Xie Ming

Chapter 484 Thankless

When it comes to the affairs of Shandong and Jianghuai in the northern border, Yao Zuyin devised a strategy of striking back after the enemy is attacked, and he himself revealed Yao Ban's method of driving a tiger to devour a wolf and killing someone with a borrowed knife!
Xiao was concerned about this and just said one sentence that he was worried about the people's livelihood, which caused Yao Zuyin to scold him.

Hearing this, Xiao Lang also seemed helpless. After listening to the words, he expressed his sincere attitude of accepting the teachings.

"Yes!"

"Master, I've taken note of your teachings!"

"To calculate the overall situation!"

"Make up your mind and let everything go to hell!"

"If you don't break, you won't stand!"

"After we smash everything to pieces, we'll start over again!"

"Then those thorns that are attached to our bones can be completely eradicated, and our land and wealth can all be taken away at once!"

"Only in this way can talented people who are willing to take on practical tasks in the future be promoted to score points, and things can really develop in a good direction!"

"Appoint capable ministers at home, guard the army abroad, reunite the people, and march north to wield the sword!"

Xiao Lang relied on Yao Zuyin's words to give a clear outline.

"Hehehe"

"Of course!"

"My friend Qiu and I really didn't expect that kid in the palace could do this so easily. It was totally unexpected!"

"So I came here tonight to change my tactics, showing up rashly, and suddenly planning to bring out all these new tricks!"

"It's a sudden incident!"

"Xiaochuan, you find it hard to trust me completely at the moment? Huh?!"

"Hahaha"

The old monk is as clear as seeing through fire. He can understand the other party's hidden intention between the lines, the choice of words and the tone of argument, and can make it clear to the public.

Hearing this, Xiao Lang looked embarrassed and didn't want to say anything more.

"Uh"

"Haha, Master, what are you talking about?" Xiao Yu argued.

Yao Zuyin, however, did not seem to care much about this. He smiled and waved his hand to stop him from talking any more.

"Hehehehe."

"It's okay! It's not a problem!"

"It's no wonder you went there!"

"However, now that things have come to this, after all this talk, all I can say is just go with the flow!"

"Xiaochuan, tomorrow is the day of the closure, you will have a lot of work to do!"

"I have said what I need to say, so I won't bother you any more! Huh?!"

"After tomorrow's work is done, if there is anything else that comes up, we can discuss it later!"

"If you can understand this, my work won't be in vain!"

After the old monk finished speaking, he stood up, as if he was about to leave.

Seeing this, Qiu Zhizhong beside him also stood up hurriedly, walked to the other side of the old monk, and raised his hand to help.

After walking a few steps, the two of them approached the door, and Xiao Jingchuan followed behind them.

Then the three people outside the threshold stopped again, and Zhizhong suddenly came over to talk to them.

"Oh yes!"

"Master, please go back first. I have something else to say to Lao Xiao!"

While Zhizhong was speaking, he winked and looked outside into the courtyard, and another of his men came over.

Zhizhong also took the opportunity to ask someone else to send Yao Zuyin off.

"Hoo Hoo Hoo"

"well!"

"My two young friends, please do as you please. I will not accompany you any longer!"

After Yao finished speaking, he bowed and put his hands together in greeting.

Seeing this, Xiao and Qiu also hurriedly straightened their postures and returned the greetings.

The three parties did not say much, and Yao Zuyin left.

After the man walked away and only Xiao and Qiu were left in front of the door, Xiao Jingchuan suddenly let out a long breath, and could no longer hold back, so he spoke first.

"Hey! I'm talking to you Feiyu!"

"Why did you bring such a huge Buddha statue? You should have informed me in advance!" "Hey, I just got here and you brought people to knock on my door?!"

"It's just that I'm good-natured and smart!"

"Who else can withstand what you have done?!" Xiao Lang complained anxiously.

"Hey!"

"What are you talking about?!"

"I was afraid that you would make a mistake, so I stayed up in the middle of the night and rushed over to save you!"

"It would be fine if you didn't say a word of thanks, but you're blaming me!"

"Are you on the same page in advance? You're picking up this bullshit!"

"How can I be in agreement with you?!"

"Bring the troops north, you have been on the north bank for half a month. It is difficult for the cities, counties and prefectures to find your troops, and they cannot even pass on urgent imperial edicts. And yet, we are still looking for you!"

"Speak again, you are running all the way back!"

"The troops kept going on the road, and when they reached Nanjing, something unexpected happened!"

"If I hadn't planted spies in the palace and knew that something happened in your Wuying Palace, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to contact you right now!"

"I just told you the truth. I'm just starting out here, and I don't have as much manpower as you think!"

"You're picking on me."

Hearing Xiao Lang's complaints, Zhizhong fumed and glared. He was not used to his good mood, so he went up to him and started to confront him.

Seeing this, Xiao Jingchuan also turned his face away instantly. He knew that things would be difficult, so he changed the subject abruptly.

"Hey hey hey!"

"I, I just arrived in Nanjing for the first time. I'm unfamiliar with the place and I'm nervous. I'm being too cautious!"

"You said, this Yao Zuyin, although I did meet him once many years ago!"

"But, after all, it's hard to know everything about him. It's not as safe as if we two meet first to sort out the urgent matters at hand!"

"I feel uncomfortable when such a great Buddha suddenly appears before me!"

Xiao Lang breathed a sigh of relief. What he said made sense.

Upon hearing this, Zhizhong frowned and still looked worried and sighed.

"call--"

"Definitely!"

"I don't want to bother with you about this!"

"It's true that Yao Zuyin has some connection with my clan, but I actually had no dealings with him before!"

"Speaking of this, it all started with an old case a few days ago. That case involved the problem of cliques in the court. I personally investigated it and happened to find this person!"

"Later, by some strange coincidence, I had a deep conversation with him. It was also after that that I officially confronted him!"

"And according to what he said, he actually has a past with you, so that's why we met each other!"

"Ugh"

"There are many twists and turns in this matter. Since you are in a hurry, I won't go into details!"

"But you can rest assured about him!"

"Firstly, Yao Zuyin was involved in a major case. I secretly altered the files myself. The evidence is still in my hands!"

"It's a crime of genocide. If he is exposed, he will be killed without a burial place!"

"Secondly, after spending many days together, I found that although I am more cunning than this person, my thoughts are the same as yours and mine. We are like-minded!"

"It is true that he is an evil monk, but his plans are far-reaching and far beyond the reach of you and me!"

"That's why I am willing to indulge him and treat him with kindness. I think he is a great talent and can be used by you in the future. It would be good for him to become a military advisor or a prime minister!"

"It's just that I asked him to come and consult with me about tonight's matter. I really wanted to meet with you alone first!"

"But you've already sensed it from what you just said. He has a peculiar temper and is not someone that is easy to control!"

"Since he has already settled in the temple and strongly demands to see you, what can I do right now?!"

"It's not right to force your opinion just because you are shy!"

"No matter how much I say, it's all because of you, kid!"

"You're still... not happy!"

"I am a grown-up girl who is nursing other families' children. I can't get a single word of praise from you for all my hard work!"

Zhizhong kept mumbling, feeling resentful and like a bullied young wife.
