"Is there nothing? This way of scribes sounds a bit strange. Could it be that the Yan'an we saw is not the deity but an incarnation?" Shen Tang suddenly felt his head hurt. There are really all kinds of weird abilities in this world. .
Is there still a way for science here?
I'm afraid the coffin boards have been nailed shut...
Gong Shuwu nodded first, and then shook his head. Shen Tang was confused and didn't understand what this meant.
Fortunately, Gong Shuwu didn't deliberately show off.
"If Yan'an hadn't lied back then, my lord guessed that it would be eight [nine] and ten, but if he lied, it would be hard to say." Gong Shuwu paused and asked, "My lord thinks that Yan'an is a literary scholar. , will you fully explain the truth?"
It’s not that he intentionally played tricks on the map, but that as a group of literary scholars, there are three properties per capita because of the “cunning rabbit has three burrows”.
Especially when it comes to such a private trump card as the way of the scribes, outsiders cannot easily figure it out, and must always keep it secret.
Gong Shuwu preferred to have a banquet with reservations.
Shen Tang: "How is Banbu's friendship with Yan Xingning?"
"I have said a few words, but if I insist on saying it, I should say 'half-baked'." Gong Shuwu made a rare joke, "Yan'an's father is a famous scholar of the Xin State and a court official of the Xin State. Although it is just a sinecure with no real power, but He has a high status and reputation among the scholars, and those who want to become his disciples can get through his family, but Yan'an has become famous at a young age, so it is difficult not to know."
As the younger brother of the head of the Gong family and a highly regarded military attache, Gong Shuwu naturally belongs to the popular diamond king Laowu in the capital. However, he is older than Yan'an, so they are not of the same generation. There is a generation gap in communication.
"Yan'an once said in public that his way of being a scribe is 'empty and non-existent', and the effect is similar to the 'half-hearted' speech and spirit of the literati. However, the latter can only exist for a short time and only has a vague human form, while the former does not It is a real incarnation of cultural energy that can be almost fake, and the avatar can also walk outside. Other than that, there is nothing special about it."
This scribe's way seems very magical, but in fact it is very useless. Even Yan'an himself said that it is of no use other than laziness.
Chu Yao grasped the key points.
"You said it in public?"
What is the way of the scribe?
The trump card of literary scholars.
At the critical moment, Yanan might have a trump card that could turn the tables against the odds, or even save his own life, but Yanan just said it in public so carelessly? He just confessed in public, and he also talked about his abilities in detail. How could this be considered abnormal?
Gong Shuwu carefully recalled the scene at that time.
Explained: "I remember it was at a palace banquet, the old king wanted to show off to envoys from other countries."
To put it simply, the neighboring countries boasted that there was a young man in their country who had a special ability as a scribe when he was less than 18 years old. He offended the host of the Xin Kingdom, and the old king was very angry. In the end, Yan'an stepped forward to bring trouble. Return to a game.
Yan'an is even younger.
Sixteen attained, eighteen mastered, and twenty accomplished.
The way of the scribe is not so easy to control.
Yan'an's words aroused the envoy's doubts.
So Yan'an confessed his scribe's ability in public. Gong Shuwu was also present at the time, and he remembered it particularly deeply - if this ability were used to commit suicide, who could withstand it?
Moreover, his scribe's name is also special.
[There is nothing]
It’s completely based on Gong Shuwu’s aesthetic point of view.
Shen Tang was curious about the gossip: "The literary spirit of 'Half-hearted' can create two literary incarnations, one mind and three uses, but the duration is short, but Yan Xingning's literary incarnation can run around freely... So the most he can do is divide How many incarnations of literary spirit will come out?”
I am truly envious.
Gong Shuwu Dao: "He himself said there are two ways."
But there is something written in his eyes——
No dog would believe the words of the literary scholar.
Shen Tang: "Back then, there were two paths. Now after so many years, I conservatively estimate that there are six paths. Including me, there are seven in total. Good guy, he can be used as seven people."
What a great 996,007 player...
The contemporary king of roll kings!
Gong Shuwu: "..."
Chu Yao: "..."
Is this the only thing the lord cares about?
Even if one person can serve as seven people, he is still serving others, and it is useless to envy him.
The pattern opens——
Gong Shuwu: "It doesn't matter whether there are two incarnations of Wenqi or six. What's important is that when the incarnation of Wenqi dies, I will know about it. Now is not the time to scare the snake. Yan'an should be avoided as much as possible..."
Even though his name is Yan'an and his courtesy name is Xingning, you would think that he is a refined scholar with a "quiet years" type - any famous literary scholar does not rely on his appearance or good temper to get out of the circle. The more famous he is, the more famous he is. The more ruthless.
Shen Tang naturally understands this truth.
When Gong Shuwu said that the messenger Yan Xingning was not the original deity, she gave up the idea of letting him have an "accident".
