The name Li Twelve Niang is very martial arts-like, and when you hear it, she sounds like the kind of peerless master with a lonely look on his face as he draws his sword and is confused.

Throughout the ages, anyone whose name has four characters is a top master, there is no doubt about it. For example, Ximen Chuixue, Dongfang Bubai, Dongchang Governor...

Gu Qing couldn't help but be in awe of Li Twelve Niang, because not only did her name have four characters, but her master's name also had four characters. It was obvious that her master was a master's den.

Not only that, from Gu Qing's limited historical knowledge, he also knew that Li Twelve Niang was a famous figure.

More than ten years later, a poet named Du Fu wrote a poem that has been handed down for thousands of years, called "Watching Gongsun's disciples dance with swords and weapons." The protagonist of this poem, the "Gongsun's disciples", refers to

It’s Li Twelve Niang.

To be precise, what Gongsun Auntie and Li Twelve Niang are good at is a kind of sword dance, which can be understood as a form of dance. In ancient times, when the powerful princes were drinking and having fun, some people danced swords in the palace to cheer up. Gradually, "sword dance" became

It was a dance form that became popular in the palace, among the powerful and among the people, among which Aunt Gongsun was the leader.

What's strange to Gu Qing now is that this Li Twelfth Mother actually knows his parents, and why does she look so sad and speechless when she looks at him?

Gu Qing couldn't help but think wildly. Could this... be the romantic debt left by the father he had never met? In those days, the couple traveled around the world and were inseparable. This way they could owe romantic debt, which is considered a bold act for a skilled person.

Already.

After cupping his hands, Gu Qing hesitated and said: "Li Twelve...mother?"

Li Twelve Niang smiled, and the sadness in her eyes faded a lot: "Call me Aunt Li, I am the brother and sister of your father."

Gu Qing said honestly: "Aunt Li."

I couldn't help but sigh in my heart. I had only been in Chang'an for one day, and I recognized three elders. From then on, when I walked around Chang'an City, I looked shorter than anyone I saw. I really don't know whether the connections my parents left to me were connections or bad karma.

Li Twelve Niang sat across from Gu Qing Yingying and raised her hand to indicate that Gu Qing should also sit down.

"Your parents and I met in Luoyang and reunited in Chang'an thirteen years ago. We spent three years together in Chang'an until... your parents died in the battle."

Gu Qing's expression suddenly felt strange: "Spend three years together?"

Did I think wrongly? I'm afraid this is not an aunt, but a stepmother...

A soybean used to drink wine suddenly shot up from the table and hit Gu Qing's forehead hard with a snap. Gu Qing covered his forehead and screamed. There was a small red patch on his forehead. While it was extremely painful, Gu Qing was sure

One thing happened, the guy with the four-letter name was indeed a master.

There was a cold and stern look in Li Twelve Niang's eyes.

"You're rude! I am your father's brother and sister, and I am not in trouble. If you dare to make wild guesses again, you will not be leniently punished!"

Gu Qing rubbed his forehead and said with a wry smile: "You are not as good as Luan, but you do have him in your heart, so why try to hide it?"

There were tears in Li Twelve Niang's eyes, and she sighed quietly: "He doesn't have me in his heart... What I hate the most in this life is that your parents left Chang'an at night ten years ago to protect the Zhang family. They didn't even call me. What did they say about the same thing?

Life and death together, in the end, the husband and wife still die together, but I am greedy for life alone..."

Gu Qing saw that she was so hurt that she couldn't help but explain: "The incident happened suddenly that night, and maybe there was no time to call you. Besides, maybe they couldn't bear to let you die..."

Li Twelve Niang suddenly became emotional: "But if we can die together, why would we regret this life? Do you think I am a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death?"

"Aunt Li, don't get excited. It happened ten years ago, so there's no need to be so haunted by it."

Li Twelve Niang calmed down her emotions, and her tone returned to indifference: "After learning that your parents were dead, I vowed to avenge your parents. In the past ten years, I have been to Pinglu many times, and I have been assassinating the evil thieves in Anlu Mountain.

Ten times, it’s a pity that An Lushan is gradually favored by the saints, and there are so many masters around him that he can no longer assassinate easily. As I get older, my skills are not as good as before. I am getting more and more desperate to avenge your parents. Fortunately, you appeared.

…”

Gu Qing asked curiously: "How did you know my identity? How did you know that I came to Chang'an?"

"Don't you know, Zhang Huaiyu also calls me aunt?" Li Twelve's eyes flashed with smile: "Nominally speaking, Zhang Huaiyu is half of your parents' disciples. Your parents are unwilling to formally accept them as disciples, but they taught her

Some martial arts, although not in the name of master and disciple, are actually master and disciple."

Gu Qing was stunned, then shook his head in secret contempt.

When I first met Zhang Huaiyu, he was dressed in white and had an image that was not stained by smoke and dust. I didn't expect that the thick eyebrows and big eyes turned out to be a big mouth. She told everyone that she came to Chang'an, and her personality completely collapsed.

Li Twelve Niang sighed: "Zhang Huaiyu is a good girl, but your parents had a profound influence on her. She spent her good years and youth in the shadow of your parents. It is pitiful and pity. Of course, doing chivalry and justice is for the sake of justice in the world, but

There is no need to live for chivalry and righteousness. Your parents were also heroes in the game back then. In addition to being chivalrous and righteous, they also did many things and lived a wonderful life. Only if they live up to the word "hero" in their lives, they are truly alive.

