"Not bad!"

Kou Ji nodded heavily.

Kou Zhun frowned and said, "But according to the report of the spies, all the soldiers and horses led by the Liao Emperor have entered the mountain. ”

Kou Ji said seriously: "This is the cleverness of Emperor Liao, everyone watched him lead the soldiers and horses into the mountain, and they all knew that he led the soldiers and horses into the mountains to hunt."

But when he came out of the mountains again, and where he would appear, few people could guess.

After he enters the mountain, he only needs to send henchmen to block the various main roads under the mountain, and it will be difficult for our spies to pass back his movements in the mountain.

Whether he was hunting in the mountains, or marching, we don't know.

I dare to conclude that when he reappears, he will definitely come to Western Xia. ”

Kou Zhun clenched his fists, frowned, and said in a low voice: "This is just your speculation, there is no empirical evidence, it is difficult to trust the hundred officials in the court." ”

Kou Ji said in a low voice: "When the Liao Emperor's soldiers come to Western Xia, if I want to react, it will be too late." ”

Kou Zhun slapped the armrest of Kou's bus heavily, and said in a deep voice: "The old man knows, but there is no empirical evidence, and the hundred officials in the court will not approve of the imperial court sending troops." ”

Kou Ji muttered, "It's not like we're all helpless. ”

Kou Zhun looked at Kou Ji unexpectedly and asked, "What can you do to get past the hundreds of officials in the court and dispatch troops?" ”

Kou Ji said in a deep voice: "Persuade the Queen Mother, let her work with your grandfather, and give the next cheap will to the two families." There are two families, adjacent to Western Xia, and there are soldiers and horses in hand. Once the Western Xia and the Liao State go to war, if they can take the opportunity to stab the Western Xia in the back, they will definitely make the Western Xia turn the sky upside down.

If under their control, the war between Western Xia and Liao can become stalemate, and even if the imperial court intervenes in the war later, it can cut a piece of meat hard. ”

When Kou Zhun heard Kou Ji's words, he raised his eyebrows and said in a deep voice: "It is not a trivial matter to allow the two families to act cheaply. ”

Kou Ji gritted his teeth and said: "Don't give up the right of the two families to act cheaply, a large piece of fat will slip away from the mouth of the imperial court." ”

Kou Zhun slapped Kou on the bus twice, gritted his teeth and said, "Okay! The old man went into the palace and talked to the Queen Mother. ”

This kind of opportunity has been rare for many years, and it was hard to bump into it, and Kou Zhun naturally didn't want to miss it.

Immediately, Kou Zhun recruited a servant and pushed Kou Gong's car to the outside of the house.

After walking for two steps, Kou Zhun asked the servant to stop and beckoned to Kou Ji behind him, "You go with the old man." ”

Hearing this, Kou Ji was stunned for a moment, then nodded, walked over quickly, and followed behind Kou Zhun.

He has nothing to do in the house, follows Kou Zhun into the palace, and can help Kou Zhun talk when it is critical.

The grandfather and grandson hurried to the gate of Donghua.

Just as he was about to show his waist card and enter the palace, someone appeared on the edge of the Jinshui Bridge and stopped Kou Ji.

"Lord Kou stays ......"

The person who came was Chen Lin, with a dead face, blocking the edge of the Jinshui Bridge, not letting Kou Ji pass.

Seeing this, Kou Ji didn't know why.

