Walking out of the Chengguo Mansion, Zhuang Xun was puzzled, should this be left.

"Stay, don't worry, I'll stay too."

Li Ruji's words still lingered in my ears.

If you don't make a decision, go home and ask your wife.

Thinking of Si Qinmi's self-reproach again, she would be sad if she made the wrong choice again.

Think about it yourself first, you can't put all the responsibility on Si Qinmi.

With such an idea, Zhuang Xun, who was not interested in pressing the road, wandered aimlessly on the street.

After the rebellion of the King of Xihe, there were fewer displaced people, and most of them were seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages.

The slightly empty street, walking on the main road, feels lonely, and I want to go home to enjoy the warm embrace of my wife.

Walking past the tailor shop, thinking that Si Qinmi agreed to buy her own clothes, and touching the money bag, one or two silver was not enough, or it was enough, but Zhuang Xun wanted to buy something better.

"Whether to go or not, whether to stay or not." I started thinking about the question of where to stay again.

Intelligence, I believe that Mrs. Jiang will not lie to him, and emotionally feel that Li Ruxi is also for her own good, and she is really entangled.

"Childe, fortune telling?" Fairy wind bones, long white beard, and a Taoist robe, it looks like a fairy.

Unconsciously walked to the fortune-telling booth, he had an urge to toss a coin, but was stopped by the fortune-telling Taoist.

If it was before, Zhuang Xun would definitely not know fortune telling, just kidding, what to do with this money.

But after accepting the setting of the reincarnation king and resurrection from the dead, fortune telling doesn't feel like it's a trick to cheat money like before.

"How much is a hang?" Zhuang Xun's heart was moved, and he stopped, his heart was also chaotic at present, and there was no certainty.

"One hangs five texts." The old Taoist priest smiled kindly, and Zhuang Xun rose a little favorable.

There are not many five texts, Zhuang Xun is moved, so let's take it as charity.

"Then ask the master to do a hexagram." Zhuang Xun stood in front of his booth.

The old Taoist priest of fortune telling took out a few copper plates and lined them up.

"What does the donor want?"

The old man smiled and pressed the copper coin in the palm of his hand.

"The future." Zhuang Xun wanted to ask to stay, but he felt that it was not good to be too direct.

"A gentleman works all day long, and he is not to blame." Lao Dao looked at the hexagram and said to Zhuang Xun.

"It's a good diagram, the donor's future is very good, like a virtuous gentleman, the dragon changes, the donor is like a faintly rising dragon, as long as he refrains from self-denial, there will be no fault."

Looking at the hexagram, Lao Dao continued to compliment.

"Is that so?" The words were very vague, but Zhuang Xun had a vague answer.

It's not that the donor, you have the routine of the bloody disaster, you can still trust it somewhat.

"The Guan Shi is full of luck, he is in Jinyun, he will be successful, and he will be promoted to the rank of knight, why is he worried about the future and fate, is the official position not satisfied?" Lao Dao asked with some doubts.

"No, the Taoist is also very powerful, I can see that I am about to be ordained, but for me, there are other path options, and I am hesitant." Zhuang Xun hesitated.

"Other countries are soliciting donors, or do donors have other ambitions?" Lao Dao stroked his beard with a smile.

"Other countries recruit it, it can't last long in Yu Country, and now I'm hesitating whether to give up the official title and seek self-preservation, or hold the official title to achieve the ideal retribution." Zhuang Xun said with a tangled face.

At present, the beginning of Yu Guo is already perfect, the right envoy of the festival, and the right to manage the army, and the good operation directly began to fight for hegemony.

However, the premise is to give time to operate, even if it is a year, promote, place, suppress, and complete the mastery of personnel.

With the breakthrough of the hidden country, all this has become the moon in the water, the fish in the dream, visible but difficult to touch.

"It depends on the donor's ambitions?" Lao Dao faced Zhuang Xun's vague questioning, pointing to the essence of the problem.

"Do I have a negative retribution?" Zhuang Xun looked left and right at the street, and the sparse crowd was mixed with some ragged people.

