I have to say that sometimes it is very necessary for father and son to talk and communicate openly and honestly in person.

Just like now, if the Marquis of Zhenbei didn't talk to Bai Li, how would he know that his son, who was the least optimistic about him before and thought that he would basically be mediocre, would have such ambitions.

And from the words just now, Zhenbei Hou seemed to hear that Bai Li had a relevant plan in his heart. Therefore, I couldn't help but be silent for a while, and only after a long time did I speak: "This road is not easy to walk, and it will kill people." ”

"Death is a matter of time or time, and you will choke to death if you drink water," Bai Li shrugged his shoulders indifferently, and then chuckled: "What's more, in a troubled world, who can guarantee that he will be able to be alone." ”

"Then there is no need to be so aggressive," Zhenbei Hou said quietly: "Looking for a good lord to serve and assist, it is not impossible to save your life." ”

"That's just another reincarnation," Bai Li replied: "More than two years ago, it was my good luck in Youzhou, coupled with proper planning, that I was able to survive under the planning of the imperial court. But father, can you be sure that after a hundred years of you and me, the descendants of the Bai family will also have this kind of luck and strength to fight against each other in the new dynasty?

In case the time comes to meet another monarch who is very happy...... Father, the Hou clan of Zhendong has not been gone for long, and the Hou of Zhenxi has just driven to the west, you don't want my white descendants to end up like them. ”

“...... That's all for today," Zhenbei Hou looked at Bai Li for a moment, and then spoke again: "I've been away from home for so long, I'm afraid my son has a lot of things to do, so my father won't delay your time." ”

"Then father, I'll leave first," Bai Li saw that Zhenbei Hou didn't seem to have any intention of talking, and he didn't continue to entangle, and after answering, he turned around and prepared to leave.

And just as Bai Li turned around and was about to leave the study, Zhenbei Hou suddenly spoke again: "Li'er, if you are asked to lead the army all the way and sit on one side, how will you achieve the final victory in this upcoming troubled world?"

"Build high walls, accumulate grain, and slow to become kings. ”

Using history as a mirror, we can know the rise and fall.

There are so many examples in history that are standing there, so this question is naturally not difficult for Bai Li.

“...... Slow down the king?" Zhenbei Hou watched his son leave the study, smiled, and then sighed: "I didn't expect that among my three sons, the second son, who was the least optimistic earlier, saw this aspect the most.

The adopted son is like this, what can he ask for for the father?

It's just not ...... Isn't this the eldest son and eldest grandson? If it really happens in the future...... I'm afraid this home will never be as calm as it is at this time. ”

It's no wonder that Zhenbeihou has such worries.

As the saying goes, once you enter the Houmen, it is as deep as the sea, and in the face of huge interests, family affection is often set off in a different light.

The reason why the Zhenbei Hou here before, did not fall into the dilemma of restlessness and separation of children and heirs like other princes' families and the door of the powerful. The main reason is not only because the three sons of Zhenbei Hou are all born to one mother, but also because the position of the son of this world is indisputable.

Needless to say, Bai Li has always been a sick scholar outside, whether he can live past the age of thirty or not, such a person is that the Marquis of Zhenbei wants to bypass the etiquette law and pass on the throne to Bai Li. Even if he agreed, his subordinates would never have agreed.

As for Bai Li's third brother, he was too young, and the Marquis of Zhenbei was also guarding against this before, so he directly sent him to Lumen Academy to study. Let it not have the opportunity to contact the military power and the important ministers of Youzhou.

There are no soldiers in his hands, and there is no support from important ministers, and it is useless to have any ideas.

So in fact, as early as before, the Hou of Zhenbei arranged all this clearly.

But now it's different.

With the imperial court stepping on the red line, the princes of the three towns are destined to fight one after another. The coming of troubled times is unstoppable.

There is a way that the times create heroes, and in this case, some of the previous arrangements of Zhenbei Hou are inappropriate and not very appropriate.

For example, Bai Li, who still has a force in his hands, needless to say, his strength can even be compared to masters of the heavenly list such as Ma Fujun and Duan Fusheng.

Such a character, unless the head of Zhenbei Hou was squeezed by the door, how could he be trapped in the empty pavilion and not used.

And Bai Li's third brother is the same, there is a way to fight tiger brothers, father and son soldiers. Rebellion is such a thing, no matter how reliable outsiders are, they are not as reliable as their own family members.

At that time, once the fight really breaks out and falls into a protracted war, there will definitely be a shortage of manpower in all aspects. Even Bai Li's third brother couldn't hold the scene and couldn't lead the soldiers. In the case of a shortage of manpower, especially in the case of a shortage of people who can be trusted, help transport grain and grass in the back and take care of the logistics head office.

It's really not good to deal with administration, and it's no problem to manage a city and a government.

However, for this use, it is not so easy for Zhenbei Hou to take back all this given.

When the time comes, once it really happens, as Bai Li said, the world will change its surname to Bai. Then that chair will probably become the object of his son's next fight.

And once there is a goal to fight for, and it is also the position of the Son of Heaven who has all the power of life and death in one place. I'm afraid that no matter how good the relationship between the three brothers was, there would be estrangement, which would breed hatred.

Take 10,000 steps back and say, even if the three brothers can withstand the corrosion of power, can the people below them be able to withstand it?

The yellow robe is not only in the allusions of the history books, but also in the real world.

Regarding this, Zhenbei Hou had experienced it before.

Yao remembers that in the past, when Bai Li sent the relevant news back, and when the Marquis of Zhenbei convened his important ministers to discuss, his henchmen were more enthusiastic than him, the lord of Youzhou, in the matter of changing the dynasty.

And it is precisely because there are so many henchmen who are advocating the change of dynasty that they finally overwhelm the balance that has been shaking in the heart of the Zhenbei Hou Mansion. Let Zhenbei Hou also make the decision to compete for the world.

"Forget it, children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, let's talk about it later. ”

Successive dynasties have not been able to come up with a suitable solution in this regard, and in such a short period of time, it is obviously impossible for Zhenbei Hou to come up with a strategy for both.

Therefore, after being silent for a long time, the Marquis of Zhenbei put it aside for the time being. began to think about how to move next, and how Youzhou could become the last party to laugh in this battle for deer.

“...... I didn't expect Li'er to be equally good at strategy, and it seems that when we discuss it in the future, we can bring them with you. ”
