The desperate illiterate made Master Ben and others who were a little angry laugh.
Zhang Liang was still 'kind' and replied with a warm smile:
"The so-called overall view is that as a hero, you should sit in the rear and not take risks easily."
"But now that I've become stronger, I won't get into trouble easily, so I should take the lead." Tianming retorted, squinting his neck.
"You have indeed become stronger, but you are not strong enough yet." Zhang Liang responded to him in a very practical way, "The former giant of the Mo family was stronger than you, but he still died under the Six Souls Horror Curse because of his carelessness.
It's...when the Mo family needs it most."
These words were picking on the Mo family's wounds. Master Ban and others all looked a bit gloomy, but no one was dissatisfied with Zhang Liang because of this.
Because he was telling the truth, and because he was using this to warn their current boss.
Tianming also fell into silence, but he did not give in, but continued to respond:
"That's because the Yin-Yang family's six-soul terror curse restrains the Mohist mind, but we won't run into the Yin-Yang family this time, right?"
It can be seen from this that Tianming's brain has really become more active.
Although he still doesn’t understand what he doesn’t understand, what he knows can already be used flexibly.
"That's right." Faced with Tianming's insistence, Zhang Liang nodded, and then the smile on his face suddenly disappeared, and he reminded him in a cold voice, "But what you have to face is someone who is far more terrifying than all the Yin Yang family combined.
enemy."
"...Are you talking about Uncle Gu?" Tianming asked.
"certainly."
"He won't hurt me."
Zhang Liang shook his head, "That's because you didn't stand on the opposite side of him."
"After all, he is the imperial advisor of the empire. If you want to touch Ying Zheng, he will never allow it."
"Then I don't think Uncle Gu will hurt me." Tianming firmly insisted on his opinion.
He was never one to be easily swayed.
Tianming has his own standards, or feelings, for judging good and evil, so even if he knew Gu Xun's identity and knew that Gu Xun and Wei Zhuang were good friends, he never considered him a bad person or his enemy.
For most people, stance is very important, so important that it can even outweigh everything else.
But for 'Xia', sticking to the so-called position is undoubtedly wrong and a failure.
This posture of Tianming made Master Ban and others both happy and troubled, but as the guardian, Ge Nie just watched silently and did not express any opinions.
He can correct Tianming's mistakes, but he cannot force the other party's decision.
Faced with such a stubborn Tian Ming, even Zhang Liang had to admit... it probably doesn't make sense to be reasonable.
Then I can only talk about what he is better at.
He smiled again, "Then the question returns to the topic at the beginning - the overall situation."
"Why do you insist on going to Mount Tai?"
"Of course I am fulfilling my responsibility as a giant of the Mohist family, taking the lead and protecting everyone!" Tianming replied solemnly without hesitation.
Zhang Liang nodded, instead of questioning Tianming's ability, he instead said:
"You mentioned taking the lead because you feel that as a giant, you have the responsibility and obligation to charge forward and stand in front of all the members of the Mohist family."
"Right?"
Tianming thought for a while and nodded.
There is nothing wrong with this.
Zhang Liang's smile widened, and there was nothing wrong with him:
"But this is actually what a pioneer should do, not what a giant should do."
"How could it be possible? The giant boss obviously..." Tian Ming subconsciously wanted to refute.
Zhang Liang interrupted before him, "I know what you want to say, but it is when the Mo family is in crisis. As a powerful man, His Highness Prince Dan of Yan must of course stay in front of everyone."
"But the situation is different now. The Mo family's situation is quite stable."
"Going to Mount Tai is a dangerous mission. It is an act of proactive attack rather than passive defense."
"At this time, as the leader of the Mohist family, you must ensure the stability of the overall situation."
Tianming, who was a little dizzy from Zhang Liang's barrage of words, thought for a moment and asked, "How can I ensure the stability of the overall situation?"
"It's very simple. Make sure that the Mo family will not change another tycoon at this time."
"The stability of the Mohist family is the stability of the overall situation. This is true for any organization, so assassinating Ying Zheng is so important."
"..." Tianming fell into silence.
According to Zhang Liang, it was right for him to stay in Songhai and ensure his own safety.
Tianming also thinks what he said makes sense.
But what he really wanted to do in his heart was to go to Mount Tai himself.
There was a conflict between what he wanted to do and what was right, which made Tianming very confused.
He drooped his head and said sadly, "This... I'll think about it."
After saying that, he turned around and left, emo alone.
Tao Zhi came close to Zhang Liang and bumped his arm with a smile, "You still have something to do with me, Zifang!"
