"Generally speaking, if two countries fight each other, the initial root must not be in the court of the two countries, but in the family that controls the two countries. There was a rift between the two monks, and if it could be properly resolved, there would be no sword war between the two countries; If the monks of the two families fail to negotiate and start fighting each other, then there will be a war. ”

Tang Ping saw that Li Jian listened carefully, but sighed in her heart, and secretly said that what she said later was that I was afraid that this Brother Li would feel uncomfortable when he heard it.

"The general rules, take Brother Li, your Liang and Jin countries, the Fang and Qiu families are not harmonious, and the monks of the Qiu family and the monks of the Fang family have a dispute, and finally fight with each other, and the result is that the Fang family of your Liang country is defeated. Then either the things that the Fang and Qiu families are fighting for belong to the enemy family, or the Fang family agrees to the enemy's conditions, or the Fang family wants to take out the spirit stone treasures and so on to give to the enemy family, if the Fang family is poor and can't take it out, or the Fang family is unwilling to give what the enemy wants, they can only give their own land to the enemy family. However, there is another rule here, the land is not given for nothing, it is the foundation of a family, if the Jin State wants this land, it must fight for it by itself, and here it is time for the generals of the two countries to lead the troops, and if the generals of the Jin State can take down the land, the land will become the enemy. And if the generals of the Liang State can hold that piece of land, that piece of land still belongs to the Fang family.

Brother Li, the approximate reason why you said that the Jin Kingdom attacked the city and you defended the city is probably what I talked about above. ”

Li Jian's body was already trembling slightly when he heard this, he squeezed the wine cup in his hand tightly, and his eyes stared at the red-hot charcoal fire in the bonfire.

Since he can remember, Li Jian has admired his grandfather since he was a child, and felt that he was loyal to the court, sympathetic to the soldiers, fought all his life, and made brilliant achievements, which was exactly the kind of person he wanted to become. As for the second uncle, Li Jian likes to be entangled with him, although the second uncle has a rough and open-minded temperament, but leading the army is no different from his grandfather, and he can learn a lot of things from him that he can't learn from military books.

Although the Jin State is strong, but the Liang army under the leadership of the Li family is united, the momentum is like a rainbow, even if it encounters a dangerous situation, it will never give up, several generations of people have steadily defended the land and resisted the enemy for the Liang State, which is what a glory in the Liang State! Every year to worship the ancestors, in the ancestral hall of the ancestors of the spiritual seat, grandfather will be their exploits one by one to themselves, he also looked forward to the future, descendants of their own tablet to count their life's achievements, what a glory it should be!

But after listening to what Tang Ping said, Li Jian realized that behind the Li family's achievements and the glory of the Jiangmen, there was actually the discord of the two families, but it was the greed of the big family and the unwillingness of the small family, poor second uncle's scarred body and grandfather's white hair!

Thinking of the Yan Bai who was taught hard by himself, if that guy is not surnamed Yan but surnamed Fang, and he beats him well, is it considered a slave beating the master, is it considered a crime?

Thinking of this, Li Jian sneered, raised the wine cup in his hand and drank it all, and took a long breath before he could barely suppress the qi and blood surging in his heart.

Qian Chao looked at Li Jian silently, seeing that Li Jian drank it all, Qian Chao also poured the wine in his cup into his mouth, he could understand Li Jian's feelings at the moment, he and Li Jian's background is similar, but he is strong in the stability around the Qi country, how many years there has been no war, and the people of the Qian family hold civilian positions in the country, and there is no risk of leading troops to fight. However, he also knows a thing or two about the situation of the Qian family in Qi State, and he also asked Tang Ping about this in the valley, knowing that if he doesn't come here, the Qian family is afraid that he will not be able to support the next election, and if he gets along with Li Jian in a different place, he is afraid that his heart will be just as indignant at this moment!

Yan Xuan also looked at Li Jian blankly, with her experience, she couldn't fully understand Li Jian's feelings, but it was Ah Ping's words that made this Brother Li feel uncomfortable, looking at that Brother Li's solemn appearance, he was more like a great son.

Only Lu Pingchuan saw that Li Jian raised his glass and drank it all, and wanted to drink with him, but found that the atmosphere was not right, and everyone looked very solemn on their faces.

Only Li Jian kept thinking in his heart, and secretly said that he was fortunate to come here, and fortunately, thanks to this Tang girl's words, he was able to remove the fog in front of him and let himself see more clearly.

"Thank you Miss Tang for helping me solve my doubts, now I understand a lot of things." Li Jian saluted Tang Ping.

"Brother Li doesn't have to be like this,"

Seeing this, Tang Ping hurriedly stopped Li Jian.

