Taiping Inn

The closest city to Baidi City is Shuangqing Prefecture. This city has a slightly special status and is still under the jurisdiction of the Great Wei court in name. However, because it is very close to Shuzhou, it has to be close to Dazhou and secretly Tongqiuqu, and then with the Qingyang Cult's forces, the city at the junction of the three parties has become a de facto neutral city, with fish and dragons mixed together. In the words of people in the martial arts world, this city is not a good place. Have your own rules.

The local snake family, which has been rooted here for generations in the city, not only raises dead soldiers, but also raises private soldiers, equipped with iron armored bows and arrows, and even established cavalry. This is hard to imagine in the Central Plains, because according to the laws of the Great Wei Dynasty, private soldiers The above things are equivalent to rebellion, and only in such a remote place where the emperor is far away can this scene be seen. However, these families are not as good as the Qin family and Qian family, and their influence is limited to a single mansion. The Qin family, Qian family and Li family, through trade, mergers and acquisitions of land, control gangs, and absorb local gentry to rely on them. The means of funding the imperial officials and other means have at least influence in one state, or even several states. It can be supported behind the scenes of the border officials and manipulated wars. It can be said that the princes were furious and they were afraid, and they no longer had to do it themselves.

In addition to these families that already have a slightly aristocratic family atmosphere, there are also a large number of outlaws in Shuangqing Mansion. Everyone is doing all kinds of shameful activities, or they can't make ends meet in other places and are chased by enemies. Hiding here, he has a shameful identity, all kinds of things.

For ordinary people in the martial arts world, if they go to Shuangqing Mansion, they must be careful everywhere and abide by the rules. If they are not careful and break the rules, they may lose their lives. Or they are targeted by criminals and die in a battle without sudden outbreaks. However, for the big figures in the world, there is no such worry. Although the strong dragon of crossing the river does not suppress the local snake, it does not mean that the local snake can turn around and humiliate the crossing river. It is nothing more than the harmonious coexistence between the two sides, and maybe even more. Can take on some incense points.

So at Yan Feiqing's suggestion, Li Xuandu and his group decided to go to Shuangqing Mansion, where Su Yunxian and others were waiting for the follow-up matters to handle the follow-up matters. When they arrived here, they could return to Wuzhou and go to the Grand Grand Mansion located in Shangqing Mansion. In the real mansion, I went to attend the wedding of Yan Feiqing and Su Yunxian.

Li Xuan and Qin Su both agreed to the ceremony, but Li Xuan agreed to Yan Feiqing, but Qin Su agreed to Su Yunxian. If you want to discuss it in detail, Li Xuan will be considered a guest on the man's side. However, Qin Su accidentally became a guest on the woman's side. If he could not sit in the same seat when he entered the table, Li Xuan would sit with a group of Taoist priests of Zhengyi Sect, and perhaps there would be previous enemies among them. She sat with the woman from Cihang Sect that she didn't like, and maybe she would even see Bai Xiushang, which would be a joke.

The group hired two carriages to go to Shuangqing Mansion. The coachman was used to walking to Shuangqing Mansion and probably sent many guests. Seeing that Li Xuandu's group did not look like the world dressed in a short dress. He was a young man and a woman, and both had wide robes and big sleeves, and he looked like a young man who was out to travel around the country. He kindly told Li Xuandu and others about the rules of Shuangqing Mansion, and during this time he also looked at the two young man. And two ladies. The two women, the older one, seemed to have difficulty in legs and feet, looked soft and ignorant, and at first glance they looked like they were innocent and innocent; the younger one, with a little bookish look, looking at them He is also a weak scholar. He should be a daughter of a great man who has read some books, but in Shuangqing Mansion, scholars are not worth it. As for the two young masters, each has its own strengths. One is like the kind of character in the book, with a handsome and handsome character, with a fairy spirit, which makes people forget the customs. The other young master seems to be the same as the young lady with a bookish spirit. Yes, he is also a scholar. The two often whisper and occasionally the chuckle of a young woman would come, which made the coachman feel itchy.

As for the second carriage, his younger brother was responsible for driving the car, which were all the followers of these young ladies, including maids and old servants.

