I, Seimei, can't be an audiophile

Even if he was mentally prepared, Li Qingming couldn't help being taken aback when he actually saw Mr. Daoman.

Mr. Daoman was informal at first, but it was probably because of his mental outlook. At that time, looking at Mr. Daoman who was in good spirits, he would only feel that he was a bit of a quack, and his behavior seemed casual and generous, very chic.

Li Qingming suddenly didn't even recognize the man in front of him as Master Daoman.

His face was sallow, with deep dark circles under his eyes, and his hair was messy, obviously not combed often.

Judging from the loose and sloppy clothes, it is estimated that he has not gone out for a long time, very similar to the state of a college student who stays up late to catch up on his thesis.

But there are still many wrinkles on his face, which adds a strong sense of decadence to the unemployed staying up late to play games.

What was even more frightening was that when he saw Lord Qingming who had been his teacher, Lord Daoman had no respect at all, and the contempt and hostility in his eyes that could not be concealed made Li Qingming feel terrified.

Li Qingming hesitated for a moment, and finally said: "Long time no see."

Ashiya Michimitsu was stunned for a moment, then his eyes flickered with excitement and surprise: "Master Seimei?"

Li Qingming laughed: "Won't you let me go in and sit for a while?"

Daoman hurriedly said: "Come in quickly—no, please wait a moment, give me a little time, right away!"

Ashiya Daoman rushed back into the house, only to hear clanging inside, and he was in a state of confusion. He came out after a while, and he had already arranged his hair and clothes, more like Master Daoman in Li Qingming's memory.

The two went in, and Daoman let him into the living room facing the courtyard.Looking at the living room which was too empty and there was nothing but a low table, Li Qingming was very suspicious of where Master Daoman had thrown the original things in it just now.

"Sorry for making you laugh."

Master Daoman hurriedly went to make tea again, which made Li Qingming feel a little sorry.But he didn't make a sound. In the Heian era, this was a proper etiquette. When superiors came to see subordinates, the subordinates naturally had to entertain them. Refusing to entertain would actually show contempt and distrust of the other party's performance.Daoman's family has no servants, so Master Daoman can only do it himself.

Thinking about it this way, although the income of an onmyoji is high, if they have personal hobbies, such as collecting spell objects and spell tools, it must cost a lot.

Seimei-sama has no worries about food and clothing because he is backed by Kamo's family, and Seimei-sama is a yin and yang helper, so the salary is of course not at the same level.

In addition to daily expenses, if ordinary onmyojis spend money on magic research, most of them will be a bit stretched.Both learning and research require cost, which is true in any era.

From this point of view, Ye Wang has done a very good job, making the family business bigger and bigger. This is probably related to Ye Wang's ability to see people's hearts and establish personal connections more easily.

Moreover, people from Ye Wang's patriarchal family defected to Ye Wang, and they certainly did not come completely empty-handed.

This is the reason why everyone gathers firewood and the flames are high. I am afraid that King Ma Cang Ye hates their hypocrisy on the one hand.

On the other hand, it is impossible to refuse the contacts and wealth they bring.Life will never be perfect. If you want to get something, you will always have to pay some sacrifices and patience.

Seeing Master Daoman's current state, Li Qingming finally made up his mind to tell Master Manchu the truth.He was thinking about how to speak, but Lord Daoman spoke first.

"I didn't expect... to see you again. Master Qingming, you have been that man for the past two years."

Master Daoman spoke quite sadly about his own mental journey during this period.

Originally, Master Daoman's star-chasing effect on Master Qingming stems from his recognition of Master Qingming's ability and the various favorable measures Li Qingming has taken for the common people since that time.

Lord Daoman has always believed that a savior like Li Qingming should spend his time on benefiting the people. Anyone can do the work of an onmyoji, but he is the only onmyoji who brings benefits to the people and benefits the people.

After dealing with several tasks together with Li Qingming, Lord Daoman finally accepted the fact that 'a genius is a genius everywhere', 'if he is good at spells, he can indeed benefit the people at the same time'.

However, after Master Seimei came back, this cognition shattered again.

Not long after Lord Seimei came back, it was just in time for the change of power. With the ability to predict the future and Emperor Suzaku's spoiler, Lord Seimei knew that the emperor's change would happen soon.

In order to protect the He Mao family and his friend Yuan Boya, he devoted himself to gaining power.Master Seimei, who was very picky at first, only doing tasks assigned by the constitutional protection, began to take the initiative to accept some jobs assigned by the upper-class celebrities he was optimistic about.

Of course, he won't take jobs that are too boring. The jobs he chooses are all related to ghosts and ghosts, or related to divination, which are very suitable for making use of the expertise of onmyojis.

But in Daoman's eyes, this is a betrayal of the people.Ashiya Domitsu, who climbed up from the bottom to become an onmyoji, inherently distrusted the upper-class nobles and even the emperor.

