Nothing more sorrow than death in the heart.

Twenty years ago, the scholar in white had become a powerful minister below one person, but the woman in green who was obsessed with him married a wife and lived a simple life.

Yuwen Tianlu sighed and drank the wine all over, his expression full of loneliness.

Xiao Jinyan comforted, "Senior, don't blame yourself. Maybe one day Mrs. Zun's mind will change?"

Yuwen Tianlu asked, "What's the solution?"

Xiao Jinyan was about to say that I was a master of picking up girls, but suddenly he changed his mind that it might be inappropriate to say this sentence in front of him, so he changed his words, "Miss Yuwen is now in the Western Region. When the matter is done, seniors can bring her here with him. Maybe it works?"

Yuwen Tianlu sneered, "You kid won't have any ideas, right?"

Xiao Jinyan raised his hand and said, "I am thinking about my seniors everywhere. When Mrs. Zun saw you with great hardship, she raised her daughter with her own hands. Maybe she felt weak and changed her mind?"

"Hmph, it's slick. How could Li Chuntie have a junior brother like you!"

Speaking of Dengwenyuan, Xiao Jinyan remembered that the momentum between Li Chuntie and Yuwen Tianlu was like water and fire. This is probably the biggest obstacle for him to pursue Yuwen Shuang in the future. He asked tentatively, "Grandmaster, you and my senior brother are in the capital, right?"

"The way is different."

Yuwen Tianlu said disdainfully, "Li Chuntie is just a mad dog that everyone can bite. It almost ruined my layout for many years. Sooner or later, I will have a fight with him."

He saw Xiao Jinyan bowing his head and asking with a smile, "If I asked you to choose between my daughter and your senior brother, which side would you choose to stand on?"

Xiao Jinyan said, "Only children can do multiple-choice questions, and both adults choose."

"Don't be greedy as a human being."

Xiao Jinyan smiled, "Why are you not greedy? Besides, the senior said that the person I want to live in the future is your daughter, not you. At worst, you can never interact with each other until you die."

Yuwen Tianlu said, "Have I said it?"

Xiao Jinyan's words are concluded.

...

Not long after Xiao Jinyan left, a team of men in black came to remove the bodies of the Axe Gang. More than a dozen people from the Axe Gang died in Li Ji and Chen Bao. Li Ergou was so scared that he was afraid that the Axe Gang would come to seek revenge. However, a while later, news came from the poop that the Axe Gang was cleaned and expelled from Yin Yang.

Yuwen Gui follows Yuwen Tianlu all year round. He does not need to be ordered by the general governor, so he will handle such small matters properly. Even the neighbors watching him sent people to come to the door to "apologize" to avoid saying anything from the other party.

However, before the owner spoke, Li Er's wine shop did not dare to make a decision. After the handling was completed, Xu Yang came to report, "Today, a team of Northern Zhou merchants came to Yinyang City. They heard that they were horse dealers outside the border. The city gate guards saw these people having calluses and showing fierce faces, so they kept their minds and ordered people to spread the news here."

Xu Yang has been in Yinyang for many years, and his eyes are everywhere in the city, from the people in the officialdom to the brothels and gambling houses, many eyes and ears have been inserted into his eyes.

"Where are the people?" Yuwen Gui asked.

"After they went to the horse market to sell horses, they moved into the house of the Northern Zhou Chamber of Commerce in Baihufang, and never came out again. This house was originally a yard of Li Xiancheng's outer room and was sold to the Northern Zhou Chamber of Commerce three years ago."

Yuwen Gui pondered for a while and said, "The master is indeed as expected. The bait he sprinkled was so soon. He didn't expect someone to take the bait. He sent someone to keep an eye on them. It would be better to find someone to sneak in, spy on the news, and find out their purpose of their actions. Everyone should investigate in detail if they enter and out."

Xu Yang said, "They were not here for the Grand Governor, are they?"

Yuwen Gui looked at him with great meaning, "The Grand Commander's martial arts are superb. Can any dog ​​or cat be dealt with? Even if Helian Liangbi comes in person, he will definitely not be his opponent."

Xu Yang said, "I'm worried too much."

"It's good to be cautious after all."

...

It was already evening when I got home.

Li Bufan was cooking porridge. He saw the two of them smelling alcohol, and went up to sniff, saying, "You can find the Chishui wine that Li Ji has made, really know the goods!"

