The bearded man nodded and said, "The third junior brother really doesn't know, and he himself practices in this way and has no reservations, but he has never encountered such a problem."

"Third Junior Brother?" Gao Bufan looked at the bearded guest in surprise, who nodded and said: "The real name of Han Laoshi mentioned by the Third Brother is actually Han Qingyuan. He and I were once the same sect, but later we both left the sect.

"

Gao Bufan couldn't help but suddenly realized that at first he had suspected that the Qiu-bearded guest knew the man in black with a grimace who taught him the technique. It turned out to be true. However, Han Laoshi was the man in black with a grimace and was also the younger brother of the Qiu-bearded guest, which was beyond his expectation.

.

But when he thought about it carefully, he felt that it was reasonable. When he first met Han Laoshi and his wife in Liu'an Village, he felt strange. Why could Han Laoshi, who was so honest and arrogant and couldn't beat a dull guy with three sticks, marry such a beautiful woman?

Xiyu's wife, and Han Laoshi can also ride and shoot. All signs indicate that Han Laoshi is a person with "stories".

The bearded guest glanced at Gao Bufan and asked, "Third brother, don't you blame the eldest brother for hiding this matter?"

Gao Bufan shook his head calmly: "Since eldest brother didn't say it, there should be a reason not to say it."

The bearded guest sighed slightly: "It was indeed difficult to say it before, but now it doesn't hurt to say it. My third junior brother is talented and intelligent, with a high level of understanding. Master has high hopes for him. Unfortunately, he later became a victim of the dispute between Buddhism and Taoism."

"Why?" Gao Bufan asked hurriedly: "Is it related to Xiaoyun's mother?"

The bearded man nodded: "Xiao Yun's mother's name is Bai Ying, and her Buddhist name is Jueyi. She was originally a female nun in Bailian Temple, and she was a rising star in the entire Buddhist sect.

The fight at home is more intense than it is now

Not only are the masters of the older generation fighting openly and covertly, but even the best of the younger generation are also competing with each other. The third junior brother and Bai Ying have become rivals. Not only do they often sit and talk, but they also compete in martial arts. The two are evenly matched, with no winner or loser."

Gao Bufan was moved in his mind and asked: "Could it be that the two of them didn't know each other without fighting, but in the end, sparks sparked, and then they got married and the couple returned home?"

The bearded guest laughed dumbly and said: "Third brother, you have quite a lot of words. That's roughly it. Third junior brother and Bai Ying got to know each other from fighting, from fighting to getting to know each other, and then falling in love, but paper can't contain the fire in the end.

, the relationship between the two was still exposed.

At that time, less than twenty years had passed since Emperor Wu of the Northern Zhou Dynasty exterminated Buddhism. Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty Yang Jian had just established the Great Sui Dynasty, and his attitude towards Buddhism and Taoism was not yet clear, so the fight between Buddhism and Taoism was particularly fierce. Both Buddhism and Taoism

In order to increase his influence over Yang Jian, there were often casualties in the competition.

Now, coupled with the fact that some well-intentioned people deliberately sow discord, such as the fake landlord Wei Yuansong whom the elder brother caught last time, the Buddhist and Taoist families at that time were really incompatible, and it was a life-and-death struggle. Under such an environment,

, how can the third junior brother and Bai Ying have a good outcome?"

"Then what happened next? Were Han Qingyuan and Bai Ying both disabled in martial arts?" When Gao Bufan woke up, the man with a grimace in black told him that he had problems with his practice, maybe because of his body.

I am not like him who once became a "waste".

The bearded man nodded and said: "The third brother's guess is right. The third junior brother and Bai Ying also knew that they could not be tolerated by the two families, and they could not get the permission of the sect, so they went far away and remained anonymous. After a few years, they actually stabilized.

She lived a wonderful life and gave birth to a lovely daughter, but the good times did not last long, and the Buddhist and Taoist families still came to visit her, and the person leading the Buddhist team was the old nun Hui Ai!"

Gao Bufan frowned and said, "Old nun Huinai has a hot temper and a fierce personality. This is bad!"

"It's true. Old nun Hui Ai almost killed the third junior brother and his wife. Fortunately, he was stopped by Master Huijing who arrived later. However, due to the pressure, the third junior brother and his wife were finally killed.

In martial arts, they were expelled from their respective masters. Their three-year-old daughter, Han??, had excellent muscles and bones. She was also taken aback by Master Huijing, who brought her back to the mountain gate to train her since she was a child. She replaced her mother Bai Ying as the successor of Bailian'an.

."

Gao Bufan was moved in his heart and said, "Is this Han... the same as Bai Yunshang?"

"That's right!" The bearded man nodded.

Gao Bufan couldn't help but lost his mind, and now everything was connected. Back then, he heard the villagers of Liu'an Village mention that Han Laoshi also had a daughter who was abducted by traffickers when she was three years old. Later, she met Baiyun for the first time on the banks of the Liao River.

Chang, he felt that this girl looked like Aunt Han at least sixty-seven times, and he dared to admit that Bai Yunshang was really her daughter.

Alas, it seems that Han Laoshi really has a story, but this story is really a bit tragic.

The bearded guest was such a free and uninhibited person, and he couldn't help but sigh again at this time: "The third junior brother and his wife were seriously injured, and their kung fu was abolished and they were expelled from the school. Their only daughter was also taken away. The following life was miserable.

It would be better to die, but the third junior brother is indeed a genius. He actually combined the Buddhist and Taoist martial arts together, broke them down and then established them again, and he re-trained in extremely high martial arts, and he is getting stronger and stronger."

