Zhao Zhen heard Kou Ji's words, and said with a faint smile, "The Cao family has already given me a letter of nomination, so I don't have to worry about them." ”

Kou Ji said with a look of surprise: "What kind of name is it, which makes you so reassuring to them." ”

"Danshu Iron Scroll ......"

Zhao Zhen said faintly.

Kou Ji was stunned and said, "The Cao family took the initiative to return the Danshu Iron Scroll to you?" ”

Zhao Zhen shook his head and said, "I can't talk about returning it, but it's just temporarily handed over to me for safekeeping." ”

Kou Jiba clicked his mouth and said with emotion: "The Cao family is really ...... Awesome......"

Danshu Iron Scroll, whether it can save his life, no one knows.

Because whether the Danshu iron scroll is useful or not depends on the mood of the person sitting on the throne.

If he thinks that the iron scroll of the Dan book is naturally a sharp weapon to save his life.

If he doesn't recognize it, the iron scroll of the Danshu is a life-urging talisman.

The Danshu iron scroll is more of a symbol of status, and it is also a kind of proof of commitment to rest with the country.

If the Cao family didn't have the Danshu iron scroll as a certificate, what would they do to find the imperial court to fulfill Emperor Taizu's promise to rest with the country?

If Zhao Zhen had a heart for killing them after they handed over the iron scroll of the Danshu, they could only stand silently and could not resist.

The Cao family handed over the iron scroll of Danshu, which is equivalent to handing over the wealth of several generations and the lives of several generations to Zhao Zhen.

No wonder Zhao Zhen believes in Cao Tong so much.

Zhao Zhen heard Kou Ji's emotion, and said with a smile: "You reminded Cao Yan?" Otherwise, why did the Cao family put such a big incense bait and didn't eat it? ”

Kou Ji rolled his eyes and said, "Are you complaining about me?" I reminded Cao Tong that it was also to help you solve your troubles. If the Cao family enters the game, it is difficult to say whether we can win or not.

Even if you win, the harm to you far outweighs the good.

You cleaned up the Cao family, how will you get along with Queen Cao in the future?

You cleaned up the Cao family, will Cao Wei still work hard to help you work hard? ”

Zhao Zhen said with a smile: "I didn't mean to complain about you, fourth brother. It was only through this incident that I discovered that the fourth brother had a more comprehensive and long-term view than me.

If the Cao family enters the game, Wu Xun may really form a group and fight against me.

There's a good chance I'll lose.

At that time, my situation will be very embarrassing.

I have offended all the martial artists, and the martial artists will definitely form a group, embarrass me, and disobey my orders.

My prestige in the court will be greatly reduced, and my ambition to recover Yanyun will probably be wiped out.

The fourth brother should have seen this a long time ago, so when I started the layout, I reminded the Cao family and let the Cao family not enter the game. ”

Kou Ji sighed: "The official family is still young, and it is the first time that such a big game has been arranged, and it is normal that there will be omissions." The existence of ministers is to help the officials to check and fill in the gaps.

Officials don't have to be arrogant.

Even if they lose, they can still do what the officials want to do.

We couldn't defeat them with our minds, so we destroyed them by force. ”

Zhao Zhen said with emotion: "Although the military power of the martial artists has been confiscated, the influence of the martial artists in the army is not weak. In terms of force, their force is far stronger than ours. ”

Kou Ji said indifferently: "Their influence in the army has also been accumulated from generation to generation. Let's find a way to weaken their influence in the military. ”

Zhao Zhen said in a deep voice: "The imperial court has been doing things that weaken their influence in the army. The decree of emphasizing literature and suppressing military force has been secretly implemented. But you can also see the drawbacks of this decree, fourth brother.

The ministers did not understand military affairs, and arbitrarily interfered in military affairs, which led to the foreign wars of our Great Song Dynasty, and they were defeated again and again.

I want to recover Yanyun, but I don't want to repeat the mistake of my grandfather and defeat Yanyun.

I can't think of a way to get the best of both worlds. ”

Kou Ji pondered: "This matter is also easy. But now is not the time to say it. Weakening the influence of martial artists in the military is not an overnight thing.

It takes a long time.

What we need to do now is to clean up the pedantic ministers in the court first.

This is also the main purpose of the official layout.

When the pedantic ministers in the court are cleaned up, I will be able to unite with the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty.

Attacking Yanyun, at that time.

When we take down Yanyun and have the world's achievements, whether it is to eliminate the influence of the martial artists in the army, or to rectify the maladministration ruthlessly, it will be much easier. ”

Kou Ji reminded Zhao Zhen not to forget the true purpose of this layout.

Zhao Zhen was reminded by Kou Ji, and slowly came back to his senses.

