Xudu, since Cao Cao moved the Han family here, this small city has become an important town in the world in one fell swoop.

After Cao Pi built Wei, the capital was moved to Luo, and the capital of Xu gradually lost its prosperity, but it was the capital of the old Han Dynasty, but there was no shortage of famous guests lingering here.

In the middle of the city, in a garden.

There are several corridors, and stone tables and bamboo chairs are placed under the willows in the garden.

A group of people were talking and laughing, the cool breeze was blowing, the willow branches were swaying, although there was a cold, but also suddenly felt refreshed.

Another woman was playing the piano, singing a word, and the sound of the piano and the cappella seemed to penetrate the pores of the human body, straight to the heart, making people feel comfortable.

It wasn't until the end of the song, when the lingering sound was exhausted, that everyone came back to their senses, and a young man said with a smile: "In the end, Brother Ruan is still the first, come, reward the silver." ”

But it is a literary meeting, filled with poems, sung by singers, and evaluated by nobles.

Seeing the maid waiting behind, she took out a plate of money from behind, with gold and silver on it, the young man glanced at it, then signaled to it, and said with a smile: "Brother Ruan, with your talent, it is a pity to be mixed here now, it is better to go to my house." ”

Ruan Xian was wearing a gray wide-sleeved robe, shaking a bamboo fan, got up and said with a smile: "The second son is too ridiculous, I like this kind of life, when the second son wants to teach the singing and dancing in the house, I will have fun again!" ”

"A song dumps four seats, and you still say it's fun?" The second son smiled heartily at this time: "If you don't have fun, won't you dump a country?" ”

Hearing this, the people present immediately burst into laughter, but not appreciation, most of them were joking.

Some said: "We have already seen it, today's second son has broken through the sky with one word, Ruan Xian is a great talent who overwhelms the world!" ”

After that, everyone couldn't help laughing, which added a little bit of ridicule.

When Ruan Xian heard this, his eyes flashed, and he smiled and did not answer.

The second son saw that everyone was laughing a little too much, so he said: "Brother Ruan, accept this gold and silver, if there is anything in the future, just come to me." ”

said a little sincerely, Ruan Xian was not polite at this time, bowed his hand, accepted the money and went generously.

"What a genius!" The second son looked at his back wistfully and sighed.

But he didn't say anything about recruiting again, and now he feels that current affairs are embarrassing, and he no longer has the same power as before, seeing that the throne that has not yet arrived is already a fire pit, and he doesn't want to jump down anymore.

Therefore, Sima You took refuge in Xudu, and even stopped caring about the affairs of the court, indulging in lustful dogs and horses, and also reassured Sima Yan that he was a younger brother.

Ruan Xian returned home, and his home was in a small mansion in Xudu City, with a river opposite, and a locust tree in the yard, about the thickness of the hug, and a huge canopy.

When I arrived at the courtyard, I saw that the courtyard was not really big, and there were only five rooms, and when I opened the door and entered, I saw a young woman greet me: "Husband, are you back?" ”

"Rong'er, I got some gold and silver today, you can keep it!"

The gold and silver were not small, and they were heavy, so the young woman smiled, took it, and said, "Husband, what are you going to eat today?" ”

"Just get some fish, and some mutton, and we'll use some later." After a pause, he said pityingly: "You have a body, be careful...... Where are Uncle and Brother Liu? ”

"I'm all reading in the study!" Rong'er replied.

These five rooms are two bedrooms, a hall, a study, and a kitchen, and there are some miscellaneous items.

When he arrived at the study, as soon as the cotton curtain was lowered, his whole body was immediately warm, Ruan Xian looked intently, and saw an old man and a middle-aged man sitting cross-legged on the warm kang and talking about something.

"Uncle! Brother Liu! ”

"Coming back?" This person who was called Uncle by Ruan Xian is Ruan Ji, because of current events, Ruan Ji is now living in his house, Liu Ling is too, and recently the DPRK is recruiting him again, he got the news early and fled.

