In the east of Taicheng, Qingxi, most of the two sides of the river are the residences of dignitaries and nobles, and most of the east side are the residences and garden villas of dignitaries and royal families, and the mansion of Duzhi Shangshu Kong Fan is located in the middle.

A horse-drawn carriage, surrounded by guards, drove up the Qingxi Bridge and was about to enter the east bank of Qingxi.

Kong Fan, who had just come out of the palace, closed his eyes in the car to recuperate, and just now a tea ceremony performance he carefully planned was a great success.

The crime of fornicating with the enemy country to sell forbidden goods, if you change it to an ordinary courtier, you are afraid that you will be put in prison immediately and wait for it to be released, but Kong Fan escaped.

Have I ever fornicated with an enemy country? Yes!

Have I ever made a deal with an enemy country? Yes!

But so what?

Although there was no danger, Kong Fan didn't care too much, he had already thought about it before taking this step, so even if it was dangerous for a few years, he would never worry about being cut off by the emperor.

The greater the risk, the greater the return, Kong Fan now deeply understands the meaning of this sentence.

Zhou and Chen are hostile, as a high-ranking official of Chen, but he does business privately with Zhou, no matter how tightly this kind of thing is covered, it is impossible to hide it from everyone, sooner or later there will be a day when he will be impeached, and now he has been impeached, and then he has spent it safely.

What's the key?

It's useless to have any court laws and disciplines, it's all in the thoughts of the officials!

I can make the officials happy, so even if you impeach a hundred times, it's useless!

Thinking of this, Kong Fan sneered proudly, those few petty officials who didn't know what to do, it was said that they should give some profound lessons in order to kill the sharp spirit of the mastermind behind the scenes, but he was really in a good mood, so after thinking about it, he gave up.

It is important to get rich, how can you have time to shoot flies, just drive them away.

Thinking of making a fortune, Kong Fan was in a much better mood, since he did business with the one from Zhou Guo, he only needed to sit in Jiankang City, and the money would roll in, and he had not accepted small bribes much in recent years.

Because just by doing business with that side, it is enough to maintain daily expenses and have a surplus, Kong Fan is not short of money, so he is too lazy to see those petty officials who come to the door to kowtow.

So the only thing he wants to guarantee is his status beside the official family, as long as the saint is not declining, no matter how angry others are, they can't treat themselves as such.

Kong Guifei, who is favored by the official family, is from a humble background, although she is surnamed Kong, she has no blood relationship with Kong Fan at all, and she is not an ancestor at all, but Kong Fan still worships Kong Guifei as a brother and sister, just to help each other.

In the harem of Chen Guo, the most favored by the official family is the concubine Zhang Lihua, followed by Gong and Kong Ergui, Kong Fan wants to tie up Zhang Lihua, but there are too many competitors, so he retreats to the second best and ties up with Kong Guifei.

With Kong Guifei in the palace helping to blow the pillow wind and being the eyes and ears, Kong Fan flattered Uncle Chen like a tiger, and he was not afraid of someone saying bad things in front of the official, and he also helped Kong Guifei's relatives get many benefits outside the palace, which can be described as "mutual benefit".

The only drawback at that time was that there was not enough money, and later Kong Fan and Huangzhou, Jiangbei were on the line, and there was no shortage of money, so he held back his efforts to curry favor with the official family every day to ensure his own glory and wealth.

"Don't talk about anything else for the time being, loose tea, tea making, and tea art, King Xiyang is really a wonderful person."

Just as he was talking to himself, the carriage suddenly slowed down, and before Kong Fan could ask, the guard outside the car approached the window and whispered, "Lord Lang, it's the car of the King of Xiyang who is coming." ”

Kong Fan was shocked when he heard this, shook his head with a smile after a few breaths, and ordered the convoy to give way, although he was a favorite minister of the Son of Heaven, he had to give the clan vassal king some face, otherwise he would go to the official family, and he would be punished for drinking again.

