Chapter 494: Return to the city with the caravan
Thinking of this, she sighed, Miao Xiangyuan had a small amount of food on weekdays, and she put down the dishes and chopsticks on a full stomach without eating a few bites, Wang Zhengdao said, "Why don't you eat Madame, is it unappetizing, I am going to do what I want to eat?"
"Don't bother," Miao Xiangyuan sighed, "The little girl is also married, and it takes a lot of trouble to see people like you."
The parents' hearts are both a little clear, Wang Zheng sighed, "The little girl has a stubborn temper, and since she was a child, she has been worried about whether she can have a good husband when she grows up, and she is worried about whether her husband's family will really treat her well when she gets married."
Miao Xiangyuan also felt the same and sighed with Wang Zheng as if he were a confidant, Ge Yuquan looked at the two of them and looked funny, "Oh, what are you doing here, as the saying goes, children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, don't worry about your children and grandchildren"
Miao Xiangyuan said, "If she is a man, I don't worry, but if she is a woman, she is afraid of being wronged."
Wang Zheng echoed "yes, yes"
Ge Yuquan couldn't do anything about the two of them, so he thought about diverting the topic and asked Wang Zheng, "Didn't you want to go out before?" Don't let us delay you."
As soon as he thought of what he wanted to do, Wang Zheng's first reaction was eager, but the time had been delayed, Wang Zheng said, "Forget it, don't get in the way, just do it tomorrow"
"Those who are confidants die" Qin Chong suddenly said for no reason, saying this because he saw Shen Jiancheng looking preoccupied.
Shen Jiancheng stared at the clear sky in the courtyard with his hand, and when he heard Qin Chong's voice, he smiled and said, "Taiwei is here."
Qin Chong stepped forward and smiled, "The prince really understands what this means."
The person who is a confidant dies, this comes from Zhao Ceyi, the Warring States Policy, this is known to the world, how can Shen Jiancheng not understand the meaning of the words, but Qin Chong mentioned it like this, it seems that these words have a little-known meaning, Shen Jiancheng asked with a straight face, "Is there a deeper meaning to this?" ”
Qin Chong was studying Shen Jiancheng, "The prince said, why is one person willing to die for another?" ”
Shen Jiancheng didn't think of what the deeper meaning was, so he could only reply according to his own understanding, "Naturally, it is difficult to find a confidant, and a confidant lies in the heart, and it is rare to have another person who can understand his ambition."
Qin Chong looked disrespectful and asked, "So, does the prince want to be the one who dies or the one who lives?" ”
These words were really deafening, and Shen Jiancheng had to re-weigh Qin Chong's meaning, "What does the Taiwei want to say?" ”
Qin Zhong said solemnly, "The prince is a king, not a scholar, a scholar can regard the king as a confidant, and the king cannot treat a scholar as a confidant."
Shen Jiancheng looked up to the sky and sighed: "Taiwei's words are really ugly."
In fact, in the literal sense, the words are not too ugly, but Shen Jiancheng heard what Qin Chong really wanted to say, of course Qin Chong knew that this was not very good, "This is the truth, what kind of person dies for a confidant, this sound is good, in fact, it is nothing more than mutual use, one person is willing to die for another person, then the living person must have the ability to fulfill the wish of the dead person, otherwise there is no need to die, this is not mutual use of what is"
yes,
How can one person die for another person for no reason?
Qin Zhong definitely wouldn't say this for no reason, Shen Jiancheng smiled helplessly and said, "Taiwei has something to say."
Qin Zhong said solemnly: "The prince is preoccupied, is it for Gong Jiang's business?" ”
If not, it would be against his will, Shen Jiancheng just dared to think now, but he didn't dare to mention it, "Jiang Gong can seal the mouth of this king, but he can't seal the heart of this king, and he can't think about it?" ”
Qin Chongdao, "What the prince lacks is experience and calculation, and the procrastination in the mouth of the old minister, the prince only thinks it is procrastination"
Shen Jiancheng raised his eyes to look at people, "Is there anything else?" ”
Qin Chong said, "Yes, doesn't the prince know what he is holding in his hand?" ”
Shen Jiancheng raised his palm, opened his palm, and shook his fist again, laughing at himself and laughing: "Is there something in this king's hand?" If there is nothing more than an empty title"
Qin Chongzhan smiled and said, "No, the prince is holding the fate of Jiang Gong in his hands."
