I am a soldier in the border army
Chapter 593: Killing the chicken to scare the monkey! Li Wenjing's insidiousness!
Chapter 593: Killing the chicken to scare the monkey! Li Wenjing's insidiousness!
The hardest thing for a person is to betray his own class.
Han Shao can act without scruples for his sense of mission, or ambition.
Because when he appeared in this world, he was like a floating duckweed in the mortal world, with few ties.
But Gongsun Du is different, he has it.
Even though he had been estranged from the Gongsun clan for many years after seeing through their corrupt nature, he was still a direct descendant of the Gongsun clan in Liaodong.
After the confrontation between the legitimate and illegitimate bloodlines that year, he became the contemporary leader of the Liaodong Gongsun clan.
Under the circumstances, how could he not plan and worry about the future of Gongsun of Liaodong?
Facing Gongsun Du's gaze falling on him, Han Shao did not have any intention of avoiding it, but looked back at him frankly.
He understood Gongsun Du's mood and thoughts at the moment.
If I put myself in Gongsun Du's shoes, I would definitely not be in a better situation.
The palms of the palms and the backs of the hands are all meat.
On one side is a blood relative, on the other side is the heir to the family business.
The former is the big family, and the latter is the small family.
When the interests of the two are at odds or even in conflict, he who is caught in the middle will inevitably be torn and suffer.
If there really comes a day when disaster strikes within the family, how cruel it would be for him?
"Father-in-law, there will never be an end to the number of kings, princes, generals and ministers in this world."
Hearing Han Shao's irrelevant answer, Gongsun Du frowned slightly, somewhat dissatisfied.
"Father just wants to ask you about your future attitude towards Gongsun Clan..."
Gongsun Du is, after all, a pure warrior who likes to be straightforward.
Han Shao was so hostile to the noble families in the world that he wanted to get rid of them as soon as possible.
He didn't ask why, nor did he want to know what Han Shao did. He just wanted to know Han Shao's attitude towards Gongsun of Liaodong.
But Han Shao had to go around in circles and analyze the matter clearly in front of Gongsun Du, so that he would not worry about it in the future, or even develop suspicion and ruin the friendship between father-in-law and son-in-law, which was obviously not related by blood but better than that of blood relatives.
So he ignored Gongsun Du's questioning and continued on his own.
"I want to exterminate all the noble families in the world, not to realize my long-cherished wish of equality for all living beings, or to make everyone like a dragon as Huang Tiandao said."
"It's just because the noble families are too greedy now. They have already reached the top and blocked all roads in this world, turning it into a pool of stagnant water. They want to drag this world to decay and sink with them, and eventually fall into eternal damnation."
Han Shao said this and slowly exhaled, his eyes firm and determined.
“So what I have to do is to break their tendons and bones, crush their flesh and bones, and return everything they have taken from all living beings to all living beings.”
"Rebuild a channel from bottom to top, connect the meridians of this world, and let the world gain endless vitality with the constantly growing new blood!"
"I would also like to use this as a warning to future high-ranking officials to always have a reverent heart towards the heavens, the earth, and all living things!"
Everyone is equal, which is complete bullshit, and even the most ridiculous lie in the world.
Han Shao never believed it, so he always sneered at Huang Tiandao's seemingly lofty statement "I only wish that all people in the world could be like dragons."
Classes cannot be eliminated.
The strong are destined to have a large amount of resources to support and strengthen themselves.
However, the vast majority of people in the world are actually ignorant due to the constraints of their nature, talents, etc.
If they are left to their own devices, they will only fall into chaotic self-destruction.
So what Han Shao had to do was to establish a new set of rules.
Restrict those who are powerful and in high positions and curb their greedy nature so that they do not take all the resources that should be spread among all living beings into their own arms.
Take it with all your might and use it like dirt and sand!
As for the vast majority of living beings, what he needs to do is to ensure that their path to progress is unobstructed.
We don’t require everyone to be as good as a dragon, but we must create a path for those with ambition and talent among them to become dragons!
In this way, this is a relatively healthy world full of vitality.
After hearing what Han Shao said, Gongsun Du looked stunned, and it was obvious that he had not yet fully digested the meaning of Han Shao's words.
Li Wenjing, who was silent at the side, had a pair of small eyes that were extremely bright.
For a moment, he even got a glimpse of the nature and future of humanity in this world from Han Shao's words.
The most important thing is that these are exactly in line with the principles he has always followed.
'Legalists rule the world! Legalists rule the world!'
Li Wenjing kept murmuring in her heart, her eyes becoming brighter and brighter.
He heard a hint of Legalism in Han Shao's words.
If he had not known very well that Han Shao had never practiced the Legalist classics, he would have almost thought that Han Shao had also inherited the Legalist tradition based on Han Shao's words.
But it was precisely because of this that he became even more excited.
Because doesn't this prove that -
"This is destiny!"
No wonder he found Han Shao very pleasing to his eyes since the first time he saw him.
