Han Zuo Gaomen

Chapter 2
Shen Chong was about 30 years old, and when he was in his prime, he was even more mighty with his armor in his body.He was saying goodbye to his wife full of heroism, but his son rushed into the hall, and when he heard Shen Zhezi's words, his expression was quite displeased: "The elder speaks, children, don't make trouble, don't back down!"

"Husband, Que'er has just recovered from a serious illness, and Xu Shi suffered from hysteria again. Later, I will take him to the temple to ask Mr. Wu to take care of him."

Mrs. Wei was afraid that Shen Zhezi would be punished, so she hurried forward to pull Shen Zhezi up.

Shen Zhezi's nickname in this life is Qingque, Qingque is a Taoist auspicious bird, and most of the scholars of the Three Wus believe in the way of heavenly masters, so this nickname expresses the good expectations of parents for their children.The so-called going to the temple to ask the master to recuperate Yunyun is to go to the Qingyang Temple worshiped by the Shen family to ask the Taoist priest to pour talisman water.

At the moment of life and death, Shen Zhezi did not get rid of the feudal superstition. He just knocked his head on the ground and shouted to his father: "Father raised troops to help the rebellion. In this terrible situation, there will be no family left! A son is a son of man. Life and death are with him. It's hard to hold a weapon when you are young, but you can only repay your relatives with blood, and go to the underworld together, and don't let your father go his own way!"

When Shen Chong heard this, his expression became even angrier, but the anger was transferred to his wife Wei.In recent years, he was busy with affairs and rarely had time to teach his son by example at home. This time, he only took a few days to go home to visit his son when he learned that his son was critically ill.Although he was not close to his son and didn't know much about it, but he thought that a mere eight-year-old child could understand some important military and state affairs, and he was able to say such words, which must have been taught by others.

"Bitch, I handed over my son to you, what did you let him hear!"

Shen Chong was furious, took a step forward, and pointed his halberd at his wife, Wei Shi, his eyes almost burst into flames.

The Wei family was angered and was terrified and didn't know how to deal with it. Shen Zhezi rushed forward and hugged Shen Chong's calf: "What I said is all my own thinking and has nothing to do with my mother! Father, don't be obsessed anymore. You are not worthy of repaying your life for the hero! You conspired with that kind of mediocrity, you put your wife and family members under the knife, and you will never have a good end!"

Hearing this, Shen Chong laughed angrily, bent down and grabbed Shen Zhezi: "General Wang's position is respected and powerful, and people from the north and south depend on him. He is a hero at the time. Is it you, a naughty kid, who can comment?"

Seeing Shen Chong's complexion turned pale, Shen Zhezi felt a little relieved.To be honest, facing this legendary cheap dad, he also felt guilty.During the Wei and Jin dynasties, the gentry passed on, the family's interests were the highest, and the relationship between human relations was weak. Shen Zhezi really didn't know the temperament of this old man who followed Wang Dun again and again.This is also the reason why he hesitated for a long time, and finally made up his mind to take a gamble when there was nothing to procrastinate.

"Aspirations don't lie in age, and there is no plan to live a hundred years. Wang Dun and the like are fierce and cowardly, shaped like a pig's leg. Although they are powerful, they cannot resist the force of a cone. Touching them will cause them to vent their anger. Great things are hard to achieve! "

In order to convince this old man who believed in Wang Dun, Shen Zhezi also took great pains, deliberating over every word for a long time, and now he has made up his mind to say it calmly.

After Shen Chong heard the words, the anger on his face had subsided, and instead he showed a pensive look. He sat on the table with his son, staring at Shen Zhezi with burning eyes.Although he is more than 30 years old, he is running around to revitalize his family, but he doesn't pay much attention to this youngest son.After careful inspection now, I found that although Shen Zhezi was full of childishness, his face was calm, especially his eyes were bright and energetic, and he was by no means mischievous and shapeless like ordinary children.

However, what surprised him even more was what Shen Zhezi said earlier.In today's world, kings and horses respect each other, and among them, Wang Dun is a hero who attracts the world's attention. His authority and prestige are unparalleled in the world. Inside, there is Wang Dao sitting in the center as a support, and outside, there are clan princes Shu and Wang Binfang. .This is also one of the reasons why he insisted on being in the same boat with Wang Dun and refused to give up.

