Fang Xu picked up the chopsticks, gave Hua Qianduo a piece of duck meat, and sent the dish into his mouth.

He thought to himself: When will I be able to build the Justice Pavilion into a strong army? The Battle of Jingyan is coming soon, and with the benevolence of Emperor Jianwen, he will definitely not listen to my advice and be ruthless to Zhu Di.

I can't change history, but I have to work out of the heavy history. Otherwise, what can I do in this ancient world of kings and defeats?

I'm not a martial arts person, and I don't want to lick blood on the tip of a knife.

I once served as a courtier under the dragon chair of Emperor Jianwen, and if it is really King Yan who wins the world in the future, I may become a real generalist!

With King Yan's ruthlessness, I may have no choice but to retreat to the mountains and forests.

But that's not my life.

……

Hua Qianduo smiled: "Big brother, what do you want?" Here comes the rice! ”

She smiled affectionately and pushed a bowl of rice in front of Fang Xu.

Fang Xu blushed.

He was so distracted that he didn't even notice that the shop had brought a lot of food and put it on the table.

He smiled awkwardly: "Men, there are always things to think about. Since I have formed the Justice Pavilion, I have to run the Justice Pavilion well. This is my business. ”

Hua Qianduo exclaimed: "Enterprise? What does it mean? ”

Fang Xu blushed again, quite embarrassed.

He inadvertently said a modern phrase that he would not understand if he knew that the flowers were a thousand flowers.

So, he took a bite of food and said, "Sister, have you heard of Beizhou?" To the north of Beizhou is Beiping. ”

Hua Qianhua looked at Fang Xu in a daze.

She really didn't understand Fang Xu's thoughts.

Fang Xu saw that the flowers were thousands and did not say anything, so he took the vegetables to eat again.

Then, he said: "I still think about a lot of things, such as, are the generals under my command loyal? How will the imperial court quell the impending rebellion of the vassal kings? When will the court use me to quell the rebellion? So, I'm going to go north first to see the terrain? Customs? Folk customs? How dangerous are the mountains? How evil is water? How does my army fit into the local customs? After the reconquista, how do you integrate with the people there? How can we win the support of the local people in the north? ”

Hua Qianhua looked at Fang Xu in a daze.

She's not a very simple girl, either.

After all, she was the daughter of the leader of the largest gang in Jiangnan.

She has been walking with flowers and books since she was a child.

She has participated in many major events of the Yunlong Gang since she was a child, and has witnessed many matters in officialdom, rivers and lakes, martial arts, and countless bloody scenes of life and death.

However, when she was with Fang Xu, she felt that Fang Xu's thinking was even higher.

It seems that those catchers, officials, prefects, and prefects are very few.

But what Fang Xu said was all about the court, the world, and the people's livelihood.

……

Fang Xu saw her staring at herself in a daze, so he gave a crab and put it in her bowl, and said with a smile: "Today, it is a perfect hometown dish that I have eaten when I returned to Jiangnan after more than ten years." ”

Hua Qianduo suddenly asked strangely: "Big brother, how could you have thought that the imperial court might transfer you to the north to quell the rebellion?" Aren't you a general prisoner of the imperial court now? ”

Fang Xu smiled: "Because I'm talented!" This general offense is temporary. Once the court is in trouble, the emperor will still send someone to find me back. What's more, I am so famous now, the emperor is a benevolent person, and he definitely doesn't want me to go to King Yan. What's more, after all, I am the first martial champion after the new emperor ascended the throne. I really want to commit treason to the enemy, how shameless the emperor is! ”

When he said this, his smile suddenly disappeared, and his tone was sad.

Through time and space, he couldn't serve the pain of his parents' old age, so that tears instantly blurred his eyes.

He raised his sleeves to wipe away his tears, and said in a choked voice: "My parents expect me to become a person who eats imperial food, but I still have to die in the rivers and lakes and live up to my parents' expectations!" ”

As he spoke, his eyes were red and filled with tears.

He, his lips squirmed, but he couldn't say any more.

Hua Qianduo hurriedly took out the brocade and stretched out her hand to wipe away Fang Xu's tears.

For a while, she didn't know how to comfort Fang Xu.

She didn't dare to ask where Fang Xu's parents were now?

She was afraid that Fang Xu's parents had died, if she asked the wrong question, wouldn't it hurt Fang Xu's heart even more?

With tears in her eyes, she looked at Fang Xu in a daze.

Every time Fang Xu dropped a tear, she wiped his tears once.

……

Fang Xu gently parted Hua Qianduo's hand, and said with emotion: "However, from now on, the entire martial arts will look at me differently. Perhaps, this can be regarded as a comfort to parents. ”

Hua Qianduo held the brocade handkerchief, wiped the tears on her face, and said with emotion: "Yes! You're okay, and you can still read your parents. But my parents are gone. My father died a terrible death, and if I had found an enemy, I would have slashed him with a thousand knives. ”

Fang Xu's heart was shocked, and he secretly said in his heart:

Also!

Fortunately, I am wise, and I and the flower thousand flowers will never be possible.

Someday, she'll do it to me!

……

Hua Qianhua said faintly: "It's the current court, too corrupt, from big officials to small officials, everything is greedy." In the past, how many people did my father ask to control the shipping in this area? How much did it cost? He gave gifts to every soldier in this area. Later, when the gang grew, my father only gave gifts to those who were above the seventh grade. If you want anything below the seventh grade, you can take it yourself, and take it at will, until they can't carry it or move it. Later, my father only gave gifts to He Baofu. Other big and small officials, if they want to come and get it, they will come, and if it is inconvenient to come and get it, my father will not pay much attention to them. In the past two years, my father has not given gifts to He Baofu anymore, but only dividends to He Baofu, which is calculated once a year at the end of the year. However, when He Baofu's key officials saw that my father's power was too great, they went to our rudder to get money and goods, and they didn't dare to come to the helm to get it, which didn't mean they didn't need it. However, it's okay that my dad doesn't need to be so annoying. Now, my father has passed away, and the helmsman has moved away. This will be another opportunity for He Baofu and his subordinates to make a fortune. In this area, there will be many gangs competing for control. Whoever wants to gain control will have to curry favor with He Baofu and his subordinates and officials. The competing gangs will have to pick up knives and guns to fight for territory and control of the waters, and they will slash and kill again, and there will be countless bloody scenes on both sides. Jiangnan martial arts will be surging again, countless families will be ruined, and wives will be separated. ”

Fang Xu said solemnly: "If I were to be the Imperial Doctor, it would be impossible for these masters to be so corrupt. However, as a courtier, he can't choose his own fate, he can only listen to the emperor. And the emperor does not necessarily listen to loyal ministers, many times, the emperor will only listen to traitors. Forget it, it's not up to us to decide what is going on in this world. Let's eat, today, let's have a light meal. ”