Before he could react, Kou Zhun was annoyed, "Chen Lin, you are so bold, you dare to stand in the way of the old man." ”

Chen Lin hunched his waist and said with a smiling face: "Master Kou is joking, you are borrowing 10,000 guts from slaves, and slaves and maids dare not stand in your way." ”

Kou Zhun snorted coldly and scolded, "Then you still don't get out of the way." ”

Chen Lin stood motionless, and he said humbly: "If Master Kou wants to enter the palace, just go in, and the slaves and maids don't dare to stop him." But Lord Xiao Kou can't enter the palace. ”

Kou Zhun glared and asked, "Why?" ”

Chen Lin said softly: "This is the decree jointly issued by the Queen Mother and the Concubine Niangniang, and she specially ordered the slaves and maids to guard here, just to let the slaves and maids watch and prevent Lord Xiaokou from entering the palace." ”

When Kou Zhun heard this, he turned around and glared at Kou Ji, gritted his teeth and said, "What did you do behind the old man's back, so that the Queen Mother and the Concubine could make an order together to prevent you from entering the palace?" ”

Liu E and the Li family stopped Kou Ji from entering the palace, and Kou Ji knew what it was for.

But in the face of Kou Zhun's questioning, Kou Ji pretended to be ignorant, "Grandson didn't do anything." ”

However, the ignorance he pretended to be was seen through by Kou Zhun at a glance.

Kou Zhun glared at him viciously, and said angrily: "The old man believes that you have a ghost!" ”

"And stand here and don't move, and when the old man comes out of the palace, I'll clean you up."

Kou Zhun put down a hard erection sentence and let people push him into the palace.

Koji was left outside the palace.

Kou Ji originally wanted to follow Kou Zhun into the palace, and planned to help Kou Zhun at a critical time, but now it seems that it will not be possible.

After Kou Zhun left, Kou Ji's eyes fell on Chen Lin.

Kou Ji looked at Chen Lin with a strange expression.

Chen Lin was a little uncomfortable when she was looked at, pouting and muttering: "Don't look at our family like this, our family is not a yellow flower girl, there is nothing to see." ”

Kou Ji stared at Chen Lin and said suspiciously: "I'm just a little curious, you are a personal eunuch of an official family, and you don't want to stay by the side of the official family, but you came here to guard the door, and you are full?" ”

When Chen Lin heard this, he was annoyed, "You are only full of food." What are you doing to tease Concubine Li if you have nothing to do? If you don't want to tease Concubine Li, our family can be sent to guard the door? ”

Kou Ji said disdainfully: "What does this have to do with me teasing Concubine Li?" Obviously, you have no ability to do it yourself, and you can't please Concubine Li, so you were sent here to guard the door, so you are embarrassed to blame me?

There are thousands of eunuchs in the palace, why didn't Concubine Li send someone else to guard the door, but only you?

It's not because you don't like Concubine Li.

Look at Guo Huai, who is mixed in the palace, it is called a wind and water.

is also a eunuch, why are people better than you? ”

When Chen Lin heard this, he was furious and scolded: "Don't compare our family with Guo Huai's villain. ”

Kou Ji said nonchalantly: "If Guo Huai is a villain, then what you are living now is not as good as a villain." ”

"You!"

Chen Lin glared at Kou Ji and pointed at him.

Kou Ji rolled his eyes and said, "What are you, don't point a finger at me." You are a slave and maid, pointing your finger at a five-grade member of the imperial court, this is a great disrespect. ”

Chen Lin withdrew her fingers, stared at Kou Ji gloomily, and gritted her teeth and said, "Our family can't fight you." But we remind you, don't provoke our family again, otherwise our family will poison you with medicine. ”

Kou Ji glanced Chen Lin up and down, and said disdainfully, "I'm afraid you haven't woken up yet, right?" Poisonous and dumb a five-grade member of the imperial court, I'm afraid you're tired of it, right? ”

Chen Lin immediately glared at Kou Ji and closed his mouth.

He knew that he couldn't fight Kou Ji, so he simply didn't say anything.

The more he talked, the happier Kou Ji scolded him.

Seeing that Chen Lin stopped talking, Kou Ji leaned over to Chen Lin's side and said in a low voice: "I'm just letting the official family practice martial arts to strengthen my body, so I don't have to make such a serious fuss, I won't even let me enter the palace gate, right?" ”

Chen Lin rolled her eyes at Kou Ji and didn't say a word.

