Chapter 811 Thanks
“Seven brats?” If it is one of them, it is indeed an unexpected surprise, but now, I am more inclined to think that he is a slave or a guard. It can also be called a trigger.
It may be a series of functions, a bit like Gandalf. "
"So, Lord, what should we do next? Liang Cheng said, "Continue to search... those demon kings who may still be children?"
The blind man smiled and said; "Are you afraid that it will be too boring after closing the net in advance?"
Siniang said: "If everything is like this every day, at least for now, it is really nothing. So scared, and it has been confirmed, The impact of our actions is not within the predictions of the prophecy.
For example, we captured Hei Jia this time, relying on the strength of our Hou Mansion. ”
The human sea tactics. When you have the advantage, there is no need to fight alone.
The blind man threw the freshly peeled orange to Fan Li,
Said:
“My lord, my subordinate’s suggestion is that you should look for it, look for it, just let it happen. If you can find a few, it will be a surprise. If you really can’t find it, it doesn’t matter.
Having taken the lead, we really have nothing to fear, and our subordinates are even a little eager to try.
Our previous worry was that we were afraid of the prophesied devil. Awakening is the peak, so for us, it is really too passive. For example, if it is stuck in the throat, it is equivalent to a knife on our neck.
Looking at it now, although it cannot be said that everything is under control. , but we have already sat at the card table, we are participants, and we have also shared a certain amount of power to formulate the rules of the game
It's up to me to take the initiative, don't panic. ”
What the blind man said is the consensus of everyone.
Life has to go on, enjoy your career, enjoy your career, enjoy your life, enjoy your life. The blind man is a group of careerists, Even Zheng Fan, who has always been leisurely, is deep in his heart He also has a rebellious spirit;
but he does not have the ideological baggage of being the "founder of the country" and the sentiment of working tirelessly to clear obstacles for future generations.
In short, that's it. , no matter how floods come after my death!
A Ming took a sip of wine,
jokingly said:
“The dragon clouds in the sky are changing in a shocking way, and the wind and clouds will swim in the shallow water.”
The blind man said indifferently: “My Lord He will treat Tiantian as his own son."
There is no water in these words.
King Jingnan is such a person, if he didn't value the specialness of his lord, he would not choose to foster his son with him.
This is actually the key to Tian Wujing’s original change of attitude. In the past, he saw the “nature” of Zheng Fan’s temperament, so he would suppress it from time to time. But later, very absurdly, this Zheng Fan is the only person in the world who really doesn't have any interests as his goal and is willing to do whatever it takes for his "nature".
Zheng Fan clapped his hands and said
;
"The tone of this matter has been set first, and it will remain unchanged in the face of changes. Heijia's identity, Blind man, you are responsible for following up. I don’t believe that such a person will have no name in the history of the Helian family. Digging out his life will help us better grasp the prophecy information.”
"Yes, I understand. I will send someone to Quhe City immediately."
"A Ming."
"My subordinate is here."
"You Don’t rest any longer. I’ll find you something to do.”
“Please give me your orders.”
"Go to Yingdu first, then go to Litian, Quhe, or even go to Yanjing City with my handwritten letter. Regarding the oath of alliance between the three princes, we have to find out the specific records. Although we can roughly understand the general meaning. I want to make a guess, but I want to know the details."
"Yes, my lord, I understand. I will set off tonight."
It's actually very simple for him to set off. Serve the wine and you're good to go.
Xue San was a little confused and said: "Isn't it because the job with the blind man is too heavy?"
The blind man said; "No culture."
Xue San drooped his eyelids, waiting for an explanation.
The blind man took out another orange,
said:
“It is impossible to believe the records passed down from mouth to mouth eight hundred years ago. We can only rely on ancient books. Looking for the three main families of the Jin Dynasty, Helian, Wenren, and Situ are still too young and immature compared to the time of the Three Marquises.
So, whether they are going to Yingdu, Litian or Quhe, it is just a formality. .
The original Jin Kingdom Palace had long been deserted. In the end, if you want to find real clues, you still have to go to Yanjing. "
Sixiang said; "The blind man is right. If you want to preserve things like ancient books well, they must be protected by a strong and lasting political power.
