The queue started moving and turned into a long dragon that was difficult to see at a glance. It took half an hour before the last soldier disappeared from sight.
On the side, the Anhe River moves forward very slowly. There are many large broken ice layers floating on the river. This river will continue to the southeast until it enters the Changhai Sea. During this period, it will pass a very important place. The former soldier of the Prince's Mansion, Cao Cao, joined the army of Song Yingxiong. The second son Song Zhiyi launched an army in Anjiang.
This prince is not Li He today, but Li Ju, Emperor Xuanyan who has not yet succeeded to the throne.
The Song family is a very famous noble family in Anjiang and has a high prestige in Anjiang. Song Zhiyi has been making friends since he was a child. He has an open-minded nature and is a confidant in the world. In this uprising, he brought support from all sides. Within half a year, it was like an autumn wind blowing over the ears. , has become a majestic force.
There are several deep mountains and ancient ridges between Hejing and Anjiang, and there are two states, Guide and Jinghe. They are far away, thousands of miles away, and close, but only a few states apart.
Xia Zhaoyi looked at the empty long road with all the people dispersed, and suddenly felt that when Daqian Li went to Hejing this time, the words "escape" and "abandon" were not as profound as the words "retreat".
Originally the master of the world, he will retreat and become second best, and then he will gradually become equal to those separatist forces that are still growing.
It's not impossible to regain the country, but it's too difficult.
It is easier to destroy than to rebuild. If we want to reunify the country, the obstacles we have to face are actually far greater than resisting foreign aggression and quelling internal strife.
Because of Li Qian's withdrawal, the vacant position of overlord will make more and more people want to compete. In the end, everyone who fights hard enough to be able to compete with the former overlord of the world will have terrible consequences. Ambition, determination, and cruelty are all fought out from the blood of thousands of corpses. That kind of cruelty is definitely not comparable to the people of the Li clan who have lived in peace for a long time and are born into the royal family.
Daqian, it’s gone. Xia Zhaoyi said, his voice was very light but very heavy.
Three hundred years ago, the ancestors of the Xia family came to Beijing together with Emperor Hongde. They ranked first in merit, were granted the title of king and prime minister, and created several prosperous years together.
Today, three hundred years later, the Li clan personally destroyed the Xia family who had done the most great service and fought for Daqian, leaving the Xia family to perish first in Daqian.
Those uncles and cousins who she didn't like very much in the past all shared the prosperity and loss of the Xia family, and died tragically at the hands of the Li family.
Although Da Qian is gone, the Li family is still there.
eye for eye.
The wing room where Xia Zhaoyi stayed temporarily was previously occupied by Li Ye and has been cleaned up.
The old man came back with Xia Zhaoyi. The courtyard was clean and bright, the snow was thick, and the whole area was flawless.
There were two people on the snow, Immortal Egret standing there with Zhi Li on his back.
As soon as he saw the two masters and apprentices coming back, Zhili jumped off the back of Immortal Bailu and shouted: Master!
He looked at the girl next to the old man who was shorter than him.
Zhi Li froze and said, "My senior sister?"
No matter how you look at it, you are smaller than yourself.
Junior Brother Xia Zhaoyi called.
The little boy is very tall, which means a young boy of thirteen or fourteen would believe that although he is sick and has a haggard and bloodless face, he has a very lively face.
Your second brother saved him, the old man said. The wound on his shoulder is now serious.
The second brother saved him? Xia Zhaoyi was surprised.
Um.
Is she really a senior sister at such a young age? Standing next to Master Bailu, Zhili asked quietly and confusedly.
I know nothing, said Master Bailu.
Zhili frowned and watched the girl approaching.
To be honest, the girl's outfit is actually very funny.
The clothes were very big and long, and her hair was messy, but even with such clothes on her, she didn't seem so funny.
Her eyes were so bright and clear, like mountains and rivers, peaceful and agile, with an indescribable wisdom and calmness, which was really inconsistent with her age.
Junior brother, the girl came closer and smiled.
Hello, senior sister, Zheli said. I have met my senior sister. Is her health feeling better?
Xia Zhaoyi shook her head. She was really ill this time and her body had been feeling uncomfortable.
I'm not feeling well either. Zhili pointed at his own wound. Both of us were injured. The one who is most worried and concerned must be Master. Master, thank you for your hard work.
As he spoke, Zhili raised his hand and bowed deeply to the old man.
Xia Zhaoyi was stunned and looked at his master.
The old man walked towards the house with a calm expression and said: I am not old.
Zhili looked at the old man's figure and frowned.
What did he do not do well? When Master sent someone to find him, he told him to talk as much as possible. If he had nothing to say, he should find something to say to liven up the atmosphere.
The senior sister looked at Xia Zhaoyi in confusion.
Come inside. Xia Zhaoyi said with a smile.
Immortal Master Bailu didn't stay long. After Fu Zhili came in, he respectfully left with the old man.
The old man was standing in the small hall, mixing medicine. Hearing this, he said: Thank you for your work.
Zhili watched Immortal Master Bailu lead the door and leave. He turned back his gaze and leaned to Xia Zhaoyi's side, saying: Senior sister, actually Master doesn't like others to be respectful to him.
Xia Zhaoyi smiled and said: What Master doesn't like is not respect. Who wouldn't like people who treat others politely?
Huh? Out of curiosity, what is it that Master doesn’t like?
It's about respect and inferiority, Xia Zhaoyi said.
Zhili was stunned for a moment and looked at the master in the small separate hall.
It turns out to be respect and inferiority.
He never knew how to describe this feeling. It turned out that what Master rejected was not others being respectful and polite to him, but respect and inferiority?
Xia Zhaoyi followed his gaze and looked at the master.
The old man is very tall and has always had a strong body. Unlike the old master Pei, who is full of immortal energy and has an immortal spirit, the master's clothes are casual and basically simple and concise.
Xia Zhaoyi's smile appeared in her eyes, and the smile on her brows was more joyful than the slight curve at the corners of her lips.
It's great to be able to meet Master again.
Master is still like this, lonely, cold and arrogant, aloof and world-weary, rarely talking or laughing.
No, I shouldn't say I'm world-weary.
Master actually loves this world very much. He loves the sun, moon, stars in the sky, the mountains, rivers and fields on the earth.
What Master hates is the human world.
The Three Cardinal Guidelines and Five Constant Virtues, the Three Obediences and the Four Virtues, and such an order of superiority and inferiority will disgust the Master.
Of course, this kind of respect and inferiority does not exist between their master and disciple.
Growing up, Xia Zhaoyi almost never kowtowed to anyone, including his father and master, because his master had never taught him anything.
At this time, the old man turned around with a tray full of bottles and cans.
He came over and put the tray on the table. The old man sat down under the watchful eyes of the two apprentices.
Let's talk about your second brother, the old man said. Seeing your reaction, you probably understand everything.
Xia Zhaoyi nodded: OK.
