Center Sea.

Although it is called the sea, it is actually a lake, and the basin area is only 100 acres, and it is really not a commendable attraction among the many magnificent places of interest in Kyoto City, but its existence, even if you look at the whole country, has a supreme position.

After the heavy rain, the weather clears, the sky is blue, the water waves are gentle, and you can see some fish jumping out of the water to breathe fresh air.

On the shore, a group of people were walking unhurriedly, an old man in a tunic and a young man walked in front, and a woman and a middle-aged man followed behind, deliberately five or six steps behind, obviously not wanting to disturb the conversation of the old and the young in front.

The first sunny day after the rain. Drops of rain are rolling down from the branches, and the breeze blows from the water, so that people can clearly feel the fragrance of the soil in the humid air, although the ground under their feet is inevitably a little muddy, but it does not affect the good mood of people's hearts.

"It's great to see you're safe and sound. ”

The old man in the tunic turned his head and smiled and spoke, his temperament was introverted and unpretentious, if he brought fishing tackle, he was afraid that he would really be mistaken for an ordinary old man who came here to fish.

Of course, this is just a joke, and fishing has always been forbidden in the central sea basin.

"I'm so glad to be able to meet you. ”

The young man walking side by side with him smiled slightly, gentle and frugal, and equally unashamed.

The road to simplicity.

The real superiors will never put grandeur on the surface.

"Elder He is fine, right?"

After hesitating, the young man still asked, obviously it was Li Futu, who was immortal.

And what he followed behind was naturally Song Luoshen and Jiang Kuangyi, who temporarily replaced Luo Wenzhou after Luo Wenzhou's death, and wore many hats.

"The injury is not a big deal, at most it is a matter of recuperating for a period of time, but"

The old man paused, stopped and looked at the water, and sighed softly.

This will is inevitably a little depressed. ”

As soon as he stopped, the other three all stopped.

"Otherwise, I or Roselle will visit"

Before Li Futu could finish speaking, he was interrupted by the old man.

"At this time, it is not appropriate for you or Song Yatou to go, this is a heart knot, outsiders can't help, only he can open it himself. ”

The old man in the tunic looked at the gentle water with a calm expression.

Victory and defeat are a common thing in soldiers.

Besides, there is no first in the text, and there is no second in the martial arts.

Since ancient times, it is not uncommon for things to come from behind, with the mind of an old man, it is worth feeling that he is not defeated by a younger generation, but it will definitely not collapse.

The most brutal way to fight a man is not to defeat or even kill him, but to destroy his faith!

The Cao family has been laid out for decades, and after three generations, integrating the efforts of countless people, and now it has collapsed, and all hope has been wiped out, who can bear this kind of setback?

Moreover, it happened in front of me with my own eyes.

He could understand the old man's feelings.

The sense of self-blame that sees things happen but is powerless and powerless to return to heaven is the easiest way for people to fall into a desperate road that is difficult to get out of.

"Some people repay virtue with resentment and are ungrateful, while others are imprisoned by the word simple kindness for a lifetime. Actually, I really appreciate He Wude, who knows how to advance and retreat, is affectionate and righteous, but is not stubborn and ignorant, flexible, knows how to make trade-offs, and is a general. ”

The old man spoke softly, commenting, but it was the generalissimo who commanded the Beijing Division, which was appalling, but it was reasonable.

The old man sighed in a few words as if he had no intention, but it invisibly showed that the generalissimo who had ascended to the sky in one step was probably a smooth road ahead.

"In addition, on behalf of the Cao family, I would like to thank you. ”

The old man turned his head, mostly referring to Cao Xiuge's grace of not killing.

Li Futu was noncommittal, looked at the water and smiled lightly: "I thought you wouldn't be satisfied with this result." ”

The old man was stunned for a moment, and then laughed, and the hearty laughter attracted the eyes of Song Luoshen and Jiang Kuangyi, who were silent not far away, as if they were enjoying the scenery, but soon, they shifted their eyes again, and they had no intention of eavesdropping.

"Do you think I want Cao Xiuge to die?"

The old man smiled unceasingly, his eyes were peaceful, but his words were unusually sharp.

Li Futu was silent.

"Then tell me, why do you think I want to kill someone with a knife? Cao Xiuge is dead, what good will it do me?"

The old man asked with a smile.

Li Futu's expression was flat, and after the old man asked him twice, he finally spoke.

"The Tang Sect relied on the power of the gate valve to set the Central Plains, but there was a Tang generation, but it has been committed to suppressing the wealthy family, because no son of heaven is willing to rule the world with the family. ”

This is nothing less than a heart-wrenching statement!

The old man was stunned, then laughed.

"If Li Lao had made a different choice back then, I'm afraid it would be the Li family now. ”

Looking at the calm young face beside him, he sighed and sighed.

Half-paid, he sighed.

"You're right, but you're not entirely right. If the wealthy family is too powerful, it will inevitably squeeze the space for the rise of the children of the poor families, forming an atmosphere of forming gangs and factions, which can easily lead to the private delegation of power, cronyism, and even the possibility of making jokes about hereditary replacement. I did want to curb the development of these gate valves, but no matter what, I really didn't want to kill Cao Xiuge. ”

"After all, Cao Xiuge is the only male member of the Cao family, and so far, the Cao family has never failed the country. ”

This is definitely a real reassurance.

If it were anyone else, the old man wouldn't speak, and no one would dare to listen.

After calmly listening to the old man's heartfelt words, Li Futu was silent for a moment, then turned his head and asked, "Do you think what Cao Xiuge did is really wrong?"

The old man looked at the water, and until the end, did not respond to the question.

After a while, a young man and a woman took their leave.

After the two walked away, Jiang Kuangyi walked to the old man and stood in the position of Li Futu just now.

"He just asked me a very interesting question. ”

The old man was still looking at the water and spoke slowly.

"Kuang Yi, do you think what Cao Xiuge did was really wrong?"

This question is definitely not easy to answer and answer.

Rao is Jiang Kuangyi, and he also thought about half a salary.

Seeing this, the old man smiled and said, "Speak freely, there is no need to have any scruples, I want to hear the truest thoughts in your heart." ”

Hearing this, Jiang Kuangyi responded cautiously: "Not benevolent, but righteous." ”

"Not benevolent, but righteous. ”

The old man read it silently in a low voice, did not accuse Jiang Kuangyi of answering the question, slowly turned around, and looked at the backs of a pair of young men and women leaving.

"Maybe no one would have thought that the illegitimate son of the Li family, who was the least taken care of at the beginning, overthrew Li Cao's two major gates one after another, and reshaped a bright future for the children of the poor families in the world. ”
