Chapter 1135 Chapter 1135: Shen Zhongli (Part 1) [Asking for monthly votes]
The atmosphere at the scene fell into an eerie silence for a time.
Until Shen Tang's cynical laugh sounded: "Xiaofang, it's boring for you to be like this. It almost scares people. We are old acquaintances who know each other well. What abilities do you still know about me? I'm not here at all. I've been through the trap, why would I make the same mistake again? I still prefer that your mouth is only used for drinking, talking about old times, and not talking about anything else!"
Shen Tang refused Zhai Le's provocation and fought back.
“Okay, blame me for being nosy, I’m not a human being inside and out.”
Zhai Le said this with a bit of resentment and grievance.
His temperament has no shortage of friends. Wherever he goes, he has a lot of old friends, who either have a close friendship or meet by chance. The excitement around him has never stopped since he was a boy. With so many friends, Shen Tang is considered the most special among the "old friends".
Because of her temperament, because of her strength, because of her gender, and because the years when she first met her were the last touch of freedom in the life together with her brother. Just like a bonfire, after the light is at its strongest, the color will gradually dim until it becomes an ember.
He and his brother both thought that the trip was over and that the brothers would start a new life. No one expected that the brother's life would go downhill from then on until he died young. Zhai Le was ordered to take over the responsibility of Qu State when he was in danger. He was forced to change from a minister who followed his elder brother to a monarch who led his subjects to survive in troubled times.
Zhai Le will not shirk his responsibilities, but he occasionally dreams back at midnight and misses the time when he was a boy with his brother. As a witness of that period, Shen Tang has millions of words to say when they meet again. There were many things to say, and Zhai Le wanted to talk to her about them all.
Talking about the difficulty of running the country, talking about the confusion of losing the protection of her brother, saying that she is about to realize their heroic words when they were young, and asking her how she is doing now and whether she is facing similar troubles as herself. Zhai Le had so much to say, but in the end he kept it in his heart, rotting and fermenting little by little, and could no longer say it out.
Pour yourself wine one bowl at a time.
Even though it still has the same mellow aroma when it enters my throat, I am no longer astonished and fascinated by it. I even have some doubts - wine is indeed one of the few fine wines in the world, but it is far from unique. Why have I been obsessed with it for so many years?
Shen Tang recognized the change of emotion in his words and softened his attitude: "I can't say that, but thank you for the reminder."
The situation at Quqing Academy really requires careful vigilance.
No matter what Zhai Le's motives were, whether there was some truth or falsehood in his words, it was enough that he was willing to confide in him. When Zhai Le heard this, he smiled happily again.
"What you just said are all true?" Gu De's eyes were firmly fixed on Zhai Le, and he did not miss any emotional changes on the latter's face. It seemed that no lies could be hidden under the gaze of these eyes, "The countries in the southeast are really Can’t tolerate Qu Qing?”
Zhai Lexiao asked: "Is it necessary to lie to you? Who are you?"
He is the leader of a country, why should he deliberately deceive a white man?
Since he was talking about this, he didn't mind saying a few more words: "You haven't thought about the problem with the number of places in Quqing ranging from a few to fifty? In your opinion, the talents of the students in Quqing Academy are amazing. , The talent is outstanding, and you can easily get a spot even if you go back to your respective country. But even if the results are the same, as long as the process is wrong, it is still a mistake.”
"Not to mention that these quotas were originally given to him by the royal families and powerful officials of various countries, but he was cut off by Quqing Academy and suffered a dumb loss. If he suffered a loss once or twice, it was still within the tolerable range, but once more, he would be Can Qing Academy not be an eyesore?”
Gu De said bitterly: "But you also said that it was the fault of all the countries. They first used a good Qu Qing as a toy to flatter themselves, trampling on the original intentions of many sages. Qu Qing fought back, but in the end they were fine. The academy was completely burned down by a fire, and now it has become a hateful 'academic power' in your mouth!"
His eyes were bloodshot and filled with tears.
Strands of blood spilled from the corners of his mouth.
"There is nothing wrong with the academy itself. The layman Quqing founded the academy and supported poor families in order to give more students a chance to succeed. But Gu Yourong, are you confusing 'Quqing Academy' with 'students of Quqing Academy'? The two cannot be equated! The academy is just a dead thing. If you hang the "Quqing Academy" sign anywhere, that place can be called "Quqing Academy"! No matter how it changes, it is just an academy, but what about the students studying there? More than ten thousand plans?”
The academy will not change, only the students will change.
Zhai Le asked: "In the beginning, it was certainly the royal dignitaries of various countries who used the academy to assign quotas to their own people through the academy, which ruined the original intention of the academy, but have you ever thought that among these people there were also students from the academy? From the beginning There are never just a few people who are passively victimized at first, and then become complicit in trampling on the original intentions of the sages, right?”
While Quqing Academy fought back, it also enjoyed benefits—at its peak, the academy had a total of fifty places!
