Taiping Inn

The royal court is a city, so there are naturally walls, and the city walls are patrolling soldiers of the Qixue Army.

A woman wearing a veiled hat stood on the city wall, standing in the wind, her clothes and the white gauze hanging from the veiled hat were shaking unsteadily by the north wind. A child stood beside her, looking at her appearance, her forehead and nose, some of the characteristics of the people with gold tents, and some of the characteristics of the people with Central Plains on her eyebrows and eyes. I think that their parents are Central Plains and Golden tents.

The woman and the child stood here, but the soldiers who were patrolling the city could not see these two people. It seemed that the two were one and the city wall were natural, without any abruptness, and there was no need to take a look at them. This is the mystery of the state of unity between man and nature. The body is in harmony with heaven and earth, like the breeze and white clouds, like the grass and trees, and no one will feel that the breeze is suspicious, let alone the white clouds are annoying.

The child is both afraid of the fairy sister around him and is also close to him.

The woman never went to see the child, but just looked inside the city.

The child plucked up his courage and said, "Sister, sister... do you know my mother?"

The woman wearing a hat covering her face smiled and said, "Sister? Am I so young? The generation is wrong, you should call me..."

Speaking of this, the woman's voice stopped abruptly because it was wrong to call her aunt, and it was not right to call her aunt. As for her aunt and aunt, they were not even close to each other.

After a moment of silence, the woman didn't know what to call her. She couldn't let him call her mother. She shook her head and said, "Sister, let's be sister. The seniority in the Central Plains River and Lake has never been cut and still messy. Situ Xuance Even older than Qin Qing, he was the one who decided to match Qin Qing and Bai Xiushang. Li Xuan was both Situ Xuance's junior brother, but he wanted to marry Qin Qing's daughter. Qin Qing became Li Xuandu's father-in-law and Bai Xiushang became If Li Xuandu’s mother-in-law starts from here, Qin Qing will be one generation older than Situ Xuance. If he doesn’t start from here, his uncle married his niece. How else can he discuss it? Let’s discuss it separately. .”

The child was confused and had no idea what the names of these people meant. He asked curiously, "Who are these people?"

The woman smiled and said, "They are family."

Then she asked again, "What's your name?"

The child was a little flattered, and looked at the city patrol soldiers who were walking back and forth around him but were unaware of anything, and tried to whisper: "My name is Urien."

The woman pondered for a moment and said, "Urien, have you ever seen your father?"

Urien shook his head.

The woman asked again, "Do you know what kind of person your father is?"

Urien had a figure on his face, raised his chest and said proudly: "Eh He said Eh Qi Ge is a great hero on the grassland!"

The woman smiled, not saying it was sarcasm or emotion. The child was sensitive, and he could hear a little unusual meaning from the laughter, and his face turned red.

The woman is not gentle and small-minded and will never coax a child in her life. She asked, "Do you think Lao Han on the grassland is a good person or a bad person?"

The child's face turned pale. Even though he was still young, he knew that he could not talk about old khan on the grassland. This was a sin of losing his head. He subconsciously looked around and saw that the soldiers patrolling the city still did not notice this. He breathed a sigh of relief and whispered: "Lao Khan is the highest eagle flying on the grassland, the messenger sent by Changshengtian to guard the grassland, and the god of the golden tent."

Hearing this old trick, the woman laughed again, but now she was sarcastic and unconcealed.

There are no gods in this world. Even the so-called earth immortals cannot be considered real immortals. Otherwise, how could they fight for power and profit?

The woman looked at the sky, as if she was talking to herself, and as if she was explaining to her child: "The poison, my honey, my grass, my treasure. The gods in your eyes may be the highest in the eyes of others. The devil who kills people like a terrible person, the great hero in your eyes, may be the evil person who wants to get rid of it soon. "

Speaking of this, the woman sighed and exhaled like clouds and mists, changing unsteadily, and it has not dissipated for a long time.

The child did not agree with this statement and argued forcefully: "Gods are gods, heroes are heroes. There is nothing you think I think."

