Chapter 153, each family is selfish

After Xu Da sent Xu Huizu away, he was silent for a while and said, "Call the third child over."

The maid next to her immediately went out and called the third child of the Xu family, Xu Zengshou.

Xu Da asked directly, "Do you have any business in Beijing?"

Xu Zengshou was stunned for a moment and said, "No."

Knowing his father, Mo Ruo's father, Xu Da knew that Xu Zengshou was not telling the truth as soon as he heard the voice. And he asked, "Is there any business at sea?"

Xu Zengshou said, "No."

"Hmm-----" Xu Da hummed softly.

Xu Zengshou knelt directly on the ground and said, "There is a little bit."

Xu Da said before that the Xu family remained neutral in this big war. Anyway, the Xu family has Zhu Yuanzhang's reward, 10,000 acres of fertile land, and all kinds of shops, which is simply Xu Bancheng in Nanjing, and he doesn't care about that little money.

Although that little bit of money is also a lot of money.

It's just that the Xungui family is different from ordinary people. The wealth of the noble family is tied to the title. The nobles' possessions were generally given to knighthoods. For example, most of Xu Da's properties were rewarded by the imperial court to the Duke of Wei. This means that these family assets are indivisible.

Whoever inherits the title inherits these estates along with them.

In this way, the second sons of the Xungui family, the concubines. It's not going to be easy.

Xu Zengshou made some small moves in private, not only Xu Da knew, but Xu Huizu also knew. But nothing was said. After all, at Xu Da's age, he can leave at any time. Xu Zengshou can share a little floating wealth at most. Most of the family property has nothing to do with him. At this time, Xu Zengshou bought some industries for himself. Xu Da, as a father, and Xu Huizu, as a brother, are not easy to say.

Xu Da didn't manage it before. That's why.

Xu Da said, "Do you have any news with Beijing?"

"Nope." Xu Zengshou said, "Absolutely not."

Xu Da said indifferently, "Really?"

Xu Zengshou immediately said: "I just have some correspondence with Deng Zhen, and I don't involve anything else, I have the original here, and I don't believe that my father can read it."

Xu Da knows his third son best. I have never known that Xu Zengshou is not a peaceful person. The country is easy to change, and its nature is difficult to change. Xu Da said, "Deng Yu's son. Did he write to you on his own initiative, or did you write to him on his own initiative?"

Xu Zengshou said: "It was he who took the initiative to write to me and asked me to take care of some of the Deng family's people in Nanjing. I think that our two families have been friends for many years, so we will take care of one or two."

Xu Da said, "What benefits did he give you?"

Xu Zengshou said, "There is no benefit. It's all based on friendship."

Xu Da glanced at Xu Zengshou. Xu Zengshou said that he was lawless outside, but he was not a master who was manipulated. But in front of his old man, he was not as good as a hen all the time, just after being looked at, he immediately bowed his head and said, "He gave some engineering benefits in Beijing, about 100,000 yuan."

Xu Da's voice was not loud, but in Xu Zengshou's ears, it was like thunder, and he said, "Idiot. Deng Zhen was in Beijing, but he was just a prisoner. Where did he get a hundred thousand taels of silver? This is for you from Beijing. I'm going to pull you into the water, don't you know?"

"I know------" Xu Zengshou said honestly, "I trick them for a little money, what can they do with me?"

Xu Da shook his head and said, "How can I have a son like this."

said that Xu Zengshou was not smart, and ordinary people would not dare to make such a thing. Say he's smart. But he is clever, and he loses big because of small. Didn't he think about what kind of thoughts he would have about one day, when Beijing won the world?

Yes, even if Beijing wins the world, it will not do anything to the Xu family. But the problem is that the Xu family is the Xu family, and Xu Zengshou is Xu Zengshou.

Or maybe it's because Xu Zengshou never thought that Beijing would win the world.

This is not the same as history.

Historically, Princess Yan was born in the Xu family. This Xu Zengshou and Princess Yan have had a good relationship since childhood. King Yan won the sky

After that, Xu Zengshou got more. No matter what kind of considerations, coupled with Xu Zengshou's restless character, he naturally hooked up with King Yan.

