When Yun Jing and You Xiao were communicating, Song Yan stood silently on the side. He lowered his head slightly and held a long knife in his arms. Perhaps he sensed the subtle atmosphere. He glanced at You Xiao from the corner of his eye, and then continued to lower his head and remain silent.
Wait aside.
Bai Zhi poured wine and vegetables for Yunjing with gentle movements. She carefully picked out the small thorns from the fish and put them on the plate, then fed them to Yunjing herself.
When she heard Yun Jing say that she disagreed, and You Xiao on the other side was smiling but with a cold look in his eyes, Bai Zhi paused slightly, glanced at him with beautiful eyes, and then continued to work on her own, like what
Didn't even feel it.
You Xiao's expression remained unchanged, but with a smile, his brows furrowed slightly, and many thoughts flashed through his mind.
'That bookboy named Song Yan, I had close contact with him that night. He has a late cultivation level and a very strong internal force. But just now he actually gave me a sharp aura for an instant. I am in the innate realm. It seems that the gun in his hand
Once the knife is unsheathed, it will pose a fatal threat to me!'
'And the woman next to Yunjing, who is plump and beautiful, looks weak, but has a late-stage cultivation, her inner strength is gentle, flexible and long. She is only a late-stage cultivation. When she just looked at me, the center of my eyebrows and neck
, heart, Qi sea and more than ten vital points, I actually felt a needle-like sting, as if being pointed at by a sharp knife, giving me a feeling that my heart would tremble and I would die. But the problem is, there is no visible pain on her body at all.
There's no way of hiding the sharp blade at all'
'And Yunjing himself, he...except for his outstanding appearance, he doesn't look like he has practiced martial arts at all, and his face is gentle. But the more he looks like this, the more he feels that he is the biggest threat. It's strange.
What a ghost!'
These thoughts flashed through his mind for a moment, making You Xiao feel a little confused.
He is an innate master. Although he is only in the early stage of innateness, he can still be called a master at this level. He is the kind of person who can go anywhere in the world. However, he is like this and has countless methods. However, the three people he faced are only the day after tomorrow.
Realm, actually gave him a strong sense of oppression.
This made him a little confused. Why is this happening?
In all his years of wandering around the world, he has never encountered such an evil thing.
What about the weak defeating the strong, leaping over the ranks to kill the enemy, etc. He has heard many stories like this. The problem is that he has never really encountered it once. Such things are just legends.
However, now, he estimated that he might have encountered this legendary monster!
There is one good thing to say, but the problem is that now there are three...
When did the world become like this, with monsters appearing one after another like leeks?
As the saying goes, the older you get, the less courageous you are. At this moment, You Xiao was a little bit stuck. Thinking that his whereabouts could easily be manipulated by Yun Jing, and being uncertain, he thought it would be better to restrain himself.
Sometimes being too arrogant will not end well.
His mind turned quickly, You Xiao looked at Yun Jing across from him and said with a smile: "Brother Yun, I have good intentions, helping the government catch thieves, and helping you get rid of the suspicion. Not only do you not think of me as a good person, but you are vaguely uncomfortable with it."
Yue means, this is a bit unreasonable, right?"
Hearing that You Xiao's tone had softened, Bai Zhi continued to serve Yun Jing unhurriedly, treating herself as a background, but her dagger secretly calmed down.
If You Xiao had turned his face at that moment, the seemingly weak Bai Zhi would have handed the sword to him immediately!
My own officials don't like to fight and kill, so as a woman, I naturally have to do it for myself. Although using force with others may make the officials unhappy, you can't let the officials do it themselves, right?
An official is a scholar, so of course he should be a quiet and handsome man.
Although Bai Zhi usually doesn't bring any weapons with her when she goes out, in fact she does, but she hides them very well and ordinary people can't even notice them.
This is due to the swordsmanship that Yunjing gave her after they separated. Now Bai Zhi has mastered the essence. She seems to be without weapons, but if the enemy is serious, she doesn't mind giving the enemy a surprise.
"Hidden Swordsmanship" was originally a swordsmanship that Yunjing gave to Bai Zhi that could be called a master even if its true artistic conception was achieved. This was actually a swordsmanship, but it had some small skills.
