Fast wear in the martial arts world

"Girl, it's windy."

In the chilly spring, a green pine and cypress climbs up from the cliff and stands beside the vermilion pavilion.

The north wind whizzed past, rolled up the clothes of the people in the pavilion, and occasionally three or two crimson petals swayed in the wind, falling tremblingly on her shoulders, making the figure even more ethereal, as if she would become a fairy in the next moment.

"Whew..."

Haidong Qinghongdou hovered above his head endlessly. His eagle eyes looked at Acacia who had disappeared into the mountains along with Yu Canaan. It didn't fly back to Li Qing's side reluctantly until it could no longer see the figure of the female eagle. Yingtou begged for comfort and seemed to be dawdling under Li Qing's hands.

Li Qing looked sideways and stroked the red beans silently, with complicated emotions in her eyes.

The maid Zhu Dan walked up to Li Qing with a fiery red fox fur, draped it on Li Qing's thin body, brushed off the peach petals that fell from her shoulders, and said hesitantly, "Miss, do you want to part with Mr. Yu?"

Li Qing let out a long mouthful of turbid air, which turned into white mist and dissipated in the north wind.

She turned her head to the side and said lightly: "After returning home, don't take care of the master's affairs again. We are all girls in the back house, and the people in the world should have nothing to do with us."

"Girl?" Zhu Dan stared in astonishment.

"What the girl said is very true."

Nanny Ji came out slowly from the Changchun Pavilion, and smiled a little when she heard the words.

She is Li Qing's nurturing mother arranged by her family. Li Bangyan worried that Li Qing would lose the etiquette and demeanor of a noble girl if she lived away from the world all year round. Marry into the palace with love, accompany her confidant, and teach the things of life in the palace.

"What a noble girl, how can she be worthy of being in the wild? I was thinking that the girl might have been stunned, but now it seems that the girl has a bright eye." Ji Nanny said comfortingly, "Based on the girl Wait for the temperament to have a promising future."

Li Qing curled her lips expressionlessly, not wanting to say more.Then he changed the subject and said, "Is everything arranged properly?"

Aunt Ji replied yes.

"Let's go."

Li Qing once again took a deep look at the rolling hills, winding mountain roads, and the picturesque Xiaoyao Temple with ten miles of peach trees nearby.

Misty peak covered with rime like a canopy...

The friendship of the same family...

Together with her best ten years will be sealed in the depths of memory with her departure.

Since then, there will be no more Li Canghai in the world.

***

Before hurrying to Bianjing, Li Qing went back to Dongting Lake.

Liu Ba, who got the news in advance, was so excited that he got up early, and hurriedly ordered his servants to clean up the sanitation in the mansion, and went to the Shili Pavilion outside the city to wait for Li Qing.

"Grandpa."

Seeing the burly Liu Ba with gray temples from a distance, Li Qing got off the horse and shouted sweetly.

"Hey!" Liu Ba responded with a deep voice, his radiant eyes were tinged with tenderness, he stepped forward and patted his granddaughter on the shoulder, carefully scrutinizing Li Qing's complexion, seeing her rosy complexion, There was no trace of fatigue from a weak disease in his gestures, and he couldn't help laughing happily: "Okay! My grandson has taken care of himself, right?"

"Grandpa Lao is worried. Thanks to the two masters who have taken care of my body these years, although my weakness has not been eradicated, my body is no different from ordinary people."

Li Qing smiled.

"That's good." Liu Ba smiled so that the wrinkles between his brows loosened, "When I learned that my granddaughter is coming, grandpa ordered his servants to clean up your boudoir. You will have to stay longer this time. .Grandpa misses you to death!"

"I'm afraid it won't work." Li Qing shook his head, "The general election is imminent, and time is tight. I will rest here for the night, and I will rush back to Bianjing tomorrow."

Liu Ba was obviously a little disappointed, but he didn't force him to stay. He patted Li Qing on the shoulder and said, "In this case, my good grandson should go home and rest first, so that he can go on his way tomorrow after he has recovered enough energy."

Li Qing nodded with a smile, and said as she walked, "Grandpa, how is the matter I entrusted to you three years ago going?"

She also has important things to do when she comes to Dongting Lake this time.Ever since realizing that the Northern Song Dynasty was about to perish, Li Qing felt a sense of urgency in her heart.

As early as a few years ago, she began to plan, but money and food support were indispensable for any incident, and with the magic mirror in hand, Li Qing inevitably had the idea of ​​​​water.

Liu Ba was born by the Dongting Lake. He was a good diver since he was a child. By chance, he was valued by the head of the sect. He learned martial arts all over. After that, he occupied the five hundred miles of Dongting waters and established a huge power.

With Liu Ba's current ability, he not only supported the livelihood of tens of thousands of people with his own strength, but even the dilapidated and corrupt Northern Song Dynasty government had to rely on him to live.

It is said that people rely on mountains to eat mountains, and water to eat water.The people living by the waters all make a living by fishing, and Liu Ba not only raised hundreds of fishing boats, but also trained a group of pearl divers who dived every day to collect pearls, which not only saved him a huge fortune. Wealth and family business, and it is also one of the sources of wealth for the Xiaoyao faction.

It was also by relying on the tribute paid by Liu Ba and the branch of the merchant branch that the Xiaoyao Sect was able to build a magnificent mountain palace and cultivate the aristocratic temperament of the apprentices of Misty Peak.

However, pearl fishing is a life-threatening and dangerous occupation. The pearl-digging girl has practiced the secret method of breath-hold diving since she was three years old, and it takes ten years to achieve success.

