I Became an Anonymous Boss

The girl turned her head slowly, and then a simple knot was tied on the long hair, which was tied at the end of the long hair.

Bai Taki's movements were fast and his technique was very skillful, Xiuyu obediently remained motionless.

"Okay." Bai Taki said lightly: "From now on, I will give you the comb, and you can remember all the ways to tie your hair. Next time, you can tie your hair yourself. You can tie it however you want, don't worry about it." What do others think?"

Holding the comb, Xiuyu opened her mouth for the first time, but forgot that she couldn't speak.

She lowered her head slowly, lowered her face, pursed her lips, and everyone could see her downcast expression.

Shirataki didn't want to help her tie her hair anymore, it was a kind of veiled refusal.

She thought so, and everyone else thought so too, Zhan Huwei suddenly felt that the pastries were not delicious, and angrily pushed the pastries to Lan Xiangxue.

The seventh prince showed a strange smile, and he tapped the center of his eyebrows with his fan, as if he had guessed something, so he asked one last question before getting into the car.

"About what we were talking about, Guardian..."

"Okay." Shirataki gave a straightforward answer, standing in the afterglow of the setting sun, calmly but resolutely replied: "I will."

This answer was so crisp, straightforward, and decisive that no one expected it.

Xiuyu suddenly raised her eyes, and the eye sockets were dyed with a layer of magnificent red glow. The beautiful eyes were brightly imprinted with the glow of the sun, like pearls covered with dust. liven up,

Lan Xiangxue's arms were empty, and the pastry she had just secured was taken back again, showing her contented pastry.

Yazi smiled, bent over laughing, patted the driver with a mask on his face, and said calmly, "Let's go."

The vehicle went away, Shirataki looked back and stretched.

"Young Master." Yan Qixia said softly, "Do you know what you just said?"

"Offending Fomalhaut, offending King Zhenbei, and possibly getting involved in the struggle for imperial power." Bai Taki said, "I understand very well."

"..." Yan Qixia was silent.

"The position of Taoist protector means detachment, but also danger. For the imperial power, this group of people will do anything, even killing me is not impossible, but the risk is nothing." Bai Taki said indifferently: " Although Yazi used me, his starting point was not for himself, but for embroidered jade. The civil servants and military generals in the court only wanted to turn her into a political bargaining chip. The only person who can help her at this time is myself. If I pull my hand away, don't say that I look down on myself, will you look up to me?"

Yan Qixia sighed with a headache: "Oh..."

"Are you worried that I'm not strong enough? That adopted son of Fomalhaut, what is his name? I don't know how strong he is, but he shouldn't be better than me. There are still two days left. It may not be too late to hold Buddha's feet temporarily. There is nothing to worry about. I'm worried." Bai Taki said to himself, "Have you, Mr. Bai, ever lied to you?"

"My lord!" Yan Qixia gritted her teeth and said in a hateful voice, "You really don't understand anything!"

She stomped her feet angrily, complaining that the wooden man didn't understand the woman's exquisite heart at all.

She would care about offending Fomalhaut and not offending Fomalhaut, what would she think that the young master lost to that?

What she cares about is the identity of the Taoist protector, and what she cares about is the possibility of Zhen Guo's princess son-in-law. This means that Xiuyu has become the biggest competitor, and there are already enough, but it can be increased, but the person involved did not expect it at all. In this regard, it is really annoying, and it makes people feel angry.

She was very upset and turned her head back to read.

"Did I say something wrong?" Bai Taki looked at Lan Xiangxue in confusion.

The assassin girl lowered her head and said, "Young Master, have you thought about what to do after you become a guardian?"

"Ah? What can I do, just... just continue living." Bai Taki scratched his head, "What else?"

"I'm going to practice swords." Lan Xiangxue resigned, she said to herself in her heart: "Maybe I can be a princess of the country when I reach the Heavenly King Realm..."

Bai Taki looked at Xiao Taohong, the maid Taohong puffed her cheeks, she wanted to get angry, she hesitated to speak, she was very cute.

"I didn't mean to ask you..."

"My lord asks me, but I won't tell you." Tao Hong took out a letter from her bosom: "Don't worry about the other side, you should read this letter, lord."

"Letter?" Bai Taki took the letter and wrote 'Beiming Qingqiu' on the cover.

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

On the car seat, Xiuyu was holding a wooden comb, her eyes were bright, as if she was holding a rare treasure.

That spirit and liveliness came back again, she smiled lightly, bright and endearing.

Guard Zhan licked the pastry sugar on her fingertips. It was the first time she saw Xiuyu so happy, because Xiuyu was always taciturn, born unable to speak, and had a serious tendency to be autistic. Its status is noble, so naturally not everyone is qualified to approach it, and those who can approach it will not have the heart to try to figure out the thoughts of the princess of the Fanyue Valley Town, and only weirdos will attract each other.