"I hope that the people under my rule will have clothes and food in all seasons, and will not suffer from displacement." There are more people who encourage, and Zhuang Xun has no shame when he says this.

To earn merit and satisfy the compassion of his travelers, this is his response to everyone.

"What an ambition, donor." Lao Dao's eyes widened, because judging that Zhuang Xun's words were true, and Zhuang Xun really thought so, it would be very remarkable.

This kind of ambition may seem very unproductive to modern people, just to eat enough, but as we all know, the people have eaten enough in recent decades.

"I think it's normal, it's nothing remarkable, shouldn't officials just take it as their responsibility to benefit the people? The people can't eat enough, what is it called to benefit one party? Zhuang Xun felt that he had already restrained himself with the minimum requirements, he was a modern mindset.

"Most of them are responsible for making money, and it is the well-being of the people of Yu to think so." The old Taoist priest knows Yu Guo too well, and talks about the people with these guys who are vegetarian in the corpse, and they ask you what benefits it is for the people to be full, and they are not emperors, where do they care about the lives and deaths of so many people.

"Maybe, I want to change this situation, but now I feel like I can't stay in Yu Country." In the last dynasty, it is unrealistic to find conscientious officials in itself, and it can be expected that the base is large, there are one or two, and special cases are special cases, and if you want to achieve this ambition, you can't be one or two clean officials.

"Is it because of political enemies? If you can't stand their persecution, according to the hexagram, there is no danger, as long as the donor is careful. "Lao Dao doesn't want to see such a good person give up Yu Guo, he has feelings for Yu Guo.

"No, they are all afraid of fighting with political enemies, what kind of official are they going to be, and they have to contradict the leaders when they go home to farm, not to mention being officials, it's good to defeat them, but the entire external environment is gone, and these struggles are meaningless." Zhuang Xun said vaguely.

After all, Lao Dao is not a person like Li Ruxi who saved his life, so there is no need to say too much to him.

"Is that so?" Lao Dao understood, and smiled at Zhuang Xun's hesitant appearance.

"Why is the Taoist laughing?" Zhuang inquired about it.

"The donor is worried that the broken Chengjie Pass will bring down the Yu Kingdom, right?" Lao Dao directly said what Zhuang Xun thought in his heart.

"Dao Chief, how could you ......" know, did I leak my words?

Zhuang Xun looked at Lao Dao in surprise, whether it was divination or words, he could know about it, which showed that Lao Dao's ability was indeed good.

"The donor's worries are clear, but Yu Guo can't die for the time being, and the donor can stay and display his ambitions." Lao Dao did not use ambiguous words anymore, but gave an affirmative answer.

"Dao Chief, can you ask why?" Zhuang Xun lacked a reason to convince himself, and Li Ruxi let himself believe her, but he didn't say the reason, he could only believe it emotionally.

"The old way doesn't know what war and politics are, the old way only knows how to look at the national fortunes, and the stacks of passes have been broken, but the national fortunes of the Yu Dynasty are still stable, which shows that the impact is not very great." It has not yet been affected by the emperor's self-beheading of the emperor's vein.

"National fortune?" Can such an ethereal thing also be used as evidence?

"The national fortune is more real than anything else, the rising national fortune is like a rainbow glow shrouding the imperial capital, the descending national fortune is like a rain and dark clouds, and now the national fortune of this Yu Dynasty is like a white cumulus cloud, which is extremely stable."

Back to the light, but after the longevity banquet, the country returned to normal operation, there were no major contradictions, and it also suppressed the rebellion of the king of Xihe and shocked the princes who were about to move.

"Yu Guo's national fortunes are stable?" Zhuang Xun didn't believe it, but it was not easy to say it directly when he saw that the old Taoist swore that he was a dead country, and it was almost a natural and man-made disaster.

"Bad is bad, decadent is decadent, but it can't die for the time being, this is the status quo of Yu Kingdom." When the dragon that maintains the fortunes of Yu is gone, then maybe a natural disaster is really coming.

