Chapter Seventy-Three: Old Grudges
Xia Yuan stayed in Tieshan City, the border city of Yuanzhou, for a few days, which was equivalent to playing for a few days. The course of the past few days has finally made up for the regrets that Xia Yuan had left in his heart before, and he is no longer haunted.
Six days later, Xia Yuan rushed to Yanglin Mansion with a satisfied smile and anticipation. Previously, he had already passed the news to Xia Tu and Xia Shi through the rudder of the Beggar Gang in Iron Mountain City, asking them to go to Yanglin Mansion to meet him. Of course, now that Xia Tu and Xia Shi are not famous, it is naturally impossible for Xia Yuan to pass on the news to them. Xia Yuan played a trick, and when the beggars split the rudder, he just talked about passing the news to Elder Wang Du. Anyway, there was an envelope sealed, and these beggar disciples didn't know who it was for. As for the letter after it arrived, Elder Wang Du would have to know it.
For Elder Wang Du, Xia Yuan was a hundred dissatisfied. is a good young talent, and he makes him look like a spy, and he is still the kind of spy who never turns over. And he will never be able to enter other big forces in the future. Although it seemed that there was no risk, Xia Yuan still felt extremely unhappy.
Xia Yuan didn't believe that if he joined other big forces, the beggar gang wouldn't let him do anything like passing on information. After all, the rivers and lakes are endlessly strife, and in this calm surface, there are many unsightly dark sides hidden underneath. The beggar holds his handle in his hand, and he has to do whatever he wants. Moreover, as a secret disciple of the beggar gang, he should be. Before this general trend of the rivers and lakes, without the strength to resist the rules of the world, can you resist? So to speak, you are only doing your duty, but you do not enjoy the rights, and you are equivalent to a living new generation of coolies!
Moreover, why Xia Tu and Xia Shi stayed in the beggar gang was not just to play the role of a hostage. Although it seems that he doesn't need to bother so much about a little minion like himself. However, these big forces have existed for a very long time, and they have always known how to plan for a rainy day, and they are very patient. Anyway, you don't have to pay anything, and you can deepen these people's loyalty to the gang, so why not.
Xia Yuan's face was gloomy, and he sighed helplessly. I just said that the thief was beaten, but I didn't see the thief eat meat. If he hadn't been a secret disciple of the Beggar Gang, he wouldn't have been accepted as an apprentice by his master. That being said, it seems to be very disrespectful to the Master of Empty Suffering. However, this is the case. Moreover, it is strange that a spy in the rivers and lakes like himself has such a situation.
Xia Yuan came back this time, in addition to meeting Xia Tu and Xia Shi, there was also a grievance hidden in his heart for many years to deal with. The reason why he asked Xia Tu and Xia Shi to go to Yanglin Mansion to meet him was to deal with this grievance that had already occurred, and to give justice to his own body.
Yuanzhou is located in the east, and Yanglin Province is biased to the west in Yuanzhou, which is the border area within Yuanzhou. Otherwise, Xia Yuan and the others would not have been sent to Qingzhou to carry out the mission in the first place. If the journey is too long, I'm afraid that Xia Yuan and the others will have to travel for a long time, how can it be possible to carry out the task on time.
..................
Yanglin Mansion is located in Yuanzhou, but it is not an important place in Yuanzhou. In its history, there is no birth of natural treasures, nor is it a place rich in products. Except for some scattered people passing by occasionally, there are no Jianghu forces stationed in the local area. It can be said that it is a rare place of purity.
However, in the same way, there is no battle on the rivers and lakes, and there are no so-called righteous people in the rivers and lakes to fight grievances. Although in the eyes of the government, these so-called righteous people are some uneasy factors, (they forget their top bosses - those large and small family forces are also forces on the rivers and lakes.) However, in the eyes of the common people, these righteous people are the beacon of their own suffering.
After all, the rulers are always with them. Once they are persecuted, they will see it. And the harm caused by those so-called righteous people did not witness it with their own eyes. Ordinary people can only see in front of them, and you can't expect them to see farther.
Yanglin Mansion was located in such a clean place, so it was naturally the preferred target of those officials. Those officials were able to come to Yanglin Mansion to take office, and after a lot of fighting, the blood in them was not with outsiders.
After those officials came to Yanglin Mansion to take office, in order to make up for their losses as soon as possible, they naturally had to rack their brains and find a way to recover their capital as soon as possible. Don't say that officials are not greedy, even if there are some officials who are not greedy occasionally, they will not come to Yanglin Mansion to take office.
How can those officials make up for their losses as soon as possible? The best way to do this is naturally to collude with officials and businessmen, and only by colluding with officials and businessmen can they get rich as soon as possible. Xia Yuan's original family was ruined because of this reason. If Xia Yuan, the housekeeper and others hadn't been kicked out of the house, and there was no way to ask for help, the housekeeper wouldn't have died so early.
In Yangcheng, where the government of Yanglin Mansion was stationed, Xia Yuan walked on the familiar and unfamiliar streets, feeling a burst of sadness.
Since Xia Yuan was kicked out of his home by the government when he was eight years old, he fell into the streets. The housekeeper at that time was afraid that those people would kill people, so he quickly left Yangcheng with Xia Yuan and the others. Since then, Xia Yuan and the others have never returned to Yangcheng.
Yangcheng is still like that, without the slightest change. The collapse of the Xia family, a well-known scholarly family, did not seem to bring the slightest fluctuation to Yangcheng's stalemate, and Yangcheng still looked so lifeless.
The government is the happiest at all. They can't wait for the world to be like this, so that the world can have long-term peace and stability, and only in this way can they enjoy the fish and flesh of the people. This is also the place where the government and the people in the rivers and lakes are completely different.
What people in the rivers and lakes are looking forward to is blood, passion, and change. Only in this way can their lives be colorful. Only in this way can their martial arts be refined. They are looking forward to eternal life and a more wonderful life.
And the officials will only be old-fashioned, dull, without the slightest passion.
Those families who manage the world will not let the elite disciples of the family go to the official mansion to do things. They would rather let someone outside the family be in charge of power, rather than let the children of the family enter the government and become tainted with the style of officials. That would only lead the family to ruin.
This is a world of martial arts, and only the progress of martial arts is the most important. In the same way, only martial arts can make a person truly climb to the top.
Everyone in the world knows this, even the officials.
Otherwise, those officials would not have the right to let their children cultivate in a better environment.
After all, no one in this world is stupider than anyone else!
