Traveling through the divine eagle: the first sword of Quanzhen

Chapter 179 The world is criss-crossed, who can comprehend it? World affairs are like chess
At night, Su Yuan snuggled up to her husband's side. She hadn't hugged her husband like this for a long time.

And Li Qingwei has grown a lot in the past few months.Grow taller and stronger.Her body and mind were comforted.

Although her husband has matured a bit, Su Yuan still can't figure out his thoughts.I always feel that his mind is very dignified.

Su Yuan wanted to ask, but she didn't know where to start.

The great funeral in the Hou Mansion lasted for seven consecutive days.Until the envoys of Wokuotai Khan came from Dadu to collect Dadarhan's coffin and return to the grassland for burial.

And Wo Kuotai spoke highly of Li Qingwei's behavior.Because the Mongolian spies have sent the fake news released by Huang Rong to Dadu.

The intelligence sent back by Yelu Chucai and Li Qinglong's memorial confirmed each other, exactly the same.

So he asked Wo Kuotai to reward the Li family for their "loyalty".

However, the title of the Li family is already the highest among the Han people, and the highest Han landlord is the Marquis, which is beyond seal.

Therefore, only some material rewards can be rewarded, including some medicinal materials for body repair.There are also some gold, silver and jewelry, and the biggest reward is naturally the Han blood horse.

Because the Mongols have a superstitious belief that only true heroes can handle horses well.But Dadar Khan's Han blood horse is also the most tempered among the tribute horses.

And Li Qinglong, who undertook Dadar Khan's funeral, was also rewarded, increasing his food town by [-] households.

This day Li Qingwei was practicing sword in the Longqin Residence, and Su Yuan was sitting in the pavilion playing the melody. Although the family had a good life, Li Qingwei was getting impatient.

Su Yuan looked at her husband who was practicing sword. His expression at this time was exactly the same as before he left home that day.

Su Yuan pressed the Yaoqin in front of her, and the sound of the piano stopped abruptly.

Hearing the end of his wife's piano sound, Li Qingwei stopped and stood still, and asked, "My lady, what's the matter?"

Su Yuan looked at Li Qingwei who was in the courtyard and replied: "My husband doesn't want to practice sword, so there is no need to play it for my wife. What's wrong with you, my husband? Why since you returned home, my wife always feels that you are restless."

Li Qing wiped the sweat from his forehead slightly, and put the Longquan sword back into the scabbard.

He sat beside his wife, and said, "Didn't you think it was so obvious?"

Su Yuan gently lifted the copper pot on the stove and poured a cup of hot tea for her husband.

Su Yuan said: "This is natural. Although we have not been together for a long time as a wife, but you and I are married couples, I can naturally detect the strangeness of my husband. Has your husband felt the desire to leave again?"

Li Qingwei took a sip of warm tea, and said: "Sure enough, nothing can be hidden from my lady's eyes. Yes, I'm about to go on a long journey, and this time I want to go to the Western Regions. A friend of mine suffered a serious leg injury and needs help. Only the Black Jade Ointment, the panacea of ​​the Western Regions, can restore it."

Su Yuan asked at this time: "Then why doesn't your husband leave?"

Li Qingwei said: "This is our first reunion year, and I plan to leave after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. But this trip is dangerous, and I don't know when I will be able to return. On the one hand, it is the friendship of friends, and on the other hand, it is the love of husband and wife. It’s hard for people to choose.”

Su Yuan shook her head and said, "My husband has become less frank now."

Li Qingwei looked at his wife, and he asked, "Oh? Why am I not being frank?"

Su Yuan touched Li Qingwei's face, and she said, "Your husband can do whatever you want. The family should not be a burden to your husband."

As she spoke, she touched Li Qingwei's chest. Li Qingwei's young and strong heart was throbbing.

Su Yuan said: "As a wife, I can tell that my husband has ambitions here. If there is, then my husband can do what you want."