However, such a good situation was described by his son as a pig urine bubble with swelling outside and hollow inside, and his disdain was extreme.Shen Chong was surprised, and the words of "aspirational" surprised him, and he wanted to hear why his son thought so.After pondering for a while, he slowed down his tone, patted Shen Zhezi on the back and asked, "Que'er, why do you think so?"

"For example, in Cao GUI's debate, he worked hard and then declined. Xiangnian Wang Dun conquered Jiankang with unparalleled momentum. First, he dared not abolish the establishment, and second, he dared not face the king. We know that he is a mediocre person, and his talents are not worthy. The master of decision, if it is not for the current situation, it is difficult to occupy a high position."

Shen Chong didn't say a word, his son's words actually expressed his dissatisfaction with Wang Dun in his heart.When the army invaded Jiankang the year before last, the situation was very good. It can be said that the abolition of the establishment was only a matter of thought, but Wang Dun was afraid of criticism, and his mind would be disintegrated by people's words, so he missed the golden opportunity in vain.At that time, Shen Chong was indignant, and privately told his fellow countryman Qian Feng that Wang Dun was only a veteran because of his false name.The so-called veterans are not praising Wang Dun's rich experience in the army. The meaning of the present is similar to that of "trash" and "stupid X" in later generations.

Although he looked down on Wang Dun in his heart, Shen Chong had his own difficulties.Today's Wu Xing Shen family seems to be prosperous, but in fact the family background is not high, not to mention compared with those surnames of Nandu overseas Chinese, even in Jiangdong, they are not as clear as the old Gu Lu Zhu Zhang Yuan.The so-called "Jiangdong's hero, Mo Qiang, Zhou Shen", in the eyes of those real masters, is just a joke.

The Zhou clan of Yixing established Jiangnan three times, so what about one family and five princes, the rise and fall are only at the whim of powerful officials with overseas Chinese surnames like Wang Dun.It was precisely because he personally destroyed the Zhou family that Shen Chong was full of a sense of crisis and attached himself to Wang Dun's command, hoping to improve his family status by virtue of his unrivaled support and make the Shen family a truly unshakable master.So even though he looked down on Wang Dun, the ambitious and talented Beijiao, Shen Chong still had to do something about it, hoping to help the power of the Langya royal family to revitalize his family.

Shen Zhezi saw his father bowed his head and pondered, knowing that there was a turning point, so he continued: "Wang Dun's talents are not worthy, this is one. At the beginning of the year, Duke Xi of Gaoping entered the court, and Jingkou refugees who became soldiers could be used by the court, and the best time to do great things has been missed."

The so-called Xi Gong of Gaoping refers to Xi Jian, a northern scholar who later crossed the river. The most known to later generations is the allusion of "the son-in-law of the east bed". Xi Jian is the cheap father-in-law of the protagonist Wang Xizhi in the story.Because it was too late to cross the river, he failed to seize the political advantage in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, but its power should not be underestimated, that is, the exile militia it controlled.

Clothed and well-dressed Nandu, apart from those aristocratic families, the most people are refugees, and among them there are refugees who gather together, such as Zu Di who hears chickens dance.Although these refugee marshals have a lot of soldiers, but because they do not belong to the gentry circle centered on the Langya Wang family, in the past, the imperial court was cautious and did not dare to call them.However, the arrival of the Xi family changed this situation. The Xi family in Gaoping was not only a noble family in the north, but also controlled the power of the exile militia. Their arrival gave the imperial court a way to recruit the exile militia.In history, the main force to put down Wang Dun's second rebellion was the refugee militia.

When Shen Chong heard this, his face became more bitter.He also considered this reason. As early as the beginning of the year, he persuaded Wang Dun to recommend Xi Jian to the court as a minister, respecting his position and dividing his troops, but he did not dare to think about the effect.Because of this, he had the ambition to die, and wanted to take a risk before the court had fully grasped the refugee militia.

