Chapter five hundred and ninety-eight not worth mentioning

"Brother Zhou, this way", Yun Jing stood up and greeted Zhou Yu on the street outside the window.

Zhou Yu looked at the sound and couldn't help but smile on his face, and said cheerfully: "Brother Yun, wait a moment, I'll be there soon."

When old friends meet again, even though they met only once, more than a year later, not only are they no longer unfamiliar, but they are even more intimate.

The most important thing when people of letters get along is heart-to-heart communication and mutual speculation, which makes them lifelong friends. On the contrary, if the ideas are not the same, no matter how deliberately we make friends, people will not look at them too highly.

On the way Zhou Yu came over, Yunjing called the waiter at the teahouse and asked him to serve a pot of good tea and some fruits and snacks. The waiter was embarrassed about this. Yangfeng County is located on the border and is already lacking in supplies. In addition, nowadays

In times of disaster, where can I find good tea?

Yunjing was not upset, and just asked him to do his best. Considering the special environment at the moment, in order to dispel the store's worries, Yunjing paid the bill in advance. After that, the waiter hurriedly left to prepare.

Soon Zhou Yu entered the teahouse and walked over. He held his hands towards Yun Jing from a distance and said cheerfully: "Brother Yun, I can't believe you are here. I thought I heard the news wrong before. We haven't seen you for so long.

The style is even better than before”

"Brother Zhou, please sit down here quickly. It's been a long time since we've seen each other. Are you okay? Looking back on the past, drinking and boating, it's just like yesterday. I'm really sad," Yunjing greeted, with a slight emotion in his tone.

Laughing loudly, Zhou Yu sat down as he was told, and couldn't help but said melancholy: "Time flies so fast. When we parted, we were far apart, and it was rare to meet again. Now that we meet again, we are no longer romantic, and we have lost many close friends.

Together, we will be together forever, hey."

Hearing this, Yun Jing also felt something in his heart, but he shook his head and said with a smile: "Brother Zhou, why are you like this? Even if we are separated by thousands of mountains and rivers, letters are exchanged, and the paper is light and the feelings are heavy. If you get a piece of news, it is already happy, let alone

We all have a bright future ahead of us, so we should be happy.”

"Yes, I should be happy," Zhou Yu said with a smile, and then couldn't help but look at Yun Jing and said in surprise: "I have heard a lot about Brother Yun's caution this year. I take it seriously. I joined the army to defend against the enemy."

In the country, the imperial examinations are the most popular, but we are not as good as many others."

"Brother Zhou is overly praised, and some trivial matters are not worth mentioning. But it is Brother Zhou who served as an official for one term, took charge of the government, and served the country and the people. This is what makes people admire him."

"What the hell, Brother Yun doesn't know how difficult it is to govern one party. Hey, it's hard to describe how much suffering it is."

"Then let's not mention these spoilers. Come on, brother Zhou, let's have tea instead of wine. Let's have a drink."

"please……"

After a brief exchange of greetings, the two of them drank tea instead of wine, looked at each other and smiled, feeling very happy.

At this time, the waiter had already brought tea and food. The tea was not good, and the only food was ordinary food such as fried beans.

Seeing this, Zhou Yu hesitated and said: "Brother Yun is here, I should have given you a banquet to welcome the wind..."

"Wait a minute, Brother Zhou has understood. I have been traveling all the way. What I have seen and heard is related to my heart. You and I are friends. Why should we care about the form? In the current situation, how can we eat good wine and delicious food now? It's just the breeze and the bright moon.

Being with him is already rare." Yunjing understood what he meant and immediately interrupted.

Opening his mouth, Zhou Yu sighed and said: "Yes, whenever I think of the suffering of the people, my heart is like a knife and I can't sleep at night... Forget it, let's not mention this. I didn't entertain my brother well this time, so I owe you.

Let's wait until we get better together and find time to hold a banquet for my brother to apologize."

"Haha, I'll keep that in mind," Yun Jing said with a smile, not for the other party's meal, but because he sincerely hoped that the current situation would get better as soon as possible.

Understanding what Yun Jing meant, Zhou Yu also smiled and said: "That's what it should be."

"Brother Zhou, after we separated, you have changed a lot in the past year or so. You have wrinkled eyebrows and lost a lot of weight. It's really worrying." Yunjing looked at him and changed the subject.

Shaking his head slightly, Zhou Yu said helplessly: "I hope Brother Yun knows that Yangfeng County is miserable. In normal years, more than half of the people don't have enough to eat, and now there are disasters. Hey, I have been frugal and frugal for you. I don't want to think too much."

