Chapter Seventy-Six: A Long Talk
Zheng Sheng thought about it again and again, and finally said to him: "Maybe you don't need to do it yourself, that person will kill himself?" β
Wen Wei was puzzled: "Self-destruction? β
"Sima Xuan's personal vendetta will naturally make many people dissatisfied with him. Perhaps, sooner or later, he will ...... Killed. Zheng Sheng didn't know the ending of Sima Xuan, but he thought that if the rebellion of the eight kings couldn't kill the county king, when it came to the chaos of the five chaos, the royal family of the Jin Kingdom would also die, right? A wicked person like Sima Miao should not live to be established in the end...... Right?
"If the court is dissatisfied with him, how can it be so indulgent? The slaughter of the heroes is full of families, and they have never been convicted, which court can do it! Wen Wei's words became deeper and deeper the more he spoke.
Zheng Sheng could hear his anger and dissatisfaction with the aftermath of the incident, but he could only remain silent. He was also extremely speechless about the political ecology of the Western Jin Dynasty, and it was no wonder that such a strange thing as the Eight Kings Rebellion broke out.
Zheng Sheng looked left and right, and there was no one except the two of them. Their conversations could perhaps be more... Be bold and open.
But by this time, Wen Wei had already walked to the cabin.
Zheng Sheng hurriedly said: "Brother Wen! Wenwei stopped.
He gritted his teeth, walked to Wen Wei's side, and whispered: "This country is doing this, how can it be in the long run?" I dare to assert that within ten years, the world will be in chaos! Giving his life in order to kill a villain, Ling Zun's spirit in the sky will not rest in peace! β
Wen Wei turned around slowly: "You mean, the world will be chaotic?" β
Zheng Sheng explained with some hesitation: "I'm just guessing." But you can also think for yourself. Although there are still virtuous ministers and auxiliary ministers in the court, what is the situation of that emperor? Once Zhang Hua and these people die of old age and leave office, can the emperor suppress the clans that hold military power in various places? What's more, we are too good to the Hu people. Over the years, how many Hu people have moved to the country? There are hundreds of thousands of households, if not more! Once there is a civil strife, will the Hu people take advantage of the fire to rob? β
"It's cool to do it yourself, but witnessing the collapse of this rotten imperial court is revenge in the true sense!"
Wen Wei looked at Zheng Sheng with strange eyes: "Thank you for your enlightenment." Listening to your words made me pause. I'll listen to you, and I'll wait a whileβfor this chaos in the world. It's just, I'm wondering, who told you this point of view? β
Zheng Sheng smiled and said casually: "These things, there are my own thoughts, there are also the worries that Master Qiu told me, and some of them are the result of discussions among a few people in our 'Sanquan Hall'. β
Wen Wei thought for a moment: "I really don't know what faction the teacher in your private school came from, the Zongheng family of Guiguzi?" Or is it a legalist? Soldiers? β
Zheng Sheng stubbornly explained: "Where is the Zongheng family now? Qiu Fuzi was just a Confucian student. β
This is the end of this long conversation. Wen Wei eventually stayed.
Persuading Wenwei to stay was Zheng Sheng's subconscious decision. In addition to Wen Xiaoting's sake, there are naturally other considerations.
On the one hand, Zheng Sheng felt that a person who had finally crawled back from the ghost gate was not worth losing his life in order to kill someone! He would have a better way to get revenge.
Nature, on the other hand, is planning for the future.
If you want to survive in troubled times, you naturally need outstanding talents. The people who have been cultivated by their own family, not to mention whether it is good or not, this battle has lost a small half of the most elite members, and I don't know how many of the rest can grow into towering trees.
Recruiting talent from the outside is naturally the best way to complement it.
After Wen Wei is a famous general, he has nothing to say about martial arts, judging from the situation of the last time, he should have practiced martial arts more hard in recent years, and his martial arts have become one step better. In terms of personality and character, although he suffered a catastrophe, he still cares about his little sister. Zheng Sheng can also see from his exchanges with him in the past few days that his character has not become extremely vicious because of family disasters.
