"General, you're finally here, quick, sit down, sit down"

The location of Liuzhou Stargazing Tower is the best, a large number of rooms are allocated to military households, but there are still a small number of commercial use, among which the most expensive location is the top floor, which has been taken down by those chambers of commerce with strong financial resources, and has become the most expensive restaurant in Liuzhou City, there is the best view, looking down on the entire Liuzhou City, looking at the vast emptiness, drunk and singing, which is not enjoyed by the imperial city, attracting many rich people to come here.

Today, it is rare for several old subordinates to have a New Year's holiday, and the brothers naturally want to get drunk.

"Ouch, since we came to Jiangnan, how long have we not been together like this?" One of the big men had a flushed face, and he had obviously secretly quoted the blood ginseng wine, and he was very interested.

Tian Heng looked at each other funny, the name of the person who spoke was Meng Sheng, he was one of the veterans who followed the Tian family at the beginning, he was the most opposed to coming to Jiangnan, but he didn't expect to come for a few years, and he was the one who had the most nourishing life.

Saying that the Western Navy is rich and oily, in fact, refers to his soldiers, and the commercial houses in various places have to give him face, and in recent years, it can be described as a spring breeze, and there are people who call General Meng everywhere he goes, and even the families in the capital have to curry favor with him to facilitate the maritime trade business.

This guy is not very promising, after entering the transcendental, he began to get drunk and dream of death, according to him, it is not interesting to live too long, and when the children and grandchildren earn enough capital, they should be reincarnated and start a new life.

For this, the old brothers despised him a lot.

"You are idle" Many old brothers gave him a blank look: "We are tired and tired." ”

"Isn't that your heart big?" Meng Sheng smiled: "This work of sea trade is not on your own initiative, you don't want me to pick up the rest, it's too late to complain now." ”

said proudly, but for some reason, when Meng Sheng said that they had big hearts, there was a sudden strange change in the depths of the eyes of several people, and they were a little fierce, but then they immediately returned to normal.

When Tian Heng saw this scene, his face was also complicated.

If his brothers were all people who were content with the status quo like Mengsheng, maybe they wouldn't have to come this far, right?

At the beginning, most of the brothers were dissatisfied when they first arrived in Jiangnan, but after half a year of coming, everyone was extremely enthusiastic and extremely satisfied, because the strength was visible to the naked eye, and at that time, he saw some hidden dangers.

That is, the ambitions of the brothers are not small!

The reason is very simple, when choosing positions, there is obviously no one to choose the maritime trade guards with more oil and water, and the tasks of desert island development are very active.

Why?

Of course, it is because the desert island development has a lot of independent military power, and those island countries are far away from Jiangnan, and once the military power in the center of Jiangnan is weak, it can be divided as the king at any time, which is also the reason why many generals prefer to be far away.

As the development of Jiangnan is getting better and better, the strength of the Western Navy has skyrocketed, and the ambitions of the brothers have become more and more inflated.

Especially in the contrast of the Gladiator Army.

In Jiangnan, everyone yearns for the fighter army, and many people are dissatisfied with those mud legs, so Chen Qing made up for it, and it was the Xihai tribe to join, and the rescue from the southeast was handed over to them, Tian Heng admitted that Chen Qing was not sorry for him, and he was kind enough.

But it's all this far, and who wouldn't want to go any further?

Doesn't Xu Hu want to?

It's just pretending to be honest.

In history, when the monarch was strong, everyone was loyal, but who was absolutely loyal?

The former dynasty Taizu was the commander of the forbidden army, and if he could serve as the commander of the forbidden army, he was naturally trusted by the king, but what was the result?

As soon as the king had an accident, he put on a yellow robe, bullied orphans and widows, and changed the country!

If it is said that at the beginning, it is definitely impossible for the former dynasty Taizu to have that ambition from the beginning, but when the opportunity comes, how many can resist the temptation?

This is the perfect opportunity!

Chen Qing was trapped in Yundu, and judging from the plan shown by that person, Chen Qing had no chance of coming back alive at all.

His lieutenant general, ninety percent of them were tempted by that person, if he didn't agree, there was only one way, and that was to kill all these old brothers.

