Chang'an, Li family.
"Okay, okay, great!"
Li Yuan almost cheered happily as he slapped the table.
After a while, he remembered to greet his most trusted subordinate: "Come on, brother Li, have tea!"
Li Mi respectfully came forward and sat down, with only half of his body down, and continued to explain what happened at the auction.
Li Yuan's face became more and more like a chrysanthemum.
The best news in the world is that your friend who left you is doing very poorly. It would be even better if he went bankrupt.
whee.
"Bang~" Li Yuan slapped the table again, startling Li Mi.
"Somebody come!"
"Your Majesty, what are your orders?"
"How did you do your job? I, General Li, did my job well and came back to report on his work. What kind of tea did you serve here? Go and get my Longjing!"
Li Yuan's expression changed and he ordered.
If this daughter marries well, one good thing is that her son-in-law is filial. With the full support of the Chai family, it can be said that everyone in the Li family is living a good life.
Even Song's Longjing tea, which he was reluctant to buy before, he specially ordered a few kilograms. This Longjing tea is said to bring enlightenment to martial arts masters and is worth hundreds of gold.
"yes!"
"The emperor has given you too much praise, Mi, I can't bear it!" Li Mi swallowed, but politely refused.
As a former master, he naturally knew the bad character of these big shots. When you are in a good mood, you like to make random promises, but when you get over it, it may cost you even more.
"Father, why are you so happy? We heard laughter outside the door." Li Shimin came to visit with Li Xiuning.
"Your Majesty, Crown Prince, Princess, I have to leave." Seeing that everything had been explained, Li Mi respectfully left with a wink.
After the outsiders left, Li Yuan waved his hand: "Sit down, everyone. Sit down. Hey! In fact, being a father now is both happy and sad.
I am happy that Li Mi returned successfully this time and brought back many technologies, materials, etc. that are necessary for the future development of our Li family.
For example, sweet potatoes, corn, etc. are suitable for northern crops, as well as horseshoes and other necessary technologies to enhance the strength of our army.
As for grief, do you still remember the little girl from the Song family who often came to play at my house during those years in Daye? "
Since her marriage, Li Xiuning has become round and plump, with a unique charm. She was startled when she heard this.
"Is Father talking about Song Yuzhi? What happened to her?"
Li Yuan sighed: "What else can happen? The Song family has been too domineering in recent years, and even now dares to auction the sacred objects of both good and evil at the same time, which naturally arouses public outrage.
General Li saw with his own eyes the three great masters of the two paths of good and evil, and together they went to find Song Yuzhi to give an explanation.
Although he hurried back without seeing the result, with three against two, and a senior grandmaster who had been in the world for decades, it was obvious that the little girl might have suffered a big loss.
I think of the innocent, cute and cute little girl in those years, playing carefree and happily with Xiuning in my house. Now he has become the public enemy of the world, and there is a high possibility of being injured or even defeated.
My heart hurts so much that I can’t breathe!
So Song Que was so cruel that he left his own daughter alone for more than ten years without any supervision.
If I had been firmer and adopted Yuzhi as my goddaughter and taught her carefully, this series of things would probably not have happened. Why! "
At the end of the story, Li Yuan shed tears slowly.
After hearing these words, Li Shimin's mouth twitched and he almost laughed.
No wonder dad laughed so loudly just now. This is really a good thing for the Li family.
The three great masters of the Song family almost made everyone in the world and even the court unable to sleep well. In addition, from time to time it cleans out bandits who have committed many crimes and recruits craftsmen and common people who master various arts.
This makes everyone afraid to act recklessly. After all, how could they become superiors without the hard work and hard work of the subordinates?
Now it's finally fine.
When a whale falls, all things come into being.
"Xiuning, niece Yuzhi has lived in my Li family for such a long time, and she and I are like father and daughter. Even with the relationship between you two, we can't just sit back and watch her being bullied by outsiders.
In this way, you first lead three thousand soldiers and horses to guard the Song family's garrison where Chang'an is located. You can be cheap if necessary! "Li Yuan ordered.
Once the Song family collapses, the Song family's properties will be ruined by countless people. It's better to give someone an advantage than to take advantage of a relative.
Of course, he, Mrs. Li, has always been honest, trustworthy and benevolent. When the Song family comes to find it, it will be treated as if he spent several thousand taels of silver to buy it.
Put it this way, people have already lost all their money, but they can still make a few thousand taels in the end. Isn't this considered benevolent and righteous?
