Chapter 717: I'm afraid you're not a drama spirit
In the face of Yuan Chang's murderous words, Wang Xun's expression did not change in the slightest, but he said unhurriedly: "If you kill it, there is something, and Youzhou Mu is afraid that he will not be able to get it for the rest of his life." β
Yuan Chang frowned slightly, what was there he wanted to get?
After thinking for a moment, Yuan Chang's mind flashed, and what he wanted most at the moment seemed to be a key, that is, the Five Elements Key to unlock the secret of the Shuntian Alliance. Now, he has gathered four of the five keys: wood, water, fire, and earth, and he is just the last one, could it be that the last key is on Wang Xun's body?
As if he knew what Yuan Chang was thinking, Wang Xun smiled and said, "It seems that Youzhou Mu has already guessed what it is? Of course, it is impossible to carry such a treasure with him, so if Youzhou Mu wants to get it, he must agree to the conditions below." β
"On what terms?"
Yuan Chang looked at Wang Xun and asked calmly. If the conditions are not too excessive, he doesn't mind agreeing to the other party, if it is too much, Yuan Chang doesn't want it. Originally, he was able to gather four keys before, and he felt that it was a blessing to invite the heavens, but he didn't expect to have the opportunity to gather five keys. Therefore, this is something he didn't expect, and he won't be too entangled. And if Wang Xun thinks that he can use a key to control his thoughts, then he is too naΓ―ve.
It stands to reason that Wang Xun has the key in his hand, and if he is optimistic about Yuan Chang, he should hand it over to Yuan Chang unconditionally, instead of exchanging conditions. However, Yuan Chang also understood that not everyone could follow the orders of their ancestors, and he was not surprised that someone had other ideas. After all, the human heart is the most complex thing in the world, and no one can fully see through it.
Wang Xun's face suddenly became hideous, and he said hatefully: "I hope that Youzhou Mu can hand over the head of Cai Yong's old horseman to you, so that I will hand over the object to Youzhou Mu." β
"Why?"
Yuan Chang's flat voice made Wang Xun unable to guess what Yuan Chang was thinking at the moment, but he didn't hide Yuan Chang's inquiry, and said: "You might as well tell Youzhou Mu that the former Situ Wang Yun is the biological father of Xia." However, my father never made his relationship with me public in order to keep the treasure from falling into the hands of others, and the treasure has been kept on me since I grew up. Once Cai Yong died, Confucianism would inevitably suffer a heavy blow, and the miscellaneous family would hopefully return to the prosperity of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. My father was dying when Li Dao and Guo Yan attacked the thieves, and the only regret was that he couldn't get rid of Cai Yong. Now, I just want to fulfill this last wish for my father and use Cai Yong's head to pay homage to my father's grave. β
"In this way, you, like Wang Situ, are also learning the way of miscellaneous families!"
Although Yuan Chang was asking, his words were affirmative, Wang Xun didn't think about hiding it, and after listening to Yuan Chang's words, he nodded to indicate that what Yuan Chang said was right.
"However, I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you, it's impossible for Benzhou Mu to use Cai Yong's head to exchange that object with you. β
"Why, don't you want that treasure anymore?"
Wang Xun looked at Yuan Chang with wide eyes, as if he couldn't understand Yuan Chang's answer. You must know that this treasure has been inherited for a long time, which shows how precious it is. Moreover, their vein is the one with the most complete inheritance, and they know the secrets most clearly, and they understand the importance of this secret to the rebels. However, Yuan Chang was unwilling to exchange Cai Yong's head with him for such a treasure, which made him incomprehensible. Although the ancestor had already admonished that this treasure should be handed over to the other party if he recognized the other party, Wang Xun had already ignored it in order to fulfill his father's last wish. Wang Xun had been separated from Wang Yun since he was born, and it was not until he understood some things that he saw his father for the first time, and he also knew that his lineage had been a great responsibility since his ancestors. Therefore, he never blamed Wang Yun, but felt that his father was extremely great. Moreover, he was also very supportive of Wang Yun's way of revitalizing the family, and did a lot of things secretly. Later, Wang Yun died when Li Dao and Guo Yan thieves attacked Chang'an, Wang Xun did not go to Li Dao and Guo Yan to settle accounts, because he knew that Wang Yun didn't care about these things at all, and the most important thing was that the miscellaneous family could grow. Therefore, he thought about killing Cai Yong, and when he found Cai Yong, he found that Cai Yong was following the side of the rebel, and he knew that he would not be able to succeed. Today, he finally had the opportunity to negotiate with Yuan Chang, but the result was a great disappointment to him.
