C143 At That Time It Was Just That It Was Normal
"I see..."
The eunuch's forehead was covered in cold sweat.
Then he suddenly asked, "Young Master Xiao, did you think of this plan when you heard that they had the magical jade? "
Xiao Yun said, "Yes, what's wrong? It's just a plan to push the boat along with the current, it's nothing."
"This... This is nothing."
"That's right."
" Good! You can do it! You can really do it! "
The eunuch's eyes twitched, and he even looked at Xiao Yun with some anger, causing Xiao Yun to be at a loss for a moment. He did not understand what he had said that had offended the eunuch.
The latter left huffily, and did not even eat a meal.
Xiao Yun twitched his mouth and blinked his eyes. Then, he also said angrily, "Not eating? Save it! Humph, there are more. Feed the dog!"
There was a dog in Xiao mansion, the one that the steward had kept.
Initially, he wanted to kill it and eat its meat, but he was saved by Xiao Yun. After that, he kept it in the courtyard next to him. If he had time, he would even go over and take a look at it.
As for dogs, it should be enough to eat and drink well. That was what Xiao Yun thought.
While he was angry, the eunuch had already rushed back to the Imperial Palace and told what Xiao Yun had said to His Majesty.
The eunuch's memory was really good. As expected, it was very difficult for him to climb to such a high position without any extraordinary talent.
Therefore, he did not drop a single word.
In particular, there were some parts that were not easy to understand that were repeated in the original text. Even the tone and expression were extremely similar!
After His Majesty heard this, his eyes widened, and his eyes were filled with disbelief.
"I once heard that when ordinary generals attack a city, they will attack their troops. When he goes up to cut off diplomatic relations, he will cut down his schemes! He who uses strategies to pacify the world in a chaotic battle. However, Xiao Yun's actions today are even more far-reaching than his strategies. More thorough! Strategy was nothing more than the light and darkness, but his strategy went straight to the source. As the saying went, the root of the fire was to remove the root of the fire, to cut down the fate of the country, to cut down the hearts of the people! What should Zhen do with such a figure? "
The eunuch sighed and smiled bitterly. He said, "When this old servant heard Young Master Xiao's explanation, he felt a chill on his back. It was as if something strange had climbed onto my back and strangled my neck from behind. It made me unable to catch my breath for a moment... Young Master Xiao's profound plan was like him being high and mighty. Standing tall! He stood at the edge of the heavens and the earth, looking down upon the vast territory and the myriad of living beings. Then, with a light tap of his finger, he decided life and death! It's too terrifying! "
His Majesty nodded and said," I don't have the same feeling as you, but I can also feel that this person is terrifying. It was as if I could see how many years it would be in the future, an extremely prosperous city. Becoming a ghost region ghost region ghost city is terrifying. "
After a moment of silence, His Majesty suddenly asked, "So, what do you think I should do with this fellow? I have thought about the magical jade for nearly a month. There are three outcomes. I have never thought of how I should arrange Xiao Yun. Should I let him do as he pleases, or should I entrust him with an important task? Or perhaps... I might as well let him disappear completely, so as to avoid this unconstrained fellow. One day, he will do something that will destroy the world."
It would be difficult for the eunuch to answer such a question.
According to common sense, he could only pretend that he could not hear and lower his head to wait for His Majesty to continue nagging.
But this time, the eunuch raised his head and said softly, "Your Majesty, actually thinking about it now, the name of Young Master Xiao, a Saint Grade, is not a bad thing."
His Majesty was stunned for a moment, then nodded heavily and said, "That's right! Why did I forget about this matter? Saint Grade, hehe, one Saint Grade in a hundred years, a saint appearing in a thousand years, Saint Xiao will probably become a saint in the end."
A Sage, a very mysterious existence, and also an extremely awkward existence.
His status is high, and he is an unreachable existence. He can even be on equal footing with a king and walk through the human world, no matter which country he or she is from, he or she can go straight into it.
However, if he were to talk about power, there was nothing at all.
In terms of power and authority, he was not much different from an ordinary person.
Thus, the things he could do were relatively few.
Furthermore, the Sage was a shackle to begin with. If he wanted to keep his name, he had to cherish his own feathers. When he encountered everything, he had to act according to his own rules and regulations and absolutely could not surpass them.