Among them, the skill of hiding a sword is very clever. After practicing it to such a high level, even if you carry a sword over one meter long, no one can see the slightest trace!
The skill of hiding swords is just a general term. In fact, this superb skill can also hide other things on the body without any trace...
The brilliance of this swordsmanship is that if the enemy does not know this swordsmanship, he will never know where the person who practices this swordsmanship will hand out the sword. The enemy who practices the hidden swordsmanship is clearly in front, but behind him.
The situation of hitting the sword is just the most superficial application of that sword technique.
Compared to You Xiao, Bai Zhi's cultivation level is not high, but she has been practicing Kezang Swordsmanship for several months. She is quite talented and has mastered the essence of it. It is with this superb swordsmanship that she can
She can kill enemies across levels, which is why You Xiao felt extremely dangerous before.
This swordsmanship was not figured out by Yun Jing, but was obtained from Feng Yi, the 'Chief of Qingniu Academy', who had gone to the capital city of Dali. At that time, Feng Yi had fully sublimated and had half a foot on the myth.
If Jing and Master Liu Neng challenge each other, how can their collection of swordsmanship be ordinary?
Although he has 'created' his own 'peerless swordsmanship' like the 'Sword Classic', in Yunjing's view, Tibetan Swordsmanship is still an extremely brilliant and rare swordsmanship. As for his own woman, good things are of course important.
Got her.
As for Song Yan, Yunjing didn't owe him anything. Although his cultivation level was not high, Yunjing also gave him several powerful martial arts skills. This is why Song Yan has always had the confidence to help Yunjing handle some trivial matters.
's reason.
Gently patting Bai Zhi's little hand to signal her to calm down, Yun Jing looked at You Xiao and said, "Brother You said something harsh, why should I be unhappy? It's just a case-by-case discussion. Everything must be reasonable. One person should do something and one person should take responsibility for it."
This principle makes sense everywhere, don’t you think so?”
You Xiao couldn't refute Yun Jing's words. After all, this was the truth. He had to think once again that he was sloppy. He originally only wanted to make up for the mistakes he made, but he never thought about causing trouble to others.
, after all, as a man in the world, he is used to being carefree and unrestrained. How can he usually think so much about changing his life from one shot to another?
However, at the moment, it is no longer as simple as being hasty. If you don't settle things, you will also get into trouble. After some exchanges, it is obvious that Yunjing is not the kind of person to be easy to get along with.
A scholar who is upright and has good character, and who becomes an upright official after joining the officialdom, is a blessing to the people. He deserves to be given a thumbs up and praised by everyone in the world. He is admired by everyone in the world.
Before this, You Xiao also admired people like Mr. Qingtian, but now that he faced such an upright person, he realized how entangled he was.
Can't we all just turn a blind eye and settle the matter? Why should we be so serious?
Thoughts flashed in his mind, You Xiao said tangledly: "Brother Yun, if you do something wrong, you will have to bear the consequences. This principle is valid everywhere, but let me say something that you may not like. As a human being, why do you have to be so serious? Sometimes
It's not good to be too pedantic. Why not do it with a little flexibility? Besides, I'm helping you. Having said that, theft is not a serious crime. No matter how large the amount is, it will be exile at best, not beheading.
, Besides, the 'culprit' of this theft case is already full of evil in itself. I arrested him and brought him to justice. This is to eliminate harm for the people and get the best of both worlds, don't you think?"
You Xiao's meaning is very obvious. Putting aside other factors, he settled the things he caused by himself. He removed himself, cleared Yun Jing's suspicion, and caught the real villain. He killed multiple birds with one stone. Hello, I
Hello everyone.
Yunjing had no doubt that he could catch the bad guy, and he was also the 'culprit' of the theft, with irrefutable evidence.
Normally, when things get to this level, if you keep everything on the line, you'll be fine, and there will be a step down for both sides.
Yunjing is not a single-minded person, but he has his own strength in his heart. From childhood to adulthood, the teachings given by his mentor Li Qiuerti are still vivid in his mind. Now that he has embarked on the path of a scholar, he faces similar problems.