With a resolute temperament, excellent martial arts, and good riding skills, can this kind of person be let go? Let him assassinate a fool who doesn't know when he will die at the hands of his kind? It's overkill!
As for saying this to Wen Wei, will it make him have any strange thoughts? Zheng Sheng didn't care about thinking deeply.
Anyway, he did discuss these things superficially with the people of Sanquantang and Qiu Fuzi.
And Qiu Fuzi?
Well, unconsciously, this old man has been out for more than a year......
The river boats were fast, and after passing through the Chibi battlefield decades ago, they arrived at Puyi, the northernmost county of Changsha County. Then, in the evening, they went all the way east and stopped at a small ferry port in Shayang County, Wuchang County.
Huang Zhao told them that they would be able to reach their destination around midnight tomorrow morning. So everyone went to bed early.
Before dawn the next day, Zheng Sheng packed the freshly "baked" mushroom moss liquid and left the cabin, and soon, their boat really arrived in Jiangxia County, which was opposite to the Shaxian Xiakou Ferry Port in Wuchang County.
From here they were to land and ride to the city of Anlu, in the northwest.
Before going ashore, Zheng Sheng finally found an opportunity to talk to Wu Yunlu alone.
"Brother Wu, I like to sniff." Zheng Sheng plucked up his courage.
Wu Yunlu turned around and looked at him expressionlessly: "You are saying this to me at this time, don't you know that you are going to do it soon?" Wive! β
Zheng Sheng smiled bitterly: "I really don't know that girl from the Lu family, I've only met once." It's still her who Sniff met with me. She just wants to unite my forces and get out of the family crisis. I also have an agreement with her, which can be set and cancelled in the future. β
Wu Yunlu was silent for a moment and said with a smile: "I'm actually not her elder. Strictly speaking, she was an orphan with no father, no mother, and no family. She can make her own decisions. However, I have taken care of her for many years, and her parents have been very kind to me. I have no objection to her marrying you, and it is okay to be a concubine. As long as you can always be kind to her. β
Zheng Shenggang breathed a sigh of relief. I only heard his threatening words blow into my ears like a knife: "But if you disappoint and make her sad, I will definitely not spare you!" I'll always be there in the future, I guess you kid won't dare to make a mistake! β
In addition to falling into a certain fear, Zheng Sheng also realized a certain possibility: "You are not leaving? β
Wu Yunlu was silent for a moment: "If you don't go, you have no place to go." Boy, do you have a bowl of rice for me here? β
Zheng Sheng cracked his mouth and smiled: "Of course, I promise: if I have a bite to eat, I won't starve Brother Wu!" β
Zheng Sheng is really afraid and respectful of this Jianghu person, afraid, naturally there is no need to say much, respect, where does it come from? Probably the result of the first impression.
"If I can eat enough, how can Qiang Man beat me!" That sentence was the beginning of Zheng Sheng's first adventure when he walked out of the house.
Wu Yunlu smiled: "Thank you." Well, it's not just me, but also Liu Neng's kid, and those friends of mine you've met, who are also homeless. β
"No problem." Zheng Sheng hesitated for a moment and asked, "Brother Wu, where have you been in the past few years?" β
Wu Yunlu didn't hide it, and briefly told Zheng Sheng about his whereabouts in the past few years. Wu Yunlu really did "business". As the former messenger of the General Altar of the Survival Dao, Wu Yunlu has always wanted to reunite the Survival Dao. But he traveled all over several large states, and the Taoist people withered and scattered, not to mention, the attitude of the vast majority of the remaining people towards Wu Yunlu was prevarication, rejection and even ridicule. His former ambitions gradually wore out, and he finally returned to Nanyang with some people who were willing to follow him, only to hear the conflict between Zheng Sheng and Shi Chong. So, Wu Yunlu led people to chase after him, and at the most critical time, he was able to help.
