Mu Mu and Li Xiaoxue were the happiest when their husband and others arrived. Although Yue Ying was a little shy, she followed Mu Mu with a kind of joy that could not be concealed.
With the help of Li Hongxiu, Ye Zhiqiu and Wu Nashi, the whole family had a reunion dinner.
According to the usual practice in previous years, Li Ye gave everyone fifty gold coins after dinner. Even Mu Mu and Li Xiaoxue, who were not short of money, were overjoyed because they were given by Li Ye.
After dinner, while the husband was making tea, Li Ye led Yue Ying to the husband, pointed at the husband and said, "Sister, from now on you will practice with the husband. If you kowtow three times, you will be his disciple."
Yueying obediently kowtowed to her husband and served tea, just like Li Ye did back then.
The gentleman who had drank tea looked at Yueying, nodded and said, "This girl has taught you well. She is already in the middle stage of Qi gathering at such a young age."
Li Ye chuckled and said, "I didn't teach her. I just gave her the Qi Movement Technique you taught me back then and tempered her body a few times. She has only been practicing for more than two months."
The teacher smiled and said: "Are you afraid that I will be bored and stay here to teach me?"
Li Ye pretended to be surprised: "Then Mr. Nan doesn't like it?"
"Okay, let her come back to Fengyun City with me in a few days." The gentleman smiled lightly.
"You want to take her to Tianshan Mountain?" Li Ye was really surprised this time.
"Oh? I didn't have this idea at first, but when you said that Xiaoxue, Qiu Ming and Yueying are all old enough to go to Tianshan, it's really exciting this time." After the gentleman finished speaking, he turned to look at Li Hongxiu.
Li Hong's sleeves were stunned, and she looked at her husband and said, "You can go, I want to stay in the city and look after the shop. I haven't taken care of this for several years. I'm afraid Old Tang and the others are getting more and more wild."
Speaking of Tang Youyu, Li Ye couldn't help but think of Fatty Tang and the others. "Sir, do you have any news about Fatty Tang and the other three?"
"Tang Qiuyu came to the house once a year ago and mentioned that the three of them had a great time in Qingcheng. They were all at the early stage of the golden elixir. The little fat man also learned how to make elixirs and could make elixirs in a few years. ”
The husband watched Li Ye all night, and then told Li Ye again what Tang Qiuyu told him.
Li Ye nodded: "They are all fine, I'm relieved." After thinking for a while, he said, "Didn't Mr. Tang say he would come to Southern Xinjiang to help?"
The gentleman looked up at him and said with a smile: "Tang Qiuyu didn't say anything, but that girl Xia Wutong is clamoring to come, but the emperor is afraid of causing trouble to you and the eldest prince, so she is not allowed to come."
"The eldest prince is good. We get along very well. If it is Princess Wutong, it will be really troublesome. After all, she is a princess. Who dares to control her?" Li Ye was afraid just thinking about it.
The gentleman looked at him and said with a smile: "What are you afraid of? Aren't you going to get along well on Fangcun Mountain? If she comes here, just wait for her as you did on the mountain. This is not the palace at this time."
Li Ye breathed a sigh of relief, looked at his husband and said, "That's right. What I'm most afraid of is someone coming down from the imperial city to make plans. I probably won't be able to fight this battle."
"That's not the case. I told the emperor about this. If they mess around, our master and disciple will just slap our butts and leave. It's not a point to play with them."
Sir is not a fuel-efficient lamp.
...
Under Wu Na's arrangement, everyone in the family went back to their houses to rest.
After all, after traveling for several days, even Li Hongxiu, with his level of cultivation, felt a little sleepy.
Only Li Ye and his husband were left in the living room.
The husband looked at Li Ye, smiled and said, "How do you feel, having never been on a battlefield?"
Li Ye smiled: "I wasn't sure at first, but after walking around the three towns, I was no longer afraid of them."
The husband nodded: "It is better to travel thousands of miles than to read thousands of books. You have already learned this truth. Even if you want to fight this war, it will not be a problem for you."
