Chapter 7 Intrigue
Thinking back to back then, the swords and iron horses were so powerful that they were as powerful as tigers.

Yang Shen said that this song "Yongyule" is the first in Jiaxuan's lyrics.

The next day was a very busy day. First, I went to Bixiuxin’s grave to weed and fill the soil. Shi Qingxuan led Axue to kneel down for a long time. Although Axue didn’t know what was going on, she did not raise any objections. It can be seen that Shi Qingxuan’s affinity is still very strong, and then it was Yueshan.
Standing in front of Yueshan’s tomb, I sighed. The heroic figures back then have now returned to the dust, and the top masters in the world cannot escape the pursuit of time. What’s the point of being busy for half a lifetime even if you stand at the highest point to overlook all living beings? It’s better to spend the rest of your life with your beloved.
I was a little excited for a moment and wanted to escape from these right and wrong.
When Sun Simiao was helping Axue check his physical condition, I sat by the stream to bask in the sun. The mountain was indeed much colder. The warm sun in early winter shone on his body, making people lazy. The stream flowed happily, and the swimming fish jumped in it. It was like a landscape painting.
"You really know how to enjoy it." A gentle voice came, and Shi Qingxuan walked over with a bamboo chair and sat down next to me.
This kind of bamboo chair should have been made later. Sun Simiao and I were both strong people in thought and shorts in action. They were very good at speaking, and their hands-on ability was extremely poor. This chair that could sit and lie down should be made by Lu Miaozi. Not only was the fine workmanship, it also came with a waist massage device, which was clever mechanical transmission principle. As long as the mechanism was turned, you could move up and down the waist. Men all had a deep understanding of this.
Today, Shi Qingxuan took off her veil and revealed her beautiful face. She wore a blue print women's clothing and sat casually, her eyes narrowed slightly. Facing the empty valley, she naturally had a graceful and charming charm.
"Life is just a few decades. If you are busy all the time, what else can you leave in the end?" I sighed.
This is the future era. The fast-paced life makes people breathless. Everyone is like a tight clockwork. There is no time to think about the meaning of such a life. In an impetuous society, every day, they receive overwhelming advertisements and soap operas. How long has it been since I seriously read a book that can make people think about?
"Is this an excuse to be lazy?" Shi Qingxuan asked back.
"This is a meaningful life." I corrected. I was a little surprised at the contrast between her and yesterday. I wouldn't have to chat with me!
"What are your plans in the future?" Shi Qingxuan asked casually.
"Oh, stay here for two days and then go back to Lingnan. I opened a bun shop there, with a special chef in the Central Plains in charge. It is absolutely good and cheap, and it is always easy to be honest." I introduced.
"You go back alone, my sister wants to stay here." Shi Qingxuan opened her eyes and said seriously, "My mother hopes that our sisters will reunite before her death. Now it can be regarded as fulfilling her mother's wish."
"Well, this is good. Let Axue stay here for some time. You can gather together. I will come to pick her up during the Chinese New Year." I agreed, "You can also go to Lingnan with us to celebrate the Chinese New Year."
"Don't pretend to be stupid. I want my sister to live here all the time. Of course, you can come to see her at any time." Shi Qingxuan raised her voice and said firmly, "I asked clearly yesterday. You have not done anything to my sister, otherwise you wouldn't sit here safely."
I finally knew why this girl was targeting me. She wanted to compete with me for A Xue's custody. From a legal perspective, Shi Qingxuan and A Xue are related by blood. If I sued, I would definitely not win. She also had Bi Xiuxin's instructions before her death. This is a great thing. I don't take any legal principles or favors. However, this place was in ancient times, and there were so many rules and regulations.
"We must respect the opinions of the parties involved. Have you asked A Xue who she is willing to be with?" I said calmly.
"That she is not really her, she is just one of her subordinate personalities. Uncle Sun told me." Shi Qingxuan retorted, "If you think this will allow my sister to stay by your side, then you will still lose her after she recovers."
"If it's true Shi Feixuan..." I hesitated.
This assumption has always been lingering in my heart. Eighteen years ago, Shi Feixuan resolutely hid in her subconscious mind. If she had come out as the master's personality, how would she choose?
Both of us fell into silence for a moment.
"You're going to offer a price?" After a while, Shi Qingxuan said slowly.
"Uh..." I looked at her in confusion.
"This is the classics of "Immortal Seal" and "The Magical Body Technique". As long as you let my sister stay in the valley, these two martial arts secrets that people in the world are coveted by, you will own." Shi Qingxuan took out a small cloth bag and said solemnly.
"Forget it, don't fool people with this. When Shi Zhixuan and Axue were studying "The Immortal Seal", I was listening. Even this name was given by me." I said indifferently, "Besides, once I own these two secret books, it would be a disaster. Just a shadow assassin will make me feel at ease."
This girl is too cunning. This is obviously a plan to get rid of Jiangdong. Not to mention that I don’t care about the secrets of martial arts, I guess the news will be flying the next day.
"I forgot the identity of the Evil Emperor, and my vision of martial arts is naturally very high." Shi Qingxuan said relievedly, "This is a note of 2,000 taels of silver circulated in the Bashu area. It can be fulfilled in the trading companies under the Bashuchuan Gang. Bashu and Lingnan have a lot of connections, so I think it can be used in Lingnan."
Well, two thousand taels of silver, this is indeed a huge temptation. To put it simply, two thousand taels of silver can allow me to live without worries for more than ten years in this era. Of course, the premise is that I cannot make a fortune. Moreover, there are no silver notes that can be circulated in this era. Only bills used for internal settlements by large commercial banks in various regions, and bills in different places are still different. The bills in Guanzhong cannot be used in Lingnan.
But now I don’t care about this. What does Meixian do? In the future, it will be an international arms dealer. Thousands of taels of silver are just a weapon transaction. Although I try not to use her money, the realm of our treatment of money has gone up.
"You should keep these money for your dowry!" I looked very calm, "It's not easy for you to earn these things. Not only do you run around, but you have to deal with those nobles. Music is a natural and self-centered thing. Once used in performance, it will lose its spirituality. You played it very well last night."
"If you like it, I can only blow it to you." Shi Qingxuan suddenly looked back and smiled charmingly at me, "But my sister wants to stay in the valley."
The first half of the sentence made my heart beat faster, especially the smile of looking back, the beautiful face was endless temptation, which was a mixture of angels and witches, which could make people fall into depravity. The second half of the sentence brought me back to reality. I touched my chest and calmed my emotions, but fortunately I could control it.
"This is absolutely uncontroversial!" I refused flatly, even using the beauty trick. It seems that I will never give up until I achieve my goal.
"Since that's the case, don't blame me for being ruthless." Shi Qingxuan said coldly, "As long as I tell those people in the world that you are planning to infringe on me and intend to invade me, you should know the consequences."
"What's the matter with this? Anyway, my reputation has been ruined to the point of being unrivalled. It's nothing more than you." I said indifferently, "The so-called "breaking a candle is to say that I am the number one thief in the world, and it can be regarded as leaving a name in the Great Sui Dynasty."
Xiaobian, I want to fight with me, you are still a little tender, I looked at her proudly.
"You are such a rogue!" Shi Qingxuan commented pertinently.
"Thank you for the praise!" I said bluntly.
"You can't care about the views of the people in the world, but you can't ignore the views of one person." Shi Qingxuan smiled sly.
"who?"
"Princess Dongming!"