Due to the defects of secret method, the practice of this method will damage the spleen and lungs, so the life span of pearl-diversing women in the past is less than [-] years.And not everyone is qualified to practice the secret method of breath-hold diving. Even if the reward is extremely generous, only poor families or those who do not spare girls will let their daughters do this profession.

In her early years, Li Qing lived in Liu's residence for a while.Liu Ba has never shy away from her about the family property. He only has one daughter in this life. In the future, the property will belong to the forces under the Xiaoyao faction, and the rest will be entrusted to these descendants. Therefore, he took Li Qing to inspect the property everywhere.

Later, Li Qing accidentally learned about the pearl-diversing girl, and at the same time she developed a heart of compassion, she used the magic mirror to find out the cultivation method of freshwater pearls, which is why she fell ill and fainted.

When Li Qing joined the Xiaoyao faction, under the indulgence of Xiaoyaozi turning a blind eye, with Liu Ba as a contact, Li Qing used the magic mirror to search out the method of making canned food and delivered it to Liu Ba, and organized people to teach ordinary people how to make canned food. How fishermen make cans.

After all the fishermen learned this skill, Li Qing set up a canned food purchase shop, and asked the shops under the name of Liu's family to go door-to-door to buy canned fish, and sold the canned food to the inland of the Northern Song Dynasty with the help of his father's famous post. region, thus establishing a complete and huge industrial and commercial chain.

This move of hers made everyone in Dongting Lake, including the government, a lot of money, and made the name of Ms. Sun of the Liu family a household name. Even after learning that she was suffering from a weak disease, many fishermen were in Li Qing's Longevity Card was enshrined at home...

Since then, the people in the three cities and seven counties in the five hundred miles of Dongting Lake have no worries about food and clothing, and there are no more beggars and vagrants.This move also brought back the forces of the large and small islands in Dongting Lake, all of which were dominated by Li Qing.

At the same time, Li Qing also relied on these to obtain a complete intelligence organization.

These things can't be hidden from Xiaoyaozi. Compared with the other three apprentices who are obsessed with love, Li Qing's actions are suitable for Xiaoyaozi's successor, but it's a pity that everyone has their own ambitions.

Xiaoyaozi proposed to hand over Dongting Lake to Li Qing, but it was just to give her a pretext to rule the power in a legitimate way, otherwise no matter which apprentice he entrusted the 72 islands of Dongting Lake to, it would be impossible for the owner of the 72 islands to truly obey.

It's just causing trouble.

After completely conquering the 72 islands of Dongting Lake, Li Qing asked Liu Ba to help orphans all over the country, and sent them to the orphanage run by Liu Mansion to raise them and teach various skills, and then divide them into literary, martial, and business according to their talents and preferences. , medicine and other aspects of intensive training.

Now that five years have passed, several of these orphans have been selected or won the gold list. Li Qing secretly intervened in the appointment of officials in the name of Li Bangyan and sent those who were loyal to her to the three cities and seven counties of Dongting Lake. The prestige here is unmatched.

However, she has been hiding behind her grandfather all these years, and even Li Qing's own father doesn't know that she has accumulated such a huge power in secret.

The situation is becoming more and more serious now, and it has been less than three years since the Northern Song Dynasty destroyed the country.Li Qing felt more and more that time was running out, and she always felt that her preparations were still insufficient.

"Don't worry, grandson, Grandpa has already taken care of that for you!"

Liu Ba's eyes flashed slightly, and he showed a finger full of hints.

Three years ago, Li Qing gave the secret blueprints of the method of training soldiers and Thunderbolt. After Liu Ba received it, he secretly summoned and cultivated the orphans of the military department, and brought these people into the secret base to train day and night. One block a hundred, but these people have fists and kicks in their hands, and it is not difficult to block one, ten, and twenty.

And Liu Ba's one finger is in the tens of thousands.

In other words, she has [-] soldiers under her command.

A relaxed smile appeared on Li Qing's face, "Grandfather, please worry."

Liu Ba laughed loudly: "I do something for my good grandson, why don't you bother me? Isn't this a stranger?"

After all, there are so many people outside, Liu Ba didn't say much about it, and changed the topic, "My good grandson is going home this time to be married, and it will be difficult to come back in the future, so Qiao'er's store sent a lot of new models There are gold, silver, emerald and pearls, good grandson, you have to choose carefully, and take away what you like, and treat it as grandpa's makeup for you..."

"Then I'm welcome!"

Li Qingyan laughed at Yanyan, and stretched out her arms to wrap Liu Ba's shoulders like a little bird, which made Liu Ba burst into laughter.

"You fine girl, why are you being polite to your grandpa! Choose more, if you like, you can evacuate the Liu residence!"

"What's the point of evacuating Liu's residence? I want to move grandpa away." Li Qing pouted.

"Silly girl, is it possible for you to bring your grandfather along and get married?"

"Why not?" Li Qing asked back.

"How does this happen?" Liu Ba shook his head helplessly.

Li Qing smiled without saying a word.

Even though Liu Ba watched her do a lot of things, even participated in them personally and was overwhelmed by Li Qing's ability, in his heart Li Qing was just a woman after all.

The duty of a woman is to be a husband and a child.After an ordinary girl marries into her husband's family, she can't even return to her natal family without her husband's family's consent, not to mention that Li Qing is going to join the most arrogant royal family in the world.

In Liu Ba's view, all that Li Qing is doing to prepare for a rainy day is just for her to live a happy life in the harem, and no matter how ambitious she is, it is just to make her child become the master of the world.

This is a concept created by this era, and Li Qing is not sad or angry about it, it's just human nature.