One of the principles of killing and silencing is to eliminate the root cause and kill an incarnation of literary spirit without endangering the original person.
Why was she going to all that trouble?
Shen Tang is more concerned about Yan'an's purpose of coming.
For whom?
Why come?
Could it be that some of them were exposed? Yan'an guessed that the piece of the Xin Kingdom's national seal in Gong Shuwu's hand was in his hand?
This is about her life and fortune.
"Tell me, did Yanan discover anything?"
"There must be suspicion, otherwise he wouldn't have tried every possible means." Speaking of this, Chu Yao was secretly glad that he had asked Qi Shan to disguise several people beforehand, but he didn't expect it to come in handy, "But he has no evidence, we have to Calm down."
Shen Tang nodded. Since Yan An's way of being a scholar was hard to guard against, she suggested that he should do whatever he wanted these days, rest for a few days, and be fully prepared before entering Heyin to take office.
For relatively large movements, temporarily stop for a day or two.
correct--
"Should we exchange codes?"
Chu Yao was not that nervous, and even joked a little relaxedly: "Yeah, that's okay. The code will be decided by Wu Lang?"
Shen Tang was excited: "Okay."
When Gu Chi received several sheets of "Essential Techniques for Qi Min" written silently by Chu Yao, he found that there was an extra sentence at the beginning -
【How old is Wu Lang?】
【How tall is Goro?】
Gu Chi: "???"
Is the style of "Qi Min Ya Shu" wrong?
Ask again, this is a code.
In the future, the bluebird will use this as a signal when sending messages or meeting each other.
The wrong answer is Yan An pretending to be!
Gu Chi: "..."
What kind of code is this?
There is also a thoughtful "correct answer" at the back.
【Secret】,【Secret】
Gu Chi: […Where’s the answer to the code?]
Chu Yao: [...It’s the ‘secret’. 】
Gu Chi: "..."
He had something to say, but he didn't know whether to say it or not.
I'm afraid that the three heroes of Chu State in those days didn't eat too much pancakes like Shen Tang, and they had a few big pancakes just like her!
Kang Shi only knew that Yan An had come after receiving the message from Jade Bird. He frowned slightly, thankful that he was not there at the time. Otherwise, being bumped into by Yan An might have brought trouble to his lord. After all, Yan An was not a good person.
I'm also glad that Shen Tang can keep calm.
Otherwise, this matter would not be revealed so easily.
Captain Yang took a sip of the warm rice wine. When he saw Kang Shi, his expression was solemn and he asked, "Is this banquet so difficult?"
"Yan Xingning's way of being a scribe is not as simple as what Uncle Gong put it in half a step. The so-called 'incarnation of literary spirit' is just something he deliberately made up to hide his clumsiness. 'There is nothing' is originally a fiction. Since it is fiction, it is naturally not true. existing……"
Captain Yang was a little confused when he heard this.
"What specifically?"
Kang Shi said: "I don't know either."
He didn't have many friends, and because of his scribe's way, he didn't have many friends. He became good friends with Yan'an, and they often moved around when they were young, because Yan'an's scribe's way could restrain him.
But Kang Shi did not have a close relationship with him.
Captain Yang was surprised: "You don't know either?"
So how do you say Gong Shuwu is wrong?
Kang Shi said: "It's just guesswork and intuition."
Captain Yang insisted on getting to the bottom of it.
"tell me the story."
"It's just a guess, just listen to it, don't take it seriously -" Kang Shi poured himself a bowl of wine in a funny manner, took a sip, and tasted it carefully, not forgetting to give Captain Yang an injection in advance, "Fan Banquet" An's father once revealed to a friend after drinking that Yan An's scribe's way can subvert the cause and effect of reality and reality, but it is still unknown to what extent it can be achieved."
Captain Yang still didn't understand.
"False and real cause and effect?"
"Let the false become true or the true become false." Kang Shi said, "I just heard about it. It's hard to say whether it's true or false."
Duwei Yang had an expression of "I believe you have a ghost" - is it so easy to "hear" such a secret? Who spread it? Or Yan'an's father made a gaffe and revealed it after drinking...
After getting along with each other for a while, I can see that Kang Shi is not such a careless person. What he said was half true and half false.
Captain Yang licked it carefully.
Virtual reality...
cause and effect……
From a literal perspective, it is not simple.
Captain Yang couldn't help but roll his eyes and muttered: "Today's young students are really more difficult to deal with."
Thinking back to when he was young, although there were many talented scribes, most of them were mediocre in their ways, unlike now——
It’s really a chaotic dance of demons.
For a moment, Captain Yang didn't know whether to be grateful or regretful. He was born more than ten years earlier and was not of the same generation as them. He was grateful that he didn't have to meet them, but regretfully that he couldn't fight against them.
Kangshi smiled.
