Too much fruit

Chapter 559 It’s not you who tests me, it’s me who tests you

It's night, Tianshui Gorge.

The moonlight was like frost, falling on the top of the canyon, illuminating two figures standing and sitting.

Zhu Huian was sitting on the stone bench, with his eyes half open and half closed. In front of him was a stone table with a small stove holding a copper pot. At this time, water mist was rising from the pot, and the water inside was boiling.

"Mingyuan, you go down first."

Zhu Huian slowly opened his eyes and said calmly.

In addition to the kettle, there is also a tea set on the stone table. There are currently two tea cups on it. One belongs to Zhu Hui'an himself, but the other obviously does not belong to the young man standing next to him.

When the young Confucian scholar named "Ming Yuan" heard this, his lips wriggled and he stopped talking. Then he bowed and retired.

Zhu Hui'an picked up the kettle and brewed tea in a smooth flow. Then he made a cup first and put his hand on the table.

"Shen Nong tasted hundreds of herbs, encountered seventy-two poisons every day, and got tea to relieve them. The origin of tea begins with Jiang family. Jiang family's tea is the best in the world, especially Lieshan tea."

The tea cup moved silently to the opposite side, and Zhu Hui'an said lightly: "This strong mountain tea was a gift given to me by Jiang Tao, the head of the Jiang family, when I was a guest of the Jiang family. However, since I got this tea, I have never opened it once, and I have never taken a sip. I’ve never drank before, and today is the first time.”

A wisp of breeze drifted across the stone table, and a hand as white as glass crystal stretched out from the wind, holding the tea cup just right.

Immediately, Jiang Li's figure slowly emerged, and he said in the same calm tone: "I guess it's definitely not because Mr. is reluctant to drink."

There are people who love tea in this world, and there are people who cling to power. The former will be reluctant to drink the tea because of its preciousness, while the latter will be reluctant to drink it because of the power of the Jiang family. But Zhu Hui'an is obviously neither of these two types of people.

This is a... utilitarian person.

For his purpose, he is willing to make any attempt and pay any price he can. The saying that he is reluctant to part with tea leaves does not hold true for him. The Jiang family has already moved overseas for four years and has long since lost power. Naturally, it is impossible to talk about clinging to power.

"We have different ways and don't work together. I can't drink Jiang's tea," Zhu Hui'an said.

He obviously looks like he is only in his thirties or forties, but he already calls himself "old man". There is a sense of vicissitudes in his words and an ambition like that of an old man. The old man is still aiming for a thousand miles, not to mention that Zhu Hui'an is actually not old. He can live for another two or three hundred years at least. If he is willing to enter the blessed land of cave heaven, he can still push back in this world.

Even the ambition that cannot be erased by old age is now placed in a body that is not yet old, burning like a fire.

That's why it is said that he is a utilitarian person, so utilitarian that he tries to seize every opportunity, including Jiang Li.

"I guess it's because Mr. Jiang has no intention of overstepping his bounds."

Jiang Li spoke slowly and placed a book with star symbols printed on it on the stone table.

——"Beichen Bian".

A book about the Beichen starry sky, and a book written by Zhu Hui'an himself on astronomy research.

And Beichen Star also has a universal name - "Ziweixing".

That is, the Emperor Star.

Especially in the Zhou Dynasty, the noble significance of Ziwei Star was particularly important. Ji family regarded Ziwei Star as the symbol of their ancestor Huangdi. The so-called Xuanyuan was the Beidou Emperor's chariot.

Take out a book like this, the meaning is self-explanatory.

Zhu Hui'an looked at the book with no hint of being exposed and said: "There is no absolutely perfect system in the world. Just because the original intention is good does not mean that the system will be good. If the original intention can withstand the test of time, it does not mean that the system will be good." It can withstand it, not to mention that the current Great Zhou Dynasty may not have that original intention. The state system of the Great Zhou Dynasty has lasted for eight hundred years, and it is time to change."

"When Jiang's ocher whip was lost, at that time, a thunderbolt fell on the nine places and went straight into the netherworld. Since then, the chieftain of the Yinlu Department has been in seclusion. Seeing the opportunity, I personally went to the capital of the gods to knock on the ocher whip. Side attack, verbal hints, let him prepare in advance. Unfortunately, he just entertained me well and gave me a bag of strong mountain tea as a gift." Zhu Hui'an's eyes moved slightly, and he slowly made himself a cup of tea, and the words reflected in the tea There was a hint of sarcasm on his face, "I don't know if he regretted his actions that day when he died."

The Jiang family is qualified to ascend the throne and accommodate the Emperor's Daoguo, and as long as the Emperor's Daoguo is accommodated, all the people in the world will obey orders. In a sense, this qualification is not just talk, but something that can actually be achieved.

Only Jiang can obtain the Emperor's Dao Fruit.

At that time, the emperor's life was running out. He only had to wait ten years or so before he would die. And since Tu Bo made the first move, it was not a bad idea for Jiang to fight back.

Prepare in advance, work hard for ten years, and wait for the right time to soar into the sky. That might not mean you can't ascend to the throne, although the probability of success is low...

According to Jiang Li, the head of the Jiang family must have been tempted, otherwise he would not have given him a gift, but he did not take action, and in the end he gave up the risk.

The probability of failure is too high.

Even if Tu Bo is seriously injured and unable to survive, even if the emperor's lifespan is exhausted ten years later, there will still be Tianjun Gongsun Qi, and the Jiang family will only have a third-grade Jiang Tao at that time. Facts also proved that it would fail, and Jiang Tao died suddenly in the imperial city.

Ji's strength is far superior to Jiang's.

It can be seen that Jiang Tao still has foresight, although not much.

And Zhu Hui'an obviously didn't know the shortcomings of the Emperor Daoguo. Even if the Jiang family accommodated Daoguo, they would only follow the old system and not change it. They would only become another Emperor.

But there is no need to tell him this.

After listening to Zhu Hui'an's words, Jiang Li made a brief analysis, and then looked at the books on the table, "So, sir, you are looking for me now?"

Just like before, Zhu Hui'an found Jiang's people again, and his purpose was self-evident.

"Yes!" Zhu Huian held the teacup and said without any secret, "I think you can make it happen."

Jiang Li was the best choice for his strength, potential, power, and fame. The most important thing was that he was able to bend and stretch, be able to make a soft meal, and fight tough battles.

Being able to go from nothing to today, even if it is still at the fifth level, it is still worth investing.

Needless to say, Zhu Hui'an knew that Jiang Li knew all of this. Jiang Li, who has been able to reach this point step by step, should know his own advantages and the status he can achieve.

It is not impossible to reach the 95th Five-Year Plan.

His advantage was even greater than that of Jiang Tao when the head of the Jiang family was still alive.

However, Jiang Li was not tempted. Instead, he had an inexplicable expression, "It seems that Sir has been thinking about it for a long time and understands me in all aspects. However, I don't know Sir very well."

He picked up the tea cup, drank it slowly, and then said: "I came today not to hear whether you can support me, but to see if you can support me."

"It's not you who tests me, it's me who tests you."

　rua, a nice update on my crotch.

　　Yesterday, I said that as long as it was not blocked for review today, it would definitely be updated three times. As a result, it was not blocked during the review, but yesterday's chapter was blocked.

　　I immediately had a mental breakdown. Mr. Lu Shuren was really honest with me. When I saw short sleeves, I thought of white arms, and then immediately thought of naked body, this and that, all with a rich imagination.

　　Not only are there no updates today, but the number of words is also short. Let’s make up for it tomorrow. Alas, I hope nothing will happen again tomorrow.