, it must be dealt with from the perspective of a scholar. It is contrary to what he has learned to deal with it in the same muddy way.
The matter itself is not a big one, and it would not be an exaggeration to say it is a minor problem. Even if it is fooled into the past, it will be nothing more than that.
However, from Yun Jing's point of view, what if, if he becomes an official in the future and encounters similar problems again, can he still get over it?
If a person with evil intentions becomes an official, it will be a disaster for the people!
Yes, the matter itself is not a big deal, but in the future when Yunjing becomes an official and deals with sinners who are full of evil, what should he do if someone finds him and wants to make peace with him? He has already started like this, and he can still maintain the law in the future.
Is it fair?
The future is still very far away, and it seems that there is no need to consider it, but if a person cannot keep his feet on the ground, how can he talk about the future?
After pondering for a while, Yunjing looked at You Xiao and said, "Brother You, that's not how the accounts are settled. Whatever mistakes a person makes, there will be corresponding legal punishments. Even if he is a sinner who is cut to pieces, it is not him who did what he did.
If he does it, imposing an additional level of crime on him is also slander, frame-up, and frame-up. It seems that he deserves it, but it still violates the justice and majesty of the law, so let's not go too far."
After hearing this, You Xiao looked at the cloud scene blankly.
He understands what Yun Jing means. He is responsible for what he does, and there is no room for negotiation. As a man in the world, he does not understand Yun Jing's mentality of accepting death, but from Yun Jing's point of view, there is nothing wrong in itself.
After a moment of silence, You Xiao drank a glass of wine and asked Yun Jing with a smile: "Brother Yun, I am too lazy to say more. I just want to ask you, can you always maintain this so-called impartiality?"
"I can't guarantee it," Yunjing answered simply, without blushing at all, and continued: "Who can say clearly what will happen in the future? At least at this moment, I am worthy of my own heart. What others think about it is up to them.
At this moment, I just have to be myself."
With a dumb smile, You Xiao said, "Brother Yun, do you have double standards for me?"
"As I said before, who can say clearly what will happen in the future? People live in the present, and everything in the world is changing all the time. If we use the present to talk about the future, this assumption is simply changing the concept."
Yun Jing said calmly, not frozen by You Xiao's double mark.
"So you are escaping? Have you actually thought that you might lose the so-called justice you have now in the future?" You Xiao said with great interest.
He is not a scholar, and this is the first time in his life that he has truly discussed ideas with a scholar. He finds it very interesting, and even the theft case seems irrelevant.
Yun Jing smiled and said: "In the future, I don't rule out the possibility you mentioned, but at least it hasn't happened yet, right? Don't say anything about what I will do if it happens in the future. It's too far away.
It makes no sense to say this now.”
"Although as Brother Yun said, it doesn't make sense to talk about the future now, but I still want to know what you will do if you face an unfair situation in the future?" Some asked with a grin.
You are a bully, right?
Yunjing was speechless, but said calmly: "If such a situation occurs in the future, I can only say that people have selfish motives!"
"Hahaha, it's a good saying that people have selfish motives. I admire you, I admire you. You are indeed a scholar. He is so shameless that it makes you feel ashamed." You Xiao laughed immediately.
As soon as he said these words, it was like knocking over a whole boat of people with one stroke. His voice was not low, which made the scholars around him look at him with displeasure, but after all, it was none of their business, and no one got angry even after looking at it.
.
Just laugh at him if he laughs. It doesn't matter what the clouds and scenery are. It's not that he is thick-skinned. Being wise is the way to have both peace and harmony in the world.
Is it wrong for people to be selfish? It is not wrong. When it concerns yourself, if you have the ability and conditions, you should think about yourself as much as possible and try to develop the situation in a direction that is beneficial to you. It is just human nature.
To put it more seriously, life is not free, and everyone is the same. It’s just that everyone’s degree of “unfreedom” is different. When it’s time to compromise, you can’t do anything. No matter how unwilling you are, you still have to face reality.
Just like now, You Xiao did something wrong and wanted to get away with it, but Yun Jing did not want it. This is his lack of freedom, because Yun Jing has the ability to do this, but what if the two parties changed their identities, Yun Jing
From Jing's point of view, he doesn't have to compromise!
