Chapter 124 Family and Country Righteousness
After Li Xuandu left, the palace official and Ning Yi were still standing on the deck and did not return to the ship building.
The two were silent for a long time.
After a long time, the palace official whispered: "Mr. Ning, don't care too much. Li Zifu, this person, has gone too far on this road and is destined to be unable to turn back."
Ning Yi shook her head: "He is right."
The tenth person on the Taixuan List sighed deeply: "Don't forget, I grew up reading the Book of Saints, and I was once a disciple of Saints. I know what he wants to say, and I know that he looks down on me a little."
Speaking of this, he couldn't help but smile bitterly: "We have had an intersection before. I know that he is not a pretentious person, nor do I think he is higher than others. There are so many people in the world, why do he look down on me alone? After all, he mourns his misfortune and is angry at him for not fighting. He thinks that I could have come out to help the people, but I am imprisoned in a cage."
The palace official spread the folding fan in his hand to cover his face below his nose: "After all, it's the righteousness of family and country."
Ning Yi looked at the river outside the boat, and at this moment he seemed to have turned back to the passionate scholar with a bookcase on his back, murmured: "The country will not exist, how can the family survive?"
On the other hand, Li Xuandu and Gongguan separated and returned to the official road.
At this time, Li Xuan changed into the literati outfit and dressed in the neat outfit of an ordinary gangster. His erect heads were replaced with flat-headed boots, while the Leng Meiren wrapped the scabbard and the hilt in coarse cloth. As long as he did not pull out the scabbard, there was no clue.
Li Xuandu considered himself a pragmatic person. Take the "Tianle Taoyuan" for example. Are the women there pitiful? There are indeed pitiful people, but there are more and more pitiful people in the world than them. In any case, these women just lost their dignity and freedom. In addition to Taoyuan, there are more people who have not only dignity and freedom, but also their lives have been lost. In order to survive, they sell their bodies, wives, children, and daughters, abandon all their dignity to ask for food. They are even forced by refugees in the riots and refugees, forced to fill the moat with their lives, consume the arrows of the city guards, and roll the wood. There are even horrifying people who regard living people as "two-legged sheep", which is no different from livestock?
Is it hard for the young fairy who lost her lover? Of course, she is much better than those who are not as good as death. Li Xuan couldn't even understand that some people feel sorry for these men and women because they lost their lover, but why do they ignore those people who even lost their lives? Are those lives not lives?
Or, some people think that they are superior and think that the people are made of mud and are turbid, while these men and women are made of water, and they feel refreshed when they see them, so all the compassion and compassion are only used for the romance and romance? Because the elopement between an official lady and a scholar was so dazzled, but she was indifferent to the people who were loneliness outside the city who were starving to death?
Li Xuan has no father or mother. If he had not met his master, he would be one of these people who starved to death, so Li Xuan never looked down on himself.
Zhang Suqing once said to Li Xuandu: "Getting close to power makes some people mistakenly think that they have power." In other words, some people are close to power and think that they are also powerful and look at everything from the standpoint of power and wealthy. They think that they are superior to the common people in everything, but they are regarded as slaves but are not ashamed of it. Instead, they are proud of it and are content with it.
It is too difficult for Li Xuan to change such a world by relying on his own strength.
This is also the reason why Li Xuandu said this to Ning Yi. He did not want Ning Yi to continue to immerse himself in his own world and turn a blind eye to the things outside the window. He did not expect that his words today were the thunder that awakened Ning Yi. It would be considered a knock on the door. Whether he could walk out of this cage depends on Ning Yi himself.
Li Xuan did not have the idea of practicing the "Thirteen Swords of Taiyin" he just obtained immediately. In terms of his current realm, if he wants to control the Thirteen Swords of the whole article, he is still too powerful. At least he has to wait until he returns to the true realm. If he wants to return to the true realm in a short time, he still has to fall into the "Five Qi True Pill".
At this time, Nan Kezi had already set out to return to Donghua Sect to prepare for the alchemy matters. Li Xuandu is a completely out of the way to alchemy. It is useless to go early and it is just useless to waste time. It is better to deal with other things first.
In addition to dealing with the palace official, he also has to go to Tingfeng Tower.
