"One counts the enemy's heart and makes the enemy tired, the second counts hurt the enemy's strength and damages the enemy's vitality, and the third counts kill the enemy and hurt the enemy fundamentally, which is called a chain plan. (The text was first published in the Cabinet biquge.info)"

………

Lu Chunxiao got a solution from Xiao Wenruan, felt that it was foolproof, and left happily.

However, Lu Chunxiao didn't know that after he left, Xiao Wenruan, who was originally tired and plain, gradually became stern in his face.

Xiao Wenruan has been fighting with Zhou Shangjing all his life, and he doesn't know much about Zhou Shangjing's scheming methods.

This impeachment excerpt that suddenly appeared was just a small measure, but the timing was just right, it was actually a dilemma for the prince's party, no matter how he chose, it was detrimental and useless, its ingenuity, its concealment, its ruthlessness, killing people invisibly, combined with the temple shape of these days, Xiao Wenruan has already seen the shadow of Zhou Shangjing from it.

Although this matter seems to have been solved by Xiao Wenruan, Xiao Wenruan knows better that Zhou Shangjing's scheming methods are by no means more than that, once he wants to calculate someone, his plans and traps are definitely one ring after another, that is, they cannot be prevented, and they are pressing step by step.

Leaning back in the Taishi's chair, Xiao Wenruan was silent for a long time, and suddenly sighed softly and muttered to himself: "It seems that with the prince's momentum now and the support of His Majesty, Zhou Shangjing finally made a move." The old man was worried about this at the beginning, so he wanted to return to his hometown, and He Ming would take over the position of the prince and the prince. didn't expect He Ming to come yet, and Zhou Shangjing couldn't wait to make a move. ”

“…… Zhou Shangjing, Zhou Shangjing, you have already been in power all over the world now, and you are old, although you are a powerful minister, you are in the court. All the merits are greater than the faults, and the success will be retired in the future. That is, to be able to follow up on the good death. Wouldn't it be just right to be able to leave behind the shadows of future generations? Why are you not satisfied? Do you still want to continue the power of the old Zhou family, and even control the future prince? ……”

With another light sigh, Xiao Wenruan continued to whisper to himself: "But." Judging from Zhou Shangjing's means, this is probably just the beginning. Maybe it's just a temptation, the old man and Zhou Shangjing have been fighting for a lifetime, and they are always defeated and unwon. I've long been tired of it. But I didn't expect that when I was dying of old age, I still couldn't hide after all, not only was I not allowed to be idle, but I also had to fight with you again, that's it, the old man is still the prince and the master after all. Before Zhishi, the prince could not be framed. However, this time, the old man didn't want to lose again. ”

After making up his mind, Xiao Wenruan, who was originally dying and old and had always been weak, seemed to suddenly feel much more energetic.

Holding on to the armrest next to the Taishi chair, Xiao Wenruan stood up with a little difficulty, and then called, "Someone is coming." ”

But in a moment, someone from the Xiao Mansion pushed the door in, lowered his head and asked, "Master, what do you command?" ”

Xiao Wenruan didn't answer immediately, but came to the desk, wrote a quick book, wrote a short message, and stuffed it into the envelope before he said slowly: "Send someone to take the old man's name card, hurry up, and go to Hunan to see if He Ming's old guy has left, if he hasn't done yet, give him this letter and urge him to come to Beijing quickly." ”

As he spoke, a trace of doubt flashed in Xiao Wenruan's eyes.

As early as four months ago, he began to contact He Ming, asking He Ming to come to Beijing to take over the position of the crown prince and prince, calculating the time, He Ming should have come to Beijing a long time ago, but these days, Xiao Wenruan has not received any news.

Although he had already made up his mind to fight with Zhou Shangjing again, his past achievements made Xiao Wenruan have no confidence after all, and if He Ming, who was proficient in the emperor's mental skills, was by his side, the situation would be different.

After the subordinate respectfully accepted the secret letter, a trace of hesitation flashed on Xiao Wenruan's face, but he finally spoke, and continued to instruct: "Also, send someone to Lao Junguan in the southern suburbs of the capital, and let the Taoist priest there refine two golden pills for the old man." ”

Hearing Xiao Wenruan's command, the next person was shocked, raised his head, his face was full of surprise, and subconsciously stopped: "Master, do you want to continue to take Jindan?" How can this be? Jindan is a kind of thing, although it will be more energetic after taking it, but it is full of weakness on the outside and weak on the inside, hurting the texture, you don't know it, sir. ”

Since Xiao Wenruan turned 60, he believes in the Taoist way of health preservation, and often asks Taoist priests to refine Jindan to take, but today, he has learned a lesson, but he has already understood that the so-called "Jindan" is a deceptive thing, and the elixir refined from gold, water and mercury and other substances, where can people take it? Especially since the mercury is still highly toxic!

As the person said, after taking Jindan, although you can be energetic for a while, and even your mind will be much clearer, but it is just a lack of vitality on the outside and a deficiency on the inside. If you are young and strong, there are pros and cons to taking "Jindan", at least there is still vitality to overdraw, but at the age of Xiao Wenruan, the vitality has long been exhausted, and the "Jindan" thing is no different from suicide poison.

