War of Resistance: Glory of the Beasts

Chapter 293: From an unknown person to a famous person (thanks to 'Langya Wendao' for the yuan reward!)
The two men walked forward while talking, and at this moment the entire Yuan Mansion courtyard came into Xu Chaoyang's sight. He saw the lions, tigers, leopards and monkeys carved by the craftsmen on the roof with fine craftsmanship. He also saw the traces of time left by the carvings on the roof in the jaw-dropping craftsmanship as they swayed in the wind and rain.

The monkey with half an arm missing, the lion without a tail, the tiger without ears, and the leopard with a scratched stripe on its body all seem to prove the former glory and current desolation of this mansion.

The green moss growing on the roof and the spots that will soon spread everywhere seem to be telling the laws of history. In Xu Chaoyang's eyes, they foreshadow that a brand new force will completely bury all of this.

He slowly stopped at this moment, and he was already at the corner tower next to the courtyard. Under the corner tower, there was a huge copper lock on the door. On the corner tower, there was a plaque with the words "Looking at the World", which still looked majestic.

"this?"

When Xu Chaoyang saw this corner tower, the first thing that caught his eye was the cobwebs on the door. Logically speaking, even if the Yuan family had fallen into decline, there would be someone cleaning the door, at least not in this era.

Yuan Fuzhen lowered her head and said a little embarrassedly: "They are just some dusty old things. It's better not to look at them. There is nothing worth paying attention to."

Nothing worth noting?
Following the voice, Xu Chaoyang looked into the room, and the first thing he saw was a dragon robe!
Isn't there anything worth noting?

When Xu Chaoyang looked at the corner tower through the door, the marble on the dusty floor of the room was so exquisite that it had completely surpassed the times. The golden dragon throne behind the dragon robe and the dragon head handrails on the steps were covered in dust, but they still carried a dusty and vigorous power. However, Xu Chaoyang's position outside the door seemed to be still separated from this world by time.

"This building contains all the mistakes our Yuan family has made."

Xu Chaoyang could not hear any remorse in Yuan Fuzhen's words, but he could hear the voice of a loser.

"If it weren't for this step, Captain Xu, perhaps our current situation would have to be changed."

What she meant was that if President Yuan had not ascended the throne and the Yuan family had not fallen, then when Xu Chaoyang went to Peking again, he would probably be the one fawning on him, and he might not even get to meet Miss Yuan.

Even so, Yuan Fuzhen still said this while hugging him!

Think about who were the people who were qualified to talk to President Yuan before? The father of the nation, the King of the Northeast, and Zhang Xun, the arrogant man who wanted to restore the monarchy. Which of these people would Xu Chaoyang dare to stare at? Their figures were so big and scary!

In the eyes of this group of people, a team leader means nothing, no matter whether you are a hero or not.

"Want to go in and take a look?"

Yuan Fuzhen took out a key and poked it into the keyhole without waiting for Xu Chaoyang to speak. Then, he walked in openly, stood under the dragon robe, and said to Xu Chaoyang: "Please."

Xu Chaoyang really followed him in. The footprints he left on the dusty ground were like the traces he left in history. The magnificent scenes before him were like passing clouds in the long river of history.

"Captain Xu, do you know what my father did wrong?"

Yuan Fuzhen turned her head away: "My father said that the common people are lowly by nature, and they will take advantage of you if you give them a little smile."

"This is his biggest mistake!"

Xu Chaoyang thought that Yuan Fuzhen, this woman, understood, but he heard the next words: "It shouldn't be that the people are inherently lowly, it should be that human nature is inherently lowly!"

"Besides, human nature is lowly, you can only destroy it with your hands, but you can't be frivolous with your words."

"If you want to rule the people, you have to show all your tenderness and affection, and on the surface treat those illiterate people like they are in love. When they feel respected, you put on a bitter face and say, 'For the sake of the country, I have no choice!'"

Xu Chaoyang was shocked and asked doubtfully: "Do you think the people are fools?" This was a question.