Zhan Zhao and Xiuyu have known each other for less than five years, but even she can see Xiuyu's happy expression at this time, the smile is so bright and lovely, like a summer flower.

Yazi stroked Xiuyu's hair: "I really should go to celebrate tonight, I never thought it would be so straightforward."

Xiuyu looked over - he is a good man.

"A good guy? It's not accurate, but he is undoubtedly excellent, otherwise I wouldn't recommend him to be your guardian."

Xiuyu nodded lightly - I am very satisfied.

The Seventh Prince smiled: "It's good to be satisfied, I can't find a more suitable person, I can't trust anyone else, but he is different."

The guard Zhan held his chin: "Why is Your Highness sure that he must be suitable?"

The Seventh Prince said softly: "Because it is rare to have a confidant in life, I have learned a lot through him, and what I know, Xiuyu also knows, so I think there is no communication barrier between them."

Zhan Zhao didn't quite understand.

Yazi smiled and asked: "Xiuyu usually doesn't like to talk, and she rarely even uses the skill of expressing her true energy, but she and I can still communicate casually, why do you think?"

Zhan Zhao thought for a while, "Because she's too familiar, you can tell just by looking at her face, what is she trying to say?"

Yazi nodded and said: "Xiuyu and I are relatives, we grew up together, so looking at her expression, even if there is no change in her expression, I can guess what she is thinking, because I can do it, so I think he can do it too."

Zhan Zhao was taken aback, "Isn't this a little unreasonable?"

"But in fact, he can really read and understand what Xiuyu is thinking." Zhao Ziya said, "For this alone, no one else can compare to him. Xiuyu chooses Taoist guardians not by qualifications, but by fate. If you don't even understand what she means, what qualifications do you have to be a guardian?"

...Even if she doesn't say a word, she can communicate with her eyes and understand it at a glance. This is more important to her than qualifications, status, and rights.

...In the outside world where there is no communication partner, Shirataki has become her only dependent object, and she will see the world through Shirataki's window.

...What she sees and hears will be Shirataki's thoughts and thoughts, which are exactly in line with the principles I taught her in the past.

...The difference is that I just mentioned it with my mouth, but he will practice it with practical actions.

... Because of this, Xiuyu will definitely fall in love with him.

Yazi already knew it well when he sent Xiuyu away, and it was precisely because of this judgment that he let Xiuyu go to Jinling.

It's just that he didn't expect that Shirataki's own translation software was so useful that he could go to work directly without any debugging.

Because there are no communication barriers and stumbling blocks, Xiuyu doesn't need to secretly examine Baitaki from the very beginning. If she has any doubts, she can directly ask them, and she is always close at hand. This makes the exchanges between them unexpectedly frequent. .

Shirataki doesn't defend against little girls, and saying it's a lolicon isn't an insult. Because he doesn't defend himself, his emotions will heat up quickly. Xiuyu doesn't want to be treated like a little girl but still shows Baiyi Baishun's attitude shows her thoughts.

Zhao Ziya laughed it off, and it is better not to say some things too clearly, so as not to make people unhappy.

Although he was a secret pusher, he couldn't create such a result, he just sped up the process and clicked the fast forward button.

Only when Xiuyu is willing, will she be so happy; and only when Bai Taki agrees in his heart, will he take over the duty of guardian.

What he gave was only an opportunity, not a result.

"But I still don't understand." Yumao said strangely: "Why did you give Xiuyu the comb, but agreed to be a guardian? Isn't that a rejection?"

"No." Yazi shook his head, and he showed a strange smile: "This is a kind of, how should I put it... a kind of misunderstanding."

"Misread?"

"He is different from us. He has a different way of looking at the world and people. Shirataki especially hates 'objectifying' a person. Objectification is his vocabulary. Just listen to the superficial meaning for now. .”

Yazi leaned on the car seat, looked at the lights on both sides of the street, and said slowly: "He believes that all people are born free and equal. Although there are injustices, eradicating injustices is what a society should be like. There are clothes to wear, everyone can practice kung fu, everyone can live and work in peace and contentment, the orphans are taken care of, the sick are healed, and the elderly are supported, this is his philosophy."

Zhan Zhao tilted his head: "Sounds good."

"That's just the simple part I said, and there's also the outrageous part." The Seventh Prince continued, "If everyone was equal, then the emperor wouldn't need it, and neither would the rich and powerful. no longer exists."

Zhan Wei frowned. The education she received was that the imperial power was bestowed by heaven, she learned the arts and martial arts, and the imperial family...she could not escape the constraints of past values.

