Who is the world

The gloomy sun shines on the ground in the winter afternoon, and the snow and ice crystals reflect the light. Occasionally, a few snowflakes shake off the branches, blown into the air by the gust of wind, hovering and flying to the sky, and then falling to the unknown place. distance.

A group of people and horses stepped on the official road neatly, leaving deep horseshoe marks one by one, extending all the way.

They didn't gallop, but kept moving forward at a normal speed.

The two figures in the lead, one black and one white, walked side by side without haste. Xu Zixu didn't deliberately lag behind, and Chu Yi didn't deliberately slow down either.

Although they were walking slowly, the guards behind them did not appear lazy and disorderly. Instead, they all looked solemn and well-trained, which showed their strict discipline.

No one talked to anyone along the way, only the whistling wind, the clattering of horseshoes and the hunting of the cloak behind them.

In this silence without human voices, Xu Zixu held the rein loosely with his bandaged left hand, letting Xue Ying trample freely, looking at the road ahead, pursing his thin lips, and slightly furrowing his brows.

The matter was resolved smoothly, and it took only four days before and after.

Opening the door early in the morning, the snow that had not melted in the courtyard had thickened again, and there were still countless ice crystals floating in the gray sky. It was not until noon that the clouds were cleared. Therefore, Chu Yi and the others postponed their trip until the afternoon. .

Looking at the snowflakes falling from the treetops, Xu Zixu couldn't help but think of the previous scene again.

The official bank case came to light, and a group of participants were arrested one after another. After counting, there were as many as nearly a hundred people who were inseparable from the case. They confessed and pleaded guilty in front of Chu Yi's thunderous wrist and iron evidence. The evidence was conclusive. For those who were imprisoned and exiled, the masterminds, Shangguan Ying and the county magistrate, were ordered to be executed at noon yesterday.

Generally speaking, although the case is serious, the consequences are not extensive. Only three people were sentenced to death, which can be called extremely merciful.

For the vacant official positions, Chu Yi did not transfer people from Wangcheng Shuangjing, but directly selected talents from Bubicheng for promotion on the spot.

For Shangguan Ting's death, Chu Yi gave him a posthumous title, and the funeral was treated with royal ceremonies, and his body was buried in the Hero Tomb, which ensured that he would have a clear name for the rest of his life.

Except for the mastermind Shangguan Yingfu, the rest of the Shangguan family were not implicated.

After this change, the huge Shangguan family has been traumatized, but it has not shown signs of decline. Chu Yi's actions show that he has clear rewards and punishments, and he still has high hopes for the Shangguan family.

The city lord of Bubu City is still in the hands of the Shangguan family. The new city lord, Shangguan Xiyu, seems to behave and talk no less than Shangguan Ting, but he is born in a side that has always been ignored. Compared with Shangguan Ting's reputation, He may be under unusual pressure.

As for the succession, Chu Yi did not intervene. It seems that this time the rivalry between the clan and the offshoots was entirely the result of the competition within the Shangguan family.

On the other hand, Chu Yi valued Yun Fei's ingenuity and research ability on gunpowder. He once asked if he would like to go to Shuangjing together, but was politely refused. He was not annoyed, and instead smiled and asked what kind of reward the other party wanted.

As Yunfei and the others, it was a great fortune not to be questioned, and to be honest, they didn't have much credit this time, so how dare he ask for a reward, and refused to ask Shangguan Xiyu to ask to stay.

Yun Fei and the others were also righteous bandits. After seeing the methods of Chu Yi and Xu Zixu, they were naturally convinced. Wishing, considering various considerations, he decided to stay in Bubi City, and the group was formally enrolled in the military, and Yun Fei became Shangguan Xiyu's military advisor.

Xu Zixu saw everything in his eyes, but he didn't understand it very well.

Regardless of whether it was Shangguan Xiyu or Yun Fei, on the surface, Chu Yi seemed to stay out of the matter completely. However, the subtleties involved were clear in the minds of the several parties involved.

This grace of knowledge and encounter has won countless times.

This man cleverly did not intervene in the interior of the city, but quietly arranged his chess pieces everywhere, further strengthening his power.

In all fairness, Xu Zixu had to admit that Chu Yi was indeed unfathomable.

The matter of personnel has been decided, and the returned official bank has also been escorted to various impoverished areas to start purchasing winter supplies, building houses, and setting up schools.

At this point, the matter finally came to an end, and everyone was about to leave the palace, and the accident happened at a moment when everyone was caught off guard.

Shangguan Yi, who rushed back from the dust, only had time to attend the funeral of his father Shangguan Ying and uncle Shangguan Ting.

The 16-year-old boy faced the great changes with an unusually calm expression. In contrast, the [-]- and [-]-year-old children around him had violent emotional ups and downs.

Xu Zixu couldn't bear it in his heart, just as he was about to go forward, he saw a flash of silver light, he was startled, and hurriedly dodged sideways, but unexpectedly the child's charge was very fierce, because he was about to fall straight down from the high steps in a flash.

