Fang ...... Filial piety...... ......Xiao Fan opened his mouth wide, looked at Fang Xiaoru who was lying on the ground and fainted with a shocked expression, and muttered to himself.

Cao Yi scratched his head and said curiously: "Who is Fang Xiaoru?" ”

Looking at Xiao Fan's shocked appearance, Cao Yi suddenly understood, a fierce light flashed in his eyes, and he said gloomily: "Could he be your enemy Brother Xiao?" Cao helped you kill him! It doesn't matter if he is really a minister of the court, let's kill him here and bury him, and no one will be able to get your evidence. ”

Xiao Fan came back to his senses, shook his head and said, "This person can't be killed, can't be killed......"

"Is he the king of heaven? Why can't you kill it? Cao Yi sneered.

Xiao Fan looked at him very seriously and said, "He is a ruthless person, and you and I are not enough for him to be ruthless...... For such a ruthless person, we have to be respectful. ”

Cao Yi looked confused: "............"

Such a dry, thin and sour person, put aside Cao Yi's skills, and can beat him half of his body with one punch, where is he ruthless?

Xiao Fan looked at Fang Xiaoru who fainted with reverence, and said lightly: "...... If the enemy kills your entire family in front of you, can you still compose poems while watching your loved ones die under the butcher's knife? ”

Cao Yi's face twitched violently a few times, the fierceness in his eyes gradually darkened, and he said in surprise: "How is this possible?" Who is so ruthless? ”

Xiao Fan smiled at Fang Xiaoru Nunu and said, "He has such a ruthless ......"

Cao Yi wiped his sweat and looked at Fang Xiaoru's gaze full of awe.

Fang Xiaoru, the first great Confucian in the early Ming Dynasty, was praised by the enemy Yao Guangxiao as "reading seeds", was called "Mr. Zhengxue" by the King of Shu, and was placed by Zhu Yuanzhang on a generation of famous ministers with high hopes for the humerus stock, he studied under Song Lian, full of learning and talent, many masterpieces have been handed down, he is loyal to the Dharma and protective, and he has become a scholar, in the face of Yan Rebellion Butcher's knife as if he were at home, unyielding in resistance, he is indifferent and ruthless, and his relatives and friends of the ten clans are in front of him and his face does not change, he is calm and calm, and he is still in the mood to make a desperate poem on the execution ground to complete its righteousness...... Xiao Fan looked at the unconscious Fang Xiaoru, his eyes were complicated and difficult to understand, how should he evaluate this righteous but reckless Confucian? Bloody loyalists? Or is it a cold-blooded beast?

That's it, these should be left to future generations to comment, it is now the thirty-first year of Hongwu, the trajectory of history has deviated, perhaps, all this will not happen again, the brilliant characters will not be brilliant, the tragedy that should happen will not happen, in the future, is moving towards a new road that even Xiao Fan himself does not know, on this new road, Fang Xiaoru is just Fang Xiaoru, he is the great Confucian of the world, the important minister who assisted Zhu Yunwen, and the mainstay of the implementation of the Jianwen New Deal, that's all.

"Wake him up." Xiao Fan lightly instructed the Jinyi lieutenant on the side.

The lieutenant squatted down, stretched out his hand and pinched Fang Xiaoru's middle man, and soon, the unconscious Fang Xiaoru woke up slowly.

Before his eyes opened, Fang Xiaoru moaned weakly: "Water ......"

"Give him water, take small sips."

Fang Xiaoru, who had drunk a few sips of water, recovered a little spirit, raised his eyes and looked at Xiao Fan pitifully, and said, "Hurry up...... Tell the doctor to cure me, I'm ...... I'm dying......"

Xiao Fan smiled and said, "Lord Fang, you don't need to call a doctor for this disease, I can help you treat it." ”

Saying that, Xiao Fan turned around and ordered: "Come on, go and ask someone to boil some porridge, and bring it quickly." ”

It didn't take long for the kitchen to bring hot porridge, the captain squatted down, and slowly fed Fang Xiaoru with a silver spoon, Fang Xiaoru was impatient, didn't care about the porridge, and drank a whole bowl of porridge with grinning teeth. After drinking, Fang Xiaoru looked up at Xiao Fan, and said in a hoarse voice: "...... I'm starving to death, so get me another bowl. ”

Xiao Fan smiled: "It's better to wait before eating, I've been hungry for so long, eating too much will hurt my stomach." ”

Fang Xiaoru's spirit was obviously much better, and when he heard this, he snorted heavily and said angrily: "You care about me!" The old man wants to eat! ”

Xiao Fan pursed his lips, turned his head to Cao Yi and said, "Brother Cao, have you found this person's ruthlessness?" ”

Cao Yi pouted as Xiao Fan and snorted, "Where is he ruthless?" ”

Xiao Fan had a smile in his eyes and said leisurely: "My mouth has been blocked by stinky socks for two days, and I still eat so heartily, can you do it?" ”

Cao Yi's eyes were suddenly full of respect when he looked at Fang Xiaoru, and he sighed sincerely: "Lord Fang is really a god, he is really ruthless!" I can't. ”

Fang Xiaoru's face turned black, then slowly turned green, and finally couldn't help it, and he vomited in the dark.

