Untying the knot, Liu Xunyi finally abandoned his prejudices, let down his guard, and spoke freely with Xun Qin without reservation.

For a whole afternoon, Liu Xunyi revealed the complex feelings buried deep in his heart, as well as his thoughts about Liu Xunyu, his unwillingness to Zhao Xin, his sadness to Qin Wei, and his gratitude to Zhao Yu.

It's not that Liu Xunyi trusts Xunqin so much, nor how close the relationship between the two is, it's just because Liu Xunyi has too many "burdens" in his heart, and it is rare to meet a wise and "sincere" listener.

I have to admit that Xun Qin is an extremely smart woman. Today, it was Liu Xunyi's "torture" to her, but in the end, it became her "teaching" to Liu Xunyi. The "liared" Liu Xunyi took the initiative to say a lot of things, but she hid her secrets without leaking.

In the face of Liu Xunyi's heartfelt words, Xun Qin answered like a stream, showing reasonableness and understanding between fiction and reality.

In the end, instead of arousing Liu Xunyi's suspicion, he was cited as a like-minded confidant.

Liu Xunyi and Xun Qin put their hearts in their hearts and talked happily. It wasn't until night fell, and the grass hut fell into darkness, that the two of them suddenly woke up and laughed dumbly.

"It's getting late, it's time to put on the lights. ”

Under Xun Qin's reminder, Liu Xunyi slowly got up, groped in the dark, and then tried to light half of the candle on the table with flint, making a "crackling" sound.

However, because he couldn't see his five fingers in the thatched hut, Liu Xunyi couldn't align the position of the flint and the wick for a long time.

"I'll help you carry the candle, and you will light the fire. ”

"That's fine. ”

In the dark, Xun Qin reached out and touched the table, but he couldn't find the candle after groping for a long time, but accidentally put it together with Liu Xunyi's hand.

"Candle ...... Where?"

In order to avoid embarrassment, Xun Qin pretended to be nothing, and patted the back of Liu Xunyi's hand lightly with his hand, signaling him to hand over the candle.

"Here!"

I don't know if it was a mistake or subconsciously, Liu Xunyi did not hand the candle to Xun Qin's hand, but held her soft and boneless hand and led it towards the table.

"Take it!"

"Hmmm......"

"Smack!"

"Whew!"

Under Liu Xunyi's soft voice and Xun Qin's gentle consent, the flint made a crisp sound. Suddenly, a faint yellow that was better than nothing faintly fainted from the wick.

At the same time, the two of them moved closer to each other, and their cheeks slowly emerged under the faint yellow candle flame.

Under the lamp, watching the beauty like a hibiscus out of the water makes the swallow jealous of the warbler.

Xun Qin's fair cheeks showed a hint of seductive pink. Bright eyes and bright teeth, red face and green sideburns, skin like condensation, exhalation Shenglan, as delicate and clear as flawless jade, made Liu Xunyi suddenly feel like a horse, as if he lost his mind.

"Shhh

I don't know if it's intentional? Xun Qin's hand holding the candle raised slightly upward, and the gently flickering candle flame happened to burn the back of Liu Xunyi's hand, and the sudden burning pain lifted his spirits, and he hurriedly retracted his gaze, coughed lightly, pretended to be absent-mindedly threw down the flint, and sat back in his place.

"That...... Xun Qin, what you said has benefited me a lot, and we will continue with the topic just now. Liu Xunyi said, "How can I become weighty, how can I fight through the breeze?"

Xun Qin took a deep breath, quickly calmed down the twists and turns in his heart, and then looked like a thoughtful question: "In terms of martial arts and resourcefulness, you are not inferior to anyone. On courage and courage...... You're also considered upper-class. But even so, you still lost badly, do you know why?"

"Why?" Under Xun Qin's guidance, Liu Xunyi gradually regained his senses.

"Actually, you are not losing to one or two people, but to one of the powerful parties. ”

"One side of the power?"

No matter how high a person's martial arts skills and resourcefulness are, he can't compete with the word power. Power is easy to obtain, because it is given by others. It's hard to accumulate, because you rely on your own hard work. If you don't know how to do this, even if you are brought back to life a hundred, a thousand, or ten thousand times, you will still end up with a feather in the end. If you want to break the shackles of fate and be an upright person, you must give up relying on other people's thoughts or the obsession of fighting alone, and painstakingly study the strategy of hegemony and the way of power. ”

"The strategy of hegemony, the way of power......" Liu Xunyi was surprised, "What does this mean?"

"Throughout the ages, power and power, choose one of them and work intensively, both can flourish and be proud of the world. Xun Qin explained unhurriedly, "However, there are advantages and disadvantages to power, and there is neither the right to sit once and for all, nor the power to sit back and enjoy its success." For example, the prime minister of the Great Song Dynasty, a very popular minister, has monstrous power, but it was given by the emperor. Another example is Luo Tianjin, whose power is less than the Qipin County Order, but he can make the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military rites concede three points, why? However, a lot of power means more friends, and more friends means more enemies. Therefore, last year, there was a great change in the Xianwang Mansion, and Luo Tianjin was betrayed by the person he trusted the most because of his negligence in preventing the thousand-year-old Daoxing, and the mountain collapsed overnight. Let's talk about you, after leaving the imperial court, the word 'official power' is thousands of miles away from you, you don't have to regret it, let alone ask for extravagance. For today's plan, you can only enter the rivers and lakes and gather strength. ”

Liu Xunyi frowned, as if he didn't understand: "How to get together?"

