Cyber Daming

When we finished studying in the library, the setting sun hung just over the mountainside.

Dundup brought freshly made butter tea, tsampa and dried meat to the father and son for dinner.

"These things are not as sophisticated as the old two capitals and thirteen provinces, but they also have a different flavor. You should try them."

Zhang Siyuan introduced the food in front of his father.

The old man listened carefully to what he said, then slowly picked up the tea bowl in front of him and took a sip.

"Well, it tastes just like the one I drank back then. It's warm, sweet and has a long aftertaste."

He nodded towards Dunzhu and praised: "Your wife's craftsmanship is good."

"Master, you are just joking, so that's okay."

Dunzhu had a silly smile on his face, but his rough eyebrows were full of pride that could not be concealed.

"By the way, have you ever eaten these before?" Zhang Siyuan asked in surprise.

"I came to Fandi when I was still teaching at Xindonglin Academy. I stayed here for nearly three years and visited Fandi in general."

Zhang Fengyue smiled: "You didn't even exist at that time."

"How come I haven't heard you mention these things before?"

"Read thousands of books and travel thousands of miles. The rituals of the Confucian Xu Academy line have high requirements for experience, but now there are too few people who are willing to spend time on academic studies, and they all choose to take a more convenient official career .So it’s meaningless to talk about it now.”

Zhang Siyuan was silent for a moment and said coldly: "That's because they don't know the goods, they are blinded by lard, and they can't tell what is good or bad."

"You like the cool breeze and bright moon, while others like pocketing money. You only regard teaching and educating people as the best in the world, but he just thinks that being an official is the best in the world. The truth behind this is unclear."

"I once boasted that I could inherit the ancient sage's unique teachings and open up another sect of Confucianism. Wind and frost cannot deceive my will, and pride and snow cannot suppress my body. Wealth and honor cannot be met, and royal power cannot be climbed. Everything can be obtained from the book, and I will not bow my head or submit to the subject. ”

Zhang Fengyue said softly: "But in the end, didn't we have to leave the academy and plunge into the ups and downs of officialdom? Even I am like this, let alone them?"

"You have no choice but to stand up and take charge of the overall situation, unlike them."

"In the eyes of others, there is no difference."

Zhang Siyuan raised his eyebrows and glared, "A fool paints the skin, and a wise man looks at the bones. Even if the filth is flowing now, history will rectify your name sooner or later."

"Let's leave the matter of posthumous matters for later."

Zhang Fengyue's eyes were soft and he chuckled: "We, father and son, haven't seen each other for a long time. Let's not talk about these disappointing things today, right?"

"good."

Zhang Siyuan stopped, forced a smile, and changed the subject.

"By the way, father, you are not in charge in the capital, why do you suddenly think of coming to this place alone?"

"Let me ask you first, do you remember what day it is today?"

Zhang Siyuan blurted out: "January 29th"

The old man put down the bowl in his hand: "Today is the New Year, and it is also your birthday, Siyuan. If you stay here and don't go home, I will have no choice but to come find you."

Zhang Siyuan couldn't help being stunned when he heard this, and joy and guilt suddenly appeared in his eyes.

I am happy that my father has not changed, but I am ashamed that I have forgotten a lot without realizing it.

In the eyes of Confucian scholars, it has always been difficult for a family to produce a loving father and filial son. This is necessary for survival and is also forced by the situation.

Even the party leader Zhang Fengyue did the same. He blocked his only son's memory since he was a child and left him to travel outside. He suffered all the hardships of human nature and the harshness of the world.

Zhang Siyuan himself once thought so, so when he just returned to the Zhang family, he was full of resentment and dissatisfaction. He even announced in public that he would not join the New Donglin Party in this life, and did a lot of things that damaged Zhang Fengyue's prestige and reputation within Confucian Xu. Ridiculous things.

But as he spent more and more time in contact with the Confucian clan, and saw more of the ugly faces of those who were arrogant at first and respectful at the back, he gradually understood his father's good intentions.

Confucianism is what people need.

My father taught me the most difficult thing about being a human being first, and then learning Confucianism was a matter of course.

"How old are you, old man? Why do you still have the energy to do this?"

Zhang Siyuan raised his hand and rubbed his face, pretending to complain: "If you want to see me, just ask the people below to send a message, and I will go back myself. The mountains are high and the road is far away, so you don't mind the trouble."

"No trouble, I also want to take advantage of my legs and feet to walk around and take a look at this empire."

