After Li Xuandu withdrew from the "Little Purple Mansion", he walked out of his study and came to the outer room. The study room here is connected to three rooms, the middle is the study, the innermost room is used for resting and resting, and the outer room can be used for receiving guests.

There is a big yin and yang double fish painted on the ground outside, and Qin Su is standing on the white spot of the "black fish", standing with his hands in his hands, looking up at the "Lu Zufei Sword Diagram" under the middle hall. When Li Xuandu stopped, he happened to stand on the black spot of the "white fish" and asked, "Susu, is there something?"

Qin Su retracted his gaze and asked, "What is Bai Meiniang looking for you?"

Li Xuandu did not hide it, and said: "It is the Extreme Heavenly King who has set his sights on the Tianle Sect, and I have already entrusted the second senior brother, aunt, Shi Yuyong, and Ning Gechen to deal with them." ”

Qin Su sighed, "No wonder they all say that they can't help themselves when they enter the rivers and lakes." In the rivers and lakes, the status is low, it is manipulated by others, and the status is high, but it is difficult to think about it, and it is very uncomfortable. That's true of Daddy, and so are you. ”

Li Xuan knew what Qin Su meant, and couldn't help but sigh along, "Otherwise, the rivers and lakes are not good places, but a vanity fair, and it is inevitable to walk in them." Fortunately, it has been a few years, and I can always see the difference, and when the time comes, whether it is successful or not, I can always be at ease. ”

Qin Su was taken aback, "How many years?"

Li Xuandu said "um", "Now the general trend, Liaodong's entry into the customs will be in the next few years, when the world is peaceful is the best, I can retire, if not, I am afraid that I don't have the ability to turn the tide, I can only be rich to help the world, poor to be alone." ”

"Really, are you really going to be alone?" Qin Su couldn't believe it, "I thought you wanted to ...... again."

"Do you want to repay him with death?" Li Xuandu said with a smile, "I am not a king, how can I talk about repaying the king with death? On my shoulders, there are the Taiping Sect, the Tianle Sect, the Jing Zen Sect, the Inn, the Daomen, and you, how can you die from others? ”

Qin Su breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this.

She is a delicate person, and recently she has found that Li Xuandu has changed greatly, especially after starting to oppose Confucianism, although Li Xuandu still talks to her as usual on the surface, but she faintly perceives that Li Xuandu is always preoccupied, and there is no ease at all, and she can't help but worry that he will embark on an extreme road again. After all, Li Xuan had a similar past, and when he was in the Imperial Capital City, he almost died.

Qin Su can see Li Xuandu's thoughts, and Li Xuandu can certainly also detect Qin Su's worries, this is the difference between Qin Su and Zhang Baiyue, if it is Zhang Baiyue, she is a real strong woman, and it is a big deal to die together, and although Qin Su has the style of a hermit, he is still quite traditional in his heart, and hopes that all those who care can be safe and sound, and start and finish well. Therefore, Li Xuan said a long time ago that Zhang Baiyue and Qin Su are two completely different women.

Some men's preferences for women will change with age, and when they are young, they are carefree and naturally like women who do not let their eyebrows go

Son, let's be happy together. When you are older, the responsibilities on your shoulders are heavier, you have more thoughts, you are uncomfortable, and your steps are difficult, and you will appreciate that kind of gentle and virtuous woman even more. Of course, more men still want to have them all, three wives and four concubines, that's another matter.

......

Jianxiu Mountain goes north for 800 miles, passes through the land of two prefectures and three counties, there is a big mountain called Zixian Mountain, located in Shi'an County, Longmen Prefecture, only more than 200 miles away from Longmen Mansion, here is the "Tianle Taoyuan" of Tianle Sect. Because of the "paradise", Shi'an County, which was originally somewhat barren, has become more and more prosperous over the years.

Two travelers from afar entered the county seat of Shi'an County, a man and a woman, the man was old, with gray hair, looking about the age of a sixtieth year, and the woman was a young woman about thirty years old, and the two stood together, like a father and daughter.

However, in fact, the age difference between the two is not much, and even the age of the woman is longer. It was at Li Xuandu's request that the man and woman rushed to Zhang Haishi and Li Feiyan in Shi'an County within one day. In fact, with Zhang Haishi's realm cultivation, even if he didn't deliberately stay in his face, he wouldn't be so old, but Zhang Haishi did the opposite, making him look not far from Li Daoxu, Li Daoshi and others.