It’s hard to describe the feeling of saving a little to help the people but not being able to change much.”

He spoke sincerely, and Yunjing naturally knew that he was not telling lies. He pondered for a moment and shook his head: "Brother Zhou, I have to say a few words to you."

"Huh? Brother Yun, why is this happening?" Zhou Yu asked, not knowing why.

Yunjing looked at him and said with emotion: "Brother Zhou, your idea is good and you think about the people of Li, but your approach is wrong."

"I would like to hear the details," Zhou Yu said with a serious look on his face.

Yun Jing continued: "Brother Zhou, you are right to save food and clothing for the sake of the people, but the mistake lies in the wrong method. Looking at the food on Brother Zhou's face, if I am not wrong, you may not be able to eat three meals a day.

?”

After receiving his affirmative nod, Yunjing sighed: "This is where you are wrong. Brother Zhou is dedicated to serving the people, but his life is so difficult and miserable. If his body collapses, who will do things for the people?

"

Speaking of this, Yun Jing said in a deep voice: "Brother Zhou may not feel much now. That's because you were upright in the past, but now you have acquired advanced cultivation. You can't eat enough every day. What can you do to maintain your daily consumption? What do you consume now?

What is vital is vitality. If things continue like this, it won’t be long before the whole person will be dragged down!”

Yun Jing said these words extremely seriously, and he was also warning him.

Why did Zhou Yu, who was so charming and elegant at the time, lose so much weight and grow old so quickly in more than a year? It was not because he didn’t eat well and rest well. In the later stages of his cultivation, he relied on food for daily consumption.

Looking for a short time!

"Brothers all know the truth, but I...ah..." Zhou Yu shook his head and sighed.

Yun Jing could only say: "I understand what Brother Zhou means, but if you really think about the people of Li, the first thing is to take good care of yourself. If your body collapses, who can the people look to? I'm not saying, Brother Zhou,

, if you continue like this, I'm afraid that if you don't even get enough treatment, your whole person will collapse."

In the later stages of post-acquired cultivation, it is not an exaggeration to eat half a pig every day to maintain daily consumption. And Zhou Yu has a disheveled face, so you can imagine what kind of life he lives every day.

Scholars, it is undeniable that there are many people who talk about being pampered and privileged, but most of them are serving the country and the people from the bottom of their hearts. They can really sacrifice their lives for righteousness and enjoy the treatment of the country. When they should pay, they are never vague. It is definitely not that kind of behavior.

A few sour poems made me feel emotional.

Zhou Yu understood the truth, but under the current situation, he really couldn't do anything to make him rich, so he changed the subject and said: "Everything will be fine. I will just take care of my body in the future." After saying this, he paused.

He continued: "By the way, Brother Yun has great talents, but now I want to ask you for advice."

Yun Jing shook his head and said: "You, what you have done can only be said to be a good person, but not a good official. Well, that's it for now. I hope Brother Zhou can listen to what I say, and then ask for advice and don't take it. Brother Zhou has

But it doesn’t matter what you say.”

Good person? Good official?

Zhou Yu chewed on this sentence in his heart, but did not take it to heart, but said: "Brother Yun, what I want to ask is, now that the disaster is serious and food is difficult to sustain, how can we save the disaster to the maximum extent? Can you think of it?

Think of a way, my brother is really in trouble."

In times of disaster, this kind of topic is always unavoidable. Yun Jing muttered: "To be honest, I am not as good as Brother Zhou in governing a party, and I am not as good as you in how to manage and distribute. But I have some ideas on how to deal with disasters."

Yunjing is willing to share ideas that can help the common people, but they must be combined with reality.

The current situation in Yangfeng County is not suitable for what Xia Tao talked about at the beginning. Yunjing continued: "To put it bluntly, Brother Zhou, if you want to cure the disaster, you must first put away your kindness. Let's put it this way,

During a disaster, you should not treat the victims as human beings. The only thing you have to do is to let them live. As long as you can let them live, whatever you do is right. There is always not enough food to eat, even if you mix bark grass into the food.

Roots or even dirt are not an exaggeration!”

"This..." Zhou Yu was speechless.

Before, he was only thinking about how to get food to treat the victims, but he never thought about how to maximize the use of the limited resources at hand.

Yunjing continued: "If you want to provide disaster relief, you must first put aside benevolence, justice and morality. The most important thing is people's survival. It is difficult to make porridge for a disaster victim with a handful of rice, but if it is mixed with other things, it is enough to make several people suffer."

