Chapter 70: The Ups and Downs of Life (181/493)

Outside the eaves, the wind and snow were dashing, and Li Hansheng, who was dressed in a literary robe, sat on a chair with a waveless expression, looking at the snowflakes falling outside the living room.

Cold, cold.

The name Li Hansheng now makes countless wolf guards and Jianghu people frightened, but when the parents took this name, it was just because the poor people didn't pay attention to it, and the one born in winter was called Hansheng.

Waiting for Xu Buling's short leisure, Li Hansheng looked at the snowflakes outside and recalled the past forty years.

The first time he saw snow in his life, it was in a small village in the poor countryside, his family was surrounded by walls, he was hungry, his parents were simple and fed, and sent him to the only private school in the small county town.

'The rich don't need to buy good land, there are thousands of bells in the book. There is no need to erect tall buildings to live in peace, and there is a golden house in the book. ’

The meaning is very simple, as long as you study hard, you can eat enough and live in an impermeable house.

Li Hansheng is not smart and clever, but he is very hardworking, he passed the county examination and the hospital examination at a young age, and was admitted to Xiucai, and he is also a little famous in ten miles and eight townships, but it is a pity that after a famine, there is only one Xiucai identity left, and there is nothing else beside him.

The second time it snowed, I arrived at the Sun family's shop in Chang'an City.

At that time, he was not yet twenty, and he waited again and again for the next spring, and then fell off the list and started all over again.

When he was sitting in the bluestone alley and was about to starve to death, a middle-aged man passed by with two jars of wine and said:

"Go to the shop to warm up?"

He was angry at the time, and replied: "Die of hunger and don't eat the food that comes from it, and don't drink the water of the stolen spring when you die of thirst." ”

The shopkeeper scolded him: "Whoever gives it to you for nothing, you owe favors and have to pay it back." ”

After that, he became a shopkeeper in Sun's shop, selling wine during the day and studying at night, but he still failed the imperial examination, and he owed more and more favors, but fortunately, he did not starve to death on the street.

The days that followed passed quickly, accompanied by beautiful women, playing in the world, getting married and having daughters, and having a happy family......

Then, somehow, on another snowy day, he stood in front of a small grave, and behind him was a cottage in ruins.

He was alone and alone, just like the first time he set foot on the road to Beijing with a package on his back, the future was ethereal, and his back was desolate.

After that, I can't remember clearly, maybe I don't want to remember, or I'm dead, and the things I think about and do are just walking dead to make up for the past, and he doesn't know until the day it will last, maybe until the day when the eyes are closed......

Stomp –

Footsteps sounded from outside the door, Xu Buling appeared at the door, his eyes showed a bit of surprise, raised his hand and said:

"Your Excellency?"

Li Hansheng retracted his mind and said calmly: "Xu Shizi, we have met on the second day of the winter month. ”

Xu Buling was afraid that he was a confidant of King Wu, and originally wanted to pretend not to know, but when he heard this, he smiled lightly, raised his hand to let the maid who served tea and water retreat, entered the living room alone, sat down on the main seat, and said with a smile:

"Your Excellency won't be Li Hansheng, right?"

Li Hansheng took out the jade from his sleeve and put it on the tea table: "I thought you had already seen it." ”

Xu Buling has such speculation, but he can't confirm it. Seeing that this handsome middle-aged scholar was really Ning Qingye's father, his eyes were slightly complicated.

In Xu Buling's impression, Li Hansheng's evaluation was not very good. Abandoning his wife and daughter, his methods are ruthless, and he was nicknamed 'Poisoner' by the Investigation Department, which is very different from the Sword Saint Zhu Liu. Moreover, Ning Qingye was an official with this one-minded mind, and finally ended up hating his father who was separated from his wife, and it was obviously not advisable to climb relatives on the spot, and it was not appropriate to look at each other coldly, so he didn't know how to treat it for a while.

"It turned out to be the owner of the building, and I have admired the name for a long time, and I am fortunate to meet it."

