We're all acting, playing out one after another between our true selves and the selves hidden behind the masks, but sometimes we can't tell which one is the real self?

When the heavy makeup is removed and the curtain is closed in front of the stage, can you really recognize yourself in the face of the vanity mirror?

Xu Sanjin doesn't like to think about this, he is a person who doesn't like to use his brain, he might as well let him go to Miao Qingqing to chat about this.

The two drunks in the tavern don't think about this, the two of them have drunk more than a dozen jars of wine, and they are already unconscious, how can they have time to think about this!

Song Wen didn't think about this, no matter who would participate in this chess game, she wouldn't participate anyway, all she was worried about was Ouyang Wuji's body, this young man who didn't seem to know how tired seemed to be burning his limited life, which she didn't want to see.

Who's going to think about it, who's going to do it, who's going to mess up the ending and make a sigh?

Ten fingers of quicksand, flashy life. The night was cool in autumn, and the ground was red. I haven't remembered, how to talk about nostalgia, I haven't had, what to worry about?

Everyone has to stage this kind of vulgar drama that they can't bear to disperse at home, even though everyone is praying that it won't happen to them.

Ouyang Wuji slowly closed the chess game, he hadn't slept for a few days, just for a trick that he hadn't understood, he thought of countless tricks, countless broken moves, and finally, it was time to rest, although the sky was still bright.

His brain was drowsy, but he couldn't sleep, he didn't feel joy, even if he didn't understand the trick that he hadn't slept for a few days, he was sure to win the chess game, but he was still thinking, thinking differently, thinking about the chess game, thinking about life.

"If you are not careful, you will lose the whole game. "He doesn't like to leave flaws in others, he pursues perfection, he is a perfectionist through and through, his temperament, his conversation, his insight, and his chess skills. The only flaw is that he was not born in the family of the emperor, he was not born in the family of dignitaries, he, Ouyang Wuji, just went from childhood to youth in an unknown valley.

No one will comprehend the humility of your origins, because people are chasing the halo of nobility, and if you want to be famous in the world, the world will pay attention, you must ......

Ouyang Wuji closed his eyes, not daring to think about these thoughts that suddenly appeared in his mind, he was afraid, he was afraid that one day he would lose everything, a perfect person was also a person who did not believe in miracles, he believed in strength.

Powerful people are often very proud, because they have the capital, they can ride the fastest horses, drink the strongest wine, eat the most spicy dishes, marry the most beautiful women, and see the most beautiful scenery......

"Senior brother" remembered the knock on the door, as well as Xu Sanjin's voice.

"Is there something wrong? Ouyang Wuji asked lightly.

"Don't stuff yourself in the room day by day, you should breathe properly, I want to talk to the teacher..."

"Senior brother, I'm tired, I need to take a break. "It's simple and clear, but it's so unmistakable.

"Oh, okay. Xu Sanjin turned around stupidly and said to Song Wen behind him, "What did I say, he won't go out, you want to call him, how about it, touch the ash of your nose, let's go." Xu Sanjin said angrily.

"Senior brother, you go to Sister Qingqing, I suddenly remembered that there are some things that have not been done, so I will not go. Song Wen said with a smile.

"Hey, with junior brothers and sisters like you, I... Don't say anything, let's go. Xu Sanjin brushed his sleeves away.

Song Wen's smile slowly froze, her expression was disappointed and helpless, she didn't understand why Wuji fought so hard, and she didn't understand what she loved him? Could it be that the marriage in the previous life involved this life?

"Cause and effect are planted on the Sansheng Stone, and a flower and a leaf are always related," a middle-aged man picked up a leaf with his left hand and groaned slowly.

"Good poems, good poems, congratulations to the son for another good sentence. The maid next to him said with a smile.

"I'll show you the article I wrote one day, and if you don't, you can ask me. "The middle-aged man's interest is very high, and it is no wonder that in the early spring, when it is a sunny day, no matter how bad the mood is, there will be no problem.

"yes, then bring me a copy too. An old man's voice reached his ears.

"Father, father. "The young man's tongue is a little knotted.

"Haha, why don't you let me see a masterpiece?" the old man was still in high spirits.

"Isn't my father the most annoying to me reciting poems?" asked Sun Huaiyu puzzled.

"Well, did I say that? Haha, you can do whatever you want in the future. ”

"Father's interest is very high, could it be any happy event?" Sun Huaiyu asked cautiously.

"Happy, not to mention joy, in less than a month, I will make the Sun family a famous family. Sun Mou's eyes burst into flames.

He was so happy, because he was the biggest winner in this chess match, and even the emperor and his old opponent would be his pawns.

Unless there is someone who breaks the game, but who will be?

In comparison, unlike the intense drum of the Sun Mansion, the Zhang Mansion is still so unhurried and unhurried, this is not because of how much Zhang Wenzheng's words will change in the early dynasty, sometimes, try our best but it is difficult to change, we also have to learn a calm life, just like Zhang Wenzheng, no one can see how much worry his old face has. Qingqing won't realize that Zhang He is with his friend again, and he doesn't have many heirs, but he has really become a loner.

