Chapter 634
Li Linfei was a bit depressed, he could see the meaning embedded in the martial arts, but he didn't feel that he had learned any lessons! He was tempted to ask Fusu, "Have you found anything? But he would not do such a thing, it was not in keeping with his masterly style.
"My lord, what about this third match?" Li Si inquired.
"With a result like this, winning or losing is no longer so important." Fu Su's meaning was a draw, giving both sides a step down.
"Thank you, my lord." Fu Nian immediately bowed.
Xiaomeng was not surprised by this result, she knew what Fusu intended to do, and cast and light to Li Linfei's side.
"I have heard that the three Confucian masters are all masters in the chess dao, I have a chess game in my hand and would like to ask the three of you to break it." At this point Li Linfei came out and everyone was amazed!
You didn't come out during the sword fight, but now you want to play chess with the other side after the fight, don't you know that the other side is very good at chess?
But thinking about what Li Linfei had done in the past, maybe he was really good at chess!
Fu Su nodded and told his guards to quickly go and find a chess board, only to see Li Lin Fei wave his big hand and a chess board made of internal energy instantly formed in the air, with black and white pieces already arranged on it.
The three Confucians immediately understood that this was to let them use their internal energy to play chess, and they were also surprised at Li Linfei's control of internal energy, which was no less difficult than the previous competition between Xiao Meng and Fu Nian.
But Li Linfei was not from the Yin Yang family and this method was not the same as the Yin Yang family's. At the same time, Li Linfei needed to consume a huge amount of internal energy every moment to maintain this state, and looking at the way he talked and laughed, it was evident that his internal energy was deep and not comparable to ordinary people.
Zhang Liang and the others immediately collected their minds and began to observe the game. Several of them had been studying Go for decades and were indeed experts in this art.
When he looked again, he suddenly felt dizzy and swollen. He had only calculated the death or survival of a small white piece in the lower right corner, and he already felt the blood in his chest surging. He settled down.
After a few more calculations, his eyes suddenly went black, and with a sweetness in his throat, he spurted out a mouthful of blood.
All those who were still studying the game were surprised by Zhang Liang's appearance. Zhang Liang's condition was expected by Li Linfei, who was now too young and had not experienced enough setbacks, although his intelligence was already there.
If Zhang Liang, who can choose to retire at a later stage, can break it, there may be a chance, otherwise as long as you have the obsession, the smarter you are, the harder it is to break it.
The only Confucian who has a chance to break it is Yan Lu, who is uncontested and a modest gentleman, and if he knows how to put death before life, it is easy to break.
But now, seeing the way he wanted to break the game, Li Linfei knew that he would probably not be able to do so, for this was a precious chess game in the Eight Divisions of the Heavenly Dragon, not an ordinary chess game, and the more he tried to break it, the harder it was to do so.
The three of them watched for a long time, but there was no way to break it, so Fu Nian had no choice but to step forward and ask, "Sir, do you have a way to break this game?"
"Back then, a friend of mine created this game of chess and studied it for decades, but his talent was far superior to mine. After this nonsense, Li Linfei made a move, and everyone was amazed. How could it be a way to break the game?
But there were some people who immediately understood.
"A good move to set up a deadly game, I've been taught." Duke Chu Nan flew a salute at Li Lin.
The others also dug in when they saw Duke Chu Nan say this, and now the move was really able to be played.
"Zhang Liang has been taught." Zhang Liang shook his head helplessly, deluding himself that he thought he was smart, but he didn't expect to almost lose his mind to a game of chess.
Li Linfei smiled faintly, this wave of pretence was very good, even Zhang Liang was convinced.
"I didn't expect you to have insight in the chess path as well, and to have taught Fusu this profound truth, please accept my obeisance." Fu Su also expressed his conviction.
"Too deep an obsession often affects one's mind, one must be willing to let go in order to be free and easy." Li Linfei put on another act.
"What else do you know? Tell us all!" Xiaomeng asked quietly as she walked to Li Linfei's side.
"Me? Know a lot of things." Li Linfei shrugged his shoulders, there were as many miscellaneous things in the latter days as there were cows, I can still play games, can you?
