...

"Your Majesty, you can't just talk nonsense. If this is spread, our entire Li clan relatives will really be devastating..."

Listening to Li Shifang's terrifying remarks, Li Ka-ji was so scared that he was sweating profusely and hurriedly advised him to close his mouth.

But Li Shifang, who suffered a day of humiliation, seemed to have seen through everything and continued to speak: "Brother, the Lone King did not speak nonsense. Everything you confessed to is true. Now the Lone King just wants to ask you one thing, would you like to help the Lone King?"

Li Zhaoji was stunned for a while, looked at Li Shifang carefully for a while, and then asked in a low voice: "Your Majesty, how should you help you?"

"The Lonely King needs a sum of money, 50,000 guan!" Li Shifang said, "The Lonely King has contacted Liao Sanzhu, the first swordsman of the Li Kingdom. He is willing to assist the Lonely King in restoring the country and assassinating Liu Ce and Xu Liao, with the conditions being 50,000 guan.

But Gu Wang is now short of money, and the expenses in the palace are controlled by Concubine Li, so Gu Wang wants to ask you to fund some money.

Once Liu Ce and Xu Liao die, the mercenaries and Xu Liao headquarters in the city will be in a group of people. We can easily control the situation and restore the foundation of Li Kingdom!”

"It's so risky..." Li Zhaoji shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, it's not practical to put all your hopes on a killer. Moreover, Liu Ce and Xu Liao have tight guards, so there is no way to start.

Once he knew that it was the pusher we secretly did, there would be no room for maneuver, let alone even if Liu Ce and Xu Liao died,

Those mercenaries and the fierce Jizhou army will be in chaos like tigers and wolves who have lost their constraints. Are the Restoration Army really sure to quell these chaos?"

Li Shifang said confidently: "What my clan brother said is very true, so the lonely king ordered his loyal minister Choi In-hee to go to Yingzhou to seek help from Bai Zeman's army.

As long as Kashizawamaru's army arrives at Li Kingdom, the situation in Li Kingdom will be completely stable. Brother, the most critical step now is to need your help.

You must have hated Liu Ce to the core, right? Think about it, if he wants to marry your favorite Shanxiyuan to a barbaric land, don’t you want to tear him to pieces?

This is our only chance. Brother, are you willing to watch our Li clan clan sink and perish until it dies?"

When Li Shifang mentioned his daughter's name, Li Zhaoji felt like a knife cut. He gritted his teeth and thought for a while, and finally nodded and responded: "Okay, Master, I am willing to help you. I will prepare the 50,000 guan as soon as possible. When will I take action?"

Li Shifang thought for a while and said, "It will take about a few days. When the news about Han Zaixu's old general comes, the Lone King will order someone to contact Liao Sanzhu to act together."

"Can't you act immediately?" Li Ka-ji said anxiously, "Shen Xi is going to serve Su Shen people soon..."

Li Shifang sighed: "My clan, your situation is understandable, but the more we are, the more we need to calm down, there is only one chance,

Once we fail, we will not only lose our lives, but also lose all the foundation of the country's hundreds of years.

Shanxi is a good child. After the country is restored... the Lone King will do everything he can to rescue her from Sushen people..."

Li Zhaoji closed his eyes and pondered for a moment, pinching his fists tightly. When he opened his eyes, he nodded vigorously: "Then according to the words of the Lord, it's getting late. You should go back early to avoid Liu Ce and Xu Liao's suspicion..."

Li Shifang stood up with an excited expression on his face: "Okay, brother, after the country is restored, the Lone King will definitely recognize you as the first hero and take charge of the country of Li with me!"

Li Zhaoji shook his head: "Your Majesty, I don't care about these things. I just want you to rescue Shanxi from Sushen's clutches..."

"The Lonely King promised you!" Li Shifang nodded vigorously.

...

That night, on the corridor of Shouchang Palace and the side hall, Huangfu Zhai slowly walked towards Ye Yin's room with a bronze mirror in his hand.

Unlike in the past, a rare solemnity appeared on Huangfu Zhai's always calm face.

After pushing open the door, I saw Ye Yin sitting in front of the candlelight and carefully looking at the map of Liaodong, thinking.

Seeing Huangfu Zhai coming, Ye Yin quickly stood up and bowed and said, "Teacher, you are here, and I just happened to have some doubts and want to ask you for answers..."

Huangfu Zhai said nothing, and looked at Ye Yin's face carefully, with a hint of reluctance on his face.

"Teacher? What's wrong with you?"

Ye Yin felt that Huangfu Zhai seemed different from usual today, so he couldn't help but ask.

Huangfu Zhai shook his head slightly, looked at the Liaodong topographic map in front of Ye Yin's desk, and said slowly: "How is the research?"

Ye Yin replied: "From the map alone, you cannot find out too many situations. You have to go to the Sushen tribe to understand them. However, you already have a slight case in your heart, so please ask the teacher..."

Huangfu Zhai interrupted Ye Yin: "No need to say, I believe that your long trip can handle all the unexpected situations. You have grown a lot in the past year. As long as you experience some experience, you can become a qualified plan. I feel relieved..."

"Well... Thank you for your careful teaching this year, I won't remember it and remember it..." Ye Yin said with a slim swaying the Buddhist beads in his hand.

