    Chapter 1,155 Not far from death "What are you going to do with me." Mu Qinglin asked.  At this time, the person sitting in front of him has changed, and it is not the Thousand Hands and Thousand Faces that he finds annoying.  To Thousand Hands and Thousand Faces he was just annoying, but to this young man he was afraid.  Although this person is younger than Thousand Hands and Thousand Faces, although this person looks much kinder.  "I haven't planned it yet, but if I need to leave someone to collect Mu Guangling's body, it should be you." Fang Jie replied.  Mu Qinglin¡¯s expression suddenly changed, but he didn¡¯t refute anything.  "The young master is probably not dead yet." He said.  Fang Jie nodded: "Mu Xianjun is indeed not dead, and he is at Phoenix Terrace." Mu Qinglin's eyes lit up, and then he smiled: "If so, we really should celebrate. Mu Zihuan that day  When he suddenly attacked the Duke after returning, I guessed that something big must have happened to make Mu Zihuan go crazy. He was on behalf of the Red Eyebrow Army to encircle and suppress the Red Eyebrow Army. If it was just a defeat, he would not have the guts to attack the Duke.  I think it was probably because of something that Mu Zihuan couldn't bear, that's why he was so crazy, knowing that he couldn't do anything. " "Actually, I don't hate you, and I don't even blame you." He said.  Taking a breath, his face gradually returned to calm.  He is an old man, an old man who has seen too many ups and downs of life and death.  "This is how the world is. The winner determines the fate of the loser. Although this battle has not yet been fought, I know that the Duke of Guo cannot win. The Duke of Guo can no longer calm down and think about things, and no matter what you do, it seems  Very calm. Although this is the Duke of Guo's territory, the Duke of Guo cannot win against you who have the advantage of the people. " "I just hope that you don't go too far between me.  Although there are grievances, there is no sworn hatred. Speaking of which, if you hadn't come to provoke the Mu family in the first place, there would not have been any subsequent hostility.  The price of a life in your hands is not small. There are many people in Mu Mansion, but there are so many people I don¡¯t want to die. If someone must be buried with the Duke, count me among them." He looked at Fang Jie and said in a tone of voice.  Zhicheng: "I know that most of the rules in this world are that the winner must eradicate the weeds without leaving any troubles, so it is obviously ridiculous for me to tell you this. But what I want to say is, how many times did the Duke of Guo guard Eastern Xinjiang?  Ten years, Mu Mansion has kept Eastern Xinjiang stable for hundreds of years, is it enough in exchange for some people not dying?" Fang Jie did not answer, but looked at Mu Qinglin quietly.  He found that this old man was very different. After getting along with him in the past few days, he was sure that Mu Qinglin was not a treacherous person. He was just a person who respected and obeyed Mu Guangling, and perhaps devoted almost all his energy to Mu Mansion.  .  Maybe he has been working in Mu Mansion since he was very young, and has been living for others for decades, so much so that he has lost himself.  That's why he could say so calmly that if anyone needs to be buried with Mu Guangling, count me in.  "I have never looked down on Mu Guangling." Fang Jie was silent for a while and then said: "On the contrary, I have always admired what Mu Guangling did. This is not hypocrisy, but the truth. Back then, I was still a man who was running around the world just to survive.  Young man, I heard that there are two people in this empire named Dinghai Shenzhen. One is Luo Yao from the southwest, and the other is Mu Guangling from the east. With Luo Yao, the He people dare not invade from the north.  Don't dare to look up." When Mu Qinglin heard Fang Jie's words, there was a trace of gratitude in his eyes.  "No matter what Luo Yao has done, no matter what Mu Guangling has done now, for a long time, without them, there would be no peace and stability. The He people are barren but brutal and warlike. Without Luo Yao's suppression, there would be no peace and stability.  I don¡¯t know how many Han people have died in the southwest over the years. The rich people in Eastern Chu have ulterior motives. If Mu Guangling hadn¡¯t subdued them, they don¡¯t know what they would have been embezzled over the years.¡± Fang Jie poured a cup of tea for Mu Qinglin: ¡°Actually, I even had it.  I have thought that after defeating the foreigners, I would like to sit down and have a quiet talk with Mu Guangling. If he is willing to retire, I will choose a beautiful place for him to spend his old age. But I know this is too childish and ridiculous, so I just do it.  