li Zhen waved his hand and turned to look at the woman lying on the ground.

The woman on the ground groaned and climbed up. She had a frown on her face and was wearing a yellow skirt with an emerald green jade pendant hanging around her waist. Her hair was a little messy and her phoenix hairpin was tilted to one side.

What surprised Li Zhen was that the woman was not very old, about fifteen or sixteen years old, with a beautiful figure and a curvy body.

That pretty face was looking at him with gritted teeth, and the two small canine teeth at the corners of her mouth gave her a feeling of being fierce and ferocious.

The woman put her hands on her lower back, grimacing. She wanted to rub it but didn't dare to. She was extremely embarrassed.

Li Zhen suppressed his smile and turned to leave.

But then I heard a clear female voice, like the singing of an oriole.

"Why did you knock over my horse?"

The sound was pleasant, but clearly unpleasant.

Li Zhen: "..."

What's the point?

Are there such unreasonable people in the world?

Li Zhen turned around and said, "If I don't knock over your horse, are you waiting for your horse to trample the child to death?"

The woman frowned and looked at Li Zhen, "No matter what, you shouldn't have knocked over my horse!"

"Don't think you can be unreasonable just because you're a woman!"

Li Zhen didn't want to say anything more to this unreasonable woman, so he turned around and was about to leave.

The woman picked up the horsewhip on the ground and raised her hand to whip Li Zhen.

Li Zhen heard the sound of wind behind him and dodged.

Li Zhen turned around and looked at the woman behind him, "How dare you hit someone casually? Who gave you the courage? Didn't your parents teach you a lesson?"

The woman looked at Li Zhen's clear and bright eyes and felt aggrieved.

If he hadn't knocked over his own horse, he wouldn't have fallen so badly and wouldn't have made a fool of himself in the street.

"If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have fallen off my horse."

"I'm afraid that's not the case!"

"You were riding a horse in a busy city, which is no different from murder. It happened in front of everyone. Even if it was reported to the authorities, you were the one who made the first mistake. Not only did you not apologize, but you blamed me for knocking over your warhorse. Do you still have the law in your eyes? Do you own this world?"

Li Zhen was also very unceremonious. He didn't care at all that the other party was a woman and directly retorted.

"you……"

"Anyway, it's your fault!"

"Humph! You're a grown man, but you don't know how to give in to others."

At this time, a group of horsemen came galloping, dismounted when they got close, and surrounded the place.

When women see it, they feel happy.

"Brother! Brother! It's all because of him that I made such a fool of myself. You have to avenge me!"

The woman seemed to have seen a savior. She walked to a man in gorgeous clothes, pointed at Li Zhen and cried.

The man glanced at his sister and found that there was no big problem. He ignored her and walked towards Li Zhen with a smile.

"My sister is being rude, please don't be offended, brother!"

"Humph!"

Seeing that her brother was not on her side, the woman smiled apologetically to Li Zhen, then turned around and snorted coldly at Li Zhen.

"You are too polite, brother. I won't argue with a girl!"

The man was very polite, so Li Zhen didn't want to get angry and just pretended nothing had happened.

But although the words were polite, there was a hint of sarcasm towards the woman between the lines.

"Humph!"

The woman snorted coldly when she heard that, and showed her fierce little fangs.

Obviously, he understood what Li Zhen meant.

"Little sister, please don't be rude." The young man scolded softly, then bowed again.

"My name is Li Shaoan, may I know your name?"

Considering that the man was well-educated and well-mannered, Li Zhen no longer bothered about the woman's rudeness.

"My name is Li Zhen."

Li Shaoan was stunned for a moment, then said politely.

"I have admired you for a long time!"

Li Zhen was speechless. Was his name really that famous? How come everyone had heard of him?

"You stingy guy! Don't you know how to give in to me?"

"Ying Xue!" Li Shaoan scolded again, turned around and said to Li Zhen with a smile.

"This is my younger sister. She has been spoiled since she was young. I hope Brother Li will not blame her."

People say that you shouldn't hit someone who smiles at you. This brother and sister, one playing the good cop and the other the bad cop, really stumped Li Zhen.

Li Shaoan saw that Li Zhen looked unhappy, so he turned to Li Yingxue and said, "Why don't you come over and help Brother Li?"

"I don't want that, you stingy bastard!" Li Yingxue pouted, "Humph! My brother only helps outsiders bully me."

"Brother Li..."

Li Shaoan felt embarrassed. He had no way to deal with this arrogant sister.

This pair of siblings who were surrounded by each other did not seem like ordinary people. Li Shaoan was so polite that Li Zhen soon felt relieved.

Then he said, "Brother Li, you are too polite."

"My sister is arrogant and doesn't know the rules. I hope Brother Li will tolerate her."

Li Shaoan was still polite, which made Li Zhen look at him more highly.

"Brother, are you done talking? I'm hungry!"

On the other side, Li Yingxue became a little impatient.

"I'll be there right away." Li Shaoan responded, then bowed to Li Zhen.

"Brother Li, are you free now? Why don't we have a meal together? I'll take it as my sister's apology to you."

"No, I don't want to treat her to a meal!"

Li Yingxue on the side pouted her lips, looking unhappy.

This Li Shaoan is always polite and seems like a good person. I might as well try to make friends with him.

Such a thought suddenly popped up in Li Zhen’s mind.

"In this case, Li will not be polite!"

"You...how can you be so shameless! My brother was just being polite, why did you take it so seriously?"

Li Yingxue was immediately furious. She didn't want to invite this stingy guy to dinner, let alone apologize!

"Ying Xue, if you continue to act unreasonably like this, go home immediately."

Li Shaoan looked like he was really angry, and his tone became much heavier.

