Hidden Blade Chapter 50: Good people bad people
The twelfth lunar month will end.
Chang'an city is full of lights and colorful scenes in the prosperous age.
The Great Week of this year ushered in the first bumper harvest in nearly two decades.
Of course, they attributed this achievement to the Yuwen Nanjing who is known as the emperor of the ages, and the support of this female emperor among the people has already reached the point of enthusiasm.
The status of Tiance Mansion, which supports the new emperor's head, is naturally rising. Coupled with the momentum of echoing the Qingshan horns of the Jizhou Mujia army, it now has a status of less than 10,000 people in the Great Zhou Dynasty.
"Sister Ye, what are you doing? The fireworks are set off outside, why don't we go and take a look?" The young man with a long sword walked up to the girl in red who was sitting in the main hall of Tiance Mansion and asked.
The young Palace Master Tiance Mansion still has that beautiful and moving appearance, but the deep fatigue between his brows can't hide it.
Before the boy arrived, the woman seemed to lower her head to think about something, staring blankly in front of her, until the boy's voice sounded, she sat up straight as if she had just awakened from a dream.
Then, the woman squeezed a smile on her beautiful face and said: "Go and see, I want to take a break."
"Oh." The teenager who got such an answer replied without sorrow or joy, but did not leave. Instead, he sat quietly on a side chair, frowning without saying a word.
Ye Hongjian was taken aback, looked at the young man in a puzzled way and asked: "Why don't you go to see it?"
It’s the New Year. Whether it’s the fireworks and firecrackers organized by the people themselves, or the dragon and lion dances sent by the court, it’s a rare lively scene. Children such as Liu Mo and Liu Xiao went to the streets of Chang'an early to wait. It was lively, and the young man in front of him seemed a little out of tune with them.
The boy surnamed Su frowned a bit deeper at that time, and said: "I don't like Chang'an. It's not good here, people are not good, and the land is not good..."
Speaking of this, the boy seemed to feel that something was wrong. He hurriedly looked at Ye Hongjian who was sitting on the high platform and said: "I didn't include Sister Ye, I just...just..."
At that time, the boy's voice gradually became low, and the look on his face also became a little lonely and confused: "I just don't understand why..."
Ye Hongjian looked at him like this, a little funny, but also a little distressed.
Probably the more kind a person is, the less able to live in such a glamorous place on the surface and a place that has already been ruined inside. This is not hypocrisy or incompatibility, but difficult coordination from the soul.
At this moment, Ye Hongjian was inexplicably envious of the boy's clean soul.
"Since I don't like it so much, why do you want me to see it?" Ye Hongjian laughed, trying to make the boy's depressed mood a little better, "Could it be that you have never heard of doing what you don't want to do?" To others?"
Speaking, Ye Hongjian intentionally showed an angry expression on his face.
"It's not, it's not." The boy with a chord in his head suddenly panicked, waved his hands and said, trying his best to explain his meaning to Ye Hongjian, but he was not good at it after all, and he was slurred. After talking for a long time, I didn't say why. "I just watched Sister Ye's unhappy these few days, so I thought that if Sister Ye went to see the fireworks outside, I might be in a better mood..."
Speaking of this, the boy seems a little guilty of suggesting that Ye Hongjian go to see something that he doesn't even want to see. At that time, his head was lowered, like a child who made a mistake, frightened. Waiting for the punishment from the parents.
His appearance made Ye Hongjian, who was still tense, burst into laughter.
The girl shook her head, a smile appeared on her face, and said: "Let’s go, let’s take a look."
"Huh?" The boy was taken aback for a moment, with a dazed expression. He didn't seem to adapt to the sudden change of Ye Hongjian's attitude for the first time.
"Buy you candied haws?!" Ye Hongjian smiled slyly.
These words undoubtedly poke the pain points of the boy who has just turned fifteen years old. The boy who recovered his mind never thought about him anymore, and followed the pace of Ye Hongjian's departure.
......
Boom!
With a huge boom, fireworks were sent to the sky and exploded in the sky, bursting into bright fireworks.
The crowd began to jubilate.
The people’s faces are filled with happy smiles, for this coming New Year and for the harvest of the past year.
Above the crowded crowd, Ye Hongjian and Su Mu'an sat side by side on the roof of the Tiance Mansion Hall.
The boy ate the good candied haws and looked at the splendid fireworks in the sky, blinking and blinking.
After all, it is the child's disposition. After all, it is inevitable to be attracted by such a scene, and in a blink of an eye, he forgets the previous remarks in the hall.
"Is it delicious?" Ye Hongjian couldn't help asking, looking at him like this.
"Yeah." The boy nodded, eyes curled up, obviously enjoying the delicious food in his mouth.