So this kind of thing is fair. The only unfair thing is the difference in status and ability between the two parties.
Even 'free and easy' cannot achieve true 'free and easy', so how can we talk about Yunjing and the others?
Smiling and laughing, You Xiao found that Yun Jing didn't react at all. He immediately had to admire the scholar's shamelessness, and then he also felt a little boring. What's the point of someone treating his ridicule as fart?
He curled his lips and said: "Now I'm in a very unhappy mood. I'm not in a good mood at all. I originally came here to have fun today, but now I'm not only happy but not looking for a way, I'm not happy anymore. Hey..., let's get back to the topic. Next, Brother Yun
What do you want?"
"We all know some things well. In my opinion, it is best for Brother You to surrender. In this way, the truth will be revealed, my suspicion will be gone, and you may be able to seek leniency..." Yun Jingxiao
road.
But before he could finish his words, You Xiao interrupted him and said, "Do you think I would do that? After all, everything depends on evidence."
Facing You Xiao's "If you want to reason with me, then I'll reason with you" expression, Yun Jing said calmly: "I expected your answer. It's just that I personally think it's best and most ideal for you to surrender."
The situation, then, is just evidence. It's just a little more troublesome, but the problem is not big, so the end result is the same. It's worth spending more time and thought. As the saying goes, those who are clean will be cleansed. Even if you and I are separated,
There are countless strange people and strange things in the dynasty. If I don’t get involved personally, the government will investigate it sooner or later. We have to trust the country. If the country is serious, many things will actually not be a problem at all. Brother You, are you right?"
His whereabouts were easily manipulated by Yunjing, and he couldn't see through Yunjing and the others. Yunjing also seemed to have Zhizhu in his hands. Plus, if the country really got serious...
Thinking of this, You Xiao sighed helplessly, and then asked with a flash of inspiration: "I obviously took your things that night, but in the end..."
"That's right, as you have guessed now, I took it back and it was wrong to steal something. At that time, you may have just been joking, so I didn't tell you, making you feel that you were indebted, and you were busy doing it as a punishment.
"Who would have thought that you would come here to commit crimes and cause such little trouble? Well, to be honest, your method of 'taking' other people's things still has merit," Yun Jing said with a smile.
"Brother Yun, are you laughing at me?" You Xiao said depressedly, thinking that he had been treated like a monkey a long time ago.
Shaking his head, Yun Jing said: "I definitely didn't mean to laugh at you."
You were obviously laughing, and you probably never stopped!
Youxiao, who thought he was a clever man, didn't even know how his belongings were taken away by Yunjing. You can imagine how big a blow this was to him.
After another sip of wine, You Xiao stood up and left, saying: "I admit defeat. I have already paid for the wine. See you in the future. You said that people have selfish motives. It is meaningless to talk about the future now. These words I
I can't refute it, I'm just curious, how long can you maintain your current attitude, when will you show your selfish side, and to what extent will you be selfish when you show it, I hope I can see that day."
After the words fell, You Xiao's figure had disappeared into the restaurant.
Yun Jing did not stop.
Bai Zhi glanced at the direction of the door, and then said in shock: "Guanren, he just left like this?"
"Otherwise", Yun Dingding nodded and smiled.
After thinking about it, Bai Zhi frowned and said tangledly: "But, it has been confirmed that he was responsible for the theft, so just let him go?"
Taking a sip of wine, Yunjing said: "Don't worry, Xiaobai, the problem has been solved."
There were no flashes of swords, no fights, just a dull conversation, and the problem was solved?
Carefully recalling the previous exchange between Yun Jing and You Xiao, for some reason, Bai Zhi always felt that the dull exchange was more...exciting than the head-on fight with swords and shadows?
All in all, it’s just unclear.
"Officer, I don't know much about it, so I don't understand it very well," Bai Zhi said with a blink.
Yunjing explained patiently: "Let's put it this way, after some exchanges between You Xiao and I, he should be on his way to the government to surrender at this time. If nothing unexpected happens, the government will post a notice that the theft case has been solved early tomorrow morning. He
I took the initiative to surrender to the law, admitted it personally, and gained both the stolen goods and the stolen goods. My suspicion is gone and this problem is solved."
