Volume 1 The Waves Rise and Fall Chapter 3 Entering and Leaving Beijing
Song Jingshan took a lot of effort, and finally he was able to enter the customs after showing off his friend's gift and the short dagger.
Roller Pass, is the last pass to the capital, but also the most stringent guard, after passing the Roller Pass, all a horse Pingchuan, the road is much easier to walk, in all senses.
Li Huairen turned his head to look at the scholar and asked in a low voice, "Zijin, can't we really tell the truth?"
The scholar gently closed the yellowed ancient book in his hand, nodded and said, "If the young master still wants to live, he can only do as I say." β
The girl Lu Zhixing drooped her head, looking listless, she was already discouraged when she heard this, and she was even more disappointed, so she had to say nothing.
Seeing that Li Huairen still didn't give up, the scholar Li Zijin had no choice but to speak patiently: "Have you ever thought about it, young master, for more than three months, why along the way, the guards didn't look surprised after knowing that we were from Taiping County, and the road was unimpeded, and no one arrested us for questioning." β
Li Huairen frowned and said, "I thought about it before, could it be that the news hasn't had time to reach here?"
Lu Zhixing said angrily: "You still don't believe you if you are naΓ―ve, we little fart children can only take a carriage back to Beijing, but if Uncle Song is in a hurry, although he can't go against the wind, at least he has the ability to climb mountains and mountains, how can he choose some big roads along the way, isn't it much faster to take small roads? Three months is enough for a round trip, not to mention those monks with a high realm, sword cultivation and imperial sword, the capital to Taiping County is at most half a month, and the qi refiners can travel against the wind, and they can also arrive within a month." β
The scholar nodded.
Young Master Li Huairen suddenly realized: "Then you mean that someone has blocked the news? Now no one in the entire capital knows that Taiping County has been destroyed?"
The girl first nodded, then shook her head, and said, "There is such a possibility, but it may not be." β
The scholar sighed, "I'm afraid it's worse." β
Young Master Li Huairen looked at a scholar and a girl suspiciously, thinking to himself how could these two people's heads be smarter than this young master?
Li Huairen was curious: "What could be worse?"
The scholar and the girl said in unison: "The will of the Son of Heaven." β

After entering the capital, Song Jingshan sold the carriage to a few young people who were about to leave, several of whom were students of Ziwei Academy, and went to Daoxuan Academy on the order of Li Haotang, the deputy head of the academy, to "exchange schools" with several students sent to the capital by Daoxuan Academy, so as to promote the relationship between the two academies.
In the Daxuan Dynasty, the relationship between the academy and the temple was extremely delicate.
Therefore, as early as ten years ago, there was a meeting between the three academies, and the three parties originally wanted to twist into a rope and establish a three-academy alliance.
It's just that later, for some reason, the results of the talks were not satisfactory, and the alliance naturally did not come to fruition, only Ziwei Academy and Daoxuan Academy had a close relationship and often "changed schools".
The remote Taiping Academy was isolated.
In fact, as early as the beginning of the year, the mountain master of Ziwei Academy personally led more than a dozen college students to Taiping Academy for a study tour, wanting to retalk about the alliance of the three colleges, but Taiping Academy and Ziwei Academy have never been good friends, so it is necessary for the mountain master Zhuge Yi to go in person to contact feelings.
The four members of the group all changed into relatively simple cloth clothes and straw shoes, abandoned the car and walked.
Song Jingshan took three teenagers and girls to choose the most prosperous street in the city and walked along the road, and suddenly said: "Find a restaurant to live in." β
Li Huairen asked again, "Uncle Song, why don't we go directly to Ziwei Academy?"
The girl looked at him like a fool and said, "The capital is mixed, and there are chess pieces in the three sects and nine streams, not to mention the palaceΒ·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β· The people of the government, a few of us came in from the Roller Pass with great fanfare, and as soon as we entered Beijing, we were going straight to the Ziwei Academy in the south, guess whether we went to the academy first, or Huangquan?"
Li Huairen felt uncomfortable when he heard this, and glared at the girl angrily, and he was about to have a seizure.
Fortunately, the scholar Li Zijin patted his young master's shoulder and said, "Young master, only women and villains are difficult to raise, we don't have the same knowledge as the little girl's family, ah~"
Hearing this, Li Huairen's face looked better, and he smiled with his hands on his hips and said: "Zijin is right, this young master is not as knowledgeable as you, a little girl, and adults have their own adults, hum." β
Seeing this scene, the scholar and the girl glanced at each other, and both covered their mouths and smiled.
Song Jingshan was still worried about how to mediate the relationship between the young master of the Li family and his own young lady, and he also showed a relaxed expression when he saw this scene at this moment, the scholar of the Li family is really a strange person, and it is no wonder that those few families in the hundred families also tried their best to take this person away.

A few young men in Confucian shirts sat in the carriage of a carriage that they had just bought at a low price, and they were in good condition, whispering.
A young man whispered, "I'm afraid it's not just as simple as changing schools when I go to Daoxuan Academy, right?"
Someone next to him chimed in: "It's not so simple to think about, didn't you just change schools half a year ago, usually we and Daoxuan Academy change schools once a year, and they have never changed in ten years." β
Someone else said: "I think so, do you know, I heard that the mountain lord has not come back yet, it's been three months, how can it be Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·?"
Another young man in a Confucian shirt hurriedly stretched out his index finger to his mouth and made a silent gesture. said: "Shhh, a few junior brothers, don't say more, be careful that the wall has ears." β
As soon as these words came out, everyone was silent.
The oldest man in a Confucian shirt outside the carriage said in a deep voice: "Senior brothers, sit tight, let's set off and go to Daoxuan!"
As soon as the words fell, a wisp of wind blew through the horse's hooves, and I saw that the old horse, like a god, raised his head and jumped hard.
The dark horse jumped up, and the Confucian students walked towards the sky.

A group of four people found a restaurant, and did not choose to live in the extremely ostentatious Tianzi No. 1 room, but retreated to the second place in the "Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang", the Dizi room.
If you live in the Tianzi room, it is inevitable to expose your wealth, live in the Xuanhuang two-character room, and close to the villain, Song Jingshan thought about it, so he asked for a place room under the suggestion of the scholar Li Zijin.
For the sake of safety, the four of them only lived in one room, let Miss Lu sleep in the bed, and the three "big men" spread mats on the ground and made bunks on the ground.
At first, the young master of the Li family had an opinion, feeling that he and Lu Zhixing were clearly from famous families, why couldn't she sleep if she slept well?
Of course, Lu Zhixing refused to give in, so he humiliated Li Huairen a few words.
Seeing that the two sides are about to fight.
If it weren't for the scholar Li Zijin taking a detour in it, I was afraid that the two would have a lot of trouble.
Song Jingshan blew out the candle and said softly: "Miss, Gongzi Li, Brother Zijin, it's not early, let's rest early." β
Along the way, the young master of the Li family and the young lady of the Lu family mostly played their own games.
However, Li Zijin likes to talk to Song Jingshan from time to time about some parents' shortcomings, ups and downs, and then after a long time, the relationship is familiar, and Song Jingshan likes Li Zijin very much, and the two are commensurate with each other, and they do not shy away from the difference in seniority.