"Could it be that they deducted your monthly cash? How come you haven't eaten it in a long time?" Ye Hongjian couldn't help laughing while watching Su Muan's mouth full of sugar.
The boy waved his hand solemnly and said: "No, the monthly amount of money is not less. But Brother Xu said that no matter how delicious things are, eating all the time will become dull, so, I can’t help it until I’m not going to buy it myself."
"Really?" I don't know if it's because of the three characters of Big Brother Xu, that made Ye Hongjian's somewhat relaxed look suddenly lonely at that moment.
The boy who realized that he had said the wrong thing wanted to say something to comfort him, but he swallowed it back somehow when the words came to his lips.
He gritted his teeth and groaned for a long time before asking: "Sister Ye, I always have a question, I don't understand..."
Ye Hongjian, who came back to his senses, put a smile on her face and asked: "What's the problem?"
"You said that Big Brother Xu is a good person, and Grandpa Deer is also a good person."
"But not every good person can do the right thing, so Grandpa Lu drove away Big Brother Xu..."
"Then why Zhu Xian is obviously a bad person? He killed my father and killed many other people. Then why, sister Keqing wants him to be an official again..."
This question stunned Ye Hongjian.
A few days ago, the female emperor Yuwen Nanjing pushed the already-lost Zhu Xian back to the first seat of Changyesi. Although Zhu Xian still could not have the capital to compete with Tiance Mansion in a short time, he did so. The practice drew dissatisfaction from the Mujia army stationed on the border in Jizhou. On Mu Qingshan, the memorial to impeach Zhu Xian from the imperial court flew to Chang'an one after another.
Mr. Lu, who is actually in power of Tiance Mansion, played several times in conjunction with the veterans of the court. But Yuwen Nanjing, who had always listened to them, is now like a different person. He doesn’t mean to let go. But at this moment, Mr. Guan Lu and others are still kneeling outside the palace, begging Yuwen Nanjing to take it back...
Ye Hongjian frowned at the thought of this.
After the Chang'an changes, she was initially distracted by the affairs of the court. Although she was nominally the head of the Tiance Mansion, the real power was largely in the hands of Mr. Lu and others, and she had no intention of this. It's a matter of letting it go.
It’s just that Qin Keqing’s recent situation is quite abnormal. She was aware of this very early, but she couldn’t catch the point for a while, and the fact that Zhu Xian was used was a good proof of her previous worries. Not an imagination.
So, she could only shook her head and said: "I don't know..."
"Maybe everyone will change..."
"What do you mean? Does it mean that Sister Keqing will become a bad person?" Su Muan asked in a puzzled manner, but there was a little more worry between his brows.
Ye Hongjian laughed blankly.
She stood up, looked up at the fireworks that continued to bloom in the sky, and said: "The definition of good and bad does not apply to the world of adults..."
"Every one of us is a good person..."
"They are all bad guys..."
"Is that so?" Su Mu'an was a little dumbfounded. Of course, he couldn't understand the meaning of Ye Hong's words. He just felt that the other party seemed to have some truth in what he said, but he felt that the truth was not enough to convince him. .
"I think Sister Ye is wrong..." His straight temper recurred, and he looked at Ye Hongjian seriously at that time.
"Why is it wrong?" Ye Hongjian asked with a smile, looking at this boy who seemed to tell her right and wrong with interest.
"You said that some people are bad and good, I think it makes sense..."
"Like Grandpa Deer, he seems to have done a lot of good things and helped many people, but I just can't like him. I think he is the kind of person you are talking about..." the boy frowned and said . It seemed that he was trying to make his words sound convincing enough, and he spoke intermittently, as if trying to find suitable rhetoric to explain his point of view.
"But some people are good people, no matter how they look at them, they are good people." The boy said so, with a serious expression on his face.
"For example?" Ye Hongjian asked a little amused.
"Big Brother Xu!" The teenager answered without thinking~IndoMTL.com~ Ye Hongjian was taken aback when she heard the words, and then she shook her head helplessly, and pointed to the boy and said, "You, you just got washed away by Xu Han's helplessness. If you think about it, he just wants you to kill and set people on fire. You have to draw your sword forward without thinking."
It’s just who knows that what was meant to be a ridicule fell in the boy’s ears, and the boy’s face changed suddenly, and he mumbled rather uncomfortably: "That’s not the case!"
"..." Seeing that he was a little angry, Ye Hongjian put away his thoughts of continuing to laugh, and asked: "Okay, okay! Then you tell me why your Big Brother Xu must Is a good person?"
This question really puzzled Su Mu'an. The boy tilted his head and thought for a long time, scratching his ears, and frowning. After a long time, he said, "I don't understand..."
"Probably because of..."
"He has never let down anyone who shouldn't be let down..."
"I don't think such a person would be a bad person in any way..."