Zhang Fengyue said with a smile: "Besides, today is your 30th birthday. There are a few more people here who can liven things up together, which is better than in the capital."

"I didn't expect that today would be a double happiness. I was not prepared at all. I'm really sorry."

Suddenly, a hearty laugh rang out.

Dunzhu, who was waiting outside the door, suddenly stood up, looked at the visitor and shouted in surprise: "Master, you are back too?!"

"Come back and see."

Li Jun patted Dunzhu on the shoulder and said with emotion: "I heard Concubine Yuan Ming say that you are going to be a father? Congratulations."

"It's all thanks to the teacher and husband."

A shy smile appeared on Dunzhu's dark face, and she grinned with white teeth.

"These are all things you fought for with your own life and have nothing to do with us. But even though you have a home now, you can't let go of your fists or feet. This snowfield has improved, but no one can tell when There are tigers, leopards and jackals popping up again. If you really encounter that situation, you have to have the strength to draw your sword, do you understand?"

Dunzhu nodded heavily and responded repeatedly: "Yes, I will always keep your words in mind, Master."

"That's good."

Li Jun walked into the study room and saluted Zhang Fengyue.

"Li Jun of Tianque has met Zhang Shoufu."

Zhang Fengyue was rolling up his sleeves to deal with the tsampa in front of him, and casually waved his hand to Li Jun: "When you go out, there is no need to talk about these fancy names. Since you are on good terms with Siyuan, if you don't feel awkward, then call me "I" Just say uncle."

"Okay, I've met Uncle Zhang." Li Jun was not polite and said with a smile.

Zhang Siyuan originally moved quietly to block Zhang Fengyue, looking nervous, but when he saw that the two of them seemed to have known each other for a long time, and their tone of voice was particularly familiar, he couldn't help but froze on the spot.

"Uncle Zhang and I have met a long time ago."

Li Jun sat cross-legged next to the table, picked up the thermos on the table and poured himself a bowl of hot tea. He looked at Zhang Fengyue and said with a smile, "You didn't tell him about this?"

Zhang Siyuan was completely confused about the situation in front of him: "Old Li, why are you here?"

Li Jun seemed to be hungry too, so he grabbed a ball of tsampa and drank it with butter tea. It tasted delicious.

"I'm here to talk to Uncle Zhang."

"chat?"

Zhang Siyuan looked suspicious and sneakily approached Zhang Fengyue: "Dad, let me tell you, Li Jun is a very evil person. You have to be careful as this uncle."

Zhang Fengyue didn't even raise his eyelids: "You are so powerful and so powerful. How can you be a gentleman to others like this?"

"Don't believe it, I heard that some people in Mo Xu have begun to study this thing, and I suspect it may be related to luck."

Seeing that he was getting more and more outrageous, Li Jun couldn't help but sneered: "I just came from the Eastern Branch, how come I haven't heard of this? That's okay, Xiao Zhang, it's been a long time since I last saw him, I'm so brave, I dare to He made fun of me in person."

Zhang Siyuan suddenly felt a chill covering his body, shuddered violently, and quickly squeezed out a smile: "You are joking, why do you take it seriously? I saw you two looking so harmonious, and I felt so sincere There is no bottom.”

Zhang Siyuan moved his buttocks and sat next to Li Jun: "Old Li, tell me the truth, are you really not here to cause trouble for my old man?"

"Get out of here."

Li Jun said angrily: "How come Uncle Zhang has such a timid son like you?"

"Why are you so timid? What I call filial piety, do you understand? In the entire Confucian order, there are few younger people who are more filial than me."

Li Jun said with a half-smile but not a smile: "I remember, didn't you like to call yourself a 'rebellious son' before? You don't look down on anything Uncle Zhang does."

"Li Jun, if you slander me like this, be careful that none of us brothers have to do it."

Zhang Siyuan secretly breathed a sigh of relief and completely put his hanging heart back into his stomach. Only then did he feel that the back of his heart was completely soaked with cold sweat.

"But then again, why are you just coming to visit me with nothing?"

Li Jun smiled and said: "I owe you what I owe you, and I will make up for it later. How about one of Jiu Jun's heads? If it is not enough, you can add more."

Zhang Siyuan was shocked when he heard this, "Did you bump into someone from the East Palace again?"

Li Jun did not answer him, but looked at Zhang Fengyue: "Uncle Zhang, you asked me that day whether I wanted to be a human or a god."

