Chapter 57: The Tang Family
Hearing Li Xuandu's exclamation, the palace official was a little surprised, "I thought your ambition was to be the same in the world, but I didn't expect it to be so simple." β
"Is it simple?" Li Xuandu first asked rhetorically, and then asked himself, "It's not simple, to end the troubled times, to put it bluntly, there is only one voice left, in other words, to eliminate other voices, Great Wei, Great Zhou, Liaodong, choose two of the three, make it die, how easy is it?"
The palace official said: "But compared with the world where everyone is public, it is undoubtedly much simpler. β
Li Xuandu said: "So I never do a good job of lofty ambitions, since the sage of Confucianism, to establish the great harmony of the world, to open the peace of the world, but have you ever done it? I am afraid that Confucianism will die, and I can't do it." Since you can't do it, why bother. Taking a step back, how can I do what Confucianism has not done for thousands of years. A generation has a generation's responsibility, and I can only do my best to do what I have to do. β
The palace official asked, "What else does the Purple Mansion want to know?"
Li Xuandu sighed: "After all, you are a person from the Daoless Sect, and I don't want to make you too embarrassed." If you can tell me some, that's enough. β
The palace official smiled: "A glimpse of the whole leopard?"
Li Xuandu said: "You can also say that, after all, the people take food as the sky, and no matter what the national policy, food cannot be bypassed." β
While the two were talking, they suddenly heard a deep voice coming from the rain and mist: "Is the Right Venerable here?
Under the Holy Monarch, there are two Venerables, four kings, ten elders, and twelve hall masters, of which two Venerables are divided into left and right, the four kings are named after the stars, the ten elders correspond to the ten heavenly stems, and the twelve hall masters correspond to the twelve earthly branches.
The palace official frowned suddenly, and secretly said that he was disappointed, and he didn't want to deal with this person, so he was silent.
It's just that the person who came shouted again, but the palace official still didn't respond. Then I heard the sound of treading water on the lake, and it was obvious that someone was approaching the boat. At the same time, the man's voice sounded again, but with a bit of urgency, "Right Venerable, Palace Girl, are you there?"
Before he could finish speaking, the man could already see through the heavy rain that there were two people standing on the bow of the boat, one of whom was a palace official, and the other seemed to be a man. Seeing this scene, his first reaction was not that the palace official was entertaining guests, but that the palace official was being held hostage, and he couldn't help but be furious, and his feet stepped on the lake, and the soles of his shoes were not immersed in the water, but the water surface was pressed out of a bowl-shaped depression the size of a water tank, showing a very good light body kung fu, and then his whole person took advantage of the power of this step, and his body rose to the sky, jumping towards the bow of the boat.
When they got closer, the people who came had already seen Li Xuandu's face clearly, and sure enough, they had never seen it, and shouted: "What a bad thief, you dare to go to Xijing City to spread wilderness, and accept your life!"
Although all this happened in a very short time, the palace official still had time to stop it, but she chose to remain silent out of a very subtle and unspeakable mind.
Then this person slapped Li Xuandu, Li Xuandu didn't even make a parry, just stood and took his palm, his body did not move, the boat under his feet did not shake, and even his clothes did not change at all.
The person who came was shocked, his palm had already used all his strength, even if it was the aftermath of the palm power, it could shake the boat to pieces, but at this time, the boat was not damaged at all, which meant that the person in front of him had endured
The full power of your own palm. Generally speaking, in the battle of the same realm, except for those who specialize in cultivating the physique, ordinary people do not dare to take the opponent's full force, the person in front of him dares to do so, and after taking the palm, he is still half of the person, which shows that the realm of the person in front of him is far better than him.
The person who came thought about it a few times, gritted his teeth, and was about to hit the second palm, but suddenly found that he couldn't move, and then a huge force came from his palm, which shook him backwards again and again, and finally sat on the ground.
At this moment, the palace official finally spoke: "Master Fan, don't be rude. β
The person who came had just gotten up and was trying to fight hard, when he heard the palace official's words, he couldn't help but be surprised, "Palace girl, you haven't been held hostage by such evil fangs?"
"Presumptuous!" the palace official's face sank, "What a vicious fang, this is Mr. Qingping, if he really wants to be unfavorable to me, can you save me?"
The person was stunned, "Mr. Qingping? Which Mr. Qingping? Could it be that Mr. Qingping!?"
The palace official was laughed at by his naΓ―ve attitude: "Is there a second Mr. Qingping in this world?"
The person who came finally understood, "It turned out to be Mr. Qingping, the villain Fan Yan has eyes and does not know Mount Tai, and he is offended, please don't be surprised." β
Li Xuandu looked at this person and said, "I don't have a self-registration number, and the master of the Fan Hall is also the protector of the master, and those who don't know are not to blame." β
Fan Yan saluted respectfully to the palace officials again, bowed his head and said, "Venerable, my subordinates have something important to report. β
The palace official folded the paper umbrella, held a folding fan, and asked, "What's the matter?"
Fan Xuan raised his head and glanced at Li Xuandu, a little hesitant.
Li Xuandu was about to avoid it, but the palace official had already said: "Mr. Qingping is not an outsider, and he also has a relationship with the Holy Monarch and the Emperor Fu Sect Master. β
When Fan Yan heard what the palace official said, he no longer had any doubts, and said: "That's really good, it's something happened in Shuzhou, and Tang Zhou, the Tiangong general of the Qingyang Sect, wants to take advantage of the Holy Monarch's absence in Xijing to openly stand on his own." β
When the palace official heard this, his face became solemn, "Tang Zhou wants to set up his own door? I'm afraid he wants to change to the new master." β
Fan Xu said: "That's right, now Venerable Zuo has gone to the Western ......" Speaking of this, he glanced at Li Xuandu again, and couldn't go on.
