The access to the imperial capital is very strict. After closing the city gate, it is the princess, so it is not easy to openly call it to open the city gate. In fact, Princess Xuanzhen did not want to enter the city. These days, she and Shangguan Wan both lived in the villa manor outside the city, so the princess's car was not going to the imperial capital city, but to the villa outside the city.

Unlike ordinary princesses, she holds real power and can participate in the government affairs. She has great influence in the royal family. At the same time, because of the Tao, she can receive guests freely without being bound by etiquette and law. This villa is naturally not just for the princess to live in leisure, but is often the place where Princess Xuanzhen receives guests. When Zhao Lianggeng came to Beijing, the first guest to visit was Princess Xuanzhen, and the place where the two met was in this villa.

After all, it is in the mountains outside the city, so there is no question of being crowded with people and being able to avoid the surveillance of Qingluan Guard.

Zhang Baizhou ignored what the three of them said in the carriage, but just looked at the surrounding scenery, but was thinking about what Li Xuan was all about.

Li Xuandu clearly wants to overthrow the royal family of the Wei Dynasty, but why is he related to Princess Xuanzhen?

Does he want to support a female emperor?

Or is there any story between these two people?

Zhang Baizhou thought in a mess, but felt that his ideas were too unrealistic. According to his understanding, Li Xuan didn't like to play with conspiracies very much, and he prefers conspiracies. Of course, it was not that Li Xuan didn't use conspiracies, but instead focused on conspiracies and supplemented by conspiracies. What is conspiracies? You know what I want to do, but you can't stop me. This is conspiracies.

But then again, open conspiracy is about strength.

Zhang Baizhou sighed. Since the first year of Tianbao, to the eighth year of today, Li Xuan seemed to have changed his personal life. He missed the Zifu Sword Immortal more, rather than Mr. Qingping today, but he understood that if the Zifu Sword Immortal cannot avenge his revenge, Mr. Qingping can only avenge him, and the Zifu Sword Immortal will only die on the road to revenge.

It seems that soon he will enter Beijing in person.

...

As the leader of the seven hermits in Confucianism, Old Man Long only likes to go to two places on weekdays, one is the Hanlin Academy and the other is the Imperial Heavenly Prison.

The Hanlin Academy is a place where he deals with books and studies. The Imperial Heaven Supervisor is where he meets several other hermits.

The Imperial Heaven Supervision set up one supervisor, one deputy supervisor, and one chief clerk, and one supervisor, and one supervisor. The five senses are in charge of documents. Five senses are in charge of the five senses, one person in spring, summer, autumn, winter, and other auxiliary officials are responsible for timing, changing time, reporting updates, etc.

Old Man Long is not the supervisor of the Imperial Heaven Supervision, but an ordinary facial features.

There is a three-story building in the Imperial Heavenly Supervisory Office. The third floor is a special place for observing the astronomical phenomena. On weekdays, only Old Man Long is here, which is very quiet.

The third floor is only half the size of the second floor, and the other half has been expanded into an open-air platform, with sundials and other objects placed next to it. There is also a recliner next to it, which is a thing that has been used for many years, and it has been moistened. A faint yellow light appears under the moonlight. Old Man Long is lying on the recliner, looking at a bright moon in the sky.

The one who came to see Old Man Long today was Chi Yangweng. He stood beside the recliner, but looked at the Xiongcheng under the night sky. Because there are few high-rise buildings in the world, most of them are bungalows, and at most two stories high, there is no blocking of sight at first glance.

Old Man Long said casually: "I didn't know the moon when I was a child, so I called it a white jade plate. I also suspected that the mirror on the Yaotai platform was flying in the blue clouds. Now, the moon is still the moon, but the state of mind is not the state of mind that I used to be."

The Red Sheep Weng was slightly stunned and did not understand the intention of Old Man Long saying this.

Old Man Long continued, "The bright moon was there, and the colorful clouds returned."

The Chiyang Weng understood and also sighed through the words of the ancients: "I think of it with passion, but there was the bright moon at that time, and I still looked at people."

Old Man Long finally withdrew his gaze, "The old brothers back then have already left two."

Chiyang Weng sighed: "It's just that there are differences in order, but in the end it will be the same as the same destination."

Old Man Long smiled, no longer mentioned this slightly sad topic, and instead asked, "Since you came here in person, it has always been very important."

Chiyang Weng nodded and said, "There is definite news in Liaodong."

Old Man Long stretched out his finger and tapped the armrest of the recliner, "You are talking about Dan Taiyun."

"That's right." Chiyang Weng said, "Li Xuan was in Liaodong and took action to stop Dan Taiyun."

Old Man Long frowned slightly and said, "Even if Li Xuan is here, he may not be Dan Tai Yun's opponent. Besides, there are four big Yesen's faces. I think Li Xuan is not enough to stop Dan Tai Yun."

Chiyang Weng smiled bitterly and said, "This time it's not whether Li Xuan can stop Dan Taiyun's problem, but Dan Taiyun is defeated."

"Defeated?" Old Man Long was stunned.

Chiyang Weng said: "It is said that the sun and the moon are reversed on Taibai Mountain. This is like the scene where Li Xuan used the 'Taiyi Art'. There was also news from the northwest that Dan Taiyun had indeed returned to Wuxu Palace. If Dan Taiyun wins, she should be in the North Palace of the Great Wilderness."

