Northern Dynasties

Chapter 94
"Aye, why did you have to be patient just now! That old thief is so old that he can hardly walk, so what else can we do to sanction my family?"

On the way back, Zhao Yongguo still couldn't stop retching, thinking of the humiliation he had just suffered, his heart felt like a charcoal stove.

Zhao Guibai rolled his eyes at his son and snorted coldly: "If you hadn't acted recklessly and were timid before the situation, I would have come to the door to be humiliated like this? Then even if the Dongzhou boy is killed, so what! There is no decision, and there will be disasters later!"

"I, I really wanted to get rid of him quickly, but at the time I felt that his death was too hasty to vent his anger, and I wanted to press him for some things, so I confessed to capture him alive..."

After Zhao Yongguo heard this, he quickly lowered his head, and made an excuse again: "But I didn't expect him to be so cunning, and I didn't expect Daxingtai to have thought about it. Zhao Guang and others came back to tell me the secret. In remorse, last year when he conspired with Lord Changle to seize the water power, he should have done it.

Unexpectedly, in just a short time, he and Yuwen Sabao have become so close... But fortunately, he still doesn't know who will do it. "

Hearing this, Zhao Gui gave his son a whip on his head: "What is Daxingtai thinking? You don't know, but you have heard the truth! If Daxingtai thinks about it, he will send Zhang Wugong to visit the empress dowager Teacher? People don't know it yet, but you are smart!

This son dared to frame the minister before he entered the customs.You have the courage to kill, but you don't have the decisiveness to eliminate the danger. How much did the past teach you? "

"It's not me, it's Zhao Guang and the others who are timid... If I went with me, I would definitely not let him live! Since I did it once, I will do it again. Aye, let me be short-lived, and I will never let him live forever !"

Zhao Yongguo held his head and said bitterly, thinking of the scene just now, he felt sick again.

"He Ba Po Hu, he tried his best to recommend this son. Although he is dying, he is not afraid, but he is still alive when he gets his wish. Don't make any more schemes in a short time, wait for him to relax, and kill him with one blow. Of!"

Needless to say, Zhao Gui hated Li Tai in his heart, just thinking about the phrase "village righteous scum, leader of bandit army" makes him flustered with anger.

It's just that in the battle of Mangshan, he was indeed defeated and exhausted. Although Daxingtai didn't go into details, he himself was also vigilant and introspective.Otherwise, just based on Li Tai's letter, he would have rushed straight to some Huiying Zhongzhang to kill this son.

Zhao Gui only found out after the fact that his son sent an ambush to the village and was about to succeed but let him go, and he couldn't vent his resentment.

This visit is also to see how deep the bond between He Basheng and this son is, and if he makes a move again, will He Basheng give up his life to protect him.But seeing He Basheng's attitude of treating him like a nephew, Zhao Gui also felt that this matter has become a bit tricky, and it may not be easy to start in the short term.

People who are about to die have nothing to worry about, and they really have no scruples when they go crazy.Even if he succeeds and there is no proof of death, if He Basheng insists that he did it and attacks him, Dugu Xin and others will not stand idly by even if it is only for this last wish.

After pondering for a while, he said again: "Your old Tai Tuo is friendly, and you often visit and spy on them recently. If they have any words or deeds that are out of order, first write them down."

"Didn't Aye say that Daxingtai has no thoughts?"

After Zhao Yongguo heard the words, he asked curiously.

Zhao Gui subconsciously waved his whip again, but seeing the boy was frightened and blocked, he suppressed himself and said in a deep voice: "Daxingtai will not do things that hinder the righteousness, this is his generosity and tolerance, but within the morals of the world Those involved will not be suspicious and defensive? Under the disturbance of public opinion, the two sons can be safe, but the shadow of this family will no longer favor other people!"

Zhao Yongguo thought for a while after hearing this, and finally understood what his father meant. After all, the second son of the old Taifu is the real heir of the He Ba family.If the two sons were in a dire situation, even if He Basheng was still dying, he would not exert too much force elsewhere, and Li Tai would naturally have no protection.

"What's more, this son has been in the village for a short time, but he has managed a strong business in the village. The grand master is friendly with him, and can he help each other without envoys? The two sons are not like to push things lightly, and they can endure their own food and silk to pour other heroes ?”

Mr. Zhao Gui is old and mature, and after a walk in the countryside, many ideas have been born in his mind to concoct that boy.

He Basheng's life is not long, Gao Zhongmi is alone, some Huijun family members, Cui Qian and other vain guests, even if this kid manages a little bit of power in the village, as long as he is backed up, he can easily be destroyed.

After seeing off Zhao Gui and his son, Li Tai returned to the villa, and He Basheng, who had just laid down on the couch, grinned at him: "Calm down?"

Li Tai smiled wryly, and sighed, "After all, it's fun to just kill him!"

He Basheng smiled even more when he heard this, and said seriously after a while: "Today's humiliation is not just to vent your anger, you have also seen Zhao Gui's patience. Is he younger than you, or weaker than you?" The world is tricky, sometimes, no matter how unwilling it is, it is necessary to swallow your breath.