"It's true, it's not the last straw yet, I don't know if Youguo can do it." Zhuang Xun nodded, at present, the people can still be patient, after all, they are all good years, and they can barely survive.

"The Chengdi Pass was breached, but it did not affect the fortunes of the country, which means that the Youguo cannot destroy the Yu Kingdom." The old way persuaded.

"There is no danger to defend in the Hedong Plain, and the army of Youguo has driven straight in." Zhuang Xun had heard this sentence countless times, and now it was his turn to say it.

"Donor, the old way is just to analyze from what you have learned, listen to it, believe it, don't listen to it, but for the donor, the choice should be cautious, follow the heart, be vigilant, with the virtue of the donor, no matter which country you are in, you will be respected." Lao Dao straightened his face and said seriously.

"I see, thank you." Zhuang Xun smiled, the other party was just metaphysics, pinning the answer to the question on metaphysics, and he was stunned.

took out the Wuwen copper plate, put it on the table, and Zhuang Xun thanked him and said, "Thank you, thank you." ”

"You're welcome, I hope to solve the doubts for the festival." Lao Dao accepted the copper plate.

Zhuang Xun turned around and left, took two steps and realized that the other party was calling him wrong, and turned around to see that there was still a hexagram stall, and the place where the old road was located was empty.

Met a fairy?

"Tired of the sun?" Zhuang Xun recalled this sentence and walked towards home.

Two people in a row said that they stayed, and Zhuang Xun made a decision.

The old way of divination is in the attic on the side, and at this moment he is wearing a purple robe and a purple robe, and he has returned to the dress of a national teacher.

"The unicorn among the people, under the rule of full food, is really an amazing vision." Feeling Zhuang Xun's ambition, Ge Tan stroked his beard.

"Let Lao Dao help you again, I hope you can make the right decision." How can there be such a miracle of luck, but I know that the Chengyu coalition army has not yet been dispatched, and I know what General Li Pingyuan of Chengguo is planning.

Turning into a wisp of green smoke and flying towards the palace, this is his privilege as the national teacher of the Yu Kingdom, and it is also the power given to him by the King of Yu.

"Is the national teacher here?" It was obvious that King Yu was a little happy.

He was looking at the chrysanthemums growing on the first mountain jade, there was no sunlight, just candlelight, and the chrysanthemums were still in full bloom.

"Your Majesty is in a good mood, not affected by the breakthrough of Chengdian Pass, this chrysanthemum is blooming well." Ge Tan chuckled.

"The forbidden army has not suffered losses, and the Chengguo army has not suffered losses, it should be General Li's strategy." King Yu also received the news yesterday, and it will take a few days for the normal news to be whipped or the birds of prey to deliver the letter, obviously Jiang Xianqi and King Yu have used abnormal channels.

"It's really a bold choice, give up Chengjieguan, hasn't General Li always been known for his stable style of play?" Ge Tan said with emotion.

At first, he didn't believe it when he heard that Chengdieguan was lost, but he already knew that Li Pingyuan was no longer in Yindu, and he should have arrived at the front line early.

"Chengguo does not have the "unity" of our Yu country, and the voice of the main battle faction and the main peace faction has always been there, if you can't seek a quick victory, General Li may be difficult to explain to the country. "King Yu has seen it thoroughly, he has always seen it very thoroughly, but he has no ability to change.

"No wonder you can only take dangerous moves, so it's okay to expel the people of Youguo from the land of Xihe as soon as possible." Ge Tan understood, every family has a scripture that is difficult to read, Chengguo seems to be stable, and the rule of officials is clearer than that of Yu, but King Cheng is obsessed with cultivation and ignores political affairs, and if he wants to do something, he has to compromise with the entire bureaucracy.

"The people of Youguo are gone, and the people of Chengguo may not be able to leave." King Yu sneered, and he looked at the Shoushan jade with his back hand.

"Your Majesty means." Ge Tan smiled bitterly.

"It's not interesting, there is always some price to pay for driving away the people of Youguo, either Hebei or Hexi." King Yu had already accepted this result, but he was a little unhappy in his heart.