There are four major organizations in the world, namely: Wenxiangtang, Wandumen, Tingfenglou, and Bailianfang. Although they are not sects, they are better than sects and operate all kinds of transactions.
The four families have their own strengths. Among them, Tingfenglou is good at inquiring about news, Wandumen is good at assassination, Bailianfang is similar to pawn shops and escort agencies, and Wenxiangtang is good at forging documents and selling all kinds of things needed for the world of the world. For example, the famous human skin mask is mostly made by Wenxiangtang. The Lucidian Script used by Hu Liang was also purchased from Wenxiangtang, which was almost real. However, the cost was quite expensive. A Lucidian Scripture costs a flat money, which was enough to discourage ordinary people in the world.
This time, Li Xuan went to Tingfenglou to inquire about Qin Xiang.
In the initial rebellion of the Emperor Capital, all four ministers and their sects were killed or injured. As a general promoted by Zhang Suqing, Qin Xiang naturally could not escape the fate of being dismissed from office and imprisonment. However, Qin Xiang was a hero of Liangzhou and Qinzhou, and made great contributions, especially in the army and the people. If he was killed rashly, it would not only shock the court and the country, but also cause trouble in the army. In addition, it was a time of turmoil in the court, so Qin Xiang was only dismissed from office and dismissed from office. In the fourth year of Tianbao, he was released from the imperial prison, demoted to the people, and repatriated to his hometown.
Qin Xiang is a native of Yinyang Prefecture, Zhongzhou. Yinyang Prefecture is located at the northernmost end of Zhongzhou, which happens to be the junction of Zhongzhou, Jinzhou and Yanzhou. Now Qin Xiang is missing. Not only the people in the court cannot find him, but even Li Xuan wants to find him, he has to spend some time, and even seek help from Tingfeng Tower.
But then again, going to Tingfenglou to find out the news is a considerable expense. Just one thousand peace money on him may not be enough, so before he goes to Tingfenglou, he has to go to Bailianfang first.
Like Tingfeng Tower, Bailianfang is spread all over the prefectures all over the world. Sixty miles outside Longmen Prefecture City is an unknown small lake located in the mountains. There is a villa built by the lake by the lake. This is Bailianfang in Zhongzhou.
This villa is very large in scale, with people coming and going, and it looks like a restaurant with good business. However, those who come here are all people from the world. Ordinary people will never come here in their lifetime and are destined to be difficult to get close to, because there will be managers from Bailianfang guarding each intersection leading to the villa. In addition to blocking some ordinary people who have entered this place, they are also responsible for screening guests. If they are regular customers, there will be people who will receive them specifically. If it is a fresh guest, they must identify their identities.
Li Xuandu entered the mountain from a rugged trail. The guard here was a young woman who was no bigger than Li Xuandu. She was dressed gracefully, mainly white, with golden thread piping, and white lotus embroidered on her white embroidered shoes, all of which correspond to the name "White Lotus Square".
The woman asked directly in the official language of Dawei with a straightforward style: "Is this guest official here the first time?"
Li Xuandu took out a white jade token from the "Eighteenth Floor" and handed it to the woman.
A strange color flashed through the woman's eyes. After all, those who can possess a Sumeru treasure without being afraid of showing it to others will either have a great backer or possess unique skills.
Then she looked at the jade plaque in her hand. The jade plaque was made of white jade. The front relief had a "A" character, and a lotus blooming in full bloom was embossed on the back. The woman's face suddenly became a little more respectful: "It turns out that the guest officer was a guest with a font size."
Bailianfang will divide various customers into four levels: A, B, C and D. Among them, the D-font-size guests are the first time to come here. The C-font-size guests are regular customers who have been here more than once and have transaction records, while the B-font-size guests are distinguished guests with transaction records of more than 500 Taiping coins. Five hundred Taiping coins is 15,000 taels of silver. Not to mention the scattered people in the martial arts world, even many wealthy customers with great reputation in the martial arts world cannot take it out. After all, the difference between the tens of thousands of taels of real estate and the direct withdrawal of tens of thousands of taels of cash.
As for the Jiazi customer, the transaction amount is more than 2,000 Taiping money. When Li Xuandu was still the Sword Immortal of the Purple Mansion, he often came here to "sell the stolen goods", but he unknowingly became the Jiazi customer of Bailianfang.
