Chapter 200 The Ambition of a Hero

When men and women are together, it is hard not to think about ambiguous and beautiful places. It is human nature to be attracted to the opposite sex. Not only men think of women, but women also think of men. In ancient times, women were also women.

This is a pure feeling, no conflict of interest, no intrigue, it is completely driven by nature, and the natural attraction between men and women. Everyone will have such a relationship in their life.

Xiao Fan was no exception. Looking at Zhang Hongqiao's gorgeous and beautiful face, many past events suddenly surged in his heart. He remembered the years of his previous life. That year, he was seventeen years old, and she was seventeen years old...

Well, this is not the point. The point is that now he and Zhang Hongqiao are left in the flower hall, and the lonely man and widow are living in the same room. The man is handsome, elegant, and has a courtly power. It is simply in line with the ideals in the hearts of all women in the world.

The woman is graceful and graceful, full of glory, and her every move is full of charm and even charming charm.

Anyone who sees the two people in the flower hall will say that they are born with a perfect match, perfect like a person walking out of a painting.

It’s a pity that Xiao Fan knew in his heart that he and Zhang Hongqiao were not as flawless as they looked on the surface.

Xiao Fan never forgot that this woman was given to him by Zhu Di. Her origin is too questionable. Xiao Fan didn't know what kind of mission Zhu Di had and what purpose she had to get close to him. He had always been highly vigilant about Zhang Hongqiao.

The flower hall was very silent. Xiao Fan wanted to ask her directly what purpose she had, but she still endured it.

If a woman doesn't want to say something, she can't even ask the result even if she tortures her confession. If a woman wants to say something, she will still say it even if she blocks her mouth.

Zhang Hongqiao's beautiful eyes glanced at Xiao Fan from time to time, his eyes were flowing like autumn water, and his white teeth bit his bright red lower lip, showing a seductive charm of his daughter's family's irritation.

Xiao Fan was dry and swallowed with difficulty.

A gentleman is not a eunuch, but a gentleman also loves beauty. The more serious a gentleman appears, the more he loves the kind of charming and coquettish woman. This kind of psychology... Who is the gentleman knows.

Zhang Hongqiao pouted slightly: "Mr. Xiao, isn't my family ugly?"

"Of course not. The girl from Hongqiao is so beautiful, how could she look ugly?"

"That's why Lord Xiao has too high vision and can't tolerate Liu Pu's posture like me?"

Xiao Fan said sincerely: "Miss Hongqiao has been underestimating herself. Believe me, as long as the person who is not dead will feel heartbeat for you..."

Zhang Hongqiao looked increasingly aggrieved. She lowered her head and said quietly: "Why do you disdain for me?"

"The motherland has not been unified yet, I am very depressed and have no intention of talking about love..."

Zhang Hongqiao: “…………”

"Okay, it's because I already have a good wife in my family. I really can't bear to let you, a fair beauty, be a mistress..."

Zhang Hongqiao opened his eyes wide in surprise: "What is a 'miss three'?"

Xiao Fan had to patiently explain to her the definition of mistress.

Zhang Hongqiao chuckled and said, "So the mistress is a concubine..."

As he said that, Zhang Hongqiao said with a look of sadness: "Women from a family like me have no good fortune to be a big wife. They are born to be a concubine for others. I don't mind it, so why should adults mind?"

Xiao Fan blinked: "Do you really mind being a mistress?"

Zhang Hongqiao lowered his head and said quietly: "As long as your wife can tolerate my family, Hongqiao... would like to serve him with her concubine."

Xiao Fan laughed and said, "I disappoint you, you can't be a mistress..."

"Why?"

"I have two ladies. Even if you enter my door, you will be a little Si..."

Zhang Hongqiao's air junction: "…………”

Did this guy deliberately anger me?

After a long silence, Zhang Hongqiao sighed softly and said, "You and your two ladies must be very loving, right?"

When Xiao Fan mentioned the thrush and Jiangdu, a warm smile appeared on the corner of his mouth and his eyes became warmer.

"Yes, if you have a good couple to accompany you for a lifetime, it will be a great blessing. If you have a good title to me like a cloud of smoke, they will be my wealth in life..."

Zhang Hongqiao stared at him for a long time, and suddenly smiled and said, "Since you love them so much, why are you willing to leave them alone to come to Peking thousands of miles away?"

Xiao Fan smiled and sighed: "Because I have other responsibilities, these responsibilities are more important than staying with my wife..."

“What responsibility?”

"Friends, morality, faith."

"What is…faith?"

Xiao Fan smiled and said, "It is something worthy of your life to maintain, such as human ethics, principles, righteousness and belief in the world. These things require us to persist until death. This is called faith."

