When Shang Tianliang heard the news, he suddenly had an idea in his heart, he looked at Lin Duowen, and was about to say something, but Lin Duowen sensed his thoughts, so he said to Shang Tianliang: "Brother Shang, this time, one is to let the countries in the west of the empire see our strength, and the other is to send the enemy forward." ”

Although Lin Duowen didn't say it explicitly, Shang Tianliang understood that this time the credit was not great, but he was very tired.

Shang Tianliang didn't have this mind anymore, and was ready to leave here tomorrow and report to the army.

The next day, Shang Tianliang took the initiative to leave, Lin Duowen naturally did not stay long, he personally set up a banquet to say goodbye.

After Shang Tianliang left, Lin Duowen asked Qian Du and Chen Qiuzhun what he thought, and Chen Qiuzhun said that they should also go back, and this time they would not accompany Lin Duowen on the Western Expedition.

Lin Duowen said that he might not go to Xirong, after all, the sage only asked him to return to Beijing, not to wait for the Anxi Protectorate.

Qian Du told Lin Duowen that he went to Huanglong City, or to Huanglong Academy, which was the place where Lin Quan gave his first lecture. But now that the matter is over, it's better to go and meet Liang Yuanpei.

When Lin Duowen heard Qian Du say this, he naturally agreed, he didn't want to see his four senior brothers, for him or Lin Shaowen, he had a feeling of seeing his father for Mr. Lin Mensi.

They were ashamed of their lack of learning, and although they knew that these four would not say much about them, they were ashamed.

But since he came here, Qian Du also said so, and Lin Duowen could only go.

Lin Duowen returned to Huanglong City with his personal guards, the prefect warmly entertained Lin Duowen, Lin Duowen entered the prefect's yamen, and the squires in the city congratulated Lin Duowen, saying that Lin Duowen had really made an immortal contribution, and compared to his father Lin Wenzheng, he did not let it go.

Some of them have seen Lin Quan and told Lin Duowen that Lin Duowen also followed the current sage here to conquer Wei Wei, and finally was named the Marquis of Zhiyong, and now Lin Duowen is here to go on an expedition with the eldest prince and make meritorious contributions.

Of course, it is an exaggeration to say that the ancient world has not been, but the importance of the Lin family's holy family in the country is also seen by everyone.

Lin Duowen said modestly that he didn't dare, all of this relied on everyone's efforts, especially the eldest prince's strategizing, anticipating the enemy's opportunities, and he was able to make contributions, so naturally the eldest prince accounted for most of the credit.

When everyone saw him mention the eldest prince, they also took the opportunity to say good things about the eldest prince, they didn't forget, but the protagonist of this banquet was Lin Duowen, if they said the eldest prince first, it would inevitably be noisy and disappointing.

Lin Duowen only went to Huanglong Academy the next day, this time he didn't dress gorgeously, but asked for a young dress and went to visit Huanglong Academy as a scholar.

When he went, Liang Peiyuan was sitting behind the lecture and talking about the I Ching.

This I Ching is inherently mysterious, and Lin Duowen has no textbooks, so he almost dozed off when he only listened to it.

When it was noon, Liang Peiyuan stepped forward and said to Lin Duowen: "Your Excellency, I don't know what to call it?" ”

"Boy Lin Duowen, the cursive word Shijian has seen Mr. Liang."

When Liang Peiyuan heard this, he made Lin Duowen raise his head, looked at Lin Duowen with tears in his eyes, and said to Lin Duowen: "Shi Jian, I didn't expect you to come, come, sit down and talk." ”

Liang Peiyuan asked Lin Duowen's family if they were okay, and Lin Duowen also answered one by one.

Liang Peiyuan didn't ask Lin Duowen about learning, just asked Lin Duowen about some trivial things, and after Lin Duowen finished speaking, Liang Peiyuan smiled and said: "Okay, your eldest brother is already a small mound, and you have also been made a marquis, if the ancestor knows about this, you can rest assured." ”

When Liang Peiyuan said this, he took Lin Duowen to a small room in the back, where a portrait was hung, and it was Lin Quan himself, but Lin Quan on this portrait was different from what Lin Duowen saw.

The portrait of Lin Quan that Lin Duowen saw was either as serious as Mr. Taoism, or full of smiles, which made people feel like a spring breeze. But this portrait has a sad look on his face, as if he were sullen and unhappy.

After Liang Peiyuan asked Lin Duo to smell the incense, he prayed that Lin Quan's two children had also become talents, so he could also let go of his burden.

When Lin Duo heard this prayer, he had some doubts, and only after Liang Peiyuan finished speaking, did he speak: "Mr. Liang, I don't know what you are worried about?" ”

Liang Peiyuan said that he had no hardship, and he inherited this academy because Liang Fayao wanted to follow Lin Quan's last wish and pass on the Tao to the south.

Another reason is that Lin Shaowen and Lin Duowen are both young, in order to avoid Lin Quan being despised by others, so they Mr. Lin Mensi want to give a lecture to let people know that Lin Quan's doctrine is not to extinguish the fire, but to pass on the torch from generation to generation.

