Chapter 2474: Children from Beijing enter official school
West of Jiankang City, on the top of Mufu Mountain.
Liu Yi stood with his hands behind his hands, looking at the river flowing eastward from the northwest, turning a corner, and sighed softly: "So many past events, like this rolling river, are gone forever.
Yanda, when I took you to climb the Shogunate Mountain for the first time, I remember you said that if you don’t work hard when you are young, you may not even have the courage to climb mountains and watch rivers when you are old. That day, I knew
, you will be my lifelong partner."
Meng Chang smiled slightly. There were only two of them on the top of the mountain. The nearest guards were stationed a hundred steps away from the mountain to ensure that no one could hear their conversation. He also watched the river go east and murmured:
"We climbed up this mountain step by step. I don't know how many people have become stepping stones for us to get here. I don't know what you think. Anyway, once I get up, I won't go down again. It feels like standing here and looking at the scenery.
,very nice."
Liu Yi laughed: "If we hold the organized meetings here in the future, wouldn't it be much better than that stuffy and breathless underground place? Do you agree or not?"
Meng Chang smiled and shook his head: "It's not time to be honest yet. Unless you bring the slaves in now."
Liu Yi's face changed slightly and his brows furrowed: "It's impossible. I don't think you're joking when you say it, because it's not funny at all. It's not like you don't know about our current relationship with the slaves."
Meng Chang curled up his lips: "Anyway, we have been brothers for so many years. Even if he is a bit stubborn, it is for the Northern Expedition. He does not allow anyone to interfere with this matter. This time, Liu Tingyun and Tao
Yuan Ming went too far, don't blame Jinu for being so cruel. If you were in his position, I'm afraid you wouldn't even have the chance to keep Liu Tingyun."
Liu Yi said with a gloomy face: "Only I can handle my woman. This is the bottom line. What I can't tolerate most about Liu Yu this time is not that he refuses to give me Jiangbei or that he refuses to give in to power, but that he actually attempts to
Forcing me to hand over or get rid of Liu Tingyun, damn grandma, when did I force him to do this to Murong Lan?"
Meng Chang sighed: "At least Murong Lan did not affect his Northern Expedition plan, but Liu Tingyun killed this little brother Xie Tingyun. Xi Le, we are the Beijing Eighth Party after all, and our brothers are the real ones.
, being led by the nose by people from aristocratic families, and in the end Jingba turned against each other, which was not good for anyone. It was hard for me to say these words in front of Yu Yue and Xu Xianzhi during the meeting within the mafia, but now, I must tell you
speak."
Liu Yi frowned slightly, then smiled, holding Meng Chang's hand: "You are the only one who dares to say these things to me now. It doesn't matter. My old friend, I dragged you into the mafia just because I don't want to."
To give the children of these aristocratic families complete control, you must have real brothers. You see, I didn’t even recruit my own brothers, but I found you because you have been my real right-hand man and brother for so many years. Also.
Only from you can I get the truth. However, what is strange to me is that when Liu Laozhi asked me to kill Liu Yu, I could not be cruel for a moment, so I only discussed it with you alone. You agreed with me.
Why do you want to persuade me to stop this time?"
Meng Chang curled up his lips: "At this time, at that time, Liu Laozhi himself was afraid of Liu Yu's reputation, and was confused by my predecessor in the mafia, Sima Shangzhi, so he asked you to kill Liu Yu. This is not only
It's an order, but it's also a temptation. If you refuse, Liu Laozhi may be killed first, so agreeing to the assassination is a life-saving move. Even if the assassination fails, the responsibility can be passed on to Liu Laozhi and Sima.
In Shang Zhi's case, a slave attaches great importance to friendship. If you can't bear the brothers in Beifu really killing each other, you will be let go in the end. Therefore, if the assassination at that time was successful, it would be of great benefit, and if it failed, you wouldn't be desperate. It had to be done."
"But this time it's different. Both you and Jinu already hold great power and have many troops. However, the Beifu army is still led by Jinu. This cannot be reversed by your victory in the Western Expedition. I know you want to
You can use Jiangbei's immigration plan to make friends with aristocratic families, but this will disrupt Jinu's plan for the Northern Expedition. In the end, it's better for you to give in. After all, if the Northern Expedition starts, Jinu will not be able to solve everything independently. When he attacked Nanyan, for
I will make sure that nothing happens at the rear and I will make concessions to you on many things. At this time, it is time to negotiate terms with him."
Liu Yi gritted his teeth: "But the more battles he wins, the stronger his power will become, and the gap between me and him will also become wider and wider. This time in the Western Expedition, my subordinates have expanded to 50,000 soldiers and horses, which is enough
Controlling two big states, if I have the opportunity to conquer Southern Yan in the north, as long as I win, then there will be no problem with an army of 100,000."
Meng Chang smiled slightly: "Nan Yan is not an easy bone to chew. They have pretended to be invincible in armor and cavalry for decades. Even if they are sent as slaves, they may not be able to break it in one fell swoop. If you occupy Jiangbei, you will not really go to the Northern Expedition.
, that will only lose popularity. Moreover, there are many ways to make friends with aristocratic families, and it does not necessarily have to be through Jiangbei immigration."
Liu Yi's heart suddenly moved: "What good idea do you have?"
Meng Chang's eyes flashed coldly: "The world has changed. The once high-ranking families have lost their power, and they have also lost the ability to march and fight. I have been observing the children of the major families for a while, and I found that most of them
Most people have taken the medicine to the point where they are like disabled people and cannot even walk normally for more than an hour. Such people are useless. At most, they can only stay in the back, sit still, and do some searching.
Excerpting sentences, compiling history books, etc."
Liu Yi laughed: "I heard that the slaves have been training them hard recently. Dozens of them fainted. In order to fear their lives, and to appease the children of the family, they even sent Xie Hui, Zhang Shao and
Fu Liang and these capable helpers have taken the lead in military training. In fact, if they follow me, they don't need to endure so much hardship. I will share the military merits with them and satisfy them."
Meng Chang shook his head: "Your method is only a temporary measure and cannot cure the root cause. Moreover, I advise you to use this method sparingly. On this point, Jinu can see further and more accurately than you. Instead of putting in more effort to form a good family,
Gaomen, why not think about how to satisfy the new generation of Beifu soldiers."
Liu Yi frowned: "But running a country always requires literary talents. Brothers Beifu, fighting is no problem, but when it comes to running a country and managing finances..."
Meng Chang sighed: "From now on, we have to follow the rules. Military merit will lead to knighthood. Those who are not knights will not be officials. If the title is reduced, then everyone is the same. Do we still need to divide civil and military affairs?"
