The official family is actually pretending to be sick? ”

Kou Ji looked surprised.

Wang Zeng said with a dark face: "Don't pretend to be confused for the old man. You pretend to be sick at the same time as the official, if there is no cat in it, the old man will take off his head and kick it for you. ”

Kou Ji's face turned bitter, and he muttered, "You have wronged me." I pretended to be sick, and that was to keep my head up. I was persuaded to keep my head down, but you and my grandfather.

I pretended to be sick according to your admonition.

How can you look far away from good people. ”

Wang Zeng glared and said, "Didn't you say that you have the world in mind and are ready to go through the world?" Isn't it unwilling to keep quiet? ”

"I didn't want to, but now I do."

Kou Ji said with a serious face: "Before I returned with a big victory, I was a little fluttering by the people, and it was inevitable that I would be a little arrogant and say some unashamed words.

These days, I calmed down and thought about it in the house, only to realize that it was a joke to go through the world. ”

Wang Zeng stared at Kou Ji in astonishment, "What do you mean?" Do you feel like you're not talented, inexperienced, or have someone on your feet? ”

Kou Ji shook his head and sighed, "It's not long enough to live......"

Wang Zeng blinked, a little unintelligible in Kou Ji's words.

Kou Ji sighed and explained, "How big is the world? My Great Song Dynasty only took a small Hexi, and it took more than a year. If you want to get back the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, it will take more time.

Compared to the world, what is Hexi?

What are the sixteen states of Yanyun?

It's these two small places that we have to spend years, even decades.

If you want to navigate the world, the time it takes will increase exponentially.

Can I live for hundreds of years?

Can't live.

Since you can't live, what else is there to talk about the world. ”

Wang Zeng opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.

When Kou Ji explained to him the ambition of the world before, he was a little excited.

I complained in my heart that I was getting older, otherwise I could have participated in it.

Now hearing Kou Ji's words, Wang Zeng reacted, at that time, his thoughts were led astray by Kou Ji, and he didn't consider the stubble of time.

No matter how big the ambition is, no matter how big the ambition, it seems a little insignificant in the face of time.

This is not a private assertion by Wang Zeng, but there are examples to follow.

For example, the Qin Emperor and Han Wu, who have been praised through the ages.

Both of them are undoubtedly eloquent.

They probably have the same idea as Kou Ji, to hit the edge of the sky, pass through the world, let the whole world be the king's land, and let the coast of the land be all the king's ministers.

But both of them lost to time.

They have ambition and ambition, but they don't have time.

That's why they make the move of pursuing immortality.

With the two examples of Emperor Qin and Han Wu in front, Kou Ji's worries are not a utopia.

It's a very practical, very realistic idea.

Kou Ji saw that Wang Zeng fell into silence, so he continued: "Since it is a joke to go through the world, then I can only control my heart and fight in the Great Song Dynasty in peace.

Since I want to fight in the court of the Great Song Dynasty, then I have to keep my light and keep myself from embarking on the road of being unsealable.

lest the whole world can't tolerate me and let me die. ”

Kou Ji solemnly continued: "I cherish my life, I want to live a long life, so I have to follow the advice of you and my grandfather. ”

"Hey......"

Wang Zeng sighed, stared at Kou Ji and asked, "Do you really plan to give up the world and keep your eyes on it?" ”

Without waiting for Kou Ji to speak, Wang Zeng hesitated and said, "We don't have enough time, we still have future generations......

Kou Ji was slightly stunned, he didn't expect Wang Zeng to say the same thing as he said in Shazhou.

Kou Ji guessed that Wang Zeng was probably really moved by his previous words, and had the intention of seeking for all generations.

Kou Ji had the intention to pull Wang Zeng to have a good chat, but in the end he held back.

He sighed and said, "Prime Minister Wang, we can't be sure whether our children and grandchildren will follow the road we have paved. The First Emperor is a living example of this.

When the first emperor was young, he often went to the palace to accompany Taizu, and often said that he wanted to be a general, leading the soldiers and horses of the Great Song Dynasty, fighting in all directions, and making contributions to the Great Song Dynasty.

Taizu praised him a lot for this.

But after Emperor Xian ascended the throne, did he really do what he promised to Taizu? ”

"Hey......"

Wang Zeng let out a long sigh again.

Because what Kou Ji said is another cruel reality.

What future generations will do, and whether future generations will follow the path they have paved, no one dares to say.

Seeing that Wang Zeng was silent, Kou Ji continued: "So, Prime Minister Wang, the reason why I hid in the mansion and pretended to be sick was not because I was planning anything behind my back, but because I followed the advice of you and my grandfather and kept my eyes on the throne in Taoguang. ”

Wang Zeng pondered for a moment, nodded suspiciously, and asked, "Then do you know what the official family is pretending to be sick for?" What is the purpose of the official family indulging in civil and military disputes?

