There are rumors that beside the overpass of Longxugou, which is used to suppress the water veins in the capital, there is a small restaurant with a long reputation, called Jiujiu Pavilion, where there is an endless stream of dignitaries.
The proprietress is a widow who still has charm, but there has never been any rumors in these years. No matter how the grandsons of the family and the children of Gaoliang clashed in the Jiujiu Pavilion in order to grab a table, no matter how dark the two sides fought, it seemed that the Jiujiu Pavilion, which had never been heard of being guarded by a big man, would always be there the next day. Open as usual. If you go late, as long as the small restaurant is closing time, even if you are the grandson of Shangshu's son and the general, you will close the door to thank guests. The more the Jiujiu restaurant is like this, the more it will satisfy the old gourmets in the capital. Although it is very possible that a big man like the servant may be slapped by the bold shop assistants when he goes to the restaurant, everyone will never tire of it.
The two masters of the Song family, Tantan Weng Huanwen, Imperial Superintendent Yao Baifeng, almost all the central ministers who have served in six books except Gu Jiantang, whose hands and feet can't be counted, all come here to eat here without exception.
This year there is another big person, Qi Yanglong. It is said that before Master Zhongshuling officially became a minister of Liyang, the first thing he did when he entered Beijing was not to meet the emperor, but to go straight to the Jiujiu Pavilion and get drunk Drunk, what is even more exaggerated is that such a well-deserved literati leader was almost kicked out of the Jiujiu Hall by the proprietress.
Today, the business of Jiujiu Pavilion is still destined to be booming. The main entrance has not yet opened, and the luxury cars and tall horses outside have already made the street by the river very crowded, and many diners are patiently queuing up .
A small, lame old man came to the entrance of the backyard of the Jiujiu Pavilion. Compared with the hustle and bustle of the main entrance, this narrow alley, which is unknown to everyone, is extremely deserted. Perhaps it is because of the lack of people. A little green moss grew, and the sunlight was blocked by the high wall, making it look a bit gloomy. The lame old man didn't rush to knock on the door, but stared at a young man squatting on the steps and yawning, who also opened his mouth and stared at the lame old man with wide eyes.
In fact, they all "know" each other. The old man who usually only puts his precious eyes on the princes and ministers, remembers this rascal because the young ruffian appeared on the street outside the Xiamawei Posthouse yesterday, and followed him. The young vassal king had a "peak battle". After returning to Zhaogou that day, the lame old man quickly found out the young man's details. It was indeed a guide issued by the Liaodong Jinzhou government. He knew exactly what inn he stayed in and what food he ate, and even the details of the room price bargaining between this guy named Wu Laifu and the innkeeper were entered in Zhao Gou's file. Originally, the old man had roughly confirmed that the so-called "Jinzhou's No. 1 Young Hero" and "Liaodong's No. 2 Swordsman" were not some shady spy, but just a street rascal who didn't know the heights of the world and accidentally got involved in the maelstrom of the capital. Wu Laifu's appearance here and now made Zhao Gou, who had always believed that there were no accidents in the world and no accidents happened, feel murderous in his heart.
Wu Laifu, who put the iron knife on his knee, yelled abruptly: "Old man, I know you! Although you didn't make a move from the beginning to the end yesterday, I know that you are actually an expert like me!"
Wu Laifu smiled, thinking about how to kill this guy calmly.
The Jiujiu Pavilion is Zhao Gou's forbidden area. Liyang spies, no matter how high or low they are, are not allowed to approach.
This is a rigid rule established by Yuan Benxi.
Although Mr. Yuan is dead, the lame old man is still unwilling to disturb the woman who lives in the city because of a trivial "trivial matter".
This time the lame old man himself broke Mr. Yuan's rules, and he had no choice but to do so. The new head Zhao Gou spoke up, so he had to come here to make people dislike him.
Even the King of Beiliang and Fushuifang only knew his lame old man surnamed Yao, looked at the young man holding the knife carefully, and asked with a smile: "Wu Shaoxia, why do you have the leisure to squat here and watch the sun?"
