Chapter 12: Unexpected Changes
Fu Xiang was annoyed that he had neglected such an important thing, but at this time, Zhuang Feng told him that there was still a turning point, and he was immediately interested in listening to what Zhuang Feng had to say;
So, Fu Xiang walked to the rest area and sat down, waiting for Zhuang Feng's next words;
This Zhuang Feng was not polite, picked up such a napkin from the messy ground and wiped his face, and then walked over calmly, and did not speak directly, but first poured tea and took a big sip, then lit a cigarette, took a deep breath, and then said:
"I didn't expect Master Fu to be a civil official, but he has such handsome kung fu, it's really disrespectful and disrespectful;"
Fu Xiang didn't care about Zhuang Feng's nonsense, he only watched with interest, as if he had Zhuang Feng's life in his hands, and if he wanted to pinch it, he would pinch it flat, and if he wanted to rub it, he would rub it round;
"It's not like this seat, it's already a wasted person, it's really ashamed;" Zhuang Feng didn't care about Fu Xiang and Ben not answering, and said to himself;
"Do you know why this seat will become a wasted person? In fact, it was too anxious back then, and I was angry, and I was hurt; if I wasn't so anxious, a little slowly, step by step, it wasn't that this seat was supported, and my work would be further improved;" Zhuang Feng naturally understood what Fu Xiang was thinking at this time; wasn't it that woman hiding in the quilt and comforting herself, thinking that she was hiding tightly and having a good time; but the result was that she was performing in public, thinking that others didn't know, but in fact, she had already been looked at; so she was angry and wanted to kill people;
"It's a little anxious, but the facts have come true, how can I turn it back?" Fu Xiang finally spoke, because he understood Zhuang Feng's words;
Zhuang Feng's words were said on the surface, but in fact, he said that he was in a hurry to do this, and he was a little overbearing; even if he knew that he had changed his mind, but after all, he didn't say it openly, so what he did was to give people a handle and let people grab their tails, and then they could openly trample him to death;
"Immediately slaughter Liu Fengshan;" Zhuang Feng saw that Fu Xiangyou listened to what he said, so there was no need to go around again;
Fu Xiang fell silent again, because Zhuang Feng's words were too direct, and at the same time, Fu Xiang also had his own concerns;
Fu Xiang is not an indecisive person, on the contrary, he is still a decisive person; but, as Zhuang Feng said just now, he thinks he is secretive, but in fact he has long been seen through; then, in this way, killing Liu Fengshan at this time, then it is likely that he will also step on the tail of the old foxes in the imperial capital;
In addition, Fu Xiang has other concerns; as Zhuang Feng said, he is in a bit of a hurry to do this, so now he can only slow down; and this slowdown, then these people who belong to him can only stay for a while; and Zhuang Feng said that he immediately slaughtered Liu Fengshan, then the problem comes;
Liu Fengshan has been following him for more than 20 years, and no matter what, he is still meritorious; even if he has a private connection with the imperial capital, he cannot be killed immediately; this is something that has to be taken into account;
Killing Liu Fengshan will definitely chill the hearts of other people; a person who has been with you for more than 20 years can say that he will be slaughtered, so what will other people think; at the same time, he already knows that Liu Fengshan is connected with the emperor, so there must be things he doesn't know, if he rashly kills Liu Fengshan, how will the imperial capital react;
More importantly, in the past few years in Jiangzhou, Liu Fengshan's popularity is very high, and in the original plan to return to the imperial capital, Liu Fengshan also had to accompany him, because he has made meritorious contributions to governing the local area, and he is one of the people who have also been rewarded, and he is also one of the very important ones;
Taken together, this Liu Fengshan cannot be killed, or cannot be killed for the time being, but, as Zhuang Feng said, Liu Fengshan should be slaughtered immediately;
As for the reason, Fu Xiang himself is no longer trusted, and Liu Fengshan is still in private contact with the imperial capital, so there will definitely be a problem in this, and even he Liu Fengshan will make excuses for the old foxes in the imperial capital, and then get rid of him Fu Xiang;
To kill, to kill, or not to kill? Fu Xiang is a little uncertain, no matter how you look at it, it is difficult to make a decision;
As long as Liu Fengshan is killed, then the imperial capital's monitoring of him can be cut off, and even the excuse he is looking for to deal with him; and after killing Liu Fengshan, he will immediately cancel the plan to return to the imperial capital next month; and then wait until the end of the year, as long as it passes safely, then the imperial capital will not find a reason to deal with him, and at that time, whether he wants to or not, he must follow the rules and let him enter the cabinet as prime minister;
Fu Xiang understood this, although he was confused for a while, but Zhuang Feng reminded him a little, and it was natural to straighten it out;
"What do you want?" Fu Xiang straightened out the meaning of Zhuang Feng's words, but he couldn't make a decision; at the same time, he appreciated Zhuang Feng more and more, because he was in the rivers and lakes, and he actually saw how clearly these things between the imperial capital and him, and reminded him, of course, this will definitely not be because of bullshit friendship to remind him, naturally it is in the interests of the people to do this;