........................ "Are you really Fang Xiaoru?" Xiao Fan stared at him with interest, his dark eyes sparkling.

Fang Xiaoru regained his spirits, and nodded with an elegant beard: "Yes." ”

"You are Fang Xiaoru, who is known as a generation of Confucianism?"

"Yes, yes."

"You are Fang Xiaoru, who was respected by the King of Shu as Mr. Zhengxue?"

"Yes, yes."

"You are Fang Xiaoru who was punished by King Yan of the Ten Clans?"

"Ran......" Fang Xiaoru paused, and then became furious: "Fart!" You've just been condemned to the Ten Clans! Your whole family has been punished by the Ten Tribes......"

Xiao Fan patted him on the shoulder sympathetically, and said very sincerely: "If I don't appear, you will be punished by the Ten Clans in a few years, really, I don't lie to you." ”

"The thief dares to curse the old man! I'm fighting with you! ”

Bang!

Fang Xiaoru, who was dancing with teeth and claws, was stretched out by Cao Yi, and his head was pressed against the table.

"Why are you so pedantic and stubborn? Lord Xiao said that you will be punished by the Ten Clans, then you will definitely be punished by the Ten Clans, when did he tell a lie? Why don't you want to admit it? ”

Fang Xiaoru's head was pressed, and tears were in his eyes: "............"

Xiao Fan couldn't bear to say: "Forget it, people don't know and are not ashamed, and they are not gentlemen." People don't want to admit it, so let's not force ......."

Cao Yi let go of Fang Xiaoru at this time, then glared at him fiercely and scolded: "Dead and poor!" It's really sensible! ”

Fang Xiaoru was inexplicably sad and indignant, and tears welled up: "...... I kind of know how unreasonable Jinyiwei is! ”

Xiao Fan was stunned and asked Cao Yi: "Are we very unreasonable?" ”

"No, we are more reasonable than Dali Temple......

West of Xuzhou City, Dapeng Town.

Because Peng Zu offered pheasant soup to cure the disease of Emperor Yao in ancient times, Emperor Yao felt his kindness, so he gave the Xuzhou area to Peng Zu, Peng Zu thus established the country of Da Peng, and Da Peng Town was named after it.

There is Peng Zu Temple built in Dapeng Town, covers an area of more than 100 zhang, this temple is built by the Eastern Han Dynasty, destroyed in the war in the later dynasties, rebuilt after the founding of the country in the early Ming Dynasty.

The early morning sun obliquely shines on the vicissitudes of mottled temple walls, the morning breeze of midsummer slowly blows the slightest coolness, the incense in the temple is not vigorous, a few people come and go in a hurry, incense, kowtow, make a wish, the front of the wide main hall is quite calm and silent.

Under the sun, two slender figures slowly walked into the temple. Although the two of them were dressed in ordinary men's coarse cloth clothes, they looked no different from the people of Shengdou, but their slender and graceful figures, extremely beautiful and charming manners, and their delicate faces could not hide their female identities.

As soon as the two stepped into the temple, more than a dozen men dressed in short shirts appeared behind them, seemingly pilgrims, but faintly kept a distance from the two women.

The two daughters seem to be unconscious, both walk into the temple, see that the front is an imitation Han style three-open hall, the hall is about four zhang high, the middle is enshrined with the golden statue of Peng Zu, there is an ancient inscription on the left side of the hall, its text says: "The western suburbs of Xuzhou, the big Peng Shanyin, there is water in ancient times, surging eastward. Between the mountains and rivers, there is a village of Dapeng, which is the hometown of Tao Tang Dapeng. ”

The second daughter's willow eyebrows frowned slightly, and there seemed to be deep thoughts hidden between her eyebrows.

After walking a few steps towards the majestic main hall, a woman suddenly turned her head uneasily and said, "Ying'er, I'm ...... I always feel uneasy, Ying'er, maybe he is in a hurry at the moment, maybe he has sent a brocade-clothed guard to look for our traces, I ...... I want to go back to Beijing......"

