"On the verge of exploding." The old man chewed on this comment and said, "This phrase is not as good as' handling with ease '."
"At their age, how could they learn the essence of 'handling with ease'?"
"Wasn't Mo Qingdi young and promising back then? At that time, you were still a correspondent. When Mo Qingdi came to see me for the first time, I asked him what his hobbies were. He said drinking and writing. Kung Fu was only ranked third. I told him that I couldn't compete with him in drinking, and it was even more impossible for me to compete with him in kung fu. In the end, he wrote 'handling with ease' for me. Do you still remember his handwriting? "
"Yes. How could I not remember? " Zhang Jianjun smiled and said, "The chief even asked me to hang Mo Qingdi's calligraphy in my bedroom, and I've been studying it day and night. Later, the chief kept practicing 'handling with ease'. That must have something to do with him, right? "
"That's right." The old man nodded with a smile. "Mo Qingdi's calligraphy was really handling with ease. His strength was even, and his strokes were well-proportioned. He could make people feel his strength and bearing, and also show them the beauty of his form. After that, I often reflected that ruling a big country is like cooking a small fish, so I need to do it with ease. Both of them are good, but their hearts are too vicious and their personal grudges are deep, so it's not easy to use them. "
"But there's still a difference between them." Zhang Jianjun said with a smile. "Fang Yan's heart is vicious, but he's well-controlled and can control his emotions well. Not to say handling with ease, but at least he knows when to advance and when to retreat. Gongsun Qi's character is eccentric, and as Mr. Dragon God's disciple, his murderous aura is more intense. Perhaps it's his nature, his character is sharper, like an unsheathed sword. He doesn't hide it, and he doesn't hold back. "
The old man glanced at Zhang Jianjun and said with a smile, "Looks like you like Fang Yan more, right?"
Zhang Jianjun also smiled and said, "I have my own selfish motives. Fang Yan offered to drink with me, so I like him. "
"Hmm. Let's take a closer look. "The old man said with a smile. "Observe their words and actions. What we've got now is only a superficial conclusion. As for their nature, we can't make a decision yet. If we put them in such an environment, surely their nature will be more thoroughly exposed? "
"But isn't this too dangerous? They have never been on a mission before. "
"Danger?" The old man glanced at Zhang Jianjun and said, "In ancient times, the swordsmen learned the art of slaying dragons and sold it to the royal family. Nowadays, martial artists had to learn killing techniques to protect their country and their families. The way he said it was different, but the nature was the same. Whether it was in the past or in the future, these people with extraordinary skills are the pillars of our country. That is their responsibility, as it is ours. It's all for the sake of making people's lives safer and happier. "
"I understand." Zhang Jianjun nodded solemnly and said, "I will arrange this matter well."
"En. Go and rest. "The old man waved his hand and said," I'll look at the documents for a while. "
"I also have some documents to read." Zhang Jianjun said, "I'm in the small office outside. If you have any instructions, just call me and I'll come."
The old man ignored Zhang Jianjun and walked straight to the desk. He flipped open a red document and began to read it.
For people like them, there were countless decisions that needed to be made every day, and every decision was related to the people. They couldn't be the slightest bit careless.
The news that Jiang Junling had been banished from the Jiang family and his name had been struck off from the Jiang family genealogy had finally spread.
The news had first come from Jun Xiwen, and it was Fang Yan who had exposed this secret in front of everyone. Later on, someone had brought this matter to General Xing, and General Xing had replied with great certainty that this was indeed the case.
General Xing's attitude had instantly dispelled all the suspicions of the outside world. No one had expected that the Jiang family's old patriarch, Jiang Xifu, who had always been protective of his son, would act so viciously and mercilessly.
This could be considered the most exciting thing to happen in Yanjing in recent times, even suppressing the rumor that Qin Yitian was a mistress.
Thus, the other key person who had caused the old patriarch to make this decision had also been revealed through the mouths of those with ulterior motives: Fang Yan.
It was said that he had paid a visit to the Jiang family and eaten a bowl of dumplings that the old patriarch had personally made. Then, the old patriarch had straightforwardly kicked his own grandson out.
"Fang Yan?" Everyone slapped their heads in thought, feeling that this name was a bit familiar.
Very quickly, some smart people discovered that the Fang Yan who had caused Jiang Junling to be kicked out was the same person as the man who had interfered with Qin Yitian as a third party, Fang Yan.
Fang Yan!
It was Fang Yan again!
In a single night, Fang Yan had become an influential figure in Yanjing.
"Back then, he had a conflict with Jiang Junling!"
"That's right, that's right, back at the Maple Leaf Club, he had a direct conflict with Jiang Junling! I was also there!"
