Chapter 124: A Chess Piece
He Ran thought that the place where the water was drawn was not far away, but he didn't expect that there were more than three miles back and forth, Feng Chuying was very embarrassed, and wanted to ask him to bring the bucket over several times to carry water, He Ran pointed to the two buckets, Feng Chuying was even more embarrassed, He Ran picked it very steadily, the same distance, the same bucket, but not a drop of water splashed out.
"When I started to carry water, all I had left was a bucket of water." Feng Chuying talked about her troubles frankly.
He Ran said with a smile: "Actually, we are about the same, I was like that for the first time I carried water, and later I learned that I also have skills in carrying water." ”
"The big boss has also picked up water?" Feng Chuying checked He Ran, and really determined that the pearl recovered by the He family was said to have been valued by He Jinghong, so he became the heir of Jinghong Building.
"Yes, my great-grandfather and grandfather both liked to grow vegetables, and every time I went to see him, I had to work with him in the vegetable field, not to mention carrying water, I even picked up dung." He Ran said.
Feng Chuying smiled, she was hugged wrong when she was born, she said that her great-grandfather and grandfather should be the old man on the adoptive parents' side, it seems that the original rumor that her adoptive father was a hermit still has some basis.
Of course, Feng Chuying would not have thought that the people in He Ran's mouth were her great-grandfather and grandfather in her previous life, her great-grandfather was an old general who had been dominant, and when she left, her great-grandfather was already one hundred and five years old, and he could still stand in front of the vegetable field and scold his seventy-year-old grandfather so much that he didn't even dare to raise his head.
He Ran sighed silently in her heart, she has been here for so many years, and they are all gone
Back in the temple, she handed the water to the little novice, who didn't give any face, and said to Feng Chuying: "Master Feng, look at this donor, this is called carrying water, you are scooping water." ”
Feng Chuying laughed: "The first time I picked up water, you said that I was dripping, and now it has become scooping water, at least it means that I have improved, right?" ”
The little novice was confused by him: "From dripping water to scooping water, this is progress?" So if this donor picks water so well, doesn't he need to make progress? ”
He Ran said with a smile: "Of course, we must also improve, such as picking two buckets of water at a time, and improving into three buckets of water and four buckets of water." ”
The little novice was even more confused: "Is it really possible to pick up so much water at once?" ”
Watching Xiao Shami walk away, He Ran looked at Feng Chuying again: "Mr. Feng's injury has already healed?" ”
Feng Chuying nodded and shook his head: "It's good and it's not good." ”
He Ran asked, "Cai Jie's father and son are dead, doesn't Mr. Feng plan to go back?" ”
Feng Chuying raised her head, looked at the vast sky, thoughtfully, her eyes slowly moved down, and fell on He Ran's face: "The big boss has a plan?" ”
"Yes." He Ran readily admitted.
"King Xiao Zhao is in the hands of the big boss?" Feng Chuying asked again.
He Ran smiled: "Scholars don't go out, but they know the world." ”
Feng Chuying smiled: "Is the big boss ridiculing Feng?" ”
"Mr. Feng wouldn't be so fragile that he couldn't even listen to a joke or two, right?" He Ran asked rhetorically.
Feng Chuying was stunned for a moment, and then laughed: "It turns out that in the eyes of the big boss, Feng lives in the monastery, is he psychologically fragile and escaping from the world?" ”
"Otherwise, could it be that Mr. Feng is still here and wants to become a monk?" When He Ran spoke, a pair of wonderful eyes looked at Feng Chuying for a moment, as if they saw his heart.
Feng Chuying's smile was a little bitter: "Feng, Feng just doesn't want to go back"
He Ran looked at him, and a trace of compassion flashed in his eyes: "I have been to Fenzhou, I have killed the Jin army in Fenzhou, and I have also seen the Jin army forcibly recruit strong men, kidnap people's daughters, slaughter people, and burn villages. I also rescued some villagers and took a few children with me, but with my own efforts, I could only save those dozens of people, and that day I stood on the hillside and saw the fire in the distance.
In that piece of fire, there used to be a century-old winery, the joy of Tianding, the newlywed Yan'er, the children and grandchildren around the knee, the four generations in the same house, and the family business that several generations saved money to buy, but it was only an order, and all this was swallowed up in the raging fire.
At that moment, just like you, I felt small and powerless."
"No, it's different!" Feng Chuying interrupted her, "We are different, you are a bystander, and I am a participant in everything, in the past five years, I have participated in almost all the decrees of Jindi, and I have a share in everything you see!" ”
He Ran smiled: "Cai Jie's father and son killed the people for the sake of the disaster, and you instructed it?" The King of Jin used the method of killing to connive at the Cai family to become bigger, and let them destroy themselves, which you also taught? ”
Feng Chuying was stunned and looked at He Ran in shock: "You see it?" ”
"I can see it, although I don't know what grievances there are between King Jin and the Cai family, but Cai Jie's father and son have today, it was caused by him, he first fed the appetite of the Cai family, raised their ambitions, made them notorious, lost their morality to the people, lost their help to the gentry, and even did not hesitate to force Mr. Feng to be bait, so that the Cai family became the target of the public!" He Ran said coldly.
Feng Chuying's face was pale, and He Ran, the woman who had not officially met him for the first time until today, actually saw all this clearly.
But even he was a fan of the authorities at the beginning.
He Ran continued: "The first time the King of Jin was injured was your idea, Mr. Feng, in order to make the imperial court underestimate the enemy; And the second time he was injured, it was his own idea, the purpose was to let Mr. Feng enter the game! ”
The second time the king of Jin was injured was by a personal soldier, whose family was ruined by the Cai family.
That time, Feng Chuying really entered the game, he knew that Cai Jie would not listen to persuasion, but he still went to Fenzhou alone.
On his first night in Fenzhou, he was seriously injured and almost lost his life!
Feng Chuying has a very high reputation among the gentry and scholars in Jindi, and Cai Jie did not deliberately hide his injury, on the contrary, he thought that it was a feat to let Feng Chuying return with a feather, and this matter spread quickly in Jindi, and the crowd was angry for a while, which made Cai Jie's already bad reputation even worse.
He Ran continued: "Although King Jin has the chance to win, he still underestimated the extent to which the Cai family's father and son died, Cai Fanying should not have killed the third prince of Wu, but the king of Jin wanted to force Wu Dongming to stand on the opposite side of Cai Jie at this critical moment, but once again he did not control the fire, and used too much force, directly forcing Wu Dongming to rebel.
Wu Dongming started a new stove, King Jin lost an arm, and Cai Jie became a completely wasted chess player, so his death time came. ”
He Ran said all the calculations of the King of Jin in a few words, and among these calculations, Feng Chuying, who was highly respected by him and cited as a confidant, was only one of the chess pieces. (End of chapter)