In particular, it can be seen that King Yan has the trend of virtue in the world. Xu Zengshou worked harder.

But now, Xu Zengshou has no such direct relationship with Beijing.

Zhu Xiongying knew Xu Zengshou's performance in history, so he tried to pull Xu Zengshou over to be a senior spy. But how can a person like Xu Zengshou not understand. He just ate the sugarcoat and spit out the shells.

Anyway, there is Xu Da as a backer, and there are already two capitals in the north and south, and the relationship between them is broken.

Even if the wind is revealed, as long as it doesn't really get on the ship. Xu Zengshou will not have anything to do.

Xu Da said: "In the future, if you settle down a little, some things will be broken. However, the Deng family and my family are the best of the same family. This relationship cannot be broken, and even further. Maybe I'll give you a knighthood."

Xu Zengshou was stunned for a moment. He couldn't believe what Xu Da said.

He originally thought that today was the East Window Incident. But I didn't expect to hear such shocking words. I didn't know what to do for a while.

Xu Da didn't want to do this. But his own body and bones know it. In the future, I can only take care of it. If you raise it well, you can survive for a few years, and you can't raise it well. Maybe we'll have to leave this year. When he was there, no matter what kind of things happened to the Xu family, they would be fine. But he was gone.

What should the Xu family do?

In particular, Daming is in such a big whirlpool.

Xu Huizu is too righteous again. It's too close to Nanjing. He can't change it. My son can't help his father, he can't do anything when he is alive, what can he do after he dies? can only let the Xu family and Beijing go online.

This role is naturally assumed by his restless third child.

Xu Da naturally Xu Zengshou will understand what he means. With a wave of his hand, Xu Zengshou went down.

It's so brain-scrapping to think about a lot of things today. At this moment, Xu Da was a little drowsy.

Korean government

Li Qi looked at the booklet he took from Xu Huizu in his hand. He said to a few old people around him, "Uncles, what do you think should be done about this matter?"

These people are all old people left by Li Shanchang.

Zhu Yuanzhang treated Li Shanchang and only killed Li Shanchang alone. There was no raid. Some of Lee's aides also survived. After all, they are attached to the Korean government, and they have long been in the same vein as the Korean government, one is honored, and the other is damaged.

There is also nowhere else to go.

Now these people have become Li Qi's most important arms.

Faced with Li Qi's question, these few discussed it privately.

The first old man said, "Young Master, we don't understand military affairs, and we don't know what Fu Youde's idea is. However, he knew that Fu Youde and Xu Da were both famous generals in the world. Since there are two of them. Knowing that this is something that can be done. But we can't do it."

"The foundation of today's Korean government is the founding generals who were suppressed during the Hongmu period. Tang Shengzong died in battle, Zheng Yuchun was defeated, Fu Youde cultivated a new general, who is the person to replace? Of course, there are other factions among them. But there are also our people. And our people are not like everyone else. Fu Youde, Feng Sheng, Xu Da, three people are here. It doesn't matter if the generals under the government of each country are emptied. But although the old prince also went to the battlefield back then, after all, he was busy with literary affairs most of the time, and he did not have a deep foundation in the army, let alone the young master. The foundation of the Guogong Mansion is on these generals, and to move them is to move the foundation of my family. It's not going to work."

Li Qi pondered for a moment and said, "Then what if Fu Youde fails?"

The old man said, "Defeated, the biggest loss is Fu Youde. It is His Majesty, not us, who is in a hurry. However, if Fu Youde is really right, we must also take precautions. Find a way to lay out in advance."

Li Qi said, "What if you lay out in advance?"

The old man said, "Gather the children of each family together and train them in what is called the new art of war."

Li Qi said

"In this way, you still support Fu Youde's change?"

The old man said, "There is something that Wei Guogong admitted, how can we not know the severity? It's just timing."

"What kind of timing?" Li Qi asked.
