How to be wise
The night is like a curtain, and the bright moon hangs high.
On a shady street in Yingtianfu, Mo Li, who was dressed in black, supported the faltering Fan Qi towards Fan's mansion.
It wasn't until the figures of the two were completely submerged in the night that Fan Qi, who was still paralyzed and leaning on Mo Li's body at the last moment, immediately woke up.
He stopped moving forward, stopped in the dark night, and asked aloud, "You're not Li Mo, are you?"
Fan Qi's words made Mo Li's eyes froze, and he was already moved with murderous intent. But he couldn't figure it out, this Fan Qi was a civil official, even if he knew that Mo Li was not Li Mo, he shouldn't dare to ask in person. Who would have thought that this Fan Qi would be so bold?
Fan Qi's approach made Mo Li not understand, so he didn't rush to act, but adjusted his mentality and asked, "Oh? Why did Master Fan say this?"
"My nephew told me about where you came from. According to him, you are a member of the Li family in Shengjing, and he also said that His Majesty received thirty acres of fertile land from your family. Unfortunately, it is the person of the Li family in Shengjing. I asked my wife a few days ago, and she said that their Li family did not take away the land by His Majesty, and as for Li Mo, there is indeed someone. However, Li Mo is an old man in his seventies, not as young as you. Well, tell me, who is your Excellency, and what is your intention to deceive my nephew in this way?
After listening to Fan Qi's explanation, Mo Li miscalculated the secret way, but also sighed in his heart, this heavenly way is really mysterious.
After thinking about it for a while, Mo Li also knew that there was no way to quibble, so he immediately nodded and asked the doubts in his heart: "The deity is indeed not Li Mo, but you are just a civil official, in such a remote corner where the moon is dark and the wind is high, you are not afraid that the deity will kill you?"
Fan Qi smiled and said confidently, "You won't." If you were going to do it, you would have done it a long time ago. If this officer dies today, you will be the biggest suspect. Although Xiong Hao is friendly with you, he can't protect you with his ability. What's more, you won't be able to stay in the Agricultural Technology Division anyway. If this official is not mistaken, what you are trying to do is not my nephew, but Lord Yang and Lord Wu, right?
Secretly said "cunning", Mo Li sighed, turned around, restored his appearance to his original appearance, and asked Fan Qi: "In this way, do you still recognize the deity?"
The moment he saw Mo Li's real body, Fan Qi seemed to have been shocked, and he stood for a long time before he came back to his senses, and immediately knelt on the ground and said, "Xiaguan Fan Qi, I have seen the National Teacher." I didn't know the identity of the National Teacher before, and I asked the National Teacher Haihan to offend. ”
Mo Li picked up Fan Qi and said, "The deity doesn't blame you, why don't you tell me how you want to cooperate with the deity?"
Fan Qi shook his head like a rattle and said: "The lower officials don't dare, but the national teacher has orders, the lower officials don't dare to disobey, how dare they talk about any cooperation with the national teacher?"
Mo Li also knew that because of his identity, it was impossible for Fan Qi to talk about cooperation with him in an equal position. So he didn't force it, but said, "If the deity is not a national teacher, but someone else, can you tell me what you originally planned?"
Fan Qi hurriedly said, "Master Returning to China." Xia Guan has been in this position for some years, and it has been difficult to advance. I found out that you seemed to be plotting to get rid of Wu Qing and Yang Kaitai, so I thought this was a good opportunity. If you really get rid of Yang Kaitai or Wu Qing, then it will not be difficult for the lower officials to take over their positions after a little operation. ”
Seeing that Fan Qi couldn't get to the point, Mo Li coughed and interrupted him: "You just talk about the point, there is no need to say more about these reasons." ”
Hearing Mo Li's question, Fan Qi didn't dare not answer, and immediately returned: "Xia Guan is actually not preparing to do anything, he just wants to determine whether they will get rid of Yang Kaitai or Wu Qing." If they can get rid of one of the two, the lower officials will have a good job. If they don't want to get rid of the two, then the lower officials will be more peaceful. ”
After listening to Fan Qi's answer, Mo Li stared at Fan Qi for a while, and then said sharply: "You lie! If this is the case, why do you come to the deity for a showdown? Wouldn't it be better to wait directly for the result of the deity? Why risk exposing yourself to do such a meaningless thing?"
