Shen Shuren listened calmly, and he didn't look anxious at all.

It seems to be questioned about academic opinions, and in his opinion, it is just a matter of drinking water and eating.

Fang Ziling's questioning tone was originally stable, just a pure academic discussion. But considering Shen Shuren's official position, she originally thought that the other party would be ashamed, but in the end, she was so calm, which made her a little cramped.

"Don't you think these prophecies need to be revised?" Fang Ziling's heart was furious, and she couldn't help but ask more.

Only then did Shen Shuren smile: "What is there to change?" I said that sooner or later there will be a merger between the three thieves, and Li Zicheng has an advantage, but I haven't written when they will merge, and this is not the deadline. ”

Fang Ziling was stunned for a moment, this was pushed clean enough, it was just a nonsense without nutrition. She felt a little tricked, and added a point or two of light anger and anger:

“…… So if you say that, isn't Brother Shen's opinion never wrong? If they don't harm each other for ten years, they can't verify it for ten years? ”

Shen Shuren took a sip of tea: "This is indeed the case, but does Miss Fang really think that thieves can be rampant for ten years?" Naturally, we will see when the time comes. ”

Fang Ziling raised her eyebrows and thought for a few seconds: "It's not inconceivable to drag on for ten years, the thief Zhang Yi, hasn't it been thirteen years, who knows when it will be peaceful." ”

Shen Shuren sneered: "How can this world withstand ten years of repeated killings!" The extremes of things must be reversed, chaos will be combined for a long time, and my Ming Dynasty will inevitably prosper. ”

The last few words of Shen Shuren belong to political correctness and do not fall into the handle.

He could only say that in ten years, the world would be stable again. But he didn't dare to say who would settle down, so he used "inevitable ZTE" to write lightly.

Fang Ziling is also a smart person, he knows the severity, and he will not dwell on those sensitive topics, so he crooked the building back in a muddy way:

"Since Brother Shen thinks that the world will not be chaotic for ten years, can you set a specific time limit for the previous hypothesis?"

When asking this sentence, Fang Ziling's eyes had an expectation that he hoped that the other party would retreat.

She is not very familiar with Shen Shuren, and she has only had a few relationships before, and her understanding of him is mainly to read his books, so she has no grievances.

She also admits that Shen Shuren is very thoughtful, and occasionally has a shocking talent. But I still hope that the other party will be humble and leave a good reputation in Shilin.

But the people of Shenshu obviously don't need a reputation for modesty.

To be famous as soon as possible, people who have the ability are still in a hurry to make meritorious contributions, of course, they should be crazy!

What's more, in this kind of private chat occasion, there is no need to consider the consequences.

Shen Shuren directly increased his weight and said proudly: "This is also easy, I think that the thief will try to harm his comrades, as fast as a few months, or as slow as a year or two, that will inevitably happen!" ”

Romance

When Fang Ziling heard this, she couldn't help but be surprised.

Why is this guy so crazy? Isn't he afraid that he will be ridiculed by the world after prophecy and goofs?

Fortunately, she reacted quickly and immediately realized that this was just a private chat and would not be spread.

She couldn't help laughing and said: "Brother Shen, it's important to be sincere in learning, and it's not interesting to brag." Do you really think so, or is it because you don't say anything at the moment, no outsiders hear you, and you're not afraid of being embarrassed in the future if you say something wrong? ”

Shen Shuren dusted his sleeves: "There are many people and few people, I have this opinion." If you had asked me earlier, I would have written it directly into "The Theory of Thieves", but then I would have to adapt to the situation and adjust the strategy of the thief. ”

Fang Ziling's surprise couldn't help but refresh again, this guy actually dared to write anything into the book.

She was also a little succumbing, and continued to arch the fire:

"Brother Shen's self-confidence is really something I have only seen in my life, and I admire and admire him. Can you allow my little sister to write it down in her notes just now? If it can't be fulfilled in the future, and this note is accidentally spread, Brother Shen won't blame the little sister for not covering it up for you, right? ”

"Whatever you want." The Sinking Tree Man took another sip of tea indifferently.