Li Qingwei embraced Su Yuan into his arms, he said: "If you have a wife like this, what can you ask for?"

The 15th day of the first lunar month is the Lantern Festival. This is the moment when Li Qingwei's family is truly reunited. There are no noisy trivial matters, and no orders from the frontier.

The most grand event in Luoyang City is the Lantern Festival. Li Qingwei took his wife and brother-in-law to the Luoshui River to enjoy the lanterns.

The same is true for Zhao Ke who is far away in Lin'an. Zhao Ke and Zhao Jue are swimming on the West Lake in a small boat.

"Zhilan, have you finished writing your Kongming Lantern?" Zhao Ke said to Zhao Jue after writing his own Kongming Lantern.

Although Zhou Zhilan changed her name to Zhao Jue, she did not change the name Zhilan no matter what, because it was chosen by Li Qingwei.

So she made the second best choice, and Zhilan became her character.Although Cheng-Zhu Neo-Confucianism prevails, women's status is not high, and most of the women in the Song Dynasty don't take their names, but now Zhao Jue is the righteous daughter of the loyal king, and now she is the princess, and she is considered half of the royal family. It is different from the common people.

Zhao Jue slowly lit the Kongming Lantern he had written.The two sisters let go slowly.

"Brother, can you see our lantern?" Zhao Jue asked looking at the Kongming Lantern floating into the distance.

Zhao Ke replied: "Whether Qingwei can see it or not, my sister doesn't know very well, but he can definitely feel our intentions."

"When will brother come back next time?" Zhao Jue continued to ask.

"I don't know, he has his own things to do, and he does everything for us." There was a trace of sadness on Zhao Ke's beautiful face.

She looked at Zhao Jue beside her, squatted down and hugged her.

She got the truth from the old uncle. The loyal king accepted Zhou Zhilan as his adopted daughter, even changed his surname and gave him a name, and entered it in the family tree.

All this is on purpose, because Song Meng's new peace talks have already begun.

The bottom line of the Song Dynasty is to retain half of the existing country of the Song Dynasty, and there are various conditions for the peace talks, and the ministers of the DPRK and China do not rule out the possibility of making peace.

After that, no matter whether the Mongols wanted money, people, or vassals, it was easy to discuss.

Even civil and military officials have suggested that Song Lizong should go to the emperor and become king.

King Rong was reluctant to part with his own granddaughter, and King Zhong was also reluctant to part with his own daughter.

So who in the entire royal family is the most suitable for marriage?Naturally, it was Zhou Zhilan who was named princess and given her surname.

If the peace talks are successful, then she will replace Zhao Ke in the identity of Zhao Jue to make a marriage.Although there was no precedent for making peace with foreign countries before the Song Dynasty, but now the country of the Song Dynasty is already in a precarious state, and they don't care about it so much.

Zhao Ke felt sorry for her. The wealth and honor she enjoyed might be exchanged for her future life.

Whether it is her, Zhao Ke, or Zhao Jue, they are just bargaining chips, a gift, and a pawn.

So Zhao Ke didn't keep Li Qingwei back that day, because what Li Qingwei said was right.

Just a few days before Li Qingwei returned to Lin'an, when he was teaching Zhao Jue to study, Zhao Ke accidentally read "Six Kingdoms" by Su Xun, the late scholar of the dynasty.

One sentence among them shook her heart like a bolt from the blue.

"Today cut five cities, tomorrow cut ten cities, and then have to sleep overnight. Starting to look at the four realms, and the Qin army is coming. However, the land of the princes is limited, and the desire to tyranny the Qin is insatiable. urgent."

The territory of the Mongol Empire is as old as ever, and they are far more greedy than the Tyrant Qin. The Song Dynasty may no longer be able to maintain the status quo like serving the Jin people.

All Da Song can do now is to defend his country with force, and if Li Qingwei can really open up a new situation in the chessboard of the world, then the fate of all of them will be changed!
And she also believed that Li Qingwei would be the one to play chess.
