[Chapter 12: Mu Xiu will be destroyed by the forest wind] (2)

-->

Do some of King Shen's relatives really have so many things to ask? Why can't you do it yourself, why do you have to ask others, why do you have to have some things that you can live well when you are poor, and now you have to have them?

It boils down to one thing: Is there such a person in this world?

Xiao Jiangyuan has been in the palace since he was a child, and he has been in the court for five years when he was a child, and he can't remember many things. After that, he was taken by Shangguan Wan'er, and then he followed Empress Zetian to serve, and now he is standing by Li Longji's side, and it has been nearly fifteen years. In the past fifteen years, she has been in contact with royal relatives and nobles or children of families, although she has also been out of the palace, but she has been haunted in Xishi, Qujiangchi and other lively and prosperous places, such insatiable and ugly people, let alone seeing, she has never even heard of it.

This question is probably very simple for her Ah Lang...... Then she still didn't mention it to him, and thought about it herself.

When he returned to his residence, Xiao Jiangyuan sat in a daze, and after a while, he saw Jingzhong come back. She called Jing Zhong into the house, thinking that her apprentice should not laugh at herself, so she briefly told Jing Zhong about the question in her heart, and then Jing Zhong said unexpectedly: "There will be such people in this world, and the disciples can see a lot before they enter the palace." When they are often poor, they are not as honest as Master thinks, and once they are rich and expensive, they are even more shallow. A lot of things, they don't want because they want them, but they think that they should be theirs. If something is asked of you, you should be honored because they have not asked for anyone else. If you satisfy them, they will not necessarily be grateful, but if you are not satisfied, they will not only have a lot of unpleasant things to say to you, to others, but even to hate. I don't know why they are like this, but I know that there are many people in this world who, no matter what happens, will not become like them, just like Master. ”

Jing Zhong talked endlessly when he mentioned this kind of person, which showed that he had been disgusted with him for a long time. As he spoke, he saw that the master's face was gradually darkening, and he thought that he had said too much and made the master unhappy, so he hurriedly finished it briefly, and sweetened his mouth when he was about to leave.

As everyone knows, Xiao Jiangyuan just fell into deep thought. Jing Zhong's final compliment was a fact that even she recognized herself, so she didn't react to it.

Jing Zhong had only been by Xiao Jiangyuan's side for a long time, and he still couldn't figure out her habits. He thought he was too stupid, but in fact, this was also related to Xiao Jiangyuan's own lack of common sense many times. At this time, ordinary masters would laugh and say a word of disgust, and the matter would pass, but Xiao Jiangyuan didn't say anything, which made Jingzhong even more at a loss.

The room was quiet for a long time before Jing Zhong tentatively spoke: "Master...... Why did you remember to ask this today? ”

Xiao Jiangyuan came back to his senses: "I happened to meet it today, and I didn't understand it very well, so I asked." ”

"Who is it? Did that person surprise Master? Is Master angry? When Jing Zhong heard this, he became anxious.

Xiao Jiangyuan saw that Jing Zhong reacted so much, and he was concerned about himself in and out of his words, so he smiled lightly: "They can't come to me suddenly, and they won't be angry." ”

"That master is so obsessed with ......"

"I just can't figure it out, but after listening to what you just said, I seem to understand a little bit......"

Jing Zhong quietly breathed a sigh of relief, and had the courage to laugh: "It turns out that there are things in the world that the master doesn't understand......"

At first, he really felt that his master was erudite and omnipotent, and nothing could stump her, and that she was good-looking and tall, trustworthy, and could be relied on. Today, however, he found that even he knew what the Master was at a loss, and he didn't realize that he was about to start re-examining his young Master.

"Of course. There are so many people and so many things in this world, how can I understand them in detail and clearly? ”

"That'...... What about the question I asked Master earlier? ”

Xiao Jiangyuan thought about Li Longji's method for a while, and said, "When you are in a high position, you will be able to know the secret." ”

After speaking, Xiao Jiangyuan changed his clothes and set off to watch Li Longji for the night, leaving Jingzhong alone in the room. She didn't see Jing Zhong's unpredictable expression, nor did she hear him whisper meaningfully: "Does this mean...... As long as I am in high position, my power can override the law......"

