When I met the person I wanted to see and wanted to go crazy, the faint madness in my bones had been suppressed, and I kept it deep in my heart, preparing to release it with all my strength the next time I saw that person again.

Lin Yi's face was very normal, and he stared at the old man opposite who kept eating his saliva. He didn't look at it with disdain at all. He looked at the old man quietly, and the old man ignored his gaze, and tasted the hard-to-eat delicacy regardless of his perfect image.

A simple wooden table, two people sitting opposite each other, seeing this extremely simple scene, no matter how many violent and manic people are filled in their hearts, they will involuntarily calm down and slowly restrain themselves from those things that should not appear in the world.

The emotions in this situation.

Finding the sword lying on the table, Li Liqing put down the duck wing of his left hand very restrainedly, and gently wiped it on the edge of his trouser leg a few times. After wiping it clean, he placed his left hand on the hilt of the sword, caressing the hilt.

The carved patterns and uneven texture did not bring the old man a soothing stimulation. It was not because of the sword hilt, but because the old man's hands already had many scars and dead skin, and the withered skin had lost its vitality.

Taking back his hand, Li Liqing sighed slightly: "This is an excellent sword. Old man, I have been traveling all over the world for many years, and I have never seen such a sharp long sword. I don't know who made this sword. It makes me sad."

I am itching unbearably, and I also want a long sword with the same handle material and the same casting method..."

After saying that, he stared at Lin Yi blankly. In response, Lin Yi laughed coldly.

Squeeze out a smile that makes people laugh or cry!

"If you want the sword left by our ancestors, old sir, I'm afraid you have to go to the bone pile to find bones that are qualified to cast this sword...and you may not be able to find it. After all, strangers are not allowed to enter.

!" Lin Yi lowered his voice and spoke extremely slowly. He tried to make his words full of simplicity to avoid giving an aggressive impression.

In fact, no matter what, it could not change the impatience and sarcasm in his words. Li Liqing did not feel any disgust at his words. This old man, this military god, was far more tolerant than the world thought. Although

There are some aspects of his behavior that are old and immoral, but generally speaking, they should be in line with the image of the kind and kind old people in the memory of his previous life. Any slight dissatisfaction can be ignored.

Generally speaking, Lin Yi thought that what he just said was a bit rude. He stood upright and saluted the old man, asking for forgiveness from the old man and his heart.

Someone once taught him that a gentleman should know etiquette and observe integrity.

Li Liqing waved his hand, with a serious expression on his face, and said, "I have said that in the empire, respecting the old and loving the young is a completely unworkable law, but there are always people who are willing to abide by it. This is not an encouragement to you, nor is it a right to you.

I appreciate the sincere apology you just made."

After hearing these words, Lin Yi rolled his eyes and bowed respectfully again. After finishing, he sat down.

Li Liqing was no longer as rude as before, his tone was calmer, and he nodded in admiration: "But your behavior is indeed very popular with old men like me. No, it should not only be old men like me, the vast empire

The territory even extends to the Western countries, and those old trash with evil intentions will still like this kind of behavior."

After that, I added another sentence.

"Even if they don't agree with this kind of behavior and occasionally use it to deceive, they still can't hide their heart that advocates kindness and their desire to meet such a polite spirit."

"It's like an empire, with rules hanging high in the sky!" Lin Yiduan sat across from him upright, thinking seriously and racking his brains. Finally, he remembered a metaphor, narrowed his eyes slightly, and said it straightforwardly.

"Hahaha!" Li Liqing laughed crazily. He covered his mouth and nose but couldn't stop his saliva from splattering. There was a glimmer of light in his eyes when he opened and closed them quickly. He gradually calmed down and said, "Your metaphor actually comes from a certain extent.

The words are indeed very suitable for me. However, the rules of the empire have never been hung in the sky, but actually exist in certain people."

"Official?" Lin Yi thought deeply, became interested, and suddenly frowned: "Or the emperor?"

Li Liqing was stunned for a moment, as if a painful scar had been uncovered. He snorted coldly and pretended to be cold. However, Lin Yi was not used to the old man's reaction. If he didn't speak, he would never speak, and he would never speak. He spent a lot of time in silence.

Long, he won't care.

Li Liqing had been cold for a long time, but he actually froze himself. He was an interesting old man who had been with interesting people for a long time. When he became interesting again, he naturally couldn't stand being left out and started to mumble.

"You and I can't explain clearly. The empire is so huge, how can we explain it clearly in just a few words?" Li Liqing raised his hand to pick up the bones lying next to the bowl. He lifted them up and looked at them. They were really clean when he chewed them. He couldn't help but blush.

He quickly put it in the bowl: "But...according to the two categories you mentioned, it is correct. According to the size of the region, the general manager of Hebei Province and other managers represent certain small rules, and the emperor who is far away in the imperial capital also

represents a larger rule, and so on.”

Lin Yi, who didn't quite understand the world, or wasn't clear about the rules of the world, sneered: "I was in the border army and in my hometown, and I often heard some impressions of the empire that didn't fit the ideas in my head.

Under such circumstances, the people are tough and good at expressing themselves. Even when facing powerful people, some weak people dare to fight."

"But after hearing what you said, old gentleman, I really can't imagine that those people in my hometown or in the frontier army, are they crazy? The emperor is the rule, and the officials are the rules, so why does the empire have rules? Rules

If the people who make the rules are selfish, the empire will become a mess."

Li Liqing squinted his small eyes that had never been squinted before. There was only a small gap in his eyelids, which looked like a piece of hemp rope for people to weave. He smiled lightly and said: "There is nothing wrong with your understanding. There are even countless mistakes in the past."

People have doubts about this article. What the empire depends on for its survival is the rule of law. As long as they abide by the law, people can choose a way of survival that suits them..."

Lin Yi did not speak directly, but just waved his hand to stop the words. The moment these words appeared from Li Liqing's mouth, the prototype of the empire and the lines hidden in the dark appeared in his mind, and the appearance and basic framework of the empire were

He could see it clearly. It was still the same country as in ancient times. It was a legal empire that governed the country by law. There was nothing new.

"His Majesty the Emperor is very powerful!"

Lin Yi said something inexplicable. Li Liqing was stunned at the time and didn't understand. After thinking for a while, he understood the meaning of this sentence and couldn't help but smile and shake his head. He was not a loyal minister in the pure sense. The only thing Li Liqing was loyal to was the country.

.Especially after that incident happened a few years ago, it had a greater impact on him. Now His Majesty's status in his heart has dropped again and again.

It is natural to say inappropriate remarks at this time.

However, he still did not choose to say it. Lin Yi's words were correct. If he thought about it carefully, he could also conclude that there were some mistakes. Of course, in Li Liqing's eyes, these mistakes were a very good thing...

"What I said today is very complicated, and what you understand today is also very complicated. But these are real things. There is no need to discuss or study them in detail. As long as you remember, within the empire, do not violate the Qin Dynasty.

Lu, even if His Majesty the Emperor comes in person, he still can't do anything to you."

Li Liqing suppressed a smile and glanced at the night sky outside pretending to be mysterious. The stars were bright and connected like a painting. He raised his withered and weak arm, stretched out his index finger, and pointed at the night sky outside.

"The universal truth is simple. In the past, it was not the lower class that was opposed, but the upper class. As for what the so-called upper class is, you can only understand it if you truly understand it. It is useless to say more, but it will appear empty."

Lin Yi's face was full of doubts, and his mind was very confused.
