MTL - Kunning-Chapter 102 sage devil

Gong Yicheng is already in his fifties, with a very thin face and a thin body like a dead branch. He looks ordinary on the outside, with a goatee on his chin, a pair of eyes that reveal a bit of insight and planning, and a gray cloth robe that even looks a little old, making it hard to see. I believe that such an unremarkable person is actually one of the well-known second masters of Tianjiao, a very high-ranking counselor who follows the leader of the teaching.

He has been in Tianjiao for almost thirty years.

There are countless things I have experienced with the head coach. It can be said that I have already seen the situation and I am not surprised.

It's just that when Xie Wei's people approached him and asked him to come to the house for a briefing, this scheming man still smelled something unusual.

Gongyicheng is not afraid of Xie Wei.

After all, even though the leader has raised this person for twenty years and even adopted him as a foster son, he seems to treat him as his own and trust him very much, but Xie Wei's background is special after all.

He just finds it troublesome.

But people have already come to the door, where can we not go?

And during the period of staying in Beijing, Gong Yicheng really found some bad clues, and was thinking about finding an appropriate time to beat Xie Wei, so that he could remember what is his duty.

So, he still came.

"Please come in."

Xie Wei's faint sound came from inside the Qinqin Hall.

Just like when Gong Yicheng saw him occasionally in Jinling, nothing has changed in these years.

With a thought in his mind, he walked in.

Jianshu stood outside the door and did not go in.

Some dim light shines in from the window sill outside the Qinqin hall. Xie Wei is wearing a snow-white Taoist robe, and only uses an ebony hairpin to tie his hair, most of which is scattered behind him, revealing a sense of casualness and leisure at home. .

A tea set is ready.

He looked up and saw Gongyi Cheng, asked him to sit down, and smiled: "A few days ago, I heard that Mr. Gongyi arrived in the capital. I still didn't believe it. I thought that if Mr. came to the capital, he would probably tell Xie something. Unexpectedly, Mr. here comes."

The core forces of Tianjiao are all in the south.

The capital is located in the north, and the power of the imperial court is strong, and the control becomes weaker as it goes south, which is also suitable for Tianjiao to preach and develop its power.

Gongyicheng is often in Jinling.

As for the capital, it has always been a place where the power of the Tianjiao is weak.

But since Xie Wei went to Beijing to take the exam a few years ago, especially when he returned to the capital four years ago to plan to help Shen Lang ascend the throne, such a person has become a hidden stake for Tianjiao to enter the court, and has even grown stronger over the years. As a result, the influence of Tianjiao was able to develop secretly in Beijing, and it has reached a considerable scale by now.

It's just that here, Xie Wei is the one who talks.

Logically speaking, as a member of the sect, Gong Yicheng should say hello to Xie Wei when he came to the capital, but he didn't.

Gong Yicheng sat opposite Xie Wei, and raised his eyes to look at him at this moment, as if he was trying to figure out the deep meaning behind his words, but he spoke very directly: "The leader has an order, and the matter is urgent, and he is busy dealing with it. , I forgot it if I didn't pay attention. Besides, didn't you already know it?"

Xie Wei poured hot water into the teacup.

Gongyicheng looked at the flowing white water, and said calmly: "When you arrive in this capital, there are eyes and ears everywhere, and there are still people who want to ask if I should ask you to show me what to do when I am in the capital. Need me to inform you?"

Xie Wei's hand holding on to the pot paused, and said: "Mr. Gongyi's words are serious, everyone in the Tianjiao respects the leader of the leader, orders must be obeyed, orders must be followed, the leader's kindness to Wei is as important as a mountain, how dare Wei dare to overstep ?”

Gong Yicheng smiled coldly: "Really?"

Xie Wei put the pot of boiling water back on the stove, his expression didn't change, he turned around and poured tea for Gong Yicheng, said: "Wei Wei asked himself, it doesn't harm the Heavenly Sect."

Gong Yicheng's eyes suddenly became sharper, he stood up, took two steps, looked down at him from a relatively high position, and said: "Then how do you explain what happened outside Tongzhou and Fengtai?"

Xie Wei took a sip of tea and raised his eyebrows: "What's the matter?"

Gong Yicheng looked at his calm appearance as if he didn't know what was going on, and finally felt a surge of anger rising from his chest, and his voice became a little bit sharper, and scolded: "The dog emperor made a wrong move to deal with the Yongyi Houfu. But inciting the hearts of the people and causing chaos in the world, and using this to win over the forces in the army and strengthen our sect, it is a godsend opportunity to overthrow the imperial court! But the three groups of people who were sent successively were like mud cows into the sea and disappeared. The corpses were found here, and all of them were intercepted and killed! Would you not know?!"

