Seeing that Zheng Juzhong's face became ugly, Liu Zhenglong was secretly proud, and he said unhurriedly: "Saiong knows whether it is a blessing if he loses his horse, and Saiong knows whether it is a disaster if he loses his horse." What is Zhao Chen's fate, it seems that it has little to do with Lord Zheng. Because Concubine Zheng Guifei doesn't seem to have been pregnant, the mother factor is expensive, the law of the harem that has remained unchanged for thousands of years, Lord Zheng will not know it. ”

"What do you want to say, these big rebellious words, spread out, aren't you afraid of losing your head?" Zheng Juzhong's face became more and more ugly, and he had the urge to smash Liu Zhenglong with a teacup. has always been a gentle gentleman in the officialdom, how could such a bully pop up, it is simply unreasonable to stir up.

Liu Zhenglong is really thick-skinned, this guy poured himself tea, he drank it and said unhurriedly: "I will tell you now why the imperial grandson was demoted, not just because someone sued him, this is not fundamental, but a violation of the official family's fear." You must know that the official family is prosperous in the Spring and Autumn Period, and they attach great importance to the imperial power, and they will never allow the crown prince to trespass. Otherwise, how could the imperial grandson be jealous of the official family if he was still a child? If it weren't for something on the prince's side that caused the jealousy of the official family, then Zhao Kai, the king of Yun, would not have been pushed to the forefront, you must know that this kind of thing is extremely rare in our dynasty. Don't forget, the official family will stay in power for many years, and things in the court have always been one thing and the other is good, if the prince's side has been jealous of the official family, then what will happen later, I don't think Lord Zheng can't guess. ”

These words, in fact, Zheng Juzhong has thought about them for a long time, but he didn't study them in depth, and today Liu Zhenglong picked up this topic, and he had to pay attention to it. The young man in front of him is a protégé of the Son of Heaven, is he talking about these words today on behalf of the official family, or on behalf of himself?

If it represents the official family, it is a very dangerous signal, even if it represents Liu Zhenglong himself, if this guy keeps mentioning a similar tone in front of the official family, what kind of consequences will it be.

Perhaps, the position of the prince will not be shaken, but his position will be embarrassing, after all, his daughter Zheng Guanyin is just a side concubine, and she is also the kind of side concubine who has not been conceived. Once suppressed due to the jealousy of the official family, the first one to be thrown out must be Zheng Juzhong, there is no doubt about it.

The prince's future is very important, but there is a premise for all this, that is, the Zheng family must be in a high position, otherwise, it will really be glorious and rich to me. Zheng Juzhong attaches more importance to his daughter's status and his own position, followed by the prince's future.

Of course, if Zheng Guanyin is the crown princess, it means something else. Zheng Juzhong finally calmed down, and he shouted: "Come on, serve tea to Lord Liu." ”

Serving tea is an attitude, at least it shows that Zheng Juzhong is willing to listen to Liu Zhenglong continue, he said coldly: "You, the protégé of the Son of Heaven, are you the one who is the king of Yun, and when you come to the official mansion, are you just talking about these brainless words?" ”

"Lord Zheng, you are wrong, Xia Guan is a protégé of the Son of Heaven and a member of the official family, you are clear about this." Liu Zhenglong showed a treacherous smile on his face, and this guy said with a smile: "The hidden dragon is in the abyss, sometimes the prince is dormant, and it is safer than floating on the water." Zhao Chen is not a lucky star for Concubine Zheng and Lord Zheng. The two dragons play with pearls, who is in front of and who is behind, who wins and who loses, who can tell clearly? Without Concubine Zheng giving birth to Lin'er, then Zhao Chen's existence would be superfluous. Now, for Lord Zheng, the attitude of the official family is the most important, isn't it? ”

seems to be a few simple sentences, but the interpretation is extremely complicated, no one can say the rights and wrongs clearly, but Zheng Juzhong knows what Liu Zhenglong wants to express.

Now that the official family is at its peak in the Spring and Autumn Period, who can have the last laugh between the prince and the king of Yun is not something that the people below can figure out at all, in a word, the official family is dictatorial, once the people below figure it out in vain, there is a matter of reverse dragon scales, it will be an absolutely devastating blow.

Zheng Juzhong will definitely stand on the side of the prince because of his daughter, but now he should persuade the prince to lie dormant, instead of instigating the prince to anger the official family. Now the prince needs to be dormant, and his daughter Zheng Guanyin needs to give birth to Lin'er, and the rest is not a problem.

Seeing that it was said that Zheng Juzhong's heart was in the middle, Liu Zhenglong was not in a hurry, and this guy said unhurriedly: "Xiaguan's first involvement in officialdom is only a mere six grades, and I hope that Lord Zheng will help him more in the future." Xia Guan has no ability, but his eyes are a little poisonous and he is ruthless. Zhu Mian is a bit of a pity, who made him reverse the dragon scales? The subordinate is just ordered to carry it out! ”

mentioned Zhu Mian, it was a threat, Liu Zhenglong believed that Zheng Juzhong was a smart person, and he would definitely be able to understand what he meant, and of course he knew how to choose.