"I know that when these words come out, Brother Li must be upset in his heart at the moment, but Brother Li, many countries in the world are probably like this, and there is no exception. Immortals have their own differences, each according to the rules, your Li family up and down, for the country to defend against the enemy, to fight on the battlefield, so that the people of the Liang country will not suffer from military disasters, but this feat can not be erased by anyone. ”

Li Jian nodded when he heard this, but the meaning in his chest was still difficult to dissolve for a while.

Tang Ping could see it and continued.

"Actually, Brother Li, you see, for example, Qian Chao, there are also cultivators in his Qian family, and you have also read the books written by his elders, so wouldn't his elders know these truths? But aren't the children and grandchildren of the younger generations still rolling around in the red dust? Brother Li, not everyone can be like you. If there is one person among ten thousand people who can practice, it will be good, and even if there is one who can cultivate, if it is not discovered, it will be delayed. Not to mention anything else, your Liang and Jin countries are fighting endlessly, hundreds of thousands of people are fighting back and forth, and blood is flowing like a river, how many of them can be cultivated end up becoming white bones on the battlefield? It's not easy to come here, Brother Li, if you come, you will be safe, you should live up to your life, and you Li family will not be right. ”

These words touched Li Jian a lot, and the block that had just been stagnant in his chest was gradually dispelled.

Indeed, his Li family lives up to the Liang Kingdom, and his grandfather and second uncle live up to the prestige of the Li family, if he doesn't come here, he will be a mighty general in the future, but he is still so ignorant.

The difference is that when I came here, I was able to clear the fog in front of me and see more clearly.

Is it just because the family is too powerful, and the Li family is too small?

Li Jian thought about it repeatedly in her heart, many things she can't change, and she can't change it, but she can only change herself.

Thinking of this, Li Jian stood up with a cheer up, filled the wine, and said to Tang Ping: "Thank you Miss Tang for solving my doubts, Li Mou's heart is bright today, and he will definitely live up to his life, my Li family, and you treat me like this!" ”

After that, Li Jian drank it all.

Before Tang Ping could speak, Lu Pingchuan saw that everyone was cheering up at this time, so he also stood up and raised the wine cup and said loudly: "Come, drink together!" Seeing that the timing was just right, everyone stood up and raised their wine together and drank a glass with Li Jian.

Putting down the wine glass, Qian Chao praised Tang Ping in his heart, and his words not only woke up Li Jian, but also made him closer to everyone, which is really rare.

After sitting down again, everyone talked while eating, and after a while, Tang Ping wiped the greasy side of his mouth with a handkerchief, looked at Li Jian and said, "Brother Li, I haven't finished answering what you asked before, so I'll tell you all about it, so that you can understand the origin of the matter." ”

Li Jian nodded and said, "Miss Tang, please speak." ”

"Among these countries in the world, the situation of your Liang country is very special.

Those many sects and families that are attached to the Five Spirits Sect, their lands are connected together, just like a vast land, but no matter how vast the land is, there will be a margin, just like the border between the two countries, and your Liang country is above this border. Just now I said that it is fortunate that you are from the Liang Kingdom, otherwise I would not remember, it is because the Fang family of the Liang Kingdom is not only in the place where the Five Spirits Sect can influence, but also in the place where another major sect, the Muyang Sect, can influence, in other words, your Liang Kingdom is at the junction of the two major sects. The enemy of the Jin Kingdom is attached to the Mu Yang Sect, but the Fang family has never been attached to the Mu Yang Sect, nor is it attached to the Five Spirits Sect, it can be said that the Fang family is in the gap between the two major sects, and there is no backstage, so they have been bullied by the enemy family for many years, and there are constant swords and soldiers between the two of you. ”

Seeing that everyone nodded, especially Li Jian listened carefully, Tang Ping continued: "The Fang family is not attached to the Five Spirits Sect, the reason is not something I can know, firstly, it may be too long, and secondly, the location of the Liang Kingdom is too far away. And your Li family has the first jade plate of the Five Spirits Sect, I can guess this, even if you don't win, the difference will not be far.

Earlier, I said that there will also be intrigue between the six major sects, and the struggle between the sects and sects is the investment and dependence of these sects and families scattered all over the world. If the Fang family votes for the Five Spirits Sect, then the Liang Kingdom is the Five Spirits Sect, and the Fang family drags to serve the Mu Yang Sect, then your Liang Kingdom is the Mu Yang Sect. After all, there is so much land in the world, if the Five Spirits Sect can have more, then the Muyang Sect will be a little less, so this competition is actually quite fierce, not only in your Liang Country, but also at the junction of the Five Spirits Sect and the Muyang Sect. ”

"Is this the land that the sects are fighting for?" Qian Chao asked puzzledly, if this is the case, then there will be no difference between the sect and those secular countries.