"Do you understand now?"

"I still say that it doesn't matter whether they are humans or gods. But now some people who I can't stand have begun to call themselves gods, so I have to pull them down from the sky and teach them to be human again."

Li Jun told what happened in Chongqing Mansion, picked up the remaining soup in the bowl and drank it all in one gulp.

"I'm here just to greet you. I'll be in charge of the East Palace."

"Do you want to find out where the East Palace is hiding through 'Si Ming' Zhao Yin?"

Zhang Fengyue hit the nail on the head and revealed Li Jun's plan directly.

"That's right." Li Jun said bluntly.

"It's useless. Those magic sticks act cautiously. They only go through Huangliang and rarely meet in the real world. The most you can do is touch the permanent dream they built in the Huangliang sea. If you go in, you will just fall into a trap. ”

Zhang Fengyue shook his head: "In Huangliang, there is no place for you to practice martial arts alone."

Li Jun didn't show any signs of discouragement on his face and continued: "Then if you add the part of Huangliang authority in your hand, can Zou Sijiu be able to capture their orders in the Huangliang sea?"

"This is the real purpose of why you came to see me, right? If so, this matter can still be interesting."

Zhang Fengyue smiled, but the conversation suddenly changed: "But it's a bit unreasonable for you to come to me to borrow such a valuable thing with such empty talk, right?"

"We are more or less on the same boat now, so there is no need to be so outspoken, right?"

"One code equals one code."

Zhang Fengyue said in a calm tone: "Although Zou Sijiu now has two Dream Lord rules in his hand, and his strength is not weak among the Yin and Yang sequence, if he accidentally bumps into the Xu Er from the East Palace, he will Neither is an opponent.”

"If this part of the authority is lost, let alone how great the loss will be for me. In the future, Huangliang will become a place where Longhu Mountain and the East Palace can do whatever they want. Li Jun, you should understand how dangerous this is for Ruxu."

Li Jun said in a deep voice: "But if there is no countermeasures, the people in the East Palace can fight as much as they want and leave as they want. We have no way to deal with them and can only passively be beaten. This pair of uncle Zhang's men are yours." It is also a big threat to people.”

"Dad, what Jun said makes sense. Although they dare not come to you, people like Liu Jinxun may not be able to prevent them. Although you have sent people from the Law Order to protect them in secret, those people are too rigid in their minds. If they are not careful, they will be drowned in their dreams by the Yin-Yang Order. To deal with these omnipresent Huangliang rats, we still need professionals."

Zhang Siyuan said from the side: "I also know Zou Sijiu. His temperament is a bit unreliable, but his bones are hard. It is unlikely that the East Palace will take this part of the authority from him."

"The thing is in your hands, even you said so, what else can I say?"

Zhang Fengyue waved his hand: "I just explained the pros and cons to you. As for whether to lend it or not, Siyuan, you decide it yourself."

"Thank you, Uncle Zhang."

Li Jun clasped his fists and bowed, while Zhang Siyuan on the side winked and winked. The expression on his face clearly asked Li Jun if he saw what the status of an only son was.

"Don't thank me too early. I have lent you the authority, but I have to trouble you, the Lord of Ge, to do me a favor."

"What is it?"

"Pei Xingjian should have told you about Yang Bai Ze's situation, right?"

Zhang Fengyue said, "This young man has courage and determination, but he is still too young and too optimistic about the situation. Since it has been decided to scrape the bone to cure the poison, the first cut must be clean and neat, without any obstacles."

Li Jun understood: "Do you think someone wants to attack him, so you want me to go to Songjiang Prefecture?"

"Although Yang Bai Ze is now accompanied by a third law order, if there are more jackals, they will have the courage to bite the tiger to death. Siyuan said something right just now, professional matters should be handled by professionals. When it comes to killing people, no one is better than you."

"Aren't you worried that letting an outsider like me interfere in the internal affairs of Ruxu will cause stronger resistance?"

"It seems that you still don't understand scholars."

Zhang Fengyue showed a hint of an inexplicable smile at the corner of his mouth.

"If one head falls to the ground, they will be angry. If ten heads fall to the ground, they will be shocked. If a hundred heads fall to the ground, they will hate it. If a thousand heads fall to the ground, they will cry. But if you kill ten thousand or a hundred thousand people, they will not be angry or shocked, hate it or cry. They will just stand behind you obediently, help you find the way and catch people, and cheer for you."

