The Zou Mansion looks nothing different from the outside today, but it is more lively inside than during the Chinese New Year.

Many famous chefs in Youzhou City who specialize in banquets were secretly invited to the mansion.

The open space has long been supported for sunshine and wind shelter.

The guardian monks from Luoyang, Chang'an, the group of children from Youzhou, and the crowds of people in Yinshan were all invited to the mansion.

These guardians all eat a lot.

Large pots of vegetables were served on the table like running water, and soon the CD was left, making the chefs' eyes wide open.

People who don’t know think that Mrs. Zou will do her birthday or do some ritual today.

But everyone in the Zou Mansion knew that Mrs. Zou was going to part with her baby and great-grandson again.

"Great grandma, don't you go to Chang'an with me?"

Zhou Lu'er asked a question with a little frown while picking up food for Mrs. Zou.

Mrs. Zou smiled so hard that her eyes narrowed into a slit, "Good grandson, do you want your grandmother to go with her?"

Zhou Lu'er said seriously, "Of course I want to think that if I don't go, I will miss my grandma."

Mrs. Zou smiled and said, "You are so old, you can't rush the road like you young people. You can go first, I'll take your time and come comfortably."

Zhou Lu'er said happily: "Really?"

Mrs. Zou said seriously: "How could the grandma lie to you?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the seat was shocked.

Even the guardians who ate and drank were shocked.

Especially the Zou family members who were there to accompany him were so shocked that they could not speak.

Mrs. Zou's words didn't seem like a joke.

However, she is too old.

Youzhou is concerned about returning to its roots. Even if you go outside and have a great foundation, you will find a way to return to Youzhou when you get old.

No one wants to think about the unlucky aspect, but Mrs. Zou’s age decided to go to Chang’an, which means she must be prepared to die in a foreign land.

It turns out that today's banquet was not to say goodbye to Zhou Lu'er, but to say goodbye to everyone.

"Hey! Xu Tuibei!"

Pei Yunqi suddenly saw an acquaintance.

Xu Tuibei and Hua Cangming came together.

Xu Tuibei didn't look like a pile of rotten meat at this time. He saluted Pei Yunqi seriously, but secretly threw a powerful look at Gu Shiwu.

"Why did you lose weight?"

Pei Yunqi was a little disappointed when he saw Xu Tui's serious look.

She still admired the fat man who was unruly sitting by the fire and eating rat meat.

"I lost half my life, how can I not lose weight?"

Xu Tuibei smiled, "I have had a few basins of blood, but I eat well in Youzhou and will be able to get fat soon."

Pei Yunqi was a little satisfied, "That's better than Heishava when he was."

"It can still be used to bleed, right?" Xu Tuibei sat beside Gu Liubai and started eating.

Gu Liubai smiled slightly, "What, are you still used to it here?"

"What else can I say?" Xu Tuibei pointed at Hua Cangming, who was going to Mrs. Zou to pay his respects. "Even the people who often have to deal with are their own people. The Hua family is not destroyed. I probably live more comfortably here than anyone else."

"I said Fatty Xu, I'll allow you to scold me behind my back a few times." Pei Yunqi picked up the wine pot on the table and poured a bowl of wine for Xu Tui.

Xu Tui was stunned, "If you don't dislike me, I'll lick your feet. I can't thank you for not thanking you, so why would I scold you?"

"You still have the habit of licking your feet? I don't have this hobby." Pei Yunqi smiled, "You have made more mistakes in this job, but I have worked hard on this matter because of this. Now the emperor probably doesn't feel good about us. If there is any supervisory envoy above, you can pick a few words to scold me and put your position in the right way. I guess they won't make things difficult for you. Don't worry, how ugly your scolding is, I won't be angry even if it comes to my ears."

"Hey!" Xu Tuibei immediately looked at her with admiration, "You are okay with your style, and your brain is not comparable to me, a stupid person. No wonder Gu Shiwu likes you."

Pei Yunqi ignored the first two sentences of him directly. She only heard no wonder Gu Shiwu liked you. She was immediately overjoyed and the more she looked at Xu Tui's face, the more she liked her eyes.

"Come on, eat meat! Eat it stronger." Xu Tuibei looked at Pei Yunqiu and became more and more pleasing to him.

