The Sims: I Create a Fairy Way For All Beings

"Hehe?" Gu Ji glanced at Pei Xuanjing with a smile, "Isn't it just for this reason that you came here this time?"

With his sophistication, how could he not know the purpose of Pei Xuanjing's visit today.

Pei Xuanjing was not embarrassed to be exposed, and said with a cheeky smile, "I hope Brother Gu can give me some advice."

Gu Ji originally intended to point out the other party, but did not delve into the matter, and said, "Do you know who is behind the compilation of the 'Martial Arts' this time?"

Pei Xuanjing was puzzled, "Isn't it the emperor?"

"Hehe, yes, and no!" Gu Ji took a sip of tea before saying, "On the surface, this matter seems to be His Majesty's idea, but in fact it is pushed behind by the Xungui family. It can be said that this matter is wrestling. The two sides are not just the imperial court and those top forces, but also the struggle between the line of civil servants and the line of nobles."

"I would like to hear the details..." Pei Xuanjing took the initiative to pick up the teapot next to him and refill Gu Ji's tea.

Gu Ji didn't hide anything, and told the reason...

Since the founding of the Ming Dynasty by the Taizu Emperor, all the meritorious officials who followed him to fight the world canonized as nobles, hereditary, and used to check and balance the court with civil servants.

Even though many members of the Xungui family were cleaned up in the later years of the Taizu, there are still many Xungui people left, and this is the origin of the Xungui family.

Later, Emperor Taizong launched an army Jingnan and conferred many nobles, and Emperor Taizong's five expeditions to Mobei swept the grasslands. During this period, many people made great contributions, and many others were canonized.

By the time of Emperor Xuanzong, the power of the Xungui family reached its peak, and the nobles and officials in the court were almost out of breath for the Xungui family.

However, as the saying goes, prosperity and decline, later the famous Yingzong succeeded to the throne, and a civil fortress lost all the power of Xungui's line of praise. The lineage of Xungui became weak, and some even died of heirs.

When talking about this Yingzong, a bit of sarcasm appeared on Gu Ji's face.

This is really a cub who doesn't care about Tian Tian, ​​​​and completely ruined some of the foundation accumulated by his ancestors.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the Civil Service Department not only stood up again, but even took the opportunity to infiltrate the territory belonging to the Xungui Department, taking a lot of power that originally belonged to the Xungui Department.

Gu Ji even had some dark guesses in his mind, whether there would be some unspeakable big shots involved in the defeat of the Tumubao back then, which would have caused Xungui to decline since then.

Of course, he didn't mention these conjectures to Pei Xuanjing, no matter how he belongs to the line of civil servants, he won't expose his shortcomings.

Since then, the civil servants have completely put Xungui under their feet, and the situation between Wenchen and Xungui has been reversed.

Having been bullied for so many years, Xungui naturally refused to admit defeat and wanted to regain his own power.

It just so happens that the current emperor is different from the previous emperors. This one loves martial arts and military affairs. He has the style of Emperor Taizong.

This allowed the Xungui family to see the hope of rising again, and this time the compilation of the "Martial Arts" was a test and the first step of their plan.

"So, the compilation of the 'Martial Arts' is a big trouble." Pei Xuanjing said.

Gu Ji nodded, "Naturally. With the power of the imperial court, how can there be no manpower to compile the 'Martial Arts'? If it is really that simple, no one can be found anywhere."

With the power of the Ming Empire, not to mention anything else, there are many things that are enough to participate in the compilation of the "Martial Arts" from the offerings of the royal family and the offerings of various vassal kings.

And the reason why this incident became widely known was to deliberately scare the snake and test the reaction of the civil servants.

Pei Xuanjing frowned slightly, he felt that his thinking was too simple.

Originally thought that this was the imperial court's test of the major forces in the world,

But I didn't expect this to be a struggle within the imperial court, not only the nobles and civil servants, but also the struggle between the imperial power and the civil servant group.

To be honest, Pei Xuanjing already somewhat regrets participating in this matter. It is difficult for him to make a big difference as a third-rank warrior in this kind of struggle. If he can have the strength of a rank, he might be able to gain some right to speak.

To put it bluntly, in the final result of this matter, the losing party may have to pay a huge price, and the one who does not kill the head is considered light.

"But you regret participating in this matter?" Gu Ji seemed to have seen through Pei Xuanjing's thoughts.

Pei Xuanjing smiled wryly, "I do regret it a bit, but it's a pity that I can't get away now."

He knew that from the moment he entered the Heavenly Capital, he was already involved and could no longer get out.

"That's right, you can't escape now." Gu Ji nodded.

Now if Pei Xuanjing wanted to withdraw, it would definitely attract a thunderbolt from the Xungui family, because they would absolutely not allow anyone to shake the morale of the army at this time.

"Then have you thought about what to do next?" Gu Ji asked.

Pei Xuanjing thought for a while and said, "Be low-key and protect yourself wisely."

This is the best way he can think of so far.

He has already made up his mind, wait for a while, as long as he accumulates praises as soon as possible, and performs life simulation to improve his strength, so that he can have more self-protection ability in this matter.

Gu Ji nodded, "It's really good. But can you ensure that you keep a low profile so that trouble won't come to your door?"

"Um?"

Pei Xuanjing's hand holding the teacup froze.

Indeed, sometimes things do not depend on the will of the individual.

I want to keep a low profile and not cause trouble, but it doesn't mean that trouble won't come to my door.

"Hehe, Xuanjing. The first thing I want to teach you when you enter Tiandu City is that you can be gentle, but you can't be too low-key." Gu Ji's face straightened, and he spoke solemnly to Pei Xuanjing.

You can be gentle, but not too low-key?

Pei Xuanjing was a little puzzled, "I also ask Brother Gu to give me some pointers."

If you don't understand, you have to ask, Pei Xuanjing never thought that he knew everything and could do everything.

Especially in this heavenly capital, where there are hidden dragons and crouching tigers, all kinds of people will exist.

And when it comes to martial arts, Gu Ji is not as good as himself.

But in this way of dealing with the world, means and strategies, compared with these officials who have been up and down for decades, he is simply a world of difference.

Seeing Pei Xuanjing humbly asking for advice, Gu Ji nodded.

If the other party can't listen, he won't mention this matter again, because it doesn't make any sense.

Since Pei Xuanjing could listen, he didn't hesitate to give advice to the other party.
