Chapter 7 Innocent(1/2)
Chapter 7: Wudi
It was already dark and it was drizzling.
Changsun Wuji sat on the porch, watching the rain falling down the eaves and splashing water. His mood also became chaotic with the splash of water.
Unlike Dou Fengjie, Changsun Wuji's observation and reaction ability are extremely keen.
In the pavilion at night, Li Yanqing's words made him vaguely capture something. If Dou Fengjie was surprised that Li Yanqing was just slandering the sages, Changsun Wuji could hear the deeper meaning hidden in the words...
If it weren't for him, Li Yanqing, would Xingyang be hungry now?
If it weren't for him, Li Yanqing, he would have seen the wounds all over.
What do these words mean?
Thinking of the porridge shed opened by Li Yanqing, he bought it after the famine and opened it in Xingyang's key posts, large and small.
What does he want to do?
Or, why did he do this?
Changsun Wuji's thoughts suddenly became a mess.
Since his sister's condition recovered, Changsun Wuji went out of Sichuan with his mother and walked into Guanzhong, and it was indeed a bit chaotic. In the past, the fertile land of the 800-mile Qinchuan became deserted, and the displaced people could be seen everywhere. Wherever he went and what he heard shocked Changsun Wuji. However, he had not noticed too much, and only thought it was an individual phenomenon. But now, he began to doubt.
The glory since the Kaihuang prosperous era seems to be dim.
This time I returned to Luoyang, I found that my former relatives and friends were dead and declining...
Even my uncle and his family went to Lingnan. In the court, only treacherous villains such as Yu Wen Zhi and Yu Shiji were left.
This also made Changsun Wuji a little discouraged.
Pili Hall is now controlled by Changsun Hengan. Although Changsun Hengan expressed his willingness to accept their mother, son, and sister, it was never a good feeling to live under someone else's roof. Changsun Wuji is a proud person, how could he compromise under the roof of Changsun Hengan's mother and son?
Dou Fengjie said to him: "Go to Gong County. I heard that Yan Qing was doing well there and opened a Qilin Pavilion.
With your talent and knowledge, you will surely be able to occupy a place in the Qilin Pavilion. Instead of staying in Luoyang, it is better to go to Gongxian to make a fortune."
So, Changsun Wuji discussed with his mother and rushed to Gong County.
On the one hand, it is for the sake of my sister, and on the other hand, it is with passion and ideals.
In Changsun Wuji's opinion, his talent may not be inferior to Xue Shou. As for Xu Jingzong, he was just a parasite that relied on Li Yanqing to make a living. But now, he found that he was wrong. It was not that Xu Jingzong was useless, but that he had lost his place to use his skills.
Is the troubled times coming?
Benevolence, righteousness, loyalty and forgiveness are useless?
So what is the use of what I have learned after studying hard for many years? Perhaps for Li Yanqing, he is not as good as a despicable villain.
"Brother, why haven't you been asleep yet?"
A gentle voice sounded behind Changsun Wuji.
Without looking back, Changsun Wuji also knew that it was his sister who came...
"Oh, I'm not used to it when I first arrived in another place, so I can't sleep." He turned his head and saw Changsun Wugui walking slowly in a skirt.
"Little sister, it's raining, why are you wearing so little? You're so sick!"
"Hehe, my body bones are much stronger than the younger brother now. When I was in Mount Emei, Master Sun taught me a set of body strengthening techniques, and Sister Gulando also passed on me a set of dragon subduing skills. I am much better now than before... But you are drinking again, brother."
Changsun Wugui sat down next to Changsun Wuji.
"Brother, have you encountered something upset?"
"Well, it should be."
"Is it because of the little brother?"
Changsun Wuji smiled without answering.
"Actually, I know that the little brother is very worried." Changsun Wugui crossed his legs barefoot, "When he sent me to Shu, it was difficult to do the road to Shu, I felt... But he was very strong and didn't like to tell others anything. He obviously had a lot of thoughts, but he had to make me happy all day long. After so many years, I don't know if he is still the same as before?"
"Does he have something to worry about?"
Changsun Wuji said in surprise: "I really don't feel this."
"The little brother is very worried, but he will hide it, and it hides it very well."
Changsun Wugui showed an innocent smile, "At that time, he thought I didn't understand anything, but in fact I understood, but I just didn't understand what it was."
“Um…”
"Brother, can you help him, okay?"
Changsun Wugui held Changsun Wuji's hand with a look of expectation.
