Chapter 54 Chapter Two

Xie An carefully covered Song Beifeng with a quilt, his expression was surprisingly calm, but everyone in the room felt the grief in his heart. In the room besides Yan Fei, there were Xie Shi, Xie Yan and Xie Xuan and Liu Yu who had just rushed back. The injury of Song Beifeng shocked the entire Xie Mansion.Liang Dingdu and dozens of generals gathered outside the door to wait for the news, everyone was inexplicably sad and indignant. Xie An stood beside the couch, staring at Song Beifeng's pale face, suddenly his body shook. Xie Xuan was the first to support him, followed by Xie Yan and Xie Shi.

Xie Yan said sadly: Dad! Xie An stood up reluctantly, shook his head and sighed: I can still hold on. Xie Xuan said in a deep voice: Second Uncle, please leave this matter to me. Second Uncle, rest well and put your health first. Xie An showed a exhausted and exhausted expression, and nodded slightly. Under Xie Xuan's wink, Xie Shi and Xie Yan helped Xie An out of the room. Xie Xuanning stood still, staring blankly at Song Beifeng who was seriously injured and unconscious.Yan Fei and Liu Yu stood silently behind him, not daring to disturb him. The atmosphere in the room was so heavy that it was unbearable. Neither of them knew what consequences would be brought about by the other party's blatant provocation against Xie's mansion this time?How will Xie Xuan, who holds the military power in Beifu, deal with it?

After a long while, Xie Xuan said calmly: Uncle Song should be able to recover. Fortunately, Brother Yan risked his life to rescue him, otherwise Uncle Song would not only die, but this matter would become an unsolved case. Yan Fei felt a pain in his heart, and said: With Brother Song's swordsmanship and body skills, there should be no problem breaking through and escaping, but because he wanted to save me, he would be caught in a tight siege and be taken advantage of by the enemy. Xie Xuan still carried the two of them behind his back, shook his head and said: The enemy is in the dark and we are in the light.If they plan to deal with uncle, uncle will never escape.This time, due to the coincidence of fate, Brother Yan's recovery power, although not able to use it freely, is enough to save the uncle.

Liu Yu said in a deep voice: Who is the one who uses the flying ring? Xie Xuan turned around slowly, with a sharp smile floating on his lips, he raised his hands behind his back, walked towards the door of the house, and said softly: "Does Xiaoyu want to know?"come with me. Liu Yu and Yan Fei, comrades-in-arms who have experienced life and death together, looked at me, but they didn't understand the true meaning of Xie Xuan's words. Xie Xuan walked to the door, and led by Liang Dingdu, all the families packed the outer hall with hatred and grief in their eyes, waiting for Xie Xuan's instructions.

Xie Xuan smiled calmly, and said lightly: Uncle's life should be saved, Master Zhi Dun is on his way here, don't panic about this, everything in the mansion is as usual, with me, Xie Xuan, I will seek justice for uncle. All the families will kneel down and answer in unison. Xie Xuan shouted: Get up!Take a good look at Uncle. After that, go out through the hall through the passage that the house will give way to, and come to the corridor. Yan Fei and Liu Yu chased after him, faintly feeling that Xie Xuan was not as simple as talking empty words, but wanted to take immediate action.The invincible commander who defeated Fu Jian's million-strong army was really angry because of Song Beifeng's injury.

Xie Xuan still had his hands behind his back, and walked steadily and calmly towards the west courtyard. On the surface, Xie Mansion is still so peaceful and peaceful, and the garden after the snow melts is full of spring vitality, but a storm is brewing and no one can stop it. Yan Fei couldn't help but asked again: Does Shuai Xuan know who is using the flying ring? Xie Xuan said leisurely: Of course I know, ha!Since they dared to use quack tactics to deal with uncle, I will use quack tactics to fight back against him. I want to teach them that they cannot afford the consequences of messing with our Xie family.

Full of doubts, the two followed him to the forest path in the central garden and walked towards the west courtyard. Xie Xuan didn't speak any more, and went straight to the big square of the Songbai Hall in the West Courtyard. More than a dozen guards there were the soldiers who accompanied him back to Jiankang this time, and hurriedly led their horses to meet him. Xie Xuan made a stop gesture, and said leisurely: Mr. Yan, Vice General Liu and I went out to wander around.You don't need to ride a horse, and you don't need to follow, just have a good rest. The soldiers took orders and went.

