Half a year later, firecrackers in Xiaozheng Village, a few miles away from the West Lake in Hangzhou, were noisy and lively. Wöena'com, a village that had been abandoned for many years, was now bustling with people and regaining its former life.

Located in front of the door of the largest house in the village, Ah Bu and Xiaomo were hurriedly directing the workers to move in furniture and objects, shouting from time to time, "Oh, this big brother, be careful, don't break the corner of the table" "These two screens have been moved to the west wing, which is my mother's favorite" "The lantern is hanging crookedly over there, use snacks" "The food delivery needs to be paid in the kitchen, Steward Yang, go and take a look." ”

The old man who was called Steward Yang agreed with a smile and said, "I really never dreamed of the old man, and I would have the opportunity to see this mansion lively again in this life." As he spoke, he wiped the tears from his eyes with his sleeve. It turned out that this old man used to be the housekeeper of this mansion. At that time, the owner of this house was the owner of Ye Suiyun's cattle herding when he was a child. After Ye Suiyun rescued Gu Lingling, the owner was frightened by the evil slaves of the Hidden Sword Villa, and died within a few days. The old and young wives and children of the family also fled, and the house was abandoned. Only Steward Yang was left alone.

In the blink of an eye, more than ten years have passed, Tang Xiyao spent a hundred taels of gold to buy out all the land deeds and leases from the Hangzhou government, not only bought back the original mansion, but even bought Ye Suiyun's name in a radius of several miles, including the entire Xiaozheng Village. made Ye Suiyun transform into a big landlord who was like a fake. Then he found the many surviving villagers of Jiangjin Village that day and placed them in Xiaozheng Village, which immediately restored the vitality of these places.

After many days of cleaning and repair, and even greatly expanding the house, it is finally possible to move in today. At this time, the main hall lobby is even more lively. In addition to Yan Wuwu, Xiao Ning'er, and Murong Yunqing, the three of them came from afar, as well as Li Yunrao and Leng Sisi, who came from Chang'an with Leng Xiaoxiao. Even the newlywed Yan'er Ye Fan and Tang Xiaowan also came to visit with congratulatory gifts, and Tang Xiyao accompanied everyone to chat and frolic in the hall.

Yan Wuwu looked around at the newly renovated mansion and sighed: "Miss Tang, I have known you for so many years, I really want to thank you today." Tang Xiyao said: "Thank me for what?" Yan Wuwu said: "Thank you for never treating me as a poor person." As soon as he finished speaking, the rest of the people burst into laughter.

Tang Xiaowan took Tang Xiyao's hand and walked aside, full of emotion, and said, "I didn't expect you and my sisters to be able to live next to each other in the end, and it will be convenient to move around in the future." Tang Xiyao said: "Sister, if you want to move around, you will come to me, I will not go to the Hidden Sword Villa." You know, they have a grudge against Brother Ye. ”

Ye Fan looked a little embarrassed, and said with a smile: "Miss Tang don't have to worry about this festival, half a year ago, Brother Ye turned the tide and eliminated the chaos invisibly, not only saved the court and the emperor, but also saved the Central Plains martial arts from the danger of turmoil." Every time I mention it, my Ye family admires it wholeheartedly. As for the grievances between my third brother and him, my eldest brother has already solved them, and in front of Brother Ye's great benevolence, this little grievance is nothing. At most, the two of them ignore each other, but they will never hold grudges again, please rest assured. Tang Xiyao couldn't help but be overjoyed when she heard Ye Fan say.

Tang Xiaowan pulled Tang Xiyao's hand and said: "Your Ye Suiyun is amazing now, now the entire martial arts knows that it is almost his own strength to reverse the situation of the war between the two alliances, and now his momentum can really be said to be famous all over the world, my uncle joked that there is no need to hold the famous sword conference next year, and it will be considered a complete merit to give the sword directly to Ye Suiyun." The two sisters trembled with laughter, and Ye Fan interjected: "But the eldest brother still has a sentence that is not a joke, I am afraid that in the future, the major events of the Central Plains martial arts will not be able to bypass Brother Ye." ”

At this time, in the side hall, Ye Suiyun and Leng Xiaoxiao brewed a pot of tea, and the two talked in detail for a long time. learned from Leng Xiaoxiao that the court has been turned upside down in the past six months. After the emperor returned to Chang'an from Nanping Mountain, within ten days, he cut off all the forces of Li Linfu and his party in the court by thunderous means. Then, on the grounds of old age, Li Linfu was ordered to resign and retire. Soon after, Yu Shitai impeached him for dereliction of duty while in office, so the emperor issued another decree to arrest Li Linfu and put him in prison, and finally secretly gave him a cup of poisoned wine in prison, so that he could cut himself.

