Chapter 91: The Hardest Thing to Understand is the Human Heart
"Chang'an is still the same Chang'an, but the people are no longer the same people..." The person Wang Jingzhe was referring to was naturally Qing Ye. The person is still the same person, but his heart has changed.
Mao Xiaocao said "oh" and frowned, "Did you notice anything wrong?"
Wang Jingzhe said: "It is actually very simple to see the fluctuations in a person's heart. No matter how great a master of disguise he is, no matter how superb an actor's acting skills are, or even if he is a typical hypocrite, it may be difficult for you to see through his heart at ordinary times. But when he lies, no matter how deeply he hides it, his heart will fluctuate. This fluctuation will be more obvious in his face. Just now, Qing Ye and I chatted for a while and everything seemed normal, but when he stood up and said he was going to the kitchen to take a look, a horizontal line suddenly appeared between his eyebrows, and a tiny drop of water suddenly appeared on the tip of his nose. I knew he was lying. He didn't want to go to the kitchen, but to inform the public."
"It is also possible that he went to the toilet, or did something else without saying it clearly. He didn't necessarily go to tip off others..." Mao Xiaocao said quietly.
Wang Jingzhe pointed to his own eyes and said seriously: “If they can’t see accurately, then our lineage would not have continued for thousands of years and would have been drowned in the long river of history. Sometimes what the eyes see may not be very accurate, but if you add the feeling, then it will definitely be accurate. I don’t even need any reason to doubt, I just need to feel it. Sometimes, no matter it is divination, calculation, fortune-telling, or asking about the future, you can’t really see the real thing, otherwise it will become a prediction of the future. No one can do it except God. Three points of looking, three points of calculating, and three points of relying on feeling, this feeling is feeling”
"What about the remaining point?"
Wang Jingzhe said: "That depends on fate, whether God favors you or not."
Mao Xiaocao looked at Wang Jingzhe who was speaking confidently, sighed and asked, "Since you already know that he has informed others and that he is lying, then someone will come to arrest you soon. What I am curious about is that while you and I are talking, we could have sneaked away for a long distance. What are you thinking about?"
Wang Jingzhe lowered his head and said, "I remember the first time I came to see Qing Ye, he and my father were drunk, then he patted my head and told my father that he wanted me to be his godson. My father disagreed at the time, saying that my fate was too rough and it would not be a good thing to recognize anyone as my father. At that time, I could see that Qing Ye liked me very much. Now I stayed and did not leave, just to see why he had ignored our past acquaintance in just a few years."
Mao Xiaocao sneered and said, "In fact, there is something you said just now that I really want to refute you, that is, the most difficult thing to see through in the world is the human heart..."
Wang Jingzhe closed his eyes and said nothing, but muttered in his heart: "Especially a woman's heart!"
In the courtyard, Qing Ye came out, tilted his head back, sighed, and looked up at the sky with a vague and complicated look.
"Dad, are you still hesitating?" asked the young man who had practiced Iron Sand Palm.
"Zheng Kun, do you think what I did is right?" Qing Ye asked with a frown.
Qi Zhengkun smiled: "How can there be right or wrong in the world? What you want to do is wrong in Wang Jingzhe's eyes, but it is right in my eyes. To put it bluntly, it's because our interests and positions are different. Just like when the Manchus entered the pass, the Han people hated them so much that they wanted to crush them to ashes and clamored to overthrow the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty, but in the eyes of the Manchus, this was the beginning of the great cause of the Qing Dynasty. Of course, the Han people felt that the Manchus were wrong, but the Manchus were very beautiful. You lied to Wang Jingzhe and he will naturally hate you, but as your son, I will definitely be very grateful that you did this. After all, you did it for me, Dad."
Qing Ye looked at him silently. Raising a son, raising a son, to put it bluntly, isn't everything for the son?
After a while, Qing Ye returned to his original state, followed by Qi Zhengkun with the same expression. The father and son sat opposite Wang Jingzhe and Mao Xiaocao . Qing Ye smiled and said, "I cooked for you personally today. Jingzhe, you are in for a treat. Come have a drink with me later. We haven't seen each other for many years. Even your father has never come to Chang'an again."
Wang Jingzhe said: "I don't even know where he is. I am such an irresponsible father. I left my sister and me alone for several years."
Wang Jingzhe sounded quite resentful when he said this. Wang Xianzhi had been gone for many years without a sound. If it weren't for Wang Dongzhi holding him back, Wang Jingzhe probably wouldn't know what his life would be like. However, even though he was resentful, he had nothing to complain about. Wang Jingzhe knew where his father had gone.
Qi Zhengkun glanced at Qing Ye and said, "Then you are really far behind me. My father loves me without any ambiguity."
“Hehe…” Wang Jingzhe smiled. Qing Ye suddenly said, “Okay, let’s talk while we eat. We still have plenty of time. It doesn’t matter if we talk all night long. Jingzhe, stay at home today and don’t leave. Stay overnight.”
Wang Jingzhe looked at Qing Ye calmly, then at Qi Zhengkun. He suddenly said, "I'm afraid I can't leave even if I want to?"
Qing Ye was stunned for a moment, his face showing a little embarrassment, Qi Zhengkun looked at him calmly and asked, "How did you know that?"
"You can ask this question, maybe Master Qing hasn't told you the origins of our father and son." Wang Jingzhe sighed, turned his head and asked, "Uncle, why?"
Qing Ye turned his head to the side, his lips trembled slightly, Qi Zhengkun narrowed his eyes and said: "Of course it's for me? I am his son, he is my father, everything he does is naturally for me"
"Then what are you doing for?"
Qi Zhengkun spread his hands and said with a smile: "Of course it's for the Lianshan and Guizang on you. Who doesn't want good things?"
Wang Jingzhe asked in surprise: "What does practicing Baguazhang have to do with this?"
"I learned the Eight Diagrams Dragon Palm, but my master is from the Xuanmen Mountain School..."
The Xuanmen Mountain lineage is the most practice-oriented of the Five Xuanmen lineages. It is proficient in alchemy, magic and talismans, and is the one that desires Lianshan and Guizang the most. Just like Yi Tianyi, Yi Susu and the master met in the capital before, they are the Xiang lineage, who look at the mountains, the water, and the people.