Zhang Haishi was dressed in a white-washed robe, with a lotus leaf scarf on his head, and a bamboo cane in his hand, like a fortune teller who traveled from south to north. The appearance of the bamboo cane is not the slightest abnormal, it is just an ordinary bamboo cane, and it has even begun to wither yellow, and there is no verdant color, no one would think that there is a sharp sword hidden in it. Li Feiyan did not wear the wide black robe, but changed into a neat black suit, carrying a long strip-shaped burden in his hand, which looked like a blade and a hat on his head, which was less than the gauze tent hanging from the brim of the hat. Because there are many people in Zhongzhou now, all kinds of strange costumes abound, and the outfit of Li Feiyan, an ordinary Jianghu person, is even more inconspicuous.

Li Feiyan looked at Shi'an County and chuckled: "I remember that I came here thirty years ago, when Tianle Sect had not yet moved here, and this was an ordinary county town, and it was dilapidated everywhere. Now it's a big change, who would have thought that it was just because of a courtyard. ”

Zhang Haishi said: "That is the first courtyard in the world, and it is a golden mountain. Bing Yan once had the idea of being here, but he didn't expect it to end up in the hands of the Purple Mansion. ”

Li Feiyan said: "Qingwei Sect, like Tianle Sect, will eventually return to the hands of the Purple Mansion. ”

Zhang Haishi did not object to this statement, "It's just that on that day, just one Qingwei Sect is nothing, since you want to take it, why not take the entire Daomen?"

Li Feiyan said: "It's too early, I don't know if I can wait until that day." ”

Zhang Haishi shook his head and said, "Actually, it's not early, you can see it in ten years at most?"

Li Feiyan was taken aback, "Senior Brother will soar in ten years?"

Even if the relationship between her sister is aside, Li Feiyan and Li Daoxu are also from the same school, and there is nothing wrong with calling her senior brother, and even if she calls Li Daoshi a senior brother, it is nothing

What's the problem, it's just that Li Feiyan treats him differently, and he can still call Li Daoxu a senior brother, and when he comes to Li Daoshi, he will call him by his name.

"In less than a hundred years, Master will not ascend. Zhang Haishi still shook his head, "The ten-year period is the time for Confucianism and Taoism to compete, and at that time, there should be a saying about who wins and who loses, if the Daomen wins, then the position of the Purple Mansion in the entire Daomen will be completely stable, and no one can compete with him for the position of the prince, if you can't do it today, you will do it tomorrow." ”

Li Feiyan asked, "What if the Daomen is defeated?"

"Defeated?" Zhang Haishi sneered, "If he is defeated, Zifu, as the person who promotes the unification of the Daomen and competes for the world with the Confucian Sect, how can the Confucian Sect let him go, if he doesn't want to die, he can only live in seclusion, just like the Song Zheng back then." ”

Li Feiyan sighed.

......

The day after Pei Yu returned to the Vientiane Academy, he saw Wen Ren, the great sacrificial wine, and after replying according to Li Xuandu's instructions, Wen Ren was quite satisfied with him, changed his attitude, and verbally encouraged him. As for the jealousy between the juniors, it was naturally not worth worrying about the big sacrificial wine, and he was now more concerned about what the hermits were going to do, and he was eager to ask them for an explanation.

Pei Yu put "Taiping Guangji" in his residence for the time being, and spent the whole morning sitting at the desk, completing the homework left to him by the school palace sacrificial wine. In the afternoon, he walked to the piano house again—there was a lesson from the Su family this afternoon.

On the way to the piano house, Pei Yu silently calculated in his heart that Liu Jinyi had sent him a message the day before yesterday that he had already contacted the Confucian people, but he was still in the contact stage, and it would take a while to really enter the Confucian sect. During this time, it was not good for him to go to the inn again, nor to visit Li Xuandu too often, so he decided to use this time to participate in various gatherings of young students in the Confucian sect to establish prestige and win the hearts of the people, and it was best to be able to effectively control some of the young students and become their leaders. In this way, not only can he better detect the movements of Confucianism, but also improve his status in Confucianism and cover his identity.

If it weren't for Li Xuandu's strict order that he should not privately develop Confucian scholars to join the Taiping Inn, he really wanted to try his skills.

When Pei Yu came to the piano house, it was already a little late, but the name of the Pei family's son was still useful, he was not in vain during this time, there was already a place left for him, he calmly walked to that position and sat cross-legged, and at the same time nodded to the students around him, most of the students were older than Pei Yu, and they returned the courtesy, only feeling honored, and now Pei Yu seems to be a man of the year among the young students in the school, and the so-called young talent is talking about him.

However, Pei Yu still has some regrets, now he still needs someone to help him occupy a seat, when as long as he arrives, someone will take the initiative to give him a seat, that is to have prestige.

Su Lianrong, who was sitting in the center, didn't look at Pei Yu, but just continued to lecture.

Pei Yu didn't care, he was different from some drunkards' classmates who didn't want to drink, he liked it seriously, and he listened to the lectures seriously.
