Chapter 90 Sanli Zhizhi (3k for Subscription)
Lin Shou tapped the table lightly with his fingers, and the peach blossoms bloomed and withered on his knuckles, and then new flower buds bloomed.

"This guy can appear in front of Pindao without a sound, and his strength may not be lower than [Mythology]..."

"But [myth] is clearly not able to walk in this world... unless you succeed in ascending to the gods in this world, but how could there be no record of the movement of ascending to the gods?"

"The Confucian sage's handbook that Mr. Zhong showed to the poor Taoist said that all the recorded myths have gone to the astral world, or were killed by the three Taoists."

"If it is a [myth] that came from the astral world or the subspace, the three Taoists are not vegetarians..."

"If it is true as he said, he is just an incarnation of him, then his body is probably stronger than the myth..."

"How do you feel that the world has become more and more dangerous since Pindao was born?"

Lin Shou smiled self-deprecatingly.

"The bull-nosed Taoist priest from the Lingbao Sect said before that a great world is coming, maybe it's because of this reason."

"Speaking of the Lingbao Sect, Yue Shanshan hasn't replied to a letter until now, and I don't know what's going on."

At this moment, Lin Shou keenly sensed a furtive figure appearing on the wall of Ping An Residence.

Different from the arrival of the green-robed man, Lin Shou looked at this sneaky figure with a smile on his face.

"Pindao comes here whenever he says anything. It's a coincidence that her letter arrived just as I was talking about that girl."

It turned out that the sneaky figure was just a paper crane. Lin Shou snapped his fingers, and the paper crane flew neatly into Lin Shou's palm.

The paper crane lightly pecked Lin Shou's palm a few times, and then spread it out into a flat sheet of letter paper.

……

On the border official road of Dongsheng Province.

A long convoy was driving slowly on the official road, with a carriage at the head and carts of books behind.

Zhong Yunyi's servant drove the carriage, and Zhong Yunyi, his wife and Zhang Baigui were sitting in the carriage.

Zhang Baigui asked Zhong Yunyi: "Teacher, why are you going back to the capital all of a sudden?"

Zhong Yunyi was holding a copy of "University" in his hand, he was stunned for a moment when he heard Zhang Baigui's question, and then said patiently: "Now that the court is in chaos, His Majesty is seriously ill and must return to the court to preside over the overall situation."

"And the person who presides over the overall situation must not only have a strong enough cultivation base, but also have enough prestige."

Speaking of this, Zhong Yunyi smiled self-deprecatingly: "Speaking of prestige, after the old man was punished with a stick, his prestige in the government and the public is unmatched. It seems that I, Zhong Yunyi, are a straight-talking I'm asking for a name."

Zhang Baigui was ignorant, but he also shook his head and said: "Teacher is wholeheartedly for the country and the people, how could he be the kind of person who just wants to be famous."

Zhong Yunyi rubbed Zhang Baigui's hair, looked at such an intelligent disciple in front of him, felt a little satisfied in his heart, and continued: "The old man once taught you that you must follow your own heart in life, but the court relies on What you do with your original heart is not what the world thinks. You are what the world thinks you are, and what your original heart is is not so important at this moment.”

"Teacher, is everyone in the court like this?" Zhang Baigui's immature voice came. Although he had studied with Zhong Yunyi for more than half a year, the court situation was still too difficult for him to understand.

"It's mostly like that!" Zhong Yunyi stroked his beard and said.

"Then why did you go back to the capital, teacher?" Zhang Baigui continued to ask, "It is said in the book that if the world is filthy, then we scholars should be alone."

"Bai Gui, the truth in the book is correct, but how much can you control yourself in this world? And everything in the world is so complicated and changeable, and it is only a few lines in the book that can explain it clearly." " Zhong Yunyi said with a sigh.

"Bai Gui understands a little bit." Zhang Baigui said.

Mrs. Zhong answered at this time and said: "Old Zhong, for what you are going to do this time, it is enough not to punish all three of our clans."

Zhong Yunyi naturally heard the ridicule in his wife's words, but his face was still a little heavy.

"The old man can only say try his best, hehehe..."

Zhong Yunyi said halfway, but there was only a wry smile left.

Mrs. Zhong walked behind Zhong Yunyi and pressed his shoulders for him, and said softly, "I think the emperor is seriously ill this time, and it may involve a dispute for the crown prince. You should be careful, not to mention your ideal... ..."

Mrs. Zhong didn't finish her sentence, but Zhong Yunyi understood what she meant.

Zhang Baigui said: "Teacher, I have never heard you talk about your ideals."

"The ideal of the old man, in summary, is three things; one is to establish virtue, the other is to make meritorious service, and the third is to establish words. The old man thinks that he has a clear conscience, but the latter two are so difficult." Zhong Yunyi sighed, "This old man The second time I return to the capital is to make meritorious service, if I can complete the second of the three, then the old man will die without any regrets."

"Teacher, what are you going to do when you return to the capital?" Zhang Baigui looked at Zhong Yunyi with some admiration in his eyes, and asked.

