An hour later, the carriage arrived at the shores of Qiutang Lake.

"My lord, watch your step!"

Under Qin Wei's careful support, Lord Qian slowly stepped out of the carriage, and the two guards on the left and right hurriedly stepped forward, one used a whisk to dust off the robe for Lord Qian, and the other put a fur velvet coat on him, so as not to catch a cold in the autumn wind.

"Have you arrived?"

"Returning to your lordship, they have arrived!"

In the face of Lord Qian's inquiry, a burly man answered in a low voice.

"Lead the way!"

"That ......" Qin Wei, who didn't wait for the burly man to receive the order, suddenly spoke, "The meeting between the lord and the leader of the martial arts alliance is a secret of the West Mansion, should the lower officials avoid ......?"

"If the official doesn't want you to know, how can he let you get in the car?" Lord Qian interrupted nonchalantly, "Today's events are not only related to them, but also to you. ”

"What does it have to do with me?" Qin Wei was stunned, "What do you mean by ......?"

"You have to cherish it. Lord Qian's expression was solemn, pretending to be profound, "Qin Wei, if you can firmly seize this opportunity, don't say that you will enter the West Mansion to serve, even if you enter the West Mansion to participate in politics...... It's just around the corner. ”

"This ......"

Although he didn't know Lord Qian's intentions, and he didn't know what the "great task from heaven" meant, his intuition after many years of officialdom told him that this time might be another opportunity for him to leap into the dragon gate since he succeeded to Tianjihou.

Thinking of this, Qin Wei could no longer hold back the excitement in his heart, and fell to his knees with a "poof", and kowtowed to Lord Qian, who was smiling and silent, and thanked him again and again.

"When you see the breeze for a while, don't be submissive, be frank and open. Master Qian helped Qin Wei up, personally arranged his wrinkled robe, and admonished, "You are no longer what you used to be, you must pay attention to your demeanor whenever and wherever you are." Although Qingfeng is the leader of the martial arts alliance, he is just a reckless man after all, and the people of the rivers and lakes respect him and fear him, but we don't have to take him to heart. You have to remember that we are the emperor's appointed court officials, and they are just green forests and grass cowards who occupy the mountains as kings. An official is an official, and a Kou is a Kou, and they can never be confused about priority and priority, let alone allowed to turn against the guest. Therefore, you should be gentle when you should be easy, and you don't have to be taboo when you should be strict, most of the people in the rivers and lakes are fierce and cunning, and it is even more tricky and ruthless to become a hegemon of one side, so you must not take it lightly in front of them, so as not to be deceived by them. There is no need to talk to them about morality and friendship, just need to hit the snake seven inches, know what they want most and what they are most afraid of, so that they can lift weights with ease and ease with both strength and softness. ”

"The lower officials remember the teachings of the adults!"

"Keeping in mind is not the same as using it freely, today this official will teach you a lesson, you should watch and listen carefully, and ponder carefully. In the future, you will inevitably deal with them alone. ”

"This ......"

Looking at Qin Wei, who was shocked, Lord Qian didn't say anything more, and walked towards the lake.

At this moment, Qingfeng, Lone Star, and Lone Moon have been waiting by the lake for a long time.

"The official is not feeling well, so he came late, and looked at the three Haihans. ”

"We have heard about it ten days ago, Poor Dao has been worried, but Lord Bai died, we have no way to visit, so we can only stay in the inn and wait for news. As soon as he saw Lord Qian, who was late, Qingfeng hurriedly stepped forward and greeted him, "Seeing that the Lord is safe today, Poor Dao will be relieved." ”

"There is Lao Qingfeng's concern, and the official is grateful. ”

After saying that, Lord Qian brought the solemn Qin Wei to his side and introduced him to the three of Qingfeng: "This is the new 'Tianji Marquis' Lord Qin, who is now a popular person in front of the emperor, a hot figure in the imperial court, and is highly valued in the east and west mansions, and is a rare young talent." ”

"Three Taoist leaders, Qin is polite!" Qin Wei remembered Lord Qian's reminder, his attitude was neither humble nor arrogant, and his expression was neither yin nor yang.

As soon as he saw Qin Wei, Qingfeng suddenly felt familiar, and after a little recollection, his face changed, and his gaze at Qin Wei became cautious and vigilant.

"I really didn't expect that after only half a year, Lord Qin would turn into a Great Song humerus. Qingfeng said in a wordy voice, "I remember that on the seventh day of the lunar month last year, in the Xianwang Mansion in Luoyang, Lord Qin was just a servant by Zhao Yuan's side. At that time, the people sent by the imperial court to encircle and suppress Luo Tianjin...... In the end, only you, Zhao Yuan, and Liu Xunyi left alive. In less than a year, things are not people, and now Zhao Yuan has returned to the west, and Liu Xunyi's life and death are unknown...... Instead of following in their footsteps, he made steady progress and became an official, which really responded to the sentence 'Shibei should be impressed in three days'. Lord Qin's rapid rise is really ...... Ancient and modern are rare and incredible. ”

Although Qingfeng's tone was plain, his words were full of ridicule of Qin Wei, as if he had bad intentions and was sincerely difficult.

It's normal to think about it, after all, Qin Wei personally participated in the incident on the seventh day of the lunar month last year, and he knew about the collusion of Qingfeng, Ling Xiaoxiao, and Yun Chasing the Moon, and this matter was ...... It is precisely the sore foot that Qingfeng does not want to mention the most, and he does not want to be caught.