Kou Ji glanced at Chen Lin, "If you want to tell me the truth, I'll tell you a big secret." ”

Chen Lin said disdainfully: "Our family doesn't want to know your secret, and our family doesn't want to talk to you." ”

Kou Ji raised his eyebrows and said in a low voice: "The secrets related to Western Xia and the Liao Kingdom, you don't want to know?" ”

Chen Lin was stunned for a moment, gritted his teeth, glared at Kou Ji, and said angrily: "Those two have too strong a desire to control, and they both want to control the official family in their hands." The former is to borrow the official family and control power; The latter is purely spoiling the official family.

You are not wrong to instigate the official family to practice martial arts.

What is wrong is that the official family has affection for you and obeys your words.

This made the two of them see that the official family had the intention of getting out of control, so they would prevent you from entering the palace. ”

Hearing this, Kou Ji nodded slowly, and said in a deep voice: "The official family should not be controlled by anyone. ”

Chen Lin said faintly: "Our family thinks so too. Our family will never allow the official family to be regarded as a puppet of others, including you. ”

Kou Ji was stunned, "I don't have the heart to control the official family. ”

Chen Lin snorted: "That's not for sure. As far as the three of you are concerned, you have a better chance than the other two. ”

Kou Ji said blankly: "Why didn't I find out?" ”

Chen Lin glared at Kou Ji viciously.

Kou Ji smiled brightly and said in a low voice: "Just kidding, just kidding." ”

Chen Lin reminded coldly: "Don't mess around with this joke, it will kill people." ”

Kou Jiquan didn't hear Chen Lin's threatening words, he approached Chen Lin and said in a low voice, "The Liao State wants to conquer Western Xia." ”

"It can't be!"

Chen Lin didn't think about it, and blurted out.

Kou Ji said seriously: "Nothing is impossible. The Liao Emperor organized a winter hunt of 500,000 people, did you know? ”

Chen Lin nodded heavily.

Kou Ji continued: "Winter hunting in the Liao Kingdom is a tradition. Every year when winter comes, the Liao Emperor will always convene the eight Khitan tribes, as well as those of the small tribes attached to the Liao State, to hold winter hunts.

This is done in order to bring the relationship between each other closer.

It is also to show off their strength to those small tribes who are attached to the Liao State.

Let them be desperately attached to the Liao State.

But in previous years, when the number of people was at its largest, it was about 100,000.

This year, there are 500,000 people.

If there were no other schemes, it would be strange. ”

Chen Lin slowly frowned and remained silent.

Kou Ji continued: "The Liao people are all skilled in bows and horses, what can 500,000 skilled bows and horses do? Able to conquer a country. The only neighbors who can make the Liao State use such troops to conquer are my Great Song Dynasty and Western Xia.

If the Liao people want to conquer my Great Song Dynasty, they will definitely not make peace with my Great Song Dynasty at this time as a way to appease.

Therefore, the Liao people are most likely to conquer Western Xia. ”

Chen Lin slowly looked at Kou Ji and said in a deep voice: "So, the Liao people really want to conquer Western Xia?" ”

Kou Ji spoke so thoroughly, Chen Lin could naturally understand it.

Through a series of abnormal behaviors of the Liao people, it is not difficult to analyze the intentions of the Liao people.

Koji nodded.

Chen Lin frowned and said, "Since you have deduced that the Liao people are going to conquer Western Xia, then you should tell the princes of the court your inference, and let them discuss a countermeasure together." ”

Kou Ji said: "My grandfather has already entered the palace to discuss this matter with the Queen Mother. ”

Chen Lin nodded slowly and groaned in place.

After a long time, he looked at Kou Ji and said in a low voice, "You changed the law to tell our family about this matter, do you have any plans?" ”

This matter is very important, Chen Lin will never believe that Kou Ji will kindly share it with him.