I will hang my life for a few days, this is the fact!"

"I've been taught a lesson," Zhou Yu took a deep breath and said.

Yun Jing shook his head and said: "Brother Zhou, there is no need to do this. You and I are just chatting. To be honest, anyone can say anything, but it is really unbearable for me to do that. Moreover, as a scholar, I can't say such a thing."

I’m also extremely ashamed.”

"No, Brother Yun is humbled. These words are golden words of wisdom. They are precious words that can save countless lives," Zhou Yu said with great seriousness.

Without getting too hung up on this, Yun Jing said: "In short, in the face of a disaster, the most important thing is to keep people alive. Only when people survive can we talk about other things. Good rice should be replaced by bad rice, and bad rice should be replaced by old rice.

Adding corn bran, grass roots, leaves and bark to the old rice is very important to keep the victims from starving to death."

"Listening to your words, I don't know how many detours will be avoided, and how many people will be able to survive because of this," Zhou Yu said sincerely.

While they were interacting with each other, someone was approaching outside the teahouse in the dark. There was more than one person, there were five of them, all wearing black clothes and covering their faces.

Four of them have late-stage acquired cultivation. These four people belong to the four directions of the four teahouses. Each of them occupies one side and surrounds the teahouse. The last one has early-stage innate cultivation. He is dressed in black and has a cover.

Wearing a half-face mask and holding a long knife, he entered the teahouse directly.

These people are obviously here for Zhou Yu, and they are all considered masters. It is conceivable that they are determined to win this operation!

After the innate-level man in black entered the teahouse, he sat directly in the lobby, put the long knife on the table, called the frightened waiter and said calmly: "Good wine and good food will be brought up quickly. Eat and drink enough to be strong."

Work!"

Looking at the man in black, the waiter broke out in a cold sweat and said, "Your Majesty, this is a teahouse. There is no food or wine."

"If you don't have it, just go get it. I don't want to say it a second time," the man in black glanced at the waiter and said.

The waiter forced out a smile that was uglier than crying, and immediately rolled away, but the voice of the man in black came from behind and said: "If the food and wine I want are not delivered, you think about the consequences yourself.

"

The waiter was trembling all over and without looking back he went to the shopkeeper to discuss what to do. He was afraid something would happen if he was too late, and people in the world couldn't afford to offend him, especially if he was wearing a mask at night.

Although he was communicating with Zhou Yu, Yun Jing was still aware of the surrounding situation. What surprised him was that the innate master who entered the teahouse had an accent that sounded like that of the Golden Wolf Dynasty!

Yangfeng County is not far from the Golden Wolf Dynasty. It is not surprising that people from the Golden Wolf Dynasty appear here. However, it is worthy of scrutiny that the masters of the Golden Wolf Dynasty who are innate realm come here.

Zhou Yu's eyes flashed, he stopped talking and looked at Yun Jing, lowering his voice and apologizing: "Brother Yun, if nothing unexpected happens, this person is probably coming for me, and he will probably hurt you. I'm here to keep you company for my brother."

, if an accident happens later, remember to put your own safety first, and I will come to apologize to you as a brother afterwards."

Yun Jing nodded slightly and said calmly: "It's okay, Brother Zhou, don't worry about me, but can you tell me what the situation is?"

"It's very complicated to be specific. To put it simply, I just came here to serve for my brother and did some things that touched other people's interests. Some people want to kill me and then hurry up." Zhou Yu lowered his voice and said in a deep voice.

He looked solemn at this time and felt unparalleled pressure. Before coming, he had made psychological preparations for similar situations and had made a series of arrangements. Someone wanted to take advantage of him when he was alone. This was expected, but he didn't expect it.

Here comes the innate master!

This is troublesome, no, it should be said to be dangerous, extremely dangerous. Faced with such a warning, let alone luring the snake out of the hole, the chance of leaving alive is extremely slim.

Yun Jing understood and said calmly: "So it turns out that it's very brave to assassinate the imperial official. This is a serious crime of annihilating a family!"

"It's not just bold, it's downright daring. The people behind it colluded with bandits to rob disaster relief food funds, and now it seems that they have to add a charge of colluding with foreign enemies..." After saying this, Zhou Yu took a deep breath and changed his words: "Brother Yun, we are in trouble now.

, the person behind it is more decisive and ruthless than expected. The person who came here is too powerful. Not to mention punishing him, I am afraid it will be difficult to leave alive. You think of a way to leave quickly. They are targeting me. I think they won't embarrass you... I'm afraid.

