Taiping Inn

After experiencing this ups and downs, Li Xuandu and Qin Su continued to take a boat from Jingzhou to Xiaozhou. The next day at dawn, Li Xuandu received a letter from Li Rushi's flying sword, and Li Rushi was in it. He talked about his experiences and ideas in recent days, and initially determined several candidates to ask Li Xuandu for his opinions.

Li Xuan handed the letter to Qin Su. After reading it roughly, Qin Su asked, "How do you want to answer him?"

Li Xuandu took the letter from Qin Su, picked up the pen and wrote four words on it: "Do your own thing." Then he sent the letter from Feijian back as it was.

Qin Su couldn't help but ask curiously: "Aren't you the shopkeeper? Why are you so hasty?"

Li Xuandu replied: "Although I am the shopkeeper, I am not the emperor, and I don't need to make arbitrary decisions in everything. Besides, even the emperor must discuss the country with civil and military officials. As the saying goes, no doubt about employment, no doubt about people. No, since I have entrusted this matter to Li Rushi, I will no longer interfere. I must not change everything every day. If I do it right, the credit will be his. If I do it wrong, I will ask him."

Qin Su was a little reluctant to believe it, "It's that simple?"

Li Xuan didn't want to make a long speech, but Qin Su bumped into him, so he couldn't blame him for being a teacher, so Li Xuan cleared his throat and said, "Of course it's not that simple. There is a priority among the six of us. There is no difference between high and low. In advance, six people can discuss it together, but once you start doing things, one person must have the power to control the overall situation. Others must follow the orders to prevent orders from being issued and some people I think it should go east, and some people think it should go west, which is contradictory. The person in charge is usually me, the shopkeeper, and of course you can also be your boss, or someone else, depending on the situation. Don't take it seriously, You may have to take charge of the Qin family in the future, and these things will be used sooner or later."

Qin Su nodded thoughtfully.

Li Xuandu continued: "Although I have different ideas from my master, it does not prevent him from teaching me many truths. He once said that when there is a critical moment, he needs to delegate power appropriately and collect power when there is no peace."

Qin Su thought for a while and asked, "What do you mean specifically?"

Li Xuandu said: "It's actually very simple. If you reach a critical moment, you still want to take back all the powers and fight against external enemies after you settle the internal situation. The enemy will not wait for you. It is often because of the external troubles that have not been resolved, and there are internal troubles and internal troubles. Next, the internal struggle was in a mess, and eventually everyone betrayed their relatives. Let’s take a simplest example, look at the Great Jin and the Jin Hordes. At that time, the old Khan of the Jin Hordes passed away, and the Eight Kings each had their own military territory, and no one could be the only one The dominant kings, and the prestige of the new Khan was not enough to suppress the Eight Kings. At this time, the new Khan created an Eight Kings to discuss politics, and the Eight Kings were ranked together to maintain the original state, and the army of the Golden Tent continued to move south. In contrast, the Great Jin Dynasty was also the emperor's new demise. Soon, at this time, all officials elected a prince for the throne. The civil and military colluded with each other, and several groups of people fought hard. Everyone wanted to win the winner. There were only hundreds of thousands of troops, but they could not defend the enemy. The final result was gold. The Horde defeated the Great Jin Dynasty. "

Qin Su is not a lady from the boudoir who knows nothing. At this time, he heard Li Xuan point out and understood: "After you say this, this is the truth. Every time you read history books, every time you start a dynasty and establish a country. The difference between the emperor and the general is not so clear. Everything is not arbitrary. It is often a collegial discussion, the counselors give advice, and the emperor humbly accepts advice. When it comes to the most difficult time, what is the list of recruiting talents, personally sucking thick sores for soldiers All things can be done. After the world is peaceful, the emperor will hold the throne firmly, and the matter of reducing the vassal states, killing heroes, and releasing military power will come."

Li Xuandu smiled and said, "That's the reason. I set up Taiping Inn to do something. The more I am at the moment, I have to delegate power appropriately. The key is to make things happen, not me. What a great authority. Yun He still held the idea of ​​the Qingwei Sect, putting me as the main one and putting authority as the most important. There is nothing wrong with it, it is just a bit out of place."

Qin Su reached out and tapped Li Xuandu’s forehead gently, and smiled and said, “What a Xuan’er, no wonder some people say you are a righteous person.”

Li Xuandu grabbed Qin Su's hand: "It's neither big nor small. I was Brother Xuan just now, but now I've become Xuan'er again."

Qin Su pulled back his hand: "I'm happy, what do you think of my name? By the way, what does the booklet Bai Xiushang wrote for you?"

