Taiping Inn

Imperial capital.

A few days ago, there was a riot in the imperial capital, causing panic. It is said that many rebels were arrested, and they were all beheaded and displayed in public.

People love to watch beheading the heads. No matter who has the heads, there are always people watching and cheering, which is really lively for a few days.

When Lou Xinqing returned from Zhongnan Mountain, the rebellion disappeared overnight, as if it had never existed. No one mentioned it again. The wanted order posted at the city gate was revealed. The heads hanging on display were also removed.

No need for others to say more, the Qingluan Guard General's Office knew that the wind direction of the above had changed. News came from above that the Empress Dowager planned to negotiate peace with Mr. Qingping, and had offered many generous conditions, and Mr. Qingping seemed to want it too. If you agree, the rebellion will not be a rebellion.

So the noisy imperial capital city returned to its former peace.

In a blink of an eye, it is the third day of the October lunar month. It is ugly, the moon is covered with sky and the shadows of trees are swaying.

A man and a woman were walking on the official road outside the imperial capital.

The woman is older, dressed up in a woman, and the man is young, and she is still a half-year-old boy. The two of them are together, like a mother and son.

These two people finally arrived at the Imperial Capital today because they were delayed for a while because of other things on the road.

Judging from the ancestral home, Zhang Baizhou is a native of Jiangling Prefecture, Jingzhou, and is considered a southerner. But he was born in the imperial capital. He was a native of the Northern People in both behavior and accent. Later, I went to Shuzhou and spent my youth in Shuzhou.

Now he returned to the imperial capital from Shuzhou, looking at the dark and crawling beast under the night, like a crawling beast. The memories of his childhood surged into his heart, and he felt mixed feelings.

Zhang Baizhou saw the boundless wheat stubble on both sides of the official road and what he saw along the way. He suddenly remembered what Li Xuan said to him. At the same time, his uncle's voice seemed to ring in his ears, reciting the "Book of Songs" "The King's Wind": "That millet is free, the seedlings of the millet. The movements are slow and swaying, and the center is shaking. Those who know me say I am worried, and those who don't know me say I want what I want."

No matter what, Zhang Baizhou is from a scholarly family after all, and the blood of his ancestors flows in his body. The scholarly anger is stirring in his heart. He suddenly feels an impulse that he wants to complete his uncle's unfinished career, just like Li Xuan Du is doing that.

Lan Xuanshuang did not have the impulse of Zhang Baizhou. For her, the Imperial Capital City was unfamiliar. She had never been to the Imperial Capital, and she did not know the Imperial Capital. She had no grudges, love and hatred with the Imperial Capital, and had no connection with it.

But she knew what this city meant. It was the center of the world. It was like the center of a spider web. All spider silks gathered here. If you master it, you could touch the entire spider web. Everyone wants to occupy it. Spiders here, not flying insects thrown into the web.

This is a world of fame and fortune, and also a place of life and death.

When they arrived at the city gate, the two stopped and Zhang Baizhou asked softly: "Aunt Lan, how can we get over?"

On the way to the imperial capital, the two met Wang Tianxiao from the Yin-Yang Sect. After the Dazhen Mansion's change that day, Song Zheng died and Shangguan Wan surrendered, leaving only Wang Tianxiaoru, a dog in a panic family, hiding in the east. At first, he was hiding in Song Zheng, and later he was hiding in Li Xuandu. Who would have thought that a famous Ming official a year ago, but a year later he became a betrayal dog.

When Wang Tianxiao recovered from his injuries, he wanted to continue to lead the remaining troops to revive Yin-Yang Sect, but he did not expect that the other Ming officials had been scared by Li Xuan and did not dare to oppose Li Xuan again. They had already fled, and they did not know. Wherever. Although Wang Tianxiao sent a few people with the unique secret technique of Yin and Yang Sect several times, the few people never responded, as if they were sinking into the sea. Later, Wang Tianxiao heard about Zhongnan Mountain. At this time, there was a person in charge on the mountain named Xu, known as Xu Jiuye. He immediately knew that this person was Xu Jiu. This person made a public appearance in Zhongnan Mountain, which meant that the disciples of King Qi had completely surrendered to Li. Xuandu.

Wang Tianxiao was both shocked and angry, but he could not imagine it. Seeing that the Yin-Yang Sect was divided into pieces and became a mess, his ambitions finally became empty, and all he wanted was immortality.

Under such circumstances, Wang Tianxiao planned to sneak back to Beimang Mountain and search for a place to practice in Beimang Mountain. After all, Beimang Mountain was the foundation of the Yin-Yang Sect and Zaoge Sect in the past, and Wang Tianxiao was very familiar with this place.

By chance, just the day before leaving, Zhang Baizhou and Lan Liu accidentally broke into Wang Tianxiao's seclusion, and were captured by Wang Tianxiao, which attracted Lan Xuan. frost.

Lan Liu is Lan Xuanshuang's disciple, and Zhang Baizhou was personally entrusted to Lan Xuanshuang by Li Xuandu. In addition, Lan Xuanshuang has regarded Beimeng Mountain as his own territory. Naturally, Lan Xuanshuang cannot tolerate this matter. Wang Tianxiao fought hard.

Both of them are the great masters of the realm of creation of heaven and man. Lan Xuanshuang thought she had a backer and was not afraid. On the contrary, Wang Tianxiao was afraid of attracting Li Xuandu or other masters, and did not dare to fight Lan Xuanshuang in a life-and-death battle with him. It was obvious at first glance that Lan Liu was just a subjugated monster, so he gave up Lan Liu and fled Beimian Mountain with Zhang Baizhou as a hostage.

