Liaodong is not a state, a prefecture, a county, but refers to the three states outside the Guanwai including Liaozhou, Fengzhou, and Youzhou, of which Liaozhou borders the Golden Horde, Fengzhou is in the middle, and Youzhou is bordered by Yanzhou and Zhili respectively. The plains north of the Changhe River, such as the eastern part of Yanzhou, the northern part of Qizhou, the southern part of Youzhou, and most of Zhili, are also called Heshuo.

Although the imperial court had a governor of Youyan, the main jurisdiction of the governor of Youyan was in the area of Yanzhou, and Youzhou was still firmly in the hands of the governor of Liaodong. The reason why this is so is because Youzhou is the place where the Qin family and the Mending Heaven Sect have been operating for many years, and the two are not unified originally, but in the Qin Qing generation, he finally gathered the power of the head of the Qin family and the head of the Mending Heaven Sect, and then served as the head of the Forgetful Sect, becoming the actual alliance leader of the five sects in Liaodong, so there is no one in the entire Youzhou who can compete with Qin Qing, and some people even joke that although Qin Qing is not called a lonely widow like Taiyun, he is already a veritable king of Liao. In addition, Qin Daofang served as the governor of Qizhou, Qizhou and Youzhou face each other across the sea, if it weren't for the fact that there was a Qingwei Sect in the middle, I am afraid that the power of the wealthy Qin family has extended to the Heshuo area.

Under these circumstances, Qin Qing decided which governor to support, and which governor would be able to dominate the power of Youzhou. It is precisely because of the support of the Liaodong gentry led by Qin Qing that Zhao Zheng was able to take charge of the power of the three states, standing outside the pass, rejecting the Golden Horde from the outside, and looking at the temples of the emperor inside, becoming a pillar of optimus for the imperial party to compete with the later party.

The territorial scope of Youzhou has varied from dynasty to dynasty. As early as the previous dynasty of the Great Jin Dynasty, the three states of Liaodong outside the pass were occupied by the Golden Horde, so the territory of Youzhou was divided into the area of today's imperial capital and Zhili, until the Emperor Taizu of this dynasty expelled the Golden Horde army, recaptured the three states of Liaodong, and set the capital of the imperial capital, according to the old system of dividing Kyushu in ancient times, the north is Taiyin, so the territory of Youzhou is moved north, from the inside of the pass to the outside of the pass, and Qizhou across the sea. The original Youzhou has become today's Zhili Prefecture.

The former capital of Youzhou is now the capital of the imperial capital, the capital of Youzhou is now called Chaoyang Mansion, the south is bordered by Beihai, the west is connected to Yanzhou, and the grassland is looking at the north.

The ancestral house of the Qin family is located in the Dragon City, not to mention how the ancestors of the Qin family are Xuanhe, among the three brothers of the Qin family who now support the portal, the eldest master Qin Daozheng, that is, the later Qin Qing, is the suzerain of the Heavenly Sect and the Forgetful Sect, and is also the leader of the five sects in Liaodong, and the first person in the Taixuan list, as long as the old Xuan does not come out, he is invincible in the world; the second lord Qin Daoyuan, presiding over the affairs of the Qin family, is not the head of the family, but is in charge of the power of the Qin family, under his control, the Qin family and the Zhutianzong completely monopolized the maritime trade in Liaodong and Beihai, making the Qin family and the Li family become one of the richest men in the entire Jiangbei; , pacified the rebellion of the Qingyang Sect in Qizhou, was a high and powerful official, and was a feudal official. With these three in charge, even if the Qin family is just a rising rookie, it is enough to be proud of Liaodong, not to mention that the Qin family itself is a family that has taken root and operated in Liaodong for many years, and all kinds of relationships are intertwined and deep-rooted.

The Qin family's mansion was rebuilt from the site of the Murong family's palace, and for hundreds of years, the Qin family's mansion has been continuously expanded, occupying half of the land, which is three times the size of the mansion of ordinary powerful people, second only to the mansion of the vassal king. The entire Qin family mansion can be divided into three parts, namely the main courtyard where the head of the family lives, the east courtyard where the second master lives, and the west courtyard where the third master lives. It's just that for so many years, the eldest lord Qin Qing has lived in the Mending Heaven Sect for a long time, and the eldest lady does not go home often, and the third master is an official and has not come back for more than ten years, so the main courtyard and the west courtyard are often idle, only the second old man's east courtyard is quite lively, and there is a normal big family.

However, there has been some movement in the main courtyard recently, and the servants and maids who have been very leisurely for most of the year have begun to get busy, because the eldest lady Qin Su is back, and with it, there are also several friends of the eldest lady, and now that the eldest lord is not at home, the eldest lady is the master of the main courtyard, so naturally she should not be lazy.

