The First Cause of All Realms

Shasha~

Sparks rubbed between the sharp goose ling knife and the sharpening stone.

In the small courtyard, Qiu Zhanyu, who hadn't slept all night, flicked the blade of the blade, and with the crisp and long sound of the blade, he returned the blade to the sheath, and stood up expressionlessly.

"Master Qiu?"

"grown ups!"

"Master Qiu."

In the government office, a group of swordsmen and pen officials greeted respectfully, but they didn't get a response, and they avoided it in surprise.

After days of heavy rain, the air in the government office became very good, and there was no longer the stench of the past. Qiu Zhanyu strode to the backyard.

He was originally full of resentment, but when he saw the old man writing at the desk, his voice softened and he called out:

"Boss."

Compared to the month before, Xu Wenji's demeanor became more and more old, and the arrival of the eagle made him even more tired.

"Xiaoqiu, do you know why this old man has to obey the rules?"

Xu Wenji put down his pen and rubbed his temple lightly, with deep exhaustion in his tone.

"The rules have to be taught, but some people don't obey the rules, why do we have to obey the rules?!"

Qiu Zhanyu said in a cold voice, his eyes were a little red.

He and Qi Gang, Cao Jinlie, and Qian Jinge were the same group of Jinyiwei who entered the industry. They had been classmates in the same place for more than ten years.

Even in the face of Xu Wenji, there seems to be no respect in the past.

"When I was young, I used to be a head catcher in Yunzhou. At that time, I always had doubts in my heart, doubts about the rules."

Xu Wenji slowly got up, walked in front of the window with his hands behind his back, looked at the distant mountains that seemed to have a little benefit after the rain, and said with a sigh.

"The merchants are very rich, why don't they charge heavy taxes?"

"The peasants are poor and weak, why do corvés add their bodies?"

"Jianghu warriors, why don't you add security?"

…

Qiu Zhanyu listened with an expressionless face. Naturally, he couldn't answer this question, and he had no intention of answering it.

Fortunately, Xu Wenji was not asking him, and quickly answered.

"It wasn't until later that the old man understood the deep meaning of Taizu."

Xu Wenji turned around and looked at the high official Jinyiwei with a calm expression:

"Businessmen are very important, and they cannot be allowed to have high positions. Otherwise, no one will be willing to farm and work, and farmers will be poor and weak, so they must be given the same level of entry into the imperial examination as a scholar."

"Warriors in the rivers and lakes, if they violate the ban by force, they cannot easily recruit security. Otherwise, there will be a large number of strong gangsters who only know how to fight and kill, so-called heroes and celebrities."

"I…"

Qiu Zhanyu wanted to refute, but he didn't know how to refute. This seemed to be true, but it made him feel very uncomfortable.

"If the court is middle peasant, then the farmers can feel at ease. If the court is middle peasant, it will benefit morality, and the people's customs will be corrupted."

Xu Wenji said:

"This old man has lived for decades. Although he is not a great person, he is still in the seriousness of countless people. If I rely on the authority in my hand, I will kill, kill officials, and dismiss the state head without any evidence.

They have an excuse. "

Speaking of this, Xu Wenji looked a little desolate:

"If officials are messed up and everyone learns from it, they don't pay attention to the rules and evidence, and kill whoever they want to kill, what kind of situation would that be?"

"That…"

Qiu Zhanyu was startled, but he immediately reacted: "The boss is alarmist, how could it be..."

"The king likes to have a slender waist, and most of the palaces starve to death. Although this old man is not a role model in the world, he must guard against the slightest in the end."

Xu Wenji said calmly:

"If those who violate the law do not die, but occupy a high position and are imitated by others, then the law, the court, and the country will die."

"Thunderbolt is something that Tiangong Institute has not developed for a long time, and the number is not large. In this land of Qingzhou, there are only two people who can mobilize a large number of thunderbolts that can blow up mountains!

Since there is no one in the army, it must be Nie Wendong! "

Qiu Zhanyu's eyes turned red, and he gritted his teeth:

"Whatever you say, today, Qiu is going to move him, so what if you kill him first and then play it?!"

Jin Yiwei has the right to be executed first and then to file, but that was at the beginning of the founding of the country, and it was more limited to the capital, where the sky was high and the emperor was far away. No emperor dared to give his subordinates the right to be executed first and then file.

But he couldn't contain the anger in his heart.

There was no news of casualties before, and he was still lucky, but at this time, when he heard that Qi Gang and others might be wiped out, he couldn't bear it any longer.

"coming."

Xu Wenji suddenly spoke.

"Who?"

Qiu Zhanyu was stunned for a moment, and then he noticed something.

Huhu~

The swift wind blew into the government office, and several Longyuan guards filed in, hurried forward, and stepped into the backyard under the amazed and awe-inspiring eyes of the officials.

"Boss!"

Several Long Yuanwei bowed down condensedly.

"Take a look."

Xu Wenji pointed to several files held by Long Yuanwei.

"This is?"

Qiu Zhanyu's heart skipped a beat, and he stretched out his hand to take the dossier: "This is the dossier that Nie Wendong violated?!"

"His methods are ruthless and cruel enough to cut off his head and tail, and he can hardly catch his sore feet..."

Xu Wenji rolled up the scroll on the case and stepped out:

"But if you want people to not know, you must do it yourself!"

call!

Qiu Zhanyu raised his head, his expression was excited, he grabbed all the files and stuffed them into his arms, and followed with great strides.