He served a bowl of porridge, made another plate of peanuts and pickles, and handed it to Yuwen Tianlu, saying, "Senior, you have nothing to do tonight. Let me pass on a few sword techniques. Tomorrow, the City Lord's Mansion will recruit Baima Yicong. I have asked someone to sponsor and report it to you, so I don't want to waste this opportunity."

"Bai Horse is in charge?"

Li Bufan said: "Not bad! This is what the old city lord stayed at that time, and the recruitment is extremely strict. Yi Cong must be a local from Yinyang, and there must be more than three households to pass the school entrance examination to enter. Baima Yi Cong obeys the city lord's mansion and shoulders the responsibility of guarding Yinyang. In Yinyang City, being able to become a Baima Yi Cong is the supreme glory.

Li Mazi on the street was so poor that she couldn't even say she was a wife. After becoming a white horse, all the people who came to propose marriage broke through the threshold. Even Li Damazi, who used to bow down and didn't dare to look at him. Now when he went out, he was just looking up with his chest and raised his head and arrogantly. I heard that he had twisted his waist yesterday. He just went to deliver eight eggs in the afternoon and went to see him."

Xiao Jinyan nodded, "So that's it."

Li Bufan said again, "These five thousand etiquettes are divided into four guards of Dragon, Tiger, Leopard, Wolf. The Dragon Cavalry is the personal guard of the city lord's mansion, and the elite of the white horse. I heard that the old city lord's ashes will reach Yinyang. If he can enter the Dragon Cavalry, he may be able to leave the city to welcome the old city lord back to his hometown!" Speaking of this, Li Bufan sighed, "Oh, I'm afraid I can't do anything."

Xiao Jinyan estimated the itinerary of Zhao Langjiang and others. It was almost the last three or two days, so he said, "It's okay, if you can't enter, I'll take you out of the city to greet you."

Li Bufan said, "I heard that before his death, the old city lord passed the sword technique to a man named Zhao Langjiang. This time he traveled thousands of miles to escort the old city lord back to his hometown. Just for this friendship, I, Li Bufan, should respect him three times!"

Xiao Jinyan smiled and said, "Then you have to prepare your wine."

Li Bufan said discouragedly, "It's a pity that even if you have money, you have nowhere to buy wine."

Yuwen Tianlu suddenly said, "Why did I hear that the people from your city lord's mansion don't want the ashes of King Jindao to return to their hometown?"

Li Bufan said with anger, "The old city lord was forced to leave Yinyang and left with a knife. For twenty years, he still protected us. Li Xiancheng's small weapon cannot represent our Yinyang people!"

When Xiao Jinyan heard Li Bufan call Li Xiancheng his name but not the city lord, he knew that the current Yinyang City Lord was not very popular in the city.

Li Bufan seemed to be angry and said, "There is also the Yinyang Prefect, who is a dog official. The old city lord Luoye returns to his roots and he doesn't work hard. In order to flatter Yuwen Tianlu, he built a sacred temple for him. He even demolished the Ten Mile Pavilion. The man has not died yet, and even the ancestral hall has been built. It's really a big deal! Yuwen Jingcheng was just a defeated general under the old city lord back then!"

Xiao Jinyan looked at Yuwen Tianlu. This powerful governor, in the eyes of the Southern Barbarians and Western Chu people, was a demon-like existence. In the capital, he sneezes, which made Sijiu City tremble, but in the hearts of the people of Yinyang, his status is really not an ordinary low.

Seeing that Yuwen Tianlu was as if nothing had happened, he couldn't help but secretly praised the expectant father-in-law. However, he thought again that he had been criticized in the court over the years. If he had no such ambition, he might have been angry to death without waiting for the enemy to take action.

While he was thinking about it, Yuwen Tianlu suddenly asked, "What were you talking about just now?"

Li Bufan said, "Tell me about the defeated general Yuwen Tianlu under the old city lord. By the way, it's not too early. Senior, please pass on my two sword techniques."

Yuwen Tianlu frowned slightly, "Your martial arts foundation is too shallow, I will pass on you a set of internal skills and mental methods first."

Li Bufan clapped his hands and said, "Thank you for your accomplishment!"