Wu Laifu's martial arts style is not popular, but he is not stupid at all, otherwise he would not be able to steal the limelight before Li Haoran, now Wu Laifu's reputation in the capital is not small. He went back and forth twice yesterday, and saw the whole battle from beginning to end. Among them, the aging of the middle-aged man and the death of the young man with the sword made him amazed. The old man, of course it's not something he Wu Laifu can wrestle with. So Wu Laifu was very nervous, his palms were covered with sweat, but he still kept his unbeatable smiling face and said: "Senior, you can't just look at the sun, right? I'm here to ask for a job in the Jiujiu Pavilion. From Liaodong to the capital, I have used up all my money, and I am not the kind of rivers and lakes who rely on force to break the law, but the most law-abiding citizen."
The lame old man smiled and said, "Looking for a job? The capital is so big, where can I find it?"
The young man's smiling face became more and more stiff, his eyeballs rolled sharply, he hesitated for a moment, and lowered his voice: "Senior, we are all open-minded people, so I might as well tell you straight, everyone in the capital knows that the water in Jiujiu Hall is very deep. Come to think of it, a woman who is Taoist can support such a restaurant, either she is a hidden peerless master, or the guy in the restaurant is a first-class martial arts master, or maybe a certain cook has retired for many years I come to the Jiujiu Hall to find a job, and secondly, to make money, I mainly hope to learn from the masters a unique skill that can dominate the martial arts world!"
The crippled old man stared at this whimsical young man, not knowing whether he should slap him to death, or give him a thumbs up to praise you for being so fucking wise.
The lame old man looked at the guy with "incredibly sincere eyes and innocent face", and couldn't help but joked, "If I remember correctly, Wu Shaoxia is a master who only lost to the King of Beiliang with one and a half moves. Is it enough to go up to a higher level in the martial arts?"
Wu Laifu smiled foolishly, "There are so many skills that you don't overwhelm yourself. There are dragons and crouching tigers hidden in the rivers and lakes. I will learn a few more skills to suppress the bottom of the box. It is not a bad thing after all. Look at the king of Beiliang, his fists, swords, and the last trick' please God ', there are endless means, compared with him, I am still a bit inferior after all."
The lame old man smiled and said: "In my opinion, Wu Shaoxia has some things, so he is much better than the King of Beiliang."
Wu Laifu asked softly: "Could it be thick-skinned?"
The lame old man gave this guy a thumbs up, "Wu Shaoxia, you are indeed a talented martial arts wizard! In the future, your achievements in martial arts must be limitless!"
The young man scratched his head and accepted the "compliment".
The lame old man lost his murderous intentions for some reason, ignored the Liaodong young man, walked up the steps, and knocked lightly on the door.
Backyard didn't respond.
The lame old man just knocked down without haste.
The old man is not in a hurry. Wu Laifu couldn't wait any longer from his curiosity, speculation, and anticipation at the beginning to yawning, rolling his eyes, and earwax at the end. Wu Laifu stood up, put on the iron knife, and then slapped him hard on On the wooden door with badly peeled paint, he shouted: "Madam, Madam! I am the Wu Laifu who was going to be your shop assistant yesterday. It's fine if you don't open the door for me, but there is a respected senior in the world who is eager to find you!" As for you, don’t delay the big event! Madam, really, I don’t know you, there is a senior who came to visit me, and I have been waiting here for a long time. At first, I was afraid that the senior would disturb your rest, so I stopped him for a long time without courtesy. , Mistress! You see, it’s all like this, if you don’t open the door again, whether it’s from the point of view of the morals of the world or the principle that the visitor is a guest, you can’t justify it, Mistress!”
The lame old man twitched the corners of his mouth and endured it.
Wu Laifu's shot of the wicket was earth-shattering.
When the door suddenly opened, Wu Laifu was inattentive and almost slapped the person who opened the door. Fortunately, the latter moved slightly to avoid it, but Wu Laifu fell into the door and fell to the ground.
That glimpse.
Let Wu Laifu sit on the ground in a daze.
That young woman is definitely not the proprietress, the proprietress is a lady in her mid-mature, quite feminine, but after all, Wu Laifu doesn't like this, he prefers a young woman of the same age, with a pretty face, big breasts, and a thin waist , the buttocks must be round, the legs must be long, the requirements are not too high, and it just fits his status as a young hero.
