After hearing the four words "Restoring the Han Dynasty", Guo Songtao slowly calmed down. He pulled the hem of his long robe gracefully and sat down slowly, and his face returned to his usual calmness. "Brother Ji Gao turned out to have such lofty ambitions. He was disrespectful."

Although Guo Songtao's words were complimentary, he was rude in his tone, but he was full of sarcasm. Zuo Zongtang didn't care and smiled slightly and said, "Brother Bo Chen thinks the four words "Restoring the Great Achievement of Han" are wrong?"

Guo Songtao snorted and said, "We Han people still live and work in peace and contentment, Han Confucianism is still passed down from generation to generation, and Han students still enter the court to participate in politics and benefit the country. How can we start from the great cause of restoring the Han Dynasty? Is it really a Han people who become emperors to restore the great cause of the Han Dynasty? For the sake of their own selfish desires, the people in the world will suffer from war. I would rather not have such a great cause of restoring the Han Dynasty."

Zuo Zongtang nodded and said, "You and I are both scholars. If the great cause of restoring the Han Dynasty is really like this, I would rather not."

Guo Songtao glared and said, "Then you still have to follow the thief?"

Zuo Zongtang shook his head and said, "What I said about the great cause of restoration of the Han Dynasty is not what Brother Bochen said. Brother Bochen, what you said just now is biased. Han people live and work in peace? Since the Qing Dynasty entered the pass, which dynasty did not have the Han people who rebelled in the Han dynasty? Recently, there are many people who rebelled in the Chu Bailian Sect in Jiaqingchuan, the Tianli Sect in the Daoguang Sect in the morning. A few years ago, there were Lei Zaihao, Li Yuanfa and others in our Hunan. If the people could

How could so many people rebel in peace and contentment?! This is even more ridiculous. Since the Qing Dynasty entered the pass, the mosquito prison has been promoted and confined my Confucianism. Since the Qing Dynasty, scholars have only focused on research and have few innovations. There are no changes and renewals in the Ming Dynasty, and they have adapted to the world. These Confucian legacy. The Qing Dynasty governs Confucianism with the words of the official family. Brother Bo Chen, do you think this is still the style of Confucianism in the Han Dynasty?”

Guo Songtao was speechless. He was a scholar, but also a Han Chinese. Naturally, he knew this. He had such confusion in the past, but his enthusiasm for becoming an official was soon weakened.

Zuo Zongtang slowly continued, "I entered the court as an official, haha, the Qing Dynasty used fame and fortune to make us scholars gradually forget the legacy of Confucianism." At this point, Zuo Zongtang stared at Guo Songtao with bright eyes and said, "Brother Bochen, do you know what our Han family's clothes were originally like?"

Guo Songtao was stunned for a while before slowly smiling and said, "I have seen it in the book."

Zuo Zongtang sighed lightly and said, "Yes, in the future, we Han people will only see what our Han people look like in books. It's so pitiful, lamentable, sad."

Guo Songtao was silent for a moment and said, "Can you restore the Confucianism of the Han family be restored by growing hair? Can you restore the clothes and clothes of the Han family? They believe in foreign religions."

Zuo Zongtang said in a deep voice: "It is indeed hateful to gather ignorant people with foreign ants to deceive the people and cause chaos, but one thing they are good about is that they really want to expel Hu Nu and return the Han family's mountains and rivers! I have been in the city for so many days, and I watched coldly, and found that these long hairs do not perform the etiquette of people, do not wear the clothes of people, and do not shave their hair, and do not shave their hair and braids. They have never seen what the clothes of the Han family look like, so they would rather wear costumes than wear them. This integrity is indeed admirable."

"Although Changmao has such a perseverance, their strange powers and spirits will sooner or later be defeated and will not be able to achieve the great cause of restoring the Han Dynasty. But when I met their Western King, I began to make some changes." Zuo Zongtang stood up, walked with his hands behind his back and continued: "When the Western King first met, it would make people feel vulgar, but it was thick and thin, with long-term eyes, and often unexpected behavior. After entering Changsha, he did not burn, kill, loot, and even damaged the Book Hall and Temple, which shows that he was different from the ordinary Changmao."

