After the court meeting, King Zichen taught his son a lesson, and Lin Xiao renewed his vows.
Prime Minister Shui Jing returned to his house with a slightly gloomy expression.
The words of the Tai Chi Holy Court envoy seemed to stimulate the water mirror.
"Finally, someone brought it up?" When Shui Jing returned home, there was a trace of ugliness on his face!
"Husband, are you back?" a pleasant-looking woman called.
Liu Yanyan, Shui Jing's wife, was the ninth princess of the Daxuan King of the Daluo Heavenly Dynasty in the small world in the past. Due to her marriage in her previous life, Shui Jing had been haunted by dreams. Later, she asked Zhong Shan for advice, and with the help of Zhong Shan, she got her wish.
"Yeah!" Shui Jing nodded, with a heavy expression on his face.
Liu Yanyan served Shui Jing and sat down. Shui Jing frowned and thought deeply. Liu Yanyan also squeezed Shui Jing's shoulders.
"Father, are you back?" A man in white robe suddenly walked in outside the house.
The man was dressed in an elegant manner, and his feather fan was gently swaying like a water mirror.
"Mother is here too!" the man in white robe immediately asked for advice.
"Jiang'er, haven't you been looking for your father? He's back, tell me!" Liu Yanyan said.
"Huh?" Shui Jing was slightly surprised.
"Yes, mother!" Shui Jiang immediately smiled.
"Then should I go out and let you father and son talk?"
"No, you are my mother. Although what I want to talk to my father is very important, it will be fine if my mother listens. Besides, she can also help me persuade my father! Everyone knows that my father loves my mother the most!" Shui Jiang immediately said
said.
"You are the only one who is sweet!" Liu Yanyan immediately smiled.
"What's the matter?" Shui Jing looked at his son.
"It's about the way out for our family!" Shui Jiang immediately set up a barrier so that only three people could listen to the sermon.
"The way out for our family?" Shui Jing frowned.
"Father, today, don't pretend you don't know anymore. Ever since I became sensible, I have known that my father is the smartest man in the world. I have no memory of the Holy King. After all, I was still young when the sky was opened, but I
You know, the smartest person in today's court is his father. His father must be aware of everything the child has done in the past few years, but he just hasn't revealed it!" Shui Jiang said.
Shui Jing did not refute, but looked at Shui Jiang coldly and said, "I can pretend that I didn't see what you did. Why, you want to point it out today?"
"Yes!" Shuijiang said firmly.
"Colluding with the envoys of the enemy and plotting against Da'ao, what do you want me to accuse you of? Treason?" Shui Jing's eyes glared, and a violent aura shot out.
"Husband, Jiang'er is still young!" Liu Yanyan immediately comforted her.
"You're still young? If you were a mortal, you'd already have your great-grandson in your arms, so you're still young? Colluding with all major enemy dynasties, this is a serious crime!" Shui Jing said solemnly.
"Without father's support, what would I do?" Shui Jiang suddenly said angrily.
"Do I support it?"
"Yes, I think my father knew about it when he first came into contact with the foreign court, but why didn't he stop him? My father also wanted to leave a way out for the sake of our Shui family!" Shui Jiang said unconvinced.
"Alas!" Shui Jing sighed slightly.
"Father, a messenger from the Tai Chi Holy Court has already said that as long as my father is willing, he will be promoted to a second-grade official when he arrives at the Tai Chi Holy Court. I think it will not be difficult to regain a new duke with my father's ability!" Shui Jiang
He said immediately.
"Asshole, I am a minister of Da'e. How can I think of the enemy when Da'e is here?" Shui Jing glared.
This is Shui Jing's bottom line. Shui Jing can tolerate Shui Jiang's contact with outsiders and leave a way out for the family, but his own bottom line cannot be broken. He promised the Holy King!
"Father actually knows better than anyone else that the Holy King is dead. If he were still alive in that situation, all the ancestors and immortals in the world would be ashamed. It has been more than a hundred years since the Holy King opened the sky. How can he surpass the ancestors and immortals in more than a hundred years?
Can the Holy King produce miracles? Are so many strong men blind?" Shui Jiang said in a deep voice.
"Holy King?" Shui Jing sighed slightly.
Zhong Shan died. On the day Shui Jing got the news, he announced in his heart that Zhong Shan was dead, because according to Shui Jing's probability calculation, Zhong Shan had no chance of surviving. He persisted to this day, on the one hand, for the slim hope.
, what’s more important is the original promise to Zhong Shan.
I am not a treacherous person, and I cannot do that kind of thing. The destruction of Da'ao is right in front of me. While Da'ao is still there, Shui Jing should continue to work hard and do his best. Four years later, Da'ao will be destroyed, and Shui Jing will also die.