Yan Fei was even more puzzled. According to reason, Xie Xuan, the supreme commander in charge of the front line, suddenly returned to the capital, so why should he report to Sima Yao first. Xie Xuan and Liu Yu were wearing ordinary clothes, the former looked like a celebrity, while the latter was dressed like a bodyguard. This kind of attire was common in Jiankang and would not be an eyesore. It was the first time for Yan Feishang to see Xie Xuan's demeanor. Although it was not the first time they met, he was in a coma at that time and didn't know anything about human affairs.Xie Xuan's attitude towards people and affairs is closer to Xie An, which is completely different from Xie Shi and Xie Yan's self-respect.Xie Yan even didn't look at Yan Fei directly, obviously because the desolate Yan Fei was worthless in his heart and could only be used for dispatch.

What surprised Yan Fei the most was that Liu Yu didn't become arrogant because of his promotion. Instead, he was more reserved than before. Both self-cultivation and self-cultivation have improved a lot, not Liu Yu in frontier famine.To have such a huge change in just a few months, the battle of Feishui is invaluable to his experience, and Xie Xuan's guidance and subtle influence on him is even more indispensable. The only thing that hasn't changed is Liu Yu's life-threatening friendship with him. When he knows that Yan Fei's situation has changed a lot, the ecstasy gushing out of Liu Yu's eyes is absolutely impossible to fake.

Xie Xuan led the two of them for a leisurely stroll along the royal road towards Miyagi. The five-mile-long imperial road is lively and bustling, with cars coming and going, everyone busy with their own affairs, but they are at a loss for the struggle that is going on silently in the capital city of Jiankang. Xie Xuan had a relaxed expression, just like the one who went to a certain restaurant for lunch, and said calmly: If you were standing in my position now, what would you do? Yan Fei was stunned. Unexpectedly, Xie Xuan asked such a question, and his tone seemed to be gossip, kind and unrestrained. Compared with Xie An, it was another kind of heart-wrenching feeling.

