In the courtyard of the Wang's family, Zi Baifeng and Fujun sat opposite each other.
Fu Jun took the jade and played with it for a long time, but he still shook his head and said, "I can't see any difference." ”
Zi Baifeng shook his head, in this world, I am afraid that except for Zi Baifeng, few people can see that something is wrong with the jade without crushing it.
Zi Baifeng took the jade, two fingers, snapped, the jade shattered, the aura escaped, in this aura, a wisp of dead qi descended towards the aura, like a wisp of black line in the white smoke.
"This ...... Sure enough, there is a problem......" Fu Jun frowned, "Is it an exception?"
Zi Baifeng crushed another one.
"I'm still investigating what the harm of this jade is, if it's just a wisp of dead air, the impact is not big for the time being, but this jade is not naturally formed, but artificially caused, it took so much effort to make this jade and sell it to Xijing, which is very strange. And I have clues that this Qi Taixun is the person of the Nine Infants. ”
"Are you sure?" the latter sentence proposed by Zi Baifeng was more important, and Fu Jun frowned and said, "Qi Taixun doesn't matter, Li Qingyang is a very respected official of the Ministry of Industry, and he is a cousin of Li Shilang of the Ministry of War...... In fact, Li Qingyang may not be a big problem, but I am now working hard to do the work of the military department, so that they can take the opportunity of mobilizing the army to strengthen the deployment of troops in the left and close to Mengcheng. ”
Zi Baifeng was silent, he was messing around in Xijing, no matter how he was sloppy, no matter how excessive, he was just messing around, it didn't involve official business, and the prince just blamed him for a few sentences, and just laughed it off with those big shots, such as the previous conflict with Lian Yunping, which turned people's Zhongshan Courtyard into the Second Middle Court, and in the end, it was all over.
But when it comes to official business, it's different.
As the saying goes, smashing people's jobs is equivalent to killing their parents, if Li Qingyang is really offended because of this, it will be a mortal enemy.
"So we have to be cautious about this. I know that you are in your position and should be in charge, but it is important to perform your duties, but there is no need to sacrifice your own interests for this. Xijing is not Mengcheng, and you won't be able to turn around without you. "Fu Jun said.
Zi Baifeng was silent.
Yes, in fact, even if it is Mengcheng, wouldn't it be the same without him? Now that he is no longer in Mengcheng, isn't Mengcheng still in good health?
And this is Xijing, the entire Xijing is so big, there are so many strong people, I don't know how many people are more powerful than him, it is impossible for them not to discover the existence of Jiuying, and it is impossible for them to have no arrangements.
Could it be that you are too worried?
Fu Jun shook his head and said with a smile: "I came back to Xijing, but it was not the same as before, and I actually advised you to derelict your duties...... Think about this matter yourself, don't do anything you regret, no matter what you choose, I support you. ”
Fu Jun looked at Zi Baifeng, his connection with Mengcheng seemed to be getting farther and farther away, and he returned to Xijing with a sense of anger, his original intention and heart seemed to have been diluted by the trivial matters of the government these days, he stood higher than before, and the thoughts in his heart were different, and the land of a city and a pond seemed to be unable to let him remember it all the time.
But the young man in front of him is different, no matter where he is, his heart is still there.
In that haunting dream, the mountains and rivers are exhausted.
There are many more beautiful and rich places in this world than there, but only there can people have such a sense of intimacy and peace of mind.
Because it's my hometown, and I want to go back to my hometown no matter where I go......
And now, Xijing and Mengcheng are placed on the scales.
What the future holds, no one knows.
Some jade that contains dead air, if buried in the ground, what kind of harm will be caused, I don't know.
If you offend Li Qingyang, what kind of impact will it have on the garrison in Mengcheng and what kind of impact it will have on the process of negotiations, I don't know what kind of impact it will have.
Everything is unknown, and Zi Baifeng can only desperately look at the vague swaying pointer to see which side is more important.
In this world, there are always many difficult choice questions in front of us.
But if it's not so difficult to choose, where do you need to choose?
......
"Zeng Xian, now that you have climbed the high branches, the jade that you owed me before should be repaid. In an alley on the banks of the Bishui River, Zeng Xian was blocked by Dizhong.
Compared with the young monk a few years ago, Di Zhong was undoubtedly much older now, his eyes that were always full of enthusiasm were gone, replaced by an indescribable numbness and emptiness, his robes were a little worn, and his hands had become rough.
Zeng Xian secretly complained in his heart.
He borrowed Dizhong jade, or a few years ago, at that time he and Dizhong were still in the most relaxed state, they also came to Xijing from other places with a sum of savings, and lived a profligate life in Xijing, he once went to buy some elixir, forgot to bring jade, Dizhong paid for him lavishly, saying that it was lent to him.