Yuan Chang glanced at him, and said unhurriedly: "I forgot to tell you that Cai Yong is going to become the father-in-law of the Benzhou pastor in the near future, you said that the Benzhou pastor will exchange the father-in-law's head for that thing, do you think it is possible?"
"You..."
Wang Xun glared at Yuan Chang, with an angry expression on his face, and said in a loud voice: "Youzhou Mu, have you forgotten your mission as a rebel?
"So?"
Yuan Chang asked rhetorically with a flat expression, and said leisurely: "To be honest, I don't really care about the mission of the Rebels. If I could, I would prefer to be able to live an ordinary life with my family and friends, of course, the development of reality does not allow me to live such a life. However, I will not trade the lives of my relatives and friends for the sake of ethereal things. So, Wang Changshi, you are doomed to be disappointed. β
"Hateful!"
Wang Xun was extremely angry, his father had to fight for all his life, was it destined to have no future? Now, Wang Yun is dead, and he must keep a useful body in order to rejuvenate the way of the family. Otherwise, if there was an heir, he would have been desperate to kill Cai Yong to comfort his father's soul in the sky.
Yuan Chang seemed to feel that Wang Xun's expression was not vivid enough, so he added fuel and vinegar and said: "By the way, there is one thing I want to tell you, Cai Yong also has the same treasure in his hand, and he has already handed it over to me." β
Cao Cao on the side turned on the spectator mode from beginning to end, without saying a word, and the big drama in front of him made him feel very exciting. It's just that when Yuan Chang's words came out, Cao Cao's face was full of speechlessness. Of course, Yuan Chang has added a play, and the next scenes should be even more exciting.
"Since Cai Yong's old puppet has already given you the treasure, there is no use value, why don't you want to exchange his head for the treasure in my hand? Besides, with the means of Youzhou herding you, no one will find out if you kill Cai Yong, you can still marry his daughter, why don't you want to!"
Although Wang Xun was a little surprised that Cai Yong also had a treasure in his hand, he still refused to give up his conditions, and roared loudly, as if he wanted to vent the depression in his heart.
"Some things can't be measured by whether they are useful, if everything is measured by value, then what is the meaning of life!"
Yuan Chang responded lightly, and then added, "Moreover, I'm not afraid to tell you, I've already gathered four pieces of that treasure, and I only need the one in your hand to be able to get together." According to your value, isn't the treasure in your hand a priceless treasure to me, and I have said the past with what I have exchanged with you? However, in fact, this is not the case, in my eyes, there are some things that cannot be measured by value, for example, I want to marry Zhao Ji as his wife, and if Cai Yong dies, Zhao Ji will definitely be sad and sad, and I will not be happy. What is the use of such a treasure to me?"
If Cao Cao knew a word, he would definitely not be able to help but say it: Youzhou Mu, I'm afraid you are not a drama spirit. He felt that Yuan Chang wanted to be angry with Wang Xun, and the more he said this, the more he didn't use Cai Yong's head to exchange treasures, and Yuan Chang wanted to say it. Of course, Cao Cao didn't care about the treasures, and when he heard that Yuan Chang was going to marry Cai Zhaoji, he felt that he should show his face and get a boxed lunch after watching the scene for so long.
"Youzhou Mu actually wants to marry a talented woman who used to be famous in the capital, and her life is enviable. β
Listening to Cao Cao's words that seemed to be a little resentful, Yuan Chang turned his eyes, looked at Cao Cao in the cold light, and said, "Yanzhou Mu seems to have some ideas about me, my future wife?"
"Ahem!"
Cao Cao laughed embarrassedly, quickly shook his head, and said, "My Fair Lady, good gentleman." Since Cai Dacai's talented daughter is going to marry Youzhou Mu, how can I, Cao Cao, have an idea, just a moment of emotion, please don't take it to heart Youzhou Mu. β
Yuan Chang had a look of suspicion on his face, speaking of which, Cao Cao's personality of liking wives is well known. And Cai Yan is the only one he likes, but he is not a wife.
