"The girl means that they are also likely to become a serious problem for the empire or us?" Although Wu Feng said in a questioning tone, he could not hear any inclination.
"That's not entirely true. The Taiping Religion started by using religion to deceive the stupid people at the lower level. Without these lower levels to support them, I'm afraid they wouldn't be able to achieve such a big posture now. It's just how to appease this group of people and try their best to maintain it. The relationship with the local secular upper-class forces that have moved closer to them needs to test the Taiping people's tightrope walking skills. If they are not careful, it will lead to great changes; although their military strength is growing rapidly, they have to compete with the empire. The huge military institutions that have been established for hundreds of years are not on the same level to put it bluntly. It is just that the imperial power is scattered too much, and a few people with ulterior motives are manipulating it, so the current scenes will occur. If someone I don’t think the Taiping Sect can last long if they can unify the military power within the empire. Thirdly, the Taiping Sect has mixed good and bad internals and lacks the ability to govern. Although they control the territory of the two counties, they do not have enough administrative officers for their use. Many of them At this time, we have to rely on the original officials of the empire. Are these people really turning towards them? I am afraid that even they themselves know in their hearts that if the situation changes, will they turn against them?" Lin Yuexin went through every word. After careful consideration, Wu Feng nodded.
"Haha, what the girl said is true. The fate of the Taiping Religion depends on two aspects, their own development and changes and the empire's strategies and methods to deal with it. I'm just worried about whether the empire is still capable of dealing with it now? Especially now. At this critical moment, to be honest with the girl, according to the information that Li has, the Northern Military Region of the Empire seems to have reached some kind of tacit understanding with the Taiping Army. The performance of the Imperial City Guard Corps in Qinghe Mansion was equally strange, and compared with the weakness of the Taiping Army in Kansai Performance, what are their intentions for a comprehensive contraction?" Wu Feng meaningfully put forward his opinion, although he did not point it out clearly, it was enough.
Lin Yuexin nodded slightly as if she had some understanding, but the expression on her pretty little face became more solemn, "Sir, do you mean that the Taiping Army is carrying out some secret plan?"
"It's hard to say, but with the power of Bo Jinchen, he once caused a huge storm in Kansai, but now he lost Lujiang and Bashan first, and then Jincheng, and lost the city and land one after another, but there was no reaction at all. Compared with the aggressive momentum shown by the Taiping Army in the early days, it is very different and is really a bit suspicious." Wu Feng did not directly answer in the affirmative, but just raised the doubts and let the other party think for themselves.
Taking a deep breath, Lin Yuexin said nothing, just lowered her head and thought carefully, obviously attaching great importance to this issue.
"Miss Lin doesn't need to worry too much. I have also considered that the abnormal performance of the Taiping Army during this period may be related to their excessive expansion in the early stage and their current inability to meet their expectations. However, we must take precautions. Judging from the current situation, the Taiping Army Even if there is some conspiracy in the dark, I judge that it will not target you and my family, but there is a high possibility that it will come towards the empire." Seeing the girl looking like she was concentrating on thinking, Wu Feng couldn't help but comfort her.
"When the nest is overturned, there are no eggs left. Isn't Mr. Li worried that the Taiping Religion may bring the Kaman and Machihan people into the game early and even affect the fate of the entire Tanghe people?" Lin Yuexin seemed to have already I guessed something and sighed secretly.
"Hehe, Miss Lin's words should be said to be a fire at the city gate, which affects the fish in the pond. But Li is neither an egg nor a fish. Li's fate is in his own hands and he will not let them influence it. I believe that the Lin family Is that the case?" With a faint smile, Wu Feng replied proudly, with a sky-high domineering expression.
Lin Yuexin looked at the guy in front of her with some ambivalence. He was a young man who was determined to stick to one side. Compared with the other two brothers, his two brothers seemed to be much worse than each other. They were more than one level behind in terms of ambition and strategic vision. It came to this conclusion. A depressing conclusion made Lin Yuexin feel inexplicably depressed.
"The Lin family cannot afford Mr. Li's praise, but the northwest and northern Luzon are prosperous under Mr. Li's rule. Mr. Li personally led the army to conquer the east and west, and was invincible, but the younger sister admired her so much that she didn't know that As the situation changes in the future, what is Mr. Li’s best plan to deal with it?”
The topic finally turned to the key point of today's discussion.
"Girl, can you please change your name? If Mr. Li comes to Mr. Li, it will make Li panic. Why don't you just call Li by his name?" Wu Feng frowned, then said with a generous smile. .
A blush quietly appeared on her face. Although Lin Yuexin was quite generous and forthright, she had never addressed her so affectionately to a strange young man. Fortunately, she was from a wealthy family after all, so she responded quickly: "Okay, then the little girl has gone overboard. , depending on how old Mr. Li is and how old the younger sister is, it’s better for the younger sister to call Mr. Li eldest brother, and for elder brother Li, stop calling me “girly” and just call me “Yuexin”.”
