Don't Ask Where People Go After Time Travel

The scenery of the pavilions and terraces is still the same as yesterday, and the tea cups and tea drinkers have not changed.In just one day, the ups and downs of the outside world have changed a lot.

The three of them drank tea and remained silent. Seeing this, Zhong Yao took the lead to break the silence, "Lu Tang's father was implicated by the Shangguan's family and was convicted. After that, he became ill and then ignored him. As for Lu Tang's uncle Lu Zhizhang, the lower official had a conversation with him last night. As for the matter of building the Northern Protectorate's Mansion, I asked him to go to Pingshan City to invite General Huangfu over to discuss the matter together. I think he should be in Pingshan City at the moment, and he won't be able to come back for a while. When he comes back, Lu Tang will have already assigned him. The rest The families of the people involved in the case are eager to disentangle themselves, so they should not come out to embarrass them."

"Master Zhong is very considerate, just deal with it. No matter who comes out to make things difficult, you don't have to worry about it, I will deal with it." Fang Zilan looked indifferent, and gently put down the teacup in his hand.

She stood up and bowed with fists in her hands, "If Master Zhong hadn't planned a strategy today, I'm afraid it wouldn't have ended so easily. I misunderstood Master Zhong yesterday, and there were so many offenses in my words, I hope Master Zhong will not hold grudges. Fang Zilan is here to give Mr. Zhong can't make up for it."

"Lord Fang, you don't have to be polite." Zhong Yao stood up quickly, and saluted respectfully, "This case involves a lot. If it wasn't for Lord Fang's support, the lower officials would not have made up their minds to investigate thoroughly. What Master Fang taught yesterday is , seeking a job in his position, and the lower official is in the position of magistrate of Yanzhou. Even if he has to weigh the pros and cons, he must not be restrained and shrink back. It will be better."

Fang Zilan sighed softly, "I know your concerns. After all, you are from a commoner background. It is not easy to get where you are today, so you are cautious as if you are walking on thin ice, for fear that if you make a mistake, you will be pushed into the abyss. But people in high positions , no matter how good the family background is, who is not like this? From the one in Qiankun Palace, down to me, the Lord of the Northern Territory, people are staring at me all the time, waiting for those of us in high positions to come out of the storm. If we fall, they will step on them again, so that we will never turn over."

"General Xiahou may not help Mo Bin and his son, but he will definitely protect Dajing." As soon as Su Yun finished speaking, he saw the people in front of him stop. The first one. Mr. Su understands this very well."

She said with a slow expression, "Mo Han once told me that both Mo Bin and Mo Yang are very principled people. I don't deny Mo Han's words, but I think their principles are too petty, and there are no frontier generals." Demeanor."

"Not everyone is as open-minded as Master Fang." Su Yun raised his eyebrows and curled his lips, "I'm curious, why does Master Fang insist on protecting Mohan?"

"Mo Han is my cousin, the only relative I have in this world." Fang Zilan said frankly, and then changed the subject: "Master Su, if you regret it, you might as well leave now, otherwise you will just stay with me This southeastern border lost his life."

"Regret?" Su Yun seemed to have thought of something, and said with a light smile, "Your Majesty Fang, you know that His Majesty originally ordered Mr. Zhuge to be a special envoy to come to the southeast?"

"I was just thinking..." Fang Zilan paused, then changed her voice, "Master Zhong, has he ever seen a cobblestone?"

Zhong Yao was taken aback by her question, but still nodded and said: "I have seen it before."

Fang Zilan then asked: "Does Master Zhong think the pebbles look good?"

Zhong Yao was at a loss, "What does Master Fang want to say?"

"I don't know what's wrong. I suddenly had some strange thoughts in my heart, and I felt a little uncomfortable. I wonder if Mr. Zhong would like to listen?" Fang Zilan's expression and tone were all asking, and Zhong Yao sat upright and said, "I would like to hear the details."

"When I mentioned being in a high position just now, I was thinking that in fact, no matter who it is, they can choose to be a puppet with a glamorous appearance and let the people around them dress up until they become the appearance that everyone is satisfied with. You can choose to hold a sword and be an indomitable brave man, no matter what the people around you do, just go to the end with one belief and will."

Fang Zilan looked at the tea smoke curling up in front of her eyes, and suddenly smiled, "Will you find it funny when I tell you this?"

Zhong Yao didn't speak, but quietly looked at the indifferent but firm woman in front of him through the tea smoke.

Her face could not be called beautiful, but it was the outline of an ordinary person, but he had traced it in his mind for a long time, feeling that he had never seen such a person before.

It took him a long time before he spoke again: "Which one will Mr. Fang choose?"

"I want to choose the second one." Fang Zilan replied without hesitation, but she smiled a little embarrassed when she finished speaking, "but it's just thinking about it. Mr. Wang Quanzhi told me before that the more you get, the better you get." The more choices there are, the less room for choice. I know it in my heart, but I am still not convinced. Unexpectedly, so many things have happened, and even if I am not convinced, I will admit that what he said is true."

"It's one thing to know, but another to be unconvinced." Zhong Yao smiled slightly and poured another cup of tea for her, "No wonder Mr. Fang asked about pebbles. Before I became an official, I heard Shangguan Jing general say However, he said that when he was a teenager, he was more or less arrogant, until he got older and encountered more troubles, he knew that the youthful spirit could not be counted. In the end, his temperament was worn away, and he became a pebble in your mouth, Mr. Fang."

He picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, and continued, "The former in Mr. Fang's mouth is like this cobblestone, but if everyone in the world is like this, it's really boring."

Fang Zilan couldn't help asking curiously: "Then what kind is Master Zhong?"

The smile on Zhong Yao's face grew a little more, "Xiaguan is the same as Mr. Fang. He once wanted to find his own way with perseverance, but he couldn't help but let the waves beat him by the waves. Get a foothold in the vortex. But..."

As he spoke, he raised the teacup in his hand, "I'm ashamed, if it wasn't for Mr. Fang's words today, I'm afraid I would have forgotten that I had also chosen the second one. I hope Mr. Fang will not be convinced today, but in the future Don't give in, and truly become the second type of person in your mouth. The next official will drink tea instead of wine, and toast Mr. Fang."

As if her mind had been seen through, Fang Zilan laughed loudly, "Let's all wait for our respective fates to come! After stepping onto the stage, no matter who you are, there will be times when you want to be alone."

Her eyes fell behind Zhong Yao, and there was nothingness in front of her eyes, but it seemed that it was all there was. "When you enter there, as a character, you will start an endless performance. But at least, there are some things we can decide for ourselves."

After she finished speaking, she raised her teacup and drank it down.
