A Timely Wife

Regardless of General Zhou's thoughts, the sentence Grandpa Zhou really made General Zhou feel cold. He is only in his 30s, and he is called Grandpa. No matter how many times he hears it, General Zhou will feel very awkward. I said it, but Xiong Ruofeng insisted on this title abnormally. After a long time, General Zhou just let him go.

These little guys in front of them will be the ones who will take on the burden of Da Chu in the future. No matter how you look at it, General Zhou feels that these little devils are unreliable, including Xiong Ruoshan, who is already sitting on the throne, is completely unqualified in General Zhou's heart. , You have to hone it for a few more years.

A group of little things showed expressions of disapproval when they heard General Zhou's words, but this expression was also very interesting, Xiong Ruoshan frowned slightly, Xiong Ruofeng frowned and raised his brows, Li Cheng and Cheng Li deserved to be The twin brothers looked at each other at the same time and communicated with their eyes. Zhou Jinyan moved his nose, and Zhou Jinsi's little bun face wrinkled into a ball, looking very dissatisfied.

General Zhou observed around silently, and then said: "What's the matter, you still have opinions, since you think what I said is not good and you are not convinced, you should do something to impress us, I don't care about anything else. Said, Ruoshan, you are now the emperor, no matter whether you want to give up the throne to Ruofeng or what to do, the burden of Nanchu is now in your hands, what you have to consider is how to manage Nanchu well, Internal and external troubles, you should be the most worried person, but I don't see any anxiety in you now, you are probably thinking that anyway, there are me and your brother-in-law, both civil and military, to help you share, so You don't need to put so much pressure on yourself.

Ruofeng is your younger brother, and also the person you set up as the emperor's younger brother. He will be the one who will take over the burden from you in the future. He is your responsibility, not your retreat. When Chu was handed over to him, whether it was a prosperous dynasty or a doomed court, no matter which one, whether you can safely hand it over to Ruoshan and whether he can take it over is something you have to consider.

You always feel that you are only 15 years old this year, but when your father was 15 years old, he had already started to raise troops against the south, and he won a big victory, and your grandfather even formed a cabinet when he was 15 years old, and vigorously appointed capable officials. Officials, let Da Chu accumulate a lot of food and money in just a few years. If it weren't for your grandfather, your father would never have been able to start so many wars.

Ruoshan, you are the Xiong family. It is your responsibility to recover the lost land. It is also your responsibility to let the people live and work in peace and contentment. It is yours, not ours. Neither I nor your brother-in-law can provoke this on your behalf. The burden, so Ruoshan, you must straighten your position, you are no longer the second young master of the Li family, but the emperor of Nanchu. "

Xiong Ruoshan was ashamed after hearing General Zhou's words. It was because he knew that what General Zhou said was right that made him feel so uncomfortable. Xiong Ruoshan knew very well that he had always regarded himself as a member of the Li family from the bottom of his heart. , Sitting on this position was out of helplessness, he had no way to refuse, it was completely driven out of the market, he was unwilling to sit, and naturally he didn't want to get exhausted for these so-called state affairs, he always felt that he belonged to the Li family Young master, there are grandparents, parents, and brother-in-law helping him, leading him, and leading him. The only thing he has to worry about in the future is his own marriage. As for Nan Chu, he doesn't think it's his own. Responsibility, my responsibility is to help Nanchu through this transitional period. As long as I can ensure that the existing land will not continue to be invaded, I will be worthy of my ancestors. As for what the future of Nanchu will be, that is Xiong Ruofeng Questions to consider.

Xiong Ruoshan just wanted to be Li Ruoshan, the man with a family, not a loner, so Xiong Ruoshan has never had a great understanding of her identity, including the training of Xiong Ruofeng. Xiong Ruoshan didn't think that Xiong Ruofeng should I have to teach myself, there are so many capable people, among other things, General Zhou is a very powerful person, and the elders in my family also have their own strengths, and Xiong Ruoshan feels that he is also a half-baby who needs to learn , so Xiong Ruoshan never considered Xiong Ruofeng's teaching as his own business.

In the final analysis, Xiong Ruoshan did not regard Nanchu as his own business. He is a good son and grandson, and he is very filial to Li Qi and Li Liang. When he eats delicious food on weekdays, the first thing he thinks of is his grandfather. Grandmother and father and mother have never failed to ask for instructions early and report late. If Li Qi and Li Liang were not surnamed Li, and their own surname was Xiong, Xiong Ruoshan would have wanted to make Li Qi and Li Liang the Supreme Emperor Yes, unfortunately, he can't even give the Li family the title of king now, and the authority in his hand can only give the Li family the title of a Dingguo general.

