Kou Ji rolled his eyes, he knew that he couldn't pretend to be stupid, so he simply confessed: "What if you know?" It's your sister who has a crush on Di Qing, and it's not Di Qing who has a crush on your sister. The fault is not Di Qing, why let Di Qing bear the consequences? ”

Cao Xu said viciously: "Whether it's his fault or not, he has to bear the consequences." ”

Kou Ji squinted at him and said with a smile: "A wealthy family is really a wealthy family, and they are so domineering when they speak. ”

"Humph!"

Cao Xu heard the ridicule in Kou Ji's words and snorted coldly.

Kou Ji said again: "Is this your own idea, or Uncle Cao's idea." ”

Cao Xu gritted his teeth and said, "Naturally, it's my father's meaning." ”

Kou Ji shook his head and said jokingly: "I can't tell lies, if it's really Cao Bobo's idea, he will still teach Di Qing martial arts?" It is obvious that you look down on Di Qing and don't want to see the girl of the Cao family marry Di Qing, a poor boy, but you don't dare to tell Uncle Cao, so you want to get Di Qing away through me. ”

Cao Xu's mind was debunked by Kou Ji, and his face was slightly blushing, but he still gritted his teeth and said, "What's the matter, I just look down on him." He's a country boy, why should he marry my sister? ”

Kou Ji groaned: "There is a sentence that I don't know whether to say or not. ”

"Say!"

Cao Xu opened his mouth coldly.

Kou Ji sighed: "Thirty years in Hedong, thirty years in Hexi, don't bully young people into poverty." It's true that he's a poor boy now, but what about later? ”

Cao Xu opened his mouth to refute, but he heard Kou Ji say again: "He is now following Uncle Cao to learn art, and he will follow Zhu Neng to lead the troops to fight in the future, and I will help him in the court." How could he be poor in the future?

With the strength of the three of us, even if he can't become a generation of famous generals, he can still be in a high position. ”

Cao Xu gritted his teeth and said: "After the official family ascended the throne, there was no new general in the court. ”

Cao Xu's implication is that no matter how great Di Qing's achievements are in the future, he can't be compared with Cao Fu.

Kou Ji stared at Cao Xu and said seriously: "Is the door really that important?" ”

Cao Xu nodded without hesitation.

Kou Ji grinned and said, "Then how about my Kou Mansion Sect?" Comparable to your Cao family? How about I let my father recognize Di Qing as his son? ”

Cao Xu was stunned.

I heard Kou Ji say again: "But there is a question, have you never thought about it?" ”

Cao Xu was stunned and asked, "What's the problem?" ”

Kou Ji smiled: "If the girl of your Cao family can take a fancy to Di Qing, Di Qing will definitely be able to take a fancy to the girl of your Cao family?" ”

Cao Xu looked stunned and froze in place.

Kou Ji no longer paid attention to him, and walked towards Di Qing and Cao Wei.

The two of them turned their backs to Kou Ji, and they didn't see Kou Ji coming over, but the girl found Kou Ji first.

When she saw Kou Ji's gaze hovering between her and Di Qing, her pretty face turned red, and she covered her face and escaped from the martial arts arena.

Di Qing and Cao Wei saw the girl's reaction, and immediately judged that there was someone behind them.

When they turned around, they saw Kou Ji standing behind them with a grin.

"Boy Kou Ji, I've seen Uncle Cao."

Kou Ji bowed to Cao Wei.

Di Qing hugged his fist at Kou Ji and said, "Villain Di Qing, I have seen the young master." ”

Cao Wei didn't speak, but frowned and looked at Di Qing and Kou Ji.

Kou Ji patted Di Qing's shoulder and smiled, "You are not my servant, and I am not your young master. If you don't dislike it, just call me brother. ”

Di Qing was stunned when he heard this, but he was not ambiguous, and immediately hugged his fists and said, "Brother......"

Kou Ji nodded in satisfaction.

Cao Wei's frowning brows also relaxed.

When Di Qing first studied art with Cao Wei, Cao Wei didn't care about the relationship between Di Qing and Kou Ji.

But as the two of them got along for a long time, Cao Wei also had a sense of love for this apprentice.

He didn't want to see his favorite apprentice become someone else's servant.

Cao Weile smiled and said, "Why did you kid think of coming to my house?" Come to see Di Qing? Afraid that I will go back on my word and refuse to teach Di Qingzhen skills? ”

Kou Ji smiled confidently: "I don't believe that Uncle Cao will hide his secrets when he sees such a good talent." ”

Cao Wei suddenly straightened his face and said, "What kind of talent, it's still far away." ”

Kou Ji was stunned for a moment, and instantly understood.

Cao Wei said this to Di Qing, in order to prevent Di Qing from being proud.