After hearing this, Ye Suiyun sighed: "Li Linfu has exhausted his organs, and the world has been restless for so many years. It's a pity that evil can't prevail over good, and in the end it only ended miserably. ”

Leng Xiaoxiao said: "After all, he has been in power for more than 20 years. died in such a way, and the emperor took care of his face. ”

Ye Suiyun asked: "I don't know something, your Tiance Mansion has been investigating and collecting clues from all sides for many years, and so many people have died and cannot shake the emperor's trust in Li Linfu, why did the emperor suddenly change his mind this time, and finally believed that Li Linfu had rebelled." ”

Leng Xiaoxiao said: "Then it depends on who speaks." In the past, the emperor had never really trusted the Tiance Mansion in his heart, so no matter what evidence we came up with, it was useless. ”

"What do you mean..." Ye Suiyunhu said suspiciously.

Leng Xiaoxiao showed a playful look and asked rhetorically, "Guess who finally made the emperor make up his mind?" Ye Suiyun shook his head, and Leng Xiaoxiao continued: "It's really unthinkable, it's actually Yang Zhao." ”

"Is that him?" Ye Suiyun was surprised.

Leng Xiaoxiao nodded and said: "If it weren't for him, Li Linfu's biggest confidant, who could come up with those top secret evidences of Li, that is, those secret letters that contacted all parties." In addition, the emperor also knew that Yang Zhao was different from Tiance Mansion, he had always been Li Linfu's person. So when he stood up and denounced it, Li Linfu's death knell sounded. ”

Ye Suiyun said: "I thought he was the most loyal person to Li Linfu... ”

Leng Xiaoxiao said: "This is called losing the pawn to protect the handsome, as soon as Yang Zhao heard that the war in Nanping Mountain had not started, he immediately knew that the big thing was going to happen." In order to protect himself, he immediately secretly reported Li Linfu for rebellion, and at the same time, the officers of the 16th Guard of the Southern Ya also appeared one after another, expressing their loyalty to the emperor. In the final analysis, these wall grasses are only for themselves, how can they be loyal. After hearing this, Ye Suiyun was surprised, but felt a chill drifting in his heart, and he couldn't speak.

Leng Xiaoxiao looked at his bad face and said with a smile: "Don't mention this, say something happy." This time in front of the emperor, I can praise your merits. Your Majesty has praised you and said that he will reward you with a knight, but you don't have to worry, I have already excused you. ”

Ye Suiyun let out a long breath and said, "That's okay." ”

Leng Xiaoxiao said: "But you must go to the capital with me to meet the Holy Thanksgiving." This section is not unavoidable. Ye Suiyun had no choice but to nod in agreement, and suddenly remembered something again, and asked, "Do you know what happened to Miss Li?" ”

Leng Xiaoxiao thought for a moment and said, "You said Li Muchen? She was also implicated, although it was not a capital crime, but since the Prime Minister's Mansion was sealed, she was denounced as a citizen and sent to Northern Xinjiang, and then there was no news. Ye Suiyun was silent.

At this time, Bao Fengfeng and Xiumei burst into the side hall angrily and shouted: "Brother Suiyun, you quickly give a comment, the two of us want to live in the two wings of the East Garden, Ah Bu said no." Ye Suiyun smiled: "If you want to live, just tell him what I said." The second daughter went happily.

Leng Xiaoxiao couldn't help but smile: "You have become a rich man, and you will be in charge of a large family in the future, but you can no longer think about being at ease." Ye Suiyun shook his head with a wry smile.

At this time, Ah Bu rushed in again and said, "Master... ”

Ye Suiyun interrupted impatiently: "With such a big house, even if it is enough for a few hundred people, they can live in whichever room they want." ”

Ah Bu was startled and said timidly: "No. . . Master, there was a strange person outside, I invited him in, but he ignored me, so you should go and have a look. ”

Ye Suiyun was slightly surprised and came to the gate alone. I saw a slender figure standing under the willow tree not far away, and it turned out to be the mysterious person Yan Ying.