Will Qu Qing spit out the benefits he got?
Each quota is saved by other countries from their national fortunes. A part of Qu Qing was given to Qu Qing in vain, and the rest was left to the students of the country to compete for it. Naturally, all countries would be dissatisfied. Even if they started it themselves, they won't always remember it.
Xia Houyu asked: "What about the dean's self-immolation?"
Zhai Le said: "I threatened him, but he believed it. If you blame this blood feud on me, I have nothing to say. But then again, so what if Quqing Academy is not burned down? If your reputation is ruined, it is better to die. Come clean!"
Except for the layman Quqing, the last one of the following deans can be seen. When Zhai Le talked with him, it was obvious that he did not approve of the state of Quqing Academy, but he was unable to save the terminally ill Qu Qing - too many students came here for the quota and Quqing's brand. Once he gave up, he promised Zhai Due to Yue's conditions, Quqing Academy was attached to Qu Wangwang's court. I don't know how many people would scold Quqing Academy for being servile and lacking in the character of the past. Just assuming it, he couldn't bear those insults.
He had no face to face the sages of the academy.
But he could not accept it when Zhai Le revealed these scandalous things about Quqing Academy, so he disbanded the academy and let everything return to dust and dust. At least when future generations mentioned Quqing Academy, they still yearned for it. Regret, not contempt.
Gu De could no longer suppress the sweet taste in his throat.
A mouthful of dirty blood spurted out.
If Xiahou Yu's eyes and hands hadn't been quick to support him, he would have been unable to stand at this moment. Seeing this, Zhai Le stopped irritating him: "In fact, it doesn't matter if it's burned. In the future, upright students will rebuild the academy, and the filth and intrigues can be corrected."
Shen Tang said: "Zhai Xiaofang, please say less."
Zhai Le was unhappy: "Youli is so partial."
Which of his words is not the truth?
The last dean was a somewhat pedantic person, so it is no wonder that he raised a man like Gu De - Quqing Academy was burned down, and his Taoist heart collapsed. Zhai Le said: "If you want to rebuild the academy, I have no objection. The only thing is that it cannot be in the southeast!"
Quqing Academy’s network of contacts is still too large.
Once rebuilt, it will be equivalent to reuniting these scattered people. Zhai Le doesn't want to deal with a lot of government affairs every day and have to take care of these messy things. He is worried every day and can't live his life?
How to say it, we have to wait for time to dilute everything.
Perhaps this group of people should be almost dead.
Xia Houyu looked at Gu De's state, and he, who had always been good-tempered, was a little angry: "Why do you need to speak nicely, Lord Zhai? After all, aren't you one of them? What's the difference between stealing authority and taking advantage of power? ? Ordering envoys to instigate students and use force to suppress others is just an excuse for being a teacher! Do you dare to say that you are upright and have a clear conscience? "
Who doesn’t stand on his or her own side and use all means?
How can he ridicule people like this because he is the head of the country?
The smile on Zhai Le's face disappeared little by little.
It was replaced by a cold and murderous intention.
At this time, someone tapped his shoulder. Zhai Le turned his head and looked at the force. A bowl of wine was brought directly to his lips. The wine in the bowl was still swaying with the force. Shen Tang said: "Drink."
No other unnecessary actions or words.
Zhai Le saw the irresistible protection in Shen Tang's eyes, grabbed the wine bowl, drank it all in one gulp, and flicked it away: "It's getting late, if you don't go back home, there will be trouble. See you next time."
Just as he was walking far away, a gust of wind came from behind his head, and he raised his hand to catch it.
It turned out to be a round wine jar.
Hands can also hear the sloshing sound of liquid inside the wine jar.
Shen Tang said: "Well, see you next time."
Zhai Le looked at Shen Tang with complicated eyes for a long time, and finally laughed inexplicably: "Will you always look like this in the future?"
Shen Tang waved his hands to drive people away in a bad mood.
“Go away, don’t curse me.”
Zhai Le looked down at the wine jar, his smile was as bright as before, and he was a little proud: "I have almost completed my ambition back then."
The Southeast Continent is destined to be his.
“Tsk, then you have to hurry up and don’t let me catch up.”
Zhai Le accepted the jug of wine and walked toward the city. Not far away, there were more than a hundred personal guards waiting. After hearing the news, their daughter Erya and her Tai Fu Yu Hai also came. Yu Hai folded his hands in his sleeves and remained calm, while Erya jumped up and down like a prawn in a steamer without stopping. Don’t worry until you see Zhai Le back safely!
“Father!”
Zhai Le said: "It doesn't matter, let's meet a friend."
Judging from the age of the bald ape, he was more like a mistake her father made when he was young than a friend. She hardly saw anyone who could escape unscathed when her father changed his face. Erya didn't hide her worries, and her obvious suspicions aroused speculation.
"You doubt your father?" "My son and I don't dare."
