An old man on the left hurriedly asked: "Although the master chose Zhou Fei, can he really represent the academy? Don’t forget, Zhou Fei’s mother used to be with the Emperor..."
"Speak carefully." Old Mrs. Zhou frowned: "The matter of your majesty and Zhou Fei's mother is not something we can comment on at will. Since the Master chose Zhou Fei, and Zhou Fei also proved that he can represent the academy, Zhou Fei's attitude This is the attitude of the academy. There is no doubt about this."
The other old people nodded at the same time.
"What was Zhou Fei's reaction to our approach?"
"calm."
Grandpa Zhou suddenly raised his head and looked at the ceiling, looking very worried.
"Under the calm appearance, I dare not say what is hiding. But the world is indeed changing. Winter is colder than a year, and summer is not hot. The world is undergoing changes that we cannot understand. Although I cannot judge the quality of this change, I can say that the emergence of this change is a great opportunity for us in Guanzhong County and the Zhou family."
When this remark came out, everyone was shocked.
Although it doesn't sound much at first, but you can taste it carefully, the huge amount of information hidden in the words of Old Lady Zhou.
"Now and in the future, we are still a knife in the hands of the Li family and a dog raised by the royal family. We still believe in girls, believe in temples, and believe in Zhiyue Guan. But whether it is in the imperial city or in Jialan, we are still There are no important people involved in the family."
Old Mrs. Zhou sighed, but quickly cheered up: "Although the current situation is very unfavorable for our Zhou family, we just need to wait and accumulate silently. When the opportunity comes, we will hold on desperately. Before that Any mistake may turn into a big and irreparable mistake, so I have to see Zhou Fei with my own eyes and determine the reaction between him and the academy."
"So, what was the result?" someone asked.
"Calm. Under the calm surface, indifference is hidden." Old Mrs. Zhou said: "I can feel that Zhou Fei has a feeling of indifference to everything around him. He is incompatible with this world, just like a spectator. This feeling is very mysterious. I can’t say that my feeling is right. Maybe it’s because of Zhou Fei.
I have some kind of illusion. "
Grandpa Zhou sighed: "Don't talk about this, can there be a response from the temple?"
"Yujiaolong... The High Priest Trustee of the Hall of Birth and Death expressed his gratitude to our Zhou family."
Grandpa Zhou nodded slightly: "She succeeded. It's a good start, isn't it?"
Someone suggested: "Perhaps we can use the temple to put some pressure on that Mr. Liu. At least let Mr. Liu know that the Zhou family in Guanzhong County has the same surname as him, and other aspects are completely different."
"It's not right." Old Mrs. Zhou looked at the person who proposed, and his old eyes became sharp: "I warn you, it's best not to think like this. The relationship between us and Chu Weihui is just a cooperative relationship, she is not Our Zhou family’s attachment, and we are only a stepping stone on her way up. If you really regard her as your own person, there will only be a dead end in the end."
"Similarly, there is a mountain in the academy."
"If the mountain doesn't fall, no one should want to conquer Datang."
An old man sighed with emotion and said: "The mountain has existed for too long. When my father was a child, the mountain was already there, but it was not majestic at that time. Wait until I change. As a child, that mountain has been incapable of being looked at directly. This situation has remained the same to this day. And it seems that it will remain for a long time."
The Zhou family grandfather said: "No matter how powerful people are, there will be a day when they are called back by the goddess. We just wait patiently. Even if you and I can't wait, our children and grandchildren can wait."
Someone said: "What if that mountain never arrives?"
The atmosphere is solemn.
After a long time, the grandfather of the Zhou family said: "No one can transcend life and death, not even a master. Okay, that's it for today, let go."
The old people slowly got up, bowed to the grandfather of Zhou's family, and then the servants who had been outside the door came in one by one, helping their master to leave.
Zhou's father and son did not leave in a hurry.
Mrs. Zhou sat on the chair, and Zhou Fan stood behind him.
"Father, the child courageously wants to hear the truth."
"What's the truth?"
"If that mountain doesn't fall, what shall we do?"
Grandpa zhou
Taking a breath, the smile on the corner of the mouth is a bit bitter: "Then be meek forever, even if there is more resentment in your heart, you should be courteous on the surface. This is the price we should pay."
Zhou Fan's expression was somewhat miserable, and he said, "My child is not reconciled."
"I'm not reconciled, but that mountain is too high, too high." Old Mrs. Zhou sighed: "In today's world, there is no one who can climb that mountain. Unless, the whole world is attacking the academy!"
The last five words, the old lady Zhou was squeezed out from between the teeth.
…
After meeting the grandfather of the Zhou family, Zhou Fei left Guanzhong County the next day, and did not leave with the envoy.
Guo Zhenying stayed as a guest at Zhou's house for a few days, and did not shy away from outside opinions.
After going forward for about three days, a river appeared in front of Zhou Fei's eyes.
A river that can't be seen on the other side at a glance.
This river divides Tang and Qin, and is a natural border line, each of which occupies half of the river. Even if it is crossing the river, ships from various countries can only travel to the center of the river, and then go to another big ship through the sampan.
Of course, this was before, after Li Hong ascended the throne, Tang's ships could sail directly into Qin's dock.
This is a symbol of strong national power.
Now, Tang's warship has docked by the river, waiting for the arrival of the envoys.
Zhou Fei could definitely board the ship in advance as Mr. Six of the Academy, but he did not do so.
Because before going out, Brother Er had emphasized two words.
rule.
The academy pays attention to rules, and you must maintain the rules of the academy on your own outside.
So Zhou Fei is waiting.
Wait for the arrival of the mission.
Fortunately, Guo Zhenying did not let him wait for a long time. One day later, the envoy came to the river.
For the first time, Zhou Fei met Guo Zhenying, a Confucian general who was famous for his tactics.
Guo Zhenying stepped forward and invited Zhou Fei and Ling Zhaoyan to board the ship.
After boarding the ship, Guo Zhenying invited Zhou Fei to the main hall of the warship.
Here, there are only the two of them.
Guo Zhenying said simply: "I am the queen's person."
Zhou Fei was taken aback for a moment.
He really didn't expect Guo Zhenying to be so simple, it was not like a general would say something.
