Li Heng's eyes were extremely clear, and he did not dodge Li Huaiyun's gaze at all, and said solemnly: "This is the heartfelt words of my nephew. I have carefully studied what Tang Zheng did, from small to large, and step by step. He established a wine shop, but turned the wine shop into a school. He bought wild persimmons at a high price, but used persimmons to make wine and vinegar. He decisively killed and seized military power overnight. He subdued the Salt Gang and trained a strong soldier in just three months. He reclaimed wasteland and caught winter fish in winter. Millions of kilograms of big fish are available for the entire Great Zhou. Still people are still worried about his goodness..."

Speaking of this, he sighed and said, "What Tang Zheng did seems simple, but no one could have thought of it before he did it, so these things were not simple, and my nephew was very admired. If he had not encountered assassination, who would have the right to jump out and fight for the position of the emperor's son? My nephew did not, Kong Zhen did not, and Tang Luoyu did not..."

Li Huaiyun nodded slowly when he heard this, suddenly turned around and looked up at the night sky, murmured: "Tang Zheng, what a pity! I met him in the Langya death row prison and was deeply impressed by the child's character. Although they did not have close friendships, they can be regarded as a friend of age. Alas, it's a pity, it's a pity!"

After saying that, he shook his head slightly and sighed, his face clearly sighed.

Li Heng stood with his hands down and said softly: "I feel sorry for my nephew. I once wanted to make friends with him, but I have never dared to go there. I am afraid that this will make me regret it for a long time."

Li Huaiyun silently said nothing, looking up at the sky with his hands behind his back. After a long time, he suddenly said: "The general trend of the world is about to change, and there will be more internal fighting than external fighting in the future..."

Li Hengzheng pointed his head, his tone was a little melancholy, and he sighed softly: "It's really a pity that things in the world are hard to go along with people's hearts. If the Great Zhou can sweep across Liuhe, that's what my nephew wants. Unfortunately, my uncle is right, and the general trend of the world is about to change."

Li Huaiyun said that the world's general trend was about to change. Sun Mingrui also said this to his two grandsons, but the two young men did not understand the meaning. No matter whether Sun Zhong was absent-minded or Sun Yue, the two young men could not understand why their grandfather said that, but as soon as Li Huaiyun said it, Li Heng understood it instantly.

The same hints and the same general trend, however, some people can understand, while others are confused, which shows that there is indeed a gap between people, and this gap sometimes reflects ability and literacy.

For example, today, the four young people with the color of Queen Li Jing and Xuejia have such a gap between them. Li Heng can understand the same principle as soon as he hears it, but the two young people with high expectations and low skills in the Sun family do not understand at all.

Just when Li Huaiyun told Li Heng that the world was about to change, several other families in the capital of Dazhou were also talking about this. Among them, the old patriarch of the Kong family was also taking the exam for the descendants. The young man named Kong Zhen also understood the meaning as soon as he heard it.

"The world's general trend is about to change..."

The old patriarch Kong stroked his beard and sighed, with a strong school entrance examination between his eyebrows. The old man looked at his grandson Kong Zhen who was kneeling in front of him to make tea, and suddenly asked with a smile: "Do you know? Why did I say this?"

Kong Zhen slowly looked up and whispered: "Grandfather's meaning, grandson understands."

"Is that true?"

The old patriarch Kong raised his eyebrows and said, "Since you understand, you might as well talk about my grandfather in detail and let me see if you really understand or deliberately lie to make me happy."

Kong Zhen knelt on the tea table and respectfully added a cup of tea to his grandfather. His face suddenly turned solemn, and he said solemnly: "The world's general trend is about to evolve. The reason behind this is nothing more than attacking and defense..."

As he said that, he looked up at the night sky and then said, "Although the Great Zhou has strong soldiers, the establishment of the country is still short. Your Majesty is smart and wise, and it is difficult to govern the country. As the saying goes, it is easy to conquer the world, but it is difficult to govern the world. Although our Great Zhou has 300,000 troops, which can sweep half of the world in a short time, it is very difficult to govern the country. If you are not careful, you will be dragged to death by the huge region..."

The old patriarch Kong seemed to deliberately capture him with a grammatical affair and said, "According to what you said, isn't a bad thing for founding a country? The bigger the region, the harder it is. So why do the founding emperors like to expand territory? The Tang Dynasty has a total of twelve Taos, and the Great Zhou Dynasty has only conquered four Taos. If the region is large, they will be dragged to death. Why is the Tang Dynasty not dragged to death by the region??"

"no the same……"

Kong Zhen sat down and respectfully answered his grandfather's doubts. He smiled and said, "After all, the Tang Dynasty has been long and enjoyed the country's reign for three hundred years. Although the official team is complex and huge, a huge team also has advantages. For example, as long as one of the ten officials is doing things, it can ensure the normal operation of grassroots villages and towns. What I, Dazhou, lacks, suddenly gains a huge territory, but lacks officials who govern the local government and the government orders are difficult to pass, so naturally it is impossible to make good progress. The people will live more miserable than before, and the suffering people will not have a sense of belonging to the Dazhou."