Fang Ziling felt more and more incredible, like a hundred claws scratching her heart, she really wanted to know where Shen Shuren's confidence came from, she adjusted her mood and said in a relatively sincere tone again:

"May you ask what you guess? It can't be a guess, right? ”

Shen Shuren said in a good time: "It's not impossible to tell you the process of strategy deduction, but the thieves have not tried to harm their comrades now, some things are too clear, if they leak out, won't it lead to targeted response by the thieves and delay the military aircraft?"

However, for the sake of Fang Futai's beloved daughter, you are also the family scroll of a feudal official, and you have a lot of reading knowledge, so you should not deliberately leak secrets.

If you have to know, swear a poisonous oath that I will not leak my analysis until the dust settles. If the two years are over, and the thieves do not try to harm their comrades, then even if my plan is not accurate, this contract will be null and void, and it will be spread by you when the time comes. ”

Fang Ziling felt that this was also very reasonable, so she agreed:

"Good! I'll bet on you! Whatever you say for a while, I will only remember it in my heart, and I will never take notes, nor pass it on until the end of the two years, or until the matter is fulfilled. If this oath is violated...... I'm like those foolish women who don't read for the rest of my life! ”

Shen Shuren listened to her solemn words in the first half, but he also praised her.

But the price of breaking the oath really flashed him.

Rao is he has been calm and relaxed tonight, and finally broke the gong, a mouthful of tea squirted out, coughing again and again: "What kind of poisonous oath is this?" Is it a punishment to not study for the rest of your life? ”

Fang Ziling was a little overwhelmed by his sudden fierce reaction:

"This ...... Isn't that price enough? Brother Shen, you are also a two-list jinshi, and you are famous in the world, so you must be a person who is eager to learn. Can't you understand the pain of not being allowed to study for the rest of your life? ”

Shen Shuren was stunned by the question, and he was embarrassed to admit it, and unconsciously made a mud:

"That's it, so be it. In my opinion, Li Zicheng has not tried to harm Luo Rucai and Ma Shouying now, but it was too smooth sailing before, and there was no need to use thunder methods. can be subdued in other ways and have less internal friction, of course, he is also happy to see it.

However, it is easy to go from thrift to luxury, and it is difficult to go from luxury to thrift. Especially this time when Luoyang fell, the tens of millions of taels of wealth of King Fu and the Luoyang gentry were obtained by the thieves, which were all used to buy people's hearts and recruit troops.

In just a few months, Li and Luo have grown from tens of thousands to more than 100,000. Ma Shouying also had nearly 100,000 people, including those who fled to rely on Ma Shouying after the destruction of the rest of the 5th Battalion of the Revolution.

After the thieves become powerful, they must have more far-sighted plans, and now they are attacking Kaifeng and wanting to take the entire territory of Henan, which is the embodiment of the ambition of the thieves. If Li Zicheng can lead the thieves and go smoothly on the road of slaughtering and robbing the hugely rich vassal kings and looting and expanding the army with war, he can certainly count on gradually and peacefully buying and annexing Luo and Ma's subordinates.

But the court and local kings will also learn a lesson, this time the king of Zhou has taken out so many property to sacrifice the army and let the official army defend it. Li Zicheng didn't know the changes, he just wanted to use the old technique he used in Luoyang to re-break Kaifeng, plus it was about to enter winter, and it was not conducive to attacking, and the first battle would definitely be unfavorable!

After he is frustrated, the voices of internal power seizure will definitely rise one after another, and when the time comes, it will be too late for him to slowly try to subdue Luo and Ma, and he can only see blood through internal friction! And as long as the situation reaches this point, Luo and Ma have heirs and Li Zicheng has no heirs, Li Zicheng can share the joys and sorrows with the soldiers, and his ability to buy people's hearts will definitely be better than the two thieves! ”

Shen Shuren said that these details were also without any psychological burden, after all, he could expect Li Zicheng's pride and complacency, as well as King Zhou's wealth after eating a trench and growing a wise health.

