393 The unambitious uncle

Zhou Guangzu lowered his head with his hands behind his back, and said: "Right now, the two princes each have half of the power, I know that you have the ability, and now the emperor also loves you, but our family should not be involved in this matter." Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"

His words surprised Lin Xiaojue, but he didn't think that he didn't mention Zhou Qingyuan when he opened his mouth.

Lin Xiaojue paused for a moment and said, "But the eldest prince is the eldest cousin in the end." ”

Zhou Guangzu slowly raised his head, just as there was a bush of dwarf trees in the place where they were passing, he grabbed a leaf and pinched the stalk in his hand and circled it in his hand, and said, "Qingye, do you want to restore the past glory of the Zhou family?"

What was the Zhou family like in the past? The family of the founding meritorious service is prominent, the family is a hereditary dukedom, and there has been a queen, except for the surname Zhu, there is no one who can compare.

Even the current Fang family and the Feng family have to look up to it.

Lin Xiaojue was silent for a while, and finally nodded: "Yes." ”

Zhou Guangzu shook his head and said: "You are also seventeen years old, the emperor and the Qing monarch set up a new policy, which started from the day you were born, and now it has been sixteen years, and the Zhou family has gone from glory to decay in the past sixteen years, and even the children and grandchildren have begun to corrupt the style, and the boys are not as good as the generation, and anyone who sees it will feel sad, so I can understand that you want to restore the old glory, but I don't want to live like that again." ”

Lin Xiaojue was surprised.

She smiled: "It turns out that the eldest uncle has been content with the status quo and is happy to live in poverty." ”

Zhou Guangzu heard the unhappiness in her words, as if to say that he was not angry, and said with a faint smile, "It is because I have experienced such glory and struggled in a life of pain and pain, so I said that such days are no longer important to the Zhou family." Although the family background is distinguished and noble, it makes people have a more dignified status and can live a better life, but the risk of worrying all day long is not something that everyone can afford, think what a glory my Zhou family was back then, what kind of courage and good fighting did your grandfather, captured one city after another for the royal family, and made great achievements, but what happened in the end?"

"If your grandfather was not sincere enough, then Taizu couldn't spare the Zhou family, but he was so brave and loyal that even his own uncle had to be his enemy, and in the end his uncle didn't spare him. So the heart is also death, and the disloyalty is still death, haven't you seen the doorway clearly?"

"Speaking of which, whether the first emperor or the emperor, it's not all their old Zhu family's country, they call back and forth and are all housework, but our family is tired to such a point, so I say that it's good to be poor and happy, and it's nothing if the children don't fight, anyway, it's them who suffer hardships, and it's the same if their daughters corrupt the door, in the end, the dust will return to dust, those reputations, honors, what's the use?"

Lin Xiaojue was a little dumbfounded when he heard Zhou Guangzu's "great enlightenment", the eldest uncle didn't want to give up like this a few days ago, right? Is it because the voice of the fourth prince is too high, so he feels hopeless?

She hurriedly asked, "Uncle, are you going to become a monk?" ”

Zhou Guangzu: "......"

He sighed and said, "You kid is not doing right, I tell you to be serious, do you say that I will punish you or turn a blind eye?"

Lin Xiaojue said: "Anyway, in the end, the dust will return to the dust, so what else will be punished, just turn a blind eye and forget it." ”

Zhou Guangzu: "......"

He was speechless by Lin Xiaojue's choking and frowned slightly.

Lin Xiaojue said: "Uncle, you said that people will die sooner or later, so it's good to die directly, why are you still alive?"

Zhou Guangzu listened to her words faintly refute his words, so he didn't say anything.

Lin Xiaojue said: "I told Lan Junyuan that there is no meaning in living, but if you live, you don't know what you will encounter and who you will meet, so life becomes meaningful." ”

Zhou Guangzu pondered for a moment and nodded slightly.

Lin Xiaojue said again: "I understand that the eldest uncle wants to seek stability, but the world is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king's minister, the more people who live at the bottom, the more painful it is, whether it is the first emperor or the emperor, it is their housework to fight around, but their housework is also the business of the world, anyway, I would rather let the emperor give death with a word than let a county order make a family ruin, the former at least I am a character, and what am I in the latter?"

Zhou Guangzu looked at her with some surprise.

Lin Xiaojue said with a smile: "The reason why my uncle thinks that his life is okay now is because the emperor still blesses the Zhou family, otherwise we may not know where to fill the army and plow the land, and maybe the local tax will be collected once, and our family will be ruined." ”

Zhou Guangzu's face was a little embarrassed when he heard this.

Lin Xiaojue smiled: "A companion is naturally like a companion tiger, but in the end, you can still be a fox and a fake tiger? Do you think that life is to be a general if you want to be a general? When you work hard to become a general, you can become a pioneer, and when you think in your heart that it is enough for me to only be a pioneer, I dare to assert that you are definitely just a firewood soldier." ”

She breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Life is like a boat sailing against the current, if you don't advance, you will retreat, you don't want to climb up, everyone else is climbing up, do you say you will be left behind? We only protect the eldest prince as the crown prince, can there be a happy and healthy family, I am talking about the possibility, when the time comes, it is difficult to say whether the eldest prince will bless us, but if we do not protect the eldest prince and let other princes ascend the throne, do you think that with the relationship between the Zhou family and the relatives of the eldest prince, can the Zhou family stay out of the matter and have a good death?"

"This ......" Zhou Guangzu slowly regained his senses and said softly: "I really don't want to go through that kind of ups and downs anymore." ”

Lin Xiaojue smiled and patted him on the shoulder, "But your surname is Zhou, this is fate, I don't believe in fate, but I believe in the surname, because what kind of family you were born in is really no choice, but if you have the ability to change the status quo, you still have to fight, so in the end I don't believe in fate." ”

Zhou Guangzu thought for a while before reluctantly nodding.

And at this time, it was not far from Lin Xiaojue's yard.

Zhou Guangzu looked at the bright lights in her courtyard and stopped, turned around and stood opposite Lin Xiaojue, and said, "I can't control you in big things, but there is one more thing, do you really have no idea about Qingyuan's affairs? Originally, among these nieces, I pity her the most, the second child is not good, she did the wrong thing in her early years, and the children involved have been forced by others, I know that she has embarrassed the Zhou family by doing this, but I can also understand her distress, the fourth prince is dignified, and he is a prince, and it is normal for her to want to attach to his rights, but she is stupid, man...... may have thought that the person in front of him was a niece, and Zhou Guangzu didn't say the sentence that men don't care about women who are easy to get.

After a pause, he said, "I don't want Qingyuan to be ruined like this." (To be continued.) )
