"What kind of person do you think Zheng Linfeng is?" Tong Guan asked thoughtfully,

Ma Zhi replied without thinking, "When I first met him before, I only thought that this person was a rare talent, but as I got to know him more and more, I couldn't see him more and more clearly. ”

Tong Guan thought about it, and his heart suddenly moved, "Could it be ...... Li Qingzhao, that girl? ”

Ma Zhi nodded, "That's right, but even Li Qingzhao's sister Li Luoling married him together." ”

Tong Guan was stunned again, "Li Qingzhao, that old girl, knows that she is arrogant, how could she marry a thief?" Or with her sister, it's really hard to figure out. ”

Ma Zhi also sighed, "Yes, this person is not only mysterious, but also seems to be very good at creating miracles, again and again, it seems that it is a very common thing for him to make the impossible possible." ”

Tong Guan pondered for a moment and nodded slightly, "Lianghei, you go and send him a letter and ask him if he is willing to take refuge in the old man!" ”

Ma Zhi was taken aback, "What does Taishi mean ......?" ”

"Tell him that as long as he is willing to hand over half of the Zeng family's wealth and be loyal to the old man, the old man will ask the emperor to recruit them, and with the protection of the old man, even Cai Jing will not dare to touch him again!" Tong Guan said confidently.

"Yes!" Ma Zhi was overjoyed when he heard this, he admired Zheng Fei very much, and he had already had the idea of whitewashing him, "I'll write it now...... No, I'll go to Yangsan in person! Judging from this person's concern about the current situation and the sense of justice he revealed, he must also have the idea of serving the imperial court, but he had to fall into the grass because of Cai Jing's frame-up, and now with the protection of the Taishi, he will not shirk! ”

Tong Guan nodded, "If you go, go quickly, and if you go, you have to make a choice quickly, if the old man is not mistaken, Liangshan is so big this time, the county under the mountain must be difficult to sleep, presumably the concert to ask the imperial court to send troops to encircle and suppress the Liangshan thieves is on the way, the old man can suppress these concerts for him for a few days, but it will not be too long, so there is not much time left for him to make a choice!" ”

Ma Zhi hurriedly said, "Yes! Go in the next one! ”

After saying that, Ma Zhi bowed to Tong Guan and hurried out of the house.

Tong Guan looked at Ma Zhi's hurried back, his eyes flickering.

At this moment, I heard a respectful voice beside me, "Dad." ”

Tong Guan looked back in response, and his face was also full of loving smiles, "Child, you are here." ”

I saw that it was a teenager who walked out of the side room, this person was dressed in green clothes, and his appearance was also very handsome, but he was a standard rich boy, he was none other than Tong Guan's son, to be precise, it should be Tong Guan's righteous son.

Tong Guan young body, no offspring, although long after entering the palace soared, but has always been this lifelong regret, a few years ago when Tong Guan in the northwest, one of his generals was killed, and soon after that man's wife also died, leaving only an only son to wander the streets begging for food.

Tong Guan heard about this and moved his heart of compassion, so he found the child, and saw that the child was very handsome, and there was a little resemblance between his eyebrows, Tong Guan moved his mind to accept him as a righteous son, and the appearance of this son not only made up for a big regret in Tong Guan's life, but also won a reputation for caring for his subordinates in the army, so that many generals were deeply moved, thinking that Tong Guan was a boss worth working for, which virtually improved Tong Guan's prestige. Tong Guan didn't expect that his move would bring many unexpected benefits, so he loved this son even more, changed his name to Tong Shi Min, and regarded it as his own.

Tong Shi Min respectfully bowed to Tong Guan, "Dad, the children heard your words in the house just now, and the children have something unclear and want to ask their father." ”

Tong Guan nodded and smiled, "Kid ask." ”

"Cai Jinggui is the leader, then Zheng Linfeng is just a thief, why does Daddy take the risk of offending Cai Jing to protect him?" Tong Shimin looked puzzled,

Tong Guan smiled lightly when he heard this, his eyes were full of satisfaction, Tong Shi Min was able to please Tong Guan not only because he was handsome and had a few similar appearances with Tong Guan, perhaps because of the hardships of wandering on the streets in his early years, he cherished the life in front of him very much, he was particularly diligent and studious, and he asked if he didn't understand, and he was also quite appreciated by Tong Guan, and Tong Guan also had the heart to train him to be his real successor, so he often told him about the things in the court, discussed with him, and exercised his mind and knowledge.

"Do you remember what your father told you, who did Cai Jing rely on last time he was reinstated as prime minister?" Tong Guan smiled and asked,

Tong Shi Min didn't think about it and said, "Of course I remember, my father went to Hangzhou to play calligraphy and painting for the Holy Lord in the name of the Inner Court Minister, and got acquainted with Cai Jing, who was relegated there, Cai Jing was down several times, and the Manchu Dynasty civil and military almost ignored him, lest he be contaminated, but only his father did not dislike him, not only gave him advice, but also spared no effort to give gifts to the emperor's trusted concubines, Taoist priests, and ministers for him, and helped him get through the joints, which made the emperor decide to reactivate Cai Jing. The events since then have also proved my father's foresight, that Cai Jing is really a character, and less than a year after returning to Beijing, he jumped three levels and sat in the position of prime minister. Therefore, Cai Jing can have today, the first thing to thank is Daddy ......, Daddy means that just like you took a fancy to Cai Jing at the beginning, you also think that Zheng Linfeng is a rare talent? ”

Tong Guan smiled noncommittally, "This is only one aspect, if what Zhao Liangsi said is all true, this Zheng Linfeng is indeed a talent, the old man has been in the officialdom for decades, he is used to seeing current affairs, and he has a lot of experience in knowing people and looking at people." Children, you have to remember, don't underestimate talents, and don't underestimate any talent, take Daddy as an example, a few decades ago, when Daddy had to enter the palace in order to support himself and his family, who would have thought that the ordinary little eunuch would become like this old man? The old man is old, and he will not be able to shelter you for the rest of his life, and there are many factional relationships between the DPRK and China, and even the Northwest Army controlled by the old man cannot guarantee that everyone is loyal to the old man, and the old man has promoted many young generals in recent years and given them favors, which is preparing for you. ”

Tong Shimin listened to Tong Guan's sincere words, looked at the old man who saved himself and gave him everything selflessly, his heart was moved, and the corners of his eyes were a little damp, so he hurriedly raised his sleeve and wiped it, "Thank you daddy, child, daddy is as blessed as the East China Sea, and he will definitely live to be a hundred years old...... Oh no, it's over a hundred years old. ”

Tong Guan raised his head and laughed a few times, and continued, "Of course, the old man's value for Zheng Linfeng is only one aspect, and more importantly, Daddy wants to use this Zheng Linfeng to give Cai Jing a wake-up call." ”

Tong Shi Min was stunned and said, "Remind him ......?" ”

Tong Guan smiled mysteriously, "Child, do you know Zhao Kai?" ”