Li Hansheng didn't react to this compliment, but said softly:

"I'm here to persuade you not to meddle in King Wu's affairs. You can quickly hand over the jade artifact, and eavesdrop outside the observation deck, you must have gotten a lot of news. It's best to stop here and go back and see what happens, if you have to find out, it's not good for you or me. ”

Seeing that Li Hansheng was so honest, Xu Buling smiled lightly: "My Xu family is full of loyalty, and when I understand this kind of thing, if I don't get to the bottom of it, I'm sorry for the Song family...... Your Excellency, at least, give me a thorough understanding, right? ”

Li Hansheng shook his head: "If you enter too early, there will be no benefit, it will only be bad." You think that jumping out of Chang'an's chessboard is a leap from the sea, but you don't know that you have already fallen into another chessboard. The old master of Yuelu Mountain, only has chess pieces in his hands, he never treats people as people, you make a wrong step, and the end is worse than Song Ji, quit now, and move when the time comes, but you can gain more things at the end. ”

Xu Buling frowned slightly, pondered these words for a moment, and said softly:

"What is that old gentleman playing?"

"The world will be divided for a long time, he seeks to unify the world, it doesn't matter who is the emperor, you are valued now, just because you have the greatest opportunity now, just like the previous Song Ji, once you lose power, you will become an outcast on the spot, do you think that if you marry his granddaughter, he will be able to favor you more than half a point?"

When Xu Buling heard this, he chuckled:

"If you come here and use counter-scheming to sow discord, please come back."

Li Hansheng smiled faintly: "The road is taken by yourself, it is useless to talk more, you can do it yourself." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he stood up and walked out the door.

Xu Buling looked at Li Hansheng's back, thought for a while, and said softly:

"Ning Qingye is here with me, does Your Excellency not know, or don't you want to ask?"

Li Hansheng paused, raised his eyes to look at the snowflakes outside, didn't say anything, walked out of the living room, and disappeared into the courtyard in a flash.

Xu Buling didn't see Li Hansheng's thoughts, so he could only shake his head and sigh.

After Li Hansheng left, Xu Buling sat on the Taishi chair, rubbing his fingers against the teacup, and his eyebrows frowned and thought for a moment.

In fact, he also saw that Grandpa Fu Bao had a very high vision, jumped out of the Three Realms and was not in the Five Elements, and his speech and demeanor were not mixed with the slightest emotion, so that when he spoke, he felt a little like walking on thin ice.

Li Hansheng's words no matter what the purpose is, but it is obviously a little reasonable, if Grandpa Fu Bao only has the world in his eyes, then he is also Song Ji or not, they are just chess pieces on the chessboard, there are strong and weak, support the strong and eat the weak, just like raising Gu, and finally only one co-master of the world is left.

He now has a chance of success, so he will tilt resources to him, but if someone more suitable than him appears, it is likely to become a stepping stone for others.

However, Grandpa Fu Bao is obviously not a big villain, but he stands too high, and his way of thinking is different from that of mortals like them, so if he has to find an adjective, it is estimated that only 'those who achieve great things are not informal'.

Since the day Song Ji lowered the lock dragon Gu to raise the butcher knife, King Xu You of Su has drawn a clear line with the Song family from the bottom of his heart, and for the stability of future generations and future generations, sooner or later there will be a day when the sword and soldiers will meet.

Xu Buling doesn't like to fight very much, but this kind of thing is the same as people who can't help themselves in the rivers and lakes, and it is not something that can be influenced by personal thoughts at all.

So in the face of Fubao's grandfather's inquiry, Xu Buling replied:

'There is no need to get wealth, and there is no need to avoid difficulties. ’

After learning about these messy news, Xu Buling had a premonition that the world was about to start to be chaotic, but before the big waves rose, he couldn't see that the wind came from.

Xu Buling looked at the calm Hangzhou City outside the living room, and after thinking for a long time, he just sighed softly. In any case, I have to go back to Huainan first and settle my wives well, I can't stay in Jiangnan and watch the chaos in the world, so don't think about going back when the time comes......