Kou Ji chuckled under his breath, "I knew I couldn't hide it from you." Although I deduced the truth that the Liao people wanted to conquer Western Xia, I lack empirical evidence to win the trust of the princes in the court, so I want you to help collect some evidence. ”

Chen Lin raised his eyebrows and stared at Kou Ji vigilantly, "You want to use someone from the East Gate Medicine Depot?" ”

Kou Ji said in a deep voice: "There is also an instrument supervisor!" ”

When Chen Lin heard this, she almost jumped up in fright.

He stared at Kou Ji in horror and said, "How do you know that our family is in charge of the instrument prison?" ”

Chen Lin is in charge of the instrument superintendent, which is a secret within a secret.

Except for the device supervisor, Chen Lin, and Zhao Heng, who had died, no one else knew.

Even if it was Liu E, she didn't know about it.

Although Liu E can transfer the people of the instrument supervisor, she also nominally controls the instrument supervisor.

But it was Chen Lin who really mastered the instrument supervision.

Although Zhao Heng did not leave anything like the edict of the Empress to Kou Zhun, it did not mean that he did not guard against Liu E.

He left behind the manpower to guard against Liu E, all in the hands of Chen Lin.

Seeing Chen Lin's nervous trembling, Kou Ji tugged on his sleeve and said in a low voice: "Don't worry, only I know about this matter, and no one else knows." ”

Chen Lin gritted her teeth and asked Kou Ji, "How do you know?" ”

Kou Ji said in a low voice: "Because the dumb tiger's Yulu has not stopped. ”

When Chen Lin heard this, he said in a deep voice: "I knew that it was the dumb tiger that showed flaws, so our family should have cut off the dumb tiger's fortune." ”

Kou Ji shook his head and said, "Don't think about it. Once you cut off the dumb tiger's fortune, my grandfather will definitely ask you to the end, and then he will dig you out. ”

Chen Lin gritted his teeth and said, "You can see this, how can your grandfather not see this?" ”

Kou Ji explained: "My grandfather's eyes were on the Queen Mother, and he rarely paid attention to these details. Even if he senses that the dumb tiger's fortune is not broken, he will not suspect you.

He would only think that Liu E wanted to maintain the promise of the first emperor, so he didn't break the dumb tiger's fortune. ”

Chen Lin stared at Kou Ji and said, "Where would your grandfather think, why didn't you think about it?" ”

Kou Ji laughed in a low voice: "Because since I knew that you were in control of the East Gate Medicine Depot, I guessed that you have more than just the East Gate Medicine Depot. The first emperor gave you the Dongmen medicine depot to take charge of, and his intention must be to deal with Liu E. The Dongmen Medicine Depot is powerful, but it's not enough for you to fight the Queen Mother.

After I found out that the dumb tiger's power was not broken, I guessed that the other force in your hands was the instrument supervisor.

If Liu E is in control of the instrument prison, even if she doesn't speak, the manager of the instrument prison will appropriately cut the dumb tiger's salary and pat her ass. ”

Chen Lin stared at Kou Ji with gloomy eyes, and said in a deep voice: "It turned out that our family revealed its flaws early, and only then did you see our family's hole cards." ”

Kou Ji said: "I can see through this matter, also because you revealed the news to me in advance, but others can't see through it." Our goal is the same, so it's impossible for me to reveal your hole cards to anyone else. ”

Chen Lin gritted her teeth and reminded: "It's best if you keep your mouth shut." If you reveal this secret, we will definitely kill you. It's true that you are a fifth-grade official, but the fifth-grade official killed by our family can't be counted on two hands.

The reason why our family lets you everywhere is because you are the only one of the people we know who is wholeheartedly good to the official family. ”

"Understood!"

Kou Ji said, and then said, "When will your people be able to send out?" ”

Chen Lin said in a deep voice: "It's a matter of state affairs, and it's such a big state affair, so naturally the sooner the better." When our family entered the palace for a while, we sent people out. ”
