Murong Fu and Qiao Feng had a tiring journey, and Su Shi naturally did not force them to stay with him for a night talk, but instead told them to rest and recuperate earlier. Qiao Feng was a guest from afar, and he went back to the room by himself after dinner, but Murong Fu still had to cheer up and ask about the family. The trading of glass and spirits added two more sources of wealth to the Murong family, which was expected by Murong Fu, so much so that he was not moved to see the profit on the ledger that was about to break through six figures. On the contrary, it was the news of his aunt Li Qingluo, which made Murong Fu even more concerned.

According to the evil story, Li Qingluo was furious after learning that Murong Fu threw Wang Yuyan and ran to the border pass, and personally came to Huangzhou to take Wang Yuyan home. Who knows, after talking with Su Shi's wife, Wang Yan, one of them, Xi Chang, changed his mind, personally purchased a lot of gifts, and ordered Wang Yuyan to officially worship Su Mai as a teacher and stay at Su Shi's house to receive teaching. Wang Yuyan is smart by nature, although she only worships under Su Mai, Su Shi often instructs her in her homework. The two girls named Azhu and Abi were named to accompany Wang Yuyan, and they were naturally taught by Su Shi's father and son when they were studying, and they benefited a lot. The turmoil didn't understand Li Qingluo's capriciousness, but Murong Fu sighed and said: "The beloved son of parents has far-reaching plans. ”

Listening to Murong Fu's words, there was a lot of sparseness, and he couldn't help but look up at him. Just as he was about to open his mouth to ask, Deng Baichuan suddenly pulled his sleeve and stepped forward and said, "It's late at night, so it's better to settle it earlier." "Walked out with a reluctant turmoil.

Murong Fu was so worried that he couldn't sleep, so he simply went to the kitchen to get a jar of good wine and went to the courtyard to raise a glass and drink alone. How did he know that a cup had just fallen, Qiao Feng also walked out, and said with a smile: "Brother Murong Xian, you and I have known each other, and since we have good wine, how can you not greet me?" ”

Murong Fu smiled slightly, patted the stone bench on the side casually, flicked his sleeve twice and invited Qiao Feng to sit down, and then picked up the wine jar and filled a glass for Qiao Feng and himself. "It's mine, it's not mine, punish a glass of wine, do it first as a respect!"

Qiao Feng saw that Murong Fu was drinking refreshmently, and he also drank all the wine in the cup. He is a person who knows wine, Fang drank a glass, and he felt the difference, this wine entrance seemed to swallow a hot flame, Qiao Feng drank many wines, if the wine strength is domineering, it can be regarded as second to none, and couldn't help but exclaim: "What a strong wine!" What is your name? ”

Murong Fu raised his eyebrows and smiled, and said proudly: "Burn the knife, the spirit of the world, it belongs to the king!" Burning knives is a liquor in Liaodong, which was initially formed in the Ming and Qing dynasties, and can be regarded as another "invention" of Murong Fu. It's just that the entrance is extremely spicy, and the market response is quite flat, and now that Qiao Feng knows the goods, Murong Fu is naturally very happy. He suddenly flicked his finger against the wall of the wine glass in front of him, and the wine glass filled with spirits was stimulated by his fingers, and immediately flew out and broke the lantern hanging in the corner of the courtyard. The candlelight in the lantern flickered, and the glass turned around in the lantern and flew back, landing firmly on the table. In the glass, a flame is burning in the glass.

Qiao Feng glanced at the wine glass and praised: "What a finger!" ”

"Carving insect skills, it's ugly!" Murong Fu didn't care about his martial arts, but instead asked. "Talking to my teacher today, why did Brother Qiao prevent me from mentioning Xu Xi's matter?"

When Qiao Feng heard this, he immediately pointed at Murong Fu and smiled: "Brother Murong Xian is really a scholar, and his actions are quite pedantic. Let me ask you, can you mention the battlefield killings you have experienced in the past year with your cousin? ”

Murong Fu raised his eyebrows in surprise, and replied as a matter of course: "Naturally not." Yu Yan is still young, if I talk to her, won't it lead her to nightmares? ”

"Isn't that the end of it?" Qiao Feng said in a relaxed tone.