No wonder... my teacher made me wait in this barren border of Youzhou!
It turns out that all this is just as those bald thieves in the Great Zen Temple said, every sip and every bite is determined by fate!
At this moment, as Li Wenjing continued to materialize and outline Han Shao's few words in his soul, the aura on his body surged violently.
Climb, climb quickly!
Gongsun Du's expression changed when he noticed this sudden change, because at this moment he suddenly felt an aura of transcendence from the old man Li Wenjing.
Nine Realms Taiyi?
Gongsun Du, realizing that Li Wenjing was about to complete the final transformation and sublimation of a mortal cultivator, felt his mouth twitching and his heart ached.
What does it mean to be "afraid that my brother is having a hard life, but also afraid that my brother is driving a Land Rover"?
This is.
In the past, when Li Wenjing's literary heritage was cut off and his future was ruined, he sighed and expressed regret for it.
But at this moment he just wanted to yell, 'Damn it, why! '
However, the mysterious and surging aura from Li Wenjing was still a little lacking after all, and it almost came to an abrupt end at the last moment.
But Li Wenjing, who suddenly opened his eyes, did not show any regret or dejection. Instead, he laughed.
"My way will be accomplished!"
As he said this, he stood up and bowed in front of Han Shao.
"If one person achieves enlightenment, his family and friends will also benefit from it. The ancients were right!"
"Today, I, as a father, have once again benefited from the kindness of my good son-in-law."
Han Shao, who was also a little confused, avoided the bow.
He didn't expect that his words, before convincing Gongsun Du, actually provided Li Wenjing with a clue to achieve enlightenment.
How do you say this?
An accidental planting leads to a tree growing into a forest?
However, after sorting out the cause and effect for a while, Han Shao understood the key point.
With an amusing laugh, Han Shao hurriedly helped Li Wenjing up.
“My father-in-law has a strong foundation, but his achievements have little to do with me.”
Li Wenjing did not comment on Han Shao's humble words.
We have been a family for a long time. Some things are said too much and too clearly, and they don’t mean much.
"Now that the path for my father is clear, all that is left is to put it into practice. From now on, I hope that my dear son-in-law will not blame me for taking advantage of my age and meddling in other people's affairs!"
With Han Shao's "personal rule" in recent years, not only has Gongsun Du retreated behind the scenes, but Li Wenjing has also stopped taking charge of affairs.
Saying this at this moment is undoubtedly announcing his comeback.
Han Shao was not annoyed by this, but instead looked delighted.
"It's my wish, but I don't dare to ask for my ear!"
"My father-in-law is willing to guide me and pave the way for me. I couldn't ask for more. How could I have any other thoughts?"
Otherwise, how can we say someone is born with a good mouth? After saying this, even without the relationship with Jiang Wan, Li Wenjing was willing to give her all.
Gongsun Du was dumbfounded when he saw this cheap fake father-in-law and son-in-law performing a drama of loving father and filial son in front of him.
No, am I not the protagonist here today?
How did this villain Li Wenjing show up?
With such dissatisfaction, Gongsun Du frowned and was about to say something, but he heard Li Wenjing sneer.
"Alright, Shao Ge'er has said it so bluntly, why are you still hesitating about it?"
After saying this, seeing that Gongsun Du still looked confused, Li Wenjing said with a bit of mockery in a bad mood.
"Don't worry, as long as the Liaodong Gongsuns don't commit suicide, Shao Ge'er won't touch them."
"The people of this world ultimately need scholars to govern, to regulate the four directions and to secure the country, and they also need warriors to serve."
"So even if there are no noble families, there are still kings, princes, generals and ministers...wealth, honor and power are all here."
However, when Han Shao becomes successful in the future, it will be impossible for him to rule the place for generations as he did in the past, and to have the power of life and death and dominate the land like a god.
Li Wenjing did not say the last word explicitly, but it was enough for Gongsun Du.
As soon as Li Wenjing finished speaking, he looked at Han Shao with burning eyes.
"My dear son-in-law... is that really the case?"
Han Shao laughed and nodded.
As for the noble families in this world, we must kill them all.
Otherwise, we will not be able to serve as a warning to those who come after us!
However, the measures also have to be prioritized.
Anyone who blocks the way must be eradicated and uprooted to prevent future troubles.
In addition, those that can be used to gain leverage can be done with gentler means, slowly disintegrating and transforming.
It is just like the vast and vigorous humanitarian torrent that Taizu next door launched.
After all, Han Shao's so-called ambitions were just a continuation of the wisdom of his predecessors. Even if he had achieved some success, he was only standing on the shoulders of those giants.
"With my father-in-law here, we are a family after all, so don't worry too much."
Seeing Han Shao promise so calmly, Gongsun Du felt completely at ease, yet at the same time, he actually felt a little guilty.
He showed hesitation and confusion for a while, and just when Han Shao thought he still had some concerns, he heard Gongsun Du say.
