Song Nan didn't blame her mother for turning the little time she squeezed out to accompany her family today into a criticism meeting, in fact, when she dreamed back in the middle of the night, Song Nan also reflected on her countless times for her hard work, but although Song Nan knew that she was too obsessed with fame, fortune and power, but this qiē was a huge tide blowing sand and had to do it. Under the general trend here, if you don't enter, you will be immediately buried in the gravel, and the longer you stay in the Ming Dynasty, the more Song Nan understands the cruelty and coldness of this era.

Song Nan believes that once he no longer operates like this, he will soon be ridden by the neck, and even his name will be split to death, because the people around him are racking their brains all the time to seize power to exclude dissidents, and the root cause of a qiē is this hierarchical social system, and he can't change it, so only under its rules to cater to struggle, this is what he has to do. Otherwise, the comfortable life that Song's mother hopes for is an empty talk.

Of course, Song Nan will not explain these truths to Song's mother, Song's mother just stands in the perspective of a mother and sends out a little inner thirst for a happy life, which is also the luxury requirement of her current comfortable life, in fact, as early as in Ulzhou, her wish is not this, but hopes that Song Nan can glorify the ancestors of the light lintel, otherwise why force Song Nan to study and take the exam.

"The mother's words made the child embarrassed, the child knew that he was wrong, and the child should try to correct it in the future, after this expedition, the child will no longer run around, and stay in the capital wholeheartedly, stay by the side of the mother and everyone." Song Nan said sincerely.

The little county lord said softly: "Mother-in-law, don't blame your husband, a good man has ambitions in all directions, the husband is now an important minister of the court, the pillar of the court that the emperor relies on, and the prince of the Ming Dynasty, how can he stay at home with us all day long, how many big things does he have to do." When my grandfather was alive, he told me that he had not stayed at home for nearly three years in his early years, and he had been fighting on the banks of the Great Wall in the border town all the year round, so his grandfather could become a figure admired by thousands of people, and his husband was undoubtedly this kind of person. Why don't mother-in-law relax and let her husband do his own big things, we people actually only hope that our husband can think of us in his heart, and it is enough to go home and rest from time to time, if you want your husband to retreat bravely, it will not work. ”

After all, the little county lord is a person who grew up in a wealthy family, and her perspective on things is one level higher than that of Song Mu.

"The old body doesn't want him to stay in the house every day, the old body just vents, in fact, the old body understands this truth, how can there be a reason why the famous Daming Town Guogong accompanies his mother's wife and concubine at home every day. Let's not talk about this matter, tomorrow my son will go on an expedition, let's replace the wine with tea, toast him, wish him a victory, take the thief of King Ning, and then return to Beijing after we have a good reunion. ”

All the women nodded one after another, raised the teacup in front of them to offer tea to Song Nan, Song Nan picked up the teacup and sighed: "How fortunate I am Song Nan to have such a virtuous mother and meet you good women; Although you are magnanimous, I still have to make a promise that after this expedition I will not lead any more troops into the army, and if there is any war in the court in the future, I will not take it over if it is not necessary; In fact, my Ming Dynasty is full of talents, and many people can take on great responsibilities, but I don't have to compete for everything. There is only one thing I hope you can understand, I love you more than a qiē, and what I do is not all for myself, I just want to have an environment that can accompany you safely and steadily, how to have such an environment, that must be the main reason why no one dares to beat me, no one dares to beat your idea, this is the main reason for my progress. Of course, I also have other goals, in short, I have achieved the goal I want, and I will accompany you safely, in fact, I am not a diligent person, but I have no choice. ”

Dai Suer, Ye Fanggu, Zhu Fengtong and others all understood the meaning of Song Nan's words, and Song Nan also talked to them more than once about hidden worries, Song Nan said more than once that one thing that had the greatest impact on his life was that when he was sixteen years old, he went to Datong to participate in the township test, and saw a man in a small restaurant in Datong who was dragged out by the captain of Jinyi because he talked about the war in the north of the city; That scene made Song Nan, who had just come to your land, extremely shocked, and from then on, Song Nan realized that in this Ming Dynasty, life and death are just a matter between the lines, and the slightest accident will come to an end, and fate is in the hands of others. And the reason why Song Nan has not slackened off for so many years and even has a feeling of drilling camp is that he has to firmly grasp his destiny, and he doesn't want to become a mermaid one day, and the feeling of being unable to control his life and death is really bad.