"Hmph." Seeing Song Yichen like this, Xiaomeng became a bit unhappy, can we still play happily?
When she left, Xiaomeng left in Li Linfei's passenger seat, and she kept chattering, "Is this what you took to Sangha?"
"Mm!" Li Linfei nodded, many people in this empire knew that!
"Then why didn't you take me with you in the first place! You don't know how tired I was from rushing over here, if I had known there was such comfort on your side, I wouldn't have taken that carriage."
Although Xiaomeng's inner strength was high, it was tiring to rush in a carriage for a long time.
"I did tell you when I was leaving." Li Linfei slyly argued.
In fact, he hadn't really thought of this at that time.
"How about something like this being allocated to the Heavenly Clan as a sect asset?" Xiaomeng said beautifully.
"Dream on!"
"Alright then." Xiaomeng was just saying it casually, and when she saw that Li Linfei refused, she wouldn't mess around with it.
Chapter 635
The two of them returned to their quarters, and it was not long before Fu Su came looking for him, and Li Lin Fei poured him a cup of Big Red Robe.
Fu Su had also recently fallen in love with the taste of the tea at Li Lin Fei's residence, and after a slight taste, guessed, "Earlier, I was reported by Zhang Han that the Thief and the Butcher had been rescued by Gai Nie as well as Wei Zhuang."
Li Linfei nodded slightly, "With the abilities of the two swords of Ghost Valley, they do have the strength to do so, and what Zhang Liang did earlier at Little Sage Villa was to stall the Six Sword Slaves."
Fu Su said, "Zhang Liang is intelligent, it would be good if he could be used for my Great Qin."
Li Linfei shook his head.
"I'm afraid that Zhang Liang is hopeless for the time being, he is a relic of the Six Kingdoms and is still investigating the death of Han Fei, so he is still in the hostile camp, at least for now, but I do have a wise man to recommend to your son, his talent is not weaker than that of Minister Li."
Fu Su was stunned, not inferior to Li Si, who was Li Si? Who was Li Si? He was the right hand of his father. If he had such a helper, if he trained him well, he would be able to make a good story in the future.
So he stood up immediately, bowed to Li Linfei and said, "I beg you, sir, to give me guidance."
Li Linfei helped Fu Su up, "There is a county official in Pei County called Xiao He, he is a talent, and he also has a friend called Cao Sen who is also a talent."
Han Xin and Zhang Liang were not available to Fu Su, but Xiao He was not! He was a proper Qin official, not a match for those two wildcats.
Fu Su nodded his head, he understood that some talented people were not relied upon, wasn't Shang Yang also not relied upon before he reached Qin?
He then asked, "What do you think Fusu should do after that?"
Li Linfei shook his head and said, "I don't know, has there been any movement in Luo's network?"
Fusu said, "Luo-net has always been controlled by Father, and I have no way of knowing his movements."
Li Linfei smiled and asked, "Does the Duke know about the Divine Farming Order?"
Fusu nodded, "I also heard a little about the Divine Peasant Order when it suddenly came out some time ago."
Li Linfei was silent for a while before saying, "It should be done by someone from the empire, either Zheng or Luo Net."
Fu Su's head was covered with black lines, Brother Zheng, how dare you say that, that's my father! You look even younger than me, don't you? How dare you call him that.
But he couldn't say anything about it, even Ying Zheng knew that Li Linfei called him that.
"Even Fusu doesn't know about this."
Li Linfei nodded: "A hundred schools of thought have their own benefits, and a sole family also has its own benefits, but the current Qin laws are too harsh, and on the basis of the rule of law can be appropriately slowed down in terms of penalties, here is my zheng zheng, you can send it for me."
After saying this, Li Linfei took out a piece of paper on which words were densely written.
Fu Su took a closer look and saw the following written on it: "I have heard that he who seeks the growth of a tree must strengthen its foundation; he who wants the flow to be far away must dredge its source; he who thinks of the peace of the country must accumulate its virtue and righteousness. If the source is not deep, how can one hope that the stream will be far away; if the root is not solid, how can one seek the growth of the wood? He who thinks of the rule of his country without virtue and righteousness knows that it cannot be done, even if he is a fool, let alone a wise man! ......"