Just thinking about it." Mu Qinglin smiled bitterly.  "Why do you think Mu Guangling can't win this battle?" Fang Jie asked.  "There is a saying that the Duke of the State has told me many times. He said that the sages of the past have said that many people will get help if they are in good ways, but few will help if they are unjust. Therefore, he has been showing kindness to others for so many years, and does not regard himself as a high official. He treats the virtuous and corporal.  It's good, and it's good for the people. So for decades, the people have been obedient, and things have gone well. But who would have thought that it would only take a few stupid orders to ruin it all, and everyone would be happy.In the Mu Mansion, there are deviations everywhere. Especially after the battle against the Red Eyebrow Army in Shilixia a year ago, the reputation of the Mu Mansion and the reputation of the Duke were ruined.  " "Things that have been accumulated for decades of hard work are destroyed in one day. So it is really ridiculous and sad to think about it. The Duke of the country has loved his soldiers as his sons and his people as his sons for decades, but everything has changed in just one year.  The reason why I said that the Duke will be defeated is not that I am afraid of dying. Now the people of Eastern Xinjiang are not on the side of the Duke. Even the soldiers have begun to become unstable because of what happened in the past year. Such a team  How can we win with such people's support?" "After the battle against the Red Eyebrow Army, as soon as the news came out, the entire Eastern Xinjiang was shocked by the Jianghu people who were originally attached to Mu Mansion, and they left one after another.  The people who originally believed in Mu Mansion looked at each other angrily.  Although there are still many disciples in the mansion, most of the remaining people are idlers. They are just garbage. What is the use of keeping them?  These people stay here for the sake of wine, meat and money. Will they risk their lives for the Duke of the country?  " Mu Qinglin let out a long sigh: "I have also thought that one day the Duke of the country will rule the world, but he will be nothing more than a mirror, visible and intangible.  " Throughout the afternoon, Fang Jie was chatting with Mu Qinglin in the carriage. The two people talked about a lot of things. Fang Jie knew more about this Dongjiang, this Mu Mansion, and this Mu Guangling. When the old man began to recall the past  When the chatter box is opened, a lot of things will come out. These things are mostly trivial things, but they can tell a lot about people's hearts. Fang Jie's evaluation of Mu Guangling's actions in controlling Dongjiang in these years is actually not low.  : Although it¡¯s contrived, it has many real benefits. ¡°I¡¯m going to ask, are you planning to trick all the troops in Mu Mansion City out of the city? Where do you plan to take them?  I believe you have seen through the Duke's plan now. Although your target is still Malan Mountain, you are sure to win.  Are you going to take these nearly 100,000 elites to death?  " "No" Fang Jie shook his head: "When you asked me before if you could just kill Mu Guangling without harming others, I didn't give you an answer.  That's because I can't give you the answer. It's not up to me how many people will die in Dongjiang. I can only try to minimize the spread of the death outbreak.  The men and horses in the city, the false order I gave them was to go to Fenghuang Terrace instead of Malan Mountain." Fang Jie was silent for a while, seeming a little sad: "If Malan Mountain is the place where Mu Guangling must die, after he dies,  I must take over Mufu City, but the soldiers in the city are naturally full of respect for Mufu, and they will inevitably fight to the death.  There are 100,000 people defending the city. If I attack by force, how many people will die?  Even if these people die, they should die on the battlefield in a decisive battle with foreign enemies, not on the battlefield with their own people.  " Fang Jie said slowly: "So I transferred this team out in advance.  First, of course, he hopes to weaken Mu Guangling's strength and resolve the civil strife as soon as possible.  Second, it is to prevent the death of some undeserving people and not to let foreigners see the joke.  I'm not a good person, nor am I a good person, but I also know what to try to avoid.  " "Why don't you just come and fight the foreigners!  " Mu Qinglin suddenly became a little excited: "If you had not come to Mu Mansion, but led your troops to fight the foreigners directly, there would have been no such civil strife.  Even if there is, it will happen in the future. Why can't we wait until we work together to defeat the foreigners?  "    "I want, too.  " Fang Jie shook his head: "But answer me, will Mu Guangling sincerely join forces with me to resist the foreigners?  