"Why is it over?" Murong Fu was as confused as Zhanger King Kong, "In the future, when Yu Yan grows up, if she knows about this and complains that I am acting cruelly and sharing with me, isn't that tearing out my heart?" ”

"What are these words?" Qiao Feng said angrily, "On the battlefield against the enemy, you live or die." How can it be considered ruthless? ”

"Didn't the teacher think that fire hurt the heavens?" Murong Fu said bitterly.

"That's because Bachelor Su has never seen the battlefield. The words of the scholar, why should the virtuous brother take it to heart? Qiao Feng immediately replied, "Master Su and Sister Ling are both smart people, even if they don't know now, they will understand in the future." Even if there are really foolish people who don't distinguish between right and wrong and complain that you are cruel, can you just stand by and watch what you should do and not do it? Qiao learned martial arts in order to be chivalrous and righteous. When the road is uneven, it is necessary to draw a sword to help. If every time I make a move, I have to weigh the weight of my opponent, worry about whether it will affect my relatives and friends, think about what others will say, and make sure that I am harmless before making a move, otherwise I will turn a blind eye, then am I still a person? What is right, what should be done! Why did Brother Murong Xian fall in love? ”

"Well said!" Without waiting for Murong to reply, Su Shi had already shouted loudly and walked over from the other end of the courtyard. Su Shi's family now lives under the same roof with Murong Fu, he is an old drunkard, Murong Fu and Qiao Feng drink here, he smells the smell and comes over. "Martial arts without benevolence and righteousness is just a martial artist, bullying the weak, not worth mentioning. Qiao Xiaoyou has such a chivalrous heart, so he deserves the words 'heroic hero'! When the float is white! After that, he had a toast with Qiao Feng, and then looked at Murong Fu coldly. Mencius has a cloud: self-reflection does not shrink, although brown and broad, I am not worried; self-reflexive, although tens of millions of people have gone to me. Reinstated, if you can't compose poetry, why can't you even read books? ”

Su Shi and Murong Fu have the status of master and apprentice, Su Shi reprimanded, and Murong Fu immediately got up to make amends. "The teacher is teaching." However, his heart was in turmoil, so he answered this voice and said again. "However, students are only afraid of terrible words and unpredictable people's hearts!"

"There are ten brothers in a family, and nine of them are lazy, what should the remaining one do?" Qiao Feng suddenly repeated the story that Murong Fu had mentioned at this time, and said loudly. "Naturally, you have to work harder to feed your family! Perhaps, instead of being grateful for his hard work, the nine brothers complained that he refused to eat and drink with his brothers, and that they were emotionally divided. Or, when the nine brothers were taken in by him, they became enemies who wanted to kill him and take away his property. Just, so what? Grace is not for the sake of retribution, but for the righteousness of the world. Even if the nine brothers were ungrateful and ungrateful, would he not eat or be a man himself? As long as things are right, you should do them, why delay yourself because of other people's irresponsible opinions? ”

Murong Fu sighed and said, "In this way, I have another story. Ten people were also trapped in a dark room, and one of them woke up, shouting for help and banging on the door, thus waking up the remaining nine. The doors and windows of the dark room they were in had been sealed, and there was little hope of escape. Or, even if you escape, it will be cold and snowy outside, and you will still die of cold and starvation after all. So, is it right or wrong that one person woke up the other nine? Will the nine blame him for depriving them of their only chance to die happily in their slumber, and instead taste the horror of death? ”

This time, it was Su Shi who answered. "No one knows what happened outside the dark room until the house was broken. Staying in the dark room is bound to be a dead end, and if you escape, there is always a chance of survival. Even if you still inevitably die in the end, there is a difference between trying to fail and not trying to sit and die in a trap. Besides, there are only ten people in the dark room, and even if the first person fails, the later people will learn from him and find the right way to escape. Reinstated, as a teacher, always believes that there are many brave people in this world, and few timid people; There are many people who are willing to be sober and work hard, and there are few people who are willing to sit and die. ”

"Murong, there are so many people in this world, how do you know that in the future, everyone will blame you, everyone is ungrateful, and everyone is blind?" Qiao Feng seemed to understand the decision Murong Fu was about to make, and only looked deeply at his cold and transparent eyes, and said word by word. "Even if right and wrong are confused for a while, they will eventually come to light through the ages. Justice, freedom in the hearts of the people! ”

"If you start your heart as before, you will become a Buddha." After Su Shi was demoted, he studied Huang Laozhi more and more, and at this time, he couldn't help but sigh and say a word of Buddha. "Reinstated, let's go out!"

