Chapter 55: Imprisonment
The last battle between Li Xuandu and Li Daoxu still caused Li Xuan to suffer some injuries, especially Li Daoxu's last palm was condensed by his lifelong cultivation, as if thousands of sword energy were penetrated. Although Li Xuan finally broke the sword energy, the injuries were still left behind. Even if Li Xuan had "full leakage" in his body, he could not recover quickly. This was why he decided to withdraw from the imperial capital for the time being.
After a day of rest, Li Xuandu's condition improved a lot, so Qin Qing decided to return to Liaodong, and Qin Su also returned to Liaodong with his father. He was not going to go home and wait for marriage. After all, the marriage period of the two was delayed again and again, and there was no rush for a while. It would be better to wait until the world is peaceful and get married. Maybe there would be a good story about "Why do you want to be a family in the world?"
Qin Su was actually responsible for escorting Xie Zhi when she went back this time.
It is easy for Li Xuan to kill Xie Zhi even if he wants to kill Xie Zhi. He can kill her with one sword in the altar of the world. Even though Li Xuan was injured at that time, he was seriously injured after a big battle. Even if Xie Zhi was hidden and had a good cultivation level, there was still no suspense in the outcome between the two sides.
Xie Zhi also thought of fighting to the death. After Li Daoxu ascended, he wanted to snatch the "Knocking the Sky Gate" that he lost his master in order to have a glimmer of hope, but Li Xuandu was controlled by the Six Spells.
The Six Mantras have always been bullying the weak and afraid of the strong. When they encounter people with higher level of cultivation than themselves, their power will be reduced. However, when they encounter people with lower level of cultivation than themselves, their power will be doubled. Therefore, Li Xuandu's Six Mantras return to Li Dao's vain and nothingness, but on Xie Zhi's side, there is another level of world, so Xie Zhi naturally cannot resist.
After Li Xuandu controlled Xie Zhi, he grabbed Gu Yusheng and Lou Xinqing and took all three out of the Imperial Capital.
Then Li Xuandu and Qin Qing met in Yuqingyuan and learned about the attitude of the Confucian clan towards Xie Zhi.
The Confucian Party was very determined to take revenge. Li Xuan killed Xie Zhi and strongly supported Xie Zhi to discuss the crime and then made the justice and punishment. Li Xuandu was also a little hesitant for a moment, so he decided to imprison Xie Zhi for the time being. At worst, he could wait until the world was truly peaceful before he would punish him.
As for the place of imprisonment, Li Xuan chose three places, namely the Great Wilderness North Palace of Taibai Mountain, the Great Zhenren Mansion of Yunjin Mountain, and the Penglai Island of the East China Sea. Considering that Xie Zhi was from the five sects of Liaodong, he finally decided to detain him in the Great Wilderness North Palace. So this matter was left to Qin Su, because Qin Su was familiar with the road and was convenient to act; secondly, Qin Su happened to go home on the way and could still walk with Qin Qing; thirdly, Qin Su understood what Li Xuandu was thinking best, and he was most relieved to leave this matter to her.
Regarding this matter, Li Xuandu also greeted Qin Qing and placed Xie Zhi in the Wanmiao Cave Heaven below the North Palace of the Great Wilderness. There is only one exit in this cave. As Qin Qing’s retreat on weekdays, it is already very strict in the garrison. Qin Qing would send additional personnel. It is certainly a foolproof to place Xie Zhi here.
Qin Buyi and Jing Xiu temporarily stayed with Li Xuandu's side, which was Qin Qing's intention.
Bai Xiushang originally planned to stay in the Imperial Capital to assist Li Xuandu, but Qin Qing took the initiative to invite Bai Xiushang to visit Liaodong before leaving. Bai Xiushang went to Liaodong last time and accepted Murong Hua as his disciple. He had not been there for many years, so he did not refuse and was invited to go.
In this way, Qin Su, Qin Qing, Bai Xiushang, Qin Buer and Yun Chengzong returned to Liaodong together.