"Yes, it's back." Ruan Xian smiled and went up, reached out and took out an oily paper bag, opened it and said: "Uncle, Brother Liu, my family is poor, I have wronged you these days, today I got some gold and silver from the second son of the Sima family, so I can be treated, I saw a butcher selling this beef on the road, and I saw it on the road and bought some for you, eat some to cushion your stomach first." ”

"No, we have something to tell you today, just sit down and close the door."

After Ruan Ji and Liu Ling glanced at each other at this time, Ruan Ji said.

Ruan Xian was stunned and closed the door, and suddenly the room was dark, and it took a while to see clearly.

At this time, I heard Liu Ling say leisurely: "Brother Xian, do you know our family's family background?" ”

"Yes, I know." Ruan Xian was puzzled for some reason, and sat next to him and asked.

"Our family is a clan, but also the family of the eunuchs, grandparents, also used to be two thousand stone county family, the ancestors also have two thousand stone officials, even if the world is in turmoil later, my family is also prosperous, until this industry is passed to my hands.

I am good at Taoism, I want to learn this art of cultivating immortals, but the old saying is right, the family has a thousand gold, and the cultivation of the law becomes water, no matter how you accumulate enough, if you cultivate the law, you will break the family, and this is the case in this world. Speaking of this, Liu Ling sighed slightly at this time.

"Brother Liu, in this world of great controversy, how many county families have been destroyed, although my family is two thousand stones, but now, it has obviously declined, if this industry is said to be the cause of decline, but in my hands, I am sorry for my nephew." Ruan Ji sighed with emotion at this time, but he was also in tears.

Ruan Xian lost his father and mother when he was young, that is, his uncle brought him up, usually teaching knowledge, and the relationship is deeper than that between father and son, when he saw his old tears, his heart suddenly hurt, and he quickly knelt on the ground: "Uncle, what are you talking about, you are usually closer to me than my son, I am your one hand to help grow up, if my uncle says this again, I will kneel on the ground and not get up!" ”

"Well, good nephew, good boy, I said something wrong, hurry up!" Ruan Ji hurriedly wiped his tears and helped his nephew up, at this time, the ground is still cold, and after kneeling for a long time, the cold will penetrate the bones, and the joints will be broken, how can this be.

"Let's listen to Brother Liu!"

After Ruan Ji sighed, he turned to Liu Ling and said, even if it was a dark room at this time, Liu Ling's eyes were shining.

"Thanks to the grace of my ancestors, I am still a little wise, and I have achieved some results, only to know that it is the most reasonable thing to break the family after cultivating the Fa, and I can only use it on others, and I can't enjoy anything, so I know that becoming a monk is just to avoid the disaster of cultivating the Fa and my family!"

"Brother Ruan, can you know that if it weren't for my Taoist calculations, how could I be the image of my family and my talent back then, and how could I have the reputation of this "Seven Sages"? Speaking of which, this cultivation method is also useful, and the Da Ruan brothers naturally know it. ”

Liu Ling intersected with Ruan Ji and Ruan Xian, and they were all equals, so they were called Da Ruan and Xiao Ruan.

"Hey, that's why didn't I teach you the Fa-rectification even though I also got some true Fa? From Brother Liu, I know that this cultivation method is going to break the family. ”

Seeing that Ruan Xian was a little unconvinced, Ruan Ji said with a wry smile: "This is a heavenly opportunity, I don't want to say it, in short, over the years, I have taught you to read and read the scriptures, but I have never taught you the truth of Taoism, if you have several sons in the future, maybe you can divide one to inherit this knowledge, if you can learn it from Brother Liu, he is a great talent." ”

Liu Ling was not modest at this time, and after smiling slightly, she said:

"Over the years, I have traveled all over the world, studied numerology, and found a way to find a person who is lucky, and made friends with you, so that they are collectively called the Seven Sages, do you think that the seven of us, except for Ruan Sizong and Ji Shuye, the other people are half-tones, but we are mutually successful, but if there is no one, most of us can't even be one of the Seven Sages, this is someone who relies on life, someone relies on talent, and only then can this achievement!"

