Relief

In the distance, the evening clouds are misty, and the mountain shadows and forests are vaguely visible under the dim moonlight.The surrounding area was deserted, only a carriage parked by the side of the road, beside the carriage was a lone rider, the rider was a white figure covered in bandages.

The horse's hooves kicked, and the white rider turned his gaze away, waved a farewell gesture to the person in the window, and urged the horse to go.

Wu Li was lying on the window of the car, the woods not far to the north were silent, the birds were not startled, there was no sign in the dark night, but he retracted his head and lowered the car curtain as if he had received a signal.

"They have already met?" Shi Renyu asked worriedly, "Should Mr. Du go west to Fengzhou alone?"

Zhu Dexiang’s chessboard reminded that Heyizhai in the southwest was in trouble. Everyone knew that this was Wang Gan’s attack on various sects. The safety of the society is in danger, Yueguanshan let him go back to the teacher's gate to visit.

"Let's go." Wu Li said.

Tang Yu, who was sitting with one leg bent on the shaft of the car, straightened his upper body, raised his whip and spurred his horse, and sneaked into the night.

Coming out of Xuande Building, the main entrance of the imperial palace, is the most important street in Kaifeng Mansion - Yujie.About [-] paces wide, cars and horses are unimpeded, on both sides are imperial corridors, vendors are constantly hawking, and there are red lacquer branches in the middle of the street to prohibit crossing. Among them are two imperial ditches inlaid with bricks and stones. , The flowers bloom in summer and autumn, and it looks like a beautiful scenery.

Qian Jianyi walked south along Yujie Street with a medicine bag in his hand, met a peddler he knew and said hello to each other.

"Good afternoon, Master, did you buy something?"

Qian Jianyi looked gloomy, and raised the medicine bag in his hand.

"Oh, why is it medicine? Is the seat teacher in poor health recently?"

Qian Jianyi sighed: "It's noisy in class, and it's noisy after class. It's so noisy that I can't stand it."

Walking to the herring market, Qian Jianyi turned eastward and entered Zhouqiao, the pedestrians gradually thinned out, and the noise of the market seemed to be isolated.There is a large courtyard at the end, the door is open during the day, two stone piers stand on both sides of the steps, and there is not even a doorman guarding the gate.

Qian Jianyi stood at the foot of the steps with his chest folded, as if he didn't want to enter the door at all.Two scholars dressed as scribes came out from inside, and when they saw Qian Jianyi, they gave a student salute: "Sir, are you back?"

Qian Jian made a noise, remembered something, and asked, "Isn't the quarrel over yet?"

The two students couldn't help but feel embarrassed when they heard the words, and replied: "Still, still debating..."

Qian Jianyi sighed deeply, his temples reflexively ached.

The school was as bustling as a street, and books were thrown all over the sky.

"Everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the world! If it is to fight against the northern barbarians, even if I have to give up my studies and abandon my knowledge, so what! A person like you must be selfish in life, so that you can say that if you are poor, you will be alone. talk!"

"Full of nonsense! It stinks!" It was another round of book throwing. "Scholars take it as their duty to spread the Tao. There is Tao in the world, and they die with Tao. There is no Tao in the world, and they die with their own bodies. I have never heard of succumbing to the world! Today, the academy will be banned, and the scholars will be martial arts. The martial arts will free one person with strength. If a scholar uses Tao to liberate thousands of people, if a scholar follows martial arts, then people in the world will not hear of Tao. I will follow Confucius and float in the sea, and I swear that I will not be in the same class as you!"

"The commander-in-chief recruited young and strong soldiers, but Wang Gan expelled the scholars to join the army. It was because Master Fan and Master Zhang had old grievances with him in the court. The two adults came from Sanwen Academy. Now that they are impeached and leave Beijing, Wang Gan wants to punish the academy. Let's start, the party is the same as attacking different people and appointing cronyism, this is what treacherous ministers do!"

"Clothes cover one's body, which is concealment, but taking the colorful phoenix feathers and tiger feathers as an example, it is a manifestation. Concealment is also manifested, all of which are clothes. It is also like the living who does not give birth, the victor Invincible, treacherous ministers are not treacherous. Three Questions Academy, both civil and martial arts, who doesn't know, the north hoof stepped on the boundary, summoning those with outstanding martial arts to fight against the enemy, what is the common sense of this person, what does it have to do with those who are not treacherous!"

Ten steps away from the main entrance of the school, Qian Jianyi took a detour, unwilling to be discovered by the students.

Those who live are not born, and those who are victorious are invincible. The meaning is that those who give birth to all things are not born by foreign things, and those who are invincible are not defeated by others.Using this meaning to prove that a traitor is not a traitor is to fall into the sophistry of a white horse is not a horse.

Arguing to this point is really useless.

A man came across the corridor.

"Sir, we have a visitor."

"I haven't dated anyone recently, who is it?"

The man said: "There are six guests, two of them are named Wu and the other Feng. They have already been invited to the meditation room."

"Surname Wu, surname Feng?" Qian Jianyi hesitated for a moment, nodded and said, "Come over and make some tea, I'll go right away."

The Jingsi room was originally the confinement room of Sanwen Academy, where students who violated the rules of the school would be punished to meditate on their past.But now the students are different, everyone has big ideas, students will not make mistakes, only teachers can make mistakes.