The orthodoxy of the Jin Kingdom has long since declined, and the Imperial Palace of the Jin Kingdom was even ransacked by us. We did not pay attention to the existence of any classics back then. ”
Speaking of this,
all the demon kings present looked a little unnatural, even the Lord looked a little embarrassed.
At that time, Zheng Fan was about to be transferred to the city guard of Shengle City, and he needed to open up a new map. He was short of start-up funds, but even the gold statues in the Ancestral Temple of the Jin Dynasty Palace were scraped off;
All the valuables were shipped away. The so-called "cultural treasures" such as classics and documents were worthless in the turbulent Jin Dynasty at that time, and they were extremely troublesome and cumbersome to carry around. Many of them were even burned during looting.
So, strictly speaking, later historians can fully criticize their original short-sighted atrocities and "destruction" and "destruction" of Jin culture.
As for the current Pingxi Hou Mansion and the current Jindong, although it can be called a small "strong army and strong horse", after all, they have just defeated the Chu State with their own efforts; commerce and trade are also extremely developed, and hundreds of industries are visible to the naked eye. prosperity, but it is indeed a "cultural desert".
As Zheng Fan said before, he asked A Ming to go to Yingdu and other three former "capitals" of the Jin region to see it. It was just to try his luck. After the Yan people broke into the Jin region, they and Zheng Fan and others What people did in the Jin Dynasty's Gyeonggi Palace is really that the elder brother does not laugh at the second brother. After all, they are both Qiu Ba under the Black Dragon flag;
It is too fanciful to make the Yan army know how to cherish the culture of Jin and preserve ancient books and so on. The Yan people are "barbarians" at heart and generally have no "culture".
The only one worthy of hope is Yanjing, because the Yan people have protected their country from the beginning to the end, even when they were fighting the barbarians the most fiercely.
"Then why should A Ming go? Just write a letter..."
The blind man shook his head and said to Xue San; Having been around for a long time, Emperor Yan also knew A Ming. Only by asking A Ming to write a letter in his own hand could he more easily find similar records in Yanjing City.
There is something secretly hidden here. Meaning.”
The three princes swore not to betray Daxia, but Daxia still died, and what followed was the establishment of Dayan, Dajin, and Dachu. Obviously, the ancestors of each family did not behave in this matter. of.
Usually when a letter comes over, it may be sent away casually.
Only by relying on the relationship between the Lord and Emperor Yan, and then having the Lord's cronies known to Emperor Yan go there in person, can the "door of convenience" be opened.
The blind man said again;
"My lord, I think there is a place where I can try it."
"Where?"
"Chu State."
Liang Cheng said: "The capital of Ying has been burned."
"Oh."
Zheng Fan couldn't bear it I couldn't stop laughing. After I laughed at myself to a certain extent, I really laughed out loud.
It can be seen from this that the Yan people are really the destroyers of Zhu Xia culture.
The blind man said, "There is a man in Chu State who was once the teacher of King Jingnan, and he also compiled the history books of the Four Kingdoms."
Meng Shou.
Zheng Fan was a little surprised and said; "That old guy, he's not dead yet?"
"It should be that he's not dead. After all, I didn't receive the letter. Therefore, my subordinate suggested that the princess or the It was Qu Peiluo who came forward to contact some nobles or acquaintances in Chu who were willing to do such a small favor, and go to Meng Shou to find out the information. After all, that man himself is a living fossil of history."
"Okay, it's up to you to make the arrangements."
"Yes, I understand."
"That's it. Anyone who wants to go down to see the black armor, slice it for research, etc. must inform in advance. Others, after all, this thing is kept in our house, and there is no room for carelessness."
"Yes, I understand."
"I understand."
< br>
Zheng Fan stood up and left;
Xue San smiled and said; "A bet?"
The blind man said disdainfully: "No need to bet, the Lord is going to see the child."
< br>……
“Brother, does it hurt?”
The prince stood by the bed and looked at Tiantian lying on the bed.
“It doesn’t hurt.”
“My brother lied to me, how could it not hurt.”
“Daddy beat me, it doesn’t hurt.”
The prince shook his head and said: "I don't believe it."
"Have you ever been beaten by your father?" Tiantian asked.
"No, it's just...just..."
"What is it?"