Li Hehe said with a wry smile: "No one dares to win until the last moment."
The gentleman was silent for a moment and asked seriously: "If we want to fight a protracted war, will the supply of food and grass be sufficient?"
"Our army has already cultivated more than 3,000 acres of land outside the city for spring cultivation. If they are not in a hurry to attack the city, I will arrange for the army to cultivate some more. The supply of food and grass is not a problem."
"That's good. As long as the army is not hungry, you will have won half of the battle." The gentleman looked at Li Ye and felt extremely relieved.
Even if he were to be the national advisor, he would probably not even think about opening up wasteland and cultivating land to solve the food and grass problem.
"If the tribes from the grasslands come to attack the city after spring, what will you do?" The gentleman couldn't help but feel worried when he thought that the war was approaching.
"I have dug a lot of holes and hid them all winter, just waiting for them to attack." Li Ye said with a smile.
The gentleman nodded and stopped asking further questions. The two of them drank tea and enjoyed the rare tranquility.
I don't know how long it took, but the husband suddenly said something, which startled Li Ye. "You must be mentally prepared. The Emperor may not see the day of your victory."
Li Ye was startled and asked in a deep voice: "The emperor's spiritual practice is so high, how can he get sick?"
The husband rolled his eyes at him and said with a smile: "It is precisely because his realm is too high that the world can no longer accommodate him."
"The emperor is about to ascend? Didn't he say that he can survive for another two years? Will he really leave the mess to me and the eldest prince by leaving? Isn't he afraid that I will kill someone if I can't help it?"
Li Ye asked several questions in succession.
The gentleman looked at Li Ye and couldn't help but reach out and hit him on the head, and laughed angrily.
Looking at him, he said: "He will quietly come to Southern Xinjiang before leaving. Then he will go to Fengyun City to meet me. I will accompany him to Tianshan. The troubles in the Imperial City will not be able to trouble you anyway."
"Despite that, I still hate those troublesome things. Whether I do well or not, I will be stigmatized." Li Ye sighed helplessly.
The teacher was stunned, looked at him and asked: "You have been in Buddhism for so long, are you still afraid of being infamy?"
Li Ye was startled and said with a smile: "It would be best if you don't have to memorize it."
The husband looked at him, a little helpless. He didn't want his precious apprentice to have to face many problems at a young age that others could not solve in their lives, and they were still unavoidable problems.
"I remember a saying in Buddhism: Troubles are Bodhi." The teacher said it another way.
Li Ye was so happy that he never expected that his husband would try to meditate with him. He immediately replied with a grimace: "Too many worries will cover up Bodhi."
"Fart! How can there be any trouble in the world that is just right?" The gentleman laughed angrily at him.
"I look forward to it." Li Ye refused to admit defeat.
"I look forward to it too." The gentleman smiled.
...
Putting aside the affairs of his family, country, and world, Li Ye chatted with his husband about home affairs.
"The little girl from the General's Mansion has been to the house several times, and she left crying every time. Are you bullying me?" the gentleman asked with a frown.
"How dare I bully her? Sir, don't forget, she has a master who is very skilled in martial arts."
Li Ye replied calmly. The last thing he wanted to mention at this moment was the young lady.
"Then why does she look like that?" The gentleman looked at him and asked in confusion.
"How did I know? When I came back, I went to the Royal Academy with my eldest brother. Within half an hour of chatting, both her master and apprentice disliked me and looked at each other with disgust. We returned to the Imperial City that same day."
Li Ye couldn't help but feel a little angry when he thought of what happened that day.
After hearing this, the husband couldn't help but sigh: "You idiot, can't you explain it? After all, you have been separated for ten years. How difficult is it to meet each other?"
"I was so angry at that time that I didn't want to explain. It was such a windy and snowy day, and Brother Nalan and I, along with several palace guards, rushed back in the wind and snow. I didn't expect that I would be so angry."