When I lead the Black Flag Army to fight the foreigners on the battlefield, will Mu Guangling resist stabbing me in the back?  Besides, I have never said that I don¡¯t want the land of Eastern Xinjiang. Now that I am here, Dongjiang will naturally be taken. Wherever the battle flag of my Black Flag Army goes, it is all land that I will conquer!  Mu Guangling knows this very well, so there can be no sincere cooperation between him and me.  "The only difference is" Fang Jie let out a long breath: "I put the foreign chaos first, while Mu Guangling regarded me as the first enemy."  " "But I feel that it is always your fault.  " Mu Qinglin said seriously. Fang Jie nodded and did not deny: "If I were Mu Guangling, I might die worse than him.  " Mu Qinglin didn't understand this at first, but it took him a while to realize its meaning. He didn't know whether Fang Jie's words were true or false. If they were true, then they would indeed be more tragic. Fang Jie's words  The meaning of this sentence is that if he were Mu Guangling, he would be willing to cooperate with others to resist foreign enemies. Because of his willingness, he might die worse than Mu Guangling. This is the reality of this world.  A little bit of humanity. ¡°Yes, you want to compete in the world.  " Mu Qinglin smiled bitterly, as if he had lost his temper. He knew he could not control it.However, nothing can be changed.  There is never anything in this world that can stop ambition with just a word, and the young man in front of him has begun to no longer hide his ambition.  If he was an old acquaintance of Fang Jie, he might be a little surprised by Fang Jie's change.  But when he met Fang Jie, Fang Jie was already a successful person.  For successful people, there seems to be nothing wrong with these choices.  I don¡¯t know how long it took before the silence in the carriage was broken again.  "I heard that you have been promoting the practice of dividing farmland into households in other places. This will indeed benefit the people and win the hearts of the people, but I also know that it may not matter if you do this in one city or one place, but if you  After you succeed, you may die miserably if you push it to the world." He said it very seriously, and it was definitely not a curse to vent his hatred.  Fang Jie leaned back, as if he didn¡¯t want to explain this.  "As far as I know," Mu Qinglin looked at Fang Jie and said, "Since ancient times, no dynasty has been established by relying on ordinary people. The founder of any country cannot do without the support of a wealthy family.  Therefore, there are so many ambitious emperors in the past and present, but no one dares to break up with the big families in the world. If they really break up, the world will suffer a deeper suffering than the war. " "And you,  Bear the brunt." He pointed to Fang Jie, so confident.  "Maybe." Fang Jie stretched his body and drank all the herbal tea in the cup: "Maybe what I do won't last long, and maybe I will die soon. For a person like me who is neither a kind person nor a good person.  Do you think it's stupid or idiotic to do this? I can obviously accept the world more smoothly and enjoy the support of those from wealthy families. If that's the case, I think I would be the emperor in Chang'an City now, right?  " Mu Qinglin nodded and did not deny it.  "Maybe you think I'm arrogant." Fang Jie took off the pipe that had not been touched for a long time from his waist, stuffed it with tobacco, lit it, and took a deep breath.  He had never been a smoker, but at this moment, he wanted to take a puff.  "I want to fight for the world to dominate the world, but I really don't value the word "throne", let alone think that my descendants will sit on the throne for thousands of generations. The world I want to fight for may not be the same as the fight in your mind.  The world is different, and if I explain it to you, it will be a very troublesome process. Even if you understand, you won¡¯t understand. I don¡¯t need your understanding, so I won¡¯t say it anymore.¡±  The smoke ring looks leisurely but is so heavy: "I want to fight for and dominate, so I have to be ruthless, decisive, and murderous. When I die one day, I hope that the world I have fought for will be gone.  Changed because of me. This world will become a little fairer and a little more stable, enough that I have never said this to others. Maybe this is why I came to this world. " "Now that I am here, I am.  , I can change." Fang Jie smiled: "Why don't you change it? I can't control it in the future. I only care about what happened when I was alive." Mu Qinglin was silent, he didn't understand.  But he understood the meaning of one sentence.  Fang explained that he had never told anyone this.  So Mu Qinglin knew that he was not far from death.
