Heiankyo love story

Chapter 73 The Saint's Ideal

"The mission of the Star Clan...?"

King Ma Cang Ye repeated the word meaningfully, and immediately changed the subject in order not to reveal more emotions.

"So, after the mission is completed, what is Xue Ji's plan?"

Jiang Xue was stunned by the question, and subconsciously slowed down.

"After the mission... is completed?"

After Bailong Shenzi summoned the Dragon God and saved Heianjing?

At that time, she will leave from this dreamlike journey, the only difference is the time of departure and whether there are other people around before leaving.

When Jiang Xue thought about it, her confused thoughts became clear again, and she replied with a smile: "After the mission is completed, I will naturally know."

King Ma Cang Ye couldn't help laughing and said: "Xue Ji's statement...it seems to be living 'for a mission'."

"For the mission?" Jiang Xue couldn't help chuckling, and said without thinking, "No, I've always lived only for myself—whether it's fame, fortune, power, or mission...it doesn't matter! I just want to be I want to soar in the sky where I want to spread my wings, chase the scenery I want to see, and live happily. No matter how noble the reason is, if something will bind me and make me lose my freedom, I will not care about the consequences, and the golden cage will be smashed !"

Jiang Xue spoke excitedly, stretched out her hand to the sky, and clenched her fist hard, as if she was going to smash something hard.

"Ah, by the way, there is a saying that goes like this, although it's not very good, but I personally like it - after I die, even if it's a flood!"

Jiang Xue has been getting tired of being with Yuangong Qian all this time. Although this strategy did succeed in gaining Yuangong Qian's favor, it also indirectly caused Jiang Xue to break away from the "aristocratic association" in Ping'an Jing, and be with the simple Yuan Gongqian naturally wouldn't bother too much when she was together, Jiang Xue unknowingly relaxed the cordon in her heart, plus this time it was her dear friend she met in Ping'an Jing, she always Being inattentive is like chatting with friends in modern times, speaking too freely.

Jiang Xue didn't immediately notice something was wrong, until she saw the astonished expression on Ma Cang Ye Wang's face, she suddenly remembered that Ma Cang Ye Wang did not come from later generations like Yuan Gongqian, but an onmyoji born and raised in Ping An Jing , responsible for protecting Ping'an Jing, she just said in front of Ma Cang Ye Wang, "Even if the flood is tornado after death", it sounds even more rampant than ghosts, no wonder Ma Cang Ye Wang has a wrong expression.

King Macang Ye seemed stunned by Jiang Xue's words, and remained silent with an expression of surprise and uncertainty.

The atmosphere became very awkward for a while, Jiang Xue could almost see those embarrassing black lines in the background of the screen.

However, the hole he dug has to be filled by himself. Jiang Xue bit the bullet and smoothed things over with her self-esteem as a raider.

"...Well, Asakura-kun can't tell others about these things? If people know that 'Hime-kun of the Fujiwara family' and 'Yuki-hime of the Hoshi Clan' have such thoughts...it will be very troublesome."

King Ma Cang Ye still didn't speak, but the corner of his mouth moved slightly.

Ah... still silent...

super embarrassing...

Jiang Xue barely maintained a "gentle" smile, and after a while, she sighed helplessly.

If you can't do anything, just go through today's events casually, and go back and read the file.

She actually capsized in the gutter, said something wrong and stepped on a big hole in a non-incident place. If Cang Cang knew about this, she would probably laugh until next year.

Just when Jiang Xue was about to give up, King Ma Cang Ye finally spoke.

He smiled softly and immediately relieved the awkward atmosphere at the scene.

"Yeah, it seemed that there was too much noise earlier. I didn't hear what Xueji said. I'm really sorry. Can Xueji repeat it?"

Hearing these words, Jiang Xue almost slipped and fell into the pond.

The wind was too strong and I couldn't hear clearly—could this be a special dialogue for Onmyoji!

Jiang Xue couldn't help but look at the onmyoji who was wearing a white safari on the opposite side, to make sure that it wasn't Sakurazukamori pretending to be, and then let go of the subconsciously raised heart.

As long as this sentence does not come from that perverted onmyoji, then... it should be a vague statement, and those words did not exist before the present, right?

...Also, this kind of "reserved opinion" is the best result compared to turning faces on the spot.

She can't expect people in Heianjing to agree with her extreme individualism, can she?

Think about it when she was recovering from her injuries before, she chatted too happily with Tianyi, she said Ning Weiyu Sui's words without paying attention, and Tianyi also adopted the "reserved opinion" of neither agreeing nor opposing.

Are all the people in Heian-kyo like this?

Do not……

It's just because Tianyi and King Ma Cang Ye are very gentle.

Even if they have different ideas, they avoided the possibility of verbal conflicts and chose a gentle way of answering.Both of them, equally, place more weight on her feelings than on asserting their own.

Jiang Xue raised her hand to hold her heart, thanked her for her kindness again, and silently reminded herself to be more careful, it can’t always be like this, once she gets acquainted with people, she becomes complacent and careless, and said with a smile: "I just... just wanted to ask , What about Ma Cang-kun's ideal? What is Ma Cang-kun living for?"

