The study was very quiet, and you could even hear some movement in the courtyard through the closed doors and windows. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Seeing the hesitation and hesitation on Su Dongpo's face, Chu Xiaobai was also a little embarrassed in his heart, and he didn't know how to speak. However, he really didn't like such a quiet atmosphere, and after sitting for a while, he almost couldn't hold it back.

"Alas~." With a sigh, Chu Xiaobai broke the silence: "Brother Zizhan, are you like them, do you treat me as an unattainable immortal?" ”

"The villain really doesn't dare to overstep it." Su Dongpo arched his hand, and there was a hint of awe on his face.

"Passover? Not. Chu Xiaobai smiled bitterly and shook his head: "To be honest, I really don't like seeing this scene now." It's better to be a friend than to be treated like this by you. In other words, aren't you good friends with Buddha Yin? Treat me as you would treat him, okay? ”

'You are different from the Buddha Yin, he is just a monk, at most he is a monk, he is not a Buddha Arhat after all, but you are an authentic immortal' Thinking so, Su Dongpo still hesitated: "This ......." ”

Seeing that Su Dongpo's attitude was a little stubborn, it was not something that could be said in one or two sentences, so as a last resort, Chu Xiaobai had no choice but to make a ruthless move and use his identity to fool him: "Brother Zizhan, do you know why there are so many people in the court, but I look at you differently?" ”

"It's not a secret, you were originally a boy under the Wenqu Star Throne who was reincarnated, and your original wife was an orchid in front of the Phixiang Palace. At the beginning, it was you who inadvertently spilled some elixir and jade dew, which ignited her spirituality and allowed her to transform into a shape, and then in order to repay your kindness, she found Yue Lao and asked him to help make a covenant with you for three lifetimes. ”

"The elixir and jade dew you spilled was originally what I asked you to send to Wenqu Xingjun. Later, your original wife found Yue Lao, and it was I who pulled the strings from it, so that Yue Lao agreed to her request. Speaking of which, the relationship between the two of us is not only the relationship we have seen before, but also a lot of cause and effect. ”

Chu Xiaobai's nonsense really worked.

No, as soon as he heard that he was also a fairy child in the sky, Su Dongpo's awe for Chu Xiaobai in his heart was immediately weakened a lot, and then he heard that his original wife was actually reincarnated by fairy grass, and the romantic nerve in his heart was stimulated again. The most important thing is that Chu Xiaobai also has a sentence of 'covenant of the three worlds' in his words, which is undoubtedly the best explanation for Su Dongpo, who is worried about his deceased wife.

"Immortal Chief, is what you said true?" After a slight hesitation, Su Dongpo finally spoke, and at the same time, a trace of excitement finally appeared on his face.

"Of course it's true." Chu Xiaobai nodded, and in order to increase the credibility in his words, he waved his hand again and said, "Before, you have never called me Immortal Chief. As long as you have leisure, you always go to me to eat and drink, and when you eat happily, you will call me Brother Chu, if you don't rub it, you will puff out your face and call me directly with feeding. ”

"I'm a loose person, I don't have many friends in the heavenly court, and you're the only one who is willing to mess around with me. Alas, speaking of which, it was more cute when I was a boy in waiting. ”

While listening to Chu Xiaobai describe his previous life, Su Dongpo thought of a more specific character image, and compared it with his current self.

Before going down to earth, was Wenqu Xingjun's boy a scholar? Presumably, it is because I have been with Wenqu Xingjun for a long time that I have been able to make such a big name in my life; There are so many causes and effects between him and his original wife, so when she dies, he will become lovesick and can't forget it for a long time; Always goes to Chu Xiaobai to eat and drink, it seems that he used to be a foodie, so he will be so ......attentive to eating in this life.

I didn't know that Chu Xiaobai's words were deliberately fabricated against his own life experience, and after making up for it, Su Dongpo himself completely believed in Chu Xiaobai's evil.

"That,...... Brother Chu. "Now that you believe it, change your name back. However, because Chu Xiaobai now looks like he is only in his twenties, much younger than himself who is over fifty years old, Su Dongpo's eldest brother is still quite hesitant and entangled.

“……。” Chu Xiaobai was also a little awkward, and after pondering for a while, he still decided not to pretend to be this force: "Don't shout like that for the time being, let's talk about it when you return to your position." Now, you're shouting awkwardly, and it doesn't sound right to me. Otherwise, you would still call me Brother Chu just like last night, and I'll call you Brother Zizhan. ”

"Okay then." After thinking about it, Su Dongpo also nodded.

There was a conversation between them, and the atmosphere in the room finally became lively.

For any mortal, things in the heavenly court are always so fascinating. So, in the following conversations, most of the questions were asked by Su Dongpo, and most of his questions were related to Heavenly Court and his past life.

