The eldest princess Xuanzhen looked at Li Xuandu, a complicated look flashed on her face, and said, "Thank you Zifu for your concern, I'm fine." Since I am in the rivers and lakes, Zifu should not call me the eldest princess, but call me 'Yuying'. ”

Li Xuandu nodded, and was as good as a stream: "I don't know why the mage left the imperial capital and appeared here?"

Yuying Zhengse said: "This matter has nothing to do with the Purple Mansion, I forgive you for it." ”

Li Xuandu was not surprised by this answer, and glanced at the surrounding crowd with the rest of his eyes.

Yu Ying understood and ordered, "You guys should stand down." ”

Gonggong Ma, who had originally lowered his head, raised his head and hesitated: "Your Highness......"

Li Xuandu said: "If I want to be unfavorable to the mage, what is the difference between you being present or not?"

Yuying said expressionlessly: "Stand down." ”

Ma Gonggong no longer insisted, and withdrew from this place with a group of servants.

This is a corridor between the lobby and the flower hall, and outside the corridor is a courtyard, after Ma Gonggong and others left, only Li Xuandu, Zhou Shuning and Yuying were left.

There was a chic pavilion not far away for people to sit idly, and Li Xuandu stretched out his hand and made a "please" gesture: "Master, go over there and talk." ”

Yuying glanced at the handsome young man who was following Li Xuandu, and asked, "Who is this young man?"

Li Xuandu stretched out his hand to take off the "Baihua Spiritual Face" on Zhou Shuning's face, and said, "Sister Zhou Shuning, Shuning, come and see the mage." ”

Zhou Shuning has also heard of the name of the eldest princess, among the many royal clans, she is the only one who has a good reputation in Shilin, her father Zhou Tingchao had praised the words and deeds of the eldest princess before his death, so he saluted respectfully and said: "I have seen Master Yuying." ”

Yuying smiled and returned the etiquette.

Zhou Shuning hurriedly turned sideways, and only received half a salute.

Then the three of them walked into the small pavilion, Li Xuandu and Yuying sat opposite each other, and Zhou Shuning stood obediently behind Li Xuandu.

Yuying sighed a little and said: "The matter of Tianbao's second year is really beyond my expectations, and when I learn the news, it is already the building about to collapse, and it is irretrievable......

Li Xuandu said: "This matter is a long story, and there are many strange points, so it is not appropriate to conclude it." ”

Yuying hesitated for a moment and asked, "Do you want to go back to the imperial capital?"

Li Xuandu nodded and said bluntly: "I must go back, but not now." ”

Yuying's face turned slightly pale, and she couldn't help but say, "You want to avenge the Zhang family?"

Li Xuandu looked at Her Royal Highness the eldest princess Xuanzhen, who was good-looking, her eyes were clear and firm, and she had no evil thoughts, but it made Yuying feel weak for no reason.

After a long time, Li Xuandu slowly spoke: "Revenge? The mage may have underestimated me too much, and he also underestimated Zhang Xiang

。 ”

If Li Xuandu returned to the imperial capital just to take revenge, Yuying would be much easier, but after Li Xuandu flatly denied it, Yuying's heart suddenly hung up. She couldn't help but look at this young man who had been absent for nearly five years again, and there were indeed too many differences from the young man who was going to show his edge back then.

Yu Ying shook her head lightly and said, "If it was the Purple Mansion Sword Immortal back then, he would never be able to say such a thing, he would only choose revenge." ”

Li Xuandu turned around and said, "Master still remember, what did you say when we first met?"

Without waiting for Yuying to answer, Li Xuandu had already asked and answered to himself: "Master, you said: 'The true intention of the sword is not to kill, but to hide. Your sword is too sharp and too rigid and easy to break, so it must be well hidden in its scabbard. ’”

Yu Ying recalled this past, and the corners of her mouth had a smile, and said: "At that time, you said: 'A sword is a sword, a sword is a murder weapon, and a sword is a killing technique, how can you kill people without sheathing?'"

