Chapter 572: Recruits succeed, fighting for water
"Second brother...Second brother...!" Du Shangzhi's younger sister Qibao rushed out of her door excitedly and threw herself into Du Shangzhi's arms. However, unlike Qibao's intimateness, Qibao's nurse and some servants standing at the door looked panicked.
Because these people don’t think that the person wearing strange black clothes in front of them is Du Shangtuo, the bastard young master of his past. After all, in such a short time, how could a person have such a big change?
Just as Qibao's nurse ran over and wanted to say sorry and was about to take Qibao away.
Suddenly, Du Shangtuo, who was holding Qibao, spoke out: "Mom Xing... Thank you for your hard work..."
A voice from Xing Ma made Qibao's nurse stunned: "You...you...you are Young Master Shangpin?"
Du Shangtuo nodded with a smile: "I am Du Shangtuo..." After that, Du Shangtuo entered the Du family with Qibao. Unlike before, what was different from the previous one was that after Du Shangtuo came back this time, he would nod slightly to show his politeness when he saw the servants of the Du family. This nod directly made the servants of the Du family quickly see the New World, and were all surprised.
When he walked to the inner room, Du Shangzi put Qibao down, then took out a piece of chocolate from his pocket and smiled and said, "Look at what this is?"
"Chocolate...!" Qibao shouted happily. Then he took the chocolate from Du Shangzhi's hand into his hand: "Second brother, how could you have chocolate...!"
Du Shangtuo didn't say anything, but just smiled and said, "Eat quickly... After eating, there is still one piece, but this piece will not be eaten tomorrow. If you still want to eat it, then my second brother will bring it to you after a holiday in a few days."
"A piece of chocolate must have an excellent grade... Second brother, you finally grew up this time."
While speaking, a young man walked out of the inner courtyard, wearing Confucian outfit and smiling very warmly. Two girls were following the young man. When he saw the young man Du Shangdeng standing attentively and a military salute: "Brother... I'm sorry, Shangdeng once made me lose my heart...!"
A military salute made the young man, Du Shangcheng, smile slightly: "The prodigal son turned around and the gold will not be exchanged. The King of Qi is also a prodigal son. Now it has become a model for everyone. Second brother, you are not too late. As long as the Du family works together, they will definitely create new glory."
Du Shangsheng looked at Du Shangzhi's military salute and smiled comfortingly.
"You are really the second brother..." A girl came out. This girl was Du Shangzhi's sister Du Shangjiao, and the other girl was Cui's cousin Cui Ying...!
"Wow... This is the clothes of the new recruits of the Hu Ben Guard. They look so beautiful..." Du Shangjiao came to Du Shangzhi's side and looked up and down. After seeing it, she showed an incredible expression: "Second brother... has really changed a lot. If my mother and little mother see it, they will be shocked. By the way... Is there any chocolate?"
Du Shangjiao stretched out her hand to Du Shangzhi and smiled, "Cui Ying wants it too...!"
Du Shangtuo laughed and then took out two pieces of chocolate. At this time, Du Shangsheng quickly smiled and said, "Second brother, go quickly... If you leave later, the chocolate you have worked hard to get is gone."
In this way, Du Shangzhi was pulled into the yard of the Du family's mother. At this time, Cui Ke and Xiao Ju were also together. Du Shangsheng's happy voice suddenly came from outside the door: "Mother, little mother... the second brother is back, the second brother is back..."
Cui Ke and Xiao Ju were both happy. At this time, Du Shangzhuo walked into the room and saluted Cui Ke and Xiao Ju, shouting: "Du Shangzhuo, a four-row platoon in the first line of Hu Ben Guard Camp... salute to the eldest mother and mother...!"
"Ah...!" At this time, Du Shangdeng's appearance was really beyond Cui Ke Xiaoju's imagination. The person in front of him was not as good as a playboy. In just seven days, he changed from a playboy to an iron-blooded soldier. The two felt unprecedented joy.
As for this joy, Du Shangpin's father Du Rujing soon felt that although Du Rujing had never looked down on Du Shangpin before, he did not have a good expression on Du Shangpin, that was not because Du Shangpin was not motivated.
In this world, there are few parents who don’t love their children. When Du Rujing saw Du Shangtuo’s transformation this time, Du Rujing also felt Lao Huai’s comfort. This time, Du Shangtuo, who came back, lost his previous nonsense, was more steady, rational, and sensible at this time. That night, Du Rujing made an exception to the change of his second son.
This glass of wine is more of a relief and happiness.
