Kou Ji and Cao Tong were very happy, but Liu Heng murmured, "It's good for you two. Now that you have great power, you have suffered me, and I have no money. Those people under me are just a stick and a stick. It's here. The censorship secretary’s office has been so long and there is no movement at all. Not only did he fail to snatch power from others, but he was forced to go round and round."
Kou Ji and Cao Tong shook their heads and smiled bitterly.
Most of the people under Kou Ji and Cao Tong are scholars, and they learn government affairs quickly.
Coupled with the help of Kou Ji and Cao Tong, the seizure of power is naturally quick.
The people in Liu Heng's hands are mostly mixed greenskins, and they don't know much. When they run into a small official in the office, they are as cute as a mouse meeting a cat.
Let a group of mice take the power of the cat
Pure wishful thinking.
It's not that Liu's residence did not admit scholars.
Liu Mei's background is not good. Although he is literate and hyphenated, he has limited knowledge. In order to make up for his shortcomings, he recruited many scholars.
He even built a courtyard on the front of the mansion for those scholars to study their knowledge.
So there are a lot of scholars in Liu's mansion.
But Liu Mei did not send one to Liu Heng.
Liu Mei did not allow Liu Heng to go into office, so naturally he would not support him, and it was impossible to transfer scholars from the mansion to him.
Looking at Liu Heng, his face was aggrieved.
Kou Ji and Cao Tong looked at each other and smiled at each other.
Cao Tong arched his hands, "I'm going to deal with government affairs first, you guys talk."
As soon as Cao Yu left, Kou Ji leaned in front of Liu Heng, "I will talk to your father again?"
Liu Heng nodded first, and then said with a look of embarrassment: "Can it work? Will my father agree?"
Kou Ji smiled heartily: "I've talked to your father once, and I don't care about one more time."
Liu Heng threw down the wine bottle and got up to salute Kou Ji, "Thank you, brother..."
Kou Ji patted Liu Heng on the shoulder and said nothing.
Kou Ji left Liu Heng in the public house. He left the public house and went to the main hall. He confessed to his servants and gave a good mention to the criminal secretary.
Afterwards, he went out of the Criminal Division, sat on the sedan chair, and went round and round to the wine shop where he met Liu Mei.
He still ordered a few dishes, two jugs of wine, sitting there and pouring himself.
The street outside the wine shop is the only way for Liu Mei to return to the house every day.
Kou Ji is confident that he can wait for Liu Mei here.
really.
It didn't take long before I saw Liu Mei cross the horse and walked over slowly.
As usual, Kou Ji threw a few large sums of money to the second person of the wine shop, and asked the second person of the wine shop to invite Liu Mei in.
Xiao Er took the money, went out of the wine shop, got close to Liu's house, craned his neck and muttered to Liu Mei on the horseback.
Liu Mei jumped off his horse and followed Xiao Er into the wine shop.
This time, he was not as overbearing as he was last time, and after entering the wine shop, he did not let the generals disperse the crowd.
Liu Mei, with a dark face, walked to Kou Ji's side, flicked his whip, and sat opposite Kou Ji.
"Boy, are you looking for me over and over again, are you annoying?"
Kou Ji handed over, "I have seen Uncle Liu..."
"Humph… "
Liu Mei snorted coldly, raised her head, and didn't want to talk to him.
After the ceremony, Kou Ji poured wine for Liu Mei and smiled calmly: "I don't want to find Uncle Liu. As long as Uncle Liu promises Liu Heng to be an official, the kid will never bother you again."
Liu Mei lowered her head, glanced at Kou Ji, and said coldly: "I still said that, I won't let Saburo go into office."
Kou Ji seemed to have expected Liu Mei to give such an answer, so when Liu Mei said this, the expression on Kou Ji's face was very natural.
He picked up the wine glass on the table, took a sip, and said to Liu Mei: "Uncle Liu can taste this wine, it tastes good."
Liu Mei frowned, and did not touch the wine on the table, "Boy, is there anything else? If not, I will return home. I have a lot of official duties to deal with every day, unlike you."
Kou Ji put down the wine glass in his hand, looked at Liu Mei, slightly narrowed his eyes, and whispered: "Uncle doesn't want Liu Heng to be an official, because he is afraid of the queen's dissatisfaction?"
Liu Meiyu stood up, stared at her, and shouted, "Nonsense!"
Seeing this, Kou Ji smiled.
It seems that he has touched Liu Mei's heart, otherwise Liu Mei would not have such a big reaction.
Kou Ji was not afraid of Liu Mei's scolding. He stared at Liu Mei, smiling but not smiling: "The kid just said casually, why did uncle react so badly?"
Liu Mei glared at Kou Ji, gritted her teeth and said, "Do you know that if you say anything casually, it may cause great trouble for others."
Kou Ji was taken aback for a moment, and said with a laugh: "The kid doesn't have that great ability..."
Liu Mei sat down, threw away the whip in her hand, and stared at Kou Ji with a cold snort, "At the beginning, because of you, hundreds of officials were beheaded. You are ashamed to say that you are not that capable.
In my eyes, you are very capable. "
Liu Mei's last sentence was full of sarcasm.
Kou Ji clicked his mouth and said with emotion: "They were beheaded by the whole family. It was purely self-inflicted. It has nothing to do with me. Uncle can't count their deaths on my head.
If they were right, how could they be executed because of a few words from me. "
Liu Mei felt that he couldn't fight with Kou Ji, so she swept the wine glass aside arbitrarily, and hummed, "I don't care if they take the blame. But I don't want to see Liu Mansion suffer because of your nonsense. "
Kou Ji shook his head and said sincerely: "You know if the kid is talking nonsense, you know it in your heart. The kid thought about it carefully, and I always feel that the things you are afraid of are a bit redundant."
"I'm not afraid..."
Liu Mei stared sternly.
Kou Ji smiled and said, "Then why don't you let Liu Heng go out of office?"
Liu Mei opened her mouth, just about to speak.
But Kou Ji said again: "The kid doesn't know what you are afraid of, but the kid knows that Liu Heng is going to be an official sooner or later. You can stop him for a while, but you can't stop him forever.
When he reached his age, he was looking for an errand to do after all.
In his capacity, it is impossible to go into business, and it is impossible to become a hawker.
The only thing he can do is to be an official. "
Liu Mei curled her lips and said stubbornly: "I can support him for the rest of my life."
Kou Ji laughed and said, "Uncle can really support him for a lifetime?"
Liu Mei was taken aback, curled her lips, did not speak again.
What he said just now was a bit angry.
Liu Heng is nearly twenty years younger than him.
As long as there is no accident, he must live longer than him.
He cannot raise Liu Heng for the rest of his life.
Seeing Liu Mei's silence, Kou Ji continued while struggling with the iron: "You know better than me about the affection of the three brothers. To say something disrespectful, when you are gone, if Liu Heng does not have a full-time official position. , How to gain a foothold in Liu Mansion
Even if you leave him a wealth of wealth, can he keep it? "