"It's really hateful for the people of Chengguo to take advantage of the fire to rob." Ge Tan said angrily, blowing his beard and glaring, he also knew that he was just unhappy with King Yu.

"The people of Youguo are going to die in the country, and the people of Chengguo are just cutting meat, and they can still accept it." There are empathizers, and King Yu's mentality is better.

"This is also true, if the people of Chengguo do not tear a piece of meat, they will not give up." Ge Tan's expression became helpless, and it was impossible for the other party to help unconditionally, no matter how cold his lips and teeth were.

"Anyway, if you give it to those unscrupulous descendants, it won't be a few years later, and it will be the same sooner or later." When King Yu mentioned his heirs, he suddenly became indifferent.

"......" Ge Tan was also silent.

"Why isn't there a single gentleman? Those who are a little smarter are also those who have learned from me. "King Yu has a sense of hatred that iron is not made of steel, and disappointment is greater than everything.

You also know that you are a learner, and you also know that what you are doing is not a good thing, right?

Ge Tan stood aside, speechless, but King Yu had already given up, and he had persuaded enough, and he was in no mood to persuade him.

"National teacher, which prince do you say can inherit the unification?" King Yu was thinking about what was going on.

"I don't know." Lao Dao still wants to be a person in the next life, these people will ascend to the big treasure because of Lao Dao's advice, and Lao Dao should go to the Animal Dao in the next life.

"I don't embarrass you, this group of crooked melons and cracked dates is too embarrassing for people to choose." King Yu is also self-aware, and the national teacher doesn't dare to suggest that he understands.

"National teacher, didn't you come to me to ask about the loss of Chengdieguan." King Yu cut to the point, the national teacher rarely came to him, because the national teacher did not look at him well, he looked at the national teacher and felt ashamed, to avoid embarrassment between the two sides, and there would be less contact.

"It's about Zhuang Xiaolian." The relationship between the national teacher and King Yu does not need to be too twisted and turned.

"It's a pity that I didn't let him be the left attendant of the household department, but I have already used the right envoy of the festival as compensation, he is only twenty-three years old, and he is already a very high position." King Yu thought that Zhuang Xun had been promoted exceptionally, and of course Zhuang Xun also met his standards for talents and righteous people.

"Your Majesty is not protective, is it not appropriate to push a child into a place where wolves, insects, tigers and leopards gather?" Ge Tan asked.

"What does this mean, national teacher?" The emperor didn't understand.

"Zhuang Xiaolian came from a humble background, he was appointed as the right envoy of Hebei Province, a robber and thief on the road, and the officialdom of Hebei Province is fierce, how can he survive as an ordinary person?" Ge Tan asked King Yu rhetorically.

"Isn't he having something to do with Mrs. Jiang of Chengguo? Still afraid of these? King Yu smiled, quite meaningful.

"How much does it matter? How much do you believe, Your Majesty? How does Mrs. Jiang affect the situation in Hebei Province? Ge Tan asked three times in a row, and Wang Yu was speechless.

"National teacher, what do you want?" King Yu has an advantage, that is, it is not a place where he is dead and reasonable, and he changes relatively quickly.

"Anyway, Your Majesty doesn't need it, let's divide a few thousand forbidden troops and follow him to Hebei Province to assist in defense." Ge Tan said in a relaxed tone.

"Thousands? My own son has never given so much, and a thousand can't be more. King Yu subconsciously bargained and said, Ge Tan was right, Zhuang Xun is not a big family, and it is indeed dangerous to go to office alone.

Then to Ge Tan's old but charitable eyes, Ge Tan had not yet spoken, King Yu remembered what he had done over the years, remembered that he had asked Ge Tan to protect the village and inquired, and sighed.

"Two thousand, he can't afford to raise more people, and give him some rewards, so that he will be more comfortable, and two thousand forbidden troops will be enough for him to be free from those big clans in Hebei Province." The emperor compromised and said.

"Then the minister will thank Your Majesty for filial piety." Ge Tan bowed his hand, and his face did not change.

"Two thousand, double the earnings."
