Chapter 625: Agreed
Li Derao smiled and laughed loudly: "Yes, yes, you are indeed a principled person who does not offend me and I do not offend others. This is what I appreciate most.
Bai Fan is in power and has half of the wealth in the world. The real uncrowned king is a young man without ambitions, a selfless person who truly serves the country and the people. Even the emperor today is not as good as you. Even the emperor is for the country and the people, he is to keep his throne, but you have an incredible bottom line.
So you, even if you are the aristocratic families of our enemies, think you are an admirable opponent."
"Haha, I'm too rewarded. I have no intention of being an opponent to anyone. Even if you people don't like them very much, they are all my people in the Tang Dynasty and my fellow Chinese clans. We are not enemies, and killing you will not be of any benefit to me."
"Oh? Since that's the case, then I wonder how to deal with more than 100,000 unjust souls of the Li family in Longxi?" Li Derao joked.
...Uh, Bai Fan touched his nose and secretly scolded the old man for being difficult, "If it weren't for the affairs of the three families, would you meet me honestly today?"
"Hahahaha, right, this is true. What I can't understand the most is that you have never met the emperor, why did you willingly be the most powerful blade in his hand?
You two know each other, one is in the court and the other is in the wild, and you will cooperate with each other. From then on, there will be no chance for aristocratic families to turn over. So today I have to compromise with you, or say it bluntly, just beg for mercy.
Everything you say today is true. Once the immortal grain comes out, we will face a huge crisis. Although your suggestions are a bit harsh, it is indeed a good countermeasure to survive. With your actions today, I believe that you are a person who is dedicated to the public. Even the nobles of our aristocrats in the aristocrats can help you, which shows your mind.”
Bai Fan also laughed loudly. He was not stupid. He would not be fooled by this old man in a few words and beg for mercy. He had been proud of his family for thousands of years, but he had never taken the initiative to beg for mercy?
"No need to say these words. Anyone who does not have the intention to fight for power and profit is just to seek a balance. The world is my dream, and unifying the country and the country is the dream of your Majesty. The reason why we interact with the king and the minister is to support each other to realize our dreams.
But are you really willing to admit defeat? The aristocratic family has experienced thousands of years of storms and storms, and have never seen any big winds and waves. Are you not going to take another try?" Bai Fan asked tentatively.
Li Derao gently lit his crutch and smiled, "No need to test like this. I have lived nearly eighty years old. You can't compare to the scheming and you can't tell what you don't want to say.
But I can tell you this matter openly today.
In fact, we have already taken action. The Wang family in Taiyuan and Zheng family in Xingyang are dependent on the court, while the Li family in Zhaojun is, haha, it is Jingxuan's child. I wonder if the Marquis of Lantian knows about it today, can still tolerate Jingxuan?"
I understand, so that's it. Bai Fan had to praise him for being clever. After seeing through everything, they didn't count on surviving after surviving, but they still wanted to be reborn from the ashes? But so what? A brand new nobleman may not be the result we want.
"Hahahaha, Old Lady Li underestimated Mr. Bai. Even the legitimate son of Li, Longxi, I dare to accept it as a personal master, let alone the child of Li, your Zhao County?
A teacher is to preach, receive knowledge and resolve doubts!
The purpose of my Zhongnan Academy is to teach the next generation who can surpass his master. I also have high hopes for that child Jingxuan. If he can surpass me, I will only feel relieved.
If he only sees such a narrow family tradition after he has finished his studies, then I, Bai Fan, cannot teach and end up suffering. "
"Okay, Mr. Lantian is so generous, I admire him.
The origin of the thousand-year-old family is the emperor's title. The prosperity of all generations is due to the generations of capable people. Over the years, we have gone astray. If we can start from Jingxuan's generation and re-take the path of glory to our ancestors, we can rest in peace!
Mr. Lantian, as a grandfather, I sincerely give you my grandson to teach you. I hope you can teach with all your heart and make him a pillar of the country. We will not make things difficult for you in the future."
As he said that, Li Derao gave Bai Fan a big gift, Bai Fan did not stop him. Looking at the honest old man, he felt a little admiration in his heart and pointed: "My own disciple will naturally teach with care and will not hide your own personal information. This is not a problem for you.
In fact, I, Bai Fan, are not afraid of you making things difficult for me. If you are rude, you will come if you are not afraid of death.
Even though you have done everything in the past, I, Bai Fan, couldn't help but want to take action after hearing this, but I have to admit that even if you kill all of you, it will be useless. It is not my wish to commit suicide. I, Bai Fan, is not a bad person. I was not present in the history of the previous dynasty, so there is no need to raise a sword to you with national justice. But if you dare to ignore human lives in the future, don't blame me, Bai Fan.
I, Bai Fan, overwhelmed the world, and it was not up to the Beggars' Sect. Even if the prosperous era comes in the future, there will be no one in the Beggars' Sect as a beggar. My martial arts that are the most invincible in the world can be enough to kill you.
If you don’t believe it, go to the foot of Qingcheng Mountain and ask, why are there tens of thousands of people in the underworld in the Tang Dynasty?”
Speaking of the emotional excitement, Bai Fan couldn't help but expose his aura, and almost even the tiles on the roof trembled. Li Delao was even more pale and forced to retreat and squat on the ground by Bai Fan.
After a long time, Bai Fan withdrew his aura. Li Derao struggled to stand up with a crutch and bowed to Bai Fan, "I've been taught!"
Then he went out tremblingly. At this moment, he no longer seemed to be the head of the family who was not angry and powerful, but an octogenarian who lost his momentum and majesty.
It was not until now that he realized that he had underestimated this young man. When he first came, he wanted to talk to Bai Fan about the price, but he did not expect that from the beginning to the end, no one in the aristocratic families had no capital to talk to others. If Bai Fan had not had the bottom line of protecting the people, he would have been concerned about not being in chaos in the world. It would be no exaggeration for Bai Fan to slaughter the whole clan just by relying on their conspiracy in the former Sui Dynasty to disrupt the world.
Li Derao couldn't raise any hatred for this young man who was overwhelming the world. Instead, he was full of admiration. He had all his abilities but had no ambitions, hated evil but had a kind heart that ordinary people could not match. Such a genius was born in Li Tang, and I don't know how lucky they were.
The discussion on the aristocrats gathering in Chang'an County was finally fulfilled, but Bai Fan did not have much joy of success in his heart. Instead, he felt sorry for the secret that Li Derao said. This is the human nature of the heart. Even if they know that what they did is not in line with the concept of good and evil right and wrong learned from childhood, they still have to persist in doing it. Everything is for the so-called interests, and how many innocent lives go through fire and water because of the one move of these superiors? Even an era has gone elsewhere because of their one move.
Thinking of this, Bai Fan was more cautious and self-reflective. By his generation, he had become a superior and a chess player. He did not feel glad that he was not a chess piece, but instead he had more strict requirements on every step he took.
Because after all, whether it is a chess piece or a chess player, they are still in the game. At this time, it seems that they are a chess player, but who dares to say that they are not a chess piece in other people's game? Even if this other person does not exist, there is still a sky above his head. Who dares to say that everything he does is not a chess move in the world?
In the world, a game of chess! No matter whether you are a piece of chess from heaven or not, hold the chess in your hands and be ashamed of your heart.
With a sigh, Bai Fan couldn't help but reflect on what he did for? Achievement? Wealth? Future? Selfish greed? Respect for thousands of people? Great harmony in the world? Ideal? The ultimate goal of the library?
No, these are not the answers that I am satisfied with. Maybe it is to not let my heart be covered with dust.