Zhang Liang smiled warmly and maintained his gentlemanly demeanor and said, "Tian Ming is just passionate and wants to help everyone."
Master Ben shook his head helplessly and sighed, "We all know that Tianming means well, but..."
Manpower is sometimes scarce, and many times they have to take the overall situation into consideration.
It was related to Tianming, a giant of the Mohist family. Unlike Zhang Liang and Tianming, who had a personal relationship, Xiaoyaozi could not express his opinion, so he said to everyone:
"I'll go see him."
He had said before that he wanted to check on Tianming's condition. Master Ban and others didn't say anything. They nodded and watched him leave with Tianming.
After the incident at dawn, Master Ban looked at Zhang Liang and returned to the topic:
"Zifang, over there at Little Shengxian Manor, can we help you in any way?"
The smile on Zhang Liang's face faded a little, and he shook his head and replied, "I'm afraid no one can help with Confucianism's troubles."
As time goes by, the methods of snares gradually emerge.
Similar to the situation of the peasant family, this situation of the Confucian family is also a conspiracy.
The six peasant clans all want to be the leader of heroes, but there can only be one leader, so they must fight.
Confucianism is similar now.
Interests are limited, but relatively speaking there are many more people, and everyone wants to grab as much benefit as possible.
As for the consequences...if the knife doesn't hit the head, how many people will care?
What's even more amazing is that the Nong family originally regarded itself as the so-called largest gang in the world, with hundreds of thousands of disciples, and had no taboos at all, so it did not consider the external situation at all when fighting among itself.
Confucianism, on the other hand, seems to be immersed in the so-called reputation as the world's most famous school and cannot extricate itself. It feels that no matter how much trouble it makes, it will not cause real trouble.
This moment is exactly like that moment.
However, the situations of the two families are not exactly the same. For example... there are far more idiots in the Confucian family than in the peasant family.
After all, the latter is just a fight between the six hall masters, and all six of them are idiots, only in the single digits.
Confucianism is different, any kind of idiot can speak.
This kind of game where pig teammates are overwhelming, not to mention Zhang Liang, even the resurrection of Kong Fuzi may not be able to lead it.
In this situation, if Xiaoshengxianzhuang wants to protect itself, it just shrinks its head and pretends not to know, hoping that it will not be affected. Otherwise, it will become active and actively approach the empire in order to cut off from the Confucian part.
.
Because of Gu Xun's suggestion, Fu Nian finally chose the latter.
He himself was actually very willing to move closer to the imperial power, but the ideas of Ying Zheng, the emperor, and Fu Nian's were really inconsistent.
Moreover, Ying Zheng also wanted to burn books... Fu Nian really couldn't bear it.
Hearing Zhang Liang's answer, Thief Zhi helplessly shook off the yellow hair on his forehead, spread his hands and said, "Looking at the current situation, it seems that we can't do anything about Mount Tai's Feng Chan, we can only watch helplessly!?"
Zhang Liang couldn't help but fell into silence. After a long time, he slowly said, "It is really difficult for forces outside the empire to really do anything about this matter."
Master Ban and others looked at each other, not knowing what to say.
………………
Eastern patrol team.
On the flat, wide and straight road built by the empire, a mighty convoy that stretches for an unknown length of time is driving slowly.
The vast majority of the carriages in this convoy are machine-made carriages specially made by the Gongshu family. They have the best performance in all aspects, but they are running very slowly at this time.
There were at least twenty or thirty large carriages in the convoy, and it would be impossible for them to run, otherwise something would easily happen.
In one of the carriages, Wang Li, who had changed into regular clothes, was sitting inside. Sitting opposite him was a man who looked similar to him, but was significantly older, about fifty years old.
No need to think about it, this person is naturally Wang Li's father, Wang Ben, the Tongwu Marquis with great military exploits in the empire.
Although he is older, it can be seen that he was a tall and burly man when he was young.
After Wang Li came to join the convoy, Ying Zheng did not directly punish him, but left him temporarily.
It is said that we have to wait until Mount Tai is enshrined in Zen before we deal with it.
Then Wang Li was naturally arranged to share a table with his father... and a car.
It's hard to say how Wang Li felt before meeting his father, but just thinking about it, he probably felt more awkward than when he met Ying Zheng.
But no matter how shameless he was, he would eventually have to face his biological father.
However, Wang Ben didn't have much reaction to his son's big eyes for the Wang family, and he didn't mean to criticize Wang Li in any way.
He just calmly led his son to play chess.
Go.
In this era, all military masters are Go players.
Both father and son Wang Ben and Wang Li are also proficient in playing chess.
