Zhang Xiaowu was silent, took a long breath, smiled bitterly, and Hu Li wanted to say something again, but he stopped talking. The two were silent for a long time, and Zhang Xiaowu asked: "I don't know these truths, but even so, a stable empire, no matter how bad it is, is much stronger than a disorderly chaotic world." He thought of Saddam's Iraq and Gaddafi's Libya, two dictators who were put on trial, but the two countries became warlords and warlords who were miserable for the lives of the people, and even if the existing order was not satisfactory, how terrible the world without order was.

Now that the powerful Shi clan already exists, if you want to eradicate the Shi clan, you need the Holy Han Empire to launch a large-scale riot from the bottom up, and the most hurt by the riot is not the Shi clan, but the people, after all, the Shi clan is only a minority, most people are still the people, and the ultimate benefit is only the newly rising "Shi clan".

No matter what system, politics, era, or world, the oppressor will always exist, just as the corrupt criminals can never be killed, what people can do is to make themselves more adaptable, or let the distorted world not collapse.

"Alas......" Zhang Xiaowu let out a long sigh and smiled bitterly.

Hu Lidao: "First, do you know where I'm from? ”

Zhang Xiaowu smiled: "I remember, you are from the state, and you are a wild man in the state." ”

"Hahahaha...... "Hu Li laughed, "and the wild man of Bingzhou, you also know this allusion?" "The so-called wild man of Bingzhou is from a story a hundred years ago, and its content is roughly the same as the story of Lao Wang next door, saying that a businessman from Bingzhou came to Longdu, hooked up with a nun in the temple next to him, and then seduced the wife and concubine of a large family, and seduced several married women, and was finally discovered, and the wild man of Bingzhou fled back to the mountains of Bingzhou.

Zhang Xiaowu said: "When I was in Tucheng, my boss told this meat joke. ”

"Wild men in Bingzhou, wild men in Bingzhou......" Hu Li smacked his lips and asked, "Do you know Jin Zhangcheng in Bingzhou?" ”

"I don't know."

"The geographical location of Jinzhangcheng is relatively special, it is located at the foot of Daxi Mountain, its east side is Bingzhou Dingyang Mansion, and the west side is Yumen Mansion of Yumen Pass, because there was a rebellion in Jinzhangcheng in Bingzhou, and immediately cut off the main road to the Western Regions of the empire, so the imperial court immediately sent the White Tiger Army to Bingzhou to quell the rebellion. After the White Tiger Army arrived in Bingzhou, they were not interested in listening to what the rebel people explained, and the commander of the White Tiger Army ordered the Jinzhang Mansion to be surrounded, and the people of the Jinzhang Mansion were killed. More than 100,000 people in the entire Jinzhang County were slaughtered by the White Tiger Army. Hu Li was full of hatred, "I was one of the few children who escaped from the butcher's knife of the White Tiger Army at that time. ”

Zhang Xiaowu was taken aback, it was the first time he learned about Hu Li's life experience, and it was so bizarre, so he couldn't help but ask: "The White Tiger Army killed your whole family, your enemy should be the White Tiger Army, and it was Dushan Bocai, not the imperial court." ”

Hu Li shook his head and said: "The reason why the people of Jinzhang County rebelled was because Jinzhang Mansion exclusively produced a medicinal insect called Golden Cicada, and I didn't know that the bastard slandered Emperor Taiqian that eating this kind of insect can prolong life, so he ordered that the people of Jinzhang must sacrifice Golden Cicada." But do you know what became of the decree after it reached the Kim Jang Mansion? Each person needs to pay three golden cicadas! You must know that in the entire Jinzhang Mansion, you can only find a hundred golden cicadas a year. ”

He clenched his fists and smashed his fist on the snow, and his fingers were bleeding from the stones on the ground, but he was unaware of it, and continued: "Each person shall pay three, and if they cannot be paid, they shall pay money and food as a fine." Jin Zhang people were overwhelmed, which created a rebellion against the government, but he hoped that the imperial court would stop this mediocre decree. But in order to make meritorious contributions, Na Du Shanbo killed the people of the entire Jinzhang Mansion, the people of the whole mansion, more than 160,000 people, more than 160,000 people! Hu Li cried as he spoke, and the man in his thirties actually cried. He was not drunk, but he thought of the past and the memories of the same year, so he cried bitterly.

Zhang Xiaowu also sighed, and when he saw the servants and people running over when they heard the news, he waved his hand and ordered them: "You guys go down, I'll talk to Hu Li for a while." ”

After listening to the order, although it was strange in their hearts, they still walked away and watched, as the so-called man has tears and does not flick, just because he has not reached the sad place, and I don't know why this Lord Hu is so sad, is it because he wants to leave the general? It turns out that Master Hu is so loyal to the general, which shows that the general's personality is charismatic, and everyone is not following the wrong master.

When Hu Li saw the servant looking at this side, he was embarrassed to get up, and immediately put away his crying, but he still gritted his teeth and said angrily: "In this court, I have done my best to be kind and righteous to him, but if he bears me again, he will not blame me for being ruthless and unrighteous." ”

Zhang Xiaowu immediately said: "I can't oppose it, and you can't oppose it either." I know that you are not angry in your heart, but do you know that Lao Xiao is calm in their hearts? They are also unconvinced, who wants to leave a familiar place and go to a strange place, not to mention friends, even no one to talk to. Always guard against whether others will harm you, set you up, catch your tongue and punish your crimes. They don't want to leave, but can we do the opposite? If we are the opposite, let alone money and food, the most important raw salt and spices will be gone. With more than 40,000 people in Mucheng, can they live a self-sufficient life? He shook his head and pressed one hand on Hu Li's shoulder: "I just think that we are both drunk, these words, you must not tell others, the reason why Mucheng exists, the reason why we live is because the Holy Han Empire is our backer, if we are complacent because we have won a few battles, the end can be imagined." ”

Hu Li was stunned for a while before he nodded and said, "I understand, I just have a breath in my heart, a thief!" the thief! ”

Zhang Xiaowu also shouted at God: "Thief, your mother, throw me in such a broken place!" ”

Hu Li laughed after being stunned for a while, he thought that Zhang Xiaowu was talking about Saibei, but he didn't know that Zhang Xiaowu was talking about this world, so he looked up to the sky and scolded bitterly: "Thief, your mother's God, why wasn't Lao Tzu born to be a rich and noble family!" What sins did Lao Tzu create in his last life? ”

After the two scolded God, they laughed at each other, and after a long time, Zhang Xiaowu suddenly said: "Hu Li, I'm not worried about others, I'm most worried about you." ”

"Oh, I'll try."

"Don't you, your mouth is unscrupulous, there is no villain in our ghost guard, no one speaks ill of you, and no one sues you! But not in other places, that Yizhou is not the territory of our brothers, you go there, you must be cautious, if you can not speak, do not speak. ”

Hu Li said: "First, if I don't speak, won't I die of anger?" I have to speak, I have to speak, you know me, I can't help it. However, I naturally understand your hard work, and I will be careful and careful, and try not to give people a chance. If I really make any mistakes, it's a big deal for me to ask for a return order and go home to be a farmer, how about it? ”

Zhang Xiaowu said: "You are better than being an officer, without the care of the old brothers, others will definitely not tolerate you." ”

"Of course I know it." Hu Lidao.