My wishful thinking, if something unexpected happens, it is my brother who has harmed you, and I will bear the blame even if I die. I will give you a chance to leave later even if I die!"

Zhou Yu didn't know the details of Yun Jing. His words came from the bottom of his heart and his regret was palpable. If he had known that he would never take risks and put Yun Jing in danger, but now it was too late to say anything.

Yunjing knew that Zhou Yu was not trying to take advantage of him, it was just that his plan went wrong unexpectedly. This situation was normal and no plan could be perfect.

Yun Jing was unmoved by this, but comforted Zhou Yu and said: "Brother Zhou, please be patient. Why should you be afraid of some clowns? Don't let them dampen your interest."

After a pause, Yun Jing continued with a cold look: "I don't know the specific situation, but in the face of the disaster, regardless of the lives and deaths of the people, robbing the disaster relief food funds is an unpardonable crime. It seems that Brother Zhou, you still dare not guarantee it.

Specifically who is doing these things, if so, capturing these people can be used as a breakthrough, so that we can follow the clues and find out the evil thieves behind them!"

"When did this happen? What's the point of Brother Yun saying this?" Zhou Yu said half anxiously and half bitterly.

After taking a sip of tea, Yun Jing said with a smile: "Why is it meaningless? Why don't you just send it to your door? It's a good thing. We can solve the problem once and for all, so that Brother Zhou won't have much energy to do anything for the people.

To be honest, your energy should not be wasted on these things."

"Brother Yun, I understand what you mean, but this person is an innate master," Zhou Yu said tangledly.

Yun Jing gave him a reassuring expression and said, "Brother Zhou, please be patient. It's just innate. Isn't it easy to catch him?"

"Why is Brother Yun so confident?" Zhou Yu asked tangledly.

Yun Jing immediately couldn't laugh or cry and said: "Brother Zhou said all polite things at the beginning of the relationship? So that Brother Zhou will know that after we separated, I joined the army to gain experience and slaughtered more than one enemy country on the battlefield."

"...This", Zhou Yu was stunned for a moment, and then his heart was filled with surprise. He took a deep breath and said, "Then I will rely on Brother Yun later."

Since Yun Jing has such means, why should he panic? Just as Yun Jing said, this was sent to his door on his own initiative. But having said that, Zhou Yu still felt a little embarrassed. It was originally his own business and he had implicated Yun Jing.

Jing didn't say anything, but she still had to count on him. It was so embarrassing after all the twists and turns.

Yun Jing said dumbly: "Why do you and I have to talk about this? Not to mention that I can't turn a blind eye to Brother Zhou's matter. As a scholar, it is already my duty to encounter similar situations."

He was not worried about anything happening at all. Yun Jing always had the mentality of meeting Zhou Yu and chatting, and then said: "The enemy has come to the door, and there is a breakthrough. Then Brother Zhou still needs to interrogate and collect evidence."

Help?"

"Haha, Brother Yun, you underestimate me too much. Solve the biggest problem and leave the rest to me." Feeling relieved, Zhou Yu smiled confidently.

He was not afraid of anyone using normal means and methods, but it was the enemies' unruly behavior that gave him a headache.

Intrigues and intrigues in official circles are normal, and it depends on everyone's ability and wisdom. But if you mess around without following the rules, you will break the rules once they appear, and you will become a public enemy of the entire circle, and no one can save you.

Yunjing and the others were chatting freely, but under Yunjing's control, their conversation was not spread beyond one meter.

The innate master in the lobby calmly ate a table of wine and food that the waiter quickly brought. There was wine and meat from who knows where, and the whole table was full. He was still very dissatisfied with this, and he didn't even think about it.

I don’t know how many people outside now don’t even have food to eat.

After finishing the meal, he wiped his mouth without intending to pay the bill. He picked up the long knife and looked in the direction of Yun Jing and the others.

Feeling that the trip was extremely easy, he walked over there slowly and said with a smile: "The victims outside are hungry and have no food to eat. Instead of asking, Mr. Zhou is in the mood to chat here. It's so elegant and sad.

"

Good guy, you put a big label on me when you first opened your mouth. It was clear that the person who came here was not good, but you were the first to speak slanderously and cast a shadow on me. This is really well-prepared.

"I don't agree with what you said, strong man. A pot of bad tea and two dishes of fried beans with salt are enough. What's the difference between what the victims eat? On the contrary, you, strong man, eat big fish and meat until your mouth is full of oil. Why would you ever think about extravagance and waste?"

