So the next day, Jiang Tian appeared in the Pei Mansion in Daozhengfang, accepting the reception of tea and fruits. But in a sense, Jiang Tian was not unfamiliar with this place. He was just a regular visitor.
Yes, I came to visit you, but this was the first time.
Therefore, as a benefactor related to the Pei family, he was welcomed in from the right side door. According to the etiquette of the imperial court, the vassal minister who is relatively independent of the outer dynasty vassal court is regarded as a third-rank official; therefore
, are not only qualified to erect a halberd in front of the door, but also have a special Yimen archway.
Among them, the main door can only be opened after receiving the royal edict; it is usually called the Yingen Gate or the Xianxie Gate. Therefore, the left and right side doors are for daily use. For example, when high-ranking officials or famous guests
When you come, you will be welcomed by the side door facing left.
The door on the right side is where the main family members of the house come and go on a daily basis. As for the slaves, servants, generals, housekeepers, etc., because they need to go in and out for daily life, they can only go through the side door and the back door.
.So Jiang Tian was introduced to the right door, which is an obvious attitude.
But what happened next was far more than that. Jiang Tian was not arranged in the large flower hall in the front yard specially used for entertaining guests, nor did he enter the Shuipan Banquet Hall in the main house; instead, he walked through the hall and was taken to the inner house with side glances.
/In the back garden, there is the "Suishoutang", which was specially used for the old-age care of the previous family head.
This was a bit more grand than Jiang Tian had expected. Although it was not as solemn as bringing it directly to the family temple from Prince Pu's palace, almost all the main members of Pei's family gathered here; even some of Pei's old family heads were very charming.
All the remaining concubines were dressed up and summoned to see him.
Compared with Jiang Tian, a guest who came to the door for the first time (not counting the few times he walked in at night), the so-called highest courtesy of entering the house and paying homage to the elders was nothing more than that. However, as a sister with whom we have a truly intimate relationship,
(Hui Xiang), but only made a brief appearance.
So Jiang Tian even once suspected that this was a (forced marriage) surprise prepared by the girl's parents? But after meeting the members of the family, the old family leader Pei did not hesitate to give up the eldest son of the family on the grounds of physical fatigue.
Everyone else, including Pei Wuben, was sent out.
Then, this old gentleman with white beard and hair, who seemed to be clear and strong, specially kept Jiang Tian. When no one was around, he smiled and said: "To be honest, Huixiang, this kid,
She has been very opinionated and insightful since she was a child, and sometimes even I may not be able to defeat her."
"It's just that she sacrificed her life for her family and trusted others, so she no longer trusts people easily; but once she believes something, it's hard to shake her heart." Then he waved his hand to Jiang Tian and said, "I naturally believe her.
With human eyes, I am happy to see everything between you come to fruition."
"I naturally believe in Jiang Sheng. He has great ability to protect and considerate her, and I am willing to treat her well." After all the foreshadowing, Pei's family leader finally got straight to the point: "But because of the love for my daughter.
"Can Jiang Sheng please answer some of my questions?"
"... Please tell me, Mr. Pei." At this moment, Jiang Tian couldn't help but sigh in his heart, this is the real drama. However, this is also something that will happen sooner or later or that requires a showdown; Jiang Tian has also been prepared for this.
I have made some mental preparations and (fudge) rhetorical preparations.
"I once heard Ajiu and Huixiang vaguely mention that Jiang Sheng has some extraordinary means and abilities." Hearing this, the head of the Pei family hesitated for a moment before speaking up: "Please forgive me for being too worried, but Jiang Sheng is
Do you have any origins and relationships with those immortals in ancient legends?"
"Actually, there is no need to hide anything, as long as Mr. Pei can keep it secret." Jiang Tianxiao said with a smile: "I am not originally from this world. It was just due to fate that I was led by some cause and effect not long ago.
And then. So naturally I have some things that I must do."
"As for the rumored sages and sages from the ancient immortal family, they are actually not that miraculous; they are just people who happened to meet up and had great power in the time of chaos." Jiang Tian continued to explain: "It's just that after being passed down by later generations,
Correspondingly, exaggerations and fallacies are inevitable.”
"As for my relationship with them, I can't say that there is much origin. Because, after the shackles of heaven and earth gradually formed in ancient times and the spiritual energy dried up, we parted ways with this generation; some people tried to save themselves with humanity, and some people went into hibernation.
In the mountains and rivers, there are still people who transcend this world."
"Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors started the three-generation rule of humanity." Jiang Tian thought for a while and then said: "Later, Zulong tried to gain access to heaven and earth, but naturally there was a backlash. Not only did Daodu die suddenly, but even the country also died for the second generation.
.But since then, the era of great prosperity of humanity has become irreversible."
"In the subsequent rise and fall and chaos, whether it is gods, gods or monsters, it becomes more and more difficult for them to show their holiness and intervene in the secular world. Although there are occasional repetitions and anomalies during this period, as long as there is peace and prosperity, it will be greatly promoted by humanity.
