Speechless.,I just revised it.,The computer suddenly overheated and restarted.,There's only a little more than half a chapter left.,It's all dry descriptive text.,Let's take a look at it first!

……

Song Qiwen, the secretary of the ministry, is Zhou Shangjing's hardcore friend, proud protégé, and cronie among his cronies, who has been firmly controlling the officials for Zhou Shangjing over the years, and has helped Zhou Shangjing cultivate countless disciples, and is the most important figure in the "Zhou Party" since Zhou Shangjing.

Among the officials of the "Zhou Party", Song Qiwen has followed Zhou Shangjing for the longest time and has the closest relationship, so he has always known Zhou Shangjing's past style the best.

But it was precisely because Song Qiwen knew Zhou Shangjing too well that he completely misjudged Zhou Shangjing's true intentions.

Because, the Zhou Shangjing that Song Qiwen understands is the former Zhou Shangjing, the Zhou Shangjing who stands at the top of the temple's power, has a dominant family, and is still ambitious, Zhou Shangjing at that time firmly controlled the general trend of the temple, never shared power with anyone, and never gave anyone the opportunity to challenge his status.

In the past 20 years, whenever there are people in the temple who have the ability to challenge Zhou Shangjing's status, they are often suppressed and excluded by Zhou Shangjing when they just come to the fore, such as Wang Baoren, the secretary of Nanjing, who is one of the representatives; And the candidates who can enter the cabinet under Zhou Shangjing's suppression and exclusion are often those who have enough qualifications and prestige, but have a slight lack of scheming, such as Wen Guanliang, Huang Yourong, Shen Changmao, etc., no matter how much these people toss, they will never be able to challenge Zhou Shangjing's status, and Zhou Shangjing will let them enter the cabinet, but he just doesn't want the court to become his own hall, which is tantamount to forcing Emperor Deqing to be ruthless - after all, once Emperor Deqing chooses to come hard, he dispatched the power of the factory guards and the forbidden army, Even Zhou Shangjing couldn't cope with it.

It can be said that in the past, Zhou Shangjing had a very strong desire for power, which seemed to be introverted, but in fact he was domineering!

But now Zhou Shangjing is almost old, with the gradual increase in age and the gradual deterioration of his body, seeing that he may be able to return to heaven when he will go, Zhou Shangjing's thoughts in his heart have gradually changed!

In the past, Zhou Shangjing always hoped that he could always stand at the top of power, but now Zhou Shangjing hopes that his power and family can be inherited forever.

A few days ago, when Emperor Deqing was on his southern tour, he used Zhou Shangjing's eldest grandson Zhou Suhai to calculate Zhou Shangjing, and Zhou Shangjing knew that this was Emperor Deqing's trap, but he still jumped without hesitation, although the final outcome was not bad, but Zhou Shangjing lost a lot of momentum in order to keep his eldest grandson Zhou Suhai - if it was Zhou Shangjing in the past, he would never make this choice - and Zhou Shangjing made such a choice, which means that in Zhou Shangjing's heart, the meaning of the word "inheritance" is greater than " The word "power" is up!

But it's a pity that over the years, there has always been a constant struggle between Zhou Shangjing and Emperor Deqing, but Zhou Shangjing has never let Emperor Deqing take advantage, so Zhou Shangjing has become Emperor Deqing's heart disease; What's even more regrettable is that Zhou Shangjing is much older than Emperor Deqing, and his body is not as healthy as Emperor Deqing, so it is difficult to survive Emperor Deqing, and the "Zhou Party" has no one else to compete with Emperor Deqing except Zhou Shangjing, so Zhou Shangjing is very worried that after his death, Emperor Deqing will immediately eradicate his party and family.

Therefore, in recent years, Zhou Shangjing's performance has become more and more low-key, and if it is not a last resort, he will never be embarrassed by Emperor Deqing, which is precisely to ease the relationship between him and Emperor Deqing!

But Zhou Shangjing also knows very well that it is only low-key and obedient, it is difficult to resolve the resentment in the heart of Emperor Deqing, and if he wants to turn enemies into friends with Emperor Deqing, the best way is to let Emperor Deqing find an enemy who is more worthy of attention, and the threat of this enemy is stronger than Zhou Shangjing, so that Emperor Deqing will not take care of Zhou Shangjing, and even take the initiative to use Zhou Shangjing's power, at that time, Zhou Shangjing's power and family can continue to continue......

And this candidate, Zhou Shangjing chose Zhao Junchen!

Zhao Junchen is very young, not like Zhou Shangjing, who is already in the wane, Zhao Junchen is also very ambitious, not like Zhou Shangjing, who also knows how to abide by the bottom line of his courtiers, so once Zhao Junchen's power reaches a certain level, then he will inevitably become Emperor Deqing's confidant, and in the eyes of Emperor Deqing, Zhao Junchen's threat will far exceed Zhou Shangjing......

These days, Zhou Shangjing has watched Zhao Junchen's power gradually increase, and he has also shown a scheming that cannot be underestimated, if it was the usual Zhou Shangjing, he would have already begun to suppress and squeeze out Zhao Junchen, but now Zhou Shangjing's thoughts have changed, not only did he not suppress and exclude Zhao Junchen, but he connived at Zhao Junchen, and from time to time he would help and secretly instruct, except for occasionally trying to provoke the relationship between Emperor Deqing and Zhao Junchen, there was no more action, This is to let Zhao Junchen grow up as soon as possible and become Emperor Deqing's "confidant" as soon as possible!

Therefore, Song Qiwen's guess is completely wrong, and now Zhou Shangjing will not be jealous because of Zhao Junchen's growing power, but hopes that Zhao Junchen's power can be bigger and stronger!

It can be said that Zhao Junchen's power can reach the point where it is today, although there are factors of his own hard work, but the factors caused by the environment are more important, first the support of Emperor Deqing, and the secret connivance of Zhou Shangjing, plus the opponents Zhao Junchen encountered are Wen Guanliang, Huang Yourong, Shen Changmao and the like, all of whom are completely unsightly characters of Zhou Shangjing, so Zhao Junchen can come to this step by step!

Now, Zhao Junchen has annexed Huang Yourong's forces, and his power is gradually approaching the warning line in Emperor Deqing's heart.

Next, Zhou Shangjing will also cooperate with Zhao Junchen in the rectification of commercial taxes, the six departments of Nanjing, and Jingcha, etc., but on the surface, it is cooperation, in fact, it is just a further way to increase Zhao Junchen's strength, after all, in these cooperation, Zhao Junchen will get greater benefits, and after these things are over, Emperor Deqing will suddenly find that Zhao Junchen's power is far out of his control, and at that time, Emperor Deqing's attention will be focused on Zhao Junchen, not only can not take care of Zhou Shangjing, on the contrary, they will unite with Zhou Shangjing to suppress Zhao Junchen, so that Zhou Shangjing and Emperor Deqing are expected to "turn enemies into friends", and Zhou Shangjing's "inheritance plan" will become much easier!

However, seeing that the fruit he planted was about to ripen, Zhou Shangjing also needed to take precautions.

Gradually cultivating an atmosphere of hostility towards Zhao Junchen within the "Zhou Party", and trying to make Emperor Deqing notice this hostility in the future, was one of Zhou Shangjing's preparations!
