"But it is printed with the words Shuiling Mountain, do you know what Shuiling Mountain means? Now Shuiling Mountain has become half a traitor. The large area behind Shuiling Mountain is enough for Shuiling Mountain to stand on its own and compete with my Qingshui Country. His Majesty asked the Shuiling Mountain to hand over the Qingshuitan Mountain, which is where the qi of the Shuiling Mountain is located. ”

"So, Lord Qi, think about it first, do you think Shui Ling Mountain will choose to hand over Shui Ling Pond to show loyalty to Your Majesty, and for this reason, will you cut off Shui Ling Mountain's luck for tens of millions of years in the future?" The tall old man asked in a deep voice towards the young county commander.

The county guard didn't think of giving up this upright young man at this time, but he had to wake him up, and when he was in the government and the opposition, even if it was a small Jiupin county order, he had to understand a little bit about the way of the court and the opposition.

The county guard does not require the young county magistrate to understand too much, as long as it is enough for him to be in his position and not be blown over by these storms, it is enough.

It's not that the young county magistrate doesn't understand anything, but the truth in his heart is more important than these turmoil, which is a manifestation of integrity.

"I know that there is a saint lord sitting on Shuiling Mountain, and your majesty has to perform a junior salute when he sees the saint master. Where the water spirit mountain qi is extremely located, the sage master will definitely not hand it over easily. The young magistrate replied.

The tall old man nodded with satisfaction, and then asked, "Then do you think Your Majesty will back down?" ”

"Your Majesty represents the majesty of a country, and the so-called monarch has no jokes, so naturally he will not take it back casually." The young magistrate replied again.

"So, what do you think is the chance that Shuiling Mountain will stand on its own?" The tall old man then asked.

Why don't they sit down and talk about it? Regardless of whether Shuiling Mountain stands on its own or not, children must not be without books to read. Even if Shuiling Mountain stands on its own, Baiyang County is still Baiyang County. I don't think the sage will easily seize Baiyang County. The young magistrate replied.

The tall old man shook his head a little helplessly, in the court and the opposition, if you can think like Qi Bai, above the court and the opposition, where can there be so many intrigues, where can there be so many open and dark fights?

The tall old man actually agreed with the young county commander's opinion, but he agreed with you. Now that he is in the position of county guard, it is impossible for him to make such a naïve calculation.

The tall old man now wants to keep Baiyang County and this young man.

If the young man has not been enlightened, he will have to give up.

"Lord Qi, this official will show you a clear way, burn that cart of books, and this official can protect you from being affected by this turmoil. Otherwise, you will really become a victim of this turmoil. The tall old man said in a deep voice.

It doesn't make sense to say it on the side, and it can only be said explicitly.

The tall old man felt that the meaning of his words was already very clear.

"But will this turmoil last for three years, or five years? Or is it longer? Maybe in the future, if you really fight with that sage master, the battlefield will expand to Baiyang County, and Baiyang County will still suffer. But what about the kids in Poplar County? My lord, I know that you have great truth in your chest and great wisdom in your head. But there is only so much that Xia Guan can think of. The young prefectural commander said.

The young county magistrate had no doubt that the tall old man said that as long as the books were burned, the county keeper would be able to protect him.

Although the official position of the county guard is only in the third rank, if he goes to the Hajj to see His Majesty, he will be caught above the court with a large number of ranks higher than him. However, the county guard is the top of the entire county, and he is the feudal official of one side, and the power in his hands is not lower than that of those who are second or even first.

The young county magistrate took office at the age of fifteen, and it has been nearly ten years now, so is it true that he has always been thinking about problems so shallowly? Not necessarily.

It's just that there are some words, and the young county commander feels that he can't say it directly to Lord Taishou, otherwise the whole county will be chaotic.

However, these questions from the young county magistrate completely stopped this tall old man who was several grades higher than him and could even look down on him.

It's such a simple question, which is often easy to answer, but can be difficult to answer. Many of the great truths are further derived from these simple problems.

This conversation between two adults with a huge disparity in rank failed to come to a single conclusion. However, the county keeper also considered some other aspects.

