Chapter 554: Slim, Peerless and Independent!
On the way, Zhou Tian listened to Fang Jue introduce the strategic significance of Fucheng.
According to Fang Jue, Fucheng is a military city in China with a developed economy and a place where all forces must fight.
It is also because of this that in Fucheng, it is not in terms of money to speak, but in fists, and whoever has a hard fist will speak more forcefully in Fucheng.
In the past few decades, the Fang family has always had a great say in Fucheng, and the main reason is that the Fang family has always had a large control in the Fucheng Military Region.
"In the past, the Fang family was the boss in Fucheng, and the Jiang family in the southeast, the Li family in the south, and the Zhou family in the north also had a certain influence, but there was no way to shake our Fang family's status in Fucheng before.
However, in the past ten years, the Fang family's voice in Fucheng has been constantly weakened, mainly due to the alliance of the other two major forces. Thirteen years ago, Old Man Jiang went south and had a secret meeting with Old Man Li of the Li family in the south, and after that time, the Jiang and Li families began to lay out and secretly contain our Fang family.
"In the past ten years, the Fucheng Military Region has changed generals several times, although the chief is still from our Fang family, but more than half of the deputy generals below have fallen into the hands of the Jiang family and the Li family.
"Because of the need for a balanced relationship, and the fact that the old man will not be involved in military and political affairs, our Fang family is also quite helpless about this. However, at present, there is an opportunity, and I came here this time, in fact, for this purpose. Of course, I'm glad to see you here. After Fang Jue introduced the situation of Fucheng, this was the true purpose of his southward journey.
"Isn't your Fang family not fighting for the red top, how can you fight for these?" Zhou Tian asked strangely.
He had heard Fang Lingxin say before that although the Fang family was a Heavenly Master inheritance family, the Fang family had ancestral teachings and an agreement with the court, that is, they would never fight for or even get involved in the throne.
Fang Jue smiled bitterly: "Yes, our Fang family has ancestral training, and we must not touch the peak of power, and because of this, our family has always been respected by the court for thousands of years. I couldn't figure it out until my father told me a story. ”
Zhou Tian was thoughtful and didn't ask out loud, and when he continued, Fang Jue said: "He said that there is a horse clan that cannot be involved in the heart of the forest throne, but has the responsibility of guarding the forest, living in the forest, and beside them, there are lions, jackals, wolves, tigers, leopards, and many powerful beasts, all of which have the ambition to ascend the throne.
"These orcs who want to ascend to the throne of the forest know that if they want to reach the top, it is important to get the support of the horses. The Centaurs will not be involved in the Orcs' struggle for the throne.
"The horse clan has a Pegasus heritage, and each generation of Pegasus has a strong strength, which is the guarantee of the power to protect the forest. But with the exception of the one who inherited the Pegasi, the rest of the Centaurs are very weak, and in the forests of the jungle, they often become food for the powerful beasts, and often use this to threaten the Pegasi to support their own people.
"And the strong men of the horse clan who have inherited the inheritance of the heavenly horses are limited to the ancestral training and cannot make a move against these powerful beasts, which makes the horse clan fall into an existential crisis.
"In such an environment, the only way for the horse clan to survive without being oppressed by other races is to make their own tribe strong and hold a certain amount of power, only in this way can they balance those beasts with wolf ambitions."
"After all, it's better to use your fists to speak, without powerful fists, it's hard to survive in the jungle." Zhou Tian sighed lightly.
He was also able to understand Fang Jue's words. The Fang family is like the horse clan in the forest, and the Tianma who has obtained the inheritance of the Pegasus is a metaphor for the Fang family's celestial master.
The Fang family's heavenly master has the responsibility of guarding Huaxia, but he can't let the people of the Fang family compete for the top of power. Under such circumstances, if the huge family of the Fang family wants to continue, only if it is strong itself, it will not be bullied by others, and at the same time, it can also play a role in balancing the forces of all parties in Huaxia.
"Although you can't take the throne, you can compete for the throne and have a certain amount of power, only in this way can the Fang family gain the right to speak in the secular world and protect yourself." Fang Jue then said.
Zhou Tian smiled bitterly: "I'm afraid it's more than that, there are two great Heavenly Masters in Huaxia, this is in itself for balance, if your Fang family is not strong enough, I'm afraid it will also be suppressed by another Heavenly Master's force, and it will be even more difficult for the Fang family to continue." ”
Fang Jue also smiled bitterly: "You can see it clearly." Tianlongmen has always been cultivating secular talents, and their disciples are more mixed, but these people are a powerful force when they are connected. Although our Fang family is called the guardian of orthodoxy, it is only a family after all, if we want to maintain balance, how can we do it if we are not strong? ”
"That's true." Zhou Tian nodded, but he was strange in his heart, he didn't know why the Fang family had such an ancestral training, whether it was because he had no ambition, or because of other reasons.
However, he didn't ask, after all, this must involve the core secrets of the Fang family, and sometimes the more he knows, it is a burden.
……
The Peninsula Hotel is a five-star manor-style hotel in Rich City, built by the sea, with a freshwater swimming pool, a silver beach, and a crown pavilion semi-open private room, all made of one-way sea blue glass on the outside, you can't see the inside from the outside, but you can see the sea and silver sand from the inside.
However, there are only five such private rooms, which cannot be booked with money, and being able to dine in the crown private room is an honor and a status symbol.
Of course, with the Fang family's background in Fucheng, it is not difficult to book such a private room.
Pei Qingqing did not participate in the banquet set up by Fang Jue, she was a girl after all, her face was covered with gauze, and she was embarrassed to meet outsiders. Neither Zhou Tian nor Fang Jue asked for this.
After some washing, Zhou Tian took Shangguan Qiluo down to the hotel lobby.
Seeing Shangguan Qiluo again, Fang Jue felt even more crisis, and was worried about his sister.
The previous Shangguan Qiluo was wearing a wide men's military uniform, and apart from her haggard face, she couldn't see anything outstanding at all.
At this time, Shangguan Qiluo changed into a pink dress provided by The Peninsula Hotel, and her long hair was tied up in a ponytail, and a blue bow was tied on the ponytail.
The upper body is covered with a bright yellow corset vest, which makes its white jade neck more delicate, and the vest button is tightly fastened, lining its slender waist that can be grasped and supporting the beautiful arc of its chest.
On his feet is a pair of white running shoes, and inside is a pair of flesh-colored stockings, revealing a half-rounded calf.
Seeing Shangguan Qiluo at this time, Fang Jue couldn't help but have two adjectives in his mind: slim, peerless and independent!