Mo Li's drink directly frightened Fan Qi into staggering and sitting on the ground. Fan Qi hurriedly adjusted his posture, changed from a sitting position to a kneeling position, and after kowtowing more than ten times in a row, he said, "The lower officials don't dare." Back to the adult's words, in fact, Xia Guan wanted to provoke this 'Li Mo' to assassinate Yang Kaitai or Wu Qing directly. After all, there is a relationship between Jin'er and me, and there are still many opportunities for 'Li Mo' to make a move. If the subordinate forms a strategic alliance with him, his actions can be grasped in advance. After he got rid of one of the two, the official stepped forward and brought him to justice. In this way, the lower officials will have merit to ascend to the position, and the two adults can just make a gap for the official. It's just that I never thought that this 'Li Mo' turned out to be you, the National Teacher. ”
Listening to Fan Qi's plan, Mo Li's heart was suddenly shocked, and he secretly said, "This person is so vicious." However, Mo Li didn't hate him, on the contrary, he thought he was very good. So, Mo left his mouth and said: "Mr.'s talent is not weaker than Wen He, and he got up and spoke." ”
Although he heard that Mo Li was praising him, he still didn't remember who this Wenhe was for a while, so he patted the dust on his knees and forehead, and asked, "Who is this Wenhe? ”
Seeing that Fan Qi didn't know the name of Wenhe, Mo Li was a little surprised, and asked, "Mr. doesn't know the poisoner Jia Xu?"
Listening to Mo Li say Jia Xu's name, he suddenly remembered who this Jia Wenhe was. Immediately, there was a wry smile, and he said to Mo Li: "Isn't my lord making fun of Xia Guan? Everyone in the world knows this Taigong Jiang Shang and Zhuge Wolong, but this poison Jia Xu is rarely known." ”
Mo Li shook his head and said: "Everyone in the world says that Kong Ming is smart, but in the eyes of the deity, Zhuge 's wooden ox and flowing horse and Zhuge crossbow are all made by Huang Yueying, who is good at cunning, not Zhuge inventions. The failure of the five Northern Expeditions also shows that Zhuge does not have the ability to command the army. What is this war fought? It is the economy. Shu is already weak, resisting strong Wei is a problem, he is not good to stop the banner, seeking development, but still has the mind of the Northern Expedition, I have to say that it is a mediocre decision, which shows that Zhuge is not a person of good governance. If you have to say where he is powerful, it is nothing more than predicting the situation of three points in the world and a little cleverness of the grass boat to borrow arrows. If it was Kong Ming who died in Luofengpo instead of Pang Tong, Shu would not have died so quickly, and there would not have been a situation of 'four horse food troughs'. As for this Jiang Taigong, he is smart enough, but if it weren't for him, how could Yin Shang have died out so quickly? History is written by the victors. How the tyranny of Yin Shang was, and how extravagant the wine pond meat forest of the king was, no one had ever seen it with their own eyes. What is the difference between Jiang Taigong's move of prying Ji Chang to destroy the Jiuchi Meat Forest and the destruction of Nuwa Temple by King Xu?"
Fan Qi was stunned by Mo Li's words, Mo Li's words simply refreshed his three views, and immediately said respectfully: "The national teacher is a great talent, and the realm of the lower officials is really unattainable." I wonder who you think can be called wisdom throughout the ages?"
Mo Li didn't rush to answer, but smiled and said, "It's almost time to reach Fan's mansion, won't Lord Fan invite me to come in and sit down and have a cup of tea?"
Fan Qi suddenly realized that before he knew it, the outline of Fan's Mansion had appeared in the eyes of the two. Fan Qi immediately nodded and invited: "Please also invite the National Teacher to go to the house with you." ”
Grabbing Fan Qi's waist, Mo Li came to the door of Fan's mansion in a flash, and said, "Master Fan, let's go in." ”
After ordering someone to make a few side dishes and boiling a pot of wine, Fan Jin chatted with Mo Li while eating in the guest room. Speaking of which, my country's wine table culture is probably passed down from them. No matter what happens, the first thing is not to deal with things, but to set the table first.
After the two of them took their seats, Mo Li continued the topic just now, "Didn't you just ask the deity who can be called wise? The first person of Zhizhi must be the Colonel Chu, but you must not have heard of him, so you won't mention him. can represent wisdom, Mr. Guiguzi is naturally the first to bear the brunt, followed by Mr. Liu Bowen, the veteran of the Ming Dynasty, and Mr. Sima Hui of Shuijing during the Three Kingdoms period, and then Guo Fengxiao, who has no last resort, Xun Wenruo, who drives the tiger and devours the wolf, Li Wenyou, who burns the city and destroys the traces, Jia Wenhe, the poisoner, Gu Sima Yi, and Pang Shiyuan. ”
Fan Qi hurriedly asked: "Everyone in the world says that Zhuge is the ultimate in wisdom, but adults have a lot of criticism about this Zhuge , don't you have any prejudices about it?"
Mo Li shook his head and smiled: "The deity doesn't need to have a grudge against a mortal, it's just a matter of facts. Maybe this Zhuge is really extremely wise and close to the demon, but throughout his life, there is really nothing outstanding about it. is in the romance, his trick of seeking the wind is just a matter of waving his hand to the deity. ”
Fan Qi naturally complimented him for a while. When the two chatted in Fan's Mansion until the sky was bright, they left Fan's Mansion and returned to their residence.