Lan Xuanshuang followed closely behind, and the two chased and fled, left Zhongzhou and entered Qizhou, and then went from Qizhou to Zhili. The two fought several times, but Wang Tianxiao was indeed no less than Bai Xiushang's high position. People, Lan Xuanshuang was also a former pseudo-immortal, and should not be underestimated. In addition, Wang Tianxiao was not familiar with Lan Xuanshuang's methods and suffered some small losses. So he used Zhang Baizhou as bait and ambushed Lan Xuanshuang once.

When Lan Xuanshuang was rescued by Zhang Baizhou, she was attacked by Wang Tianxiao, which turned out to be a situation where Lan Xuanshuang took Zhang Baizhou and Wang Tianxiao followed behind to chase him. However, Wang Tianxiao was afraid of Li Xuandu after all. And other masters who have surrendered to Li Xuandu, they dared not pursue them to the end and finally chose to retreat.

During this process, Zhang Baizhou and Lan Xuanshuang became much closer. Zhang Baizhou no longer called Lan Xuanshuang Lady, but called Aunt Lan. Lan Xuanshuang was also happy to be with this little girl who was valued by Li Xuan. The guy has a good relationship and recognizes the title of "Aunt Lan".

Li Xuan doesn’t like factions, but he has to admit that there are factions where there are people. The young people he valued had already become factions without realizing it.

Shen Changsheng and Ning Yi have a friendship, Zhou Shuning and Shi Wuyue have a good relationship, Pei Yu and Li Feiyan have a good relationship, and Zhang Baizhou and Lan Xuanshuang are close. Ning Yi represents Taiping Sect, Shi Wuyue represents Xuannv Sect, Li Feiyan represents Qingwei Sect, and Lan Xuanshuang represents Zaoge Sect. Behind these four major sects are other sects, and different factions are gradually formed.

For example, Lan Xuanshuang, Zhang Baizhou was close to her and she was in good condition with Shangguan Wan, so Zhang Baizhou would definitely be intimate with Shangguan Wan, and the three of them gradually became a faction. Li Xuandu integrated all forces in the Taoist sect, and these young people became representatives of one side.

Perhaps many years later, these young people will leave Li Xuandu's wing protection and become important figures in the world, and will have another fight. At that time, I wonder if they would still remember Li Xuandu’s original intention of integrating Taoist sects.

At this moment, I heard the sound of horse hooves and wheels, and it seemed that many people were coming.

Zhang Baizhou and Lan Xuanshuang both stopped.

After waiting for a while, more than ten guards came over with a carriage.

Zhang Baizhou was not afraid, and frowned and shouted, "Who!"

This shout made the carriage stop slowly, and the entourages surrounding the carriage also pressed down on their waists, as if they were facing a great enemy.

Lan Xuanshuang didn't say anything. She looked up and saw a man and a horse riding alone, then turned over and dismounted, carrying a lantern in one hand and a horse in the other.

Zhang Baizhou leaned over slightly, reached out to hold the hilt of the sword behind him, and shouted, "Stop!".

"It's me." The other party's man still walked towards him with his horse, keeping his pace.

Zhang Baizhou was stunned. This voice turned out to be a woman? He asked subconsciously, "Who are you?"

At this moment, the visitor had approached, his face was illuminated by a lantern, and his skin was as white as snow. It was Shangguan Wan.

"It's you." Zhang Baizhou said in surprise.

Shangguan Wan glanced at Zhang Baizhou and asked curiously: "Do you recognize me?"

Zhang Baizhou hesitated for a moment and nodded, "I have seen you in Jianxiu Mountain, and it was Xu Da who accompanied you."

Shangguan Wan thought for a while, "I remembered that you are the boy who is following Xu Qi. I didn't expect you to recognize me, so you have a lot of eyesight."

Zhang Baizhou felt a little embarrassed. Shangguan Wan was wearing a black hat when he was climbing the mountain that day. Of course, he did not recognize Shangguan Wan from his face, but from other places. Although the two only met one time, he had a deep memory of the creamy white wrist that Shangguan Wan accidentally revealed during his walking day. It was rare in his life and was extremely stunning. Today, he accidentally saw Shangguan Wan's hand wrist again. She was recognized by a stranger.

Because of this, Zhang Baizhou couldn't explain how he recognized Shangguan Wan. Fortunately, Shangguan Wan didn't care about these things and had already greeted Lan Xuanshuang, "Sister Lan, I've been waiting for a long time."

Lan Xuanshuang apologized: "I met Wang Tianxiao on the way, and I wasted a lot of time. I was tired of waiting for my sister for a long time, and I had to bother my sister out of the city to greet her."

Hearing the name "Wang Tianxiao", Shangguan Guan's smile froze slightly, and he instantly returned to normal, saying, "Today, it's not only me to welcome my sister, but also Sister Yuying."

Zhang Baizhou was stunned again, "Who is Yuying?"

He subconsciously looked at the carriage, and saw that under the light of the fire, the carriage had red wheels and red curly and had a roof, which was the princess’s rule.

He suddenly understood. Isn’t Yuying the eldest princess of Xuanzhen, Master Yuying! Could it be that Princess Xuanzhen is sitting in the carriage?

At this moment, Shangguan Wan stuffed the reins into Zhang Baizhou's hand and smiled and said, "We women went to the car to talk, I feel wronged that you are riding a horse."

After saying that, Shangguan Wan pulled Lan Xuanshuang toward the carriage together. Lan Xuanshuang turned her head and gave Zhang Baizhou a look.

Zhang Baizhou understood and turned his back and followed behind.
