The officials are like flowing water, while the clerks are like iron.
Li Yunchuan was promoted and transferred away due to his effective governance of An Province.
When Li Yunchuan left, the entire city came out to see him off in a lively display.
As Li Yunchuan exited the city, he went to the Wenshui Pavilion. He didn't go close, but from afar he cupped his fist and bowed, considering it his farewell to Gao Xuan.
When Li Yunchuan boarded the carriage, the housekeeper regrettably said, "Master, why not invite that one to leave with us?"
Li Yunchuan shook his head, "That one sits by Anlong Lake every day, he must have his own pursuits. It's impossible for him to follow us. Moreover, we can't afford to sustain him..."
He smiled again and said, "Over the years, I've benefited from his kindness. If anything, I owe him."
The housekeeper sighed, thinking how wonderful it would be if such a Sword Immortal like Gao Xuan could join them.