The anger is suppressed again."
"It turns out that Jiang Sheng appeared in this world because of the current situation of changes in the world?" Upon hearing this, the old family leader Pei couldn't help but breathed quickly with shock and emotion on his face: "But I didn't know that someone like Jiang Sheng could be able to live in this world today?"
How many will come back to the world again?"
"It's really hard to say." Jiang Tian smiled more and more inscrutably: "After all, if I throw a true spirit from the sky like this, it will be my only one for the time being; but the inheritance of ancient bloodline and Taoism, even a little bit
It is still possible for the spiritual reincarnation of the incomplete soul body to awaken."
"However, with the awakening and emergence of the world, not only those ancient inheritances, but also the resurgence of monsters and monsters." Jiang Tian paused when he said this: "Therefore, I did not come to this world to pass on the immortality.
The method is to raise up killings and bring peace to the world."
"It's just that I am still limited by the shackles of heaven and earth, and I can only use some of my own power; but in the future, if the corresponding restrictions become looser and more and more invisible spiritual energy spreads over the world, then the court will have to face
Yes, it’s not just a problem caused by beasts and ghosts.”
"In this case, someone asked me to ask again, how much did Jiang Sheng know about the 'Night Wandering God'?" After hearing this, the old family leader Pei took a deep breath and said with increasing excitement:
"How do you view what this person has done..."
This is also the second time someone has asked about the potential relationship between Jiang Tian and the Night Travel God. However, the previous time was in the Xuanzheng Hall in Beinei (Daming Palace), where the suspected stand-in "His Royal Highness the Supervisor" asked on behalf of the Tianjia position;
But this time it is obviously an inquiry originating from another background in foreign countries.
"Perhaps we just met a few times accidentally." Jiang Tian said half-truth: After all, he couldn't deny that when he was acting in the ghost market, the night wandering god appeared in public. "Maybe he knows a little bit about my origins.
, but I may not know his identity behind the mask."
"As for what he did, I naturally disapprove of it from a public to private standpoint;" Jiang Tian pretended to be thoughtful and continued: "But unless he met him personally and blocked my way, he would not deliberately do it.
Deal with him because the price is too high and it will affect innocent people and even implicate them unjustly."
"How do you say this?" Patriarch Pei couldn't help but asked earnestly: "Could it be that your magical powers and methods, when entangled, will cause earth-shaking and huge harm?"
"That's probably the case!" Jiang Tian was amused when he heard this, and he just figured it out in his head; but he said calmly: "What's more, I suspect that he, like me, also has a different mission in this world; so, if
I won't do it easily unless I have to."
"Because within three to five hundred steps, with my current ability, I may be able to beat him or suppress him temporarily, but I can't stop him from escaping. But three to five hundred steps away, it is obvious that his
The means are more advantageous, and once an attack breaks out, it will be difficult to escape unscathed."
"So, Mr. Pei, listen to me." Jiang Tian said to him solemnly: "Don't fight with him in a densely populated city! Otherwise, even if there are thousands of troops gathered,
, it may not be possible to capture him, but the price will be extremely heavy."
After finally saying goodbye to Pei Mansion, Jiang Tian also felt some subtle changes. It was like a distinguished guest who had just come to visit suddenly became his own family in an indirect sense; and among the various salutations,
, a little more cordial, ambiguous and inexplicable attitude.
Of course, Jiang Tian also slowly reflected on the details of this meeting; especially those last questions of Mr. Pei, the indirect position and background represented were already clear. And Jiang Tian could create a left-right and left-right confrontation.
The sophistry was precisely what the forces behind it heard.
No matter how much they believed, or whether they believed it or not; but in the context of the attack on His Royal Highness, Jiang Tian's goal was achieved. Just like those pastoral boxing masters in later generations, as long as they put aside the facts
, just by relying on the random Internet essays to build momentum, I am confident that no one can defeat me in public opinion on the Internet.
What's more, further deepening the relationship with the Pei family is not a strategy that can make those in power feel at ease. A person who is within the system but has basically no desires and desires, but has mastered enough power, can easily
It will cause the superiors to try every means to test and calculate.
Jiang Tian was riding Suo Luzi while thinking and looking at the different styles in the market; along the vertical Jingyaomen Street, when he arrived at Deguangfang where Jingzhao Mansion is located, he was stopped in the street.
.He couldn't help but take a closer look, but it was Zhao Shicao who survived the Battle of Baoxie Valley.
It's just that he has now been "entrusted with important tasks" by the Jingzhao Mansion and has become a special representative dispatched to the Lixingyuan/Xijing branch to coordinate and liaise with relevant matters. I saw Zhao Shicao, who was sweating while riding a donkey,
He reported in a low voice: "A-4 has arrived in Gyeonggi Province, please ask the Supervisor to go and inspect it."
The state of these chapters is not good, and I accept criticism; but because time is seriously fragmented, I can only revise them one by one when I have time in the future.