The young Zhang Baigui had a great yearning for Zhong Yunyi's "Sanliyi" theory.

"Do you remember what I said to you when I accepted you as a disciple?" Zhong Yunyi said.

Zhang Baigui nodded and said, "Remember!"

"When Lin Daochang and I first met, we also asked each other this question," Zhong Yunyi said.

Zhang Baigui also had a very respectful attitude towards Lin Shou, and asked, "What does Taoist Lin say?"

"There are many people who eat it." Zhong Yunyi let out a long breath, "How can this old man not know, but he is not as free and easy as Lin Daochang, who can speak out directly."

"There are many people who eat, but the wealth does not increase much. Why?! The land is also merged!"

"Who is the annexer? The rich and powerful!"

Speaking of this, Zhong Yunyi felt a wave of anger for no reason, and the book in his hand was crumpled.

"These dignitaries take advantage of the indistinct division of power, unscrupulously take advantage of the system's loopholes, and seek a lot of benefits from it."

"If after returning to Beijing this time, the emperor really entrusts this old man with a heavy responsibility, then this old man must complete two things!"

"The first thing is to reform the system. The official system of the Sangong and Jiuqing has lasted for thousands of years without any change. How can the system of the previous dynasty perfectly govern the current affairs, so it must be reformed!"

"The second thing is to divide the land by mu. The dignitaries occupy a large amount of land and squander it recklessly, but who of them has planted a single grain, and how can they be worthy of the power and wealth they have?!"

"If both of these things are accomplished, the old man will not regret it even though he has almost died!"

Zhang Baigui looked at Zhong Yunyi with admiration, and a heroic affection surged in his heart, wanting to become a teacher with such great ambitions.

Mrs. Zhong smiled helplessly, patted Zhong Yunyi on the back, and said softly: "Why do you talk so hard, you are old, even if you are a practitioner, you should pay attention to your body." .”

While the three of them were talking, there was a sudden noise outside.

Zhong Yunyi frowned, lifted the curtain and walked out.

However, he found that there was another convoy running parallel to him on the official road, but these convoys were not loaded with goods or pedestrians, but prison cars guarded by a large number of soldiers.

Zhong Yunyi stopped one of the soldiers who seemed to be of high rank, and asked him: "What's going on, why are there so many prisoners?"

The soldier looked at Zhong Yunyi wearing a Confucian robe and carrying so many books, subconsciously felt a little awe, so he cupped his hands and said: "These prisoners have all committed capital crimes and are sent to the capital to wait asked to be cut."

"According to the laws of Daqian, death row prisoners can be executed directly after a review in the local county, and then the files will be handed over to Tingwei. Why should they be sent to the capital?" Zhong Yunyi asked.

"This...I don't know about it, I just follow the orders from above." The soldier was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't understand the matter very well.

Zhong Yunyi was a little puzzled by this. It stands to reason that he would not waste such time and energy on these death row prisoners. Wouldn't it be superfluous to send them to the capital for execution?

At this moment, there was a commotion in the prisoner transport team, and soon a big soldier hurried over to report: "Lieutenant Zhu, there are... a group of moving corpses driving the refugees towards our team." come over?"

"What?!" Colonel Zhu was furious, "Why are they mummy again?! We can't let those refugees attack our team, or it will cause chaos. If they dare to step into the official road, they will be killed on the spot!"

Zhong Yunyi frowned, and when he heard Captain Zhu's words, he glared at him and said, "Why did you issue the killing order so easily? If something evil is causing trouble, you should help. How can you kill the people directly?"

But I didn't expect Zhu Xiaowei to hear this, directly pulled out the knife on his waist, and said: "I have a military order, how can I violate it without authorization? These refugees boarded the official road without paying the road tax. I'm guilty, I didn't order the direct killing, it's already a good intention, not to mention those mummies are so difficult to deal with, those worthless refugees, it can be considered useful to sacrifice for our military situation! Pass my general order to leave here quickly !"

During the conversation, everyone could already see a group of ragged refugees fleeing towards the position where there were officers and soldiers with difficulty. Maybe they also hoped that these officers and soldiers could save their lives.

When Zhong Yunyi heard what Captain Zhu said, he yelled angrily: "Bastard, you are in vain as a general, just because the evil spirits are harder to deal with than the common people, so you are going to deal with those common people?!"

Lieutenant Zhu's face sank when he heard this, he held a knife and said to Zhong Yunyi: "If you dare to speak like that again, I will kill you too!"

Zhong Yunyi was furious, and his righteousness burst out suddenly, crushing the mummies chasing the refugees.

Seeing this, the common people quickly knelt on the ground and shouted the divine power of the immortals, while the mummified corpses turned into puddles of gray mucus and disappeared on the ground.

Captain Zhu looked at Zhong Yunyi in horror, the knife in his hand had already fallen to the ground, trembling all over, at a loss.

Zhong Yunyi took a deep breath and shouted, "Get lost!"