But it’s true that father and son haven’t played chess for a long time.
Wang Li was not sure what his father was thinking, so he could only sit down and play chess with him.
In what seemed to others to be an extremely awkward silence, Wang Ben, Wang Li and his son started a chess game.
Because his mind was not on chess, and because he could not beat his father, Wang Li's chess situation deteriorated at a rapid speed, and his defeat was almost certain in a short time.
Looking at Wang Li who was already defeated, Wang Ben finally spoke:
"You just suffered the loss of not paying attention. Why don't you pay attention now?"
"Father..." Wang Ben's voice was very soft, but it was like a thunder in Wang Li's ears. He was so shocked that he subconsciously wanted to explain something, but he didn't know what to say.
Wang Ben raised his eyes and glanced at his son, and said in a calm tone, "You just lost a battle, not your own father died."
After all, he is a soldier. Although Wang Ben's voice is not loud, the content is "hot" enough.
"I..." Wang Li couldn't help but blush when he heard his father's words, but after saying one word, he stopped again.
Wang Ben looked at his son with calm eyes, "If you lose a battle, you lose a battle. I have lost a battle, your grandfather has also lost a battle, and even Bai Qi, the arrogant Lord of Wu'an, also had the Battle of Handan. Why, you lost."
No?"
"Don't be arrogant when you win, and don't be discouraged when you lose. I don't expect you to do both, but you should at least do the same, right?"
"Father, it's my incompetence that has brought shame on the Wang family!" The more Wang Bi said, the redder Wang Li's face turned, and he finally blurted out this response.
Wang Ben's reaction to this was mediocre and he replied calmly, "The Wang family has no face. The whole world knows that your grandfather is a common man who begs for land and houses."
"It doesn't matter if you lose face. I just hope you don't lose your life."
"Father..." Wang Li muttered, not knowing how to respond to his father.
The main reason is that he doesn't understand what his father means by saying this.
Could it be a trap...
"You don't have to think too much." Wang Ben seemed to understand his son's thoughts and explained, "I'm just giving you a reminder. As for what you do and how you do it, that's your business. I won't interfere."
Wang Li looked serious and remained silent for a while before replying in a deep voice, "I just want to maintain the glory of the Wang family!"
"The glory of the Wang family..." Wang Ben repeated this sentence, with a smile of unknown meaning on his lips, and asked, "Isn't the glory of the Wang family enough?"
"Of course it's enough." Wang Li quickly replied.
He certainly couldn't say enough, otherwise he would be looking down on his own father and grandfather.
However, he also had his own persistence and added, "I just want to safeguard the glory of the Wang family and prevent other... other young people from stepping on the Wang family's head."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "No one except the emperor steps on the head of the Wang family." Wang Ben replied calmly.
Wang Li stopped talking.
This is not the first time that father and son have discussed this topic.
Apparently, an agreement was never reached.
Wang Li did not dare to disobey his father and was unwilling to give up his persistence, so he could only remain silent.
Wang Ben seemed to know that his son would react this way and didn't say anything more.
Just like what he said just now, he does not interfere with Wang Li's actions.
Wang Ben just calmly put away the chess pieces on the chessboard.
After Wang Li was silent for a while, he finally spoke again and asked about himself:
"What does His Majesty the Emperor... plan to do with me?"
Wang Ben gathered up the chess pieces and replied calmly, "I don't know, but if you use your brain, you should be able to guess it."
If Ying Zheng had planned to punish Wang Li severely, he would not have deliberately put it after he was enshrined in Mount Tai.
After all, I have just sacrificed to God, and he will never punish the sinner severely.
So I still punished you with three drinks, which is fine.
For Wang Li, there are only two possibilities.
Or, continue to lead the armor-piercing troops who have fought in hundreds of battles, but it will take time to train troops to replenish the establishment, which is equivalent to two years of idleness.
For ordinary people, idleness is a big problem, but for Wang Li, it is not a big deal.
Or, just send him directly to the north to serve as Meng Tian's deputy and control part of the northern army.
This arrangement is more beneficial to Wang Li, but he may not be happy with it.
Judging from his uncertain expression now, he probably thought of this.
Seeing him like this, Wang Ben said again, "If you lose, you have to admit it."
Wang Li's face became even more ugly, but Wang Ben didn't say anything else.
Wang Li is also several decades old, and a few words can't change anything.
As a father, he reminded me of all the things he needed to remind, and he couldn't control the rest...
Anyway, as long as his son is not crazy, he will not rebel, and as long as he does not rebel, the Wang family can always survive.
