After Li Jin Nian left, a figure walked out from behind the screen.
He came in front of Wang Pingchang and greeted,""Grandpa Yuan Hui."
"You heard it, right?"
Wang Pingchang's gaze fell on the woman in front of him, and a kind smile appeared on his lips.
The woman nodded.
The woman was none other than the blind date that Wang Pingchang was going to introduce to Li Jinnian.
Qin Shuying.
Li Jin Nian was also unaware that Qin Shuying was sitting behind the screen when he and Wang Pingchang were discussing the alliance.
Including the matter of arranging for them to get to know each other.
In fact, Wang Pingchang had asked Qin Shuying for his opinion.
After she agreed, Wang Pingchang took the initiative to mention this matter to Li Jinnian.
"Have a seat."
Wang Pingchang smiled kindly.
Just like he said before, Qin Wang was his student, so naturally, they had an extraordinary relationship.
He had watched Qin Shuying grow up and had always called him grandpa.
Yuan Hui was also his character.
Usually, only the grandchildren of old friends would call him Grandpa Yuan Hui.
"What do you think of Assistant Minister Li?”
Wang Pingchang asked after Qin Shuying sat down.
"I think he's very interesting."
Qin Shuying said.
Her answer made Wang Pingchang laugh.
He was a young man after all. His thoughts were indeed different from those of the old men.
"Other than that?"
Wang Pingchang continued to ask.
"I feel like he's different from the people I've met before.”
This time, Qin Shuying answered after thinking for a while.
" The views and opinions that he proposed are something that we have never heard of before. I'm even curious as to how he came up with them.”
"I keep feeling that he's not the same kind of person as us.”
Qin Shuying told him everything she felt.
"He's too advanced."
Wang Pingchang commented.
"It is precisely because it is ahead of time that it seems out of place in this world.”
In the past two days, he had interacted a lot with Li Jin Nian.
His understanding of him was also constantly increasing.
Wang Pingchang felt that although he was fifty years older than him, he did not seem to know as much as him.
Therefore, when Wang Pingchang interacted with Li Jin Nian, he felt that he was the student and Li Jin Nian was the teacher.
He had taught him many things.
"Yes, that's why I'm even more curious about his past experiences.”
"It's hard to imagine what he went through to become like this.”
Qin Shuying said seriously.
"What does Your Majesty think of him now?"
Wang Pingchang suddenly changed the topic.
Few people knew that it was his idea to let Qin Shuying enter the palace.
Other than assisting the empress, it also played a monitoring role.
This did not mean that Wang Pingchang had any disloyalty.
It was because he knew the empress too well and was afraid that she would do something foolish.
"It's hard to say."
Qin Shuying hesitated.
"In the beginning, I felt that His Majesty hated Li Jin Nian to the core.”
"However, her hostility towards Li Jin Nian slowly decreased after that. She even said that Li Jin Nian entered the palace last night.”
"Her Majesty's attitude is also very good. Whatever Li Jin Nian's request is, she will satisfy it.”
After listening to Qin Shuying, Wang Pingchang nodded.
At the same time, he heaved a sigh of relief.
It seemed that the current Emperor was not so muddle-headed as to be unreasonable.
At least she knew how important Li Jin Nian was, so she didn't dare to offend him.
"Shuying, do you still remember what Li Jin Nian said at the end?”
Wang Pingchang looked at her.
"That sentence,'I will guard for you for all the people in the world'?”
Qin Shuying blurted out.
Because she had a deep impression of this sentence.
When Li Jin Nian said this, she was behind the screen and felt a surge of emotions.
It was also at that moment that Li Jin Nian's image in her heart became extremely lofty.
It was like the sun in the sky, shining brightly!
"Yes."
Wang Pingchang nodded slightly.
"Do you know why he didn't say that I'll guard this place for you?”
"Because his loyalty isn't to Da Feng, but to the people of the world.”
Hearing this, Qin Shuying fell silent.
Without a doubt, this was a terrifying thought.
"Shuying, if there comes a day when His Majesty and Assistant Minister Li are on opposing sides, which side will you stand on?”
What Qin Shuying didn't expect was that Wang Pingchang immediately threw out a rather tricky question.
