Chapter 392: Silver Kettle

"Don't! - Xue Shao shouted, and everyone was startled.

Princess Taiping didn't really get in, but ...... See blood!

Everyone was so frightened that they fell to their knees, leaving Xue Shao standing alone, his eyes wide and stiff.

"Promise me, hurry up and promise me!" Princess Taiping breathed sharply and said loudly, "Promise me to stay here obediently and wait for me to come back!" ”

"Okay, okay, I promise you......" Xue Shao nodded repeatedly, "You put down the hairpin quickly." ”

"Don't worry, as long as you wait here for me to make a mistake, I won't do anything stupid." Princess Taiping put away the hairpin and said loudly: "Yang Siqiao, you take half of the Yu Guards to accompany Xue Juma here." Linlang led the eunuchs and the rest of the Yulin army, and immediately returned to Beijing with the palace! The rest of the people are waiting here! No one is allowed to leave this place without permission! Violators, beheaded! ”

"Yes!"

At the sound of an order, the entire Yaochi Yulin moved.

Xue Shao slapped his palm heavily on his forehead and scolded angrily, "I'm cāo!! ”

"Xue Lang, wait for me, you must wait for me to come back!"

After Princess Taiping said this, she turned around and lifted her skirt and ran away. Linlang chased after her and hurriedly shouted, "Your Highness, wait, wipe the blood stains first and then apply some medicine......"

Princess Taiping got into the carriage without looking back, and the car immediately set off and left Yaochi Yulin.

Xue Shao sat on the stone bench and looked at the waning moon in the sky in a daze, speechless for a long time. Yang Siqiao and the fifty armor soldiers surrounded him in the center, but they didn't dare to do anything disrespectful to him, but they just surrounded him and didn't leave.

At this moment, there was only one thought left in Xue Shao's heart: all my previous efforts were about to be ruined. Ruined by love, ruined by my trust in Princess Taiping, ruined by my rashness and naivety.

Enron, this time, I finally saw your persistence and fanaticism for the love between us! But what will be the consequences of your love for me? Could it be that Fu Nian is doomed to death, the Turkic Khanate is destined to make a comeback, and the wheel of history is destined to be unable to change the original trajectory?

Thinking of this, Xue Shao was anxious in his heart, and stood up suddenly.

Yang Siqiao suddenly jumped out like a cheetah and stood in front of Xue Shao, "Childe, please don't make it difficult for the villain!" ”

Xue Shao gritted his teeth, snorted, and walked towards his room with his sleeves stroking.

Yang Siqiao and those armor soldiers followed step by step, as if they were facing a great enemy. Xue Shao entered the room and slammed the door shut, Yang Siqiao took a breath and wiped a cold sweat, and immediately divided the fifty armor soldiers into three teams, taking turns to guard outside Xue Shao's door.

The room was dark, Xue Shao lay on the bed and looked at the ceiling in a daze, silent for a long time.

The soldiers outside the house, including Yang Siqiao, Xue Shao was sure to get rid of them and escape, and then ...... The question is, then what?

Princess Taiping's fierceness, Xue Shao saw it today. When she stabbed her neck with a hairpin, Xue Shao was really frightened. Even when facing the siege of countless enemies on the battlefield, Xue Shao had never felt so frightened.

What if he escapes and catches up with Princess Taiping? She was so determined to do something, could she stop it?

"Hey......" Xue Shao couldn't help but sigh, "This maybe, it's really fate!" ”

"Bang bang", there was a knock on the door.

Xue Shao's heart moved slightly, who would knock on my door in the middle of the night. Listening to the movement, it looks like a woman.

"Who?"

"Poor Dao Xuanyunzi, I am willing to ask Xue Gongzi to show up."

Xue Shao blinked, at this time, what did she do when she came to see me?

After getting up and dressing up, Xue Shao stepped forward to open the door. Xuan Yunzi stood at the door in white clothes and bowed, and Yang Siqiao and those guards stood at the door of the small courtyard with their backs to the two of them.

