Chapter 144: Black Ice Terrace and the Legalists
Li Shaobai has been a little annoyed recently, first being pestered by Wei Yu'er, who pretends to be gentle, all day long, and then being warned by the city lord's wife inexplicably. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Li Shaobai came out of the City Lord's Mansion and was invited by Yin Jiange to drink.
The two came to the largest restaurant in the city, Xinyuxuan, and entered a quiet private room.
Yin Jiange ordered a pot of rice wine and ordered a few more side dishes. After the rice wine and side dishes were served, Yin Jiange instructed the little guy to retreat first and not to disturb, so he drank with Li Shaobai.
Rice wine is not intoxicating, even Li Shaobai, who rarely drinks alcohol, drank three glasses in a row.
After a heart-sessed drink, Yin Jiange said the reason for inviting Li Shaobai to drink this time.
Yin Jiange lowered his head and said cautiously: "Shaobai Daoyou, there are clues about the matter that framed you last time. ”
Li Shaobai's eyes moved, and he also asked in a low voice, "What clues?"
Yin Jiange motioned for Li Shaobai to stretch his ears over, and said even more quietly: "Have you ever heard of the Black Ice Platform?"
Li Shaobai felt a little familiar. He thought about it carefully, so it was.
Li Shaobai's heart moved, and he whispered: "Dao Chief, what you are talking about is the Black Ice Terrace, the secret service agency of the Qin State. Last time, the man in black who framed me was the one from the Black Ice Terrace. ”
Yin Jiange saw that Li Shaobai knew something, so he further explained: "Yes, it is the black ice platform of the Qin State. Daoyou also know that Yongcheng is located in the west of Wei, adjacent to Qin, and is the western fortress of Wei. Since the Legalist Western Sect Taishang Elder Shang Ying, after the Qin State changed the law, the strength of the Qin State has increased day by day, and the ambition has also continued to expand. Even the Mo family, who had always supported the Qin State, was frightened by Qin Jun's ambitions and turned to leave the Qin State. The Black Ice Terrace is nominally a spy agency of the Qin State, but in fact it is a scout agency of the Gongsun faction of the Western Sect of the Legalists. ”
The so-called Legalist faction is divided into two major factions, the East and the West.
The Western School is the Qin and Jin Legalists, who pursue the law, art, and potential as the guideline. Internally, it was divided into the Gongsun faction of the Qin State, led by Shang Ying, the Wenhou faction of the Wei State, led by Li Kui, and the Shen Xiang faction of Korea, whose leader was Shen Buxian.
The Eastern School is the Qilu School, which attaches equal importance to law and teaching. This faction is not as influential as the Western faction, but their leader is also famous. The state of Qi has a cautious Xuegong school of law from the Tao into the law, Wu Qi who killed his wife and preached the Tao, and Le Yi, the general of the Yan State.
In terms of strength, the leaders of the Legalists are no less than the other sons. In terms of power, the power of Legalism is no weaker than that of Taoism, Confucianism, and Moism. However, the Legalists are based on the country to which they are loyal, and there are many small forces, and the various factions within themselves are constantly fighting with each other. This makes the Legalist family called one faction, but it is actually a multi-faction, and it is far inferior to the other schools in terms of cohesion, so it is not called the same as the three schools of Taoism, Confucianism, and Mo.
Just like Wei Sheng, the city lord of Yongcheng, he is also a member of the Legalist family, but he is a member of the Wenhou faction. The Wenhou faction was based in the Wei state, and the Gongsun faction was based in the Qin state. The states of Qin and Wei bordered each other, and the two countries often fought wars over issues such as land and population. The Wenhou faction and the Gongsun faction are both the Western faction of Legalism, but they fight to the death.
After Li Shaobai heard that Yin Jiange had analyzed the intricate relationship between them, he thought to himself, the grievances between the Legalist Wenhou faction and the Gongsun faction, and the contradictions between the Qin and Wei states are my business, what's the use of telling me about this.
He couldn't help asking, "Why did the Taoist tell me this?"
Yin Jiange provoked Li Shaobai and said, "Fellow Daoist, don't you want to take revenge on the Black Ice Platform that framed you?"
Li Shaobai smiled and said, "Dao Chief, this is just a misunderstanding, now that the misunderstanding has been resolved, I have nothing to take revenge on." However, as a member of Taoism, the Taoist chief should have been pure and had few desires, away from the red dust and strife. You are so active in joining the WTO, are you not afraid of the three thousand red dust polluting the Dao heart?"
Yin Jiange couldn't help but show a wry smile on his face, and said helplessly: "I can't help it. ”
Li Shaobai became interested all of a sudden, and quipped: "As a disciple of the Taoist Shushan faction and the grandson of Wen Shi Zhenren, who in the world dares to give you an order?"
Yin Jiange picked up the wine glass and drank the rice wine in one gulp.
He said helplessly: "It's the Wenshi Zhenren you said, my grandfather." ”
Li Shaobai suddenly realized and said with a smile: "I understand, it was Wen Shizhen who saw that you practiced all day long and didn't understand the world, so he asked you to go down the mountain to refine your heart, right?"
Yin Jiange nodded and said, "Daoist friend is right, that's what happened. ”
Yin Jiange asked again: "Daoyou, you really don't want to take revenge on the person who framed you?"
Li Shaobai sneered.
"It's not that I don't want to, but this water is too deep, I don't want to participate in the internal disputes of the hundred schools of thought, and I don't want to be a victim of the two open and secret battles of the Qin State and the Wei State. ”
Yin Jiange smiled bitterly: "It's still a fellow Daoist who can see it thoroughly, so it's okay not to participate." It's hard to get out of the way like I have now. ”
Li Shaobai asked curiously: "What does this sentence mean? Could it be that Daoist friends have some tricks that they know and want to blackmail you." ”
Yin Jiange's face was as bitter as a bitter melon, and he said: "It would be nice if it was a handle, this kind of trick is just a small trick between mortals." I owe Wei Yu'er a favor to her daughter, and I made a vow to protect the safety of the city lord and his wife for her. ”
I see, Li Shaobai said secretly.
This world is not like the earth, where you can swear casually. The law of cause and effect in this world is extremely strict, and if the vows made cannot be fulfilled, retribution will really come.
Li Shaobai couldn't help but express sympathy and understanding for Yin Jiange, and he was the same, because he was in a dilemma now because of his indiscriminate vows.
Li Shaobai sighed in his heart, he had known that this was the case, so he shouldn't have made any wishes for the same in the first place.
Li Shaobai patted Yin Jiange's shoulder to show understanding.
Yin Jiange asked again: "Daoyou really doesn't plan to care about this matter. ”
He wanted to double-check.
"No matter. Li Shaobai said.
Yin Jiange said: "This matter is more related to Miss Wei Yu'er, and Daoyou doesn't plan to care." ”
Li Shaobai thought of the shadow that haunted him all day long, and his heart moved.
He said, "Well, tell me, what the hell is going on?"
Li Shaobai saw Yin Jiange's sinister face, and explained: "Don't get me wrong, I just don't want to be pestered by that crazy girl all day long, I just want to go out for a walk." ”
Yin Jiange smiled wickedly: "I didn't say anything, why are you in a hurry to explain." ”
He then looked serious and said, "Last time, because of the matter of Daoyou, the nails of the Black Ice Platform in Yongcheng were pulled out a lot. Along the way, we found that Hei Bingtai seems to be planning some action against Yongcheng recently. ”
Li Shaobai got straight to the point and said, "Let's talk straight! What do you need me to do?"
When Yin Jiange heard that Li Shaobai agreed, he said with a happy face: "It's great for Daoyou to join......!