And the woman who opened the door was the most attractive woman Wu Laifu had ever seen in his life, and maybe even the most beautiful woman in his next life.
Wu Laifu sat on the ground and looked at the back of the man standing at the door. This young man who dared to play tricks on the King of Beiliang didn't even dare to talk to her.
The lame old man, who was the second enshrined in the Ministry of Punishment, looked at the woman who was named the first in Rouge, and hesitated to speak.
She was supposed to be one of Mr. Yuan's most outstanding masters, but the world is impermanent, and even Mr. Yuan, who has no plans to spare, fell short.
On that chessboard back then, there was a three-player game. Although Mr. Yuan had thought of a series of formulas, it was a pity that someone made an "unreasonable move" in the end.
In that confrontation, Mr. Yuan claimed afterwards that he and Huang Sanjia both lost, and losing to the same person was a great regret in this life!
Looking at the old man who personally escorted her to the capital, the woman said calmly, "Mr. Yao is here to urge me to go to the residence of the feudal prince of Liaodong?"
The lame old man sighed, shook his head and said, "No, I'm here to find shopkeeper Hong."
She frowned, shook her head and said, "Aunt Hong won't see you."
The old man also shook his head, and called him by name: "Chen Yu, you don't count on what you say about this matter."
Chen Yu.
After hearing this name, Wu Laifu was struck by lightning.
Rouge ranked first!
The mysterious woman with the surname of Nangong can only comment on the four characters "I don't lose to Chen Yu". You must know that the third person in Rouge's comment is the princess of Xichu in the past who entered the city with a sword like a fairy, and the empress of Xichu now. mud!
Chen Yu remained silent.
Rao is an old man who has long been indifferent to beauty, no matter how many times he has seen her, he still has to feel sincerely about her beauty. No wonder even Mr. Yuan praised "the troubled times are the troubles, the queen of the prosperous times."
Wu Laifu suddenly kicked on the back, and fell again with a dusty face.
A woman stood beside Wu Laifu, did not approach the gate of the courtyard, looked at the lame old man who had not crossed the threshold, and said coldly: "There are no bones in Jiujiu Hall for you to hold!"
The lame old man who was scolded as a dog had no expression on his face, and flicked his fingers lightly. Wu Laifu's head seemed to be hit hard, and he swayed backwards, and fell to the ground, not knowing whether he was alive or dead.
Then the old man said softly: "Shopkeeper Hong, this time I invite you out of the Jiujiu Pavilion, it is the empress's intention."
The proprietress didn't speak.
Chen Yu lowered his eyes.
The lame old man quietly waited for the next sentence.
The proprietress finally spoke, with a sarcasm: "Why, do you want me to stop at the gate of the palace? Or just guard outside the hall? If I knew this before, why bother?! Now I finally know how to be afraid?"
The old man's eyelids trembled, and he said: "The empress's order is... let shopkeeper Hong go to Qin Tianjian."
After saying this, the old man who never dragged his feet no matter what he said or killed, for the first time, he emphasized his tone and repeated the last three words, "Qin Tianjian!"
The proprietress, who had been calm before, suddenly became furious, "Get lost!"
She pointed at the lame old man, and said angrily: "Yao! You go back to the palace and tell that shameless woman! My friendship with her, Zhao Zhi, is not so good!"
The old man seemed to have expected the woman's attitude, and continued to say with a straight face: "The Empress asked me to send two words to shopkeeper Hong, one is that if shopkeeper Hong is willing to go to Qin Tianjian, then Chen Yu can not go to Liao Wangfu to be a princess .”
The woman was very angry and laughed back: "Zhao Zhi, Zhao Zhi, the whole Liyang knows that you prefer Zhao Zhuan, far more than Zhao Wu! Not only did you force the eldest son to give up the dragon chair to his younger brother, but now even the eldest son I should have gotten this pitiful compensation, and I've saved myself!"
Chen Yu turned a deaf ear, as if he was an outsider.
His Royal Highness the Prince of Beiliang, the first emperor Zhao Dun, the eldest prince Zhao Wu, and the fourth prince Zhao Zhuan.
