Because of Yan Feiqing's kindness to keep guests, Li Xuandu and Qin Su lived in Yan Feiqing and Su Yunyan's private houses. Fortunately, this place occupies a large area and has a unique courtyard to entertain guests, which is convenient.

As the Mid-Autumn Festival approaches, the moon in the sky has been round. Several clusters of water and bamboo in the courtyard are scattered on the brick and stone floor, like a floating shadow of cool water. There is also a pool with rockery not far away. The water light shines and the waves are sparkling, which shows the ingenuity and elegance.

It was already dark, and Li Xuandu and Qin Su were not sleepy. They stood by the pool and looked at the lake.

Yan Feiqing did not agree to Yan Feiqing's proposal immediately, but said that she had to think carefully, and Li Xuan did not force it. He knew that Yan Feiqing was a little undecided, but he believed that after Su Yunxian came back, she would definitely help Yan Feiqing leave a son. With Su Yunxian's temperament, she would never allow Yan Feiqing to spend her life in vain. Otherwise, it would be best to complement each other between husband and wife, this is the case between Yan Feiqing and Su Yunxian, and the same between Li Xuandu and Qin Su.

Li Xuandu suddenly said, "Su Su, do you know who I remembered at this moment?"

Qin Su was stunned, "Who is it?"

"It's Zhang Xiang." Li Xuandu looked up at the bright moon above his head.

Qin Su asked softly: "Is it... because of Sister Zhang?"

"No, it has nothing to do with her." Li Xuandu retracted his gaze and turned to look at Qin Su, "I remembered Zhang Xiang's new policy. If the benefits that can be obtained from the world are compared to a big cake, the cake is so big, the court eats 40%, the powerful and powerful people in the world eat 40%, and the remaining 20% ​​belong to the people. However, the powerful and powerful people are still constantly eroding the big cakes of the court and the people. When the people cannot eat the cakes, it is when the people cannot survive and rebel. At this time, some people want to change this share and let the court and the people eat more, which will inevitably move the share of these powerful and powerful people. Cutting off people's wealth is like killing parents, then they will definitely join forces with the people who move their big cakes. Zhang Xiang is the one who moves the big cakes, so he failed and fell into dust overnight. The master who originally supported Zhang Xiang also began to oppose Zhang Xiang and gave up Zhang Xiang because the Qingweizong was also a powerful person."

Qin Su hesitated for a moment, "What about us?"

"Yes, we are also powerful people who eat big cakes." Li Xuandu smiled, "So I was wondering, if one day Liaodong enters the pass and sits on the throne of the imperial capital, would they be willing to divide some of their big cakes for the court and to the people?"

Qin Su couldn't speak.

Li Xuan sighed, "I don't think it's different. Liaodong and Wei. At the beginning of the dynasty, the administration was clear and clear. No matter how hard it was, no one was not working hard. It was just because of the hardships and hardships that time, I could only seek a life from the deaths. Then gradually improved, the court became stable, and gradually became lazy. The minority became the majority, and then laziness became the wind. Although it was powerful, it could not be reversed and difficult to remedy. This is why Zhang Suqing wanted to implement the method of examination. Some were driven by the desire for achievements and the party was the same to fight against the differences. When talents gradually became exhausted and difficult to deal with, the situation became complicated. Just like this cake, the court could eat 60% at the beginning, gradually only 50% at the end, and only 30% and 20% were left, which was difficult to maintain."

Li Xuandu sighed: "This is what Master Di said I was not enough, or it can be said to be a short-sighted place. At first, I didn't care about it, but later during the days when I was sick, I kept thinking about the last words of Master Di. The more I thought about it, the more I felt it made sense. We shouldn't just wander around in this circle. Greed is human nature. It is impossible to start from human nature to solve problems and achieve great harmony in the world. Confucianism has been around for thousands of years, but it has not seen peace in the world, and people's hearts are not upright. On the contrary, people often lament that the world is getting worse and worse. So why should I be better than Confucianism? So I have to find another way."

Qin Su finally spoke, "What's your solution?"

"It's not my method, it's the method of the Earth Master." Li Xuandu said, "The method of the Earth Master is very simple. It is to make the cake bigger so that this cake can feed everyone. Then these contradictions will no longer exist. As long as the cake is big enough, the court is rich, the people live in peace, and the powerful can enjoy the glory. This is probably the atmosphere of prosperity, is it considered peace in the world?"

"Absolutely?" Qin Su was a little uncertain.

Li Xuandu said: "But how to make the cake bigger? The land master also gave a direction, which was to vigorously develop various craftsman techniques. In ancient times, we could only write with tortoise shells and bamboo slips. After papermaking, we could write with paper. In ancient times, we used bows and arrows, which had high requirements for arm strength. But now gunpowder and muskets have emerged, which can be used by women and women. There are also farming, which used to be slashed and fired, but now livestock hoes. These are all advances in art. The land master believes that as long as the art is developed to the extreme, big cakes will be enough to support everyone."

