Shen Rouning was not surprised by this.

She nodded, and looked at the old man with some confusion—

What does the old man want to express?

"I know that you are now obsessed with painting, and with your own skills and ideas, you may be able to stand on your own in the future." The old man hesitated for a moment, and then said slowly: "There are pursuits and ideals, which are worthy of encouragement, and I support you very much." ”

Originally, he didn't know whether to say this to Shen Rouning.

But I feel that if I don't let Shen Rouning understand in advance, what if it becomes a mistake in the future? Therefore, after some hesitation, the old man still had to give Shen Rouning a moment to the depths. The little girl is smart and should be able to understand what he is saying.

"People should be prepared for a rainy day."

"Now that I'm here, I'm confident that I can still protect the peaceful life of your family. But in the future, ......" Old Man Chen said quietly: "Daqing has a plan in Beijin, and it will take three years at most, and this battle will be almost over." At that time, the north and the south will be unified, and Emperor Qinglong will become the real Ninety-Five Supreme! His dominance, his will, will not be able to resist no one! ”

"Because, at that time, the centralization of prestige has reached its peak, and without foreign enemies, he no longer needs to tolerate what he is unwilling to tolerate! He can do whatever he wants, and he has no scruples! Because in the face of the merits of great unification, a small personality or a flaw in private life is nothing! ”

"The current Emperor Qinglong is undoubtedly a very rational and restrained king." The old man said slowly: "But when the great cause of reunification is completed, can he still restrain himself in any aspect?" Think of the kings of the great unified nations in history. They don't have lofty goals, what are they like when they have great power. ”

Shen Rou's face gradually calmed down.

She remembered her previous life.

That great unified dynasty has been passed down for several generations, and the emperor is brave and promising, firmly grasping the military power under his control, sitting on the throne, looking at the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty, like looking at the chess pieces on the chessboard.

He doesn't need to beg for talent.

In such a big country, there is never a shortage of talents.

Anything that makes him unhappy, that is not in line with his purpose. He did not hesitate to suppress and give up. and even raided the house. No one dared to disobey Him, and all those who disobeyed Him eventually died.

The Chen family is very well-established, and the old man is also very wise, otherwise. You won't be prepared for danger in times of peace. Say something like that. as a successor. Chen Houyun has naturally experienced a long time, and he is very wise, and he even carries four or two thousand pounds of weights between his hands.

But if you encounter a king who holds the power of the world and has no scruples, he insists on going his own way. The Chen family and the Chen family are just as fragile.

"Chen Guifei made an early move." Old Man Shen said: "If she is more patient, wait until the war is over and Emperor Qinglong's prestige reaches its peak, and then ask Emperor Qinglong to give her and her biological mother a background...... I'm afraid that at that time, I didn't have the courage to object. ”

Speaking of this, the old man was a little silent.

He dares to insist now, that is, he grasps that Emperor Qinglong wants to win the support of the people to unify the country and become a generation of Ming monarchs, leaving a name in history and being admired by thousands of people, but he does not dare to move an old man like him, who is famous and powerful. Unless it's really famous! That's why he has the backbone, the courage, and the uncompromised.

But if it were five or ten years from now, would he really not compromise?

He doesn't care if he gives up his official position and wealth, but what if it is the lives of all the Chen family?

Even now, in the bottom of the old man's heart, he is not sure whether he will compromise when he is in that situation.

But Shen Rouning still believes that even if he loses his official position and life in front of him, the old man will still not compromise! He can admit his weakness in front of his granddaughter, and a person with such frank courage will never compromise!

For some reason, Shen Rouning quietly clenched her fists and sat straight.

Chen Houyun walked in quietly, smiled at Shen Rouning, and found a chair to sit down.

The old man didn't pay attention to Chen Houyun, still looked at Shen Rouning, and said, "And five years later, it will be your most beautiful years." Even ten years later, it's the same. So, Ah Ning, you must marry someone as soon as possible, and marry into a high gate that can protect you. ”

"As soon as the war is over, I will write a letter asking for a letter." Old Man Chen said quietly: "If you want to come to Emperor Qinglong, you won't immediately tear your face and go to me for trouble with the person who asked for Zhishi." Without seeing me, he probably wouldn't always remember that I, an old man, had rejected him again and again and despised him. ”

He wasn't reckless.

After he had calculated it, he wanted to solve the problem when he could control it, and wrote a book on releasing concubines.

The Qing family is no longer related to the Chen family, and it will not be easy for Chen Guifei and even Emperor Qinglong to find an excuse to make trouble in the future. His wife, one is enough.

"After resigning, I will prepare to build a academy...... "The academy is a place for teaching and educating people, and no matter how important the monarch's power is, it must be respected." So, I'm not worried about how the Chen family is, I'm only worried that the Chen family won't be able to shelter you. ”

Shen Rou listened quietly.

She didn't express her opinion until this time, when Old Man Chen was almost done, she flashed her eyes and looked at Chen Houyun, and asked softly, "What does Cousin Yun think?" ”

Old Man Chen retreated, Master Chen and Second Master Chen were not people who could take on heavy responsibilities, it must be Chen Houyun who took over this burden. And Shen Rouning and Chen Houyun have been studying together for nearly two months, and they admire him very much for his knowledge and wisdom.

"Ah Ning, you are a girl's family." Chen Houyun was not as heavy as the old man, he still smiled very kindly, and even teased with a little kindness, and said: "And the girl's family must be married...... Of course, when the young man is old, he must also start a family...... Otherwise, life is incomplete. ”

Shen Rouning's face turned slightly red.

Just now the old man said "marry", she didn't feel any need to be shy in her heart...... But for some reason, hearing Chen Houyun's ridicule, her face unconsciously heated.

"And if my uncle has always been just a county magistrate, and he doesn't want to stay in one place for too long...... What kind of person can Ah Ning marry? Ah Ning, you see, whether it is in Zhoushan, or in Yueyang, or in other counties in the future, I really can't find any kind of young man who can be worthy of Ah Ning! ”

"Take a step back and leave aside what is worthy...... Not everyone can meet an infatuated person like an uncle like an aunt. When a girl marries into her husband's family, life is bound to be not easy...... So, assuming that Ah Ning married in Yueyang County, when his uncle and aunt left, who could support Ah Ning?