It is probably because the water used to make tea today is too hot, and the brewed tea soup has passed over the tip of the tongue, leaving a somewhat astringent taste.

It's winter, and the new spring teas are all on the shelf.

Xie Wei then slowly put down the teacup in his hand, and when he raised his eyes, he met Shang Gongyi Cheng's gaze and smiled slightly: "Oh, there is another matter? Ever since Mr. Gongyi entered Beijing, he has never dared to do anything dangerous in the teaching." Intervening, all the affairs are taken care of by the husband, but I really don’t know that such a big thing happened. But who did it? "

"..."

The four eyes met, Xie Wei's eyes and expression were extremely peaceful, but Gong Yicheng was tense, his whole face exuded an indescribable solemnity.

Even though well water never interferes with river water, Gong Yicheng always seems to be at odds with Xie Wei.

He felt that the teacher made a mistake in this move. He should have exterminated such a person back then, and let him reach such a high position in the Tianjiao, and even let him go to the capital where the Tianjiao's influence is difficult to penetrate!

Luring the wolf into the house, and letting the tiger go back to the mountain!

Gong Yicheng said: "That's really strange. I thought that Du Jun and Yongyihou's mansion had a very close relationship after all. This time, you personally went to crown and name him for the crowning ceremony of the young prince. You look like nostalgic feelings, and then think that you are dissatisfied with the plan of Tianjiao, and secretly obstruct it, thinking that the leader is too cruel!"

Xie Wei said: "Mr. Gongyi misunderstood."

However, when he said this, he did not look directly at Gongyicheng, but turned his eyes to look at the withered vegetation in the courtyard, then got up, and went to the window with his hands behind his back: "My ambition and the ambition of the leader It is generally the same, Mr. Gongyi has been teaching for so many years, I should have known what I did."

"That was in the past, I thought I knew that's all. Now that we are in the capital, we must know that people's hearts are changeable." Gong Yicheng laughed mockingly, "The government and the public and even the whole capital know that 'Mr. Xie' is very popular with the Holy One. After taking charge of the Hanlin Academy, his position has become more and more stable. I am afraid that after another two years, not only the name of the emperor's teacher, but also the real emperor's teacher will be soon! The glory, wealth and charming eyes, who remembers the oath made back then, What will you do next?"

There are exquisite carvings on the window lattice, which is quite a Jiangnan sentiment.

It's just that there is no such cold wind in the south of the Yangtze River, or such a large amount of snow.

There is a flower goblet beside it, but there are no fresh flower branches in this season, and only three arrows are stuck in it.

Xie Wei reached out and picked up one.

The hand is heavy, the arrow cluster is made of black iron, the body of the arrow is painted with thin silver patterns, and the arrow feathers are two pieces of delicate gold leaf, embedded in the arrow tail. This kind of flashy thing at first glance is probably a gift from a colleague in the DPRK.

He twirled his fingers lightly.

The arrow followed suit.

Xie Wei said: "Mr. Gongyi's words, you don't believe me. In this way, the case of Yu Ruyi in Gongli was also written by Mr.?"

The jade ruyi dedicated to Empress Dowager Xiao is engraved with the evil words against the party.

A turmoil broke out and ruined his arrangement in the inner palace, his hard work in three or two years was ruined, and he was forced to cut off his tail in order to protect himself! He hasn't even settled this account yet!

Having said that, I finally feel a little bit of tit-for-tat.

Gong Yicheng laughed out loud when he heard that.

He lifted his robe, sat down again, picked up the tea, but said gloomyly: "I ruined your arrangement and moved your staff, you really are dissatisfied in your heart!"

Xie Wei came to the front of the tea table, behind was the empty wall used to face the wall, he only said: "People who ask for something will be attracted by me. Most of the errands in the palace are from poor people The House of Yongyi Hou is a loyal family who protects the family and defends the country. Mr. Gongyi has assisted the head of the church for many years. Involving many innocent people, but also trapping the Marquis's mansion in a place of infidelity and injustice, disregarding the lives of his entire family. Dare I ask you, sir, do you still remember the oath you made and the ambition you made?"

