Chapter 624 Reaching an Agreement

Li Derao laughed loudly: "That's right, that's right, you are indeed a principled person who won't offend me and I won't offend anyone, and this is what I appreciate the most.

You, Bai Fan, hold great power in your hands and own half of the world's wealth. You are a truly uncrowned king, but you are a young man without ambition, a selfless person who sincerely serves the country and the people. Even the current emperor is inferior to you. The country is for the people, and it is also to keep your own throne, but you have an incredible bottom line.

So you, even from the eyes of the aristocratic clans like me who are enemies, think you are an admirable opponent. "

"Hehe, I'm sorry, I don't intend to be anyone's opponent, even if I don't like you people, but after all, I am a citizen of the Tang Dynasty, and I am also a compatriot of the Huaxia clan. We are not enemies. Killing you will do nothing to me. benefit."

"Oh? If that's the case, then how should the 10,000+ unjust souls of the Li family in Longxi deal with themselves?" Li Derao joked.

... Er, Bai Fan touched his nose, and secretly scolded the old man for being difficult to deal with, "If it weren't for the three of them, would you always be honest with me today?"

"Hahahaha, that's right, this statement is true, what I can't figure out the most is that you have never met the emperor, why did you willingly become the most powerful sharp knife in his hand?
The two of you, king and minister, know each other, one is in the court and the other is in the opposition, and cooperate with each other. From now on, there will be no chance for me to wait for the aristocratic family to stand up. That's why I have to come to compromise with you today, or to put it bluntly, I am here to beg for mercy.

Everything you said today is true. Once the celestial food comes out, we will face a huge crisis. Although your suggestion is a bit harsh, it is indeed a good strategy for survival. With what you did today, old man I believe that you are a person who is dedicated to serving the public. You can even help me and other aristocratic families, which shows your heart. "

Bai Fan also laughed out loud, he is not stupid, he won't be limped by the old man with a few words, begging for mercy?The aristocratic family has been proud for thousands of years, why has it ever begged for mercy?
"I don't need to say these words. Those who don't have the heart to fight for power and profit, just want to find a balance. The world is my dream. It is His Majesty's dream to unify the country and surpass the ancestors. The reason why we have mutual support between monarchs and ministers is to support each other to realize our dreams. That's all.

But are you really willing to admit defeat like this?The aristocratic family has experienced thousands of years of ups and downs, and has never seen such a big storm. Are you ready to give it another go? " Bai Fan asked tentatively.

Li Derao lightly nodded his cane and said with a smile: "You don't need to be so provocative, the old man has lived to be nearly 80 years old, you can't compare to the city, and you can't tell if you don't want to say it.

But I can tell you about this matter openly and aboveboard.

In fact, we have already made a move. The Taiyuan Wang family and the Xingyang Zheng family are attached to the court, and my Zhaojun Li family, hehe, is the child Jingxuan. I don’t know if the Marquis of Lantian knows about Jingxuan today, can he still accommodate Jingxuan? "

I see, so that's the case, Bai Fan had no choice but to give a thumbs up to them, who have seen through everything, it's not worth cutting their tails to survive, but they still want to be reborn from the ashes?But so what?A brand new noble may not be the result we want.

"Hahahaha, Mrs. Li underestimates Bai so much, I dare to accept the direct son of the Li family in Longxi as my personal heir, let alone the child of your Li family in Zhaojun?
Teachers, preaching and karma dispel doubts!
The purpose of my Zhongnan Academy is to teach the next generation who can surpass the master. I also place high hopes on that child Jingxuan. If he can surpass me, I can only be gratified.

If after he completes his studies, he still only sees the narrowness of family inheritance in his eyes, then it means that I, Bai Fan, are incompetent in teaching, and it is understandable that I will suffer the consequences in the end. "

"Okay, Hou Lantian's words are magnificent, and this old man admires you.

