Chapter 294: Thousands of Miles of Snow

Although the old nun was also a strong person, she had no power to resist when faced with the strong person in the Wangyou realm in front of her. But after a moment, her heart was ashen, her face was pale, and she was unable to resist at all.

Thoughts come.

The man in blue robe glanced at the old nun, the murderous intent in his eyes was as real as if the killing intent would overflow from his eyes in the next moment and take her life away.

"All I want is an answer. If you are really unwilling to give it to me, then I will really send you to death."

The man in blue robe spoke extremely seriously, and when he looked at the old nun, he looked extremely serious.

The old nun was silent for a long time, unwilling to speak.

The man in blue robe said: "I really can't think of any reason for you to reject me. Your sister doesn't treat you as a sister, and your brother-in-law won't let you see your sister for the last time. If I were you, I would definitely

They will have to pay a huge price!"

The old nun was still silent, but there was some struggle between her brows.

The man in blue robe said indifferently: "Do you know how you will be recorded in the history books?"

The old nun said calmly: "I am a female generation, why should I care what Qingshi says?"

The man in blue robe looked at her and said, "Then in the history books, will your name be in hers?"

When the old nun, who had gradually become determined, heard this, her face suddenly turned ugly. She looked up at the man in blue robes, with many emotions flashing in her eyes, but finally turned into confusion.

In the General's Palace back then, she and the young empress were already very good sisters. The relationship between the two was so deep that outsiders could not imagine it. If not, how could they have been together before the current Emperor Liang raised his army?

When the time came, he chose to run for him in the city of God.

In fact, it can be said that the reason why the old nun was willing to do so many things was never because of the high official position and wealth, but just because of the friendship with the queen.

Then the two broke up for many reasons, but in fact it was the old nun who felt that she should be the queen's best sister and only sister!

"She was the one who apologized to me first..."

The old nun murmured, tears flowing from the corners of her eyes.





A scholar stood by the South Lake for a long time, then quietly left the academy and walked slowly towards somewhere in the divine capital. He walked through several long streets and passed an alley. In the alley, although the snow was not shallow,

But there are still a group of children playing in the alley, maybe it is the new year, so all these children are wearing new clothes. The clothes may not be made of exquisite materials, but they are always colorful and brand new.

The children here lowered their heads to grab the snow, and used their little hands that were red from the cold to squeeze the snow into snow balls one after another, and then held them in the palm of their hands. After each looked at each other, the other one nodded, and then silently said in their hearts.

The sound started, and several children began to throw snowballs in their hands to each other, and a cheerful snowball fight began. However, when the scholar walked by, a younger child just threw a snowball, and it fell on

On the scholar's chest, in fact, the child is not very strong, and the scholar's cotton robe is quite thick. This small snowball fell on the chest, and it was not painful or itchy. However, children are children after all. When they saw someone hitting an adult,

He immediately dropped the snowballs and dispersed in all directions, and soon only the backs of these children could be seen in the alley.

Only the child who threw the snowballs before was left, standing there somewhat helplessly.

He glanced at the back of his friend who was walking away, and actually thought about running away, but in the end he couldn't take a step forward. After taking a peek at the scholar, he found that the scholar was not angry, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

The scholar stood there, stretched out his hand to wipe the snow flakes on his chest, and said nothing.

The child mustered up his courage, took two steps, came to the scholar, and said sincerely, "Sir, I'm sorry."

The scholar looked at him with a smile on his face and asked with a smile: "Why do you call me sir?"

The children who were a little nervous at first were completely relieved when they saw the scholar like this. He scratched his head and said with some embarrassment: "I don't know, looking at Mr. like this, he is very similar to the master in the private school."

picture."

The scholar glanced at the child in front of him, stretched out his hand to brush the snowflakes off his head, and then continued to ask: "I think you wanted to run before? Why didn't you run away again?"

The child hesitated for a moment and then said: "I was a little scared at first, but I thought that if I ran away, I would be sorry for the principles taught by the master in the private school, and I was afraid of disappointing the master."

The scholar nodded and agreed: "It is reasonable to be afraid of disappointing the teacher."

The child listened to the scholar's words and looked at the scholar's expression. For some reason, he felt like a spring breeze. He asked with some expectation: "Sir, is he also a master in a private school?"

However, as soon as he said these words, the child felt a little nervous in his heart. He probably felt that the scholar in front of him looked young, and he didn't look very old at all. If he said he was a master, he probably didn't look like him.

As expected, the scholar quickly shook his head and said softly: "I'm not really a master. I haven't had any students yet, and I'm still studying."

The child was suddenly startled and said in surprise: "Sir, are you still studying?"

