At the beginning of the lamp, in the backyard of the Sima family, Zhuge Xuan was already drinking with the Sima family, the two had known each other since childhood, they were both rivals and acquaintances, and the relationship was not enough for outsiders, the two were originally handsome figures in their respective families, but unfortunately their heads had been pressed by a group of family elders, until Cao Anmin ascended the throne and borrowed Li Ang's strange soldiers to force those old men to give way in one fell swoop, so that the two of them could take charge of the family.

"Forty percent of the profits, but it's not a lion's big mouth." Listening to what Zhuge Xuan said, Sima You laughed and said to his old friend beside him, "Even your daughter is willing to marry his subordinates, so you are so optimistic about his future achievements?" ”

"Regardless of him, that young man named Cui Hao is also a good match for Yue'er." Zhuge Xuan looked at the wine glass in his hand, "And he, don't you think he is very similar to Xiahou Tang?" The same amazing talent, the same cold and quiet, the same valued by the emperor. ”

Listening to Zhuge Xuan's self-questioning and self-answering, Sima You was stunned, and then the figure in his heart that had been forgotten for many years reappeared in his heart, he sighed deeply and said, "Xiahou Tang is indeed the first person in our era, if it weren't for that incident, maybe he would have become a prince and crushed the Roman Huns, it's a pity, it's a pity!" ”

"Xiahou Tang is tired of his family background, the first emperor at that time would not allow the Xiahou family to be one step closer, Cao Mingde was just a knife in the hands of the first emperor at that time." Regarding what happened in the palace half a year ago, the head of a family like Zhuge Xuan naturally knew the inside story, shook his head, Zhuge Xuan drank the wine in the cup, and said to Li Ang, "But he is different." There is no root and no bottom, even if he goes to build a country thousands of miles away and becomes a prince, he will not have any threat to Chang'an, but can contain Rome and the Xiongnu for Daqin, and His Majesty will fully support him at that time. ”

"What you said is not bad, but it is a bit arbitrary after all." Look at the light in your friend's eyes (mobile AP,, the fastest update). Sima You didn't agree with him, "There are no absolutes in the world, you still have to plan carefully, don't lose your wife and lose your troops when the time comes." ”

Listening to what Sima You said, Zhuge Xuan's brows furrowed, he looked at his friend who seemed to know something, and asked. "What exactly do you want to say, doesn't anyone want him to go to Hercy?" Zhuge Xuan's voice was deep, obviously a little concerned about this matter.

"Most of the people in his house are that kind of people, that is, foreigners who have joined the Han nationality, although these people have long been no different from the Han people, but in the eyes of some people, they have always been barbarians and cannot be trusted." Sima You saw his friends inquiring, but he said something that Zhuge Xuan and Li Ang didn't pay attention to. Among the people he reused, there are many such people, and if the country is founded in the future, won't those people become ministers and ministers. Do you say some people would tolerate such a thing? ”

"Those are just clowns who can't get on the stage, hasn't Your Majesty also suppressed them quite harshly recently?" Zhuge Xuan thought of those extreme people, his tone was quite disdainful, at present, the Han foreigners in the Great Qin Land are just different in appearance from the Han people, and other things such as habits, language, and culture have long been assimilated by the Han people, and they hate the barbarians who do not obey the king of the Great Qin more than the ordinary Han people, and they want to say loyalty. They are no worse than the real Han Chinese.

"It is precisely because His Majesty suppresses him very strictly that they hate him even more, thinking that he has bewitched His Majesty." looked at Zhuge Xuan. Sima You shook his head and said, "You also know that although Confucianism has stepped down, but in the thirty years they have been in power, it is impossible for those petty officials to clean up all at once. ”

"Is there such a thing?" Zhuge Xuan was shocked when he heard this, his brows furrowed, and he said to Sima You after a while, "It looks like I'm going to have a pain in with him about this matter." ”

"To be honest, I don't want to see those people make a big deal, and it's best to have him do it." Sima You told Zhuge Xuan what he knew, he had his own calculations, and he didn't want those extreme people to do something, but they were old families, if they were for those Han foreigners, they would inevitably be criticized, but Li Ang was different, he had no foundation in Chang'an, and he was not afraid of offending people, and more importantly, his prestige in the army was already very high, and he could suppress those impulsive lower-level officers and soldiers, and would not let them be instigated to deal with him.