Murong Fu didn't answer, at this moment, he just remembered the words on the Holocaust Memorial that he had seen when he went to Boston in his previous life. It turns out that no matter ancient or modern, Chinese or foreign, some truths are simple and straightforward, but they always need people to confirm them with blood. It's just, as Qiao Feng said, so what? This life was originally picked up, and it was vigorously divided by five horses, and it was always wonderful to die quietly on the bed. Thinking of this, Murong Fu couldn't help but smile to himself, and suddenly realized that maybe he was a person who was unwilling to be lonely in his bones. Even in the previous life, he had been waiting for such an opportunity, so no one could be blamed for such an end. He picked up the wine glass and said loudly: "Respect Shang Ying, respect Wang Jinggong!" ”

Su Shi was belittled for opposing the New Deal, but he laughed at this time, and then picked up his wine glass and said: "Respect justice, respect the world!" ”

"Speak up with respect and die with generosity!" Qiao Feng finally said.

That night, the three drunkards made trouble all night, and drank seventeen or eighteen jars of extremely hot knives like water. Su Shi had the highest status in the seat, pointing to Murong Fu and asking him to compose poems to help the fun. Murong reread a stomach full of good poems and good words, but he just wanted him to do it himself. Hearing Su Shi's request, he immediately surrendered his hand and begged for mercy: "Teacher, the student is really ...... Really, if you are not good at this, it is better to ...... Let Brother Qiao fight a set of punches? I know that the beggars have ten sets of boxing techniques...... Belch! He burped, tilted his body and continued, "Ten, ten...... Extremely...... Great! Descending the Dragon...... Eighteen palms! ”

Qiao Feng also held the wine jar and smiled. "Brother Xian, don't talk about ten palms. The palm of my beggar gang was originally ...... Two, two, twenty-eight palms! "One sentence is intermittent, obviously not to mention twenty-eight palms, even eight palms he may not be able to play.

"You!" Su Shi really couldn't see it, and he looked disgusted. "Scratching your ears and scratching your cheeks...... If you sit, if you sit...... Hiccup, hiccups, hiccups! …… What, what...... Sweaty ...... Belch! …… Back, soul flying, scattered! It's harder to write poetry than to kill you! Why did I accept such a ...... from you? Those who do not fight are ...... Follower...... Ah brother! ”

Murong Fu's self-esteem was greatly hurt, and he said aggrievedly: "Teacher, although the student can't compose poetry, the student ...... Students can sing! As soon as he raised his hand and wanted to make a beat, he didn't know that his center of gravity was unstable, and he rolled directly to the ground like a gourd.

Qiao Feng laughed again, and said earnestly: "Murong, your next plate...... How can it be, such as ...... Are you very good at kung fu? Want...... Train...... Yes! ”

Murong Fu ignored him, got up from the ground with a few sticks of dry grass, patted the seat, and sang: "The sea is laughing, the tide on both sides of the strait, the ups and downs are remembered with the waves, and the ...... is today" Murong Fu's voice is clear and the rhythm is excellent, and this song should be very pleasant for him to sing. It's just that now that he's drunk, it's not easy to remember the lyrics, and the song is ridiculous and miserable. However, the reason why this song can be so widely circulated in the previous life is naturally because the heroic spirit in the lyrics can resonate with people. Now, after a thousand years, it still shines brightly. Yes, Murong Fu had only sung it once, and Qiao Feng and Su Shi couldn't help but sing with him.

The ups and downs of the world are like a sea of fire and a mountain of knives. In the end, the only thing that can blow all the wild sand to the gold is a chivalrous heart and a passion for serving the country!