Li Xuandu sighed with emotion: "Although there are still people who call me the Purple Mansion Sword Immortal, I know that the current Li Xuandu is completely different from the Purple Mansion Sword Immortal back then. ”

"Back then, I didn't tell me which family you were a disciple of, how powerful the master was, how many pounds and taels of the sword in his hand was better than how many people. In my opinion, the battle of swordsmanship, one life and one death, high and low are seen. At that time, I was a man with a sword, a pure swordsman. ”

"If there are four seasons in life, some people are in spring before the age of twenty, and the spring breeze is proud. Some people are in winter before they are twenty years old, and they don't know when they will be left with only a white expanse and die cleanly. Before I was twenty years old, it was autumn, the season of killing and withering, and it was said that the autumn queen asked to kill, and the autumn was the main killing, so it was also the most suitable season to kill. ”

"I held a sword at the age of five, from an ordinary iron sword to today's 'human world', I can survive in the rivers and lakes with three feet in my hand. ”

"I killed people when I was seven years old, and I never stopped for more than a decade. It's not that I like to kill, but because I want to find a way out of this world, I have to kill people. ”

"Swordsmanship is the art of killing, and this is the way I did my sword before I was twenty years old. Li Xuandu looked at Yuying: "Now, I have taken a completely different path. ”

Yuying couldn't help but ask, "What kind of road?"

Li Xuandu said: "When the power of one person is finally exhausted, practicing a sword cannot save the world." ”

Yuying faintly guessed a little, and couldn't help sighing.

Li Xuandu said: "Nanhua Daojun once said "On the Sword", he said that there are three kinds of swords in the world, namely: the sword of the Son of Heaven, the sword of the princes, and the sword of the Shuren. No matter how powerful the sword of the Shuren is, it is only ten steps for one person, and the husband is angry, and the blood is splashed for five steps. The sword of the princes, with the warriors as the edge, the incorruptible as the spine, the loyal and the saintly as the spine, the loyal and the sage, and the heroic warrior as the clamp, a sword can block a million divisions. The sword of the Son of Heaven is the national weapon of the world

The sword is based on the five elements, and the punishment is based on virtue, and the opening is based on yin and yang, and the line is held in spring and summer, and the line is in autumn and winter. Straight and forward, supreme, case, unsided, up to the clouds, down to the Jedi, a sword light cold nineteen states. I don't dare to ask for the sword of the Son of Heaven, I just want to help people forge a sword of the Son of Heaven, sweep away the troubled times, cleanse the mud and muddy water, clear the world and restore peace, and recreate a bright future. ”

Yuying looked at Li Xuandu deeply, and said word by word: "Today's saint inherits the great unification, is for the emperor of the Son of Heaven, I don't know who you want to help forge a sword?"

"Is it the Son of Heaven?" Li Xuandu raised his voice slightly: "The name is the Son of Heaven, can he be the master of big and small affairs? Can he control his own safety? If not, he is not as good as me, a person from the rivers and lakes, how can I talk about the Son of Heaven." ”

Yu Ying was silent, and only after a long time did she say, "What are you talking to me about?"

Li Xuandu said: "Among the many royal clans, only the eldest princess Xuanzhen is the only one that I admire, in that situation back then, the eldest princess was the only one who was willing to help us, so I don't want the mage to end up in a situation from which I will never recover." ”

Yuying is a person who has seen strong winds and waves, and she will not be frightened by Li Xuandu's words at all, and raised her eyebrows: "False words and intimidation?"

Li Xuandu smiled and said, "Whether it's a lie or not, the mage knows it in his heart." Now the imperial court has reached a dangerous situation, but it is barely maintained, Sun Songchan and others are just pasteurs. The four ministers who could save the Great Wei, along with their new policies, are dead. The mage is a person who has been in the temple for a long time, and even if I don't say these words, the mage must know them. ”

Yuying remained silent, neither agreeing nor opposing.

Li Xuandu continued: "Under the internal and external troubles, one day, the sky will fall apart, both ancient and modern. On that day, whether the mage will accompany the funeral or make preparations in advance, maybe there will be a turnaround. ”

Talking to someone like Yuying, you don't have to say it too thoroughly, Yuying already understands what Li Xuan is going to say, and said: "Zifu is here to let me cooperate with you inside and out." ”

Li Xuandu didn't answer directly, but instead asked, "Master is on this trip, but he is going to see Zhao Lianggeng, the governor of Jingchu?"

Yuying nodded.

Li Xuandu asked again, "Then does the mage know why I am here?"

Yuying looked up at Li Xuandu and frowned, "It's not a coincidence?"

Li Xuandu said: "Someone deliberately arranged it, that person is under the command of the Northwest Taiyun, and he is in a high position in the Northwest." Although I don't know what the mage went to see Zhao Lianggeng for, I know that Zhao Lianggeng is deeply involved with the earth master, and Taiyun doesn't want you to have anything to do with the earth master. ”

Yuying said: "The management of Taiyun is too wide. ”

"Let's not talk about Taiyun. Li Xuandu said: "The earth master is the king of Qi, the mage is a person from the heavenly family, he should know the king of Qi better than me, and intersecting with this person is equivalent to seeking skin with the tiger, and I hope the mage will be cautious." ”