Seeing something bad happened, Xu Zixu had no choice but to fly forward again and hug the child who was about to fall. At this moment, the child grabbed the dagger and stabbed him, Xu Zixu had to free up one hand to block it.

After this round and round, the two had already landed safely, and the child took a few steps back guardedly to stay away from Xu Zixu, his eyes of hatred were undisguised.

Xu Zixu looked down and saw that the palm of his left hand was bleeding profusely, and his white clothes were instantly stained with red marks.

Chu Yi's face darkened.

Seeing this change, Shangguan Xiyu and the others couldn't help but shudder, and they all knelt down: "Your Highness Sixth, forgive me!"

"Report to His Majesty the Sixth Highness, this son's name is Shangguan Xilin, he is a posthumous son, the former city lord took pity on his background and adopted him by his side, but this time he has committed such a crime of treason..."

"Then City Lord Shangguan, how do you deal with this matter?" Chu Yiqing asked indifferently.

Xu Zixu noticed what he meant, stepped forward slightly, and stood between Chu Yi and Shangguan Xilin, with a displeased face, letting the blood drip with his fingertips on the marble floor.

Chu Yi stared at him intently, his gaze changing rapidly, and finally he slightly curled the corner of his lips, without saying a word.

At this time, someone had already brought a doctor over, carefully diagnosed and bandaged.It looked like the blood was bleeding terribly, but the wound was actually not very deep and did not hurt the tendons or bones.

But because Chu Yi didn't say a word, and his expression was unpredictable, the Shangguan family couldn't figure out his intentions, and they were obviously still trembling.

"Why don't you always cherish yourself? With your ability, can't you avoid that blow?"

Xu Zixu didn't respond, just turned around and left.

"Xu Zixu!" Chu Yi yelled, and immediately said in a calm tone, "You don't even think about how sad it would be if the young master knew that his father was always getting hurt!"

Xu Zixu paused and took another step.

Chu Yi watched his leaving back, snorted coldly, looked back at Shangguan Xilin who was full of hatred, and smiled softly: "Want to take revenge?"

"You killed my third uncle!"

Shangguan Yi tightly held on to the child who wanted to rush up again.

"That's good!" Chu Yi walked over, half squatted down, and was level with the child, and said softly, "Come on! Look at this face clearly."

Shangguan Xilin didn't know what it meant, but under Chu Yi's eyes, he couldn't help but took half a step back, his slightly trembling body didn't know whether it was because of hatred or something else, and Chu Yi said again:

"Remember, my name is Chu Yi. And that person just now—" Word by word, the deep and solemn voice was full of pressure, "It is definitely not your enemy."

"Understood?" Chu Yi stared at him closely, with such eyes, any experienced, treacherous and cunning person could not be afraid, until the child subconsciously nodded, Chu Yi then stood up with satisfaction , flicked his sleeves, and his tone became much more relaxed, "Want to take revenge? That's fine. Let's practice slowly for a few more years! Also, before doing anything, remember to find out the truth of the matter before you act. Don't humiliate you three years ago." Uncle's reputation!"

Shangguan Xilin was slightly taken aback, seeing that Chu Yi was about to leave, he hurriedly shouted: "I will definitely kill you!"

"I'll wait." Chu Yi smiled heavily, "Just, don't find the wrong person! Babe!" After speaking, he strode down the steps, with his personal guards closely following him.

"What are you thinking about?"

Once Xu Zixu regained his senses, he turned his head to see Chu Yi's eyes were looking straight ahead, his expression was calm.

"Do you think I'm indecisive and a woman's benevolence?"

"Oh?" Chu Yi raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard the words, and then laughed out loud.

Seeing this, Xu Zixu's face darkened instantly.

"Regret?" Chu Yi restrained slightly, looked sideways at the person walking beside him, with the lingering aftertaste of a big laugh still on his face.

"I should be asking you that."

"Xu Zixu, are you wondering why I let them go?"

"Then what do you want to say?"

Chu Yi smiled again, did not respond directly, looked up at the vast sky, and sighed: "In the world, there is always too much helplessness, too much blood and tears, too much joy and sorrow."

Xu Zixu was taken aback, and wanted to take a closer look at him, but the other party took a quick step on his horse and opened the distance, which also made Xu Zixu unable to see his expression clearly for a moment.

Xu Zixu looked at Xu Xing's figure in front of him, recalled that sigh with unclear meaning, and couldn't help but ponder for a while.

He didn't think he had the ability to influence Chu Yi's decision, but his tone would severely punish everyone and kill chickens to make an example of monkeys, but in the end he didn't pursue it. The deep meaning of this person...

In addition, what was Chu Yi's motive for saying those words to him that night?How could a person like him, such a smart and deep person, say such words casually, wouldn't it be obvious that it would be disappointing and chilling?And for a superior person, the most taboo thing is to lose people's hearts.How could he not understand this truth?

If it is not true, then its intention...

What happened to Shangguan Ting did remind Xu Zixu of his own situation. What Chu Yi said was what he cared about and was painful, but that man said it in such a tone!

A shrewd person like him would never do such a mindless thing on a whim, so what is he planning?
