In King Gong's mind, a thought suddenly came to mind: Is the word "damn" Guan Zhuofan spreading rumors to provoke the relationship between me and my nephew the emperor?

But he quickly dispelled that suspicion - what was it? Guan Zhuofan will never make this fake!

In the ups and downs of his heart, King Gong calmed his feelings and said slowly: "Thunder and rain are nothing more than heaven's grace, but-"

He sneered heavily and said, "I signed the Treaty of Beijing, the Treaty of Tianjin—"

He exhaled a long breath and said, "It's not my head or the end—but it's all on my head!" I take it all in, and it's no big deal! ”

said that it was "no big deal", but the tone was resentful and indignant, overflowing with words.

"I know that when the first emperor was in Japan, he was quite puzzled by the "Treaty of Tianjin", otherwise, where did the "Beijing Treaty" come from? Now—"

The second half of the sentence was forcibly swallowed into his stomach, his face was pale, he was silent for a moment, and he sighed long: "Alas-"

The meaning of King Gong's two sentences is that the "Treaty of Tianjin" was signed, but the imperial court was unwilling to fulfill the treaty, which eventually led to another large-scale internal invasion by Britain and France.

Guan Zhuofan could also hear the half of the sentence he swallowed into his stomach: The complaints he made back then, and the son of his son, now he has turned over the old accounts!

"If you knew today, why bother in the first place?" Guan Zhuofan said, "-- I mean, I knew that today we would have to sign the 'Beijing Treaty,' which will be even more disadvantaged. Why did you overturn the Treaty of Tientsin in the first place? Strength is not as good as people. You should bear the burden of humiliation. Lie down and taste the gall, waiting for the day of swallowing Wu! Otherwise, you can only seek glory and disgrace! ”

King Gong slapped his thigh: "Yixuan, that's what you said!" Whether it is the "Tianjin Treaty" or the "Beijing Treaty", the people in the bureau are really painstaking! I don't understand, I changed the group of high-profile people to 'enter the game'. Can these two treaties not be signed? Or would it be better to sign on terms? ”

After a pause, his tone became more and more intense: "Okay, standing outside and watching the excitement, everyone is awe-inspiring; The people who really work, one counts as one, all of them have become 'traitors', and all of them have become 'traitors'!

"Scholars mislead the country, often so." Guan Zhuofan sighed and smiled to himself. "Clear, clear. How much is it worth a pound? ”

King Gong also sighed: "Qing Yi - there is weight, it's just-"

He was considering the appropriate wording, and Guan Zhuofan said it for him: "It's just that it's obviously a pound of scrap iron, but he wants to sell it for a pound of gold!" ”

King Gong's eyes lit up: "Yixuan, your metaphor has a taste!" That's it! ”

Guan Zhuofan said solemnly: "Therefore, what politicians have to do is to clearly mark the price, scrap iron must be marked with the price of scrap iron, and gold must be marked with the price of gold, and it must not be reversed!" ”

After a moment of silence, King Gong nodded deeply: "Yixuan, set things right, there is a long way to go!" ”

"With the guidance of the sixth brother, I will do it reluctantly."

King Gong smiled slightly, then withdrew his smile, sighed lightly, and said: "Speaking of Qing Yi, when Ugong Feng was the leader in the past, although the old master was sluggish and untransformed, he was a reasonable person in the end; In the past two years, Ugong Feng has become more and more silent, and the defenders seem to have the intention of gathering around Xu Yinxuan, this person-"

King Gong sneered: "But it's stubborn, there is no reason to talk about it at all!" ”

"Sixth brother, I think that there should be no 'leader' in the 'Qing Discussion' or 'Defender of the Dao'."

King Gong was slightly shocked.

Although there are many people who defend the old way, if there is no leader with sufficient appeal, they will not be able to form a joint force and oppose the new policy and foreign affairs, which will be greatly reduced.

"Emperor" is a very appealing identity.

"Yixuan, you have seen deeply!"

At this point, the two have reached a consensus: whether it is public or private, they must "go to Xu".

King Gong pondered for a moment and said, "Yixuan, do you think that Xu Yinxuan sings this in the Hongde Palace, and there is no one in the back...... Lift? ”

Guan Zhuofan frowned slightly and said, "I can't say it either." However, although Ugong Feng is conservative, he is a true Taoist, knowing how to advance and stop, and keeping measure, unlike Xu Yinxuan, who has the knowledge of half a bucket of water, which is just used to decorate the Taoism. ”

King Gong nodded: "Well, 'know the progress and stop, keep the measure', it is indeed the 'comment' of the Ugong Peak, he should not do what the emperor should not do." But—"

After a pause, King Gong said, "Xu Yinxuan is attached to the Wai Gong Peak. ”

Guan Zhuofan understood what King Gong meant: "Yes, the face of the Wo Gong Feng cannot be ignored." ”

In the "little house", there was a brief silence.

After a while, Guan Zhuofan spoke.

"I think, this envoy of Hongde Palace," there was a sly smile on his face, "it is better to ask Xu Yinxuan to resign himself—if he is too thick-skinned and does not leave, it is best to ...... Ugong Feng can wake him up. ”

"Oh?"

King Gong's eyebrows raised slightly, and then he smiled: "Okay, the capable can do anything!" Yixuan, I'm waiting for your good news. ”

"This matter, naturally, I have to ask the sixth brother to preside over - I just run an errand."

"I won't do this with you," King Gong smiled, "I understand what you mean, and when the time comes, if there is a place where I want to 'run errands', just ask." ”

"Then—I'll thank the sixth brother first."

"Alas-" King Gong seemed to be smiling, "Yixuan, this matter, speaking of which, you are also to blame." ”

Guan Zhuofan was slightly stunned: "Please make it clear to the sixth brother." ”

"You are also the 'emperor' - the messenger of the Hongde Palace, if you can Changchuan into the straight, where is the emperor likely to be deceived by the villain? You say, do you blame you for this? ”

It turned out to be this.

"Of course," said King Gong with a smile, "you are indeed too busy! ”

Guan Zhuofan smiled bitterly and said, "Sixth brother's words, I am really ashamed!" originally thought that he had a doppelganger, but in the end, it was just a head and two hands! ”

After a pause, he said: "Actually, even if I Changchuan is straight, I may not be able to really help the Holy Scholar as the Sixth Brother said-the Sixth Brother thinks too highly of me." ”

The meaning of this sentence is deep, and it has about two meanings: first, the current "sacred learning" is not "beneficial"; Second, and more importantly, whoever is the "emperor" is replaced, it's all the same.

The two layers of meaning are put together, which is tantamount to implying that this student is not good at teaching.

"In retrospect," Guan Zhuofan shook his head, "it was too reckless to take on this mission in the first place—it's really beyond my strength!" ”

King Gong looked at Guan Zhuofan deeply, and there was a strange light in his eyes: "It's not easy for you!" ”

After a pause, his tone became cold: "It's not easy for me—it's not easy!" ”