After a moment of contemplation, she gave her answer.
"I choose Assistant Minister Li."
Hearing this answer, Wang Pingchang's face revealed a relieved smile.
He reached out and patted Qin Shuying's shoulder.
"Good child, Grandpa didn't misjudge you.”
"Grandpa might not be able to see that day, but you will.”
"When that day comes, remember to come to Grandpa's grave and tell him about that golden age.”
"Grandpa Yuan Hui."
Qin Shuying opened her mouth slightly, feeling inexplicably sad.
"You will definitely see it too."
she said firmly.
Just now, when she was behind the screen, Li Jin Nian said something like this.
"The people are the most important, the country is second, and the monarch is the least important. As a ruler, you have to love and benefit the people, reduce punishment and taxes, listen to the government of the people, and enjoy happiness with the people.”
These words shocked Qin Shuying.
Because when she was very young, Wang Pingchang had instilled this idea in her.
So she knew that Wang Pingchang's lifelong wish was to usher in such a golden age, where the ruler could truly respect, respect, and love the people.
Qin Shuying felt that this idea was impossible to achieve, like a castle in the air.
Ethereal.
However, Li Jin Nian's appearance gave her and Wang Pingchang hope.
Perhaps Da Feng would really change because of him!
"I hope so."
Wang Pingchang smiled.
He knew that even if Li Jin Nian could do it, he would still have to walk a long way.
However, he was already old and should not be able to wait until that day.
Seeing Wang Pingchang's expression, Qin Shuying secretly made up her mind.
If Li Jin Nian needed help, she would definitely do her best.
Let that day come sooner.
Let Grandpa Yuan Hui see it.
……
……
Li Jin Nian didn't know that Qin Shuying was hiding behind the screen and eavesdropping on his conversation with Wang Pingchang.
He didn't know.
Qin Shuying was actually Wang Pingchang's spy beside the empress.
It was getting late when they left Wang Pingchang's mansion.
The sun was about to set.
Li Jin Nian seized the time to go to the Ministry of Works.
When he arrived, the imperial sword was already ready.
Wei Chunlai and the others knew that this was a treasured sword bestowed by the current Emperor, so they did not dare to slack off. All the materials used were the best.
As for the forging method, they used the steel pouring method that Li Jin Nian had taught them yesterday.
"Lord Li, do you want to give it a try?"
Wei Chunlai said to Li Jinnian.
Wei Chunlai was very excited after the sword was forged.
Because this was the hardest and sharpest sword he had ever forged.
"Yes."
Li Jin Nian nodded.
He was also quite curious and wanted to see if this sword was good to use.
Then, he plucked a strand of hair and placed it on the blade of the sword, blowing it gently.
As expected, his hair instantly split into two.
Wei Chunlai and the other blacksmiths were in disbelief.
They had already tested how sharp the sword was, but they didn't think of using hair to test it.
It seemed that he could blow and break his hair.
Li Jin Nian took out 20 copper coins and placed them together.
As Li Jin Nian raised his sword, the copper coin was split into two.
Then, Li Jin Nian asked Wei Chunlai to bring over an ordinary sword.
It was the kind that Wei Chunlai and the others had created before. They did not use the Forged Steel Method.
Li Jin Nian waved his sword and was about to slash down.
" Lord Li," Wei Chunlai quickly said," this is a treasured sword bestowed by His Majesty. It's so exquisite. Wouldn't it be bad if it was broken?"”
Li Jin Nian's hand that was holding the sword stopped in mid-air. He smiled at him and said,""Is Uncle Wei that unconfident in his own sword?”
Wei Chunlai scratched his head and said,""That's not the case. I just think that this sword is very beautiful. Even if I leave a mark on the sword, it will affect its appearance.”
Upon hearing his words, the smile on Li Jin Nian's face grew wider.
The next moment, he waved the sword in his hand and slashed at the ordinary long sword on the table.
"Clang!"
The long sword below was split into two, and even the table was split into two.
"Uncle Wei, who told you that this sword is for show?”
Li Jin Nian kept his sword and looked at Wei Chunlai. A playful smile appeared on his face.
"Can't it be used to kill people?”