Hearing this, Ruan Xian thought about it and realized that he was not a high-minded person, and he understood a little bit.

"Originally, these words were to be hidden for a lifetime, we have our own lives, Brother Xiao Ruan, if your luck comes, take advantage of the life you have borrowed over the years, you can rush to the sky, and you will be very rich in the future, but today I received a letter, which made me feel a whim."

"Over the years, I have placed my affection on the landscape, but my Taoism has become more and more visible, originally I thought that we were like this, I took this letter, and calculated it, but I found that our numerology has changed."

"A few years ago, I calculated for Brother Xiao Ruan, knowing that you may have great wealth in a few years, and you have the hope of worshipping the prime minister, but there is also the difficulty of the evening scene, it seems to be a big murderous appearance, I want to deduce but can't deduce, when I re-divinate today, I suddenly found that your wealth and nobility are still in your body, and it is more pressing than before, but the fierce appearance has faded a little later, and I talked with Brother Da Ruan, and I knew the reason for this."

Ruan Ji nodded at this time before he said:

"Before, there was a letter to send me to the table, hehe, Sima's wolf heart, but I don't want to follow it, and avoid living here with you, but this can only be avoided for a while, and it can't be avoided after all;

For example, today, the Three Kingdoms War, I thought that it should be Wei swallowing the world, and the Sima clan replacing it, but now after discussing with Brother Liu, I noticed that the sky had changed, and the Han Dynasty actually had a male master;

I also know this Han master, but I feel that the heavens are confused, this person is like the abyssal sea, I can only see his life on the surface, and it is difficult to figure out inside, and I can't figure it out! ”

Hearing his uncle Ruan Ji's words, Ruan Xian's body stiffened at this time, and he lowered his voice: "Could it be that this new Han lord should be the male lord true dragon?" ”

Ruan Ji sighed and said: "It's easy to know and hard to do, with our Dao numbers, it's easy to peep into a few days, but it's difficult to act on the number of lives, whether it's a real dragon, I don't know, and I don't dare to say." ”

Liu Ling went on to say at this time:

"The mortals of the world, the battle is not good, but also change the way, take refuge in the new master, our warriors, once they enter the world from the dragon, fight for dominance in the world, they will die, and the troubled times of the past dynasties are all like this.

Over the years, how many scholars have died in vain? It's us, the name is spread all over the world, but we don't dare to use Taoism to intervene, using this divination is already the limit, otherwise it will implicate the family, but there is a little principle, but you can talk to Brother Xiao Ruan. ”

"Brother Liu, please give me some advice." Ruan Xian sat upright and said seriously.

"The world is in turmoil, in fact, all states and counties have dragon energy, this is the hidden dragon, the dragon fights in the wild, its blood is yellow, no matter how strong the dragon qi is, it may not be able to go to the end, no matter how weak the dragon qi, if you can seize the opportunity to annex it dragon, it can also grow, so each dragon actually has a chance, and there is no fixed number!

For example, in this Shu land, the dragon qi is not thick, I am the blood of the Han family, so I can observe the luck of the Yan Han, I have carefully confirmed, the Yan Han is now very thin dragon qi, although the foundation is strong, but the dragon pillar is weak, if it is investigated, it is only a small dragon, but I have discussed with Daxian, but I know that if Yan Han can seize the opportunity, enter the customs or Jing, and then win the dragon qi of a state, you can fly the dragon in the sky, and then fight for the real dragon in the world, these big Ruan brothers also know. ”

Ruan Ji nodded, and then said:

"This true dragon's way, in the final analysis, lies in the battle, the meaning is to have a bright vision, effective combat, can gather people, can use people, and have a law.