We can only find another way out.
Therefore, Shuijiang found a way out on his own, and Shui Jing turned a blind eye. Unexpectedly, his son would talk out of the conversation today. Obviously, his son was a bit 'tender', but who was the father and son?
"Now there are rumors from all over that King Zichen is going to change the dynasty. Father, don't you feel aggrieved? King Zichen has ruled Da'ao for more than a hundred years, and he has more than half of his trusted ministers. He can change the dynasty at any time as long as he wants.
! We have been busy for a long time, but why don't we do things for him? Father, are you willing to be his minister?" Shui Jiang said solemnly.
"I think that with my father's talents and father's arrogance, I will never recognize him as my master, because he is not worthy. In the small world of the past, his talents were not as good as his father's, his achievements were not as good as his father's, he was pedantic and stubborn, and he did not know how to adapt. Father
It is absolutely impossible to surrender to him!" Shui Jiang continued.
"He didn't change his dynasty!" Shui Jing shook his head.
"It's not obvious. If we don't change the dynasty and regroup the fortune, Da'ei will definitely perish within four years. He will definitely change the dynasty through the so-called 'general trend', and it has been spread outside. I even heard it from his son Shui Quan.
I heard it." Shui Jiang said.
"He is him, and his son is his son! I can be sure that Shui Wuhen will never usurp the throne!" Shui Jing shook his head.
"But what if?"
"Without any eventuality, Shui Wuhen is impossible!"
"Then can I make a hypothesis?" Shuijiang said helplessly.
"Yes!" Shui Jing nodded, acquiescing.
"There is no other possibility now. There are only two outcomes. One is that Shui Wuhen will change his dynasty, and the other is that Shui Wuhen will persist until the end and his father will be a slave for another four years!" Shui Jiang said.
"Jiang'er, why are you talking to your father?" Liu Yanyan glared.
Shui Jing was not angry. Although the words between father and son were a bit unpleasant, it was still better than the hypocritical treatment from outsiders.
"What do you think?" Shui Jing asked in a deep voice.
"I think my father has three ways to go!"
"oh?"
"One, join the Tai Chi Holy Court now; two, with my father's ability, I can leave here and start another day; three, I think with my father's ability, I can definitely win Da'ao in front of Shui Wuhen, he can't beat you
Father, come and change the dynasty!" Shui Jing said excitedly.
"You bastard!" Shui Jing glared.
Supporting Da'ao was Shui Jing's bottom line. His son actually used him to change the dynasty? No wonder Shui Jing wasn't angry.
"Husband, calm down!" Liu Yanyan said immediately.
"Mom, please advise Dad, what did I say wrong?" Shui Jiang cried out aggrievedly.
Liu Yanyan shook her head and said, "This family belongs to your father, and I listen to your father!"
Shuijiang felt depressed for a while.
"Father, the Holy King is dead, and you have served Da'ao for five years. That's enough!" Shui Jiang said anxiously.
"Who said the Holy King is dead? Do you believe those mediocre people's words?" Shui Jing scolded angrily.
"Father, I know you understand!"
"There is still a chance that the Holy King is alive. Although it is very small, it is still possible!" Shui Jing shook his head.
"What's the probability? Don't you think the probability is ridiculous? What's the difference between it and zero?" Shuijiang shouted.
Shaking his head, Shui Jing said: "As long as Shui Wuhen does not usurp the throne, and as long as Da'ao is still there, I will be the prime minister of Da'ao. Usurping the throne? Don't even think about it!"
Seeing that he couldn't explain to his father, Shuijiang frowned and thought for a while, and advised him, it's not going to work anymore, it's better to be violent!
"Father, don't you feel aggrieved these years? In Xiaoqian World, Shui Wuhen is not as talented as you, his achievements are not as good as yours, and he is not as good as you in anything. He is even slightly inferior to General Lin Xiao. Why is the Holy King granted the title?
He is a king, why don't you lead the world in Da'ao? How can Shui Wuhen be so virtuous and capable?" Shui Jiang said.
Hearing Shui Jiang's words, Shui Jing frowned slightly. Indeed, for more than a hundred years, although Shui Jing didn't say it, he did have some injustices in his heart. Why was Shui Wuhen?
But my inner injustice has never affected my work. I can clearly distinguish between public and private.
"He is so stubborn and pedantic. He is far worse than my father. Even if he does not change the dynasty, he will lead Da'ao to destruction. Father, am I right? Such a person is not worthy of your taking orders from him...
…!" Shuijiang said.
He was so stubborn and pedantic. Upon hearing Shui Jiang's words, Shui Jing's pupils suddenly shrank.
