Chapter 94: Luoyang Palace

Luoyang City is the hinterland of the Central Plains, where the Great Song Dynasty was prosperous in the past.

Since the "Duanping into Luo" Yuyu, Luoyang City has been firmly controlled by the Mongols.

From the Song Dynasty to Jin, and then to Mongolia, the changes of the people in power have plunged Luoyang City into great chaos, and the people of Luoyang were panicked in the first few years, and Luoyang's industries were declining, and prosperity withered.

With the passage of time, twenty years have passed since the war and chaos of the past. For ordinary people, 20 years have passed not only time, but also an entire generation. In the past 20 years, Luoyang City has gradually respited from the pain of war, although it does not dare to mention that it is as prosperous as before, but it can be regarded as a peaceful paradise.

The stability and prosperity of Luoyang City today cannot be attributed to the rule of the Mongolian court, but to the largest force in the rivers and lakes here, the Xianwang Mansion.

From top to bottom, shocking white and black, advocating literature and martial arts, and doing business and agriculture, Xianwangfu should be the master of Luoyang.

It is precisely because of the existence of the Xianwang Mansion that the local government does not dare to do whatever it wants, the Green Forest bandits dare not burn and loot, and all walks of life abide by the rules set by the Xianwang Mansion, so that they can be at peace with each other.

The people of Luoyang are not only rich, but also prosperous, and everyone can sleep peacefully.

Because of the means of the Xian Wangfu to penetrate the heavens and the earth, as well as the courage to follow all the rules, no one dares to be wild here, and gradually achieve today's prosperous Luoyang.

Luo Tianjin's name of "King of the Northern Sages" is well-deserved, he not only has a transcendent status in the martial arts, but also is deeply supported by the people. Over time, he has become the real first person in Luoyang City.

In Luoyang City, there may be people who don't know where the door of the palace opens, but everyone must know where the Xianwang Mansion is. Therefore, after Liu Xunyi stepped into the boundary of Luoyang, after a little inquiry, he easily found the first mansion in Luoyang, Xianwang Mansion, located in the south of the city.

Luoyang was the old capital of the Thirteen Dynasties, with a solid heritage, and it was the position of the superior to sit in the north and face the south, but Luo Tianjin built the Xianwang Mansion in the south of the city, sitting in the south and facing the north.

First, it is to echo with the crape myrtle palace in the north of the city. The two are a kind of self-humility, implying that the status of the Xianwang Mansion will never dare to compete with the former palace.

In fact, anyone with a discerning eye can see that Luo Tianjin's move is intended to give an explanation to the Mongolian court, implying that the Xianwang Mansion is only a force in the rivers and lakes, and the power will never be higher than the orthodoxy of the imperial court.

It is precisely because of Luo Tianjin's prudence everywhere that he was able to live in Luoyang for 20 years without attracting the crusade of the Mongol army.

Xianwang's Mansion is magnificent, there are thirteen white marble steps laid outside the Guangliang gate, in front of the jade steps is a square paved with blue bricks, and there is a magnificent glazed archway of 'three rooms, four pillars and seven floors' in the square. In the middle of the archway is a blue stone plaque, carved with four dragons flying and phoenixes dancing on the gilded big character "purple gas comes from the east".

These four words are written by the head of Wudang' Qingfeng Dao, and they were given to Luo Tianjin as a wedding gift twenty years ago.

As for why Qingfeng Dao Chang gave an inscription to a junior 20 years ago? The reason is also well known, Luo Tianjin's wife, Ling Xiaoxiao, is the only daughter of Qingfeng Dao Chang.

Luo Tianjin was able to rise to prominence in the martial arts, and was deeply supported by the six major sects, in addition to his own outstanding means, but also because of Ling Xiaoxiao. In other words, it is because of the strong support of the head of Wudang.

Two dragon and tiger stone carvings of more than three zhang are located on both sides of the gate respectively, and there is a huge plaque hanging in the middle of the gatehouse, and the inscription "Xianwangfu" is three quaint characters.