Changsun Wuji smiled bitterly and said, "It's not that I don't want to help him, but... I'm worried that I can't help him. There are many people around him now, such as Xue Shou, Yan Xiangshi, Yao Yi, and Kong Yingda. These people are all heroes in the world. Even Xu Jingzong, whom I look down on, can share his worries. And what about me? I don't even know how to solve his worries and problems."
"It's not that the guy is not as good as them, but that the guy doesn't understand what it means to solve problems."
"oh?"
Changsun Wugui whispered: "Xu Jingzong, is it the one who risked the name of a young brother to accept bribes from the outside?"
"Uh..." Changsun Wuji hesitated and almost said it: It was not Xu Jingzong who accepted bribes under the name, but your little brother, secretly commander.
"How can a person as smart as a little brother not know what he did?
The reason for keeping him by his side is probably of no intention. I don’t know why the little brother kept such a person, but I know that he must have his own reasons. Sometimes, maybe even the little brother doesn’t know what kind of person to help him... He is the only disciple of his father, you must help him. If you don’t know how to help him for the time being, stay by his side and observe in secret.
My mother told me that we will live here in the future.
Since we live here, we shouldn't stand by, are you right?"
Changsun Wuji's thick eyebrows were shaking and he looked at Changsun Wugui in surprise.
My sister's thoughts are far more delicate than me. What she considers is even more profound than me.
Yes, I came with ambitions and had not achieved success. I was about to fall into a slump because of a small setback. How can I become famous in the future?
Thinking of this, Changsun Wuji suddenly became excited.
"Guanyin Bi, don't worry, I figured it out!"
"Well, I knew that the guy would definitely figure it out... It's night, you should take a break sooner."
Changsun Wugui yawned and got up and left.
Changsun Wuji stood on the porch and took a deep breath: Yan Qing, you must treat Guanyin maid well. I will clear all obstacles for you, but you should not let Guanyin maid down on you.
In the dark night, a flash of lightning flashed by.
The lightning enveloped Gongxian County Town in a pale white area.
Rumble, spring thunder sounded, oscillating the sky, clouds rolled...
Early the next morning, Li Yanqing sent Dou Fengjie to the road.
Then he was on the lakeside of the backyard, moving his body, stretching his muscles and bones, and exhaling the old and bringing the new.
During breakfast, he came to Mrs. Gao's residence and visited Mrs. Gao's family. When he saw Wugui, he was shocked.
When he left Shuzhong five years ago, Wugui was still a yellow-haired girl.
But in the past five years, she has been graceful and graceful, exuding a bit of elegance, like a secluded orchid in the valley, which makes people feel endless aftertaste.
At noon, Yan Qing led Mrs. Gao and her party to Zheng Shi'an's tomb to worship.
Although the few thatched cottages next to the tomb were abandoned, Yan Qing would often send people to clean up.
After walking for a while, Mrs. Gao was also tired. After worshiping Zheng Shi'an, she took Changsun Wuji and Yan Qing to rest with Yan Qing.
After carefully asking about Yan Qing’s experience in the past few years, Yan Qing also had a smooth answer.
"Yan Qing, I have a question, don't you know whether to ask?"
"Oh...Madam, please."
"What is your relationship with the Li family, Duke of Tang?"
Mrs. Gao's sudden question shocked Li Yanqing.
"My Duke Tang and me?"
"Yes, seven years ago, it was Duke Tang who entrusted him to accept you as his disciple.
When you competed with Maizizhong, Duke Tang had arguing with the master once. At that time, the master was a little confused. The relationship between you and Duke Tang. Later, you broke off from the Zheng family, but it was changed to the surname Li. The two years ago, the Duke Dou came to propose marriage for you, and I was even more puzzled.
I don’t have much contact with Dou Gui, but I have more or less knowledge about it.
He is serious and has a good attitude towards things, and does not have many friends. I wonder who he is entrusted to you suddenly propose marriage? You... haha, you must still not talk about Dou Gui. Even when you were in Rongle City, you helped him conquer his experienced staff in Mount Feng.
So, after thinking about it, it was only Duke Tang... But you didn't show any connection with Duke Tang, I really don't know..."
This old woman has such a great mind.
Li Yanqing scratched his head, hesitated for a moment, and whispered: "I'm not hiding it from my wife, I have some connection with Duke Tang."
"oh!"
Mrs. Gao pulled a long voice with a look of "It's true".