The scholar hummed and said softly: "I have been studying for many years, and I don't know how many more years I have to study."

The child couldn't understand the deeper meaning of this sentence, so he just echoed: "Yes, the master in the private school also said that in fact, even if you are older, you cannot stop studying.

, you can even study until your death. Studying for fame or money is actually not advisable."

"Then your wife must be a good scholar."

The scholar was originally anxious to leave the alley and rush to a place ahead, but for some reason, after the child said so many words, he was no longer anxious. Instead, he had the patience to talk to the child a lot more.

"Of course Master is very good, but it would be better if he could be less fickle and more reasonable."

The child had a headache when he thought of the teacher's ruler in the private school. He was often beaten. Sometimes he forgot the homework assigned by the teacher because of his fun. When he went to the school the next day, he would definitely be beaten.

It's just that after other children are beaten, they may feel that they are right and that the master is too cruel. But every time the child in front of me is beaten, he understands that it is actually his fault. However, because of the nature of children, they can't help but play.

So basically, no matter how sincere you are when admitting a mistake, you will have to make it again next time.

The scholar smiled and said: "I was never beaten when I was a child."

The child was stunned and said, "That gentleman must be a very good scholar."

In his opinion, all the masters in the world are good at beating the stick. If you can avoid being beaten when you are a child, this means that the gentleman in front of him has a good temper. At least when he was young, he must have studied.

Very hardworking.

The scholar thought for a while and remembered his childhood experiences. He remained silent. He was born in the Wei family and was the legitimate son. From the time he was born, his fate was actually destined. When he was young, he could not go to the academy. In Wei

The gentlemen of Mr.'s family were naturally very strict about studying. He also understood what he was shouldering, so his parents really didn't worry about studying. But in fact, just like the children in front of him, children are naturally playful.

, At that time, he also longed for the life outside the Wei family, but it was just a high-class family that blocked his line of sight, so he couldn't see it.

As for entering the academy later, the gentleman who is regarded as a god by scholars all over the world is different from Wei's family education. There is no rigor in it. Whether it is studying or doing something else, this scholar

, he was probably very casual, and he didn't treat his students seriously, and his lectures and teachings were not considered serious, so that Wei Xu was not used to it at first.

He couldn't even understand how such a casual and idle scholar could win the favor of the previous dean, allowing him to become the dean of the academy and the leader of scholars in the world.

However, as he spent more and more time with his husband, Wei Xu roughly understood the truth. It turns out that scholars in the world do not necessarily have to be rigid and polite, nor do they have to talk all day long.

Otherwise, he is still a good reader.

Wei Xu raised his head, and his thoughts gathered together again. The child in front of him had been waiting for him for a long time. Wei Xu smiled apologetically and said softly: "It's not that good, he's just a passable scholar. But I don't know whether my husband is satisfied or whether his parents are satisfied.

"

The child said oh but did not speak immediately, not knowing what he was thinking.

I don't know how long it took, but the child suddenly felt embarrassed and said: "Actually, sir, I said before that I was afraid of disappointing you, but actually I have another idea."

Wei Xu had no reason to think that the child in front of him was going to say something great, so he said seriously: "Please say it."

"Actually, when we study, it doesn't matter whether our husband is disappointed or our parents are dissatisfied. The most important thing is that when we study, we have to understand what kind of person we should be and what kind of person we want to be.

Just like what the Master said, the meaning will become apparent after reading the book a hundred times."

The children pinched the corners of their clothes, and some did not dare to raise their heads to look at the scholar in front of them.

Wei Xu looked at him with a complicated expression.

Before Wei Xu could say anything, the child suddenly remembered something and his face suddenly became a little panicked. He quickly saluted Wei Xu and said, "Sir, I still have something to do at home, so I have to take a step forward..."

After saluting and not waiting for Wei Xu to reply, the child ran away in a panic, leaving only his back behind.

Looking at the child's back, Wei Xu murmured: "He can be my teacher."





After Wei Xu came to his senses, the child had already disappeared. Before he could turn his head, a voice sounded beside him. The person who came was a middle-aged man with an ordinary face, wearing a gray cotton robe in the winter.

, it looks a bit shabby, it must have been worn for several years.

"Mr. Wei is really in good spirits. He was able to chat with a young boy for so long. It's probably because of the influence of the dean."

In fact, the academic atmosphere of the academy in recent years is really different compared to before. The original academy was a holy place for scholars in the world. The masters here were naturally well-educated, but they were just rigid and observant, like an old tree. But today

After the dean took over the academy, it was as if the old tree was sprouting new shoots and had many new ideas.