Back then, the run-down family, one of the top ten powerful families in the Spring and Autumn Period, wanted her to enter the capital, first to be an imperial concubine, and then to fight for the position of empress.
Her mentor, Huang Sanjia, wanted her to marry the young man who went out to travel around the world.
Later, Mr. Yuan, who spoke vaguely, asked her to approach the fourth prince who had not married Yan Dongwu at that time.
Later, the woman who became the empress dowager asked her to marry the eldest son of the dragon robe, Liao Wang Zhao Wu, who had no hope in this life.
No one ever asked her who she wanted to marry.
The grandfather who was once known for his character in the Central Plains Wenlin, just told her before he died that the family was prosperous and needed her.
The teacher who concealed her identity and whom she respected so much just smiled and said, there is a book, and it should be written like this.
The half-inch tongue Yuan Benxi just dipped his finger in the wine and wrote six words on the table in front of her: Your queen, I will live.
In the end, she was summoned into the palace, looked at the woman from a distance, only saw that the woman nodded, and let herself out of the palace.
Not once did she resist.
Chen Yu has never longed for the Jianghu, because she knows that the men in the Jianghu seem to be beautiful, but in fact, everyone can't help themselves.
She never yearned for the imperial palace, because she knew that every woman there was a bird in a cage.
But Chen Yu knew what he didn't want, but he never knew what he wanted.
Therefore, Chen Yu did not feel any sorrow and no self-pity when he let nature take its course, like duckweed flowing with the water.
When Chen Yu heard that Aunt Hong, who taught him how to cut paper, said a word to the lame old man again, Chen Yu still didn't feel sad at all. Does it matter whether he goes to Liaodong or becomes a princess
The old man looked at this woman who had been widowed for many years, and he was not angry. A legendary woman who could make both the late emperor and Mr. Yuan look at him differently, even if he punched himself in the head, the old man would not care about anything.
The old man said calmly: "Master Hong, the empress's second sentence means that Xie Guanying is already in the Qin Tianjian, and the king of Shu, Chen Zhibao, may also be there."
The woman calmed down instantly, her lips turned white.
She closed her eyes in pain, and whispered: "Zhao Zhi, you have always been like this. You used to ignore everything for your own man, but now for your son..."
The old man glanced at the sky and reminded: "If you don't go, it will be too late."
She slowly opened her eyes and asked, "Is the carriage ready?"
The old man nodded.
The woman walked towards the door, and when she passed by Chen Yu, she suddenly held her hand and said softly, "Go with Aunt Hong. It would be fine if we died there."
Chen Yu thought about it and smiled.
…
Qin Tianjian is not well-known in the market, but it is the most important place in the capital of Liyang. Many Huang Zigongs from three provinces and six departments have never had the opportunity to set foot in it in their lifetime, so can the officials go to the Qin Tianjian library to borrow a book or two? , has virtually become a benchmark for measuring the weight of Beijing officials.
The last thing Lu Baijie did before he resigned as Minister of the Ministry of War was to secretly transfer 800 elite soldiers from the Forbidden Army in the Inner City to guard the Qin Tianjian.
And just two days ago, the Qin Tianjian, which was already heavily guarded, quietly added more than 600 elite soldiers overnight.
Two generals wearing armor instead of official robes of military officials, one in his sixties and the other in his prime, both stood with their swords on their hands, standing at the gate of Qintianjian as two "door gods".
The faces of the two men, who were one generation apart, looked exactly alike, like a pair of father and son.
In fact, this is exactly the case. The old general is Li Shouguo, the Shesheng school lieutenant stationed in the northern part of Gyeonggi. Lieutenant Shesheng, who was promoted to one of the four major lieutenants in Gyeonggi, was only rumored to be a joke in the official circles of the capital and the Gyeonggi Army. If it was in troubled times, with his laziness ability, let alone being the most powerful captain in Liyang, whether he could be a captain would be a mystery. All these years, he relied on his flattering skills. He knows how to be an official in war, especially when he was lucky enough to climb the high branch of Ma Lulang, the general who conquered the North, so he got such a hot and coveted official position.
