Qiu Yizhi saw that Wen Lingjiao didn't apply powder on her face, and she couldn't compare to Wu Ruofei who was like a celestial, but she was also like a heavenly girl who had a unique charm when she descended to earth, and she was a little intoxicated. I also saw that the flowers in the flower garden under my feet were full of chrysanthemums the size of teacups, although they were not as graceful as peonies, not as cold as plum blossoms, and not as noble as hibiscus, but there was an indescribable sense of approachability and pity.

So Qiu Yizhi said: "These chrysanthemums are afraid that they are also unintentionally sown, they will bloom at the right time, and they will not compete with others, and they have a natural taste!" ”

Wen Lingjiao bowed slightly: "I just thought a few flowers were very cute, so I stopped to watch and didn't want to be in a daze." After the adult's pointing, I realized that it was infinitely interesting. The little woman really admires the adult's insight. ”

Qiu Yizhi listened to Wen Lingjiao's unstingy praise, and was overjoyed in his heart, and the resentment accumulated by Zhao Fuyi was even more gone, and he suddenly felt a little fluttering all over his body.

Qiu Yizhi was in this dream-like atmosphere, standing side by side with Wen Lingjiao, although his eyes were fixed on the chrysanthemums all over the ground, his mind was all on Wen Lingjiao beside him.

After being silent absent-mindedly for a long time, Qiu Yizhi finally felt that the atmosphere was a little awkward, pondered for a while, and asked, "I have poor conditions here, Miss Wen is here, is it okay to live here?" ”

Wen Lingjiao nodded and said, "The two wings arranged for me by Gongzi are the most secluded and elegant among the county offices, and there is such a small garden next to them...... In fact, I don't pay much attention to it, and it is very satisfying to be able to sleep peacefully every day and listen to the wind and rain in the morning. ”

Qiu Yizhi's heart moved when he heard this, and he hurriedly said: "Since Miss has this idea, she can naturally live here permanently." Although my side is more bitter, it is extremely peaceful, and I am afraid it is more stable than in the Luoyang Imperial City. ”

Wen Lingjiao seemed noncommittal, pursed her mouth and bit her lower lip, and said the word "yes".

After saying the word "yes", the two didn't know what to say, Gu Du looked at each other without saying a word, only caressing the flowers by the breeze, and nodding his head with the joy of yellow, orange, and white chrysanthemums.

After another half an hour, Qiu Yizhi asked, "Miss Wen, I'm not afraid that you will be presumptuous, I have something I want to ask Miss." ”

Wen Lingjiao didn't dare to turn her head to look at Qiu Yizhi's expression, and secretly glanced at it with her spare eyes, and saw that Qiu Yizhi was also squinting at herself, so she hurriedly moved her eyes back, and a red glow flew on her face, and said, "Childe, just ask......"

Qiu Yizhi nodded, pondered for a while, and said, "What Miss did on this trip is the case of the Fake Tianzun Sect. Now that the initiator Yu Mei has been killed, even the forces of the Jiangnan Tianzun Sect have suffered heavy losses. I wonder what Miss's plans are for the future? ”

Wen Lingjiao listened, her brain was excited, and she didn't answer Qiu Yizhi's words, but said to He'er: "He'er, you go down first, I have something to say to Gongzi, don't eavesdrop on the side." Both his tone and expression were as cold as ice sculptures.

He'er was stunned when she heard this, almost said the word "yes" with a crying voice, wiped her tears and walked down.

Qiu Yizhi was also stunned when he heard this.

She had long known that Wen Lingjiao couldn't trust He'er, and was worried that he was sent by her brother to spy on her, but she didn't expect that such a gentle and kind person as she would say such ruthlessly today, which shows that Wen Lingjiao's suspicion of He'er has reached a very serious point.

Wen Lingjiao waited for He'er to go away, and then she spoke again: "Childe, don't you think I'm too strict with He'er?" ”

Qiu Yizhi heard such a difficult question, and Zhao Fuyi finally felt the dilemma when he faced his questioning.

Suddenly, he remembered what he had just said about "listening to the truth", so he mustered up his courage, looked directly at Wen Lingjiao, frowned and nodded: "It's a bit harsh." Even if He'er is a brother Ling's person, she has grown up with Miss since she was a child, known as a master servant and a sister, so if she attacks her like this, I'm afraid she won't be able to think of doing anything for a while, and she will regret it. ”

"Childe, you are a good person, but it is too easy for a good person to trust others......" said softly, "Childe is also a smart person, and it is too easy for a smart person to believe in himself...... In the future, you have to be careful, be careful of others, and be careful of yourself......"

"Be careful of yourself" Qiu Yizhi understands, but Wen Lingjiao wants to be more cautious in doing things in the future, not to be as dangerous as before, and almost hurt her life.

"Be careful of others" is a difficult problem, and the difficulty is who does this "others" refer to?

Qiu Yizhi was born with a stronger curiosity than ordinary people, and couldn't help but ask: "Miss's words are interesting, but I don't know who to 'be careful' with?" ”

Wen Lingjiao said: "Everyone must be careful, of course the opponent must be careful, even friends cannot be taken lightly......"

