Lin Jianlan pondered for a while, and said: "Since Empress Wu took power, even her own son has never let go, 'Planting melon yellow under the stage, melon ripening and leaving. One pick makes the melon good, and then the pick makes the melon thin. The three picks are still free, and the picks are not returned. 'This cucumber rhetoric spread all over the world, the Li clan was slaughtered, the branches withered, although some survived, but I am afraid that most of them have been silenced, like Brother Tang at a young age dared to contradict the current can still live to this day is also extremely rare. It's just that if there is no sign, I will never guess at will, Brother Tang can protect his brother, and there is no one like you, who secretly plotted to try to overthrow Wu Xing Li?"

Tang Mu nodded and said: "What Lin Gong said is not unreasonable, but my father's generation is really devastated, and some people are lucky not to die, which is almost like death." Before, Li's actions were unfavorable, partly because he was not secretive, and my grandmother preempted the attack, and a large number of people were connected to the crime. Therefore, I did not dare to disclose much with my brothers this time, and naturally I could not easily inquire about anything, but I knew them very well about their temperament. Speaking of this, he smiled bitterly and said: "None of them are people who can achieve great things, some are timid and cowardly, some send love poems and books, and some even write to my grandmother, asking to go to the bitter cold land to avoid suspicion, they ...... I'm afraid I'm scared. ”

Lin Jianlan said: "The boss is cowardly, maybe there are capable people around to help, but there is a possibility of being instigated and manipulated? ”

Tang Mu said: "The Taihu Lake matter, the style of acting is different from any cousin I know, but to be honest, I don't dare to guarantee it, since Lin Gong said this, I will investigate." He hesitated for a moment and said, "Gong Lin, listening to your solemn question about this matter, I actually feel in a trance that it is the same as when Xu Gong started an incident." ”

Lin Jianlan was stunned for a moment, and said secretly: "Didn't Wei Suxin wait for more than ten years to wait for this opportunity, if he wants to repeat the things of the past, it is not false." But listening to Tang Mu's war report, the people there are too innocent, now as long as he finds out which clan he is working for, and let Tang Mu go to lobby, maybe a war may be avoided. Thinking of this, he smiled and said: "Brother Tang thinks too much, if there was a character like Brother Tang back then, why should outsiders be upright?"

But I heard a slight sound of talking outside, and heard the servant whisper: "Miss Lu, please stop, the prince and Lin Gong are talking secretly." ”

Tang Mu hurriedly said: "You might as well try, after the talk, please Miss Lu come in." ”

The figure at the door flashed, Lu Man walked in, seeing that although the faces of the two were deliberately relaxed, the atmosphere was heavy that could not be changed, Tang Mu said: "I don't know where Lin Gong is going next, I want to go back to Chang'an, first, to deal with the military situation in Jiangnan, and secondly, some things in the beggar gang should also be settled. ”

Lin Gong heard him mention the beggar gang, and said secretly: "Speaking of the beggar gang, I'm afraid that the elite of the Hangzhou rudder was transferred by him, but I don't know where it was transferred." Although he said that he would not do anything sorry for the beggar brothers, but the mountain rain is about to come and the wind is full of buildings, and the current mouth is full of promises that it will not be able to withstand the sudden change of wind and clouds for a moment. That's it, with his identity, he is willing to make this promise, so why ask for more. ”

Tang Mu saw that he was silent, so he looked at Lu Man, but saw that Lu Man was still the same as last night, looking at Lin Jianlan, his heart couldn't help but feel depressed, and he heard Lin Jianlan say: "I still have to go to Luoyang to find someone to ask about something, I asked Brother Tang to inquire about it, it is best to tell me quickly, and then I will set off to Jiangnan to explore the Taihu Rebels again." ”

Tang Mu said movingly: "Actually, these things don't have much to do with Lin Gong, and I also know that what the Imperial Kou Si has done in recent years has made the people of the rivers and lakes resentful of their grandmother, but anyone who does things for the court will be quite shameful for the people of the rivers and lakes, and Lin Gong is willing to help each other regardless of the reputation of the rivers and lakes, I ...... I can't thank you enough. ”

Lin Jianlan smiled indifferently and said: "Where do I have any reputation in the rivers and lakes, my father-in-law brought me out, if it weren't for him, who would know me in the green forest." ”

Lu Man glanced at Lin Jianlan and said in a low voice: "Then we are also here to say goodbye to the prince, I heard that my mother found my father in the White Horse Temple, and he is near Luoyang, so we will go with Lin Gong." ”

