Blade of Wind

Not long after, I heard footsteps coming from outside. I was anxiously looking at the door to see who it was, but that person came in through the window.

A boy of fourteen or fifteen years old, wearing navy blue clothes, with a turban of the same color on his head, his handsome face was full of anger at this moment, he first took a look at Aao when he came in, and then pointed at me. The nose scolded unceremoniously.

"Isn't this still with a unicorn around? How dare you mess around like this! What do you think you are doing? Who do you think you are? Well, it's fine if you don't run around like someone else, and make trouble in other countries ! What the hell is going on in your head! Do you know what the consequences of such a thing may be..."

I didn't wait for him to finish cursing, and immediately gave him a big hug as soon as I stretched out my hand, "I miss you so much, Sixth Wife."

"Let... let go!" the young man cried out angrily, blushing and struggling, "what on earth do you want to do, woman? Listen carefully to what she has to say!"

Just then there was a chuckle at the door, I turned my head to look over, and saw Shang Long in casual clothes leaning against the door, looking at me with a faint smile.

"Lord Fenghan!" I left the sixth wife of Yanqi and flew towards him.

Shang Long stretched his arms to catch me, hugged me, then stretched out his hand to pinch my nose, "Although my red deer is rambunctious, but this time he is right. You are a little bit too courageous, and that kind of thing can't be done." Dare to do it!"

I snorted unconvinced, "Am I bold, or are they bold? After knowing my identity, they are still scheming. Let's not talk about it. They have colluded with officials and gangsters, and they have done so many bad things for so many years... "

"That's also Liu Guo's business, and it's not up to you, the king of Fang Kingdom, to take care of it!" Liu Tai interjected, "It's a good thing this time, otherwise, what will the people of Fang Kingdom do? How long have you been on the throne? If the Emperor of Heaven commits a crime, how much more suffering they will have to endure, have you considered? Your unicorn will also die tragically because of your impulsiveness, do you understand?"

...When he said that, I had no choice but to swallow the words on my lips.

I actually... have thought about the consequences, but it seems that maybe I think too lightly.Thinking of this, I couldn't help but raised my eyes to look at Ao.

He didn't look very happy, but he still smiled at me reluctantly and said, "Don't worry, I'm fine. If I'm sick, I'll be born sooner."

The Sixth Wife followed suit and snorted, "Are you worried now that you just remembered?"

I frowned, Shang Long raised his hand to smooth things over, and said, "Okay, okay, Xiaojie and the others are running around all the way, let them have a rest first, let's talk about it after dinner."

The sixth wife was obviously really angry, she didn't bother to eat with us at all, she turned around and disappeared, and didn't come back until dark.

I ate, took a shower, leaned on the soft and comfortable couch, and let out a long breath. I felt that my whole body was really relaxed for the first time since I met the robbers in Liuguo.

He didn't bother to move when he heard someone knocking on the door, so he turned his head and asked, "Who is it?"

"Me." Shang Long's voice sounded outside.

I laughed, "Who are you?"

"The person who came to see you for a drink." He replied, pushed the door in by himself, and shook the flagon in his hand to me.

I squinted at him, "What? Even if I was staying at your place, I wouldn't have broken into a girl's room uninvited like this, right?"

He didn't feel guilty at all, raised his long eyebrows, and sat down across from me, and put the jug on the low table, "I broke in, what do you do?"

...what can I do?This is his territory, is it possible to beat him out?

I had no choice but to give him a blank look and scold him, "You scoundrel!"

Shang Long just smiled, took two glasses and poured wine, "Come on, let me make you an apology."

I snorted, too lazy to talk to him.

He didn't care too much, put a glass of wine on my side, picked up another glass, took a sip, and said: "The sixth wife is just impatient, there is no malice, don't blame him."

Of course I knew that, and it was impossible to blame him for such a thing.Although... being pointed and scolded by Zhu Jing, who looks like only 12 years old, and being pointed and scolded by Mrs. Liu, who looks like [-], [-], is really not a pleasant experience.

I just mumbled, "I know."

"The Qilin is like this. He heard that something happened in the Liu country, and he knew that you just went to the Liu country, so he was very worried. Otherwise, why would he come here with me to wait for you?"

I looked up at him, a little puzzled, "How do you know I did it?"

Shang Long laughed out loud, "There is no such thing as a god descending into the world to punish evil and repel rape, let alone a small prefect. The wrath of the emperor here... will only be applied to Qilin. So As soon as that incident spread, I guessed it was you. Over the years, I haven't seen a second person with a general running around."

He paused for a moment, then his expression became serious, "But in this matter, you were indeed reckless."

I pursed my lips and argued reluctantly, "You didn't see...the arrogance of that corrupt official..."

Shang Long raised his hand and interrupted me, "Have they ever mentioned the crime of face-to-face with you?"

I nodded, "But..."

"Then have you ever thought about why the Emperor of Heaven committed such a serious crime?" Shang Long interrupted me again.

I was stunned for a moment before tentatively answering: "Is it to prevent aggression between countries?"

Shang Long didn't say yes or no, but said slowly: "It's not that the eunuch should not be punished, but this matter should not be done by you. You have to remember, you can't be happy Qiu is a knight-errant, but the majestic king of a country. This time you feel that a prefect has done something wrong, so you set fire to his garden. What if you think Liu Wang has done something wrong? Are you going to burn Fenhua? palace?"

"I wouldn't..."

I couldn't help arguing, but was interrupted by Shang Long, "But I can't guarantee that others won't. I can't guarantee that you won't in the future. Who can guarantee that they will always be right? Naturally, the problems of a country can only be resolved by that country itself. If you can meddle in the affairs of other countries at will, who can guarantee that no one will use the name of righteousness to realize their ambitions?"

I shut up.

Shang Long said again: "Even if the leader of a country loses his way and the country is ruined, but with the help of neighboring countries, it can always survive. But if there is a war between countries, no matter what the reason is, the world will never have peace. If you can beat willows, you will be able to beat wild geese for celebration tomorrow, and if this is the case, the common people will really suffer.”

He was born in the Warring States Period, and he had personally experienced wars, so he was naturally deeply touched by these things, and he couldn't see a trace of the casual expression on his face that usually played in the world.

I lowered my eyes and sighed, "In this way, why did the Emperor of Heaven insist on dividing the world into twelve countries? If there was only one country, wouldn't there be no disputes? Anyway, this place is not like that. across cultural differences."

When I said that, Shang Long was stunned for a moment, and then showed a dumbfounded expression, and stretched out his hand to pinch my nose, "...your focus is still so special!"

I blinked, "Did I say something wrong?"

"No, it's nothing." Shang Long smiled, drank his glass of wine, took the flagon and poured it slowly, "It's just that the current rules are like this, before trying to overthrow the established rules, we still have to first Think about how to do your best within the rules."

I don't quite get it.

Shang Long said again: "I think, God's will... I still hope that it will be stable and stable."

In this way, Shang Long is a hands-off shopkeeper. He often does not go to court for ten days and a half months.And the master of another long-lived Guoqian is said to be a well-known honest elder.They are all following the route of steady development and letting nature take its course, and it has been doing well for hundreds of years.

I tilted my head slightly and didn't speak.

Shang Long laughed again, "It's okay, take it easy, anyway, there is plenty of time. Come, drink."

That's right.

I sighed, put all these things aside, reached out to pick up the wine glass in front of me, and touched him lightly.

The author has something to say: I have been struggling with the setting of Twelve Kingdoms for a long time again...it's really depressing...