Cao Wei looked at Di Qing and said solemnly, "What are you doing here?" You haven't written the military treatise that you asked you to write silently today. Why don't you write it yet? ”

Di Qing had the heart to talk to Kou Ji, but he didn't dare to disobey Cao Wei's words, so he could only hug Kou Ji and leave the martial arts arena.

As soon as Di Qing left, Cao Wei grinned, and said to Kou Ji with a wink: "It's really a good seedling...... When you first asked me to take him as an apprentice, I was reluctant in every way, but now it seems that I have to thank you. ”

It can be seen that Cao Wei is very satisfied with Di Qing's apprentice.

Kou Ji smiled: "Uncle Cao is satisfied." ”

Cao Wei advised: "Don't praise Di Qing in front of him in the future, it's easy for him to be proud." ”

Kou Ji nodded and said, "The kid knows." ”

Cao Wei nodded and led Kou Ji to the main hall.

After arriving at the main hall and sitting down, Cao Wei asked people to serve tea before he spoke: "You came to the house today, did you come to find me?" ”

Kou Ji nodded and said, "I want to invite Uncle Cao out for activities." ”

"Activity?"

Cao Wei looked at Kou Ji suspiciously, "What kind of activity method?" ”

After a pause, Cao Wei looked at Kou Ji vigilantly, and said solemnly: "I have also heard a little about the rumors in Bianjing City recently. There are some things that my Cao family will not be involved in. ”

The implication is that if Kou Ji wants to do something like leading the troops to Qingjun's side, don't look for the Cao family.

Kou Ji laughed silently: "Uncle Cao thinks badly. The activity that the kid said is completely different from what you think. ”

Hearing that Kou Ji was not looking for the Cao family to do something like Qingjun's side, Cao Wei breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "How do you want me to move?" ”

Kou Ji smiled: "I don't know if Uncle Cao can serve as the secretary of the military department?" ”

Cao Wei looked at Kou Ji with a strange expression.

Previously, after he was deposed from the post of privy envoy, he was relocated to the position of secretary of the military department.

Not long after he hung up in the position of the secretary of the military department, he took the initiative to resign.

It's not that he doesn't want to hang up in the position of the secretary of the military department and receive an extra salary, but he stays in the position of the secretary of the military department and is always impeached.

He wears many hats, and the Cao family is a wealthy family, so he simply resigned from the position of secretary of the military department, and was idle at home, happy and quiet.

Now Kou Ji wants to invite him to serve as the secretary of the military department, and he will be scolded at the Qingshui Yamen, he doesn't understand what Kou Ji has in mind.

Seeing Cao Wei's strange expression, Kou Ji roughly guessed Cao Wei's thoughts, and immediately said, "I know that Uncle Cao has just resigned from the position of secretary of the Ministry of War. But this time, the boy asked you to be the secretary of the military department, which has a deep meaning. ”

Cao Wei said nonchalantly: "What can you mean, it's not like being scolded if you go, it's better not to go." ”

Kou Ji groaned: "What is the deep meaning, the kid can't tell you yet." But the kid can assure you that as long as you go to the military department and serve as the secretary of the military department, you will definitely gain something. ”

Cao Wei glanced at Kou Ji unexpectedly, and pondered: "What can you gain from a Qingshui Yamen in the military department......

Kou Ji smiled but didn't say anything.

Cao Wei seems to be thinking, but he is actually talking about it.

But he couldn't tell Cao Wei the truth.

The Cao family belongs to Wuxun, and their relationship between the DPRK and China is intertwined.

If he knew about Kou Ji's full plan, there was no guarantee that he wouldn't tell the other martial artists.

When the time comes, the martial artists will act together and try their best to help their own people occupy the six departments, then his plan will be completely ruined.

Although Cao Wei is now close to Kou Ji, Cao Wei is not his own person after all.

He has his own circle, and so does Koji.

The circle of two people is still the kind of circle that cannot blend with each other, but they have common interests.

Many times, the circle in which the two of them are in a hostile relationship.

Occasionally, they will cooperate, but in the end, they will still go to the opposite side.

Kou Zhun dared to push Cao Wei out to be the secretary of the military department, because Kou Zhun was absolutely sure that he could control him.

But Koji didn't, at least not right now.

So when he faces Cao Wei, he will always be on guard.

Cao Wei saw Kou Ji smiling and silent, he knew that Kou Ji saw through his thoughts, and he didn't show shame.

"If you don't tell me in detail, how can I promise you to serve as the secretary of the military department?"

Kou Ji said with a smile: "That's all the kid can say, whether he agrees to you or not." ”

After a pause, Kou Ji said again: "Since the kid has asked you to be the secretary of the military department, he is naturally giving you benefits." If it is not good, the kid will not come to this door.

There is one more thing that the kid forgot to tell you.