There was a burst of secret joy in his heart. The goal of doing so much preliminary work was finally achieved, and the relationship between the two was successfully brought closer. In this way, the conversation between the two could be much easier. Wufeng immediately climbed up the pole: "Haha, Also, no matter how old Li is, it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to call Yue Xin Li’s eldest brother.”
After a pause, Wu Feng brought the topic back: "I think Yue Xin's attachment to the empire is a bit unusual, and it seems to be somewhat incompatible with the Lin family's current relationship with the empire."
Gently stroking her somewhat disheveled hair, Lin Yuexin had an unspeakable expression in her eyes, "How should I put it, Yue Xin has always been fascinated by the culture and art of the Tang people, and the empire, as the representative of the Tang people, has been established for hundreds of years. During this period, the culture and art of our Tang people entered an unprecedented period of development, creating one cultural flourishing after another. Calligraphy, painting, music, sculpture, and architecture all entered a high-level stage. Such an empire flourished for a while. What she is seeing is that she will be destroyed and sunk in her lifetime, and it is really difficult for Yue Xin to witness this scene with her own eyes."
The girl's passionate words resonated in Wu Feng's heart. He recalled that when he was traveling alone in the Central and Western Continent, wherever he went, anyone who knew he was from the Tang tribe would praise the Tang tribe's long history, culture and glorious past. I am often proud of my artistic level. I remember that when I was still working-study at Heidelberg University, I almost drew swords with my classmates because they argued about the merits of their respective national cultures. If the classmates around me had not dissuaded me, it would have almost led to a dispute. What about the bloodshed.
Seeing that Wu Feng, who was standing opposite her, was distracted for a moment, with a confused look on his face, as if he was recalling something. Lin Yuexin just waited quietly without interrupting the other person. She knew that it was also a good idea to evoke someone's memories. A good thing, at least it shows that this person once had a dream.
After a while, Wu Feng jumped out of the long river of memories. He felt more and more that he fell in love with the fragile-looking girl in front of him. Talking to her was undoubtedly a kind of enjoyment, which could fully satisfy his body and mind. Rest and release, and even let myself feel some freshness that I have never felt before, some freshness that I have not felt in my other girlfriends. Is it because I don't pay much attention to this aspect in the first place, or is this woman in front of me really related to him? It was different, he couldn't confirm it, maybe it was both.
"I'm sorry, Yue Xin, I was a little distracted. Yue Xin's words reminded me of some happy moments when I was young. Talking to Yue Xin was really a pleasant experience." Seeing the disbelief on the other person's shy face With a look on his face, Wufeng quickly added: "This is the truth. Li Wufeng never says anything against his will, especially in front of women."
With a "chick" smile, Lin Yuexin half-covered her face with a round fan and said with a smile: "Brother Li is only in his early twenties this year. He actually used words like when he was young to say that before, my younger sister was only a few years younger than Brother Li." , so is Brother Li hinting that my little sister is not too young?"
"Haha, Yue Xin is really good at association. How could I have such an idea? It's just that the study tour life in my youth is really unforgettable. It would be great if we could turn back time. Unfortunately, this is just a kind of yearning of people. ." Speaking of this, Wu Feng was even more embarrassed.
While listening to Wu Feng's emotion with interest, Lin Yuexin was a little surprised that the young man in front of her who was so majestic and ambitious just now was now infinitely sentimental, surprised that there was such a delicate and warm side deep in his heart. , she couldn't help but want to dig out this man who was so fascinated by outsiders. According to the Lin family's intelligence, this man's experience for a long time before entering the Imperial Army was blank, even for the Imperial Army. There are only a few sentences about his time in the top-secret files of the * Ministry, and no one knows the specific circumstances. For such a fascinated man to indulge in his feelings in front of him can only explain one problem. This man He has an extraordinary good impression of himself, which allows him to open his heart in front of him.
"Then what is it that makes brother so unforgettable?" Lin Yuexin was moved by the other person's feelings. Lin Yuexin also felt a little confused and obsessed at this time. She found that she was becoming more and more interested in the man in front of her. He seems to want to know everything about the other person.
After Wu Feng hesitated for a moment, he casually recounted the interesting things about his study tour and the highlights. Lin Yuexin couldn't help but be moved by it. The room was filled with laughter and laughter, completely forgetting the important military affairs he was talking about just now. Both of them seemed to have returned to the carefree era a few years ago.
Pleasant time always passed quickly, and even the sensible maid did not disturb the two of them who were chatting. Unknowingly, Wu Feng even completely forgot the purpose of coming here. Maybe subconsciously, he didn't want to let them go. Those so-called important military affairs bothered him. In his heart, it was a rare opportunity for him to wait for such a wonderful time to relax, not to mention that the person he was talking to was the woman he had long admired.
