C378 What a Pair of Scourges
Facing Gu Yunci's heart-wrenching words.
Ji Guan could only respond with silence.
In fact, he knew better than anyone else that the Ji family was facing a crisis.
The Ji family had been passed down for so many years, and the number of members of the imperial clan alone had reached hundreds of thousands.
However, among these hundreds of thousands of people, not a single one of them had the talent to become a teacher.
As a result, even though Ji Guan had stepped into the coffin with one foot, there was still no heir.
To the entire Ji family, this was a sad thing.
When Ji Guan was instructing Wende Emperor earlier, he showed the intention of inviting Gu Yunci and Ye Xun to a banquet.
In fact, he wanted to find a backer for the Ji family.
He didn't want the Ji family to become the target of the ambitious families after Ji Guan burped.
However, Ji Guan had given up on this idea.
Gu Yunci and Ye Xun were dragons and phoenixes among men. How could the tiny Ji family be tied up?
"Teacher Ji, although my words are a little unpleasant to the ears."
"I am also thinking about your Ji family."
"Given Teacher Ji's current situation, it is better to make plans as soon as possible."
Gu Yunci saw what was happening and said in a flat tone.
Although his tone was flat, there was a hint of him asking for my guidance.
Ji Guan heard this and raised his head in shock.
He wasn't stupid.
Gu Yunci had already made it so obvious. No matter how he looked at it, it seemed like he had come prepared.
"What exactly do they want?"
Ji Guan was shocked and confused.
But now that things had come to this point, there was no need for him to think too much.
If he could solve the crisis of the Ji family, which was a threat of extinction, he would be willing to pay any price for it.
Immediately, Ji Guan took a deep breath and asked in a deep voice.
"Teacher Gu, please teach me!"
As he spoke, he suddenly stood up and bowed deeply towards Gu Yunci.
Gu Yunci heard this and shook his head.
"You should ask my junior about this."
"My junior, Ye Xun, is extremely talented. He always has his own wonderful ideas. If he is able to run amok, he can be called a genius! “
"If he is willing to help your Ji family, he will be able to resolve the crisis of your Ji family."
Ji Guan was shocked when he heard this.
Firstly, he didn't expect Gu Yunci to have such a high evaluation of Ye Xun.
Secondly, this undoubtedly proved that Gu Yunci and Ye Xun had come prepared. Perhaps they had ulterior motives.
However, after thinking for a long time, Ji Guan still couldn't figure out why their tiny Ji family was worth the schemes of these two geniuses.
"Ye... Teacher Ye."
Ji Guan regained his senses and looked at Ye Xun hesitantly.
He saw a smile on Ye Xun's face. His expression was calm, but he didn't say anything.
Seeing this, Ji Guan gritted his teeth.
He bowed toward Ye Xun.
"Please teach me, Teacher Ye."
"If Teacher Ye can resolve the crisis of Ji family, we are willing to pay any price!"
He had thought it through clearly.
As long as the Ji family could avoid this crisis, what could they do even if they had to pay some price?
Speaking of which, the Ji family had made a profit.
"Teacher Ji, please rise."
Ye Xun waved his hand.
After that, he turned to look at Gu Yunci and sighed faintly.
"Senior, you really know how to find trouble for me."
"Hahaha, capable people do more work."
Gu Yunci laughed.
However, after laughing a few times, Gu Yunci stopped smiling.
"Junior, Teacher Ji is a loyal man, and the Ji family has been ruling Chi Sheng for more than a thousand years. There are many who are the rulers."
"Although the national power has declined, as part of the royal family, they shouldn't have faced such a disaster."
The calamity in Gu Yunci's words referred to the possibility of the Ji family being purged by ambitious families after losing their old ancestor.
When Ye Xun heard this, he revealed a hesitant expression.
"Although I have a way to resolve the crisis of Ji family..."
"But..."
Ye Xun paused for a moment.
Gu Yunci, who was standing at the side, immediately followed his words.
"But what?"
