Chapter 104: A stupid remark

A gentleman does not fight, the first thing to focus on is not fight, and then a gentleman is.

What is a gentleman?

Ancient great literary saints once defined a broad meaning for the word "gentleman", saying that the benevolent will not worry, the wise will not be confused, and the brave will not be afraid.

Since ancient times, the word "gentleman" has been subdivided into many images on many levels, such as being open-minded, emphasizing intentions over wealth, not setting up dangerous walls, being humble and observing etiquette. In the past, it is about governing the country and pacifying the world, and in the future it is about cultivating one's own self-cultivation and managing the family.

But no one can explain in detail what these two simple words mean. Zi is not arbitrary and loves to go to Hualou, but he is a well-known gentleman. Li Xiu is proud and conceited and indifferent by nature, but for many people he can also be called a gentleman.

These two words are inherently contradictory, so there are three words "hypocrite".

Later, there was a saying that was the most recognized.

A gentleman is an attitude towards oneself, towards others, and even towards the world.

Chen Linci was noble in character and was indifferent to fame and fortune.

Drunk in the spring breeze and drinking lovesickness alone, and willing to die is also a gentleman.

But now Li Wenxuan says that he is not a gentleman.

There was still a smile on his face, but the expression in his eyes was extremely focused.

A gentleman does not fight, but he fights.

Cui Yasi stared at him for a while, and the expression on his face had become extremely cold. He put down his raised arms and put down the words in his hand.

"Then please leave some more days in this Jincheng."

Li Wenxuan shrugged indifferently, obviously expecting it.

"Don't worry, Lord Cui, I won't go anywhere until the news about Li Xiu comes. You don't need to worry that the mother's wife will interfere. As long as I am here, our people will not move."

"It's better."

Cui Yasi put the word on the table, then pushed the door and walked out of the study.

But Li Wenxuan's voice behind him sounded again: "If the Taiwei people chose to intervene without my knowledge, what will Lord Cui do?"

Cui Yasi paused slightly, and then said, "What the prince planned to do before, what he would do at Xiaguan."

This is to make the Tang Dynasty never have the intention of a second prince from now on.

Looking at the figure walking away from the study, Li Wenxuan showed a strange smile on his face.

.....

Walk out of the study and return to

In the yard where Chen Zhimo was recovering from his wounds, Cui Yasi's face was absolutely unpredictable. He was His Majesty's most loyal confidant, so he naturally did not want to see the two princes causing chaos in the Tang Dynasty because of the battle for the throne.

Li Xianyi is the eldest son, and that position should be his.

If he was foolish and brainless, it would be fine to take power and raise traitors, but since the crown prince reigned the country, everything was handled just right, not much, no more, and extremely sophisticated methods, and he was the right candidate for the next Emperor Tang.

"You're really idle today."

As soon as he entered the room, he turned around and closed the door. Cui Yasi heard Chen Zhimo's teasing.

"It seems that you've recovered well."

Close the door and glance out the window, he walked to the bed and sat down.

Chen Zhimo leaned halfway against the head of the bed, looking a little tired.

"As long as you can't die, you will be a minor injury."

He grinned and said.

“What’s the result?”

Cui Yasi shook his head, then reached out to rub his temples, feeling a little irritated: "If you can solve it by writing four words, if Chu Zifei solved it early, why should it be my turn?"

"Since you have known the result a long time ago, why bother you?"

Chen Zhimo lifted the quilt on his body and threw it aside. He asked curiously, and the room was full of the smell of soup.

"Your Majesty has three sons. Although the prince is a little erratic, he is not careless in handling state affairs. He can be regarded as a model in the world. The little prince is not yet ten years old and is born to a partial concubine. He lives in the palace in a quiet manner and often follows the prince's buttocks."

"Only the King of Wu, the second prince is the biological child of the current queen, and behind it is the support of the Grand Marshal and other ministers. The desire to fight for the throne is obvious and it is not concealed."

This is a taboo and a bit ruthless.

But Cui Yasi didn't care at all, and there was only coldness.

Chen Zhimo frowned slightly and didn't say anything, because it was true. Although no one said it, the entire temple was almost tacitly understood.

“Now is an opportunity.”

Cui Yasi looked at him with a serious expression and said seriously.

"What is Mr. Cui referring to?"

Chen Zhimo coughed lightly, and the expression on his face became a little solemn.

"I am the prefect of Jincheng, and Jincheng is my territory."

This is very dangerous, so Chen Zhi

Mo's brows frowned a little deeper, and his body gradually sat straight.

"I'm sure my territory has the final say."

The prefect's mansion was very quiet, and the courtyard here was a place where Chen Zhimo rested naturally. The subordinates would not walk in without giving instructions.

Chen Zhimo sat up from the bed, put his feet on the ground, crossed his hands in front of him, staring at Cui Yasi's face.

Such a gaze is very deep, as if you can see through the human heart and see through everything.

Cui Yasi did not hide or avoid it. He knew that there was no need to block the calculation power in front of him, who was not inferior to Li Xiu's chief of the academy.

He was silent for a while, and then said, "If Li Wenxuan was not the same person from now on, I think the Tang Dynasty would have been much more stable."

There is a sycamore tree planted in the yard outside the door. Legend has it that the sycamore tree is a sacred tree that lives in the phoenix, but this one in the yard is just an ordinary tree.

There are no phoenixes on the tree, only a nest of fallen birds, and they refuse to leave even in autumn.

Cui Yasi's voice fell, and the swallows outside the window screamed a few times.

It is brighter than summer cicadas, but not as peaceful as summer cicadas.

Chen Zhimo was also silent for a while: "If you don't want to give up the entire Tang Dynasty Dongfang, then I advise you to give up this idea."

Li Wenxuan is His Majesty's son. No matter how he is with Li Xianyi in the future, at least he is His Highness's son now, and his Highness's favorite son.

This is also one of the reasons why the King of Wu dared to fight for that position by the crown prince.

If Cui Yasi killed Li Wenxuan in Jincheng, then his head would move in a few days, and then all the official factions in the entire Tang Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty would be unable to maintain balance and be stable.

This is very dangerous. The reason why Li Xiu wanted to go to Gusu City even though he knew he would die was to keep the Tang Dynasty from chaos.

“But it’s worth it.”

Cui Yasi looked up at Chen Zhimo's eyes, his eyes were very firm.

If Li Wenxuan died, the Tang Kingdom would be in chaos, but it would only be in chaos for a while. From then on, the world would have no choice but to stand behind Li Xian, and the Taiwei Qi Qin would also stand over.

A brief chaos brings long-term stability, which he thinks is worth it.

"You are not a stupid person. Since you are not stupid, then don't do stupid things anymore."

Chen Zhimo also looked at his eyes and said seriously.
