My mother-in-law's eyes turned teasing.

Zuo Guangshu's face suddenly turned red and he hesitated.

But after hesitating for a long time, I couldn't figure out why.

Princess Yuyun of Dachu, however, stared at him, tilting her head and feet, looking this way and that, with a hint of disappointment in her tone: "There's no trace at all."

Zuo Guangshu was ashamed and annoyed: "Mother! What did you say!"

Xiong Jingyu seemed to have discovered a new world: "Oh! You really understand it!"

Then he sighed sadly: "Oh, the child has really grown up, but the mother is old."

"What are you old about?" Zuo Guangshu said angrily: "For a Shenlin monk, living for hundreds of years..."

The sound stopped suddenly.

He realized he had said the wrong thing.

It is normal for a Shenlin monk to live for only a few decades.

Such as his father.

For example, his brother.

Extraordinary power also means extraordinary responsibility and extraordinary commitment.

The reason why some people are unable to live safely until their end of life is because they give their stability to those behind them.

"Speaking of which," Zuo Guangshu said while holding his mother's arm, "I remember that the favorite food of the phoenix-striped ant is the golden-feathered impatiens flower, right?"

"Yes." Xiong Jingyu said cooperatively: "Every year, we spend a lot of money to buy some of Qi's famous flowers."

“Have you bought less in recent years?”

"It seems that their production is not enough. There is not much that can be distributed to us."

"I remember we had a fixed quota, and we were given a lot of money every year."

Xiong Jingyu smiled and said: "Although there are fewer flowers, the price has increased a lot."

"That was really a relief to my son."

"Silly boy. How can anything in this world remain unchanged? I heard that someone else has changed the decision over there."

"Oh. Like this..."

The mother and son just chatted and walked slowly on the path in the sunshine.

Sometimes time stands still, and sometimes it passes very real.

Some pain cannot be touched.

I thought about it once and cried once.

…

…

Huangliangtai.

See my building.

There were still the same people at the table as last time, but this time it was Chu Yuzhi who arrived late.

Although he was not close to the aristocratic family, he had good personal relationships with Zuo Guangshu and Qu Shunhua, and he could often come to Huangliang Terrace for a meal.

"I'm late. I'm sorry." As soon as he came upstairs, he apologized repeatedly.

"It doesn't matter." Qu Shunhua said with a smile: "We are not waiting for you anyway, we can find a seat by ourselves."

Today, Duke Yu did not sit in Huangliang Terrace, and everyone ate more casually.

Still sitting in the same position as last time, Chu Yuzhi looked left and right, and suddenly sighed: "The house is full of ministers!"

After the Duke of Chu, all the third-rank officials of Qi are indeed prominent.

Look at their radiance, eating the world's delicacies, and enjoying top-notch wealth. They get what they want in the mountains and seas... but where can't they get what they want?

It’s true that flowers adorn the brocade and luxury covers people’s homes.

"I'm not a minister." Ye Laner's eyes moved casually: "Why, was Dou Zhao discouraged?"

Chu Yuzhi did not expect that his emotions would be seen after he sighed casually, and for a moment he felt that Ye Lan'er was paying close attention to him.

Of course he knew that was an illusion.

The biggest misunderstanding of human beings is "she is interested in me".

Especially when this "she" is Ye Lan'er.

"That's not the case." Chu Yuzhi said with a smile: "I have already had psychological expectations about the gap between me and Dou Zhao, but now it's just a little more exaggerated than I expected... The road must be walked slowly.

"

"Then why are you sighing?" Yelan'er asked leisurely.

"The road... is too long," Chu Yu said.

The gap between Chu Yuzhi and Dou Zhao, and the gap between Zuo Guangshu and Qu Shunhua, is the gap between a common monk and a child of a top aristocratic family. It is far more than what is visible to the naked eye.

Those tangible and invisible gaps will take a long time and effort to fill.

I know I have to walk slowly, but this road is really too long...

This is the reason why a determined person like Chu Yuzhi couldn't help but sigh.

"I'm not a minister either." Jiang Wang said, "A few years ago, I was just a commoner. Now I don't think much different about myself."

Chu Yuzhi looked at him deeply: "Brother Jiang, you are not from Chu, you don't understand."

Jiang Wang heard the unusual meaning in his words, but he just smiled and said nothing.

But Chu Yuzhi seemed to be aroused by some kind of emotion, and he couldn't express his feelings well or speak smoothly. He looked at Jiang Wang, but not as if he was looking at Jiang Wang. He only continued: "The shortcomings of the Chu country have been accumulated for thousands of years, and they all come from aristocratic families.

beginning!"

This is too sudden.

This sentence was too sudden.

This attitude is too sudden.

This sound was like the sound of cracking silk and the sound of swords and guns, and the atmosphere in the place instantly changed.

Qu Shunhua sat upright and said expressionlessly: "Brother Chu, you are already drunk before you even drink."

Chu Yuzhi took the wine glass and held it tightly: "Yes, I'm drunk."

When friends get together, the atmosphere is really unpleasant.

When he was with Qu Shunhua, Zuo Guangshu was always the one who talked less.

But today, it was rare for him to take the initiative to look at Chu Yuzhi: "Brother Yu, Shunhua and I treat you sincerely. Why do you have to embarrass me suddenly in front of my brother Jiang today?"

Chu Yuzhi was silent for a moment and said, "Guang Shu, I'm sorry."

He pulled out his chair, stood up again, and said seriously: "Shunhua, I'm sorry."

He bowed his head and apologized one by one: "Brother Jiang, I'm sorry."

"Miss Ye, I'm sorry."

"I ruined everyone's fun."

He stood alone in front of the dining table, facing the table full of delicacies and the people sitting there, and spoke in a low tone: "It used to be a very happy thing for friends to get together to eat and drink together. I originally followed him.

It comes with the wish for everyone to be happy together."

"But I can't be happy."

"I really wanted to have a drink and have a good time with everyone, but I opened my mouth and couldn't come up with a nice word."

He stretched out his hand and pressed it on his heart: "I can't speak, and my heart is full of grief!"

Zuo Guangshu looked at him very seriously: "Brother Chu, if you tell me anything, there will always be a way to solve it. Do you have to act like this...?"

Chu Yuzhi looked at him, twitched his lips, and shook his head: "Brother Guangshu, I am not sad for myself. I am not hurting for myself."

"Do you know Xiao Shu?" he asked.

He said: "My good friend, Xiao Shu, a genius from the Dan Kingdom, has sacrificed a lot to participate in this mountain and sea trial. We invited 1,200 soldiers from the Mao Republic of China to block the central mountain.

I wanted to use this to negotiate terms with others and keep at least a share of the harvest. But as you know... I was chopped into pieces by Dou Zhao alone."

"I'm not here to complain or ask for sympathy. Nor am I trying to say how Dou Zhao is. His skills are inferior to others, so there's no one to blame. Sitting in a well and looking at the sky is our own problem."

"But."

Chu Yuzhi took a deep breath, and then said: "Before I went out, I just received a piece of news. Xiao Shu spent a lot of resources in the mountain and sea realm, but in the end he failed to gain anything, and his soul was damaged... He has been stripped of his participation in Yuanshi.

Danhui’s qualifications.”

"Alchemy is popular in the Dan Kingdom. This Yuanshi Dan Meeting is their most important ceremony. It is also a ceremony to train young monks and allocate important cultivation resources."