After that, Di Zhong said that there was a better chance to leave, and left this area, but he didn't expect that after a few years, he would see Di Zhong here again.
It seems that Di Zhong has inquired about his condition, and even knows that he has "climbed a high branch", but in fact, he is still unable to make ends meet, Zi Baifeng's one-month probationary period is like a big stone pressing on his body, he doesn't know if Lu Dao will be kicked away by Zi Baifeng after a month of hard work, and the reason is just an illusory sentence: "You are not arrogant." ”
But even if Zi Baifeng was willing to accept him, he began to hesitate.
These days, he has heard too many rumors, about Zi Baifeng, about Lian Yunping.
Lian Yunping is the next candidate for the head of the Zhongshan faction, the most powerful Xiuzhen sect in Xijing, and one of the people with the highest status in the entire cultivation world, and if he offends the Zhongshan faction, it will really be difficult to move an inch in Xijing.
What if he really became Zi Baifeng's doorman and was regarded as a thorn in the side of the Zhongshan faction?
Thinking of the obscenity of those Zhongshan Sect disciples, he felt chills all over his body.
Should I confess to Zi Baifeng and say that I don't want to be his guest anymore?
He was also very entangled in his heart for a while, so he involuntarily came to this gathering place for drifting cultivation, and then he would be caught by Di Chong.
"Di Zhong ......" Zeng Xian showed a smile that was more ugly than bitterness, "I will definitely pay you back the jade, but I don't have it right now, I will definitely pay you back when I have it, okay?"
"Haven't you already become a guest of the big man?" Di Zhong showed a puzzled look, at this time, Zeng Xian had a vague feeling of seeing the young monk back then.
"It's just a trial, and I've decided to pass up on this opportunity. Zeng Xian said.
Di Zhong shook his head, and then showed a flattering smile, this kind of expression would never appear on the high-spirited young man in the past, he grabbed Zeng Xian's arm, and said, "Zeng Xian, then pay me back a little first, I can't even pay this month's aura tax now." ”
Reiki Tax ......
Zeng Xian didn't know what he said, he opened his empty pocket, and smiled miserably at Di Chong, the jade of the aura tax was gone.
In fact, he has been evading the aura tax for two months, and the Prison and Punishment Department has only one way to deal with his drift of evading the aura tax, either forced labor or compulsory collection of jade, and then directly drive him out of Xijing and not be allowed to come back.
Zeng Xian turned around and left the bank of the Bishui River in a daze, stumbling and not knowing where he was going, he specially found a place where no one was going to get in, as if he wanted to avoid the crowded crowd that made him feel more lonely, away from all the distractions of the world.
If he could turn back time, he felt that he would not choose to go down the mountain, but would choose to meditate in front of the master's lonely grave for the rest of his life.
In this world, what is worth paying so much for? your own dreams, your own dignity, your own future?
Is it worth it? Is it really worth it?
Zeng Xian leaned against a sunny courtyard wall, then slowly sat down on the ground, raised his head, and let the sun sting his eyes with tears.
Everyone always has a time when they are extremely vulnerable, and now, there is no doubt that Zeng Xian has touched his fragile nature.
Just as Zeng Xian sat down on the ground, in a daze, the small stone ran past him like a gust of wind, and the two monks chased after him from behind, roaring angrily as they chased back: "Little rabbit cub, you stand for me!
"Why don't you stand still?" the little stone head did not look back, and the wind was blowing under his feet, and he ran fast.
"Look at the marble!" Xiao Shi turned his head suddenly, the slingshot in his hand was full, and the slingshot flew out, shooting straight at the front door of a person, who hurriedly dodged over an iron plate bridge, but he was even more angry, and roared: "Stand for me! Stand still!"
"Your grandfather Shi won't stand ......" Xiao Shi didn't finish his sentence before he paused.
Ahead, another monk turned around and gambled on his way.
"Little rabbit, you can't run away now!" the three monks, one in front of the other and two behind, smirked and blocked the path of the little stone.
Xiao Shi looked left and right, and although he had been cornered, his eyes were still purring, as if he was thinking about something.
"Little bastard, you're going to die today!" one of the monks said viciously, "Yunping Gongzi let you go, and you don't have the same knowledge as you, you dare to come and make trouble, see if I don't pull your skin off!"
"Phew, the surnamed Lian stole my words, I want to get my words back!" As Xiao Shi spoke, he suddenly waved his hand, and the slingshot in his hand shot out, and the stone that Zi Baifeng wrote the words "disease" and "quasi" specifically for him flew out, instantly cutting through the space in the middle and hitting a person's face.
"Ouch!" one of them burst into blood, covered one of his eyes, and screamed. 20023301.html
