Chapter 743 The Transformed Heroine
How could Yue Hongling be so casually caught by these words? She smiled casually and said, “I’m just a wanderer in the world. I’m not involved in the struggle for hegemony. Except for foreigners, the surname of Xia in China is still Li.” What does it have to do with me? If I stay here, it’s just for a wedding drink.”
Yue Fenghua sighed and said: “Hong Ling, if a war breaks out and all lives are destroyed, how can you ignore it?”
“If there is any attempt to injure the people, my disciple will take action.” Yue Hongling paused for a moment before saying with a half-smile, “The same applies to the Li family leaving Guandong.”
Yue Fenghua choked for a moment, and looked at each other with Wei Changming, not knowing what to say.
Unless Yue Fenghua, in his capacity as master, forces her to take sides, how can he say it out loud?
In advance, he could have thought about how to give orders as the master, and also deliberately tested whether the apprentice’s respect for the master had been lost over the years. Facts have proved that Yue Hongling still respects her teacher and her attitude is impeccable. But when she stood up, her aura was naturally overwhelmed and she instantly became the protagonist. Whether it is Wei Changming or Yue Fenghua, they are both half a head shorter subconsciously, and the rhythm is completely in her own hands.
This is a famous hero who has dominated the world for so many years. She is no longer the girl she once was. Her aura is stronger than that of the head of the family. Perhaps in her eyes, Wei Changming is just a bidder.
Just as Yue Fenghua was trying to say something else, Yue Hongling suddenly added: “Actually, my disciple is really here for some important things when he returns to his hometown this time.”
Yue Fenghua had to swallow what he wanted to say and asked kindly: “Oh? I don’t know what the important matter is. Can I help you?”
“Of course it is necessary.” Yue Hongling smiled sheepishly: “I heard that the Hu people once broke through the pass and plundered, and now there are still Hu people wreaking havoc in many places in Guanlong. I want to eliminate evil in my hometown. Returning to the safety of my hometown. But it is difficult to find the whereabouts of the Hu people alone. I think that now that the school is at its peak, I should be able to help find out.”
Wei Changming opened his mouth and closed it again. Yue Fenghua was stunned for a long time, and said with a dry smile: “This is what our knights are supposed to do! It’s just that the Hu people are powerful, and maybe you can’t catch them with your own strength. Let’s take a long-term view on this matter. Let me ask someone to find out the good news. Know yourself and know the enemy.”
Yue Hongling smiled slightly: “Master has thought carefully.”
Wei Changming smiled dryly and said: “Then Miss Yue, please have a rest, Wei Mou will go back first… By the way, Miss Yue’s return to her hometown is also a major event in Long in the near future. If our family holds a banquet to entertain Miss Yue, will Miss Yue meet?” Appreciation? ”
Yue Hongling shook her head slightly: “I’m sorry, Hongling doesn’t like to socialize, so I’m kind-hearted.”
Yue Fenghua said: “I’ll see Brother Wei off.” Then he ordered the disciples on his left and right: “I’ll take your second senior sister to the guest house to rest.”
How could the disciples understand the strange atmosphere in these conversations? They were all inexplicably excited: “Yes, we will treat senior sister well!”
“There is no need for so many people.” Yue Hongling pointed at a little girl casually and said with a smile: “This junior sister can just accompany me.”
The little girl was so happy that she jumped three feet high and pulled Yue Hongling towards the backyard: “Sister, follow me.”
Seeing the little girl’s full energy, Yue Hongling’s dull mood improved slightly, and she followed behind with a smile. When he came to the door, he turned around and saw that the figures of Yue Fenghua and Wei Changming had disappeared outside the main hall.
Yue Hongling sighed softly and lowered her voice: “I want to see my wife first.”
“Oh.” The little girl scratched her head: “Then go this way…”
In front of Houshan’s tomb, Yue Hongling paid her respects solemnly, stood up slowly, looked at the tombstone, and asked in a low voice: “Has Master’s wife been lingering on the sickbed for a long time? Why doesn’t anyone go to the rivers and lakes to talk to me about this?”
The little girl replied: “No, the illness was very sudden and he left quickly…”
“What disease?”
“Said he had a malignant sore.”
There are many types of malignant sores, and some of them are called cancer in this world. If it is this type of disease, it does not seem strange. Yue Hongling shook her head slightly. The scene after scene of the master’s performance just now flooded her mind. The intuition of a strong Yu Jing still made her feel that something was not quite right.
“Who is the person the Wei family is coming to discuss marriage with?”
The little girl looked around and lowered her voice and said, “It’s Miss Li’s family.”
Yue Hongling smiled slightly and knew it. It seemed that he just couldn’t say it in front of her, so Wei Changming couldn’t explain it in detail, but he couldn’t hide it. Once this kind of thing started to be mentioned, everyone would know it, and it would be the same to anyone she asked.