On the other side, Zhang Haishi, Li Feiyan, Wanshou Zhenren, Taiwei Zhenren, and Sanxuan Zhenren also set out first and went to the Qingwei Sect in Donghai to inform the Qingwei Sect that the old sect leader Li Daoxu ascended to the immortals and passed the throne to Li Xuandu, which was considered a front station. The three Taoist real people are old friends of Li Daoxu, and this is also a friend.
For the Qingwei Sect, this matter is both joyful and sad. What is joyful is that the people who ascend to the immortals in the sect are a great honor that can be passed down to the future generations of the world. However, ascend to the sky and there is no way back, which is no different from death, and it is also a tragedy.
When Li Xuan finished his affairs in the imperial capital, he would return to Qingweizong to worship the ancestors of Qingweizong and the ancestors of the Li family, and personally sent the tablets of his master Li Daoxu to the ancestors of Qingweizong and the ancestral halls of the Li family.
Another thing is that Shen Yuanzhou, Xiao Shiyu and others also said goodbye and left first.
Now, in addition to the inns, there are a few sect leaders around Li Xuandu have never left.
Li Xuandu asked, "I wonder which big shot gave this order?"
Nalanxu hesitated for a moment and replied: "It's from Ziyanshan."
"So it's him." Li Xuandu nodded slightly, "I heard that you are in charge of the Capitol Department, and Chen Mian is in charge of the Qingluan Guard Governor's Office. In this way, are you all from the Confucian Sect now?"
Nalanxu whispered: "Yes."
"The old family in the world for hundreds of years is nothing more than accumulating virtue. The first good thing in the world is to study." Li Xuandu said, "The Confucian school is also a good place."
Nalanxu remained silent.
Li Xuandu asked, "Is there anything else?"
Nalanxu shook her head gently.
Li Xuandu said: "Bingyan, take out the guests on my behalf."
Lu Yanbing, who was closest to Li Xuandu, immediately stepped forward and smiled and said, "Mr. Nalan, please."
During the Emperor's Capital Change on the third day of the twelfth lunar month, Li Xuandu first took control of the Qingluan Guard Governor's Office. Later, the Taoist Sect and the Confucian Sect reached a peace agreement. The Dao Sect withdrew from the Emperor's Office and took Li Yuanying away at the same time. The Qingluan Guard Governor's Office naturally returned it to the Confucian Sect.
The Confucian clan naturally took over the yamen that originally only obeyed the royal family and used to balance the Confucian clan, appointed the fake immortal Chen Mian as the left governor of Qingluan Guard, the young swordsman as the right governor, and Chu Zunliang as the chief governor.
Nalan Xu, whose cultivation is second only to Chen Mian, was appointed as the chief officer of the Supervisor. In one department, the doctor is second only to the Shangshu and the Minister of the Secretariat, and is the chief officer of the First Division. The Supervisor has a total of twenty-five chief officers. In addition to one of the two capitals and one of the nineteen prefectures, there are four chief officers. They are called the "Four Great Detectives" by people of good deeds in the world. Nalan Xu is also the chief officer of the Imperial Capital City of the Supervisor. Shen Shuangmei is also one of the chief officers, and now he is a subordinate of Nalan Xu.
In addition, the Five City Military and Ma Si is still in charge of Wen Hongcheng, a human being in the Confucian sect. Thanks to Princess Xuanzhen, who spoke up to save his life that day, otherwise he would have died at Qin Buer's hands.
There are some changes in the cabinet, but Zhao Lianggeng is still the chief assistant and Mei Shenglin is the secondary assistant. The former is because the tree is big and deep, and it is difficult to move lightly. The latter is because it sways with the wind and makes meritorious in taking the team.
Two cabinet members who originally belonged to the Later Party were dismissed and investigated, and the Minister of Revenue and the Zuodu Censor were added. They were attacked by people from the Later Party before, but became qualifications. Emperor Tianbao considered them to be loyal ministers and named them to let them enter the cabinet. They thanked the emperor for their kindness and deeply felt that His Majesty is a wise king and lord, and the current dynasty is naturally full of court affairs.