For a moment, Shui Jing seemed to have realized something, while Shui Jiang was slightly stunned.
"Shui Jing, you are the most knowledgeable person in Da'ao. I can rest assured that you will serve as the head of the civil service!" Zhong Shan said.
"Thank you Holy King!"
"I believe in you! When I leave, I will leave you three words. I hope you will keep them in mind, especially when great changes occur." Zhong Shan said.
"I must keep this in mind. Please speak clearly to the Holy King!" Shui Jing said.
"Three words are 'why'." Zhong Shan said meaningfully.
Why! Why? Just these three words? Shui Jing couldn't understand for a moment and raised his head to look at Zhong Shan.
"I know you don't understand it now, but if you remember these three words, you will understand the meaning when you actually use them!" Zhong Shan said.
This is what Zhong Shan said when he left. Shui Jing is an extremely smart person. In fact, not long after Zhong Shan left, Shui Jing understood what "why" meant.
Why, 'why Shui Wuhen', not himself! He has higher moral integrity and talent than Shui Wuhen, why would the Holy King trust him so much? Shui Jing had already guessed what Zhong Shan was referring to, but he just couldn't figure it out.
Why.
The Holy King is suspicious of himself? No! The Holy King trusts him very much, Shui Jing can be sure of this.
Shui Wuhen is more loyal? That’s not right! At that time, my loyalty was not inferior to that of Shui Wuhen.
Follow the Holy King for a long time? No! Lin Xiao has been with the Holy King for a longer time!
Why is that?
"I believe in you! When I leave, I will leave you three words. I hope you will keep them in mind, especially when great changes occur."
Especially when great changes occur, the Holy King is referring to now?
Before the great change, even if he knew what the Holy King was referring to, Shui Jing did not understand what he was referring to. Only when the great change occurred could he truly understand it.
I finally understood the strengths of Shui Wuhen. It was known in Xiaoqian World that Shui Wuhen had strengths that none of the top ten legion commanders had, but no one knew about them, not even Shui Wuhen himself. Only Zhong Shan could see it.
It came out, so this is it?
Stay calm! Stay calm with your loyalty to Zhong Shan!
In these years, although I have been busy with Da'ao affairs, I have long believed that the Holy King is dead, but Shui Wuhen has always been pedantic and stubborn and calm. This is not only a matter of self-cultivation, but also a kind of nature.
I didn't calm down about the death of the Holy King and let my son find another way out, but Shui Wuhen has always held on to that spirit and never slackened off!
"Why? Holy King! I finally understand!" Shui Jing said with a wry smile.
"Husband?" Liu Yanyan asked strangely.
"Shui Wuhen, I'm not as good as me!" Shui Jing let out a long sigh, but a gentle smile appeared on his face.
"Father? What?" Shuijiang asked in surprise.
"Jiang'er!" Shui Jing suddenly looked at Shui Jiang.
"Um?"
"Kill the enemy envoys in your house at the gate of Nantian tomorrow!" Shui Jing said with a glare in his eyes.
"What? Father, kill them? This, this is not to offend the Tai Chi Holy Court...!" Shui Jiang said in surprise.
"I just want you to kill them. You and I both made a mistake once. We can't make another mistake. We will kill them at Nantianmen tomorrow. Mingzhi!" Shui Jing said solemnly.
"Mingzhi? But, but...!"
"No but, from tomorrow onwards, you will stay at home and are no longer allowed to come into contact with people from the enemy's dynasty. If you come into contact, I will break your legs!" Shui Jing said solemnly.
Shuijiang never expected that his father would change so quickly. How could he change so quickly?
"Father, what's going on with dad? Tell me, what's wrong with me?" Shui Jiang said without giving up.
"Nothing will happen to the Holy King. The Holy King had already calculated this day before he left. Everything was taken into account by the Holy King. Hahahahaha. Do you think I am a genius in arithmetic? There are some things that are simply impossible to calculate.
It cannot be expressed by arithmetic!" Shui Jing said with a wry smile.
"Father?" Shuijiang showed a trace of worry as he watched his father talking to himself.
"King Zi Chen? King Zi Chen is well-deserved, Holy King, Shui Jing has learned the lesson!" Shui Jing bowed slightly in the direction of the palace.
Then looking at Liu Yanyan, Shui Jing said: "It seems that I am not omnipotent!"
"In my heart, you are!" Liu Yanyan shook her head and comforted.
Shui Jing shook his head: "I'm not, the omnipotent is the Holy King! I almost went astray. When the Holy King comes back, our family will go to apologize to the Holy King together!"
"Yeah!" Liu Yanyan nodded gently.
Shuijiang was still confused and couldn't figure out what the east, west, east, and west were. What was going on? Why did his father suddenly change?