Zhuge Xuan and Sima You decided on some things again, and left in a hurry, in fact, the relationship between the high-ranking families of Great Qin is complicated, and they often marry each other, their relationship is definitely much closer than on the surface, in the eyes of the world, their struggle is just the appearance they made after the compromise, but usually these compromises are only known to the high-ranking and powerful people of the family, and others will be kept in the dark.

Miss Zhuge is like this, she thought that she had relied on her own strength to get sixty percent of the benefits of the Chang'an gambling stall from the Sima family, but she didn't know that this amount was set by his father and the head of the Sima family last night. After Miss Zhuge left, Sima You laughed with the son beside him, "My old friend gave birth to a good daughter, but it's a pity that it's not a son, otherwise, sooner or later, the Zhuge family will be in charge of her." ”

"Does the father think that his son is inferior to Uncle Zhuge 's daughter?" Sima You's eldest son, Sima Fang, saw his father praising Miss Zhuge in front of him, and couldn't help frowning, it was true that in the verbal confrontation just now, he fell behind, but he didn't think that he was worse than Miss Zhuge just now, just now he disdained to have a verbal dispute with women.

"Your qualifications are outstanding in your life." Looking at his son who was a little unconvinced, Sima You smiled and said with a smile, and then when his son's face showed some joy, the words suddenly changed, "It's just that if you don't change your proud temperament, it will be difficult to become a big thing after all, and your father will never hand over the Sima family to you in the future, so you have to change this problem well." ”

Listening to his father's suddenly changed words, although Sima Fang was still a little unconvinced in his heart, he still nodded honestly. Seeing that his mouth was wrong, Sima You didn't bother to say anything,

If the son did not suffer some hardship, he would not understand. Just like his youth

Miss Zhuge found Cui Hao again, to Cui Hao's surprise, he could clearly feel that Miss Zhuge had changed and became very feminine, even if he was conceited, he was still amazed by Miss Zhuge . "What the eldest lady said, I will tell my lord, and Cui thanked the eldest lady first." After listening to the matter, Cui Hao bowed to Miss Zhuge and found an excuse to flee.

"Hmph. You can't escape the palm of my mother's hand. Looking at Cui Hao's figure leaving in a hurry, Miss Zhuge who had been with Feng Siniang for a long time learned Feng Siniang's sentence of 'old lady' when Li Ang was away, and she learned it in a good way and had a charm of her own. Miss Zhuge now regards Li Ang and his family as her own family, and when she gets along with Feng Siniang and Lin Fengshuang, she doesn't have that calculating heart. made Feng Siniang and Lin Fengshuang regard her as real sisters, and they got along with her better.

In the study, Feng Siniang and Lin Fengshuang were lying in the recliner that Li Ang had custom-made, looking at Li Ang, who was peeling pears for them, their eyes were full of smiles, and the two were laughing while talking about Cui Hao and Miss Zhuge , next to them were Huo Xiaoyu and Qingzhi who covered their mouths and snickered.

"I think Sister Zhuge is really moved by the black fox in our family, but you didn't see the emotional look when she asked us about Cui Hao's kid. Tsk, that's wonderful. ”

"I didn't expect you to be a matchmaker." Li Ang said with a smile, and sent the peeled, cored, and sliced pears in his hand to Feng Siniang and Lin Fengshuang's mouths and said, "But I can kidnap a character like Miss Zhuge to our house." It's pretty good, too. ”

"What, husband, are you going to cooperate with the Zhuge family?" Lin Fengshuang looked at Li Ang and asked, she knew that many families in Chang'an now had the intention of wooing Li Ang, but Li Ang had not decided who to cooperate with so far.