Shen Jiancheng couldn't comprehend the meaning of these words for a while, and asked with a smile, "Really?" If this king holds the fate of Jiang Gong, why is he so coerced? ”
"Is it a threat?" Qin Chong smiled and said, "What if it's not coercion?" ”
"Not blackmail?" Shen Jiancheng looked a little unclear, and started to take two steps closer to Qin Chong and asked, "It's not to coerce you, what is that?" ”
Qin Zhong seemed to be instructing Shen Jiancheng that "everything in this world can be used, even if some things are not good for you"
Although Shen Jiancheng didn't expect to understand, he was already a little interested, "Oh? How to use it? ”
Qin Zhongxin said, "The prince's eyes are fascinated in the game, if you can take a step out and see, it will be easier to see what you are holding in your hand, yes, Jiang Gong is using the queen to threaten the prince to seal his mouth, on the surface, the prince can only compromise, because the prince is afraid that the queen will become the target of the public, and it is no wonder that the prince is preoccupied with both."
Shen Jiancheng said: "Does the captain have a solution to this matter? ”
Qin Chong said with a smile, "Confronting Jiang Gong head-on will bring down you and implicate the queen, in fact, the solution is already in the hands of the prince, but I just didn't see it."
"Oh?" Shen Jiancheng spread his palms and watched, "Does this king have a solution in his hands?" ”
Qin Zhong smiled and said, "From the positive point of view, it is indeed Jiang Gong who is threatening the crown prince, but in fact, this is our talisman!" ”
"Amulet!" Shen Jiancheng stared at Qin Chong in disbelief, this matter was obviously coerced, how could it become a talisman again, "Tai Wei, is he joking?" ”
Qin Zhong smiled and said, "It's not just the old minister who understands this, Lu Kai also understands it."
"He understands, too?" Shen Jiancheng was asking, "How do you know that he also understands?" ”
Qin Chong smiled slowly and asked, "I heard that the prince met him in the Forbidden Military Division"
There was nothing to hide about this, and Shen Jiancheng simply replied "yes"
Qin Chong asked, "Then have you talked about Jiang Gong?"
Shen Jiancheng nodded, "I said, he said it was a family matter"
Qin Zhong smiled with satisfaction, "Isn't this it, Jiang Gong and all the scholars behind him are the prince's talisman, before he was still the prince, this matter was a threat, if the prince became the king, it would be a talisman"
Shen Jiancheng really didn't think about some things thoroughly, and he wasn't as shrewd as Lu Kai, so he could only ask directly, "What do you say?" ”
Qin Chong raised his head and said, "Prince, just imagine, how influential the scholars behind Jiang Gong are, and now they have the most unfavorable evidence in their hands, what they have done, the queen knows best, this is the reason why they coerce the prince, if the queen speaks desperately, they will be finished, coercion is from another aspect, there is no confidence to control the prince, so he can only make this decision"
These words entered Shen Jiancheng's ears, like an initiation, his eyes flashed brightly, and he was very happy: "Yes! Why didn't this king expect that what he was holding in his hand was the most unfavorable evidence for them, thank you Taiwei for mentioning it"
Shen Jiancheng complained, "Taiwei and Lu Kai are really, why didn't they say it earlier?"
Qin Chong sighed and said, "I believe that Lu Kai's mind is the same as that of the old minister, and there are some things that the prince needs to understand by himself, but I see that the prince is very preoccupied. ”
Shen Jiancheng figured out this matter and said with a smile, "I understand, Taiwei, don't worry, this king will not act recklessly in this matter."
Things, one after another, Zhang Zhongping is a big headache, no matter what, he must go back to the city, after coming out of Nanqing Village, he has not dared to walk on the road with a big grin, he is along the forest path to the east gate, there are many people on the road, if there are other circumstances, he has already stopped the carriage and hitchhiked into the city, but he can't do it now, if someone really sets up an ambush, it will hurt the people who carry him.
Follow the forest to the official road, there is no forest hiding here near the city gate, you can only go to the avenue to enter the city, there are not only people passing by on the avenue, there are also some people selling melons, such as selling melons in the city, the city pawn will collect tips, some people who do not want to enter the city will be sold out in the city, of course, the business is certainly not as good as the city, see a melon stall in the flat to buy melons to quench their thirst.
After eating a slice of melon, he saw a caravan coming behind him, and the caravan group of dozens of people also looked mighty, Zhang Zhongping's eyes rolled and he had an idea, and when most of the caravan team passed, people walked towards the end of the team.
At the end, there were two people walking with a caravan behind, Zhang Zhongping went up to talk and said with a smile: "Where did your caravan come from?" ”
The city gate is not afraid that Zhang Zhongping is a bandit to take stock, and one person said, "We are coming from Yichang"
"Yichang!" Zhang Zhongping looked surprised and said, "I've heard of this place, and it takes half a month to come here."
The man said, "No, but it's just a sports car, and it's okay if you get used to it."
Zhang Zhongping chatted without a word, and followed the caravan into the city, but on the way he saw a few people pretending to rest outside the city, but their eyes couldn't help but look at the pedestrians.
