Taiping Inn

The palace official stood up and walked outward, and Li Xuandu had to follow her.

The rain outside is getting smaller and smaller, from heavy rain to drizzle. Logically speaking, it shouldn't be that heavy rain in autumn like a summer rain, so it is reasonable that it is difficult to last.

The palace official put the folding fan that had never left his hand into his sleeve, picked up the oil-paper umbrella left by Youshuang here, and spread it open, like a large yellow fallen leaf.

Then the palace official walked side by side with Li Xuandu, holding an umbrella for him personally, and exposing half of his body to the rain.

Li Xuan just took a look and said nothing.

The palace official angrily said, "The Zi Mansion is so ruthless. Even Mrs. Long, you are willing to give some kindness, but when you come to me, you are so stingy."

Li Xuandu said calmly: "Where does the palace girl need someone to give to Li? "

The palace official chuckled and said, "The Zi Mansion is an amateur. Whether a woman needs it or not is one thing, and whether a man gives it or not is another thing. In other words, I can not give it, but you can't give it. If there is someone you like in the Purple Mansion in the future, it will suffer."

Li Xuandu made up his mind to keep a distance from this female sect Xuan Shengji. From the things of the Long family today, it can be seen that she is an unscrupulous person to achieve her goals. Although Li Xuandu has not had much prejudice to this. , but he does not agree with it, and he does not want to have anything to do with this "witch" before he returns to the true realm.

The palace official held an umbrella in one hand and pinched the corner of his clothes like a little daughter. His chin was slightly raised, and he looked at Li Xuandu with a charming posture, and said softly: "If it is a woman that Xuandu doesn't like..."

Before she could finish her words, Li Xuan interrupted with an expressionless face, "Thank you for your kindness to the palace girl."

The woman sighed, "Why are the Zi Mansion guarding me everywhere? If it is because of the Female Sect, then the Zi Mansion will underestimate my palace officials too much. I was adopted by my master since I was a child, and it is not my origin in the Female Sect. Originally, you think the female sect is a piece of mud and turbid water, but the lotus can also come out of the mud without staining. I thought the Zifu was a transcendent person, but I didn't expect you to be like this..."

The woman's words were deeply affectionate and each word was sad. If someone else had to think that she had committed a heinous sin, she would be unable to cleanse her sins, but Li Xuandu still did not do anything about it. He said slowly in a very peaceful tone without any personal emotions: "Miss Gong, I am not prejudice against you, but you are a member of the ten evil sects, and I am a member of the twelve righteous sects, No matter how many tacit understanding there is between good and evil, on the surface, good and evil are still incompatible. As the palace girl said just now, there are some things that are not four ounces without weighing the scale, but if you put them on the scale, you will be able to use them. It’s not a thousand pounds to beat us. We are not a fellow person, and we have different ways of doing things, and we don’t know what to do with each other…”

This time, the palace official suddenly interrupted Li Xuandu's words and said quietly, "Don't call me a palace girl in Zifu, it's too unfamiliar. You can call me a palace official or an official."

Li Xuan was suddenly stuck.

He has seen many women, but the only woman he really has contacted is Zhang Baiyue.

Zhang Baiyue is Zhang Suqing's daughter. Although she is gentle and generous, she is polite. She would not say such words. Even among the children of the world who have always been careless, it is rare.

Li Xuandu looked back on his past fifteen years of career in the world, and his previous ten years of learning career, the twenty-five years of spring and autumn were mostly wind swords and snow swords, and swords and swords. When did he have such red sleeves? A beautiful figure? For men, women are just a bright embellishment between black, white and gray.

Just as Li Xuandu was distracted and immersed in his past thoughts, the palace official had already quietly wrapped around one of Li Xuandu's arms, and his tone actually had a little coquettish sense: "Zi Mansion, I heard you want to escort a loyal minister to Longmen Mansion in Zhongzhou? Although I am a member of the Holy Sect, I still have a little awe for these loyal and kind people, especially those who dare to show their ambitions by dying and showing their ambitions, I still have some awe. Why don't you bring me with me? I now have the cultivation level of the Guizhen Realm. Even if I can't compare to you back then, I'm still so powerful than the bearded man around you. As long as I am here, as long as I am not a few of Qingluanwei The right governor arrived in person, and it was easy to send a few Qingluan Guards..."

