The distant imperial capital city, the national teacher's mansion.

A fiery figure stumbled in, not only with beads of sweat on his head and face, but also with an extremely eager expression.

"Master, Master! Oh no! Wei Yunshu he, Wei Yunshu he solved the drought in Qingwu Prefecture! Now on the way back to Beijing, I'm afraid I'll be back in less than half a month! ”

The young man walked all the way through the gorgeous rockery pond garden courtyard in the National Teacher's Mansion and finally reached an octagonal pavilion built on a hill. There, a figure dressed in black was making tea comfortably.

Even if he heard this disciple's panicked voice, the black figure could be shaken in the slightest.

Seeing that his master was so quiet and composed, the panicked young man was quiet at this time, sitting opposite the man in black, barely keeping calm and watching him pour tea and brew it like a cloud.

The man in black is the national teacher of the Great Xia Kingdom, no one knows his origin, only that this national teacher came to the Great Xia Kingdom ten years ago, because he has the ability to penetrate the heavens and the earth, ghosts and gods, and the whole of Great Xia highly respects him. It's just that I don't know if too much of the heavenly opportunity has been leaked, this national teacher is weak and has to get sick from time to time. Even though it's only early autumn and the weather is only a little cool, the other party is still wearing a heavy wide-sleeved robe.

However, I have to say that this national teacher has an outstanding temperament, although he is sick and weak, he has a sense of glory and gloom.

At this time, this unhurried attitude, even if his appearance is not so good, makes his whole person more brilliant.

At this moment, the hot tea was finally soaked, and the restless young man opposite was also shared.

"Calmed down?"

The national teacher was holding his own tea cup, and of course he had to look at the disciple opposite at this time. This disciple is not smart, nor is he outstanding, especially not as outstanding as Wei Yunshu. However, it's such a disciple who is not smart enough that people can use it with confidence, isn't it?

After all, some people are stupid enough to be taken advantage of, and they will be grateful to you.

"Calm down."

At this time, the young man, or the uncle of the Great Xia Kingdom, Gong Yushu, breathed a sigh of relief at this moment, and then straightened his back silently. There was a kind of dejection in his expression, more like a self-loathing self-loathing.

Under the gentle gaze of the national teacher, Gong Yushu opened his mouth sullenly.

"I don't think I'll ever be able to compare to Wei Yunshu. In the past, when he was the eldest son of the Wei family, I couldn't compare to him when he was the imperial capital Zhilan, but now that the Wei family has disappeared, he has become a eunuch, and I still can't compare to him! Sure enough, I should have listened to your opinion and threw him to the South Wind Pavilion! ”

"I really underestimated Wei Yunshu! Even if he wastes his hands and feet and destroys his body and becomes a eunuch, as long as he can touch this right, he can still be stronger than me! Why is he better than me! How can he be better than me?! ”

The national teacher on the opposite side did not waver when he heard this series of words that could not be known to others, he didn't even move an eyebrow, and just shook the cup in his hand lightly at this moment, and the light yellow tea soup in the delicate white jade cup looked more and more fragrant and pleasant.

The whole set of tea sets on this table is pale cyan rain blue porcelain, only the one in the hand of the national teacher is a white jade cup. In fact, the teacup is not so precious, and there are even some traces because it has been used for too long, but since Gong Yushu met the national teacher, no matter where he drank tea, he only used this one cup, so it was extremely precious.

"Master, why do you still use this old cup? Didn't the apprentice send you a whole set of Xishan jade cups? ”

"I don't need those things, you don't have to send them later. This one is enough. ”

"But what's the special meaning of this cup?"

“…… It's just a gift from the old man. ”

The national teacher played with the jade cup in his hand with a faint expression, and Gong Yushu immediately knew that he was unhappy, and he didn't dare to mention this matter again, so he immediately changed it to his own private matter.

"Master, you said that Wei Yunshu is coming back, what should I do?"

"What can I do? Tell me if you have any deep hatred with Wei Yunshu, why do you have to hold on to others? I don't think Wei Yunshu is such an ignorant person, isn't he far away from you? ”

"What's so far away from me? He just can't see me! ”

Speaking of this, Gong Yushu's face was extremely gloomy!

"It's been like that since I was a kid, as long as he appears, only he is the focus, we are all foils! Literary and martial arts, I can't compare to him! Do you know what everyone said at that time? Everyone said that Wei Lang was born into the world, and he was different from ordinary people like me. ”

"Isn't it just that you are born to look better than others? What's the big deal? I just hate the way he looks! Or the previous appearance of groveling to serve nobles in the palace is more suitable for him! ”

But it was such a person who was beaten into the dust that one day shook off the dust on his body and stood up again. And he stood taller and more calm than they were.

Let's take a look at the news coming back! All the people of Qingwu Prefecture worship! He didn't have such an act that would go down in history! Why can a eunuch or a eunuch have it?! How can Gong Yushu, who has been competing with Wei Yunshu all his life, stand it?

So after getting the news, he rushed to ask the national teacher non-stop.

At this time, the national teacher glanced at Gong Yushu with a smile.

"You yourself have said what the problem is. You are now an unattainable uncle, he is just a eunuch, even if he has made immortal feats outside? In the eyes of the world, he is still a eunuch who can't get on the stage. ”

"Competing with such a person inevitably lowers oneself, and makes me say, why do you pay attention to him? If you turn a blind eye, just look at his final ending, isn't it done? ”

But having said that, the national teacher knew very well in his heart that it was impossible for Gong Yushu to ignore it. If he had this strength, he would not have been able to oppose Wei Yunshu for so many years.

Sure enough, Gong Yushu gritted his teeth with hatred at this time, and it seemed that he wouldn't listen to this. However, the original intention of the national teacher was not to ask him to let go of this grudge.

The more he looked at Gong Yushu, the more satisfied the national teacher felt, looking at this disciple, how similar he was to himself. A person like Wei Yunshu, who has always been on the top, dragged him down the clouds and stepped into the mud, which made people feel comfortable.

There is enough for someone who is so high up and does not eat the fireworks of the world, there is no need to have so many. Wei Yunshu is precisely the one who doesn't need it. So, he can only fade away.

However, even the national teacher himself didn't expect that Wei Yunshu had already fallen into such a situation, and he would still be able to get up. Speaking of which, this is even more disgusting.
