Shen Hao did not wait for the closing banquet of the book tasting conference. He left Wanjuanshu Mountain and returned to Fengri City on the afternoon of the third day.
Zhong Hongye and Xiang Liu gave him a ride when they parted, without saying anything. These two families will inevitably have to deal with Fenghong Villa, and Shen Hao will definitely have contact with both of them.
So there is a long way to go, and we will talk about the rest later, but now we have a good start.
While on the carriage, Shen Hao took out a copper bar and wrote down in detail what he had accomplished in the past few days on Wanjuanshu Mountain, and then handed it to Yang Yicheng, who was traveling with him.
"I'll ask Leader Yang to take this note back and give it to the owner of the village."
"Okay, Mr. Shen, don't worry."
Yang Yicheng bowed his hand. Although his attitude was the same as when he came, he felt a considerable sense of identification with the foreign affairs deacon of this villa. This Master Shen is indeed a capable person. Being a foreign affairs deacon definitely deserves the trust of the village owner.
Nodding, Shen Hao had no intention of talking to Yang Yicheng. He had a ruler in his mind, and he always felt that it was necessary to keep a certain distance from the sensitive place of Fenghong Villa.
It was already evening when he returned to Fengli City. Shen Hao went home directly, and the Golden Sword Guards from the Golden Sword Camp of Fenghong Villa who followed him all the way also turned around and returned to the imperial city after Shen Hao returned home, returning to the Villa to resume their duties.
Yang Yicheng reported the copper bar Shen Hao asked him to deliver to the owner's study.
Like most monks, Yang Xiu Sheng no longer needs sleep. On weekdays, he is either meditating or dealing with necessary matters in the villa. Although the duty officer of the Villa is responsible for handling trivial matters, there are not many things that can be handed over to him.
After hearing that Yang Yicheng had come back to ask for an audience, Yang Xiusheng came out of the secret room where he was practicing. He unfolded the copper strip, read it quickly, and nodded subconsciously.
"Tell me everything you saw and heard during your trip to Wanjuanshu Mountain."
"It's the owner of the village." Yang Yicheng bowed and said, "This time I followed Mr. Shen all the way without leaving even half a step. Mr. Shen didn't do anything out of the ordinary when going up the mountain..."
Personal bodyguards can also be used as personal surveillance. Participating in an occasion like the Book Tasting Conference, there are things that can be considered in every aspect. Not only Shen Hao himself, but also the attitude of those sect members towards Shen Hao can also be used to ponder.
Yang Xiu Sheng listened very carefully, and Yang Yicheng didn't miss anything.
"Reading a book? What book are you reading?" Yang Xiu Sheng stopped Yang Yicheng's words unexpectedly. He did not expect that Shen Hao would run to read a book after arriving at Ten Thousand Volumes of Books. Could it be that he covets the cultivation classics in the Ten Thousand Volumes of Books? Is that something visible to outsiders?
"I was reading various travel notes and essays and classics. I seemed to be looking for something. Later, after the banquet, I went back to the library and met Xuan Tianqing, the fifth elder of Wanjuanshu Mountain. He gave Master Shen a book called "Special Place" The library where Mr. Shen sat down and read the books before leaving, and he never went there again in the next two days."
"Xuan Tianqing? Did you give him a book?" Yang Xiu Sheng felt strange after hearing this. He waved his hand for Yang Yicheng to continue speaking.
After that, Yang Yicheng finished talking about Shen Hao's arguments about cultivating the mind in the conference room and the final result of separate handling of "investigation" and "punishment".
Basically there is no difference from what is written on the copper strip. Yang Xiu Sheng waved Yang Yicheng to retreat.
After closing the door, Yang Xiu Sheng stood up from the chair and walked to the window, with mixed thoughts in his mind. Things went more smoothly than he expected. As expected, Wanjuan Shushan and Mingshan Sect could not resist the temptation to interfere in the internal affairs of each sect. Knowing that Fenghong Villa's move might disrupt the peace of the sect, they still chose to take risks.
In this regard, Shen Hao's vision is indeed sharp, and he has a thorough understanding of the thoughts of Wanjuan Shushan and Mingshan Sect. In the future, he will be slowly induced, and he will always be able to pry open the iron plate that has been standing in front of Jingjiu Dynasty for many years.
Of course, Yang Xiusheng is not in a hurry. He is very satisfied with the current beginning and is also very satisfied that Shen Hao, a smart and capable person, can be used as a knife in his hand.
As for those people in Fenghong Villa who want to live their lives, to be honest, Yang Xiusheng doesn't care too much. As long as the two ancestors are in charge of the villa, and the Golden Sword Camp is in hand, others... it is not impossible to give up when it is time to give up.
Just like planting a tree, there will always be times when the branches and leaves need to be pruned. The owner of the previous generation of villa had reminded Yang Xiu Sheng of this point. He doesn't mind trimming something while he's at the helm.
Targeting the sect and taking back the resources that belonged to the Jing Dynasty from the sect was not only Yang Xiu Sheng's long-cherished wish, but also an attempt he started with the consent of Emperor Shu.
I really like Emperor Shu's experience, which gave Emperor Shu a different character and temper from previous emperors. I know better how to "pay carefully" instead of feeling that my family has a big business and is leaking things everywhere.
It was Shen Hao who interested Yang Xiusheng very much. There is no doubt about this person's talent and ability. But his behavior is often unexpected, and there is always a sense of escape from control. The emperor said that this kid was a single-edged sword, but Yang Xiu Sheng sometimes felt that maybe it was double-edged. It depends on how it is used.
From Yang Yicheng's narration just now, it can be seen that Shen Hao has a clear view of his position in the world, and he enjoys it without any yearning for the sect. . This is good, at least you don’t have to worry about counterfeiting for the time being.
But this man's curiosity was too strong.
Yang Xiu Sheng hadn't remembered it when he just listened to Yang Yizheng's speech. Now that he recalled it in his mind, he remembered that "Special Place" written by Xuan Tianqing to Shen Hao. He had actually read it a long time ago, and even Fenghong There is actually a copy of the rubbings kept in the villa.
There is a lot of content in "Special Places", but it is not necessarily true that it is mainly about strange places. It is actually more appropriate to think of it as a historical documentary that takes a special place as its time context.
"That kid seems to be looking for the missing period of time and wants to know what happened. Haha." Yang Xiu Sheng laughed unconsciously when he thought of this.
Smart people are smart people after all. It's not that difficult to detect a missing piece of history, but it's not that simple to actually figure it out. In other words, there are only a handful of people in the world who really know the truth about that period of history, and there is no way to see it just by looking at the recorded documents.
Yang Xiu Sheng believed that a smart and current person like Shen Hao would know how to advance and retreat, and he would just need to tap his curiosity when the time came. The thing worth pondering is actually Xuan Tianqing. Why did this person jump out and write a letter to Shen Hao?
After looking at the moonlight outside the window for a while, Yang Xiu Sheng sat back on the chair and took out a blank copper strip. He wanted to give Shen Hao an order, which should be more detailed in matters related to the foreign affairs of Fenghong Villa. .....
Now that we have reached a consensus with the sect, it is time to add fuel to the fire, at least let Wanjuan Shushan and Mingshan Sect have a taste of the sweetness of controlling the internal affairs of other sects, right?