Ye Suiyun stepped forward to salute, and before he could speak, Yan Ying had already said: "You should understand now, why did I stop you from dealing with Yang Zhao three or four times, right?" ”

Ye Suiyun was stunned for a moment, then nodded and smiled: "I understand." ”

Yan Ying said: "The best way to build a solid city is to break through it from the inside. Especially if there are people in it who can take advantage of it. ”

Ye Suiyun hugged his fists and said, "I've been taught." ”

Yan Ying looked at the noisy people in front of him and said, "Although the final result is still expected. But the world is changing rapidly, and any one of these variables can turn the whole thing around. Ye Suiyun, you have also worked hard. ”

Ye Suiyun smiled and said, "Actually, I have always had a question in my heart, I wonder if my predecessors can answer it today?" ”

Yan Ying said: "You mean my identity?" ”

Ye Suiyun said: "Xi Yao once mentioned that you are her uncle of the Tang Sect, representing the family to help the Haoqi Alliance. But the strange thing is that when I first met you, I knew that you were the immortal smoke of the Valley of the Wicked. ”

Yan Ying showed a rare smile and asked, "What do you think?" ”

Ye Suiyun looked at his smiling expression, and suddenly realized something in his mind, and couldn't help but be shocked and said, "Ah... Yes... I see... 'Yan Ying'... 'Smoke Shadow'... , you are not only the smoke that is not extinguished, but also the shadow of the sky... ”

Yan Ying laughed and said, "Ye Suiyun, you are really smart. No wonder Li Fu said that you are the key person who turned the tide of the situation. ”

Ye Suiyun asked: "It's even more strange to say this, the dispute between the two alliances is incompatible, which side are you on?" ”

Yan Ying said: "I don't help each other, or both sides help." He turned his head and saw that Ye Suiyun's expression seemed to be even more confused, so he said: "For me, the Haoqi Alliance and the Valley of the Wicked Man have no matter whether they are righteous or evil, and there is no right or wrong. Whoever has a weak momentum will help him, and if any side is too strong, I will secretly suppress it. ”

"This... Why is that? Ye Suiyun asked.

Yan Ying said: "Everything in the world needs to be balanced, just like a plank, it is the safest to put it flat." Any one end uplifts this equilibrium, and everything that exists on the plank is not at peace. And I'm the weight that balances the plank. Ye Suiyun seemed to understand whether he understood or not, and chewed the meaning of his words carefully.

Yan Ying said: "Since Nanping Mountain, there have been rumors that Xie Yuan secretly killed Sikong Zhongping, although there is no evidence, his prestige is not as good as before. On the other hand, Wen Xiaoyue's appearance caused the villain Gu Ma to return to Nanshan, and there was no movement. Both sides have returned to calm from the momentum, and it happens that the balance of power is again. Tracing back to the source, the upheaval of these two alliances is all caused by you, Ye Suiyun, isn't your role in it also a weight? ”

Seeing that Ye Suiyun was in a daze, Yan Ying said: "I have said too much, I didn't come here today for you, but for Xiyao." Ye Suiyun suddenly refreshed his senses, and Yan Ying said: "My brother Tang Aotian has been seriously ill for a long time, and his body is not as good as before, so he plans to entrust the position of the master of the door. The old grandmother discussed with everyone for many days and decided to let Xiyao take over the position of the head of the door. ”

Ye Suiyunqi said: "She? How can a girl be the master of the door. ”

Yan Ying said: "The re-election of the door master this time is for long-term planning, so I decided to choose from the fourth generation. Because of the indoctrination of the older generation, Wuxin and others have competed with each other since childhood and are not convinced by each other, so it is not suitable for anyone. Only Xiyao and these brothers have a good relationship, and when they heard that she was chosen, everyone had no objections. ”

Ye Suiyun said: "Isn't there still her sister?" ”

Yan Ying said: "Xiaowan has a weak temperament, and her viewing pattern is limited, so it is not suitable. After he finished speaking, he turned around and said, "The words have been brought, you tell Xi Yao to let her return to Tangjiabao as soon as possible." ”

At this time, Tang Xiyao shouted in the distance: "Brother Ye... It turned out that she saw Ye Suiyun going out for too long, and she was a little worried and came out to look for it. When he came closer, he asked, "What are you doing here?" ”

Ye Suiyun said: "Me and your second uncle... As he spoke, he turned his head and found that Yan Ying had long since disappeared. He knew that this strange man had always been like this, and he didn't pay much attention to it. Then he told the matter of the Tang Gate.

