The thatched cottage where Daoyuan lives is simple beyond Ding Yi's imagination. He didn't expect that the dignified national teacher would live in such a simple house. There was not a single decent piece of furniture in the cottage, not even tables and chairs.

The thatch on the roof of the thatched cottage seems to have not been replaced for a long time, the color has turned gray, and even some have been carbonized and blackened, and there is an atmosphere of decay and decay in the whole thatched cottage.

Ding Yi sat on the futon, well-behaved, with a good figure and no squinting. He had just come off the field and had not had time to celebrate the victory with his teammates before he was invited here by Doyuan. Dogen should have fulfilled his promise and went to the arena to watch him fight. It's just that Ding Yi still doesn't know why Daoyuan asked him to come here.

Ding Yi had been entering this thatched hall for a while, and Dao Yuan had not spoken again except for saying the word 'sit' at the beginning. Ding Yi didn't dare to be reckless, so he had to sit quietly on the futon, waiting for the most powerful person in the Liuhua Continent to speak.

Dogen seemed to be meditating, and he sat there for a moment, closing his eyes in contemplation. Ding Yi had to accompany him quietly.

"Ding Yi, you are a very capable person, if you were to be me and sit in my place, what would you do?"

Ding Yi hurriedly said: "National teacher, I'm just a little naughty boy, I don't have much knowledge, let alone any ability, I ......"

Dao Yuan opened his eyes, his gaze was like electricity, and he could see that Ding Yi's heart was furious.

"Tell me, what would you do if you sat in my place?" Dogen asked again.

What is this? Do you have to answer? What should I say? Ding Yi was a little frightened, not knowing where to start.

Daoyuan's words, which seem to be abrupt, should still refer to Zeng Yi's passage of the industrial bill in Congress. Obviously, Daoyuan is not optimistic about this bill, or rather, if this bill is implemented, it will cause some changes on the mainland. Daoyuan may be a little unhappy to see it. But wasn't this matter what Dao Yuan promised him at the beginning?

Ding Yi had a battle between heaven and man in his mind, and made various judgments and analyses. However, it is clear that these contradictory things make him unable to make a decision in a short time.

Dao Yuan didn't speak, just stared straight at Ding Yi.

Ding Yi had no choice but to bite the bullet and say: "I thought that everything in this world was moving forward, for example, the thatch on the roof used to grow quietly in the wild, but since it was discovered, it also has the function of making paper, which has been widely used, and the emergence of paper can record history and inherit civilization......

"The adults sitting on it should take advantage of the situation, seek a good way, create a good environment, continue to retain the favorable aspects, and eliminate the harmful parts, new things are not necessarily dangerous, it depends on how the people above judge the trade-offs......"

Dao Yuan interrupted Ding Yi's words and said, "Good, bad, right and wrong, black and white, how to judge, how to choose, how to choose?"

Ding Yi was drenched in cold sweat, and he had to bite the head and say here: "Work together, check and fill in the gaps, I want to ...... I think it will still be ...... A good plan will still be screened out. ”

Dao Yuan sneered, "You mean those stupid people in the council?

Ding Yi didn't know how to answer.

"Xiao Ding Yi, do you know what is the most complicated thing in this world? It's the human heart! Taishang forgetfulness is just to coax those nerds, the human heart is not ancient, the hills and ravines are difficult to fill, and the ** of cultivators is stronger than that of mortals. Interests! Everything revolves around interests! Does right and wrong really exist?"

"You burned this fire, you have to have this awareness, whether to make this fire burn more vigorously, or to extinguish it, you have to prepare for this in advance!"

Ding Yi still couldn't judge the meaning of Daoyuan's words, whether he was for it or against it? Ding Yi was still confused.

"You are Ah Xiao's person, Ah Xiao has made great sacrifices to the empire, this time, I won't say much, you are still very young, there is still a long way to go, don't be led astray by those adults around you. Go back. "Daoyuan issued an eviction order.

Ding Yi quickly stood up and bowed deeply to Dao Yuan before leaving.

"Nanhua, what do you think?" Dao Yuan, who had originally closed his eyes, spoke again, and in this originally empty grass hall, in a dim place, a spiritual light flashed, and a figure was revealed.

"You are still a woman's kindness, this matter is very harmful, to put it mildly, this is a major event that endangers the country. The human heart is the most complicated, hehe, the human heart is also the most fickle, at the moment of life and death, I think as long as it is a normal person, it will make the right choice!" the figure named Nanhua said sharply.

Dao Yuan frowned slightly.