Li Ye curled his lips and replied.
"Oh, this is really a matter of fate. Even if you say it, it won't cause such a big misunderstanding." The gentleman wanted to kick Li Ye.
Li Ye raised his head and glanced at his husband, and said calmly: "Does she believe what I said? That I killed a killer in the Nascent Soul Realm before I was nine years old, and that I can stand up to a practitioner in the Distraction Realm? What about me? Is his realm deliberately suppressed?"
Li Ye shook his head and said with a smile: "If it were me, I wouldn't believe it even to death."
The teacher sighed again: "That's true. He suppressed the realm since he was a child, but he killed a killer in the Nascent Soul realm. His body can resist distractions. I'm afraid only the Emperor, who has been a friend for many years, will believe it, right?"
Li Ye replied helplessly: "So, I don't want to think about these things. After I finish dealing with these messy things in the dynasty, I will go back to Fengyun City to see Mr., and then go to Xuantian Temple, where there is also Taoist Priest Qingxu." Waiting for me."
"Worldly things are just to temper the state of mind, not the ultimate goal. Cultivation is our pursuit. I am very happy that you can keep your original intention."
The gentleman laughed.
"Who knows what will happen in the future? I'm still young and I'm not in a hurry. The year when my wife met my husband, she was already as old as my mother, right?" Li Ye suddenly remembered the spring of that year. feast.
The chaotic wind blows away the wind and clouds,
The returning bird is frightened and flies into the red-sleeved rouge.
Li Ye chanted softly, as if he saw the young lady piercing three flowers with an arrow, Li Hongxiu singing a hundred birds to the phoenix, and the gentleman making everyone break through the situation. In the blink of an eye, ten years have passed.
It's just that the boy he was back then is still the same boy he was back then.
The girl back then was already infected with a trace of mundane vulgarity.
"Do you want to find another chance to explain to her? Or should I go back and talk to her mother?" The husband was unwilling to give up.
"Sir, if you find it useful, please follow your arrangements." Li Ye replied quietly.
The gentleman was stunned, not knowing what to say.
"It's just that I will be very busy next time, so busy that I won't even have time to see her." Li Ye looked at his husband and said seriously.
"The war is about to begin. Maybe before the war is over, we will have to face those messes in the imperial city. I feel that that matter is more troublesome than the two hundred thousand troops I faced in the grasslands in southern Xinjiang."
As soon as Li Ye arrived at the second prince hiding in the imperial city, he felt a fire in his heart. I thought to myself that if you let your own men plot against me and the eldest prince again, I might have no choice but to kill you.
"Because if you can't be good at that time, you will kill people, and the people you kill are the so-called own people!" Li Ye sighed and said softly.
"Sir, sometimes I feel really annoyed. Or was it the happiest time when I was alone on Tianshan Mountain? I never had to consider other people's feelings and could do whatever I wanted."
Li Ye talked a lot and looked at two cups of tea.
The teacher looked at him, shook his head, stood up, patted his butt and sighed: "Ten years have passed in the blink of an eye, and I feel that I am no longer as good as you in some places. I am almost forced to have nothing to teach you."
When Li Ye saw it, he quickly stood up and cupped his hands and said: "Being a teacher for one day is a teacher for life, not to mention there are three children at home waiting for my husband to teach me."
"What's going on with that moon shadow?" The gentleman thought for a while, looked at him and asked.
"Yue Ying, she was on my way to Sanzhen...the two of them had poor life experiences, so I took her back to Nanyun." Li Ye briefly told Yue Ying's story.
"Okay, I will take that little girl away in a few days and let her mother stay in Fengyun City. She can look at the yard or go to the restaurant. There is so much going on there and no one is around." The gentleman waved his hand and walked towards the inner room.
Li Ye got up and said good night to his husband.
Pushing open the door of the living room, it is late at night and the spring scenery is gradually rising.
"When can I be free again!" Li Ye murmured quietly as he walked into the boundless darkness.