"Okay, okay! It can be regarded as telling the truth!" Gong Yicheng couldn't help clapping his hands, but when he looked at Xie Wei, he was a little more contemptuous, "A few months ago, the leader sent me secretly to Beijing to understand the situation. When presiding over the overall situation, I was worried. Firstly, I was afraid that you would be fascinated by wealth, and secondly, I was afraid that you would be too involved with the Hou Mansion. The benevolence of a woman! I thought you were a person who took care of the overall situation, but unexpectedly, you were all taught by the leader. In words!"

Xie Wei looked back at him, but didn't answer.

Gong Yicheng's eyes were cold, and even his voice was chilly, he said: "Don't forget who spared your life back then, and who made you have everything you have today! You know God The teacher treats you as much as a mountain, and you are like a reinvention, so you should know where you are! There is no room for you to comment on what the teacher is doing first?!"

Xie Wei remained silent.

The arrow was at his fingertips, without any warmth.

Only the golden arrow feathers reflected the dimming sky, refracting a little light.

Gong Yicheng's tone seemed to be admonishing rather than talking, and he asked himself that he was older than Xie Wei and had more seniority in Tianjiao than Xie Wei, so he was qualified to teach him such a lesson.

There was even a hint of a threat and warning between the words.

After this time, Xie Wei will definitely lose the trust of the head teacher, so he will not put Xie Wei on the same position as himself, and said awe-inspiringly: "Helping the poor and helping the poor, the world is united, is just a teaching to attract people's hearts. To achieve great things , Sacrificing a few insignificant people, sacrificing a brave man's mansion is nothing! In a troubled world, a saint is nothing but a waste, and only a hero can overthrow this world!"

In troubled times, a sage is nothing but a waste, and only a hero can subvert this world.

Xie Wei did not speak for a long time.

It wasn't until the gold leaf fletching on the arrow he was holding on to no longer reflected the light of the sky that he said slowly, "You're right."

Gong Yicheng talked a lot, and finally took a sip of tea, moistened his throat, and without looking back at his expression, he just said: "From now on, don't meddle in the academic affairs of Beijing Central—"

Just halfway through the words, the back of his head suddenly felt heavy!

Unexpectedly, it was Xie Wei who walked behind him at some point, stretched out a hand, pressed his head hard without warning, and bumped into the tea table!

"Crackling!"

The tea sets piled on the tea table suddenly fell to pieces!

Not to mention Gongyicheng's advanced age, he never thought about the dangers he would encounter when he went to Xie Wei's mansion today, because he never thought about Xie Wei's many years in Tianjiao and dared to do something shocking to the world. don't come!

Everything is in the blink of an eye!

Xie Wei was expressionless, the arrow in his hand pierced Gongyicheng's neck cruelly, and the sharp arrow made of black iron pierced out from the front of his throat, with such force that it nailed him to the table, The blood veins on the side of his neck burst and spurted out a large stream of blood, splashing his white body!

"Gulu..."

Gong Yicheng made some strange noises with unknown meanings from his throat.

Both eyes were rounded because of panic, he struggled frantically, stretched out his hand, grabbed Xie Wei tightly to hold his hand, and also covered his throat, as if he wanted to use this feeble effort to save him. own passing life.

But how vain all this is before the eyes of this indifferent man!

Not reconciled, I can't believe it!

Gong Yicheng's mouth was bleeding, and he stared at him: "Du Jun! You..."

But it was so blurry at all that I couldn't hear it clearly.

Xie Wei seemed to be in a daze, thinking of the tall cherry tree in the Yongyihou Mansion, as before, slowly and softly said: "You are right. A saint can't accomplish anything, what the world wants is a hero People who follow the rules always have a harder time walking..."

So, what rules are there?

He can do what others do, and he will do it more ruthlessly and absolutely than others! Just like this moment!

At the end of his life, Gong Yicheng finally realized something, and also realized the meaning behind Xie Wei's words.

But there was no time to think about it.

It's too late to regret.

The blood gushing from his neck was no longer as violent as before, it was as if the spring that had spewed out slowly dried up and became peaceful.

There was a piece of dripping on and off the tea table.

I gradually lost my breath.

Still warm blood flowed from under Xie Wei's feet, he didn't move a step, and he slowly let go until the skinny corpse under his hands stopped moving.

The face of a sage is covered with blood!

Turning around, the snow-white clothes were already shocking, and when he looked up, he saw Jianshu standing at the door, looking at him in amazement.

Xie Wei lowered his eyes, walked over to pick up a clean towel on the table to wipe his hands, and said plainly: "Clean it up."
