There is a feeling in the rivers and lakes, called sympathy.

Without a strong opponent, you won't make yourself stronger.

Such two people are opponents but not enemies, they will not be blinded by temporary victories and defeats, and they know how to respect each other better.

At this time, Lu Xiaoxian and Mr. Wang both saw firmness and respect in each other's eyes, and this kind of feeling may not be understood by others at all.

"That's it! Now that we're done, it's time for me to go! Lu Xiaoxian stood up and was about to walk towards the door, when he suddenly glanced at Tang Qian, and said to Mr. Wang, "I have a request, I don't know if it's possible?" ”

"Please!" Mr. Wang raised his eyebrows.

"In the days before returning to Luoyang, I want Miss Tang to follow me, please ask Mr. to agree!"

Listening to Lu Xiaoxian's words, Ouyang Jian's mouth was almost crooked.

It's just too much, just a moment it was just a joke, but now it's really important. Lu Xiaoxian is scheming, if the junior sister really wants to leave with Lu Xiaoxian, wouldn't it be a sheep?

What Ouyang Jian could think of, Mr. Wang should naturally be able to think of, Lu Xiaoxian's unreasonable request, Ouyang Jian knew that the master would definitely refuse.

Who knew that Mr. Wang promised with a mouth: "I have no problem here, it depends on whether Qian'er is willing or not!" ”

Hearing Mr. Wang's words, Ouyang Jian was shocked, he was about to open his mouth to persuade Mr. Wang, but saw Lu Xiaoxian preemptively ask Tang Qian: "I don't know what Miss Tang thinks?" ”

Tang Qian was at a loss for a moment, lowered her head and whispered, "I listen to Master!" ”

Lu Xiaoxian laughed and said to Mr. Wang: "Thank you, I think Mr. still has something to explain to Miss Tang, I'll wait outside the door for a while!" ”

After that, Lu Xiaoxian went out of the door.

As soon as Lu Xiaoxian went out, Ouyang Jian said impatiently: "Master, how can you agree to such a ridiculous request?" ”

Mr. Wang gave him a blank look: "Why can't you agree?" ”

"He definitely didn't have any good intentions, in case the junior sister was ...... by him" Ouyang Jian's words couldn't be spoken.

Mr. Wang said coldly: "I want you to go with me, but the question is whether people are willing to take you in?" If Qian'er can't even cope with such a thing, she is not worthy of being my apprentice! ”

Seeing that Mr. Wang's tone was not good, Ouyang Jian lowered his head and did not say anything.

Mr. Wang sighed, slowed down his tone and said: "From Panzhou to Taozhou, and then to Yingzhou, what Lu Xiaoxian has done is obvious to all, such an opponent is difficult to deal with, don't you admit it?" ”

What Mr. Wang said is the truth, ask yourself, Ouyang Jian is Lu Xiaoxian, and he will definitely not do better than Lu Xiaoxian.

Mr. Wang continued: "Since you have accepted his challenge, you must treat it carefully, you must know yourself and your opponent, let Qian'er follow him, understand his every move, and find out his weaknesses, so that you can finally defeat him!" ”

What Mr. Wang said didn't make sense, but there was one thing that Ouyang Jian couldn't understand, and couldn't help asking, "Master, why do you have to fight him?" Wouldn't it be better to get rid of him directly, and it's not like we haven't dealt with difficult opponents like this! ”

Listening to Ouyang Jian's words, the worry on Tang Qian's face flashed.

"You don't understand, he's different from others!" Mr. Wang's face flashed with a strange color, "When it comes to resourcefulness, I never look at others in my eyes as a teacher, but only Lu Xiaoxian is the most qualified person to be my opponent!" ”

Maybe Ouyang Jian couldn't understand Mr. Wang's mood, but he could understand the loneliness of the master who couldn't find an opponent and couldn't be cold from a high place.

"Accept his challenge and defeat him, in addition to him being worthy of being an opponent, it is more important that I recruit him for the lord. I'm old, and maybe I'll go back to the West one day. If he assists the lord, I can leave this world and be blind! ”

Ouyang Jian is Mr. Wang's apprentice, but Mr. Wang didn't consider letting him be his own **, which made Ouyang Jian very sad in his heart.

Mr. Wang called out to Tang Qian and whispered in her ear, Tang Qian couldn't help but nod while listening.

After the explanation, Mr. Wang waved his hand at her and said, "You can go!" ”

Tang Qian saluted Mr. Wang and said, "Master, then I'm leaving!" ”

Mr. Wang nodded.

Tang Qian saluted Ouyang Jian again: "During this time, Master is still asking Senior Brother to do more here, Qian'er has thanked Senior Brother here!" ”

Ouyang Jian was angry in his heart, and he wanted to ignore Tang Qian, but in the end, he still didn't give up, he sighed and said, "You yourself should be careful, if you really can't stay, come back quickly!" ”

……

Tang Qian walked out of the house, and sure enough, he saw Lu Xiaoxian waiting for him with his hands in his hands.

Lu Xiaoxian smiled at Tang Qian: "Can we go?" ”

"Where to go?" Tang Qian asked.

"I don't know!" Lu Xiaoxian spread his hands and said with a pun, "Now I can only take one step at a time!" ”

Tang Qian didn't ask anymore and followed behind Lu Xiaoxian.

Lu Xiaoxian asked again and again while walking: "Are Li Shenhuo and Li Kaigu both in the Governor's Mansion?" ”

"Yes!"

Lu Xiaoxian stopped: "Can I go and see the two of them?" ”

"Impossible!" Tang Qian blurted out.

"Why?" Lu Xiaoxian looked at Tang Qian seriously.