However, Shen Zhezi then stated a reason that pointed to the most worrying situation in his heart: "The king's family is a gangster, and he is a jackal in uniform! Fame is ungrateful, shameless! What is the merit of the Zhou family? Three Ding Jiangnan If he hadn't fought with all his strength, how could the overseas Chinese have crossed the south? If they were punished for their words, their achievements would be ruined."

Hearing this, Shen Chong looked quite unnatural.Looking into it, it was he himself who did the dismantling of the Zhou family, with the help of Wang Dun's power to cut off this feud.But through this incident, he can also see that Wang Dun is mean and ungrateful, and he regards every family in Jiangdong as lambs to be slaughtered. Zhou Qi, the patriarch of the previous generation of the Zhou family, even said to his son Zhou Xie's last words when he was dying: "I want to kill you!" You are the son of the north, if you avenge me, you will be my son!" The grudge between the north and the south is evident.

Although Shen Chong had deep thoughts, he still had luck in his heart: "Jiangdong Bingjia, the Shen family is the most prosperous, if he wants to maintain the stability of the Three Wu, how dare he turn against me before the big event is completed? How can a man live in the world? If you eat with a tripod, if you die, you will cook with five tripods! If it is not so heroic, it is a pity to die!"

Hearing this, Shen Zhezi couldn't help being moved.He thinks he is familiar with the trend of history and can guide his father, but he is actually living in the present, and his understanding of the current situation may not be weaker than his own.It's just that he is not willing to succumb to reality, even if he risked his life, he would break a new world for the family!

The gap between scholars and commoners is like a world of difference.From the Jin Dynasty to the Southern Four Dynasties, Wu Xingshen's family was promoted from a local tyrant to a noble family, which is the history of blood and tears of generations of clansmen.In the history without Shen Zhezi's participation, father Shen Chong's risk of betting his life as a dead criminal was only the prelude, and the next scene was his infant brother Shen Jin, who would fight Luoyang to the death in order to wash away the stigma of his father's treason.

This sentiment may be admirable, but Shen Zhezi does not agree with it.In his opinion, the gentry status that his parents would risk their lives to pursue is the biggest joke, it is so ridiculous that heaven cannot tolerate it!The shitty Wei and Jin style, the shitty gentry, a bunch of wastes with corpses and vegetarian meals, the picture scroll of Gou'an in the Southern Dynasty with flesh and blood as the background, no matter how gorgeous the skin is, the inside is disgusting!

Therefore, Shen Zhezi wanted to prevent his father from raising his troops to respond to Wang Dun. In his mind, it was not just to save his life, but to preserve this ambition and use it where it should be used.Being in this time and place, and being of the blood of the Han family, he also has great ambitions, looking north to Shenzhou, even if he dies, he will die on the land of the Central Plains!Since the Eastern Jin Dynasty, the previous Northern Expeditions have never had righteous teachers, and each has its own arms.He wants to spend his whole life to create a volunteer army for the Northern Expedition purely for the purpose of killing Hulu, restoring Shenzhou, and rejuvenating Han Zuo!
"Qingque, my father gave you the cold shoulder in the past, but unexpectedly my son has such talent and ambition. How can a Lin'er who has never existed in Jiangzuo grow up in the Han Dynasty!"

Shen Chong raised his head and laughed, holding Shen Zhezi in his arms, with even more determination in his eyes: "When you are parting, you can hear my son's high-level remarks, and you will die without regret! You can rest at home and take care of your mother and younger brother. Triumph for the father and leopard tail, seal the wife and son!"

After finishing speaking, he stood up abruptly, and gave a deep salute to his wife, Wei Shi, who was bowing her head and weeping in tears in the corridor: "Madam manages the family well, and it is my family's great favor to raise Lin'er! I was rude and wrong before, Madam, please don't mind. After I leave, no matter what Whether it can be done or not depends on the support of the family, so don't worry about it."

Seeing this scene, Shen Zhezi was a little dumbfounded. He didn't expect that after a long while of persuasion, he strengthened his father's determination to rebel.The brain circuits of the ancients are indeed different from those of later generations.Seeing his father laughing and going out, he made up his mind and decided to use the trick he relied on as his trump card: "Father, wait a moment, I have one more thing to discuss with you!"