Old Master Kong said lightly, as if he was unanimous to this statement.

Kong Zhen thought about it and then said, "This is only one of them, the other is equally important. Sun Ye said just now that the Tang Dynasty lasted for a long time and enjoyed the country's reign for three hundred years. This is a kind of grand justice and innately possessed nominal advantage. The Great Zhou belongs to the new construction, which is basically equivalent to rebellion in the eyes of the people. Although we are strong in our troops, we lack the recognition of the people. Another point is that the Tang Dynasty is an old country with unquestionable power of calling, which seems to be in turmoil and its foundation cannot be underestimated. Once the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty climbs to the top, there will inevitably be loyal people. Perhaps it is difficult to summon a million troops, but it is not difficult to summon 500,000..."

He paused at this point, and made a conclusion with confidence: "That's why my grandson said, I understand that the general trend of the world that my grandfather said was about to change, from attack to defense, the Great Zhou and Tang Dynasties sat down to discuss peace!"

"Do you have to negotiate peace?" The old patriarch Kong was actually very satisfied, but he still deliberately raised questions. "What if we insist on attacking and destroying the Tang Dynasty?"

Kong Zhenling sat in a stern face and said with a serious expression: "We must discuss peace, not war. The Great Zhou has already conquered four paths, but Her Majesty's total strength is only 300,000. These 300,000 troops must be stationed in various places, otherwise they will not be able to deter the territory just captured. Once the military power is dispersed, it will be impossible to destroy the territories. In addition, the Tang Dynasty's military strength is still strong, so the Great Zhou will never continue to capture new territory in a short period of time... If you insist on destroying the Tang Dynasty, you may be dragged to death by the Tang Dynasty, so you must negotiate peace!"

The old patriarch Kong smiled and questioned deliberately again: "Your review is so bright, but the analysis is just an analysis after all, I am afraid that the emperors on both sides will not want it."

"The two emperors will be willing!"

Kong Zhen carefully considered his words and analyzed carefully: "Her Majesty the Empress is wise, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty is not stupid, the Great Zhou needs time to digest the occupied areas, and the Tang Dynasty also needs time to breathe, so what must be discussed this time, and once there is no discussion on the general trend of the world will inevitably change."

With such a long speech, Kong Zhen finally explained his thoughts, but the old patriarch Kong was still not satisfied. He stroked his long beard and smiled and said, "Your knowledge is not bad. Unfortunately, there is still something that has not been included in the eyeliner. The general trend of the world is indeed going to change, but it is not just because of the points you analyzed... The Great Zhou does take time to digest it, and the Tang Dynasty does take time to breathe, but this does not determine what the two countries must talk about. The real threat is actually in the north..."

"north?"

Kong Zhen was slightly stunned, then his eyes flashed and he blurted out: "What is the Grandfather talking about the Golden Horde?"

"good!"

The old patriarch Kong nodded slowly and said with a serious expression: "This is the real threat. It must slow down. As the Golden Horoscope is eyeing it, both the Great Zhou and the Great Tang Dynasty must be vigilant. Otherwise, when we are fighting, the Golden Horoscope will suddenly rush its troops south. At that time, the vast Central Plains will all be in the hands of foreign races. Both the Great Zhou and the Tang Dynasty will become sinners of the Han family..."

Kong Zhen nodded quickly and said in contempt: "What my grandfather said is very true, and my grandson admires it very much. As expected, I have a poor understanding and have not taken into account the Golden Horde."

"You're already good!"

The old patriarch Kong stroking his beard slightly and praised: "At your age, if you have such knowledge, my grandfather thinks you can fight among the younger generation. You are very sure that Your Majesty will choose a adoptive child this time."

Kong Zhen was clearly praised, but there was no joy on his face. Instead, he suddenly took a breath and said with a slight melancholy: "Actually, my grandson is not happy about fighting for the emperor's son. A good man should rely on his own skills to make achievements and strive for a successor's position as a national throne..."

The old patriarch Kong nodded slowly and said, "It's a pity that others want to fight, so our Kong family has to fight. This is for the prolongation and strength of the family. No matter you or I, you should not complain. Good grandson, things in the world are hard to be as satisfactory as possible!"

Kong Zhen remained silent, and after a while, he suddenly spoke, and his eyes were burning: "Grandfather, what if Tang Zheng was not dead?"

The old patriarch Kong was stunned and repeated: "What if Tang Zheng was not dead?"

"right!"

Kong Zhen's expression suddenly became warm, and he changed his previous mature and polite color, but he was really like a teenager. He said with a smile: "Although Tang Zheng was assassinated and had no signs of his death, there was no exact news about his death. What if he was not dead at all?"

Without waiting for the old patriarch Kong to speak, he said hurriedly: "Now all families in the Great Zhou Dynasty are eager to fight for it, wanting that their children can be seen by His Majesty and adopt them as the emperor's son to take off in the future. But have you ever thought that what if Tang Zheng was not dead at all?"

The seemingly turbid eyes of the old patriarch Kong suddenly flashed, and he blurted out: "If that happens, there will be a dispute when he returns!"

"Who will win?"
