An autumn rain came unexpectedly, a bit cold.

There is a small black boat in the crossing river. One person stands on the bow of the boat and a golden sword hanging on his waist. It is Li Yuanying, who is seriously injured and recovered. The other person stands on the dock of the ferry, dressed in a literati costume, and is about to return to Shi Zongxi, who is about to return to the Vientiane Academy of Zhongzhou.

Shi Zongxi sighed: "The Governor of Jiangnan was weak, but he was driven out of Jinling Mansion by many Jiangnan tyrants. He was as in a hurry as a dog, and he did not dare to return to the imperial capital. He could only live under the roof of the Governor of Jingchu. The Governor of Youyan was better than the Governor of Jiangnan, but it was quite limited. His jurisdiction was originally Youzhou and Yanzhou. Now Youzhou was occupied by the Governor of Liaodong Zhao Zheng, and Yanzhou was also infiltrated by the powerful people of Liaodong. Many local Yanzhou residents were related to the powerful people of Liaodong and secretly communicated with each other. As long as the Liaodong cavalry went south to enter the pass, these people would respond one after another. Yanzhou was almost invincible and could only give in."

Li Yuanying's face was also a little dim and said, "In this case, Qizhou became crucial. Although Qin Daofang was the governor of Qizhou, our Qing Weizong and Sheji Academy still firmly controlled the situation in Qizhou. If Qing Weizong turned to Liaodong, then the Liaodong army could cross the sea from Liaozhou and Youzhou to land in Qizhou, and then go straight from Qizhou to the imperial capital, forming a siege with the Liaodong army in Yanzhou. When Qin Daofang wiped out the Qingyang Sect, I instructed to block the sea route, but I didn't want to see Qin Daofang control Qizhou and then echoed Liaodong. Under the current situation, although Qin Daofang is a member of the Qin family, it is not easy to act rashly, otherwise he will follow the footsteps of the Governor of Jiangnan."

Shi Zongxi looked at him deeply: "It is precisely because of this that the old sword god agreed to Li Xuandu's marriage with Qin Su, and released many unusual messages. It was not that Qing Weizong really intended to join forces with Liaodong, but that it put pressure on the court through this move, which was a silent threat, forcing the court to make concessions on certain matters, which made Qing Weizong take the initiative."

Li Yuanying didn't speak, as if he was accused of it.

Shi Zongxi sighed again: "Looking back then, the imperial court was in its prime, and the local tyrants dared to bargain with the imperial court like this. But now, the central tyrants actually have to look at the expressions of the local tyrants."

Li Yuanying laughed and said as if he was pointing out: "After the local tyrants enter the center, they should remove the word "place". Our Qingwei Sect is just seeking a place in the temple. The Liaodong tyrants want to drive away all the others. How can they say the same thing?"

Shi Zongxi said: "Master Li, I will see you again when I am leaving here. I just hope to meet you tomorrow. It will not be your second time that you and I will not stop Li Xuandu from entering the capital."

Hearing this, Li Yuanying's face became a little darker and said, "It's not impossible."

Shi Zongxi stopped talking, with complicated eyes and sighed: "It's a waste of effort."

...

The Butian Sect has no property in Hejian Prefecture, but Jing Xiu has a private residence here. He occasionally stays here for a few days to contact the gentry and wealthy Yanzhou. It is precisely because of this that Qin Qing sent him to pick him up nearby. At the invitation of Jing Xiu, Li Xuandu, Qin Su and others left Taiping Inn and went to Jing Xiu's residence to visit.

As soon as we left the back door of the inn, the carriages and horses outside had been arranged. Qin Su and other women took the car, while the man was riding a horse and led the way from someone to lead the way. Soon, he came to the gate of a mansion. However, he saw the high and wide gate tower, and the vermilion gate, and two rows of swordsmen were lined up, which showed Jing Xiu's momentum here.

That night, Jing Xiu held a banquet and invited Li Xuandu. Not only did he invite many famous figures in the local world, but also many gentry and wealthy businessmen. Qin Su was originally not able to withstand such social engagements, but because of Li Xuandu, he also participated. He sat in the same place with Li Xuandu. After Li Xuandu experienced great ups and downs, he felt as if he had washed away his luster and was calm and steady. Now he has achieved success in his cultivation and is in a high position, and he is more and more heroic. Needless to say, Qin Su is not inferior to Su Yunxian, a palace official, and a beautiful woman with a clear and peaceful beauty. He also comes from a famous family. The two of them sit together. No matter who sees them, they will praise a pair made of heaven and earth.