Although this layout encompasses the entire court, it is not to deal with Wu Xun.

It's to clean up the pedantic ministers in the court.

So you can't just stare at Wu Xun, but also at other people.

You have to eat it bite by bite.

Eat as much as you have a belly.

If you eat too much, you can easily be strung to death.

Zhao Zhen came back to his senses and smiled bitterly at Kou Ji, "It's that I think too much......

Kou Ji smiled indifferently: "The official family is laughing." The official family just saw that my Da Song was seriously ill and wanted to cure all the illnesses in one go. The official's mind is still good, but it's a little too big. ”

Zhao Zhen smiled bitterly when he heard this.

"Fourth brother entered the palace this time, what happened?"

After Zhao Zhen relaxed, he found that Kou Ji had not yet said the purpose of entering the palace this time, so he asked.

Kou Ji said with a smile: "Qian Le found the door, I guessed that something went wrong with the person you planted in the Qian Mansion, so I want to enter the palace to remind you." Now that you know, I don't need to say anything more. ”

Zhao Zhen smiled bitterly: "It's my people who can't do the errand well, so the fourth brother is worried." ”

Kou Ji shook his head and said, "It should be ......"

After saying this, Kou Ji got up and bowed slowly to Zhao Zhen, "What should be said, the minister has already finished speaking." The minister was not in the palace, so he stayed ......"

Before Kou Ji's words were finished, Zhao Zhen interrupted him.

"The fourth brother finally entered the palace and accompanied me to have some meals before leaving."

Kou Ji thought about it for a moment, nodded and agreed to Zhao Zhen's invitation.

The two of them talked and laughed and went to the dining place.

The people in the imperial dining room had already prepared their meals.

The two were talking and laughing while eating and drinking.

After you have eaten and drunk.

Kou Ji asked to retire again.

Zhao Zhen did not stop him, and sent someone to send Kou Ji out of the palace.

Thereafter.

The two didn't meet again, and they didn't make any moves, so they quietly watched the dignitaries and nobles in Bianjing City, and entered the game one by one.

Qian Le was accused, and the Qian Mansion was sealed.

Qian Le was arrested and taken to Kaifeng Mansion and confronted the person who accused him.

The rest of the Qian Mansion was not implicated, and they nested in the mansion one by one, closing their doors.

Meng Weizhong and Mu Chong, after learning that Qian Le had been sued in Kaifeng Mansion, realized that Zhao Zhen had taken action against them.

They expressed great doubts about Zhao Zhen not finding a reason to arrest them all and behead them for public display.

But I didn't think much about it.

When their lives are threatened, what they think about the most is how to save their lives.

The two of them, without saying a word, went to Kou Mansion to visit Kou Ji together.

Kou Ji was sick again, and it was still a very serious illness, and he couldn't see the guests.

So the two of them had a closed meal in front of the Kou Mansion.

Kou Ji didn't see them, and the two of them panicked.

The two of them got together and discussed, planning to use their secret hands hidden in the Yizi shop to resist and force Kou Ji to come out to meet them.

If Zhao Zhen can be forced out, it will be even better.

However.

When they returned to the mansion and privately sent someone to contact their hidden hands buried in the shop, they found that all the secret hands had been cut off.

They want to resist with the secret hand buried in the shop, which has become a luxury.

The two figures who were astonished in the business world of the Great Song Dynasty realized how stupid it was to go against a king of a country and a prince of real power.

Resist, there is no way to resist, and there is no power to resist.

Then find a way to beg for your life.

Koji refused to see them.

Zhao Zhen: They can't see each other again.

Then they will have to beg for their lives in other ways.

The two discussed for a long time, and finally got through Zhang Shixun's door with some acquaintances.

Under Zhang Shixun's introduction, he entered the Wei Palace.

The two of them each paid a part of the Jiaozi shop, and successfully invested in the door of the Wei Wangfu.

The Wei Wangfu immediately sent someone to Kaifeng Mansion and arrogantly forced away the big salt merchant.

The big salt merchant invited his clan brother to reason with the people of the Wei Wangfu, and was beaten up.

The reputation of the Wei Wangfu spread all over Bianjing City at once.

The twists and turns of the impeachment of the Wei Wangfu drifted into the palace like snowflakes.

The same is true for the maintenance of the Wei Wangfu's lineage.

Zhao Zhen's attitude towards this is very intriguing.

Don't care, don't ask, don't listen, don't look.

Zhao Zhen didn't seem to see the twists and turns of the impeachment of the Wei Palace.

When the courtiers asked, he also looked at him left and right.

Annoyed by the courtiers, he also learned from Kou Ji and began to pretend to be sick.

Zhao Zhen's actions made the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty feel that Zhao Zhen was maintaining the vein of the Wei Palace.

