Shui Jing was speechless for a moment.

He has spent an incredible amount of time in Yudu in the past few years. Looking back on the past thousand years, he has never appeared in the same place so frequently, and even the Four Seasons Mountain only returns once in a while.

But even so, it might be impossible for him to be in Yu country all the time.

Seeing Shui Jing's silence, Xie Wuyi knew he had hit the nail on the head, chuckled, and continued: "So, Master, don't try to help each other in everything. I still have to learn to deal with the affairs of the court and China by myself." .”

Shui Jing heard that he was very firm, so she didn't force her anymore, she changed the subject and said, "Then you still have to sleep, right? Are you going on like this because you want to suffer from problems at a young age?"

Xie Wuyi looked at the mountain of files on the table, and then at Shui Jing's unquestionable gaze, sighed slightly, and said submissively, "Then I'll lie down for a while."

As he spoke, he moved away the files and pens in front of him, intending to rest at his desk for a while.

"Tsk."

Seeing him being so perfunctory, Shui Jing really wanted to raise his hand to knock him out, so she gave him a blank look, straightened her cross-legged legs under the desk, patted her legs and said, "Lie down, sleep well."

Xie Wuyi was startled, turned his head and looked at Shui Jing for a moment, then looked down at his legs, as if he didn't understand.

I don't know if it's an illusion, but Shui Jing always felt that at that moment, under the reflection of the dim candlelight, Xie Wuyi's neck and ears were slightly red.

"Why are you in a daze?" Shui Jing asked strangely, then patted his legs and urged, "Lie down."

Xie Wuyi's Adam's apple moved, turned his head and blinked very quickly, and seemed to take a breath, then made up his mind to follow Shui Jing's words, turned his back to him, and lay down gently on his back, pillow On the legs of the mirror.

Xie Wuyi's movements were too slow, he supported his upper body with the strength of his waist and abdomen, and the back of his head only rested lightly on the legs of the mirror, as if he didn't dare to use his strength.

Shui Jing hardly felt the weight. It was not so much that Xie Wuyi was "pillowing" on his lap, but rather "building it".

He raised his hand and patted Xie Wuyi's shoulder. He obviously felt that Xie Wuyi's body was a little stiff, and he smiled helplessly, "Why are you so tense? Relax, your small body won't overwhelm your master."

Xie Wuyi took a deep breath, and relaxed a little according to Shui Jing's words. Only then did Shui Jing feel that the weight on his legs had become more normal, and he also let out a sigh of relief.

He casually pulled out the hairpin on Xie Wuyi's head, took off the jade crown and put it aside, untied his coiled hair, and let the thousands of strands of blue hair spread out loosely.

"Okay," Shui Jing stroked his unshaven hair and said, "Go to sleep."

Tilting his head slightly, he happened to meet Xie Wuzhi's gaze.

Because of the cover of the table, Xie Wuyi's face was hidden in the shadows, the candlelight flickered, and the light and shadow flickered, but it made his eyes look clearer.

Shui Jing stared at him quietly for a long time, unconsciously almost fell into it, finally came back to his senses, raised his hand and tapped the tip of his nose and said softly: "Okay, close your eyes."

With a slight smile on the corner of his mouth, Xie Wuyi stared at him for another moment, then obediently closed his eyes.

Shui Jing looked down at his quiet face until he heard his breathing gradually became steady and long, and could not help but bend the corners of his lips.

……

After that day, Xie Wuyi adjusted his schedule to a little more normal according to Shui Jing's words, at least he didn't stay awake for days.

It is not easy to find out the case and convict and deal with the interfering parties separately. Even if the solution is infallible, the case will not be completely closed until the middle of the year.

However, closing the case is not the end. The impact of this matter is extremely bad. Just punishing those involved in the case according to the law still cannot completely calm the dissatisfaction of the people.

Although the army is far away on the northwest border, there is no impenetrable wall in the world. If the relatives of the soldiers who are left behind cannot be appeased properly, how can the soldiers meet the enemy with peace of mind when the wind spreads to the border and disturbs the morale of the soldiers in the future?

Appeasing the people has always been much more difficult than investigating the case, because no matter how complicated the case is, it only needs one "reason", but appeasing the people still requires emotion.

Shui Jing thinks that he can still have a hand in investigating the case, and can help Xie Wushi, but he really can't do anything to appease the people.

He has seen too many great joys and great sorrows in these thousand years, enough to find the similarities by categories, which inevitably makes people feel a little numb.

He really couldn't imagine what kind of expression he should show when faced with a wife or an old mother complaining and complaining.

Smile?Seems out of place.

serious?It seemed impersonal again.

calm?In the eyes of others, that is no different from indifference, and maybe it fails to appease people, and even arouses some anger instead.

That's it, that's it.

It's better not to add chaos.

Seeing that Xie Wuyi was busy with finishing matters such as appeasing the people every day, Shui Jing was also idle, so he simply planned to take the time to go back to Four Seasons Mountain.

The North Sea and the South Sea are far apart, and it takes at least two months to go back and forth. In the past, Shui Jing was not in a hurry to go back because of the sword practice every few days.

He has written more than one booklet in the past few years, if he doesn't send it back again, it will be really cumbersome to carry on his body.

