Fish swimming around the world

He spoke eloquently, Jiang Fan just listened with a smile and did not comment, while Lin Zhaoji's expression changed from shocked to more complicated.

The man in front of her was shrouded in fog, and she felt like she could no longer understand him.

Looking back, all my dissatisfaction, hostility and resentment towards him were so childish and stupid. Like a little quail in the reeds, it is inferring and evaluating the goshawk in the sky through those few gaps. But probably at that time, the Nine-Sky Eagle didn't even think about what his quail was thinking, and didn't even care about the existence of such a quail...

After Mr. Bai Shi sighed with emotion, Jiang Fan still shook his head and chuckled: "You know what you are most afraid of in the world? What are you most afraid of is your imagination, haha..."

He smiled easily and spoke casually, but at this moment, Lin Zhaoji no longer believed that he did it unintentionally.

Thinking about this alliance from beginning to end, it almost seemed like a natural progression. As a secretary, she worked hard for a long time, and finally got a little idea of ​​what an amazing layout this was from King Jin and Duke Baishi.

From then on, she began to pay more and more attention to this person, finding all the information she could find about him, and researching him day and night. But the more she studied, the thicker the fog around this person became. In the end, his appearance was almost unknown. In a trance in my mind.

Looking at the calm young man in front of her, she suddenly felt a throbbing feeling in her heart. She seemed to vaguely understand why all those strange women fell in love with her and all those strange men regarded her as a monster...

If you can help such a person, you may be lucky...

She couldn't help but think.

Just when she was lost in thought, she was touched by Bai Shigong's elbow, and she came to her senses instantly, only to realize that Jiang Fan was greeting her.

"Miss Lin, we meet again. How will everything be after we return?"

Lin Zhaoji opened her mouth, but no words came out for a while. It took a while before my mind returned to normal.

"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. Zhaoji is here this time. Apart from official business, I would like to express her gratitude to Your Majesty."

Jiang Fan seemed a little surprised, Lin Zhaoji seemed to have changed a lot.

Bai Shigong looked at the two of them and said with a smile: "After Miss Lin returned, she mobilized the talented girls of the Jin State to form a women's alliance and campaigned for the country in the literary world. The king liked her very much. He once wanted to make her a princess. However, Miss Lin I don’t seek fame and fortune, but I have been rejected three times. This time, the king and the head of the Nangong family have invited me to come to Qin.”

Lin Zhaoji said lightly: "Thank you for your great love from the king, but as a woman, Zhaoji's abilities are limited. She only wants to do something within her ability. The overall situation of the world has its own strategies for heroes. Zhaoji really dare not act rashly." Beak."

hehe? Jiang Fan was even more surprised. This was not something the very self-righteous Lin Zhaoji could say. Could it be that she had really changed a lot?

"Miss Lin is humble. No matter how big or small, everything should be done by someone. Although the king manages the world, how can it be done without farmers to cultivate the country? How can a general conquer the country without small soldiers to shed blood? There is no dignity in people, and there is no dignity in things. Seriously For this, everyone can be a saint.”

Lin Zhaoji looked dumbfounded. It was the first time she heard this theory. It compares the people at the bottom with the princes and nobles. Only the things are different, but there is no career or inferiority. Everyone can be a sage.

Bai Shigong sighed: "The prince's thoughts are very different from those of the people in the world. When I came to Qin this time, I had already heard that ordinary people advocated equality and freedom. I didn't believe it at first. It wasn't until I entered the palace that I realized the difference here. It's just... I I think this situation is only for mortals."

Jiang Fan smiled: "Changing ideas is a long process. The National Master is right. Even if he is only partially free in the mortal world, Jiang has never thought of completely going against the times."

"Era..." Bai Shigong said meaningfully: "The prince has a big picture of the world in his mind, and it seems to have a historical spring and autumn."

Lin Zhaoji looked at him seriously: "What kind of era does the prince think is the best era?"

Jiang Fan smiled: "There is no such thing as the best era. I only know one sentence, this is the best era and the worst era..."

While talking, thirty-six dishes were prepared.

Mr. Baishi brushed his beard and smiled: "It's actually Taibai who is banqueting in the thirty-sixth place. I have a good meal today."

"The Imperial Master has good taste, has he tasted it before?" Jiang Fan said while pouring the wine.

Mr. Bai Shi looked at the table: "It all happened five years ago. I was looking for the wine fairy in white clothes but didn't meet him. I was gifted this table by the owner of the restaurant that week. Even now, when I think about it, I still feel that it is the most delicious dish in the world."

Jiang Fan was slightly startled: "Do you know the Master and the Wine Master?"

Bai Shigong shook his head: "No, it's just that I miss my mentor Wenren Zhongda, and I specifically want to find him..."

"What did you say?" Jiang Fan paused and put down the wine bottle.

"Mentor? Wenren Zhongda?"

Bai Shigong was stunned for a moment, nodded and said: "Your Majesty, is it strange? You are the third disciple of Wenren Grand Master, but speaking of it, I haven't seen my mentor for decades."

Jiang Fan was surprised and said quickly: "I wonder if the Imperial Master has ever practiced ancient writing?"

Bai Shigong shook his head: "I followed the Grand Master to practice the way of governing the country. The ancient writing was my teacher's personal preference and was not taught to me as a coursework."

Jiang Fan was a little disappointed for a moment, but thinking about it, even if he learned it, he couldn't show him that thing.

However, it is still surprising that Bai Shigong of Jin State was actually born in the sect of Wenren Taishi. No wonder he has certain connections in Taiyue.

Thinking of this, he slowly calmed down: "Does the Imperial Master know where the Grand Master is now?"

Bai Shigong still shook his head: "My master left the imperial court in despair. He has visited many places in the past decades."

These are consistent with what Wenren Fengliu said. It seems that he can't find any clues here.

"But..." Bai Shigong suddenly pondered and said: "This time I went to find Master Wenren because I heard from my second senior brother that the master seemed to be going to Cangling..."

Jiang Fan was stunned: "Old Man Cangling?"

Bai Shigong nodded: "Second senior brother received a letter from the master, saying that he might go next year..."

"Stop, wait a minute." Jiang Fan interrupted hurriedly, with an unbelievable look on his face: "Why do you mean... Old Man Cangling is the second senior brother?"

Bai Shigong glanced at him: "That's it, what's so strange? Among my fellow brothers, only the second senior brother likes ancient books and has received some teachings from the master in this regard."

Fuck! Jiang Fan finally understood why the old man Cangling knew some ancient seal characters. It turned out that he was the apprentice of Master Wenren! This old guy didn't reveal a word.

Going to Cangling next year? Very good, I have to keep an eye on it.

Bai Shigong looked at him inexplicably: "Your Highness seems to be very interested in my master?"

Jiang Fan immediately waved his hand: "Of course, that is Master Wenren, known as the White Jade Pillar of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Everyone in the world respects him. Especially since I like literature, I am quite fascinated by Master Wenren's attainments in ancient characters."

What he said was direct and straightforward, which dispelled the doubts that had just arisen in Bai Shigong.
