Looking at Chen Daxi's serious expression, I was so shocked that the wine bowl in my hand almost fell to the ground. Brother Chen is not a joker. Since he said so, it must be true. He would never lie to me. Of course, it won't lie to our group of brothers who have played since childhood.

I came back to my senses. He asked softly: "Big brother, now is the time for you to worship the leader of the alliance of your eldest brother Zhang Lexing, why did you say this?" ”

"Brother, do you want to know what Brother Zhang is doing? It's a rebellion! If you rebel, you will not only kill your head, but you will also punish the nine clans! He was to be put to death, and all the flesh was cut off with a knife. Got it? Chen Daxi's eyes became terrifying.

"I know. But being chopped is better than starving to death. Following you to Anhui, how much meat did we poor brothers eat and how much wine did we poor brothers drink? How many good clothes did you wear? You see my sister-in-law used to be hungry, dark and thin. What now? Isn't it chubby for nothing? I said, "Besides, if we hadn't come out, we would have starved to death in Chenjiazhai by now!" Look at Chen Shukui in our village, was his family miserable when he starved to death? During this time, there was wine and meat every once in a while, and I haven't enjoyed this kind of life in my life, even the emperor's life is just like this! I, Luo Jie, have earned enough. Even now that he killed me, I don't regret it. ”

"Good brother. So you mean dare to rebel? Don't regret it? Chen Daxi continued to ask.

"No regrets! Brother Chen, I will do whatever you tell me to do! I replied firmly: "Of course, it would be better if I could also take in a group of younger brothers and get over the addiction of being the boss!" ”

"Okay! My good brother! I can also see that we can't stay here anymore, we have to go. Chen Daxi said: "Some time ago in Yongcheng County, you should also know. The official mansion was surrounded by us, and the defenders didn't dare to let it go. The officials negotiated with Zhang Laole and the others: If we ask for release, they will release them. We asked for money and food to reward the brothers, and the county did it immediately. The Qing Dynasty was like that. Too corrupt, too incompetent. As long as there are many people, then everyone can have a good future! ”

"Look at us now. Although he is a martial arts head coach, after all, he is subordinate to others, when will he come out? Brothers. Besides, Brother Zhang Laole was elected as the leader by the twisters of the surrounding provinces, do you think it's a good thing? Chen Daxi paused, and then said, "Who is Brother Zhang?" Thousands of acres of fertile land, hundreds of shops, and all kinds of underworld and white businesses are spread across several provinces. Even if you don't rebel, you won't be able to eat and drink for several lifetimes. Although there are some contradictions with other big families, who dares to provoke our big brother Zhang? It's really annoying, Brother Zhang's subordinates are not vegetarians. But that's no longer the case. The morality of the rivers and lakes may be used by others to elect the leader of the Twisting Army. Now it's okay, if you don't rebel, you have to rebel. ”

Chen Daxi took a sip of wine, and then said: "It is naturally good to be the leader of the alliance, it sounds very majestic, walking on the rivers and lakes, and those who didn't give face before have to give some face now." But the leader of the alliance is just a name. If you transfer or manage the twisters of other provinces, which of them do you think they will pay attention to Brother Zhang? Alas, this name is just a fiction, and it doesn't have so much power! Besides, when there is a benefit, everyone in the alliance should share it. But when it comes to difficulties, how many will come forward to help? Again, the gun shot the first bird, Brother Zhang is now famous, if Qing Yan is really looking for trouble, then naturally he will be the first to arrest Brother Zhang. Although it is said that the Qing army is all wine bags and rice bags, they can't stand up to the firearms of foreigners, I heard that the prince of the Taiping army was killed by artillery. Who are the Taipings? It's all the masters with their heads pinned to the waistband of their trousers! ”

"That big brother, I heard people say that if Chaoyan sees a group of people who are strong and can't suppress it, aren't they all Zhao'an? Do it for a big official. I said: "I've seen the Water Margin, aren't Song Jiang and them all official?" ”

"Silly! Since you have watched the Water Margin, you should also know the ending of Song Jiang. Didn't he end up being poisoned by the emperor? And Hua Rong, Li Kui, Wu Yong, and Lu Junyi are all dead? Chen Da said.

"Then Zhu Tong and Guan Sheng became officials, aren't they also good deaths?" I asked.

"People themselves are officers, okay, Zu Gen'er is a member of the official family. If you look at those individuals who run the rivers and lakes, how many of them have a good end? Either the black eats the black and dies after recruiting An, or the one who sees through the situation and runs away with the money. Chen Daxi said: "Our brother Zhang is the same now, it is difficult to ride a tiger." ”

"That big brother Zhang is so powerful, do you think it is possible to be the emperor in the future?" I asked.

"It's hard to tell. There is no emperor surnamed Zhang in China. Chen Daxi took another big sip of wine: "If Brother Zhang really becomes the emperor, I will at least be a prince!" Ha ha! ”

"Shall we go then? Stay here and wait! I said.

"Silly brother, you haven't understood it all night." Chen Daxi sighed: "What is your ideal?" Don't talk to me about eating meat and drinking, talk about the life you want and want to do the most. ”

"I'm not afraid of you, big brother, laughing. My dream is simple: I want money above all and I want to be a rich man. The family's big mansion has a lot of servants, maids, old mothers, and a lot of fields, and a lot of rent every year. As for me, I take a large group of dogs to molest women from good families every day. I said.

As soon as I finished speaking, I ate a heavy hairy chestnut on my head! My brother Chen, it's so heavy! "Little bastard, you're so bad! What is the difference between your ideals and those landlords, old money, corrupt officials, and bad people in Pingyu now? Chen Daxi scolded.

"Big brother, I was wrong. I'm kidding. I hurriedly admitted my mistake: "My ideal is actually to be a general, defending the poor from being bullied." Or do Bao Qingtian, set up a Kaifeng Mansion in Pingyu Street, and also find people like Mr. Gongsun Zhanzhao Dynasty Ma Han, Zhang Long, Zhao Hu to protect me and kill all the corrupt officials! ”

"That's pretty much it!" Chen Daxi smiled and said: "If you don't do a fist or a shed, do you have a chance to be recruited as an official?" Or maybe one has no subordinates, and the other has no military exploits, and Brother Zhang will become the emperor in the future, so it's not easy to find him to be an official, right? ”

"Yes, Brother Chen. At most, you are the head of the 800,000 forbidden army in the capital plus a foreign surname Wangye, and you may not have a fief yet. I'm a palace manager at most! I laughed.

"Humph! It's possible, Steward! And he is also the ~~~ chief eunuch of the Imperial Palace! Chen Daxi laughed and said, "Look at you, you are still molesting women from good families!" ”

"Haha! Brother Daxi, it turns out that you can also joke! It's the first time I've heard you joking in years! "I was amused too.

"No more nonsense. If you are willing to return to Pingyu, I will be relieved. I'll find Brother Zhang to resign tomorrow! Chen Daxi said: "Go to bed early, wait for my news tomorrow!" ”
