Chapter 1101: Famine, Natural Disasters 258

As for what kind of opportunities and opportunities, he is reluctant to expose his background to others, including teachers.

"Teacher, I believe in Yiyi unconditionally, and please believe in her; My body has healed because of her, and even my martial arts can go further in a short period of time, it is because of her, she gave me a share of her chance, so I will not doubt her. ”

Fan Qingzhi stared at him for a moment, and the little boy was extremely firm, firm to stubbornness; If he continues, it will inevitably make him rebellious, I just hope that Cheng Mingyi will really be as Chaosheng said.

"Well, it's good that you know what to do."

Zhou Ting's expression softened, and he said slightly apologetically: "Teacher, if you spend more time with Yiyi, you will understand that she is a very good, very good girl; She doesn't fancy who I am, and she intersects with me because I have been close to me many times, and her family doesn't want her to be close to me. ”

Fan Qingzhi was silent.

"Teacher"

"Is her family really as you say they are, and don't approve of your dealing?"

Zhou Tingman nodded nonchalantly, "Really, the Cheng family, especially her parents, don't want students to associate with Yiyi; On many occasions, students have seen that their faces are not very good, and they are reluctant to go to their homes. ”

Amazing!

Fan Qingzhi looked at his cold face and was amazed.

Chaosheng brought the Cheng family to settle in the northwest, that is, the Cheng family knew the identity of Chaosheng; If you don't want to, then it should be no problem.

"People don't want you to go to the house, so you don't go?"

"That can't be." Zhou Ting was categorical.

Fanqingzhi: "."

Good guys, really good guys.

Is this his lonely little apprentice? Is it so thick-skinned?

"I didn't see their faces, and I didn't hear them say they wouldn't let them go."

Fanqingzhi: Shameless.

In this way, there is really no problem with the Cheng family; can be sober-minded and unwilling to get closer to Chaosheng, which shows that the other party understands the identity gap and has the heart to avoid suspicion, but his disciples are cheeky.

"Chaosheng! The old man asked a lot, what do you think of Cheng Mingyi? "If it's a friend fellowship, he's too much; If it is said that there is a relationship between men and women by age, it is also unlikely.

Fan Qingzhi looked at his little apprentice with a headache, could it really be the love between men and women? Cheng Mingyi is so young, there is a lot of difference in age!

Five-year-old gap!

Zhou Ting's cheeks were slightly hot, and he was a little cramped when he was suddenly asked like this.

"You" forget it, don't say anything, Chaosheng is really not ordinary to the little lady of the Cheng family; He said that Chaosheng has been a cold character since he was a child, and he rarely pays too much attention to others, unless this person is concerned about his interests, "You really have such thoughts about a girl." ”

Zhou Ting suddenly felt that he was a little older, born a few years earlier.

"Teacher, students don't do anything out of the ordinary, usually hold hands at most."

"Or more?" Fan Qingzhi raised his forehead, facing the rippling appearance of the tide, he didn't know what to say as a teacher, "Then what else do you want to do?"

Zhou Ting shook his head in embarrassment, "Teacher, what are you talking about; The students like etiquette, but they don't do anything out of the ordinary, and they don't think of anything out of the ordinary. ”

"That's fine." Fan Qingzhi rejoiced: "You are twelve years old, and you will soon be thirteen, does Princess Zhou have arranged for someone in the room?" ”

"Nope!"

Fan Qingzhi was weird, it was common for a man from a noble family to have a house at the age of eleven or twelve, it was not uncommon, and it could even be said to be very common; Princess Zhou didn't arrange a room for Zhou Ting, his health was better, and according to what he said, his martial arts had also improved, how could he not arrange it?

"What did Princess Zhou say?"

"The concubine didn't say anything, teacher, don't ask; Students don't want to take concubines so early, and students don't want their wives to be like their mothers in the future. ”

It was about the house of Queen Zhou, and Fan Qingzhi stopped at the right time and did not ask any more questions.

"Okay, let's go to your study first and tell you about what I've seen outside."

"Okay, teacher, please."

An old man and a young man went to Heyun Courtyard together, and closed the door of the study in order to bring tea; Fanqing Zhifang spoke.

"Chaosheng, the outside is completely chaotic, the civil war, the princes of all sides rebel one after another, natural disasters continue, and the life of the people is miserable; After the natural disaster came, the princes and the court did not manage the people, and the princes repeatedly forced conscription after the natural disaster, and the families who fled the famine and the displaced people did not see adult men nine times out of ten, and the people suffered. ”

Zhou Ting frowned, "Teacher, the suffering of the people, the students understand; Now most of the princes have rebelled, among them, the eldest prince, the third prince, and the fifth prince have gathered the princes from all walks of life, and recruited bandits to form hundreds of thousands of troops. The population of the northwest is not large enough, and the people's stability today is only because the northwest is desolate and not prosperous enough. If the students are anti-minded, they will be known by the three princes and the imperial court, and the northwest will be in danger. ”

Fan Qing stopped, and was a little relieved that he had a success, and Chaosheng was not delayed by his children's personal affairs.

"The army of the northwest is only 200,000, and it is indeed impossible to confront the princes of all stripes; You can only take Zhao'an, or break them one by one, and form more armies. ”

Zhou Ting nodded, since the teacher talked about this, he didn't hide it, "Teacher, military rations are needed to recruit security and form more troops; For the time being, the northwest is not enough to support the food of hundreds of thousands of troops, and now the 200,000 army, the palace has to pay a large amount of silver every year to supply, and some people can not afford the supply of the palace. ”

In this way, the gains outweigh the losses.

will bring down the palace.

"What you're talking about is a problem." Fan Qingzhi shook his head a few times, stopped abruptly, and said, "Why do you have to support the palace?" Merchants in the Northwest can also contribute. ”

Zhou Ting shook his head silently, the northwest is stable, how can businessmen be willing to provoke a war?

Fan Qingzhi guessed what he was thinking, "Merchants who are willing to support the Northwest Army, the Northwest Army will open the door to them for convenience; If you don't want to, you don't force it, if there is a problem in the business in the future, the Northwest Army doesn't care, the businessmen are profitable, and they know how to weigh the pros and cons. ”

"The way is a way, the hard teacher works hard for the students." Zhou Ting had an outline in his heart, but he had to stand on the moral high ground of rebellion; Let the imperial court take care of the loss, and the Northwest Army cannot be an active rebel.

There is a difference between active rebellion and passive rebellion.

"In short, prepare early, you don't want to raise troops at this time, and you have to guard against all kinds of princes; The Northwest Army resists foreigners all the year round, and I am afraid that they will come in from the inside, and at that time, the army will be on the front line, and the Pingyang Pass in the northwest will be weak, and this rare pure land in the northwest will also be destroyed. ”

Fanqing persuaded him earnestly, and Zhou Ting listened to it.

"The teacher can rest assured that the students have mobilized 50,000 troops to go to Pingyang Pass, and they will not give the princes from all walks of life a chance to mess with the northwest."

Fan Qingzhi smiled with relief, "You have grown up, and your thinking about problems has become more and more thoughtful, and it is the old man who is worried about the sky." ”

"The teacher is for the students, and the students are too late to thank the teacher."

One is sincere and respectful, the other is relieved, and after the question is finished, the knowledge is checked, and the atmosphere between the two is relaxed.

The second is more in place~~
