The first thousand two hundred and forty-four chapters try anyway
After Li Changze left the small teahouse, he looked at the vast snow fields around him. Although he was slapped in the face, his mood suddenly became wider.
He looked back at the huts, and suddenly remembered that it was God's will.
When he was a child, he had heard many stories about the uprising of Emperor Taizu of Daning's thatched hut. At that time, a hero who Taizu followed was defeated and died. Emperor Taizu and his sworn brothers hid in the abandoned thatched hut. At that time, Emperor Taizu's sworn brother Tang Pi said that the Chu court was unrighteous, so the world opposed Chu. Then he found that the rebel army was not righteous. If we resisted the rebel army again, where should we go?
At that time, Emperor Taizu pondered for a long time, and then said that there were always people who were right.
Tang Pidian asked Emperor Taizu, why isn’t this correct person you?
Emperor Taizu was born in a cold and did not think about this problem. At that time, he just wanted to be the right-hand man of the great hero he admired and assist the great hero in creating a new world.
But later, when the great hero who had always made Emperor Taizu feel that he should be admired, sacrificed so many brothers' lives in order to be on the throne, carried the infamous and sent hundreds of thousands of people to hell, he was confused.
Even when he was confused, he did not think about fighting for the world himself. It was not until another incident that caused Emperor Taizu to completely change his views that happened. Instead of giving this world to you, I might as well take it myself.
But I have to say that Tang Pi's words against Taizu in that hut had a great influence, so many famous scholars later thought that it was the beginning of the birth of Daning after re-discussing the saccharification between Emperor Taizu and Tang Pid.
So that hut talk was also called the hut uprising.
At this moment, Li Changze, who came out of three thatched huts, felt that he had the mood of Emperor Taizu at the time. Of course, he didn't think that Uncle Fourth was a rival to Tang Pi. He didn't believe that Uncle Fourth could assist Emperor Taizu like Tang Pid.
However, the Fourth Uncle is indeed the one he cannot leave now. How powerful is the Tongchuanghuihui? Although on the surface, no one in the court holds real power, they have almost unparalleled wealth that adds up.
Wealth is not superficial.
Wealth is never shallow.
Superficial people may think that wealth is just an accessory to power, and believe that status is above wealth, and this manifestation is just a means of wealth hiding its own fangs. Wealth can make power stand on the stage, and it grinned behind it.
imperial power
The supreme power in this world is most of the time unrelated to wealth.
Li Changze knew very well what it meant to have endless wealth support. Everything he had once had was lost. Everything his mother worked hard to manage, including the business he maintained secretly, and a large number of dead soldiers, had all disappeared.
But if you can get the support of the co-survival society, then why worry about not having any dead soldiers? Under absolute wealth, you can arm many people.
The people in the Daning court were not as noble as they looked. People were creatures that would follow the trend or follow the crowd. There were not many truly noble people.
For example, Dou Huainan.
Li Changze urged his horse forward while thinking about Dou Huainan's ridiculous guy. Dou Huainan thought he had deceived him and gained his trust. So when Li Changze handed Dou Huainan two big and perfect Dongzhus, Dou Huainan took it without thinking, but why couldn't Li Changze see Dou Huainan's thoughts?
There is light in the eyes of a greedy person, but Dou Huainan did not have that kind of light when he saw the two Dongzhus. He was a truly noble person, so Li Changze sometimes wanted to laugh. His father arranged such a person to approach him, but in fact, it was not appropriate to choose people.
On the contrary, Li Changze even thought that even if his father asked someone like Chen Leng to approach him, it would be better than arranging Dou Huainan to come. At least Chen Leng is really greedy for money, and a greedy person always has weaknesses.
Dou Huainan's aloofness is not manifested, but in his heart.
Li Changze didn't stop in his mind for a moment. He needed to think about how to take each step next. Dou Huainan was a double-edged sword by his side. If Dou Huainan was not used well, his father would be able to know his every move. If Dou Huainan was used well, his father would make mistakes in his judgment.
Shortly after he left the hut, the owner of Tongcunhui stepped out of the hut. He opened his arms and the snowflakes floating in the sky fell on him. He stood like this for a long time, and no one knew what he had thought of at this moment.
"Owner, where are we going next?"
A man wearing a white cloak came over and asked. The white cloak on their bodies blended into the snow. Looking from a distance, it was not easy to find that there were a few people standing here.
"Back to Chang'an."
The boss curled his lips: "Do you know where Chang'an is?"