"I heard that back then, he had caused Jiang Junling to suffer a huge loss! Jiang Junling bore a grudge and chased him all the way to Huacheng three years later. I don't know what Jiang Junling had done in Huacheng for the Jiang family's patriarch to actually chase him out of the Jiang family! This Fang Yan must not be provoked, and I don't know what his background is either! "
"I just don't understand. For a woman like Qin Yitian, even if she wanted the stars in the sky, there would be people willing to pluck them down for her. Why would she want to be a man's mistress?"
One by one, the incidents where Fang Yan had made a name for himself in Yanjing were all dug out.
There were even people who had made a copy of the picture of him that he had posted on the school's famous teacher program when he was teaching at Rosefinch Secondary. When someone asked about it, he would open his phone and take out the picture of Fang Yan and say, "Here, this is it!"
Then, those who saw the picture would have a look of surprise and say that he looked very ordinary.
"In all honesty, how handsome can anyone's picture be? Do they have the guts to put their ID cards on the internet? "Hearing Xia Chen's description, Fang Yan said angrily.
Xia Zhi laughed so hard that he couldn't straighten his back and said, "That's right, when my friends said you weren't handsome, I answered them the same way!"
Seeing Xia Chen's happy appearance, Fang Yan couldn't help but laugh and said, "You've been busy lately, right? You look a little thinner, but you're in pretty good spirits. "
"Did I really lose weight?" Xia Chen happily said, "I've been using the fruit and vegetable diet method to lose weight recently. So it really worked? When I look in the mirror myself, I don't feel too obvious. I've been busy before, and I still am. But aren't you being a little too disloyal? You didn't even greet me when you arrived in Beijing? If Jiang Qin and Yuan Lin hadn't come back drunk, I wouldn't have known that they had already met you! "
"I heard you're going to participate in an event."
Xia Zhi rolled his eyes and said disdainfully, "Please, when will I not participate in an event? I have to participate in a lot of activities every day, okay? You just don't want to call me. You're afraid that I'll disturb your gathering with those two little girls, right? "Sigh, men these days all like the young. No one is interested in the old ones like me."
"I really don't have one." Fang Yan helplessly rubbed his nose and smiled bitterly.
Xia Zhi picked up the coffee in front of him and took a sip. He looked at Fang Yan and asked, "Fang Yan, how are you doing?"
"It's hard to say whether it's good or not." Fang Yan said with a smile, "It's hard to say, but at least I'm still alive. Let's just say that we're in danger every day. Don't look at us sitting together happily drinking coffee now. Maybe someone will come and kill me later. I'm not surprised that this happened. "
"It's not a good idea to always be like this." Xia Zhi sighed and said, "You dodged it once, you dodged it twice, but can you hide for the rest of your life?"
"What can I do?" Fang Yan asked.
Xia Chen thought for a moment, then gritted his teeth and made a difficult decision. He said, "How about, I bring you back to see my grandfather and tell him that you're my best friend. We'll beg him to speak softly to the old man of the Jiang family. My grandfather and the old man of the Jiang family have some friendship. If he is willing to step forward, perhaps there will be a turn for the better. "
Fang Yan looked at Xia Zhi with a face full of emotion and said, "Xia, for you to say such words proves that you sincerely treat me as a friend."
"Nonsense." Xia Zhi snappily said. "When did I not treat you as a friend? "You on the other hand, you forgot your friends and didn't even call me when you arrived in Beijing."
Fang Yan smiled but did not reply. He knew that if he were to tangle with a woman on this topic, he wouldn't be able to explain it clearly in three to five days.
"But there's really no need." Fang Yan said. "There was also another old man who brought me to visit Jiang Xi Fu. He also had the intention of speaking on my behalf, but he was unable to say the words. Jiang Xi Fu would rather banish his own grandson from the Jiang family than have any intention of privately reconciling. He is determined to fight to the death with me. "
"To offend such a huge monster …" Xia Xia looked at Fang Yan with a face full of worry and said, "You must be careful. I've lived in Beijing for so many years, but I still don't know how big the Jiang family is. I'm afraid even my grandfather doesn't know. It's really hard to feel at ease with such an opponent. "
"I'm not afraid of your jokes." Fang Yan smiled and said, "Even when I sleep, I open one eye and close one eye. I'm afraid that if I accidentally fall asleep, I won't be able to open my eyes again."
"Even when you sleep, you turn a blind eye. That's because you've done too many guilty things, right?" A young man stood behind Fang Yan and said in a hostile voice, "Fang Yan, why aren't people like you dead yet? How can you still be alive?
Fang Yan spread out his hands towards Xia Zhi and helplessly said, "Look, I was right. Trouble will come knocking at your door at any time."
