Chapter 574 The Ten-Year Agreement with Han Fei: Zhi Pei Survives in Nanjing (1)

Yu Xing'er took the black cloak from Shen Zhi's hand and handed it to Yong'an, then stood consciously to the side of the carriage with a serious expression and closed her eyes.

Shen Zhi smiled and said, "Your Highness is not shy about these things, so you don't need to be too nervous. That person is Mr. Wenshan, who is close to the eldest son. It's late at night, and His Highness said you can sit on the carriage and rest."

Yu Xing'er didn't react for a long time. "Maid, I'm a little worried. Her Royal Highness rescued me from the palace," she tugged at her sleeve and lowered her eyes. "...will I get into trouble? I don't know how to repay Her Royal Highness."

Shen Zhi looked at the princess kneeling opposite Han Fei in the distance.

She thought that it had been ten years since Meng Yi brought her from Guxiakou to the princess.

She sensed that Ying Hehua had something very important on her mind. Over the years, complicated and burdensome matters had piled up, and even when she was going through the most difficult times, she hadn't said she would give up.

"Your Highness is a very strong person. He is not afraid of anything." Shen Zhi looked at Yu Xing'er, "Don't be afraid. Your Highness transferred you from Master Hu Hai to Zhilan Palace without asking you to do anything. You just need to remember His Highness's kindness and live a good life."

The stars formed a line in the night sky and fell into the cup.

Han Fei said, "I've been observing the stars for many years, and I've never heard of such a phenomenon. Little Princess, this is probably not a good sign."

If Mars is in the heart, it is certainly not a good sign.

Xu Zhi took a sip of the sake poured into the wine cup. Before it even reached her throat, she was shocked. The alcohol content was so high?
"Don't drink."

"Ahem...it's been ten years. How can I live without a drink?"

Han Fei handed over a cup of tea and said, "Let's drink this."

Xu Zhi had already swallowed the wine. "Ahem... I can't sleep after drinking tea in the middle of the night. I can drink a lot, but the wine my husband has been drinking in recent years is too strong, and I can't adapt to it."

He held down the wine jug with one hand, preventing her from picking it up. "Drinking too much is not good. Little princess, please drink less."

"..." "Han Fei." She said his name directly.

He paused.

"Mr. Han Fei, Mr. Fei...but I want to drink some wine."

She seemed to be in a bad mood. Han Fei didn't know what happened in the hall. Her face was wrapped in a large black cloak, and he couldn't see her expression clearly.

Back then, her aunt A Yao told him about her complicated and persistent love for Han An, and her final decision to go to Qin as a spy. She burst into tears and said, "Uncle Wang is doing well in Han State, but A Yao is gone."

Han Fei remained silent. He didn't know what comfort was and could only stammer in reply.

"...Okay, Xiaoluo'er, you, go... go."

Ying Hehua snatched the wine jug and slowly poured herself a glass.

"I know this is Mr. Mo's wine. His wine is strong because the ethanol concentration of distilled liquor is high. But after tonight, I can't drink it..."

"Ying Zheng doesn't allow you to go to Zhongnan Mountain again." Han Fei stated.

"Yes. Father doesn't want me to touch too much of Mr. Mo's things." She looked at him. "Sir, if you have anything to say, please feel free to say it. Or if you have anything you want to ask, please feel free to ask." She smiled. "If you ask me to confess, I'm afraid I won't be able to say anything. Please forgive me."

"Why did you go to Mount Li, little princess? Chunyu Yue said you did it because you were concerned about the labor service."

She smiled. "My original intention for going to Mount Li was indeed for labor, but I can't single that out in this debate. I deeply agree with what Grand Tutor Chunyu said. But what you wrote in your book is even more necessary now."

"what?"

"When the granaries are full, people know etiquette. When people have enough food and clothing, they know honor and disgrace. I haven't forgotten what you taught me."