"Li Yanhuo and Li Kaigu were placed under house arrest in the backyard of the Governor's Mansion, and Sun Wanrong sent his henchmen to surround the backyard with three layers inside and three layers outside, not to mention you, even my master can't see them if he wants to."

"So that's what happened!" Lu Xiaoxian thought for a moment, and a smile appeared on his face, "I know where we should go now!" ”

With that, Lu Xiaoxian continued to walk towards the gate of the Governor's Mansion.

"Where are we going?" Tang Qian chased after two steps and asked curiously.

"Go to the chief of the Xi clan, Li Dayu!" Lu Xiaoxian didn't answer.

……

In the big tent of Li Dayu, the chief of the Xi clan, after listening to Lu Xiaoxian's words, Li Dayu couldn't help frowning: "There is no evidence, why should I believe you?" ”

During the Zhenguan period of the Tang Dynasty, the Turkic Khanate collapsed, and the Xi people, who were originally attached to the Turks, were attached to the Tang Dynasty. There are nine states under the custody, and the leaders of each tribe are the history of thorns.

The Khitans led their troops to rebel against the Great Zhou, because the Xi tribe itself was weak, as the Xi chieftain Li Dayu could only allow the Xi tribe to be coerced by the Khitan to rebel together in order to protect himself.

In fact, from Li Dayu's heart, he did not agree to rebel, but the current situation no longer allowed him to regret it.

At this moment, Lu Xiaoxian told him that the Turks had agreed to help Great Zhou put down the Khitan rebellion, and advised him to quickly turn against the water and completely break with the Khitans.

If that's the case, that's certainly a good thing. Whether it is Turkic or Great Zhou, Li Dayu can't afford to offend. What's more, the Turks and the Great Zhou joined forces to deal with the Khitan, wouldn't the Xi tribe, as the Khitan ally, be unlucky?

But the problem is that this is just Lu Xiaoxian's family words, there is no evidence, in case he was fooled by Lu Xiaoxian, rashly stabbed the Khitan people in the back, and the Khitans turned around to find his bad luck, but how is it good?

Of course, Lu Xiaoxian knew the concerns in Li Dayu's heart, and he smiled slightly: "I know that the chief still has doubts in his heart, let's let the facts speak!" In this way, it is limited to ten days, and if the Turks attack the Khitan within ten days, then without further ado, the chief will make up his mind as soon as possible. If there is no movement of the Turks for ten days, even if I have not said anything. If there is a big action in ten days by the Turks, it is not too late for the chieftain to do it, how about it? ”

Li Dayu looked at Lu Xiaoxian, hesitated for a moment and nodded: "Looking for Mr. Lu, but Mr. Lu has been wronged in the past ten days, and I will treat Mr. Lu with hospitality!" ”

The meaning of Li Dayu's words is very clear, he is going to put Lu Xiaoxian under house arrest here.

"Trouble the chief!" Lu Xiaoxian was not angry at all, and readily agreed like no one.

He pointed at Tang Qian again and said to Li Dayu, "Chief, this Tang girl is my friend, please prepare a place for the chief to live, how about it?" ”

"Well said! Say! "Lu Xiaoxian's request is just a trivial matter for Li Dayu, how can there be any reason to disagree.

When she came to her residence, Tang Qian said with a look of disgust: "You are too capable, if the Turks don't attack the Khitan within ten days, it depends on how you explain when you arrive!" ”

"Definitely!" Lu Xiaoxian was full of confidence.

There is a reason why Lu Xiaoxian is so confident.

A few days ago, Lu Xiaoxian sent Xing Feng to the Turks to meet the Mosi Khan and report to him the specific location of the new city built by the Khitans. With Lu Xiaoxian's understanding of Mo Si, Mo Si will definitely not let go of this great opportunity.

Sure enough, only five days later, Li Dayu couldn't wait to come to Lu Xiaoxian.

Lu Xiaoxian learned from Li Dayu that the Turks had indeed acted.

In order to avoid being taken away by the Turks, Sun Wanrong sent people to build a new city four hundred miles northwest of Yingzhou City, and he moved all the Khitan tribesmen, old and weak women, and equipment and baggage into the new city, and let his brother-in-law Yi Yuyu live in the new city.

I don't know how the Turkic Khan Mosi found out about the situation in Xincheng and suddenly sent troops to attack Xincheng. In only three days, Sun Wanrong's carefully built city was breached, the Khitans in the city became prisoners, and the stored gold and silver treasures naturally became the spoils of the Mosi Khan.

Lu Xiaoxian listened, and said to Li Dayu: "The facts are already here, if the chief doesn't act again, then the Turks and the Great Zhou will deal with the Xi people like the Khitan, I'm afraid it's too late!" ”

Li Dayu patted his chest and said, "Young Master Lu, please rest assured, I will send troops to attack Yingzhou City!" ”

The day after the Turks raided the Khitan New City, Li Dayu, the leader of the Xi tribe who was originally a Khitan Alliance, suddenly sent troops to attack Yingzhou City.

Mr. Wang was informed by Tang Qian in advance that when the Xi army was still on the way, he and Ouyang Jian had already withdrawn from Yingzhou City.

The Khitan army was fighting against the Great Zhou with all its might, and the number of troops placed in the city of Yingzhou was very small, and it was soon broken by the Xi army.

Not long ago, the city of Yingzhou was sacked by the Turks, and although Yingzhou returned to the hands of the Khitans after Sun Wanrong returned to help, it was only an empty city. Li Dayu captured Yingzhou City, but he didn't get any oil and water, so he had to escort Li Fuhuo and Li Kaigu, who were under house arrest, back to their own territory.