It seems that his return may not be a surprise to some people, but a shock.
At least this marriage with the Li family was seen by her. It felt weird and it didn’t sound like it was nothing. Why couldn’t the senior brother marry the Miss Li family… But if I think about it more carefully, Why did the Li family marry their daughter to Yue Hongling? She really thought that Luoxia Villa was very respectable, but it was just a naked use of her, just for her, Yue Hongling. It doesn’t matter whether the girl you marry is a direct line of the Li family. There is a high probability that she is a side branch. If not, she may be a maid.
This is different from King Cui’s marriage, because no matter how King Cui marries, he can’t affect Cui Wen? Z Wang Daoning himself wants to do; but you are married to the Li family, you have some say in the matter, and you are not thorough. A complete vassal, you can do whatever you are told…
When the battle between Guan Long and Xin Han continues, it will be difficult for her, Yue Hongling, to take sides… If not done well, the teacher can put pressure on her, Yue Hongling, to side with Guan Long. .
This is completely for Yue Hongling. If Yue Fenghua had some sense of responsibility in not wanting to embarrass his apprentice, or some respect for his apprentice’s ideas, the marriage would not be discussed. If he wanted to discuss it, he would at least find someone to discuss it with. Try to contact Yue Hongling and ask her opinion first. Not long ago, the Book of Troubled Times showed that he had killed the Black Miao King in Miao territory. His whereabouts were confirmed, so it would not be difficult to send someone to look for him.
But let alone trying to send people to search for it, I can’t say anything clearly even standing here. It seems that he also knows that the essence of this matter is to plot against her, Yue Hongling. I’m sorry to say it…
Does he take the reputation Yue Hongling gained and the closeness others gained because of Yue Hongling as his own? Do you think you can make a lot of money by marrying the Lord of Guanlong?
Yue Hongling turned her head to look at the prosperous manor and sighed softly in her heart. If it only stops here, it’s not a big deal. I won’t do anything due to the pressure from my master, so it doesn’t matter how they try to climb up the ladder. Just be afraid, once you fall deeply into it, there will be something else.
For example, the Hu people I mentioned.
What do you need to go outside to visit and know yourself and your enemy? There are Hu troops and horses stationed in Chang’an City! Are you pretending not to know?
Is this the chivalrous way you taught me since childhood?
If you insist on killing barbarians here, it will give the Guanlong clan a huge headache. They will no longer consider whether they can win over you, and will probably find a way to get you out early. And if I start killing barbarians now, what will be the result?
There is a high probability that various families will set up an ambush to cause her, Yue Hongling, to die at the hands of barbarians.
Just as he was thinking this, footsteps sounded behind him. Yue Fenghua stood behind him and sighed: “Hong Ling.”
Yue Hongling turned around and held up her hands: “Master.”
Yue Fenghua whispered: “If you want to kill Hu people, you will be in danger… and you said it in front of Wei Changming…”
Yue Hongling’s heart moved: “Master means…”
“No matter why they lured the barbarians into the pass earlier, maybe they felt that they were not strong enough and needed to borrow the help of the barbarians, or maybe they wanted to use a knife to get rid of the forces that were still loyal to Daxia in the territory, or maybe they just wanted to solve the problem. People with one heart… In short, now, the world is uncertain, and they still need to rely on strength. It is impossible to turn against the Hu people now. If you want to kill the Hu people here, it will be very difficult for them.” Yue Fenghua said in a low voice. ” In fact, if they win the world, everyone will support you if you kill Hu.”
There was a bit of disappointment in Yue Hongling’s eyes: “I know.”
There are people who develop education on equal land and serve the people wholeheartedly. Some people only think about how to get this world.
She took a deep breath: “As I said before, politics has nothing to do with me.”
“But have you ever thought about it…” Yue Fenghua held it back for a moment, and finally said: “If you insist on going your own way, you may be able to leave in style afterwards, but what about the master? How will you survive here in the future…”
Yue Hongling said: “Not to mention the past killings of the Hu people, but just saying that they have also ravaged Guanzhong this time, and countless compatriots’ souls were killed by the sword, but this is what Master is considering? It is not that there are no rebels resisting in the mountains in Guanlong today. ! Master is at the ninth level of the entrance today, is he actually afraid of this?”
Of course, what I fear is not survival, but losing my glory.
Yue Fenghua was silent for a moment and whispered: “Will you contact these thieves…these rebels?”
“What if?”
“In order to stab the Li family from behind when fighting with Xinhan?”
Yue Hongling looked into her master’s eyes, the disappointment in her eyes almost reaching the extreme.
Chang He has never thought about this, not even himself. If they really know how to contact the rebels, everyone’s thoughts will only be to fight against Hu. But for now, there are too many shadows of Guanlong gods and demons. Neither he nor Changhe will drag these ordinary warriors into the quagmire. They will not go at all. consider.