These calm words that rang in Li Jun's ears, but in front of him, they outlined a raging sea of ​​blood and a mountain of corpses.

"Those who steal a hook should be executed, and those who steal a country will become marquises."

Zhang Fengyue sighed: "This is what the Taoists use to satirize us and the law. Although I still feel uncomfortable listening to it, I have to admit that when dealing with scholars, sometimes reasoning can only treat the symptoms, and irrationality can cure the root cause."

Li Jun's eyes flashed with cold light: "Okay, as long as you can accept it, I will definitely help you to peel these rotten and smelly meat cleanly."

"I asked you to protect Yang Baize, not to kill people indiscriminately."

Zhang Fengyue laughed and scolded: "If you empty my family assets, you will have to deal with Longhu Mountain and Donghuang Palace by yourself."

As soon as the voice fell, a festive drum sound suddenly came from outside the door of the book house.

"Under the eight-spoke wheel, on the petals of the lotus earth, the peaceful Heijiu Village Street, with the great mountain god Ase behind. The house walls were built last year, and the new house was built this year. The golden pillars were erected, and the silver beams were set up. The newlyweds who were in love will move into the new house today."

Li Jun and Zhang Siyuan walked outside the book house, but saw that the villagers of Zhenbao Village had put on clean clothes one after another, and the wooden plates in their hands were filled with some dried fruits and vegetables that they were reluctant to eat, as well as the fragrant meat that had just come out of the pot.

At the front of the team were the man Donzhu and the girl Jiyang who were wearing red and colorful clothes.

The two knelt on the ground, one holding a fine wine in his hand, and the other holding a Hada in his hand.

"The long-lived should have abundant food, the blessed should have brand new clothes, the eager should have smart offspring, and the wealthy should have superior cattle and sheep."

The children sang in unison, and the melodious songs resounded under the starry night.

"I salute the sun, moon and stars, the stars and auspicious days, and barley wine. I beg the respected guests to grant them happiness and health."

Dunzhu knelt forward and took two steps, with hope in his eyes.

"Teacher, sir, please forgive me for my self-assertion. I don't know if I can meet such an opportunity in the future to see you return to the land together, so I hope you can witness me and Ji Yang this time."

Li Jun and Zhang Siyuan looked at each other, turned back at the same time, and set their eyes on Zhang Fengyue.

"Old man, I'm afraid you have to come."

Perhaps because of his excitement, the honest and straightforward Dunzhu seemed particularly smart tonight. He raised his glass over his head and said loudly: "Please ask the teacher to witness our marriage."

"It's easy to eat and easy to take. The host invited me to eat and drink enough, and it's really time to do something."

Zhang Fengyue stood up slowly and walked out the door with his hands behind his back.

"What's the man's name?"

"Dunzhu."

"What's the woman's name?"

"Jiyang."

"Okay."

Zhang Fengyue smiled and nodded: "The two families are married, and the contract is signed in one hall. The good marriage is forever, and the match is the same. Look at the peach blossoms today, which are bright and suitable for the family. I predict that in the future, your descendants will continue to grow, and you will be prosperous and brilliant."

As the old man's loud voice sounded, clusters of bright Gesang flowers bloomed from the ice and snow that had not yet melted, surrounding the newlyweds.

"I hereby write down the promise of growing old together on a red paper, so that the red leaf alliance can be recorded in the love genealogy. This is the proof!"

Zhang Fengyue glanced at Zhang Siyuan from the corner of his eye, and the latter understood and raised his hand to point to the sky.

Amidst the starry sky, a star suddenly shone brightly, and then exploded like a firework.

Circular ripples spread out under the night sky, illuminating the surprised smiling faces on the ground.

Jiyang presented a Hada and wrapped it around the old man's shoulders.

Dunzhu presented a fine wine and served it to the old man's mouth.

"New Year, New Birthday and New Wedding"

Zhang Fengyue laughed heartily: "It's a good omen."

"My home is a thousand miles of fertile fields, and flowers are blooming in the lush forests. The smoke from cooking floats over the tiles on the roof, and the wanderers are returning home. Holding the wine and singing songs, good luck and health fall on the new home, the crops are abundant, the livestock are prosperous, and the joy of the world is no worse than that of heaven."

The people sang and danced, and Dunzhu held his bride tightly.

Zhang Fengyue looked at the two young men beside him, bowed and smiled, "Happy New Year."

"Happy New Year."

Li Jun and Zhang Siyuan said in unison.
