Seeing his father's stunned appearance, Xu Shiyang felt a little proud for no reason.

Moreover, this feeling does not seem to come from the current soul, but from the body's reaction - just like a middle two bear child who was recognized by his father for the first time.

Xu Shiyang is soul piercing, originally he thought that he had no feelings for the Xu family and these relatives, just like facing a group of colleagues and bosses, not relatives.

Just like the last time he took the initiative to attack the Tartars, Xu Shiyang also thought: It's a big deal to give his little life, but he didn't think about whether the Xu family would be implicated if he failed.

Because it doesn't matter.

However, now, Xu Shiyang suddenly realized that his body was not completely influential.

This is probably the power of the bloodline? Although this has a small impact.

'It's really troublesome, and I'll have to be kind to my relatives in the future.' ’

No, the main thing is to take into account the thinking of the original owner in the future. ’

Fortunately, Xu Shiyang did not have any ill will towards the Xu family.

At least not yet.

The father and son had their own thoughts, and after a long time, Xu Muhe asked with a little hesitation: "Third brother, don't you want those two villages?" ”

"Of course not, I want to fight, and of course the stronger the strength, the better." Xu Shiyang replied without hesitation: "If it is possible, I even want to get all the dock forts of the Xu family." ”

Xu Muhe frowned, and then asked, "Then ......, you don't want to give it to the fifth brother in a village?" ”

That's true, but that's not what the words say.

"Father, the future you gave Xiao Wu is two dock forts?" Xu Shiyang deliberately raised his eyebrows, pretending to be surprised, and asked, "What is Xiao Wu suitable for, you really don't know?" ”

Maybe it's because of the family history, Xu Shiyang's younger brother is very suitable for the imperial examination.

His uncle and father have sighed many times: If it is still the era of the Great Zhou, Xiao Wu will definitely be able to be admitted to the Jinshi and become the leader of the Xu family.

It's a pity that in Jiangbei today, a blacksmith is more useful than a scholar, and if Xu Shiliu wasn't for the Xu family, the biggest achievement in this life might be to get a job as a bookseller in a dock fort.

"Fifth brother is suitable for studying." Xu Muhe said: "But in Jiangbei today, what's the use of reading? ”

"Jiangbei is useless, Jiangnan is useful." Xu Shiyang said with a smile: "I was thinking, if in a few years, I can really make a name for myself...... ”

"At that time, the family can send Xiao Wu to Jiangnan, worship Xianggong Wen, and take the imperial examination there."

The so-called Wen Xianggong is the general backstage of the main battle faction of the Southern Zhou Dynasty, and he has been the prime minister, and he is a real Xianggong! Although he is now a minister, he is still full of influence, and the Wenchen who advocated the recovery of the old land of Jiangbei, regardless of the faction he belonged to, regarded him as a spiritual leader.

If Xu Shiyang can really play a little prestige in the battle against the Tartars in the future, he will undoubtedly be welcomed by the main battle faction in Jiangnan, and when the time comes, it will not be difficult to ask Xianggong Wen to let his younger brother study and take the imperial examination in Jiangnan.

Xu Muhe suddenly came to his senses, this is indeed the best way out for his youngest son!

Jiangnan is rich in the world, and there is no worry about war, since he was a child, under the guidance of his own Jinshi, Xu Shiliu, who has excellent grades in eight shares, has studied under Wen Xianggong for several years, and the possibility of being admitted to Jinshi is very high!

At that time, the fifth brother will put a state and county outside the splendid and prosperous land in the south of the Yangtze River, or simply be an official in Lin'an, which will be a hundred times stronger than managing a few small villages in the ruined Jiangbei that will be destroyed at any time!

"This matter is ...... and feasible!" Xu Muhe groaned and said, "I also have a little network in Jiangnan, and I can help a little when the time comes." ”

When the imperial court moved south, his rhetoric of staying in Jiangbei was that he did not want his hometown to fall into dust.

The actual reason is the opposite, the main reason why the Xu family did not move south at that time was: the two masters thought that Dajin was about to enter the Central Plains, and they were ready to be a minister from the dragon, but later the Yuan army of the steppe Tatars invaded Dajin's hometown in Liaodong, and the main force of the Jin army that entered the Central Plains was forced to return to Liaodong, which was the main reason why the Xu family failed to become traitors.

Later, the situation outside the border became more and more chaotic, all the Tartars attacked each other, no one could gain a firm foothold in the Central Plains, and the Great Zhou in the south of the Yangtze River passed ten years peacefully, and there were a little signs of returning to the light, the Xu family really couldn't see who could represent the "Mandate of Heaven", and was afraid of standing on the wrong side, which was the main reason why the Xu family failed to become traitors and finally persisted until now as an independent small force.

Of course, this kind of dirty thoughts at that time are now unknown to no one in the world except for the two brothers Xu Mujiang and Xu Muhe.

Now the two brothers, who are still in Jiangnan as jinshi, returned to their hometown to organize volunteers, and insisted on the warriors of the Han family, who are regarded as their own people by the main battle faction in Jiangnan.

This is also the biggest reason why the Xu family's 5 small broken boats can trade in Jiangnan and earn some money to subsidize the family.

It's a pity that the Xu family has been in Jiangbei for ten years, and they don't have a record of being able to get their hands on the Tartars, and they soon disappear from the crowd.

If Xu Shiyang can really make a little difference, the situation will naturally be completely different.

Even, Wen Xianggong "suddenly" remembered the heroes who were still fighting in Jiangbei, and it was not possible to take the initiative to invite aspiring young people to study in the academy under his command!

"This is indeed the best way out for the fifth brother!" Xu Muhe said eagerly: "If the third brother can cut off a thousand, no, five hundred Tartar heads, no matter which Tartar it is, as a father, he can ensure the future of the fifth brother in Jiangnan!" ”

Xu Shiyang smiled and did not answer.

After a long while, Xu Muhe realized that the kid in front of him was also his own son.

This is tantamount to making the eldest son work hard for the future of the younger son!

The second master of the Xu family suddenly felt deeply guilty, Xu Shiyang's mother had passed away for a long time, and the impression left on him by the woman from the Jiangbei landlord and gentry family was already a little vague - it was completely incomparable with the current new lady who was born in a small family in the south of the Yangtze River and was full of charms.

Coupled with the fact that Xu Shiliu is indeed good at reading, these reasons make Xu Muhe's feelings for his second son far more than the attention he gives to his eldest son.

However, no matter what, Xu Shiyang is also his eldest son, as a father, is it necessary to be so favoritism?

'Am I going too far?' ’

Once people feel guilty, many things that they originally insisted on will be compromised.

"The matter of the fifth brother has been decided in this way, and his father will also keep an eye on his studies in the future." Xu Muhe said: "But, what are you going to do?" You are the eldest son, and your father wants to know, what do you think about your future? ”

Xu Shiyang glanced at his father in surprise, and he didn't understand why his father, who had never been very kind to him, suddenly cared about himself.