But in their thinking, this is it…
Yue Fenghua finally said: “Hong Ling, Master has never asked you for anything else… I just hope that if you see a barbarian in Chang’an this time, you must bear it and not make any moves.”
Yue Hongling looked at him intently for a while, until she saw Yue Fenghua avert his gaze, and then suddenly smiled brightly: “If I pretend to assassinate, won’t it bring trouble to the sect?”
Yue Fenghua hesitated for a moment: “That’s okay.”
Yue Hongling said: “Can you ask Master to investigate and give you a better entry point? For example, which barbarian leader is stationed here and where he is on a daily basis.”
Yue Fenghua said helplessly: “Okay, you will wait for news about me as a teacher.”
After speaking, he hurried away.
The little girl next to me watched the conversation between the master and the apprentice with admiration. In the little girl’s opinion, both the master and the apprentice were heroes.
Yue Hongling looked at her master’s back and secretly thought that this was the last test. It would be really funny if the “entry point” given by the master were to be surrounded by everyone when the time came. I guess it wouldn’t be like this, and it would probably be delayed forever.
She thought for a moment and patted her head again, feeling that it was meaningless to be mired in such private matters when she came back. She was originally meant to inquire about the situation in Chang’an for Zhao Changhe. The so-called leaders of the barbarians and where they can be assassinated are things that can be known by just squatting outside and investigating. What is the meaning of returning to the master’s gate? Now that I’m back, I have to understand some things that I can’t understand outside to be useful.
Speaking of which, I met the head of the Wei family the first time I came here. This is a very good starting point. Why not get up… What can I do if I am confused about what kind of person my master is now?
When she thought of this, Yue Hongling suddenly felt a lot more relaxed, and her body swayed and disappeared.
Wei Changming was sitting in the carriage, wandering along the way from Huashan back to Chang’an, and his mind was wandering. Yue Hongling came back and looked like he wanted to cause trouble and kill Hu here. This time it was lively… As long as Yue Hongling persisted, the final result would be that everyone would try to make Yue Hongling die here. It was impossible for her to destroy the alliance between Guanlong and Beihu.
This is a pity…
I have invested in Luoxia Villa for several years. At that time, the situation was not like it is now. There was no general direction trouble, it was just a pure emotional investment.
According to Yue Hongling’s ability to single-handedly kill the corpse puppet of the Black Miao King, he is definitely capable of being ranked in the Heavenly Ranking, but not in the Earthly Ranking. What is the concept of a heavenly ranking within a force? It is a concept that is qualified to compete for hegemony. Just look at Li Shentong and you will know.
Normally speaking, based on the current relationship between myself and Yue Hongling’s sect, if there is something difficult to solve outside, or if the family offends someone who cannot afford to offend, and entrusts Yue Hongling to do a favor, Yue Hongling will definitely not say anything. help. Being able to get a top-ranked foreign aid, this investment is really a success.
The results were good. From the beginning, there was a struggle for hegemony in the world and feuds between Hu and Han. This investment was not enough. Not to mention investment, even their master-disciple relationship is not enough in front of righteousness… The investment over the years is probably in vain, which is a pity.
But if you look at it from another angle…
Before I could finish my thoughts, my heart was filled with warning signs. Wei Changming quickly drew his sword, but was shocked to find that the sword did not obey orders and could not be pulled out.
The next moment the fragrant wind blew by, the opponent’s long sword was already on her neck, and she didn’t even see when she entered the trajectory of the carriage.
Wei Changming was extremely shocked. His so-called strength in the rankings was like a child in front of the other party: “Yue, Miss Yue…Wei did not, did not offend you…”
Yue Hongling said calmly: “Isn’t it an offense to pull the marriage between my master’s sect and the Li family and put me in a dilemma?”
“?倈瀈こっ鞫婷婷尰怕缕瀽tritium.±瀈?平 brought it up like this, and it was hard for me to refuse. According to Wei’s own ideas, it was also a marriage with my own family! To be honest, I I had already thought about it, but I was worried that it would arouse suspicion once I got married to your master, so I put it aside!”
Yue Hongling blinked her eyes, seeming to smile: “Gongsi Li is dead, and Li Boping seems to be in the middle of the list. I have forgotten the exact number. He should be inferior to you. I am very curious as to why you are still happy. Are you not interested in the business of being a king in Guanzhong?”
“Uh…” Wei Changming didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, and said cautiously: “Girl, can you put down your sword first and talk?”
Yue Hongling put away her sword and sat across from him.
