Chapter 295: Fighting Again (4)
Although Wei Qiutai chose to submit to obedience, he was not treated badly, and Gongsun Du still let him maintain the last dignity of the king of the clan. There was no one to watch, and it was still the former palace guard of Wei Qiutai, but the number was only twenty, but after the destruction of Xianbei, there were not many people left. And even the palace guards who were forced to leave were able to return to the field safely.
In addition, Gongsun Du also arranged a small mansion for Wei Qiutai, which was more than enough to accommodate his wife and children, as well as twenty guards.
Out of the former Marudu Palace, Wei Qiutai returned to the palace under the escort of ten guards, that is, the original palace guards.
"Big ...... Father! ā
As soon as he returned to the house, Jian Ju appeared in front of Wei Qiutai, and Xu had just changed his words, and he almost made a mistake again.
"That grandson...... The general went to his father, but what happened? ā
Wei Qiutai looked at the worry in the depths of Jian Zai's eyes, and couldn't help but feel a little more relieved that my son had finally grown up!
In addition to being relieved, Wei Qiutai remembered the meeting with Gongsun Du not long ago, and couldn't help but look at his son, his heart moved, and he opened his mouth to talk about the previous conversation with Gongsun Du.
Finally, he asked, "What do you think?" ā
Jian Ju was surprised after hearing this, and subconsciously said, "So aren't we actually affected by Liaodong?" ā
A hint of darkness flashed on the table of Wei Qiu, and he nodded, and the relief in his eyes was a little richer.
"He ......"
Jian Ju was suddenly angry, and he was about to scold, but he was deflated as soon as he was about to say it, "Hey, it's come to this, what can we do?" There are only one or two thousand clansmen now, and I am afraid that the clan will be wiped out if we toss it again! ā
Yes, if you toss it again, you may be wiped out!
Wei Qiutai couldn't help but sigh when he heard this, how could he not know this truth, but after so many years of inheritance in Fuyu, it was lost in his hands, and the country was lost, and he couldn't afford this crime! Now that you have the opportunity to return to the country, is it so easy to give up?
There is a way to know the son and the father! But there is also the truth of knowing the father and the son!
Jian Ju saw what Wei Qiutai meant at a glance, and explained, "Father, do you think we really have a chance?" ā
"What do you mean?" It's not that Wei Qiutai doesn't understand the meaning of this, but he can't understand what Jian Ju is going to say.
"Although we are affected by Liaodong, if there is no Liaodong, will Xianbei let us go? Look at the fate of Goguryeo again, will this one from Liaodong let us go again? Or do you want to take your people north? You must know that many people went to the north and never came back, and the 20,000 of us may not even be able to survive this winter! ā
Jane Ju was thinking about her father, don't blame me, it's too cold in the north, I will never go!
Wei Qiutai thinks it is reasonable, the Han people were weak in the past, and they fought many times, well, after fighting, the "contradictions" between the two sides accumulated deeply. Wei Qiutai has a deep understanding of this matter in the past two days, and the people in the city are not very friendly when they look at them.
Tanshi Huai was also busy dealing with other big clans, so he naturally didn't pay attention to these small clans.
Now it's different, he took refuge in Gongsun Du, although it hasn't been spread yet, but it is a matter of time, and Tanshi Huai will definitely not let him go.
Gongsun Du, I'm afraid it's almost the same, and after taking refuge, he betrayed again, and now he doesn't do it, that's because there is Xianbei, and he will ...... in the future
Wei Qiutai asked tentatively, "Then what do you think we should do?" ā
Jian Ju rolled his eyes and said, "Since we have taken refuge in Liaodong, then we are all the way, our own people, in this case, we might as well help Liaodong defeat Xianbei, so as to fight for a better life for the clansmen." ā
Wei Qiutai frowned slightly when he heard this, but did not answer immediately and made a decision. This made Jian Wei, who had been staring at him, have a flash of disappointment on his face, but because he had other thoughts in his heart, he didn't urge, so he waited anxiously.
"It's just that now Tanshi Huai is in full swing, and even the Han land has been defeated hundreds of cities, most of the Central Plains, who else can stop him? Can Liaodong stop him for a while, can he stop him for a lifetime? ā
In the bottom of Wei Qiutai's heart, Gongsun Du's young face first appeared, and then Tanshi Huai's serious and majestic face, and he couldn't help but compare the two.
Long.
