Chapter Ninety-Five: What if you weren't there one day?

The little daughter of the Wei family married Li Changsheng, who was deprived of his status as a showman, which naturally caused a sensation. The two were originally famous fairy couples, and they originally thought that Li Changsheng's accident would make this marriage come to naught, and everyone was waiting for the Wei family to give the Li family a stone.

However, the result was not, and Wei Xi entered the Li family with a red cover. There was no dowry, no banquet, none of the relatives and friends were present, and they even walked to the Li family by themselves.

Although this behavior made many people beat their chests secretly, everyone stood up on the surface. At least for the sake of their own face, the talented people can only vigorously praise this kind of behavior.

Naturally, there is inevitably spurning and jealousy of Li Changsheng.

But ordinary people who don't have much culture don't have that cheek, and it is inevitable to mock them in secret.

Li Changsheng's house is a small courtyard with a wall, with a total of three rooms, a kitchen, a hall, and a master bedroom. There is a date tree in the yard, as well as a well.

This is the wedding house prepared by Li Changsheng, the house is not too big or small, and it can be regarded as an upper-middle level in the local area.

Li Changsheng's ancestors have been poor peasants for several generations, but after so many years, he is still a well-known prodigy. Naturally, there is no shortage of money, and this small courtyard was built early, and it is not the first time Wei Xi has come.

In addition to not being able to stay overnight because of the etiquette, Wei Xi often comes to this small courtyard, and naturally knows the inside very well, and he doesn't feel strange when he suddenly changes places to live.

"Husband, husband, this is my craft."

Wei Xi put a plate of boiled and somewhat charred dishes on the table, and looked at Li Changsheng expectantly. Li Changsheng naturally ate it hard, and then said with a smile: "It's delicious, it's really delicious." I didn't expect Xi'er to cook other dishes besides red bean porridge. ”

"Really?"

Wei Xi was full of joy, and put it in her mouth, and a burning smell rushed to her brain, almost not letting her vomit.

"Gross! It's so unpalatable, husband, you lied to me! ”

In a fit of rage, Wei Xi pounced, after getting married, there was no restraint of etiquette, she could hold Li Changsheng like when she was a child.

A woman's faint fragrance came to his face, Li Changsheng had already taken precautions, grabbed Wei Xi's hand with his backhand and held it in his arms. As a lady, Wei Xi has never done any farm work since he was a child, so he can be described as light and soft, and he has no strength.

Li Changsheng was like hugging a cloud, soft and light.

"You dare to sneak attack your husband, see how I clean you up."

Li Changsheng picked up Wei Xi and walked into the bedroom, and when he threw her on the bed, his face, which was still a little angry just now, suddenly became pitiful, like a sheep.

"Husband, the number of inconsistencies is not in line with the number of etiquette. It's early in the morning, what if it's discovered. Is it good to start at night? ”

"There wasn't much in our neighborhood, and it was very quiet."

Approaching noon, the sun burned their buttocks, and the two of them had not gotten up, lying quietly on the bed looking at the ceiling, physically and mentally ethereal.

Li Changsheng entered the state of a sage, while Wei Xi blushed and kept muttering about impoliteness.

Wei Xi suddenly asked, "Husband, I escaped death this time." ”

Such a strange and sudden question is confusing, but Wei Xi can feel that Li Changsheng is not so much in decline at this time as in the aftermath of the catastrophe. recalled his previous resistance to the imperial examination, and repeatedly failed the examination, which was obviously deliberate.

Li Changsheng was stunned for a moment, then nodded and smiled: "So to speak." ”

"Why?"

"The wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it." Li Changsheng replied, "I thought that as long as I showed enough talent, I would be able to climb all the way up. It's a pity that I was wrong, I was too naïve, and I almost didn't recover. ”

He performed too well, and he was too sharp, and he was jealous of others, and he almost attacked in groups. At the same time, he also understands that no matter how much talent he shows, he can't match the ranks of others. Those high-ranking lords will not look down on themselves because of this, but think about how to tame themselves and tame themselves into a dog.

A few years ago, when he was admitted to Xiucai, the county guard met him and wanted Li Changsheng to join him, but at that time, Li Changsheng was in high spirits, and he naturally refused because he had a marriage contract.

The Wei family doesn't dislike him for being poor, and he naturally won't dislike the other party when he soars into the sky.

The county guard expressed regret, with a meaningful smile on his face, and it was not until later that Li Changsheng understood this smile.

In the first township examination, his essay was stained by ink and regarded as unqualified for some reason.

In the second township test, he failed for the same reason.

The county guard once again invited him into the mansion, intending to marry his daughter to him, but Li Changsheng refused again.

Outsiders seem to be close, but in fact only he understands the filthiness.

In this way, Li Changsheng naturally knew who did it, but he was powerless in the face of the county guards, so he either gave in or returned to his hometown. In the end, he chose to return to his hometown, and he escaped.

This reminded him of the "Zhuangzi Mountain Tree" he watched in his previous life, and there was a sentence in it: should be between the wood and the geese, and there should be a change of dragon and snake.