The origin of the thousand-year-old family is the entrustment of the emperor. The longevity of the past dynasties is based on the capable people from generation to generation. Over the years, we have gone astray. If we can start from Jingxuan's generation today and retrace the path of the glory of our ancestors, we will be old. You can rest in peace!
Lan Tianhou, as a grandfather, I sincerely entrust my grandson to you to teach. I hope you will teach him with all your heart and make him a pillar of the country. In the future, I will never make things difficult for you again. "

As he said that, Li Derao made a big gift to Bai Fan, but Bai Fan didn't stop him. Looking at this frank old man, he felt a little admiration in his heart, nodded and said: "My own disciple will naturally teach you how to use your heart. Keep it private, don't worry about it.

In fact, I, Bai Fan, am not afraid of you making things difficult for me at all. To put it bluntly, I will come if I am not afraid of death.

What you have done in the past, despite all kinds of evil, I, Bai Fan, can't help but want to do it after hearing it, but I have to admit that even killing you all will not help the matter now. It is not what I want to create and kill, I, Bai Fan It's not a bad person. I was not present in the history of the previous dynasty, so there is no need to raise a sword against you with national righteousness, but if you dare to disregard human life in the future, don't blame me, Bai Fan, for being cruel.

I, Bai Fangai, do not rely on the gang of beggars to dominate the world. Even if the prosperous age comes in the future, there will be no more beggars in the gang of beggars. My martial arts, which is the best in the world, can kill all of you.

If you don’t believe me, go to the foot of Mount Qingcheng and ask why there are no tens of thousands of people in the underworld in the Tang Dynasty. "

Speaking of emotional excitement, Bai Fan couldn't help but let out his aura, almost even the roof tiles trembled for a while, Li Derao was even pale, and Bai Fan forced him to retreat and squat on the ground.

After a long time, Bai Fan regained his momentum, and Li Derao stood up with the help of his crutches, and cupped his hands at Bai Fan and said, "You have been taught!"

Then he went out tremblingly alone. At this moment, he no longer looked like the head of the family who was not angry and majestic, but an old man who had lost his momentum and majesty.

It wasn't until now that he realized that he still underestimated this young man. When he first came here, he wanted to negotiate the price with Bai Fan. It wasn't that Bai Fan had the bottom line of protecting the people of Li, and everything was concerned about preventing chaos in the world. Just because they conspired to bring chaos to the world in the former Sui Dynasty, it would not be an exaggeration for Bai Fan to slaughter their entire clan.

In Li Derao's heart, he couldn't hold any hatred for this young man who overwhelmed the world. Instead, he was full of admiration. He was capable but had no ambitions. He hated evil but had a generosity and benevolence that ordinary people couldn't match. Such a genius was born in Li Tang. Not sure how lucky they are.

The discussion on dividing the land at the Chang'an nobles' gathering was finally completed, but Bai Fan didn't feel much joy in his heart. Instead, he kept feeling sorry for Li Derao's secret story. The concepts of good and evil, right and wrong, learned at a young age, but you still have to stick to it, everything is for the so-called interests, and how many innocent lives are perishing because of a move by these superiors?Even an era has gone elsewhere because of their one move.

Thinking of this, Bai Fan became more cautious and introspective. In his own generation, he has also become a superior person and a chess player. He is not thankful that he is not a chess piece. Instead, he is more demanding about every step he takes. strict.

Because after all, no matter whether it is a chess piece or a chess player, they are still in the game. At this time, it seems that I am a chess player, but who dares to say that I am not a chess piece in someone else's game?Even if this other person does not exist, there is still a piece of sky above his head. Who dares to say that everything he does is not a move to the world?

The world, a game of chess!No matter whether you are a pawn in the sky or not, just hold the chess in your hand well and have no regrets in your heart.

With a sigh, Bai Fan couldn't help but reflect, why did he do all this?Merit?Rich?future?Selfish greed?Everyone admires?Datong in the world?ideal?The ultimate goal of the library?
No, these are not the answers I am satisfied with, maybe, it is to keep my heart from being dusted.
