readx;? Of course, Elder Feng could see Kong Rui's embarrassment, but he didn't care, he just beckoned him to drink and eat. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

Kong Rui held back for a long time, and finally mustered up the courage to say: "Uncle Shi, the disciple has no plan to spend money, and now he is shy in his pocket, and I hope that Uncle Shi will give the disciple some time, and the disciple will go out to earn a little silver and come back." ā€

Elder Feng smiled and said, "I know you brought thousands of taels of silver with you when you went out, how did you spend it so quickly? Today is the first time we have stayed in a good inn and eaten good food, so you don't want to invite me?"

Kong Rui's face was red to the base of his neck, and he said in a snort: "Uncle Shi, it was the disciple who didn't have a plan and gave a lot of silver taels to those poor people, so he ran out of money. ā€

Elder Feng said, "It's a good thing that you care about the poor people, but you shouldn't put yourself in it like this. ā€

Kong Rui hurriedly nodded and said, "The disciple knows that he is wrong. ā€

Elder Feng said again, "What do you think of the deeper problems behind this?"

Kong Rui said: "The disciple needs to make a plan and arrange these daily expenses before he can consider other things. ā€

Elder Feng asked, "What else?"

Kong Rui was stunned for a moment, and didn't come up with anything else, so he had to say: "The disciple is foolish, and I also ask the master for advice." ā€

Elder Feng asked, "Don't these poor people think about it?"

Kong Rui was even more embarrassed, and said, "Uncle Shi, we have only walked a few places, and in just a few days, the disciple's thousands of taels of silver are gone, and if you want to think about it, you should need to think about it in a different way." ā€

Elder Feng nodded and said, "Of course, your ability is so great, although you spent a few thousand taels of silver to give to those poor people, how much do you think that money will help the poor people in these counties? Not to mention all the people of the Great Yan Country." ā€

Kong Rui seemed to understand something, and said: "The disciple seems to understand some truths, just like that Nangu County, if Shizhi County is well governed, maybe the entire Nangu County will become rich, and there is no need for a person like a disciple to spend money to help them." ā€

Elder Feng said with some approval: "Yes, governing a big country is like cooking a small fresh, this is true for a small county town, and it is the same for my entire Great Yan Country. Just as your spiritual mountain is different from the other branches, you should be very clear about this. ā€

Kong Rui was a little strange and said, "Uncle Shi, didn't you say that our sect must not interfere in the affairs of the earthly world?"

Elder Feng smiled faintly and said, "Not interfering doesn't mean not influencing, at least we can favor those who are better in power." ā€

Kong Rui thought for a while and said, "Actually, it is impossible for us to break away from the world, a family like the Lin family is the cornerstone of our sect. ā€

Elder Feng was approving, and said, "It seems that you have understood a lot of things, and it is in vain that I took you out for a few days." ā€

Kong Rui hurriedly said, "Thank you for your advice." ā€

Elder Feng took out some silver taels from the storage ring and gave them to Kong Rui and said, "These are all for you, you have to arrange them well." Kong Rui hurriedly thanked him and stretched out his hand to take it.

The two went all the way to the north, and in a few days they arrived at a large battlefield, which was a decisive battle between the pagoda faction of the Great Yan Kingdom and the imperial court, and the two sides were killed and wounded, and the scene was unbearable.

Kong Rui also killed thousands of Qixuan soldiers in one battle, but it is still a small thing compared to such a battle in which tens of thousands of people died at every turn. Kong Rui couldn't bear it in his heart, and asked Elder Feng: "Uncle, now that the people who died in the battle are all from my Great Yan Country, can we let everyone use less swords, less orphans and widows, and parents looking forward to the return of their children." ā€

Elder Feng said: "These things are not for us to take care of, it is because the power of this country is not easy to come by, so those in power can know how to cherish it more and benefit the people; if this power comes too easily, these people often do not know how to cherish it, and the people will suffer more." ā€

Kong Rui nodded as if he didn't understand, and Elder Feng didn't want Kong Rui to stay here longer, so he hurriedly led him to continue north.

The two walked for a few more days, and then they came to Jingping City, the largest city in the northern region. This Jingping City is a royal city of several generations, which looks very magnificent, and it is also a tall city defense, easy to defend and difficult to attack. But as soon as Elder Feng and Kong Rui looked at this area, they knew that there was also an exchange of troops here, and the Pagoda Sect and the imperial court had hundreds of thousands of soldiers in this area, and they were in a confrontation.

Elder Feng didn't want Kong Rui to see more scenes of soldiers meeting each other, after all, his heart barrier had just passed, and he still wanted to see something meaningful to him, so he thought about leading Kong Rui to simply turn around and go east, go directly to the sea, and look at the openness of the sea, so as to go over and see the killing battlefield; Kong Rui was naturally obedient, and now according to his request, he wanted to return to the mine valley to worship his parents. Kong Rui also knew that Elder Feng didn't like this kind of killing scene, so he followed Elder Feng to drive away the clouds.

To the east of Gyeongpyeong, there is another big city called Kyopyongseong, which is right by the sea, and it is also the closest place to the sea in Gyeongpyeong.

At noon on this day, Elder Feng and Kong Rui were driving clouds to pass through the sky over the Beijing Acropolis, Kong Rui suddenly saw a flag on the ground that he was very familiar with, so he quickly took a look, only to see a red flag embroidered with a black dragon that looked quite lame, which was actually somewhat similar to the dragon flag he saw in the mining valley.

Kong Rui hurriedly beckoned Elder Feng and said, "Uncle Shi is slow, the disciple seems to have seen the old man, can the uncle allow the disciple to go down and meet them?"

Elder Feng, a scheming master who doesn't know how many years he has lived, of course knows that anything can be transformed into a teaching to Kong Rui, especially the things that have a deep memory of Kong Rui, of course, it is the best, and when he heard him say that there is an old man below, he naturally agreed to go down and see him.

Elder Kong Rui and Feng found a remote place to land, and walked to the location of the banner. When I got closer, I saw that the flag was the same as the flag in the mine, and maybe the soldiers from the mine were stationed here. Kong Rui hurriedly stepped forward, found the soldier at the gate of the camp and asked, "This big brother, are your soldiers and horses from the Suishan Mine Valley in the Northland?"

The soldier looked vigilantly, looked Kong Rui up and down, and said, "Who are you, how do you know?"

Kong Rui was overjoyed and said, "Then please trouble the eldest brother to go in and report it, and say that Kong Rui wants to see Zhao Er." ā€

The soldier looked dazed, shook his head, and said, "Who is Zhao Er?" I don't know if there is such a person. ā€

Kong Rui was stunned for a moment, how could he say that the soldiers and horses from the mine valley didn't know who Zhao Er was? This was too unbelievable, so he immediately asked again: "Then do you know Yang Liqing and Zhang Yuanzhi?"

As soon as he heard Yang Liqing, Zhang Yuanzhi, and Zhang Yuanzhi, the soldier immediately looked solemn and said, "Of course I know, I'll report it." After saying that, he hurriedly walked in.

After a while, I saw a large group of people hurriedly coming out of the barracks, and the three people at the head were Zhao Er, Yang Liqing and Zhang Yuanzhi, followed by some of the leaders who were originally in the mine valley.

Everyone saw from a distance that it was Kong Rui, and they were all overjoyed, and hurriedly quickened their pace and rushed over.