There is a Xiyang king Yuwenwen in the Zhou Guozong family, and there is also a Xiyang king in the Chen Guozong family, who is the twenty-third brother Chen Shumu who is today's son, although they are both the kings of Xiyang County, but in Kong Fan's opinion, they are different from cloud and mud.

After so many years, there is finally a decent Xiyang King.

Kong Fan is familiar with the classics and knows that there are many Xiyang (county) kings in history, and the original king of Xiyang is the clan of the Jin Dynasty, Ma Yi of the Xiyang County Company, and later ascended to the throne of Xiyang.

Later, Liu Song, Xiao Qi, Xiao Liang and now Chen Guo all had Xiyang kings, and for hundreds of years, none of these Xiyang kings could do anything great except for their noble status.

The world has changed, and Xiyang County, which was originally located at the northern foot of Dabie Mountain, has gradually moved south to the Yangtze River, which is now Xiyang County of Huangzhou, and now the Xiyang King of Zhou is much more vigorous than the Xiyang Kings of the previous dynasties.

As the "partner" of Xiyang Wang Yuwenwen, Kong Fan is also the protector of Yuwenwen's secret industry in Jiankang, as for what the people Yuwenwen planted in Jiankang City are doing, he never asks, nor does he send anyone to spy on it.

The Sui State is about to end, and the intermittent news has also reached Jiankang, what Kong Fan cares about the most is not when the Zhou army will destroy the Sui State that retreated to Shu, but the fate of Zheng Yi, the Duke of Peiguo.

As an accomplice to Yang Jian's usurpation of power and usurpation, Zheng Yi actually retreated, according to the news found last month, among the new batch of Yang Shun Sui ministers cut by the Zhou court, there was still no Zheng Yi.

Although it was idle, Xiang Shang's head was still fine, which made Kong Fan quite moved.

He said in front of the official family that Chen Jiangshan was impregnable, and some popular changes were just troubles for the people, but he didn't believe this kind of thing himself, the situation in Chen Guo was getting worse and worse, and it was time to arrange a retreat.

The Chen family's rivers and mountains, the one on the throne is not in a hurry, he is in a hurry, and it is true that he hugged the big tree of Xiyang Wang Yuwenwen as soon as possible.

Yuwen Wen can protect Zheng Yi, the criminal minister of the country, in case the northern army invades Jiankang and the jade is burned, wouldn't it be easy to protect him!

Kong Fan is not the only minister of Chen who deals with Yuwenwen in private, of course, he is responsible for specific affairs through the shopkeeper of the property under his name, but Kong Fan ponders that the other few people are afraid that they all have this kind of mind, so...

For hundreds of years, the northern army has never conquered Jiankang, maybe the situation of the confrontation between the north and the south will continue to be maintained, if the situation is like this, of course it is best, but he is not afraid of ten thousand, he is afraid of what happens, so he feels that Yuwenwen's side must maintain good relations.

Drought and flood to ensure harvest, this is Kong Fan's plan.

Just when Kong Fan was constantly calculating the gains and losses, the carriage had already driven into Qingxi East Road, and stopped at the main gate of Confucius Mansion a moment later.

As soon as he entered the front yard, before Kong Fan had time to change his clothes, the housekeeper greeted him, and after whispering a few words, Kong Fan couldn't care about being tired and turned into a small courtyard in the corner of the mansion.

A young man had been waiting for a long time, and when he saw him come in, he got up and saluted but did not speak, but only handed a piece of jade pendant to Kong Fan.

Kong Fan, who was arrogant on his outer toes, took a closer look at the jade pendant, and said kindly: "Thousands of miles to Jiankang, Xiaolang has worked hard, how is your master?" ”

"There is Lao Kong Shangshu worried, and my lord is fine."

Zhang Yu took out a letter from his arms and presented it with both hands: "The secret letter is here, please show it according to the old rules, what Lang said is on it." ”
