Chapter 865: The Debate of Merits and Demerits, Right and Wrong
Chapter 865: The Debate of Merits and Demerits, Right and Wrong
Wang struggled for a few times like a salted fish, and finally succeeded in sitting up.
He did not go back to find a chair to sit down to maintain his dignity. Instead, with a somewhat self-abandoned attitude, he just sat on the ground facing the Taifu and the others.
"Now that things have come to this, I have nothing to say. What grudge do you have against me... No, do I have any grudge against you?"
Wang suddenly realized halfway through his words: "I played chess with the Grand Tutor and some things happened, but what does this have to do with the rest of you?"
Liang Xun and the others were already prepared, but were all stunned by Wang's sudden question.
Only the Grand Tutor frowned silently.
As someone who had been in contact with Wang for a long time, he was the first to notice that something was wrong with Wang's condition.
The tone of voice, the style of doing things, and even the body language are all very different from before.
It’s like... I’ve become another Qi Yan!
"cough……"
The old carp who was knocked unconscious by Qi Yan's chess piece slowly woke up. After briefly assessing the situation, he immediately reminded: "He is learning from Qi Yan!"
There was a flash of realization in the Master's eyes: "You started again, Wang."
Wang remained calm after being pointed out by Lao Li, and even smiled carefreely:
"I have never stopped, Master. Even Qi Yan himself has never cared about it. What can you say?"
Qi Yan slapped Chen's hand on his shoulder and said nonchalantly:
"Let him learn. The day he finishes his studies will be the day he dies suddenly."
"Oh? What do you mean?" The Grand Tutor raised his eyebrows in surprise.
Even Wang couldn't help but reveal a curious look.
Qi Yan said calmly: "He doesn't have my ability, but he wants to imitate me in speaking and doing things. He will definitely be beaten to death."
This self-aware answer successfully silenced everyone in the room.
Wang remained quiet, quietly stood up, tidied his clothes, returned to the table, put the overturned chairs and chessboard back in place, then sat down, waved his hand and a shadow fell over his face.
At this moment, the Wang that the Taifu was familiar with returned again.
Tutor: "..."
see:"……"
The temperament is back, but the atmosphere in the house is difficult to restore for a while.
Qi, the main culprit, was totally unaware of this. He took his younger sister and hid in a corner of the house, whispering to her to cheer her up.
The Master pursed his lips and forced the topic back on track:
"Wang, do you admit your guilt?"
"What crime have I committed?" Wang asked back.
The Grand Tutor enumerated Wang's actions in detail:
"You should have imprisoned yourself in the capital prison, but now you have escaped from prison and caused chaos in Shang Shu. You set up this situation to lure Qi Yan and Nian Xiling to meet the three sisters, and used this to draw out Sui Xiang, which posed a huge threat to the safety of Shang Shu."
Facing the accusation from the Master, Wang calmly refuted:
"According to the agreement we made, I played chess with Da Yan, and every time I lost a game, I would be imprisoned for sixty years. But now, no one in Da Yan can beat me anymore. When the time is up, I will leave the capital as agreed. How can I say I have escaped from prison?
As for this Shang Shu and the wine cup where I am staying, wasn’t it your own decision within Dayan to bring the wine cup here?
As for the age factor, since you are standing here and interacting with me slowly, you must have realized that age is not a threat to my sister.
So, what's my fault?"
The Grand Tutor nodded and actually stepped aside.
Liang Xun and others couldn't help but change their expressions when they saw this.
Just as Liang Xun was thinking about what the Taifu was up to, Wang suddenly set his sights on him:
"Master Liang, I have something to ask you."
Liang Xun was stunned for a moment, and did not answer in a hurry. Instead, he turned his head to look at the tutor, waiting for instructions.
The Grand Tutor nodded silently, indicating that Liang Xun could do as he pleased.
"Please speak." Liang Xun said vigilantly.
"Master Liang, I heard what you said just now in the illusion to plead for the people."
Wang stared at Liang Xun in the shadows, questioning in his tone, "You said that Dayan shouldn't treat us in this way, and you are willing to plead for the people in your capacity as the governor of Shangshu. Do you know what your words mean?"
Liang Xun was completely confused and felt totally bewildered by Wang's questioning tone.
I'm speaking for you, why are you so angry?
"What do you mean, Mr. Wang?" Liang Xun asked back.
"Sir Liang, your intentions are good, but your vision is still a little low, limited to the world of Shangshu."
Wang was like a demon, and he said something shocking: "There are foreign evil spirits in the north of Da Yan, and in the south of the sea, both of which are disasters that can destroy nations and genocides. If we are not careful, it may even bring disaster to this whole land.
In this case, there are still hidden dangers of the beast in Da Yan. Do you think that Simuitai should prioritize solving the beast problem? "
Liang Xun: “…”
He was really confused.
Just when Liang Xun didn't know how to answer, the Master finally spoke:
"To resist foreign aggression, we must first stabilize the country. The decision of the Simatai has never been wrong, but... Prefect Liang has his heart set on Shangshu and is working for the country and the people, so he is also right.
It is not your turn to comment on this matter. After this, I will judge the merits and demerits of Governor Liang."
Wang laughed and said, "You see, in your eyes, there is only right and wrong. Whether it's me or Sir Liang, I have never thought about who is right or wrong. It's just an ordinary conversation."
"If you can't tell right from wrong, then what do you want to tell?" the Master asked.
"When our eyes fall on the dispute between two people, there is nothing to say about who is right or wrong."
Wang looked directly at the Master in the shadows: "But if our sights fall on a city, a country, and this land, can we still distinguish right from wrong? Does it still matter?"
The Master's hands behind his back tightened slightly.
He said in a deep voice: "Perhaps you should learn to speak Qi language."
Qi Yan, who was suddenly pointed at, said:?
"At least I can't learn it for now. If I try to imitate it by force, it will only end up being a dog instead of a tiger." Wang still smiled, "Don't worry, Qi Yan and I still have a lot of time, so you don't have to worry about this, Master."
There was a shadow in the Master's eyes.
"Wait, I have a question."
Qi Yan suddenly raised his hand from the corner and said, "Laowang, how long did it take you to learn chess?"
Wang was confused and said vaguely, "Probably a few hundred years."
"Oh, then you'd better hurry up, you may not have that much time left." Qi Yan said with pity.
see:???????
This time it was Wang's turn to be confused.
He was one of the fragments of a great beast, but not even a few hundred years were left?
This is almost the same as an ordinary person suddenly finding out that he or she has cancer and only has a few months to live.
He was not afraid of death, but being sentenced to death for no apparent reason made him feel indescribably depressed.
"Pfft-"
The Master couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Wang: “…What are you laughing at?”
The Master coughed twice, trying to save his image:
"During this trip to Shangshu, I discovered that Great Yan has people like Prefect Liang and Minister Ning serving as officials in the court, and there are also great chivalrous people like Master Shen living in seclusion among the people. I smile for the prosperity of Great Yan."
The room was quiet for a moment, and Wang suddenly flipped the chessboard:
"No fun, let's go."
With that said, he stood up and was about to leave.
"Wait a minute, you can't leave yet!"
Wu You, who had remained silent throughout, suddenly spoke and strode in front of Wang.
"What's the matter?" Wang asked puzzled.
It's fine that he quarrels and argues with Grand Tutor Liang Xun and other high-ranking officials, but why is it that now even a human being of common origin is trying to offend him?
Just when Wang was trying to save face from Wu You, Qi Yan cleared his throat:
"my people."
Wang: "...If you have anything to say, just say it directly."
