Not long after the summer harvest, it started to rain, but it was a good rain. If it had fallen a few days earlier, the food might have rotted in the fields, but it was just right and suitable for sowing.

This rain lasted for about three days, and on the third day, the weather was clear after the rain.

In the past three days, Yang Yi not only handled official duties, but also consulted information and made some secret arrangements with several Hanlin and ministers.

The passages for the Northern Expedition of the Five Routes have been half built, and there are troops stationed along the way. Now, the Five Routes have gathered 10,000 people. This is an exercise, and it is also a preparation for the transformation from exercise to actual combat.

Of course, Yang Yi's strings were not as tight as they were, and he could still take time to take into account some literary matters.

When the rain stopped, he took a carriage and came to the Imperial College several streets away. Ruan Xian was a famous scholar in the world and was well-known in the Wei Kingdom. When he came to Shu, he was even more outstanding.

Now he has been promoted to the Imperial College Chief, and he is the deputy of the Imperial College Priest.

In this era, entertainment activities, that is, chess skills are generally suitable, and entertainment and teaching are both good.

"Your Majesty, you are here just in time. Please talk to Ruan to talk to him to serve as a role model for all the students." Ruan Xian, who was welcomed out, walked inward with Yang Yi, and said happily.

"Oh, may Ruan Qing have a new work?" Yang Yi smiled and responded, but she had the conditions: "Only chess and no good tea, but it is not the way to treat guests in Chinese studies."

"Well, in spring, I went to the mountains to pick some green tea before frying it. Take out some and taste it with Your Majesty." Ruan Xian said with a laugh.

While talking and laughing, I had arrived at the chess platform, and in a side hall of the Imperial College, many students were waiting.

The side hall also cleaned up early and removed the rest of the chess table, as if waiting for Yang Yi to arrive. Seeing this, Yang Yi had to shake his head and smile.

"Mr. Ruan is ugly." The chessboard has been set up. Ruan Xian started to cook tea himself. When the tea fragrance overflows, the two of them have already sat at the table, holding one son each, and the game begins.

When you come and go, time passes quickly, and Ruan Xian also enters the literary path. His mental power is also greatly increased at this time. In terms of calculation, Yang Yi is no less than that. Waiting for the two of them, they feel hungry, it is almost noon, and many students can't hold on and temporarily retreat to rest. Ruan Xian hurriedly ordered the prison officials to prepare food, while he continued to drink tea and play chess with Yang Yi.

After a while, the meal was ready and the game stopped. Yang Yi then stood up from the chair with a look of pleasure and had a meal with the students of the Imperial College.

At this moment, there were rapid footsteps outside.

"Your Majesty, Hanlin Scholar Li is looking for a visit." The inner guard who was waiting outside arrived in front of Yang Yi and whispered quietly. Yang Yi also heard the sound of footsteps. Listening to his voice, there was something urgent.

Yang Yi said to Ruan Xian: "Mr. Ruan, all students, please allow me to leave the seat first."

"We respectfully send you to Your Majesty." Ruan Xian and the students said calmly.

Yang Yi stood up and walked outside. When he came out, he saw Li Mi waiting on the steps outside with a Jinyiwei.

When he saw Yang Yi coming out of the inside, Li Mi immediately came over and said softly: "Your Majesty, just after receiving the information, there was already movement in the Wei State."

As he said that, the Jinyiwei Guards beside him stood up, which obviously brought very important information.

"Oh? What's the matter? Don't be anxious, let's talk about it in detail." Hearing this, Yang Yi's eyes narrowed and she said.

Although her expression was calm, she could also see that she was very concerned about the every move of the Sima family in Wei State.

The Jinyi Guard general had just received the information and said that he had heard from Yang Yi: "Your Majesty, two days ago, the bandit General Sima Zhao and Prime Minister Sima Yan sent 50,000 troops in Luoyi, 50,000 troops in Nanyang County, 50,000 Taiyuan County, and 50,000 troops in Shangjun County, totaling 200,000 in all directions, claiming to be 500,000, and has already attacked Guanzhong."

After hearing this news, Yang Yi was not surprised that Wei State could stalemate with Yan Han, but the Sima family was not good, and the reputation was not right. If it was delayed and Cao Wei had another noble township, the Sima family's family's three generations would be empty all the time.

Sima Yan was young after all, and did not have the means and ability of his father to suppress the ministers. Now he had to gain military merits in order to suppress those different voices and turn from a king to an emperor.

However, repeated negotiations could not make Zhong Hui surrender. Sima Yan finally couldn't bear it. He raised his troops to attack Zhong Hui, and then raised an army to attack the four sides, with 200,000 people.

However, Sima Zhao can still get up, but it is also extraordinary. If he can get up this time, if he lies down again, he will probably die.

"It's time!" Yang Yi slapped his hand and ordered: "Call the ministers to discuss matters."

The movement of the Wei State naturally caused movements from all sides, especially Wu Sunhao. He also had the ambition to make achievements and expand his territory, and did not want to be in a corner. However, the Wu State lacked enough information and did not know what the Yan Han and Wei State were like.