It's just that this kind of tone of discussion gradually dissipated as Li Shouguo's eldest son, Li Chang'an, stood out in the Gyeonggi Army last year. The backbone general is an extremely strong general from the fourth rank. Its meaning is equivalent to the position of a county guard in a place where a doctor in the six departments of the civil servants is serving. . Strange to say, Li Changan, who had never been to the border between the two Liao and Liao Dynasties, and had no combat achievements, was considered unknown before, but compared to the younger Yin Changgeng and Han Xingyan, he was obviously not enough to look at, but This person just happened to be one of His Majesty's first batch of generals who were promoted, which made the officials of the capital feel that they were in a fog. The good thing is that Li Changan's younger brother, Li Changliang, just went to Beiliang Youzhou for a trip to the mountains and rivers with Wang Yuanran and other dudes. A captain of Yan Jingqi.
Three fathers and sons, one Captain Shesheng, one General General, and Captain Duoyan, this made the Li family, whose ancestral grave was full of smoke, suddenly have a "little Gu family" in the ruling and opposition parties.
Although the father and son jointly guarded the gate of the Qin Tianjian, Li Shouguo and Li Changan never looked sideways, without any eye contact.
Compared to Li Changan's composure, Li Shouguo's expression was calm, but his heart was beating all the time. Some time ago, the eldest son, Li Changan, was ordered to enter the palace to face the saint one day, and was soon transferred away from the inner city, leading eight hundred imperial guards from the capital to garrison the Qin Tianjian located between the palace and the imperial city. He rushed to Beijing, and the order to go to Beijing was not even a document from the Ministry of War, which is common sense, but the Tiger Talisman of the General Who Conquered Peking as the benefactor of the Li family! You must know that the general Ma Lulang is an old man who is nearly eighty years old. He has been lying in bed for many years. Once demoted and died, even though Ma Lulang hadn't participated in the celebrations and court meetings for nearly ten years, neither the late emperor nor today's emperor has ever lacked the rewards that should be given to the Ma family. With a sigh of relief, as long as the old man doesn't die completely, then the Ma's house has a better location than Yan Guogong's Huaiyang Hou's mansion, and it is still the Ma's house that coughs a few times in the capital and has huge movements in the temple.
Li Shouguo originally couldn't figure out why a Qin Tianjian who had nothing to do with officialdom needed to mobilize so many troops. The 600 forbidden troops plus the 800 most elite soldiers of the Gyeonggi North Army under his command, 1,400 people, were they guarding against whom? ? Who else deserves this grand treatment
Li Shouguo finally came to his senses when he heard that the King of Beiliang had brought 800 Northwest Cavalry with him before he entered the capital, and that the Gyeonggi West Army led by Captain Hu Qi, Chi Changgong, had been reduced to escort. Because he is the real military general of Captain Shesheng, and because Li Shouguo saved the life of the old general's only son in the East Vietnam War, he became a guest of Ma Lulang, the general who followed the Peking University, and vaguely heard it in the Ma's mansion in the early years. There is an anecdote, which seems to say that there was a treacherous conspiracy in Tai'an City, targeting Xu Laizi, who had not been crowned king at that time, and Zhengnan Huaiyu, the now deceased Qintian Supervisor, played the A not-so-glamorous role. General Ma Lulang's only son, General Andong Ma Zhongxian, who held the military power of the entire Gyeonggi Eastern Army at this time, vaguely talked about this matter after drunk, with a proud and self-satisfied look on his face. Li Shouguo knows that a captain of Shesheng is far from enough to touch the inside story of that conspiracy. Perhaps only when his eldest son Li Changan achieves the first place in the four campaigns and four towns, can he hope to know about the secret hidden in layers of curtains and accumulated in the thick dust. horrifying truth.
The general of the four expeditions, Ma Lulang lingered on the sickbed for many years, and the family's favor continued unabated. Zhao Kai ignored the disputes for many years, and made a comeback at the time of crisis, and shared the power with Nanzheng coach Lu Shengxiang.
