Xu Fengnian kept thinking about what Xu Xiao said to him last night. He got up at dawn the next day, put on a dark green dress under the service of the maid, and went straight to Tingchao Pavilion.
Tingchao Pavilion was a place where Xu Xiaoma gathered all the martial arts secrets after he set foot on the rivers and lakes. Everyone in the rivers and lakes did not want to enter Tingchao Pavilion to have a look, but Beiliang's illustrious reputation made them
Stand still.
Xu Fengnian walked straight into the Tingchao Pavilion that people in the world dreamed of. From the corner of his eye, he saw an old man in white sleeping on the ground without any image. Xu Fengnian stopped, walked in front of the man, and picked up helplessly from the side.
A blanket was placed on the old man's body, and then he walked up the stairs.
After a while, Xu Fengnian walked to the top of the building and saw an old man reviewing the chessboard in front of him. Although the old man in front of him had messy hair and looked similar to an ordinary old man, Xu Fengnian was very respectful.
She walked up to him and saluted, and her behavior was extremely polite. Compared with how she treated her father, Northern Liang King Xu Xiao, last night, it was a huge difference!
"Master!"
Xu Fengnian shouted respectfully. The old man did not raise his head, but said plainly, asking Xu Fengnian to sit down.
Although the person who was treated with such respect by Xu Fengnian looked extremely ordinary now, if he went out and let others see him, it would be a major event that caused a sensation in the Liyang Dynasty.
The old man's name is Li Yishan. This name sounds a bit unusual, but when it comes to other people's evaluation of him, there are only four words that can match him: "Unparalleled national scholar!"
Back then, Xu Xiao destroyed the Six Kingdoms and Guo Zuo, and Li Yishan's contribution should not be underestimated. Behind the shocking events one after another.
It's just that Li Yishan, who is now imprisoned on the top floor of Tingchao Pavilion, no longer has the energy to look around.
"How does it feel to travel these past three years?"
Li Yishan played with the chess pieces and spoke softly. Xu Fengnian stared at the chessboard and replied: "I have experienced a lot in the past three years, and I have seen a lot of things I have never seen before. I have some insights in my heart, but I haven't fully understood them yet.
."
"As long as you have something to gain, there is no need to rush. Take your time and play a game with me to see if you have made any progress."
As he spoke, Li Yishan gathered the pieces on the chessboard and started playing black and white with Xu Fengnian. The two of them went back and forth. After a while, Xu Fengnian stopped and said, "I lost!"
"It's not bad, I've made some progress, and I'm more stable than before."
Li Yishan looked at Xu Fengnian and then said.
"Master has given me a reward."
Xu Fengnian cupped his hands and said humbly, and Li Yishan continued, "You came to me early in the morning. If you have anything to do, just tell me."
Xu Fengnian didn't write ink, so he should tell the old man in front of him everything he said to Xu Xiao yesterday.
Li Yishan looked at Xu Fengnian with his slightly cloudy eyes and said, "In fact, it was me and your father who first talked about accepting the blue bird as an adopted daughter."
"Why?"
Xu Fengnian asked doubtfully. It's not that he can't accept Qingniao as his adopted daughter. Just like Xu Xiao said last night, when his mother was still alive, she treated the maids in his courtyard no differently than her own daughter.
.
However, more than ten years have passed, and he did not accept it sooner or later, but he did it when he returned from traveling. Xu Fengnian always felt that Xu Xiao must have a plan, especially now that his master said that he was the one who proposed this matter in the first place. Xu Fengnian has been studying with his master for many years, but he doesn't know how terrifying he is. The world and people's hearts are all caught up in his plans. If you stay close to one inch, you can plan for changes in the world. This is the power of his master, and it is also
Because after seeing this, Xu Fengnian was even more unwilling to learn martial arts.
Although both Xu Xiao and Lao Huang were trying to persuade him, Xu Fengnian felt that even the most powerful warrior could not be as powerful as Beiliang's 300,000 cavalry, and could not escape his master's layout and planning. In this case, why should he?
Spend so much time learning martial arts.
When Li Yishan heard Xu Fengnian's question, he was stunned for a while, and then sighed: "I was watching the scenery by the window that day. Although I have been watching the scenery here for a long time, this is the only thing I do every day for entertainment.
I did. Although my eyes have become a lot cloudier over the years, I can’t see wrongly. On that day, the luck of the child named Blue Bird suddenly increased, and there was a faint sound of phoenix singing between heaven and earth." "Luck???"
Xu Fengnian was stunned. He thought he would learn some secret from his master, or something that would affect the layout and planning of the court. Even before coming to see his teacher, Xu Fengnian secretly thought about the possibility that it was Xu Xiao.
I want to send the blue bird out to marry the minister of that court.
No wonder Xu Fengnian thinks so, this kind of thing has happened before. Xu Zhihu, Xu Fengnian's eldest sister, Xu Xiao's eldest daughter, was married to the Lu family in Jiangnan for the sake of the relationship between Northern Liang and Jiangnan literary circles. At that time,
Xu Fengnian always disagreed, but his eldest sister resolutely went to Jiangnan.
Xu Fengnian was so angry that he went directly to Wudang Mountain in Beiliang and beat up the Taoist priest riding a bull on the mountain several times, but in the end he was unable to keep his eldest sister and his second sister Xu Weixiong, also for Beiliang, alone.
One person went to Shangyin Academy, and the four good siblings separated from each other. This was one of the main reasons why Xu Fengnian had such a bad attitude toward Xu Xiao.
But even though Xu Fengnian thought about so many reasons, she never thought that her master would say such a... absurd... reason.
Xu Fengnian looked at his master strangely. Li Yishan had watched Xu Fengnian grow up. Seeing his strange expression, he didn't know what he was thinking, but...
Alas...
Li Yishan sighed again, thinking that he never believed in fate back then, but when he got old, he had to believe it. The scene that day really shocked the old man.
"The theory of luck is not nonsense, it's just that ordinary luck cannot interfere with changes in the human world."
Li Yishan said quietly. Seeing that his master didn't seem to be cheating, Xu Fengnian became a little silent and asked, "What does this change mean?"
"The sign of the phoenix's cry is a sign of good fortune and wealth, that is to say..."
"In other words, Qingniao's status became extremely noble overnight, either becoming a marquis or a general, or ascending the throne as an emperor. But as a woman, she is still a maid in the palace, so she naturally does not have this opportunity. p>
A person's fate can only be changed by external forces other than oneself. As for a woman, that is to say, her future husband's fate affects her, so Xu Xiao adopts her as his adopted daughter. Isn't this still a marriage?
!"
Xu Fengnian became excited as he talked. Li Yishan waved his hand to calm Xu Fengnian down, "I just complimented you a few times, but I became impetuous again."
"If it were as simple as you said, I wouldn't have to worry so much!"
Li Yishan took a deep look at Xu Fengnian and sighed in his heart. In fact, he had seen the theory of fate as early as the year Xu Fengnian was born.
