Wei Jing was stunned for a moment, then repeated what Sima Sect Master had just said, and murmured: "Why should I go against Tianji Pavilion?"
After a moment of regaining consciousness, he continued: "Tianji Pavilion and the imperial court used the name of "The Return of Ten Thousand Warriors" to cause countless disputes in the martial arts world, resulting in countless casualties in various sects and factions, regardless of whether they were members of the Sima family. Members, or me personally, I can’t just sit back and watch.”
Sect Master Sima said: "That's true, but how can Li'er be sure that Ji Cangran is causing trouble in the martial arts world?"
Wei Jing asked: "Is there any doubt that I have missed?"
Sect Leader Sima shook his head and said: "No, I just want to say that maybe in Ji Cangran's eyes, he did not do "The Return of Ten Thousand Warriors" to bring chaos to the world."
Wei Jing couldn't react for a moment and asked, "How could that happen?"
Sect Master Sima continued: "No matter how Tianji Pavilion organizes the "Ten Thousand Warriors Return to Hidden", or how it unites the imperial court, the Hidden Fish Garden, and the Yangxin Tower to create disputes in the rivers and lakes, these are what we see outside after all. Sometimes the situation cannot be delayed. We must make a decisive decision, but since we have this opportunity this time, we must also seize the opportunity and explore as much as possible what Ji Cangran is thinking. After understanding, we may change our minds, or we may not, but no matter what, we must take the leap This step.”
Sect Leader Sima paused for a moment, and then continued: "In the past, during the dispute between Fengyun Alliance and Zhengdao, only Daxia Li was the first to think of this and take action. Only then did he enter the enemy camp alone and meet with the number two figure of Fengyun Alliance. Things."
While Wei Jing and Sima Sect Leader were discussing the matter of Tianji Pavilion, Mei Fengjun and Yu Qin were also talking in the room. They were sitting on the edge of the bed, holding hands, as if they were good sisters of similar age, talking about girls. The sweet thoughts of home.
Mei Fengjun first asked how the two met. Yuqin then told how Wei Jing eavesdropped on her playing the piano on the roof, how Yuqin invited Wei Jing inside to talk, and later how Wei Jing learned that Yuqin was going to let Yangxinlou After buying it, he robbed her out of Nanjing and accompanied her in the world.
Mei Fengjun listened with great interest. First, Wei Jing's shyness when he was talking to Yu Qin in the Qingyan Tower made Mei Fengjun chuckle. Later, when Wei Jing got the news, his heart skipped a beat. When Yuqin picked her up, Mei Fengjun couldn't help but pat her thigh and praised: "That's pretty much it!"
When Yuqin finally reached a paragraph, Mei Fengjun murmured: "So you are a geisha from Qingyan Tower. No wonder you behave so dignified and thoughtfully, as if you are well-trained, and you are not like an ordinary woman."
When Yuqin heard her talk about her background, she unconsciously felt a little ashamed and said softly: "Yes, Yuqin has lived in Qingyan Building since she was a child. Later, when she got a little older, my boss asked me to learn talents and receive guests. Later, when she met the young master, Yuqin was able to leave Nanjing."
Mei Fengjun noticed that her expression was different and asked gently, "You still can't let go of those days?"
After hearing Mei Fengjun's question, Yuqin realized that even though she had left Qingyan Tower and traveled with Wei Jing for some time, she still had not completely let go of her identity as a "brothel geisha".
Yuqin nodded slightly and replied with a slight hesitation: "That's probably the case, right?"
Mei Fengjun gently held her hand and asked, "How was your life there in the past? Can you tell Aunt Mei something about it?"
Although it was the first time that Yuqin and Mei Fengjun met, seeing her straightforward and heroic spirit, not only Wei Jing valued her, but she also cared for him a lot, and unconsciously wanted to confide in her. When he noticed, he He has already opened his mouth and talked about his past life.
While Mei Fengjun was listening, he would talk to Yu Qin from time to time, either to comfort Yu Qin or to express some thoughts. When Yu Qin reached a certain point, Mei Fengjun asked, "Have you ever said these words to Li'er?"
Yuqin shook his head and said: "I have never said that the young master has always been kind and considerate. I think... he probably knew that I had a grudge, so he deliberately did not mention this matter, but..."
After Yuqin said this, she also realized that she was also worried about Wei Jing's mood, so she didn't ask him about the Baili family. The two of them were thinking about each other at the same time, but they could not tell each other about the past. , I don’t know if it’s good or bad?