What's more, how could the officials allow such an important thing to be in the hands of outsiders? ”

Kou Ji said dumbly: "What does the official family think, how do I know?" If you want to know what the official family is thinking, just ask the official family. ”

Wang Zeng glared at Kou Ji and said angrily: "If the official family is willing to tell the old man, can the old man ask you?" ”

Kou Ji laughed dryly and said, "If you think that the word Jiaozipu must be in the hands of the imperial court, you can just fight on behalf of the imperial court." The official family pretended to be sick and refused to speak, probably because he wanted to clean up the Wei Wangfu, but the official family couldn't go into battle in person, so the official family was waiting for someone to help him. ”

Wang Zeng frowned and said: "The official family has only recalled the Wei Wangfu lineage, and if they take action to clean them up now, will they have an unkind reputation?" ”

Kou Ji smiled and said: "The Wei Wangfu is in the lineage, and it has only been a few months since I returned to Bianjing City, and I have already done a lot of arrogant things. The name of Bahu has spread throughout the Great Song Dynasty.

The official family cleaned them up, and it was also in line with the people's will.

After the official family cleaned up the Wei Wangfu, whether it would have an unkind reputation, I don't know.

But I know that after the official family finishes cleaning up the Wei Wangfu, the people will definitely praise the official family for their wisdom and martial arts. ”

Wang Zeng nodded slowly, and said, "It's not easy to clean up the Wei Wangfu now. The civil and military rivalry has reached a point where the Wei Wangfu is on one side with the Wenchen, and it is difficult for the old man to win over other Wenchen and deal with the Wei Wangfu together.

If the old man uses the power of Wuxun to deal with the Wei Wangfu, he will be cut off from the ranks of the civil servants, and he may be reduced to a loner at that time. ”

Kou Ji said with a smile: "This martial arts dispute in the court originated from the members of the one-word Jiaozi shop. Now that the civil and military ministers are fighting each other, some people have forgotten the fundamental purpose of this civil and military conflict.

If someone can represent the imperial court, take back some of the members of the one-word Jiaozipu from the three families of Qian, Meng, and Mu.

Push the word Jiaozi shop back in front of people.

Then the eyes of the Manchu Dynasty civil and military will be re-attracted to the word Jiaozi shop.

At that time, it will become the side of the imperial court, the side of the Wei Wangfu, and the side of the martial arts.

The three parties fight each other for interests, and it has nothing to do with the civil and military divisions.

When the time comes, who you want to take and punish whom, it will be a conflict of interests, and it has nothing to do with civil and military. ”

After listening to Kou Ji's words, Wang Zeng thought for a moment, nodded and said, "The old man will go back to the mansion of the three Qian Le to see if they are interested in anything and are willing to hand over the share of the shop." ”

Kou Ji smiled and nodded.

Wang Zeng suddenly looked at Kou Ji and glared at Kou Ji viciously.

"You and the official family owe the old man a favor!"

Wang Zeng dropped this sentence, and without waiting for Kou Ji to reply, he snorted coldly and left the Kou Mansion with his hands behind his back.

After Wang Zeng left, Kou Ji sighed slightly, "Smart people can't deceive." ”

Although Kou Ji covered up many times, made various excuses, and tried his best to draw a line between himself and the matter of Jiaozipu.

But Wang Zeng still passed his words and heard some clues.

So when he left, he snorted coldly and said that Kou Ji and Zhao Zhen owed him a favor.

Fortunately, there is Zhao Zhen in this.

Otherwise, the fate of deceiving Wang Zeng will not be a simple favor that can be revealed.

With Wang Zeng's temperament, if he was really angry, he would probably press Kou Ji to the ground and beat him.

Don't look at Kou Ji is now the prince of the country.

Wang Zeng dared to fight in the same way.

When Wang Zengzhi often closed the position, he even dared to cut off the heads of the emperor's relatives, how could he be afraid of Kou Ji's identity.

Once Wang Zeng made a move, Kou Ji didn't even have a chance to fight back.

Don't look at Wang Zeng, Kou Zhun, Li Di and others who are old and old, their personal strength is more than a star and a half stronger than Kou Ji.

Not only have they learned martial arts, but they have also used to tear and kill on the battlefield with a sword.

Far more powerful than Koji.

Wang Zeng left the Kou Mansion and returned to the palace, and discussed privately with Lu Yijian and the others.

Then Wang Zeng appeared outside the palace again and walked towards the Mu Mansion.

