Zhao Yuanyan and Li Yan listened to Wang Qinruo's words and looked stunned.

After the shock, Zhao Yuanyan's face was a little ugly.

For him, Liu E and Kou Zhun are all stumbling blocks that stand in the way of his great cause, and both of them need to be eradicated.

Liu E had a bad move before, lost to Kou Zhun for a while, and was forced to imprison herself in the dormitory and made a nominal mascot.

Zhao Yuanyan originally thought that the great enemy had been eliminated.

Now listening to Wang Qinruo's meaning, Liu E not only did not become depressed because of the previous failure, but had a sense of recovery.

Li Jian didn't think as much as Zhao Yuanyan, and after hearing Wang Qinruo's words, Li Jian was slightly stunned and said: "The Queen Mother is now imprisoned in the palace, and she is still difficult to protect, how can she help us deal with Kou Zhun ancestors and grandchildren?" ”

Wang Qinruo observed the faces of Zhao Yuanyan and Li Xian, and said faintly: "Our queen mother is not an idle person, as long as you don't die, how can you be idle?" ”

When Zhao Yuanyan heard this, he frowned and made a posture of listening attentively.

Li Yan came to Wang Qinruo's side in astonishment and asked, "How do you say it?" ”

Wang Qinruo stroked his beard and sighed: "As far as the old man knows, the Queen Mother has secretly sent someone to contact Lu Yijian, Zhang Lun, and Xia Zhu, intending to help the three of them return to the court, and then use the power of these three people to reappear in the court." ”

When Zhao Yuanyan heard this, he subconsciously clenched his fists, and his heart was full of atmosphere.

Lu Yijian, Zhang Lun, and Xia Zhu are all talented, if he can get the help of Lu Yijian, the throne can be expected.

He successively sent people to Lu Yijian, Zhang Lun, and Xia Zhu to throw olive branches.

Lü Yijian decisively rejected his solicitation, and also beheaded the secret envoy he sent, and gave the secret envoy the name of a Liao lobbyist.

He wanted to help the secret envoy avenge his grievances, and he wanted to use the secret envoy to harm Lu Yijian and force Lu Yijian to comply, but it was difficult.

Zhang Lun went even further, directly threw the people he sent into the mountains, fed the tiger wolf, and wrote a letter to him, so that he could dispel the idea of seizing the throne as soon as possible, otherwise he would inevitably write to impeach him for being disobedient.

Among the three, only Xia Zhu agreed to his solicitation, but Xia Zhu also put forward conditions.

Xia Zhu asked him for the head of one of Kou Zhun's ancestors and grandchildren, and then he promised to sincerely join him and help him do things.

He couldn't get the head of Kou Zhun's ancestors, so naturally he couldn't ask Xia Zhu to help him do things.

The reason why he and Li Jian and Wang Qinruo calculated Kou Li was also to borrow Kou Li and calculate Kou Zhun ancestors and grandchildren, in order to get the head of one of Kou Zhun ancestors and grandchildren while fighting for power, so as to bring Xia Zhu, a talented person, into his command.

Now that he can't recruit three people, if the Queen Mother Liu E succeeds, where will he put his face?

Zhao Yuanyan bit down and said in a deep voice: "The three of them agreed?" ”

When Wang Qinruo heard this, he instantly understood Zhao Yuanyan's thoughts, and after he pondered slightly, he shook his head with a wry smile, "It doesn't seem to be ...... The old man could only find out that the Queen Mother secretly sent someone to recruit these three people, but as for whether it succeeded or not, the old man did not find out. ”

Zhao Yuanyan frowned and asked, "Really?" ”

Wang Qinruo nodded decisively and said, "It's really ......."

Zhao Yuanyan snorted coldly, and said disdainfully: "This king can't recruit people, how can Liu E recruit them?" ”

Wang Qinruo pursed his lips, but did not speak.

He didn't tell the truth to Zhao Yuanyan.

In fact, according to the latest news he got, Zhang Lun and Xia Zhu have already agreed to the solicitation of the Queen Mother Liu E.

Now the Queen Mother Liu E is secretly planning for Zhang Lun and Xia Zhu to return to Beijing.

The reason why he didn't tell the truth to Zhao Yuanyan was because he was afraid that Zhao Yuanyan would be jealous, and while dealing with Kou Zhun's ancestors and grandchildren, he also made a move on Liu E.

Now that he is helping Zhao Yuanyan, it is already difficult to deal with Kou Zhun's ancestors and grandchildren, and if he adds a Liu E, the situation will not be good.

As for why Zhang Lun and Xia Zhu were willing to take refuge in Liu E, but not Zhao Yuanyan, he also knew.

Zhang Lun and Xia Zhu took refuge in Liu E and dealt with Kou Zhun's ancestors, so there was a party struggle and a power struggle.