Half a month later, Qiao Feng said goodbye to Su Shi and Murong Fu and set off to return to the beggar gang. After Qiao Feng left, Murong Fu also asked Su Shi for his resignation, and returned to Yanziwu with Deng Baichuan and the storm to take care of family affairs. Murong Fu has not returned to Yanziwu for two years, and now he can't come back to say goodbye to Sister-in-law Deng unlike Bao, and after hastily turning over the account books at home, he retreated, sat in the main hall and said to the four ministers and Sister-in-law Deng: "I want to follow the example of Emperor Tai/Zu, accumulate merit, add yellow robes, and replace him!" ”

As soon as Murong Fu said this, everyone was immediately full of joy, they waited for a full eighteen years, and Murong Fu finally gave them a clear answer. Everyone immediately knelt down in front of Murong Fu and said in unison: "Since the prince is ambitious, his subordinates will go to the soup to help the prince achieve great things!" ”

"Brothers, you are really the ministers of my Murong clan, and you know that you are not away!" Murong Fu stroked his palms and smiled, and got up to say. "I've been traveling for two years and I've gained a lot of knowledge. Now, although the world of Zhao and Song Dynasty is said to have internal and external troubles, it still has the vitality accumulated for a hundred years, and it is not to the point of unveiling it. As for the Liaoxia and Xia, the two countries have been at peace for a long time, and their military strength is exhausted, and they are even more deficient and conspiracy. If I want to waste my time and wait for the opportunity, I am afraid that I may not have a chance until my gray hair is gray. However, Zhao Kuangyin was not in the right position, and Zhao Guangyi had a scandal of candle night axe shadow, and the current emperor was so happy and incompetent, wasting national strength and achieving nothing, and the people were already complaining. If I can take this opportunity to enter the official office and accumulate merit, win the hearts of the people in the world, and invite the emperor to the throne at the right time, and replace the Great Song Dynasty with Dayan, it will be a matter of course. In this world, there should be virtuous people living in it after all. ”

Deng Baichuan and Bao have been with Murong Fu for many years, and they have listened to him analyze the general trend of the world countless times, and they also know that if it is peaceful today, it will be difficult for the people to rebel. At a loss, when they heard that Murong Fu had thought of such a unique way, they only felt that there was a lot to be done when they saw the clouds, and they couldn't help but dance with their eyebrows. Only Gongye Qian pondered for a moment, and suddenly said: "Master Gongzi, the so-called scholar rebellion will not succeed in three years." No matter how much Gongzi has contributed to the court, I am afraid that he will also make wedding clothes for people, and this throne will not fall on the head of Gongzi. ”

Murong Fu only smiled slightly when he heard this, and said meaningfully: "Why did the second brother of Gongye forget, but the reinstatement is not just a scholar who has no power to restrain chickens!" Zhao Kuangyin was originally a military general, so the Great Song Dynasty has used civil servants to balance the military generals since the founding of the country, in order to prevent the military generals from seizing his throne by dictatorship, but they don't know that the Zhao Song Emperor and the world's military generals have long been separated from morality. If I gain military power as a civil official, the Taoist and I will have a good relationship, and the Zhe family is originally a descendant of the party, and it is also my Xianbei lineage. Emperor Zhao and Song regarded Wu as a mustard and an enemy, but I regarded them as siblings. Second brother Gongye, you say, who are the generals willing to sit on that throne? ”

Gongye Qian's heart was convinced, but he was still ignorant of the turmoil, and asked: "This throne has infinite charm, even if the prince is highly meritorious, how can the children of the Zhao family be willing to Zen?" ”

The evil words of the storm fell, and Deng Baichuan and the others were already looking at him eating and laughing. This time, without waiting for Murong Fu to reply, Sister-in-law Deng had already said quickly: "Emperor Yang Yu of Sui Gong is in the position of Zen, and he Emperor Zhao and Song can also follow suit." What's more, I heard that the heirs of Emperor Zhao and Song are difficult, and it is common for them to cut off their children and grandchildren one day. At that time, the prestige of the prince is the highest and the greatest credit, who dares to compete with him? ”