Zhang Hongqiao asked in confusion: "What does this have to do with your coming to Peking?"

Xiao Fan looked at her with a smile, with a meaningful smile: "If someone who should have been an emperor was usurped by his uncle and was just a vassal king, but he raised troops and set up martial arts to be the emperor, and he should have been the nephew's thing, but he insisted on robbing him. This would be a mess of human ethics in the world and a rebellion of the justice of the world. If I ignore it, it would be a cheating of my conscience and a damaging my friend's morality. Therefore, I must come to Peking! Miss Hongqiao, do you understand what I said?"

Zhang Hongqiao looked at the inviolable awe-inspiring look in Xiao Fan's smile, and couldn't help but be deeply shocked by his appearance, and nodded involuntarily.

Xiao Fan's smile became deeper: "Miss Hongqiao is very wise. I believe you will understand. Since you were a child, you have studied piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. You must have read the books of sages and sages. Naturally, you will understand the principle of sacrificing your life to seek righteousness. The way of the ruler and ministers passed down by the sages has been worshipped by the world for generations. If a person ignores the ethical principles, what is different from animals? Miss Hongqiao, every sentence I say today comes from the heart. If a girl can listen to one word and a half, it will be my greatest relief."

After saying that, Xiao Fan got up and walked out the door.

Zhang Hongqiao hurriedly called him: "Mr. Xiao, why do you... say this to me today?"

Xiao Fan turned around and smiled, "Because I always think you shouldn't be a bad person."

Zhang Hongqiao's beautiful eyes suddenly showed a complex look. After hesitating for a while, he lowered his eyelids and whispered: "I'm not a bad person, will you tell me these reasons? If you meet a real bad person, will you be so reasonable?"

Xiao Fan grinned, and his two rows of white teeth emitted a shiny light: "I don't have so much patience to the real bad guys, just think of a way to kill them, so how could it be so long-winded."

Zhang Hongqiao looked at Xiao Fan's back as he walked away, his eyes filled with deep thoughts. After a long time, she murmured to herself: "Is faith... so important? It's worth your risk to sacrifice your life and be in person? You... shouldn't have come!"

After sighing a few faintly, Zhang Hongqiao looked at Xiao Fan's back, and his eyes gradually became blurred...

In the palace of King Yan.

Zhu Di stared at the sergeant who was passing the military newspaper with excitement and asked anxiously: "Gui Lichi led 50,000 Mongolian soldiers to take down Yumuchuan, and is about to attack and open up the flat?"

"Yes, Prince. According to the scout's return, three days ago, the Mongolian coalition forces, led by Guilichi and Alutai, entered our Ming Dynasty and attacked Yumuchuan with all their strength. Yumuchuan had few defenders, and they were captured by Guilichi within a few hours. Then, after half a day of rest, the entire army set off and headed south, with the troops aiming directly at Kaiping. Now, Kaiping is about to be defeated."

"Good come!" Zhu Di shouted excitedly, his eyes turning red: "I have been waiting for a long time!"

The monk Daoyan on the side smiled and said, "Congratulations to the prince, this plan must be sold."

Zhu Di sneered: "If only 50,000 troops dare to invade the borders of our Ming Dynasty. Do they think they were the invincible Mongolian cavalry back then?"

Daoyan smiled and said, "Mongolian attacked the border, and the imperial envoy was on the north side of the emperor. At this critical moment, how could he ignore it as the imperial envoy of the imperial envoy? If he didn't personally fight for the emperor, it would be unreasonable. If he really went to the battlefield, he didn't know whether this weak scholar could escape his life by chance on the battlefield with swords and swords? Congratulations to the prince, Xiao Fan could not advance or retreat this time, and the prince could finally get rid of this hatred."

When Zhu Di heard this, his excited smile gradually calmed down. He turned his head and stared at Daoyan without saying a word for a long time. The look in his eyes was terrifying.

Daoyan's scalp was numb when Zhu Di stared at him, and he twisted his body uneasy, and smiled awkwardly: "Uh... Prince, did I say it wrong?"

Zhu Di was silent for a long time and said in a very slow tone: "Sir, do you think I have tried my best to lead the Mongols into the territory of the Ming Dynasty, and let them go straight in, burn, kill, loot, and capture the city, just to get rid of Xiao Fan, the enemy?"

Daoyan couldn't laugh anymore and said stiffly, "Isn't it?"

Zhu Di stared at him for a while, suddenly laughed to the sky, then laughed and said sternly: "Sir, you have misread me!"

Daoyan's face turned a little pale, and he said with a forced smile: "Prince, I don't understand very much..."