Wei Changming took out the wine utensils prepared in the carriage, poured a glass of wine for Yue Hongling, and said slowly: “The battle for power is of course not just about the masters…especially when there are no masters at hand. It was simply a comparison of money, food, soldiers, horses, and power. When Li Gongsi was still alive, he relied on his prestige and skill to run an excellent business. After joining forces with the barbarians to kill several dissenters, he became the dominant one… This is normal. Anyway, it can’t be compared, it’s far behind.”
Yue Hongling said: “In this case, regardless of the masters or forces, the Li family has been completely crushed by the Hu people. Will he become a son-emperor who only listens to the Hu people?”
“It was possible.” Wei Changming smiled meaningfully: “But under the pressure of Xinhan, it is difficult for Timur to win, and it can only be a cooperative gesture. Li Boping is not a fool, either. He used to win over Buddhism to build up his momentum, and later he introduced Yuxu. With this strength, he has the confidence to speak for himself, and it is difficult for him to become an emperor.”
Yue Hongling said: “If what I heard is correct, the conflict between Buddhism and Taoism is quite powerful?”
“Yes, this is a balanced power technique that allows both Buddhism and Taoism to be used. The more they fight against each other, the more they rely on those in power. As a result, the Langya incident was reported, and Yuan Cheng was criticized by many people. We questioned whether it would be the second death that forced Yuan Cheng to leave. We never thought about this beforehand… Seeing that Yuxu wanted to dominate the family, Dayan Temple moved a new Buddha from nowhere. Now it seems to be rebalancing.”
Yue Hongling thought for a while: “The Li family is walking a tightrope.”
“There is no way. The Four Symbols Sect in Xinhan is the established state religion. Of course, others can only fight for it among other forces. Whether the Li family walks the tightrope or not, this situation will happen sooner or later.” Wei Changming took a long sip of wine. , pointed out: “Of course, the hidden dangers are huge. After all, the Li family really doesn’t have a strong person. Once they can’t grasp the balance, and which family becomes dominant, they may be sidelined. And it may also anger which party, no matter Play with him. But for now, no matter how different the various forces in Chang’an are, they are unanimous in facing Xinhan, and their overall strength is really not weaker than Xinhan or even stronger.”
Yue Hongling said: “There is no need to always mention Xinhan to me, I am not a Xinhan official.”
Wei Changming smiled warmly: “Yes, a girl can become a powerful force by herself.”
This is the tacit understanding that the two parties have had for so long. Yue Hongling asked, “Your Excellency, you are not interested in this thousand-mile Guanzhong and Wangba career?” Of course, it is impossible that no one is not interested, but the situation is so complicated that no one dares to make mistakes easily. What is certain is that once the Li family loses control, there may be a pack of wolves around to bite them, and one of the wolves is Wei Changming.
It’s just that Wei Changming is obviously not willing to hook up with Xinhan.
The attitude of suppressing aristocratic families and promoting common people is too obvious. This is a huge attraction in the eyes of the people at the bottom, but it is not necessarily beneficial to the current situation of hegemony. The aristocratic families are resistant and many things cannot be done. Assuming that Xinhan is a re-employed family, he can now directly try to instigate Wei Changming. Unfortunately, Wei Changming is unlikely to be willing to learn Cui Wen’s self-disciplined martial arts, so he keeps testing the relationship between Yue Hongling and Xinhan.
If it were Yue Hongling two years ago, she really wouldn’t understand these subtexts. But now, following Zhao Changhe these days, her horizons are no longer limited to the world, and her thinking on these matters has broadened a lot.
She also leaned on the backrest of the carriage and sipped her wine leisurely, and after a long while she suddenly said: “I have a good relationship with Changhe, but we are not involved in a power struggle. Even if we help Changhe, Xia Chichi and I are not on the same side. Can you understand this? ”
Wei Changming blinked and said with a smile: “I understand.”
As for the dispute between the East and West Palaces… the Empress of the West Palace must also have her own power.
Yue Hongling said: “In fact, all I care about is the Hu people. Whoever colludes with the Hu people will be the one I oppose. I do not represent Xinhan in contacting you, I only represent myself – your investment in Luoxia Villa is nothing more than For my sake, Yue Hongling, I can put my words here. As long as you can provide help in the fight against Hu, no matter how the situation changes in the future, I can personally become a friend of the Wei family.”
After saying this, he disappeared directly.
Wei Changming looked out the window at the light snow, his expression uncertain.
If we talk about investment, with Yue Hongling, it is comparable to the previous investment in Luoxia Villa for several years. What we need is Yue Hongling, otherwise what is Yue Fenghua?
Whether it is Yue Hongling’s level in the Tianban, or the power of Zhao Changhe behind her… Even if Xinhan is not friendly to the aristocratic family, it is still a way out. If it goes wrong, in this thousands of miles of Guanzhong, the surname may not be Wei.
This investment is worth a fortune.
But there are prerequisites for investment… Hu people… Hu people. It just so happened that I really had nothing to do with the Hu people, but the Li family did.