But in this way, even if he proves his loyalty, how much status will he have in the West Sea in the future?

If you have done this, who will want to follow you in the future?

Even if he proves himself like this, will Chen Qing absolutely trust himself?

People's hearts are unpredictable, from Chen Qing's point of view, he chose loyalty for a while, what if he regrets it in the future? When you have a second chance, will you do the same?

Wouldn't he be suspicious? After choosing absolute loyalty, will you be able to die a good death?

No one knows for sure.

Tian Heng drank silently.

"Lao Meng, you are relieved, it's okay." One of the big men drank wine and said, "No matter what happens in the future, the brothers will definitely protect your wealth!" ”

"Tian Ye!" Tian Heng suddenly glared at the other party: "What nonsense are you talking about?" The Lord knows people and is good at duty, and needs you to protect them? ”

"Eha, yes, yes." The big man was stunned for a moment, and then immediately raised his wine glass and said, "It's my brother who said the wrong thing, and I will punish myself with three glasses!" ”

Meng Sheng was also stunned, and then Ye laughed: "You mouth, sooner or later you will get into trouble, three cups is not enough, at least ten cups to start!" ”

"You old Meng, what kind of grudge do you have?" The other party suddenly rolled his eyes: "Find a chance to die, don't you?" ”

A group of people suddenly laughed, and the seemingly harmonious scene was not as hot as just now, and for some reason, it was cold.

He knew these old brothers too well

He always remembered. Back then, the brothers followed the King of Qin, and they were originally living a hot life, and their lives were thriving, from a second-rate family to a big family that no one dared to underestimate in the world, and the King of Qin was a great favor to their Tian family.

At that time, he was also doing well, and he was extremely grateful to King Qin in his heart.

But one day. The brothers' attitudes began to become ambiguous and eccentric, and at that time I had a feeling of unease, and in the end, the uneasiness became a reality.

The Tian family participated in the encirclement and suppression of the King of Qin, and the army of the King of Qin, who had fought side by side, was driven out by them with a butcher's knife, and he always remembered those things, especially one of the brothers, who was a member of the army of the King of Qin, and when he was defeated by his own encirclement and suppression, he begged himself to let his family go.

At that time, I agreed, but in the end, I didn't save anything.

On the grounds of cutting the grass and eradicating the roots, the surrounding brothers slaughtered the other family's nine clans, and the female dependents were wantonly kneaded by the soldiers who turned into beasts.

As a result, for many years, he could dream of that brother's resentful face

He really didn't want to go through that again, but it seemed that the brothers didn't think so.

He has been with these people for so many years, and many people know what kind of fart they are holding when they see him, and he knows that this group of people is going to do it again.

Why?

Meng Sheng doesn't understand, Jiangnan is thriving, the bottom brothers are living so well, he has never had such a comfortable day for so many years, this is not only because of his position is rich, but also because of the atmosphere of Jiangnan, this soft and hopeful environment, under his own witness, is getting better day by day, this feeling. It's not the same as it has ever been.

Such a good day, such a good Jiangnan, still can't stop the ambition of this group of brothers?

Meng Sheng drank wine, and a trace of sadness flashed in the depths of his eyes.

What a terrible thing, people.

——

"General. Lao Meng noticed it, and now there is nothing wrong with this, do you want to?"

"Shut up!" Tian Heng's face turned pale: "Don't you recognize anything?" One day if there is a chance, can I even kill it? ”

"It's not. How can this be the same? Several lieutenants frowned, and the atmosphere became a little cold for a while.

"We don't have any other meaning, we just said, let's take care of Lao Meng, now that killing people will definitely alarm the Yin Si, we don't want to startle the snake, right?" One of the big men hurriedly played the round.

As soon as these words came out, Tian Heng's face looked a little better, and he hesitated for a moment and said, "Let me think about it, let me think about it."

Several lieutenant generals glanced at each other when they heard this, Tian Heng, the master, was righteous enough for his brothers, but the disadvantage was that he was indecisive, the wave of King Qin back then, if they hadn't reacted decisively and cut off his back road, he might not have been swaying left and right in the end, throughout the ages, what would happen to those who swayed left and right?

It seems that this time, they have to come out and help this soft-hearted leader make a decision!
