Zhike didn't go to Lin Quan, but Lin Quan looked for Zhike and asked if Zhuang Jiutong was still there.

Hearing Lin Quan ask, Zhike looked at Lin Quan like a ghost, Lin Quan couldn't help but smile bitterly, touched his body, fortunately there was still a little broken silver, so he handed the broken silver to Zhike, and told Zhike that he had received Zhuang Jiutong's great grace, and this time he came to repay his kindness.

Zhike took the silver and smiled, but soon sighed and told Lin Quan that Zhuang Jiutong died in the autumn of the fourth year of Jingzheng.

Lin Quan didn't expect this, so he couldn't help but be stunned, and asked where Zhuang Jiutong's grave was, and Zhike also took Lin Quan to the mountainside.

Lin Quan thanked the guest, walked to the tomb, and personally pulled out the grass next to Zhuang Jiutong's tomb.

Zhuang Jiutong can be regarded as his benefactor, Nie Yunfeng's parents don't agree with them being together, only Zhuang Jiutong helps him.

I didn't expect that the years would not be forgiving, and the old man also died.

"What's the use of you being cowardly here?"

Although Lin Quan no longer had the appearance of a noble son, how could Nie Yunfeng not recognize him.

Lin Quan turned around, Nie Yunfeng's appearance was still as beautiful as before, but it was a little more dusty.

Lin Quan didn't know how to face it, but said calmly: "Senior Zhuang is a good elder, and I will never forget his kindness to me." ”

"Master Lin, you are still a grateful person."

Nie Yunfeng's words silenced Lin Quan, and Lin Quan rubbed the soil into incense, and respectfully saluted the incense.

After Lin Quan finished saluting, Nie Yunfeng asked Lin Quan: "Master Lin, what are you doing when you come this time?" ”

"Empress Dowager Chu, now in Zhouliu Mountain."

Nie Yunfeng nodded, Lin Quan saw that there was no one around, and said to Nie Yunfeng: "This matter is absolutely impossible, Yunfeng, do you know that even if you succeed, you will only cause death." ”

"Master Lin, it seems that we have already talked about this, so there is no need to talk about it."

Lin Quan told Nie Yunfeng that now it is not what it used to be, the Empress Dowager Chu didn't know at that time, but now that the Empress Dowager Chu knows, it will be even more difficult for them to succeed.

Lin Quan said that the Empress Dowager Chu was extremely deep in the city and extremely difficult to deal with, and they were now rashly attacking, just afraid that it would be difficult to succeed.

Nie Yunfeng told Lin Quan that they naturally knew that this matter was difficult to deal with, so they didn't have to do it, and Lin Quan didn't have to worry about it more than nothing, they were not brave and unscrupulous, this time, they would naturally have a proper plan.

Lin Quan sighed and told Nie Yunfeng: "Yunfeng, do you know that when the time comes, it will affect Qi Yun. ”

"We naturally have a way to do this, your saint, but the wise and martial king, will never implicate the innocent."

Lin Quan was choked, it was true that this incident had really happened, and it would be Nie Yunfeng's family who was unlucky at that time, and the saint would never implicate the entire Feiyun Sect.

Now that Yu Ting is in his prime, the saint is now considered the Holy Lord Mingjun, and he will never smear himself for this matter.

Of course, this is not clear, after all, this matter is so big, and the saint may also be angry and lose his proportion.

Lin Quan didn't know how to talk to Nie Yunfeng for a while, but he was silent.

Nie Yunfeng didn't speak, the two were silent, and after a long time, Nie Yunfeng asked, "Are you okay in Xirong?"

Lin Quan just said calmly: "I feel guilty every night, and it is difficult to sleep peacefully." ”

"Such a great achievement, even people outside my world know that you have something to feel guilty about."

Nie Yunfeng looked at the west and said, "Defeat the elite of the two countries and break the alliance of the princes." Among the Confucian crowns, only you can go to the Qilin Pavilion. Even if the people from Xirong come here to mention your Lin Quan's name, they are terrified. ”

"Do you know what they are afraid of, is this invincible battle, invincible, all they tremble is that after the army, there is no grass."

Lin Quan said what Yu Jun did, and now, he doesn't have to hide his opinion, and he doesn't need to say anything beautiful, the soldier's life and life are ruined, but he just fills in the great achievements of the saint.

The soldier is an unknown weapon, and the saint has to use it as a last resort, but this time, there is nothing to use as a last resort, and the establishment of the Anxi Protectorate is not good for the people in the world.

Lin Quan said that the war was already unjust, so naturally he couldn't talk about the division of the king. It's really pitiful and uncertain riverside bones, and he is a person in a deep dream.

When Lin Quan talked about this, he also said that he had read the book of sages in vain, and he couldn't let the sages promote the royal way.

He believed that cultural identity was more effective than military recognition, and he preferred to teach in Xijon rather than break the national government and attack the coalition army. He was willing to be a wise man, not a prisoner.

Nie Yunfeng listened quietly, and waited until Lin Quan finished speaking before he spoke: "Master Lin, you are still a scholar. ”

"Reader?"

"Yes, it's just Master Lin, you don't have the backbone, Mencius said to cultivate the spirit of Haoran, but you only have the spirit of wine and wealth in your chest, the distinction of righteousness and benefit, Master Lin, have you really seen through it?"