Li Xuan knew that Qin Su was worried about Cihang Sect, especially when he was still very hostile to Bai Xiushang, he did not hide it. He took out the thin booklet from his sleeve and handed it to Qin Su's hand, and said, " If what I guessed correctly, this should be part of the formula of the "Cihang Pudu Sword Classic". Bai Xiushang knew that I had changed from Su Yunying's hand to part of the formula of the "Cihang Pudu Sword Classic" with the "Sitting and Forgetful Zen" to the formula of the "Cihang Pudu Sword Classic" from Su Yunying's hand. , At this time, she sent me another copy, which was considered to be my favorite. Although she knew that the women of Cihang Sect had a lot of utilitarianism, it has to be said that these women are very good at judging other people's thoughts and can always hit it. Your heart makes you feel good about them.”

Qin Su, who was flipping through the booklet, immediately snorted.

Li Xuan knew that he had made a mistake and could only cover up with a light cough.

Qin Su glanced at him and said, "Just like men can see which men are disciples and unfaithful people at first sight, women can also see which women are scheming women who like to set up arches."

Li Xuandu said, "Where is Su Yunxian, she is your 'good sister'."

Qin Su glared at him: "How are you and Yan Feiqing? What are you and Su Yunying?"

Li Xuandu smiled and said, "Okay, then our two families will be good friends from now on."

Qin Su rolled her eyes at him and said, "Who is your family?" Li Xuandu smiled and asked, "Then who do you want to be your family?"

Qin Su was choked and blushed. After a long while, she said, "Of course I am my father's family, and we are all Qin's family."

Li Xuandu laughed, "My daughter will get married sooner or later. Do you want to be an old maid who will never get married?"

"You just talk nonsense all day long, you lecher, you bad guy, I won't pay attention to you." Qin Su knew that she couldn't argue with him, so she snorted, threw the booklet back to him, and left the cabin alone.

Li Xuandu knew that she was shy, so it was not good to follow her at this time, so he stayed in the cabin and flipped open the booklet that Bai Xiushang gave him. What caught his eye was a beautiful handwriting, and he knew it was a woman's handwriting at first sight. Li Xuandu knew that there were only a few original copies of the secret manuals of the major sects, and the others were handwritten copies. The difference between the two was that the originals were made of special materials and were not easily destroyed. They also had many strange uses, such as preventing people with insufficient realm from viewing them, or allowing people to be trapped in an illusion to help them understand the profound meaning of the manuals. For example, the stone cave atlas of the "Thirteen Swords of Taiyin" was a living sword manual, with the sword-wielding people in the stone carvings demonstrating the swordsmanship by themselves, circulating endlessly. However, if people with insufficient realms forcibly viewed the sword manual, they would be possessed by it, their minds would be taken away, and they would become sword slaves. The sword manual that Li Xuandu learned was a copy of the rubbing, which was naturally not as mysterious as the original. However, at his level, he no longer had to be bound by the difference between the original and the copy, and could even take only the key parts like learning the "Great Treasure Bottle Seal". Going a step further, he could reversely deduce the entire manual through part of the manual.

After reaching this level, they are no longer afraid of people missing one or two words in the secret book. What they want is the general idea of ​​this method, and then they can gradually improve it, and even make some changes suitable for themselves on the basis of the original method, so Li Xuandu is not afraid of Bai Xiushang doing anything.

Among the three major sword techniques in the world, the "Thirteen Swords of Taiyin" has the smallest volume, with only thirteen diagrams, the "Thirty-six Swords of Beidou" is in the middle, and the "Cihang Pudu Sword Canon" has the largest volume, with hundreds of thousands of words. Even if Li Xuandu learns these two parts in succession, he can only get one-tenth of the "Cihang Pudu Sword Canon" at most. It is rumored that when the great Tianshi Zhang Jingxiu borrowed the "Cihang Pudu Sword Canon" that year, he only read about 100,000 words, less than half.

However, no matter how small a mosquito is, it is still meat. Li Xuandu still hopes that he can one day gather the three major sword techniques in one body, which is not in vain for practicing swords for many years.

Thinking of this, Li Xuandu began to read the text in the booklet silently, and found that in addition to some mental formulas, this booklet also recorded the "Xuantian Sword Finger" that Bai Xiushang had used. This made Li Xuandu somewhat pleasantly surprised. Although he used a sword, he was also open to this kind of boxing and kicking skills. If he could master this method, when fighting against others, it might have an unexpected effect, just like Bai Xiushang holding his "White Bone Flowing Light" with two fingers.