The more Fu Su reads, the more astonished he becomes! The more he reads, the more amazed he becomes! Not only is it well-written, but its content is also comparable to Li Si's earlier admonition to expel guests.
Every word was from the heart! When he had read the whole thing, he held back his excitement and asked, "Sir, does this text have a name?"
Li Linfei raised his eyebrows and said, without blushing, "Then it will be called Persuading the Emperor of Qin to think ten times."
After all, Ying Zheng was not Li Shimin, nor was he Wei Zheng, nor did they have a friendly relationship.
Li Linfei's purpose in writing this article is to hope that the Qin Emperor will relax the law a little bit, otherwise it will really start to die in the second century.
The most crucial thing is that Zhao Gao is absolutely right in decreeing the Divine Farmers, and Qin is still taking action against the farming family, first by punching the Moist Home for the Elderly, then by kicking the Confucian Kindergarten, and now by taking on the farming family, which has the largest number of people.
Li Linfei did not believe that Zhao Gao's actions could be hidden from Ying Zheng's eyes.
Li Linfei is not ignorant of the fact that the Daoist Heavenly Clan is doing well, but if one day there are no more enemies and he is no longer there or if Ying Zheng finds a way to deal with the bazooka, then the Daoist Clan will not end up any better than the Mozi Clan.
"Fusu will send this excellent document to Xianyang with eight hundred miles of expedition."
Usually expedited documents are used to report military intelligence, this was an exception for Fusu, he also slightly saw Li Linfei's concern, such a practice was considered to make Li Linfei owe himself a favour.
Once Fusu had left, Xiaomeng walked in, "What did you ask the Duke to give to His Majesty?"
Li Linfei smiled and said, "Just an article."
Xiaomeng asked, "Just an article!?"
Li Linfei said with certainty, "Yes, it is an article, by the way you were eavesdropping just now?"
Xiaomeng gave him a blank look, what do you mean by eavesdropping, she was at least the head of the Heavenly Clan, how could she use the word eavesdropping?
Then she asked, "Do you think Ying Zheng is going to attack the Nong family?"
Li Linfei nodded affirmatively and said, "Actually, it won't be Ying Zheng. Ying Zheng knows that the Nong family is actually the power of Fusu, and he has already decided that Fusu will be his successor, so naturally he won't weaken him any further.
Chapter 636
Xiaomeng was surprised and asked, "Are you that sure he will understand?"
Li Linfei shook his head, "Even if he doesn't understand, it won't do us any harm."
He had done that before to give Fusu a reminder, and as for Ying Zheng's side, even if he didn't understand it, it wasn't bad for Li Linfei, the article itself was very meaningful.
Xiaomeng said, "I always felt that Zhao Gao was extraordinary."
Li Linfei nodded and said, "It seems our hearts are in sync this time, I think so too, his martial arts skills are not weaker than mine I'm afraid, this time Luo Net came out with the Divine Farming Order."
"The purpose is to draw the various halls of the Nong family into infighting, taking the opportunity to eradicate the Nong family, the biggest backer left behind for Fusu by the former king of Chu, Changpingjun, weakening Fusu's power and eventually eradicating Duke Fusu and supporting Duke Huhai to the throne, while at the same time leading to a major crisis in the various schools of the jianghu."
Xiaomeng said, "It seems that we can't just wait any longer."
Seeing that Xiaomeng also recognised this problem, Li Linfei said, "Now that the People's Clan has completely embarked on the path of anti-Qin, it is time to merge.
Xiaomeng looked at Li Linfei with interest and asked, "You are trying to put all of the Daoist family's chips on Qin, have you considered that in case Qin is overthrown, the Heavenly Clan might be overthrown, and then the Daoist family's legacy will still need to be settled by the Human Clan, I don't think this is the most reasonable time."
Li Linfei nodded helplessly, "You have a point, although I think I should take this opportunity to gather all my power and prepare to challenge the Yin Yang Clan, but I have forgotten about the legacy of the sect, it seems that I am still not fit for great things."
Xiaomeng stood up and went to the door, watching the cherry blossoms fall in pieces in the garden, and said, "All of us are too small in front of the Heavenly Way and have to be careful."