King Ma Cang Ye looked at Jiang Xue quietly for a few seconds, and replied with a gentle smile: "I want to create a world... where there are no disputes, no wars, and where man and nature live in harmony."

"..."

Jiang Xue felt as if she suddenly understood Ma Cang Ye Wang's mood after hearing her wild words just now.

Sure enough, apart from silence and a smile, there is no other reaction at all.

If she just wants to be the emperor, conquer the world, and destroy the world, she is not surprised. There are many lines to deal with. King Ma Cangye doesn't follow the routine at all. Why are people in the Heian era actually environmentalists? Or, how does this make her, a person who "human beings struggle to the top of the food chain not to eat grass", answer.

I feel completely lost.

She only thinks about herself, this one only thinks about all human beings and the whole world, the difference in realm is too far, no wonder he is a genius onmyoji, she is just a bastard...

However, if you keep silent, the atmosphere will be very awkward again.

After Jiang Xue did some psychological construction, she responded with a smile: "This is really... a great ideal."

Ma Cang Ye Wang smiled self-deprecatingly, and asked, "Don't Xue Ji think my thoughts are too arrogant?"

"No, I think your ideal is great."

Jiang Xue was so shocked that she even forgot the title "Ma Cangjun" and said "you" directly.

"This ideal...is the ideal of a sage. The ancient sages also proposed such a concept...the Taoist 'harmony of man and nature' contains such a concept. Throughout the ages, there have been people who have been pursuing the same spirit... ..."

While talking, Jiang Xue also got rid of the embarrassment, her thoughts became smoother, and she sighed sincerely.

"It's a pity. If Ma Cang-jun had been born a thousand years earlier, he might have been able to sit down and discuss the Dao with other scholars. It's a pity that in this era... there are very few true sages. There are many mediocre people and many fools. It has always been the wise who work harder I'm sorry, but I... can't reach such a state, I'm just a layman floating in the world, Ma Cang-kun's ideal... I'm afraid I can't help you much."

After a short silence, King Ma Cang Ye suddenly stretched his expression and smiled very gently.

"Thank you, Xue Ji."

"Huh? Huh?" Jiang Xue was a little flustered by this unexpected answer, "Why thank you?"

King Ma Cang Ye kept that smile and said softly: "You are the first person who didn't laugh at me after hearing my dream."

"Hey--?"

Jiang Xue was a little embarrassed for a while.

So other people laughed at King Makang Yeh after hearing it?

How should I put it, should I use Bruno and Copernicus as examples?

It is difficult for anyone who proposes an idea beyond the times to be recognized by the contemporary era. It is considered lucky not to be burned at the stake.

Jiang Xue thought for a while and said with certainty: "Summer worms can't talk about ice, well frogs can't talk about sea. Shu dogs bark at the sun, Gein is ignorant. Those who laugh at you now will be laughed at thousands of years later!" Trust me, Asakura-kun!"

Seeing Jiang Xue's unusually confident expression, King Ma Cang Ye suddenly laughed.

"Thousands of years later... I'm not here anymore, so what does it matter who laughs at whom?"

"That's right." Jiang Xue nodded, then changed her words suddenly, "It's not necessarily true. Maybe at that time, it will be recorded in the history books that there was a famous onmyoji Ma Cang Yewang in Ping'an capital, and those who laughed at you didn't know that at all. Qualifications leave records, not to mention millennia, maybe decades later, no one will know what they are."

King Ma Cang Ye said dumbfoundingly: "Xue Ji, the 'A, B, B, C, D' you mentioned... there are quite a few 'Honorable People'."

Dian Shangren in Heian Jing refer to people who are qualified to go to the palace to meet the emperor. They are usually of noble birth and have more than five official positions. They can be described as the most noble group of people in Heian Jing.

Jiang Xue didn't have a good impression of these nobles, and now that she is at Fujihara's house, no outsiders can hear what she said, so she laughed very bluntly: "Don't say that after a thousand years, it will be a change of dynasty. No one who manages household registration remembers the former officials. If you ask people who lived thousands of years ago, are the general public more likely to remember legends, or are they more likely to remember the names of officials? If you want to be remembered, you can It can’t be done by relying on blood, family background, or status!”

"...Should I say..."

King Ma Cang Ye smiled and tucked a strand of hair behind his ear.

"The wind is too loud?"

Jiang Xue was speechless for a moment, and after a while she said bitterly: "Yes, today's wind is indeed very strong, and it even blows Ma Cang-kun to Fujiwara's house."

King Ma Cang Ye smiled without saying a word.

It didn't take long for the two of them to arrive at Fujihime's yard.

Yuan Gongqian excitedly waited at the door, and when she saw Jiang Xue bringing someone back, she immediately went up to meet her.

"Xue, you're back! Ah, Ma Cang-sama!"

Yuan Gongqian hurriedly saluted.

"Thank you in advance, I am Yuan Gongqian, nice to meet you."

King Ma Cang Ye saluted respectfully, calling "His Royal Highness Son of God", and then looked at Jiang Xue from the corner of his eye, the meaning in his eyes was obvious.

——This habit of running out from behind the curtain must have been brought up by you.