"Nanhua, I know what you're worried about, the situation hasn't reached that point yet, just like that kid said, 'Everything in this world is moving forward'. A little croaking life, who knows whether he will be virtuous or stupid in the future? You can't be too biased, you always have to observe for a while. ”

Nanhua said: "The most complicated thing is people's hearts, and when the time comes, people's hearts will be confused, and the whole pattern will not be like today." ”

Daoyuan said: "It's better to be in the open than to sneak in private, and besides, this is also the opinion of the vast majority of people, we can't be dictatorial and arbitrary, at least the peace on the surface is good." ”

Nanhua said: "I can't imagine that the defenders who destroyed the country and slaughtered the city in the past have become so kind-hearted now, Lao Yuan, you have changed." ”

Dao Yuan didn't care about Nanhua's ridicule, he said: "It's not that I've changed, it's that the time and space environment have changed, do you still think it's the same as before? After this Qinglian Championship, this puppet has aroused the ** in most people's hearts, do you think it's okay to forcibly suppress it? It's better to spread everything out in the sun, we old immortals, we must always open our eyes to see what changes will happen, at least there is a charter in our hearts, isn't it?"

Nanhua didn't make a sound, his figure gradually faded, and finally disappeared completely in the grass hall......

Being able to be called by the national teacher is a great honor in the eyes of many people, but Ding Yi has no joy at all, and winning the championship in the continental competition cannot dilute his worries. Dao Yuan's words kept circling in his mind, making him unable to eat through and figure out the joints in between.

Dao Yuan's words were covered with clouds and mountains and fog, and he was unpredictable. Maybe Dao Yuan was just going to beat him. He had no way of judging Dao Yuan's attitude. Anyway, it's already like this, and I did what I thought I should do, and there was really something wrong, let's talk about it then. Ding Yi was too lazy to bother anymore.

Daoyuan's chief of guard sent Ding Yi to the Southeast Guild Hall, where everyone was celebrating the first Qinglian Continental Championship won by the seven southeastern provinces since the founding of the People's Republic of China.

Ding Yi got down from the chariot, he bowed to the chief of the guard, and watched the flame god cow pull back with his support, and then walked towards the southeast hall.

Countless people laughed at Ding Yi, everyone patted the little puppeteer's not broad shoulders, gave a thumbs up to the little puppeteer, and the stars hugged him like a moon and walked inside.

Chen Shi'an greeted him and led Ding Yi inside, the entire Southeast Hall was lit up everywhere, everyone was cheering, and Ding Yi had a smile on his face.

The two participating teams from the southeast have merged together again, and this time everyone is very satisfied with the joint attack, which is a happy situation. All the people were beaming, Qiu Fengwei, Shi Yao, and Zeng Mao couldn't see anything wrong with them at least on the surface.

Master Lu personally showed his skills, personally went to the kitchen to Zhang Luo, and set up a table of Tianjiu banquet, a total of 9981 superb dishes, to celebrate Ding Yi and them. Lin Xian, the curator of the Southeast Hall, also personally sent ten jars, a century-old cellar of treasured wine. This time, it was a joy for both the guests and the hosts.

"Vice President Qiu, this time we worked together and won the championship of the continental competition. However, half a year later, it will be the championship of the Purple Palace. From the Liuhua Continent to the Tian Yuan Continent, the trip by sea alone is nearly a month, plus the time for us to return to school, the time for various preparations, and the time for the Tian Yuan Continent to go to the Golden City of Zhongdu. The time on these journeys alone is almost three months, and our time in the academy is only two months, I don't know what you plan?" Minghui asked.

Qiu Fengwei glanced at Ding Yi and Long Yan, and then at Shi Yao and Zeng Mao. After a while, he said: "Everything is for these children, those red tape saves energy, this is a major event for our entire southeast, and it is also the glory of our two colleges, Vice President Wang and Vice President Ming We understand what they mean, this time let Ding Yi and Long Yan go to Nanping with you......"

Shi Yao was a little reluctant, looked at Ding Yi and Long Yan with a blank eye, and said: "Our Xuanzang Academy is not as talented as your Zhongshan Academy, this is the most valuable talent in our Xuanzang Academy, don't look at us who are usually strict with them, but we have always regarded them as our own closest relatives, the two of them arrived in Nanping, if there is something three long and two short......

Wang Qiping and Minghui hurriedly swore a heavy oath and made a guarantee.