"Of course not, the sect or cultivators are not actually looking at the land, it doesn't matter what the land is used for, for the cultivators, what they value is the property that may appear on the land. In this way, no one can say what spiritual herbs and elixirs will appear in the land of Liang Kingdom, or other good things, if the Fang family is attached to the Five Spirit Sect, then the Five Spirit Sect can naturally take it without worrying about others. ”

Yan Xuan asked, "Why don't you keep it for yourself, must you give it to the sect?" ”

Tang Ping replied: "No, it's normal for ordinary things to be left by the family, but in case it is a treasure of the world, although the family is very willing to keep by itself, but after staying, it is coveted and snooped on, but it has no strength to keep it, and if it will attract disasters, it will often inform the sect to which it is attached and take it away by the sect, of course, the sect will definitely not treat this family badly." ”

The crowd listened and nodded.

Tang Ping continued: "Just now I said that the Fang family has not voted for the Five Spirits Sect, but your Li family has the first choice of the Five Spirits Sect's jade card, if it is in my opinion, it is likely that the sect has been planning the Liang State for a long time, and your family's jade card is likely to be a dark chess move laid by the sect a long time ago, through your Li family, meddling in the Liang Kingdom, and then letting the Fang family come over." ”

Li Jian himself also faintly thought of this.

"There are many small countries like Liang that no one on either side of the country takes refuge, but there are very few ones like the Fang family who are in danger, and other small families in small countries are often either waiting for the price to sell or waiting left and right, only the Fang family has reached the point where if he doesn't help him, he may really fall. The demise of the family is also very normal, the big family either has external enemies or internal troubles, or the children and grandchildren of the future generations are not successful, none of them have a future, and they will slowly weaken and eventually disappear. Maybe the Fang family was still a prominent family a few generations ago, even if our Tang family had only risen for a few generations, it was slowly accumulated little by little.

Your enemy Jin State is planning Liang State is definitely not a day or two, then the enemy must also know that your Li family has this Jiaxuan jade plate in their hands, and it is likely that they don't know what means to know that your Brother Li's qualifications are not bad, the Fang family may not be worried, only the Wuling Sect behind this jade plate is their biggest scruples, Brother Li said that half of the crisis at that time was on you, that's right, I estimate that the enemy family provoked the two countries to fight this time, just to let you fall on the battlefield before the first selection, if I didn't guess wrong, Brother Li, You've probably experienced a lot of dangers while defending the city, right? ”

Li Jian nodded and said: "Yes, in Luojing City, the assassins sent by the Jin Kingdom several times were obviously assassinating my grandfather, but when they fought each other, they killed me everywhere, and I myself was very puzzled at the time. ”

After listening to this, Tang Ping continued: "Since you said this, there is one thing Brother Li, you can rest assured, my sixth grandfather also holds an important position in the sect, otherwise Liang Guo will not let him go to such a key place, with his means will definitely be able to deter the enemy family and persuade the Fang family, even if the Liang and Jin countries are fighting one after another, even if the situation of you defending the city is critical, as soon as you come to this Youming Valley, that city will definitely be able to be defended, and your Li family will still be in charge of the military power in the Liang Kingdom, maybe your two elders can also be saved." ”

Li Jian listened to it and knew that Tang Ping had the intention of comforting himself in the end, according to what Tang Ping said, the Li family could defend Naluojing City this time, but the safety of the two seniors may not be preserved. When he came, his grandfather was old and weak and injured in many places, and the second uncle was even unconscious in the injury camp like a dead man, but since the Tang seniors intended to go to the Liang Kingdom and protect the Liang Kingdom, the two elders should still be helping, thinking of this, Li Jian's heart was slightly relieved. But immediately thought of his several assassinations, and thought of the Jin Kingdom and the enemy again.

"The few times the city stabbed me at that time, it must have been the enemy's order, right? Otherwise, the two countries will fight each other, and the commander and general will be the target of assassination, so there is no need to do this to me. Li Jian said.

Tang Ping didn't speak, but nodded.

Li Jian took a deep breath and said: "The enemy is kind, Li Mou understands it, if there is a day, there will be a return." ”

Tang Ping knew that even if he didn't say these things today, Li Jian could also inquire about them from others, and since he asked today, he would simply tell him everything. It's just that if this Li Jian succeeds in the future, he will definitely take revenge on the enemies of the Jin Kingdom, if the five of them are still like now, they are afraid that they will already have a good relationship, and they can't say that the five of them will go to the Jin Kingdom to stir up the wind and rain, but those things are still far away, and now I want to do it.

That night, a few people ate and drank happily in the mountains and forests. When a few people dispersed and went back to their residences to rest, Li Jian took the long sword in his hand in the room and looked at it carefully for a long time, and then carefully wiped the cold and light sword body with a clean cloth. Although the time was not long, he felt that countless cold and summer had passed since the days of bloody defense in Luojing City.

In the next few days, the five of them would gather together every day to practice, and when the practice was over, they would go to the forest with Lu Pingchuan to look for prey or set traps.
