Chapter 363 ends

Changting was stunned, 20,000 of the 30,000 soldiers under Cui's cloth died, 10,000 fell, and the 10,000 who fell were tightly tied hand and foot under the base of the city wall... What does this mean? It means that at least the same number or even double the number of elite soldiers can easily deal with these 30,000 soldiers. For example, if it is not decided today, the two Shifu families are entrenched, and the rest are just a small fight of hundreds and thousands of people in the country dam, who has such a hand to deal with these 30,000 people?

The fourth family has strength, except for the Cui Lu family, only the Wang family is left to be An Langya, who never pays attention to the mundane world, and implements the nobleness of the scholar family most thoroughly, how can he commit such a murder. The Xie family is still in the Xie family, the Xie family is proficient in the way of literature and ink Confucius and Mencius, and is obsessed with the teaching of literature and Taoism, and the Xie family is good friends with the Lu family, if he really helps, how can he act so secretively, it seems that he wants to go incognito to give Meng Tuo a big bargain?

Changting thought about it, but couldn't find an answer anyway.

Meng Tuo looked at Changting, pursed his thin lips, sighed softly, finally raised his lips and smiled, and took Changting into his arms, "There is Cao Pi born like a car cover in the front, and Chen Sheng and Wu Guangyu have the words in the belly, you should take this as a sign of God's will and enjoy the prosperous world." ”

"Celestial signs?" Changting sneered in Meng Tuo, "It's man-made, what's the omen?" If it is really a heavenly omen, then it is also you and your brother who are blessed, then wouldn't it be necessary for you or your brother to ascend the throne as emperors, so as to be worthy of this heavenly omen? ”

Meng Tuo said in a deep voice, "I don't want to enter the Showa Palace, I have never had such thoughts. Changying's eldest brother is a descendant of Duke Lu, how could the head of the Heisei Lu family want this world. I am only for the humerus of the pure minister, and the eldest brother of Changying is only at the helm of the Lu family, which can help the world to be peaceful and prosperous, but I will never be the lord of the world. Only with moral heirlooms can it be a thousand years. Farming and reading heirlooms, more than ten generations. Poetry and books are heirlooms, five generations are unhindered, dynasties change, how can there be an emperor who is not replaced? I know that I only have the ability to fight the country, and I have no skill to defend the country. Brother Changying is used to idle clouds and wild cranes, and when the world is peaceful, he will only retreat to Pingcheng, write books and speak, and live for generations. ”

There is no imperial family that will not be replaced, only a family of scholars who will not fall for a hundred years.

It's just that now that the scholar clan is withering, the family will eventually choose a path for themselves, the Cui family chose the court, the Xie family chose Confucius and Mencius, the Wang family can't bear it, and the Lu family will eventually choose a road for themselves, choose a road that can protect their descendants for all generations, and the Spring and Autumn Period is prosperous. Lu Changying knows very well that ascending the throne as the king is by no means a good way for the Lu family, and there is even a suspicion of lowering the price, and later generations will even have the Lu family's praying mantis catching cicadas and yellow finches behind, hiding in the shadows to take the opportunity to encroach on the world that the Shi family has worked so hard to build. Zhuge Zhenjing tried his best to support Liu Bei's child, and Huo Guang was entrusted to support the young master, is this world tempting or not? Above 10,000 people, the destiny of heaven returns, of course, tempting!

It's just that for Meng Tuo and Lu Changying, there are more tempting things than the world.

Meng Tuo said again in a deep voice, "What's more, there is still a San Lang in the Shi family, and he is the rightful heir." When the time comes, I will do the flesh and blood of human life, and the elder brother Changying will teach the elder brother to govern the country and the country, Ah Chuang has a gentle temperament, but he also has the blood of a soldier, and he is decisive in killing but does not care about human life, and he will be informed by reason, rule the world by law, and assisted by his subordinates. If I succeed to the throne, how will the world judge? How can Ah Chuang be regarded as a prince to listen to the teachings? When Ah Chuang becomes an adult, if I don't pay him back in this world, it will be unjust. If I return him, he has no foundation to govern the country and secure the country, and I will be unkind to the people in the world. The Shi family raised me, raised me, taught me, and saved me, how could I be such an unkind and unrighteous person? ”

Meng Tuo's idea was established, Changting silently put his mind down, and his heart was even more happy, only to feel that the husband and wife had a tacit understanding, she rejected Queen Yu with her front foot, and Meng Tuo made a stand with her on the back foot, what is it if it is not a tacit understanding? Changting turned his head to look at Meng Tuo, Erlang's eyes were resolute, his facial features were upright, his forehead was full, he knew good and evil, he knew right from wrong, he loved her more, protected her, respected her, respected her, and also had the world in his heart, knowing Dunlun's common sense, Changting leaned over, touched Meng Tuo's forehead with his forehead, and comforted him softly, "If the second brother knows under the spring, he will definitely be very pleased." ”

At the mention of Shi Kuo, the corners of Meng Tuo's mouth twitched, and his expression instantly mourned, hugging the long pavilion tighter.

