Chapter 34: Why do you want your surname Xu?
After a big battle, the inn was in a mess, and after the proprietress cleaned up a few corpses, she cleaned up a fairly clean table, and the three of them sat around the table.
For Huo Xishen's ruthless methods, Xu Beiyou has no idea, the murderer is always killed, and those dead monks are not necessarily good people, since they come out to kill people and seize treasures, they must have the consciousness that their skills are not as good as being killed by others, this is also the difficulty of loose cultivation, without the support of the sect, not only is the road of cultivation extremely difficult, but also their own lives are as cheap as mustard, sometimes they say that they are dead, and they don't even have a person to collect the body.
As for the proprietress and the person from the imperial capital, Chengping came here in the second year, and had some friendship with Peony, and he was involved in an old secret, Xu Beiyou really wanted to hear what kind of secret it was, whether it was related to the Lanhan party dispute after Emperor Xiao's death, and whether it was related to his own life experience.
Huo Xishen glanced at the sword box that was put aside by Xu Beiyou, and his eyes were very jealous, the legend of Jiangdu Xu Gongzi was carrying several sharp swords, and he didn't have the slightest strength to fight back just by taking out a sword before, if all the swords came out together, what kind of scene should it be? At the same time, he also moved some other thoughts, since Xu Beiyou had no intention of making a hostile move, could he become allies? Or could he climb the big tree of Xu Gongzi? Although this move is suspected of luring a wolf into the house, seeing that the woman has already given birth to a son, and now the top priority is to recapture the Huo family that should belong to her, these details are not taken care of.
Xu Beiyou turned his head and glanced at Huo Xishen, and said straight to the point: "Huo Gongzi, I heard the boss lady talk about you before, are you going back to the Huo family on this trip?"
This question did not surprise Huo Xishen, and he replied calmly: "The Huo family must go back, but only after I set foot in the Earth Immortal Realm." ”
Xu Beiyou smiled, "Just the so-called Qishan Immortal Medicine?"
After Huo Xishen hesitated slightly, he still nodded, and said calmly: "After I got the Blind Pupil Demon Skill by chance, my cultivation has advanced by leaps and bounds, but I am stuck on the threshold of the Earth Immortal Realm, even if my own qi is no different from that of ordinary Earth Immortals, but I still can't open the Upper Dantian Purple Mansion Consciousness Sea, so I ventured into the Witch Sect Ancestral Court in Qishan, fortunately the heavens favored me, and I got this immortal medicine from it, hoping to help me break through the last kick." ”
After finishing speaking, Huo Xishen carefully took out a crystal jade box from his sleeve, and after opening it, there was some black powder inside, which was very different from the pill of Daomen, no wonder it was called medicine, not Dan.
Huo Xishen introduced: " This is the immortal medicine I brought out from Qishan, more than ten years ago, a human immortal monk stepped into the realm of immortals in one fell swoop with this medicine, which can be called a step to the sky, after this matter spread, many people compared it with the golden pill of the Daomen, called it an immortal medicine, and even caused a lot of bloody rain, several major sects have sent people to Qishan to find medicine, but later found that the side effects of this medicine are very great, if its own cultivation is insufficient, or the foundation is not strong, rashly take this medicine, not only can not set foot in the realm of immortals, but also have the worry of death. ”
Xu Beiyou waved his hand and motioned for Huo Xishen to put away the jade box.
After Huo Xishen put away the jade box, he said in a deep voice: "However, if you can successfully set foot in the Earth Immortal Realm, at least there will be no danger of your life." ”
Xu Beiyou then asked, "If you can successfully set foot in the Earth Immortal Realm, how sure are you that you can get back to the Huo family?"
Huo Xi Shen heard the sound of the strings and knew the meaning of elegance, and immediately said: "If Xu Gongzi is willing to help without hesitation, then with the addition of a group of elders, Huo Mou is ten percent sure that his father can live with peace of mind." ”
Xu Beiyou was noncommittal about this, and said softly: "If Huo Gongzi can wait, then after Xu Mou returns from the imperial capital, you and I will discuss this matter in detail." ”
Huo Xi said with a deep smile: "Wait, naturally wait, I have been waiting for almost ten years, and it is not a moment and a half." ”
Xu Beiyou glanced at the proprietress on the side.
