Chapter 166: Kefa let go

In the past few days, Zhou Han often was absent-minded and often stared in a daze day and night, hoping that Li Xin would come back. Fortunately, five days later, Li Xin got the matter of Huaian Prefecture and returned to Yangzhou.

Xu Shao also brought Shi Kefa's family back safely. Speaking of which, Shi Kefa was really a clean official. His family had two small courtyards, including old parents, an old wife, and no children. Therefore, when Xu Shao led his people to break into Shi Kefa's family at night, Shi Kefa's family of three was taken out effortlessly.

As soon as he returned to Yangzhou, Hong Niang truthfully revealed the story of seeing Shi Kefa and was a little uneasy.

Li Xin held her hand and smiled and said, "Matchmaker, you have done so much for me. This is my good friend. We are husband and wife. I won't say anything thanks. I'll go find Shi Kefa now to see what he thinks."

"Um!"

The Hongniang breathed a sigh of relief and smiled silly, "I'm afraid you will blame me. I'll be relieved if you say this. Go quickly. After convinced Shi Caofu, I can relax."

Li Xin smiled and said, "You go back early and wash it. I will hand you the public food tonight!"

At first, when Li Xin mentioned that she was handing over public grain, she didn't understand what it meant. After a little explanation, she understood. This must be the statement in another life. In fact, it was quite vivid to think about it. She handed over public grain to her wife, well, it should be!

"Then...will you have any fish outside?"

The Hongmao bit her mouth and asked shyly.

The Matchmaker may not be the most beautiful, but at this moment, it is the most beautiful in Li Xin's eyes. In an instant, he had the urge to mourn the Matchmaker on the spot. He just looked at the female soldiers around him and held back, and smiled: "I'll let you check tonight!"

"Bang!"

The red lady blushed her cheeks and gently pounded Li Xin’s chest in shame, but her heart was full of sweetness. She liked the relationship between her husband and wife with Li Xin very much, and she felt more and more that she had married the right person.

Li Xin brought Xu Shao with him, and Shi Kefa and his family of three came to the courtyard.

"Dad, mom?"

When Shi Kefa saw his old parents, he was stunned on the spot. Then he exuded anger in his eyes and stared at Li Xin. He was not stupid either. The fact was obvious. Li Xin tied up his parents and wife!

"Xianzhi!"

Shi Kefa's mother hurriedly said, "Don't blame Commander Li. You are an official in Huai'an. You don't understand what life you live in Kaifeng. Li Chuang once attacked Kaifeng. People were in panic at that time, but fortunately they defeated Li Chuang. Now there are rumors that Li Chuang will join forces with Cao Cao to attack. Thinking that Li Chuang originally had more than 100,000 troops, Cao Cao's troops were not less than 100,000 troops, and more than 200,000 troops were besieged. If the city was broken and the soldiers were in chaos, what should we do if our family was old and weak!"

Shi Ke's father was even more powerful and said to the face: "Along the way, Commander Li's people took good care of us. Commander Li helped our family escape from the sea of ​​suffering and sent us to Yangzhou to reunite with you. What's your face? Repaying kindness with grudges and being a son of man is a waste. Why don't you kneel down and kowtow to your benefactor to apologize?"

Shi Kefa was extremely embarrassed and didn't feel angry. He really didn't expect that his parents would stand on Li Xin's side. He was a filial son. When he thought about his parents' accusations, he felt guilty, but he could never kowtow to Li Xin.

Xu Shao laughed aside, and nothing was easy to say.

It was Shi Kefa's wife who advised: "My husband, thanks to Commander Li, I'm afraid Kaifeng will have to be closed down if it's a few days later. You should thank Commander Li."

Shi Kefa had a dark face and said embarrassedly.

Li Xin smiled: "Uncle and aunt, can you go back to the inner room first? I have a few heartfelt words with Cao Fu."

"Commander Li is polite, let's go in now!"

Shi Kefa's family of three entered the house.

In the courtyard, only Li Xin, Shi Kefa and Xu Shao were left.

