Aspirations for Nation and Beauty: Chapter 73: Strange
Speaking from the bottom of his heart, Gu Dengyun still admires this Cheng Dayou. After all, he was able to get ahead in the Taiping Army, and at this time he was trying to compete with the Taiping Sect headquarters, which is unique. Master Li’s initial approach was somewhat similar, but the other party underestimated the conservative landlords and nobles in these empires. A person who started from the Taiping religion could never get their inner approval. They can obey you and support you on the surface. You, but deep down in his heart, he will also consider how to overthrow you when the time is right. He is already on the wrong team innately.
Gu Dengyun did not fully believe the information sent from below. He did not dare to make light judgments on such a complicated and important issue, and Mr. Li also clearly stated in his letter that he was worried about the other party and the interior of the empire. Some forces in the Central Plains are mixed together, so this guy can take advantage of the situation to bleach himself, which will bring many variables to the Central Plains war situation, and his way into the Central Plains may also add many episodes. In order to thoroughly understand the specific real situation of Jiujiang, Gu Dengyun also sneaked into Jiujiang himself to get a glimpse of the real situation in Jiujiang's urban and rural areas.
Just when Gu Dengyun was in a daze, the conversations of the men on the opposite side gradually attracted Gu Dengyun's attention.
"Old Feng, what's the matter? You don't seem happy?" The big man in linen asked in a rough voice, the pungent smell of sweat, even two tables away, Gu Dengyun could easily smell it.
"Can you be happy? The old dog has come back. I thought I would be able to pay off the rent for a season or two. I didn't expect the old dog to come back, but it got worse. Not only did I have to make up for the previous season, but it also increased by half , This day is really **** impossible.” The decadent man named Lao Feng opened his thin chest and smiled wryly, “I thought I could take advantage of it, but I didn’t expect it to be so long, the sky has changed again, it seems that burning incense There is less money for worshiping Buddha sesame oil, so let us be happy for nothing."
"What can I do? Those people in the city don't go to the countryside very much. They stay in the city all day and don't see much movement. It seems that they are also a group of people who have nothing to eat." The big man in sackcloth continued In other words, some red eyes blinked, and his tongue was a little stiff, "People from Li Dahu's family came back yesterday, and they are also calling all households to ask to hand in the last season together after autumn. Dick, I **** me off, and I will do the same as the north."
"Zhu Er, you drank too much." Hearing the other party's words getting more and more out of line, the man named Lao Feng was a little nervous, although most of the rural shops in this country are timid passing business travelers, and there is They are some local villagers in the mountains, but this sentence from the mouth of the misfortune is a practical old saying, "Keep your voice down, Zhou Dahu, Zhuangzi Li, just hanged two people yesterday, saying that he ran to Huanggang to avoid the limelight." At that time, the two tenants ran to his house and robbed him of his belongings, alas, what a pity to leave orphans and widows behind!"
"It's not the same over there. Now that those big households have the support of those people in the city, they are even more powerful. Isn't our Wu big household saying that no matter how the world changes, those who should enjoy happiness should still enjoy happiness, and those who should suffer poor should still enjoy it." Suffering from poverty. That is a warning to us not to spoil our minds." The old Feng also felt a little bit emotional, changing back and forth, but still the same, or even worse.
"Come on, let's not talk about these annoying things, let's drink." The big man in linen beckoned for Xiao Er to bring another jar of wine, filled it up, and drank it down in one gulp.
Quietly pondering the words of the two, it seems that Cheng Dayou really hooked up with these gentry in the countryside, and the gentry dared to openly hang those peasants who had misbehavior, which shows that these guys It must be guaranteed and supported by some party to be so presumptuous, otherwise, even if there is a tacit understanding, they would not dare to be so rampant. This is the case in the countryside, but what about in the city?
Gu Dengyun's forehead creased quietly. It seems that the situation is still a bit confusing. Is it true that, as the adults guessed, there will be a certain force taking advantage of this opportunity to get online with Cheng Dayou and invade Jiujiang?
Situ Biao was lying on Meiji behind him in boredom, silently resting his eyes. A maid knelt in front of him, carefully pinching the muscles of the leg joints for him. Lingering in Fang Li, lingering for a long time, cool and refreshing, it makes people feel refreshed, but it can't make Situ Biao feel better.
The news that came back from the palace is already blurred, even my own mother is forbidden to touch the father casually, the old nine is so powerful, he actually wants to control the father in his hands alone, hehe, the purpose is to fight It's a good idea, no matter what happens to the father, at least the government of the imperial capital is in his hands, and he can also coerce the emperor to order the princes, and let a group of brothers work hard for him. In the end, he came to pick the fruits of victory. Situ Biao doubted that this was a Conspiracy, but suffer from no evidence. Even my own mother can't get close, let alone other people. Did the emperor really die? Shaking his head, Situ Biao vetoed this idea. After going to court for several days, his father seemed to be in poor health again. He stopped going to court for a while, and only occasionally invited Lao Jiu into the palace to discuss matters. Now The imperial court became Lao Jiu's voice again, and even the eunuchs in the palace were the only eunuchs of his Lao Jiu's confidant eunuchs. The palace has become a monolith, and it seems that it will take some time to infiltrate and understand the inside story.