Therefore, in the face of Qin Wei, who was holding his handle, Qingfeng inevitably felt gloomy and uncomfortable.

"Oh?" Before Qin Wei, who was embarrassed, sneered at him, Lord Qian, who was pretending to be confused, said, "So, today is not the first time you have met?"

"Of course!" Qingfeng replied with a smile, "Counting it, Poor Dao and Lord Qin are also old acquaintances. ”

"That's just right!" Lord Qian nodded pretending to be happy, "Since you have known each other for a long time, the official of the province has made a match." ”

"What do you mean?"

"Bai Jin is gone, and from now on, Qin Wei will represent the imperial court and communicate with Qingfeng Dao Chang Lishang. Lord Qian patiently explained, "This official has already discussed with the privy envoy, and in the future, Qin Wei can make decisions on behalf of the Xifu in all martial arts matters, and there is no need to return to everything, let alone play a request for everything." The imperial court is full of opportunities, the military affairs of the Xifu are busy, and the energy of the privy envoy and the official is limited, so they are really too busy to take care of it, so they can only choose a person with outstanding ability from among their cronies to take on this great responsibility. ”

"Shhh

Lord Qian's words are tantamount to pushing Qin Wei to the position of "Imperial Court Qincha", which contains not only the trust of the Western Mansion in Qin Wei, but also the power to control life and death at the right time.

In this section, today's Qin Wei is like Zhao Yuan in the past, and he is also a conspiracy against the Central Plains martial arts, except that one of them represents the West Mansion and the other represents the East Mansion.

What's more, Qin Wei's power today is far greater than that of Zhao Yuan in the past. As everyone knows, Zhao Yuan was just the puppet of the prime minister at the beginning, and he did not have the power to be 'arbitrary'.

Until this moment, Qin Wei finally understood what Lord Qian's "Heavenly Mission" meant? It was to deal with Qingfeng for the Western Mansion, so as to encroach and meddle step by step until he completely controlled the Central Plains Martial Arts.

"Lord Qian, there is something I shouldn't have said, but ...... I can't help but say it. Looking at the pretentious Lord Qian and the ambitious Qin Wei, Lone Star's face suddenly sank, and he said quietly, "If I remember correctly, our agreement with Lord Qian is that you will hand over Liu Xunyi to us before we agree to communicate with the court." But now ...... Lord Qian opened and closed his mouth to 'martial arts matters', but he didn't say a word about Liu Xunyi, isn't it a little evasive?"

"That's right!" Gu Yue echoed, "We have been delayed in Lin'an for many days, and if the imperial court can no longer fulfill its promise, we will have to go home." As for the original agreement...... I'm afraid it's a long-term perspective. After all, we have unreservedly expressed our sincerity, but the court has repeatedly disappointed us. If you can't even deal with a little Liu Xunyi, how can you resist foreign invasions? The head of the Central Plains Martial Arts Alliance is the leader of the Central Plains Martial Arts Alliance, and you must consider the lives and future of the heroes of the world for the long term. ”

"What the two of you said is very true!" Master Qian laughed instead of being angry, "Even if you don't mention the matter of Liu Xunyi, the official must also mention it, otherwise I won't be in a hurry to find you." ”

"Oh?" Qingfeng raised his eyebrows and asked rhetorically, "Could it be that Lord Qian has caught Liu Xunyi?"

"Nope. ”

"That ......"

"Don't be impatient, don't be impatient!" Lord Qian waved his hand to interrupt Qingfeng's questioning, and said unhurriedly, "Actually, Liu Xunyi's ability to survive in desperate situations is not accidental, but inevitable. ”

"What do you mean by that?"

"This official asks the three of you first, have you heard of the 'Young Qin King' Yelutai?"

"What?" Qingfeng's eyes changed, and he said suspiciously, "Could it be that this matter has something to do with the Young Qin King?"

Hearing this, Lord Qian secretly said "sure enough" in his heart, but on the surface, he remained silent and said bluntly: "Actually, the group of mysterious people who rescued Liu Xunyi ten days ago were none other than King Shaoqin's subordinates. ”

"This ......"

Qingfeng and the three of them glanced at each other, and their eyebrows were full of blankness.

"The King of Shaoqin once had a son-in-law...... Lord Qian and Lord Qin should be clear about this matter. Qingfeng groaned, "But he and Liu Xunyi seem to be ...... There are no relatives, no reason, and no friendship. Liu Xunyi is not as powerful as his son-in-law, and he is not worthy of the friendship of the King of Qin at all, why did he come to the rescue?"

"Coincidentally, this question is also puzzled, and today I was going to ask the Qingfeng Daoist for advice, but unexpectedly...... Your Excellency asked me in turn. Hehe......" Lord Qian insinuated, especially his strange expression of not smiling, which made people shudder, "After all, when it comes to the King of Shaoqin, Qingfeng Dao is long...... No, it should be Ling Yan, who is far more familiar than us outsiders. ”

"What does Master Qian mean by that?" Qingfeng's face sank, and his tone became more and more displeased, "Could it be that you suspect that the little girl is secretly communicating with the King of Young Qin to protect Liu Xunyi?"

"It's not broken!" Lord Qian hurriedly waved his hand, "Liu Xunyi is a stumbling block for Qingfeng Dao Chang to subdue the world, and he is also a traitor who betrayed Luo Tianjin......, how could Ling Yan shield him? Risking anything to save him?"
