Chapter 59-1: Shen Lun (I)
Sure enough, when the old man and An Yuanxi saw my hair, their faces changed color. An Yuanxi's eyes were shocked and incredulous, and the old man looked at me with a solemn face: "Girl, what's the matter?" ”
"My new hairstyle, isn't it?" I joked a little weakly, seeing that the faces of the two of them still did not improve, thinking that sooner or later they would know about this from the outside, it was impossible to prevaricate, and turned my head to let the waiting maids exit the flower hall, and when there were only three of us left in the room, I said softly: "Grandpa, I need a way to dispel the unfavorable rumors outside." ”
"You told me the other day that you were going to make a good show for King Jing, that's what you mean." The old man frowned, and there was still disapproval in his eyes. An Yuan looked at me steadily, the pain and struggle in his eyes made me dare not look deeply. I took a breath: "I just had a vague idea at the time, and I only thought about it in the past two days, in fact, I can't guarantee that it will succeed, because I may not have a good opportunity to implement this idea, but it seems that I am lucky......"
"Nonsense!" The old man said angrily, "Do you know what it means to break your hair? ”
"I know, Grandpa." These ancient people really didn't pay much attention to hair. I met his angry gaze helplessly: "Grandpa, I don't want Nuo'er to suffer a trace of grievances, Nuo'er has a chaste mother, and no one will spread those unbearable rumors in the future, it will only be good for Nuo'er......"
"But what about yourself?" An Yuan suddenly let out a sigh of remorse, "Don't you think about yourself?" ”
The old man turned his head to look at him, he felt his gaffe, but he didn't have time to retract the pain in his eyes, the old man's eyes glanced at me lightly, I smiled, and said calmly: "I'm just thinking about myself, I am living for Nuo'er, Nuo'er is my life, my everything, if Nuo'er is not good, I will not be good." ”
An Yuanxi's body trembled slightly, and his eyes were dead. I lowered my eyelids and heard the old man say calmly, "That's fine, although your method is a little intense, it is indeed the most effective. Let's not talk about it, let's eat. ”
I don't know if the old man's "effective" refers to breaking the rumors outside, or cutting off the love in An Yuanxi's heart, in my opinion, I am afraid that the latter is the majority. With a faint smile, I picked up the chopsticks, thought about it, looked up and said, "Grandpa, is the Yun family in the Chenxing Kingdom and the Yaoyue Kingdom having a secret stake?" ”
"How?" The old man looked at me quietly, and I told him about the meeting with Ouray, and then told my suspicions. The old man and An Yuanxi glanced at each other, and said in a deep voice: "What do you mean, is there something big happening in Chenxing Country?" ”
"I just think that using the national strength of the Chenxing Kingdom to provoke two powerful countries at the same time is an act of looking for death." I frowned, "That's unusual." ”
"No matter how unusual it is, it has nothing to do with our Yun family." The old man smiled, "Girl, do you think it is so easy to cultivate a dark pile?" What benefits can the Yun family gain by taking great pains to cultivate dark piles in other countries? When the pay and the return are not equal, it is a failure of the investment, and if it is completely irrelevant, it is a waste. ”
"Oh." I picked up the chopsticks again, thinking about it, thinking about the time and space in my previous life, there were quite a lot of spy systems in the past dynasties, and it seems that the external ones only began to exist after the establishment of this dynasty, right? After taking a chopstick of shiitake mushrooms, I raised my head again: "So, can you help me verify whether the Marti tribe has really been wiped out?" I'm a little worried about the Danny siblings going back......"
"Girl, you have less heart, everyone has their own fate, you can't protect everyone by your side for a lifetime." The old man shook his head, "When it's time to let go, you have to let go, if you don't fall, you won't grow big." He looked up at me again and said cautiously, "Even to Nuo'er, you can't guard him for a lifetime, you have to remember that a loving mother is a failure." ”
The old man's words hit me like a baton, and I was startled, and I realized that I did have the mentality of an old hen protecting her chicks towards Noor. I only heard the old man continue: "People often say that 'you can't be rich for three generations', but do you know why the Yun family is not only rich for three generations, but also prosperous from generation to generation?" ”
"Because the parents of the Yun family have a keen grasp of politics and do not spoil their children and grandchildren, and there is ......" I thought of the cruel internal competition mechanism of the Yun family, bit my lip, and said, "Let the children and grandchildren always maintain a sense of crisis and cultivate their ability to deal with things." ”
Think about it, the old man seems to follow this set to me, what I do, he never interferes, it is wrong, as long as I can learn a lesson, he never says anything about me. The old man looked at me and smiled: "It's easy to say, but it's hard to do." The family is big, the position is high and powerful, the children and grandchildren take it for granted that they have privileges, and the family has the family to do the wrong thing, and there is a capable mother to help him settle the situation, if he doesn't know that everything can only be obtained through his own efforts, it is good to die in three generations. It was rare for the old man to say so many words at one time, he stopped and took a breath, and said: "If you want to cultivate the successor of the family, you must also cultivate his leadership ability, which is reflected in the ability to communicate with the people, not only to know the situation in the court, but also to let him have a deep understanding of the lower class, and not to confine his vision and mind in a small circle." ”
"Ye'er understood." I didn't expect that the old man would have such an advanced and enlightened concept, which is comparable to the way Western countries educate their children in my previous life, and I was a little embarrassed for a while. There are so many things I have to learn, is this how the old man taught Izumo Zheng? Thinking of my Yun Zheng, who is so smart and excellent, and has such a mind, his eyes are slightly hot. For the first time, I sincerely admired the old man, and for the first time I felt that the old man was kind and amiable. The old man smiled and said gently, "Let's eat." ”
The meal was very warm, and although the old man only ordered it, I could understand his painstaking efforts. An Yuanxi's gaze fell on my face from time to time, and I pretended not to see it, and laughed with the old man. After dinner, An Yuanxi sent the old man back to the room, and I went back to the room, first to see Nuo'er, looking at his cute little face, stunned. Nu'er, I just wanted you to grow up peacefully and happily, and I didn't want you to be like your father, who was overwhelmed by the burden of the Yun family, so I tried my best to shelter you from the wind and rain, but now that I think about it, isn't it necessarily right for me to do all this? You are a descendant of the Yun family, since you have inherited this surname, you are destined to assume the responsibilities and obligations of the Yun family, if you are destined to be the patriarch of the Yun family, and you are destined to become the next generation of Yongle Hou, is it not from now on, my way of doing things should have some changes?
At night, Xiaohong served me to wash up, closed the door and exited. After my eyes got better, I refused to let Xiaohong sleep in my room again, Xiaohong began to refuse, I quietly told her that my eyes were fine, Xiaohong still didn't believe it, and later I proved to her that my eyes were really good, so I persuaded her. Lying on the bed, tossing and turning, I couldn't sleep, thinking about what happened in the daylight, my hand reached to the pillow, took out the bronze mirror in the brocade box, and stroked the pattern on the frame in the dark, stunned.