But now that the two children of the Lin family have grown up, he can also let go of this burden and pursue the way he wants to pursue.

Liang Peiyuan told Lin Duowen that he liked to cultivate Taoism when he was Emperor Wu, but he couldn't let go of his identity as a Confucian student, and now he doesn't have much burden on his shoulders, and he can become a monk smoothly.

Lin Duowen heard Ding Yuli say this at the time, he thought that Liang Peiyuan didn't owe them anything, and he would naturally do what he wanted to do.

He blessed Liang Peiyuan to achieve the immortal path as soon as possible and escape the world.

Liang Peiyuan also found someone, but he had already prepared the mountain chief and explained it in person.

In this way, that afternoon, under the puzzled eyes of many students, Liang Peiyuan changed into Taoist clothes, saluted them, and drifted away, without any nostalgia.

Although everyone is a little reluctant, they still stammered with this Lin Duowen, most of the people who read this book want to ask for a background, and now that Lin Duowen is by their side, how can they not stutter.

Lin Duowen didn't have much influence on these people, but there was a young boy who made him feel unique.

The boy sat alone in a secluded corner of the room while the crowd was stammering, reading with a book in his hand.

The next day, Lindo smelled it early in the morning, and heard the sound of recitation, and he got dressed, put on a big hat, and went to look for it, and sure enough, it was the boy from yesterday, who was walking up and down next to him, reciting a book.

Lin Duo smelled that although his clothes were still quite thick, after all, it was still a little cold this day, and his face was already red from the cold.

Lin Duowen took off his big coat, draped it on the boy, and said to the boy, "It's cold outside, you might as well come in and read." ”

The boy looked at Lin Duowen, nodded, and then went to Lin Duowen's room.

Lin Duowen also got a cup of hot water for the boy, let him drink it to warm his body, and after the boy finished reciting the words, Lin Duowen said, "What's your name?" ”

"Yellow Bell"

"Huang Zhong, I'm curious, why did you read a book in the banquet hall last night?"

"Because it's fuel-efficient."

Lin Duowen understood, this academy is like lamp oil, these are all rationed, otherwise, if these people are wasted, the academy will not have so much for them to waste.

Lin Duowen asked Huang Zhong why he was studying, and Huang Zhong's answer was very simple: "Establish a heart for heaven and earth, establish a life for the people, continue to learn for the saints, and open peace for all generations." ”

When Lin Duowen heard this, if an ordinary person said it, Lin Duowen just smiled, knowing that this was just a perfunctory remark, but in Huang Zhong's eyes, Lin Duowen saw sincerity, and Huang Zhong did it.

"You are so ambitious, Huang Zhong, in the future, Confucianism will definitely have your name."

Lin Duowen encouraged Huang Zhong, Huang Zhong nodded as if he didn't understand, after Lin Duowen and Huang Zhong had breakfast together, Lin Duowen found the mountain chief and told Huang Zhong about it, and the mountain chief said that he knew and would take care of Huang Zhong more.

When Lin Duowen left here, he said goodbye to the prefect, it was too cold here, and he was ready to leave first.

Lin Duowen arrived at Zhili Mansion and happened to meet Miss Qi.

When the two met at the post house, Miss Qi said what she meant, and then talked to Lin Duowen.

Miss Qi inquired about the situation in the royal court, and Lin Duowen also said truthfully, hearing Lin Duowen's introduction, Miss Qi breathed a sigh of relief and told Lin Duowen that if she knew that Chen Qiuzhun would do this, she would not have come here in person.

Lin Duowen said that Chen Qiuzhun was only solving some small things, and some things still needed to be solved by Miss Qi and the eldest prince, and there were many subordinates of King Zuoxian.

When Lin Duowen said this, he thought about it and called Zhong Shenxiu, after Zhong Shenxiu arrived, he didn't dare to look up at Miss Qi, and Miss Qi asked Zhong Shenxiu about King Zuoxian.

Zhong Shenxiu naturally said it 1510, he originally said it in person when he met the saint, but now that the Qin Cha is here, if he doesn't say it, it will cause a disaster.

Miss Qi said that the grain and grass left by King Zuo Xian was a good thing, so that the imperial court would not have to spend so much money, and they could be generous to others.

"But the envoy, only he knows the place where King Zuoxian hides grain."

"Can he hide this grain alone?" Miss Qi said confidently, she said that unless King Zuo Xian had the ability to tread the snow without a trace, she would be able to find these grains sooner or later.

Zhong Shenxiu said yes and told Miss Qi a few places where she was suspicious, and Miss Qi thanked Zhong Shenxiu, and then Zhong Shenxiu went down.

Miss Qi and Lin Duowen talked for a long time, until the lights came on, and Miss Qi ended the conversation in order to avoid suspicion. In the end, Miss Qi remembered Lin Bingmei's incident and told Lin Duowen.

When Lin Duo heard this, he was greatly surprised and asked Miss Qi if this was true.

"Dingbei Hou, I know it's hard for you to believe this, but you will know it when you arrive in the capital, the county lord's heart to become a monk is very resolute, not just for ordinary women to talk about."