"Lord Liu rescued his niece Yun Yan for the first time, and he can be regarded as the benefactor of our Zheng family. I don't know if you have contacted Yun Yan again, but that girl will never forget you. At this time, Zheng Juzhong threw out Zheng Yunyan, although he didn't say it directly, but he had already expressed his attitude.

"Lord Zheng's tea is good, and the lower officials will come to bother again when they are free."

Liu Zhenglong got up and retired, he believed that Zheng Juzhong was a smart person, and he would definitely throw an olive branch to himself, and he couldn't run away from this vote in the political hall.

It is obviously not an easy thing to deal with Zheng Juzhong, at least Liu Zhenglong thinks so, but the most difficult thing for him is still to come, that is, how to convince the old fox Cai Jing, you must know that the cunning of this old thief who can go up and down in phase is not comparable to Zheng Juzhong and his ilk.

Before meeting Cai Jing, Liu Zhenglong had done his homework, although this old fox was scheming, but there was a fatal problem, that is, his eldest son Cai You, you must know that the father and son are mortal enemies in the court, whether it is right or wrong, as long as it is the other party's point of view, then it will definitely be put forward to oppose it, and it is purely for the sake of opposing it.

Everyone saw the opposite of Cai Jing and Cai You, the father and son of the rival family, but Liu Zhenglong, a traverser, saw the hidden content behind the antagonism, which people of the same era could not see.

Cai Jing welcomed Liu Zhenglong's arrival, and deliberately invited this guy to the VIP room, and after the guests were seated, he directly asked the maid to serve tea.

Politeness, behind this hypocritical politeness is indifference, Liu Zhenglong is very clear about this, he doesn't mind this, but seems more humble.

"Old lady, I heard that you are going to quit the prime minister recently, I don't know if you really decided to let go?"

It's really not shocking, Liu Zhenglong's words completely poured Cai Jinglei down, and the old fox sat stupidly on the Taishi chair, not knowing what to say for a while.

Yes, a few days ago, the official family had a similar hint, and Cai Jing didn't care much about it at the time, but such a secret thing came out of the mouth of this young man, which still shocked the old thief.

Cai Jing, who is already old and decrepit, still doesn't want to let go of power, although the official family has this meaning, but it is impossible to talk about such a hidden thing to the outside world, even if Liu Zhenglong is a protégé of the Son of Heaven, he should not know about this matter, but how did this young man know?

Seeing that the old fox was knocked down by thunder, Liu Zhenglong was not in a hurry, this guy tasted tea slowly and leisurely, and constantly praised this pot of phoenix tea for its pleasant fragrance.

You must know that in the Great Song Dynasty, the top is dragon tea, followed by phoenix tea, even if it is noble as Taishi Cai Jing, you can only make it possible for distinguished guests to enter the door to drink dragon tea, and a six-grade petty official like Liu Zhenglong can drink phoenix tea, which is already enough to give face.

Cai Jing is old after all, and his reaction is still a little slow, but the old fox still quickly sorted out his thoughts, and he said unhurriedly: "Since you like to drink phoenix tea, then take ten catties back when you leave." ”

"Master Xie." Liu Zhenglong didn't go to the road at all, this guy made up his mind, he didn't see the rabbit and didn't scatter the eagle, I believe that the old fox Cai Jing who was thundered down no matter how scheming he was, he couldn't do it without moving, and he would definitely take the initiative to show goodwill.

Seeing that the young man opposite didn't appreciate it, Cai Jing knew that it was not okay not to give the other party some benefits, so he said: "Regarding your appointment, this Taishi will not set restrictions here, I don't know if you are satisfied with this." ”

"Xia Guan is here for this, of course he is satisfied." The goal was achieved, and there was no need for Liu Zhenglong to hide it, he lowered his voice and said: "Of course, the problem lies with the eldest son of the old lady's family, but this matter is not without room for maneuver, it depends on how the old lady operates." ”

"Your favor is too good for you. You will be satisfied, but you don't know how to get the old man through? ”

Taishi Cai Jing guessed it, it is impossible for the official family to mention this matter to anyone, it seems that the eldest son Cai You is a ghost, if this level can't be passed, it is only a matter of time before the prime minister is dismissed.

"I took the initiative to resign, but I mentioned the reason because the father and son were officials in the same dynasty, and I didn't want to give the outside world a feeling of love for power, but I wanted to emphasize that I had reached the realm of worrying about the people at the height of the temple and worrying about the king at the distance of the rivers and lakes. Of course, on the issue of the crown prince, you still have to ask for guilt in front of the official family, you must know that the crown prince Zhao Chen is still caused by you. In the dispute between the prince and the king of Yun, you'd better not stand in line, after all, the official family is prosperous in the Spring and Autumn Period, and you won't survive that day. ”

Liu Zhenglong's words are very vicious, implying that Cai Jing's life will not last long, but such a hint is not a bad thing for Cai Jing, and indeed if he is attacked by his eldest son on that issue, it is only on this issue.

"The door of the Taishi Mansion is open for you at any time, and the old man wants to make a New Year's friendship with you very much." At this moment, the old fox Cai Jing was relieved, no one could escape birth, old age, sickness and death, he was already in his seventies, the official family was in the prime of life, and the eldest son was still very young.
