Chapter Twenty-Four: A Parting Message
Fang Xiaoru was silent, and Zhu Yunwen's face was full of pain. Xi Zhen said slowly: "According to Mr. Xizhi, that Daoyan went to visit Mr. Xizhi, and he was definitely not talking about Buddhism. It's a temptation, and I want to ask Mr. Xizhi to go out of the mountain to help. Who can ask Mr. Xizhi to come out of the mountain to help? First, the current emperor, second, there may be a former rebel, and third, who is it? ”
Huang Zicheng Qitai thought of this, and couldn't help but feel a chill down his back, and cold sweat instantly rained.
Fang Xiaoru continued: "This person mentions poetry and Mingzhi, and wants to emulate the Xiao Liang Emperor's business, where does this Xiao Liang Emperor's industry come from? ”
Fang Xiaoru was about to say it, but Zhu Yunwen suddenly trembled, his face was full of pain, his voice was pleading, and he said with tears like rain: "Please don't talk about it again, sir, some words are rotten in your stomach." Regardless, I will always believe in the power of family affection. They will always be my dearest ones. ”
Fang Xiaoru didn't continue, just sighed softly. Huang Zicheng Qitai was very calm on the surface at this time, but he was furious in his heart, and he kept scolding the thief.
Xi Zhen glanced at Zhu Yunwen, his heart was very anxious, and he really sympathized with his brother. But the current situation does not allow him to say anything more. So Xi Zhen said softly: "In this case, let's all prepare, tonight's plan is still the same, everyone take a break, and hurry tonight." He waved his hand and motioned to Huang Zicheng, Qi Tai and the others, because what Zhu Yunwen needed most at this time was to be quiet and quiet.
Huang Zicheng and Qi Tai comprehended, and each went back to the room to prepare for the matter, while Fang Xiaoru motioned for Xi Zhen to speak elsewhere. When the two came to a secluded place, a smile suddenly appeared on Fang Xiaoru's face, and he arched his hand and said, "When I heard Brother Zicheng's introduction yesterday, I said that Xi Shaoxia has both civil and military skills, and he has amazing martial arts and wisdom. Looking at it now, it is worthy of its name, which makes me, a powerless scholar, admire. ”
Xi Zhen hurriedly returned the salute: "Mr. Xizhi is wise and far-reaching, walking in the rivers and lakes, although he has heard a lot of rumors about Mr., but he has always been on the side, and he has been able to see people at home recently, and he is very relieved." ”
Fang Xiaoru laughed and said: "You and I are like each other at first sight, heroes cherish each other, there is no need to be so polite." However, I envy my brother, and I envy it tightly. When I was young, I also wished to fight with the sword and manage injustice. I also thought that it was the biggest pleasure in my life, but later I didn't do it, but I followed the text. ”
Xi Zhen was also very happy, but what he was thinking about at this time was Guan Qing, so he asked: "Mr. has won the award, I don't know if Mr. is invited to come here, what is the so-called?"
Fang Xiaoru turned to a straight face, and said with his hand: "I very much agree with your inference just now, today, it seems to be peaceful, but in fact, the waves are everywhere. There are so many kings, all of them have military power, Dao Yan is a high-minded person, no matter who he assists, it will set off changes. ”
Fang Xiaoru paused for a moment and continued: "Since you have eight friendships with His Royal Highness, you should worry about it, this friendship is a responsibility, and the responsibility is heavy. He also said: "Now that the four seas are leveling, they are all holy and strong." After a few years, if the saint's youth is no longer there, or when the heavens are mourned, it is inevitable that the princes of the Quartet will be ready to move. Now that His Highness is young and known for his benevolence, how can he resist a man who is like a wolf and a tiger? Especially Zhu Di, the king of Yan, who has outstanding military achievements and has heavy troops. ”
Xi Zhen replied: "With all due respect, I don't hide it, I'm just a wanderer in the rivers and lakes, and I don't have any intention of the court." Now it is just a promise at that time. ”
Fang Xiaoru immediately asked, "Then dare to ask, what is a chivalrous person?"
Xi Zhen choked and didn't know how to answer.
Fang Xiaoru said: "The so-called chivalry is divided into big heroes and small heroes. The little one of chivalry is happy to take revenge. Lifting the three-foot green front, crisscrossing the world, robbing the rich and helping the poor, can ensure that one side is safe; It can determine the future, assist Mingjun, and support the community, and can ensure that a country is worry-free. Since the young man walks the rivers and lakes and is a chivalrous guest, should he be the little man of chivalry or the great man of chivalry? Where to go, I hope to think twice. ”
Xi Zhen muttered: "The great man of chivalry, for the country and the people?"