He felt powerless, he had this feeling a few years ago, Zhang He was a good official, but there was no city government, he was afraid that one day he would die and not die well, he suddenly envied Bai Yuan, and retreated bravely, which can be described as a kind of great wisdom!

"What is Taifu anxious about?" a gentle voice remembered in his ear.

"It turned out to be Mowgli, I thought you were in the room until the chess game. Zhang Wenzheng said with a smile.

"Let the Taifu see and laugh, I had a question a few days ago and got some insights today. Ouyang Wuji said.

"What is the nephew thinking about?" asked Zhang Wenzheng.

"If a person has no foresight, he will have near-term worries. Ouyang Wuji said lightly.

Zhang Wenzheng's face changed, and he forced a smile and said: "A virtuous nephew is an upright young man, and he has an unlimited future, so why are you anxious?"

"When I was a child, before I met my master, I was anxious about my three meals a day, and then in Chess Valley, at first I couldn't play my brother, I was anxious, and then I couldn't play my master, I was anxious, and when I arrived in Chang'an, I was anxious about the back of this game of chess. “

"Behind the scenes?" Zhang Wenzheng muttered, "What can be behind a chess game, I think the virtuous nephew is too worried." “

"I hope so. Ouyang Wuji said lightly, "I saw that Taifu's eyes were closed, so I should be a little worried." “

"It's okay to talk about the affairs of the court" Zhang Wenzheng sighed, and he told the court in detail what happened today.

Wuji pondered for a moment and said, "Taifu's plan is related to long-term stability, but it is not conducive to solving the urgent need. ”

"I also know, but I can't add taxes again, if I add more, it will inevitably not be a civil uprising. Zhang Wenzheng sighed heavily, "If your master is here, this problem should be solved." ”

"Taifu has never thought about it, in the world, the poor are getting poorer and the rich are getting richer, what is the reason? rob the rich to help the poor, and rob whose rich, and help whose poor?" asked Ouyang Wuji.

"This," Zhang Wenzheng was speechless for a while, he took it for granted, Ouyang Wuji just made this ideal a little more practical, and the problem could be seen. Whoever is rich, who is poor? You will naturally be happy if you let someone else give you money, but if you want to scatter all your wealth, will you be as comfortable as receiving money?

"Wuji has been going all the way, and he is also well aware of the people's livelihood and suffering, but what should be done? It is not a simple sentence that can be decided by robbing the rich and helping the poor, but it must be taken step by step, hoe by hoe, in order to clear the stubborn disease. Ouyang Wuji said sincerely.

"Wuji, please accept Zhang Wenzheng's bow!"

Wuji was startled, and hurriedly helped Zhang Wenzheng up, "Taifu, why is this?"

"I've lived for decades, and I've thought about it for decades, but it's not as good as you to find a hairy boy who can see clearly, see through, I'm old, I really hope that you can stay and do your part for the country. Saying that, Zhang Wenzheng couldn't cry, I regret it, I regret it shouldn't have been in the first place, I hurt your master.

"It's too serious, unscrupulous, immoral and incompetent, if you are an official, wouldn't it be a misguided country and a misguided people. Ouyang Wuji's heart was shaken, he wanted to enter the officialdom, but...

"Mowgli, you must not use chess skills as a way to enter the ranks. The master's words were like a wake-up call to pull him back.

"Okay, okay, it's really worthy of being a person from Bai Yuan, haha, well-deserved, you go, I don't want to see you. The old man's expression was very excited, and he gave the order to evict the guests.

Wuji walked alone on the streets of Chang'an, Chang'an's night market was ten miles away, the streets of Chang'an were also wide and dust-free, even the originally bright moonlight dimmed with the prosperity of the market, Wuji walked everywhere, he knew that he said Zhang Wenzheng's heart, and also talked about his sore spots, since he was the master's best friend, he felt the need to tell him.

"Alas" the world is so big, where is there a place to settle down?

"Why is Childe sighing," suddenly a voice remembered in his ear.

"The city is full of fireworks, why do you care about me alone. Ouyang Wuji said lightly.

"It's not me who pays attention, but Childe walking down the street, it's so different and noticeable. “

"Looks like I'm going to have another appointment. Ouyang Wuji smiled faintly.

"You can say no. The woman said with a wink.

"Do I have the right to refuse?" Ouyang Wuji looked at the crowd around him intentionally or unintentionally, if he guessed correctly, when he came out of Zhang's mansion, someone was following him, whether he was a friend or foe, someone accompanied him, after all, he was not lonely.

"Talking to smart people is to save trouble, son, please. The woman pointed to a carriage not far away.

"If you think about it really thoughtfully, then it is better to be respectful than to obey your fate. Ouyang Wuji didn't hesitate for the slightest, as if he was going to be invited to go out and be invited in a carriage.

"The patriarch is not mistaken, this person is a talent. The woman secretly praised in her heart.

"Drive!" With the shout of the coachman, no one would have thought that in the bustling and prosperous place, a person would leave inexplicably, not knowing where to go.