In the face of these questions, Chu Xiaobai either continued to talk nonsense with reference to the online novels he had read, and when he encountered some that he couldn't explain, he would fool the past with the words 'You are still a mortal in the flesh, and I can't reveal too much heavenly secrets to you'.

But even so, Su Dongpo was still fascinated by it.

On the other hand, Chu Xiaobai tried his best. After all, lying is not such a simple thing, and it is even more difficult to lie with a well-thought-out system.

"Okay, okay, Brother Zizhan, don't ask. It's still the same sentence, now you, it's not suitable to know too much. Chu Xiaobai had to raise his hand to stop Su Dongpo's question, and took the topic in another direction: "Let's talk about something else, as far as I know, when you come back from Hangzhou this time, are you going to enter Beijing as an official?" ”

"I don't know, I've only been back for a few days. Today was supposed to be the day when I went to the court to report on my work, but when you come here, Brother Chu, Your Majesty has no heart to deal with other things, and my affairs have been delayed. Su Dongpo remembered the main purpose of today's court, and couldn't help but show a helpless expression on his face.

"Haven't you been appointed to a new position yet?" Chu Xiaobai nodded: "That's good, if you want me to say, you better not get involved so much." ”

Since he will get the opportunity to go on the pilgrimage to meet the emperor, it shows that Su Dongpo's official position is not small. And who wouldn't want to go one step further if they have come this far?

I really didn't expect Chu Xiaobai to say this, Su Dongpo was stunned by him all of a sudden: "Alas? What do you mean by that? ”

"That's a quagmire. When you are an official in the court, you don't know what the situation is in the court now, right? The new party, the old party, hehe, I really don't know what you officials think, haven't you all studied history and never known about the disaster of the party in the Han Dynasty? Saying this, Chu Xiaobai's face showed a clearly visible anger, as well as a trace of regret that hated him.

The disaster of the party rebellion occurred in the late Han Dynasty, and soon after that, the Three Kingdoms were established. On the surface, it seems that it was Emperor Ling's mediocrity that led to the collapse of the Han Dynasty, but when it comes to further investigation, it is the party struggle that brings more harm, and it is the party struggle that shakes the foundation of the entire Han Dynasty.

"However, the disaster of the party is the eunuch ......." With a hint of surprise and a lot of doubts, Su Dongpo did not agree with Chu Xiaobai's analogy.

"There is a party of eunuchs, a party of relatives, and a party of scattered officials, and there are many factions, just to fight for power, and never consider the people's livelihood in the world." Chu Xiaobai raised his hand to stop Su Dongpo's rebuttal, shook his head, and said with a sigh: "Although the situation is different, the reason is the same, isn't it?" ”

"This ......." Thinking back to the things that happened in the court, Su Dongpo was speechless. Just like Chu Xiaobai said, in the current imperial court, there are indeed many people who only think about fighting for power, and in order to achieve their own goals, they will even ignore the possible benefits of various new policies.

"When the previous generation of emperors was in power, it was originally an opportunity for the Great Song Dynasty. If the officials below worked together, the Great Song Dynasty might have rejuvenated itself, surpassing the powerful Han and Tang dynasties in one fell swoop, and becoming the most powerful prosperous dynasty in Chinese history. However, it was the party struggle that made the Great Song Dynasty lose a rare opportunity and embarked on a fork in the road from prosperity to decline. Saying this, Chu Xiaobai shook his head bitterly and let out a long sigh: "Alas, why do you think I came down this time?" It's not that the Jade Emperor can't see it, so he asked me to come down and help his descendants. ”

Chu Xiaobai's call deeply touched Su Dongpo, no, it should be said that he scared him.

"From prosperity to decline?"

"Yes." Chu Xiaobai nodded again, and said categorically: "If I don't come down this time, at most, twenty years later, the Great Song Dynasty will encounter a huge crisis, and then it will be robbed of a large number of rivers and mountains by the barbarians in the north." By the way, after a thousand years, the current Great Song Dynasty will be called the Northern Song Dynasty, and after the crisis, the Great Song Dynasty, which moved the capital to the south and survived, will be called the Southern Song Dynasty by later generations. ”

The Western Han Dynasty and the Eastern Han Dynasty are the best examples. But the slight difference is that in the early years of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the whole country was still strong and prosperous, in comparison, it was not much worse than the previous Western Han Dynasty, and what about the Northern Song Dynasty and the Southern Song Dynasty? From Chu Xiaobai's words, Su Dongpo has already heard a clear evaluation - although they are both Song Dynasty, the Southern Song Dynasty is much worse than the Northern Song Dynasty, and the two are obviously not on the same level.

"This, this, will ......." While thinking back to the content of the history books he had read, combined with Chu Xiaobai's words, and thinking about it a little, a large patch of white sweat immediately appeared on Su Dongpo's head.