Wei Qiutai couldn't help but shake his head, although Gongsun Du's momentum is not small, but compared with the grassland overlord, it is still so bad. This is true in every sense of the word.
Tanshi Huai has stepped on countless people to this day, including the Xiongnu, Wuhuan, Ding Ling and other prestigious clans, as if it is another Mao Dun Shan Yu! A well-deserved overlord of the steppe!
If the sandalwood acacia is already in the waning mountains, then the grandson of Gongsun, who is only more than 20 years old, is naturally more promising, but the sandalwood is only forty, and there are at least ten or twenty years to live. For such a long time, Liaodong ......
It's hard to survive!
"Father!"
A call pulled back the heart of Tanshi Huai, swept it lightly, and said, "What's the matter?" ā
"Forehead......" Jian Ju was able to calm down at first, but as time passed, Wei Qiutai still didn't speak, and couldn't help but be a little anxious, so he decided to open his mouth to remind him, but he didn't expect to get such an answer, and his mind was stunned for a moment.
Jian Ju quickly came back to his senses, and when he saw Wei Qiutai frowning, his heart trembled, and he hurriedly said, "Father, how have you thought about it?" ā
When Wei Qiutai heard this, he felt that he was distracted.
After thinking about it again, and feeling that it was time to give the clansmen a stable and prosperous life, Wei Qiutai finally made up his mind and said, "Okay, that's it!" ā
After speaking, Wei Qiutai was about to go out to find Gongsun Du, but before he could take a step, he was stopped by Jian Ju.
"Wait!"
"What's wrong? Repented? Isn't that your idea? Wei Qiutai was very surprised.
Jian was anxious in her heart, but she said unhurriedly, "Father, are you too anxious to go as soon as you come back?" ā
Does it matter?
Wei Qiutai was still puzzled in his heart, but after looking at Jian Ju twice, he understood that Jian Ju was thinking about his future. Wei Qiutai was both happy and angry in his heart.
I am glad that my children have finally grown up, have their own opinions, can plan for the future, and know how to plan for a rainy day; The angry thing is that if he had such an awareness when he was a prince in the past, maybe with the joint efforts of father and son, Buyeo would not have come to this point.
However, the matter has come to this point, and Wei Qiutai can only teach Jian Ju a little more thing in the end.
"Well, you have a point, and I'll talk about it tomorrow."
"Huh?" Jian Ju thought that he would be caught, but he didn't expect it to be like this, and he couldn't help but exclaim.
Wei Qiutai shook his head, ignored Jian Ju's shouting, and walked straight away.
Jian Ju looked at Wei Qiutai's back, his eyes were full of doubts, and in the end, he even grabbed his hair and made it very messy, just like his mood.
That night, Jane couldn't sleep tossing and turning, guessing what her father meant, worrying about her future, and ...... I don't know how long it took before I fell asleep.
Knock, knock, knock~
A crisp knock sounded at the door.
"Who?"
Jian Ju was woken up, and he was very unhappy that these guards were so incompetent that they disturbed Prince Ben's sleep!
After thinking about it, Jian Juju's mind cleared, and this time he remembered that he was no longer a prince now, so he quickly got up and opened the door.
"Father!"
Seeing the people outside the door, Jian Ju was quite surprised, "Why are you here?" ā
Wei Qiutai snorted lightly, walked into the house, and said, "See for yourself what time it is, it's still early?" ā
Jian Ju looked at the sky, the sun had already risen, smiled awkwardly, closed the door, and turned around to put on his coat.
"As you say!"
After Jian Ju got dressed, Wei Qiutai beckoned him to sit down, and then said quite solemnly, "Now that we belong to Liaodong, we naturally want to contribute to Liaodong." ā
Jian Ju nodded, but he was still puzzled, but fortunately, Wei Qiutai didn't mean to let him speak, and continued-
"Remember what I told you about being a king?"
"As a monarch, you should have the ability to reconcile the contradictions and abilities of your subordinates."
"As a king, you should make good use of loyal ministers, but you must also use opportunistic ministers, they all have their own abilities!"
"But there's one person who can't use it, and that'sā"
"Traitor!"
"If I can betray you the first time, there will be a second time!"
"This is our most hated vassal! It is also the most scrupulous vassal, especially before the rebellion, if you can catch it, it is great! ā
After speaking, Wei Qiutai left the room in a trance on Jian Ju's face.
