It's a secret for Young Marshal long to visit Yongcheng externally, but he can't hide it from others internally.
Zhang Jingzhi saw long Yue in lengsa's study. She was not too surprised. She calmly came forward and stretched out her hand, "long Shao, you're all right." it seemed that she didn't adapt to the change of her identity.
Long Yue also stood up and shook hands with him. He didn't look down on Zhang Jingzhi because Zhang Jingzhi was down now. He was even more solemn than when Zhang Jingzhi was the son of the prime minister.
Lengsa sat and looked at them and said with a smile, "you've seen them too. Can we talk about business?"
The Dragon Yue said with a faint smile, "nature."
The three sat in the study and talked for another afternoon. Then Zhang Jingzhi left with Long Yue and was going to take long Yue to the industrial zone and automobile factory outside the city. Lengsa received a call from Zhuo Lin.
Speaking of Long Yue's visit, Zhuo Lin was not surprised. "The dragon family has a Yue, and it will not be bad in the future." but it is inevitable that she will not become a competitor of Fu Fengcheng in the future.
Lengsa also nodded in agreement. "Long Shao's response is really slow. I've just started planning here. He's already in Yongcheng before the beginning. Speaking of this, I have to thank my mother for fooling Zhang Shao to the six southern provinces. Long Shao won't come to rob me?"
Without Zhang Jingzhi, the plan might not be implemented in a few years. Fu dujun and Fu Shao didn't have that Kung Fu. Lengsa had too scattered interests and didn't have that patience.
Zhuo Lin said with a smile, "the eldest son of Zhang Jia is not so easy to deceive. If he doesn't mean that, it's useless for me to break his mouth."
Lengsa was playing with the telephone line and said with concern, "is mother OK in Beijing?"
Zhuo Lin's voice took a relaxed smile, "there's nothing wrong. It's you. You're working hard alone when Fengcheng goes out. When you feel tired, you throw everything back to Fu Zheng, regardless of what he said."
Leng SA said, "I'm fine, and I don't have much to do personally. It's good for my mother to be well in the capital, so Fengcheng has less worry outside."
The two talked for a while, Zhuo Lin asked about Xiaoshi again, and then hung up the phone.
In the residence where Zhuolin lives in the capital city, just put down the telephone assistant to report, "Ms. Zhuo, Mr. Zhang is coming."
Zhuo Lin was stunned and quickly said, "please invite him in."
But for a moment, Zhang Bi came in from the outside and smiled at Zhuo Lin, "excuse me, Mr. Zhuo?"
In one year, Zhang bi was obviously older. Although he was still clean, he had a few more white hair on his temples and lost a lot of weight. Instead of wearing expensive and decent suits, he put on a robe and looked like a rich man of ordinary scholarly family.
Because of Zhang Zuo's affair, Zhuolin came to the capital, and they had little contact in the past few months. Although Zhang Zuo's whereabouts are still unknown, in fact, everyone knows.
Ren Nanyan and Qu Jing have always had a trace to follow after they ran away, but Zhang Zuo seems to have really disappeared silently in the prosperous capital. Most of them are really gone.
Zhuo Lin naturally knows more than Zhang Bi, but she doesn't intend to tell Zhang Bi.
"What's this, senior? You can come to my little place. Please sit down." Zhuo Lin got up and said with a smile.
Zhang Bi sat down opposite Zhuolin. When the assistant brought tea, he still looked at Zhuolin and didn't speak.
Zhuo Lin was not in a hurry and sat with him waiting.
Until the tea in the cup had warmed, I heard Zhang Bi smile, "I never thought that you and Fu Zheng could continue their fate in this way these years."
Zhuo Lin frowned slightly. As soon as she was about to speak, she saw Zhang Bi raise her hand and stop her. "I don't mean that. I still know your temperament and never go back. It's just... The eldest and youngest of the Fu family is your own son after all. Can't this relationship be broken?"
Zhuo Lin nodded, "the senior came specially to say this? Why?"
Zhang Bi shook his head and abruptly changed the topic. "Jingzhi called me yesterday."
Seeing Zhuo Lin frowning, he said with a smile, "there's nothing to say on the phone. You know where I live... Someone is still watching now. I can't say more on the phone. But I can still understand some, Xuemei... Are you going to pave the way for Fu Shao?"
Zhuo Lin was silent for a long time before she looked up and said to Zhang Bi, "if I say no, the senior must not believe it. Has the senior ever thought about the future of Anxia?"
Zhang bi was stunned and didn't speak. Obviously, he was thinking about this problem.
Zhuo Lin said with a smile, "the last time I chatted with the seniors was last year. At that time, the timing was wrong and I could only say a few words in a hurry. In fact, I always wanted to talk to the seniors."
Zhang Bi looked up and looked at her deeply. Zhuo Lin looked at a magnificent picture of rivers and mountains on the opposite wall and said softly, "we all came from that era. How many people died in those years? Although you and I were far away from the smoke of war at that time, we didn't know it at all?"