There is still no loss of knowledge in the academy, but it seems that there is no trace of obsolescence in every gesture.

Wei Xu turned to look at the middle-aged man. He didn't speak in a hurry. He just thought for a moment and then slowly said, "You are too anxious."

The middle-aged man was noncommittal and said, "Some people have been waiting for years and think it's okay to just wait in the last few days. But some people think I've been waiting for years, so why do I have to wait anymore?"

Wei Xu naturally understood what he meant and said calmly: "You can't eat hot tofu in a hurry. What's more, you want to eat the whole world. When you are anxious, you just ignore it. This is not good."

The middle-aged man smiled and said: "Mr. Wei, why should you worry? Now that things have begun, where can we turn back? Besides, I believe that things will develop according to our ideas."

Wei Xu shook his head and said calmly: "I want to see it again."

Hearing this, the middle-aged man frowned involuntarily, feeling a little displeased.

"You can't wait, but in fact you still have to wait, so if I look at it again, it won't be a delay for you. What's more, not choosing is actually the best situation now. If we really want to involve the academy and the teacher, how can he

If we do it, can you hold it back?"

Wei Xu looked at the middle-aged man, the meaning in his eyes was very clear.

"A great talent like the dean would not easily step into the trap."

The middle-aged man frowned and sighed softly: "But if possible, we really don't want to antagonize someone like the dean."

Wei Xu remained silent, actually still waiting for the middle-aged man in front of him to make his own judgment.

Seeing that Wei Xu was silent, the middle-aged man frowned and said, "Mr. Wei can't influence the academy. Doesn't it mean that the Wei family can't influence it either?"

Wei Xu looked at him and asked, "Do you think the Wei family is not as complicated as the academy?"

A dynasty, in fact, is often passed down the shortest time to the so-called royal family. Apart from the royal family, whether it is those high-ranking families that have been passed down for hundreds or thousands of years, or this academy that has been passed down for thousands of years, it is actually complicated.

The level is far beyond that of the royal family.

The middle-aged man was a little angry, "You high-ranking people, you are planning and planning, but in the end you just lack some determination, otherwise you will not be able to sit in this world?!"

Wei Xu said nothing, but the emotion in his eyes was obvious.

For those high-ranking families, what does it mean to be an emperor?

It's really meaningless.

Is there any dynasty in this world that can last for hundreds of generations without changing?

But it is not too difficult for a wealthy family in this world, a family of thousands of generations.





At night, when the night fell, the city of Gods experienced another heavy snowfall. The snow had not gone away before. In fact, the snow had not stopped. Now the snow was getting heavier, and the city of Gods was covered with white snow.

On Xie's side, lanterns were hung under the eaves in front of the gate. The weak lights inside were reflected on the white snow. There was more light than usual, but it was still difficult to illuminate the whole world.

Tonight is the Xie family's monthly gathering, not to mention that it is approaching the New Year, so naturally there will be more people. All the Xie family members stopped what they were doing early and rushed to the Xie family, just for this small gathering.

As usual, the ancestors still did not show up at this small gathering, so the person who attracted the most attention in this small gathering was the eldest brother who usually attracted the most attention. However, in recent years, the second house has gradually become more and more popular, which also makes people feel uncomfortable.

disregard.

The people who could sit on a large round table were all important people of the Xie family, but as they changed cups, their personal emotions were different. During the dinner, a steward came to the side of a young girl and whispered

After saying something, the girl stood up on her own and walked towards the depths of the Xie family in the distance. The big shots who seemed to have ignored the girl at first actually turned their heads and looked over there, with emotions in their eyes.

different.

Regarding the girl from the Bailu Xie family, many people were not optimistic at all at first, but later they had to express their love, and now they are afraid, which is all reasonable. Watching the girl leave, I don’t know how many people

They are all thinking about the same thing at the moment.

Xie Nandu walked alone toward the depths of the Xie family. This was not the first time he had walked this road, but even now, he still didn't like it.

The steward didn't know when he left, and she didn't know when she arrived in front of the Xie family's ancestral temple.

The ancestor of the Xie family sat on that chair today, but the old man who was originally sitting on the chair was not seen.

The ancestor of the Xie family looked at this girl who was as quiet as a pear blossom, with some admiration in his eyes, and said straight to the point: "Your senior brother Wei has been a little restless recently."

The city of God is too big and has too many secrets, but for a being like Xie, most of the secrets are actually not secrets.

Now they don't know who and what Wei Xu is planning, but at least they know that Wei Xu is not staying quietly in the academy.

Before Xie Nandu could speak, the ancestor of the Xie family shook his head and said: "This kind of thing, even if I tell you, it doesn't require you to do anything. Now that the gods are about to come, there are only a few people who can influence this important event.

