Taiping Inn

Li Xuan has taken the "National Seal" and "Su King" and has fallen back to the messy square.

The city gate of Chengtian Gate has been destroyed by the old man Long's back in the future, and the door is opened. Through the long city gate hole, you can see the densely packed imperial guards in the imperial city. However, these imperial guards have lost their courage and dare not take a step outside the city.

When Li Xuandu's eyes swept over, all the imperial guards subconsciously took a step back.

However, Li Xuan didn't care about them, he was waiting for the other two.

Not long after, two figures fell from the sky, which was Qin Qing and the "Xie Yue Seal" possessed by the saint.

After all, a saint is a saint, and even if it is not the original deity, it is very difficult to deal with and difficult. Therefore, Qin Qing was a little embarrassed and the treasure knife in his hand had been destroyed. In contrast, the "Xie Yue Seal" was still intact.

However, the expressions of the two happened to be reversed. Qin Qing had a faint smile on his face, but "Xie Yueyin" had a solemn expression.

Li Xuandu looked at the "Xie Yueyin" and said, "What the general trend is."

"Xie Yueyin" didn't say anything, just sighed.

After all, it was not the original deity who came to the world. Even if it was him, he could not fight against two, let alone reverse the situation.

Li Xuandu gave the "National Seal" to Qin Qing, left behind the "King Su", then looked at the "Xie Yue Seal" and asked, "I wonder what the saints can give?"

"Xie Yueyin" asked, "What are you planning to deal with the Confucian Sect?"

Qin Qing glanced at Li Xuandu and said nothing. After all, Li Xuandu is the recognized master of the future, and he can even remove the word "future". Li Xuandu is the master of the Taoist sect.

Li Xuandu said: "I have always believed that the unity of the three religions advocated by the Neo-Confucian saints and the Heart-Study saints is the right way. The dispute between Confucian sects and Taoist sects is just a question of who is the main focus, not a life-and-death life and death. hatred."

"Xie Yueyin" sighed long: "The three religions are united."

Li Xuan stopped talking.

Qin Qing held the "national seal" in his palm and was also silent.

Nowadays, the father-in-law and son-in-law, one of whom has obtained the "Su King" and made the Confucian clan bow down. He can be called the leader of the three religions, and the other has obtained the "National Seal". He changed the dynasty and became the emperor of the human world.

The attitudes of the two represent the attitudes of the world.

When the times come, the world and the world work together, the heroes will not be free.

Today, the world is no longer the world of saints.

Even a saint is powerless and helpless.

"Xie Yueyin" felt relieved and smiled. Although it was a little awkward, it was not too sad or angry.

The moon has phases and waxing, and people have rise and fall, good fortune and good fortune. How can there be a truth in the world that will last forever? This is true for Confucianism and Taoism.

"Xie Yue Seal" took his hand, slowly put it down, and said softly: "The world in the world, the things in the world, and the people in the world will make it their own."

Li Xuandu clasped his fists and said, "I respectfully sent the saint back to heaven."

An illusory light and shadow broke away from Xie Yueyin's body and headed towards the sky.

Li Xuandu and Qin Qing looked up and watched the saint pass away.

Only one Xie Yueyin who was unconscious was left.

...

Seeing that the situation was hopeless, Huo Sishi ordered to open all the city gates and go out to welcome the king's army in person. The soldiers of the three camps put down their weapons and surrendered from the city.

On the other hand, Mei Shenglin also led all officials out of the city to welcome the two His Highnesses.

The imperial capital city just fought like this.

At this time, Li Xuan didn't have much joy, only sighs and sighs. He entered the imperial capital three times and finally achieved success on the last time.

...

The severely damaged Yongding Gate slowly opened, and the officials and officials dressed in various official robes went out of the city one after another.

The people in the lead are Mei Shenglin and Huo Sishi.

King Yan and Zhao Lianggeng had escaped from the imperial capital.

A cavalry in black armor slowly walked towards him, and the heavy sound of horse hooves intertwined, like the endless sound of thunder.

After they were settled, the murderous aura came to their faces, making these officials, ministers and officials who were used to being pampered and dizzy, and then they felt a sense of fear.