After listening to this, Tang Xiyao said, "I can't be the master of the door?" I should go back and see if my dad is fake. Ye Suiyun asked when to leave, Tang Xiyao said: "Leng Xiao, you want to go to the capital to face the saint, I will go with you, and then the two of us will go back to Tangjiabao together, okay?" Ye Suiyun thought for a while, nodded and said, "It's okay, anyway, Wuying still owes me a good drink, just begging for a drink." But here ... Tang Xiyao said: "With Ah Bu and Xiaomo here, and so many people to help take care of it, you can rest assured." ”

At this time, fireworks and firecrackers rang out outside the gate, and all the furniture and objects were properly placed. Everyone was beaming, and came to the outside of the door to form a circle, beckoning Ye Suiyun and Tang Xiyao to come over. Lu Maoyun walked into the middle with a large plaque of mahogany and gold wire.

Leng Xiaoxiao said to Ye Suiyun: "This empty plaque is a special gift from Your Majesty, Ye Daxia, please give your home a name." ”

Ye Suiyun picked up the golden pen and put it in his hand, this moment of the past, the ups and downs seemed to slip through his heart, he thought for a while and said: "Everything about me started from the autumn rain. After saying that, the pen was full of ink, and he slid his waist and wrote the words 'Autumn Rain Villa' on the plaque.

----------------------------------------------------

A few days later, Ye Suiyun, Tang Xiyao and the others followed Leng Xiaoxiao's convoy and returned to Chang'an City, the capital of the Tang Dynasty. The ninth sister also received the message and greeted her at the city gate early.

After resting for the night, Ye Suiyun and Leng Xiaoxiao entered the palace together the next morning to meet the emperor. In the Zichen Palace, Emperor Li Longji took the lead in summoning Ye Suiyun, and after some praise and commendation, he said: "I originally wanted to add an official to you and stay in the capital for a long time in the future, but I was dissuaded by Leng Aiqing, saying that you are difficult to leave your homeland and do not like to live outside. I had no choice but to give up. ”

Ye Suiyun kowtowed and said: "Thank you, Your Majesty, what General Leng said is true, the grass people are born in the countryside, and they really have no talent for officials." It's better to live a farming life in your hometown. ”

Li Longji smiled and nodded: "Okay, you don't want to be reluctant." If you want some other reward, you might as well say so. ”

Ye Suiyun said: "The grass people do have a matter that I beg Your Majesty to forge. Li Longji said: "After that, I will definitely allow it." ”

Ye Suiyun said: "Miss Mu Chen of the Li family, she met the grass people when she was a child, and she is a good friend. I beg your Majesty to pardon her charges and allow her to return to her homeland. ”

Li Longji's face changed, and he said, "Are you talking about Li Muchen, the daughter of Li Linfu?" Ye Suiyun said: "Exactly." ”

Leng Xiaoxiao saw that the emperor turned from joy to anger, and hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, Ye Suiyun and the Li family's sinner girl met Yu Wei, and they were indeed childhood friends. Ye Suiyun is a person who values love and righteousness, and when he learned that the Li family's sinful daughter was sent to Northern Xinjiang, he thought that she was just a weak body, and it must be very difficult, so he pleaded, there was no other intention, and Weichen could guarantee it. Seeing that the emperor's face had improved a little, Leng Xiaoxiao continued: "At the beginning, Ye Suiyun wanted to help Tiance Mansion fight against Li Linfu and his party, but it can be said that he died and survived. Therefore, the minister absolutely believed that he was just worried about his old friend, and nothing else. Not to mention that there will be a little bit of something to do with Li Linfu, I hope Your Majesty will know it. ”

Li Longji nodded, and then said: "Mu Chen, this child I grew up with, I know her temperament very well, and I believe that she doesn't know what her father is planning. That being the case, this is not a bad thing. Of course, I can't break my word, so I'll do what he asks. Ye Suiyun and Leng Xiaoxiao were overjoyed, and thanked him.