The news of my uncle has not yet come. The drastic changes in the situation in the Wuhu area have seriously affected my plan. Wuhu County was his base, but unexpectedly, he was infiltrated by the third brother, and his plan now became a castle in the air. This series of blows made Situ Biao even lose his confidence.
"Your Highness, Your Highness the Eighteenth Princess seeks to see you." A guard's announcement came from outside the door.
Situ Biao sat up with a bitter face. Alas, it was another puffer fish. It tasted delicious, but it was hard to swallow. The saying of eating puffer fish desperately is not bad at all, but if it is not handled well, it will really kill people. To see or not to see? What can I do if I see you? Promise each other? I'm afraid that my own foundation will be shaken. If I don't agree, I'm afraid that such a force will be lost in vain, and it will even be pushed to others. No, it is impossible to push it to others. The people on her side must have tested all parties. She didn't dare to accept the conditions proposed by the forces she represented, so she came to him. Situ Biao smiled a little lonely, who made him the weakest and least favored by others.
"Ask her to go to my study, and I'll be there right away." Standing up, Meiji behind her hurriedly arranged her clothes and finished the ligation. go.
"Sixth brother, how did you think about the suggestion that my little sister made last time?" There were only two people left in the study, and Situ Yuzhen, who was dressed in snow-white robes, looked extremely seductive, especially under the pair of willow eyebrows that looked like a The deep pool-like eyes are even more eager to look forward to, and the dimples on the jade dimples are even more fascinating when she smiles and sips. Although she is her own half-sister, Situ who claims to have experienced a lot in the flowers Biao was still in a tizzy.
"Eighteen sister, are you too impatient? This matter is not trivial, and you know the difficulty in it. You have to let me think about it for a while. I have endured it for hundreds of years, and I still care about it." This is only a year and a half?" Situ Biao calmed down for a while, and secretly cursed the little fox Meizi, who is as virtuous as your mother.
As soon as his face turned cold, Situ Yuzhen's face suddenly darkened, "Sixth brother, what you said is wrong, you just have to decide whether it will succeed or not. It has been three months, and you are always pushing back and forth like this. And he refused to give a letter of approval. You can afford it, but I can't afford it. Besides, I don't think Sixth Brother is having a good time right now. Could it be that Sixth Brother really cares about the wind and waves, which is better than strolling in the garden? If so In this way, then I would like to congratulate the sixth brother, you really have the potential to succeed the royal father. If the royal father did not choose you as the successor to the throne, it would be a mistake~IndoMTL.com~ I didn’t expect myself to shirk However, she was taught a lesson face to face by her with a gun and a stick, making Situ Biao once again experience the fierce wildfire of his younger sister, begging for mercy repeatedly, Situ Biao said with a wry smile: "Okay, okay, Eighteenth Sister, you just Don't make fun of your sixth brother. Since you know your current situation, you should be considerate of your sixth brother. It's not that I don't want to accept it. It's just that the impact of this matter is indeed too great. If it is known, sixth brother will suffer. Little, I'm afraid those people under you, Eighteenth Sister, will rarely get away. "
"Huh, if we don't pay, how can we get anything in return? I'm afraid it's a small matter for us to suffer, and it's a big problem if the sixth brother is broken. Who will leak it, you or me? Before your major event is accomplished, we will also I won't make excessive demands, but just ask for some minimum improvement, I think Sixth Brother should be able to do it with your influence." Situ Yuzhen pouted and smiled contemptuously, "Sixth Brother, I don't want to be with you. If you continue to grow mushrooms, I hope you can give me a letter of approval. If not, I will turn around and leave, my little sister. I will never come to pester you, Brother Six. You can take care of your big business with peace of mind, and we will treat it as if it never happened. Passed."
Scratching his head, Situ Biao was really embarrassed. To be honest, he hadn't made up his mind yet, but his uncle had made it clear that he would never agree to this matter. There will be more and more, and once the matter is leaked, I am afraid that Situ Biao will not only have no hope of competing for the throne, but it will even be difficult to maintain his current status. But if he can't compete for the throne, can he keep his current position? To be An Le Gong for a lifetime, or to be a fatuous fool for the rest of his life? This doesn't seem to be what I want, but what my uncle said is also very reasonable. Once an alliance is formed, the benefits will be great, but the negative effects will be even greater. This is really not a good decision.
