Chapter 239: Bitter Words and Comfort
Qi Yanming's face covered with horizontal flesh became gloomy in an instant, and his appearance looked a little terrifying. glared at Qi Yanwu fiercely, and said coldly, "Xiao Wu, you haven't been by your brother's side all these years, can't you even trust your brother?"
My brother told you the truth, my brother has been in the Bazhou area all these years, and my brother has made a lot of heroes. Such as Liu Liu, Liu Qi brothers, Yang Hu and others, are all heroes on the rivers and lakes, acting chivalrous and righteous, benefiting one party.
They robbed the rich and gave to the poor, and the people loved them. My brother and they met, which can be regarded as my brother's luck, my brother has a body of martial arts, and he can be regarded as being in the rivers and lakes, happy and hateful, so happy.
Although we are called 'ringing horse thieves' by the government, we have never harmed the people. Hum! In this year, officials colluded, Tang stole the law, defrauded the people, and made the people's livelihood miserable. Is it wrong for my brother to do something for the people with them?
My brother came to Baoding Mansion this time on the orders of Brother Liu's sixth brother to hunt down and kill an enemy. Just now, in a narrow alley of the Erdao Bridge, I finally met the enemy. How could his brother let him go, and a vicious fight ensued.
The blood stains on my brother's shirt are naturally from the enemy's family, but, alas! Although he was slashed in the back, he was finally allowed to escape! ”
After his words were finished, Zhou Zhi chuckled in his heart, and said secretly, the wheel of history is rolling forward, and it has not deviated from the track after all. Qi Yanming really walked with Liu Liu, Liu Qi, Yang Hu and others, and it seemed that the peasant uprising in the fifth year of Zhengde was inevitable.
From a historical point of view, although the peasant uprising of Liu Liu and Liu Qi seemed to be righteous, they also did some good things for the people at first. But the Ming Dynasty's anger has not been exhausted, and the people have not yet reached the point where they can never live that life, and their uprising has become even more difficult and displaced by the troubled people. They even killed a lot of innocent people.
Therefore, the uprising of Liu Liu and Liu Qi was not so much an uprising as a rebellion and rebellion against the laws of history.
Zhou Zhi frowned slightly, glanced at Qi Yanming, and fell into deep thought. Although Zhou Zhi had a lot of thoughts in his heart, he turned over the river and the sea, but there was no trace of expression on his face, so that when Qi Yanwu's eyes looked at him, Zhou Zhi was still silent.
Qi Yanwu's chest was rising and falling violently, and after listening to his brother Qi Yanming's words just now, he finally understood why Zhou Zhi asked him to write a contract statement and hand it over to Ouyang Zheng, the chief secretary of Qingdu County. It turned out that Zhou Zhi's brother had already expected that his brother Qi Yanming would be a bandit in the future, a horse thief, and a key criminal to be pursued by the government.
Brother Zhou Zhi is a person who was born to know, and it is natural that he can expect it.
For nearly two years, Qi Yanwu has been living a dull but happy life in the Zhou family. Although the family can't say big fish and meat every day, they can also eat and dress warmly. So what he saw was the Zhou family and the scenes around the Zhou family, as for what the people in the world were like, Qi Yanwu didn't have such a big vision, so naturally he didn't care at all.
After a long time, Qi Yanwu suddenly roared, "You really became a bandit, hum!" I don't have your brother, you get out of here! ”
"What? Xiao Wu, are you talking to your brother? Qi Yanming shouted angrily, and before the words fell, a slap slapped on Qi Yanwu's little face.
Qi Yanwu's fair face suddenly showed clear blood marks.
"You hit me!" Qi Yanwu immediately turned his fist and headed towards Qi Yanwu's chest.
Because the two brothers were not speculative, they were very excited when they first met, but at this time they had a big fight.
This is in the inn, and in front of Zhou Zhi, how can Zhou Zhi let them fight. Zhou Zhi's face sank, and he said sharply, "Xiao Wu, don't do it!" ”
In Qi Yanwu's impression, Brother Zhou Zhi spoke to him as if he had never spoken in such a tone. He listened to Zhou Zhi's words the most, and admired Zhou Zhi very much. Qi Yanwu turned his head to take a look, and immediately retreated cowardly.
However, his two tiger eyes emitted two cold rays, and he kept staring at Qi Yanming tightly, eager to bite Qi Yanming.
Zhou Zhi's expression was indifferent, and he arched his hand towards Qi Yanming and said, "Qi Yanming, I understood what you said just now, it stands to reason that I shouldn't take care of your affairs, and I am not qualified to take care of your affairs." But since you are my brother Xiao Wu, I still have a few words to persuade you.
At this time, the Great Tomorrow was the reign of Emperor Hongzhi, and although there were still many unsatisfactory places, it seemed that it was still peaceful and prosperous on the whole. The emperor is a generation of Ming monarchs, and there are also cabinet members such as Xu Pu, the first assistant of the cabinet, as well as Li Dongyang, Liu Jian, Xie Qian and other cabinet members, and the world is developing in the best direction. So at this time, it is not possible to talk about the emperor being deaf and the people are miserable. You can't generalize.
People in the rivers and lakes are naturally involuntarily, but they must have a heart, not hurt the innocent, and have the people in their hearts. In my opinion, you have the ability to do something, you should not be a bandit, but you should do something for the people and the government. The so-called learn literary and martial arts, and sell the goods to the emperor's family. At this time, it is the time for the country to employ people, if you do things for the government, you will definitely be reused in the future, and you will have a bright future.
Taking a step back, you don't want to do things for the government, but what's wrong with being honest, marrying a wife and having children in a down-to-earth manner, and living your own good life!
Qi Yanming, you and I don't know each other, but this is my heartfelt words, people must take the right path, and they must not go astray! ”
From the bottom of his heart, Qi Yanming was grateful to Zhou Zhi for taking in Qi Yanwu, and his impression of Zhou Zhi was really good. But at this time, hearing Zhou Zhi speak like this, his pair of ringed eyes immediately glared at Zhou Zhi. Said coldly, "Humph! I want you to take care of my affairs, don't think that you saved my little brother's life, and you can point fingers at me if you take in my little brother.
What I look down on the most is that you are superficial scholars, who look dignified, but are really dirty inside! ”
Zhou Zhi was originally persuaded by Qi Yanming's kind words, but who would have thought that he would be disrespectful by him, and Zhou Zhi was very annoyed for a while.
Qi Yanwu couldn't listen to it anymore, he said to Zhou Zhi, "Brother Zhou Zhi, don't pay attention to him, such a person should be cleaned up." ”
After that, he didn't hesitate at all, picked up his fists and hit Qi Yanming.
Although Qi Yanming was burly, his actions were extremely neat, dodging, his eyes were spewing fire, and he said, "Xiao Wu, do you want to help outsiders beat your brother?" I really don't know what ** soup he poured you, Xiao Wu, you still can't stop! ”
Where would Qi Yanwu listen to his words, and at this time, he waved the pair of small fists more violently. Qi Yanming had no choice but to fight back in the end.
However, he cared about brotherhood after all, but he did not be ruthless to Qi Yanwu. Qi Yanming said while fighting, "Xiao Wu, you better go with your brother, you will not have good results if you follow such a scholar who does not distinguish between good and bad." ”