Xuan Yunzi looked at Xue Shao and smiled slightly, and a delicate silver wine jug appeared in his hand like a trick, "The night is beautiful, how about Poor Daoyang invite Gongzi to enjoy the moon together?" ”

Xue Shao walked out of the room and looked up, "It's just a waning moon, what's there to appreciate?" ”

"There are clouds in the Book of Changes, the sun is in the middle of the day, and the moon is eclipsed. If you don't appreciate the withering of the waning moon, how can you know the fullness of the full moon? Xuan Yunzi deftly turned around and stood beside Xue Shao, made a gesture to welcome Xue Shao out, and motioned for him to sit in this courtyard and admire the moon.

"Immortal estimate, are you here to give a lecture to Xue? I'm afraid it's a pity, I have never read such a profound and mysterious thing as the Book of Changes. Xue Shao sat down calmly and invited her to sit opposite him.

"No, no!" Xuan Yunzi thanked him and sat down opposite Xue Shao, and said with a smile, "The middle of the day is bright, the moon is eclipsed, the sky and the earth are empty, and the news is in time, and what about people?" ”

Xue Shao's heart froze slightly, "Immortal estimate, what do you mean?" ”

Xuan Yunzi smiled silently, took out two silver wine glasses and poured a glass for Xue Shao, "Childe, please." ”

Xue Shao picked up the wine glass and drank it all, and then was stunned.

"Water?"

Xuan Yunzi still smiled indifferently, "Poor Dao only said that he would invite his son to admire the moon, but he never said that he would invite his son to drink." ”

Xue Shao put the cup down, his heart was depressed, and his expression was very helpless, "It seems that today is really not a good day." ”

"Childe forgive your sins, Poor Dao didn't mean to ridicule you." Xuanyunzi gave a salute and said, "If the moon is full, it will be lacking, in the middle of the day, if it is full, it will be overflowing. Nothing is perfect forever. In the same way, no one will be unlucky all the time. The poor road uses clear water to play the son, and gives the last trace of bad luck to the son. Perhaps, it is time to come to the end of the day. ”

"Then, take your good words." Xue Shao replied indifferently. Xue Shao really didn't have much interest in the mysterious things that these Taoist priests were talking about.

"Childe, why don't you believe in the poor way?" Xuan Yunzi looked at Xue Shao with blazing eyes.

Xue Shaozhen couldn't cry or laugh a little, and almost said: Believe you, are you Brother Chun?

Xuan Yunzi obviously sensed the anxiety and impatience in Xue Shao's heart, but her expression was still very calm, and she poured another glass of water for Xue Shao and quietly handed it to him.

Xue Shao didn't look at the wine glass, but stared at Xuan Yunzi, "I'm not thirsty." ”

"When a senior brother traveled to the Western Regions, he learned the method of making wine from the Hu people. This is the wine he made himself after returning to Middle-earth, and he invited his son to taste it. Xuan Yunzi said.

Xue Shao frowned, Uncle is in a bad mood today, dare to trick me again, let you look good!

As soon as he picked up the glass, Xue Shao noticed something strange - the cup was indeed not filled with water, but a fragrant blue wine!

Xue Shao glanced at the silver wine jug, presumably there was a mechanism in it that could control the separate flow of water and wine.

Without thinking much about it, Xue Shao drank the wine.

"Good wine!" He sighed heartily and turned his head to look at Xuan Yunzi, "Fairy Gu came to me in the middle of the night just to make me happy with a trick?" ”

Xuan Yunzi smiled quietly and shook his head.

"...... that?"

Xuan Yunzi smiled and said: "This silver kettle in the hand of Poor Dao, at first the prince thought that it was filled with wine, but what was poured out was water; When Childe decided that it was filled with water, he poured out the wine. Childe, what do you think? ”

"Charlatans." Xue Shao said indifferently and quietly.