The palace official said indifferently: "Venerable Zuo and the Greedy Wolf King went to Kunlun in the Western Regions, not in Xijing, the Holy Monarch handed over Xijing to me, I naturally have to bear this burden, and this decision can only be made by me." β
Fan Xu looked at the palace official and waited for the order.
The palace official thought for a moment and asked, "Hall Master Fan, what do you think should be done?"
As the head of the twelve hall masters, Fan Xu is certainly a little reckless, but he is also a thick and fine character, at this time, he immediately became smart, and he said that he didn't need the capital, and he would have to take responsibility for the idea in the future, so he was silent and bowed his head deeply.
The palace official sighed and waved his hand, "Hall Master Fan, you can go." β
Fan Xu replied in a low voice, bowed and stepped back, until he reached the edge of the edge before turning and jumping into the lake, treading water.
The palace official looked at Li Xuandu and asked, "Zifu, what do you think of this matter?"
Li Xuan is not in the bureau, and he has nothing to do with the Wudao Sect, so he is naturally talking about Wuji, "It's obvious that the real master of Tang Zhou is back." β
The palace official said thoughtfully: "The Purple Mansion is talking about Song Zheng. β
Li Xuandu nodded and said, "That's right, the earth master is not enough for Tang Zhou to betray the Holy Monarch, but Song Zheng can." Strictly speaking, this is not called betrayal, because he is originally a person of Song Zheng. At the beginning, the Holy Monarch and Song Zheng were one and the same, and it didn't matter who Tang Zhou followed, but now that the Holy Monarch and Song Zheng broke up, then of course Tang Zhou had to follow the old master. β
The palace official said: "It seems that Song Zheng personally came forward, even if there is no friendship with the old master, the earth master and the holy monarch are not in the Central Plains, Tang Zhou also knows how to choose." β
Li Xuandu said: "To be honest, I really can't understand the current situation, it is clear that the Yuxu sword fighting is approaching, but Song Zheng is still playing with these methods, if he annoys Taiyun and gives birth to variables when the Yuxu fights the sword, what will Song Zheng and Confucianism do to win the Daomen?"
The palace official fanned lightly, looked calm, and said: "It's very simple, their focus is not on the Jade Void Fighting Sword, whether the Jade Void Fighting Sword wins or loses will not affect their overall situation." β
Li Xuandu thought about it carefully and said, "This possibility cannot be ruled out. If Song Zheng really didn't care about winning or losing the Jade Void Fighting Sword, then it meant that the Jade Void Fighting Sword was just a cover to conceal their bigger plans. However, this is only our speculation, there is no real evidence, and it is not very certain. β
The palace official turned his eyes around, remembered something, and said, "By the way, why did you come to Xijing for no reason? Is it to see me?"
Li Xuandu glanced at her and said, "I haven't had such a leisurely elegance, I am passing through Xijing this time, and I have something important to go to Shuzhou." β
The palace official unfolded the folding fan in his hand with a "snap", covered his mouth and smiled: "That's really a coincidence, the White Emperor City is also in Shuzhou, why don't we go to Shu together, how about it?"
Li Xuandu was silent.
The palace official asked again: "What is the purpose of the Purple Mansion entering Shu?"
Li Xuandu said: "It seems that this matter should not be discussed with you. β
The palace official said: "Regarding the matter of Tang Zhou, I didn't shy away from you at all, but you are hiding it from me, I'm afraid it's not appropriate, right?
Li Xuandu said: "Since you said so, then according to the rules of the Qingping Society, I will tell you the truth." I entered Shu this time because of the Tang family in Shu. I got the news that the Tang family seems to have a tendency to oppose water. β
The palace official closed the folding fan and patted his palm gently, "This is really a coincidence, the three brothers of the Tang family headed by Tang Zhou were originally from the side branch of the Tang family, and they were not valued because of the distinction between the concubines, Tang Zhou left the Tang family to explore the rivers and lakes, met Song Zheng, and joined the Wudao Sect." After the disappearance of Song Zheng, Tang Zhou left the Wudao Sect and set up his own door. After that, Xu Wugui began to intervene in the internal affairs of the Wudao Sect, supporting and co-opting the old Song government such as the Hundred Barbarian Kings and the Seven Killing Kings, and Tang Zhou was also the person Xu Wugui fancied. With the support of Xu Wugui, Tang Zhou founded the Qingyang Sect and pulled his second brother Tang Zhou and third brother Tang Han into it. Zifu, do you say that today's affairs of the Tang family will have anything to do with Tang Zhou? Don't say anything Tang Zhou has left the Tang family for many years, no one asks about the poor in the downtown area, and the rich have distant relatives in the mountains, with Tang Zhou's current status, repairing the relationship with the Tang family is just a gesture, not to mention that Tang Zhou has Song Zheng and the earth master behind him to support him. β
In fact, Li Xuandu also had such a guess, the Tang family and Tang Zhou had a change at the same time, and they were both the same "Tang" character, if there was no relationship between the two, it would be impossible.
Li Xuandu pondered for a moment, "In that case, we really want to enter Shu together." β
