Chapter 137: Reviving the Dark Pavilion (2)
I walked over and took his hand affectionately.
"These days, I've worked hard for you, girl." He let out a long sigh, a thousand words clogged in his throat, and turned into a bitter smile.
"It's not hard, it's all what I'm supposed to do." We sat down on the stone platform, and he handed me a bag of preserves.
Take one and stuff it into your mouth, and the sweet and sour taste awakens the palate. When I first entered the Dark Night Pavilion, I was afraid that they would die, and Chongzi treated us very harshly, so I was afraid every day. The Great Elder didn't like me, and he looked at me coldly, only the Second Elder was gentle and charitable, and secretly stuffed me with candied fruit as a snack every day.
Actually, I don't like to eat sweets, but his behavior is touching, so I ate them all. Time flies, how many years have passed, some people are gone, some people are still there, but they are no longer the people they once were.
"Don't worry, girl, it's going to get better. Even if you can't return to the country, it's better to live like this. ”
I looked up in surprise, he actually said that this life is also good? At the beginning, wasn't the establishment of the Dark Night Pavilion just to restore the country?
He seemed to see my confusion and narrowed his eyes, his gaze falling on the distant horizon.
There are shallow clouds and a slight sunshine.
"Your mother, I watched her grow up, maybe she did a lot of things you can't understand, but she cares about you the most. The return to the country stems from a promise she made to herself, and she said that if she could go back many years ago, she would not let the maid leave with you alone. ”
I turned my head away, closed my eyes and told myself not to believe her, not to think about her.
The weak wind blows in the ears, drifting into the distance with people's thoughts.
"Second Elder, don't say this anymore, my only wish now is to make the Night Pavilion stronger, and let Xin Li be more sensible, and I will rest assured."
He was silent and did not respond for a long time.
Angelica Angelica brings fruit tea, and the fruity aroma is stirred in the tea, which is so unique that people will remember it.
I learned my tea art from Lan Zhi, but my skills are not as good as my teacher. Lan Zhi is resolute and gentle and virtuous, if it weren't for everything, I really want to find her a good wishful husband, and don't suffer with me anymore.
She sat down on the one below and said, "Business is gradually getting better at the tea house, don't worry, princess." ”
"I'm not worried, it's just that the lack of talent in the Night Pavilion is something that must be solved."
"Talent?"
"In ancient times, Liu Bei asked Zhuge Liang to come out of the mountain, and this allusion can see how important talents are. It's a pity that we can't recruit talents with as much fanfare as the imperial court......"
The second elder agreed: "This is reasonable, back then, Emperor Liangxi exiled many wise men to listen to the slander of villains to gradually weaken the national strength......
Suddenly my mind suddenly opened, and a flash of inspiration struck. "I know! I know how to do it! ”
slapped their legs and got up, startling them, the second elder's hand shook, the tea cup was not held steadily, and the fruit tea spilled on the ground.
Embarrassed to sit down, he cleared his thoughts and said slowly: "I heard in the palace that in order to pave the way for the new emperor, the first emperor dismissed or exiled many important ministers who leaned towards the government and the opposition on trumped-up charges, and even directly put them on death row. If we can give them favors, appreciate their talents, and control their families. A combination of hard and soft should pay off. For example, today's saint has also pardoned many talented people in Liangxi, not only did not kill them, but also gave them the opportunity to display their talents step by step, and these people have really changed from Liangxi people to important ministers who serve Beiyan. We need to let these exiles know which one will be better for them, and smart people will naturally have smart choices. ”
The second elder smiled and said: "Gao Ming, I really underestimated you before, if you are a man, you must have a great career!" ”
It's a pity that these things are easier said than done.
"Lan Zhi, you ordered to go down and find out where these people had gone. After finding out, Su Yanqing and I visited them one by one. ”
Lan Zhi was surprised and said, "Mr. Su? ”
I smiled and replied to her in a half-joking tone: "Yes, if they don't eat hard and soft, they can only use their hands to kill them, or wait for them to denounce us?" ”
She couldn't help but laugh, packed up the teacup and retreated.
Although it is a joke, I have to say that if they really don't eat hard and soft, then this is the last way.
"Elder, Xin Li, how are you doing?"
Although he has committed unpardonable sins, he is my brother who is related to me by blood.
"It's okay, reading books and practicing swords, it's plain and bland, and I don't talk much."
I can imagine him living alone, and in order to sharpen his character, no one is allowed to speak to him except to deliver food and send someone to teach him swordsmanship, and I don't know if I am right to do so.
I have a headache to death, things are put in a pile, and the cutting is still messy.
"Elder, I have an idea about the scarcity of personnel in the Night Pavilion, but I don't know if it's feasible. Far away from the imperial city, there are some areas where corruption is rampant, and there are not a few unjust, false and wrongly decided cases. I want to buy back the lives of those death row prisoners and let them work for the Night Pavilion, and the officials in those areas will not be able to buy back the people they want for a short time. Secondly, I have to rebuild the Rakshasa Field, and the people who can come out of the Rakshasa Field can really become the people of the Night Pavilion. ”
The two elders were stunned, as if they were thinking about the feasibility of this method.
Rakshasa Field is a place where people kill without blinking. It is said that the people of the earlier generation of the Dark Night Pavilion have to go through the survival of the fittest in the Rakshasa Field. The reason why the original Great Elder and the Second Elder had a body of fame and martial arts was because they were the first batch of people to come out of the Rakshasa Field.
Chongzi set up a Rakshasa field and got a lot of extremely good subordinates.
It is said that the people in the Rakshasa field were not allowed to eat or drink in water for three days, and they had no weapons or assistance. The first level has to pass the poisonous insects and ant beasts, the second level has to pass the mechanism set by the previous elders, and the third level has to be brothers and sisters who fight side by side.
Ruthless, desireless, and wanted, the master that Chongzi wants is just a good knife without thoughts. But I have to say that this method has pushed the Dark Night Pavilion to the peak, and no one in the rivers and lakes dares to approach.
I haven't seen the Rakshasa field, because just a week before I was about to enter the cabinet, this field and system were abolished by her own hands.
Now that I think about it, maybe, this is another way she protects me.
"The method you mentioned is indeed feasible, but restarting the Rakshasa Field requires countless manpower, material and financial resources. I'm afraid, it's hard to implement. The second elder was worried, and his brows furrowed into the word "Chuan".
I replied to him lightly: "I don't need the three levels of Rakshasa three, I just need the last level." Of the ten people, only one person can come out alive. ”
He was surprised, maybe because of my cold-bloodedness, maybe because he couldn't believe the ruthlessness of the little girl in front of him.
The army must be borrowed from other countries, and we rely on ourselves, so we don't know what year or month. However, I need an army of my own that can deliver the deadliest blow to the enemy at the most critical moments.
"Girl, I believe you can do a good job, old man, I will spare no effort to help you." He patted me on the shoulder. Then he left with a complicated expression.
Looking at the horizon, the twilight is slanting in the west.
The ointment Xiao Ling gave me is still in my pocket.
During the day, things in the Night Pavilion came to an end, and I wondered if I should go and see him.
"Pavilion Master." The guard guarding the door walked in and said, "The palace master of Buyun Palace asks to see you." ”
What a ...... Speak of the devil.