I just felt a little worried.
at the same time--
The envoy and his party did not behave as Shen Tang feared.
After they finished their work, they left straight away, but not at a fast pace. They didn't show the eagerness to come here day and night. Yan'an asked, "Is there any movement?"
Another person replied: "No."
The night passed and there was still no movement.
Yan Anxin felt suspicious, but had no choice but to give up - he had seen this Shen Youli in person, and there was indeed nothing unusual about it. At most, he was smaller, more immature, and his eyes were cleaner. It was not as carefully cultivated as those of high-ranking families. What comes out is more like the reeds growing wildly on the river beach, with vigorous vitality and a vitality that can infect people.
He said: "Go back and recover."
Yan'an waved his hand and disappeared into the distance on horseback. The strange thing was that the remaining people didn't seem to see him or follow him.
The group of fourteen people just stopped where they were for a moment and then started on the road again. Occasionally they could hear one or two whispers of conversation.
It seems that they completed the mission too quickly?
At the same moment——
Yan'an, who was far away in the capital, paused slightly.
After a moment of trance, continue writing.
There are piles of things on the desk waiting to be dealt with.
Eighty percent of them are trivial matters, such as a birth in a certain place is auspicious, and a son born with an ability to speak must be a blessing from heaven, which will bless the king of the country for a long time; such as officials from a certain place greetings and crying about poverty; such as flattering a horse.
The rest is to report good news but not bad news.
but--
How could Yanan not know what the situation is like in various places?
He was so angry that he even wanted to scold him with a pen, but he couldn't because Yan'an was not the leader of the country, but Zheng Qiao was. As for how the things that should have been handled by Zheng Qiao ended up on his desk?
You have to ask his good junior brother Zheng Qiao.
Able people should do more work.
Since Senior Brother Yan'an has this intention, Zheng Qiao doesn't have to find something to do for himself and throw away government affairs.
Playing and having fun in the palace every day, either having banquets with the courtiers, or racing horses and hunting Cuju Chuiwan with others...
The day before yesterday, a groom was knighted on the spot because of his good skills in hammering pills. Although it was only the lowest level, it was ridiculous enough. The other courtiers, like sharks that smelled the smell of blood, fell in love with him and sent people everywhere to trap him. Young beauties, presenting actors who are good at singing and dancing in the house - of course, in this name, they will inevitably use this name to get something out of their own pockets.
Yanan often wants to kill people with a sword.
Zheng Qiao came over to take a look and saw that he was filled with murderous intent and said, "Who could make Senior Brother unhappy and have such murderous intent?"
Yanan didn't answer.
Zheng Qiao was quite bored.
But before leaving, he asked: "Senior brother asked Zixu to see Shen Youli, right? How about it?"
Yan'an's eyelids trembled when he heard this.
He said: "There is nothing wrong with this person."
Zheng Qiao sneered: "If there is a problem, I am not afraid of it."
Yan'an looked at his junior brother who had changed greatly and couldn't help but said: "If things continue like this, are you not afraid of dying without a burial place?"
Zheng Qiao sneered and waved his hand nonchalantly.
"It's okay to be alone even if you don't care about yourself."
Yan'an looked angry.
Zheng Qiao turned a blind eye and even smiled with a slightly proud tone: "Even if I die, the courtiers will be buried and died for me, especially the old officials of the Xin Kingdom. Senior brother, there is no need to worry too much, the road to Huangquan is closed." You won’t be lonely.”
Yanan pursed her lips and watched Zheng Qiao strode away.
"etc!"
"Senior brother, what's the matter?"
"About the previous court discussion..."
Zheng Qiao thought for a moment and said, "What are you talking about? If senior brother can persuade them to take out their pockets, I won't stop them."
It was previously discussed to check the accounts of the grain depot and open the warehouse to release grain.
However, there have always been objections.
Zheng Qiao deliberately condoned it for the sake of stability.
The courtiers did not completely deny it, but they just delayed, using various delaying methods. A group of people tacitly agreed to play football and deliberately blocked the banquet. Seeing that the weather was getting colder and colder, and it snowed everywhere. If we don't solve it, I don't know how many people will die this winter. .
Yan'an asked again: "If I want to kill someone..."
Zheng Qiao: "Senior brother is free to do as he pleases, but if they take advantage of him, in order to secure his position, he will have to endure hardships."
He didn't put it too bluntly.
But Yanan could hear the subtext.
If this "bitter" killed Yan'an, he would also die in order to appease the "anger".
After Zheng Qiao left, Yanan was alone for a quarter of an hour before he suppressed the negative anger boiling in his heart. He looked in the direction of the door and murmured into the void: "Wuyou, how long will it take?"
after awhile.
He added: "Two years is enough."
——————
Two days later.
Shen Tang woke up and found that the air temperature had become much colder.
Opening the door, dense fine snow was blowing in the wind.
