Chapter 556: Lonely Minister
Liu Mingzhi looked at Wen Renzheng with a respectful expression: "The student is foolish, please teach the teacher." β
Wen Renzheng sighed, and got up with his hands behind his back: "Let's go around with the old man!" β
"Yes, teacher, please!"
The lights in the courtyard were bright, and Liu Mingzhi also canceled the plan to pick up the lantern, and followed Wen Renzheng out of the study.
"Aren't you curious, why didn't anyone win you over as a big celebrity in front of you, the emperor?"
Liu Mingzhi pondered for a while: "Could it be that the boy's official position is too low, and it is not worth wooing?" The kid couldn't think of anything else. β
"Alas, young, since you entered the court, you have saved food and silver taels for the treasury, and your ability to make money has won the praise of Jiang Yuanming, the head of the household department, but your reputation as a Confucian commander in the Jin Kingdom is too prosperous, and it can be compared with the general of Yingzhou Liuwei without falling behind, such a character, although he is a humble official now, he will definitely be the pillar of the court in the future, if he does not win over now, it will be impossible to win over him in the future!"
"Charcoal in the snow is far better than icing on the cake?"
"That's right, isn't it strange that you're a man of the hour and don't have anyone to win you over? Especially the royal highnesses of several princes, who are eager for the support of officials! β
Liu Mingzhi clasped the wrench in his hand and groaned, carefully recalling every conversation with Wen Renzheng.
After a long time, Liu Mingzhi looked at Wen Renzheng with curiosity: "Old man, am I a civil official or a military attache now?" β
Wen Renzheng smiled indifferently, and looked sideways at Liu Mingzhi without concealing the approval in his eyes: "You finally understand, not only you hesitate, but also the civil and military officials, whether you are a civil official or a military attachΓ©, they are also waiting, although the civil and military are not separated, but they do not deal with each other, especially the court of intrigue, you are such a young talent, which side is each other's great enemies." β
Liu Mingzhi nodded knowingly, and sighed helplessly: "Is this the way to trade-off?" β
"No, it's called the Emperor's Mind Technique, boy, look at what it is?"
Wen Renzheng stood in the corridor and suddenly stopped, pointed to the moon in the sky and asked.
Liu Mingzhi was stunned: "Moon! β
"Where's around the moon?"
"O stars!"
"What's the difference between the moon and the stars?"
Liu Mingzhi's deep muttering prince, the bright starry sky seemed to understand the meaning of Wen Renzheng, and said softly: "The moon is brighter and more lonely than the stars in the sky, although the moon is vast and bright, there is only one, and the stars are dense but obscure. β
Wen Renzheng looked at Liu Dashao sternly: "Do you understand now?" β
Liu Mingzhi rolled his eyes a few times and exclaimed: "Your Majesty wants me to be a high-ranking lonely minister?" β
"The son can be taught, twenty years old, if you don't become a lonely minister, you will be the next Wenren government, the best result is like this, who can predict the worst result!"
Liu Mingzhi suddenly felt a chill down his spine, and at this time he realized how ridiculous he thought it was that the monarch and the ministers were harmonious and got along well, although he knew that the heavenly family was ruthless, he couldn't imagine that it would be so ruthless.
A little stunned muttered: "Emperor Mind Technique, although I have watched a lot of TV series, I think I already know what Emperor Mind Technique is, but today it seems that I still underestimate the ancients!" β
Liu Mingzhi finally understood why the ancient people had so many intrigues and tricks at this moment.
There is no entertainment and leisure when you are full every day, except for making villains is planning how to calculate others.
It's no wonder if your mind isn't gloomy!
"Isn't it cold?"
"It's really cold, the kid thought it was ......... Forget it, don't mention it. β
"You don't have any plans to quit the court?"
"Old man, don't you say no, as soon as you say that I really have this kind of plan, I calculate and calculate every day, I'm too tired, it's too different from the days I imagined, this is not the life I want!"
"Do you remember what the old man said to you in Dangyang Academy?"
Liu Mingzhi thought about it for a while, and his expression was a little lost: "Being in the game, there is no way to retreat!"
"That's right, you are now a person in the game, once you climb to the top, you can't help anyone, it's too late to quit at the moment, you can only resist the pressure
