The moon is full of stars, guests are arriving, and friends are gathering together.
The entire dinner was spent in a lively atmosphere.
After talking and laughing, changing cups, drinking wine for three times, dishes and five flavors, the banquet in the small building is over.
With the blessing of the dragon ball, Liu Yi could never get drunk after a thousand cups. After he pretended to be drunk, he stood unsteadily at the door of Wangnanju and bid farewell to his relatives and friends with a drunken smile.
After everyone was settled, Liu Yi did not stay at Wangnan Residence for the night. Instead, he followed his father Liu Quansheng and Xia Qing and strolled back to Zigui School under the gentle moonlight. The three of them sat around the stove, leaning on the stove. On the warm rabbit blanket, I boiled a pot of tea in the classroom of Zigui Academy and started chatting.
There were two blushes on Xia Qing's cheeks, and she lay lazily beside the stove. She breathed out drunkenly and said with a smile, "You kid, why didn't I notice before that you are actually a wine god!"
When she said this, Xia Qing had a triumphant expression on her face, as if she was rejoicing that Liu Yi could achieve today's achievements.
"Haha, my boss Xia, Yi'er has been with you for several years. Don't you still know my drinking capacity?"
Later, Liu Yi explained to the two what happened to Hanfeng Temple, and also told everything about Xie An of Liaoxi County who interrogated and subdued four middle-level warriors.
"Sure enough, the emperor is blessed by heaven!" Xia Qing couldn't help but admire.
Xia Qing had just finished speaking, and Liu Quansheng suddenly became energetic. He narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at Xia Qing warily, thought quickly, and confirmed that Xia Qing lay down again after being drunk. "There is only one person in the world who can win the favor of God by talking gibberish while drunk."
There is something in Liu Quansheng's words. The emperor's Changshui Guards are responsible for spying and assassination, and his armor is hidden in the world. In Lingyuan City, which is not big or small, there are naturally the emperor's Changshui Guards stationed. No one can say for sure who will be on the wall of Zigui Academy. There wouldn't be such a Changshui guard breaking down the door to eavesdrop, so just now Liu Quansheng was reminding Xia Qing not to make a drunken gaffe.
"No, no, no, it's two of them!" Xia Qing was really drunk. He didn't understand the meaning of Liu Quansheng's words. He shook his head stupidly and said, "Isn't Daqin, who monopolizes the style of Beizhou, one of the best? !”
Liu Quansheng glared at Xia Qing angrily and followed Xia Qing's words to help him out, "If we go by this, there are still fifty or sixty people in the Western Regions!"
"Aren't you making excuses? I'm ignoring you!"
Xia Qing seemed to be used to being in the world, lazy and carefree by nature. After saying this, he turned over and looked at the moon with a pair of dull and empty eyes. Then he closed his eyes and fell asleep alone. go.
Under the moonlight, the little son returned to school, leaving only father and son.
Liu Yi poured a full cup of tea for Liu Quansheng and said softly, "Dad, on this trip north, what I saw and heard was complicated and complicated, and the dangers I encountered were endless."
Liu Yi was about to speak but stopped.
Liu Quansheng smiled warmly, "What do you think? But it doesn't matter! It's easy for you and me, father and son, to say whether we are right or wrong!"
Liu Yi swallowed his saliva and said in a low voice, "The Chinese people use force to establish their country and use culture to secure the country. However, there are some truths and some things that cannot be explained by reason. Sometimes, truth needs to be revealed from the barrel of a gun!"
Liu Quansheng came from a Confucian background, but he was not displeased with what Liu Yi, a Confucian protégé, regarded as a 'heterodox'. Instead, he smiled warmly and praised, "In troubled times, heavy scriptures are needed. My son is right. After this trip, My son has grown a lot."
Liu Yi scratched his head and flattered Liu Quansheng, "It's all because of my father's good education!"
"Hahaha!" Liu Quansheng smiled freely and asked, "Do you have any next plan?"
Without thinking, Liu Yi immediately asked Liu Quansheng and said, "Dad, there are still two months to celebrate the New Year. I want to form the Pingtian First Army before the New Year."
Liu Quansheng narrowed his eyes, "What then?"
Liu Yi said categorically, "When the Pingtian Army is first formed, we will send our troops southward to find the old Zhao Yao after the new year. By the way, we will pay a visit to the Zhao family in Fanggu County. What do you think?"
Liu Yi gave Liu Quansheng a look that was expected of him, but Liu Quansheng's expression was calm.
"Don't be anxious, don't be anxious."
Liu Quansheng said slowly, "Old Zhao Yao, it doesn't matter if you stretch him a little more. Now that you have got the piano insect, the initiative is in your hands. You know, the easier it is to get it, the less you know how to cherish it. The less you know how to cherish, the harder it will be to talk about things on the table."
Liu Yi thought about it again and felt that what his father said was reasonable, so he nodded in approval.
Liu Quansheng took a sip of wild mountain food and continued, "I heard rumors that Zhao Yao will hold a banquet to celebrate his birthday in June next year. Wouldn't you be more happy if you went to give gifts? Besides, regarding the formation of the Pingtian Army, I can't become fat in one sitting. With you, Boss Xia, I'm afraid I can only send you here. As for the next road, my son still has to think carefully about it. "
Liu Yi was very alert and asked immediately, "Did father talk about what happened after Pingtian in the Five Counties?"
"Haha! That's too far away." Liu Quansheng patted Liu Yi's head lovingly and said, "After the five counties are leveled, my son's achievements will be great. Next, he will either continue to level the world, or Whether it's to go to court and pay homage to an official, or to have a fight with Jiang Feng, or to retire after success, there are many choices, and you don't have to worry about your father."
Hearing the word 'Jiang Feng', Liu Yi was full of confidence, "After Pingtian's army is established, I will have the confidence to compete with Jiang Feng."