Huangfu Zhai looked at Ye Yin's face carefully again, and for a moment he was a little lost. He wanted to reach out to caress a little, but he stopped it and hung toward his slender wrist. He took the string of Buddhist beads and twisted it gently, then let go and took two steps back.

Although Ye Yin felt that Huangfu Zhai's behavior was a little strange, he didn't think much about it and looked up and said to him: "Teacher, the performance of the military governor today is really uncomprehensible. I have many questions in my heart and I would like to ask you to help me answer..."

Huangfu Zhai said: "He is very clear about what Liu Ce is doing. Every step he takes is under his calculations. You don't need to worry about him. As long as you complete the tasks he assigned you, that's enough..."

Ye Yin frowned and said to Huangfu Zhai: "Teacher, even though that is the case, the matter of life today is too unreasonable. I always feel uneasy in my heart. Can you please give me some tips..."

Huangfu Zhai put down the bronze mirror in his hand, turned around and pushed open the windowsill, looked at the bright moon in the air, and sighed and said to Ye Yin, "Ye Yin, do you know what the Mo family's philosophy is?"

Ye Yin frowned slightly and said without thinking: "Not attacking and loving, but aiming to stop the war, to realize the ambition of unity in the world..."

"We must treat everyone equally, whether to others or yourself, this is true, do you understand?" Huangfu Zhai asked.

Ye Yin replied: "I don't understand..."

Huangfu Zhai carried his back with one hand and continued, "The so-called equal treatment is simple to say, but it is extremely difficult to do it.

This kind of hardship does not come from external forces, but from oneself. If necessary, you must give up everyone equally, including yourself. This pain will gradually make people lose their nature and become another person.

But when you are about to become another person, it is the most painful time, because at this time you will feel confused and cannot see where your future path is.

If you want to get rid of this pain and suffering, you either turn yourself into another person or give up the idea of ​​treating everyone equally. No matter which one you choose, you will declare that your belief that you insist on has been shattered.

I ask you, if you get to this point of time that you make a choice, will you continue to persevere or give up immediately?"

Ye Yin closed his eyes and pondered, but it was difficult for him to answer Huangfu Zhai's question for a while.

"Is it right that I can't answer? I don't blame you, because no matter what choice you make, it is quite cruel, but you will eventually have the day when you have to make a choice,

It will not fade over time, it will only make people feel more and more painful..."

Huangfu Zhai clenched his fists tightly, and a very painful expression appeared on his face.

"Teacher, if it were you, how would you choose?" Ye Yin suddenly asked, "I don't believe that the teacher must have this answer..."

Huangfu Zhai replied lightly: "If possible, I will immediately choose to end my life and completely get rid of this torment..."

This sentence made Ye Yin a little surprised for a moment. She looked at Huangfu Zhai's back incredible way, and only felt that the back was carrying too much burden on her shoulder under the moonlight...

"As a wise man with a heart of the world, the most painful thing is the torment of conscience. You know it is wrong, but you have to implement this plan.

The most terrifying thing is that you will realize that everything you do is still futile and will even worsen the original situation, while others who don’t know the truth cannot understand you.

In this case, will you be unable to see through yourself more and more? Because it is a sentence of your own and a plan to determine a series of tragic students who could have been spared.

Will you repent for this after you have passed away, spend the rest of your life suffering from conscience and morality, and even want to kill yourself extremely?"

Ye Yin felt that Huangfu Zhai was very strange today. What he said made her feel extremely depressed and she couldn't help but start to worry about his mental state.

"Ye Yin, I said this to you today, hoping that you can remember that you should treat every life equally, including yourself, and give up equally, and..."

Huangfu Zhai said this, turned around and looked at Ye Yin, slowly walked to the table, took up the bronze mirror, pointed at her and said in a trembling voice.

"Are you treated everyone equally... Is it possible?"

Ye Yin was silent. This was the first time Huangfu Zhai had talked to him so seriously that she could not adapt to such a heavy topic.

"Um……"

I don’t know how long it took, Ye Yin responded heavily and agreed to Huangfu Zhai’s words.

Huangfu Zhai heard this and took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Ye Yin and said to her: "When you see the Sushen tribe leader, you will hand it to him personally.

Remember, you must not disassemble it privately halfway. If you let me know that you disassemble it halfway and observe the contents of the letter, the relationship between you and me will end here!

Also, no matter what setbacks and hardships you suffer in this trip, I hope you can endure it. I only have one requirement for you.

That is to come back alive and tell me all the details of living in the Sushen tribe!"

Ye Yin took the letter without doubting him, and said to Huangfu Zhai: "Teacher, I've just recorded it..."

"Get off early, don't be too busy, the journey to the northern border is not easy..."

Huangfu Zhai left this sentence, turned around and walked out of the door, and soon disappeared into Ye Yin's eyes.

"What's wrong with the teacher today?" Ye Yin looked at the letter in his hand, and was extremely puzzled.

In the corridor outside the door, Huangfu Zhai walked towards his room. When he passed by a reversing entrance, a sound echoed in his ears.

"Mr. Huangfu, are you too cruel? If the military governor knows it, the consequences will be unimaginable..."