Tang Mu said gloomily: "Miss Man doesn't have to be so polite to me, in that case, I would like to wish you a smooth journey, the carriages and horses are ready, and I have also commanded." ”

The five people went out of the Sanyuan Mansion, and saw that there was really a magnificent carriage parked at the door, which was very spacious inside, and knew that it was hypocritical to be humble again, and he was a dignified Linzi King, and the carriage was nothing, so he boarded the car one after another, and listened to the servant who drove the car raised his hand with a whip, the sound of horses' hooves, and the wheels rolled forward. Tang Mufang sighed and said, "Immediately let people hurry back to the house, prepare a few generous gifts for the other kings, prepare the carriage, and prepare to go back to Chang'an!" The attendant answered and was about to leave, but Tang Mu hesitated again: "The princess has been traveling for a long time, I am afraid that I will be too tired and feel unwell, so let someone ask the imperial doctor to take a look at the princess, and tell him that the medicine that should be prescribed is difficult to get into the varieties, although tell me that I will go to the palace to ask for it." ”

The five people in the car, except for the young man, the mood of the other four people was all ups and downs with the bumps of the carriage, Bai Zongping was even more gloomy, he accompanied Lu Man to run around for days, he slept very early last night, but when he got up at night, he saw Lin Jianlan coming out of Lu Man's room, and his heart suddenly burned with jealousy, at this moment, which made him want to tear into pieces but sat opposite with nothing to do, or looked out the window, or talked to Nian Xiaoxia in a low voice, but Lu Man's eyes kept falling on his face, and when Lin Jianlan turned around, he hurriedly turned his eyes away. Looking at this junior sister who doesn't pay attention to anyone, she has always had a different attitude towards herself than others, and she first thought of accompanying herself when she did anything, but at this moment, she was moved by an outsider, and Bai Zongping couldn't help but feel sad and resentful.

Lin Jianlan didn't care at all, he just hoped to get to Luoyang sooner, time passed too slowly for him, but it was too fast for Lu Man, as the light gradually drifted away from the curtain, and then looked out in a blink of an eye, he could already see the vague city wall of Luoyang City towering above the plain.

Lin Jianlan couldn't help laughing, but when he raised his eyes, he saw Lu Man's eyes full of sorrow, and he couldn't laugh anymore, so he stepped forward and said: "Sister Man, I have heard you say how your aunt was weathered back then, Ling Zun should also be a very interesting person, but unfortunately I still have something to do, I can't accompany you to visit, if the matter is over here, I will definitely rush to the White Horse Temple, so I want to see my godfather and godmother." ”

Lu Man couldn't help but smile and said, "Which one recognizes you as a god?" In that case, where do you stay, we will come out of the White Horse Temple and come to you again." ”

Lin Jianlan said with a smile: "I don't have any fixed place, it is generally the first inn on the entrance street, but how dare I work for the two seniors to come to see me, so it seems that I am too rude." ”

Lu Man saw that Ma Wang and Bai Zongping had faintly shown anxious expressions, and couldn't say more, so he had to say: "Let's talk about it then, and say goodbye." ”

Lin Jianlan waved to Ma Wang and Bai Zongping again, Fang pulled Nian Xiaoxia to fly into the city, seeing that his light footwork had a little foundation, he couldn't help but smile and nodded, quite approving, Nian Xiaoxia wanted to show what he had learned on Baiyun Mountain, and he worked extra hard, but he was too young, and when he arrived at the city gate, his little face was already red from exhaustion. Lin Jianlan couldn't help but rub his head, picked him up, thought of Lu Man's words, and walked to the first inn he saw to live in, although the store is not big, it is also clean and tidy, and Nian Xiaoxia asked for two bowls of shredded chicken cold noodles, a plate of beef, first fill his stomach, and Fang took care of him to wash and sleep well, and it has been two hours since he was busy.

Seeing that Nian Xiaoxia let out an even and steady breathing sound, Lin Jianlan pushed open the door and walked out, this inn is not large, and there are no buildings with several floors, but there is a small patio surrounded by rooms on three sides, and the flowers and plants under the window are not precious varieties, most of them are common green onions, brooms, plums, etc., and there is no fragrance. He insisted on returning to Luoyang, he had two plans, one was to go to Wei Suxin to verify what he thought, and the other was to see Lin Longqing, but he didn't do anything for a while, and he didn't know how to ask Wei Suxin about these many questions, even if he didn't want to, Doctor Cheng was afraid that he was a subordinate of Wei Suxin, could it be that he was trying to verify the impossibility of this hope? He should have gone to Lin Longqing as soon as he came back, but it was precisely because of this that he couldn't talk to Lin Longqing, so he had to stay first and then make plans.