People and an academy, you are in the Xie family and in the academy, although it is not your turn to make a decision at the moment, it is good to take a closer look."

Xie Nandu has been focusing on practicing these days and is actually not too concerned about the situation in the city of God. However, since he is in the whirlpool, how can he stay out of it.

Xie Nandu was silent for a moment, and then asked: "What would our ancestors choose?"

The ancestor of the Xie family did not show off and said bluntly: "I don't choose anything."

Xie Nandu looked at the ancestor of the Xie family with more doubts in his eyes.

The ancestor of the Xie family thought to himself and said: "The Xie family is different from the Wei family in that they rose up in this dynasty, so the Wei family does not care whether the world is surnamed Chen or not, but the Xie family still cares about it for the time being, but the situation is complicated and confusing now.

Everyone's choice is gambling, and gambling involves risks. No matter how high the odds are, there are actually risks, so Mr. Xie does not go to the gambling table and is only a spectator."

If you want to avoid accidents, lose money, or lose money, it's not about learning some superb gambling skills, it's about not going to the gambling table. As long as you don't go to the gambling table, you won't lose.

The reason is so simple.

Xie Nandu frowned and asked: "This is the foundation of Xie's life? Then why is Wei so anxious?"

The ancestor of the Xie family looked at the girl from White Deer and said with a smile: "Then I don't know."

In fact, he didn't know what it was, he just didn't want to mention it, and he didn't want to mention it. If he talked too much, he would find it troublesome.

Fortunately, Xie Nandu was not the kind of woman who would break the casserole and ask for the truth. Seeing that the ancestor didn't speak, he stopped talking.

One old and one young, separated by endless years, as if one person is standing at the beginning of the long river of time, and the other person has reached the end.

The ancestor of the Xie family was silent for a long time, and suddenly he smiled with great interest and said: "After coming back from Cangzhou, that little guy's future is bright, but do you think he can really allow me, the Xie family, to open his doors one day?"

Xie Nandu remained silent.

The ancestor of the Xie family smiled and said: "When outsiders look at a big family, they always think that things like getting married must be well-matched. But in fact, over the past two hundred years, the Xie family has married off countless Xie family members.

They met ordinary men who were not special at the time, and then they became famous and became a legend."

Xie Nandu said softly: "It's still a deal."

The ancestor of the Xie family smiled and said: "Girl, you are born in the Xie family, can't you accept it? You have been asked to marry the man you like, rather than forcibly appointing a man for you. Speaking of which, if you are willing, in fact

You can choose one of the three princes from the Liang Dynasty. Of course, if you choose, Xie will definitely be on the gambling table today."

In fact, after all is said and done, it is still the so-called interests.

Xie Nandu remained silent and did not say a word.

She hates these things from the bottom of her heart.

The ancestor of the Xie family naturally knew it, and said softly: "I know you don't like it, so you don't have to come back for the New Year's Eve dinner. We'll talk about it later when you want to come back. As for those scattered gatherings, you can also put them down. I'll do it next time I come back."

To commemorate my old man?"

The half-joking words of the ancestor of the Xie family did not make Xie Nandu say anything. She just looked at the ancestor with a dull look.

The ancestor of the Xie family waved his hand and said with emotion: "The aura of a scholar who came out of Bailu is really incomparable to the little guys here in Shendu, but..."

Before the ancestor of the Xie family had finished speaking, Xie Nandu had already turned around and walked away. After all, Xie Nandu was probably the only person in the entire Xie family who could leave alone without caring about the ancestor of the Xie family.

If it were anyone else, they really wouldn't have the guts.

The ancestor of the Xie family smiled slightly and looked at the girl's back without saying anything.





Xie Nandu left the Xie family all the way, and not long after, he had arrived outside the side door of the Xie family. The academy's carriage had been waiting here for a long time.

There was already a thick layer of snow on the roof.

It’s still snowing heavily tonight in the capital city of Shenzhou, which has been closed for the past few years.

Xie Nandu turned his head and glanced at the lanterns hanging under the eaves.

After looking at it for a few times, he looked away and turned back.

A black figure stood out in the heavy snow.

Xie Nandu frowned slightly.

When the black figure got closer, she raised her eyebrows.

She could see clearly that he was a young man in black clothes, with a knife hanging from his waist, and there were some snowflakes on the hair on his head.

It's still dusty.

The young man in black shirt who braved the wind and snow stared at the girl in front of him with a pair of eyes that looked like there were thousands of stars inside. He took out two roasted sweet potatoes from his arms like a magic trick and asked: "It's still warm.

Do you want to eat?”