After all, there are so many clans in the world, he has never seen anyone who is as hard as Pei Yunqiu and Gu Shiwu.

I finally survived from the Black Shawar together, so there is no need to say much about this friendship.

“By the way.”

Thinking of Heishawa, Xu Tuibei suddenly thought of something. He lowered his voice and said, "Miss Second Miss, the old brothers in Heishawa have been blessed by the group of people in Yinshan. They have also lived a lot. Four or five of them have achieved some military merits. They should have to go back to Chang'an and Luoyang. They must not be able to make any official career. They probably only get some land after returning, but I think these people are wasted just going back to farm. If you think these people are of some use, I will talk to them?"

Pei Yunqi's eyes lit up immediately, "What else can I say? You can give me a list later. Don't ask Li Xizhi to find them. But you can talk to them first, don't they are unwilling to serve me then."

"Okay!" Xu Tuibei smiled and said, "But second lady, don't worry, others are unwilling to serve you. Just because you are fighting in and out of Heishawa, how can they not be willing to obey your orders?"

Pei Yunqi was very satisfied. Gu Liubai smiled slightly, looked at Xu Tui and said, "Is there enough people here?"

"Enough." Xu Tuibei said calmly: "Didn't you ask me to find the people from Shanyin Guard before? At least I found a few good ones, some older ones, and they didn't want to come out, but their nephews were also well trained. There were also the fifth prince who recommended An Zhilu to do things very well. He also had a group of people under him, all waiting to find excuses to slowly become military citizen. I don't have too many people on hand at this time. This is not what Miss Pei Er just reminded me, maybe there are many Shangguans staring at me, I will live a good life first and enjoy a happy life. After a year or two, I will slowly copy some of the mountains in Youzhou with Hua Cangming."

"You are indeed capable." Pei Yunqi knew that this fat man would definitely slowly make up for the bandits next.

There are so many bandits in Youzhou, so this fat man probably has something to play with.

"Don't you still have to leave some money for me?" Xu Tuibei grinned again, looking at Gu Liubai and Pei Yunqi meaningfully, "I have to find a way to help you settle it."

Pei Yunqi's eyes flashed violently. After hearing these two sentences, she knew that the mysterious armor that Gu Liubai had hidden was to be left for Xu Tui's back.

This is a serious crime of beheading.

This is really a life-long friendship.

"It doesn't seem to be useful for this little property." She glanced at Xu Tuibei and whispered, "The risk is quite high."

The cynical look on Xu Tuibei's face suddenly decreased. He whispered: "When some areas of the border army are tight, there are so many practitioners who have rushed over with this possession, and they can still use it."

Pei Yunqi fell silent.

What she was thinking about was to rebel with her own troops.

But even if Xu Tuibei was wronged and suffered for many years, he still thought about guarding the national gates and fighting against foreign enemies.

...

"What, the sword was stolen?"

Luoyang, on the banks of the Luo River, Bai Yousi had just seen a friend leave by boat when he heard a message that was unbelievable to him.

Bai Yousi, dressed in white clothes, had a little white face.

He is the junior brother of Xiao Zhenwei, the leader of Canglang Sword Sect.

Among all the true disciples of Canglang Sword Sect in Xiao Zhenwei's generation, except for Xiao Zhenwei and Guo Beixi of that year, he has the highest talent.

However, Xiao Zhenwei has handed over some sect things to him over the years, and these sect things have still cost him a lot of his thoughts. So after Xiao Zhenwei entered the eighth grade, he failed to catch up quickly. To this day, he has not yet successfully realized the eighth grade magical powers.

Everyone has their own circumstances.

Bai Yousi was not anxious either.

Not that kind of genius, it is useless to stand in that position too early.

This kind of slowness is good. He realized that he should have entered the eighth grade naturally when he was 47 or 8 years old.

It has a reputation that should be, and it is not young anymore, and it will not stand on the cusp of the storm.

Seek peace in this life.

But now it's unstable.

"You have been dead for so many years, why are you still in a state of dissipation?"

Bai Yousi took a deep breath, and the cold air flowed in his chest, and murderous intent rose in his heart.

"Why do you have to overcome your fate that you cannot fight against?"

"Why do you have to cause trouble for yourself, and why do you have to cause trouble for your own sect?"