Another woman chuckled and said, "County Lord, since you have already come out, why rush back?" Is it true that only we women are afraid of men in this world? Don't men be afraid of women once? Didn't you say you wanted to travel all over the world? Now that we have come out, if you return to Beijing, you may never have a chance to fulfill your wish in this life. ”

The woman sighed faintly, opened her mouth but didn't know what to say, so she had to purse her lips and remain silent.

After entering the hall, the two took incense and made offerings, and then bowed to the statue of Peng Zu.

"I wish to live a long life and live 800 years like Peng Zu......" A woman clasped her hands together, closed her eyes and muttered a wish.

"Poof!"

The woman next to her laughed out loud and teased softly: "County Lord, your father-in-law lives to be eight hundred years old, which is rare in the world, if you can't live that long at that time, wouldn't you have to go before him?" ”

The person who made the wish was the county lord of Jiangdu, who smiled shyly when he heard this, and then sighed quietly: "Ying'er, if you love a man very much, you will understand why I made such a wish, in the heart of my lover, I hope that everything is good for him, everything goes smoothly, no illness and no disaster, I can't wait to transfer all the good luck and good fortune of my life to him, stay with you, and live with you, until one day we are all old, after enjoying a lifetime of favor, I will leave him first, so as not to let me bear the grief of losing my lover alone, It's also the only selfish thing that people who love each other do......"

Chen Ying'er's flower-like pretty face instantly dimmed, staring blankly at the tall Peng Zujin statue in the hall, a look of confusion appeared in her eyes, and her voice was as unpredictable as floating in the distant mist.

"County Lord, you think too much about the love between men and women in the world, too noble, I ...... Not as good as you. I am selfish, love a person, I should always guard him, be with him every day, I will not allow him to bear me, of course, I will not bear him, as long as he has me in his heart, I am willing to give everything for him, including life and dignity, if he loses me, then he is my life and death enemy, I swear to him not to stand on each other, never to die! ”

Jiang Du seemed to be frightened by Chen Ying'er's words, she covered her mouth and didn't say a word for a long time, after a while, she suddenly smiled lightly and said: "Ying'er, you are ruthless, but I know that you are not such a person, in front of the man you love, you must be the same as me, how can you not hurt him with all your heart, right?" ”

Chen Ying'er gradually relaxed with a bit of resentment, and finally sighed gloomily, and said quietly: "Yes, maybe I really can't be ruthless, if I can really be ruthless, you, me, and you are the same, the fate of the three of us will be different......"

Jiang Du's coquettish smile gradually froze, her eyes widened in surprise, and said, "Ying'er, you...... What did you just say? The three of us? And my father-in-law? What do you mean? You...... Do you know my father-in-law Xiao Fan? ”

Chen Ying'er was startled, knowing that she had lost her words, but her words had already come out, and she had no time to hide it.

Jiang Dumei's eyes stared at her, and this time she used an affirmative sentence: "Ying'er, you know my father-in-law, you have known each other for a long time." ”

Chen Ying'er trembled, her eyes closed, and sad tears rolled down.

"Yes, county lord, forgive me for hiding from you for so long, I really have no choice, I ...... I am the former fiancée of your father-in-law Xiao Fan...... Jiangpu Chen Yinger. ”

In the city of Xuzhou, the prefect Liu Zhifu is in the bedroom.

Feng Shui rotates, and now it's time for Fang Xiaoru to ask Xiao Fan.

"You are the minister of the Son of Heaven who ordered him to patrol the north?" Fang Xiaoru stroked his black beard, revealing a righteous anger between his eyebrows.

"Exactly." Xiao Fan replied with a smile.

"You are Xiao Fan? Jin Yiwei commanded Xiao Fan? ”

"Exactly."

Fang Xiaoru closed his eyes and muttered: "The old man has heard your name when he was far away in Bashu, Lord Xiao, the old man has not entered Beijing for a long time, and he doesn't know about the court, but he has a few words to ask, the old man's surname is upright, and he can't speak to him, and I hope to forgive me." ”

Xiao Fan said with a smile: "Lord Mu Fang has been famous for a long time, and Lord Fang can say it bluntly if he has something to say." ”

Fang Xiaoru thought for a long time, as if he was organizing the language, for a long time, and then said leisurely: "I heard that there is now a party annihilation in the court, among which you Lord Xiao is the leader, you are colluding, causing chaos in the dynasty, bewitching the young emperor, and dictatorship without authority, Lord Xiao, is this really the case?" ”

Xiao Fan smiled faintly: "These words must have been told to you by Huang Zicheng and his Qingliu ministers, right?" - What is loyalty? What is annihilation? Could it be that those words spoken by Qingliu are the most righteous way, and if you don't listen to them, you will become a vassal? Is it up to them to define loyalty and annihilation? They say I'm a Destroyer, so I'm definitely a Destroyer? Lord Fang, I don't know what you think of me, to be honest, I don't care what you think of me, I'm Xiao someone who lives only for himself in this life, and the evaluation of others, no matter how high or low I praise or discredit, I laughed to myself, Lord Fang, this is my answer, I don't know if Lord Fang is satisfied? ”

Fang Xiaoru frowned slightly, then slowly unfolded it again, and chuckled: "Regardless of whether Lord Xiao is a minister or not, at least your words are quite frank, but...... Lord Xiao, now the court is saying that your flattering words are very loud, and the old man has been deafening since he was in Bashu......"

