~7 min read 1,246 words

No general in the Qin state could beat Wang Wang Jian in a sand table game!

What did this Ying Su mean?

Sent the general under his command to challenge him?

Was this to give him a warning?

Wang Wang Jian frowned tightly!

Finally, he wiped the white lime off his face, gave up pretending, sat directly opposite Han Xin, and said to Han Xin: "Please!"

At that moment, the two surrounded the sand table, started to fight, and started to confront each other!

Representing the black flag was Wang Wang Jian, while Han Xin represented the red flag!

At that moment, the red and black flags fought on the sand table like that!

On the other side!

In the back garden of Wang Wang Jian's house!

It was quiet here, only Ying Su and Wang Lan were there.

Wang Ben and Wang Li wanted to follow.

Wanted to see what Ying Su wanted to do to Wang Lan!

Why, among so many people in the Wang family, he only wanted to find Wang Lan!

They were really worried!

But... they didn't dare! They didn't dare at all!

Outside the back garden, there were two hundred garrison troops led by Yu Yu Huatian.

Inside the back garden, there were six eunuchs and servants re-assigned, standing far away, waiting to serve at any time!

And Ying Su, together with Wang Lan, were kneeling on mats facing each other!

However... at this time, Wang Lan was far from as lively as before.

Looking at Ying Su, she was flustered and scared!

"Are you afraid of me?"

Ying Su looked at her with a smile!

Recalling the scene three months ago when this little girl suddenly appeared in front of him, he still felt it was a bit funny!

Wang Lan grabbed her own clothes, looked up at Ying Su, and finally nodded: "A little!"

"Oh?"

"Why?"

Ying Su asked, while picking up a wine pot to pour himself a cup of fine wine.

But after only taking one sip, he shook his head and poured the wine away.

Finally, he beckoned to Chongxin!

Chongxin understood instantly!

Immediately brought over a small bottle.

At the same time, servants and eunuchs quickly brought over plates, with various pastries and various fruits.

And the moment she saw the pastries, Wang Lan's eyes lit up.

Although she didn't know what those things were, just looking at their white-red, red-white, and exquisite appearance, the light in her eyes kept flashing!

Watching Ying Su pick up a piece of pastry and take a bite, she couldn't help but swallow her saliva.

At this moment, she was really about to cry from hunger.

Finally, without knowing it, she stood up from her side and moved toward Ying Su!

Ying Su, seeing her like this, was about to laugh out loud, directly picked up a piece of pastry, and smiled at her: "Want to eat?"

"Mm-hmm!"

Wang Lan's eyes were shining, nodding her head!

Ying Su smiled: "You can eat, but you have to tell me why you are afraid of me!"

"Ah?"

Wang Lan was conflicted, suddenly not knowing how to say it.

Ying Su handed her a piece of pastry: "It's okay, eat, you can tell me after you finish eating!"

"Mm-hmm!"

Wang Lan nodded repeatedly, and finally, took a taste of that piece of pastry!

And with this bite, she felt like her whole person was flying.

Soft and glutinous, melting in the mouth, this... this was a taste she had never experienced at all!

Especially... there was a sweet fragrance, which almost intoxicated her.

In the blink of an eye, after finishing one, she wanted to eat the next one.

And Ying Su stopped her and smiled: "You have to keep your word; you finished one, but you haven't said why you are afraid of me!"

Wang Lan sighed: "Okay! But you have to promise me that you won't get angry after you know!"

Ying Su said: "Okay, I promise I won't get angry!"

Wang Lan said: "They say you are not a good person, and you kill people indiscriminately whenever you get angry!"

"At first, I was curious about you just because I learned that you rebelled and actually killed fifty thousand garrison troops in Xianyanggong with only one person!"

"I was extremely curious about you, so I wanted to see you!"

"But... this time, I'm not curious about you anymore, I'm very afraid of you!"

"Because... I saw with my own eyes how your men kill people!"

"That Huang Chao, he is too ruthless; there were three hundred people in Bai Qi's family, but he killed them until only one steward and one child remained!"

"Some people say that if our family hadn't been sensible, you would have killed everyone in our family too!"

"My father, my grandfather, and my brother, none of them would have survived!"

"They all say you are not a good person, you are a bad person, a devil, so... I am very afraid of you!"

Ying Su nodded, looked at Wang Lan with a smile: "Then do you think I am a good person? Or a devil?"

Wang Lan frowned: "Hard to say, very hard to say!"

Ying Su said: "What's hard to say? If you think I'm a good person, I'm a good person; if you think I'm a bad person, I'm a bad person!"

"Ah?"

Wang Lan was stunned: "Isn't that too arbitrary? That's too unfair to you!"

Ying Su smiled:

"Isn't the world like this? To judge whether a person is good or bad, why listen to what others say? Just follow your heart!"

"Take my father the Emperor for example; in my heart, he is the supreme monarch who unified the world, and even more, the supreme emperor who pacified several hundred years of war!"

"But in the hearts of many commoners, he doesn't have so many halos; he is just a tyrant, an executioner!"

"Even... in the eyes of many commoners, if there were no Ying Zheng in this world, they would have lived a peaceful life long ago!"

"Do you think the father in my heart is the real Ying Zheng, or is the Ying Zheng in the commoners' hearts the real Ying Zheng?"

As the question was asked, Wang Lan's head was buzzing!

After a while! She spoke a few words: "All things bear yin and embrace yang, and the qi is harmonized!"

As the words left her mouth, Ying Su was surprised and couldn't help but look at Wang Lan in front of him!

Because, what she said was a passage from the Tao Te Ching!

All things bear yin and embrace yang, and the qi is harmonized.

And the meaning of this passage is that everything has two sides; when it comes to the level of good and bad people, it means that no one can be judged simply as good or bad!

At that moment, he looked at Wang Lan and couldn't help but smile!

In his eyes, there was an extra bit of appreciation!

This girl is truly not simple; there is wisdom in her chest!

She sees things clearly!

He sighed in his heart, and at the same time, handed a piece of pastry to Wang Lan, and said with a smile:

"Then tell me, are you still afraid of me now?"

"Ah?"

Wang Lan was stunned, seeing herself so close to Ying Su, at that moment, she instantly returned to her side!