The two stepped aside side by side, and said coldly: "Don't worry, since Your Majesty has agreed, everything else will be easy to do, I will send the border army to carefully investigate, and I will definitely find her and take her back to Chang'an." ”

Ye Suiyun asked, "Does she still have acquaintances in Chang'an?" Leng Xiaoxiao was stunned, I didn't think about it. Ye Suiyun said: "She is a woman who has no relatives and no reason, if there are relatives to take refuge, it is just that." Otherwise, I will trouble you to send her to the Autumn Rain Villa. Leng Xiaoxiao nodded in agreement.

At this time, I heard the singer shouting: "The Chinese book has ordered Lord Yang to meet you." Ye Suiyun looked and saw Yang Zhao wearing a vermilion robe with large sleeves, a jade ribbon tied around his waist, and a lacquered yarn Wu Ben cage crown on his head, and came to the palace triumphantly, kowtowing to the emperor and shouting long live.

Leng Xiaoxiao said in a low voice: "Zhongshu Ling is the head of the hundred officials, it used to be Li Linfu, and now it is given to the surname Yang." Ye Suiyun sighed secretly in his heart, Yang Zhao can be said to have ascended to the sky in one step, no wonder he is so radiant.

Li Longji said with a smile: "This time the case of opposing the party was cracked, thanks to Yang Aiqing's timely collection of evidence and the stabilization of the Nanya army, which can be said to be a great contribution." ”

Yang Zhao said: "The ministers don't dare to take credit, it is all relying on His Majesty's holy virtues, and the world is in the heart." Any young person who wants to make waves is just a mantis arm to block the car. The minister just did what he had to do. ”

Li Longji nodded and said: "Okay, if you don't succeed, you are really a pillar of the imperial court." I remember Yang Qing's loyal heart, and today I give you the name 'National Loyalty', and I hope that Aiqing will be loyal to the monarch and patriotism in the future, self-denial for the public, and share worries for me and the court. ”

Yang Zhao was overjoyed, knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly, shouting: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace." It was a great honor to be given the name by the emperor, and Yang Zhao changed his name to Yang Guozhong from then on.

At this time, the singer shouted again: "The envoy of the Three Towns Festival, the king of Dongping County will meet you." Leng Xiaoxiao said: "It's An Lushan." ”

Ye Suiyun looked at it, and saw a big black and short fat man walking into outside the temple gate, this person's face was like orange peel pits, his hair was combed into countless small braids behind his head, and his body was fat like a ball, swaying from side to side when he walked into the hall, snorting and panting heavily. A pair of small eyes narrowed into a slit, as if they were laughing all the time. Ye Suiyun couldn't help but be a little surprised, thinking of An Qingxu's flying and domineering, but it turned out that the backer behind him was actually this respect.

Leng Xiaoxiao's eyes were like ice, and he said in a low voice of hatred: "An Lushan killed innocents indiscriminately in the name of rebellion this time. Regardless of whether it is really Li Linfu's henchmen, as long as they do not agree with him on weekdays, or the generals he does not like, they will all be detained and executed for violating the party this time. Many good generals were lost in the various military guards. ”

Ye Suiyun asked, "That day's Ce Mansion... ”

Leng Xiaoxiao said: "Tiance Mansion doesn't dare to frame him at will, after all, the emperor knows in his heart that Tiance Mansion has been Li Linfu's sworn enemy for many years, and the surname An also knows it." After that, he sighed, and said: "I just hate that it was too late for me to get the news, and when I escorted the emperor back to Beijing, everything was already settled." I just can't save people. ”

Ye Suiyun suddenly remembered the lame bandit Duguba he had met in Hujianling, and later found out that he was actually An Qingxu's subordinate. Looking at An Lushan in front of him again, he couldn't help but feel faintly uneasy, but he couldn't say anything wrong.