Qin Su asked: "Do you think the Earth Master is more skilled than Zhang Xiang?"

"No one is better. There is no conflict between increasing revenue and reducing expenditure, and the skills and techniques do not conflict with the way to uphold people's hearts." Li Xuandu shook his head and said, "No matter how big a cake is, if you don't control it, it will be eaten up by a big rat. In fact, the same is true for our Taoist sect. The battle between good and evil has lasted for thousands of years. We are fighting for territory and talents. In fact, we are still fighting for a cake. If I eat more, our opponents will eat less. If I eat less, our opponents will eat more, so we will not let it go. Why don't we join forces and put this cake together?

If you become bigger, no one can eat it. I think the old master, master, and father-in-law have seen this, so they decided to promote the unification of the Taoist sect, fight with the Confucian sect, and gain greater space for the Taoist sect. I think some people in Buddhism have seen this, fearing the expansion after the unification of the Taoist sect, so they strongly oppose the unification of the Taoist sect, and have different positions. This is reasonable. But Zhang Jingchen and others are really short-sighted and short-sighted. As a Taoist sect, they have caused these storms for their own selfishness. It is really hateful and annoying!"

Qin Su laughed instead.

Li Xuandu asked, "Why are you laughing at?"

Qin Su said: "Because you are happy."

Li Xuan was attracted by her and asked with a smile: "Why are you happy?"

Qin Su carried his hands on his back and said slowly: "Brother Xuan should know the allusion of quenching thirst in his plums. After quenching thirst in his plums, there was an allusion of celebrating heroes by cooking wine. There is a famous saying: 'A hero has great ambitions, good plans, and the ambitions of the universe.' Brother Xuan asked me why I was happy. My Qin Su's husband is actually a hero. How could he not be happy?"

Li Xuan was stunned, then waved his hands repeatedly and said, "Su Su is really an over-reputation. What kind of hero I am, I just took advantage of the situation."

"No, no," Qin Su chuckled, "As the saying goes, 'The world comes and the world comes together, and heroes are not free from luck.' It is the time to create heroes. Brother Xuan can rise among the world in just three years, how can he know that it is not the hero created by the time to create?"

Li Xuandu said half-deprecatingly: "Then I will lend you auspicious words. If people from later generations can praise a hero when they mention me, I will have no regrets."

At this moment, someone knocked on the door, and the servants in the courtyard had been sent out by Li Xuandu and Qin Su, so Qin Su went to open the door in person, but the people outside the door were the dusty Su Yunyan and Yan Feiqing. It was obvious that Su Yunyan had just returned to Jinling Mansion and had not had time to take a shower and change clothes, so he came here directly.

Qin Su hurriedly let Su Yunxian and Yan Feiqing in, and the four of them came to the hall and sat down separately.

Su Yunxian said first: "I already know what happened. I don't know what Zifu planned?"

Li Xuandu said frankly: "It is related to the major plan of the Taoist sect. You must not tolerate and compromise in this matter, or even give in at all. You must suppress it with thunder means."

Su Yunying nodded, expressed her approval, and said, "After that being said, Zifu should be careful not to be caught by others, otherwise they will make a big fuss to slander Zifu's reputation."

"This is natural." Li Xuandu nodded, "First be polite and then the army."

Su Yunxian glanced at Yan Feiqing and said, "Xuanji told me about Zifu's proposal, and I also discussed it with Xuanji. Everything will follow Zifu's meaning."

Li Xuan didn't show his face and smiled in his heart. In the past, Yan and Su were obviously dominated by Yan Feiqing, but now they are the opposite, clearly Su Yunxian. It can be seen that the couple also pays attention to strength.

But some women can't see this clearly. On the one hand, they want to find a man who is better than themselves in all aspects, and on the other hand, they want this man who is better than themselves in all aspects to follow their own things. This brings up a problem: how can a weak man control a strong man?

This is almost impossible.

It is like Li Xuandu is pointing fingers at Li Daoxu's decision when he fell into the realm. Then the result is conceivable. So the best result is a good match, the couple is evenly matched, the man tolerate women, and each gives in a few steps, both parties can accept it. This is how Li Xuandu and Qin Su get along with each other, and Li Xuandu is the main one, but Li Xuandu will also respect Qin Su's choices and opinions.

Yan Feiqing took out a set of tea sets, cooked tea himself, and said with a faint smile: "Let's sit down and talk slowly, the key is to wait for Nu Wan to come."

Su Yunxian and Yan Feiqing were both trained as the leader of the future sect, and many of their suggestions were also inspiring to Li Xuan.

It was not until the next day that Yu Qingning finally arrived.

Yu Qingning set off from Xiaozhou. The journey is a little far away, a thousand miles away. Although Yu Qingning travels day and night, it is still a few days late.

After Yu Qingning arrived at Jinling Mansion, she didn't bother to rest and met Li Xuandu and others directly. She also brought a letter, which was written by Zhang Yueshan. It was not written for Yu Qingning, but for Li Xuandu.