Some people unconsciously shrink their necks and swallow saliva. There are still people who have already fought two battles and are about to leave first.

At this moment, a figure fell from the sky, and it was Qin Qing.

Huo Sishi and Mei Shenglin immediately bowed to the ground, and the officials behind them also knelt on the ground. .

All the cavalry rolled over and dismounted at the same time, and then knelt on one knee.

Generals such as Qin Xiang and Jing Xiu also dismounted and bowed.

Countless sounds sounded, and the mountains shouted long live, like huge waves, overwhelming.

At this time, there were clearly thousands of people in the world, but it seemed that Qin Qing was the only one.

Qin Qing opened his arms slightly, closed his eyes, and bathed in the mountains.

...

Li Xuan did not walk with Qin Qing, but went to meet the Taoist people and the Confucian people who were temporarily detained.

The captured people include: Huang Shiyuan, the high-priest of the Sheji Academy, Ning Qi, the high-priest of the Wanxiang Academy, Qi Foyan, the mountain master of Jinling Academy, Lu Beiqu, the mountain master of Bailu Academy, Qian Xinyan, and the mountain master of Yueyang Academy. Nangong Dacheng, Hermit Mr. Bai Lu, Fake Immortal Chen Mian, Fake Immortal Nalan Xu.

In addition to the death of Wen Ren, the high-ranking priest of the Wanxiang Academy, Xie Heng, the high-ranking priest of the Tianxin Academy, Yang Song, the high-ranking priest of the saint's mansion, Mrs. Jiang, the hermit Jin Chansou, and the hermit Chi Yangweng chose to break through and escape.

Li Xuan was not in a hurry to chase and kill the fleeing Confucian people. Old man Long was dead, the saint had returned to heaven, and the overall situation was settled. These people were just turtles in the jar, and they were not worth worrying about.

Li Xuandu has always believed that those who are in the right path will have many supporters, while those who are in the wrong path will have few supporters, so he did not intend to kill them all, but asked people to invite those Confucianists who had given up resistance to Yuying Temple, and he wanted to talk with everyone. Chen Mian and Nalanxu were directly classified by Li Xuandu as Taoists.

The main hall of Yuying Temple is very spacious, and there is nothing else except a statue of the Supreme Taoist Ancestor.

Li Xuandu asked people to put a cushion in the hall. He and Qin Su sat in the middle, with their backs to the Supreme Taoist Ancestor. On the left were the Taoists present, and on the right were the captured Confucianists.

The Taoists present this time were: Shen Yuanzhou, Bai Xiushang, Zhang Luanshan, Lan Xuanshuang, Taiwei Zhenren, Sanxuan Zhenren, Wanshou Zhenren, Xiao Shiyu, Madam Leng, and Zuo Yuhan, all of whom were powerful "local lords" in the Taoist sect.

After everyone was seated, Li Xuandu spoke first: "The reason why I invited you all here this time is nothing but the word 'peace'."

Everyone looked at Li Xuandu, waiting for the next words.

Li Xuandu continued: "Before the saint passed away, he once asked me how to deal with Confucianism. I said that the integration of the three religions is the general trend, and the saint did not object. As everyone knows, I am not against Confucianism, and I have never thought of overthrowing or destroying Confucianism. Once upon a time, someone said that I was the most Confucian disciple of Taoism. I am against those who misinterpret the teachings of the sages for their own selfish desires, or those hypocrites who say good things but do bad things. People like Elder Long who go against the trend and commit heinous crimes must be killed."

Everyone present was a thoughtful person, and they could hear the implication of Li Xuandu's words, which was to let him off the hook.

In fact, the Confucians had expected this. In the past few years, Li Xuan had always been merciful and seldom killed anyone. Therefore, the Confucians were willing to give up resistance and surrender to the Taoist sect, rather than fighting to the death and destroying themselves together.