This question cannot be asked any further.

Li Longji stayed at the Lizheng Hall tonight. As soon as Xiao Jiangyuan entered the hall, he felt that the atmosphere was not quite right. As far as the eye can see, the palace attendants are silent, and the hall is so quiet that even the sound of the curtain sweeping the ground with the wind can be heard clearly.

Seeing that Xiao Neijian had arrived, the palace attendants in the palace breathed a sigh of relief. The leading Yang Siqiao happened to take advantage of the situation to change shifts with Xiao Jiangyuan, and his steps were much brisker. Xiao Jiangyuan hurriedly asked in a low voice, and then listened to Yang Sixuan: "Someone just played, saying that the hero was dissatisfied with everyone, and everyone has already ordered to be taken into custody." ”

To tell the truth, the heroes followed Li Longji all the way through five levels and six generals, and finally supported Li Longji to sit firmly on the throne of the emperor. Whether it is tortuous or not, if you only look at the results, it is not too much for them to be cold to Li Longji, and even resentful.

Not to mention them, the officials and eunuchs in the court, the Confucian people in the people, there are also some sympathizers for them, but most of them just take it to the bottom of their hearts, and when they think about it, they sigh and sigh secretly. It has almost become a common practice for heroes to be arrogant and domineering in the past dynasties, even if a few are not like this, it is difficult for them to be convincing when they suddenly rise from a small official to a high position, so even if they are sympathetic, they are just sympathy.

Among the heroes of the past dynasties, the unfortunate dead also abound. It's not because the emperor is thirsty for killing, but because the existence of heroes poses a threat to the throne. Many heroes have made great contributions to the emperor by themselves, and they think that they have no worries in their lives, and no one can stop them as they want, and they can even share power with the emperor and share the country - this is one of the taboos of the emperor.

Li Longji was somewhat ashamed of these heroes, but he thought that he was by no means harsh. He deposed them and took back their power because most of them were not suitable to be prime ministers, and they were suspected of fornicating with princes; Little by little, he took back the food he had given them, because in the face of natural disasters, the state needed taxes more - he did not take them all back, and he also left enough money for them to be rich for the rest of their lives; He demoted Wang Ju to other places, at first because he listened to other people's words, but then after thinking about it carefully, Wang Ju had no restrictions on entering and leaving the harem of foreign courts, and he didn't care about him, but it didn't mean that he recognized his behavior, and as a result, the queen actually thought that he Wang Ju was a great hero, and sent a female official to comfort his old mother - in the long run, he Wang Ju is not more rampant?

To put it mildly, he Li Longji has not moved to kill them so far, and they are not merciful enough?

Li Longji has been bored, and he can't relieve himself, so he refuses to sleep. Xiao Jiangyuan saw him so willful for the first time, and finally said helplessly: "Not all heroes are like this, I look at General Wang, he is a lot more honest." ”

Xiao Jiangyuan is talking about Wang Maozhong, who has been following Li Longji since he was a child, and now he has become a general, and he is also in charge of military horses and idle stables.

Li Longji said in a weird manner: "I'm afraid that I dare to be angry but don't dare to speak, who dares to express my heart like Liu Gong and General Zhong?" ”

It turned out that Liu Youqiu and Zhong Shaojing said something unpleasant, Xiao Jiangyuan nodded suddenly: "Now that they have been taken into custody, what are you going to do with the two of them?" ”

"I plan to talk about it tomorrow after Yao Gong comes."

Xiao Jiangyuan knew that Li Longji would answer like this: "If this is the case, why do you refuse to go to bed?" ”

Li Longji frowned and glanced at Xiao Jiangyuan. After pondering for a while, he took the initiative to step down from the couch, stand with his arms outstretched, and wait for the palace people to change into his bedclothes. Seeing Xiao Jiangyuan pour the soothing tea, he gently fanned it with his plain white hand after pouring it, his expression was comfortable, and his heart couldn't help but be quiet. After hesitating for a moment, he asked, "You are also a hero, do you think I am also ...... Cool and thin? ”

Xiao Jiangyuan slapped his hot hand on the tea slightly: "...... Yes. ”
