Father can be an enemy country

Chapter 721 The retirement life of a Korean father-in-law

In Fengyang, the central capital, the palace gates were closed, and there were stopped construction projects everywhere.

The city wall, which had only been built for a few years, was already covered with weeds.Like a poor woman who was abandoned from beginning to end, shivering in the cold wind.

This is a lost city, and many frustrated people live in the city.

For example, the founding prime minister of the Ming Dynasty, South Korean Gong Li Shanchang.

The Ming Dynasty failed to move the capital and the Zhongdu project was suspended. This was a devastating blow to Li Shanchang, who risked his political life and gave it a go.

Coupled with the subsequent empty seal case, he and Boss Zhu broke completely.

Li Shanchang was able to escape unscathed, and his son returned the favor to the princess. In fact, it was Boss Zhu who was thinking about his old relationship and worried about the reaction of the Huaixi Group, so he gave him a good death...

However, Li Shanchang did not appreciate it very much. The complete failure of his political career made him unhappy for a long time.

In the past few years, he has not been on the list of congratulatory guests during the holidays.Boss Zhu fell ill that year and could not go to court for more than ten days. All civil and military officials in the court sent letters to express their condolences, but he remained indifferent.

But Boss Zhu was so angry that he cut off Li Shanchang's annual salary of [-] dan, so Li Shanchang obediently went to the table to apologize...

After that, Old Li Tou also became more honest. He knew how to send greetings during festivals and festivals, and he no longer interacted with the old brothers in Huaixi.He stayed in his Korean mansion covering an area of ​​[-] acres all day long, guarding more than [-] concubines, and lived a so-called retirement life of "living in seclusion and writing lyrics and music to entertain himself."

During the New Year's Day, the Korean father-in-law still closed the door to thank guests and refused to accept New Year greetings. He and his brother Li Cunyi were just having wine and listening to music, which was quite relaxing.

After listening to the last play of "Indus Rain" that day, Li Shan looked at his absent-minded brother and said:
"Going back to Beijing tomorrow?"

"Yes, brother." Li Cunyi twitched his lips and said with a smile: "How can officials in the Ming Dynasty have holidays? It is the emperor's grace that I can come back to spend the New Year with Xie."

"Humph, this has become a grace..." Li Shanchang snorted coldly, put down the crutches with both hands, and exhaled a long breath. "I heard that the emperor asked Hu Xiang to personally execute Hu Tianci. Is this also a kind of grace?"

"That's what the emperor said." Li Cunyi sighed: "Oh, Mr. Hu is in such a miserable state."

As he spoke, he waved his hand and asked the servant to go further, and then continued: "Actually, he killed his son twice."

"This is new," Li Shanchang couldn't help but laugh: "Hu Tianci still has two heads, so his father can kill him twice."

"Brother, I don't know. It's like this..." Li Cunyi thought that Hu Weiyong failed to kill the white duck last year and was secretly plotted. First, he mistakenly thought that he had poisoned his own son, so he refused the emperor's extrajudicial mercy. As a result, he found out during the execution , the real Hu Tianci was on the execution platform. In the end, he could only watch the story of his son being beheaded and tell Li Shanchang the whole story.

"That means killing three times." Li Shanchang watched the excitement and said, "That morning meeting counts as one time. If you don't save, you will kill."

He rubbed his hands happily and said, "Well, 'Prime Minister Hu killed his only son three times' would be a wonderful drama. I have something to do this spring..."

"Brother..." Li Cunyi was speechless for a while. What kind of happy-go-lucky mentality is this? "Thinking about how Li You died, don't you sympathize with Hu Xiang and not be an enemy at all?"

"Sympathy, I share the same hatred, but what's the use?" Li Shanchang smiled and said: "I am just an old man who has been in office for many years and is dying. I can't help him, and I can't do anything to hate him."

"Brother is not old. He just took a concubine of eighteen years ago..." Li Cunyi said: "People say that you are a dead tree and a spring blooms."

