Xin'an City, Zhuang Palace.
The footsteps on the floor tiles have a constant rhythm.
It shows that the owner of the footsteps has extraordinary concentration and will.
Lin Zhengren walked in from the distant palace gate, walked closer, and bowed respectfully: "I have met the Prime Minister."
Du Ruhui, whose black hair was tied into a bun, nodded slightly and said: "Your Majesty is inside."
Neither distant nor close.
Lin Zhengren noticed from the corner of his eye that the tall and thin Fu Baosong was standing beside him. He was probably saying something to Du Ruhui earlier because he stood up straight.
"A man is solitary and straight like a green pine" is what the dean of Wangjiangcheng Taoist Academy said about him.
Lin Zhengren felt a little uncomfortable.
In his opinion, Fu Baosong, who is mediocre in talent and old-fashioned, does not have high achievements and does not work hard. However, he is always conceited and seems to be alone in the world. He does not know what luck he has, first the National Academy of Sciences
Offering wine, and then the Prime Minister Du Ruhui, lined up like a queue, looked at him with special eyes one after another.
But this discomfort did not show on his face at all. He even turned around and smiled kindly at Fu Baosong.
Fu Baosong lowered his head and returned the courtesy without saying a word.
Politeness belongs to propriety, while alienation comes from the heart.
He still couldn't learn the superficial skills of his senior brother Lin. Although he never said that Lin Zhengren was not good behind his back, he couldn't get close to him in person.
Lin Zhengren walked inside and inadvertently glanced at Du Ruhui's calm but profound eyes, and quickly avoided them to show respect.
But I'm thinking in my heart
Did this old fox realize that he had a part in Zhu Weiwo's treason?
Although he was sure that there was no evidence, as the prime minister, Du Ruhui did not need evidence in many cases.
Thinking about these things in my mind, I didn't stop walking and walked slowly away at my own pace.
When Lin Zhengren walked away, Du Ruhui glanced at Fu Baosong and asked deliberately: "Is he your senior brother in the City Taoist Academy?"
Fu Baosong bowed and responded, "It's Senior Brother."
"What do you think of this person?" Du Ruhui asked.
Fu Baosong bowed again: "Baosong is ignorant of other people's wisdom and knowledge. He is really not qualified to evaluate others."
Du Ruhui looked into the distance. The sky above Zhuang Palace was not bright and bright: "A gentleman does not hide the beauty of others and does not talk about the evil in others. You are unwilling to talk about it. Do you think it is because people have flaws and evil nature?"
"Baosong has no such intention." Fu Baosong bowed to the end and said seriously: "Please don't say that, Mr. Xiangguo."
Du Ruhui sighed in his heart. Both the National Academy of Ceremony and the dean of Wangjiang City Taoist Academy strongly recommended this young man. He also recognized his character, but he was too old-fashioned and lost his mellowness.
What kind of people does Zhuang State need now?
With all kinds of considerations in mind, he smiled on his face: "Gentleman Duanfang, you really can't bear to bully me."
The talent reserve of Zhuang State is something that Zhuang Court must consider now. An increasingly powerful Zhuang State needs pioneers and successors. Zhuang State's strength has been demonstrated through national wars, and what needs to be reflected in the future is potential.
.
To enhance the influence in the Tao vassal state, to counter the suppression of Qin and Jing, and even to counter the dissatisfaction of Jing State...all of these require people to see the future.
The meeting of the Yellow River is a very important opportunity.
That's why Zhuang Gaoxian summoned the young talents in the country one by one to encourage them personally.
Lin Zhengren, who is one of the Six Elites of the National Academy, is undoubtedly the top young monk in the entire Zhuang Kingdom. He has also been active on the Zhuang Yong battlefield, so he is naturally within the scope of this summons.
Passing through the palace guards standing solemnly on both sides, we walked into the empty main hall.
The Lord of Zhuang Kingdom was sitting on a dragon chair, casting a shadow from above.
Lin Zhengren walked forward calmly and greeted him with courtesy: "Lin Zhengren, a disciple of the National Academy of Sciences, pays homage to Your Majesty."
Zhuang Gaoxian narrowed his eyes slightly.
Originally, he no longer needed to consider the successor of talents.
I wish my performance is dazzling enough.
He was an undoubted talent, a young man that he and Du Ruhui both liked.
The only shortcoming is probably pride.
But the more proud a person is, the better they are in control.
He does not need to wish Weiwo to take power in the future, he only needs him to become the sharpest spear of Zhuang State and a flying flag of Zhuang State.