The pain of death can only be diluted by time.

Changting also hugged Meng Tuo tightly with his backhand.

Under the pen of Lu Changying, the Showa Hall even issued three chapters of preferential treatment for refugees, encouraged the conscription of the army, and even came up with terms to recruit the grass and homeless people who supported the mountains and stood on their own like a small fight, Lu Changying both issued preferential regulations, and issued heavy regulations, which stated that "those who disturb people's houses, encroach on people's property, and commit civil crimes will be sent to the city patrol camp and health department." Those who disturb people's houses, encroach on people's property, and commit civil crimes will be sent to the forbidden city camp immediately, and they will be punished with a rod of 50 boards, fined three taels of silver, and five stones of grain. "The rod blames fifty boards, this is a military stick, fifty boards are to kill people, and heavy codes are used in troubled times, which fundamentally prevents the soldiers of Zhao'an from disturbing the people and stirring up trouble.

With Jiankang as the center and opening the city gate, the influence of the Shi family gradually radiated to the surrounding three states. Yue Sanye personally marched to Yongzhou, escorted his parents and children under the horse, and controlled the Cui family with a thunderous force, and then sent a team of people to find Shi Kuo's body, and quickly whipped a book back to Jiankang to tell the public, the letter said that he had subdued Yue Fan, but he wanted to send it back to Jiankang to whip and show the public? Shi Meng dictated, Meng Tuo put down the pen, and asked Yue Sanye to dispose of Yue Fan by himself, and there was no need to bring it back to Jiankang. Meng Tuo came back to talk to Changting about the matter, and Changting suddenly remembered in his mind that when he saw Yue Fan for the first time, the young man was squatting on a stone and holding a dog's tail grass in his mouth, looking like he was not afraid of heaven and earth, Changting's eyes suddenly turned red, and he smiled, "The sage spared Yue Fan's life." ”

Asking Yue Laosan to reinforce Yue Fan was just to give Yue Laosan a chance to deal with it himself.

Yue Laosan only has this only son, whether he leaves Yue Fan a life or not, he has the final say, there is only one, and the name Yue Fan can no longer be allowed to live, whether Yue Fan is dead or not, in Jiankang, Yue Fan is dead.

This is the emperor's trade-off, even if Yue Fan lost a son, he can't push Yue Laosan to the other side of the river, since his son can't come back, then the strong generals must be co-opted.

Changting turned his face and told Yu Niang about this, Yu Niang was silent for a long time, and only after a long time did she raise her head with red eyes, and grinned at Chang Ting, "It's good to let him die, I can not miss him when I die, think about him, hate him." When I think that it was because of him that you almost died, I wanted to cramp his muscles and skin him. In the township, the long-term workers who betrayed the master's family were drowned by the spitting stars, and it was not a pity for him to die, not even a little about people's loyalty and affection, or at least in my heart, he finally became a bad person. ”

Changting rubbed Yu Niang's head, and his throat was very sour.

It's just a pity.

The young man who has come all the way can't imagine that it will be such an ending. Yue Fan felt that Meng Tuo was belittled by a woman's affairs, so he threw himself into the Cui family, listened to the slander of the Cui family, and made a huge mistake, but it was a mistake to reach an irreparable situation. Even if Yue Fan is still alive, without the protection of the Yue family, without the orders of thousands of troops, without the grace of the Shi family, in this troubled world, with Yue Fan's talent, it is still unknown whether he can survive.

Some people in the court have a keen sense of smell, and found that the 30,000 people outside Jiankang City were inexplicably defeated by the change of the high platform that day, and at the moment they asked the sage to ask Meng Tuo to be the general of the town on the grounds of the Mandate of Heaven, intending to hold Meng Tuo high, and even there were children in the market singing "General Tiger, Heavenly Gain, Breaking the City Wall, No Resistance", alluding to Meng Tuo's destiny, and entered Jiankang City without a single soldier.

This is someone praising Mengtuo.

If Meng Tuo has this heart, of course, he can take advantage of the trend, but the problem is that whether it is Meng Tuo or Changting, they don't want to!