On the thirteen-level jade steps, there is a big man standing every other level or so, counting the steps, seven guards standing on the left and right, and four guards standing inside and outside the palace gate. Just the gate of the Xianwang Mansion is guarded by twenty-two people day and night, and this kind of posture is not much better than the East and West Mansions, which cannot be described as domineering. This imposing mansion alone is enough to make ordinary people daunted.

Liu Xunyi came to the Xianwang Mansion and was suddenly speechless. He thought that the momentum of Jiangnan Lufu was terrifying enough, but he didn't expect that compared with Xianwang's Mansion, it would be a big deal after all.

It was noon, and the sun was shining, making the Xian Wang's Mansion even more magnificent.

"Virtuous brother!"

Without waiting for Liu Xunyi to approach, Lin Fangda's excited voice suddenly sounded in the mansion. Lin Fangda, who was full of joy, rushed out of the door accompanied by four disciples, and rushed towards Liu Xunyi at a trot.

Lin Fangda jumped down from the jade steps, and before Liu Xunyi could greet him, he had already opened his arms suddenly, and gave Liu Xunyi a big bear hug without saying anything, and laughed: "Brother Xian, you are finally here!"

"Big brother!"

Since Liu Xunyi and Lin Fangda married Jin Lan, Lin Fangda has been digging out his heart and lungs for him, but Liu Xunyi has always had a gap in his heart, after all, he originally wanted to use Lin Fangda. Therefore, the more sincere Lin Fangda was to him, the more guilty Liu Xunyi felt in his heart, and at the same time, the more moved he became.

Feeling Lin Fangda's arms as strong as steel tongs hugging him, Liu Xunyi couldn't help but feel sad and said with a smile: "The little brother is incompetent, which makes the big brother worried!"

"Come on, come on, let me take a good look!" Lin Fang pushed Liu Xunyi away, staring at a pair of excited tiger eyes on Liu Xunyi's body and looking at it busily, up and down, back and forth, carefully inspecting it. Seeing that Liu Xun's clothes were fine, Fang Cai grinned: "Okay, okay, if you are safe and sound, I will rest assured! I have been worried all day in the past two months, and I should not let you track down the whereabouts of the man in black by yourself." If something happens to you, how can I be worthy of brotherhood?"

Lin Fangda's words were sincere, Liu Xunyi was moved, grabbed Lin Fangda's shoulder with his backhand, and said with a smile: "Isn't the younger brother back unscathed? This is the test of the Luo Mansion Lord for me, if the eldest brother helps in this matter, how can the younger brother gain the trust of the Luo Mansion Lord?"

"In the future, you and my brother will work together to serve the government and will never be separated again. Lin Fangda nodded heartily and smiled.

"How did Big Brother know that I would be here today?" Liu Xunyi changed his words and asked curiously, "Could it be just a coincidence?"

"How can there be such a coincidence in the world?" Lin Fangda smiled bitterly, "The mansion master has issued a strict order, unless you come to the Xianwang Mansion yourself, none of us can go out to find you." I couldn't help it, so I came here every day for a few hours, hoping that you would come sooner. Saying that, Lin Fangda seemed to suddenly remember something, raised his eyebrows, quickly stepped forward, and asked in his ear, "Brother Xian, have you found the main things in the mansion?"

"If I don't find it, how dare I be bored?" Liu Xunyi replied, "Big brother, don't worry, the storm and rain map is on me at this moment." ”

"That's very good!" Lin Fang was overjoyed, hurriedly grabbed Liu Xunyi's arm, and smiled affectionately, "The mansion master went out today, and it is estimated that he will come back very late." I'll take you in to rest first, and then I'll go to see the lord of the mansion in the evening. ”

Outside the gate of the mansion, the four disciples waited there in a proper manner, and Lin Fangda summoned them to the front and said to Liu Xunyi: "Brother Xian, these four are brothers I have cultivated single-handedly, and Ning Yu named them "Fushou Kangning", and now they are all my disciples who are on leave. ”

There are eight gates under the Xianwang Mansion, life, death, shock, rest, Du, Jing, open, injury, Lin Fangda is the lord of the door.