"Actually...if there really is someone who is not in a clear mind, then there is no need to consider your father's face too much. Just do what you should do..."
"After all, we are a family..."
Gongsun Du has always been very clear about the closeness and distance between people at home and abroad.
It is one thing to be unable to bear the trouble within one’s family.
But if I let this unwillingness delay the great cause of my own small family, wouldn't it be foolish?
Seeing Gongsun Du stammering out these words, Han Shao suddenly felt that his father-in-law, who had a sharp tongue, was somewhat lovable.
Han Shao said while laughing.
"I don't need to worry about the trade-offs, so don't worry, father-in-law."
……
People who are close to each other are most afraid of keeping things secret and holding them in their hearts.
As long as things are talked out, there won't be any secretive or sinister suspicions.
The good thing about the father-in-law and son-in-law pair, Gongsun Du and Han Shao, is that the former has a warrior's mentality and says whatever he thinks, while the latter, Han Shao, is well versed in human nature and has a clear mind.
Then there is Li Wenjing, the old fox, who acts as a middleman and lubricates the situation.
This is also the fundamental reason why the three of them have lived under the same roof for so many years without any conflicts.
Just like today, after a frank and heart-to-heart talk, the father-in-law and son-in-law, who were already far better than ordinary fathers and sons, suddenly began to talk and laugh.
On the high building in the north of the town, Gongsun Du, in a good mood, forced the tea to be replaced with strong liquor, and then started to clink cups.
During this period, Gongsun Du, who was in a drunken mood, boasted about his past glory in front of Han Shao.
What made him most proud was riding alone to the south of the Yangtze River in white clothes and a white horse, and finally marrying the beautiful woman.
Han Shao couldn't help but sigh after hearing this.
If we slice time and narrow our horizons, wasn't I, the old father-in-law, the protagonist of a novel back then?
With Gongsun Du as an introduction, how could Han Shao not be curious about Li Wenjing's past?
He was born in Jixia Academy, one of the three holy places, and was one of the seventy-second disciples of the Confucian master. Even though his small eyes made him lack the temperament of protagonists like Gongsun Du and Han Shao, it was enough to show his past glory and pride.
Maybe it was because he was drunk, or maybe it was because he had the chance to finally see Taiyi Shuguang today and was in a good mood, or maybe it was because there were no outsiders around...
This smiling tiger from Liaodong opened up his heart for a rare time and finally started to talk about the past.
Talk about how he was in his prime and how he attracted the attention of beautiful women.
It tells how he was extremely gifted and how he became the teacher's disciple and was the only one who was favored by his teacher.
But stories like this always have an ending that starts off positive but ends up being negative.
As Li Wenjing spoke, the expression on her face gradually became gloomy.
Those who are talented will inevitably be arrogant.
This is especially true for those who achieve success at a young age.
I always feel that many things and many people in this world are within reach.
But just when he was most proud and complacent, reality soon slapped him in the face.
The former beauty has married someone else.
And he was the old-fashioned senior brother whom he looked down upon the most back then.
Then, because he was influenced by the Confucian taboo of Legalism, his teacher cut off his cultural heritage and made him an abandoned disciple.
However, the old-fashioned senior brother whom he looked down upon and who married a beautiful woman suddenly gained power and became the principal of the Jixia Academy.
"The world is unpredictable, it's really fucked up!"
Seeing Li Wenjing take a gulp of the liquor and swearing, which was rare for him, Han Shao couldn't help but feel a little surprised.
Then he suddenly became interested in the 'senior brother' that Li Wenjing mentioned.
After all, judging from Li Wenjing's narration, his senior brother who got the beauty and became the head of the holy land fits the setting of a good-for-nothing protagonist. On the other hand, his cheap father-in-law Li Wenjing looks like a villain supporting role...
He muttered something strange in his heart, but before he could open his mouth to explore it in detail, he saw Li Wenjing suddenly smash the wine cup in his hand on the table.
"Shao Ge'er, your father is very good at dealing with women. Can you help me vent my anger?"
Um, where did this come from?
Do you want me to help you steal the other person's girl?
No, first of all, this is immoral, and secondly, who is the other party? He is the headmaster of Jixia Academy!
These three come——
I can't even bring myself to say that!
Just as Han Shao was complaining in his heart, Li Wenjing seemed to see through his thoughts and gave him a cold look.
"Asshole! What are you thinking! She is my...and your elder!"
White moonlight, I understand.
But if it's not what I think, then what do you want to do?
"She...she gave birth to a daughter for that bastard, you can marry her later!"
A son-in-law is half a son, and if you round it up, he becomes a biological son.
Just thinking about letting my son marry his daughter makes me happy!
After saying this, Han Shaoshang did not have time to sigh at the old man's perversion. Gongsun Du, who had been listening with great interest, immediately turned hostile and overturned the table.
"Li Wenjing, you old bastard, do you think I'm dead?"
