"Don't worry, Marquis Yun. Yan Song didn't see anything in the bright light. I can see better in the dark. The master is from the Yun family and I won't tell anyone. Mr. Wu Gu has done me a great favor and I dare not not repay it. I am a slave."
Let’s just say goodbye.”
When Yun Ye watched Duan Hong walk out of the house, Wu Tu appeared silently behind Yun Ye. Following Yun Ye's gaze, he looked at Duan Hong who was leaving and said, "He must have been tortured these past few days. If
If he dares to speak out, I guarantee that he will not survive for an hour. You can see that his hands were shaking when he left the Yun family, and you can tell that Xiaomiao has been staring at him.
Eating pears and peeling pomegranates is just to cover up my panic. Xiaoye, this person is nothing to worry about. His visit today shows that he wants to forget about this matter. Or, kill him, I will not feel comfortable. "
Wuji never trusted others before, but he became a little more kind after arriving at the Academy. When he wanted to kill someone, he would go to the Qinling Mountains to find some tigers and leopards to practice his skills with. However, sometimes there would be headless cases in the capital, so it goes without saying who did the killing.
It was Wu Ji, because at the right time Yun Ye could hear Wu Ji talking to Liu Fang about the causes of death.
The sunshine is very good today. Only Yun Ye, Wu Shi, Liu Fang, Liu Jinbao, Lao Zhuang, and Lao Jiang are guarding the garden. No one can go near the garden without the owner's order.
Three jade plaques were hung on a shelf. The three of them waited silently for the moment when the sun was about to set. A unicorn ghost head appeared on the white paper behind the jade plaques. Liu Fang quickly drew with a pen.
After seeing this ghost head, the second Yinglong with wings appeared on the white paper, with simple and vigorous brushwork. The third ghost head did not look like a real object, but more like a mask without eyes and mouth.
There are four words written on the mask: "As far as the east is concerned".
Seeing these four ancient seal scripts of the Spring and Autumn Period, Liu Fang put down the pen in his hand and said to Wuyu: "It turns out it's Bin Meiren!" After saying this, those images disappeared with the shift of the sun.
Already.
After Yun Ye put away the jade tokens and handed them to Wu Shi, he asked Liu Fang: "Who is the Ice Beauty? Is there any other fascinating story behind these three jade tokens?"
Liu Fang sighed and said: "Luckily you are also a teacher. Even the famous Binmei people don't know about it, so you should know "Zuo Zhuan", right?" Seeing Yun Ye nodding, he added: "In the second year of Chenggong's reign, there is a book in Zuo Zhuan."
This record is called "Qi Guozuo Fulfills His Mission." You should know this article. I remember Taishan Weng asked you to recite it. "
"I memorized it and then forgot it. You continued, and I was all ears.
"Yun Ye became more and more curious and urged Liu Fang to speak quickly. Wu Shi held the brocade box and looked at Liu Fang nervously.
"To put it simply, Jin State went to attack Qi State, but Qi State could not defeat it, so it planned to sue for peace. One of the demands made by Jin State was that the mother of the monarch of Qi State should be used as a hostage. Qi State did not agree, and the other request was "to do everything possible"
"Eastern Qimu" requires Qi's fields to all face east, so that Jin can easily control Qi next time. Qi could not agree to these two conditions. Thanks to Qi's charming Zuo Bin, he persuaded Jin with reason.
Only then did Qi State escape the disaster.
Because of this incident, Bin Meiren became famous, and soon he was hired as Minister of State by the State of Lu. I don’t know what mistake he made, but he was stripped of his face by the people of the State of Lu, and put his face on the faces of others to lobby other countries.
I hoped to inherit his wisdom, but it turned out to be a joke, so when I saw the words "Human Skin Mask" and "Ji Dong Qi Mu", I knew that this face belonged to Bin Meiren."
Yun Ye and Wu Yan looked at each other, both confused. If they could inherit the family's wisdom by putting other people's faces on their own, nobles would always be rulers. As long as they put the wisdom of common people on their own
If a person's shameless skin is pulled off and placed on the face of a fool, the noble will turn the fool into a wise man. Is such a rule still unstable?
This is similar to the argument that as long as the Hanzhe family has pure blood, they can become smart people - it seems that Bai Yujing is not a good bird, but he has no way to tell Liu Fang, so he can only keep it in his heart, and become a confused person.
As the successor of Bai Yujing, this mute can only bear the loss in secret.
"I didn't expect that your Bai Yujing inheritance would be so strange. I used to wonder how you knew so many things. Now that I know, how many people have you worn the skin of?"
Liu Fang chuckled and kept looking at Yun Ye's face. Wuji threw the box aside and started directly. He rubbed Yun Ye's cheeks vigorously and said to Liu Fang while rubbing them: "I'm not surprised that their master and disciple
Wisdom, what’s strange is the way their master and apprentice travel all over the country. No one knows these two outstanding people. There is no legend about your master and apprentice. It’s not easy. Unless you were wearing human skin masks at the time, it makes sense.
Come on, take one out and show it to me. If no one is around, I’ll grab it now. You’re so curious.”
No matter how hard Yun Ye struggled, he could not escape from Wu Shi's hands. It was not until his face was almost bruised that Wu Shi stopped. He looked at it carefully for a few more times before saying, "It's okay, this face is real."