Mufu used to be an imperial merchant, and Wang Zeng felt that if he persuaded the people of the shogunate, it would be easier for the people of the shogunate to defect to the imperial court.

However.

Wang Zeng didn't expect that when he arrived at the Mu Mansion, he met Mu Chong, the head of the Mu family, and just explained his intentions, he was rejected by Mu Chong.

Mu Chong's mind was simple.

Mu Mansion originally only had two components of the Jiaozi Shop, but now it has handed over one percent to the Wei Wangfu lineage, and with the blessing of the Wei Wangfu lineage, he saved his life, so there is no need to give the other half away.

Mu Chong felt that after the Wei Wangfu Yimai took action to protect him, the official Zhao Zhen did not attack them again, which means that the official Zhao Zhen temporarily let them go for the sake of the Wei Wangfu Yimai.

Since there is no danger for the time being, it can be sold at a high price, taking advantage of the fact that the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty are fighting for the right culprit of the word Jiaozi shop, and sell the part of the word Jiaozi shop at a high price.

Yes.

After Mu Chong realized that he was weak and powerless in the face of power, he didn't think about taking advantage of the word Jiaozi shop.

He was ready to take advantage of the protection of the Wei Wangfu to sell a part of the Jiaozi shop in exchange for a large amount of money, and then leave Bianjing with his family and return to Shuzhong to live.

Businessmen are greedy by nature.

In the case that they feel it is profitable, they will never give away their own benefits to others for free.

Mu Chong and Meng Weizhong were undoubtedly qualified businessmen, so Mu Chong rejected Wang Zeng.

Meng Weizhong also rejected Wang Zeng when he came to the door.

After being rejected by the two families in a row, Wang Zeng was very unhappy.

He pinned his last bit of hope on Qian Le.

When he arrived at the Qian Mansion, he was a little stunned.

The people besieged inside and outside the Qian Mansion were very domineering and did not allow anyone to approach the Qian Mansion.

Wang Zeng revealed his identity, and after several confessions, he entered the Qian Mansion, and then was welcomed into the main hall.

Wang had sat in the main hall for a long time, but he did not see Qian Le.

Until Wang Zeng waited a little impatiently and was ready to ask.

A white-faced and beardless man took a document and handed it to Wang Zeng.

In the face of Wang Zeng, that man was neither humble nor arrogant.

"My master asked the villain to hand it over to Wang Xiang."

The document was handed to Wang Zeng, and the man said simply.

Wang Zeng looked at the white-faced bearded man, and then looked down at the paperwork in his hand a few times.

Although Wang Zeng had already guessed that the current trend of Yizi Jiaozipu was related to Kou Ji and Zhao Zhen, but now that it has been confirmed, he is still a little unhappy.

Kou Ji kept saying that the current changes in Yizizipu have nothing to do with him.

If it really has nothing to do with him, then why did what he told Wang Zeng come true one by one.

Wang Zeng has already got his hands on the part of the shop.

As long as the king once publicized it in the name of the imperial court, the scene of the three-way fight would appear immediately.

Everything was as if it was arranged.

It's not like that.

To be precise, it is arranged.

Wang Zeng could even imagine what kind of scene he would have after the announcement of the matter of getting a piece of Jiaozi shop on behalf of the imperial court.

The official family quietly won two percent.

The remaining forty percent is precious.

For the sake of those four elements, the three parties will definitely have a fierce fight.

Some people may wonder if this matter is the bureau's bureau after the rumors spread?

But if you doubt it, you don't have to fight?

From the very beginning, everyone knew that the official family was determined to win the part of the shop.

They still make a move, just to take advantage of the fire.

The Qian Mansion is controlled by the people in the palace, and it's not that no one knows.

There are many people who know.

But why didn't they have the suspicion that they were being calculated?

That's because when everyone was fighting, they saw that the people in the palace controlled the Qian Mansion, and they knew that Zhao Zhen had already eaten the Qian Mansion into his mouth.

The matter of snatching the elements of the one-word Jiaozi shop was Zhao Zhen who started first, and Zhao Zhen was the first to lay out.

Zhao Zhen, as the first person in the world, has done so much in order to get back the share of the word Jiaozipu, if he can't get anything, then he will probably be mad.

When the time comes, no one will be able to make any good profits.

So after everyone learned that the part of the Qian Mansion was eaten by Zhao Zhen, they did not fight for it, but watched Zhao Zhen eat the share of the Qian Mansion.

Zhao Zhen has eaten a share, and he has already reaped the benefits, and the possibility of being mad has dropped to a very low level.

Everyone snatched the other four components of the shop, and the anger from the official family was minimized.

The chances of success also increase dramatically.