"Why should I pass on the secret of Canglang Sword Sect to that young man? Do you think this young man can get rid of the fate that you can't even get rid of? "

...

When Zou Mansion was hosting guests, Sewangguan in Youzhou City was also greeting guests.

Taoist temples are often superior to those of the Buddhist temples in terms of diet and health preservation.

Sitting and forgetting to observe the word "sitting and forgetting".

The layout of the quiet room, the scenery outside the window, and even the decoration of the meals, and the quiet and cold fragrance emitted by the lit line fragrance are easy for people to forget the passage of time.

Outside the window is a continuous distant mountain.

The big rivers in Luoyang are surging, flowing fiercely in Bai Yousi's heart, and these distant mountains are also crushed like an unpredictable world in Qingxuzi's gaze.

Facing opposite him was Gao Ji'an wearing a purple Taoist robe.

Gao Ji'an belongs to the Foreign Region Party. Although he is wearing a purple Taoist robe, he is of the same generation as him in a yellow robe.

But he still held the rituals of the younger generation to the Lord of the Temple of the Ward and Forget Temple, who was much older than him, and was very respectful to him. "Before, a Taoist came to Nanjiguan, who was a monk of the Fallen Temple. Nanjiguan provided the amount he needed, but we checked and found that Nanjiguan belongs to your jurisdiction."

Qingxuzi smiled bitterly and said, "After the incident in Nanjiguan, I naturally paid attention to it. I just found out that no matter Nanjiguan or other Taoist temples in the city, as long as they have true Taoist traditions, they will provide the cost of that person."

Gao Jian was slightly stunned and said, "Why?"

Qingxuzi said seriously: "This person chanted the Sutra of offering sacrifices to the immortals and was able to make the seal of immortals. Since the beginning of the establishment of the Taoist temple, all parties have precepts. They hold these two and treat them with the etiquette of visiting the ancestral court. There is no need to wear Taoist robe, no need to pay attention to rules, and no need to go to the palace to do homework."

Gao Ji'an was a little surprised, and he honestly said, "We Goguryeo Taoist Temple does not seem to have such rules."

Qingxuzi took a deep breath and slowly exhaled. After a moment, he said seriously: "This rule... has existed since the Great Sui Dynasty. As long as the Taoist tradition passed down from the Great Sui Dynasty, there are such rules."

...

"No problem was found?"

Han Yixuan rubbed his painful forehead and looked at his subordinate standing in front of him with some confusion.

The Jitai Pavilion monk in front of him who replaced Gao Yingjie's position also seemed to have inherited Gao Yingjie's calmness. Facing Han Yixuan's questions, he just replied calmly: "It's not only Zheng Yu, the owner of Yongning Cultivation Institute, but also the owners of the other two Cultivation Institute have also had very clean business over the years. Besides Zheng Yu, the owners of the other two Cultivation Institute have not participated in the battle of protecting the earth and water. They were all retreated from the border army."

Han Yixuan frowned deeply.

A defeated general who was cut off from all fame and fortune did not receive special attention from any military executives, nor did he collude with any forces in the city, nor did he participate in shameful activities like the gangsters, but he became the owner of Yongning Xiushou.

Even most of the money he earned was spent in Youzhou City.

This person is too clean.

But the cleaner it was to the point where it was outrageous, Han Yixuan felt that there must be something wrong with this person.

"This man takes it as a long-term investigation, and then checks it deeper to see if he can find out where the money he got when he settled the Yongning Xiushou."

Han Yixuan pondered for a moment, took a deep breath, "The most important thing at the moment is to track down the clue provided by the fifth prince."

"Affect the order."

The subordinate in front of him gave a serious salute.

A natal Gu of the Depraved View will be sent to Yumen Pass.

No matter how this matter seems to be likely to connect with foreign enemies, it is much more important than those old and dirty things.

...

The banquet at Zou Mansion was just half over and there were still a few dishes before serving. Chen Tu walked over with his head down and whispered a few words in Gu Liubai's ear.

Gu Liubai nodded.

Then, Pei Yunqiu saw Yin Shiniang and Lan Yufeng standing up quietly and walked out.

Pei Yunqi suddenly felt a little numb. She knew something must have happened.

"What's wrong?"

She pulled Gu Liubai's corner of her clothes under the table.