Li Xin didn't say anything, and looked directly at Shi Kefa. Shi Kefa looked at the big tree with a blank expression. Xu Shao wanted to say anything, but judging from this posture, he still said nothing.

The atmosphere in the courtyard was extremely dull. This was the momentum before the showdown. Li Xin was an arms dealer in his previous life and had a place in the underground world. Many presidents of small countries were timid with him. Moreover, his identity was the chairman of the New York Chinese Chamber of Commerce. Whenever he returned to China in this capacity, the relevant departments would meet him. I don’t know how many big scenes he had seen, but he looked calm and composed.

On the contrary, Shi Kefa gradually couldn't hold on anymore. He sighed and asked, "Mr. Li, what is etiquette?"

Li Xindao: "Etiquette is order. Confucius restored Zhou rituals. Because the rituals and music of various countries in the Spring and Autumn Period were abolished, the morality of the king was deteriorated, Dong Zhongshu respected Confucianism alone, and because of the controversy among a hundred schools of thought, it was not conducive to the unification of the dynasty. The Southern Song Dynasty had the rituals of Cheng and Zhu, because half of the country was trapped in the barbarians, and people were panicked. When they reached this dynasty, they still respected Cheng and Zhu, because the emperor discovered that Cheng and Zhu could help him to maintain his country forever.

But there is no immortal dynasty in the world? The times of heaven are changing, and people's hearts are not old, and etiquette should also change according to the times of heaven and man's hearts. During the Zhengde period, the rise of mind learning shows that Cheng and Zhu are no longer suitable for the times. Unfortunately, the learning of mind is too one-sided. All things are only mindful and moral, but people's hearts are unpredictable. How can there be any morality in today's world? Therefore, the old monk took a craft and worshipped Buddha, and men wore women's clothes to sway, but they were not ashamed of the habit of breaking sleeves, but rather proud. May I ask Caofu, is it a stick used to stir up shit?

All signs have shown that the present world is an era of collapse in rituals and music. If etiquette is not rebuilt, the world will not be peaceful. And you, holding on to the incompleteness and not keeping pace with the times, is a foolish loyalty. Is there only Chongzhen in your heart and no people with great suffering?"

Shi Kefa's whole body was trembling, his face was distorted, and he was clearly suffering.

"Caofu!"

Xu Shao called out worriedly.

"Huh~~"

Shi Kefa sighed deeply, waved his hand, and said, "Mr. Li, what is your so-called etiquette?"

Li Xin said: "The world is not the world of one family, but the world of the people of the world!"

"oh?"

Shi Kefa said inexplicably: "Who will be the emperor in the world? If there is an emperor, wouldn't it be the world of one family?"

Li Xin explained: "History has always been moving forward. Primitive humans, mattresses, drinking blood, and later Shennong tasted hundreds of herbs, Huangdi established a system, and dynasties have come step by step. However, since the chaos in the world at the end of the Tang Dynasty, history has lost its direction. The Song Dynasty was twice destroyed by the hands of foreign races. The Yuan Dynasty was a shame for China. Although the Ming Dynasty established the country as the right, it has never been right in ancient times, but what else is there in the Ming Dynasty today? For hundreds of years, my China has been stagnant. This is an abnormal phenomenon. In the final analysis, it is not suitable for the etiquette.

What I want to do is to replace the family and the representative system. After all, the wisdom of the people cannot be harmed forever. The people will eventually awaken and be the master of their own country!"

Shi Kefa's whole body was shocked, but his face was still confused.

Xu Shao urgently called out: "Caofu, Mr. Li is the wise ruler of the world. What else do you have to hesitate about?"

Li Xin also said: "I know that many places of Caopu dou don't understand, but practice has made true knowledge. If Caopu is willing to stay, he will gradually understand."

“Oh ~~”

Shi Kefa sighed heavily: "Commander-in-chief should not call me the governor of the grain. Now that matter has come, I have no face to call him a minister of the Ming Dynasty!"

Xu Shao suddenly showed excitement, and it was obvious that Shi Kefa let go.
