Taiping Inn

The mountains of Beilong are majestic and majestic. They come out of Kunlun Mountain to the east, and the south and middle mountains are stretching and crisscrossing. The mountains are surrounded by each other, forming a series of good places for entering and blessing dragons. The west water on the side of the mountain enters the Longmen West River, and the east water on the side of the mountain enters Youzhou and flows eastward to the sea. Beim Mountain is the remnant of Nanshan Mountain, so its Feng Shui is excellent, which has attracted emperors, generals and ministers of all dynasties to build mausoleums here.

If the North Dragon is regarded as a giant dragon that walks into the river, then the dragon's tail is in Kunlun, the dragon's head is in Bohai Mansion on the coast of the East China Sea, the Five Elements Mountain is the reverse scale, and the Imperial Capital City is the finishing touch.

When Emperor Taizong of the Great Wei Dynasty built the imperial city, it was personally presided over by the contemporary local masters, and nearly a hundred experts from the geography were assisted by the side, making the entire imperial city the core of the imperial capital. If the imperial capital is the dragon eye of the northern dragon, then the imperial city is pupil. The two encirclements of the imperial capital are gathered here. If the formation of a large array can be fully opened, even the second catastrophe earth immortals cannot resist the powerful power of the large array and have to retreat.

However, this formation also has defects, and can only block people who have a sense of response to the heavenly way. That is, people with a cultivation level above the Heavenly Man Realm will be restricted by the formation, while others will not be restricted.

In other words, these formations can only be used to prevent a palace coup. If the army invades the imperial capital and cut off all kinds of connections inside and outside the imperial city, the formation will be destroyed without attack. What's more, the situation in the Five Elements Mountain and Bohai Prefecture is even more difficult, and it is very likely that the capital of the late emperor will fall in one step. Therefore, the Confucian Sect cannot rely on this formation to resist the Liaodong army, but instead has to defend the enemy outside the capital.

The difficulty of the Confucian Sect is that there is only Old Man Long, but there are Li Xuandu and Qin Qing in the Dao Sect. Last time, Old Man Long and Li Xuan fought to the point of both sides. If it were Li Xuandu this time Joining forces with Qin Qing, even if Old Man Long has another immortal object in his hand, it will be difficult to resist, unless Old Man Long can become a robbery immortal.

This decline did not occur in one or two days. In fact, this trend was seen as early as the era of the saints of Xinxue. It was just that the saints of Xinxue are powerful and forced to suppress the Taoist sect with their own strength. After the death of the saint of Xinxue, the Taoist sect fell into internal struggle again. It can be said that Zhang Jingxiu, Xu Wugui and others all died because of internal struggle. If the Taoist sect can unite, then there will not be only two people who come to the Imperial Capital today. , but six people.

The reason is also very simple.

First, the Confucian Sect has been the common ruler of the world for too long and too long. It is too comfortable and it is inevitable that internal corruption will be inevitable. Newcomers and young people will have a chance to make a comeback. It is not just a saint who can turn it around, like a pool of stagnant water. On the contrary, the Taoist sect has been in extremely fierce competition, with old people constantly dying and new people constantly making their way forward, just like living water, with many talents emerging.

The second is the further development of agricultural affairs, which was deliberately promoted by Taoist masters from all generations, including the local master Xu Wugui. Rice yield has increased compared with the previous period. Generally, rice fields produce two to three stones per mu, and in some places it can even reach five or six stones. At this time, high-yield crops such as corn and sweet potatoes were introduced from overseas. Corn is also called corn, and it has been planted in more than ten states. Sweet potatoes, also known as sweet potatoes, are commonly known as sweet potatoes. The yield is very high and can get thousands of kilograms per mu, so it spreads quickly. The reason why famines are everywhere and countless refugees is because of war and harsh policies, it has little to do with climate planting.

In addition, the planting of cotton and other crops has spread all over the world, and it is suitable for both the north and the south. Songjiang Prefecture in Jiangzhou and some places in Zhongzhou, Zhili, Qizhou, Jinzhou and Qinzhou.

The land is less than one million acres.

Under this circumstance, commerce has developed greatly, far better than all dynasties. As a result, marine trade has flourished, and a large amount of silver flowed in, making silver gradually replace copper coins and become the main currency. The taxes of the Great Wei court also changed from millions of taels of silver in the past to tens of millions of taels of silver today.

During this process, the Confucian Sect did not make any moves. Instead, the Taoist Sect seized the opportunity of trade mainly based on maritime trade and grew stronger. The Qingwei Sect and Butian Sect became wealthy and powerful people who could rival the country. With money, you can gather people and accomplish things. If Qin Qing was poor and innocent, why should he manage Liaodong? The Wei court has become the current situation, and the financial collapse is the primary reason.

Because of this, the world's talents continue to flow into the Taoist sect, and are tempered by the fierce competition within the Taoist sect, so a large number of outstanding people emerged. On the contrary, after finishing the old achievements left by the sages of the Heart Learning, Confucianism adhered to the rules and stood by themselves. This has led to today's disagreement.

The reason is that the various changes caused by the development of the world are the real trend.

After Xu Zaiyuan's entire army was wiped out, Jing Xiu's army was unobstructed and attacked the imperial capital. The three camps shrank into the city and were strictly guarded.

Qin Xiang and Zhao Bingyu's armies faced each other, and Li Xuan continued to lead the Taoist people to continue north.

At this time, the imperial capital city was martial law, the city gate was closed, and the Yuqing Garden outside the city was empty again. Li Xuandu and others still settled in the Yuqing Garden.

Li Xuandu returned to Yuqing Garden this time and felt a lot of emotion. This place is located north of the Imperial Capital City, about an hour away from Andingmen. It is not far away or close. After careful calculation, this is his third time in Beijing. The first two times he went to Beijing, the result was one bad and one good. He hoped to have a happy ending for the third time.