Zhu Di said: "Yes, I really want to be the emperor, and I really want to get rid of Xiao Fan's thorn in my eyes. In order to achieve this goal, I can do everything possible. Any despicable and shameless method, as long as it is useful, I can make it happen. But now the Mongolians are attacking the border and invading the border of the Ming Dynasty. I am the late emperor and the lord of Youyan. I am responsible for guarding the country and protecting my territory. No matter how unworthy I am, I will not do it for it.

Abandoning an enemy and making a move to lead a wolf into the house! Is this a real man's act? Since I, Zhu Di, have been vassalizing Beiping, have repeatedly attacked and defeated the Northern Tartars many times. That was a military achievement that I had made with one sword and one shot, and no one could erase it! If I ignore my father's teachings during my lifetime in order to eliminate Xiao Fan, what kind of face will I have to meet him in the future after my death? Sir, the national justice and personal grudges must be clearly distinguished, otherwise it will not be a big deal."

Daoyan said quietly: "But... Prince, what you said before was to use the knife to kill people. Isn't it to use the Tartars to remove Xiao Fan?"

Zhu Di said leisurely: "Yes, I really want to use the Tatars to remove Xiao Fan. Moreover, this time the Mongolian invasion of the border was a great opportunity, but my main purpose was to wipe out the 50,000 Mongolian cavalry! Eliminating Xiao Fan was just a matter of doing it."

After a pause, Zhu Di stared at Daoyan and said word by word: "Sir, don't forget that the troubles of the Ming Dynasty are in Northern Mongolia. I used this plan to lure the enemy into deep and wipe it out in one fell swoop, and it is not just to eliminate Xiao Fan. You must grasp the importance of justice and personal grievances. Don't regard me as a prodigal son who disregards justice. If I become an emperor in the future, the entire country belongs to me. If I lose one inch of land, I will be ashamed of the late emperor and be guilty for the rest of my life."

Daoyan was shocked when he heard this. He stared at the wise lord and partner in front of him who had been with him for more than ten years. He suddenly felt a trance, as if he had only truly understood the lord of Peking, the vassal king who was ordered by his father to guard the northern border.

It turns out that in addition to his vigorous ambitions, he also has a mission of not being able to shirk. This is a truly hero with ambitions and ambitions in the world. He plans to be the 195th position not only to satisfy his personal ambitions and power, but more importantly, he feels that he will do better than Zhu Yunwen as the emperor. He wants to prove to his deceased father that choosing him Zhu Di as the crown prince is the most wise decision. Father, you chose the wrong person during your lifetime!

At this moment, Daoyan couldn't help but admire Zhu Di in his heart. Heroes have great ambitions, good plans, opportunities to hide the universe, and ambitions to the world. This is the real wise ruler.

The two were silent for a long time, and Zhu Di suddenly smiled and said deeply: "Sir, are you disappointed with me?"

Daoyan shook, tidied up his clothes, bowed deeply to Zhu Di, and said sincerely: "It is a blessing for me to meet the prince in three lives. I swear to follow the prince to death!"

Zhu Di laughed loudly, his laughter was heroic and generous, and his anger surged into the sky.

"Come here! Beat the drum and gather the generals! Please ask the imperial envoy to go to the royal palace to discuss matters!"

The imperial envoy.

Xiao Fan held the military newspaper handed back from outside Shanhaiguan with the Jinyiwei in his hand, and his brows were deeply frowning.

"The Mongols are offending the border again... It's the middle of summer now. The King of Yan sent Zhang Yu to provoke the Tartars at this time, so why?"

Cao Yi, who was standing beside him, scratched his head and said, "My Ming Dynasty was established, and he has always taken the strategic offensive against the Mongolian Northern Yuan Dynasty. The late emperor personally fought several times, and the King of Yan personally led the army to fight many times. On weekdays, he often sent small groups of elite cavalry to take the initiative to go deep into the grasslands at any time. When he met a small Mongolian tribe, he would come forward to encircle and suppress it. When he met a large group of enemies, he would avoid it. However, this time General Zhang dared to fight the golden tent, but he had never heard of it..."

Xiao Fan thought deeply: "This matter is a bit strange. What medicine is sold in the King of Yan's gourd?"

Taixu sat on the chair on the right, put one leg high on the side of the coffee table, and hummed while picking his teeth: "You officials like to guess randomly. This is a very simple thing that makes you complicated..."

Xiao Fan was excited: "Master has great insight?"

Taixu snorted: "Although I know nothing about the government and military affairs, I can guess without calculating my fingers. Why did that Zhang Yu hit the golden tent..."

Xiao Fan and Cao Yiqing couldn't help but raise their ears and asked in unison: "Yes, why?"

Taixu looked up at the sky, was silent for a long time, then slapped his thigh hard and said, "Because he is just carrying it!"
