Spring and Autumn Confucian Heroes

Chapter 424
The Songshan School is the most powerful sect in the Song Kingdom and one of the top sects in Kyushu.

Zuo Qingcheng was born in the Songshan School, he is still a senior brother of the younger generation of the Songshan School, and he and Huan Chang are life and death friends.

The last time on Samsara Island, after Zuo Qingcheng was humiliated by that perverted woman, she immediately returned to the Songshan School to retreat, and vowed not to join the Sheifan sect and never to leave the sect.

Therefore, even though Huan Chang had been in Song State for a long time, he had never met Zuo Qingcheng.

Today, Zuo Qingcheng suddenly sent a letter, how could Huan Chang not be overjoyed?

"Brother Qingcheng invited me to the Songshan School."

After reading the contents of the letter, Huan Chang couldn't help frowning slightly.

With Huan Chang's current status, it is not appropriate to rush to the Songshan School. The most important thing is that now is the critical period for the implementation of the new law, and Huan Chang can't get away at all.

Putting the letter on the case table, Huan Chang paced back and forth in the room with his hands behind his back, his eyes wandering.

During this period of time, he was in a high position in the Song Dynasty, but Huan Chang felt more and more tired.

After all, Huan Changxin is in the rivers and lakes rather than temples. Compared with the complicated courts, he prefers to wander in the rivers and lakes. Even if he is fighting with life and death, he will feel hearty.

But now, Huan Chang felt that a shackle was put on his body, and he desperately longed to regain his freedom.

"Hey."

Thinking of the complicated affairs in his hands and Zuo Qingcheng's kindness to him, Huan Chang couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

"Why is my lord sighing?"

Just when Huan Chang was struggling, he suddenly heard a voice from behind, and turned his head to look at it, only to realize that at some point, the commander in white of Song Renjun had suddenly appeared.

"The general has been away for many days, and the breath on his body seems to be more erratic. Could it be that the general has improved in martial arts?"

The commander-in-chief in white has an air of immortality. Even though Huan Chang is now a martial artist at the peak of entering the house, when facing the commander-in-chief in white, he still has a feeling of looking up from the mountains.

"It's just a little understanding."

The commander-in-chief in white smiled slightly, and instead of being modest, he directly admitted it.

When Huan Chang heard this, his eyes could not help bursting out with a bright light, and his face also had an unconcealable look of joy.

Although Huan Chang didn't know how good the martial arts of Commander in White was, he was easily defeated by Commander in White as a junior uncle of the Shanhai Gang when he was annihilating the Shanhai Gang.

Then, the martial arts state of the commander in white is at least a half-step transformation, and he is still the top existence in the half-step transformation.

Now that the opponent's cultivation base has improved again, Huan Chang has a vague guess that the commander in white may have broken through and become a true metamorphosis warrior.

"The general has shed the mortal womb and achieved the transformation?"

Huan Chang took two steps forward and said expectantly.

As the commander of Song Ren's army, the commander in white, the higher the level of martial arts, the stronger the support around Huan Chang. Naturally, he hoped that the other party would become a warrior of the metamorphosis level.

"Shameless?"

However, when the commander in white heard Huan Chang's question, he smiled wryly and shook his head with an extremely complicated look on his face.

Seeing the behavior of the commander in white, Huan Chang couldn't help but feel a little heavy in his heart.

"My lord, I see that you are restless. I don't know what kind of problem you have encountered. Can you tell me?"

Instead of continuing the topic of his own cultivation, Commander in White instead set his sights on Huan Chang.

After pondering for a while, Huan Chang finally told the commander in white everything he thought in his heart.

Although there are many people around Huanchang today, he always feels that he has no one to talk to, and instead feels very lonely.

Whether it is Song Gong, Anyang Jun, or Ying Ying, Liu Sandao, Mo Dao, Wu Jing, Captain Qiuxu, etc., it is impossible for Huan Chang to confide in them.

And as Huan Chang's status is getting higher and higher, Huan Chang must also maintain the prestige of being a superior in front of everyone, even if he has all kinds of thoughts in his heart, he cannot tell everyone.

This feeling is not good.

Although Commander in White is nominally Huan Chang's subordinate, when facing Commander in White, Huan Chang felt very relaxed and began to let go of the burden and fetters in his heart.

"I have said long ago that my heart is in the rivers and lakes, not in the temple."

"Now, although I am honored by Your Majesty and entrusted with important responsibilities, I always feel very tired and long to go back to the days when I roamed the rivers and lakes freely."

"Brother Qingcheng is a disciple of the Songshan School, but he and I are life-and-death friends. Now that I have received a letter from Brother Qingcheng, I also want to have a drink with Brother Qingcheng."

"However, neither my current status nor the responsibilities on my shoulders allow me to go to the Songshan School to meet Brother Qingcheng at this time."

After finishing speaking, Huan Chang sighed deeply again.

"Shangqiu is the capital of the country after all, and the people in the city may have different perceptions of the new law than those in other places."

"My lord, go out more and listen to people's senses about the new law. It will also be of great benefit to the reform."

"Besides, since the lord is determined to reform, sooner or later he will have to deal with the strongest sect in the Song Dynasty, and the lord of the Songshan School will have to face it sooner or later."

"Since my lord's heart is disturbed, why don't you leave Shangqiu temporarily and visit the Songshan faction in your own name?"

"I believe that given the lord's status in the world, the Songshan faction will not embarrass the lord."

"As for the political reform, Lord Anyang and I will take care of it for the time being. It won't be too late to return to Shangqiu after the lord's heart calms down."

The commander in white has experienced too much, so he naturally understands Huan Chang's thoughts, and knows that even if Huan Chang is forced to stay in Shangqiu now, he will probably feel restless.

That being the case, let Huan Chang go out to relax, and by the way, he can also visit the people's sentiments, and test the Songshan School's attitude towards the new law.

After all, the Songshan School is the strongest sect in Song State, and any major national policy promulgated by Song State may affect the sects in the territory.

In history, due to the reforms of the vassal states, there were not a few things that were blocked by the sects in the territory.

Therefore, the attitude of the Songshan School towards the new law is very important.

Hearing the reassurance of the commander in white and the interests stated by the other party, Huan Chang's thoughts were slowly opened.

"Can I really leave temporarily?"

Huan Chang is still a little unbelievable at this time because he lives in a high position and cannot help himself.

"of course can."

The commander in white responded with a smile.

In the following three days, Huan Chang finished explaining the matter at hand, bid farewell to Duke Song, Lord Anyang and others, and immediately left Shangqiu alone, heading towards the Songshan faction.

Just as Huan Chang walked out of Shangqiu City, a black shadow rushed out like lightning, it was Xiao Hei who had disappeared for a long time.

"General, is it dangerous for Ah Chang to go to the Songshan faction alone?"

Standing beside the commander in white, Mr. Anyang asked worriedly as he looked at Huan Chang who was drifting away.

"With it, the lord will be fine."

Hearing this, Mr. Anyang looked at the black figure and remembered what happened in Shangqiu city, and he still had lingering fears.

"So, very good."