Not to mention Zhao Gui, even... well, in short, remember, when things are in danger, the most important thing is to breathe.But if it's not about dividing life and death, the most tiring thing is a breath of energy. "

Hearing this, Li Tai nodded with deep sympathy. Didn't Zhao Gui of the later generation just couldn't hold back his anger, causing the whole family to suffer?
But seeing Zhao Gui and his son today, Li Tai remembered that Zhao Gui should not be underestimated right now, at least before Yu Wentai had a cordial meeting with Gao Shenwu, it would be quite difficult to completely kill Zhao Gui's family.

Zhao Gui's family only got two of the scarce resources of daughters in Yuwentai's family.The eldest son, Zhao Yongguo, and the second son, Zhao Yongren, all married daughters of Yuwentai's family.From the point of view of the in-law relationship alone, it really favors the Western Dynasty. Yu Wentai is really kind to Zhao Gui, who supports Yuan Cong.

Of course, at present, apart from the princess of the Yuan family who married with a baby bottle, the daughters of the Yuwentai family are still raised in deep boudoirs and have not been married to the military leaders of Beizhen on a large scale.

Thinking of this, Li Tai's heart couldn't help but think of the conversation between his cousin Cui Qian and him, and he began to consider the possibility of cutting off his husband.Although it is very slim, it is not a crime to think about it.

If he wanted to cut him off, he obviously couldn't do it in his current state. Why should he compete with others' humerus members and powerful military leaders when he is idle in the countryside?
At least he had to work in Daxingtai, Yu Wentai probably saw that the young man was handsome and energetic, so he really didn't want him to go to another house as a guest.One day when I got off work late and stayed home for a meal, wouldn't the relationship come here?

Thinking of this, Li Tai sighed again, he is ambitious, full of intelligence, and dedicated to farming for the country.But life always forces people to think about eating soft food, the key thing is to think about it and it's really enjoyable.

Even if he can't marry Yuwen's daughter in the end, Li Tai feels that he has to be an arsonist, so that Yuwentai's daughters will see their husband when they get married in the future, and say with emotion: "A guest, there is Li Lang early, and Li Lang at night." Lang, rich and handsome, makes people unforgettable, but there is Lang X in the world!"

It's okay to think wildly, but you still have to do things step by step, especially the personnel that can be influenced and controlled at the moment, this is his real base.

One day in the first ten days of April, wealthy households from Zuojin Township gathered again in Shangyuan Village, not to discuss the matter of the canal, but to participate in a small ceremony.

Li Tai had the idea of ​​setting up a rural school before, and he also sent a message to the villagers. The villagers responded enthusiastically to this, especially those whose children were about to grow up, they frequently asked when the school would start.

After less than half a month of preparation, the framework of the village school was set up. Zhuangli school buildings were all ready-made, and the teachers were Li Zhusheng and other tribal elders, plus several literati in He Basheng's trilogy.

When the school started for the first time, Li Tai selected [-] students to enroll, mainly the sons and daughters of township elites over the age of thirteen and under the age of twenty.

It's not that he doesn't want to take care of ordinary households in the village, but adults or half adults at this age are already considered important labor force in rural households.Even if Li Tai is willing to educate, it will be difficult for them to idle their labor in the dormitory.

On the first day of school, the township tyrants whose children are entering school from nearby drove to Shangyuan, and each offered a gift of confinement.And those students were gathered in the school grounds of the academy, each put on a slightly rough linen robe, and stood in a line against the scorching early summer sun that was getting scorching hot.

Li Tai sat under the pergola on the side of the school grounds, smiled and said to those township tyrants: "Although the sages studied, there is no distinction between teaching, but the teachings of the apprentices are still different. Although there are differences in endowment, hard work can make up for it." Clumsy. Therefore, if you teach the Tao, you must first cure your heart. If your heart is not sincere, everything will be idle!"

All the townspeople nodded after hearing the words, praising what Li Lang said was reasonable, only heavy corporal punishment could make these townsfolk behave like adults.

Therefore, under the joint PUA of the principal and parents, these students stood under the sun for nearly two hours before they were allowed to disband and enter the dormitory.

On the blackboard in the school dormitory, there were eight big characters written on the blackboard: "Respect the Dao, respect the elders, and be honest and open". Li Tai walked into the school again and ordered them to take turns to take the stage to express their views on this.

The students, who had been in the sun for more than three hours, were already very irritable. Seeing this boy who was no older than them, or even much younger standing on the stage bossing around, they inevitably became more resistant and turned a deaf ear to it.

Li Tai was not annoyed when he saw this, he turned around and walked out of the dormitory, waving his hands to signal those parents who were already gearing up outside the dormitory to go in and play freely.

Hearing the sound of corporal punishment and the screams of ghosts and wolves from the students in the school, Li Tai couldn't help feeling that family education is indeed an important part of school education!
Here he was sighing with emotion, when he raised his head, he saw a group of people walking towards him, the leader was Su Chuo, an important member of the platform.

"Li Langfan's homework is refreshing! It's the same with business affairs, and it's the same with academic research."

Su Chuo pointed at Li Tai from a distance and said with a smile, his admiration was beyond words: "In order to study, you must first cure your heart. If your heart is not sincere, everything will be idle. This is a good word, which makes people vigilant!"

Li Tai rushed up to meet him, looked him up and down, but muttered in his heart, why are you losing weight again?