But Yuan Fuzhen said it as an affirmative sentence: "Yes, we have to treat the people as fools."

"It's obvious that killing a few corrupt officials can win back the hearts of the people, but my father can only increase taxes when the country is short of money;"

"He is a warlord who can be stable by just raising his hand and giving away empty titles, but he can't even bear to give up the three words 'King of the Northeast'!"

"He clearly knows that there are tigers in the Northeast, and that they are deeply rooted. Whether you give him the title of 'King of the Northeast' or not, he is actually the 'King of the Northeast', but..." Yuan Fuzhen said disappointedly: "My father wanted to rely on his status to command this Northeast Tiger to lead the army to the border to defend Mongolia..."

"Can you command him?" "He still has the old ideas of the Qing Dynasty in his mind. He thinks that the title of 'king' can only be given to one's own descendants, not to outsiders. But you haven't even secured your position yet!"

"If the throne had been given to warlords at that time, there would still be a few beasts that would be relatively obedient under his chair. But what was the result? The warlords who did not gain any benefits led the people to rebel and started a nationwide crusade. In the end, they still lost their entire families."

Yuan Fuzhen stood in front of the dragon robe and wanted to reach out to touch it, but her hand stopped in mid-air, as if the dragon robe still had an indescribable sense of sacredness to her.

However, Xu Chaoyang was shocked by Yuan Fuzhen's remarks. He always felt that this woman had a beast in her heart that was even more ferocious than herself!

The next second, Yuan Fuzhen turned around beside the dragon robe and said, "Captain Xu, now you know why Fuzhen hates that she is just a girl?"

Xu Chaoyang didn't understand, so he stood at the door with his hands behind his back and asked, "Miss Yuan, what do you mean by this?"

"Fuzhen was despised by her ex-husband's family. They felt ashamed in front of me and said that I, the princess of the Yuan family, looked down on them. Little did they know that it was their own inferiority complex that was at work."

"Now that you've come back this time, do you know why those dignitaries are willing to give Fuzhen face and come to attend this church meeting?"

"They are not attracted by Fu Zhen's past identity. They are attracted by the strength that can be united under Fu Zhen's surname 'Yuan' in North China."

"If Captain Xu is interested, you can go down the family tree of my Yuan family and see how much power my Yuan family can mobilize."

He Yingqin actually said this.

When Xu Chaoyang looked up, he saw the excitement on Yuan Fuzhen's face, as if she was helpless in the turbulent waves of the times.

"Captain Xu, Fuzhen still has a question in mind, I wonder..."

"You ask."

Yuan Fuzhen asked: "Captain Xu, how should you deal with yourself in this chaotic world?"

"Do you want to climb the ladder quietly, or?"

When Xu Chaoyang heard this, he suddenly remembered a game called "Cyberpunk 2077" that he had played on his office computer. He seemed to hear the classic line again: "To be a nobody, or to be famous!"

He seemed to have heard Yuan Fuzhen's subtext: "I have everything you need!"

"If you are short of money, the Yuan family's inheritance is enough to support an army that is ready to fight;"

"If you are short of talent, the Yuan family still has old subordinates all over Beijing and Tianjin. These people can carry the sky both politically and militarily;"

"And the Yuan family is only lacking a man who can stand up and establish a family, and who dares to take action in this chaotic world!"

That feeling, that feeling...

It’s like when Zhu Yuanzhang faced Ma Dajiao, he gently held her hand, but what he saw was not her blushing face, but that under her ambition, she finally had a platform to carry her aspirations.

Who wouldn’t be tempted?
But Yuan Fuzhen did not ask these questions directly. She just looked at Xu Chaoyang with fiery eyes, wanting to use the last glory of the Yuan family to create a new glory, even if this glory belonged to the Xu family.

　Thank you, brother 'Langya Wendao', 20,000 yuan reward, what is this for! We all know that I sell my body but not my art... We who are engaged in art are pure, and your little money... can buy my life!
