The two of them talked for a while more. Master Yuanjing looked tired and Han Yu took the initiative to leave.
"Rest early, Master. I will visit again tomorrow," Master Yuanjing said.
"The war has just ended. You must be busy. Don't worry about an old man like me. You can go about your business."
He asked Tang Yao to see Han Yu off. He washed up and got ready to rest.
However, it was destined to be a restless night. The guard at the corner door told him that there was a guest outside.
"What kind of mysterious guest is this?"
Master Yuanjing frowned. He didn't go directly to the front door. Instead, he went to the corner door sneakily.
The guard took out an object and handed it to Master Yuanjing. Master Yuanjing's pupils shrank after he saw it.
Master Yuanjing turned his wrist and held the object tightly in his palm. His knuckles turned blue because of the force.
"Ask that person to wait for me in the study. Lead him in quietly. Don't disturb the others."
Master Yuanjing's expression was a little strange. After the gatekeeper left, he released his clenched fist and revealed a jade Guanyin.
The jade was cold. There was a tinge of blue in the green. The green was pure and strong.
In the eyes of the common people, this kind of jade was not expensive. No matter how good the quality was, it couldn't be compared to other famous jade.
The aristocrats would never play with this kind of cheap stuff.
But Master Yuanjing knew that this kind of jade was called "jade." It was said that it was the most expensive and rare imperial jade!
He had learned about jadeite thanks to a young friend he had made despite the age gap.
"Gu Min …"
He murmured. Jade was very rare. It was produced in the southwest border. The local people didn't pay much attention to it. They wouldn't waste manpower to transport it to the five countries in the Central Plains. Only one person was interested. He happily played with the jadeite and secretly collected a lot of treasures.
"You don't understand. This thing will be rare in the future. If I collect it now, the future generations will definitely thank me."
Only Gu Min would use jade to carve a jade Buddha.
Who was the guest outside?
When the guest was secretly brought in, Master Yuanjing's eyes suddenly became sharp. He stared at the person.
Judging by the figure, the person was a teenager. His footsteps were heavy and messy. He probably didn't know any martial arts.
The person closed the door of the study and turned to Master Yuanjing. He took off his wide hood as he walked.
A delicate face was revealed after the hood was taken off.
The noble aura he exuded made him look like a pampered and spoiled son of an aristocratic family.
"My name is Liu Zhao. Master Yuanjing."
Liu Zhao?
Master Yuanjing's expression didn't change, but he understood.
The person who came with the jade Buddha was most likely a descendant of Gu Min.
Although Liu Zhao was the son of a concubine, his real identity was the legitimate son of Gu Min and Liu She.
Master Yuanjing faked a smile and said, "Why are you visiting me so late at night?"
For a moment, countless thoughts flashed through his mind, and he looked at Liu Zhao with a measuring and scrutinizing gaze.
As smart as he was, he could not think of the reason why Liu Zhao would look for him in the middle of the night. He was even more unwilling to think of a conspiracy theory.
"It is." Master Liu said. "He" Master, Yuanjing. "Master." Liu Zhao's expression was serious and his eyes were bright. There wasn't the slightest bit of frivolity in them. He said, "This matter is of great importance. I hope that you won't deny it."
Master Yuanjing said, "Tell me. For the sake of your mother, I will do my best to help you."
He didn't say anything. If Liu Zhao wanted to seize power, he wouldn't help him.
If it was something else …
Of course, anything that Gu Min's family got involved with was not a small matter.
Liu Zhao said, "Master, do you know that Liu Xi is not the real Liu Xi?"
Master Yuanjing said calmly, "I know. But so what? Do you want me to get rid of her? "
She was quite capable.
Monk Liaochen could see it. Of course, he could see that Jiang Pengji was extraordinary.
Although reincarnating in another person's body was quite scary, it was nothing to a fraud of his level.
Wei Ci's attitude and reaction were the key to his trust in Jiang Pengji.
He still remembered the first time he met Gu Min and the world she described.
But …
Only "Liu Xi" could create such a magnificent and beautiful world.
No, it should be said that he had replaced Liu Xi as an otherworldly person!
If Liu Zhao wanted to go against Liu Xi, Master Yuanjing wouldn't help him, even if he was the son of an old friend.
Liu Zhao shook his head and said in a low voice, "I've never had such a thought. She's my sister, and I really treat her as my sister. According to my dead mother, she's related to the fate of the world. She can't be touched. But I know who wants to touch her. "
Master Yuanjing was surprised. "Then why did you come today …"
"It's very important to me to touch my sister's people," Liu Zhao said. "I suspect that my father, Liu She, has been possessed by a villain. He's plotting something big. My real sister, Liu Xi, is missing. I'm here today to ask if there's a plan that satisfies both sides. "
Liu Zhao was greedy. He wanted to protect everyone.
Master Yuanjing's face darkened. He looked at Liu Zhao with a complicated gaze.
Liu Zhao looked like Gu Min. His personality … was similar.
"The world is the game, and the people are the pawns. You and I are pawns, but the person playing the game is the general. It's better if you don't get involved, "Master Yuanjing said solemnly. Mister Yuanjing said solemnly, "You saw what happened to the last person who tried to turn things around."
Liu Zhao's body trembled. His eyes widened.
Master Yuanjing heaved a long sigh. He could not help but reminisce.
The world was the game, and the people were the pawns.
How God cared for the people. It allowed an otherworldly person to support the dark world and lead everything in the best direction.
How cruel and heartless it was. It generously helped the people, but it was stingy and ignored a mother's smallest wish.
"Chun An, I beg you to think of a way … Can't you have the best of both worlds?"
The beautiful woman held the baby girl in her arms and cried to him. Her bloodshot eyes were swollen and full of despair.
"I can't have my cake and eat it too. There's nothing I can do …"
As soon as Master Yuanjing said that, the woman cried uncontrollably.
Knowing that there was a complete soul in her daughter's body, the woman's first reaction was not to be ecstatic. Instead, she was anxious and on the verge of losing control of her emotions.
She knew that her daughter had dementia and no soul. In the future, this body would welcome a powerful soul and obtain a new life in the truest sense.
What was the result?
Her daughter was born with a complete soul!
This meant that this daughter was a new life, and she was Gu Min's daughter.
How could she accept that after she raised her daughter for 12 years, her body was occupied by another destined soul?
That was her daughter!
If she did not do that, the Jiang Dynasty that should have been established would no longer exist, and the chaotic world that should have ended early would have continued.
If the chaotic world continued, there would be countless lonely souls and wild ghosts.
Even if the world was divided and united, the dynasty that was established was not the Jiang Dynasty.
Even if history would slowly develop, how long would it take to truly enter the developed modern era?
Five hundred years or a thousand years?
The Jiang Dynasty only used three hundred years!
When the Jiang Dynasty stood at the top of the world, other places were still backward and barren. There were endless wars, and the people were ignorant and ridiculous.
If the butterfly had the Jiang Dynasty, there would be many more innocent souls.