Yu Hai doesn’t have so many worries.
Just raised his eyebrows in the direction of Shen Tang and others: "Hit?"
That is the evil lord, the king of Kang.
Come to your own territory without saying hello, and you can only consider yourself unlucky if you don't adapt to the climate, right? Yu Hai's suggestion was rejected by Zhai Le: "What's the point of beating her? This is not her true form. What's the point of beating her incarnation? Besides, have you noticed that young man who looks exactly like Gong Xiqiu? That time we met at the Holy Land of Mountains and Seas The weirdo here! Just to be cautious, drink some wine.”
A fight will be avoided.
Yu Hai shook his head: "What a pity."
If it is true that I am here, no matter how high the cost, I have to keep the other party completely. Let’s see how heartbroken Qi Yuanliang will be!
Zhai Le called to his daughter and important officials: "Let's go."
They dispersed, and Shen Tang and others also had to withdraw.
The high priest who looked exactly like Gong Xiqiu looked at Gu De and said, "It's a heart disease, and heart disease requires heart medicine. If you are still unwilling to look away, depression will condense in the heart, which may damage the fundamental vitality!"
Gu De is not interested in his own physical condition.
He just wanted to ask clearly: "Are Shen Jun and Zhai Xiaofang familiar with each other?"
Shen Tang said: "We are old acquaintances."
“You are not Shen Dali.”
Shen Tang: “…”
Shen Dali, a name that is fake at first glance, does he really believe it?
Gu De affirmed: "You are Shen Youli."
Shen Tang was proud: "Tsk, do you know me?"
Gu De: “I have never heard of it.”
Shen Tang: “…”
Seeing that Shen Tang's expression had changed, Xiahou Yu explained to Gu De: "I have indeed never heard of it. The two places are too far apart."
There are so many countries in the world, and every now and then, countries are destroyed and new ones are established. The news scattered in the market can only mention the country's name and surname. As for the name of the country's leader, even if it is mentioned, it will be distorted due to the language transmission process in various places.
Shen Tang punched the ground angrily.
“No, why?”
It’s so unfair!
With the help of his brother Zhai Huan, this boy Zhai Le successfully passed the most painful stage of starting from scratch in the founding of the country. After that, he fought and fought and fought to become famous. Looking back at yourself? One enemy after another lined up to beat her, and her own people also tricked her!
Shen Tang hugged his head and cried.
As a result, there were only a few hairs on the scalp under the palm of my hand.
This critical hit almost shattered her into pieces.
Hurrying to stop the strength in his hands, for fear of tearing out his only hair: "Whether it's Shen Dali or Shen Youli, you will definitely not lose. Work hard and your life will get better!"
Gu De smiled bitterly: "I have heard that the folk customs in the north are tough..."
Her demeanor just now was indeed that of a ruthless gangster.
Shen Tang: “…”
Xiahou Yu was really afraid that Shen Tang would tear his best friend alive, so he hurriedly changed the subject and asked Shen Tang warmly what his plans were next—return to the North, or go somewhere else? Southeast can't survive, and Zhai Xiaofang will definitely send someone to closely monitor their whereabouts.
Shen Tang said: "Let's go to the central part of the mainland."
See if there are any opportunities for her to take advantage of.
Xia Houyu nodded: "Okay."
Gu De also acquiesced to this arrangement.
The only difference is where to go. Their knowledge of the countries in the central part of the continent is limited, and that information is now out of date.
“It’s better to go to Qiguo.”
The high priest, who had been quiet all this time, suggested gently.
“Qi Guo? What’s so special about it?”
Xia Houyu and Xia Houyu disagreed: "Qi Guo's national power is at its peak, and there are people to rely on... The country can be quickly revitalized after being destroyed several times."
It would be difficult for a few of them to run over and try to stir up a storm.
"You said Qi Guo relies on you? Oh, they died relying on you."
"died?"
Jimo Qiu’s eyes were wandering.
“Well, he died because of my enlightenment.”
Shen Tang: "...Huh? Then he is quite nice."
Xia Houyu: “…”
Gu De: “…”
Shen Tang ultimately failed to go there in person.
On the third day, there was a sudden tremor that made her feel sick and made her want to vomit.
There seemed to be some force pulling on her soul, and the feeling of light or heavy floating made her feel like she was floating on the sea every step of the way. Jimo Qiu said: "Your Highness, it's time for you to go back!"
Zixu has been able to successfully control this body after training.
Jimo Qiu released the summons.
Opening his eyes again, what he saw was a face magnified by kind thoughts.
“Where is Your Highness?”
Shannian Bajibaji gnawed on a pear and said, "It must have been cut off."
There will always be a price to pay for recruiting people blindly.
Everyone anxiously waiting for the three-day period: “…”
When you are healthy, you feel like a light on your back.
The looks from his colleagues have stupefied him countless times.
Shan Nian said leisurely: "Yu Yu Lei Yao."