Now these factors have not changed, in history, it took Li Zicheng a year and a half, three times to win Kaifeng, and now of course it will be difficult.

History does not simply repeat itself.

Any commander who wishes to simply replicate the successful experience of the previous campaign will generally be deflated as long as the opponent knows how to learn the lesson.

And once Li Zicheng's absolute authority is challenged again, how can he not kill people and unify people's hearts?

Fang Ziling was dizzy to hear it, it was obviously a very mysterious braggart rehearsal, mixed with the two sets of logic of "from thrift to luxury, from luxury to thrift" and "history will not be simply repeated", and it seemed to sound a little more reasonable......

But she always felt that the reasoning should not be so conclusive and detailed.

At this time, she couldn't refute it, so she could only verbally express her willingness to wait and see, wait for the results to come out, see if it was fulfilled, and then decide her attitude.

No matter how nice it sounds, if it can't be realized, it will still be a slap in the face.

Shen Shuren didn't care if he persuaded the other party immediately, it was originally an academic discussion, and people had to bet on him to play, so he accepted it when he saw it:

"You can figure it out for yourself, history will prove it anyway."

After chatting with Fang Ziling for a few more words about history and academics, the atmosphere eased a little, and the Fang family's dinner was ready.

Fang Kongzhi personally came to invite Shen Shuren to the table, only then did he notice that his daughter had been asking for advice and arguments just now, and he hurriedly said a few polite words, so that Shen Shuren would not mind.

"Let the virtuous nephew smile, my tutor is not more rigid than those famous Donglin families, the old man is good at arithmetic and calendar, the dog and his sisters are also influenced by the old man, and they like to argue with others, don't go to the heart of the virtuous nephew."

Shen Shuren responded with a smile: "Okay, people all over the world are humble and humble, and it is rare for me to dare to say and do such a foolish person." ”

Fang Kongzhi saw that everyone was familiar with each other, so he didn't stop his daughter from entering the table, and everyone had a dinner together. Shen Shuren and Fang Ziling on the table were also talking and laughing freely, and they couldn't see the confrontation just now.

After the banquet, Fang Kongzhi left his daughter alone and asked her about the academic topics discussed today. Fang Ziling also kept his promise, and did not tell the details of Shen Shuren's analysis, only saying that Shen Shuren dared to predict that the thieves would harm their comrades, only within one or two years.

This conclusion naturally surprised Fang Kongzhi again.

He sighed helplessly: "Young people suddenly become famous and occupy a high position, and they will indeed feel that they are omnipotent, which can be regarded as a slight flaw." Ling'er, what do you think of this Shen Shi brother's character and talent?

This Shen family and our family are now more and more related. His family is the richest man in Suzhou, and Shen Gong also mentioned the Nanjing household servant, originally we could still talk on an equal footing, and in the future, I am afraid that our family will climb their Shen family. ”

Fang Kongzhi had never talked to his daughter like this, but today he obviously moved his mind before he officially tried one or two.

However, Fang Ziling bit her lip and said very disappointedly: "Father, what are these words!" Is it possible for our family to cling to wealth? My daughter is still young and doesn't want to think about those things! Besides, what my daughter admires is a modest gentleman who seeks truth from facts. Those arrogant people, no matter how rich and powerful they are, are not gentlemen after all. ”

Fang Kongzhi frowned: "He may not be arrogant. Maybe he really has the talent and foresight to be able to strategize and win thousands of miles away?

Some words may sound like big words to ordinary people, but as long as the person who says them can do it, it is not a big word. ”

Fang Ziling: "Then wait for time to prove that he can really calculate accurately." ”

Fang Kongzhi couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly: "You will be seventeen after the New Year!" At that time, your eldest sister was already considered to be married late, and she was married to the Sun family at the age of seventeen. This kind of battle of will has to wait for proof, isn't this nonsense! Besides, if he really wants such a talent, he will definitely be the supernatural giant of the Ming Dynasty at that time, where will it be our Fang family's turn! ”

Fang Ziling: "If it's not your turn, it's not your turn, the friendship between gentlemen is like water, and my daughter just asks him for advice." ”
