Chapter 159 Jinse 4

Xie Xuan's story is very long, and he is a little tired of listening to Xing Ruyi. She rested her chin on her hand as she rested her head slightly on the fox's shoulder.

On the opposite side of Xing Ruyi, it is Chang Tai. Chang Tai's eyes were always lowered, and the candlelight in the teahouse was fluttering, making it impossible to see clearly, whether his eyes were open or closed.

Xie Xuan sat next to Xing Ruyi, and when he stated the past, he couldn't help but pick up the tea bowl in front of him, but he just picked it up and put it down, and never took a sip. It can be seen that when recounting these past events, his heart, like a teacup shaking in his hand, is extremely uncalm.

Xing Ruyi yawned quietly, turned his head, and looked at Xie Xuan: "So, what does Lord Xie mean by telling Ruyi about this past?" ”

Although Xie Xuan has not been in contact with the girl for a long time, he also knows that the girl is by no means an ordinary person, and the Yin Gongzi next to the girl is even more very human. Therefore, Xie Xuan wanted to beg the girl to solve the matter of Jinhe on his behalf. The girl can rest assured, Xie Xuan understands the rules of the Ruyi Rouge Shop, no matter whether this matter is successful or not, Xie Xuan will thank him again! ”

"Listening to the meaning of Lord Xie's words, does it mean that Ruyi is a greedy person for money?"

"The girl misunderstood, Xie Xuan definitely didn't mean that. Xie Xuan just asked the girl for a favor, since it was a help, Xie Xuanyan could let the girl work for nothing, wouldn't he? As for the silver or the gifts, they are all thank-you gifts, and the girl doesn't have to mind. ”

"Even if the gift is forgotten, this girl still prefers real money." Xing Ruyi stretched his waist: "Actually, you don't have to hide it from Master Xie, Ruyi is actually a person who likes money very much." It's not that I'm greedy for money, but I used to be very poor and poor, so I know that in this world, although money is not omnipotent, no money is absolutely impossible. The gentleman is wealthy, and he takes it in a good way, although Ruyi is a little girl, but he will never take money that he should not take. As for what Lord Xie invited, Ruyi has to go back and think about it carefully, and please Lord Xie, don't force it! ”

"It's nature! It's just a matter of begging for someone, how can I force the girl to do it. It's just that Xie Xuan believes that you, the torture girl, will definitely agree. Xie Xuan seemed to be very confident and said: "Because Xie Xuan can see that the girl is a chivalrous, kind-hearted, and willing to help each other." Xie Xuan, here, the ancestors of Jin Se, Jin and his sister and brother thanked the girl. ”

"Are these all your routines, Lord Xie, asking people to do things? first said all the good things, and then said so many compliments that Ruyi was embarrassed to say the word refusal. Xing Ruyi said and stood up: "However, Ruyi has its own rules for doing things, so some of the routines used by Lord Xie in the officialdom are not easy to use here in Ruyi." ”

Xie Xuan smiled and did not answer. The fox, who was sitting on the side and had never spoken, suddenly made a voice at this time, he looked into Xie Xuan's eyes and asked, "Do you know what is the name of the Taoist priest who cast spells for Jinhe that day?" ”

"Daoist?" Xie Xuan was stunned for a moment: "Why did Yin Gongzi ask about that Taoist priest?" ”

"Isn't it weird? It would be best if my family didn't agree, but if she didn't agree on a whim, she agreed. Shouldn't we know who we are? However, Lord Xie's reaction was a little strange. It's just a Taoist priest, and Master Xie has told such a long story, is it true that even such a seemingly insignificant Taoist priest, who is actually the focus of the whole thing, refuses to say a few more words? ”

"Yin Gongzi misunderstood, Xie Xuan didn't want to talk about it, but"

