Origin

Zhao Ying smiled lightly, picked up the wine glass and stretched it towards Wu Zhongyuan.

Wu Zhongyuan was stunned for a moment before offering a cup to greet him. At this time, he didn't have the habit of clinking glasses. Cheers were something only in later generations.

After clinking glasses, Wu Zhongyuan drank half of the drink, and Zhao Ying tasted it briefly. After putting down the glass, she turned around and looked around to see what was going on inside the wine shop, perhaps out of curiosity or out of the professional habits of an agent.

"Come, have a taste," Wu Zhongyuan picked up his chopsticks and pointed at the vegetables on the table, "At this time, supplies are very scarce, it is difficult to maintain food and clothing, and there are not many delicious things. The food here is very good, and it is considered a good place at this time. Very good.”

Zhao Ying did not refuse politely. She picked up her chopsticks and tasted each one one by one. This was not the first time that the two of them had eaten at the same table, but it was the most relaxing one, at least for Zhao Ying. She did not have to hide her true eating preferences and eating methods. People don't have as many rules at the dinner table as Easterners do, and they are more relaxed after getting the host's invitation and permission.

Orientals pay attention to eating and sleeping without saying anything. If they need to talk at a banquet, they will temporarily put down their chopsticks. However, there is no such rule in the West. Zhao Ying has been tasting carefully and commenting in real time. If she has an appetite, she will take a few more bites and occasionally eat. Will pick up a glass of wine and drink with the meal.

Wu Zhongyuan took the jug and poured wine for him. Since the dining table was relatively large and had many varieties of vegetables, if he found someone who had an appetite for Zhao Ying, he would move him closer to Zhao Ying.

"How does it feel to be worshiped by others?" Zhao Ying said while wiping the front of her chopsticks with a paper towel. She has always had this habit. This is also a more educated habit. The juices from different dishes will not be transferred to each other through the chopsticks. Confusion also prevents chopsticks with their own saliva from contaminating the remaining food on the plate.

Wu Zhongyuan did not expect Zhao Ying to ask such a question. He thought for a while before answering, "Pressure, huge pressure."

"I also feel that although you dominate the world, your life is not happy," Zhao Ying said. "You have achieved such amazing achievements in just over two years. It is really rare, but your The mental pressure is too great, and problems will arise sooner or later if this continues, so you have to try to slow down."

Wu Zhongyuan smiled, a bitter smile, "I want to too, but time waits for no one. The time left for me is too limited. I must unite all the tribes in the entire Central Plains into one within a year. You should know that unification is simple. , integration is difficult and involves all aspects. While developing productivity, I also need to consolidate national defense and make pre-war preparations. I am Huangdi, and the myriad of things below will eventually converge on me. There is an old saying that a single move can make a difference. All over my body, I was highly nervous when I was reviewing the memorial. Any order I gave would become a national policy and would affect tens of millions of people, so there was no room for my carelessness."

Zhao Ying picked up the wine glass and took a sip, "You are the king now. Even if the people below find problems, they dare not respond to you truthfully, let alone criticize you. But I am an outsider, and I dare to say what they dare not say. , I understand your situation and difficulties, but you are too purposeful now, and even your eyes show eagerness and exhaustion. I feel that you are not controlling the situation now, but the situation is controlling you. You are completely affected by the severe situation. I am pushing and walking, getting closer and closer to the king, and getting further and further away from Wu Zhongyuan."

Wu Zhongyuan was thinking about what Zhao Ying said and did not answer immediately.

Zhao Ying added, "If my guess is correct, you should be eager to send me away now, and then make time to do what you must do."

"If you are willing, you can stay here for a while and I will accompany you around." Wu Zhongyuan said.

"No, I understand your difficulty," Zhao Ying stood up and took the soup bowl in front of Wu Zhongyuan to serve him soup. "I am very touched that you can stay with me for a day. Others will not be treated like this."

"You are not someone else.

"Wu Zhongyuan laughed.

"You still like me." Zhao Ying smiled with some relief.

Wu Zhongyuan did not deny it, but he did not continue the topic, "You just said that I am too purposeful. Now, after you finish speaking, what do you think is the right thing for me to do?"

"We have all your test scores from elementary school to college," Zhao Ying said. "Through these data, it is not difficult to find that you have been able to do your best in everything from childhood to adulthood, and you have studied very seriously and worked very hard. "

"If you were taught by an old Taoist priest in his 70s or 80s and a senior brother who risked his life to dig coal in the well, you would study very hard." Wu Zhongyuan closed his eyes and sighed. Thinking carefully, he had not done anything for a long time. I think of my master, and I don’t even think of Lin Qingming very often.

Seeing that Wu Zhongyuan's bitter memories were brought back, Zhao Ying hurriedly changed the topic, "What I want to say is that you don't have to be the best at everything. When it's time to relax, you should relax appropriately and feel the life. All kinds of good things, don’t live so tiredly, if you can’t do everything well, you can give up on some minor things.”

"Haha," Wu Zhongyuan laughed, "If you were not my friend, I would interpret your words as enemy agents' attempts to deceive and corrupt heads of state of other countries."

"Are we just friends?" Zhao Ying asked with a smile.

"What are you doing?" Wu Zhongyuan rolled his eyes, "You are an enemy agent and a sugar-coated bullet, and you still want to seduce the head of another country?"

"Haha, do you accept it?" Zhao Ying also laughed.

"You are too direct." Wu Zhongyuan was a little nervous.

"It won't work if it's not direct. I only have one night." Zhao Ying said half truth and half lie. To be precise, it was nine truths and one lie.