"Just chatting with him, and then he voluntarily surrendered?" Bai Zhi said a little dumbfounded. There was no investigation and evidence collection, no fight to arrest, no prison interrogation and other processes. Bai Zhi always felt a bit dreamy.
Nodding, Yunjing said: "That's the truth. When talking to smart people, many things are actually that simple. Sometimes people just make things complicated."
"Since the official said so, it must be like this." Bai Zhi smiled and decided not to think too much. As a girl, sometimes being too smart is not a good thing. It is better to be dumber.
Song Yan was thinking to himself at the side: "Master, you can't tell me that you were on your way to surrender. What if there is an accident?"
Yunjing: "..."
When did you learn how to leverage?
Smiling, Yun Jing said: "If there is an accident, he will run away, but if there is no accident, I will keep an eye on him all the time."
Song Yan immediately said nothing. Even though his young master was sitting here, Yu Xiao had gone somewhere. Since his young master said he was keeping an eye on him, he must be keeping an eye on him and he would definitely not be able to run away...
After You Xiao left, the banquet in the restaurant to celebrate the five outstanding young talents was still going on. I didn’t know when it would end. Although he was a scholar, he was not from the local area and was not familiar with the people. Yun Jing had no intention of getting involved.
He, then got up and left with Bai Zhi and the others.
Yunjing and Bai Zhi returned to her small courtyard, while Song Yan went to the inn. He was still there after the salute. He needs to be brought here tomorrow. His wife couldn't stay at home and ran to the inn. Yunjing was so stupid that he did that.
Do.
After washing, go to bed and rest.
However, the nephrite is warm and fragrant in my arms, and Yunjing is a bit advanced at his young age.
"Officer..." Bai Zhi, who was in Yun Jing's arms, exhaled like a orchid.
Yunjing asked softly: "After last night...does it still hurt?"
"Well, it's not over yet, but it doesn't matter. I can bear it for a while and serve the officials, which is what I should do as a concubine. I'm fine, don't worry about me..." Bai Zhi said with a blushing face.
The person's injury has not yet healed. No matter how uncomfortable Yunjing is, he has to take care of the person's condition. After thinking about it, he looked at Bai Zhi's petal-like mouth, and then whispered something in her ear.
Bai Zhi's eyes widened immediately, she covered her mouth and said, "Is this still possible?"
"Ahem... So Xiaobai, you..." Yunjing said, his heart beating fast.
"Let me give it a try... It turns out that when senior sister told me that the mouth is only for eating, that's what she meant. Senior sister is so good at it..."
The flowers are full and the moon is full...
On the other hand, You Xiao went to the government to surrender in a depressed mood. He didn't want to do this, but he instinctively felt that if he didn't surrender, the result would be the same, and he would have to suffer a lot, so he still relied on
It feels like a choice has been made.
Now that he has surrendered, the next thing will be easy to handle. During the interrogation by the Yamen, he actively cooperated and confessed. Finally, he signed a confession and was banned from cultivation and thrown into a cold prison.
In view of his surrender and good attitude in taking the initiative to plead guilty, and the stolen goods had been recovered, You Xiao was finally sentenced to three years!
Three years in jail will definitely not be wasted in vain. He has innate cultivation and is a rare talent. Then he also asked if the government needed it, he could use it.
Use what you have learned to help, and then strive for a chance to reduce your sentence.
Although his cultivation level has been banned, You Xiao's physique honed by long-term martial arts training is still far superior to ordinary people. There is no way he would suffer in prison. In addition, because of his high cultivation level, he was locked up in a single room, but his physique was not enough.
Escape from a prison specially designed to hold martial arts practitioners like him.
Looking at the bright moon in the sky outside the iron window, I was laughing but on the verge of crying.
What kind of evil did I do? Why did I mess with that guy? It was such a shameful thing that I even got thrown into jail as a joke. It would be embarrassing to tell anyone.
"It's okay, it's okay. Although I was sentenced to three years, if I behave actively, there are still many opportunities to reduce my sentence. It can be up to half a year, no, it is possible that I can be free in three months!"
You Xiao, who was speechless and choked, could only comfort herself in this way.