"I was drugged by my father."
"Hmm …”
"Brother, do you want breakfast? I'll feed you."
"No."
"Then I'll go eat."
"Go, brother."< br>
The prince went to have breakfast. As he ate, he felt a little happy.
After breakfast, he went to the courtyard and found that Liu Dahu was not here today, which made the prince even happier.
This kind of happiness comes from the fact that I was originally the last in the class, but after the people in front of me were absent, I was automatically promoted to the top.
The prince began to run and exercise happily alone.
I felt that the air this morning was so fresh.
Zheng Fan came to Tiantian’s house,
In his previous life, he had no children, but in this life, his two biological children are still in their mother's belly.
However, due to the lack of parental love in his previous life, Zheng Fan felt that if he became a father, he would definitely be a good father who would get along with his children and become friends with them.
Now, he found that he was thinking too much.
Standing at the door,
he knew that Tiantian was still lying on the bed, but even if he didn't step in to take a look, it was difficult to say some close and comforting words.
In the end,
Zheng Fan could only act like an extremely feudal boss. After stopping at the door, he sighed and turned to leave.
……
Chu Di,
Chen Zhai;
Meng Shou was sitting in a rocking chair, basking in the sun;
Beside him, a little boy was making tea.
His face has long been covered with age spots, and his body exudes a slightly decayed aura similar to that of an ancient collection of books.
He is dying,
He is really dying,
But he still didn't die.
At that time, when the Yan State was about to attack Chu with its entire country, after completing the "History of Yan", he bid farewell to Yanjing and decided to return to Chu. He wanted to die in his mother country.
Although he did not have a specific official position, he was so noble that he could not even compare with the prime minister. After returning to the country, he was summoned by the regent. While playing chess, he looked at the burning fire of Yingdu in the north. sky.
It was he who told the regent about the 120-year climate cycle. The regent took this as an opportunity to use bone scraping to cure poison.
But now it seems,
The situation
is not good.
Pingxihou Mansion stands in the east of Shanxi. It has no principles, but firmly adheres to certain principles.
Da Chu originally wanted to rise from the ashes, but the Pingxi Marquis killed another pillar of the country, and Da Chu lost another general.
After hearing the news,
The age spots on Meng Shou's face became heavier overnight.
After studying history all his life, it was not until that moment that he felt as if he was living in a history book.
In history books, there are always heroic figures who fight against the tide with their own strength.
Ordinary heroes are about good winds relying on their strength to follow the trend;
A real hero is one who sets off the wave himself and is able to lead it.
Ping Xihou is that kind of character.
The head of the Chen family, an old man a generation younger than Meng Shou, was waiting outside and did not dare to disturb Meng Shou's peace.
Meng Shou's original surname is Chen, and he is a child of the Chen family. However, because of his origin, his surname was changed early.
This may be the worst thing the Chen family has done in the past century.
Meng Shou opened his eyes. He had just dozed off again.
Every time he felt sleepy, he closed his eyes calmly and imagined that the next moment would be his death;
But he woke up again.
Throughout the ages, many important people have hated that day for not celebrating the New Year. Unfortunately, here, I wanted to end it but could not wait until destiny.
Seeing this, the head of the Chen family walked in with small steps, knelt down and held the junior ceremony.
"Uncle, Your Majesty will pass through Chen County after returning from the alliance. I think you will come to visit your uncle."
Meng Shou opened his eyes and glanced at the head of the Chen family.
The head of the Chen family felt that in this look, he seemed to see through all his thoughts.
"Uncle, my nephew plans to welcome His Majesty. Can you teach me about this ceremony?"
The Chen family is not a great nobleman, and even at its peak, it was nothing like the Dugu Qu family. Comparatively, with the regent's attack on the Chu nobles, the high-ranking nobles can still rely on "selling themselves" to gain new refuge. The lower-ranking nobles are more or less affectionately comforting, but the middle-ranking nobles are really miserable.
Mr. Chen’s life was difficult.
Chen County was supposed to be the fiefdom of the Chen family, but now, the Chen family only retains power in the area around the county town. The clan's private soldiers have been dismantled long ago, and the glory of the nobility has long been lost.