"I did it to show the emperor." Li Shanchang said calmly: "The more I indulge in drinking and sex, the more relieved the emperor will be, and the safer our old Li family will be." "Brother is like this now," Li Cunyi looked at the squinting old man in front of him. The son said: "It really doesn't look like he's just pretending."

"Haha, who said I was faking it?" Li Shanchang took a sip of wine and said with a pleasant smile, "Who doesn't love wine and sex? It's not too late for me to enjoy it."

"Brother..." Seeing Li Shanchang's appearance, Li Cunyi said anxiously: "If you surrender like this, you will chill the hearts of the old brothers!"

"That's what I said. Now the eldest brother in Huaixi is a fool." Li Shanchang said lightly: "I have dedicated my life to the Ming Dynasty. What's wrong with enjoying myself when I am old? Do they need to just eat carrots and worry about it?"

"Hu Xiang's foundation is still too shallow, and the fire is not good." Li Cunyi said with a bitter smile: "After struggling for the past few years, his family has been ruined. Now he finally knows that he is made of rotten wood - it is difficult to bear the burden. I'm holding on."

As he spoke, he took a deep breath and expressed his intention: "So when I came back this time, I was entrusted by Xiang Hu and Marquis Jiangyin to ask my eldest brother to come out again."

"Seeing as you have been hesitating like a worm eating an egg in the past few days since you came back, I know you must have farts to hold in." Li Shanchang laughed and gloated:
"Hu Weiyong didn't stab me in the back in order to ascend to the throne. Now I finally know that not everyone can be the prime minister?"

"I definitely know." Li Cunyi nodded and said with a smile: "Only a founding father like eldest brother who responds to everything can make everyone work together!"

"If I were in the government, I would have the final say on the affairs of the Ming Dynasty. How could it be possible for the emperor to weaken the Zhongshu Province to such an extent?" Li Shanchang occasionally showed his majesty, and then sighed dejectedly:
"So the emperor won't let me go back. You guys must have given up on this idea."

"Yes, we also know that it will be difficult for the eldest brother to return to his position in the Hongwu Dynasty." Li Cunyi paused and said tremblingly while holding back his pounding heartbeat:

"Then why not, let's change the emperor..."

"What?" Li Shanchang's face changed drastically when he heard this. He almost choked to death without a sip of wine. He coughed repeatedly and said, "What the hell are you talking about?!"

"I mean, we are planning to change the emperor..." After holding in his words for several days, he finally dared to speak out, but Li Cunyi stopped being evasive.

"I'll fuck your mother!" However, Li Shanchang's reaction was beyond the fierceness of his face.I saw the Korean man's face turned as red as an eggplant. He stood up suddenly, lifted the table, gasped like a bellows, pointed at Li Cunyi with trembling fingers and said:

"Are you possessed by a ghost? What nonsense did the ghost say? If these words reach the emperor's ears, all nine of our clans will be wiped out, you know?!"

Li Cunyi was so frightened that he stood up quickly, but he said unyieldingly: "Brother, can't you see clearly even today? The emperor has made it clear that he wants to kill the rabbit! Anyway, he will die sooner or later, why don't you give it a try? Maybe there is still a glimmer of hope!"

"What on earth are you thinking about? With just the few materials you have, you still want to give it a try. Are you overestimating your capabilities? I find it funny even after hearing this!" Li Shanchang sneered again and again, hating Li Cunyi. road:

"If you weren't my biological brother, I would have someone capture you right now and send you to the emperor!"

"Brother, I am your brother and Li You's father. I must avenge him!" Li Cunyi blushed in anger and said loudly: "If you don't help, I will do it myself!"

"Shut up!" Li Shanchang shouted angrily, rounded the dragon-head crutch in his hand, and hit Li Cunyi's leg with all his strength.

Hearing a crack, Li Cunyi fell to the ground, then hugged his legs and screamed.

"Ah, my legs!"