"Yes, Father!" Li Xiuning stood up and said firmly.
With her wisdom, she naturally understands what her father means, but for the sake of her family and her future children, there are some things she can only do.
We can't blame her, a good sister, for being unkind. Who made the Song family so arrogant and domineering over the years?
They lowered the prices of grain and salt; they took away people everywhere at will; they bullied officials in order to enforce security near their residences; they even refused to pay taxes on canals everywhere.
Having offended the world's wealthy families, if the Song family doesn't fall, who will?
At worst, if sister Yuzhi comes over in the future, she, the majestic eldest princess of the Tang Dynasty, will condescend to take her into her home and take good care of her.
"Sir, the latest issue of the Song family weekly report has arrived." A housekeeper shouted outside.
"Hurry, hurry, hurry up and bring him in!" Li Yuan happily greeted him in.
He can't wait to see the news of Song's misfortune.
"Oh, by the way, Mr. Chen, go back and tell the supervisor at Song's residence that the weekly newspaper of one hundred taels per month is too expensive. If the price is not lowered, I, Mr. Li, will no longer subscribe to it."
"Yes, sir!"
Li Yuan lay crookedly on the chair, glanced at the silk in his hand, and was very dissatisfied.
It's just a piece of rag with some words written on it. How dare you charge him so much money? In a few days, Li’s will also have one!
Among them, the lists that irritated him the most were those lists. If they were run well, fame and money could be easily obtained.
Open to the first page.
[Shocked, a young girl was bullied by a centenarian! Everyone was watching, but no one came to help! 】
Li Yuan smiled slightly.
This Song family is quite capable, capable of bending and stretching, and actually knows how to use the sympathy of those people to win back a victory.
Unfortunately, it's too late!
Then he started to look at the text. He had to see what happened to the Song family and what price he had to pay to make corresponding arrangements.
After a while.
Li Yuan sat upright, looking at the news on the silk newspaper with a horrified expression.
Wu Po Void? A powerful immortal?
Looking back at the title, he felt it was full of ridicule. Would such a strong man be bullied? Are you fishing?
The key question is, this girl is already so strong, what about the Invincible Heavenly Sword, and what about Le Ye?
The three great masters suddenly turned into three immortal gods. Then besides obeying orders, what other way do they have to survive?
"Father, are you okay?" Li Shimin, a filial man, stepped forward and asked with concern.
Li Yuan:.
After a moment of silence, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty took another look at the content on the silk newspaper, frowned, and simply threw it directly to his second son, saying in a deep voice: "Read it for yourself!"
Li Shimin took it curiously, already having some guesses in his mind.
Could it be that the Song family suffered a tragic victory?
Even if it is a miserable victory, it is still a victory. There is still a big mountain above Li's head.
A long while.
Li Xiuning came in with a dashing appearance in armor, and at a glance he saw his father and second brother looking sad.
"Dad, second brother, are you okay?"
Li Shimin, Li Yuan:
"The army has been reorganized. When will we set out?"
"It's up to you~" Li Yuan waved his hands helplessly, he didn't even want to speak now.
tired!
army? Set off?
"Wait!" Li Yuan and Li Shimin quickly stood up to stop them.
"What's wrong?" Li Xiuning stood tall with his sword and asked strangely.
The most important thing in military affairs is speed. Don't you understand this?
Li Shimin reluctantly handed over the weekly newspaper on the table: "You will know after you read it."
Li Xiuning first saw the title and was convinced. Soon after, his expression changed from comfort to shock, then to shock and confusion.
Putting down the silk, the young woman froze in her seat and began to think about life. She did not move for a long time.
Wu Po Void? A powerful immortal? How can this be!
At this moment, the young woman had only one emotion in her heart: regret, so regretful!
You know, since ancient times, everyone has understood the truth: one person can ascend to heaven if he or she achieves enlightenment.
If someone's family has a big shot, relatives and friends will definitely benefit.
Why are the Dao Sect, the Demon Sect and Cihang Jingzhai known as the Holy Land of Jianghu? It's because their ancestors once had powerful immortals from the Broken Void.
Not to mention the profound mysteries of inherited martial arts left by these strong men, they can produce at least one or several extremely strong men from generation to generation, and if they are lucky, there will also be great masters.
Even if they are lonely, who would dare to risk the disapproval of the world to exterminate the family? They just ascended, but it’s not like they will never come back!
And Xiuning never thought that her close friend could become such an unparalleled powerhouse.