Especially now that the battle situation is in Xiliang, Sun Hao cannot reach it. Just like when General Guan was flooding the seven armies in Jingzhou, it was because of Sun Quan's jealousy. He made a fuss and made a back stab.

At this time, the situation of Yan Han did not seem as good as it was back then. The world has been with him for decades, but there are not many people who think about the Han Dynasty. There are no more people and advantages of the people and the advantages of the past.

Moreover, Yan Han was very weak on the surface, and Yang Yi even rushed to send several envoys to rescue the Wu Kingdom, and said he would buy grain ore in large quantities. Sun Hao did not want to turn against him. He combined the information from several parties and felt that although Yan Han had won some victories in the past two years, he also consumed a lot.

Now that the Wei State's 200,000 troops are coming to attack, he feels it is very dangerous whether Yan Han can hold on, but Yan Han is defeated again, and there is still natural danger in Shu Road, so he can hold on.

This is not the time for back stabbing. If Yan Han can occupy Guanzhong, he would have to join forces with Wei and strangle Yan Han. However, Yan Han even gave up Nanxiang County occupied by it. He was not optimistic about this situation.

Sun Hao moved some troops and quietly observed the situation. As for what he was doing, no one could guess.

With the mobilization and confrontation of the Three Kingdoms, the atmosphere in the world became increasingly tense.

At this time, the Hanzhong County City was basically as calm as before. Except for the additional armored soldiers in front of the city gate, the entry and exit of the city was restricted, and this did not affect the prosperity in the city and the dealings between merchants.

Pedestrians come and go on the streets, and shops of all sizes are still full of customers. I deliberately ignore the worries on some people's faces. This is no different from before.

The vendors who set up the stalls lined up. One of the wonton stalls near the city was the most crowded because of the delicious filling and solidity. At this time, there were guests everywhere on several temporary tables.

At this moment, a sound of horse hooves was heard, and dozens of riders rushed away with one general.

"There are another batch, how many batches are there today, right?"

"The fifth batch is here, I don't know what happened."

"Stop it, this is not something we can do!"

People who got up early to do some business, saw this scene, and were talking a lot.

At this time, the re-cultivist was eating wontons on the stall, and he saw a team of cavalry passing by. Re-cultivist turned his head and headed towards the cavalry, and was ecstatic for a long time.

"Keep, this is the side dish you want." The stall owner enthusiastically and thoughtfully put two plates of green onion slices and sauce on it.

"Oh." The revival came to his senses and hurriedly finished a large bowl of wontons, placed more than a dozen coins on the table, revival strides in a direction that was completely different from the direction that the riders were leaving. It was not to enter the city, but to bypass the city.

I walked half a mile away, and there were fewer and fewer houses around me, and a house appeared in front of me.

This house looks no different from the surrounding houses. The door is closed from the inside, but it opens silently after being rebuilt and pushed.

There are three rooms in the house. There is a big tree in the courtyard. The branches and leaves have already grown tender buds. The canopy covers one-third of the courtyard. The sunlight shines through the branches and leaves, making the light in the courtyard slightly dim.

Even so, Chongxiu still saw a person standing under the tree at a glance. He suddenly looked respectful on his face. He stepped forward a few steps and bowed to the man: "Senior Brother Chongjiu, why did you arrive so early?"

The man under the tree is also a Taoist priest, named Chongjiu, and his secular name is Fan Changsheng. He is the eldest brother of this generation. He is very thin, with two dark eyebrows and eyes flashing, making him dare not look at him.

Fan Changsheng's eyes turned to him at this time, and his face showed a faint smile: "I was following the caravan in, and the checkpoints in the northern region have been very tight these days. I came from the three eastern counties. If I hadn't happened to meet a caravan, I'd probably have to go a long way - you're here too!"

"Yes, my junior brother, I am a member of the Imperial Heaven Supervisor and an official. There is no need to go out of the city!" Chong Xiu said.

"The situation is getting worse and worse. Reconstruct. Let me tell you about your recent events. I will decide to take action next." Fan Changsheng said, no longer saying politely, and asked directly.

He had decided to become an official, not as a Taoist priest, but as an ordinary scholar, just like the one who stayed there, and decided to support the Dragon Court. Before that, he had spent several months walking down the river, going to Jiangdong, and then heading north to Xudu, Luoyi and Hedong, and now he has only returned.

Guan Xiu nodded and said, "At this time, the focus of the world is the Zhonghui department of Guanzhong. Sima Zhao sat in Luoyi and sent a total of 200,000 troops. He ordered Sima Yan to recruit more than 50,000 troops from Luoyi to attack Chang'an and Nanyang County to prepare for defense. Shangjun and Taiyuan County each recruited 50,000 troops, directly aiming at Guanzhong. Sima Yan commanded the army and Zhonghui's troops have fought in the past few days. Zhonghui's troops are at a disadvantage. I am afraid that in a while, it will be no more difficult for Sima Yan to lead his troops to attack the city of Chang'an."