Thinking of this, Shui Jing didn't hesitate any longer, and immediately decided to go back.

Xie Wuyi was often absent in the palace recently, so Shui Jing had no choice but to tell Yanque, asking her to tell her whereabouts, and then set off for the Four Seasons Mountain.

On the way to the north, Shui Jing passed by Daluan and stopped by the Luan Palace.

He originally wanted to see if Yunhe had changed in the past few years, but he didn't expect that when he looked around in the East Palace, there was no sign of Yunhe at all.

Standing in the empty bedroom, Shui Jing couldn't help but smile wryly.

Why are these princes so ignorant now?Why don't they stay in the palace all day, go out and run around?

Thinking about it, he shook his head and planned to turn around and leave.

Just as he was about to turn around, he suddenly caught a glimpse of something that he hadn't expected at all.

It just lay upright on the head of Yunhe's bed, side by side with the jade pillow, as if sharing the same bed with Yunhe every day.

"New Law of Dayu".

Shui Jing was really surprised, when he got closer to the bed and picked it up for a closer look, he realized that it was exactly the manuscript of Yu Wen that he had left somewhere back then.

Today, it is full of densely packed translations into Daluan characters. Countless petty small characters and cinnabar circles fill up the corners of each page, and even the gaps between the lines are filled with annotation.

The original one-inch-thick booklet, due to being repeatedly read and circled, is now a little yellowed and old, and it seems to be nearly twice as thick as before.

Flipping through it, Shui Jing came across a lot of familiar words, military selection system, land reclamation half tax, reward farming and weaving...

Shui Jing's heart skipped a beat, and she suddenly remembered the government orders that Daluan had implemented in recent years.

Could it be... because of this new law?

For a moment, Shui Jing didn't know what to think.Should I lament that causal coincidences are everywhere in the world, or should I lament that I have no intention of meddling in the affairs of various countries, but I still shifted certain trajectories by accident?

Shui Jing closed the new law, stood there and thought for a while, but put it back into his arms instead of putting it back in its original place.

I don't know if it's not too late to make up for it after a dead sheep, but whether it's late or not, it should be done.

After leaving Luan Palace, Shui Jing went straight to Beihai without staying elsewhere.

After crossing the northern border of Daluan, passing through the southern part of Lanzhao, the central grassland and the northern forest, continuing to the north is a series of high mountains.

The mountains running across the east and west are like walls on the edge of the land, separating the bustling and noisy world from the North Sea, which has been silent for thousands of years.

Of course, even the lofty mountains can never stop the footsteps of human beings.

At first, people thought that these mountains were the end of the world, but some people discovered the existence of the North Sea after crossing them. Since then, there will be people from generation to generation in the world. Cross the North Sea and find the real end of the world.

However, none of them succeeded.

Because on the North Sea, Sinan couldn't point the direction correctly at all, and people failed to discover this from the beginning to the end.All they know is that no matter how hard they try, even if they spend hundreds of days at sea, the fleet will eventually return to the origin.

In fact, Shui Jing didn't care if they could find the end of the North Sea, and was even a little curious that if they did find Four Seasons Mountain, what shocking drama scripts would they make up.

However, this is like a joke left by the five gods when the world was created, like a blindfold, hiding the end of the North Sea from the eyes of the world.

When passing through the clouds over the North Sea, Shui Jing really saw a fleet of ships on the sea, but their direction of travel had already deviated from the true north, and they were obviously misled by the confused Si Nan, and they would return to the original route soon .

Because the distance is too far, Shui Jing looks at those boats from above, just like looking at a few pieces of walnut boats carved by craftsmen from the Qiong Kingdom floating in the pond, and the people on the deck are like ants, whether they are tall, short or fat I can't see clearly if I'm thin.

Originally, he didn't have any thoughts when he saw these water mirrors, but now for some reason, he suddenly remembered the time when he went to sea to "eliminate demons" four years ago.

If there were people overlooking them from above at that time, did they see the same scene?When a ship is besieged by swarms of sharks, isn't it like small fish and shrimp knocking over a walnut in a pond?

Thinking about it, Shui Jing felt inexplicably emotional.

Fortunately, he wasn't just watching from the sky at that time, otherwise, if Xie Wuyi was buried in the belly of a fish that day, where would he go to find such a painful little apprentice?

Thinking of Jie Wuyi, the corners of Shui Jing's mouth curled up unconsciously, feeling a little itchy in his heart, and he just wanted to go to Four Seasons Mountain to put down his things quickly, and then return to Yudu by the same way.

With that in mind, he did the same.

After returning to Four Seasons Mountain, Shui Jing hurriedly put the booklets written in the past few years and the "Dayu New Law" there casually, then turned and left the wooden house.

When he arrived at the door, his footsteps paused again, remembering that Xie Wuyi seemed to be very interested in the descriptions in those books, so he turned around and picked out an interesting book from the pile he had written before, and fumbled for it from the box in the corner. Putting several things into his arms together, he left the house contentedly, and flew back and forth.

On the way back, Shui Jing remembered the time he had told Yanque before leaving, without any delay, and finally arrived in Yudu on the evening of the last day of the two-month period.

Arriving at Yu Palace, Shui Jing went straight to the East Palace, but unexpectedly missed.

The sun is almost setting, where did people go?
