That year, that cicada, that sword

Chapter 368 Keeping the Clouds and Seeing the Moonlight

In the past, Xu Beiyou seemed to be guarding outside his own treasure house without a key, but now he has a glimpse of the dawn. As long as he can use all the legacy of his master, wouldn't he have all the foundation of such a great sword sect?
Xu Beiyou, who was in a daze, didn't even notice that Li Qingyu and the Dragon King had arrived in front of him. It wasn't until Li Qingyu called out to Mr. Xu that he suddenly came back to his senses.

Xu Beiyou asked cautiously, "I don't know what advice Mr. Li has?"

"I can't talk about advice." Li Qingyu shook his head and said, "I already know the reason for Mr. Xu's visit, but all the actions of the Li family before were caused by my father's old age and confusion. Be open."

Xu Beiyou said with a chuckle, "Xu Moujie is a junior, how dare he say anything in front of Mr. Li."

"Mr. Xu, don't be humble. No one in Jiangnan doesn't know Mr. Xu's name." Li Qingyu sighed: "Even if Qingyu is a few years older, the Dragon King of Buddhism will always be above Qingyu, not to mention that there is a second assistant in the court." Old Han Ge."

Xu Beiyou was silent for a while, and said: "Since Mr. Li has already talked about this, then I will ask directly. Does Mr. Li want to change the family with the Li family?"

Li Qingyu nodded and said: "Your Majesty has made up his mind. Although it can't be said that Prime Minister Lan's situation is over now, in my opinion, Prime Minister Lan is dying. In all fairness, I have no friendship with Prime Minister Lan. On the contrary, it is my father who has a close relationship with Prime Minister Lan." Deep, and I am not in the same way as my father, so changing the family is a matter of course."

Seeing that Xu Beiyou was silent, Li Qingyu continued to speak slowly: "Since Yu Kuang took office as the left commander of the rear army, Prime Minister Lan has not had many chess pieces to use in Jiangnan. Just to cause some troubles for Mr. Han Ge, far from being the winner of the comeback. If the Li family still insists on going their own way according to my father's will, the end will be nothing more than family ruin, and Li Qingyu has no choice but to do it."

Xu Beiyou smiled and said: "Since Mr. Li is so sincere, Xu will boldly agree to come down for Elder Han Ge and Governor Yu."

Although Li Qingyu is the reincarnation of Zhang Zai, he doesn't have much pedantic air of a Confucian scholar. On the contrary, he is very familiar with official affairs, and he said: "The Li family defected, and most of the other six families will stand by and watch, so the whole Huzhou can be regarded as Han Pavilion." The old land, together with Xie’s Jiangzhou and Mr. Xu’s Jiangdu, more than half of Jiangnan is under His Majesty’s control. Half of the world’s taxes and food come from Jiangnan. If you make a fuss about money and food, you will lose the capital to bargain with His Majesty, and even if there are arrangements in other places, it will be difficult to restore the overall situation."

Xu Beiyou said softly: "I'm afraid Lan Xiang will not let go of Jiangnan willingly, and most of the time, we will make some moves. We are on the same boat now, and we should work together. Only by blocking Lan Xiangye's tricks can Jiangnan be successful." is ours."

Li Qingyu nodded without refuting.

Fighting in the temples, taxing food, and belonging to the south of the Yangtze River.Wu Yu was shocked when she heard it. She was originally a lady from an official family, and she was no stranger to officialdom. She had never heard Xu Beiyou mention the temple before, and she didn't pay much attention to it. Disputes in the temple.But today she realized that this senior brother's ambition was far beyond her expectation.

Why did Sapphire allow the majestic emperor to tolerate three points?The benefit of teachers and students is only one of them, what is more important is that Sapphire's people control many key points, the emperor needs to rely on Sapphire's people to earn money for the treasury, use Sapphire's people to stabilize the place, and even use Sapphire’s people go to guard the frontier. Take the salt tax as an example. If others are used to patrol the salt, the maximum is only two or three million taels. But if Sapphire’s people patrol the salt personally, the salt tax can reach more than ten million taels. .

If he rashly touches Lan Yu, what will the government do?That's why it was necessary to revive Han Xuan, first slowly disintegrate the foundation of Sapphire, and finally strike with a thunderbolt.

It is not feasible to rely solely on officials and yamen to be in power, but also to rely on local tyrants. The so-called tyrants are nothing more than aristocratic families and sects.

If the two do not get along, the local tyrants need to deal with the officials. They don’t need any drastic measures, just cut the flesh with a blunt knife. After all, the officials are foreigners from outside. Officials generally don't dare to do anything to them, but they have a lot of ways to make officials tied up everywhere, and even government orders don't leave the Yamen. In the end, the people's livelihood in the jurisdiction is withered, and they can only leave in despair.

Wu Yu's father is the chief envoy of Qizhou, so she naturally has a deep feeling for the powerful local forces. The reason why she joined Yanyulou in the first place was because of her intention to befriend the local forces.

Now it seems that Lan Yu controls the officials, and Xu Beiyou starts from the local tyrants. Now that the Li family is the leader of Huzhou, the life of the Huzhou Third Division will be difficult.

Thinking that Xu Beiyou's hand was responsible for such a great deal, Wu Yu couldn't help but sigh in his heart, how old is he?One year younger than himself, it is hard to imagine that a few years ago he was facing the loess in the northwest, and his back was facing the sky.

Wu Yu subconsciously stroked the drooping temples, and remained silent for a long time.

At this time, Li Qingyu had already personally supported Li Zijian, who was lifeless, and walked to the Li family mansion first, followed by Xu Beiyou and the other three.

At this time, the Li family mansion has calmed down, and Mrs. Li can be seen standing in front of the Li family mansion from a distance, with a group of guests offering offerings behind her.

Anyone who wasn't blind could see the previous vision of heaven and earth clearly. Now, looking at Li Zijian's miserable appearance and the high-spirited Li Qingyu, as long as he wasn't a fool, everyone would know that the Li family had changed.

After Li Qingyu approached, a large crowd, no fewer than a hundred people, fell to their knees in an instant.

Li Qingyu waved his hand and said, "Send the old man to rest."

Immediately, two high priests stepped forward, carefully took Li Zijian from Li Qingyu's hand, and helped him to go to the Houfu.

Li Qingyu stretched out his hand to Xu Beiyou and the others, "Please invite the distinguished guest into the house."

"Please." Xu Beiyou also stretched out his hand and took the first step.

There was a housekeeper leading the way, and Li Qingyu walked a few steps behind, walking side by side with his wife, and said calmly: "Father's cultivation has been completely abolished, and he is no different from a disabled person. I am afraid that he will not have a good life for a few years. The young master has also explained that from now on, the Li family will change their family."

Although Mrs. Li had guessed earlier, she still couldn't help showing shock after hearing what her husband said.

Li Qingyu said softly: "The current Li family is our Li family." The woman said softly, "Isn't that good?"

"Okay, of course." Li Qingyu raised his head and looked at the sky above his head. The black clouds that gathered before causing the vision of heaven and earth had all dissipated, leaving only a bright and clear sky.

The woman asked softly, "What are you looking at?"

Li Qingyu murmured: "Should the clouds open to see the moonlight."