Old Man Long no longer lay on the recliner, but sat upright and said, "Dan Tai Yun was defeated... Could it be that Qin Qing and Li Xuan have joined forces?"

"There is a possibility. But..." Chiyang Weng hesitated.

"But what?" asked Old Man Long.

Chiyang Weng said: "The news came from the Great Wilderness North Palace that after Dan Taiyun was defeated, Qin Qing did not show up, and it was still the chief of Qin Su. Because the secret son we placed in the Butian Sect was not in high status, when Li Xuandu fought with Dan Taiyun, martial law was in full swing in the Great Wilderness North Palace, and he was not easy to walk around at will, so he did not see the specific process of the two fighting with his own eyes."

Old man Long fell into deep thought.

Chiyang Weng continued: "Dan Taiyun is too arrogant. Since we all think that Li Xuan is not her opponent, then she must think so. Maybe Li Xuan also thinks so, and he will definitely prepare more. One is arrogant and underestimating the enemy, the other is ready to fight, and the other is arrogant and will lose the battle."

Old Man Long slowly spoke: "It's not impossible."

Chiyang Weng sighed, "Fortunately, Dan Taiyun saved his life and did not die in Liaodong. If she also died in Liaodong, it would be very difficult to balance Li Xuandu and Qin Qing's father-in-law and son-in-law."

Old Man Long stood up with the armrest of the recliner, "It would be great if Qin Qing had a son. In this way, we can use some means to make the father-in-law and son-in-law have a gap. Unfortunately, Qin Qing only has one daughter and has no choice."

Chiyang Weng hesitated for a moment and said, "If Qin Qing had been in the kingdom, who would he pass on the kingdom?"

Old Man Long looked at Chiyang Weng and asked back: "What is the purpose of having children?"

Chiyang Weng was stunned and then replied: "Continue the incense and inherit the bloodline."

"Yes." Old Man Long said, "As soon as a person dies, he must pass on his blood incense by giving birth to children. In this way, it is passed on from generation to generation. But what if a person does not have birth, old age, sickness and death? Is it necessary to pass on the incense?"

"Of course there is no need." Chiyang Weng frowned, "But the immortal man has a hundred years of life, and even Qin Qing can't be the emperor all the time."

Old Man Long waved his hand and said, "I don't mean that after entering the realm of immortality, even if I don't ascend, I can be considered half an immortal. It's very different from others. If I want to leave children, it will be difficult. In fact, after entering the realm of heaven and man, it will be difficult to leave children. At most, it will be one or two children, and there are only seven or eight children. This is also the reason why Xu Wugui, Li Daoxu and others have not left children. The family of the Zhang family, which has been passed down from generation to generation, even though it is necessary to get married as soon as possible, so as not to cut off children when the state is high in the future. But even so, the adoption of nephews among the great masters of all generations has happened frequently. In order to show that he would definitely be able to enter the realm of immortality, Zhang Jingxiu vowed not to marry for his life, and finally adopted Zhang Luanshan to his knees."

Chiyang Weng finally understood, "Senior Brother means that Li Xuandu and Qin Su are likely to have no descendants."

Old Man Long nodded and said, "Li Xuan is already in the realm of immortality, Qin Su is in the realm of heaven and man. It is difficult to keep his children, which is comparable to surviving the heavenly tribulation. Therefore, even if Qin Qing is willing to let his daughter and son-in-law inherit the Qin family, there will still be no successor in one generation. It is better to find a nephew to train him earlier."

Chiyang Weng thought for a moment and said, "Since that's the case, this road is not working anymore. We have to deal with it."

Old Man Long walked slowly with his hands on his back and asked, "Xie Zhi sent Lou Xinqing to meet Li Xuandu. It is said that they had a lot of fun talks. In your opinion, how sincere are both parties?"

"It's nothing more than a delaying strategy." The Red Sheep man shook his head and smiled.

Old Man Long whispered: "What if Li Xuan took advantage of this excuse to go to Beijing?"

Chiyang Weng was shocked and said, "It's not impossible. So what is Li Xuandu's purpose of going to Beijing? Fight against us?"

"No." Old Man Long shook his head and said, "I always have a premonition that Li Xuan will come to take the initiative to find us. I see his actions over the years and are used to turning swords into jade and silk. As long as he is not a person who blocks his path, he can take it for himself. For him, the Confucian school is a great enemy, not a great enemy. In some aspects, we are actually able to make the same plan."

Chiyang Weng had already had an idea, but he still asked: "What should I do with my senior brother?"

Old Man Long said: "Although Qin Su killed Wang Nanting, it doesn't matter. The key is how Confucianism and Taoism should get along in the future. So what I mean is, follow the previous conventions."

Chiyang Weng nodded and said, "Sikong Daoxun and Li Xuan both have friendships. If Sikong Daoxun comes forward, Li Xuan will not be unkind. This time the candidate is Sikong Daoxun, how about it?"

The so-called convention is to stay on the front line of people. For example, if the Confucian sect decides to start a war with the Taoist sect, most high priests and hermits will agree, and at the same time there will be a high priest who opposes or is neutral. This is the room left by the Confucian sect in advance. When the situation changes, the high priests can mediate. If the situation is unfavorable, the high priests who were opposing at the time will also come to negotiate peace.