The winter in Liaodong is very cold, so cold that a basin of water is splashed out, and the water freezes in mid-air. The snow in Liaodong is also very heavy, the heavy snow can collapse the house, and even when you wake up, the door of the house is sealed by the heavy snow, and the sky and the earth are white, and there is nothing left, which is an unimaginable scene in the water town in the south of the Yangtze River.

However, the summer in Liaodong is not too different from Kannai, and in this early summer, there are also small rivers and green scenery. Qinfu covers a vast area, naturally indispensable to lead water into the house, in the back house to build an area of more than 10 acres of large lake, in the summer season, sparkling, rippling, can be boating on the lake. In the middle of the lake, there is a three-storey building built on the island, which was originally where Qin Qing lived alone and cultivated himself, but after the death of his wife, he did not live in the house because of seeing things and thinking about people, and moved to the Mending Heaven Sect, so he gave this place to his only daughter Qin Su.

In other words, this three-story building is Miss Qin's boudoir land.

Although it is the residence of her daughter's family, Qin Su has not changed the layout, and still follows her father's old layout pattern, so she can't see too much of her daughter's fat powder, which is majestic. The building is divided into three floors, the first floor is the place where the guests drink tea, the seats are arranged clearly, there are the main and guest points; the second floor is the banquet hall, where you can set up a banquet with wine, and the view is near the lake; the third floor is the bedroom and the study, outsiders are not allowed to enter.

At this time, in the warm pavilion near the lake on the third floor, Lu Yanbing was stretching himself into a "big" word, lying on the soft couch by the window, letting the sun fall on him, half-squinting: "Comfortable, stealing half a day of leisure, what you want in life is nothing more than this, if I were you, there is such a fairy land, and then there is a lover who shelters me from the wind and rain, where will I run around the world." ”

Qin Su sat not far away and quipped: "There is a good person who has known you for more than 20 years, and you haven't been moved?"

"Li Xuandu?" Lu Yanbing pursed his lips, Li Xuan was not in front of him at this time, and he didn't bother to call his senior brother: "According to what you said, we are indeed childhood sweethearts, but have you heard a word, most of the people who regard their sister as a treasure do not have a sister, and most of the people who pretend to be reasonable customers will pull the shelf, saying that they are passers-by and most of them are not passers-by, and those brothers in the book who spoil their sister to heaven are all lies, especially those of us who are about the same age, we are together all day long, how can there be anything to love each other, and it is almost the same to look at each other." Besides, the men of the old Li family are not reliable, not to mention far away, let's just say that my aunt who has been missing for many years, and the deceased sister, which one ended well? I can be regarded as seeing through, even if I Lu Yanbing will not marry for the rest of my life and go to Cihangzong to be a nun, I will not marry the man of the old Li family. ”

Qin Su said with interest: "What's wrong with the man of the old Li family?"

Lu Yanbing "hummed" twice: "The men of the old Li family, rare in the sky, unparalleled on the earth, you can marry if you want, don't take me, I still want to live for a few more years." ”

Qin Su stretched out his hand and pinched Lu Yanbing's ear: "Dead girl, the realm cultivation is standing still, and her ability to speak yin and yang is on the rise." ”

Lu Yanbing, who was grabbed by the ear, stretched out his hand to open Qin Su's hand, and said loudly: "I'm telling the truth, my master, you have already seen him, what kind of person is he, don't I need to say more? Every time I see his old man, my legs are weak." There is also my uncle, now called Li Rushi, formerly called Li Daoshi, you should also have heard that his wife has been missing for many years, and I haven't seen him go out to look for it. And then it's my third senior brother, hehe, except for my third sister-in-law, I'm afraid there are not a few who are merciful. What do you say about the men of the old Li family?"

Qin Su shook his head and said, "The Purple Mansion is different from them. ”

Lu Yanbing smiled: "Out of the mud but not stained, clear ripples but not demons, it's really a white lotus." If you watch out for him once, he will bring you a sister back, and when you cry, don't expect me to comfort you. ”

Qin Su chirped: "Nonsense, Zifu is not that kind of person. ”

Lu Yanbing sneered and was silent.

Qin Suzeng's face flushed: "He won't mess with flowers and grass in Zifu, if he is a person who messes with flowers and grass, he won't be alone for so many years." ”

"I didn't meet the right one. Lu Yanbing said: "When he meets the right one, he will show his true colors, if he is really an infatuated person, then he should guard Miss Zhang's lonely grave, a grave in his heart, buried with the dead, why bother to provoke you, Miss Qin?"

Qin Su opened his mouth, but he didn't know how to speak for a while.