Meng Tuo turned to invite Shi Meng, and set up Shi Chuang as the prince as soon as possible, in order to seek peace of mind in the world, but Shi Meng stayed in the middle and did not send it, but on the grounds that the palace had not yet settled down and the foreign man did not enter the inner court, he let Shi Chuang temporarily live in the Mirror Garden, and he was with Meng Tuo every day, so that others did not know what Shi Meng was thinking.

“… Ah Tuo and the third child are brothers, it is better to say that they are uncles and nephews, they have always been Ah Tuo's care, but now it is nothing, but the rumors in Jiankang are terrifying. Always wondering if Mo is not a saint for Baoshi, but put him and Atuo together? After all, now that Shi Chuang has an accident, Atuo is the first to be criticized and suspected. Changting and his brother talked about this, the old god was there, and he didn't see a sad face, just gossip, "Atuo has no ambition, and he has no point, and the saint has always known it." If Ah Tuo had half of this thought, and when he heard the news of Shi Kuo's death in the camp, he secretly ordered the killer to kill Shi Chuang, how could Wang Lang make a military order and swear to defend Shi Chuang to the death? ”

When Meng Tuo received the letter, his first reaction was to protect Shi Chuang, just in case, just to leave the last insurance for the Shi family, and Shi Meng would not know about it.

Lu Changying leaned on the warm couch, and covered his knees with a whole white mink and a large shawl, which lined people's faces with noble and long faces, and only heard him chuckle three times, "Of course Shi Meng knows." Put it next to Ah Tuo, go in and out closely, Ah Tuo has a heavy army, and he can naturally keep the stone safe, which is one of them. The two have always had a close relationship, both poverty and hardship, and now Atuo risked his life to protect his safety, in the future, Shi Chuang will of course feel one or two, Atuo can naturally sit on the fishing platform, and be safe and sound, this is the second. Lu Changying's index finger was slender, and he gently lifted the hanging cross-patterned window frame, and it could be seen from the crack that the two people in the Huxin Pavilion got along harmoniously, "Third, of course, it is also crucial. Shi Chuang has not yet decided to marry, if he ascends the throne as the emperor, then who will be the queen? ”

Changting looked at Lu Changying's eyes, and saw the green tiles and red paint, warm in winter, lush vegetation, a girl in a green satin seawater river cliff skirt leaning on the pillar and holding a book to look at it in detail, a seven-foot boy sat beside her and looked at the girl in detail, both of them were very serious, but here Lang looked at it and turned red ears, and gradually spread to the cheeks.

The drunkard's intention is not to drink, and the building near the water will get the moon first.

Changting squinted slightly, "Shi Kuo just died..."

Shi Kuo has just died, how can Shi Chuang, who is a younger brother, be married!

"Shi Kuo is dead, but the world is not yet unified. Everyone can see that the Shi family is not the Fu family, the Shi family is stronger than the Fu family, the wrist is more iron-blooded, and the ambition is greater. The Shi family continues to sit big, the scholars must retreat, my Lu family's family motto is the way of Confucius and Mencius, the benevolent are invincible, if the Haiyan River is clear, the world sings and dances, it doesn't hurt for my Lu family to retreat and retreat, but will other scholars think so? How to make the old and the new smoothly alternate, it depends on the emperor's ability," Lu Changying has always been very sensible, and his tone is flat, "As far as I know, Shi Meng may not live long, the stimulation brought to him by Shi Kuo's death this time is too great, and now it is just a strong support." ”

So what better way than to let Shi Chuang marry Lu Changning to consolidate Shi Chuang's position, gain Meng Tuo's loyalty, get the support of the Lu clan, and win the tolerance of the Shi clan?

Shi Chuang is not Shi Kuo after all, Shi Kuo can achieve his goal on his own, but Shi Chuang can't.

Lu Changying stretched out his hand and pressed down the window frame, leaving no gaps at all, and his voice was light, "I'm ready to agree." ”

Changting squinted out of the gap again, sighed, and looked at his brother, "Changning was pampered and raised by me, if she wants to enter the forbidden court and fight with women for a man, she will not necessarily win." ”

"Others take the single-plank bridge, she takes the Yangguan Road, there is no need to be afraid of intrigues and tricks, Yangcheng is the right way is what the queen should do." Lu Changying smiled again, "Actually, whether a woman can win a fight or not, don't look at women, look at men, if men are tough enough, why should women go to the battlefield." If a man is not tough enough, even if he encounters a god and kills a god, what if he encounters a ghost and kills a ghost? Lu Changying said again, "Shi Chuang grew up with us, upright, tolerant, and firm, not extremely smart, but better than modest personality and rationality." Shi Kuo is wise and close to the demon, but he mistook Qingqing's life, if he was a gentleman who did not stand up and chose to guard Jiankang, how could he lose his life? I didn't approve of Changning marrying into the Shi family, and there was also the factor of Shi Kuo, Qingshao and him have been in love for several years, and he still said that he would give up, let alone others? This brother is too dangerous for anyone to know what he wants to do next. ”

In short, Shi Kuo is too assertive, not easy to compromise, and a burden to others and himself.