Before arriving at Shuangqing Prefecture, the coachman explained many recent situations in the city. The city can be divided into three major forces. One is the Gongsun family, which has been rooted in the city for the longest time. It is said to be the descendant of the former King of Shu and the lord of the Baidi City Gongsun family. Not only did he recruit a large number of outlaws, but he also trained many deadly killers and killers, and his family head also had a good cultivation level. The second is the Ximen family, the largest wealthy businessman in the city, which controls half of the business in the city, and even a street belongs to the Ximen family, which shows how big its business is. At the same time, the Ximen family relies on its huge financial resources to support thousands of private soldiers. Unlike ordinary official troops, these private soldiers were equipped with iron armored crossbows, including 800 cavalry, which were called servants by the Ximen family. Finally, there is the Siji Temple, the lower sect of Zhenyan Sect, which is considered an alien to this city. It is precisely because of the existence of these monks that Shuangqing Palace will not completely lose control. Many battles that affect the entire city are all caused by the Siji Temple. In mediation, the intellectual figures of both sides also made a covenant in the Four Truth Temple, so the status of Kalan Temple is extremely transcendent.

Li Xuandu asked the coachman why the top figures in this city are all partial surnames. The coachman was speechless and could only stammer and said that the compound surname is probably more noble. Qin Su said another sentence, why is the Emperor of the Great Wei single surname? The coachman was speechless and didn't know how to answer.

Just when the driver was a little angry, Qin Su gave him a silver ingot and asked him to go directly to the largest Taiping Inn in the city. The driver's anger suddenly disappeared, and he secretly laughed at these young men and women who didn't know the principle of not showing off their wealth. Sooner or later, they would be unlucky. Little did he know that for Miss Qin, a small silver ingot of less than three taels was really too small to be any smaller.

Of course, there is also a Taiping Inn opened by the Taiping Sect in this city, but compared with Taiping Inns in other places, the charges of Taiping Inns here are very exaggerated. Just staying in the worst guest room for one night costs one tael of silver, while the upper-class guest room costs ten taels of silver per night. As for the small courtyard with a single door and a single house, it costs one Taiping coin per day. It's just worth the money, because Taiping Inn is just as its name suggests, it guarantees safety. Taiping Sect and Shingon Sect have reached an agreement that the Four Truths Temple will be responsible for taking care of the Taiping Inn here, so Taiping Inn is also a piece of pure land in this city.

The carriage stopped in front of the gate of the inn, and a waiter came out to greet them. This time, Li Xuandu didn't need to make arrangements. Qin Bu Si came forward and directly booked a separate courtyard. Then Li Xuandu sent a message to Su Yun'an, waiting for them to meet here.

Li Xuandu, Yan Feiqing, and Qin Su came to the main hall of the courtyard and sat down separately.

Although Li Xuandu and others were young and proud, and had a good status in the martial arts world, they were not so detached from the world. In addition to practicing martial arts and cultivating Taoism, they did not discuss the general situation of the martial arts world in their spare time. Occasionally, they would talk about gossip. For example, when Li Xuandu and Qin Su were alone, they rarely talked about serious things, but mostly flirted. At this time, the dust settled in Baidi City, and they put down their worries. Li Xuandu and others did not need to continue to study the situation of the martial arts world with deep hatred. It was like a friend visiting. The host and hostess chatted with the guests together, which made Yan Feiqing sigh in his heart. Li Xuandu and Qin Su had known each other for a short time, but they had some feelings of an old married couple. If nothing unexpected happened, he and Su Yun'an would go to attend their wedding soon.

After the three of them talked about the marriage of Yan and Su for a while, Qin Su suddenly said: "Recently, I often dreamed when I took a nap. I dreamed of several vague scenes. It seemed to be Yunjin Mountain, which was covered with dark clouds and was very scary."

"Yunjin Mountain?" Yan Feiqing was slightly startled: "This is another name for Tianshi Mountain. Later, because the first generation of Tianshi established Zhengyi Sect here, it was renamed Tianshi Mountain. Could it be that Miss Qin has been to Yunjin Mountain?"

Qin Su smiled shyly: "I have been there as an ordinary pilgrim, but I didn't go to the Great Zhenren Mansion. I just took a look from a distance."

"Then this time Miss Qin and Brother Zifu are guests at the Great Zhenren Mansion, and I must do my best to be a good host." Yan Feiqing said politely, and then asked: "I wonder why Miss Qin has such a dream?"

Qin Su hesitated for a moment and said: "I think it may be because I have recently learned the 'fate-seeing'."