This whole thing, this turmoil, in short, will not be simple.

The tall old man left the county government and stayed temporarily in an inn. Beanie boxes

"Mr. Yu, what do you think?" The county keeper asked the old man beside him, who thought his beard was white and thin.

"My lord, the matter has come to this, the palace must be staring at our Xintian County, this matter must not be ambiguous." The old man, known as Mr. Yu, replied with a slight bow.

"Qi Bai is a good seedling, if he is cultivated well, his future achievements are not under me." Lord Gunjo said again.

"My lord, that's true. However, in the era of stability, Lord Qi was definitely a good county magistrate. However, in this chaotic situation, Lord Qi is not necessarily competent. If he really thinks about one party, he will not do such an abrupt thing without consulting adults at this juncture. Is he really stupid? Not necessarily, after all, he has been in office for more than eight years, although the small county town is well governed, and the people praise it. But his behavior this time may affect the entire Baiyang County, and even Xintian County. The old man said.

The county keeper raised his hand and touched his beard, which made him have the idea of completely giving up this good seedling.

The county keeper felt that what Mr. Yu said was in line with the current form of Xintian County.

"My lord, you love you very much, and this Lord Qi is indeed a good seedling as the Lord said, eight years like a day, one side of the people. It's a pity to give up like that. However, he refuses to think about the overall situation, which is very wrong. What the old man said is just what the old man thinks, if the adults think it is unreasonable, they should listen to it. Mr. Yu said.

Lord Junshou nodded and said, "What Mr. Yu said is reasonable, reasonable!" ”

In another place in Baiyang County, in a simple private school, Mr. Han held a book in his hand and looked at the children sitting in the hall, the children were big and small, the eldest was seven or eight years old, and the youngest was only four or five years old.

But all of them were holding the new books, and they were all full of vitality, their eyebrows fluttering, and their spirits were full of energy.

"If you are prosperous in the future, you must never forget that there is a man named Qi Bai in this world, who has planned to sacrifice his life for you." Mr. Han said silently in his heart.

"Kids, it's class." Mr. Han opened his mouth to speak, and his tone was a little excited.

Perhaps, this may be the last time he will teach.

"Hello Mr. Han!" The children greeted each other neatly.

While he was lecturing, Mr. Han saw a tall old man outside the door, and Mr. Han was about to stop lecturing, when the old man immediately raised his hand towards Mr. Han and made a gesture of you continue.

Mr. Han nodded gratefully and continued to lecture.

Seeing the tall old man standing alone outside the door, watching quietly, Mr. Han felt a lot of emotion.

After class, Mr. Han and the tall old man in a simple robe sat opposite each other in the backyard after the class had changed out of the python robe.

Mr. Han wanted to speak several times, but he didn't know what he had to say first.

"Mr. Han, there has to be someone who is evil." The tall old man said to Mr. Han in advance.

"My lord, I also thought that I would not give any more lectures during this time, after all, it would cause trouble to adults. But when I saw the children's expressions when they got the books, the expectant eyes that looked at me, adults, I couldn't bear it. Mr. Han was unusually moved.

"Mr. Han, you have read countless books and handed over many students. Qi Bai's character, you also know, most of him can't be this villain. Therefore, for the time being, it is up to the gentleman to be the villain. As for the merits and demerits, I think future generations will have their own comments. The tall old man said earnestly.

If he could, the tall old man would rather choose to be this wicked man himself. However, the nature of the two is different.

Looking at Mr. Han, who was moved and did not speak, the tall old man continued: "Maybe in the eyes of the people of Baiyang County and even the children, you are a wicked person for the time being. But they will surely understand in the future that what seems to be a great evil is actually a great good! ”

Mr. Han smiled, very bitter: "It's okay, I'm old, and I don't have much to live." It's good to be a wicked person who offends the people of Baiyang County and Shuiling Mountain. My lord, this wicked man is old and decrepit, can you keep Qi Bai? ”

"I ...... I can guarantee it for the time being, but I can only do my best in the future, and I hope you can understand me, Mr. Han. The tall old man sighed heavily and said.