Yang Shenxing left the capital for Jizhou very early. He seemed to be at ease, but in fact he was far away from the center of the dynasty, which affected Yang Huchen's climbing speed. If Yang Huchen hadn't lost an arm on the battlefield of Guangling Road, the price would have been too great to make the court feel bad. Otherwise, not to mention the deputy general of Jizhou, he would have been silent for a while, and when Yang Shenxing died of old age, the Yang family would quickly become a divorcee. Yang's second- and third-rate families.
Yan Zhenchun, the famous commander of the cavalry army with outstanding military exploits, and a military general who was truly honored by the Zhao family, unexpectedly the whole army died in battle on the border of Guangling Road.
The four great generals of the dynasty who had the same rank and were second only to the great general Gu Jiantang ended up with four almost completely different fates.
After Li Shouguo figured out the hidden ins and outs, he was both horrified and chilled.
Ma Lulang, the boss of Liyang's old military department, was the first veteran noble in the capital to show strong hostility to the old Liang king Xu Xiao.
Zhao Wei was the general who firmly supported the battle of Xileibi back then, but at the end of the Spring and Autumn War, Zhao Wei, who had fought side by side with Xu Xiao, began to move closer to Gu Jiantang. He chose to assist Gu Jiantang in attacking Nantang. Later, in the grand feast of rewarding heroes in the capital, Zhao Wei and Xu Xiao turned against each other. In the battle between the first emperor and the old Jing'an king Zhao Heng before he ascended the throne, Zhao Kai was one of the first emperor's pawns.
Yang Shenxing has a shallow relationship with Xu Xiao, almost no personal relationship at all.
Yan Zhenchun, the general who highly respected Xu Xiao when Xu Xiao left the capital, personally saw Xu Xiao off from the city.
Li Shouguo didn't know how the respected old general was feeling when he led the army for the last time in his life.
The eldest son Li Changan, who has always been taciturn and cautious, did not allow his father to hold a banquet after he was promoted to the backbone general without warning, but the father and son had a secret conversation that must never be known. In that conversation, it was Li Changan, the son, who was teaching Li Shouguo, the father, how to be an official. What he was talking about was not the superficial way of welcoming and sending off, but the art of possessing a dragon, which was similar to how to appreciate the Sacred Heart. It wasn't until that time that Li Shouguo knew that his son had long been the emperor's confidant. Unlike the other generals who were secretly designated by the late emperor as ministers supporting the dragon, Li Chang'an was lucky enough to rely on his own chance. Gained the trust of the fourth prince at that time. Li Chang'an told him straightforwardly that his Majesty had given some veiled hints that he would use his father, Li Shou, and Guo Zhishi as his starting point, and Li Chang'an would be promoted to the next Anbei General at the expense of his father Li Shou Guo Zhishi in three years' time, and in three years' time, he would go to Liaodong Or Guangling, or that place in the northwest, whether he can become a feudal official in iron armor depends on Li Changan's own ability.
At this moment, Li Shouguo sighed softly with mixed feelings.
From him to his two sons, the Li family is seeking wealth and wealth.
When Li Shouguo saw the carriage in the distance, he gasped for breath.
Even if I die here today, as long as my son Li Changan survives.
The Li family really has the hope of becoming the second Xu family, not some little Gu family!
…
Behind the gate with the plaque of "Tongwei Jiajing" hung, there is a Sheji altar in Qintianjian, which is paved with five-color soil from Guangling Road.
Green in the east, red in the south, white in the west, black in the north, and yellow in the middle.
A middle-aged Confucian scholar squatted in front of the red tribute soil in the south, and beside him stood a young man with tightly pursed lips, wearing the official uniform of the Qintian Supervisor.
Wu Lingsu, a Taoist priest from Mount Qingcheng, who has the same status as the contemporary celestial master of Mount Longhu and became the second prime minister in feather clothes in this dynasty, is the leader of Taoism in the north. At this time, it is not easy to squat down with the Confucian scholars, but the tall and tall Immortal Wu If he stood upright, it would be too disrespectful to the young supervisor who was nicknamed the little bookcase, so he had to bend his waist as much as possible.