Such a person is suitable to be an emperor, because he is too smart to need other people's advice, he can control everything, he is a wolf, and he is also a lone wolf.

Shi Chuang is different, Shi Chuang is smart but not very smart, can accept advice and follow kindness, and can also maintain independent thinking, the monarch should be like a big river, accepting streams, not gems, and standing alone.

Lu Changying suffered a loss in his early years, his legs and feet have not been very good, and his legs will be numb after sitting for a long time, so he knocked his knees on his shoulders, and then said, "Shi Chuang needs the Lu family, and the Lu family also needs Shi Chuang, and the Shi clan and the royal family must establish an unbreakable connection in order to be stable and relaxed, otherwise it will be-for-tat." Whichever side is forced to be ruthless, only civilians will suffer. We must be the first in the world. Lu Changying looked at the silhouette of a tree branch swaying outside the window lattice, and finally smiled, "What's more, Changning doesn't want to marry." ”

Yu Gong, the Lu family needs to stand up, and when this transition period, on behalf of the Shi family, express support to the emperor.

Yu Private, Changning and Shi Chuang are indeed a good match, and they have each other's hearts.

Changting sighed, counting as agreement.

Shi Kuo died, in order to express mourning, Shi Chuang mourned for three years, but there is still "to be Shi Chuang out of the mourning period, and the young daughter of the Lu family will marry" The news came out, and now I feel that Shi Chuang is on the throne, and there is no need to worry about the Lord changing his course all day long, the situation has stabilized, the momentum of the Shi family is like a bamboo, and even the good news, Yue Laosan is full of strength to consolidate Yongzhou, take Gao County and Linyi, and it is also with Huang Shen General to join up and smash Huanglong, the army is in Changzhi, relying on the Taihang Mountain march is intended to be in Fuji. Meng Tuo was ordered to take charge of the patrol battalion guard department in Jiankang, and more than 10,000 people were transferred to the large battalion for training, training elite soldiers, and training generals. Before the spring passed, Xie Zhirong finally gave birth to a little girl with bright eyes and bright teeth, Lu Changying was very relieved, named Tan Tan, Queen Yu gave ten chapters of Baoyu, hundreds of ancient books, countless gold and silver, very honored.

The mirror garden was closed, and in the middle of the year, Changting was diagnosed as pregnant, Meng Tuo was ecstatic, and immediately took leave and returned home, staying by Changting's side all day long, not leaving half a step. Changting sighed that this little guy will look at the water, know when the world is gradually peaceful, and when will he come, and he will definitely be the grass on the wall when he grows up.

In the middle of summer, in the heat of summer, Meng Tuo shook the fan while gossiping with the Changting parents, was looking at the green leaves blowing in the wind, saw Shuangxi hurriedly took a letterhead, came to the side of the two, and whispered, "... He who was thrown at the porter said that we should come and deliver a message to the general, but he only said eight words, and the general would definitely see him... Beneath the walls, 20,000 people died..."

Meng Tuo stood up abruptly and asked in a loud voice, "What is the situation of the person?" ”

"The porter said that the man was eight feet tall, wearing a hat on his head, and his face was full of beard, as if he was deliberately trying to hide his facial features."

Meng Tuo asked again, "Is the person still at the door?" ”

"It's gone, it's fast, throw away the letterhead, and leave as soon as you're done." Double Happiness Answer.

Meng Tuo took the letterhead and opened it to look at it, his face sank. Changting leaned over to look, and the letterhead said "After dusk, next to the school field, go alone", Changting's eyes narrowed slightly, "I'm afraid it's a fraud?" It's just a matter of making a mistake, Fu Ji is not dead yet, if you have something, there is a lot of pressure on the Yu Shi family. ”

"Others only know that on the day of the Gaotai Change, the 30,000 people arranged by the Cui family outside the city gate were scattered and died, so there is nothing to be afraid of. But I didn't know that only 20,000 people died at the beginning, and 10,000 were prisoners of war who were tied hand and foot together! Meng Tuo's voice was slightly deep, he turned around, and looked at Changting seriously, "Gillian, I have to go, if I don't go, I don't know whose kindness it is for my whole life, help me out of the siege." Looking down on the world is like smoke, and remembering that kindness is like blood, I should go. Meng Tuo seemed to be relieved and smiled, "Maybe he is a chivalrous ranger, who paid 10,000 for 10,000 that day, just for the right way in the world." If he wants me to die, why should he bother with it that day? ”

Also.