The Yuqing Garden is still the same as before, and many people from the Taoist sect have lived here, so there is no need to clean up, just follow the same situation.

Li Xuandu wrote a letter to Qin Qing, hoping that he could move to Yuqing Garden after he arrived and discuss something. In addition, it was also a coincidence that Bai Xiushang followed Li Xuandu and Qin Su followed Qin Qing, and they were able to reunite their own husband and wife.

After arranging these, Li Xuandu invited Zhang Luanshan over and sat opposite each other in Li Xuandu's study, across the desk.

Li Xuandu first said some polite words, and then changed the subject: "Brother An Ning is no longer at the age of not being confused, but he has not yet married. I wonder if there is a candidate for him?"

Zhang Luanshan was originally a smart person, but when he was a little stunned, he heard Li Xuandu's voice-over and asked with a smile: "Purple Mansion plans to be a matchmaker for me?"

Li Xuan smiled and said, "It's not a question of being a mediator, I just care about my friends, aren't you allowed?"

"Yes, of course." Zhang Luanshan joked, "How dare you not respond when the chief sect asks?"

Li Xuandu said: "Men are married when they are old, women are married when they are old. Although we practitioners have a very long lifespan and do not rush to decide on lifelong affairs when we are young and do not know anything, Brother An Ning is no longer confused, meaning that we encounter problems. If you can distinguish without doubt, then should you plan for your lifelong affairs, or should Brother An Ning plan to never marry like the old master?”

Zhang Luanshan pondered without saying a word.

As Li Xuandu said, he is already in his forties and can tell the difference when encountering things. He still doesn't understand what Li Xuandu means. Li Xuandu has already chosen it for him.

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

A suitable candidate. This is also reasonable. Li Xuan wants to bridge the various contradictions within the Taoist sect and further integrate the Taoist sect. Marriage is an extremely effective means. He himself, Qin Su, Qin Qing and Bai Xiushang, are both excellent. Examples of .

Zhang Luanshan couldn't help but guess who would Li Xuan choose as the marriage candidate? Zhang Luanshan's first reaction was Lu Yanbing, and he smiled bitterly in his heart. Li Xuan wouldn't even want him, a person who is not yet old, to be his brother-in-law, who is less than old, right?

In fact, now many people in the Taoist sect are speculating on who will Lu Yanbing’s family in the end. Li Xuan is not a saint and is quite generous and tolerant of his family. So as Li Xuandu’s sister, Lu Yanbing’s identity is quite good. After marrying Lu Yanbing, he became a relative with Li Xuan, and even the Qin family in Liaodong was related to each other, which was a step to reach the sky. Therefore, there are many people who care about Lu Yanbing, but Lu Yanbing's mind is mainly focused on Qingwei Sect, so he doesn't care much about these things.

In fact, Lu Yanbing understood very well. Everyone said that his parents ordered him to matchmakers. Now that his master Li Daoxu is gone, his elder brother is like his father, and Li Xuan is here to take care of this matter. Maybe Li Xuan respects her opinions, but she doesn't care about these details. She only hopes that her future husband can help her go further, rather than becoming her future husband's rank to heaven.

In other words, she hopes that her future husband will be more like his master Li Daoxu, rather than his uncle Li Daoxu.

No wonder Zhang Luanshan thought of Lu Yanbing, but Zhang Luanshan felt that the two were too different in age. In fact, he and Situ Xuance and Zhang Haishi could barely be considered as people of the same generation. When Situ Xuance visited Zhengyi Sect, he was present, although that At that time, he was still a little boy, and Situ Xuance was already famous all over the world, but Li Xuandu, Lu Yanbing and others were not born yet.

Just as Zhang Luanshan was thinking about how to refuse Li Xuandu’s kindness, he heard Li Xuandu say, “I wonder what Brother An Ning thinks about Senior Sister Shangguan of Yinyang Sect?”

Zhang Luanshan was stunned and felt unexpected.

Li Xuandu smiled and said, "If I remember correctly, Senior Sister Shangguan is also a thirty-something. Even if she is younger than Brother An Ning, she will not be much younger. As for her identity, she is the adopted daughter of the Earth Master. After obtaining the "Yin Yang Sword" and the "Tianyang Earth Yin Zhulong Seal" of the Earth Master, he is the leader of the Yin Yang Sect. Brother An Ning is the stepson of the old Tianshi Master. After obtaining the "Tian Shi Male and Female Sword" of the old Tianshi Master and the "Tian Shi Male and Female Sword" of the old Tianshi Master Yin', the gateway to master Zhengyi sect is a match for the best. "

Zhang Luanshan was caught off guard by Li Xuan and didn't know how to answer for a moment.

Li Xuandu continued: "The Earth Master once attacked the Dazhen Mansion, and the old Master attacked Beimian Mountain, and each other won and lost. In the end, the two seniors ascended to die together in Kunlun Cave Heaven, which is a rare fate. If Brother An Ning marrys Senior Sister Shangguan, that means that the Tianshi and the Earthshi are smiling and eliminated their grudges. The grudges and grudges of the past are written off from now on, and it is a good story that can be passed down in the future. I wonder what Brother An Ning wants to do?”

Only then did Zhang Luanshan understand Li Xuandu’s intention. In addition to the last Yuxu Sword Fighting, the previous Yuxu Sword Fighting was co-hosted by the contemporary Tianshi and Earth Masters. In a sense, the Heavenly Master and the Earth Master represent the right path and the evil path respectively. If the Heavenly Master descendant and the Earth Master descendant shake hands and make peace, it means that the dispute between good and evil that lasts for thousands of years will completely disappear. Return to Taoism.