Some well-intentioned people, through Zhao Zhen's actions, speculated on another thing.

Zhao Zhen doesn't seem to be disgusted by the fact that the Wei Wangfu has obtained a part of the shop.

And so.

The people in the Wei Wangfu line are even more domineering.

The couple who sued Meng Weizhong were set on fire at night and burned to death.

There is no bitter master.

In addition, there are people in the line of Wei Wangfu.

Meng Weizhong's case is over.

The people thought it was all over.

People who are interested find that everything has just begun.

Gao Chugong, Shi Yuansun, and Pan Weiji didn't care if the Cao family was preparing to be a yellow bird behind their backs, and began to go into battle shirtless.

Shi Yuansun led the elder brother of the big salt merchant, Wailang, a member of the military department, to rush to the court and cry out for him.

said that Wailang, a member of the military department, was his father's old department, and now he has been wronged, and he has to take care of it.

Gao Zuo Gong also took the uncle who had been living for many years and went to the court to complain.

They mobilized the martial arts attached to them, and indignantly denounced the Wei Wangfu in the court.

Wei Wangfu felt that Zhao Zhen was biased towards them behind his back, so he was naturally not to be outdone.

The two sides set off a war of scolding in the court.

The noise went on all day.

In the end, in Zhao Zhen's angry reprimand, he died down.

Gao Chu Gong and others did not seek justice in the court, so they began to play black hands outside the court.

The two sides began to expose each other's shortcomings and impeach each other's officials.

The first person to fall under the battle between the two sides was Liu Ping.

Liu Ping was the backbone of the party that asked Zhao Zhen to recall the Wei Palace.

Naturally, he was regarded by Gao Chu Gong and others as a person who was in the line of Wei Wangfu.

As a result, Gao Chu Gong and others concentrated all their firepower, framed them, and laid down black hands.

Liu Ping was finally charged with 12 counts, deposed from office, and sent to the prison of the Criminal Department, where he waited for the autumn decision next year.

When Liu Ping was sentenced to an autumn decision.

Many people who have been watching the excitement can't sit still.

The first person who couldn't sit still was the Wenchen of the Imperial Historical Tower.

A royal historian was impeached by the martial arts, so what is it?

The imperial historians began to concentrate their firepower to find fault with the martial artists.

The soldier Wailang, who was attached to the Shi family, fell in an instant.

The civil and military struggles are becoming more and more fierce and fierce.

One by one, the officials were dismissed and sentenced to autumn execution.

Just one month.

More than 20 Beijing officials were dismissed.

Wang Zeng and Lu Yijian reconciled from it many times, but it did not have any effect.

The two discussed it for a while.

Wang had found Kou Ji.

When Wang Zeng went to the Kou Mansion Courtyard, Kou Ji was eating mutton shabu with Xiang Yan.

Mutton shabu in clear broth.

Freshly slaughtered mutton, soaked in clear soup and sticked with some sauce, the taste is very beautiful.

Even if it's a non-stick sauce, it's delicious.

After Kou Ji saw Wang Zeng, without waiting for Wang Zeng to speak, he pulled Wang Zeng to sit down and ate a meal of mutton shabu together.

After you have eaten and drunk.

Xiang Yan took the maids, cleaned up the leftovers, and returned to the backyard.

Kou Ji and Wang Zeng went to the hall of the Kou Mansion Courtyard together.

The two of them sat down.

After the maid sent the fragrant tea and tasted it.

Wang Zeng said with a look of resentment, "Aren't you sick?" Or is it the kind of serious illness that can't be recovered in three or two years? The old man looks at your ruddy face and deep voice, don't you look sick? ”

Kou Ji pouted and said, "You're not a doctor, how do you know if I'm sick?" ”

Wang Zeng glanced at Kou Ji and said disdainfully: "You don't know what a scholar is." ”

Kou Ji looked at Wang Zeng strangely.

Wang Zeng snorted coldly: "The previous scholars are not like the current scholars. Today's scholars can be called readers if they can read the Five Classics. In the past, readers not only had to know the Five Classics, astronomy and geography, but also had to study. Martial arts, driving, horseback riding, etc., all have to be a little more dabbled.

Scholars from poor families still have to learn some medical skills.

Because in the eyes of the people, a scholar is a smart person, and a smart person should know everything.

Therefore, when many people are sick and can't find a doctor for a while, they will find a scholar first.

The old man is not talented, and he has read a few medical books in his spare time, so he can see if you are sick or not. ”

Kou Ji looked at Wang Zeng in astonishment.

Wang Zeng snorted: "Now that the Manchu Dynasty is civil and military, there is a lot of trouble, you and the official family are pretending to be sick at the same time, for what?" ”