In the main hall, the emperor also praised An Lushan, praising him for his vigorous and resolute actions in the action to exterminate the rebel party, and did not drag the mud and water, and uprooted all the generals at all levels in the army who belonged to the Li rebel party. Li Longji finally said: "It is a great blessing for me and the imperial court to have the loyal assistance of the two Qing families. The two of you are one scholar and one martial artist, so why worry that my Heavenly Empire is not prosperous and the country's fortunes are not prosperous. Hearing this, all the ministers in the palace shouted long live, and turned around to congratulate Yang Guozhong and An Lushan. These two people have become the most popular ministers in front of the emperor, and they are also complacent. Emperor Li Longji stroked his long beard lightly and smiled with satisfaction. Ye Suiyun'er, who was standing on the side, listened to the sycophants of the audience, and couldn't help but be a little bored when he looked at the appearance of the ministers.

Coming out of the palace, Leng Xiaoxiao asked when Ye Suiyun would leave Chang'an, and Ye Suiyun replied: "Wait two more days, I will send someone else." ”

-------------------------------------------

Two days later, Ye Suiyun rushed to the Qujiang ferry. It was only because Chao Heng was allowed by the emperor to return to his hometown and was about to return to his homeland, so Ye Suiyun came to see him off.

When Chao Heng saw Ye Suiyun, he couldn't help but be a little surprised, and sighed: "The old Tang Dynasty has been an official for more than 40 years, and he has made countless high-ranking officials and dignitaries. Unexpectedly, when he left, he came to see him off, but only Shaoxia was alone. ”

Ye Suiyun replied: "Lord Chao is loyal and upright, and the younger generation always admires him in his heart. In addition, the adults have helped me, and I will never forget this feeling. Chao Heng looked at Ye Suiyun appreciatively and nodded continuously.

The two talked about Li Linfu's rebellion, and in the end, Chao Heng sighed: "There is one Li Linfu left, and another Yang Guozhong has come, it seems that this disaster of the court is far from over." Oh, and that An Lushan, this person is a wolf and an eagle, and he is not a good person. I don't know when the real peaceful days of the Tang Dynasty will come. The two sighed at each other, helpless.

The ship left the port, and Ye Suiyun waved goodbye to Chao Heng. Seeing the boat drifting away, he suddenly heard someone behind him: "Lord Chao is gone." ”

Ye Suiyun saw that it was Li Fu, and his eyes turned back to the river, only to see that the boat had become a small point, and he said lightly, "You are also here to see off Lord Chao?" It's a pity that it's a step too late. ”

"No," Li replied, "I'm here to find you." ”

Ye Suiyunqi said: "Looking for me?" He saw Li Fu smiling on his face, and couldn't help asking: "Now that everything is over, everything is settled." What's your idea with me? ”

Li Fu didn't answer, but asked: "Thirty years ago, Li Linfu was just a small secretary, with a small official position, and he was not a member of the royal family, let alone a backer. Such a weightless person constructed a huge conspiracy spanning nearly thirty years at that time to seek the throne. Don't you think it's weird? As he spoke, he took out an iron card from his bosom and played with it in his hand.

Ye Suiyun didn't know why he suddenly asked this, and thought for a while: "Who knows?" A careerist like him naturally cannot speculate with common sense in his mind. ”

Li Fu smiled and said: "Also, that Xiaosha was born in Hongchen, and he was mixed in the Western Regions in his early years, but he was a reckless man and a hero, without the slightest court background. But such a person complements Li Linfu, and he has joined forces to stir up the whole world for 30 years. Is it too unreasonable? What is the force that unites two unrelated people? ”

Ye Suiyun's eyes were full of confusion, he had never thought of this, and asked, "What do you want to say?" ”

Li Fu said: "Have you ever thought about a possibility that Li Linfu may not be the ultimate person behind the scenes?" ”

Hearing him say this, Ye Suiyun couldn't help but be shocked. Li Fu continued: "I have used all my strength to investigate Li Linfu and Xiao Sha for several years, although it is not yet confirmable, but tracing the origin of the two of them, it seems that they all point to the same person. He saw that Ye Suiyun was speechless, and asked, "Don't you ask who I am?" ”

Ye Suiyun shook his head and said, "I don't want to know." Li Fu laughed and said, "Okay, I'll send you this news for free." This person is the respected Wang Li Shouli in the current Tang royal family, he is the grandson of Emperor Gaozong, after Prince Zhang Huai。。。。。 ”

Li Fu hadn't finished speaking, but he saw Ye Suiyun's hands swinging wildly, his head shaking like a rattle, and interrupted: "Please don't say it, the affairs of these big people have nothing to do with me, I don't want to know, and I don't want to get involved." If Li Daguan has nothing else to do, he will leave below. As he spoke, he was about to run away with a fist.