Fang Xiaoru said again: "The former Jing Ke assassinated Qin, although it was not successful, but it was for the Yan Kingdom, and the descendants praised it, this is the great man of chivalry." When the latter is a hundred and eight generals in Liangshan, he is the youngest of chivalry. Later, he conquered the Song Dynasty and conquered the Liao State, and at this time he was the great man of chivalry. Jun is superior in wisdom, and he must know the relationship. ”
Xi Zhen walked the rivers and lakes, but no one ever told him about the size of chivalry. He thought about it, although the master cultivated Wudang Mountain in seclusion, but he could also let himself find out the matter of Cixi Yunshan for the sake of the world's affairs, isn't he also a great man? Thinking of this, it was like waking up from a dream.
Xi Zhen arched his hand and said: "Mr. is really a god, and when he didn't meet Mr., he was just a guest in the rivers and lakes." Mr. Jinde's words are like a mouthful, so that the heart is happy and convinced, and the heart is also relieved! Please accept my bow. After saying that, he turned around and bowed down.
Fang Xiaoru raised his eyebrows, hugged Xi Zhen and said: "You already have a heart for the country and the people, but you have been confused and don't know what to do." How can I dare to accept your great gift? I just tell you the direction. ”
Xi Zhen thanked again: "This time Mr. is like seeing the sun, and I am grateful for this kindness." ”
Fang Xiaoru smiled and said: "Beautiful, beautiful, my trip was not in vain." Hahahaha, this matter of Cixi Yunshan is related to the safety of the world, and the people of Li are home. With you here, I can rest assured that I will go on a study tour. Farewell today, he will meet again one day. Please take your bid to you on my behalf. As soon as he finished speaking, he didn't even look back.
Xi Zhen woke up like a dream, and the other party's filial piety bowed to the back: "Mr. Gaoyi, Zhen remembers it in his heart, and hopes that Mr. will cherish it." ”
And back in the hall, Zhu Yunwen still frowned to himself, and muttered to himself: "We are all close relatives, you and I are uncles, I am your nephew, why are you so ruthless, want to put me to death?"
Seeing this, Xi Zhen comforted softly: "Don't worry, virtuous brother, the so-called human heart is unpredictable, and the supreme throne in the world always has people yearning for it." And be lenient and cautious. That's what Mr. Noshinao said to me. ”
Zhu Yunwen burst into tears, and said in a trembling voice: "Just for a seat, you can ignore family affection?"
Xi Zhen sighed lightly: "This seat is not an ordinary seat. This position can hold the ears of the world, and can have the world as wealth. And all that is under heaven belongs to the one who sits in this seat. Fame, fortune, power, tend to overwhelm a person's mind. Including his intellect, his concept of family affection. The so-called is in his position, and he is in his place. Besides, today's events are just the speculation of the foolish brother, and nothing has been confirmed yet. Brother Xian doesn't have to worry, his body matters. What's more, there is a foolish brother by your side, although the foolish brother is not talented, he can't let anyone hurt you. ”
Zhu Yunwen calmed down a little, looked at Xi Zhen with gratitude, and said, "Thank you brother for your comfort, how unfortunate and fortunate Yunwen is." If your brother is like this, what more can Yun Weifu ask for?"
At this moment, Xi Zhen's heart is very sympathetic to Zhu Yunwen. Fame and fortune in the world give rise to evil thoughts, and the birth of evil thoughts destroys human nature. But at this moment, Xi Zhen didn't know what to say, and it was up to Zhu Yunwen to do it at this time. So Xi Zhen whispered to Zhu Yunwen: "Everything is still unknown, let's rest for a while, we have to rush tonight!" After speaking, he shook his head helplessly and went to find Guan Qing.
"Brother Zhen, is Your Highness okay?" Guan Qing couldn't wait to ask as soon as she saw Xi Zhen.
Xi Zhen looked at Guan Qing and remembered the past, so he said: "Everyone in the world knows that immortals are good, but only fame can't be forgotten." Everyone envies him for being born in the emperor's family, but he is ruthless and the most emperor's family. If the world is ruthless, then what can it do even if it wins the world? Why can't people in the world put aside these senseless desires and fight for family affection, love, and friendship? Qingmei, do you say yes? Will anyone be willing to let go of these things outside the body?"
Guan Qing looked at Xi Zhen's burning eyes, as if he meant something else, thinking about his own affairs, bowing his head and saying nothing. But at this time, her heart was also extremely tormented and extremely contradictory. It is also extremely painful for a person to bury all his thoughts in his heart.