It is okay to use the world's laws to analyze, why is it said that the Han lord is now the male lord, I also inquired about some things, and my uncle will analyze one or two for you. ”

"Uncle, please speak."

"The new lord of Yan Han, when he was in danger last year, was the regent, and ruled over only one city, when Yan Han was in danger, it was not suitable to use troops, if he was defeated, he would not be lucky from now on, even if there were other factors and prosper, it was also foreign luck, but for the new lord of Yan Han, it was an unstable foundation, in such a situation, the new lord of Yan Han for the future, he dared to disregard life and death, risked to fight in the mountains, went deep behind the enemy, and attacked the enemy at night in one fell swoop, which shows the bravery of the new lord of Yan Han, and the ambition to break the boat.

At that time, the new lord of the Yan Han Dynasty built this great achievement, but did not take the opportunity to conquer the Quartet, but to govern a county, now you and I both know that this move is of far-reaching significance, reclaiming wasteland, pacifying the people, and establishing a army, this is all a move to consolidate the foundation and cultivate the yuan, whether intentionally or not, the new lord of the Yan Han Dynasty understands what is the foundation of luck and the foundation of the emperor!

And to the dignified and upright, raise troops to base on the enemy, and then seize the West County, a break Jia Chong, this is based on the prestige, and then it will be out of control, and then fight Deng Ai, seize four counties, govern three counties, so that it can be called the male lord.

If it is just like this, that is, the Yan Han Zhaolie was general, but in just a few months, he will take the second county of Xiliang, Jia Chong in World War II, and the head of the army, and then turn to fight for thousands of miles, destroy 100,000 troops in World War I, Ansan three counties, and capture one county, at this time it can be called a real dragon! ”

After Ruan Ji finished speaking, Liu Ling took out a letter and handed it over, Ruan Xian lit the oil lamp and looked at it carefully, but his face was embarrassed.

"It's just that I'm still ......" Ruan Xian frowned at this time and said, he still has an official position, but the official position is low, and the salary is not thick, but it can also allow him to survive in Xudu, at this time he remembered the way of loyalty.

Ruan Ji waved his hand and said:

"Nephew, since the decline of the Zhong Han Dynasty, dragons have risen everywhere, every state in the world, there are dragons stupid, want to chase the real dragon, my family was also the minister of the Yan Han Dynasty, but now it is the minister of Cao Wei, sit and watch Sima's wolf's heart, if you talk about loyalty, we should splash Sima's blood at this time five steps!

It's just that our scholar clan not only wants to talk about loyalty, but also for the family, this is the way to survive, the Sima clan is dominant in Cao Wei, originally strong, but Sima Zhao is old after all, although Sima Yan has great ambitions, but he has no great ability, it seems that there is not much opportunity, I have finished speaking, nephew, you decide for yourself! ”

After Ruan Ji finished speaking, he seemed to have finished a matter on his mind, closed his eyes, and recuperated.

Ruan Xian pondered, and after a while, he said generously: "Since my uncle said so, then I will go to Yanhan with Brother Liu, and tomorrow I will pack up my things and go to Shudi!" ”

When Liu Ling heard this, she was overjoyed, and after getting up, she bowed and saluted: "Brother Ruan is going, I should lead the horse for you!" ”

After the courtesy, Liu Ling looked at Ruan Ji again and asked: "Brother Da Ruan, your ability, in this Wei country, isn't it buried, why not together?" ”

Ruan Ji waved his hand at this time and said: "I am already in the year of knowing the destiny of heaven, not to mention that I am reluctant to have a family business, I can only wish the two of you a prosperous journey and a bright future!" ”

Ruan Xian did not persuade, but he also knew that if he went, he would be expelled from the Ruan family, of course, if in the future, Yan Han would win the world again, then his branch would be the main line of the Ruan family.
