Daqin Baizhisheng
Chapter 40
The light of the sky sprinkled down through the shadows of the clouds, illuminating the entire Xianyang City. The autumn leaves of the trees on both sides of the road had fallen, revealing bare new branches, swaying alone in the wind. It was late winter, and crystal snowflakes were falling in Xianyang City, and the city was white.
Counting the days, it has been more than three months since Ying Zheng returned to Qin. In addition to Bai Xiaosheng's daily lectures, the rest of the time was spent on catching up on Qin's national politics, such as how many counties and populations Qin had, and how many regulations were passed down from Shang Yang's laws...
And today, taking advantage of the rotation, Bai Xiaosheng was going to take Gai Nie to meet Ying Zheng. It was time for the descendants of Guigu to choose a master.
The shaking carriage moved slowly forward on the snow, followed by guards in front and behind. After all, now they are the prince's teachers, and pomp is necessary.
The carriage was very quiet. Bai Xiaosheng half-closed his eyes, and Gai Nie sat cross-legged beside him, with a sword on his knees, a little excited.
Bai Xiaosheng opened his eyes and looked at the heir of Guiguzi who was as motionless as a sculpture. He almost laughed out loud and said,"There's nothing to be nervous about. Ying Zheng is about the same age as you. Come on, little Nai Nie (don't hit me, Gai Nie in Jiuge is really very childish. Think about the time in Qin Shi Huang. What on earth did the uncle and Er Gou go through...), tell the boss about your tenth duel with Wei Zhuang."
Boss, employee. That's right, Gai Nie is now working in Bai Xiaosheng's store. The tiger skin has long been swallowed by Bai Xiaosheng, and the thousand taels of gold are naturally about the same. Alas... As the saying goes, a penny can make a hero fall. Money is not everything, but without money, nothing can be done.
""Sir, can you please stop calling me Little Nai Nie?" Gai Nie really couldn't accept this name, but his face looked a bit childish, so his objection seemed very weak.
""Okay, okay, Nai Nie.""
Okay, you can call me whatever you want." Gai Nie thought to himself, rolled his eyes, and was too lazy to pay attention to this boss who talked nonsense. Bai Xiaosheng lazily leaned on the soft cushion, and saw Gai Nie rolling his eyes, and burst out laughing. He wanted to tease him to ease his nervous mood, but he didn't expect that Gai Nie, a cold man, would also roll his eyes one day.
"A smile makes you ten years younger."Bai Xiaosheng touched his employee's head and said with a smile,"Don't be cold all day long. Only when you smile will girls be attracted to you."
Gai Nie avoided him with a wry smile. Somehow, he didn't feel any bad feeling when he was treated like this. He thought, this man is obviously young, but he speaks without limit. It sounds like he is laughing and scolding, but when you think about it carefully, it seems to have a deeper meaning.
As they were talking, the carriage arrived at a busy place in Xianyang City. It was noon and there were many pedestrians on the street. Ying Zheng was a prince, and Gai Nie was just an ordinary person. He could not enter the palace at will, so Bai Xiaosheng decided to meet at a restaurant called"Jinxianju". It is said that this restaurant was taken care of by Zhang Yi, the prime minister of Qin, decades ago, and it is somewhat related to Gai Nie.
"Do you know why I want to introduce you to Ying Zheng?" Suddenly, Bai Xiaosheng stood up straight, his aura became dignified, and his tone of voice also became solemn.
""Because you are Wang Zizheng's teacher?" Gai Nie replied softly with a rhetorical question.
Bai Xiaosheng shook his head slightly, looked at him firmly and said,"Because you are a lot like Ying Zheng, very much alike."
Gai Nie was stunned. He was just a fledgling swordsman, while Ying Zheng was a prince of the Qin Dynasty. There was a huge gap in their status and circumstances. He didn't understand how he and Ying Zheng were alike. Bai
Xiaosheng was silent for a while, then asked,"Do you know what the difference is between you and Wei Zhuang?"
Gai Nie shook his head blankly.
"Wei Zhuang can kill people to save people, which shows that he is very rational, but it also exposes his bottom line.
His bottom line is to do whatever it takes to achieve his goal.
He has no possibilities anymore.
"As he was speaking, Bai Xiaosheng's eyes suddenly became sharp and stared through the confused eyes of the young swordsman,"your bottom line has not been exposed.
You tried to save people but failed to save two people.
This shows that you still have principles.
When one day, you break your principles, no one knows what will happen...
including you and me.
"
Wei Zhuang has exposed his bottom line and has lost all possibilities. Gai Nie still has a bottom line, and there are still infinite possibilities in the future, but no one can guarantee that Gai Nie will be able to defeat Wei Zhuang by breaking his bottom line. It's just a possibility.……
"The same is true for Ying Zheng. He is a prince, but he has a different heart. He, like you, has infinite possibilities in the future."
Gai Nie was moved. Bai Xiaosheng's bottom line possibility was like a stone falling into his originally calm heart lake. Then, waves spread out, and the water waves became bigger and bigger, and finally became a surge, rolling in.
Oh~ The carriage stopped steadily in front of the Jinxianju gate. Zhang Han, who was driving the horse, lifted the curtain and led the two out of the car. Ying Zheng, who had been waiting in front of the door, came up to greet him.
Bai Xiaosheng introduced with a smile:"Come, this is the swordsmanship teacher that the teacher found for you - Gai Nie."
Gai Nie stepped forward and bowed, and greeted first:"Gai Nie meets His Royal Highness the Prince."
Ying Zheng hurriedly lifted him up and said with a smile:"I will trouble you, Young Master Gai, in the future."
