The old man seemed to be immersed in the memories, smiling, and looking into the distance, but his thoughts seemed to drift to the distance.
"My family entered the palace when I was 12 years old. Because of my great strength, I was valued by Emperor Taizong. He didn't use me as a servant, but ordered someone to teach me how to ride and shoot. He went to the army and went out with Emperor Taizong many times. Emperor Taizong's Tengxiang Four Guards were established by our family.
At the beginning, your great-grandfather, Fang Zheng, did a lot of hard work to help me establish the Four Guards of Tengxiang.
For this reason, Emperor Taizong always called me Ma'er, Ma'er, and the world knew eunuch Liu Ma'er, but they didn't know that my name was Liu Yongcheng.
In order to deter the enemy, I wear a fake beard every time I go out to battle. Those desert soldiers are so brave that our family is terrified, haha!
Emperor Taizong went to the desert five times, and our family followed closely, went to battle to kill the enemy, and took the lead!
Wuliangha Sanwei was dishonest, our family beat them to the point of throwing away their helmets and armor, and the crap, Sanwei will never get up again! "
Fang Yuanzhi listened with great interest to the old man's cadence.
Pictures of gold and iron horses came to her mind.
Fang Yuanzhi couldn't help sighing: "It's a pity that I was born many years late, otherwise I would have to join the army and see the general's demeanor!"
At this time, she changed her words to call the old man a general. She always felt that only the word general could express her admiration for the old man.
The old man paused, waved his hand, and said, "You're not bad either! A little girl who dares to go to the front to destroy the Miao barbarians! Didn't fall into the prestige of Governor Fang!"
Fang Yuanzhi was a little ashamed: "It's a pity that the luck was bad and I couldn't make any contribution..."
The old man didn't take it seriously: "A girl's family, where does it need to make contributions? Doesn't it set off us men like dung? By the way, that Mao Rong was transferred to Sichuan as the general soldier, is it your Fang family's handwriting?"
Fang Yuanzhi remembered what his uncle Fang Yi said, and bowed his head in agreement.
"That's good. With Cheng Xin suppressing him in Sichuan, he doesn't dare to do anything wrong again. After the incident in Sichuan, it's best to transfer him to Guangxi. Han Yong is in Guangxi to supervise military affairs, and he promises nothing. There is nothing good to eat when he goes..."
Fang Yuanzhi was surprised and said: "General, you are recuperating at home, how do you still know about the affairs of the world?"
The old man laughed heartily: "It's just a habit that we developed after suffering a lot. Our family was highly valued by Emperor Taizong, so we changed from a broken body to a horse eunuch respected by everyone. Who is disrespectful inside and outside the court?
In order to repay Emperor Taizong's kindness, our family has no choice but to do our best and do our best for the royal family of the old Zhu family.
Ugh……"
The old man let out a long sigh, with a look of sadness on his face.
After a long while, he said: "When the late emperor defeated the civil fort, our family was guarding the western frontier, and we couldn't save him in time. It's really heartbreaking, and I regret it! If our family had spent more time in the palace, we wouldn't just think about building meritorious deeds and expel the Tartars, and we wouldn't be in this situation!"
"Since Jingtai and Tianshun, the current situation has been turbulent, and various forces have competed and fought. If it weren't for our family holding a heavy army and defending the imperial city, where did these years of peace come from?"
Only then did Fang Yuanzhi know that the thin, white-haired old man in front of him was the magic needle of the entire dynasty.
What about the Sun family?
Fang Yuanzhi still asked.
"The Sun family? Hmph. The Empress Dowager Sun indulged her relatives to take power, so she was not worried about our family? She also regretted it when she was dying. It's just that it's easy to delegate power, but it's not so easy to take it back! After all, the Sun family came from a small family, and they get a little carried away when they are proud. They have been colluding with friends and powerful all these years. I am afraid that others will not know that their Sun family is the only one.
The old bones of our family are in charge of the th Regiment Battalion together with Sun Jizong. The old man hates our family to the bone, and I wish I would die early! "
"Your majesty is still young and promising. In the past few years, I have seen clearly the Sun family's intentions, and began to cut power a little bit. Our family will show Sun Jizong, hand over military power and family wealth, and have a hundred allegiances to the emperor!
As a result, their grandson's family only learned the skin and not the inside, and pretended to ask for an official post, but continued to place cronies in the th Regiment Battalion! "
Hearing this, Fang Yuanzhi had no choice but to admire Liu Yongcheng's integrity.
She thought about it, knelt down, and sincerely kowtowed a few times: "Yuan Zhi admires the general for his understanding of righteousness and integrity! Be like a general, you can afford it, and you can let it go!"
Although she also wanted to be a person who could afford and let go, but when she actually implemented it, she was still too late.
Liu Yongcheng admired her eyes, and looked at her with a little affection: "Girl, you are not simple! There are so many women in the world, how many of them don't want to be favored by the emperor, and thus soar into the sky? You can hold your breath."
Fang Yuanzhi's face turned red with embarrassment.
She thought again of that terrible night.
She didn't want to soar into the sky, she just wanted to escape the shame and embarrassment that couldn't be removed.
If someone else treated her like that, she might not have such a deep sense of shame.
But it was Zhu Jianshen!The person who was affectionate to her but was rejected by her many times!
This made her feel like she wanted to be a whore and set up a torii, but she lost all face!
Liu Yongcheng looked at her face full of shame, and said: "Get up. I accept your gift. But, you have to think clearly, you can do it if you have a clear understanding of righteousness and integrity."
Fang Yuanzhi was puzzled.
"Although the emperor intends to rectify the imperial court, after all, his enthronement is still young and his foundation is shallow. If there are more helpers, the chances of winning will naturally be greater."
"You were born in the general family, the Fang family has good relations with the civil servants, the British government and other meritorious service, and you have won the trust of the emperor. If you can contribute to the long-term stability of the Ming Dynasty, it will also be an immortal merit!"
Fang Yuanzhi's eyes dodged a little.
She didn't think about it.
She was still stuck in her own negative emotions and couldn't get out.
Don't talk about contributing, she wouldn't even see the emperor, or even think about the palace.
Liu Yongcheng didn't say any more.
Fang Yuanzhi knew that although Liu Yongcheng was bedridden to recuperate from illness, he knew everything about him.
With this strategizing ability, it is no wonder that he is someone who can compete with the Sun family.
When Liu Yongcheng was in a coma before, Fang Yuanzhi took care of all the work by himself, but now that he has recovered, his own personal maid has done it.
Fang Yuanzhi has more and more leisure time.
Instead, her heart slowly opened up.
Liu Yongcheng's words brought her to a world she had never touched before.
In this world, there are monarchs and ministers who know each other, who serve loyally, and who swallow mountains and rivers with arrogance and give advice.
What is to do one's best to die?What is a profound understanding of righteousness and high moral integrity?
These words and stories that only appeared in books before have now happened to a living person.
He used his wonderful life to vividly interpret these righteousness.
He was originally a servant who was looked down upon and despised by others, and was called "a lowly seed with no roots", but he did not succumb to the arrangement of fate. With his own efforts, he and Emperor Taizu wrote a hymn for the future generations to know each other.
So is Zheng He, the eunuch of the Three Treasures.
So, why should she suffer from the current predicament, sad and depressed, unable to extricate herself?