The woman shook her head and said, "A sage in the Central Plains founded the study of mind. He advocated the truth that nothing is outside the heart. He asked his disciples: 'What is the heart of heaven and earth between heaven and earth?' The disciple replied, 'Man is the heart of heaven and earth. . 'Why can humans be the heart of heaven and earth? It's just because humans are spiritual and bright, filling the world between heaven and earth, until there is this spiritual and brightness. Humans only separate their bodies. 'My spiritual and brightness are the ghosts and gods of heaven and earth The Lord of the sky. If the sky is not as bright as me, who will look up to it? If the earth is not as bright as me, who will look down to it? If the ghosts and gods do not have my wisdom, who will see its good and good fortune? If the ghosts and gods do not have my wisdom, who will see its good and good fortune? If all things are separated from my spiritual wisdom, there will be no heaven, earth, ghosts, gods, and all things. My spiritual wisdom will be separated from heaven, earth, ghosts, gods, and all things, and there will be no my spiritual wisdom. In this way, the air will flow."

The child was completely confused. He could understand every word the fairy sister said, but after they were connected, he couldn't understand it.

The woman sighed: "Everything exists, but it has no meaning. For example, the snow, when there are people, it falls, and when there are no people, it still falls. The Golden Horde people regard it as a disaster because of the white disaster, and the Central Plains people say that auspicious snow indicates a good harvest. This is the meaning that human hearts give to everything. Without human hearts, everything still exists, but it cannot be perceived, so it has no meaning, which is equivalent to non-existence. The gods and heroes in your eyes are all given meanings by your spiritual wisdom, just like the different meanings given to snow by the Golden Horde people and the Central Plains people. Others have different positions from you, and the meanings given by spiritual wisdom are different. Gods and heroes are naturally different."

The child finally went from not understanding at all to half understanding.

The woman did not expect a child who grew up in the Golden Horde to understand the heart learning that emerged in Jiangnan. It would be better if she changed it to a child who inherited poetry and books from his family.

She said this to comfort herself.

It is easy to say that you are not happy with things or sad with yourself, but it is so difficult to do it.

There are four saints in Confucianism, one is called "Mercy", one is called "Fighting for Justice", one is called "Master of Principle", and one is called "Master of Mind". She read a lot of Confucian classics, and felt that the classics of this saint of mind were the most to her liking. This saint of mind was a man of this dynasty, and he had long since transcended the world. When the Jianghu forces supported the rebellion of Prince Ning, it was this Confucian saint of mind who personally suppressed the rebellion on behalf of Confucianism. Many big names in the Jianghu were defeated by this saint of mind, and a famous saying known to the world was born: "It is easy to destroy the thieves in the mountains, but it is difficult to defeat the thieves in the heart." It is a pity that these Jianghu tyrants were evaluated as "thieves in the mountains".

Because of this, officials in this dynasty are either people of Neo-Confucianism or people of Xinxue. Even the people of the world who follow Taoism are also influenced. For example, Li Xuandu was influenced by Zhang Suqing. During his years of silence, he was not practicing any skills, but introspecting and thinking about a way out. Otherwise, he would not have completely changed in just four years, from the impulsive Purple Mansion Sword Immortal to the Li Xuandu who is now scheming.

The woman murmured: "Li Xuandu has been thinking for four years and figured out his own path. He wants to walk the world with his feet. The road is not smooth. You have been thinking for so many years, but have you figured out the way to go back?"

The child widened his eyes and asked: "Sister, are you leaving?"

The woman shook her head: "I will not leave the royal court for the time being. I want to see what kind of storms this royal court can stir up, and whether these storms can overturn the big ship of the Golden Tent."

At this point, the woman grabbed the child's collar, and her figure slowly rose, leaving the top of the city, and went straight to the nine heavens.

At any time, the overall strength of the Central Plains is stronger than that of the Golden Horde. When the Golden Horde can threaten the Central Plains, it is always when there is internal strife in the Central Plains. In other words, the Golden Horde is only stronger in unity. If the Golden Horde also has chaos, it will not be able to threaten the Central Plains.

If Li Xuandu can really cause chaos in the royal court, she doesn't mind giving him a hand. It's not for the sake of a long-term plan or a grand ambition, but just to force that person out and teach him a lesson.

Before that, there is a key.

Li Xuandu can support the old Khan by himself until he dies.

Although it is a bit difficult, the woman thinks Li Xuandu can do it. After all, he is the one who has fought with her twice.