What if she had disobeyed her family's orders and followed sister Yuzhi all the time? Even if she often takes some time to care about this good sister? How about writing some letters and sending some gifts?
What's the use of spending so much time hanging around those so-called young talents? In addition to using the power of the family to dominate and prosper, what else can they do?
waste!
What makes Li Xiuning even more heartbroken is that Kou Zhong gave up all his family fortune and went to Lingnan to retreat to become a great master?
What did he mean? Why did he stop pursuing her halfway through the pursuit? Li Shi still needs him!
How could he, how could he bear to abandon everything to break through the Grand Master. If the breakthrough was successful, where would that leave her? Are you blind?
The only thing that made her feel better was that Song's martial arts experts judged that the probability of Kou Zhong's breakthrough was extremely small or even impossible.
If the road to becoming a great master was so easy, then these few people would not be the only ones in the entire world for hundreds of years.
so far so good.
"Dong dong dong~"
Butler Chen knocked on the door and came in. He lowered his head, leaned over, and asked cautiously: "Sir, the reply from Director Song is that the prices of all products of the Chamber of Commerce will not be reduced."
After waiting for a while, when there was still no response, the housekeeper looked up and saw that the three people above him were all in a daze. The expressions on their faces changed so fast that even his age had never seen them before.
"Master, Master, Miss, are you okay?"
Three people:.
Lingnan, late at night.
The dazzling Milky Way stretches across the entire sky from south to north, flowing like a silver star river overhead.
The half-curved crescent moon exudes charming bright light, reflecting in the quiet room on the top of the mountain, like mercury slowly flowing into the copper temple, making its whole body emit sacred light.
In the Bronze Palace, Kou Zhong was lying on the ground with his hair disheveled, thinking hard, but there was no strange smell on his body.
In this quiet room, attendants would quietly come in on the first day of every month and deliver secret medicine and clean clothes.
Each secret medicine is a large cloud-patterned pill that melts in the mouth and replenishes qi, blood, internal energy, etc.
And he is an extremely powerful person under the great master, with eight extraordinary meridians connected, so naturally he does not need to eat any more food, let alone relieve himself.
What is Tao?
Kou Zhong passed through the Copper Palace in a daze, looking at the vast starry sky above his head.
The great road is invisible, giving birth to the heaven and the earth; the great road is ruthless, moving the sun and the moon; the great road is nameless, nourishing all things?
Tao gives birth to one, one gives birth to two, two gives birth to three, and three gives birth to all things?
According to the understanding of Song's books, Tao is the principle, the orbit or trajectory of all things, and the essence of the change and movement of things.
Everything is not what it is. The sun and moon shine by themselves without being burned, the stars sequence by themselves without being lined up, animals grow by themselves without being man-made, the wind moves by itself without being fanned, water flows by itself without being pushed, grass and trees grow by themselves without being planted, breathe by themselves without breathing, and have no heartbeat. And my own heartbeat, etc. cannot be fully described, they are all like this.
However, the great master's way is his own way, not the great way of heaven and earth.
Although we talk about seeking the Tao, what we seek is ultimately the Great Way, but when our human power is exhausted, who can understand everything?
Then what is your own way?
The sun rises and the moon sets, there is frost in autumn and snow in winter, and another year has passed before I know it.
From time to time, attendants would come to deliver medicine in the Bronze Palace, and would even bring many books at his request.
Looking at the pile of formulas, calculations, formulas, and various information that he couldn't understand, the bearded Kou Zhong was stunned for a long time, and suddenly he didn't want to live anymore.
If you're in a hurry, you really can't do anything.
Closing his eyes, he suddenly recalled the time when he was a boy. Although the two brothers were poor, had no money, and often couldn't even get enough to eat, they seemed to always laugh happily.
Every time Zhenniang helped him, the brothers would be grateful for many days and vowed to repay her in the future.
But how long has it been since he last visited her?
Just add some coarse salt and wild vegetables to the fish you catch from the river and cook it. It tastes great!
At that time, the two brothers swore that if one day they could make the decision, they would ensure that everyone in the world would be well fed, clothed, and housed.
What now? Since when did you change?
Wait, it seems that the moment I met Sister Xiuning, I became a different person!
"Uh-huh!"
There seemed to be a bright light flashing in the copper palace, and Kou Zhong suddenly opened his bright and dark eyes, which were deep and dark.
"Today you know who I am!"
At this moment, he suddenly understood his path.
There is no woman in my heart, so I draw my sword to the God of Nature!