The so-called "Heshuo" refers to the north of the long river, Yanzhou is in it. Li Xuandu ran across the land of Heshuo with one sword, which really attracted many enemies. However, today is different from the past. Li Xuandu is not only the sect leader of Taiping Sect, the future son-in-law of "Tiandao", but also the disciple of the old sword god, the descendant of the Great Heavenly Master, and the Earth Master calls him a friend. On that day, the sect leader of each sect gathered, and the Great Heavenly Master came to congratulate him. The Earth Master sent someone to send a gift. How great is this? Among the people who chased Li Xuandu back then, there were many monks from Jing Zen. Now Jing Zen has become a yellow flower tomorrow, and they have to live under someone's roof. Look at Li Xuandu's face. Although Li Xuandu is alone, he is a great man in the world. For ordinary people in the world, he is a big man who turns his hands to make clouds and rain. Who dares to come and find his bad luck?

Because of this, many of the top figures in Yanzhou's world not only never mention their old grievances, but also greet them with a smile. They not only want to curry favor with Li Xuandu, but also are afraid that Li Xuandu will pursue the pursuit of that year.

Now Li Xuan is no longer the young man who has reached the top of martial arts. He has a bigger picture and a higher vision, so he naturally will not act voluntarily. He never mentions the events of the past while drinking and chatting, and has a very stance to eliminate grudges with a smile.

There is a common problem in the world that people always think that everything big people do is very profound. They have to explore several layers of deep meaning in one move, and then praise a flower, which is simply like a god. Little do they know that the so-called big people are only a few words in history, and there are only a few people who can praise them. There are also times when they are at a loss. After all, they are just a mortal. In the eyes of all the guests, Li Xuandu's actions are as humble as a valley, and the prime minister can hold a boat in his stomach. But if Li Xuandu was still the fourth gentleman who lost his cultivation and status, I am afraid no one would think so, but instead think so. Li Xuandu was always Li Xuandu, but his status was different, and he was wearing a sacred robe, not like a mortal.

Li Xuan could see clearly and was secretly alert in his heart: "This is the taste of power, but it is even more powerful than the inner demon. He would unknowingly indulge in it, corrupted by it without knowing it. Thinking of the fact that Emperor Shizong, who entered the imperial capital alone, a young man defeated the elders of three dynasties, and then eliminated the bad policies and suppressed the eunuchs, making the government a new thing, and made the Wei Dynasty look like a revival. What a hero. But here he was.

In his later years, he did not have the word "desire for power". He was indifferent to governing himself, but in fact he secretly practiced himself and pursued immortality every day, but did not hear about the government, which caused the government to be corrupt and border affairs to be slackened. This led to the fact that the Jin Horde captured Xijing. Now I hold authority, and I must have someone to flatter him. If I cannot keep my original intentions, I will be so gloomy and forget myself. I am afraid that I will follow the footsteps of Emperor Shizong."

Li Xuandu was thinking about this in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face. He drank and talked with the guests, and he also accepted the various flattery and flattering words of the guests.

The banquet lasted until late at night before it was dispersed. Many guests dispersed. Jing Xiu, as the host, was going to see him off. Qin Buyi had not shown up. Qin Buer, Qin Busan, Qin Busi and others had other important tasks and did not stay for a long time. In the end, only two idle people, Li Xuandu and Qin Su, were left.

Li Xuandu was in love with "all-infection". Although he drank a lot, he did not smell any alcohol. He came to the yard and remained silent.

Qin Su stood behind him without saying anything.

Li Xuandu suddenly asked, "Su Su, how do you think I performed at the banquet?"

Qin Su smiled: "Do you want to hear the truth or the lies?"

Li Xuandu said: "Of course it's the truth."

Qin Su's eyes turned and said, "One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, filial piety, brotherhood, loyalty, trustworthiness, courtesy, righteousness and integrity."

Li Xuan was stunned, then reacted and cursed, "One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, forget eight; filial piety, brotherhood, loyalty, loyalty, courtesy, righteousness, integrity, shameless. Are you scolding me in a corner?"

Qin Su smiled and said, "You still know."

Li Xuandu said: "Of course I know."

"I'm not scolding you, I'm Qin Su sarcasticating Mr. Li to accept advice." Qin Su half joked: "I'm really afraid that you will become an old sword god or my father."