Xiao Fan smiled lightly: "Don't worry, Lord Fang, now the voice scolding me is much quieter, almost negligible......"

Fang Xiaoru was stunned and said, "Oh? Could it be that the ministers of the DPRK and China have changed their impression of you? ”

"No, because I drove Huang Zicheng away a few days ago, I scolded me quietly......"

"You ......" Fang Xiaoru was angry.

After being silent for a long time, Fang Xiaoru suddenly opened his eyes, and said with a straight face: "Lord Xiao, the old man is not a stupid person who listens to and believes partially, you are loyal or annihilated, the old man's eyes will see clearly, and the score is exactly ......."

Saying that, Fang Xiaoru suddenly stood up, a pair of blurred eyes stared at Cao Yi beside Xiao Fan, he took a step forward and walked in front of Cao Yi, raised his hand to poke Cao Yi's chest, and said loudly while poking: "Lord Xiao, the old man is not blind with this pair of tricks, I will keep an eye on you, if I find out that you are really a gangster, the old man will not hesitate to admonish each other with death, and he will not persuade the Son of Heaven to kill you!" ”

Cao Yi was stunned: "............"

Xiao Fan's head was full of black lines: "Master Fang......"

"Don't think that you can do whatever you want with the power of Jinyiwei, the power is granted by the Son of Heaven, and everything you have is given by the Son of Heaven......"

"Lord Fang......"

Fang Xiaoru turned his head impatiently and looked around: "What's the matter?" Who called me? ”

"Lord Fang...... You, are your eyes okay? ”

"Nonsense! The old man is clear-eyed, and his eyes are like torches, what can he do? ”

Xiao Fan stretched out a finger and shook it in front of his eyes: "Lord Fang, how much is this?" ”

"Two."

Stretch out another one: "How many is this?" ”

"Humph! When am I a three-year-old? It's four! ”

It is confirmed that the big gossip that has never been recorded in the history books: Fang Xiaoru is a super myopic ......"...... The old man told you that since ancient times, the court has been upright, if you are really a annihilator, there will always be someone who stands up, the Ming Dynasty will not die, and the loyal ministers will not die! The old man's tricks are bright and sharp......"

Xiao Fan and Cao Yi looked at each other...... Xiao Fan smiled dryly: "Ah, let's change the topic......"

Cao Yi hurriedly agreed: "Okay, okay, change the topic......"

Fang Xiaoru had no choice but to shut up and glared at Xiao Fan with a snort.

Xiao Fan rolled his eyes and said, "Lord Fang, Xia Guan was ordered by the emperor to patrol the north and bid farewell to the ministers of the court and the central government outside the city, why did you appear there?" ”

Fang Xiaoru's face suddenly changed when he heard this, his dark face gradually turned blue, and his old face was longer than a donkey's face.

Cao Yi hurriedly stabbed Xiao Fan and complained in a low voice: "...... You're not going to open a pot. ”

New hatred and old hatred surged into his heart, Fang Xiaoru was angry, and slammed the table and said loudly: "How can I appear there?" Can't I show up there? Everyone can go on the official road, you Xiao Fan is so domineering, whoever goes, you will arrest whom? Lang Lang Qiankun, is there any royal law? ”

Patting his thigh heavily, Fang Xiaoru had tears in his eyes, and said sadly: "Think about it, think about it, I was ordered to leave Shu, return to Beijing alone, sit in a carriage, and watch the lively ......"

After a pause, Fang Xiaoru looked up to the sky and roared, "...... Suddenly robbed by officers and soldiers! ”

Xiao Fan and Cao Yi wiped their sweat with their eyebrows: "............"

His fingers trembled and pointed at Xiao Fan: "You! You have to use the old man to block the cold arrow of King Yan! ”

He pointed at Cao Yi again: "You! You're going to cut off the old man's head and sacrifice the flag! ”

Slamming the table hard, Fang Xiaoru burst into tears, and couldn't help himself with grief and indignation: "Are you still human?" …… Monkey! ”

The two monkeys bowed their heads, their faces as ashamed as monkey butts: "............"