In his opinion, it was equivalent to that Lord Seimei had become the kind of official he hated, betraying the people who needed him.

Li Qingming can understand Lord Qingming's choice. If he knows that Senior Howard is in a dangerous situation, he will try his best to do something, even if it goes against his own preferences.

He could also understand Lord Daoman's indignation. From the perspective of an outsider who didn't know the details, it really looked like an upright person who had become an upright person, so he would naturally be disappointed.

Li Qingming had to say something fair for Master Qingming on the basis of not revealing too much about the future as much as possible.

"Master Qingming has his own difficulties, among other things, it was the Ka Mo family who brought up Master Qingming and taught him various knowledge and spells.

It can be said that without the Ka Mo family, there would be no Seimei-sama now.If Master Seimei is only pursuing the enjoyment of his own life, he can continue to enjoy the various benefits of the Ka Mo family with peace of mind.It is precisely because he hopes to help Lord Baoxian that he wants to stand on his own. He just wants to gain the power to protect important people. "

As he spoke, he persuaded from another side.

"Moreover, the people and the superiors are not always in natural opposition. If it's just exploitation and oppression, no one can bear someone sitting on their head to rule them all the time.

If His Highness the Emperor only thought about himself, there would be no need to set up a yin and yang room with so many functions.

Astronomy, water conservancy, medicine, yin and yang, some of these are for the emperor, and more are for the better life of the people.

You don’t need me to tell you about the importance of the calendar.Daoman, serving the emperor does not mean that you are the enemy of the common people, even if you take a step back, isn't it the one who gives you your salary and salary? "

Li Qingming knew in his heart that the imperial power must oppress the common people, which is the limitation of the times.

In such an era, it is very rare for the upper class to not forget the people on the premise of living comfortably.

As individuals, they can't do much, they can only say that they try their best to do their best.Lord Daoman's idea is also correct, but the system of each era is the inevitable result of the productivity of that era. Even if the current thinking is used in the past era, it will lead to greater disasters due to the incompatibility of both parties.

——If Mr. Daoman was placed in modern times, he would probably be a revolutionary!But in ancient times, as a courtier of the emperor, sitting in the position of power and at the same time spurning power will only make people around him feel that he is both standing and standing, which will attract people's hatred.It's no wonder Master Daoman was squeezed out by the people around him, maybe it has something to do with it.

Human nature is such that we can accept 'outsiders' to be considerate or join us, and it doesn't matter if we appear to be partial to outsiders occasionally, because we are outsiders after all.

However, it is not acceptable for a 'companion' to be considerate of outsiders, as that would cause a strong sense of betrayal.

If Master Daoman was not an Onmyoji, then his thoughts might not make the people around him so disgusted.

Just because he is an onmyoji, and he is a powerful class, other nobles and courtiers naturally cannot accept his idea of ​​favoring common people and criticizing nobles.

Master Daoman still seemed a little indignant, but he didn't refute directly.Li Qingming didn't say anything further. After all, it wasn't Mr. Daoman who was wrong, but the productivity and social system of this era were too backward.

"How is your math now? Have you studied hard in other subjects?"

Li Qingming changed the subject, but with one sentence, Lord Daoman was hit hard.

Lord Daoman lowered his head, looking as miserable as if he had been beaten by Shuang.

Li Qingming: "Could it be... not studying at all? Ye Wang is teaching himself arithmetic."

Lord Daoman murmured: "I know, I know! That guy has money and resources! Even if I want to learn, I can't even buy a book!"

Only then did Li Qingming realize that books in this era are still a rare commodity with a price but no market.

No matter how rich you are, you can't buy particularly precious books without access.

In particular, arithmetic in this era is not a common reference book, but a very professional book. Master Qingming can easily obtain books and knowledge from the He Mao family, and King Ma Cangye also has those clansmen who later turned to him.Only Lord Daoman has no power, power or family, so it is naturally difficult to find a way to obtain mathematics books.

"I have a lot of math books. I will send someone over to you next time. You have to copy a set yourself and return the book to me. I will also leave a message to Lord Qingming and tell him about it. Qingming The adult is your teacher, you can always ask him to borrow books when you need them."

Hearing these words, Master Daoman was shocked: "Will you change back?"

Li Qingming nodded: "Well, it should be back after a while."

Master Daoman hurriedly said: "It's actually like this... Please come with me!"

Lord Daoman brought Li Qingming into the inner room. Li Qingming was shocked when he saw the smell of blood and all kinds of objects in the room, especially the several human bodies hanging on the wall like clothes.

"Master Qingming, with my research, you can leave that guy and have your own body!" Master Daoman proudly said, "Or separate that guy, you can use your current body freely, and you can always stay!"

Li Qingming: Li Qingming: Ah, this.

He finally discovered that the seriousness of the problem here with Mr. Daoman is not even one star at all.