Gao Bufan couldn't help but show admiration: "It's amazing. Even if a person with a strong heart is defeated, he will not be knocked down. Pain and setbacks will only make him stronger."

The bearded man nodded with deep understanding: "Third Junior Brother is indeed a very strong-minded person and will not give up until he achieves his goal."

"Then what is the purpose of Han Qingyuan teaching me the skills?" Gao Bufan was shocked. He realized that the man in black with a grimace told him that the purpose of teaching him the skills was to use his own strength to accomplish something. Now he saw that

Come on, does Han Qingyuan want him to destroy the Buddha? Or does he want to take revenge by destroying Bailian Temple?

The bearded guest seemed to have guessed what Gao Bufan was thinking, and shook his head and said: "Don't worry, third brother. Third junior brother probably doesn't want to destroy the Buddha. You'd better ask him directly then. Bi Jing doesn't have to hide his identity anymore.

With the protection of Qi State, even the Buddhist and Taoist families would not dare to come to persecute their family anymore, except for idiots like Hui Nai Lao Ni."

"My eldest brother left the Taoist sect back then, presumably because he was tired of the fight between the Buddhist and Taoist families, right?" Gao Bufan said.

The bearded man smiled calmly this time and said, "There are also reasons for this, but the main reason is that I already told you last time."

The two chatted for a while and then opened the door and walked out. Everyone waiting outside breathed a sigh of relief when they saw this.

"Husband!" Changsun Wugu, Dou Xianniang and Cui Shirou came forward with red eyes and worried.

Gao Bufan smiled and comforted: "Don't worry, I'm fine, it's just some skin trauma."

As soon as Gao Bufan raised his head, he met a cold gaze. Yang Qingruo was standing in the distance in green clothes, with blood stains still on the gauze covering his face. When the latter saw Gao Bufan looking at him, he immediately turned his pretty face to one side.

His eyes seemed a little colder, and his jealousy was probably overturned.

The eldest grandson Wugou looked at his words, sighed secretly in his heart, and said softly: "Husband, Manager Qing has been ordered by the emperor. It is said that there is an imperial edict to be passed on to you, husband."

Gao Bufan's heart moved and he walked towards Yang Qingruo...

The courtyard wall of the Duke of Qi's Mansion has been repaired, and the people below are still very efficient. In the meeting hall at this moment, a group of ministers headed by Wei Zheng and Du Ruhui have gathered, and everyone is discussing an important matter, that is, whether to

According to the order, he sent troops to attack Li Mi and relieve the siege of Luoyang.

After a heated discussion, everyone finally agreed to send troops, not because they were "cheap", but because they thought it would be profitable.

Where is the benefit?

First, as long as you send troops, you can be granted the title of King of Qi. This was granted by Yang Guang, the de jure emperor, and not by the self-proclaimed "Grasshead King". It was genuine and valuable, and he could justifiably despise other "Grasshead Kings" in the future.

”.

Secondly, Li Mi will be beaten sooner or later. Now that the emperor's edict is in hand, it is just and justified, occupying the moral system point, and obeying the imperial edict to punish disobedient officials.

Third, Luoyang is a big piece of fat. If you kill Li Mi, you can eat this fat. Only a fool will not do it.

How could talented people with outstanding vision such as Wei Zheng, Du Ruhui, Changsun Wuji and Wen Yanbo miss such a good thing, so they almost unanimously supported sending troops to attack Li Mi.

Just to send troops to attack Li Mi, there is an issue that cannot be avoided, that is, sending troops from Qi State to the Central Plains south, they must pass through Dou Jiande's territory, which is a bit troublesome. Although the two families have an alliance and are related by marriage, if the army comes from the other side,

After all, borrowing roads on the territory is controlled by others, and maybe you will be ripped off by Lao Dou.

Therefore, this problem must be resolved first. Gao Bufan felt that it was necessary to talk to the cheap father-in-law personally.

…………

The Chinese New Year is coming in a few days, and it's snowing again in the sky. Several winter plum trees in the courtyard are in full bloom, and the faint fragrance of plum blossoms drifts into the Nuan Pavilion, refreshing the heart and mind.

At this time, the charcoal fire in the hot pot is blazing and warm, and the broth in the hot pot is milky white, gurgling and churning out an alluring aroma.

Gao Bufan and Yang Qingruo sat across from each other, but the atmosphere was a bit cold.

"Qingruo, come here, eat some mutton to warm yourself up." Gao Bufan put a piece of mutton into the bowl in front of Yang Qingruo and thoughtfully added sauce.

Yang Qingruo was still dressed in Tsing Yi and a veil, showing only half of her elegant and charming face, and said calmly: "Thank you, Duke Qi, for your hospitality, but Qingruo doesn't like mutton."

So Gao Bufan took another piece of lotus root, and Yang Qingruo said sarcastically: "After eating fresh lotus root in the winter, it seems that the Duke of Qi is really different from what he used to be. The wine and meat of the Zhumen are smelly, and there are people freezing to death on the road."

Gao Bufan smiled bitterly and said: "Dad planted them in the lotus pond in his backyard. They all withered after autumn. I dug a few lotus roots today just to entertain you Qingruo. Why bother to go online?"

Yang Qingruo's expression brightened slightly when she heard this. In fact, she had been in Youzhou for more than ten days. She naturally knew how the people here lived. It was obvious that the people here were far richer than those in other places, and Gao Bufan also had a deep understanding of the life of the people here.