"The four of you remember, this is the sworn brother Liu Xunyi that I often mentioned to you before, and you will all be honored as 'Brother Liu' when you see him in the future. Lin Fang took great care to admonish, "Go back and tell the other brothers, if you see him in the future, you will see him like you have seen me, and if you don't respect him, you don't respect me!"

"Obey the orders of the master. Fushou Kangning agreed in unison, and then bowed to Liu Xunyi together: "I've seen Brother Liu!"

"Don't dare to be, looking for clothes in Xialiu, I hope you brothers will take care of it in the future. Liu Xunyi suddenly felt funny when he first heard the names of these four people, but because he was new to the city, he could only hold back his smile and return the salute in turn quite humbly.

"I've prepared the wine and food, you go to the shower and change your clothes first, and then the eldest brother will take care of the wind for you!"

Lin Fangda was in a very good mood, and he couldn't hide his excitement between his words, and while speaking, he was already dragging Liu Xunyi, and couldn't wait to walk towards the mansion.

"Liu Xunyi!"

However, just as they were about to enter the mansion, a low and indifferent voice suddenly came from under the archway. Liu Xunyi frowned, and hurriedly turned around to look back, but saw a burly figure standing under the archway, wearing a hat, holding both hands, and holding a knife in his right hand.

"Have you forgotten the promise you made to me?"

This person slowly raised his head, revealing a vicious face covered with horizontal flesh under the hat, and it was Feng Tianba who came.

"Where do I seem to have seen you?" Before Liu Xunyi could speak, Lin Fangda had already stretched out his hand and pointed at Feng Tianba, thinking hard and meditating towards him, and with this, "Fushou Kangning" also raised his sword and followed.

Lin Fangda's eyes flashed, and he suddenly realized: "Aren't you the Feng Duwei from Quanzhou?" Lin Fangda's expression changed, and he said jokingly, "Feng Daduwei is not good at patrolling the streets in Quanzhou, how can he have the leisure to come to Luoyang?"

A trace of anger flashed in Feng Tianba's eyes, but he ignored Lin Fangda, and asked Liu Xunyi directly, "Liu Xunyi, you shouldn't have forgotten what you said, right?"

"I don't understand what Captain Feng said. No matter what my brother said to you, everything has to be my rules on my territory now. Lin Fangda sneered rather disdainfully, "Forget it, I'm too lazy to talk nonsense with you." Give you two ways, or I'll make some entanglement for you, and send Feng Duwei back to Quanzhou. Either Feng Duwei will live in my Xianwang Mansion, and he will be gone for the rest of his life, and I will ensure that you eat well and live well!" After that, Lin Fang Datou did not return to the underground and ordered, "You take Brother Liu in to rest first, you don't need to interfere in this matter." ”

Feng Tianba's face changed suddenly when he heard this, although he was reckless, he was not a fool. Daring to find trouble in the Xianwang Mansion in Luoyang City is tantamount to asking for a dead end, and Feng Tianba still understands this section.

"Still not going to go?" Lin Fangda looked at the hesitant Feng Tianba, his eyes widened, and his tone instantly became ruthless while raising his voice, "Believe it or not, Lao Tzu chopped you up and fed you to the dog......s?"

"Big brother, slow down!" Just when Lin Fangda threatened Feng Tianba, Liu Xunyi suddenly stepped forward, stretched out his hand and pressed Lin Fangda's shoulder, stared at Feng Tianba with a pale face with solemn eyes, and slowly spoke, "I promised you something, and I will never break my word." I wanted to hand over my errands before I went to you, but since you can't wait to get here, I'll fulfill my promise to you first. As long as you can beat me, I will go back to the Yamen of Pingjiang Mansion with you. ”
