Chapter 12 The general trend of the world
Duan Yi was a little surprised. Literati was so mysterious that he wanted to brag about his three-point ability. Before obedient, he had to twist a sweat towel, and he could get rid of the water vigorously.
The Doctor of the Sweeping Monk was like a sweeping monk who reported to his own house. It made people feel that it was more than half a bucket of water and wanted to get the reputation of the sweeping monk.
But I never expected that it was a real, not very polite hermit.
"Qi Langzhong is a famous scholar in Dingzhou and has gone from the same school as Mr. Yan Jing. They have great knowledge in this school. I originally planned to worship Mr. Yan for Mingrui."
Gu came from the army and spoke more heroically than ordinary people. He didn't like to go around the corner.
"Mr. Yan once passed the Jinshi and served as an official in the court for a few years, so he quit. Unlike your grandfather, he accepted all kinds of cats and dogs, and was called "peach and plums all over the world. Mr. Yan only accepted one student, which was Cui Zigeng, Jiangnan. Mingrui and he had no fate with him."
Duan Yi's heart moved. From this point of view, Cui Zi is not a simple person either.
As if seeing through Duan Yi's curiosity, Gu Congrong patted her shoulder with some fear and signaled her to sit down on the stone bench outside the thatched sanctuary. "This time you are lucky. You happened to meet Cui Zigeng who went home to attend the funeral."
"This Cui Zi is the concubine of King Cui Yu of Jiangnan. His mother is Cui Yu's favorite concubine Wang. Cui Zi is even more civil and military..."
Gu Congrong said, looking in the direction of Jiangnan Road with some envy, "No one in the world is envious, Cui Yu Youzi Cui Zigeng. Cui Zigeng became famous in the battle and led Xuan Yingjun. He is an amazing person."
"This time he went back to Jiangnan to attend the funeral because her biological mother died. This involves a major event that the servants still don't know about today."
When Gu Congrong said this, he pulled the conversation apart and suddenly asked, "Mr. Huang said you heard their conversation. Did you guess what my grandfather was anxious to ask someone to recover?"
Duan Yi's eyes moved and she pondered for a while. After a while, she said tentatively, "Is there any injury on my grandfather's body right? When I was in the mansion, my cousin and I were taking medicine, so I didn't smell it."
"My grandfather wanted to retire and return home, return military power, and ask the military master to go out, so that he would get this loyalty back."
"When I heard my grandfather say that people in the world still don't know about major events, I thought, my grandfather was afraid that he would not have received the news and rebellion, and it was even more related to Cui Zi in Jiangnan. At this time, unarmed people, let alone taking revenge, it is difficult to save their lives."
Gu Congrong stared at Duan Yi's face and didn't say anything for a long time.
After a long time, he sighed, "No wonder that old guy Duan Wenchang gave birth to a waste snack. It turned out that the Feng Shui of the whole family was gathered in you alone."
"You, a woman in the boudoir, can see so much," Gu Congrong said, smiling self-deprecatingly, "It's ridiculous that I have been on the battlefield for decades and have never figured out these things. I just wishfully opened my chest and took out a heart."
"The emperor gradually became weak and the vassal states were divided. If this continues, the world will sooner or later be in chaos. Since the emperor was still a little prince without power, I have helped him and never had the same intention. Even when His Majesty wanted me to be named King Jiannan, I sternly rejected him."
"And in the court, I knelt down and asked Your Majesty to take back the decision to enthrone the king of another surname, and to make countless enemies in the court and the country."
Duan Yi looked at Gu Congrong, with tears in his eyes, but his eyes were full of anger. The night wind blew his clothes and made a bulge.
"This Jiedushi was originally just to deal with foreign enemies and facilitate the border areas to take charge of military power. But now the entire Great Zhou has been divided into Taoist Taos, and the Jiedushi who controls military power alone is more than forty."
"The old Jiedushi died. If his son was replaced by his own son as Jiedushi, it would be no different from the vassal state."
"I, the governor of Jiannan, are for the purpose of fighting against Tubo in the west and the people of Fushan in the south. After a war not long ago, I was seriously injured. Your uncle is simple in his mind, brave but not in a strategy. He is extremely wise and intelligent, but he is mediocre in martial arts."
"I think instead of not being able to defend their family business in the future and ending up dead. It is better to retreat to advance and become the first clarion call for breaking the deadlock. It is the only way to think that the relationship between the king and the minister is the only one who can do the same thing."
Gu Congrong said, rubbing his eyes with his big hands. His hands were very rough, with scars of varying degrees of depth and thick cocoons on his head.
"So, as Yi'er said, I gave the emperor a secret letter, intending to retire and return home, surrender the entire Jiannan, and tell the people of the world that the governors are not hereditary. All the kings under the world are the kings, and all the kings are the kings in the shores."
"In order to show my loyalty, I took advantage of the Empress Dowager's birthday to ask your uncle and cousin to send the birthday gift..."
Gu Congrong took a deep breath and avoided the terrifying night. "Yi'er is smart, and has a pair of good eyes that my grandfather didn't give birth to. You asked you to guess the one in front of you. The secret that the servants still don't know today is also pointed out by you. It's more related to Cui Zi."
"Dingzhou is in chaos. Cui Yu was born in Dingzhou. When the incident happened, Wang was killed by the thief. The old servant escaped overnight with his body, and the news leaked. Now Hebei Road is in chaos."
"Cui Yu favored Wang very much. After Cui Zig-gun went home to attend the funeral, he must have led Xuan Yingjun to go north to avenge his mother. When Jiangnan moves, will the other governors move..."
Gu Congrong looked at Duan Yi with some helplessness, "My Gu family suddenly had a mess, just a soft persimmon. Maybe someone would pinch it. I definitely wouldn't let Tubo take advantage of it, let alone let the people of Jiannan suffer. Mingrui, I have already arranged it."
"Although I want to teach you the Gu family's shooting skills, my grandfather will not force you."
"There are two ways to choose. First, I will send you to Mingrui to avoid disasters, and wait until the world is peaceful before coming out; second, if you learn shooting skills with me, if you really have a disaster, even if you fight for the life of my grandfather, you will definitely protect you."
Duan Yi looked at Gu Congrong quietly.
The desperate veteran generals I saw in the storybooks before, even if they sacrificed their lives, they wanted to be loyal to the emperor. She wondered, is there really such a person in the world?
However, Gu Congrong stood in front of her alive.
Most of these people are going to be heroic.
"I've already chosen a small matter. Why did my grandfather go back on his word? Another option has come up. Zhao Yi's opinion, Jiannan must be safe and sound in a short time."
Gu Congrong was stunned and spit out, "Why is this?"
Duan Yi shook her head, "I'm afraid my grandfather will beat me when she says it."
Gu Congrong was amused and crying, "I am so old, how could I hit you a little girl?"
Duan Yi smiled and said, "Then I'll say it. You are now an irritable and injured old lion. Anyone with a little brain will not directly hit your anger and slowly draw it."
"When your anger dissipates, only the sadness is left. The best time to take Jiannan straight."