Murong Fu said again: "To achieve this wish, it must be more than ten years or even decades. Before I join the ranks, I want a few brothers to help me with a few big things, I wonder if the four brothers are willing to contribute? ”

The four ministers landed on one knee together and said in unison: "I am willing to serve the dog and horse for the son!" ”

"Good!" Murong Fu immediately said, "Brother Deng, you are quite appreciated in the army, and now I will repair a book and recommend you to serve under the cultivation of Ge. When the time comes, I will be in charge of government affairs in the DPRK and China, and you will be in charge of military power in the army, and you and I will echo each other, and great things can be accomplished! ”

Deng Baichuan was so ambitious that he only hugged his fists and saluted, and said loudly: "Deng Baichuan dares not to work!" ”

Murong Fu turned his gaze to Gongye Qian again. "Second Brother Gongye, your task is the most difficult. It's just that among the four elder brothers, the reinstatement is convinced that only with the wisdom and strategy of the second brother of Gongye can this great thing be accomplished! ”

Gongye Qian sighed in his heart, and said stubbornly: "Please show the prince!" ”

"Then Li Yanzong, the second brother might as well get closer to him and borrow his identity to enter the Xixia Yipintang for my internal response. When I take charge of the military power, I will calmly arrange, bring the merit of destroying the country, and try to win the championship with Zhao Song Xiaoer. ”

Gongye Qian never imagined that Murong would spare Li Yanzong's life, and it was this idea to fight. Western Xia is bitterly cold, and Li Yanzhong is a member of the clan, so how easy is it to borrow his identity to become an internal candidate? It's just that Gongye Qian had already sworn to obey Murong Fuyan, even if he was bitter in his heart, he could only bow his head at this time and say: "My subordinates must do their best!" ”

Murong Fu also seemed to realize that the task assigned to Gongye Qian was very arduous, and he said at the moment: "The second brother of Gongye can just let go and use money to employ people in Western Xia, and there is no difference between reinstating the official. In short, although the news is important, it is absolutely important that I have a friendship with my second brother, and the safety of my second brother is the top priority! ”

Murong Fu said this, what else could Gongye Qian say? He had to thank: "Thank you Gongye, Gongye will help Gongye Ye Ye to achieve great things!" ”

Murong Fu nodded with satisfaction, and quipped to Bao Wei: "Third Brother Bao, the so-called money can make ghosts grind, I believe there are always so many people in this world who can stop my Murong Clan's 'Fighting and Star Shifting'; Third Brother Bao, what I will explain in the future is my Murong family's own business, and the third brother can't smash my signboard! ”

When Bao Wei heard it, he knew that Murong Fu was referring to the smugness of smashing the storefront when he was an apprentice in a porcelain shop when he was a child, and he smiled at the moment, and only said: "Although the prince can rest assured, no matter how confused Bao Wei is, he will never dare to miss the big thing of the prince!" ”

"As for Fourth Brother Feng," Murong Fu smiled lightly and said quietly. "The reinstatement of the official wants to borrow the prestige of the fourth brother to weigh the quality of the seventy-two peaks of the forty-eight islands of Taihu Lake!"

Although he didn't know Murong Fu's intention to subdue the Taihu Lake bandits, he had already said loudly with instinct: "Don't worry, if anyone doesn't listen to Gongzi's orders, the villain wants him to cut him in two!" ”

Sister-in-law Deng listened for a while, and suddenly said: "Son-in-law, this little thing is handled by me and my fourth brother." Since the prince has made up his mind to become an official, he should study with peace of mind, and three years later, he will be admitted to the Gui Toad Palace. ”

Murong Fu shook his head slightly, and said casually: "Entering the imperial examination is not worth mentioning because I am hand-to-hand." Until then, there is more important work to be done. ”

Everyone knew that Murong Fu was very talented, and they didn't feel that he was speaking wildly, so they only said in unison: "Please show your son!" ”

"Set sail to the sea, open up trade routes, and help me achieve domestic greatness with foreign financial and cargo resources!" Murong Fu's words were firm and unquestionable, opening a new page in the navigation era of the Great Song Dynasty!