"Friends?" Qiu Yizhi thought to herself, "I have a lot of friends, even if I go to Mingzhou this time, won't I also make friends like Li Zhi and Li Shengjie, father and son?" Do they have to be careful? ”

Qiu Yizhi was extremely puzzled, and hurriedly asked: "Who is this 'opponent' in Miss's mouth?" Who is 'friend' referring to? Can you reveal one or two so that you can have a precaution in the future? ”

Wen Lingjiao didn't answer, and said with a smile: "Didn't Gongzi ask me what my future plans are?" It's all my fault for taking the topic away. ”

Qiu Yizhi knew that although Wen Lingjiao had a tactful temperament, she was also a person who ate soft rather than hard—the deep meaning of her words might be able to ask sideways in the future, but it would be counterproductive to force her to ask now—so he didn't dwell on the topic before, and followed Wen Lingjiao's words and said: "Yes, I and Mr. Lin have talked to Miss before, and I always feel that Tianzun Sect is not a long-term plan, and Miss should make plans as soon as possible." ”

Wen Lingjiao let out a long sigh of relief and sighed: "Why did I spend the lotus just now, just to say these words to my son." In the past few days, I have seen through it and thought it through - for more than two hundred years in the Han Dynasty, and even thousands of years before the founding of the Han Dynasty, the Central Plains have been based on Confucianism. Even if the teachings of our holy religion are considerable, they are also contrary to Confucianism everywhere, and if the people are forcibly changed their beliefs, it is difficult to ascend to heaven. The devotion of the Holy Religion believers is said to be one after the other, but if they really want him to abandon his wife and children and stay away from his parents to follow the Holy Religion, how many can do it? ”

Qiu Yizhi listened to Wen Lingjiao's words, although she did not have doubts or denials about the teachings of the Tianzun Sect, but she also really felt the dissatisfaction with the Middle Earth culture. Wen Lingjiao, the saint woman under one person and above ten thousand people in the sect, has such a change in consciousness, and it is not in vain that Qiu Yizhi has discussed the teachings of the Tianzun Sect with her several times before.

So Qiu Yizhi asked tentatively: "According to what Miss Wen said, is it because you don't want to be the saint of this Tianzun Sect?" ”

Wen Lingjiao nodded: "If you want to say that Tianzun's teachings are unfathomable. I was obsessed with the Holy Religion before, and I have already committed the 'foolish' vow, which is not tolerated by the Holy Religion, and this Holy Maiden is indeed not qualified to go now. ”

Although the semantics of Wen Lingjiao's words were a little pathetic, the tone was extremely firm, obviously the result of her careful consideration.

Therefore, Qiu Yizhi was very happy in his heart, and hurriedly said: "This is very good, this is very good." It also lived up to my excuse for Miss Wen several times in front of the emperor and Master Zhongli. Since Miss Wen doesn't want to be this saint anymore, and the emperor has already said that she wants to exempt Miss Wen from her sins, then I will go to the table and ask the emperor to issue a clear decree......"

"No, no." Wen Lingjiao said, "I used to believe in Tianzun with a solid heart, and now I don't mean anything hypocritical. The word 'faith' is originally a matter of the spirit of a thought, so why do you need the emperor to be sure of it? ”

Qiu Yizhi heard Wen Lingjiao's words, her face suddenly turned stunned, and she hurriedly said: "Miss Wen's words are really self-conscious, and it seems that she is just a layman." However, although there is no such high level as Miss in the next, she can't do ordinary things to invite merit and rewards. The whereabouts of Miss's brother and the situation of the backbone of your sect, I will not ask Miss, and please rest assured Miss Wen. ”

Wen Lingjiao listened, her heart was excited, and she also saluted Qiu Yizhi, and said, "Then thanks to Gongzi." ”

The two of them are one and the other is squatting, just like the "husband and wife worship" when the newcomers get married, so ashamed that the faces of the two of them are red at the same time, and they quickly get up, but they are uncomfortable all over their bodies, and their hands look extremely awkward no matter where they hang down.

At this moment, a sparrow flew down from the towering canopy of the camphor tree, swept the ground and flew in front of Qiu Yi's body, chirped happily, flapped its wings, and flew into the sky again, disappearing into the blue and immaculate sky.

Qiu Yizhi suddenly touched the scene and said: "Miss Wen is now out of school, both physically and mentally like a bird, free and unrestrained, now the sea and the sky are vast, it really makes me envious!" ”

Wen Lingjiao smiled slightly: "Why does the son have to be like this? With the great talent of the son, since he does not want to be an official, the Qipin County Order of Shanyin County is naturally not in the eyes of the son, why not get out and travel all over the world, which is also a great pleasure in his life! I'm willing...... Willing to accompany the son, indulge in the mountains and rivers, and choose a place with beautiful mountains and rivers when you are sleepy, or live in seclusion on an overseas island, and cultivate and weave by yourself, which is also a special interest. ”

Qiu Yizhi heard Wen Lingjiao's words, and his heart was already moved.

When he first met Wen Lingjiao in Guangyang City, he was moved by her fairy-like demeanor, and although there was a separation, he was always haunted by his dreams and could not forget it for a moment. At this moment, Wen Lingjiao is obviously inviting Qiu Yizhi to spend the rest of his life together, how can he not let his heart bloom?

Qiu Yizhi looked at Wen Lingjiao's face as calm as a wave of clear water, and almost immediately agreed, but he used all his strength to sigh and said, "Why don't you want to hang up the seal and go away?" It's really the emperor's favor, and it's hard to brush your sleeves in Nanshan! ”

"Today's emperor was originally a vassal king of the border, and today he can face the south and back to the north in the Forbidden City, at least half of the credit is due to the prince. Others don't know, don't I know? If it weren't for the rescue of the prince who regarded death as home, maybe the emperor would have died in the prison of the Criminal Department. Gongzi has made such a great contribution to the emperor, isn't it enough to repay the kindness? Wen Lingjiao said.

Qiu Yizhi sighed again: "Not only the emperor, but also Master Zhongli, my third brother, the eldest brother and the second brother are the same, they are both kind to me, and they have not yet ended." And these ten or twenty of my brothers, if I are gone, how will they be with themselves? ”

Wen Lingjiao gritted her teeth hard, plucked up the courage of her life and said, "Can't the son ignore these false names?" Just for ...... Just for me......"
