The muscles on Xie Hun's face twitched, and he was speechless for a long time. After a quarter of an hour, he sighed: "My late father also said the same thing as you when he was here, saying that Liu Yu and the children of our family are not the same.

, there will eventually be a conflict, but he also said that because of the past friendship, Liu Yu will not really embarrass our Xie family."

Tao Qian shook his head: "There are no fathers and sons before power, let alone Liu Yulian and your Xie family. On the stage, his attitude was very clear. He wanted to take back all the privileges of the aristocratic family, including your manor in Wudi."

, the land and tenants are said to be taken back to the country, but in fact they are taken back to their Beifu Qiuba people, and they want these resources to be used for his Northern Expedition. Can you tolerate this? "

Xie Hun gritted his teeth: "Now our Xie family has nothing. My late father was defeated and died. The court and those high-ranking nobles in Jiankang have now put this debt on us, making it seem like our Xie family has lost it."

They lost their land and their slaves in Wu. Even for my late father’s funeral, not many people came to the door. These days, I have tasted all the hardships of this world. Even if Liu Yu takes away the land of Wu,

Everything, there’s nothing I can’t accept!”

Tao Qian sneered: "Then do you know why your father refused all outside help and insisted on guarding Kuaiji alone? Do you think he is really as arrogant and ignorant as those outsiders say?"

Xie Hun's expression changed and he said sternly: "Tao Yuanming, how can you be so disrespectful to my late father? I will never accept it, let alone tolerate it!"

Tao Qian shook his head: "Although these words come from my own mouth, I am just paraphrasing them. Now all the high-ranking families in Jiankang say this. Do you think that by blocking my mouth, you can block everyone else's mouth?"

Xie Hun closed his eyes in pain, and a stream of tears rolled down his face: "My father died fighting for the country's strength, and he will be criticized after his death. I, I'd rather die on the battlefield!"

Tao Qian sneered: "Death is the easiest thing. If the third young master doesn't want to live anymore, why not just hang yourself on the southeast tree in this small forest. Tao can lend you a belt and write a memorial for you. Tao Qian said two days ago

I just wrote a memorial poem for my little sister, and it is being recited in Jiankang City recently, so I think the Third Young Master must have heard about it."

Xie Hun opened his eyes and stamped his feet bitterly: "You sour scholar, you are still in the mood to amuse me at this time. You really pissed me off. I want you to go see your sister now!"

Tao Qian laughed: "This is the momentum and ruthlessness that the Third Young Master should have. In fact, you should know by now that your father asked you to return to the city at the last time in order to leave a successor for the Xie family after the defeat.

Man, he is a famous general. He always considers defeat before winning. Even earlier, he secretly asked Liu Muzhi to ask Liu Yu to go south for help. Otherwise, how could you meet Liu Yu who went south in Haiyan City?"

Xie Hun opened his mouth in surprise: "Is there such a thing? Why didn't my late father tell us?"

Tao Qian sighed: "Because it is a shameful thing to ask for help from outsiders, especially the Beifu Army and Liu Yu who drove him away personally, but for the sake of the overall situation of the Xie family, he can only bear such a loss of reputation.

It's not that your father doesn't know that he can't defend it alone, but once he asks for help, the land of Wu will no longer be unique to the family, so he can only do it reluctantly. If Tianshi Dao is allowed to let it go, he will rob all the counties south of Qiantang and Jiangnan.

, and retreating calmly will only put him under greater pressure. Maybe the court will find someone else to take his place. You should know by now that while your father is guarding Wu, the Yu family and the Wang family both want to come.

If they find out about this piece of fat, they will definitely replace your Xie family. In this battle, your father did not lose on the battlefield, but lost outside the battlefield."

Xie Hubei came from his heart, and he punched the big tree next to him hatefully. The snow fell from the treetops and spread all over him. His roar echoed in the forest: "

This hatred and hatred, I will repay you tenfold one day!"

Tao Qian said coldly: "It is never too late for a gentleman to take revenge in ten years, but these ten years are not for you to eat, sleep, play polo, and be a carefree wanderer. If you want to control power, control the land, control the population, and control the weapons, only

Only in this way can you have the capital to take revenge. Like Third Young Master, you can even give up the Xie family's century-old foundation in the southeast if you don't want it and give it away. I think you should put away your desire for revenge as soon as possible."

Xie Hun grabbed Tao Qian's hand and said sternly: "Teach me what I want to do!"

Tao Qian smiled slightly: "Only by restoring the glory of your Xie family and regaining the manor, land, and tenants in Wudi can we take revenge. Third Young Master, think about it. In the past, your Xie family was so powerful that no one could not please you. And

Why? Isn’t it just because you have great power? But where does this great power come from? It’s your family’s century-old foundation in Wudi. These are the source of your Xie family’s strength, how can you give it to others?”

Xie Huan gritted his teeth and his eyes were red: "But now these are gone. The world-famous generals like my late father have failed. It is even less possible for me to have the right to lead troops in battle. I cannot take back the eight counties of Wudi from the battlefield.

How can it be possible to restore the Xie family’s former glory?”

Tao Qian smiled and shook his head: "Even if the Third Young Master himself cannot lead the troops into battle for a while, he can still command the troops through someone he can trust. Back then, Mr. Xie Jia Gong, didn't you just promote and use Liu Laozhi and let him

He went to gather the refugees in Huaibei, formed the Beifu Army, and achieved great achievements. You seniors of the Xie family can do it, why can't you?"

Xie Hun was stunned for a moment, then sighed: "So our Xie family has been focusing on cultivating and supporting Liu Yu, but you said that he is not of the same mind as us. Over the years, no matter how we win over him, please him, and rescue him,

He doesn't appreciate it and insists on holding on to that whimsical idea that everyone is equal. I really don't know how his brain grew."

A strange smile flashed in Tao Qian's eyes: "Liu Yu is not the only person in the world who can command troops and fight. Just like the Beifu Army, Liu Laozhi betrayed your Xie family, and Liu Yu refused to cooperate.

But the generals of Beifu are not limited to these two Liu, there are others who also have their influence."

Xie Hun's spirit perked up and he quickly said: "What you are talking about is..."

Before he finished speaking, a cold laughter sounded from the snow beside him: "That's right, it's down there!"

Xie Huan turned his head and saw a burst of snowflakes flying. From the snow on one side, two figures stood up. The eyebrows of Liu Yi and Meng Chang were covered with snowflakes, but they could not hide their excitement.

, they all saluted and bowed to Xie Hun: "I am willing to do my best for the Third Young Master and the Xie family!"