Zhang Bi nodded silently, and Zhuo Lin said, "I counted a few years ago that the population of Yunzhou alone decreased by 800000 in 10 years from Anxia 297 to the sixth year of the new calendar. This is because the four northern provinces are far away from the hinterland of Anxia and are separated by the Gyeonggi region. Only a few forces outside the pass compete for it. In those places in the Central Plains, all forces sing and I come on stage. How many people have died in one place for several times?"
Zhang Bi sighed, "I know, according to the cabinet statistics, the whole population of Anxia decreased from 360 million to 337 million from 297 to 6 years of the new calendar."
Of course, not all of the more than 20 million people died because of the war. Some died naturally, some fled the war and left their homes, and some died because of disease, famine and other reasons. But this number is still terrible, because without so many people, there will be a steady stream of births, that is, more people will die than this number.
Zhuo Lin sighed and said, "so, do the seniors want to do it again? Now this generation is not young, maybe they can't move and don't want to fight, but what about the next generation? When will it be the head? Let them decide the victory and defeat, is it enough to die another 20 million?"
Zhang Bi could not help taking a breath. He felt a little cold at the pass of nearly June. After a while, he said in a deep voice, "if you succeed, your bones will wither. Since you came here, not to mention the thousands of miles of rivers and mountains."
Zhuo Lin said faintly, "once you've achieved success, your bones will wither... Who stipulates that this land must be whose? If you go around and finally go back, why did you overthrow the Xiao family?"
Zhang Bi looked at her for a long time and said with a bitter smile, "you know, it was also... Chasing ducks into the market. Do you think everyone was really running to overthrow the royal family and return to power to the people? Really no one dreamed of kicking down the emperor and sitting on it? It's just that all parties involved are not strong enough."
At that time, he was still young. Facing the sudden chaos, he could only follow his father's instructions blankly. When I returned to God and listened to my father's teaching and analysis, I knew how dangerous it was at that time.
If Prince an had not made a quick decision, and if there were not the support of young and strong groups such as long Xiao and Fu Zheng, it is uncertain that the whole Anxia is still kneeling. I don't know which emperor is his majesty.
Later, his father worked hard to ascend the position of prime minister. In those years, he also worked hard to maintain a fragile balance, for fear that a careless generals with heavy soldiers would be in the city. In those years, my father worked too hard and consumed too much, so he retired from that position and died within two years.
Zhang Bi sighed, shook his head and waved away the past in his mind, "what does Xuemei want to do?"
Zhuo Lin raised her head slightly and looked at him face to face. After a while, she said in a deep voice, "let Anxia never repeat the mistakes of thousands of years, and eliminate everyone's desire to compete for imperial power. Once again, peacefully, become one."
Zhang Bi looked at him for a long time and said, "I didn't expect you to have such ambitions, but... Did the Fu family promise?" it's impossible for the family and the world not to repeat the mistakes.
No matter how powerful the Empire will eventually weaken and collapse, but who can really give up the possible world in hand for the unknown future?
"Why do you think long Xiao and Fu Zheng supported Xiao Zhu to delegate power in those days instead of directly letting those people gain the power of learning from the dragon? Is it because they think they are the one who can ascend the throne?"
Zhang bi was dumb, naturally not.
At that time, Long Xiao and Fu Zhengyuan were not as powerful as they are now. They were even forces under the hands of other big men. The most different thing was that they had made great achievements in war when they were too young.
Of course, it is impossible to say how noble their sentiment and prediction of the future are. They just don't want to be an emperor so urgently, and even don't think it is necessary for the emperor to exist to some extent.
If a person doesn't agree with a thing, he naturally won't feel how precious and important it is, let alone have any obsession.
"Does Fu Shao think so?" Zhang Bi asked.
Zhuo Lin said with a faint smile, "otherwise why would I be here? Or... Otherwise, why would Jingzhi go to the six southern provinces? Are Zhangjia and Jingzhi really ready to help be loyal to the next emperor?"
Zhang Bi laughed, shook his head and said, "I'm old. I see what you mean. I'll go back and talk to Yu Xiang when I'm free. You have a good relationship. You can talk to him directly. He should support you."
Zhuo Lin smiled, "it's too early. You know, you can't achieve these without strength."
Zhang Bi stood up and said, "if you can really do it, it will be enough for the Fu family to remain famous forever."
Zhuo Lin said faintly, "it's a matter for future generations. I only take the road in front of me."
"Have you ever thought that all your efforts might eventually become another form of imperial power?" Zhang Bi asked.
Zhuo Lin looked at him. "Is it because of this that she doesn't do anything?"
"You're right. In fact, if you can't figure it out, you can talk to Prince an." finally, Zhang Bi smiled.
Zhuo Lin looked at him with a puzzled tilt of her head, "what are you talking about?"
Zhang Bi said with a smile, "no one in the world knows the emperor's way better than him. You don't want to repeat the mistakes. You can find him and learn from him."
"..." Zhuo Lin said nothing. "I don't know where he is yet." since Xiao Zhu left Yongcheng last year, almost no one knows where he is except for sending a few letters occasionally.
Zhang Bi's voice came from outside the door, "you'll always find him if you want to find him."