Liu Yuxian took it for granted, glanced at Yan Fei, knew that he would not rush to answer before him, and said without hesitation: "Xuan Shuai is aware, since he stepped out of Bird Clothes Lane, the general has been thinking about this question.Now the enemy clearly intends to put Uncle Song to death, if successful, everyone in our Xie Mansion will be in danger, and Jiankang will also be in danger.Under such circumstances, I will summon elite soldiers, enter Stone City with lightning speed, and then calmly evacuate the family members from the house. I dare to guarantee that Brother Sima Yao will not dare to hum a word. Yan Fei interrupted and said: Do you know that Huan Xuan has resigned from the position of chief minister? Liu Yu was startled and said, "Is there such a thing?" Xie Xuanxian had already been informed of this by Xie An, nodded and said: "It is true!"He turned his head and took a deep look at Liu Yu, and said with a smile: "Jiankang has always controlled the most affluent area in the south of the Yangtze River. Although the northern counties are barriers, they are the first to bear the brunt every time Huma goes south, so production is ruined, and food and grass have to rely on Jiankang." , compared with the situation in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River controlled by Jingzhou West, Xiaoyu must keep this in mind. Yan Fei was surprised when he heard that, if Liu Yu's previous words implied that Xie Xuan rebelled, he had no respect for the Sima Dynasty.He dared to say these words that could lead to decapitation, obviously he had a close relationship with Xie Xuan, and he was not afraid that Xie Xuan would betray him or be unhappy. And Xie Xuan's answer was even more strange, as if he was pointing to Liu Yu the key to the victory or defeat of the rebellion. Logically, if he wanted to overthrow the Sima Dynasty, he should do it all by himself, and Liu Yu, a little lieutenant general, could only rely on Jiwei. In any case, the conversation between the two has shown that Xie Xuan treats Liu Yu differently and cultivates him carefully. However, the Xie family has no successors for the time being, Xie An and Xie Shi are old, and the other younger generation Xie Yan is not material, if Xie Xuan can find capable soldiers among the generals of the Beifu, it will be beneficial to the Xie family. Xie Xuan turned into a side street, sighed lightly, and smiled at Yan Fei: "Brother Yan's situation is weird and special, and I agree with my second uncle, Brother Yan is a blessing in disguise."With Brother Yan's talent and wisdom, he will definitely find a way to recover his martial arts, which is predictable. Liu Yu said happily: "If you survive a catastrophe, you will have future blessings. I have the most confidence in Brother Yan." The two only knew about Yan Fei's experience of flying to Dusou to seek medical treatment and afterward, but they still knew nothing about Yan Fei's experience before he fell into a coma for a hundred days. Yan Fei smiled wryly and said: I don't even dare to think about restoring martial arts.This statement is not exaggerating at all.Because all my previous exercises are useless now, and my thinking in this situation can only follow the old way, so once I deliberately think about it, the abnormal energy in my body will go according to my will, and something will go wrong, so I really can't even think about it. Xie Xuan smiled and turned away from looking at him, and said relaxedly: Brother Yan's words are interesting, and this shows Brother Yan's heart.I have a piece of advice. In the final analysis, your unprecedented situation comes from the technique of alchemy, and Taoism teaches the way of doing nothing without doing nothing. If brothers Yan can work hard in this direction, they will surely have another achievement. Liu Yu nodded and said: It makes sense! Yan Fei's heart skipped a beat, and he suddenly remembered that "San Tong Qi" written by Wei Boyang was returning to his bosom, it was discovered by Xie An's envoy when he was changing clothes for Song Beifeng to heal his injuries, and sent back to Yan Fei.This book represents the highest essence of Taoism, and it may be of great help to me.Just the beginning of the universe, the gate of Yi, the parent of all the hexagrams.It seems to be consistent with my current situation, Niwan Palace is the Qianmen, Dantian is the Kunhu, I can't help thinking about it. Xie Xuan suddenly burst out laughing. The two couldn't help looking at him. Xie Xuan said with a smile: "Wars are never won, so defeat is also common." Before he finished speaking, Liu Yu was already shaking violently. Much to Yan Fei's surprise, he reached out to block their way, with a resolute look on his face, and said: Let's turn back!As long as the coach is willing to nod, we will fight to the death to capture Stone City for Xuanshuai. Yan Fei secretly sighed in his heart, the reason why Liu Yu dared to block the way was because Liu Yu had just guessed where Xie Xuan was going and what he was going to do.But he risked his life to remonstrate, hoping that Xie Xuan would change his mind, and even more hoped that Xie Xuan would raise troops to overthrow the Sima Dynasty, instead of using quack tactics to solve the matter. With the sharpness of Beifu's soldiers, if they can capture Stone City, the Jiankang Dynasty will collapse without a fight. Xie Xuan patted Liu Yu on the shoulder, smiled and said, "Let's talk aside." Liu Yu had no choice but to let go, and Yan Fei followed Xie Xuan, who was still at ease, and turned into a side street. It suddenly opened up in front of him. The stone bridge connected Jin, connecting the streets along the river on both sides. On River Street, the arches of the bridge are raised and the ring holes are rounded, breaking the monotonous flat space. Xie Xuan climbed to the top of the bridge, stroked the railing with both hands, stared at the flowing water under the bridge, and sighed: I came back this time, on the one hand, to see how Brother Yan is doing, and on the other hand, to find that Brother Sima Yao is getting worse and worse. Liu Yu glanced at Yan Fei who was on the other side of Xie Xuan, and said in a deep voice: "Xuan Shuai did not get the approval of the imperial court beforehand when he returned to Beijing this time. The Sima Yao brothers must be