More than half of the disaster victims? They don’t know it, and they use slanderous words to talk to each other, which is disgusting." Zhou Yu looked back at the other person and sighed.

As a scholar, the other party actually tried to be pretentious, which was simply humiliating himself.

The swordsman in black was not angry at all. In his opinion, why should he care about the words of the dying man? He chuckled and said: "Being an official and not doing anything, enjoying alone in the face of disaster is a waste of time. It's sad. I can't bear to look at it."

, a certain family has no choice but to eliminate harm in the name of justice."

This is a direct indication of the purpose of breaking one's face.

There was a cloud scene pressing down on the battle, but he was not afraid at all, and talked eloquently: "No matter how high-sounding the strong man's words are, he is just a traitor and traitor who assassinated the imperial official. Do you know the consequences of doing so?"

"Your Majesty, you are serious. You corrupt officials who only know how to enjoy themselves are no more than officials protecting each other. Why bother to kill a certain family for the sake of your name? If you kill a dog official, I will not tolerate you here. I can go anywhere in the world!" Hei

The swordsman said unmoved.

Zhou Yu sneered: "Killing officials is equivalent to rebellion. You can't escape even to the ends of the earth."

"Master Zhou is so courageous. He can still talk freely in front of me. I really admire him. Unfortunately, your end is already doomed." The swordsman in black shook his head and smiled.

Zhou Yu changed the subject and said: "It's useless to talk more. Since you have already made up your mind, how about letting me understand? Who sent you here?"

"Why did Mr. Zhou say this? A certain Jianghu travels all over the world to make his home. Who can give me instructions? I just can't understand the behavior of a dog official like you. I'm trying to frame you with falsehoods. Mr. Zhou is really evil-hearted. His heart is

That's a shame," the swordsman in black said with a smile.

Zhou Yu was not surprised at all when he failed to trick out the other party's words.

At this time, Yun Jing, who was playing with the tea cup, smiled and said: "Brother Zhou, I just said it's not necessary. I'm so tight-lipped. It's better to take him down for interrogation early in the morning and waste time in vain."

The black-clothed swordsman looked at Yun Jing, looked up and down, and asked Zhou Yu: "Why am I, Lord Zhou, so calm when you rely on him? Do you think too highly of him, or do you look down on me?"

Zhou Yu ignored the other party, but looked at Yun Dingding and nodded: "Brother Yun, it's going to be a long night and a lot of dreams, so I'll excuse you."

"It's easy to talk, it just takes a little effort," Yun Dingding nodded and smiled.

The black-clothed swordsman frowned, and when he was about to say something, the cloud scene in his eyes disappeared silently. Then before he could react, he felt a sharp pain in his abdomen, and the sea of ​​​​qi was broken.

My cultivation level was at a loss on the spot, and then I felt a sharp pain in the joints of my limbs, and the joints were all torn apart.

After destroying the black-clothed swordsman so that he had no resistance and no possibility of self-commitment, Yunjing said, "Go and come." After a while, there were a few bangs and bangs, and the four acquired men from all sides were scattered.

Later on, he also used the same method to abolish his cultivation and threw it in front of Zhou Yu.

After clapping his hands, Yunjing looked at Zhou Yu and said, "Brother Zhou, I'll leave the rest to you."

Not to mention how horrified the people who wanted to kill Zhou Yu were, Zhou Yu himself was deceived. So fast? So simple? What he originally thought was a narrow escape from death, ended up like this?

After a while, Zhou Yu took a deep breath and looked at Yun Jing and said: "Brother Yun's method really opened my eyes. No, I didn't even have time to react."

"Compared to Brother Zhou's hard work in governing, this little trick is nothing. Brother Zhou, it's time to get down to business. If you need help, just ask," Yunjing shook his head and reminded.

There was no time to talk about this anymore. Zhou Yu nodded and stood up and said, "I won't let Brother Yun down. Just wait patiently for my news for one night at most!"

Putting aside everything else, someone actually broke the rules and wanted to kill him. This alone is something that no one in the officialdom can tolerate.

With these assassins, it is not difficult to pry open their mouths. Never underestimate the methods of ordinary gentlemen and scholars. When scholars are reasonable, they can say anything. Only when they are unreasonable do you know what cruelty is!

With the breakthrough point in hand, it is only a matter of time before we follow the clues and catch all the people behind it.

Yunjing didn't have to worry about the follow-up. He smiled at Zhou Yu and said, "Then I'll just wait for the good news."