Mei Fengjun answered: "If he doesn't ask, you don't know where to start, right?"
Yuqin just nodded slightly. Mei Fengjun asked again: "So, do you trust Li'er?"
Yuqin replied without hesitation: "Xin."
Although it is only one word, it contains a decisive meaning. Mei Fengjun said: "In that case, it makes no difference whether he speaks first or you speak first. If you really hope he can understand, then just say it."
Seeing that Yu Qin was still hesitant, Mei Fengjun smiled and said: "If you trust each other, what can't be discussed? Since your sect master and I have known each other, we have always spoken when we have something to say, scolded when we have complaints, and scolded when we have complaints. Just spread it."
Then he added: "However, that's also because we both have straightforward personalities."
Yuqin thought for a while and asked, "So is Aunt Mei really angry with the sect leader when she comes to Nanyang this time?"
Mei Fengjun smiled and said: "Actually, I have been married to him for more than forty years, how can I not know what his temperament is like? I am not really angry when I come to Nanyang this time, but I haven't seen him for two years. Back in Xuchang, he came and went again, and I was just looking for an excuse to find an opportunity to meet him and help him by the way."
Yuqin was slightly surprised and couldn't help but think to herself: "I didn't expect that Aunt Mei may seem to be fiery, but in fact she also has a delicate and tender side."
Mei Fengjun, as if he had read through her mind, continued: "Don't look at me like this. I used to have a really hot temper. You will know if you ask your sect master if you have the chance. But as I grow older, I have experienced things There are more, even for a person with my temperament, I gradually feel that many things are no longer as disgusting as before, and I don’t always have to yell to attract others’ attention. I have indeed become much calmer these years.”
Yuqin smiled and said: "In this case, didn't the sect leader receive a scolding in vain?"
Mei Fengjun narrowed his eyes slightly and said with some pride: "You are too underestimated by your sect leader. In fact, he has already understood my little thoughts. It's just that one is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer. When a husband and wife get along, Tao, isn’t that all?”
Yuqin pondered for a moment and then asked: "If the sect master takes it seriously, what should we do?"
Mei Fengjun showed a meaningful smile and said: "Remember, if you encounter trouble when getting along, just act coquettishly with him, and you will most likely be able to turn the trouble into good luck."
Yuqin hesitated and said: "Coquettishly?"
Mei Fengjun smiled and nodded at her. Yuqin thought for a moment, and then asked, "What if it's useless?"
Mei Fengjun looked into her eyes, reached out to hold her hand, and said seriously: "Then let's do it again!"
At this time, Wei Jing was talking about business with Sima Sect Master, and both of them had their own thoughts. After a while, Wei Jing thought of Mei Fengjun and asked: "Sect Master, Aunt Mei seems to be still angry with Sect Master. Does this matter require Li'er?" helper?"
Sect Master Sima was thinking about the Tianji Pavilion when he was suddenly asked about his wife by Wei Jing. He was slightly startled. After a moment, he came back to his senses and said, "Oh, Fengjun? I guess she is probably fine. Li'er doesn't need to worry too much."
Wei Jing was a little worried and asked: "If Aunt Mei is really angry, what should we do?"
Sect Master Sima stroked his beard and said, "Then I can only let her talk about it obediently. When her mood gradually stabilizes, I will wait for an opportunity to pick up a few words of innocuousness to talk to her, test my tone, and try to make progress."
After Sima Sect Master finished his answer, he thought for a moment and thought that Wei Jing was asking him about how men and women get along, and then added: "Remember, you must not answer back at this time."
Seeing that Wei Jing was a little puzzled, Sect Master Sima added: "From what I see, when it comes to a battle of words, a man can never win against a woman."
Wei Jing didn't understand why the sect master said this, so he asked casually: "How can you see it?"
Sect Master Sima looked into the distance and said calmly: "This is the golden rule and cannot be doubted."
The next day, the competition between the two sects continued as usual. In the morning, there was a boxing and kicking event without weapons. In the afternoon, an elder from Huashan and Diancang each spoke about Taoism and Buddhism respectively. The disciples of the two sects attended the lecture at the same time. Sima Sect Leader Ji Cangran and Ji Cangran were still sitting on the sidelines and participating in the whole process. Wei Jing, Yu Qin, Mei Fengjun and others were also observing from the outside.
