Wu Sheng could see Ziyu's weakness from the look on his face when he asked the question, so he answered more seriously: "I am the one who brought you and Luo Fengxing to a standstill, and you and Luo Fengxing must not bear the infamy for this. "
Ziyu said: "It's just a bad name, nothing worth mentioning."
Wu Sheng ignored his words and continued: "Besides, I have had enough of running away in the past twenty years, and I don't want to run away anymore. If you don't give me this opportunity, I will leave Linzi and go south to Chu and Wu. I will Choose one of the places between Yingdu or Gusu to establish a new academy. Please believe in me, and many people will follow me."
Ziyu asked: "Who are the many people you mentioned?"
Wu Sheng said: "The Great Alchemist will go with me, Donglizi will go with me, and the four Zhenshan envoys will go with me - because I will give them the right to participate in the enshrined affairs. Maybe Lu Tong will go with me, Of course I can't guarantee it, but I will definitely try for it, and I believe the chance is great. I almost forgot, there is Jiang Ying, maybe she will also be on my side, because she and you have never been on the same side, If you don't support me, she will support me. In addition, I can take away no less than thirty-six deacons from the Academy. There are more than one hundred and thirty people walking in the world, and at least one-third will follow. I'm leaving. In addition, Wang Tianshi may also come to my place to become a bachelor. Even if he doesn't come, he will never side with Linzi. I can guarantee you this."
There was silence in front of the thatched cottage for a long time. Neither of them spoke. It was not until the bonfire was about to go out and Wu Sheng added more firewood that Ziyu finally said: "This fourth report is inappropriate. Doing so will make Changhong and I miserable." If he becomes an enemy, he will most likely kill Gong Ye and take a share of it on my head."
Wu Sheng shook his head and said: "Da Fengxing, when you agreed to me being a good person, you actually became Chang Hong's enemy. You must choose one between me and him. You cannot escape this."
Ziyu was making his final struggle: "Linzi has Huzi, Yutianshi, Jianzong and Xinshi. You can't win with Sangtian Wu alone. Even if you add Wang Tianshi, two to four, you can't win."
Wu Sheng smiled: "Da Fengxing, you are wrong in two places. First, I do not pursue victory, I just want not to lose; second, you have understood it just now, do you still want me to ask you again?" Confirm once? It’s not two to four, it’s three to four.”
…
After leaving Wushan, Wu Sheng returned all the way, first to Yingdu and met Xue Zhong at the Yingdu Academy.
Nowadays, the "dispute between the two schools of worship" has become an almost open secret. The hinterland of the Central Plains and the vast south of Chu, Wu and Yue are discussing the matter openly and secretly. Seeing Wu Sheng's arrival, Xue Zhong was very happy: "What about the practice of the school?" Are you here? I was just wondering if I should pay a visit to the Academy."
Wu Sheng patted him on the shoulder and said: "Brother Xue, don't joke with me. You are not visiting me, but you and I have indeed seen each other less in the past two years than before. We should move around more. This is not the case. What I just said I went to check on Ziyu Da Fengxing’s injury and came to see you.”
Xue Zhong smiled and said: "Then I have to fulfill my friendship as a landlord. You can listen to my arrangements tonight and you are not allowed to refuse. Although Yingdu does not have as many interesting places as Yangzhou, it is the capital of Chu State and has its own prosperity! Yes! Okay, how about Ziyu’s great practice?”
Wu Sheng said: "He was seriously injured, but after Donglizi pledged his allegiance to the academy, he contributed the elixir passed down by his master. Didn't I make a special trip to give him the elixir? This elixir will probably be gone in less than ten months." has recovered."
Xue Zhong was overjoyed: "Ziyu is always thorough in his work, and he pays special attention to his own people. As long as he comes out of the mountain, let's see how Changhong can compete with you!"
Wu Sheng sighed and said: "It's a pity for the eldest son. I don't want to embarrass him, but he just can't get around this corner, and there's nothing I can do about it."
That night, the two had a drink. During the banquet, Chu girls danced "Jingyu" and sang "Cai Ling". Their long sleeves and slim waist made people feel very excited. They couldn't help but stay in the dormitory of Yingdu School. Get drunk.
The next day, someone from the Fei family came and sent a message, inviting Sun Wu to come to the house for a banquet. Sun Wu was the leader of the academy. At this level, the king of a small country must come out to host a banquet and ask about the purpose of his visit. King of a big country will also come forward sometimes. Invitation, even if they don't come forward, at least important ministers at the ruling level will come forward to invite them. Just like when Wu Sheng first went to Suzhou, he received an invitation from Fugai, the prince of Wu State, who was acting on his behalf.
If it was someone else's invitation, Wu Sheng might consider it. After all, he was based in the Chu State, and his most trusted subordinates were those who traveled to various schools in the Chu State. He had good relations with the Chu State's rulers, which was also a kind of support for his subordinates.
But Fei Wuji was different. He was the culprit who caused the death of Jian Jia's brother, Prince Jian. Wu Sheng was unwilling to have any more interactions with him. This had nothing to do with right or wrong. If Jian Jia wants to avenge her brother in the future, Wu Sheng will probably have to help with the planning and design.
So he refused directly: "I have to go somewhere else. I will leave today. I will disappear when Fei's family comes. I can help Brother Xue to deal with it."
Xue Zhong knew that Wu Sheng's business was important, so he immediately agreed: "Fei Wuji has a very bad reputation in Yingdu, and his butt is not very stable. It is right to follow the rules and not see him."
After leaving Yingdu, Wu Sheng rushed to Suicheng without stopping. Different from Xue Zhong, although Sui Yue belonged to the same lineage as Ziyu and Luo Lingfu earlier, after the "Five Walks and Links", he was even more obedient to Wu Sheng than Xue Zhong.
If Xue Zhong and Wu Sheng are close because of their interest relationship and the fact that they belong to the same camp, then Sui Yue feels more awe and admiration in this closeness, and even sheds tears of gratitude. Without him, his future in the academy will not be the same. It was Wu Sheng who saved it all.
Therefore, after meeting Sui Yue, Wu Sheng didn't have too many polite words and went straight to the point: "You know what happened between me and Chang Hong, right?"
Sui Yue nodded: "What do you need me to do here?"
Wu Sheng said: "You don't need to do anything specific, I just want to ask you a question."
Seeing that he asked seriously, Sui Yue immediately bowed and said, "Please tell me."
Wu Sheng asked: "If one day, the academy must be divided and the south and the north stand side by side, which side will you choose?"
Sui Yue was stunned. Seeing that Wu Sheng had no intention of further explanation, he immediately started a fierce struggle in his heart. This question raised by Wu Sheng contains too much information and its implications are so far-reaching that people dare not think about it in detail.
There is no need to dwell on it. In order to solve the problem for himself that day, Wu Sheng took a huge risk and went head-to-head with Jian Wu. He really did it to the point of not caring about his own life. If he turned against Sui Yue at this moment, I am afraid he will be punished for the rest of his life. Ridiculous!
The inner struggle was just a breath. Sui Yue knew that he had no choice, and immediately answered: "Whichever side you follow, Sui Yue chooses!"
Wu Sheng smiled and said: "Don't be nervous. When Sun acts, he usually plans for the worst and works hard for the best. This is just the worst situation. I hope that when the results come out, there will be no need to make it difficult for everyone." Make a choice.”
As soon as these words came out, Sui Yue was determined. How could Sun Fengxing, who could say these words, be comparable to Changhong who played the piano?