Re-xiu thought about his experience and said, "Senior Brother, I saw the generals passing by in a hurry on the street. The city seemed calm, but I was also an official. I already knew some news. Your Majesty has mobilized troops to the north repeatedly, intending to fight the five routes in the north, and has convened meetings many times. According to the news I know, everything is ready and can be opened at any time. He has made up his mind to intervene in the war when necessary. The situation of the battle is inevitable."

"The situation of the battle is inevitable. It seems that it will not be too far from the unification of the world." Fan Changsheng said lightly as he listened to the re-inforcing report.

There is only dullness in the tone, but not much emotion.

Such a qi-refining man has long passed the stage of his love for his children and greed for money and good power. Even his worries about the country and the people have gradually disappeared. Perhaps from the beginning, these people with spiritual roots have never paid attention to these.

For Qi Refiners, the continuation of Taoism and the progress of cultivation are far more important than the secular world.

Guan Xiu asked again: "Senior Brother, how do you think of this battle?"

Fan Changsheng thought for a while and said, "I have personally arrived in Hedong, used geoscience techniques to observe the ancestral temple of Sima family, and also observed the fortune. On the ancestral veins of Sima family, there was already a white energy condensed into a white tiger and lying high above."

"What, is this auspicious sign of the Sima family's prosperity and stable foundation?" Guan Xiu was immediately surprised and asked.

"Re-cultivation, your joy and anger are reflected in your colors, and you have been affected by the Yan Han fortune. You must know that you can only use your luck and not be fascinated by them. Just like a chess player outside the chess, if your heart lies with one side, you will fall into the net!" Fan Changsheng said in a faint and deep voice.

Guan Xiu was shocked, took a few steps back, and said, "It's me who is false."

"Well, you understand, but this does not mean that the Sima family has a prosperous fortune and a stable foundation. When Sima Yi got the ancestor fortune, he has seen it for three generations before. Most of the ancestor fortune has been consumed. At this time, the White Tiger came out of the temple. The so-called reflection of the return will be more intense when it is about to end. It depends on how this level has passed."

"If the Sima family can win and regain Yongliang, then the luck consumed can not only be compensated, but also solid foundation and become aligned with the trend to replace Wei, but it is impossible to unify the world in a short period of time."

"If Yan Han wins and wins Yongliang, then the dragon will emerge from the abyss and sees the dragon in the field. The Yan Han will prosper again, and this game will be over."

After hearing this, Guan Xiu suddenly understood that if the Sima family won for a while, they would not be able to win again and again. They had to regain control of Yong Liang to suppress Yan Han. In this way, the world would be unified after destroying Sun Wu or Yan Han.

However, the Yan Han only needs to win Guanzhong, so the world can be said to be the Yan Han. This difficulty is not difficult for the Yan Han now, because the Yan Han has the ancestral fortune of his ancestors for four hundred years, and this foundation is here.

"The Han master has good strength and luck, and his abilities are also excellent. It can be seen from the previous battles, but the news needs to be transmitted back to the master first, so that the master can be prepared and determined to deal with emergencies.

As for you, don’t act rashly in a short period of time, wait until the master has clear orders.” As he said that, Fan Changsheng turned around and walked into the room.

Zhuo Xiu bowed to his back, responded to the promise, and left.

Qingcheng Mountain

Qingcheng Cave Heaven, Yang Yi has given Qingcheng Tianshi Dao, and it can be done a little bit of development. Outside, some pavilions have been built, and many people have moved out.

However, the real discussion is still in this cave and on the bank of this green lotus.

At this time, the True Lord who appeared in front of Zhang Jiao and the elder of Qingcheng Tianshi Dao, was shining with golden light on his body, disintegrating the erosion of the karma fire bit by bit. It seemed that the situation had improved.

Seeing this, everyone was happy. Cultivating the Immortal Way will not waste the merits in the Tao, but can suppress their luck. Of course, everyone was happy.

"True Lord, you look better, it's really good!" Knowing that the change of the real person at this time was related to the standing of the statue of the mountain king, and also related to the luck gained by the Dragon Court. This made the people present sigh that a mere mortal can actually affect these Qi training men so deeply.

The True Lord has become the Lord of Qingcheng Mountain and can only cultivate the realm of the earthly immortals. However, this is also a good thing for the Dao meridian. If the True Lord suppresses his luck, as long as the Dao meridian does not act in reverse, then the Lord of Shan meridian can maintain the foundation of the Dao meridian for 500 years.

"This move is helpless, but the result was expected to be better. With believers in incense, I did my best, so it was called effective and the incense gradually became popular."

"If today, the Yan Han Dynasty is in great prosperity, you should spare no effort to assist the head teacher in addition to practicing to achieve the goal of continuing the Taoist throne." The Zhenjun spoke slowly at this time.

After saying these words, the karma fire on the True Lord surged again, and he had to end this conversation: "The gods and man have a quiet road, and more words hurt virtue. This conversation ends here. All things in the Tao will be handed over to you. As I gradually transform into a god from the future, the opportunity for this conversation will gradually decrease. You will like it!"