I was in a dilemma, but I felt that there seemed to be a gust of wind in this small patio, and when I turned around, there was already a sharp palm wind coming, and I hurriedly turned back, and jumped forward with my feet on the wall of the house behind me, and looked back at it, I couldn't help but be angry, and said: "I haven't seen you for a long time, the old man who was respected by everyone in Kuangyi Gang in the past, how to do it secretly now!"

The person who sneaked up on him was Dr. Cheng, Lin Jianlan never thought that he would come forward to sneak attack him, seeing that he was not angry at this sarcastic remark, he slowly took out two long hooks from his waist, but saw Lin Jianlan's palms slowly make a momentum, it was the appearance of Qianyuanzhang, his face was no longer angry, calm as water, his heart was secretly shocked that he replied to his emotions so quickly, but he said: "Is it still Lin Longqing's housekeeping moves? You haven't entered the country, and you still use this set to coax the old man!" After waving his double hook and rubbing his body up, Lin Jianlan didn't move, but when he saw that he was about to get closer, the double hook was closed in his left hand and his left hand hooked towards his left hand, and his right palm was open with a cold palm wind heading down, which seemed ordinary but seemed to lock people to death, Lin Jianlan said angrily: "Why do you have to put me to death, you are so vicious." The left sleeve shook, and the two short swords that he had been carrying on weekdays came out of his sleeve and fell into his hand, and the sound of "boring" had replaced his left wrist and was hooked, and his right hand raised his hand to the opponent's palm.

After a burst of impact, both of them took a few steps back, and Doctor Cheng only felt that the left hand holding the hook had been shocked after colliding with the iron tool that could not see the shape clearly, and his right palm was also extremely uncomfortable, and there was a shock between his heart and lungs, and he heard Lin Jianlan say: "Is it coaxing you, is it clear now?"

Doctor Cheng smiled sadly: "Dare to palm with me, aren't you impatient?" The heart no longer dares to underestimate, and changes the hook method, but it is a big opening and closing, it seems that it is integrated with the knife method, but the hook head has to make people more distracted and scruples.

Lin Jianlan also held the two severed swords in his hands, although it was inconvenient to face the opponent's long hook, but in a hurry, he had no blade to use, and he still had to use this "indisputable" long sword, which was also helpless. Doctor Cheng's cold internal force continued to pass through from the blade, but after a while, Lin Jianlan secretly sighed in his heart: "Doctor Cheng has also wasted so many years, I'm afraid Qin Tianxiong is fake and stupid, but he is fake and smart, and he has always been so rigid and careful." Thinking of this, he didn't know that every inch was short and an inch was dangerous, but if he always maintained a few feet long, he couldn't quickly defeat the enemy.

Doctor Cheng saw that the figure of the person in front of him was flying and jumping, and the body method used seemed to be a cloudy step, but it was different, and the surrounding walls and rocks were like walking flat under his feet, and he could borrow from it, which seemed to be a very natural thing, and now he suddenly deceived himself, and the two things in his hands were clearly seen, it turned out to be two short swords, but he didn't want him to attack, but he put the two short swords on the hook, which seemed to be stained on the hook, and a feeling of stagnation passed from his hands to his arms, but he couldn't shake it off.

The hook method should have been far away, and it was powerful to retract it, but at this moment, it was tied up by these two broken swords, not that the hook hooked the sword, but that it was hooked by the sword. What made Dr. Cheng even more depressed was that Lin Jianlan's whole person was as if he was in front of him, his footwork and body were all the same as his own, and he only hated that there was no third hand to give him a palm in his chest.

The two of them fought like this for dozens of moves, Doctor Cheng's arms became heavier and heavier, thinking that it should be almost time, the hook of his right hand suddenly let go, and a palm hit him with lightning speed, the two were so close, Doctor Cheng only expected that Lin Jianlan couldn't dodge this full blow, but he felt that his hand was sick, and then two sounds of gold and iron, looking down, saw that Lin Jianlan also used his palm to face each other again, and the broken sword and hook fell to the ground.

Suddenly, a burst of palm power surged, Lin Jianlan's young face slowly approached, and said softly: "Doctor Cheng is so forgetful, my internal strength is thanks to you, I have received all the cold and cold kung fu than you, how can I be hurt by the cold palm power that penetrated your palm just now?"
