NO.258 THE FUTURE OF THE LIU CLAN
Regardless of the conspiracy, the plotter should have the strength to match, Liu Biao and Liu Zhang, now they have no qualifications to call Pang Shanmin, Pang Shanmin came to visit Liu Biao, not to demonstrate in front of the two, but to let the Liu clan know that what they have now, in addition to the extravagant life of the clan, other privileges are no different from ordinary families, if the descendants of the Liu family want to return to the court, they also need to compete with the children of the family and the poor family.
After Pang Shanmin and Liu Biao discussed, Liu Biao also knew that in the future, Liu Qi would have less authority above the court, and Liu Qi was now in a high position, just because of his illustrious family background, but now the Jingxiang Liu family is inferior to the Kuai clan under the command of Erkuai, and there is no comparison with the Pang clan who is like the sky.
It's just that Pang Shanmin also said, Pang Clan, Kuai Shi and Liu's family, how to do it in the future, just look at the descendants of each other, compete with each other, can talk about competition, the two Kuai are old, the descendants of the Kuai family, there is no outstanding one, Liu is even worse, now above the court, only Liu Qi, Liu Pan and the two, but Liu Cong, if you are dedicated to studying, you can see the great use, but compared to the Pang family, the gap between the starting point is like a moat.
Fortunately, Pang Shanmin is now young and worthy of a family, if Pang Shanmin has an heir, his son will inherit his father's business, and he will inherit the land of the two states in the future.
Although Liu Biao also has resentment in his heart, but the matter has come to this, the overall situation has been decided, and Liu Biao also knows that Pang Shanmin's treatment of the Liu clan is already regarded as an open side, and now Pang Shanmin has waved his hand and wants to get rid of the Liu clan, how many people in Jingxiang are willing to speak up?
Thinking of this, Liu Biao was a little depressed during the banquet, but this depression was also fleeting, and Pang Shanmin pushed the cup, Liu Biao hesitated for a long time, as if he had made up his mind, and said to Pang Shanmin: "The old man wants to make Cong'er and learn from your father, I don't know if it's possible?" ”
When Pang Shanmin heard this, he nodded and smiled: "Of course you can, it's just that my father is in the academy and has very strict requirements, but I don't know if the second son can persevere." ”
"The Liu family must always have someone standing in the court, otherwise, after a few years, the old man will pass away, who else can protect the clan?" Liu Biao said, and couldn't help sighing: "Although the old man knows that the mountain people don't want to harm the clan, what about others? As a master, many things are also unavoidable. ”
Pang Shanmin nodded when he heard this, obviously understanding Liu Biao's concerns, but Pang Shanmin didn't dare to boast about Haikou and protect the future of the Liu family, after all, the clan was embarrassed and difficult to deal with in all dynasties.
Seeing that Pang Shanmin and Liu Biao were silent, Liu Zhang seemed to have the courage to say to Pang Shanmin: "Shanmin, I also want my son, learn from your father." ”
"It's not bad to be with the second son." Pang Shanmin nodded in agreement, and said to Liu Zhang: "Ji Yu will not be so submissive in the future, if you have something to ask, it can be said that Ji Yu makes the people of Beichuan all the same way to avoid the suffering of the people by swords. ”
When Liu Zhang heard this, he raised his head, looked at Pang Shanmin for a long time, and saw that Pang Shanmin's expression did not seem to be fake, so he nodded.
At Liu Biao's mansion, after the banquet, Pang Shanmin embarked on the return journey, but compared to before, there were two more teenagers in the car, Liu Cong and Liu Xun both sat in the car, staring at each other with Pang Shanmin's big eyes.
Pang Shanmin saw that the two little guys looked grim, and he could guess that before leaving home, Liu Biao and Liu Zhang were afraid that they had already told the two, Pang Shanmin looked at these two young faces, and his heart was quite complicated.
These two are the future of the Liu clan.
"The two sons don't have to be restrained." Pang Shanmin saw that the two were restrained, and smiled at the two: "This is going to Changsha, the two of you are going to study, not to the execution ground, why do you have to make such a gesture?" ”
Liu Cong nodded when he heard this, thought for a long time, as if he had made up his mind, and said to Pang Shanmin: "Brother Xun and I, are both protons?" ”
"Proton?" Pang Shanmin couldn't help but laugh when he heard this: "Who told you about this?" ”
"There are many people in the family, there is a lot of discussion." After Liu Cong said that, Liu Xun hurriedly glanced at Liu Cong, but heard Liu Cong say again: "Before leaving, my father said that the general is a frank person, if you have any doubts in your heart, you can ask each other." ”
"It's not a proton, it's a student." When Pang Shanmin heard this, he laughed softly: "If the two of you become officials in the court in the future and don't study knowledge, will it be of great use?" ”
Liu Cong nodded when he heard this, Liu Xun saw that Pang Shanmin was not angry, and said to Pang Shanmin: "But the general took away my father's land and made my Liu family an official court, and there are some contradictions between each other. ”
"It's not a contradiction." Pang Shanmin smiled when he heard this: "The people of Xichuan are in the hands of Ji Yu, and sooner or later they will be plotted. ”
"I haven't seen those two princes, but now that Xichuan has returned to the general, my father must be slightly inferior to those two." Liu Xun thought for a long time and sighed softly.
"Jiangdong is in danger, Cao Cao's soldiers are strong and strong, it is because of this that Pang Mou attacked Xichuan, but Pang Mou opened up the territory, but the purpose was not to slaughter the Liu clan, but to pacify this chaotic world, although Pang Mou and Ji Yu were not entangled, but they had to attack Xichuan." Pang Shanmin saw that Liu Xun was ignorant, and said to Liu Xun: "As for the Liu family or enter the court, or the pastoral side, it depends on whether the descendants of the Liu family have real talent and learning, if the two sons can do their best to pass on the true inheritance of their fathers, they can also be officials in the future, state pastors, in the eyes of Pang, as long as they have both ability and political integrity, they can be in a high position, what does this have to do with whether the two sons are the descendants of the Liu family?" ”
Liu Xun nodded blankly, perhaps a little puzzled by Pang Shanmin's tirade, but Liu Cong's eyes lit up, and said to Pang Shanmin: "The general should be true to his word, if Cong can get the true biography of Mr. Pang, the general will give Cong a state pastor!" ”
"Then the second son must have such skills." Pang Shanmin smiled when he heard this: "Maybe the second prince thinks that Jingxiang is the Liu family's business, and Xun Gongzi also thinks that Yizhou is the land of Jiyu, but have you ever thought that more than ten years ago, Jingsheng Gong was not the lord of Jingxiang, and Junlang Gong was the assassin of Jizhou before, and it has nothing to do with Yizhou......"
Liu Cong, Liu Xun heard this, they were speechless, Pang Shanmin saw that the two little guys were depressed, and said to the two: "Don't think nonsense, you two are young now, if you work hard, you can also catch up with others, Pang can respond to the two sons, if the day logistics to cultivate knowledge, cultivate yourself, so that the courtiers are convinced, Pang will give you two high-ranking officials, what's the matter?" ”
"It's not for high-ranking officials, it's just to preserve Liu's reputation." When Liu Cong heard this, his eyes burned and said: "It's good that Cong is also the son of the state pastor, what his father lost, his son should get it back!" ”
"It's good to have this ambition." When Pang Shanmin heard this, although there was a little turmoil in his heart, he didn't think it was angry, and said to Liu Cong: "If Jingsheng knows that you have such ambitions, you should be grateful. ”