dissatisfied with Xuan Shuai. Now that this is the case, Xuan Shuai and the imperial court will have nothing to do with each other." possibility.That being the case, why not do the same thing, and simply use the name of crusade against Sima Daozi to control Jiankang. At that time, no matter if Xuanshuai wants to deal with Huanxuan or send troops to the Northern Expedition, he can do whatever he wants. I only heard Xie Xuan and Liu Yu refer to the Southern Jin Emperor and Sima Daozi as Sima Yao brothers. It is known that they have no respect for the Sima Dynasty.In fact, this time Xie Xuan returned to Beijing suddenly without asking for instructions, and he was accompanied by elite soldiers, and his strength was enough to threaten the Sima Dynasty, which made it clear that Xie Xuan was dissatisfied with Sima Yao.This is also a blatant counterattack against Sima Yao's brothers for excluding Xie An. Yan Fei thought to himself that if he had been Sima Yao or Sima Daozi, he could only swallow this breath, and would never dare to force Xie An or Xie Xuan into rebellion.Unless Xie Xuan could be killed in one fell swoop, making the Beifu army leaderless, the Sima Dynasty still had a slight chance of winning, and it would depend on Sima Daozi's ability in the future.Let's see if he can withstand the revenge of the Beifu generals, and at the same time, he has to deal with Huan Xuan, who has always had ambitions for the throne. Liu Yu wanted to prevent Xie Xuan from using quack tactics to avenge Song Beifeng's attack because he knew that Xie Xuan's trip was to bring bad luck to the enemy, and he was afraid that the other party would set up a net and wait for Xie Xuan to step into the trap. Liu Yu is still the Liu Yu Yan Fei knew when he was in the frontier, he pursues practical results in everything, never flinches, and has no womanly kindness, in this respect he is very close to Tuoba Gui. However, his respect and affection for Xie Xuan came from the heart, without any falsehood, just like the friendship between him and Yan Fei. There was a bitter expression on the corner of Xie Xuan's mouth, but his tone remained calm, and he said lightly: This demonstration against the Sima Dynasty is already the limit of what I, Xie Xuan, can do.I will not overthrow Sima's world without my second uncle's consent.It's not because of lack of strength, let me ask, in today's world, except for Huan Xuan, who would dare to compete with me, Xie Xuan, if the second uncle is willing to raise his arms, Jiankang will be defeated without a fight.For me, Xie Xuan, Sima Yao's throne is within easy reach. Liu Yu was puzzled and said, "Since this is the case, why does Xuan Shuai still risk his life?"As long as you express your interests to An Gong, and An Gong is a man of wisdom, you will definitely get him to nod and agree.Nothing is better than being pushed by the enemy every step of the way, and being in fear every day. Xie Xuan smiled wryly and said: Second Uncle will definitely not agree. Liu Yu said sadly and indignantly: "How could An Gong be a foolish and loyal person to Sima Yao?"Not only did this foolish king favor the traitor Sima Daozi, but he also raised taxes immediately after the Battle of Feishui.Overthrowing him will only please people and benefit all people. Xie Xuan shot an incomprehensibly sad look in his eyes, and said softly: Of course, the second uncle is not a foolish and loyal person, but he has to think about the overall situation, and he is afraid that he will take advantage of Huan Xuan. Until now, Yan Fei still couldn't intervene. Liu Yu said in amazement: "Since Jiankang has fallen into our hands, why can Huan Xuan do nothing to Xuan Shuai?" Xie Xuan moved his eyes to the clear sky, and slowly said word by word: It is due to the ruthless and unpredictable providence! Liu Yu and Yan Fei couldn't understand Xie Xuan's words at all, they couldn't understand why he got involved with the unpredictable God. Xie Xuan sighed, and said: This matter is a long story, and it is a secret that I have kept in my heart for more than ten years, even Liu Laozhi and He Qian don't know it. Liu and He are confidant generals who were single-handedly promoted by Xie Xuan. Although they are divided into masters and subordinates, they are as close as brothers.Assuming that Xie Xuan was killed in Jiankang, the Heavenly King and Lao Tzu would not be able to stop the two fierce generals from Beifu from raising their troops to take revenge.Now Xie Xuan is keeping this secret even from them. Yan Fei said: If it's a secret, Shuai Xuan doesn't need to say it. Xie Xuan shook his head and said: Now I feel uncomfortable, life and death are fate, and my second uncle has seen that I will not live past the mark of forty-five years old. Liu Yu and Yan Fei were shocked when they heard this, they never imagined that the secret that Xie Xuan said was actually such a thing. Liu Yu tremblingly said: "Although I respect Mr. An, how can I believe in the skill of matching people, or Xuan Shuai, who is blessed with great fortune and equal to the sky, can survive this catastrophe." Xie Xuan replied calmly, and said with a smile: "Life and death are just a matter of leisure, and everyone will not escape this disaster. I don't care about it sooner or later." Yan Fei frowned and said: Of course we can't compare with An Gong in this respect.But from my point of view, Xuan Shuai's facial features are perfect, which I have only seen in my life, so how could he be the one who died young? Xie Xuan laughed dumbly and said: The problem is right here. It is full of disadvantages, but modesty benefits. Absolute perfection is originally a perfect match, but it is a defect in itself. Good luck.My second uncle once criticized that the moment when I was at the peak of my career was just when disaster was about to come, and the facts proved that my second uncle's words were really unpleasant. Liu Yudao: So what if An Gong's words are true?We'll go all out and give it a go, whatever God thinks? Xie Xuan smiled and said: You don't understand how heavy the family's burden is, and you don't even understand why I refuse to seize the opportunity.But one day you will understand that success or failure is not a temporary gain or loss.bring it on!I want to see who dares to stop me, Xie Xuan?Let's see who dares to block my Jiushao Dingyin sword?