"Jiangzhou;" Zhuang Feng looked at the change in Fu Xiang's expression, and knew that he had straightened out the key points, so naturally he didn't have to hide anything, and directly said what he wanted;
"Jiangzhou, aren't you afraid to die?" Fu Xiang actually expected it a long time ago, this Zhuang Feng will come back, it must still be based on Jiangzhou, as for whether it can reproduce the peak of the Zhuang family in the future, it is not good;
It's just that Zhuang Feng said it so directly, but Fu Xiang still has some disdain, Jiangzhou is an important town in the southwest of the empire;
"This seat has always had a good appetite;" Zhuang Feng was not angry at Fu Xiang's sarcasm, although he had just reminded Fu Xiang that he had helped him, but this Jiangzhou would definitely not be so easy to get;
After all, he Fu Xiang is still an official of the imperial court, and this country was also beaten down by his ancestors, you Zhuang Feng is a person from the rivers and lakes, and this sentence wants this state capital, which is really a bit excessive;
"It's better to be careful, if you eat the wrong thing, you will have a bad stomach;" Fu Xiang didn't dare to agree to Zhuang Feng's request, because now he was at this critical time, especially after Zhuang Feng's reminder, he knew that at this time, he couldn't let the emperor find any excuse from him;
And with what the dealer did before, if he loosened this mouth and let Zhuang Feng toss, then this would also be an excuse for the imperial capital to deal with him;
"Is the scar on Gu Xiangye's neck still there?" Fu Xiang didn't let go, and Zhuang Feng began to talk nonsense again;
"I haven't seen it;" Fu Xiang was surprised that Zhuang Feng suddenly pulled out such an inconsequential thing, and he really hadn't seen Gu Jinxian's neck scar, so he didn't understand what Zhuang Feng said at this time, so after thinking about it, he said it truthfully, for fear that Zhuang Feng would pull something out again;
"It seems that my heart was still soft at that time, if this person's heart is soft, no one will remember the pain;" Regarding Fu Xiang's real answer, Zhuang Feng still sighed a little there;
Zhuang Feng sighed with the blind, but when Fu Xiang heard it, he immediately understood;
At that time, Gu Jinxian was appointed as prime minister because of the chaos that was tossed out by the stable banker, that is to say, Gu Jinxian had dealings with Zhuang Feng;
Of course, this is not entirely true, because Gu Jinxian himself is the same as him, belongs to the internal candidate, as for whether it will be the same as his situation at this time, this Fu Xiang really does not know; but one thing is certain, Gu Jinxian's period in Jiangzhou is the time when the Zhuang family rises;
Then the dealer swallowed the southwest, which shocked the world, but the court did not investigate; did not even deal with the banker, and the collapse of the banker, in addition to the secret support of the court, is the result of the promotion of the original forces in the southwest, it can be said that the dealer was like a rebellion, but never convicted, and even did not treat it as an illegal riot of the underworld;
If you really want to talk about the government's attack on the banker, it was only after he Fu Xiang arrived in Jiangzhou, but the same is not to investigate the banker's affairs back then, but to clean up the gangsters in the form of political achievements;
Seeing this, Fu Xiang suddenly shuddered, not because these frightened him, but because he thought of something deeper;
However, the military system was changed, abandoning the system of the previous dynasty and changing it to a military region system; the so-called military region system was to set up a military region based on a defense area, and each military region had its own defense area; moreover, the military region was separated from the cabinet and was subject to the jurisdiction of the military cabinet formed by the prime minister; in this way, it seemed that the group of big soldiers was suppressed, but in fact these people belonged to the military department under the direct control of the prime minister;
At present, there are seven military regions in the Great Jin Kingdom, and in this southwest half, there is a Shaozhou Military Region, and its defense area is the entire southwest half of the wall, defending the border defense line of the five southwestern states;
Fu Xiang really didn't think much about this before, because the Zhuang family swallowed the entire southwest underground force with the power of the rivers and lakes, and did not directly attack the government to rebel; however, it was the entire southwest half of the wall, and the entire southwest half of the wall was swallowed by a whale of the rivers and lakes, and the military actually kept silent, and only the southwestern provinces all reported to the public; it was precisely because the southwestern provinces all reported that the bankers had the prestige of shocking the world;
There are some things, that really can't be more serious; in the past, although the dealer was famous all over the world, but it collapsed quickly, and no one did a deeper investigation; now that I think about it, this dealer is really a little terrible; not only by virtue of this Jiangzhou territory, it has the strength to swallow the entire underground order in the southwest, but also has the acquiescence of the military, which is too unbelievable;
The more I think about it, the more I can't think about it, Fu Xiang finally understands; the hidden power of this Zhuang family is extremely deep, don't look at the collapse of the Zhuang family for ten years, and the southwest has also been calm for ten years, but what Zhuang Feng really wants to do, it is not something he can stop; and according to the meaning of what he said just now, Gu Jinxian also let Zhuang Feng fiddle with it back then, but he didn't hear any rumors;