Seeing that he seemed to be about to flee, Li Fu hurriedly shouted: "Okay, don't be in a hurry to leave, let's get down to business." Ye Suiyun couldn't help but stop, his face suspicious.

Li Fu smiled slightly, raised his hand slightly, and the iron card in his palm flew out flat. With a snap, Ye Suiyun raised his hand to catch it, and when he looked closely, he saw that the iron card seemed familiar, just like the one that Li Fu had back then, but the text on the back was different. The word 'Haotian' is written on this piece in his hand. Ye Suiyun was stunned, not knowing why.

Li Fu said: "I officially invite you to be one of the nine heavens. ”

Ye Suiyun was dumbfounded, and Li Fu continued: "It is said that one sect, two alliances, three demons, four families, five swords and six factions dominate the entire martial arts, but in fact, only the nine heavens really determine the fate of the world. This iron plate originally belonged to the Sword Master, and now that it is in your hands, it can be regarded as an orderly inheritance. ”

Ye Suiyun was stunned for a while, and muttered to himself, "Nine days, nine days... He remembered Wei Qiwu's words, and suddenly felt a little excited in his heart, and raised his head and asked, "I... Why become Nine Days? ”

Li Fu was stunned for a moment, didn't expect him to ask such a question, and thought for a while: "Because that is the supreme right, you can transform this world according to your own will, including the change of imperial power." ”

Ye Suiyun's expression still seemed to be confused, and Li Fu said again: "Don't you hate fighting, hate killing?" You want all the people in this world to be safe and happy. Now is your chance. Wouldn't it be nice to use your strength to help them, to protect them, to transform the world, so that the people will no longer face suffering? ”

Ye Suiyun's eyes flickered, and he asked with some excitement: "This... Is it possible? ”

Li Fu said: "Of course, this is the right granted to the nine heavens. ”

Ye Suiyun looked down at the iron card, his hand trembling slightly. I thought that if what Li Fu said was true, if he had possessed the power of the Nine Heavens earlier, would his relatives still be alive. He inadvertently looked up and saw the white clouds in the sky drifting by, and saw that his grandmother's kind face seemed to appear in the clouds, and he was looking at himself with a smile. Then his father Nie Xiaotian's face also appeared, but it was not half good and half bad, but completely normal. Then followed by Gu Lingling, Qi Yufeng, Li Xiangqiu, Fang Qingya, Sikong Zhongping, Yin Tianci, Bao Muxia and many other old people's faces flashed one by one, and even in the end, even Li Linfu, Assasin, Xiao Sha, Qian Zonglong, Yuwen Brothers and others, and even Fang Jun's shadow slipped in front of him. These people who they love or hate, now that they think about it, aren't they all directly or indirectly, losing their lives in the pursuit of power and **?

Thinking of this, Ye Suiyun couldn't help but shudder, only to feel that the iron card in his hand seemed to be unusually cold, he turned his head to Li Fu and said, "What you said is indeed heartwarming. But in my opinion, a right only counts when someone gives it to you, otherwise it cannot override their dignity, even if it can take their lives. These years have taught me that once the vortex is opened, it will never stop, and that I don't deserve or want such a terrible thing. After speaking, he flicked the iron card and handed it back to Li Fu. Smiling slightly, he turned around and walked towards the city gate, he knew that Tang Xiyao must be waiting for him there.

Li Fu held the iron plate and stood in place, looking like he couldn't figure it out. At this time, Qiu Yeqing came up and asked, "Brother Fu, what's wrong, why did he leave?" ”

The corners of Li Fu's mouth curled, and he laughed out loud, and Qiu Yeqing looked at him puzzled. Li Fu said: "I always thought that I was guiding him. Now it seems ... Qiu Yeqing frowned, only to feel more and more incomprehensible.

Li Fu looked up, only to see that the fiery red sunset seemed to be burning in the sky at this time, and the afterglow was slanting with ten thousand golden rays, and Ye Suiyun's figure was gradually moving away, but the shadow cast on the ground was getting longer and longer.

(End of book)