Yun Ye panted for a while, then stroked his aching face and said, "I have never worn a human skin mask. I have always relied on my face to get by. Bai Yujing's matter is none of my business! He didn't even notice me.
Master wore it."
Liu Fang chuckled and said: "How do you know your master didn't wear it? Your master ordered you to burn his body after his death. Maybe you were destroying the body and eradicating traces. How clever! You really did it without any traces.
Gone without a trace."
"What are you two so happy about? You just found out a jade tablet and a one-horned ghost king and Yinglong. How do you explain it? Mr. Wuji, you two are planning to live forever. Unlock it as soon as possible, and you will become immortal more quickly.
Okay, how come I get to the bottom of my story? My past is my most precious asset and I don’t tell anyone."
While talking, Liu Fang drew two more pictures of Ying Long and Ghost King on the paper, spread them out on the ground for Yun Ye and Wu Ji to pick one, and put the rest on their own. The happy one and the one holding the brocade box
Wu Tongue left the garden and went to his house. Being trusted by someone so much always makes people feel better, especially Wu Tongue.
"You were a vixen in your last life!" When Rimu pestered Yun Ye to complain about Yun Mu's condition, Yun Ye said to her righteously.
"How do you know that I am a vixen who came here specifically to confuse you?" After finishing speaking, he continued to blow into Yun Ye's ears and eyes.
Ling Dang has the thinnest skin. She blushed when she saw Na Rimu, who was almost half-undressed and exposed her tube top, clinging to her husband. She hurriedly cleared Yun Ye's dining table and was about to go out. Before she could go out, she saw Xin Yue's fierce expression.
When I walked in from the outside and saw her face flushed, I knew something had happened, so I stayed and planned to hear what it was.
"Husband, our family's river bend land has lost thirty acres. It was washed away by the flood last summer. After I came back, I asked the farmers to clear out the land again. Something strange happened today. The officials actually did not allow our family to continue to clear the land.
He also said that from now on, no farming will be allowed in Hewanzi or on the riverbanks, and at most only some saplings can be planted.
I have done some calculations and found out that including the riverbank land, our family will lose at least 80 acres of good land. These 80 acres were originally included in the fiefdom. This is obviously an official attempt to bully people. "
Seeing that Xin Yue was fuming, Yun Ye poured a bowl of tea for her and said, "What the officials did is right. None of the rivers around Chang'an has been stable in recent years. The biggest disasters are water mills and river beaches.
The profits are huge, and the land is fertile, but they don’t want to let it go, causing the river to become narrower and narrower. During heavy rains, the floods cannot be discharged and have to overflow the embankments. Many people have died over the years. Didn’t you follow your grandma and learn to recite Buddha’s name? Fafa
Mercy, don’t harm that river again, our family will lose dozens of acres of land and no one will die.”
A "bang" sound startled Yun Ye, who turned around and planned to continue talking to Ri Mu. He turned around and saw Xin Yue's eyebrows raised, banging the table, gritting his teeth and said to Yun Ye: "
This is different. Our land is our land, not even a penny less. How many acres have been taken away from you today, and how many more acres have been taken away from you tomorrow. In a few years, our family’s land will be taken away.
There will be much less land. Will there be any left in Shou'er's hands in the future?
Husband, you are a reasonable person. Those corrupt officials are slowly embezzling the people's land. If you ignore it today, they will dare to say that there is a problem with our slope land tomorrow. We cannot let them get used to these bad habits. "
Xin Yue was angry, so Rimu and Ling Dang became like quails, huddled behind their husband's back and not daring to say a word. They didn't have the majesty of being the mistress of the house.
Yun Ye pressed Xin Yue on the chair and said: "Now I want everyone in Chang'an to say that I am a softie. Look, I am not even willing to go to the court, I just want to retract my head into a turtle shell so that others can't see it.
I, you don’t understand, Madam, actually being bullied is a good thing. If in two years’ time, only this Yunjia Zhuangzi is left in the land of Dangdanghou Mansion, it will be the most beautiful. At that time, our family can be fair.
It has been passed down from generation to generation."
Xin Yue looked at her husband in confusion, not understanding how a weakling could be a prince forever. Out of trust in her husband, she whispered: "Then I just pretend not to know? Is that okay?"
"That's not okay. Our family should shout out loudly when they are wronged. It would be too embarrassing for me to cry out, but it's enough for you to cry out. The uncle's family in County County upstream will definitely encounter the same troubles as ours. Look at it.
How does the county uncle's family do it?" Yun Ye grabbed Xin Yue's hand and gave her advice.
"Mrs. Zhanxian is sitting by the river crying. Do you mean that I should also cry?" Xin Yue seemed to have figured it out.
"Cry, you are Mrs. Gaoming. You are bullied by some petty officials and can only sit by the river and cry. This is the right thing to do. For a while, eat more food and have a good sleep. Let's go tomorrow when we have enough strength.
Crying on the river beach, the more people watching, the better. I guess there will definitely be a lot of women crying with you tomorrow."
Xinyue gritted her teeth and said, "Then just cry. At dusk tomorrow, go to the bells and cry together!"