"Master Xie, don't say it, you didn't ask that day." The fox leaned back slightly, raising his entire face. The handsome face seems to have its own brilliance, and the dazzling people can't help but look at it twice: "Lord Xie was born in the Xie family, and what he has seen since elementary school is different from ordinary people. Yin, it happens to be the same. So I understand your mind very well, Lord Xie. I didn't ask such a thing that day, and it was just a matter of deceiving a simple and kind girl like Ruyi in my family. ”

"Xie Xuan really didn't mean that!" When Xie Xuan heard this, he hurriedly got up: "It's not that Xie Xuan didn't mean not to say it, but because when he stated just now, he didn't take this Taoist priest too seriously, and for Xie Xuan, what he was most concerned about was Jin Se and Jin He's sister and brother." As the saying goes, caring is chaotic, and small things like Taoist priests are naturally easy to ignore. Therefore, at this point, I have to ask the torture girl and Yin Gongzi not to mind too much, Xie Xuan really didn't mean to deceive the two of them. ”

"Then, please tell us Lord Xie, the name of the Taoist priest, right?" The fox said, reaching out and making a gesture of please.

"The real name of the Taoist priest, Xie Xuan really doesn't know. As Yin Gongzi said, Xie Xuan did notice the Taoist priest in Jin Se's mouth that night. At first, I was just curious, curious that this Taoist priest could bring Jin He back from the dead, and later, he was sympathetic to Jin He's experience, so he thought that if he could find this Taoist priest in the future, it would be good for Jin Se and Jin to free his sister and brother. It's just that, based on Xie Xuan's experience, it can be judged that what the Taoist priest said to Jin Se was not his real name, or even his real Dao name. ”

"Could it be that he also claims to be unwarranted, from Zhongnan Mountain?"

Xing Ruyi originally just asked casually, but he never thought that Xie Xuan really nodded, then opened his eyes wide, looked at Xing Ruyi, and asked suspiciously: "How did the criminal girl know?" Could it be that the girl also knows this Mo Daochang? ”

"Hehe" Xing Ruyi laughed dryly: "How do I know him?" Just now, Master Xie also said that when this Taoist chief cast a spell on Jinhe was in the Taizong period, there was no wishful thinking at that time. It's just that not long ago, Ruyi also encountered a strange thing, which happened to be related to such a person who claimed to be from Zhongnan Mountain and had no Taoist name. That's why I asked so casually. But just like Lei Feng did a good deed and didn't leave a name, this doesn't need to have three words, I'm afraid it is also a name that many Taoist monks will use. So, just a coincidence! Coincidental! Not unusual! ”

"That, who is Lei Feng? Is he also a learner? Xie Xuan asked, and even Chang Tai, who had been hanging his eyes, locked his eyes on Xing Ruyi's face.

"Lei Feng is a person from my hometown, he is very kind and willing to help others. But after helping others, I don't want to accept the gratitude of others, so I always leave quietly. If the person who asks you is in a hurry, you will leave your own name. Later, his good deeds touched many people, so more and more people learned from him. Whenever I do something good, when I meet someone and ask, I reply that I am Lei Feng! Well, that's about what it looks like. ”

"So, Lei Feng is actually not a person's name, but a name that many people who have done good deeds will use, I say so, right?" Xie Xuan frowned slightly, and then asked again: "Isn't Miss Ruyi from Luoyang?" Where is the girl's hometown? ”

"I'm from Luoyang, but not from the city, but from the countryside. The hometown I am talking about is the small village where I was born. As for where it is, even if I say it, you won't be able to find it, Master Xie. Because, a few years ago, when there was a big flood, my hometown was flooded, and my father and mother also died, and I was saved by a fox to survive until now. So, I don't even want to mention those things before, it's too sad and sad! Xing Ruyi said, and leaned over the fox's shoulder, and his shoulders shrugged one after another.