When Li Yingxue heard what her brother said, she immediately shut up and looked unhappy.

I have finally come out, how can I go back now? I must not upset my brother. It’s all that stingy guy’s fault!

"Brother Li, please!"

Li Shaoan said politely.

"Okay, let's go to Baoyue Tower."

Li Zhen smiled and bowed, "Brother Li, you are too polite."

The two chatted and laughed as they headed straight for Baoyue Tower. On the way, Li Zhen learned that the brother and sister were actually the children of Li Jing, Duke of Dai, and their mother was Hong Funu.

Li Shaoan is calm and steady, and always polite to others, while Li Yingxue is spoiled, willful and capricious. It is hard to imagine that they are both born to the same mother.

About a quarter of an hour later, a group of people appeared in front of Baoyue Tower.

In Baoyue Tower, in an extremely luxurious room.

Xie Wanying, the most beautiful and stunning courtesan of Baoyue Tower, was sitting in front of an exquisite wooden table, sitting opposite a handsome young man. If anyone saw them, they would definitely think that they were a match made in heaven.

The two were drinking tea and chatting happily at the moment.

"I've often heard that there are so many talented people in Chang'an. Could you please tell me that there is another talented poet in the past few days?"

Sitting opposite Xie Wanying was the talented man from Chang'an, Ma Mo.

"Mr. Ma, why do you have to beat around the bush? It would be better to just say that Mr. Li Zhen is an unrivaled poet."

A blush suddenly appeared on Xie Wanying's fair face, and then disappeared in a flash. The corners of her mouth slightly raised as she asked back.

"Thank you everyone, do you also know Master Li Zhen?"

Ma Mo was slightly startled and said in surprise.

"Of course, Master Li Zhen also gave me a poem!"

Xie Wanying showed a proud look on her face, she puffed out her chest and raised her head, her face flushed.

What these women of the world like most is to pursue the outstanding and talented men. It is not because they admire their talents, but because these talented men can write poems for them, and the poems that are famous all over the world can raise their value.

Therefore, whenever a brilliant poet appears, they will invite him to meet them. If they can get one or two good poems from that person and compose music to sing them, their reputation will soar and their value will increase accordingly.

"What poem is that? Recite it for me to hear!"

"Mr. Ma, please listen to this poem."

Xie Wanying opened her mouth and chanted: "The clouds are like clothes and the flowers are like faces. The spring breeze blows against the threshold and the dew is thick. If we had not met on the top of the Jade Mountain, we would have met under the moon on the Jade Terrace."

"What a poem!"

Ma Mo slapped his hand on the table and stood up.

"Thank you for your extraordinary beauty, which naturally deserves this poem."

Ma Mo sighed, suddenly turned his head and asked again.

"Does he have any other poems?"

"No, I only met him a few times."

"What a shame! What a shame! If I were to meet Master Li Zhen in person, I would definitely ask for his advice!"

……

Before Li Zhen and others entered the door, a maid in beautiful clothes came out to greet them from afar.

Once we entered the inner gate, countless barmaids came forward one after another to ask if we needed a beauty to accompany us for drinking.

Li Shaoan waved his hand and sent the hostess away.

The group went up to the second floor, where they were surrounded by a group of beautiful singing girls and dancers.

Surrounded by dancers, Li Shaoan and others entered the room.

What Li Zhen didn't expect was that there was a gorgeous courtesan guarding the door of the room. Their every frown and smile were quiet, elegant and charming, giving people the feeling that they were entering a paradise of gentleness, making people unable to extricate themselves for a while.

It was really like Gongsun dismounting from his horse and being intoxicated by the fragrance, and he was willing to spend thousands of dollars for just one drink.

It's really a gold-spending den!

Li Yingxue bared his fangs angrily and drove all the dancers and the courtesan out.

Only then did Li Zhen and Li Shaoan sit down with peace of mind, talking, drinking and composing poetry.

Li Yingxue sat aside bored, frowning from time to time and pouting at Li Zhen.

After sitting for a long time, Li Yingxue suddenly stood up and said angrily: "Brother, you only know how to drink and chat with this stingy guy. Have you forgotten the purpose of this trip?"

"Purpose? What purpose?"

Li Shaoan asked back, pretending not to know.

"Let's go meet Mr. Xie. Isn't the reason why I went out today to meet Mr. Xie, who is famous in Baoyue Tower?"

"Cough cough!"

Li Shaoan coughed awkwardly twice, "Brother Li is still here, sister, please stop messing around!"

Only then did Li Zhen realize that the young prince had come just to see Xie Wanying's beauty.

"Since Brother Li is busy, Li Zhen will not disturb you."

After a long conversation, Li Zhen was very satisfied with Li Shaoan's talent and character and wanted to make friends with him.

He stood up and bowed, "When you have time in the future, you can come to the Shenxing Li family to find me. I will have a drink with Master Li some other day."

"Who wants to see you?"

Li Yingxue probably still hated Li Zhen in her heart, so she bared her teeth and spoke in a bad tone.

Li Zhen was speechless about this spoiled and unruly girl.

As a grown man, he naturally couldn't argue with a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl. At this moment, he remembered a saying that was regarded as the truth in the male circle in his previous life, "Never offend a woman casually, the consequences will be beyond your imagination."

Li Zhen shook his head, sighed, and looked helpless.

"Brother Li, my sister has been spoiled by her parents at home. Please don't be like her."

Li Shaoan really had no way to deal with his sister and could only apologize to Li Zhen repeatedly. His words were sincere and did not seem fake.

"Brother, how can you say that to someone like this in front of an outsider! Will you let your sister go out in the future?"

Li Yingxue stamped her feet angrily and spoke coquettishly while biting her lip.