As for Yang Tianfeng and others, many people were arrested, and together with their elders, they were imprisoned in the Zhao Prison of the Qingluan Guard General's Office. They were afraid that it would be difficult to get out alive. Even if they were lucky enough to die, they would have to take off a layer of skin.
However, Yang Tianfeng himself was safe and sound. Because Yang Lu was protected by the Confucian Sect, no one dared to take Yang Tianfeng anyway. This made many Confucian Sect and Qingliu secretly complain and were very dissatisfied. However, Yang Tianfeng was still under Shangguan Guan's control. No matter what the heroine asked him to do, he would not dare to say a word.
Lu Yanbing sent Nalan Xu away, and Li Xuandu no longer had the intention to continue discussing matters, and turned to say, "Bai Zhou."
Zhang Baizhou responded and walked out.
Li Xuandu said: "I heard from Master Shangguan, you still have a confidante, is there any such thing?"
Zhang Baizhou's face turned red immediately and he was speechless.
The people around him could be regarded as experienced people, and they all laughed with ease, and the atmosphere became relaxed.
Zhang Baizhou was laughed at by everyone, and his face turned redder and he could hardly raise his head.
Li Xuandu said: "The Confucian sect emphasizes the defense of men and women. Our Taoist sect does not have such rules. Moreover, there are elders here and many women, so it doesn't matter to avoid suspicion. Go and invite your friends out and let everyone meet you. If it is appropriate, maybe your big media will be among the crowd today."
The so-called big media is a matchmaker. When the big media is in the morning, they usually go to the girl's house to hire with each other. Li Xuandu and Qin Su's marriage is Zhang Haishi. After all, getting married is a good match between Qin and Li. Zhang Haishi is a person of a foreign surname, so naturally not a relative of the Li family. However, Zhang Haishi has an old age with Qin Qing and Li Xuandu's senior brother, but it is just right to be a matchmaker. The only disadvantage is that Zhang Haishi has no wife. Generally speaking, it is better for the big media to come forward with the couple.
The meaning of Li Xuandu's words is also that he wants to be a matchmaker for Zhang Baizhou himself.
Several women couldn't help laughing out loud. Zhang Baizhou felt embarrassed and turned around and left like a fleeing.
Not long after, Zhang Baizhou led Lu Youzhen over. Compared to Zhang Baizhou's shyness, Lu Youzhen acted as usual and saluted Li Xuandu and others openly, neither humble nor arrogant.
This made many people nod their heads secretly. At a young age, they were quite calm.
Li Xuan saw it and thought to himself: "Bai Zhou is tough on the outside and soft on the inside. If he really can marry this little girl home, although he will not be afraid of the inside, most of the big and small things in the family will be decided by the wife."
Specific examples, Li Feiyan and Li Daoshi are like this. Is Li Daoshi afraid of Li Feiyan? Is it not afraid of Li Feiyan? It is definitely not that Li Feiyan said something, Li Daoshi would be so scared that he was trembling. At the critical moment, Li Daoshi still dared to draw his sword to fight. The key is that Li Daoshi could not fight Li Feiyan, so he often suffered repeated defeats, and finally he was controlled by Li Feiyan. The power of the family fell into Li Feiyan's hands. This is not the same as fearing the man, and he can only say that he has poor ability. If both sides are evenly matched, then he will be even more likely to see. He has to fight every three days and fight every ten days, which will turn the world upside down.
Ning Yi, who has always been taciturn, said, "When I was young, I heard Mr. Lu speak with a small message. At that time, Miss Lu was still a three-foot-year-old boy, but I didn't expect that she had already become a big girl in the blink of an eye."
Lu Youzhen knew that Ning Yi was once a Confucian scholar and said, "My father also mentioned Mr. Ning."