His subordinates replied: "It is the capital of Daning."
"To be precise, it is the capital of rights."
The boss waved: "Horse."
The subordinates quickly led the war horse over, and the boss turned over and said, "Split a group of people and kill the two court lieutenants who followed Li Changze."
One of the men was a little surprised: "Master, if the two court lieutenants were killed, wouldn't it be exposed?"
"Who was exposed?"
The boss smiled and said, "Of course we are not exposed."
He shook the reins of the horse: "Do as I said, and go back to Chang'an as soon as possible after killing people. There are still many things waiting for us to do in Chang'an City."
As soon as he finished speaking, several fast horses were racing in the distance, obviously coming towards them. The owner seemed to recognize who those people were, so he was unsuspecting.
The men rode their horses in front of the boss, sat on the horse's back and clasped their fists. One of them said to the boss: "Master, I just received the news that something happened to the prince."
The owner's face, which was originally smiling, solidified, colder than ice and snow.
Chang'an City.
Qingyi Tower.
Han Huanzhi walked into the closed room on the second floor with a teapot in his left hand and held a tea cup in his right hand. When he pushed open the door, the person hanging on the wall was already numb and didn't even look at him.
However, this reaction made Han Huanzhi feel a little happy. A person's numbness does not necessarily mean that he has aspirations to die. Perhaps he has collapsed or perhaps it is an acceptance.
“It’s so wasteful.”
Han Huanzhi sighed regretfully at the steamed buns and buns on the ground. Every time he came, he would bring a warm steamed bun or a fragrant meat bun, but he would throw it on the ground and step it on it again. This seemed to have become a must-have item.
But every time when Xu Shaoyan felt that he was about to die, a guy named Xiao Qingyi Liu would come in and pour some rice soup into his mouth very roughly, and he could survive again.
Xu Shaoyan had been locked up for so long, and he just hoped that he could die sooner.
Han Huanzhi put down the teapot and tea cup, found a broom to sweep the things on the ground.
This is winter, and if it is summer, the smell in the house may be so bad.
"I know you are a warrior. I think it's wrong for me torture you in that way before. I regret it. Look at the food, how much has it been wasted in the past few months."
Han Huanzhi sighed again: "I thought I was the Du Tingwei who had no unsolvable cases, and the Gui Jianchou who would obediently speak in my hands."
He said while sweeping the floor, "It was you who let me know that I am not omnipotent, and I should also thank you for letting me believe that there are really people in this world who are so determined and will not be destroyed or defeated by any means."
Han Huanzhi glanced at Xu Shaoyan: "You deserve my admiration."
Xu Shaoyan was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't expect Han Huanzhi to say this this time, so he was a little confused, but he was too lazy to speak. He just glanced at Han Huanzhi and lowered his head again.
He is indeed very weak. It is really not easy to live in one breath after so many days. Sometimes I think about how good it would be to die, so why bother with this ghost every day?
"Xu Shaoyan."
Han Huanzhi swept the floor clean and sat down and said, "I came here this time to discuss something with you. I am not asking you what you are, but just discussing it."
He paused and looked at Xu Shaoyan's eyes: "I just said that I admire your personality very much. Before this, I always thought that as long as people who commit crimes have weaknesses, they can be defeated by having weaknesses. But unfortunately, you destroyed my perception, so what I want to discuss with you is."
He took a breath and continued, "I have just ordered someone to prepare a banquet. Someone will put you down later. I also have someone boil a large basin of hot water. You can take a shower and change your clothes first, have a good meal, and then we will send you away decently."
"deliver"
Xu Shaoyan looked at Han Huanzhi with some fear: "What do you mean by sending him off?"
Han Huanzhi said seriously: "Give you the most basic respect. I have tried it on you countless times to get the answers I want, but all of them have failed. I have used various methods, such as inciting questions, torture, and even the later hunger, and the intentional ignoring you. These have failed. I admit that you are a warrior and a real man. I don't want to try it anymore. I plan to try it out."
He stood up and said, "This pot of tea is for you. There is medicine in the tea, but it will not smell too big or too bad. After you have enough wine and food, you will leave after you have a cup of tea. We will give you decentness and will bury you well."
Xu Shaoyan immediately shook his head: "No, Lord Han, try again, you can try again, what if it's done?"
Han Huanzhi said: "I won't try anymore, I'm tired."
Xu Shaoyan: "Don't be tired! You can do it, try again!"
Han Huanzhi: "This"
Xu Shaoyan: "At least you can try it, ask whatever you want?"