Before I came, my grandfather said that if you are willing to take up the post of secretary of the military department, he is willing to help you and let you sit firmly in the position of the secretary of the military department. ”

Cao Wei was stunned for a moment, and said in amazement: "Kou Gong is willing to help me speak?" ”

Kou Ji smiled and nodded.

Cao Wei pondered for a moment, and said with a smile: "The premise is that at a critical time, I also have to listen to Kou Gong's arrangement, right?" ”

Kou Ji didn't speak, still smiling.

Apparently acquiesced in this statement.

Cao Wei shook his head and smiled: "But why should I listen to Kou Gong's arrangement? According to the status of my Cao family, there is no need to listen to anyone's arrangement. ”

Kou Ji shook his head and said, "Once Liu E takes control of the imperial court, your Cao family wants to listen to the arrangement, but you can't find a chance." ”

Cao Wei's face changed.

Kou Ji's words can be regarded as poking at Cao Wei's soft underbelly.

The martial arts family seems to be full of wealth, but only they know the sourness behind their backs.

The rulers of all generations have given them wealth and wealth.

But while the officials of the past generations gave them wealth and wealth, they were weakening the power in their hands.

Now they have very little power left.

If it is weakened any longer, they will have nothing but money and fame in their hands.

And without power, they can keep their money and reputation.

After Liu E took control of the imperial court, it would inevitably weaken the power of the Wuxun family.

Because Liu E has never had a good impression of the Wuxun family.

When she first entered the court, she was embarrassed by the ladies from the martial arts family in the palace.

So she has a grudge against the Wuxun family.

In these years, when she handled the government for Zhao Heng, she united with civil officials to suppress the martial arts family.

Cao Wei looked at Kou Ji with an ugly face, and said in a deep voice: "You and Kou Gong are going to deal with the queen?" ”

Kou Ji shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile: "My grandfather has been against her, and the Manchu Dynasty knows about it both civil and military. ”

Cao Wei was just about to speak, but Kou Ji took the lead and said: "Once Liu E is in power, the biggest threat will definitely be your martial arts family. Your martial arts family did not rise up to resist at this time, but instead accepted it.

I really don't understand, what are you doing here?

Are you hoping that Liu E will be kind to you?

Or are you looking forward to Liu E following the ancestral teachings and letting you martial arts family rest with the country? ”

Kou Ji's words reached Cao Wei's heart again.

The reason why the Wuxun family has been weakened again and again, but rarely resists, is because when the imperial court weakens them, it will always compensate for the corresponding wealth.

At the same time, it has always kept its promise to rest with the country.

They felt that even though Liu E was in charge of the government and wanted to suppress the Wuxun family, at most it would only weaken the power in their hands, but it would not rob them of their wealth.

They felt that Liu E would follow the ancestral teachings and let them rest with the country.

Kou Ji saw that Cao Wei was silent, and said faintly: "Uncle Cao, the three words of Tui Enling, I don't know if you have heard of it." ”

Cao Wei was stunned for a moment, and said in a deep voice: "What do you want to say?" ”

Kou Ji said with a smile: "What I want to say is that the methods used by the officials of the past dynasties to deal with your martial arts family are very similar to the Tui En Order. The Tui En Decree weakened the power in the hands of the princes and generals through repeated separations, and eventually allowed them to die for themselves.

The officials of the past dynasties also used little by little wealth to exchange power from your hands little by little.

When the power in your hands dies out, that is when you perish. ”

When Cao Wei heard this, his face became even more ugly.

Kou Ji smiled and continued: "Once the queen is in power, she doesn't even need to deal with you personally. She just needs to keep taking what little power you have out of your hands and strengthening the power held by the civil servants.

When the civil servants have enough power to get rid of you in one fell swoop, do you think the civil servants will still keep their hands on you? ”

Cao Wei's face changed again and again.

Kou Ji said again: "Rich! Power! They all relied on their own hands to get it back. and not by the handouts given to you, nor by sitting and waiting. ”

When Cao Wei heard this, he finally didn't calm down, he gritted his teeth, stared at Kou Ji, and said in a deep voice: "If I go to the Ministry of War to serve as the secretary of the Ministry of War, can I keep the wealth of the Wuxun family in the hands of Liu E?" ”

Kou Ji shook his head and said, "I don't know...... I still say that wealth and power are earned by oneself, not by others. Whether the Wuxun family can always be rich or not depends on you. ”

Cao Wei waved his hand and said in a deep voice, "You step back first...... I'm going to think about it. ”

Kou Ji didn't dwell on it anymore, arched his hand, and withdrew from the main hall of Caofu.

As soon as he went out, he bumped into Cao Xu, who was staring at him with a black face.

I saw Cao Xu glaring at him, gritting his teeth and saying, "Di Qing is a poor boy, why can't he look down on my sister?" ”

Kou Ji was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "Aren't you unwilling to see your sister marry Di Qing?" Why did you care about this again? ”