...?
Han Fei had never said this to her. When she came to Yuelin Palace, she was only eight years old. He treated her as a child and told her everything as if it were a joke, telling her stories like the story of the man from Zheng buying shoes.

Apart from Ying Zheng, the only people who have read his books are Li Si...or Zhang Liang.

"What did Li Si say in the hall?"

Ying Hehua took a sip of wine and smiled, "Sir, you still care about Li Si. Prime Minister Li didn't say he wanted to burn books. He still advocated following the example of the later kings and abolishing private schools. He believed that Confucianism was full of evil and foolish words. After the banquet, my father asked all the Confucian scholars in Qi to return to Linzi."

The logic of this statement was not right, and Han Fei easily noticed it.

When speaking normally, you won’t put something you haven’t done first.

There was no burning of books... Could it be that Ying Hehua meant that Li Si originally intended to burn the books? How did she know?
Han Fei has a high IQ, and is among the top ones.

He and Mo Qi have been together for almost eight years.

Add to that what Ying Hehua had asked Zhang Liang when he was in trouble in Qin four years ago, and all sorts of things...

On this New Year's Eve, Han Fei recalled the key point in his mind.

They all mentioned freedom.

Mentioning that everyone is equal.

Mention the right to pursue happiness.

Advocate the unification of the world.

Mo Qi represents the Mohist idea of ​​universal love and non-aggression.

Qin banned Mohism.

It is impossible for Ying Hehua to come into contact with anything related to Mozi in her living environment and space.

Mo Qi often talked about strange things. Ying Hehua also occasionally said some.

Some plants and objects that have never been seen or heard of.

"I just told Supervisor Li that potatoes and sweet potatoes are delicious when cooked and have medicinal properties, just like radishes. He said I was talking nonsense."

Li Xian was naturally furious. Lu Heng had told him that the princess and Zhang Liang had often mentioned these two things in Chengfu, saying that they were grown in America, on the other side of the ocean.

——"I also think it's delicious and very filling. It's been a long time since I last saw it. I remember that I was alive in Nanjing thanks to it."

——Hearing the word Nanjing, Ying Hehua seemed to be stimulated... She looked very sad and was stunned for a long time.

Han Fei didn't know whether she had ever cried with Zhang Liang, but he knew very well that she rarely shed tears in front of Li Xian.

But at that time, her eyes were filled with tears. "...Ah, I didn't know. I didn't know that the master had suffered so much and experienced such despair... How could I force the master to come out of the Peach Blossom Spring, I..."

——Mo Qi stopped and said, "Ah, there are so many things I can't remember. Little princess, you know, twenty years ago when I crawled out of Changping, I didn't even have potatoes to eat."

Xu Zhi almost burst into tears.

As soon as she started crying, Li Xian was completely helpless. He was no longer angry about anything and just knew how to comfort her.

Later, Han Fei heard Li Xian convey her words to Mo Qi: "The master is living well in the mountains. She will visit him often. He doesn't need to worry about other things."

Han Fei, the last great master of the Warring States Period, figured it out in just a few seconds.

There is a certain connection between Ying Hehua and Mo Qi's thoughts and behaviors.

So, they must have been exposed to the same path of thought. This is the world of madmen, which means that this is probably not something that belongs to their era?

He was not interested in supernatural things, but was very interested in the source of their ideas.

Han Fei looked at her deeply.

Xu Zhi watched him take out a handkerchief from his bosom, carefully wipe away the spilled wine stains on the table, and even arrange each wine cup in order. "...Can I ask you a question too?"

"Please speak, little princess."

"Are you mysophobic?"

"...I was studying in Lanling. I often saw someone doing this. I learned it without realizing it."

Xu Zhi knew who he was talking about. "Except for Zuo Che, the others in the Li family are all weird. They have to do everything by the book, and they have obsessive-compulsive disorder."

He laughed, "Is that what the princess asked?"

"No."