."

"Gu Qing, next time you see Zhang Huaiyu, try to persuade her and untie her knot. Your parents died to protect the Zhang family. As a member of the Zhang family, Zhang Huaiyu has always felt guilty..."

Li Twelve Niang sighed quietly: "Tell Zhang Huaiyu, your parents are not protecting the Zhang family, they are protecting the loyal and good people of the court. It is not the 'Zhang family' that makes them willing to risk their lives, but the 'Zhongliang'."

'Justice' has nothing to do with the Zhang family."

Gu Qing nodded in agreement, and Zhang Huaiyu's young but indifferent face appeared in his mind. He felt a little regretful that he didn't have an in-depth chat with her when he was in Shiqiao Village, and he didn't notice what was going on in her mind at all.

Gu Qing couldn't help but frown secretly and reflect, is he as straight as Song Gensheng?

It's a bit ridiculous, no matter in the past life or in this life, my emotional intelligence has always been so high that the young ladies are afraid of seeing through their vanity...

After Li Twelve Niang finished speaking, she stood up, looked deeply at Gu Qing, and sighed quietly: "Your face looks very much like your father..."

Then Li Twelve Niang said again: "You came to Chang'an yesterday. Staying in an inn for a long time is not a long-term thing. I will give you a house tomorrow..."

Gu Qing said hurriedly: "Aunt Li, don't worry, we have been given a house today and we will move there in a few days."

Li Twelve Niang smiled and said: "It seems that your ability is more powerful than I imagined. The temple is a hundred times more dangerous than the rivers and lakes. I hope you live up to my father's name."

"I live in Changlefang. Tomorrow I will send someone to take you to my house to identify me. If there is any danger or difficulty in Chang'an in the future, you can come and find me. Although I am only a sword dancer, I know the powerful people far away.

It's more than you think. Unless you cause a huge disaster, I can usually help you make peace. Gu Qing, you don't have to be polite to me, let alone trust me. I am your only relative in this world."

After speaking, Li Twelve Niang left the dining hall, went out and got on the carriage.

Gu Qing was still sitting in the dining hall blankly. He had met too many people today and he needed to digest it.

Hao Donglai and Shi Daxing came together again, still looking excited.

"Li Twelve Niang! Young Master actually knows her, that's amazing!" Hao Donglai looked envious and admired.

Gu Qing came back to his senses: "Is Li Twelve Madam famous?"

Shi Daxing sighed: "Not only is she famous, she is famous all over the Tang Dynasty. Her master Gongsun once entered the palace to dance the sword for the emperor, which was praised by the emperor. The dignitaries of Chang'an City rushed to invite them, but Gongsun rarely danced the sword for the dignitaries. Ten of her disciples

Of the remaining disciples, Li Twelve Niang was the most famous. She was a prodigy in sword dancing, and was aloof and arrogant. However, she was a righteous person. The dignitaries in Chang'an all praised her virtues. It would be a great honor to invite her to dance at their door.

"

Gu Qing was speechless.

The whole day today seemed to be lived in the grudges and hatreds of the previous generation. Gu Qing's mind was a little confused at this time, as if he had watched period silent movies all day, and his mind was filled with black and white images.

I silently summarized what I saw and heard today. Zhang Jiuzhang, Li Guangbi, and Li Twelve Niang, the three elders I met today are all the old friends of my parents. From then on, they can be regarded as my background backers in Chang'an City. Maybe there are more than these three, just

Three elders came to visit him one day, and in the future, there might be more old friends of his parents who would come out to recognize him.

Although Yang Guifei has a good impression of him, it is only a good impression after all. If Gu Qing gets into any trouble in Chang'an City in the future, he will most likely be embarrassed to trouble Yang Guifei. Favor is like borrowing money. Every time you borrow money, your friendship will become weaker.

Gu Qing would not choose to ask Concubine Yang for help unless it was a critical moment where his life was at stake.

So, the network resources that I can use are the three elders I recognized today. But I also try not to use them. Although the three elders are good to me and have nothing to do with their interests, asking for help, no matter what I ask for,

Anyone can ruin a friendship, and Gu Qing has never been used to asking others for help. He usually solves problems by himself.

Gu Qing motioned to the two shopkeepers to sit down and ordered another jar of wine. The three of them drank and chatted.

"Two shopkeepers, you might as well go out and inquire about the business community in Chang'an City tomorrow. Doing business in Chang'an City is not as simple as buying a few shops. It is a place where merchants gather in the capital. There may be some powerful people behind each merchant.

You just buy a shop and open the door to do business without thinking, and you don’t know who you have offended unintentionally. You need to find out the situation clearly first, and then do business after you have a rough idea.”

Hao Donglai nodded repeatedly: "Young Master Shao Lang is right. There is no rush to buy a shop. We must first find out the situation in Chang'an City clearly. Especially for those who make porcelain, we must understand clearly that the profits here are too big.

The competition for profits among porcelain merchants has become increasingly cruel."

Gu Qing pondered for a while and then said slowly: "As for me, I will work as an errand at Zuowei. Just like you, I also want to figure out the situation, so in the early days of my errand, I have to set up a personal profile for myself..."

The two were stunned: "What is 'personality'?"

"It's character setting. No matter what your original temperament is, the temperament you show in front of outsiders is another matter. Outsiders like your temperament, so you pretend to be that temperament. When you first come here, you don't want to make friends, but just