Historically, Cai Yan was plundered by the Xiongnu, and later, Cao Cao ransomed it from the Xiongnu with a lot of money. said that it was because of his good friendship with Cai Yong, however, in fact, it was because Cao Cao had always admired Cai Yan. In the early years, Cao Cao was the second-generation son of officials in Luoyang City, and Cai Yan inherited Cai Yong's talent and learning, and was the second generation of Wen. Such a talented woman coupled with good looks, of course Cao Cao admires it. It's just that Cao Cao is the son of a eunuch, and a literati like Cai Yong naturally looks down on eunuchs, plus Cao Cao and Cai Yong are friends of the same generation, and it is ethically impossible for Cai Yan to marry Cao Cao. Later, it was promised to the Hedong Wei family, which made Cao Cao sad for a long time, perhaps, and later Cao Cao's preference for wives was also for this reason. Today, I learned the news of Cai Yan again, but I didn't want to marry Yuan Chang. In Cao Cao's heart, perhaps a graceful and talented woman like Cai Yan can only live up to her talent if she marries a rebel like Yuan Chang.
Speaking of which, Yuan Chang admired the person who arranged the key.
One is in the hands of Pang Degong, or in the hands of Pang Degong's ancestors, Pang Degong's ancestors lived in Jingzhou, Ma Jun's ancestors lived in Liangzhou, and the two places are tens of millions of miles apart; and Sikong Xingxing's ancestors lived in a fixed place and wandered around; in addition, Cai Yong's ancestors and Wang Yun's ancestors lived under a blue sky, and, more subtlely, one is a representative of Confucianism and the other is a representative of miscellaneous families, just like the two schools of thought of enemies, I am afraid that no one would have imagined that there would be a connection between the two. Therefore, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is even more difficult to get together these five keys than the ninety-nine-eighty-one difficulties of the Western Heavens. At least, there is a goal and direction for learning scriptures from the west, and to gather these five keys, there will be no clue at all. If it weren't for luck, Yuan Chang might not even be able to see a key. Now, he has gathered four keys, and the last key has been delivered to him.
"Why, why..."
On the one hand, Wang Xun seemed to be played bad by Yuan Chang, and kept muttering to himself, as if he couldn't accept the fact that Yuan Chang didn't exchange with him.
"Ahem!"
Yuan Chang coughed lightly, like a morning bell and a dusk drum exploded in Wang Xun's brain, which woke him up, and when his eyes turned around, Yuan Chang said: "Wang Changshi, I think your thoughts may have fallen into a dead end. When Wang Situ was alive, he wanted to revive the miscellaneous family, and did not say that Cai Yong must be killed. Even if Cai Yong survives, as long as you miscellaneous children are willing to work hard, you can still carry forward the way of miscellaneous families. β
"Huh!"
Wang Xun looked bitter and said helplessly: "This matter is not easy to say, since Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty adopted Dong Zhongshu's suggestion, 'depose the hundred schools and respect Confucianism alone', it is difficult for other schools to survive." In particular, the miscellaneous faction has always been hostile to Confucianism, and the miscellaneous faction has declined to such an extent that Confucianism has contributed a lot. If you want to build a complex family, the only way to let Confucianism go through turmoil may be a glimmer of opportunity. And Cai Yong, as the leader of Confucianism, his death will inevitably have a huge impact. β
"You don't think right, if you hope for the decay of others, and expect yourself to be strong, it will be short-lived in the end. β
Yuan Chang shook his head, disapproving of Wang Xun's idea, and said: "In addition to Confucianism, the military and Legalists are also active in the imperial court and the people, and they have been relying on their own efforts to carry forward the school they represent and be known to the world. However, if you give the miscellaneous family a fair and stable environment, then do you think you have the ability to grow the miscellaneous family?"
"Really?"
Wang Xun's bright eyes looked at Yuan Chang, and when Yuan Chang responded positively, he immediately said confidently: "If there are such conditions, I am confident that I can make the miscellaneous family develop into a school that is not inferior to Confucianism." As we all know, the children of miscellaneous families are the most outstanding. However, Youzhou is only a land of one state, and my father hopes that everyone in the world will know the wonder of my miscellaneous family, if so, I am afraid that Youzhou Mu will still not be able to satisfy Zaixia. β
"No, it's not a secluded place. β
Yuan Chang's face was straight, and he said seriously: "As long as the Shuntian Alliance can be eradicated and let me dominate the world, the ideal academic atmosphere in my heart is a grand scene where a hundred flowers bloom and a hundred schools of thought contend." When the time comes, why is it difficult for the miscellaneous family to have such fair and stable conditions to compete, Wang Changshi, what do you think?"
"This..."