Changting thought about it, put his hand on his lower abdomen, and nodded, which was considered a response.

Meng Tuo held the letterhead in his hand, went to the appointment alone, at dusk, saw a person with his back to the school field, tall, should be a practitioner, Meng Tuo did not approach, the person heard the sound and turned around, Meng Tuo hurriedly took two steps forward, hugged his fists on his chest, and said loudly, "In the next Meng Tuo coming, I don't know your high name, so that Meng Tuo knows who saved someone in danger that day!" ”

The man raised his jaw slightly, and his pronunciation was unfamiliar, "So-and-so, surnamed Meng, name in." ”

The man's facial features gradually became clear from under the shadow of the hat, with a high nose and deep eyes, and dark brown pupils. Meng Tuo's body trembled, and his heart seemed to be hit by a heavy hammer!

This is... His father!?

There are several beautiful relatives in that account, a few brave and warlike sons-in-law, high-ranking and unsympathetic fathers?

The father who ignored his mother and threw him to the Shi family without any regret after his mother's death?

The father who did not raise him, did not raise him, did not love him?

Meng Tuo was speechless for a long time, but he heard the man say a staccato passage in a not very proficient Chinese dialect.

"After Shi Lao Er died, I originally thought that you wanted to be the emperor. So I installed people, spread rumors in Jiankang to help you, and help you solve those people who get in the way, but who knows, you don't want to be on top, your mother-in-law is pregnant, and you don't even want errands, so you guard her. ”

It turned out to be him.

Meng Tuo had mixed feelings, not knowing how he should feel, he opened his mouth and only spit out a few words, "You... Why..."But before he could finish a few words, Meng Tuo stopped, there was no point, why did he do these things, it was meaningless to ask this question, what could it be. Whether it is for power, for oneself, for oneself, for one's own interests, or for the public, these are meaningless to Mengtuo.

Meng Jin smiled, "Guarding her, too." If you're happy, that's it. Your mother only hopes that you will be happy for the rest of your life,"

Meng Tuo was stunned in place, Meng Jin reached out and patted Meng Tuo on the shoulder, thought about it, and had nothing to say, so he hugged Meng Tuo. The two men who were also tall hugged each other for the first time in their lives, Meng Jin let go very quickly, and immediately turned away, not giving Meng Tuo a chance to speak, and the back of the fading away was facing Meng Tuo, and there seemed to be forbearance in the voice, "Let's go!" Until next time! ”

Until next time.

Next time, which one?

Meng Tuo didn't chase him, just like when Meng Jin sent him to Shi's house, he didn't chase him. He is half Hu and half Han, and in the realm of the Hu people, his brothers may use him as a nutrient before he grows up. When he was sent to the Shi family and taken care of by his aunt, could it be the most appropriate way for this man who left only one back to hide in his heart?

Maybe he didn't abandon him?

Meng Tuo's eyes were moist, his heart was sour, he looked up at the sky, the sky was blue, and occasionally auspicious clouds passed by, like emerald, very open.

It's like the sky of the steppe.

All the skies in this world are equally vast.

This is probably the fairest thing in the world.

Late at night, Meng Tuo returned to the house to stay, Changting was pregnant and sleepy, and heard Meng Tuo's squirming sound in a daze, and after a while, he fell into Meng Tuo's arms, and asked him half-asleep and half-awake, "Finished?" Who is it? ”

Meng Tuo was silent, and after a long time, Fang replied to her with a smile, "If you are really a chivalrous ranger, you were originally in favor of justice, and today you are familiar with me." ”

Changting laughed, laughing softly, like a sweet rain ticking in Meng Tuo's heart, "Then dare to be affectionate, you can tell the child in the future, there are no wonders in the world, let him have a long insight." ”

Meng Tuo's hand gently covered Changting's lower abdomen, and replied gently, "Okay." ”

After a long time, Changting fell asleep again, as if she vaguely heard Meng Tuo whispering to the ends of her hair, as if talking to herself.

"I want to take my children to see the water in the south of the Yangtze River, the grass in the north, the mountains in Bashu, and the snow in the north of the desert, and I want to be a good father, a good husband, and a good general. I will tell him to be brave, to be kind, to be motivated, that blood is thicker than water, and that only blood in this world cannot be deceived..."

Changting instantly burst into tears.

Even if you have been deceived, betrayed, and slandered, so what.

These are no excuses to be able to love anymore.

Life is short, and you must live bravely to be successful.
