When Su Shi raised this question, there was suddenly no sound on the other side of the wall. Su Shi was not in a hurry and drank tea slowly while waiting for the answer.
"Before I answer your question, Mr. Su, can you answer me a question?"
After a long time, the deep voice sounded again.
"No problem." Although he knew that the other party could not see his expression, Su Shi still smiled and said, "I also hope that the deacon can see my sincerity, so if you have any questions, just ask."
The other party didn't expect Su Shi to be so open-minded. He seemed slightly startled, with a hint of admiration in his tone.
"Master Su is upright and upright, and many people in the world are not as good as him."
"I can't say that I am aboveboard." Su Shi said, "I only know that if a person wants to hear the truth, the best way is to tell the truth himself."
"Young Master Su is right. This is indeed the best way and the only way." The deacon said slowly: "Young Master Su has been investigating Master Pei for so long, so he must know something about Master Pei. I would like to ask Is Mr. Su as capable of understanding the secrets of heaven as Master Pei?"
Without Qin Nan's reminder, Su Shi would have naturally accepted it, but now he knew that although Pei Xun had not seen through his identity, he also knew that Su Shi's situation was different from his own.
Su Shi smiled slightly and said, "This is exactly what I want to know. How did Mr. Pei understand the secrets of heaven? Is he the same as Prince Zhou Xuan?"
The other party sighed slightly: "Prince Zhou Xuan just peeked into the secret of heaven, how can he compare with Master Pei."
"I wonder what the deacon means by this?"
The deacon said slowly: "Master Su seems to have not answered my question yet."
Su Shi shook his head and sighed: "I'm afraid my answer will disappoint the deacon. There may be similarities between my situation and Mr. Pei's, but there are more differences."
The deacon immediately asked: "What are the similarities and what are the differences?"
Su Shi pondered: "The similarity is that Mr. Pei and I are like Zhuang Zhou's dream butterfly. We both lived in another world in our dreams. The difference is that the world we live in is different."
As soon as he said this, the deacon remained silent again. After a while, he sighed: "Master Su is really honest and did not lie to me with falsehoods."
Su Shi was a little curious and couldn't help but ask, "Why is the deacon so sure that I didn't lie?"
The deacon smiled and said: "Master Pei searched through history books but could not find the poems written by the young master, and the young master did not recognize the words embroidered by Hui Niang, so Master Pei's judgment is consistent with the young master."
Su Shi immediately said: "Mr. Pei has read through the history books? Presumably this history book must not be an existing history book, but a history book from a thousand years later."
"The history books translated by Master Pei come from fifteen hundred years later."
"Fifteen hundred years?" Su Shi sighed with emotion: "Mr. Pei's dream has spanned a thousand years. Fifteen hundred years of history can be seen at a glance. No wonder he is like a god from this world."
However, the deacon couldn't help but sigh: "Even if a thousand years of history can be seen before Master Pei's eyes, Master Pei said that he is also a person in the cause and effect, so he cannot change his fate."
Although separated by a wall, Su Shi seemed to feel a pair of eyes looking at him. He thought about it and asked, "What fate does Mr. Pei want to change?"
"Share the destiny of the common people."
Although this answer was not what Su Shi expected, he was still very puzzled: "The people of Daqian can be considered to be living in a prosperous age now. Are Mr. Pei worried about things in vain?"
"It prospered but then declined, and disaster was coming to Daqian. How could the people of Daqian be spared?"
Su Shi's expression suddenly became stern and his tone became a little cold.
"Isn't the chaos in Daqian caused by Mr. Pei? If he didn't murder the prince, how could Daqian be in such a situation with the prince's virtuousness?"
The deacon suddenly asked, "Do you really think there is nothing wrong with the prince's governance?"
Su Shi immediately became speechless and silently picked up the teacup. Although the tea was cold, Su Shi didn't realize it. After taking a few sips, he slowly placed it on the teacup.
"Even if Pei Xun does not agree with the prince's strategy of governing the country, he can still assist him in the court. I believe that with Pei Xun's ability and thousands of years of experience, he should be able to govern the country with ease, and it is not a problem to become a prince or prime minister. In this way He didn't do the good thing that killed two birds with one stone, so why did he choose to murder the prince?"
"You must not say that he has sworn hatred with the Daqian royal family, so he is unwilling to serve as an official in the court. He has experienced the magical world in his dream, and after waking up from the dream, he can be regarded as a human being in two lives. In addition, he has read all The history books are more concerned about the common people. Is it true that he can’t let go of the grievances in his heart?”
Facing Su Shi's aggressive questioning, the deacon said calmly: "If Master Pei really wants to go against Dagan because he can't let go of his grudges, how can we, as Dagan's citizens, follow him?"
"Then deacon, can you explain to me why Pei Xuan did this?"
There was a long silence on the other side of the wall, and Su Shi drank tea quietly without urging.
"Besides this question, does Mr. Su have any other questions to ask?" After a long silence, the deacon's voice sounded again.
Su Shi couldn't help but nodded: "Yes."
"I wonder if you have any other questions, sir?"
"Did Bai Jingchao really die under his design? Was Cui Peng's death really an accident? What is the will of God that Mr. Pei said?"
The deacon never expected that Su Shi would ask such a question. After a long time, he slowly said, "Why does Mr. Su have such a question?"
Su Shi immediately said: "Based on Pei Xun's design, the chance of Bai Jingchao being struck by lightning is extremely slim. Cui Peng's death is too much of a coincidence, and Pei Xun has always attributed their deaths to God's will."
Having said this, Su Shi smiled: "But I don't believe this statement."
"Master Su, don't you believe in God's will?"
Su Shi said seriously: "I believe in God's will, but as the saying goes, God's will is unpredictable, so I don't believe that a person can kill people by relying on God's will."
"Master Su knows that God's will is unpredictable. Haven't you heard that God's will is hard to disobey?"
Su Shi said calmly: "Please help me explain, deacon."
The deep voice said slowly: "When Master Pei first woke up from his dream, he found that he had a magical ability."
Su Shi immediately asked, "What ability?"
"The ability to see through a person's destiny."
Su Shi was stunned, and suddenly felt very absurd. He couldn't help but laugh: "The ability to see through a person's fate? Pei Xun seems to have a surname of Pei, not Liu, and he doesn't seem to be that big."
The deacon naturally didn't understand what he meant, but just said: "This is absolutely true. Master Pei can indeed see through a person's fate, and when he intervenes in that person's fate, he can also change that person's fate. "
The more Su Shi listened, the more absurd he felt: "In that case, isn't Pei Xuan a god? Then for him, isn't everything in this world under his control?"
At this time, the deacon said slowly: "Pei Xun can indeed change the fate of ordinary people, but even Master Pei can't do anything about the people whose names are left in the history books."