Huo Xi comprehended it in his heart, got up and said: "Since this is the case, Huo Mou will leave first, and if Xu Gongzi is looking for me in the future, he can go to Ruyang Mansion." ”
Xu Beiyou nodded to note it, got up and arched his hand: "Don't send it." ”
After watching Huo Xishen leave, Xu Beiyou turned to look at the proprietress and said calmly: "Boss, now there are only you and me left, can you talk about that old past?"
The proprietress didn't show off her amorous feelings anymore, her face rarely showed a bit of solemnity, and asked, "If Gongzi Xu really wants to listen, aren't you afraid of causing death?"
"There are many people who want to kill Xu, and this one is not bad. Xu Beiyou shook his head and said: "Besides, the proprietress has survived for so many years, if she wanted to kill it, she should have done it a long time ago." ”
The proprietress was stunned for a moment, stared at Xu Beiyou's calm eyes, and said with a smile: "It's not that those big people behind the scenes are soft-hearted, but the concubine cheated to death back then, so she escaped her life." ”
Xu Beiyou said calmly: "As long as the proprietress tells the matter and the plate, Xu will write a letter and ask the proprietress to go to Jiangdu for temporary refuge, if the proprietress is willing to live in Jiangdu for a long time, Xu will also be happy." ”
The proprietress was silent for a long time, and said slowly: "Since Gongzi Xu is the righteous son of Han Gelao, he should know about the Lanhan party dispute in the twentieth year of Taiping and the first year of Chengping. ”
Xu Beiyou snorted.
The proprietress continued: "The Blue Party and the Han Party, as the name suggests, originated from the then cabinet chief assistant Lan Yu and cabinet assistant Han Xuan, to put it bluntly, it is the imperial mind of the first emperor, the temple government is dominated by Lan Xiangye, and the old Han Pavilion is contained, but I didn't expect the first emperor to die suddenly, and it was too late to arrange the things behind him, so there was the Blue Han party battle that was almost about to meet each other. ”
Xu Beiyou looked up at the gap in the roof and did not speak.
The proprietress continued: "Since the Han Party at that time was able to compete with the Blue Party, it can be said that there were many talents, and the important ministers were Bibi, in addition to Han Ge Lao, there were also Zhang Wuxi, the Governor of the Palm Seal of the Five Cities at that time, Tang Chunyu, the Left Governor of the Dark Guard Mansion, Zhang Haijiu, the Secretary of the Ministry of War, Li Chen, the Secretary of the Household Department, Zhou Jingchao, the Secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and Han Xiong, the Left Governor of the Former Army. ”
"At that time, the Chinese army forbidden army stationed outside the imperial capital was in the hands of the blue party, and the five cities and nine gates in the imperial capital were in the hands of the Han party, both sides wanted to take advantage of the new and old to alternate the time, the other party was placed here, Han Xiong, Zhang Haijiu and others had even plotted a mutiny, at the last moment, it was the queen mother who summoned Lan Xiangye and Han Ge Lao into the palace, and at the same time issued an order by the clan ministers Liang Wu County Wang Xiao Gongyu, Lingwu County Wang Xiao Shu, the Secret Guard Mansion Palm Seal Governor Qu Cang, Duanmu Ruisheng, the right governor of the Dark Guard Mansion, secretly arrested a number of important ministers of the Han Party, which calmed down this battle of the Blue Han Party that almost shook the national system. ”
As a result, Xu Gongzi also knew that Han Ge Lao was dismissed from office, and the Han Party was killed or demoted or dismissed, and the Han Party, which originally occupied half of the country in the court, disappeared. ”
Xu Beiyou said slowly: "I have heard Mr. and Zhang Dudu and others mention this matter, and I know a little about it. ”
The proprietress asked: "Then does Xu Gongzi know that there is a temple minister who did not belong to the Han Party, but he was also beaten into the Han Party, and finally died in that party struggle?"
Xu Beiyou's face was slightly gloomy, and he asked slowly, "Who?"
The proprietress said softly: "That person has the same surname as Gongzi Xu, not only an important minister of the temple, but also a relative of the emperor, I don't know if Gongzi Xu has thought about it, Han Ge Lao Mingming's surname is Han, why do you want your surname Xu?"