A voice suddenly said, "I know another purpose of the eldest brother. ”

Everyone looked stunned, it was Lu Qingli who spoke, and she was looking at Song Nan with a smile.

"What do you know?" Mother Song smiled.

"Mother-in-law, of course I know that the eldest brother promised someone one thing, so if he wants to fulfill his promise, he must work hard, and when one day his power is challenged and no one can tell him what he does, he can fulfill this promise."

"Oh? Is there such a thing? Mother Song was surprised.

"Qingli, don't talk nonsense." Ye Fanggu reprimanded.

"Let her speak." Song Mu said.

"Then I can say it, I'm afraid many of you don't know about this, big brother, this is what my mother-in-law wants me to say, don't blame me."

Song Nan was also a little stunned, he was surprised by how Lu Qingli knew about this, and wanted to stop her from saying it, but after thinking about it, this matter would be made public sooner or later, and it would be better to confess earlier.

"You should all know about our grandfather and Princess Kangning." Lu Qingli said with a smile.

Song Nan and Kang Ning's affair had already caused a storm in the city in the early years, how could anyone on the table know? Even Zhu Fengtong already knew about this nonsense.

"The princess has a deep affection for our grandfather, the princess wanted to recruit him as a concubine back then, at that time, the eldest brother and the county lord's sister were just mixing oil in honey, and it was Liu Jin's trick to provoke the relationship between the eldest brother and the Guogong Mansion, so the princess knew that she vetoed that family affair, and you all know about it."

"You know, didn't he confess to this?" The main road of the small county.

"Later, the princess was sick with lovesickness and was about to die, there was no way, our grandfather went to be a panacea again, and the princess came back to life, you don't know what is going on."

"What's going on? Didn't the husband say that he relieved the princess and relieved her? Could it be the so-called promise? The little county lord was stunned.

"It's not stupid to count the county lord's sister, the eldest brother made a promise to marry the princess in the future, and the princess came back to life. People are princesses, but the eldest brother wants to marry her, is it possible to be a concubine? Isn't that going to be all over the place? Isn't it just to divorce the county lord's sister as the wife, and make the princess the wife? ”

"He dares." The little county lord said angrily.

"Don't be excited, if he wants to do this, he will be a colt directly in the first place, so why should he go to the future?" Dai Su'er reassured.

Mother Song was stunned for a long time and couldn't speak, and said dumbfounded: "My son, you can't do this well, no matter how good she is, she is also a princess, how can you fulfill such a promise indiscriminately?" It's going to be a tough one. ”

Song Nan smacked his lips and said, "Qingli, how did you know about this?" I don't remember telling you about it. ”

Lu Qingli said proudly: "The princess told me personally, the princess often asked me to go into the palace to talk to her, she is very straightforward, and she is very compatible with me. ”

Ye Fanggu said suddenly: "It turns out that you are keen on power and trying to forge ahead, and there is a reason for this. But even if you are above 10,000 people alone, this matter is difficult to solve, how can the emperor agree to let the princess marry you as a side room? ”

Song Nan knew that this question was unavoidable, thought about it and said quietly: "I must agree to what I promised, the princess has suffered so much for me, and her reputation has been greatly damaged, I can't be a ruthless and unrighteous person." If one person under ten thousand people cannot fulfill this promise, then only one person above ten thousand, not one person under one, I don't know if it is okay? ”

Everyone was shocked, and Zhu Fengtong lost his voice and said, "You want to usurp the throne?" ”

Everyone looked at Song Nan with pale faces, and Song Nan laughed and said: "You think too much, I don't do anything about usurpation, and my reputation is not good, and it may be left in the history books for 10,000 years; There is a way in this world that is much more clever than usurping, and that is what I am going to do. And I don't want to do this completely for the princess's promise, the Ming Dynasty has too many drawbacks, and if I want to change it, I can only have unstoppable power, I think this is not my choice, but the choice of history. ”
