Because Lin Feng was suspicious of Bai Qian's identity, he was no longer as casual as before, and his attitude towards him was much more respectful. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

After the group returned to the Lin Mansion, Lin Feng invited Bai Qian to go to the hall for tea so as to introduce him to his family, but Bai Qian refused.

He said that he would do errands for the Lin family, so that he could change two horses to ride.

Lin Feng naturally became the master of two horses at home.

He smiled and said, "Big Brother Bai, my horse is fine, so I don't want you to pay for it." As for the horses you mentioned, I'll give you two, after all, you saved me today. ”

Shang Lu listened to it in a fog, he was still such an arrogant person just now, how could he suddenly become enthusiastic at this time.

Lin Feng's abnormality not only made Shang Lu, an outsider, puzzled, but even the little thugs who were used to him on weekdays were not confused.

Fortunately, they have been with the little master for a long time, and they all know the little master's temper, although they are puzzled, they don't ask too much.

Bai Qian was a little clearer, but he didn't break it, he just thanked him and smiled happily.

went to the Lin family's Ma Pengli to pick two horses, and Bai Qian and Shang Lu quickly embarked on the journey to the west.

Lin Feng didn't want to keep them for a moment.

Since he recognized the rosewood scabbard in Bai Qian's hand, he quickly remembered who the emperor of this dynasty had never publicly given rosewood.

I traced it hard in my mind, and finally remembered an anecdote recorded in the history of the field when the previous dynasty was founded. At that time, Yuwen Hongfei was not an emperor, but a leader of the rebel army. The Xiling family is far from being a later founding hero, just an extremely ordinary member of the rebel army who is unknown to the later emperor. Probably there are some such coincidences in the fate of many people, who all happened to participate in the uprising at that time, and then happened to be on the same team.

When the arrows of the imperial court came over, it was the ancestor of the Xiling family who knocked the later emperor off his horse with a scabbard and took his life.

Later, after the emperor ascended the throne, in order to thank him for saving his life in the past, he selected a good whole wood from the red sandalwood from the Nanyang tribute, and sent a craftsman to chisel a scabbard for him.

It took hundreds of years to grow the best wood that ordinary people have never heard of, not to mention that the scabbard is faintly engraved with the unique royal dragon pattern.

It shows that the emperor's grace to the Xiling family was prosperous, and then, the Xiling family lived up to expectations and has always been responsible for guarding the peace of the empire. A story that is too long to verifiably verifiable may just be a piece of literati and writers who arranged it to make everyone happy.

It's just that when Lin Feng saw that legend, he began to think that the sword scabbard with dragon patterns might just be a declaration of the absolute authority of the imperial power.

The meaning couldn't be more obvious, no matter how sharp the sword of the Xiling family is, it must be obediently suppressed by the imperial power.

However, these are not the key, the key is that since this scabbard is a relic of the royal family of the previous dynasty, it means that it can invite disaster at any time.

This was the reason why Lin Feng was unwilling to leave blank for a long time, he even suppressed his curiosity as a teenager and didn't ask anything about Bai Qian.

The changes in his family in the past few years have made him understand the truth that the people do not fight with the officials, and he doesn't want to have anything to do with Bai Qian. He knew that the less he knew about that man's sword, the safer.

Although after the Changning War, the Xiling family had withdrawn from the historical stage of the empire and did not know what to do, but at that time, Lin Feng just felt that the fate of the Xiling family would not be much different from other relict ministers of the previous dynasty.

After the new emperor ascended the throne, taxes and the like were reduced or reduced, and amnesty was granted to the world, putting on a benevolent appearance. In addition, in the past few years, the country has gradually embarked on the right track of prosperity, but he has always killed all the ministers who supported the previous dynasty, and there is no mercy at all.

Fortunately, it did not reach the point of the Zhulian Nine Clans, otherwise when Lu Jin's family was killed, they would not have let go of the Lu Qian family in Gusu so easily.

The new emperor dealt with these matters fairly quickly and secretly, without any large-scale massacres or overly widespread involvement, and he seemed unwilling to cause any more uneasiness among the people.

Many people disappeared from the history of the empire overnight, naturally in the case of families, and he liked to cut the grass and eradicate the roots.

Those who were removed from the list designated by the emperor are unknown in their lives and deaths.

For the sake of convenience, it is generally believed that they are all dead.

The common people don't care much about this, after all, the children of their family don't have the blessing of being an official. The change of dynasty is like a natural disaster, and ordinary people can neither participate in nor escape.

The long agricultural civilization has made the Chinese people very adaptable and adaptable, and the emperor has changed, for them, it is just a change of era name and a new year.

This is really not a big deal, it is not as good as a long drought rain or a hail during the season when the crops are blooming.

The life of the people is as usual, and the damage caused by the war and the huge casualties of the labor force are gradually being absorbed.

In just three years, it was digested as if nothing had happened, and this speed of forgetting was very terrifying for Bai Qian.

He was a participant in that war, and he felt it more deeply than the average person. In addition, he has witnessed many deaths and cruel things, and it is understandable that he can't get out for a while.

The two of them led Ma to the west, and although Shang Lu asked many times along the way, Bai Qian was always silent.

Don't look at Bai Qian, this will be a prodigal son with a cold and hard personality, in the past, his heart was actually very soft. When I was at home, it was precisely because of some oversensitivity that I was hurt and sad, and I was whipped by my father.

The little animals that were caught for him to practice, he often couldn't get his hands on.

Although he was weak and didn't want to do it himself, he couldn't save them. It's ridiculous to say that although his father Bai Ying has been committed to training Bai Qian ruthlessly in the past ten years, he has never succeeded.

Bai Qian opposes all senseless killing.

And his father, Bai Ying, is a killer, a killer who shocks the rivers and lakes. There are countless people who died at the hands of Bai Ying, among them, there are high-ranking officials and nobles, there are also ordinary people, more are businessmen and wealthy households, and there are also some robbers who occupy the mountains as kings...... He kills anyone, there doesn't seem to be any principle of taking orders, it seems that he just loves to kill.

He didn't allow Bai Qian to have any extra sympathy, he knew that the blood debt on his hand would one day be asked for, and he was even ready to die at any time. The training of the former siblings became urgent, and he had to teach them the skills to protect themselves.

The young Bai Qian couldn't feel his father's hard work, but because his father was so strong that he chose a life that he didn't like at all, he was resentful.

Later, he blamed his mother's death for his father's murder, and became even more disgusted with his father, who became depressed and more violent after his mother's death, and he didn't even try to understand his father even once when he stepped out of the house.