No matter how they struggle, no matter whether they succeed or fail, they are all Song Chen.

But if he took refuge in Zhao Yuanyan and helped Zhao Yuanyan usurp the throne together, it would be a rebellion, and if it was defeated, it would be a traitor.

There is a fundamental difference between the two.

Li Yan sighed secretly, it was a pity that he couldn't recruit Zhang Lun and the others, and then stared at Wang Qinruo and asked, "The Queen Mother is imprisoned in the palace, and her hand can still be stretched so long?" ”

Wang Qinruo stroked his beard and said faintly: "As long as the Queen Mother sits on the back seat one day, there will be someone for him to drive one day." For example, Yan Shu, who was punished by the official family for pouring night incense......"

"Yan Shu?"

"Not bad...... This great talent, for some reason, was not treated by the official family, and he was unwilling to bear the name of the left concubine, so he poured night incense in the palace, so he took refuge in the queen mother behind his back. ”

“……”

Zhao Yuanyan frowned and said, "Yan Shu, don't care about him for the time being." Only this season is to recruit people as soon as possible and win over the officers and men in the army as soon as possible. As for joining forces with Liu E, he is not allowed to mention it again.

This king will not join forces with Liu E, and he has to prevent her from sitting big again. ”

When Wang Qinruo and Li Zheng heard this, they all replied with their hands.

"......"

In order to usurp the throne and move to Kou Zhun's ancestors, Zhao Yuanyan can be said to have tried his best.

However.

Kou Ji didn't know about it, and he didn't even know anything about Liu E's small actions behind his back.

In the second half of the first month, he has been busy entertaining guests.

The envoys of various countries and subordinates tried their best to find relationships and ways to introduce them to Kou Ji.

What he did was the steel in Kou Ji's hands.

Before they met Kou Ji, they sent someone to give them a lot of generous gifts, and then they came to visit.

Kou Ji did not refuse to come, and accepted all the orders.

But when they came to visit, they proposed to buy steel at a high price, as well as the method of buying steel forging at a high price, but Kou Ji did not agree to any of them.

The envoys of various countries and subordinates saw that Kou Ji had received a generous gift, but they did not agree to their request, and they slandered Kou Ji behind their backs.

It didn't take long for Kou Ji to become a black pixiu who only eats and does not pull in the mouths of envoys from various countries.

The reason why he is called Hei Pixiu is because he has a black heart.

But if the gift is less than 10,000 yuan, he will not accept it at all.

He doesn't accept gifts, so others naturally can't see him.

Therefore, in order to see him, the envoys of various countries gave generous gifts, all worth 10,000 yuan.

Kou Ji made a fortune with this.

However, not all of this money went to the treasury of the Korfu.

Instead, he was divided into half by a robber who broke into the Kou Mansion.

Kou Ji held the panda in his hand and stared around, and watched with some pain as the robber stuffed a box containing thousand-year-old ginseng into the cloth bag in his hand, and said unhappily: "Millennial ginseng...... Something that saves lives...... You can't leave me behind...... If I have something to do, I can use it to save my life. ”

Chen Lin casually tightened the bag containing the ginseng box in his hand, handed it to the eunuch behind him, and after letting the eunuch record it, he picked up a snow-white ivory that was not mixed with other variegated colors, and said indifferently while stuffing it into the bag: "You are strong, what's the use of asking for ginseng?" Eating too much not only does not play a role in nourishing the body, but is also harmful. ”

Chen Lin casually stuffed the ivory into a bag, glanced at the panda in Kou Ji's arms, and said, "Old man, do you remember that the envoy of Goryeo gave you two thousand-year-old ginsengs, and one of them was ruined by the thing in your arms.

If it were someone else, it would definitely kill it and eat meat, but you are a treasure, not only did you not feel sorry for the ginseng, but also asked the doctor to find a way to help a beast see a doctor.

If the good things are left in your hands, they will only be wasted......"

If it weren't for Kou Ji's rarity with the panda in his arms, Chen Lin would have sliced it and eaten it a long time ago.

A treasure like thousand-year-old ginseng, which is something that an animal is entitled to enjoy.

Seeing that Chen Lin's eyes were a little dangerous, Kou Ji casually held the panda in his arms and stared at Chen Lin vigilantly, "These things were given to me by others?" ”

Chen Lin just picked up a fist-sized gem, and when he heard Kou Ji's words, he rolled his eyes, looked at Kou Ji, and asked, "Even if it was given to you by someone else, are you eligible to enjoy it all?" ”

Kou Ji glared at Chen Lin fiercely, but did not refute.

In Kou Ji's stunned eyes, Chen Lin casually stuffed the gem into his arms, and said nonchalantly: "These things were given to you by the envoys of Fanbang, if you enjoy them alone, then those red-eyed courtiers in the court who are already jealous will definitely impeach you."

Say that you have different intentions, that you have colluded with other countries.