"Son! There's someone out there!"
Liu Quansheng noticed that Liu Yi had a higher ambition after his trip to Bozhou in the north, and immediately advised him sincerely, "Quzhou covers the land of the six kingdoms of the ancient Central Plains, and the relations are intricately intertwined. Two generations of the Jiang family can suppress the eight major families, and Dacheng Reaching the top, his family is full of talents and its strength is strong and stable. Under the calm tide, it will never be as simple as you think. In the next five years, my son is afraid that the heat of the battle with Jiang Feng is far from coming. In five years If it works properly in the future, my son will gradually gain momentum, and may be able to form a tripartite force with the Jiang family, and then the Central Plains will be stable for a hundred years!" m.
Liu Yi was not discouraged. Instead, he stared with big round eyes, expecting his father to give some advice and help.
Seeing that Liu Yi wanted to know what was going on, Liu Quansheng breathed out softly and explained, "Choose soft persimmons. His Majesty selected the five counties of Huaxing, Zhangwu, Liaoxi, Chisong, and Fanggu to implement the "Five Grain Civil Order". One of them, this The five counties are the key points to control the north to Bozhou. The terrain is critical and cannot be ignored. Secondly, except for the Lingyuan Liu family and the arrogant Zhending Zhao family, the rest of the families in these five counties bow to the holy knees. For concern."
Liu Quansheng pursed his lips and smiled, "To put it bluntly, Your Majesty has chosen the best path for you, but even this best path will bring you many difficulties and dangers. My son, the world is like my generation, waiting for you When I went to Zhending County and met Zhao Yuhai, a descendant of Zhao Yun, the Five Tiger General, I knew how to write the word 'unattainable'!"
"About Hirata, I know more or less, and I can also guess a few things!"
Liu Yi passed Zhao Yuhai, his thick eyebrows furrowed, and he said softly, "I feel that the families who were more involved in the chaos among the princes did not seize the opportunity. If ten years ago, when His Majesty's throne was unstable, the powerful nobles would If we work together to force the palace, ask your majesty to grant you a feudal fief, and wait for an opportunity to control the government, then the situation of the family will be decided."
Liu Yi came to a conclusion and said, "It's a pity that after the chaos in the capital, the big and small families were busy dividing profits and fighting for power, restraining each other, and the hearts of the people were divided. Now, His Majesty's military power, political power, and great righteousness have been added to the wind and the sea to invigorate the country. In North Tunnan, although the aristocratic clan is still powerful now, their demise can only be a matter of time."
Liu Quansheng nodded and continued to guide Liu Yi, "Yi'er is right, but the centipede insect is dead but not stiff. The two brothers Xiahou Liuhuo and Xiahou Liufeng are just a drop in the bucket of the huge Jiang clan. You, a small Pingtian army, even There are no scholars who have entered the country. If you want to fight with others, you must either endure it for a few years or take advantage of the situation!"
The ground in the atrium is white, the long night has just arrived!
In the house, the father and son were still chatting by the fire, and the Yinxu Bingfu was lying quietly next to Liu Yi, shining brightly.
"Father, you mean to take advantage of His Majesty's momentum? To have a showdown with Jiang Feng?"
Liu Yi paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "Aren't you borrowing it now?"
"It's through the power of people's hearts!" Liu Quansheng gently patted Liu Yi's chest and said meaningfully, "It's not easy for Your Majesty to reach this point!"
Seeing Liu Quansheng staring at him with a smile, Liu Yi thought about it and immediately said, "Father is saying that Your Majesty will not interfere in this matter anymore? He will only bury the chess pieces and then stand by and watch?"
Liu Quansheng nodded.
Liu Yi was very puzzled, "Then why is this?"
"Today's twenty-eight great families have all made great achievements in the Qin-Han War. Your Majesty eradicated those who helped quell the rebellion. This is not something that can be put on the table. How can you make a big deal about it? Besides, Your Majesty is also a very face-conscious person, and he will directly send troops to help or forcibly search the family property..."
Liu Yi suddenly realized it, and then remained silent.
Liu Quansheng shook his head helplessly and sighed, "As for what kind of momentum we can use, it depends on how the situation develops in the future. The chaos among the clans is very different from the nature of the princes and kings who were determined to rebel in the past. The minds of these clans are different, and they are far from what they were back then. The princes and kings are determined to rebel, and this will be profitable!"
"Face?" Liu Yi ignored Liu Quansheng's last sentence and looked slightly angry, "Is face comparable to the peace of the world and the eternal stability of the country? Is it comparable to the prosperity of the people and the harmony of the world?"
"Haha! It's not written like this in the history books. I remember that when I was Emperor Wu, the family was not prosperous. Emperor Wu ordered that all the powerful people in the country with assets of three million yuan move to Maoling in Chang'an to live there. It couldn't help but set off a bloody storm. It left a disgraceful mark. From then on, no one in the history of the Han Dynasty dared to use this method. After all, who wants to be the emperor for eternity and will leave a disgraceful page in the history books?"
Liu Quansheng took a sip of light tea and said, "Besides, every family has sutras that are difficult to sing! Among all the people in the world, the sutras of the old Liu family are the most difficult to sing."
"If you do things carefully, they will be successful." After listening to Liu Quansheng's explanation, Liu Yi turned his anger into laughter and laughed, "If you think things through carefully, you will definitely win. Even if you don't think everything through, don't you still have a father?" "
"Young and energetic boy!" Liu Quansheng laughed and cursed, then asked, "How much does my son know about the current family?"
Liu Yi was confused about this, so he asked Liu Quansheng directly, "Please give me father's advice."
The most intelligent father and son in the world are planning the world in a small classroom.
Some people died, but not completely...