"In fact, gathering momentum is gathering people, and people are divided into 'nobles' and 'capable people'. Noble people are far away in the world, often can be met but not sought, once there is a fate, it is enough to make you a thousand miles a day. Capable people are close to the right and around, often out of reach, once you return to the heart, you will be able to overcome obstacles. There are not many nobles in the fine, and the capable people are not loyal in the fine. There are noble people but incompetent people, although they are once powerful, they cannot take root. There are capable people but no nobles, although they are united, it is difficult to blossom and bear fruit. Throughout the Central Plains martial arts, all those who gather the general trend are blessed by nobles and assisted by capable people, and they cannot succeed without one of them. ”

"This ......"

Just like Luo Tianjin, his nobles are Qingfeng and Teng Sanshi, and the capable people around him are loyal and courageous people such as Xie Xuan, Deng Changchuan, Huang Yulang, and Murong Bai. The two complement each other, and the Xian Wangfu can be prominent for a while. Xun Qin said firmly, "Not only Luo Tianjin, but also other heroes. No one can rise to the top of the sky with their own strength alone. ”

"I see!" Liu Xunyi thought thoughtfully, "You introduced the 'Four Mansions in Beijing' to me, just to help me gather momentum?"

"As the saying goes, 'one fence has three piles, and one hero has three gangs'. You Liu Xunyi is not a god or a ghost, and you don't have three heads and six arms, so you can't be an exception. Whether it is out of Xie Xuan's affection, out of the order of the King of Shaoqin, or out of a coincidence in the dark. In short, I'm here to help you gather momentum as soon as possible. Xun Qin couldn't deny it, and smiled, "Only in this way can you have enough weight to compete with Qingfeng's father and daughter, and even compete with the Great Song Dynasty...... Fight against each other. As for the clearing of grievances, revenge, and even ...... in your heart. To regain everything that has been lost, we can't show off and talk about it. If you want to achieve your dreams, you have to be strong enough. In other words, the more power you have, the more wishes you can fulfill. To put it bluntly, whimsical and wild, if your power is so strong that the Mongol Khan trembles, don't say that it will be easy to recapture Zhao Xin, even if you take all the Mongol princesses for yourself...... It's not impossible.

"This ......" In the face of Xun Qin's ridicule, Liu Xunyi couldn't help but be stunned, and said bitterly, "Even today's Shaoqin King is far from reaching the point where the Mongolian Great Khan is jealous, not to mention that I am at the end of the road and have nothing? But even so, his power was still 108,000 miles away from the Great Khan of Mongolia. Power, power...... It's easy to say, but to really fight and grab bit by bit, I don't know how many hardships and years it takes......"

"Back then, Emperor Liu Bang of the Han Dynasty Taizu Gao went from the snake uprising to the throne and became the emperor, which took only seven years. If you want to achieve great things, you must first be determined, and you must not be capricious and capricious. Xun Qin sneered, "This is true of the ancients, and the same is true of today's people. I'm not afraid that you're soft-spoken, I'm not afraid that you're nothing, I'm not afraid you're at the end of your rope, I'm afraid you'll be disheartened and self-defeating. There is a saying that 'people plan things, and things are done in heaven'. There are some things that may not be successful if you try your best to do them, but if you don't even have the courage to try and the confidence to persevere...... Defeat is assured. ”

"Xun Qin, you...... That's right!" Xun Qin's words were like an initiation, which made Liu Xunyi's mouth suddenly open, and his expression became more and more solemn, "It's just that my heart is in turmoil now, and I really don't know where to go, I am willing to hear and teach!"

"As I said earlier, there are three gangs of one hero. No matter how many people go to the four mansions of Beijing, after all, they are the supporters of the King of Shaoqin, not your henchmen of Liu Xunyi, so it's okay to let them wave their flags and shout, but if you expect them to help you set up your own door...... I'm afraid it's as difficult as climbing to the sky. Xun Qin smiled meaningfully, "King Shaoqin and I saved you from danger and helped you to fall into the general, so we are your 'nobles'." At the moment, it is imperative that you gather some courageous, knowledgeable, brave and resourceful 'capable people' as soon as possible to rely on you for their lives and share life and death. ”

"Capable people?"

"That's good!" Xun Qin nodded heavily, "Just like Xie Xuan and Deng Changchuan beside Luo Tianjin, Song Yu and Leng Yiyi beside Jin Fuyu, the four Taoist masters of the sun, moon, stars, and Chen around Qingfeng, and even the geese beside Ling Xiaoxiao...... They are all capable people with unique skills and can take on great responsibilities. There are not many such people, but they must be like brothers and sisters with you, do not go against your heart, and must not betray you in the slightest. ”

"Why?"

"For they are your arms that stand up to the door and support yourself. It is a treasure weapon for you to swing your sword into a river and sprinkle beans into a soldier. It is your savior who turns evil into good fortune and becomes auspicious in trouble. It is also the wings of you who dominate the world, the wind tiger and the cloud dragon. ”