Guo Songtao nodded and said, "I also know what King Changmao Xi did in Changsha. This person is indeed a master of personal strength, unlike an ordinary bandit. He can tell from his chessboard that he is a man with a world of mind."

Zuo Zongtang said again: "There is also his wife, Princess Xi, who is also a strange woman. A woman not only has excellent martial arts skills, but also has a rare experience. "Zuo Zongtang said Hong Yuner about Confucianism.

Guo Songtao sighed lightly: "I didn't expect that the couple of King Changmao and the King of Kings had such knowledge. Could it be that Ji Gao was effective because they had such knowledge? It should be noted that they did not seem to be the Lord of Changmao."

Zuo Zongtang nodded and said, "I naturally know that Zuo was the King of the West, not the King of the Gods of the Gods. Hong Xiuquan, who was a turbulent god! Since the King of the West has such knowledge and his subordinates are able to use their troops, he has occupied Changsha. Zuo is considering the people in Hunan and the Confucian scholars of the Han family. He simply assists the King of the West so that the King of the West can achieve great achievements without going on a wrong path from now on and harming the world. The Qing court is corrupt, the officials in the court are corrupt, and the soldiers and generals are not willing to make progress, so they are no longer useful.

I have seen the court's actions recently, and it was really cold. Since we could not hope that the Qing court could stabilize the world, why not join the peace, guide Taiping to respect Confucianism and Taoism, save the world and the people, and restore the Han Confucianism? Zuo would rather be ruined than to use foreign religion to harm our Chinese culture. So Zuo could only assist His Highness, the Western King, who had extraordinary knowledge, hoped that the Western King would listen to my advice, give up the foreign religion, work hard to rule, and expel Hu Nu, rather than helping the Qing Dynasty massacre the Han people who were in charge of the Han people!"

Guo Songtao stared at Zuo Zongtang for a while and said, "It turns out that Brother Ji Gao, you are feeding tigers with your body. Who can go to hell if you don't go to hell? "

Zuo Zongtang smiled bitterly and said, "Today I saw the court's announcement. Sai Shanga, Luo Raodian and Changsha all arrested the capital and questioned the crime. They were defeated by the thief and did not think about how to work hard to govern. They only knew the strict punishment and laws. Emperor Xianfeng seemed to be not a wise ruler. Although the Western King is still small now, fortunately, it is easy to turn around because the boat is small. Zuo also intends to overcome all obstacles for him and achieve great achievements, so that he can learn everything he has learned."

Guo Songtao lowered his hands weakly and said, "Brother Ji Gao is really ashamed of this idea. Only with such a fearless demeanor can he make this decision. You must know that this is a way out."

Zuo Zongtang smiled faintly and said, "Life is like a chess. If you don't have the last step, how can you know whether the earliest step is right or wrong?"

The two were silent for a moment, and Zuo Zongtang stood up and said, "Brother Bochen is not my own. I will come to see Bochen today because I am considering the friendship of the past. I will say goodbye to the King of the West for Bochen and let Brother Bochen go. In the future, you and I may meet on the battlefield. At that time, each of them will be their own masters, so I will not keep my hand."

Guo Songtao felt sad and sighed: "It's not you and me. Perhaps the children in Hunan will be tragic, and even the Han people in the world will fight each other for their own actions. Who is right and who is wrong at that time?"

Zuo Zongtang opened the iron gate, turned around and smiled faintly, "That's more, it's natural that the winner is the king, and the loser is the enemy."

...

Zuo Zongtang indeed went to ask Xiao Yungui to let Guo Songtao go, but Xiao Yungui refused, saying that he was worried that after Guo Songtao was released, it would be unfavorable to Zuo Zongtang's trip to Xiangtan. Although Zuo Zongtang repeatedly promised that Guo Songtao would never sell his friends for honor, Xiao Yungui just refused. He didn't want the talent he had dug up to be captured by the Qing army. He only agreed to wait until Zuo Zongtang returned to the army after returning to the army. Zuo Zongtang knew Xiao Yungui's kindness, so he had to agree.