For Zhu Weiwo, he felt that he had been extremely favored.
Even at the critical moment of the national war, he followed Du Ruhui's advice and kept Zhu Weiwo at home, using him as a fire in the event of failure in the national war.
After He Batao died in battle, he had even decided to hand over the White Feather Army that defended Zhuangdu to this man!
But Zhu Weiwo abandoned him and left the country. I was so deeply indebted to the emperor!
What nonsense, what hatred.
He wished he could crush this boy to death with his own hands.
But what happened has happened, and no matter how angry you are, you can't undo it.
As the leader of a country, he must look forward.
The young man Dong A valued most during his lifetime was Li Jianqiu, whom he regarded as a kind of fire. The most dazzling warrior on the battlefield of Suolong Pass was Du Yehu, who followed the path of ancient military strategists and embarked on a dangerous path with a brave heart.
These two rising stars are both good, but they both came from Fenglin City in Qinghe County.
Zhuang Gao
, I will never forget it.”
It pierced a thorn in his heart.
Even though Du Ruhui has handled it properly, no one who heard this will spread the word anymore.
Although there will be no evidence about what happened in Maplewood City.
But he inevitably has some scrutiny for people who come from Maplewood City.
Among these people, will there be a second Zhu Weiwo?
Who is the person who killed Dong Ah?
And Lin Zhengren...
Lin Zhengren was also in Xin'an City on the day of Zhu Weiwo's treason. Wangjiang City is adjacent to Maplewood City. Could Lin Zhengren also know something?
"Do you know everything?" Zhuang Gaoxian asked from the throne.
As the leader of the country, he had a general judgment about all the young monks summoned this time, but he would not let anyone see his true likes and dislikes.
But after all, he couldn't let go of Zhu Weiwo's treason, so he couldn't help but deviate from the original conversation structure and still asked such a question.
Lin Zhengren's heart tightened: "I don't know what your Majesty is asking about."
Zhuang Gaoxian's voice was filled with joy and sadness: "Ask you about everything you should know and what you shouldn't know."
The king can ask vague questions, but the ministers cannot answer vaguely.
Because if you are not careful, you will deceive the emperor.
Lin Zhengren felt sweat on his forehead. He quickly weighed the pros and cons, gritted his teeth, and finally said: "I have a little guess, sir!"
Zhuang Gaoxian then knew that Lin Zhengren really knew the truth about the destruction of Maplewood City.
How did he know? Was it based on the same reason as Zhu Weiwo? Or was it a guess based on Zhu Weiwo's treason?
But this is no longer that important. As long as Lin Zhengren has a little brain, he will only admit the latter reason...
Zhuang Gaoxian waved his hand and stepped back.
"I have a question. From my mouth to your ears, no third party is allowed to know."
He asked quietly: "Wangjiang City is not far from Maplewood City. Lin Zhengren, don't you have the sorrow of a rabbit dying and a fox dying?"
With Zhuang Gaoxian's cultivation level, he really didn't need guards.
With the two of them alone together, Lin Zhengren felt even greater pressure.
Especially... facing such a problem.
But he didn't think too much, and hesitation at this time was his fault.
He decisively bowed to the ground: "I don't know why the rabbit dies and the fox is sad. I only know why the country is in front of the family! If the country does not exist, how can the family exist? To achieve a great cause, there is no need to sacrifice!"
"Even if it is..." Zhuang Gaoxian smiled rarely, whether it was relief or sarcasm: "Sacrifice you?"
Lin Zhengren kowtowed heavily.
The extraordinary monk didn't have to kowtow, but he still kowtowed very loudly.
"God has blessed our village with the birth of this immortal hero. For the sake of the village's eternal inheritance, I am willing to die with my heart and brains, so why not die a hundred times!"
Loyalty and boldness resound throughout the palace.
What a monarch!

ps: A new volume begins.
Let me tell you something by the way.
I personally am not a rigid person, and my driving skills are quite good.
But the readers in the readership come from all over the world and of different age groups.
I hope to give younger readers a relatively clean space for discussion. So when I first wrote physical works and established my first reader group, the unshakable group rules for each of my reader groups are: no driving, no driving, no
Quite ruthless.
I hope that readers who join the group will comply. If you are really not used to it, you don’t need to join the group. You can still give feedback to the author in the book review area. Basically, I will read every book review carefully. (So please try to be gentle in your comments and try not to hurt me.
)
Reader group, Chixin Camp 879927532, everyone is welcome to come and play.