"If you don't get it, you won't lose it." Wu Zhongyuan reached out to pick up the food. "Some things are better to keep a little bit of beauty and leave some memories."

"Are you indirectly rejecting me?" Zhao Ying tilted her head and looked at him.

Zhao Ying looked at Wu Zhongyuan, and Wu Zhongyuan also tilted his head to look at her. This was a beautiful and familiar face. Before that, he had never thought that he would see Zhao Ying again one day. Looking at this familiar face, his thoughts returned. During the time he spent with Zhao Ying day and night, all the things he did were vividly remembered. If Zhao Ying had not saved him outside the cave where the little wizard was, he would have been killed by the bird warrior dressed as a Taoist priest.

After looking at each other for a moment, Wu Zhongyuan shook his head, "It's so kind to meet an old friend in a foreign country, but there are some things I won't do."

"Reason?" Zhao Ying asked.

Wu Zhongyuan put down his chopsticks and chewed the bracken in his mouth, "Do you know why Chinese people like the number nine? Nine is the ultimate, any more is ten, ten is full, and when it is full, it will change. We have reached nine now, I don't want to Then there are other changes, good and bad."

Zhao Ying smiled and said, "I have a set of data in my hand. It is a statistical survey of people before death. The number of people counted exceeds 200,000, including more than a dozen countries in the East and the West. The people surveyed have different outlooks on life. and ideology, the content of the survey was what their biggest regret was, and the survey results were surprisingly similar. Their biggest regret was not something they had done that they shouldn't have done, but something they had always wanted to do, if they had the opportunity. I did it but didn’t do it, and the result is a lifelong regret.”

"Is this the reason why you Westerners have such promiscuous sex?" Wu Zhongyuan asked with a smile. This sentence must be asked with a smile, otherwise it will be too serious and sharp.

There are active and passive parties in everything. The passive party has the right to refuse, and therefore has the absolute initiative. Zhao Ying knew very well that Wu Zhongyuan wanted to make her angry, and then ended the relationship in such an unhappy way. topic, so she was not angry, but explained with a smile, "Don't imitate others, change concepts, and be promiscuous. Sex is a low-level instinct just to satisfy desires without in-depth understanding. You will regret it afterwards, not Isn’t it clear what I just said that someone has always wanted to do something? It’s a pity that someone has always wanted to do something but didn’t do it when they had the opportunity.”

Wu Zhongyuan smiled, changed the language, and ordered the waiter to serve rice, or porridge to be precise. People at this time generally did not eat dry rice at night, but rice porridge.

Zhao Ying didn't eat much, and there were still a lot of vegetables left. Wu Zhongyuan was also hungry, so he ate with his rice bowl.

Ideology determines the behavior. Zhao Ying is bold and direct. The most important thing is that she knows that she has to rest after eating, and there is no time for her to advance slowly. "You may have misunderstandings about agents, and so do agents. It’s human rights, and if we don’t want to do anything, our superiors won’t force us to do it.”

Wu Zhongyuan knew what Zhao Ying meant, but he just pretended not to know, "You talk about human rights at every turn. You invade other countries for oil and bring their countries into chaos. If you really talk about human rights, their **** The maximum sentence is life imprisonment, but it would be better for you to just hang him to death. Is this all done by humans?"

"Don't ramble, you know what I mean." Zhao Ying glared at him.

"This fish is good, but it's not available in modern times. Eat a few more bites." Wu Zhongyuan delivered the plate.

Zhao Ying stretched out her hand to block her, "You have her and you still marry another woman. Your morals are already flawed and you can no longer be a gentleman."

"This is ancient times, not modern times." Wu Zhongyuan retorted.

"Then what are you still worried about?" Zhao Ying was a little anxious and her face turned red.

"Oh," Wu Zhongyuan waved his hand impatiently, "Why do you have to force me to do something I don't want to do?"

"Hypocritical, you are so hypocritical!" Zhao Ying raised her voice, "Do you not want to do it, or do you dare not do it?"

"What am I afraid of?" Wu Zhongyuan stretched out his hand and said, "I am the Yellow Emperor, I am the biggest, I can do whatever I want."

"You hate me so much?" Zhao Ying was emotional.

"I don't hate you," Wu Zhongyuan sighed helplessly, "You killed my father-in-law and I didn't do anything to you. Don't speak out of conscience and use aggressive methods."

After Wu Zhongyuan finished speaking, he took out a Qi-replenishing elixir from his waist bag and placed it on the table, then stood up and said, "Let's go, the hotel here is very good, there is a hot spring in the room, I will take you there."

Wu Zhongyuan went first, and Zhao Ying could only follow.

Wu Mei and others had been guarding the door. There were too many vegetables left on the table. Wu Zhongyuan was not willing to waste them. After going out, he said to Wu Mei, "Thank you for your hard work. I have rewarded you with the food and wine on the table. There is also Yibao." For the rest, you can order some warm wine and hot soup."

Wu Mei and others were moved and thanked them, and watched Wu Zhongyuan and Zhao Ying leave.

When they arrived at the Dexi Street Inn, Wu Zhongyuan chose the best one, took Zhao Ying to the door of the room, opened the door, and stepped aside, "You should rest early, I have something to discuss with them."

"Stop making excuses, go in and sit for a while. If you don't want to do anything else, just talk." Zhao Ying invited softly.

"You have to keep your word." Wu Zhongyuan's soft-hearted sexual disease has occurred again. If he refuses sternly at this time, Zhao Ying will be very embarrassed.

"Um……"