Several Long Yuanwei followed.

Xu Wenji walked out of the backyard slowly, and the officials in the government office immediately noticed the unusual atmosphere, but before they could ask questions, Qiu Zhanyu waved his hand, and many soldiers stepped forward and controlled everyone.

"Everyone please wait here!"

Qiu Zhanyu glanced coldly at everyone and followed with his knife.

Following Xu Wenji's footsteps, Qiu Zhanyu discovered that the old man had obviously been prepared for a long time. When he left the backyard, he was accompanied by a few Long Yuanwei.

When they got to the front yard, more than a dozen people followed.

"Boss, do you want to send someone here?"

Qiu Zhanyu lowered his voice.

"No need."

Xu Wenji shook his head.

Qiu Zhanyu was startled and wondered, with just this amount of people, can he take down Nie Wendong?

He has been in Qingzhou for many years, and he knows how powerful Nie Wendong is. With the help of the power of the imperial court, he has recruited many martial arts masters for decades.

Dragon Tiger Wind and Cloud is just a guard on the bright side.

"Old, old man!"

When Xu Wenji walked out of the mansion, a black-faced and thin soldier stepped forward with a letter in both hands.

"You are this?"

Xu Wenji took the letter: "Resignation?"

He looked at the soldier in front of him. He had an impression of this young man. At first, he was a post soldier, and then he followed him. He was also conscientious and hardworking.

"I'm here to say goodbye to the boss. Although, although I am just a small soldier, I came with the boss. I have to say a word when I leave..."

Seeing Xu Wenji, Li Chuang was a little nervous, but thinking of someone, he gritted his teeth and said:

"Li Chuang doesn't want to just guard a city gate, the world is so big, I also want to go for a walk and take a look!"

He said these words like a drum, and he was anxious and hopeful.

Will the old man save himself?

Will you blame yourself?

"Li Chuang, you must know, Mr. Xu..."

Qiu Zhanyu was about to speak, but Xu Wenji stopped him.

"Your words, the old man accepts."

Xu Wenji took out the seal he carried with him, printed it on the letter he handed over, and returned it to Li Chuang, saying:

"But the letter, you keep it. One day, if you want to come back, come back. Even if the old man is not there, there will always be a place for you."

After all, turn around and leave.

"Boss..."

Looking at the thin and old figure, Li Chuang felt a little sour and moved. But thinking about that person, his heart suddenly became hot, and he turned around and returned to the Spring Breeze Building.

Then…

Looking at Lin Daoren who was standing in front of the window and overlooking, alone, Li Chuang felt as if a basin of cold water had been poured down, and his heart was half cold.

"It's a good show, the classmates are fighting, it's a pity..."

Looking at the south of the city, Lin Daoren shook his head slightly, turned and said:

"Let's go."

"Go, where?"

Li Chuang felt extremely lost in his heart.

"Go find a few people and ask a few words."

Lin Daoren's footsteps paused slightly, as if penetrating his mind, he said lightly:

"You are worthy of her now?"

When Li Chuang heard this, he felt even more sad:

"Qin, where did Senior Sister Qin go?"

"go…"

Lin Daoren shook his head slightly, thinking about the anxiety of his grandniece before, and sighed:

"Probably to... pay tribute to a friend."

…

…

Chengnan Mansion.

Even if the state owner seems to have lost power, there are naturally a lot of guards, and there are many masters among them. However, seeing Xu Wenji from a distance, except for a few people who were scared and dared not move, everyone else dispersed.

Either there was a notification, or they simply avoided other courtyards.

Along the way, there was no resistance in any sense. All the guards, servants, and maids were taken down, and few dared to resist.

In the past two months, the entire Deyang Mansion was cleaned by Xu Wenji. Although it was not as exaggerated as the rumored 'everyone with flesh on their faces', but the heads of the killings were still rolling.

Which of these guarding guards dares to stop them?

It was not until they reached the front hall that they were stopped by the two of them.

"Fengyun Erwei."

Qiu Zhanyu held the handle of the knife lightly, and his eyes were cold:

"Nie Wendong's crime is unforgivable, are you going to go to prison with him?!"

"My lord misunderstood."

Fengyun Erwei smiled slightly, got out of the way, and bowed to make an invitation:

"Several adults please, my master has been waiting for a long time."

"Let's go."

Qiu Zhanyu was stunned, but Xu Wenji looked calm, as if he had expected, and stepped into the front hall.

The front hall is huge, so big that if the lights are not lit during the day, it will be a little dark.

On the left wall, hung a large unfinished painting scroll, about a foot away from the left and right. Nie Wendong fell down with one hand and splashed ink.

There were two people standing beside him.

One of them was an old monk wearing a monk's robe, and the other was dressed as a scholar, sitting and drinking tea. When he saw Xu Wenji, he got up and saluted:

"Student Yang Xuanying, I have met Mr. Xu."

Xu Wenji was indifferent and looked at the wall.

It is 10% of the unfinished paintings, but the outlines are also seen for the first time. There are distant mountains, forest scenery, big sun and white clouds, pedestrians in the city, and more, but they are all kinds of human beings.

There are traders and pawns rushing around, soldiers and yamen guards maintain order, cooks cook porridge under the shed, and more are starving people with dry body and dark complexion.

It is the present Deyang Mansion.

Snapped!

Nie Wendong put down his pen, turned to look at Xu Wenji, and smiled slightly:

"Brother Wen Jiwu, how did you draw this picture of 'Deyang All Beings'?"