It means that a gentleman should be between talent and talentlessness, advance when he should advance, and retreat when he retreats. When the right time comes, you can be like a dragon, flying thousands of miles, swallowing clouds and spitting fog; When the environment does not allow it, you can be like a snake, lurking among the grass, lowering your posture and embracing the ordinary.

It's not a good thing to be too sharp.

Li Changsheng slowly told everything he had experienced, Wei Xi listened carefully, the little girl obviously had not experienced the darkness of officialdom, and finally shrank into the quilt when she heard it.

"Husband, what if I encounter this kind of thing in the future?"

Wei Xi hugged Li Changsheng slightly, looking a little uneasy.

"It's okay, you can count on me."

"What if you don't have it someday?"

"What nonsense? I'll always be here. ”

"Gee, there's always something unexpected." Wei Xi hammered Li Changsheng, "When you go to the township test, I am not or not around." Until now, you've kept me in the dark. ”

She has always been a very intelligent woman, and obviously she will not be fooled like this.

The more he talked, the more angry he became, Wei Xi aimed at Li Changsheng's shoulder and took a bite.

"You can't hide it from me in the future."

Li Changsheng was slightly pained, looked at Wei Xi who was so angry that his cheeks were bulging, and said, "I'll tell you everything in the future." ”

"Remember a sentence, you should be between the trees and geese, when there is a dragon and snake change. The more you are in danger, the less impulsive you are, you have to be patient, and you have to be patient. ”

"How long?"

"Until you can turn everything upside down."

——

In the middle of the night, Wei Xi suddenly opened his eyes, and his breathing was a little confused.

"Dreams?" Wei Xi clutched his chest, his hands tightened slightly, and he clutched his collar until there was a faint cracking sound.

She hadn't dreamed in a long, long time, and it was a pity.

I got out of bed, walked into the bathroom, stood in front of the washbasin and slapped the water on my face again and again, looked up at myself in the mirror, and the throbbing in my eyes always lingered.

It's like a nightmare, and it's been with me for thousands of years.

A wave of depression welled up in her heart, almost suffocating her. Fortunately, she has a lot of experience in dealing with this symptom, and she just needs to enter the army and suppress all her emotions.

Her eyes glowed red, and quickly infected her pupils, and the uncontrollable throbbing was suppressed.

Wei Xi sat on the chair, and then there was no extra movement, just sat there quietly. The scene outside the window gradually brightened up with the time, until the sun showed half of it and there was a knock on the door.

"Enter."

The door clicked open, and Tang Ke walked in and saluted.

"My lord, all the people you wanted to investigate yesterday have been secretly arrested and are currently awaiting your interrogation."

In the conflict with Rome, the Qin army had a period of insufficient supplies, and the reason for this cannot be said publicly, it is a tradition since ancient times.

The stack of information in Wei Xi's hand yesterday is all the people involved, it is really the same as pulling peanuts, as soon as it is pulled out, there are hundreds of people, at least a hundred generals (lian).

Wei Xi's voice was majestic and cold: "How? ”

"After a preliminary soul search, basically all of them participated in it, and according to the law, they should be beheaded."

Immediately after Tang Ke's voice changed, he said with some concern: "But these people are intertwined and involve a wide range of people, and sending them to the sergeant court at one time may cause turmoil, and all parties will also get in the way." ”

This kind of thing has always happened, but this time it was too difficult for some people to eat, which led to a tight battle on the front line, or even a defeat. If it weren't for the flying generals who twisted the will of hundreds of thousands of front-line soldiers into a rope and let the Qin army maintain high morale, I am afraid that it is not certain who will die.

And now that the war is over, it is time for reckoning.

Kefei will catch everyone at once, and her steps are a little big, so she is worried that there will be problems.

Wei Xi also saw the assistant's worries, and said, "Xiao Ke, have you watched Qidi's modern "God Asking for Rain"? ”

Tang Ke nodded slightly and replied: "I've read a little, it tells about an arid place, there is a witch who specializes in asking for rain, and they can ask for rain like a god who is supreme and omnipotent. The people were also obedient to him and worshipped him as a god. ”

"Until one day, he couldn't ask for rain, and fell off the altar and was burned alive."

Wei Xi pointed to himself and said, "I am the god who asks for rain now, and I happen to ask for rain, so I want them to die." ”

The tone was indifferent, with a hint of indisperable majesty.

"Yes!"

Tang Ke put away all his worries, and only remained firm. Usually, the flying general is very good at talking, but once the order is given, no matter who it is, it must be carried out unreservedly.

Even if this order was sent to death, no one would dare to disobey it.

It was obedience honed in the flames of war, and she, along with countless warriors, believed that the Pilot's orders would eventually lead them to victory.

Tang Ke left the room with the bloody storm that was about to be set off.

When everything was quiet, Wei Xi picked up the pen on the table and wrote another letter, the number of words increasing until the paper could no longer hold it.

She had so much to say that she couldn't get the envelope to fit in.

A flame engulfed the envelope full of words.

Wei Xi picked up the pen again.