My husband's thinking is pedantic and outdated by the times, and he is rigid and inflexible.Sir, you can't stop the students from talking about state affairs. If you are wise, it is best to avoid those who recommend others.The meditation room used to be reserved for students has now become a quiet place for gentlemen, so that when guests come, the first reaction of the servants is to take them to the meditation room...

Qian Jianyi didn't even have time to put away the medicine pack, so he went to the meditation room first, opened the door and saw two familiar faces.

"Master, are you safe?" Wu Li stood up.

To Qian Jianyi's surprise, Feng Zhichang also stood up, his shoulders were even, and he no longer looked like he had leg problems.

"Has the leg healed?" Qian Jianyi asked with concern.

Feng Zhichang smiled face-to-face, and Xie Zhixu answered for him: "The opportunity is rare, and I have changed into a prosthetic."

There were also three strangers in the room, one of them had a sharp-billed monkey cheek, and his appearance was not convincing.Qian Jianyi put the medicine pack on the table, sat down, and breathed a sigh of relief: "Please sit down, let's all sit down."

Mr. Liu from Qiongshan Jiuzheban is a typical example of a wide range of friends.Jiangling Gui Yizhuang Xie Wen and he had an old story. Before he died, he was left alone. Zhu Dexiang, the emperor of Jizhou, had a good relationship with him when he was studying art in Bashu. The door, Kaifeng Sanwen Academy Qian Jianyi is also his good friend, so when a disciple encounters trouble at the feet of the emperor, the first reaction is to seek advice from Master Qian.

Wu Li introduced Lu Hui and Shi Renyu to Qian Jianyi, saying that they were disciples of Huangrenling in Jizhou who had just escaped from Fengshan.

Qian Jianyi asked strangely, "Well, why did you come to see me?"

The meditation room is a small room, without a screen to divide it, so you can see to the end at a glance. Lu Hui glanced at the door to confirm that no one came in, then took out a small bronze medal and put it in front of Qian Jianyi.

"This is...?" Qian Jianyi didn't hold it with his hands, but only moved a little closer, squinted his eyes, and his face changed.

Lu Hui said in a timely manner: "This is something we found from the guards who forced us to confine us at the mountain gate. The senior brother and I escaped, but there are still hundreds of disciples imprisoned in the mountain. We all want to know who is having trouble with the Central Plains martial arts .You see we are holding this bronze medal, where should we find the answer?"

After hearing this, Qian Jianyi's eyes changed slightly, as if he was a little dissatisfied.

Wu Li and Lu Hui are two good people, and you can tell it at a glance, but Lu Hui doesn't know Qian Jianyi, and thinks that the teacher doesn't like them for causing trouble, so she is suddenly speechless.

However, during the Battle of Baixuelou in Yingzhou, Qian Jianyi came all the way to help.Wu Li hurriedly said: "Master, I'm sorry, the matter is very important. The head of Huangren Ridge Zhu and hundreds of disciples are still locked up in the mountain gate. This waist card is the only trump card. We need to find a chance to be effective, so Specially come to ask the seat teacher for help."

Qian Jianyi pondered for a moment, as if thinking.

Wu Li was about to say a few more words, when Lu Hui suddenly picked it up with a long finger, as fast as lightning, the bronze medal disappeared from the table before everyone saw his movement clearly.

The next moment there was a knock on the Jingsi room door, and a servant came in with a tea tray.

Qian Jianyi glanced at Lu Hui calmly, waited until the servants left the room, took a sip of tea, and made a gesture of invitation, letting the guests go at their own pace.

"What opportunities do you want?" Qian Jianyi said, "The help Sanwen Academy can provide is very limited now."

The guests looked at each other.

Qian Jianyi said: "You guys came from the school, right? There's been a lot of quarrel over there, it's been going on for several days..." He paused for a while, as if trying to figure out the right language, and then said, "Fan Zhang Erqing was demoted from the high hall. , This year, the Guozijian will no longer provide exam places for the academy. Not only you Huangrenling, Sanwen Academy has also encountered suppression at the foot of the emperor, earlier..." He glanced at Feng Zhichang and Xie Zhixu, "The same thing happened to Mr. Feng and Young Master Xie."

Hou Daizhao was probably the mastermind behind the kidnapping of Liang’s family in Suzhou. This is just Feng Zhichang’s guess.However, Qian Jian disagreed with this statement, and he was very sure.

Feng Zhichang and Xie Zhixu exchanged glances, and the two of them immediately understood.Whether it was the tragedy that Feng Zhichang encountered 13 years ago, or the family destruction of Xie Zhixu two years ago, it was all part of a situation that Wang Gan and Hou Daizhao had planned for many years.

What they are after is not the Liang family or Gui Yizhuang, but the entire Wulin.

The guests didn't expect at all that when they came to ask for help, they also fell into the same predicament.Wu Li and Lu Hui originally thought that with the help of the Sanwen Academy, they would have the opportunity to present the bronze medal to the emperor, but the two adults Fan Zhang who could provide the opportunity have already fallen.For a moment no one spoke.

The tea mist is getting colder, and I can't do anything.

Xie Zhixu stared down at the teacup in his hand, and a thought came to his mind.Feng Zhichang sensed it immediately, raised his eyes to glance at him, and saw Xie Zhixu blinking at him, hiding a bad idea.

On the other side, Qian Jianyi suddenly remembered: "Two days later is the day when martial artists with outstanding martial arts from various places are sent to Beijing to perform in front of the Holy House every year. There is a big ostentation, the flow of people is dense and mixed, it may be an opportunity."
