Chapter 255: Shock
In the warm pavilion of the Minguo Mansion in the capital, eleven-year-old Huo Roufeng asked, "Is it just to fight King Gui?" ”
She didn't name names, but everyone who heard it understood that she was referring to the Zhan family.
The Duke of Min is both wise and brave, and he is not a god, he can't calculate the royal meeting room tritium, one day, King Gui will rebel, he also can't calculate that the queen mother and the emperor will leave Germany, mother and son have different paths, and he will not calculate that the court is busy with party recruitment, and the national strength is getting weaker and weaker.
Since the Duke of Min couldn't figure it out, how could he train his sons early, let them learn the art of war, and cultivate an army that was proficient in land warfare.
If Huo Roufeng guessed correctly, the previous generation of Min Guogong had already begun to prepare.
So, why is the exhibitor?
At this time, just after the Spring Festival, according to folk customs, Zhanhuai was only a fifteen-year-old boy. For the first time, he saw confusion in Huo Roufeng's eyes.
He has known Huo Jiu for almost a year, although she is only an eleven-year-old child, but like many boys from large families, she is confident and proud, they are born with a golden spoon in their mouths, and they are blessed, so even if they have fun all day long, they also know what they are doing, and Zhanhuai has never seen this kind of look in Huo Roufeng's eyes.
His voice became gentle, he didn't want Huo Roufeng to worry, but he didn't want to hide it from her.
"Xiao Jiu, our family has been in Fujian for several generations, there is one thing, I have never told you, I will tell you now, don't be afraid, no, you won't be afraid, but you may be surprised."
Huo Roufeng suddenly became solemn when she saw Zhanhuai, she didn't speak, just looked at him with wide eyes.
Zhan Huai continued: "Do you still want to talk about a female general who has won all battles when Bai Shuixian was telling stories in the Sifang Teahouse that day? ”
Huo Roufeng nodded, of course she knew that she asked Bi Daoyuan to write those books, and then she also let people spread them.
"That female general is indeed a person, but it is just an exaggeration of folk storytelling. Not only did she really exist, but she was also my great-grandmother, without whom there would be no father, let alone five of us. ”
Although Huo Roufeng had long known that Mrs. Gao was Zhanhuai's great-grandmother, she was still taken aback when these words really came out of Zhanhuai's mouth.
She once thought that in this life, except for what she thought, no one would ever admit the existence of Mrs. Gao, and the story of the female emperor and the female general was just a story, only existing in the mouths of storytellers on the streets and alleys.
Seeing her mouth open wide in shock, Zhanhuai couldn't help but clench her hand, and there was a little more hoarse in her voice: "Xiao Jiu, my great-grandmother's surname is Gao, she is a world-famous female general, and she is also a super first-class fateful makeup." The Zhenguo Gong you mentioned last time is her cousin, the Gao family is not a big family, they are famous bandits outside the Guan, they were, and they are. ”
It was, and it is.
Huo Roufeng had heard Zhanhuai say that the Gao family was bandits outside the gate, but she only thought that before defecting to the Xie family, the Gao family was a bandit.
She even thought that the Gao family was long gone.
Zhenguo committed suicide, the Gao family withered, no clansmen collected the corpse, or Mrs. Gao traveled thousands of miles, from Fujian to the capital, and from the capital to Fujian, brought back the coffin of the Gao family, the Gao family was buried in Fujian, and failed to return to the homeland to rest until death.
For the first time, Huo Roufeng's voice trembled, and she asked, "You mean, there are still people in the Gao family, and there are still people in the Gao family alive?" ”
Zhanhuai nodded solemnly: "Xiao Jiu, in fact, I don't know very well, because my father didn't tell me these things, our family is only passed on to the eldest son in each generation, so only the eldest brother knows, but usually they occasionally mention it, the third brother is a few years older than me, after the second brother goes to the capital, my father and eldest brother, anything will be discussed with the third brother, therefore, the third brother also knows some sporadically, this time after my father was attacked, I was with the third brother all day long, once the third brother drank a few more glasses, and said something to me, I learned from him, The Gao family still has descendants, just outside the Guan, and they are still doing their old business, the court is busy fighting against the Tartars, and there is no manpower and material resources to suppress bandits outside the Guan, therefore, the Gao family is not only doing well, but also the biggest force outside the Guan, but except for the people of our family, no one knows that they are the descendants of Zhenguo Gong. ”
Yes, of course, no one knows that since the beginning of the "Taizu" of this dynasty, the history books have been changed, generation after generation, I'm afraid that even they themselves can't figure out what the real history is, even if they know that there was a Zhenguo Gong, they won't know what the Zhenguo Gong Gao family used to do.
The Gao family used to be a bandit, and even Huo Roufeng in the previous life didn't know about it, so it can be seen that after the Gao family made a career, they no longer mentioned their early background.
After all, it's not a background that people can talk about.
Huo Roufeng glared at Zhanhuai, and then repeated after a while: "There are really people alive, how many people are there, do they still have contact with your Zhan family?" There must be, right, otherwise it was so difficult back then, how could the Gao family still have children and grandchildren, it was your family and Mrs. Gao who kept the Gao family's blood and bones, right? ”
Zhanhuai didn't expect that Huo Roufeng's reaction would be so big, but he didn't think much about it, and said: "I don't know exactly what happened, but I guess it must be like this, otherwise why would my great-grandmother take the coffin to Fujian for burial, only because Fujian is relatively safer, the imperial court has punished the crime, so it is impossible to open the grave and whip the corpse, but she still has to be so cautious, I didn't think about it before, now that you say this, I guess it will be she brought back to Fujian at that time, not just a pile of coffins, Will there be any surviving descendants of the Gao family? ”
Huo Roufeng couldn't help nodding: "It must be so, otherwise why does the Gao family still exist now, it must be like you said, Mrs. Gao has preserved the last blood of the Gao family." ”
Zhanhuai didn't want to talk about the Gao family, but Huo Roufeng's reaction was too big and too unexpected for him, so he had to let go of Huo Roufeng's hand and change her cup of hot tea again.
Huo Roufeng took a sip of tea, and her mood gradually stabilized, she sighed and said, "This is really more exciting than storytelling." ”
Zhan Huai'er, stretched out his hand to pat her head, and continued: "Because of the matter of Zhenguo Gong, although my great-grandfather and great-grandmother were not seated together, they also lost the emperor's heart, when the Japanese people went ashore to rape, kill and plunder, the people in the coastal area were not able to make a living, the court was thousands of miles away, helpless, and could only rely on our family, so from my great-grandfather to my grandfather's generation, our family has been at war, although the court tried every possible way to dominate us, but there was no other way, but to watch our family's power grow stronger and stronger along the coast. ”