"If you can get married, you might as well give it a try." Li Ang thought for a while and replied, he really needs help, the orphans adopted by the family, in addition to the people who will become officers in the future, he also needs some specialized talents. And the cultivation of these professionals can not only be done with money, without the help of the family. It was difficult for him to let his family master some of Daqin's secret crafts.

"I always feel that something is wrong, looking at the situation of Zhuge Meizi, it seems that her family is not against it, I remember that they are such a high-ranking family, and they should be the most important to the door." Feng Siniang, who was eating the pear on the side, said suddenly, and then she laughed again, "Could it be that the Zhuge family wants our black fox to be the son-in-law of the inverted door?" ”

Listening to Feng Siniang's words, Li Ang and Lin Fengshuang both frowned at the same time, since they used Cui Hao's idea of earning into Miss Zhuge , it was difficult to guarantee that the Zhuge family did not mean to dig their corners, but this idea just turned in their minds and disappeared without a trace, because they really couldn't think of a reason why the Zhuge family would use Miss Zhuge to dig Cui Hao, although Cui Hao was a talent, it was not worth the Zhuge family to do this.

"Would you like to eat more?" Seeing that Feng Siniang and Lin Fengshuang had finished eating the pears they had peeled, Li Ang picked up the knife again and asked with a smile at the two. At this moment, Cui Hao knocked on the door outside, "Master, I have something to tell you." ”

"You talk, Sister Lin and I happen to be a little tired." Seeing Cui Hao coming in, Feng Siniang smiled at Li Ang, and then wanted to get up with Lin Fengshuang, seeing that they were going to get up, Li Ang hurriedly supported them with Qingzhi and Huo Xiaoyu.

When he saw Feng Siniang and Lin Fengshuang and they were far away, Li Ang returned to the study, closed the door, looked at Cui Hao, who had a somewhat cold face, and asked, "What's wrong?" In the past few days with Cui Hao, he has never seen Cui Hao look so serious.

Cui Hao said the hint from the Sima family that Miss Zhuge conveyed to him, and his voice was low, "Master, if you don't teach those people a lesson, I'm afraid they will really do something." ”

"What can they do is nothing more than assassination." Thinking of those fanatical extremists, a sneer appeared on Leon's cold face, he looked down on these people who could only shout and shout, in fact, if they really dared to do such a thing as assassinating him, he would still admire them, but according to him, these people would never dare to assassinate him.

"The master is not afraid of them, and with the prestige of the master, they may not dare to come, but the young lady and the people in the village may not dare to move." Cui Hao's voice was still low, but there was a faint killing intent.

Hearing Cui Hao talk about Feng Siniang, Lin Fengshuang, Qingzhi and those orphans in Zhuangzi, Li Ang's calm eyes suddenly flashed with murderous intentions, and then he seemed to think of something, and then sneered, "Well, since they don't want to be evildoers, then I'll take care of them for them." ”

Cui Hao looked at the sneering Li Ang, knowing that he had guessed the thoughts of those families, so he didn't say anything anymore, just waiting for Li Ang's order, he knew that with Li Ang's style of acting, he would definitely not move, and if he moved, he would never leave any trouble.

"You let Cunzhi and Yan Zong come to see me." Li Ang looked at Cui Hao, his face had returned to his usual calmness, and he couldn't see any expression.

"Yes, sir." Cui Hao lowered his head and walked out of the study, he knew that there were many people in Chang'an City who were afraid that there would be many people who fell to the ground, but it was no wonder that they were ruthless, if they just complained in private, but to form a force and touch the interests of the powerful, then there was only a dead end, those people were wrong in not recognizing the situation, Cui Hao didn't think that the leaders of the so-called extremists were the same as the group of people who were instigated under them, for them, what they were advocating' The extreme concept is just a card in their hands, a card used to win fame and fortune, you must know that Daqin has always been extremely strict with Han foreigners, without any preferential treatment, but even so they still have to engage in those extreme things to gain fame and fortune for themselves, it can only be said that their hearts are very dark and dirty, but unfortunately those who are bewitched by them are pitiful and completely kept in the dark.