"Even if all the unfavourable factors are removed, the Great Qin will not remain stable forever, the cherry trees in the mountains, although they have their time to blossom, will eventually return to dust, human life is just like this, the great work of the state is just like this."
Li Linfei broke a cherry blossom and put it on Xiaomeng's bun: "Although cherry blossoms are beautiful, they are fleeting, and although life is beautiful, it is only a snap of the fingers."
"Things are unpredictable, you never know who you will meet next and where you will go, the only way to live in the present is not to live a life full of regrets, that's why I do a lot of things more for my own freedom and happiness, just like me and you, if it wasn't for some constraints, I wouldn't be worried about these things."
Xiaomeng blushed slightly when she saw Li Linfei's action, but did not blame him and said, "It's time for us to look for the free spirit, after all, although we are rivals, we are not enemies."
Li Linfei nodded his head in admiration, he still wanted to merge the Taoists into one so that he could complete the system task.
To be honest he really didn't like being involved with that too much.
"With such a big event happening in the farming family, Prosperity should also be there."
Xiaomeng gently leaned her head on Li Linfei's chest, "Because of what happened to senior brother, I have to fight him, no half-truths allowed."
Li Linfei opened his arms and gently wrapped them around her, comforting her, "Don't worry, I'm here!"
Xiaomeng shook her head, "No, I forbid you to go, and I forbid you to press the battle for me."
Li Linfei was surprised, "Why?"
Xiaomeng shook her head and stiffened her lips.
Li Linfei was a little depressed, why not let that himself go?
"If the Daoists want to unite, the Heavenly Clan and the Human Clan must fight through, and the victory will determine the right to speak."
Xiaomeng rubbed against Li Linfei's chest, "I know, I've been preparing for this for ten years."
Li Linfei sighed, "Alright, but I'll be around to watch."
Li Linfei had already guessed why Xiaomeng wouldn't let herself go, she wanted to have a fair fight with Prosperity, if Li Linfei were to watch the battle from the sidelines, Prosperity would definitely be extremely depressed inside and would not be able to wield 100% of his strength, which would be beneficial to Xiaomeng.
But Xiaomeng did not want that, having trained her inner strength for ten years, if she could not defeat her opponent in an upright manner, a hurdle would appear in her dao heart.
"Good." Knowing that Li Linfei, Xiaomeng suddenly thought again that she had just done something so intimate with Song Yichen because of her momentary excitement, and could not help but lower her head.
"Most of all, that gentle bowing of the head, like a water lotus flower not winning the cool breeze of shyness." Seeing Xiaomeng like this, Li Linfei couldn't help but recite this line from Xu Zhimo's poem, no matter how high and cold a queen can have a feminine side!
"Most of all is the tenderness of that bowed head, like the shyness of a water-lotus flower that cannot overcome the cool wind." Xiaomeng murmured.
Then she said, "Is this a poem? It seems to be different from the poetry scriptures again."
Li Linfei smiled slightly, "Who said that poetry should be confined to a format? Whether it's human or natural, it's all the same."
Xiaomeng froze for a moment, then nodded in understanding: "This is your understanding of the Dao, right?"
Li Linfei said, "Dao, not the Dao, is also not the Dao, the Dao is just a name, just a word, not the essence of the Dao, it is originally nameless, it can be called the way, it can be called nature, or the Dao, named the Dao, that is, not the Dao. If man calls it such and such and such of itself, and forcibly names it Tao. Forgetting its origin, and grasping its end."
"If one really wants to understand the Way, one must first detach oneself from the name of the Way, and having detached oneself from the name of the Way, one has no opinion. If one has no insight, one is pure and natural, and one has only experience; if one has experience, one's body is the same as the Tao; if one's experience has passed, one's experience does not exist; if one's body is the same as the Tao, there is no more sameness or difference; there is no other and no other; there is no self and no Tao; the body itself is like this, and it is called the Tao. There is nothing to gain."
Xiaomeng was silent, you sister, just now the two of them had a pretty good atmosphere, but now they became so odd, talking about this, can't help but white the person in front of him, really don't understand the atmosphere.