After listening to the advice of the next person, Xiao Wenruan was silent for a moment, then suddenly smiled, with a little ease, and said slowly: "At the age of the old man, it is already good to be able to be 'external', where can I care about whether there is 'inner void'?" What difference does it make if you live for another three years or another year? ”

After a pause, Xiao Wenruan said again: "When is the old man's limit, the old man doesn't know, but the old man understands that the old man is really old, his energy is low, and his brain is no longer as clear and sharp as it was back then, and he can't figure out many things." If this continues, where will that man be the opponent? Although the thing of Jindan is highly poisonous to the old man, as long as the old man can be more energetic and spiritual, as long as the old man can be clear-headed, as long as the old man can stalemate with that person for a while, and finally protect the prince thoroughly, no matter what the cost, the old man will admit it. ”

Xiao Wenruan's words, the subordinates did not understand, but the determination in Xiao Wenruan's words, the subordinates heard it.

Therefore, after being silent for a moment, the subordinate finally gritted his teeth and nodded: "Master, I understand, I will go and arrange it for the master." ”

Looking at the back of the departing subordinate, Xiao Wenruan returned to the Taishi chair and sat down, his face was tired, his eyes were slightly closed, and he muttered: "Old, really old, just doing such a little thing." I've already exhausted my energy, if God can give me a few more years. Why should I rely on a poison like Jindan? Things don't go as planned. Ten of the **, it really ......"

The sound is getting lower and lower.

After these things, Xiao Wenruan really needs to rest.

………

Every move in the capital can't be hidden from Zhou Shangjing's eyes.

Including the Xiao Mansion and the Metropolitan Procuratorate.

So. Soon, whether it was the news of Lu Chunxiao's visit to Xiao Wenruan. Or the news that the Metropolitan Procuratorate rejected the impeachment excerpt, or the news that Xiao Fu sent people to the Laojun Temple in the south of the city to ask for Jindan, has already reached Zhou Shangjing.

At this time. Shen Changmao and Huang Yourong have already left. In the study, only Zhou Shangjing remained, and Zhou De, the head of the Zhou Mansion.

Like Xiao Wenruan, Zhou Shangjing was sitting in the Taishi chair at this time, his eyes slightly closed, listening to Zhou De report the news to him. After learning that the impeachment excerpt had been dismissed, God did not move. It seems to have been predicted.

But after learning the news that Xiao Wenruan sent someone to Laojun Temple to ask for Jindan, Zhou Shangjing suddenly sighed softly, slowly opened his eyes, and a trace of regret flashed between his eyes.

Seeing Zhou Shangjing like this, Zhou De couldn't help but be stunned, and asked softly, "Master, what's wrong?" "The old man has been on the temple for many years, and there are not many opponents who can make the old man admire, but Xiao Wenruan is one." Zhou Shangjing said quietly: "The old man admires him, it's nothing else, it's his stubbornness and righteousness, above the temple, all factions, always enemies and friends, there is fighting, there is cooperation, although the old man has countless political enemies, but he has basically cooperated, just like these days the old man and Huang Yourong, Shen Changmao, Zhao Junchen and they cooperate." ”

After a pause, Zhou Shangjing felt a little more emotional, and said: "But over the years, I have always regarded the old man as an enemy, and I have never united with the old man in Sī, I'm afraid it is this Xiao Wenruan." This old guy, when he was young, and the current prince is the same as the prince, in his eyes, a loyal minister is a loyal minister, a powerful minister is a powerful minister, between the two, there is no possibility of union at all, always a businesslike appearance, oil and salt do not enter, so that the old man is helpless. ”

Zhou De said with a smile: "It's just a pedantic person." ”

Zhou Shangjing smiled and nodded: "It is true that he is pedantic, but if he is a perfect person, it is okay." The old man once sent someone to check on him, but found that this person has been an official for decades, and he has never accepted bribes in his sī, he has been upright all his life, and everything he does is for the king and the country, and there is no shortage of ability and means. ”

Speaking of this, Zhou Shangjing sighed again and said: "Seriously, there are really too few people like this, although the old man and him are friends and enemies, but between the battles over the years, they are always admired, if it weren't for his disdain for the old man, the old man wouldn't mind being friends with him." ”

Hearing Zhou Shangjing say this, he agreed with Xiao Wenruan between words, but Zhou De didn't dare to say that Xiao Wenruan was not, just hung his head and waited for Zhou Shangjing's orders.

It's just that Zhou Shangjing didn't know why today, he actually changed his normality, talked about it, and said: "This time, this Xiao Wenruan's determination was beyond the old man's expectations, a few years ago he relied on Jindan's things to maintain his health, the old man knew, I thought that this time he would force him a few more times, let him be in a hurry, and after feeling that his energy was weak, he would think of Jindan's refreshing effect again, but he didn't expect that after he found out that it was the old man who made a move, he didn't need to be persecuted, he was already going to ask for Jindan, it seems that he fought with the old man this time, I made a lot of determination. ”

Speaking of this, Zhou Shangjing shook his head, as if there was a flash of sadness, and sighed: "Although Xiao Wenruan's means are not as scheming as the old man, he has rich experience and a spicy vision, with him on the side to protect the prince, even if it is an old man, he can't succeed in a short time, so he can't stay, it's a pity, there are not many perfect people in this world, and now there is one less." ”

Then, I saw Zhou Shangjing take a sandalwood box from the side of the desk, put it in his hand and stroked it for a long time, handed it to Zhou De in front of him, and said softly: "In this, there are two golden pills that have been practiced for many years, and now it is finally time to use them." Zhou De, you send it to Laojunguan. ”

Zhou De's eyes lit up, he already understood what Zhou Shangjing meant, and respectfully held the box of Jin Dan, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, master, what to do, I understand." ”

Zhou Shangjing didn't seem to want to say anything, his eyes closed slightly, and he waved his hand to make Zhou De retreat.

………

In this world, many times, the word "determination" is often associated with "sacrifice".

But there are two kinds of sacrifice, one is to sacrifice oneself and the other is to sacrifice others.