Li Xuandu changed the subject: "Back then, the great sage teacher asked the Supreme Taoist Ancestor for advice, and the origin of Confucianism and Taoism began from this. Until today, not to mention others, I myself also have a lot of roots in Confucianism. My teacher studied in Wanxiang Academy and had a deep friendship with Sikong Dajiu; later, my teacher was in charge of Qingwei Sect, and had a lot of contacts with Yuzhai Master of Sheji Academy; my good friend Ning Gechen is the grandson of Ning Dajiu; my relationship with Zhang Xiang is even more needless to say, Zhang Xiang's nephew Zhang Baizhou, and the daughter of Lu Shanzhu are in love. It is said that the elder brother is like a father. As Baizhou's elder brother, I may even become a relative of Lu Shanzhu."

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere suddenly became relaxed, and all the Confucianists had a few smiles on their faces.

Li Xuandu continued, "The trend of the integration of the three religions and the origins of Confucianism and Taoism show that the dispute between Confucianism is just a quarrel between brothers. It cannot be regarded as the sinking of China, let alone the destruction of the country or the world. Do you agree?"

The Confucianists looked at each other and nodded, "Mr. Qingping is right."

Li Xuandu also smiled and said, "As the saying goes, family, country and the world, the world is like a family. When Confucianism was in charge, Taoism watched from the side and pointed out anything wrong. Now that Taoism is in charge, I hope Confucianism can also watch from the side. If Taoism does something wrong, Confucianism can also point it out. In this way, our two families will join hands and work together to open the door to 'peace' for the people of the world."

After that, Li Xuandu clasped his fists towards everyone present.

Everyone returned the greeting and said yes.

Li Xuandu said: "As for those who escaped, a list will be specially made and made public."

Huang Shiyuan asked carefully: "I wonder how Mr. Qingping plans to deal with them? Although they escaped, the Confucianism and Taoism have been fighting for nearly a hundred years. It is difficult to say who is right and who is wrong. Can we put it aside for the time being and leave it to the glorious history to judge?"

Li Xuandu said without comment: "No matter who it is, as long as they can repent and take practical actions for the great cause of world peace, they can be forgiven."

Li Xuandu paused and said: "As for those who are stubborn and stubborn, Old Man Long is a lesson for them."

The expressions of the Confucian people were different, but no one objected.

After a while, Mr. Bai Lu slowly asked, "Mr. Qingping just said 'practical action', what does it mean specifically?"

Qin Su, who had been silent all this time, smiled and said, "Some people say that the Confucian School is the largest landlord in the world. Take the Saint's Mansion for example, there are as many as 120,000 acres of land under his name, and more than 10,000 tenants. However, Duke Yansheng has repented, cleared all the land under his name, and paid the corresponding taxes. We hope that you gentlemen can follow the example of Duke Yansheng and centrally clear the land of various university palaces and academies."

The Confucian School knew that this was digging at the foundation of the Confucian School, but now the situation is stronger than people, and they cannot refuse, so no one took the initiative to speak for a while.

Qin Su had expected this and added, "As long as the land is cleared, the remaining land will be legally owned. You are still the chief priests of the academy and the mountain masters of the academy. The Taoist sect has no intention of taking over or interfering in other people's affairs. Please rest assured."

The Confucian sect looked at each other again. They all understood a simple truth. What they couldn't get on the battlefield, they couldn't get at the negotiation table. This was already the best result. They had to agree and promised to clear the land.

Of course, if they wanted to break their promise in the future, someone would naturally help them keep their promise. If they played tricks in secret and didn't want to be decent, someone would help them be decent. But Li Xuan would never say such words.

Li Xuan gave Qin Su a look and asked her to continue discussing the follow-up details with the Confucian people. He stood up and left, and went to see Chen Mian and Nalan Xu again.

Li Xuan both valued the two very much.

First, the two have no much bonds with the Confucian clan and the royal family, so they can be used with confidence.

Second, it is like killing parents. Li Xuan wants to clean up the fields of the world, so naturally some people have to fight to the death. In the future, they will have to suppress gentry from all over the country. People in the Taoist sect will inevitably have close ties with gentry from all over the country. With a lot of resistance, these two people are two sharp swords that are hard to bear.

...

After nine years of peace, on May 29, the Liaodong army officially entered the imperial capital.