Chang Tai was a little unbearable, so he said next to him: "Ruyi is indeed from Luoyang!" Her hometown has indeed disappeared. Adults are transferred to Shendu as officials, so there are many things that adults don't know and can't know. Many villages in Luoyang are close to river banks, and some small villages will be submerged in the event of flooding. But because it is a rural place, such things will also be hidden by the household department and subordinate officials. Only when redrawing the national map, before and after, can we find that these small villages and towns have disappeared. ”

Xie Xuan originally wanted to use unwarranted things to find out the details of the punishment, but he didn't expect to get such a result. He is an official, so he naturally knows what is going on in this officialdom. From ancient times to the present, many people will abuse the emperor in private, saying that the emperor is mediocre, but they don't know that in fact, the emperor is the most innocent. Because the officials around him don't tell him the truth. If one person tells a lie and nine people tell the truth, the emperor will naturally be deaf and clear-sighted and have some judgment, but among the ten people, nine and a half are telling lies, and the other half will either not say it, or they will be divided, and how can they be clear and clear when they become emperors, and how can they understand the real world and the real people.

Take him as an example, although he is an official of the Beijing Division's yamen, the cases that are judged on weekdays are all short of parents, chickens and dogs, and there are few real criminal cases, but if the emperor asks him, what is the price of rice and grain in this city now? He did not know which village outside the city had the best harvest, which village was mulberry growing, and which village was weaving. But such a question, it is difficult to protect the face of the saint, the emperor does not ask, if the emperor asks on a whim, when the courtier has to answer: "The minister does not know!" I don't know! Rong Chen went back and asked! "I'm afraid that I was cut off by the emperor at that time. Therefore, he could only think about answering, and he could only calculate what he ate, used, and needed at home, as well as the amount of silver he paid every month, and gave a satisfactory answer that the emperor himself wanted to know.

As a result, the emperor felt that he was a good emperor, and that he was rich in managing the world, and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment. But what about the truth? Everything the emperor knows is fabricated by an official, and the real life of the common people is how it is possible to reach the daily life level of a Beijing official.

Therefore, the emperor's mediocrity is not the emperor's fault, but the official's fault! From this, it can also be deduced that Xing Ruyi's statement that his hometown was destroyed is also very likely to be true. Therefore, when he asked the phantom to investigate, he couldn't find out the details of the punishment.

Here, Xie Xuan had a lot of thoughts in his heart.

Over there, the fox caressed Xing Ruyi's back and said to her in ventriloquism: "Is your hometown really from the countryside?" ”

"Naturally, I'm from the countryside, but I'm a serious village girl!" Xing Ruyi said, raised his head slightly, revealed a pair of eyes, and winked vigorously at the fox: "Also, I didn't talk nonsense, I am indeed a native of Luoyang, but it is in Luoyang after a thousand years." By the way, I also visited the Sui and Tang ruins. It's a pity that I can't find any of the demeanor of the Tang Dynasty. ”

Xing Ruyi thought about it, took out a copper plate from his pocket, shook it in front of the fox's eyes, and said, "If I engrave my name on this copper plate, and then bury this copper plate under this teahouse, do you say that after a thousand years, will people who are in the same time and space as us dig it up?" If you dig it up, will it become an antique? ”

The fox thought carefully for a moment and said, "Forget about the copper plates, are there still fewer dug up in those cemeteries?" It's nothing unusual. If you really want to bury it, I think you can write a book and bury it under the Ruyi rouge shop, so that those descendants can see what the real Tang Dynasty looks like. It not only has the rule of chastity, but also the goblins and ghosts. ”

Xing Ruyi's eyes lit up first, and then dimmed: "Even if I really wrote it, it was really dug up by those descendants." At best, it is a ghost in the Tang Dynasty, and no one will believe it at all, this is true history. As for my name, it will probably be erased and written as an anonymous name, wishful scattering or something. Punishment Ruyi? With such a feminine name, do you think there will be a chance to appear? ”

"It's okay!" The fox held Xing Ruyi's hand and said in ventriloquism: "You can write your name as Qingqiu Fox Emperor!" ”

Xing Ruyi glanced at the fox and muttered in a low voice: "Stinky fart!" ”