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but let Fu Xiang re-evaluate the Zhuang Feng in front of him who had been beaten by him just now;
"Jiangzhou can be returned to you, but you have to wait until this seat enters the phase;" Fu Xiang figured out a little, and some didn't understand it, but he could be sure of one thing, that is, whether Jiangzhou let go or not, it would have to be Zhuang Feng sooner or later;
In other words, Fu Xiang thought of Gu Jinxian, since he can make a deal with Zhuang Feng, and stabilize his position in the past ten years, then this Zhuang Feng may really be able to affect some people in the imperial capital, although the current Zhuang Feng is no longer the head of the Zhuang family ten years ago, but some things are not counted like that;
"Okay, then I will thank my lord first, and if there is anything useful in the future, just open your mouth;" As long as Fu Xiang can loosen this mouth, then Zhuang Feng's purpose will be achieved;
In fact, Zhuang Feng didn't care too much about whether Fu Xiang could enter the phase, because his current strength was too weak, and he didn't have that ability;
Although Zhuang Feng does have a shallow friendship with Gu Jinxian, but if this person wants to talk about friendship and faithfulness, there is a premise, that is, the status is equal, otherwise there is no so-called friendship and trustworthiness with the original, which is based on strength;
For these, Zhuang Feng is naturally very clear, otherwise he Zhuang Feng would not be able to live now;
Zhuang Feng only does one thing now, to take Jiangzhou into his hands in the shortest possible time, only in this way can he have the strength to talk to those so-called 'old friends';
However, Zhuang Feng is actually not optimistic about Fu Xiang, not to mention anything else, just the gap between his behavior and Gu Jinxian doomed him to never return to the imperial capital, and even ended up dead, which is not impossible;
It is undeniable that Fu Xiang is indeed a scheming character, but compared with the old foxes in the imperial capital, he is still a little immature; he should never be decided, such as Liu Fengshan; even he can see that this person is the key person to whether Fu Xiang can return to the imperial capital smoothly, but he should not be killed, he uses and abandons;
Do you think there is any difference between abandoning meritorious men and killing meritorious ones? It is better to kill those who are willing to kill others when it is time to kill them, and it will also leave an image of killing and resoluteness on others, and also make those who are ready to abandon you a little worried in their hearts;
In this way, Zhuang Feng no longer has much hope that Fu Xiang will be able to return to the imperial capital, but only hopes that he can stay in Jiangzhou for a while longer, so that his Zhuang family can return to the official mansion to help their Zhuang family regain control of this Jiangzhou City;
"It's easy to say;" Fu Xiang didn't know what Zhuang Feng was thinking in his heart, otherwise he would be able to slaughter Zhuang Feng immediately;
"Banquet?" Zhuang Feng changed back to a respectful appearance, just looking at the messy VIP hall that was beaten, it was a little ridiculous, so he continued: "Master Fu, how about changing places?"
"Haha......" At this time, Fu Xiang also saw the messy VIP hall, and immediately laughed;
Perhaps, this is the result of unequal strength; if it is the Zhuang family ten years ago, whoever is the governor of Jiangzhou will not dare to make a move with Zhuang Feng, at most it will be a quarrel;
Zhuang Feng could only laugh with him, and at the same time he was about to change places, and at this time, Fu Xiang's phone rang, and Zhuang Feng went out first;
It's just that Zhuang Feng waited outside for a while, but Fu Xiang didn't come out, so he came in again to take a look, and this look really made Zhuang Feng almost laugh out loud, because Fu Xiang at this time was paralyzed as if he had lost his soul;
"Master Fu, what's wrong?" Zhuang Feng couldn't help laughing, and then asked with pretending to be anxious and concerned;
"Liu Fengshan has run away;" Fu Xiang replied weakly;
Originally, Fu Xiang was also wary of Liu Fengshan, and even sent someone to monitor it, just to prevent any accidents;
"Master Fu, what we have to do now is to calm down, Liu Fengshan ran away, but he didn't run back to the imperial capital so quickly, now he has to send someone to the station and airport, as well as the highway, and he has to be arrested in Jiangzhou;" Zhuang Feng also knew that things were a little troublesome, not for anything else, but for Zhuang Feng himself;
Because of this Liu Fengshan, Fu Xiang must focus on this, so what he asked Fu Xiang to do, this may have to be delayed, so this can be regarded as a half-sincere reminder to Fu Xiang;
"Young Master Zhuang, this official will go first;" Under Zhuang Feng's reminder, Fu Xiang also returned to normal, and in a normal state, Fu Xiang is indeed a character;
However, in this Zhuang Feng's view, Fu Xiang will not be able to become an atmosphere after all, and he even began to doubt how he got to where he is today;
"Master Fu go slowly;" Zhuang Feng said scenely, but he was a little speechless to Fu Xiang in his heart; think about it, with Fu Xiang's reaction to the incident, it is no wonder that the internal phase is confused, or that it is only because he is the eldest son of the Fu family, otherwise such a person is really too far from the old foxes in the imperial capital;