The next day, Zuo Zongtang took his family to Xiangtan. Before leaving, Xiao Yungui and Hong Yuner personally sent them to the Fuqiao Ferry outside the South Gate. Zuo Zongtang's family went south by water, and could also avoid the Taiping Army and Qing Army in Chenzhou who were fighting by land.

When one foot stepped on the board of the boat, Zuo Zongtang turned back to Xiao Yungui and said, "Your Highness, no one has any long-term plans. The most important thing at the moment is to gather old subordinates and find a good excuse to go south. You know the nature of the Heavenly King and the East King. Zongtang really dares to make random suggestions, so as not to become a dog like a dog if you don't know how to draw a tiger. But Zongtang thinks that since the West King and the Heavenly King and the East King met each other and raised their troops together, there must be some brotherhood on the left and right. If it is at a critical moment and there is really no way to do it, you might as well express your true feelings. According to the feelings of brothers in the past, things may turn around."

Xiao Yungui patted Zuo Zongtang's arm and said, "Sir, Jinshi, good advice, I will remember, take care of you all the way. I sent Tong Qiangsheng and other brothers to come with you. Their hair is still there, and they are from Hunan, so no one will doubt it. If there is any danger, they will report to me immediately. No matter how dangerous it is, I will raise troops to rescue you immediately!"

Zuo Zongtang felt warm in his heart and bowed deeply: "Zongtang will do his best to handle affairs, and there is no need for the King of the West to worry. Zongtang will definitely convince the clan to join the clan to join him. Zongtang swept his bed in Xiangtan to welcome the arrival of the King of the West!

Xiao Yungui laughed and nodded, "I am waiting for a good voice! Let's see you again in Xiangtan, see you all!"

The passenger ship carried Zuo Zongtang, Tong Qiangsheng and others against Xiang River, and the shadow of the boat finally disappeared into the early morning autumn fog.

Xiao Yungui looked into the distance and suddenly became cheerful. He laughed three times at the sky. The servants near him were a little surprised, but there was no one who had fun coming up to ask why His Highness laughed.

"What kind of nerves do you get in the early morning?" Hong Yun'er walked to him and muttered in a low voice.

Xiao Yungui looked up: "I'm laughing boldly, you four-eyed girl doesn't know anything!"

Hong Yuner snorted and said, "Will you go and see if you cut people at Xishikou?"

Xiao Yungui was stunned and said, "Who will be chopped down?"

Hong Yuner looked at him with contempt and said, "Didn't you order the Wing King to be executed? Today, Luo Bingzhang and Weng Tongjue were executed?"

Xiao Yungui's square head kept shaking: "If you don't go, what's the good thing about killing a human head?"

Hong Yuner said lightly: "No matter how you say it is, it is the first historical celebrity who died at your hands. Don't you go and see it?"

Xiao Yungui snorted and said, "If you don't go, there will only be more and more historical celebrities who will die at my hands in the future, so I won't go. Besides, I want Luo Bingzhang, it's not me who died in Tongjue Weng, but Xianfeng."

Hong Yuner nodded and said to herself: "Someone doesn't have the courage to see the beheading!"

Xiao Yungui was furious and turned his head to shout at the guards of the guards and said, "Let's go to Xishikou to see the demons!" The defenders of the guards took the order with a loud bang and led the horses.

Xiao Yungui and Hong Yuner got on the horse together and headed towards Xishikou. Xiao Yungui frowned and looked at Hong Yuner who was swaying on the horse and said, "Why do you have to see the beheadings? Are you not afraid?"

Hong Yuner's face was a little pale, but her tone was still calm: "We will experience a lot of tragic things in the future. If we cannot adapt to this kind of darkness that can eat people as soon as possible, sooner or later we will be eaten by the darkness." At this point, Hong Yuner suddenly smiled sinisterly and said: "Maybe you will like to kill the head after seeing it."

Xiao Yungui shivered and whispered, "It's not as perverted as you!" But seeing Hong Yuner's delicate body shaking gently on the horse's back, the trembling of her body became more and more obvious. Xiao Yungui realized at this moment that she was actually a little scared, but as she said, the more you are afraid, the less you can't adapt to this reality, and sooner or later you will be backfired by reality. I don't know how many bloody scenes they will experience on the road they are going to go.