Yuwen Tianlu said, "You guys have listened to it. I will only say the mantra once. Close your eyes slightly, your shoulders are flat to the ground, your heels are close to the ground, your mind has no distractions, and you will be a thought, and you will be a thought. This will be repeated hundreds of times, which will be a miraculous effect."

Li Bufan followed the mantra and asked, "Senior, what's the use of this mantra?"

"Let you dream."

"Senior isn't it a joke, is it?"

Yuwen Tianlu's face sank, "Do you see me like a joke?"

"But I'm not sleepy."

"I'll help you!"

He slapped Li Bufan with one palm and slapped Li Bufan fainted. Xiao Jinyan thought he was murderous, but Li Bufan turned over and snores came in a moment.

...

Qinglongfang, the city lord's mansion.

Li Xiancheng paced back and forth in the room and fell into silence. In the study, several chiefs of staff and people who talked about the three major gangs in the city were silent.

On the table are two passbooks copied from the city gate guards, which contain Tang Dabao and Yu Jingcheng, which record the information of the two people's road guides, the purpose of entering the city and the place where they live.

He had known about the Axe Gang being destroyed.

After being the city lord for twenty years, although the entire Yinyang City is not just a piece of iron barrel, the movements in the city cannot escape his eyes. From Xu Yang's performance in the past two days, he could guess that Yuwen Tianlu had entered the city.

From the first day when Xu Yang came to Yin Yang, he learned about the other party's identity, but was just collecting information for the Bice Organization. Over the years, Xu Yang's grocery store has not made any extraordinary moves.

Today, the Axe Gang went to Li Ji and Chen Bao, and the back foot was destroyed. When he thought about it, he knew that it was Xu Yang who did it. And Yu Jingcheng, who entered the pass, was most likely Yuwen Tianlu.

Li Xiancheng did not remind Cao Zhi to call him.

When this fence-bearer heard that Yuwen Tianlu was coming, he immediately became uneasy. He even ran to the city lord's mansion to ask for money and build a temple. It was not necessary to keep a person with a crooked butt.

Twenty years have passed.

Over the past twenty years, he, the city lord, has been very depressed. He has to obey the orders of the court outside and pay New Year's money to the capital every year. In the city, Li Qiuyi's reputation has always been suppressed by the golden sword, even if he leaves with a knife or dies in a foreign land.

Everyone knows Li Qiuyi, the lord of Yinyang City, but he does not know that Li Xiancheng is Li Xiancheng.

He has been smart since childhood, has extraordinary talent, and is also outstanding in the clan. However, from beginning to end, he always appears small under the light of the golden sword Li Qiuyi.

Li Xiancheng was unwilling to accept it.

He wanted to make a shocking career. His ambition was not the Lord of Yinyang, but the King of Yinyang. Especially a few months ago, after he met the noble man who was willing to work in secret, he made him more determined in his beliefs.

If it were before, he still had some concerns.

After all, the Western Expedition Army was in Hengduan Mountain west of Yinyang. If he acted rashly, the Western Expedition Army could tilt Yinyang City within two days.

However, since the Western Chu coup last year, when Chu Bieli's army was approaching and restrained the Western Army, he saw hope.

As long as the Western Army was defeated, Li Xiancheng had the opportunity to take advantage of the troubled waters, led the nineteen cities of Yinyang to escape from the Ming Dynasty, and became the fourth largest force outside the Ming Dynasty, Chu and Zhou Dynasty.

At that time, the King of Golden Swords and the Lord of Yinyang City were nothing.

He wants to hide his yang for thousands of years and remember him Li Xiancheng.

King Yinyang!

Over the years, he has secretly cultivated power. The five thousand white horse righteousness stipulated by the Ming Dynasty have long become a piece of waste paper. The five thousand righteousnesses are just those stationed inside and outside Yinyang City.

In addition, he was secretly stationed 10,000 troops in the deep mountains. The "bandits" on Yinyang Business Road were also his forces, but there was some accident not long ago, causing heavy losses to the three bandits.

So he urgently issued the order of the city lord to recruit soldiers from Yi.

If the Ming Dynasty and Western Chu begin to war, the nobleman from the north also promises to send troops to help. As long as the Ming Dynasty is defeated, Li Xiancheng will have a chance.

Thinking of this, he excitedly crushed a teacup.

"City Lord, these two people are currently living in the home of Li Bufan, the gatekeeper of Xuanwufang. Li Bufan has signed up for tomorrow's Yicong School."