At this time, the more important it is to take the initiative to make changes and do something. As the head of a family, one cannot just sit back and watch the family sink step by step.
"Welcome? Ceremony?"
"Yes."
Meng Shou smiled,
said;
"Your Majesty is a proud man."
"My nephew knows this."
"The alliance with Qian is really a helpless move. Fan Chengzhi Defeated, our great Chu is weak and weak against the emptiness in the north, showing its incompetence Yi, Your Majesty was forced to stand with the Qian Kingdom.
Perhaps, in your opinion, the alliance between Qian and Chu, and the import of the Qian people's goods and grain into the Chu region, can solve Chu's urgent needs and resolve its rivalry. The Dilemma of the North.
But back then, the Yan State mobilized the power of Yan and Jin to attack Chu. Although Chu was in a weak position, it could still barely compete with the power of a country. Now, facing the Yiping Xihou Mansion, it is so embarrassing.
This alliance is a shame for Your Majesty.
Your Majesty went there with great fanfare to give you people peace of mind;
When you return from the alliance, you will welcome him with great fanfare, just to add trouble to His Majesty's heart.
I am still alive as an old immortal. Your Majesty will take care of Mr. Chen's face. If you think your life is long, make the welcome grander. ”
"Uncle, has it really come to this?"
"I am not from the Chen family."
"Uncle, you are!"
"Think here. I'll give you two sentences for this sweet love. After that, , you should stop coming here often. If you are interrupted once and speak a few more times, it may be easier for me to fall asleep.
It is better to leave me here to fend for myself, maybe more. For a while.
The first sentence is, His Majesty has returned from the alliance. Everyone in the Chen family should keep quiet and pretend that they don't know anything about it.
If Your Majesty wants to come to see me, Your Majesty will come to see me.
The second sentence is to extend your head and cut your head with a knife. Your Majesty has no way out. The defeat of Fancheng has torn off the last fig leaf of Chu. Your Majesty will not care for the nobles and show affection anymore. He will use the knife to strike harder.
They are all going to be chopped off. If you take the initiative to give your head, you can still have some affection.
His Majesty promotes people from poor families and accepts people from Shanyue. It is not that His Majesty does not want to use aristocratic children. Most of the people who can really be used are aristocratic children.
It's just that some people worry too much.
Do you understand? "
"Nephew, I understand. "
"Will you do it? "
"Nephew..."
"It's hard to persuade the damn ghost with words, and I don't know when it will be, haha."
The face of the head of the Chen family suddenly became extremely ugly.
“Cough cough…”
Meng Shou coughed.
The head of the Chen family immediately stood up and helped pat his back.
"Do you know why I came back to live in the Chen family again?"
"You do it because my mother helped you back then."
"Yes."
Meng Shou breathed a long sigh of relief and stopped coughing;
“Uncle, it’s not my nephew who can’t see clearly. In fact, my nephew can see the current situation very clearly. Your Majesty’s sword is on it. The sword of the Yan people is outside;
The Chen family is not a wealthy family, so even if they become friends, how much will be left in the end?
If we make friends, Mrs. Chen will no longer be Mrs. Chen. If we don’t, her family will be able to live in confusion for a while longer.
It’s hard to be the head of this family.
Looking at the future, in fact, I, the head of the family, only think this way;
But most of the whole family thinks about getting drunk today.
I think,
Your Majesty, the same is true. "
"The Son of Heaven, on behalf of the herdsmen of Heaven, what is herding? To whip him! "
"Uncle, do you think there is still hope for me? If the Yan people take a few more years to recuperate, they will no longer be satisfied with making small fuss. ”
Meng Shou looked at the head of the Chen family;
The head of the Chen family pursed his lips;
“Back then, I studied under my mentor, who despised my background. It was your mother who secretly used your father’s seal and wrote a letter to my mentor, so I had the opportunity to join the mentor. "
"Why do you need to talk about this again?"
The head of the Chen family has always felt that
his mother and Meng Shou might have had a relationship...
But I am already so old, and my parents have passed away long ago. I really have no interest in distinguishing who is my biological father at this time...
Meng Shou raised a finger,
The head of the Chen family immediately spread out his palms and offered them together.
Meng Shou wrote a word in his palms:
Thanks. (End of this chapter)