Chen Shi'an said: "Senior Sister Shi Yao, you can rest assured that Ding Yi and Long Yan will definitely be properly protected in our Zhongshan Academy and receive the highest level of courtesy, so you can put ten thousand hearts on this." ”

Qiu Fengwei also felt that Shi Yao was making a fuss, Shi Yao said: "Although there are two guarantees, but I still don't feel at ease, I still have to follow them to Zhongshan College, otherwise it is still not practical." ”

Wang Qiping and Minghui looked at each other for a moment, and could only nod in agreement. Qiu Fengwei also felt that it was safer for Shi Yao to follow, after all, if these two young geniuses went to Zhongshan Academy and were forced to stay by Zhongshan Academy for various reasons, ignoring the contract signed by the two academies, then Xuanzang Academy would lose a lot.

The people had decided to make up their minds, and then they were relieved.

Ma Yuan said: "Are the three treasures and fruits also going back to Zhongshan Academy?"

Guo Sanbao and Zhang Guozi were both stunned, and Ma Yuan said: "This time, we will fight together, but I don't know when we will meet in the future." ”

Chen Shi'an said: "Xiaoma is right, otherwise, this time we Zhongshan College invite you to Nanping as guests, after all, this time the two colleges cooperate seamlessly, and students can also communicate more with each other, what do you think?"

Qiu Fengwei and Zeng Mao were a little moved, after all, it was the first college in the southeast, even they had never been there, it was rare for the other party to be so sincere, so they didn't think much about agreeing. Ma Yuan was so happy this time, he had long wanted to go to Zhongshan Academy to see it. Yunxiang and they are also very happy, this time Guo Sanbao and Zhang Guozi fought side by side with everyone, and they have already formed a deep friendship, and it is great to be able to go around Zhongshan Academy.

Everyone was still pushing the cups and changing the lamps, Lin Xian walked in, and he was followed by Mu Haoran. Yuan Zhen frowned unconsciously.

"Congratulations to Zhongshan Academy for winning the continental championship, everyone doesn't mind if I take Ding Yi to a place for the time being, and I'll send him back when I'm ......"

Mu Haoran's background, almost all of the high-level officials of these colleges knew it, and they didn't dare to stop Mu Haoran.

However, Shi Yao still followed. Mu Haoran came in a car puppet. Ding Yi called Shangqu San, and also drove the car puppet, following Mu Haoran's car puppet all the way.

The car puppet drove to the high-walled compound with 'Garrison' written on it again, Mu Haoran asked Shi Yao and Qu San to wait outside, and he took Ding Yi into the compound again.

Zong Xiao was waiting for them in the courtyard.

"I heard that the national teacher came to you after the game, what did he tell you?" Zong Xiao stopped Ding Yi from saluting and went straight to the point.

Ding Yi recounted the conversation between Daoyuan and him to Zong Xiao in its original form.

Zong Xiaodao: "Your senior brother wants you to stay in Kyoto, why do you refuse?"

This topic is too jumpy, isn't it talking about the dialogue between the national teacher and him?

Ding Yi had to repeat the previous reason.

Zong Xiaoliang said for a long time: "You are mixed up with the people of Tiangang City, this is nothing, but since the national teacher has already asked, this matter is not trivial." Your senior brother wants to leave you in Kyoto, here, at least I can help you shelter from the wind and rain, but you have to insist on going back to the southeast, then if something happens in the future, you have to be more careful. ”

Ding Yi hurriedly expressed his gratitude to Zong Xiao.

"Vigorously developing puppet technology and boosting the influence of the puppet system, these should be the ideas of those blacksmiths in Tiangang City. There's nothing wrong with that, and you can get by by thinking of using legislation to plug the omission. However, Xiao Yi, you are still too young to understand people's hearts after all. If the legislation is useful and the system is useful, then what does the empire do when it sets up prisons? Why are there still so many lawbreakers who defy the law one after another?"

"Infinite life, means to reach the sky, this is the dream of a cultivator, do you know how many people in this capital want to get the blueprints of your car puppet? and how many careerists want to put their own children by your side?"

Ding Yi brushed a cold sweat and broke out.

"I wrote a letter to the national teacher, and in the future, the research on puppetry will only be limited to Jiyun City and Tiangang City, and the puppet factories in these two places can produce household puppets and car puppets. Workshops and factories in other places are not allowed to produce and sell. All puppeteers must report to the city governments of various cities, strictly restrict the movement of puppeteers, the car clubs in various places must be disbanded, the maintenance workshops in various places must be closed, and the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce and the Dragon Teng Chamber of Commerce will fully take over the puppet operations of Jiyun City and Tiangang City. Puppetry, not privately, and no one is allowed to learn formations, organs, refining weapons and other related disciplines. All types of puppets produced and sold must have complete documents, and all types of puppets that fail must be recycled and destroyed......"

Ding Yi looked at Zong Xiao in shock, he didn't expect his teacher to send such a letter to Daoyuan.