If something goes wrong with state affairs, the courtiers may put on your head.

The old man took the money, and it was for the official's family.

With the official family to help you endorse it, you can rest assured that you can boldly take this money, and you don't have to worry about others using this to impeach you and put on your head. ”

Kou Ji rolled his eyes and said angrily: "Without the endorsement of the official, I'm not afraid." ”

With Kou Ji's current status and ability, do you still need to be afraid of being impeached?

Chen Lin put down the agate stone he had just picked up in his hand, looked sideways at Kou Ji, and asked seriously: "You can't spend all the money in your house, why do you need so much money?" ”

Kou Ji raised his eyebrows and said indifferently: "Who would dislike having a lot of money?" ”

Chen Lin stuffed the agate stone in his hand into his cuffs, and said in a deep voice: "Too much money is not a good thing......

Kou Ji stared at Chen Lin and frowned, "You're here to beat me?" ”

Chen Lin shook his head, "Knocking you?" The old man is no longer qualified. The old man just reminded you that money is enough to spend, and too much will only cause trouble. ”

Kou Ji was still frowning.

Chen Lin stuffed something into his sleeve and said lightly: "Your means of collecting money are unparalleled in the world." You have been in Bianjing for less than three years, and the wealth you have collected has exceeded 10 million.

After that, your money will become more and more abundant.

It's only a matter of time before you're rich. ”

Kou Ji stared at Chen Lin and said in a deep voice, "Then what? ”

Chen Lin smiled indifferently: "Then...... And then death is not far away. ”

Kou Ji glared at Chen Lin.

Chen Lin continued to take care of himself: "The tree is a big move...... At that time, even if it is an official family, it may not be able to protect you. ”

Kou Ji's eyes were slightly cold, "Will the government and the opposition treat me as a piece of fat pork?" If they can't bite me alone, they will all unite and overthrow me and Koufu. ”

Chen Lin nodded approvingly, "You are a smart person, it should not be difficult for you to see this." ”

Kou Ji sneered: "Then let's see if they can have a good pair of teeth by then." ”

Chen Lin looked at Kou Ji in a little surprise and said, "Water can carry a boat and can also capsize a boat, not to mention, you are just a slightly larger passenger on the boat." ”

Kou Ji said disdainfully: "What kind of water are they......"

Chen Lin was slightly stunned for a moment, and nodded, "Since you insist on going your own way, then the old man will no longer persuade you." ”

Kou Ji glared at Chen Lin, and when he saw Chen Lin continuing to stuff things into his sleeve, he snorted coldly: "You are saying so many alarmist things to me, just to scare me, and then take advantage of me."

Half of the profit to the official family, you have already taken it, you still take it? ”

Chen Lin did not deny Kou Ji's words, but he did not stop, but continued to stuff things into his sleeves.

Stuffed while muttering.

"We are also old friends, and now the old man is poor and can't afford to eat meat. Can't you ask the old man to eat meat a few times? ”

Kou Ji rolled his eyes.

Chen Lin said this, he didn't believe a word.

Although Chen Lin is only a eunuch, he is also a eunuch with rank, and he also serves as the governor of the inner and inner provinces, the official of the inner east gate, the official of the Imperial Medicine Academy, the official of the Houyuan, and the official affairs of the Guoxin Office.

Although the official rank of all positions is not high, each position has a salary.

All of them add up, and they are a little higher than Kou Ji.

Even if Chen Lin kills pigs and sheep every day to eat meat, he can't spend it all.

How can the poor not be able to afford to eat meat?

Seeing that Chen Lin was holding a piece of transparent jade and was about to stuff it into his arms, Kou Ji darkened his face and said, "Enough!" Turn me over again! ”

Chen Lin was slightly stunned for a moment, picked up the jade bi and took a closer look, then said with a smack: "The jade bi of the Wei and Jin dynasties seems to be carved by celebrities, and it is priceless, no wonder you will stop the old man."

replaced by an old man, and he didn't want to give this thing to others.

That's it, the old man has already taken a lot, so he won't take it.

After a while, when the old man has no meat to eat, he will come back to you. ”

Kou Ji snorted coldly.

Chen Lin held his heavy sleeves in both hands, took the small yellow door in the palace, carried a few large boxes, and left the Kou Mansion in a leisurely manner.

Kou Ji looked at Chen Lin's departing back, frowning, and secretly pondering in his heart.

With his understanding of Chen Lin, Chen Lin is definitely not a greedy person.

If Chen Lin is greedy for money, just selling Zhao Zhen's daily words and deeds, daily life and other news is enough to collect a huge amount of money, so why give up his face and take money from him.

In order to take money from him, it is another scare, and it is also a reason to know it with emotion......

If Kou Ji guessed correctly, Chen Lin probably encountered something difficult and was short of money, so he had to pit money from him.