Xuan Yunzi smiled, "Gongzi's wisdom is as deep as the sea, but he refuses to reveal it." Anyway, since the son has understood, the poor road will no longer be axe-free. ”

Xue Shao smiled slightly and did not refute.

For the first time, Xue Shao felt a hint of fun talking to Xuan Yunzi. This young little Taoist aunt is more intelligent than the word Zhuji, as if she will not do anything without a boundless purpose.

The silver shell is poured out of the water, which is unfathomable. This is not like a person in officialdom, and he can only speculate and guess about the changes in the current situation and the mentality of the peak. Especially when standing on the watershed of heavy victory and defeat, one step to the left is an abyss and one step to the right, such a thing is really common!

Xue Shao himself is now facing such a situation. secretly supported Xue Yuanchao and Pei Yan to fight, and if he succeeded, he reversed the political situation and changed history, and if he lost, he had nothing or even turned over.

In an instant, Xue Shao suddenly realized! …… Pei Yan thinks that he has the chance to win, and I believe that my political views are completely correct. Both of us, as I was before, were as sure as I was about wine or water. The second saint, like Xuanyunzi just now, is the one holding the silver kettle, and in the end, whether the pot pours water or wine is poured out is all in their thoughts, not how Pei Yan and I guess!

The court is still the court, and the two saints are still the two saints. A qiē is all in their grasp. All the other people are like gamblers involved in gambling who are hoarsely trying to buy big and small. The final victory or defeat is only in the hands of the dealer - the two saints.

Xue Shao picked up the empty wine glass that had been drunk and handed it to Xuan Yunzi, "Please Immortal Gu, give me another glass of grape wine." ”

Xuan Yunzi smiled slightly, and poured Xue Shao a full glass of blue wine with his bare hands, and at the same time poured himself a full glass.

"Poor Dao, respect Gongzi!"

"Fairy Gu, please!"

After drinking a cup, most of the depression in Xue Shao's heart dissipated. Turning his eyes to look at Xuan Yunzi, he felt more and more that this woman was extremely intelligent, and it was really not simple.

Perhaps the miserable experience when he was young and the special life in the Forbidden Palace in his early years allowed Xuanyunzi to cultivate an extraordinary mind that ordinary people can hardly have.

"The dragon and the phoenix among the sons will become great sooner or later. Why bother to stick to the gains and losses of one thing, the victory or defeat of a moment? Xuan Yunzi smiled and said, "Small wins rely on wisdom, big wins rely on virtue, isn't this what Gongzi often says?" ”

Xue Shao was slightly stunned, "Where did you hear that?" ”

"Childe, have you forgotten that when you were in Bingzhou before, you were a guest at my senior brother's thatched house with Guo Yuanzhen and Xue Chuyu?" Xuan Yunzi smiled, "Childe once blurted out when he was chatting. Maybe the speaker was unintentional, but the poor listener was intentional and thought it was a witty sentence, so he kept it in mind. ”

Xue Shao couldn't help but feel a little sad in her heart, she was so careful! …… Meticulous and insightful, such words seem to be born for Xuanyunzi.

"It's getting late, and the poor road will no longer bother." Xuan Yunzi stood up, looked up at the bright moon above his head, and smiled at Xue Shaoji: "It is very fortunate to be able to enjoy the waning moon and drink wine with Gongzi. Leave! ”

"Fairy Gu, please." Xue Shao bowed back, and understood in his heart that Xuan Yunzi was hinting that "the bright moon has its own shortcomings", and the unpleasant things will pass sooner or later, so there must be no danger, so there is no need to worry too much.

Xuanyunzi floated away, but did not take the silver wine jug with him.

Xue Shao picked up the flask and poured a glass into the cup himself, but it was water. Try again, it's still water.

He simply pulled out the lid of the flask and poured out all the contents, only to find that it was all water!

Xue Shao couldn't help but be a little stunned, this little trick was played beautifully!