Together with his son Wu Shizhen, Wu Lingsu, who is also known as the big and small real person in Tai'an City, has a very fairy style and excellent appearance. In the past two years, he has been in the capital. But at this time, Dazheng Wu, who was bent over, was trembling. The sweat on his back that drenched his Taoist robe, he didn't know whether it was the hot sweat from the sun, or the cold sweat from fright.
An old man in white approached, and Wu Lingsu, who had the highest official position on the stage, was the first to speak out in a hurry, and said respectfully to the old man with great profound knowledge: "Vice Supervisor, you are being polite."
Qin Tianjian, who is responsible for deriving the astrology and promulgating the calendar for the imperial court, is really a big figure who is relied on by the Liyang Zhao family. Except for the two supervisors and deputy supervisors, it is not the five officials in spring, summer, mid-autumn and winter. Not to mention, but those immortal masters who don't wear official robes but only white clothes, let alone this one with the title of Deputy Superintendent? In front of him was an old man in white clothes who trained Wu Lingsu several times before. He looked like a middle-aged man, and Wu Lingsu saw him again overnight.
The Vice-Master Qin Tianjian, who broke through the bottleneck at the Xiamawei posthouse yesterday and successfully entered the realm of celestial phenomenon, looked worried, and whispered to the man who hadn't got up: "Mr. Xie..."
The Confucian scholar spread his palms flat on the soil, and said with a smile, "I know that Lord Yansheng has left the capital, don't worry, I will personally preside over the operation of that large formation."
The master Qi practitioner was about to say something, Xie Guanying got up and clapped his hands, turned around and said: "In addition to the 1,600 members of the Li family and his son, there will be 300 Imperial Forest Army, and they are already on their way."
The grand master of Qi practitioners was still hesitant to speak, Xie Guanying glanced at the towering towering building in the capital, with a half-smile, "Why, if I have to say that His Royal Highness the King of Shu is here, you can really feel at ease when Jin Jin is here." 'Reassuring'?"
The Deputy Superintendent heaved a sigh of relief, and then mocked himself bitterly: "Mr. Xie, I have given up my way of life and refused to go. I am no different from a pure martial artist like Xuanyuan Dapan, so naturally I cannot know that His Royal Highness the King of Shu has arrived. "
Xie Guanying's tone was playful, "Qi Xianxia first went to Wudang Mountain to meet Hong Xixiang, and then practiced with Mao. He also saw Li Yufu, walked hundreds of miles along the Guangling River, and arrived at Tai'an City. Window paper, not to mention proving Dao and ascending, and not even doing land gods. Jin Xin'an, what do you think?"
Jin Xin'an hadn't been called out by name in person for decades, so he was in a daze for a while.
Xie Guanying looked up at the cloudless sky, and said softly: "Lu Zu said, don't ask if there are any gods in the world, how many ascended people in ancient and modern times. He also said that the fire dragon will subdue the tiger, and the gods on the road will be real."
Wu Lingsu chewed it carefully, and only felt that Xuan Miao was Xuan Miao, but it was useless to him, a half-hearted cultivator. But out of the corner of his eye, he saw Deputy Superintendent Jin lost in thought, his expression changing.
Xie Guanying slowly walked towards the Tongtian Terrace, the King of Shu who had been assisted wholeheartedly by him did unexpected things twice in a row recently, one was to go north to Beijing, and the other was to enter the Qin Tianjian.
Xie Guanying kept walking, and said a word to Jin Xin'an, "If you still have the idea of ascension, remember to kill Li Yufu as soon as possible." The juvenile prisoner who is very close to the emperor and queen is following Xie Guanying, and there is no imminent battle He smiled and said, "Mr. Xie, there is a chess player named Fan Changhou who is better at chess than you."
Xie Guanying smiled and said: "What's so great about being better than me? In chess, I can't even compare with Li Yishan, who is known to be a bad chess player. It's just that I know my strengths and weaknesses, and I never seek to humiliate myself. Nalan You Ci is different. I remember that back then, I watched him lose Li Yishan sixteen times in a row, and he still refused to admit defeat. I have seen many people who are serious about winning and losing. He is really the only one who is so serious. Oh no, you Grandpa Zheng, the old supervisor, is also one of them, he still thinks that you can win a round with Huanglongshi, right?"
