Prime Minister's Mansion
Prime Minister Xu is playing chess with someone.
The man sitting opposite Xu Cheng was about forty years old, with a thin face and long beard.
"Teacher is a little uneasy today, is it because he was recruited into the palace this morning?"
Prime Minister Xu let out a long laugh and placed a piece on the chessboard.
"Your Majesty is in trouble, the prince and the King of Jin are fighting endlessly, which is really not good for the country's society."
The man smiled casually and put down a chess piece on the chessboard, "This matter should not be the concern of our courtiers. Your Majesty is only seriously ill now. His Majesty is not there, and there is also the Prince."
"I'm afraid that King Jin's side is not so simple, and there will be changes." Prime Minister Xu suddenly sighed: "Lin Jian, the old guy has been smart all his life, but he was confused when he came to the end. His Majesty's sudden ailment this time really made him pay back. It was unexpected to have the man behind him."
The man just smiled and dropped another one.
Some people can figure it out, some people can't figure it out. For example, his teacher is a person who can think openly, and he is a high-ranking person, so why should he be greedy for the power of the dragon. How can people be the same? There will always be someone who can't think of it! The world is bustling, all come for the benefit, the world is bustling, all goes for the benefit, the ancients honestly did not deceive him.
"Teacher, do you need to ask King Jin to leave the capital? Presumably, His Royal Highness the Prince must want to see this scene."
Prime Minister Xu pondered for a while, then stroked his beard, "No, we'd better wait and see how things change."
"Aren't you worried about the instability of the country?"
This made Prime Minister Xu smile wryly, "Your Majesty himself doesn't agree, why should we do it!"
"I'm afraid it's going to get messed up."
"You, the Censor of the Right Capital, have only been in office for a long time. It is still important to protect yourself. If they want to make trouble, they will make trouble."
"Some people will say that the students' bodies are vegetarian meals."
"Haha, the situation is unstable now, and even the teacher is reluctant to meddle in his own business, so don't be a big head as a student." Xu Chengxiang laughed and said in a low voice: "The Duchayuan is at a time of chaos, Prince King Jin will never be allowed to stay in the capital safely, and you only have a few people in your hands, so it's not easy to get ahead at this time. Anyway, we don't want to be greedy for the power of the dragon, so it's better to wait and see. "
"Students know."
In the study, only the sound of chess pieces being dropped could be heard.
Prime Minister Xu glanced at the student opposite, and suddenly sighed: "You brat seems to be peaceful and indifferent, but in fact, you are also a toiler who worries about the country and the people."
People in their forties were called boys by Prime Minister Xu, but they were indeed boys because Prime Minister Xu was nearly seventy years old.
"Aren't you?"
Prime Minister Xu was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly, "We are the same, it's just a pity..."
Prime Minister Xu didn't finish what he said later, but Zhao Jingheng, who was born as his student, knew it well.
Sora has an ambition, but is useless. Although Emperor Xi was not a foolish monarch, he was not a wise monarch. He was stubborn, too conservative in his thinking, sticking to the rules and unwilling to innovate and change.
The Daxi Dynasty looks like a peaceful and prosperous age, but no one knows what is in this peaceful and prosperous age better than them.
The rich are too rich, the poor people will always be so poor, and there are too many people who are embezzling and perverting the law, but they are protected by officials and go unpunished. Zhumen's wine and meat stink, and the road has frozen bones, that's all.
Sometimes it's not a good thing for a person to be too ambitious, such as his teacher, who has been in the officialdom for decades, ups and downs, and finally put away his arrogance. He can sit on the position of prime minister only because of his interest.
Be a person with interest, do things with interest, and never touch things that shouldn't be contaminated.
Who would have thought that Prime Minister Xu, who has always given the impression to outsiders of being upright, daring to speak out, and jealous of evil, is actually a mediocre person who is well versed in the way of knowledge
Being upright and daring to speak out is just to allow him to do this, and he will do this.
The reason why people know interest and change is because they suffer enough. Prime Minister Xu is an example, so Zhao Jingheng, his student, doesn't need to waste time, and he doesn't need to go through all kinds of blows to understand this truth. This is his luck, but he can't let it go!
"Teacher, do you still remember your original intention?"
This made Prime Minister Xu unable to speak for a long time, and his expression was in a trance.
"Prince is not Mingjun..." It was difficult for Zhao Jingheng to say these words, "Neither is King Jin."
The sunspot in Prime Minister Xu's hand suddenly fell to the ground, and he forced a smile, "Then who do you think will be Ming Jun?"
Zhao Jingheng shook his head slowly, "I don't know."
"Since we don't know, let's see."
Look, how long will it take
***
There is also news from King Yun in the capital, but it is definitely not as agile as King Jing.
Seeing that Emperor Xi was in a coma, the prince was in charge of the country, the King of Jin stayed in the capital due to his leg injury, and King Jing was still silent, King Yun was so anxious that he was restless.
He is not a person who can worry too much. Many things are necessary to save his life and protect his wife and children. His greatest wish is to guard the princess and children to live the life of his own free king, and then he will throw all the accumulation in his hands to King Jing. .
After throwing it away, he was really happy, but after a while, he found that King Jing had not moved, and he became anxious.
At this time, he didn't have the time to play any games with the paralyzed younger brother, so he quietly went to King Jing's Mansion in Jingzhou. No one said hello before coming, and when the outsiders reported that a relative was coming to the mother's house, King Jing's reaction was a little stunned.