If he surpassed them, he would lose his reputation.
And reputation was the only thing that the Sage possessed!
His Majesty originally thought the same.
But now, he gradually forgot about Xiao Yun's identity as a Saint Grade.
The most important reason was that Xiao Yun didn't seem to care about his reputation that much!
Putting aside the fact that he cared about his reputation, this fellow was truly an expert when it came to causing trouble!
"Hehe."
His Majesty smiled bitterly and said, "Sigh, do you think that the name of the Saint can really restrain this frivolous genius?"
The eunuch's eyes twitched.
After pondering deeply.
He said softly, "There are a lot of geniuses, but Young Master Xiao only has one."
After saying that, he became silent and did not say anything.
His Majesty sighed and continuously knocked on the table with his fingers.
This also became the only sound in the study.
After a while, His Majesty looked up and said, "Forget it, he is young after all, let him do whatever he wants... Oh right, tell the people below to spread the news that Zhen likes magical jade. "
The eunuch immediately replied.
When he was about to leave, His Majesty suddenly asked, "You normally don't see any court officials that you care about. Why are you helping Xiao Yun now?"
The eunuch was shocked, but he immediately calmed down. He slowly turned around and said softly, "This old servant owes Young Master Xiao a favor."
"He has done you a favor?"
His Majesty did not quite understand.
After all, he knew that the first time the eunuch saw Xiao Yun, it was also the first time His Majesty saw him. Apart from that, the two of them had never met before, so how could there be any kindness to speak of?
The eunuch said calmly, "Yes, Your Majesty. Young Master Xiao has done this old servant a great favor by giving me a meat patty."
The emperor was stunned for a moment, then he suddenly understood. He sighed and said, "You are not the only one who owes me this favor."
After that, he waved his hand and let the eunuch leave.
Wait. He was the only one left in the room. His Majesty shook his head and muttered, "Now, how good would it be if we could avoid getting into trouble? I have been hiding him for a few years. On the one hand, I can temper his temper. On the other hand, I can leave him for later generations. Why not? Unfortunately, this brat seemed to want to stand out immediately, as if he did not want to wait that long. Was this for another reason? A young man who had been lying in wait for twenty years, his forbearance was unparalleled in the world. But why did he suddenly appear at this moment and use such a great method to throw the world into chaos the moment he appeared? It was as if he was afraid that others would not know of his existence... "
As he muttered, His Majesty took out a painting from under the table and opened it. Inside was a letter.
The letter was naturally made by a famous person. The content on it was the poem that Xiao Yun once recited in Drunken Immortal Restaurant with the intention of drinking.
Especially on the last sentence, he had read it for a long time.
Then, he raised his head and looked at the empty room. It was filled with the warmth of the fire, but he felt cold everywhere.1
Finally, he smiled bitterly and said, "Of course."
No one heard him.
Even if someone heard him, they probably wouldn't understand what His Majesty was saying.
...
Time flew by, the internal and external problems gradually disappeared.
The world that everyone was originally in danger suddenly became calm and normal.
The people in the capital did not think about how to gather some food, nor did they think about the poor relatives who lived in the deep mountains and forests.
They were just like a few months ago. They worked and rested every day. They were hardworking and philistine.
They did not even realize this change.
In fact, it was only natural. No one issued an order to "everyone, recover your lives," nor did anyone raise a notice to shout "now is safe" or something like that.
The chaos came from the sudden tension.
Peace came from a long period of peace.
The ordinary people who recovered from the danger felt that this was a part of their lives, and they did not realize that there were actually people who carried them forward.
Some used carriages to open up countless disaster relief routes. Some used schemes and plots to exchange for food to fill the stomachs of the disaster victims. Some people came up with all these plans to cause a disaster that was bound to happen. Resolve it to the least harmful position.
If someone were to record this history in detail a hundred years later, they would probably sigh with emotion and say, "Back then, it was only normal."
This was the life of ordinary people.
No one had the self-awareness of a 'witness of the era' or lived with this self-awareness. They could only turn their heads and recall their lives. Only then would they faintly realize what kind of special era they had lived in and what kind of changes they had experienced.