Lin Quan laughed at himself and said that he was a person who fought for a basket, and he was wise, even if his father was reincarnated and Yanzi was reborn, he would not change what he said.

When Nie Yunfeng heard this, he couldn't help but sigh and said, "Master Lin, are you just giving up on yourself like this?"

"Then what can I do Yunfeng, Yunfeng, people are too small, in front of heaven and earth, they can't even count as mustard seeds, all people can do is to try to survive."

Lin Quan said this truth, his father had already seen it clearly, and it was only a matter of Haojue to kill people. This soft knife of fame and fortune will be smoothed out, no matter what kind of hero you are.

And now that he has a family, he has to think about his three wives, they can be willing to be plain, but what's wrong with being so rich and glorious.

Hearing this, Nie Yunfeng looked at Lin Quan's eyes and said to Lin Quan: "Everyone has their own ambitions, Lin Quan, since you already have three wives who love you, why should you be obsessed with the past?"

"Forget, Yunfeng, can you forget it now?"

When Lin Quan said this, he looked at Nie Yunfeng's eyes, and Nie Yunfeng also looked at Lin Quan calmly.

The two looked at each other in silence again, and finally Lin Quan was defeated and said to Nie Yunfeng, "I want to meet the Empress Dowager Chu." ”

Nie Yunfeng nodded, and took Lin Quan to a clean courtyard, and after Nie Yunfeng went in to say goodbye, the Empress Dowager Chu summoned Lin Quan.

Empress Dowager Chu sat on top of the futon, her eyes closed, as if she was meditating.

After Lin Quan saluted, Empress Dowager Chu opened her eyes and said to Lin Quan, "Lin Quan, I didn't expect that we would meet here. ”

"It's the minister who is rude."

"Yunfeng, you go down first."

After Nie Yunfeng retreated, Empress Dowager Chu said to Lin Quan: "This time, you can be regarded as a great meritorious, I don't know what reward the saint has." ”

Lin Quan told the saint about the reward and said that he was very satisfied with this reward.

After hearing this, the Empress Dowager Chu said to Lin Quan: "At the beginning, Shizong once said that the war between Xirong and the Central Plains was not for the benefit of using swords and soldiers, but for the influence of gods and Buddhas, the exchange of transportation, the prosperity of trade, the spread of writing, and the matchmaking of marriage. From this point of view, today's saints, compared to Sejong, are still "

Empress Dowager Chu sighed, Lin Quan said that the saint did this in order to survive and let Ulysses become the emperor, which was the only benevolence through the ages.

"Lin Quan, do you know why Han Bai was killed that day."

"I don't know." Lin Quan knew that the reason why Han Bai was killed at that time was basically unreliable, and the real reason was that Han Bai participated in the struggle of the Second Queen, which was the three major crimes killed than the Empress Dowager Xiaoyi.

On the same day, he advocated that with the elite soldiers of the Central Plains, take Xirong in the west and the princes of Nanping, so that the world would be one. If you have a heart, you can also find his superiors in the palace and fold them in half. At that time, the Empress Dowager Xiaowen and the Empress Dowager Xiaoyi both rejected the excerpt. At the beginning of the dynasty, all the people in the world thought about it, if they acted according to Han Bai's excerpts, I am afraid that by now, the country will no longer have the surname Yu. ”

"Sage, he is bent on establishing a foundation that has never been seen in the past, and he has all the kings in the sea, and it is nothing. And in terms of martial arts, he still has a place where he can surpass the ancients, and this time the establishment of the Anxi Protectorate is just a beginning. ”

When Lin Quan heard this, he still argued for the saint, and now the saint is no longer in the mood for the sword soldiers, which the Empress Dowager Chu can rest assured.

Empress Dowager Chu shook her head and told Lin Quan that this saint is unwilling, but there is one person who will not do it, Concubine Ping has always liked military books, even if the saint is unwilling to send troops, and Concubine Ping will persuade the saint to send troops.

Speaking of this, the Empress Dowager Chu thought about it and told Lin Quan, hoping that Lin Quan would be able to advise the saint more in the future, and now such a feat is already a flying dragon in the sky, if it is further, I am afraid that Kanglong will regret it.

When Lin Quan heard this, he felt that something was wrong in his heart, and hurriedly asked tentatively: "Queen Mother, the minister must not dare to say much about this matter. The Queen Mother was also asked to personally instruct the saints. ”

"Lin Quan, why do you bother to say these unspeakable words in front of this palace. Nie Tianyuan's family wants the life of this palace, you know, otherwise why would you come here when you return to the imperial court. ”

Empress Dowager Chu said calmly and told Lin Quan that she had already arranged all this, and Lin Quan's arrival was not what she expected. She asked Lin Quan to come here in the hope of using Lin Quan's hand to break a public case.

After Lin Quan heard this, he looked at the Empress Dowager Chu in surprise and asked what kind of public case he was.

Empress Dowager Chu closed her eyes and said to Lin Quan: "When I was young, I did some things with scheming, and these things were right or wrong, they were all insignificant. Although there is no right or wrong in things, there must be cause and effect, and some things have not yet come to fruition, and now is the time. ”

Speaking of this, Empress Dowager Chu asked Lin Quan to tell Nie Yunfeng that on the fifteenth night of the first lunar month, she was here, waiting for their family to completely end the matter.