Li Xuandu finally came back to his senses, gently pulled his arm back, and said calmly, "Miss Gong, please respect yourself."

Although he has lost his cultivation level of Guizhen Realm, it does not mean that his backbone will be gone. What should you do and what rules should you follow in life are related to your status, but there is no absolute The relationship. The Confucian sub-sage saints have already made it clear: "Wealth and honor cannot be lustful, poverty and humbleness cannot be moved, and power and force cannot be betrayed. This is called a real man." This sentence was taught to him by Zhang Suqing, and it is also a word and a word and a word and a word and a word and a word." The words were made for him to see, so Li Xuan kept it in mind for the next few years and dared not forget it for a moment.

The palace official withdrew his hand in disappointment, bit his lips lightly, his eyes grimly, and he was about to cry.

Li Xuandu stopped suddenly and wanted to walk outside the mansion.

But the situation is stronger than that of others. He now only has the pitiful Xuanyuan realm cultivation, but the palace official is in a real realm of return to the true realm. He looked ahead and suddenly came back. No matter how Li Xuan left, he could not get rid of her. It was always around Li Xuandu's side, and even the position of holding the umbrella had not changed much.

Li Xuandu knew the huge gap between Xuanyuan Realm and Guizhen Realm, so he had to stop and no longer do useless work.

At this moment, the palace official was like a weak woman abandoned by a heartless man, pitiful, but reluctant to let go of the heartless man.

Fortunately, there was no one around, otherwise no matter how much Li Xuandu wanted to be a gentleman, he would have no way to defend himself.

Helplessly, Li Xuandu could only continue to walk with her under the umbrella, but they walked deep into the Long family mansion. Li Xuandu asked, "Where are we going?"

The palace official raised a subtle arc at the corner of his mouth, "Zifu might as well guess."

Li Xuandu pondered for a moment and said, "The big show that Miss Gong asked me to watch has been watched. Those who should have seen it have seen it, and those who should die and those who should not die have all died. Is there any mystery in this Long family mansion? I can't guess it."

The palace official smiled without saying a word, and led Li Xuandu to continue moving forward.

As the two walked, they passed through the inner courtyard of the Long family mansion and came to the deepest part.

There is only one hall here, which is five meters deep and nine meters wide, but only two meters high, so people outside the wall cannot see this hall.

The two stopped in front of the hall. The palace official pointed to the open door and said with a smile: "This is the retreat of Long Xiaoyun, the head of the Long family. Zifu, you have been to the Imperial Capital. Even if you have not seen the Gan Palace, you should have heard of it. This hall is modeled after the Gan Palace. Long Xiaoyun is an ordinary citizen with no title or official position, but he dared to do such a thing that violates the rules. He really thought that he was the real dragon emperor because there was a word "dragon" in his name. Such a foolish person deserves death. As for Sun Hui, he is greedy. If he is really allowed to go out and serve as an official, I am afraid that the people of the place will suffer. I killed them today, but I got rid of two disasters for the world."

Li Xuan did not comment.

The two walked in. The hall was empty at this time, but it was full of colorful silk curtains. Passing through the silk curtains, there was only a square cushion in the deepest part of the hall, but there was no one on the cushion.

The palace official walked forward, kicked the cushion away, and took out two exquisite embroidered cushions from the silver bell on his wrist, placed them on the left and right, and stretched out his hand and said: "Purple Mansion, please sit down."

Li Xuandu lifted the hem of his robe and sat down peacefully.

The two sat opposite each other. The palace official looked at Li Xuandu with burning eyes and said solemnly: "Today, there is no one around here, only you and me. What I say next can only be heard by Zifu. Please answer me truthfully, is it okay?"

After hearing this, Li Xuandu did not agree immediately, but thought for a long time in silence before nodding and saying: "Miss Gong, please speak."