Listening to what General Zhou said now, Xiong Ruoshan felt guilty while feeling a little guilty. The 15-year-old boy's face was flushed, and he didn't know what to say. General Zhou's words came at the right time. Xiong Ruoshan suddenly understood the responsibility on his shoulders, and also knew how big a mistake he had made. He always thought that what he had done was good enough. If he issued an edict, he would issue an edict, and if he was asked to form a cabinet, he would form a cabinet. As long as he was asked to do something, he would do it, and now it seems that the development of Southern Chu is not bad, although most of it is not his own credit, But he felt that he was very honored, but now it seems that he was really wrong. He should not be honored by these previous things, but should be ashamed, because there is nothing he did. These things should be done by him.

Seeing that Xiong Ruoshan had listened to her words, General Zhou smiled slightly. Her son should be a person who rules the world and should be admired by others. Next, I can also explain to her that General Zhou's eyes turned to Zhou Jinyan. Compared with the plainness just now, General Zhou's expression was serious at the moment, and his tone was serious. He looked at Zhou Jinyan and said, "I won't say much about your grandfather. Gorgeous character, your father has already passed the exam at your age, and you, you can only memorize some poems and songs, every time you are asked to express your opinions on government affairs, you either falter and haw This is the reason, or you just keep silent. You think this is prudence, but in my opinion it is cowardice. You dare not say it in front of us. What will you do when you are asked to face the officials? People with different political views, or those who are selfish for personal gain will not be polite to you. They often want to kill you when they open their mouths. What will you do at that time?

Don't tell me that you uphold the attitude of those who clean themselves up, let me tell you, if your grandfather hadn't insisted that the clean ones should clean themselves up, they wouldn't have ended up being killed all over the house. To deceive children, a lie, one person says it, no one believes it, ten people, a hundred people say it, no matter how much the superiors believe in you, they will have doubts in their hearts, don't underestimate such a little doubt, Once the seeds of doubt are planted, sooner or later they will grow into towering trees.

Now we are all your family, your relatives, we ask you what you think, so that you can get in touch with these things earlier, and if you have the opportunity to stand at a higher position, you won’t because you haven’t been in touch with these things And there are many situations in a hurry, and at the same time, I hope to understand your true thoughts. After all, the future of Dachu will be handed over to you. As a result of the courtiers, looking at ancient and modern times, once the national policy changes from day to day, the dynasty often cannot last long. A dynasty that can last must adhere to some basic national policies, and then make adjustments in the process of continuous development, but the general direction has never been changed. will change.

I sincerely say that you are the most promising grandson of our Zhou family, and you are also the leader of our Zhou family in the future. You can't stand behind others like this forever, you have to stand up, dare to speak up, dare to make mistakes, You are still young and have the capital to make mistakes. If you don't make a small mistake now, you will get into big trouble in the future. I hope you can remember this. "

Zhou Jinyan's face turned pale. It was the first time he heard his little uncle criticize him so seriously. The seemingly taciturn little uncle turned out to be such a powerful person. He told his truest thoughts clearly. Yes, he He is timid and afraid of getting into trouble. He is unwilling to speak because he thinks what he said is too wrong. If he doesn’t say it is good, the Zhou family just talked too much, which provoked the emperor’s disgust, and thus ended up like this. Subconsciously Zhou Jinyan didn't even want to be an official, he didn't want to be in politics, he just wanted to wait until Xiong Ruoshan handed over the throne, and after the matter with him was approved by the two families, they could live a relatively leisurely life, go to sea together, or travel around together Okay, he is also willing to lead the army to fight together, he just wants to be an ordinary person, live an ordinary life, and then be able to die well, instead of being convicted for his words and affecting the family.

But what his little uncle said was also right. He is the most promising grandson of the Zhou family. His grandfather, his father, and his little uncle all invested too much energy in him and placed their high hopes on him. He has no reason to let them down, and he has no right to shirk his responsibility. No matter how far he and Xiong Ruoshan can go in the future, he should fight for the surname Zhou. He believes in Xiong Ruoshan, and he has believed in it for so many years With the friendship between the two of them, perhaps, he will not repeat the mistakes of his ancestors, and perhaps, in his hands, the Zhou family can restore the glory of the past, no, even more than the glory of the past.

He is still too cowardly, he put all the responsibilities of the Zhou family on the little uncle, he just wants to hide behind the little uncle, enjoy the life that he should not enjoy with peace of mind, it is time to take responsibility for himself He has no way to satisfy the elders in his family in terms of marriage, so he has to do something in terms of official career and family honor, and it is not in vain for him to come to this world for a while.