"Junior, if you have any difficulties, just say it."
"Teacher Ji is an honest man, and you're willing to help him. Could it be that he will just stand by and do nothing about your matter?"
"Impossible!"
Gu Yunci could be said to have been entrusted by Old Dog. The moment he opened his mouth, he directly squeezed Ji Guan to the point that he could not say anything else.
Sure enough, he could only smile bitterly and say to Ye Xun.
"Teacher Ye, if you need anything from Ji Guan, just say it."
Gu Yunci had already said so much just now, what else could he say?
Gu Yunci, who was standing at the side, immediately started hitting the snake with his stick.
"Junior, did you see that?"
"Ji Shi is an honest and straightforward person, right?"
"You, stop hiding it."
Ye Xun heard this and nodded reluctantly.
He pondered for a moment and said.
"Alright, since senior and Teacher Ji have already said all that."
"If I continue to shirk from them, it won't make sense."
"Actually, I don't have any difficulties. It's purely because I have emotions in my heart."
"It has been a while since I have settled in Chi Sheng."
"But along the way... Sigh, the people are suffering."
"Like the Fengyi County, the civilians are suffering to the point of becoming Yi Zi's food."
"So if Teacher Ji has free time, he might as well remind the current king to let him... put more focus on governing the country."
"Hai, this Ye's words are purely filled with emotion, it really makes senior and Teacher Ji laugh."
As he speaks, Ye Xun smiles "shyly."
When Gu Yunci heard this, his face could not help but reveal a look of "admiration."
"Junior, you have the heart to care for all living things in the world."
"This is an act of benevolence and righteousness. As a senior, why would I make fun of you?"
"Teacher Ji, am I right?"
This pair of scourge sang the same tune, directly saying the good ones and the bad ones.
At this point, what else could Ji Guan say?
He could only express his gratitude to Ye Xun.
"Teacher Ye cares so much about the world of Ji family. He is truly a righteous man."
"Ji Guan usually does not ask about politics, but he does not know that the people are in such a miserable state!"
"Teacher Ye, don't worry. I will go and scold that unfilial son later."
"He has a great empire, but he has managed it so well. Really... I'm so angry!"
Ji Guan said, revealing an embarrassed and angry expression.
He had never thought that Little Bigu, whom he thought highly of, would be so pathetic.
This mother * cker, this was simply a prodigal son!
A kingdom left behind by a defeated ancestor!
However, while Ji Guan was furious, he could not help but feel puzzled in his heart.
Could it be that Ye Xun's request was only this?
What kind of f * cking request was this?
It was all for the sake of the Ji family.
"I am here to thank Teacher Ji on behalf of all the people in the world."
Ye Xun shamelessly represented all the people in the world.
These words almost made Ji Guan feel ashamed.
He became more and more angry at Little Bigu in his heart.
Damn it, an outsider had to worry about his own empire.
What was going on?
"Teacher Ji, senior."
"The main reason why Ji family is in a crisis right now is because Teacher Ji, your lifespan is about to run out."
"Without your protection, the royal family of Ji family will be targeted by those ambitious people hiding in the dark."
"Actually... this matter is very easy to solve."
"Teacher Ji, if you continue to increase the lifespan, all the problems will be solved."
Ye Xun finally got to the main topic.
However, once he said this, Ji Guan couldn't help but feel disappointed.
Increase the lifespan?
Do you think I never thought of it?
But if the lifespan is so easy to increase, why should I be so worried?
However, Ji Guan naturally wouldn't say these words of ridicule in his heart.
He looked at Ye Xun and shook his head.
"Teacher Ye, I have considered all of these things that you have said."2
"It's a pity that I have already consumed Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures that can increase the lifespan's strength in my early years."
"If I continue to consume it now, it won't have any effect."
"Taking a step back, even if these Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures can be used, it will only increase the lifespan's effect by a few years. It's nothing more than a drop of water in a cart of firewood."
"It won't be able to solve the crisis of our Ji family."