The young man sighed, and said helplessly: "Yes. Actually, I don't like playing chess very much. Grandpa Jianzheng wants me to learn how to play chess. There is nothing I can do about it."
Xie Guanying tapped the young man's head with his fingers, "How many people want to die but can't get what they want, you child despise it."
The young man grinned, and suddenly lowered his voice, "Mr. Xie, are you undermining His Majesty the Emperor?"
Xie Guanying was not surprised at all, he walked up the stairs calmly, "Don't tell him."
The boy blinked, "Why?"
Xie Guanying climbed up step by step, and said with a soft smile: "I agree, I will tell you why your Grandpa Jianzheng always loses to Huanglongshi, why he can't be the top chess player in the Spring and Autumn Thirteen."
The boy thought for a while, "It's a deal."
"I went to help Jin Xin'an." The boy turned around and ran down the stairs.
Xie Guanying came behind Chen Zhibao who was standing near the "Day of Heaven" on the Tongtian Terrace, and asked, "Are you still unwilling to take this step?"
Chen Zhibao didn't respond.
Xie Guanying said slowly: "Northern and southern factions of qi trainers, Tantai Pingping didn't even know that she had broken her Dao heart, and Jin Xin'an was even worse. Pulling out the seedlings to help them grow, I tossed myself away. And the old supervisor Zhengnan Huaiyu persuaded the late emperor not to adopt the new calendar written by Li Dangxin. In this way, the old way of heaven gradually collapsed, and you and I benefited the most from it People, even if Cao Changqing doesn't die and you don't let your strength increase, you can still become the only one who has been in the Three Saints after Lu Zu for thousands of years. Li Chungang, Xu Fengnian when he just defeated Wang Xianzhi, and Cao Changqing when he decided to die later, are not your opponents."
Chen Zhibao said: "There is also Deng Tai'a who really held a sword, Xu Yanbing's dying shot, and you who are willing to give up being the emperor of the world for a thousand years, Xie Guanying."
Xie Guanying shook his head and said: "You know I won't make a move for this little fame, the price is too high."
Xie Guanying suddenly said: "The reason why you don't want to take this step is because you don't want Xu Fengnian's glory?"
Chen Zhibao remained silent.
Xie Guanying smiled and shook his head, "Since that's the case, what are you doing in the capital? It's fun to watch Xu Fengnian show off his might?"
Chen Zhibao remained silent.
Xie Guanying sighed softly, "It's contradictory."
After a long time, Chen Zhibao who looked into the distance said for no reason, "We seem to have missed someone."
Xie Guanying said calmly: "No matter how much effort you put in, a disobedient chess piece will die as soon as it dies."

Outside the Qin Tianjian, Li Shou Guo, the lieutenant of the Shesheng School, was facing the enemy. Two carriages from the left almost galloped towards them, and then stopped suddenly not far from the main gate.

Besides the King of Beiliang, who else would dare to wade into this muddy water
Could it be that there are reinforcements surnamed Xu
Li Shouguo reached out his hand to signal Li Changan not to leave the gate, and walked towards the two carriages alone, but the very nervous captain froze on the spot.
From two carriages, two elegantly dressed women got off.
But after seeing one of them clearly, Li Shouguo immediately knelt down on one knee, clasped his fists and said in a low voice, "The last general, Li Shouguo, sees the Queen Mother!"
After Zhao Zhuan ascended the throne, Zhao Zhi, who has changed from a queen of a country to a queen mother of this dynasty, nodded slightly, "Get up, guard the gate, and no one is allowed to enter."
Li Shouguo hurriedly got up and returned to the main gate of Qintianjian. At this moment, Li Shouguo, who was dripping with sweat, saw the eldest son Li Changan with a relieved expression. , I almost thought you were really not afraid at all!
Two women of similar age but with very different attitudes stood still, five or six steps apart, looking side by side at the other end of the street.
Queen Mother Zhao Zhi said in a hoarse voice, "Even if you die today, stop him, otherwise he will die!"
The proprietress of the Jiujiu Pavilion smiled and said: "I lied to his mother back then, this time, is it still a lie?"
Zhao Zhi suddenly turned his head to look at this