"It's natural that you don't understand, because it's very complicated to say. In fact, everyone is arrogant, so arrogant that they don't treat people as human beings." Yazi said softly: "The emperor replaces the herdsmen. Treat the people as human beings, whether they are civil servants or military generals, what they eat is the rice grown by the farmers, and what they taste is the delicacies prepared by the chefs. Caring is similar to how farmers take care of rice, it cannot be said to be inattentive, it can only be said to be condescending, except that they do not treat each other as human beings."

Zhan Huwei opened his mouth, but couldn't answer. She suddenly felt that the meaning revealed in these few short sentences was like a sharp sword, pointing at the most stubborn and ignorant part of her heart, feeling like being pinched. of suffocation.

Yes, that is the source of the contradiction.

"It's normal that you can't figure it out, or don't understand it. Those civil servants have read books all their lives, cultivated the realm of knowing the destiny, and their righteousness turned into a long river hanging above the nine heavens, but even they didn't understand. Stuck between 'clean and honest' and 'corrupt officials', obviously the root cause of the problem is not here."

The Seventh Prince said softly: "It's not your fault, nor their fault. It can only be said that there is a problem with the nature of the social structure, and there are problems with the fundamentals of education and ideology. No one thinks there is a problem. The emperor is, the rich and powerful The class is, even the people of the Li people, the people at the bottom are a group of grassroots, very lowly, and the weather changes at will, or the government orders issued by the civil officials above can make them bankrupt and poor."

Zhan Zhao rubbed his eyebrows: "I really don't understand..."

"It's okay if you don't understand, I'll just briefly explain why he thinks so." Yazi said, "What you want to ask is why Bai Taki returned the comb to Xiuyu, and I answered that because he hates it." The concept of materialization', he believes that everyone has the qualifications to pursue themselves, and they don't have to be anyone's vassals. Even women can continue to show their faces after they get married, and women can also run academies and fight on the battlefield, so embroidered jade is the same .”

Zhao Ziya said softly: "He thought that Xiuyu was trapped by the identity of Zhen Guo's princess, so he gave her the comb and told her that she could comb her hair by herself in the future, and she could comb it however she wanted...Because he decided to become a guardian, she would Now that she is free, no one will continue to restrain her."

Zhan Zhao wondered, "Is it because of this reason?"

"Yeah, it's because of this reason." Yazi said, "He just thinks too much, as always...an enterprise-level understanding that thinks too much."

"Has he never thought about the relationship between the guardian and the son-in-law?"

"Probably he didn't think about it. He just didn't like embroidered jade becoming a political bargaining chip." Zhao Ziya said.

"Could it be that he pretended on purpose?" Zhan Zhao didn't believe it: "Most people think, 'If I become a protector, I will become a son-in-law. I have earned a wife for nothing, and I can also get the unparalleled power in the world'. No matter how you say it, it’s a sure-fire deal.”

"It's precisely because he doesn't think so, that's why he looks special." Yazi showed a weird smile, and his tone was satisfied and a bit regretful: "He doesn't care about power and wealth, and he has clearly said that what he said These are at least impossible in today's era, they belong to South Orange and North Trifoliate, and are restricted by the times, so they cannot be achieved."

Zhan Zhao complained, "He understands, but doesn't agree?"

"He doesn't want to agree, but subconsciously uses his own values ​​to figure out other people, but whether it's me or Xiuyu, we are all from Daqin, and unlike him, we can only think in our own way." Xue The young man said.

Bai Taki thinks that what Xiuyu needs is freedom, but what Xiuyu may not necessarily need is this, she has long been used to being restrained, and getting freedom is limited freedom, just like a canary in a cage will not live long if it flies out of the cage.

What Xiuyu needs is a confidant, a guardian, someone who can love her for the rest of her life.

So what she lacks is not freedom, but a constraint, a promise.

Shirataki gave her a promise, but said he would give her freedom, which seemed contradictory.

Only a modern person with an EQ of [-] would make this kind of mistake. It's like... a fiancée who is telling the matchmaker that he doesn't want it, but wants to drag his fiancée to talk about free love, and say that we break up if you are not satisfied.

In the eyes of the ancients, this is a silly criticism. Marriage is marriage, and love may not be necessary. Isn't it good to pay for the ticket after getting on the bus.

In the eyes of modern people, this is called falling in love before getting married, getting to know each other before getting married, stable love, a happy marriage for a hundred years, and no harm at all.

In fact, no one is wrong. In ancient times, people who married chickens followed chickens and dogs followed dogs. Unless the husband died, it was almost impossible to remarry. Lang' and the like, the marriage relationship is fixed from the very beginning.

This misplaced understanding will inevitably lead to differences in values.

Zhan Zhao said in a low voice, "If he becomes a guardian, what will he do next? He might not be happy to be a son-in-law."