His mother's relatives lived in the mansion, and where were there any relatives, let Fushun go over to take a look, only to know that it was King Yun.
This guy is so bold!
King Jing thought so, so he went to see King Yun.
The chubby face is rarely not a serious smile, but very dignified.
"Is there anything I can send you a letter?" King Jing said lightly, and sat down opposite King Yun.
"You have to change your temper. No matter what you do, you will be slow. It's going to pierce the sky over there. You have no reaction at all."
"The Lone King didn't tell you in a letter, but it has already begun to move."
King Yun rolled his eyes and said angrily, "I didn't see it." Then he continued to ramble, "If you keep doing it like this, I really have to think about whether it's time to steal my mother from the palace, and then the whole family. Run away."
King Jing glanced at him in amazement, not expecting this person to have such an idea.
"Then what about your subordinates?"
"All dismissed."
"Under the whole world, is it not the king's land, and the coast of the land is not the king's ministers."
King Jing said these words slowly, and took a sip from the teacup.
King Yun slumped on the chair in despair, and cried out, "I regret it. I knew I would put some pressure on the prince and the King of Jin. Why put pressure on you, the slow child."
"You dare?"
Well, he dare not!
King Yun wiped his face, not to mention whether people looked down on his hands or not, the first reaction was to be suspicious. You have accumulated so much, what do you want to do? He is too weak, if people want to stretch out their hands and squeeze him to death, he really dare not touch those two people.
"You just bully me so that I can talk, how can I say that I am older than you, is there such a rude person to my brother?"
"You're older than me, just a few months."
"A big day is also a long day!"
"You risked being found out to tell me this?"
Seeing that the topic was getting farther and farther away, King Jing said with a light expression.
"I'm just here to urge you to hurry, hurry, and act quickly, or it will be too late."
"It's already moved." After a pause, King Jing said again, "Now wait and see what happens."
"What's more decisive is that neither of us can escape. Don't you know the danger in this? Come, come, let me tell you... "
King Yun changed his seated position and spoke eloquently, "Those two are small-bellied chicken intestines, the crown prince will not let us go in five or ten years when he ascends the throne. Even if we are both honest, he will at most give us a little time to survive."
"Don't believe what I said, the prince and the queen seem to be extremely noble, but in fact there is always someone who is blocking them, and later became three. The prince is too depressed, and he is too depressed, and he will go to extremes in the future. As for the king of Jin, that Not to mention people, he will definitely be able to ascend the throne without the help of King Qi, who is cruel and defiant. Now King Jin endures him for the great cause, how can he continue to endure it later, and King Jin himself is from his own background. Can you forget? He will definitely not allow such a vassal king to continue to exist…”
King Jing was a little surprised, but he didn't expect the fourth child to think so deeply. If it wasn't for the reason of his previous life, he wouldn't know these things at all. He didn't expect that he would be able to analyze the right point with only some cognition.
"You analyzed it very well."
That's what you said! King Yun snickered proudly in his heart, but his face was fearless, "No one understands the temperament of these two better than me!"
"You suffered a lot when you were young?"
King Yun's face stiffened, and he smiled again, "Yes, this is an enemy. We must analyze them thoroughly before we can defeat them one by one."
"This king didn't offend you, did he?"
This made King Yun's face shake again, and suddenly he felt a little embarrassed, "I remember you gave me a plate of sweet-scented osmanthus cake when I was a child."
That time was the most hungry time he had grown so big. This man gave him a plate of sweet-scented osmanthus cake. He was happy to take it back and eat it with his mother. Who knew that before he got to his palace, he was killed by that little boy from King Qi. When someone saw it, he knocked it over and asked him to climb on the ground to pick it up.
King Jing was stunned for a moment, and there seemed to be such a thing in the deepest part of his mind.
When he was young, he did not worry about food and clothing, and he had a great eunuch who would take good care of him. But he knew that King Yun's life was not easy when he was young. The sage said that he was too fat and ordered him to lose weight, but someone took this as a raft and deliberately scolded the mother and son.
The memory made King Yun's eyes darken, and it was only for a moment, he smiled again, "You must work hard, my brother's good life in the future will depend on you."
King Jing glanced at the other party complicatedly, but did not speak.
King Yun changed his posture on the chair, "You really acted? Why didn't I see it."
King Yun also had spies in the capital, and King Jing was clear about this.
"Let you see, everyone else should know."
"Tell me, let me go back and get a good night's sleep."
"cannot."
King Yun gave King King a complicated look, and said dejectedly, "Okay, don't say it if you don't say it. Remember to throw it up if you have any means, and don't be a woman."
The kindness of women? What's the solution
"Anyway, you just need to remember it. It doesn't matter if you use some disgraceful means when necessary. What we seek is just a way to survive. And that barbarian under your command is very good at martial arts. Both were assassinated."
The more King Yun said it, the more absurd it became, and the more King Jing couldn't understand it.
"What do you mean by these words?"
"You don't need to worry about it, anyway, just remember it. I won't tell you any more, you have to hurry back, and the princess will be angry again if you go back late."
King Jing knew that King Yun's family had a famous concubine in the capital, so he didn't say anything and asked Fushun to send him away.
Sitting there, he continued to think about what King Yun said just now, the benevolence of a woman, Yan Manzi, assassination... These few things couldn't come together.
Unable to figure it out, King Jing simply thought about it. How could the benevolence of a woman be at such a time? Or is his usual silence making people misunderstood