Of course, it was not only Du Rujing who was happy tonight. Many playboys were very satisfied with the change of their bastard son. At the beginning, the words of the playboys who smeared Li You were self-defeating. During the morning court the next day, the playboys who stayed were talking about their son's changes, while those playboys who eliminated themselves clenched their fists tightly.
Little boy, I'll deal with you when I go back...!
Li You's playboy recruits were very successful this time. The transformation of these playboy recruits directly made many ministers give Li You's Tiger Guards a thumbs up. Not only training troops, but also training the mind. This is the real trainee.
Because of this, Li You also received private respect from many ministers. He might have looked down on Li You before, but this time his son's change really made these ministers look at Li You differently.
However, these different glances also aroused Li Tai's jealousy. Li Tai felt Li You's threat. If it was Li You's threat alone, then it would be fine. This time, Li Zhi was behind Li You.
Unlike Li You, Li Zhi is also a legitimate son.
This time, Li Zhi returned from the new recruit camp of the Hu Ben Guard. He was tanned, but he showed his firm military side. Li Shimin was very happy to see Li Zhi who was tanned and changed a lot this time, and obviously his attitude towards Li Zhi was better.
This is the threat Li Tai felt, so Li Tai was about to fight for it. He could not sit and wait for death. If he sat and waited for death, perhaps Li Shimin's verbal promise would be invalid and his position as the crown prince would become someone else's.
So Li Tai was about to use his killer move, but this killer move was a bit scary. Even if Li Tai used it, he would be a little ruthless. However, looking at Li Zhi who was becoming more and more favored, Li Tai's heart was really in chaos.

"This is our village. If you dare to come here again, we will be welcome." The sun at noon was very poisonous, but at this time, at a dam, about 100 villagers were facing each other with their own farm tools.
This time the villagers were extremely fierce. In front of these villagers, the two villagers also stared at each other.
"You went to the village to block the dam... Then our Xiamen Village has no water at all. It's time to grow food. You don't give us any water at all. How can you let us live in Xiamen Village?"
"How you live in Xiamen Village has nothing to do with our Shangmen Village. We only need to ensure that we are alive. The dam is blocked here to store water. The water used to be large, so we can leave some for you, but this year there is no water, so we can't release water for you. This is the dam of our Shangmen Village. If anyone dares to open the dam of our Shangmen Village, we will have a lifelong life with him."
When the leader of Shangmen Village shouted, the rest of Shangmen Village also shouted: "That's right, I'll have a life with him..."
But the people in Xiamen Village are not easy to bully.
"You stop the water, but you don't want to give us a drop of water, that's to see us die... OK... I'll die sooner or later die. That's better than fighting with you, and you can also pull some cushions before death."
When the leader of Xiamen Village shouted, the people of Xiamen Village also shouted, and then they heard the leader of Xiamen Village shouting: "Call me..."
When the people from Xiamen Village moved, the people from Shangmen Village did not restrain themselves. The leader of Shangmen Village also shouted: "Beat them to death..."
More than a hundred people were fighting together. Don’t think that this was a game. It was really a game. In ancient times, there was no modern enlightenment, no water, no food, and they were going to die. They had no family foundation to survive the winter.
With this armed fight, I was also very happy to say hello to death, and in this armed fight, several of them had the ability to work, which made the fight more and more serious.
What was even more speechless was that in the chaos, there was a group of people who accidentally passed by here, but they were mistakenly thought to be people from the government. After the melee between the two sides, they also launched an attack on them.
After an armed fight, sixteen of the more than 100 people died, which can be said to have suffered heavy losses.
However, after the fight, no one reported the officials, but they dragged the bodies of their dead back to the village. This is the rule. This is not only the Tang Dynasty, but also the Ming Dynasty, the Song Dynasty, the Qing Dynasty, and even modern times.
Water is the foundation of crops, and crops are the foundation of the people. People can give everything for water. Fighting is the most basic. Dead people will not stop. On the contrary, after the death, the fight will not stop and will only escalate.
Fortunately, although there was no official report to Shangmen Village and Xiamen Village this time, people who were beaten by the passers-by were beaten by the government and reported to the official report to the official. There was no way. They were wronged and walked by well, and were directly beaten by people from the two villages. What is this?
So they reported to the official, and soon Li Shimin learned about this matter. Li Shimin also realized that something was wrong near Chang'an and immediately sent someone to investigate. If this was not investigated, it would be impossible to know. As soon as the investigation was shocked, the water level of the canals around Chang'an dropped, and even dried streams appeared in other places.
What does this mean? This shows that there are signs of drought in Chang'an. You should know that this is not a good phenomenon. Li Shimin immediately began to convene a court meeting and was ready to start effective intervention in drought.
