Chapter 40: Zhao Cheng's worries

A carriage stopped leisurely at the door of the mansion. The servants at the door looked at the people in the carriage and immediately ran to the bottom of the steps, waiting for the carriage to stop. Then one knelt on the ground, and one stood by the carriage. The man sitting in the carriage habitually stretched out his hand, and was held by the man who was standing, and stretched out one foot and stepped on the back of the kneeling man and walked down. The kneeling subordinate endured the not heavy body of the person who got off the car, and only when the person walked into the door of the mansion did he pat the dust on his body and stood up.

"Alas, today's adults seem to be a little different, this is walking, but it is much more majestic." The subordinate who was standing next to him just now said proudly, as if he was the one who walked majestically.

"You don't even know this, my lord has been promoted this time."

"What officer?"

"What's it called... It's commonplace. "It seems that he is not sure either.

"Sikong, what is this for? Why haven't you heard of it before? ”

"This official is very powerful, he is in charge of Zhao Guo's money bag, just like a housekeeper."

"That's not right, the housekeeper can still manage the adult's money bag, it should be said that he is like a big lady."

"Mrs. Return, do you think our family is a woman?"

"I didn't say that. Don't talk nonsense. ”

"Where am I talking nonsense..."

“...”

Of course, Zhao Cheng didn't know that the official position he had just been promoted to successfully provoked a dispute between the two subordinates at the door, and he believed that he might be able to carry out full martial arts after a while. However, Zhao Cheng, who has become the financial manager of Zhao State, now has no heart to manage his two subordinates, but scatters in his own yard.

It's just so sudden, when you're not prepared at all, it falls from the sky. He still remembers that when Zhao Yong decided to make himself the first Sikong in Longtai, Zhao Cheng's whole person fell into confusion. If Zhao Yong said these words at the beginning of his pro-government, he would definitely believe it, but now, it always makes him feel that something is wrong. But what's the problem?

Zhao Cheng is very particular about life, which is also due to his good management, and he also started a business in Zhao Guoguo, which likes to do business. And because of his special status, many people take care of business, so he doesn't have to worry about food and clothing, everything is very high-end. Even the mansion is a unique one.

Zhao Cheng walked through the garden, thinking about his thoughts and looking at the scenery at the same time. Suddenly, I saw a thin figure, holding the corridor, slowly walking forward. Next to him, there was a maid, who seemed to be a little worried about the young man, and wanted to step forward to help him from time to time, but the young man always signaled not to let her come, and still gritted his teeth and insisted on moving forward.

Zhao Cheng put his hands behind his back and watched him slowly stand up, obviously a little powerless, so he quietly walked over and said to the maid: "Lian'er, why did you let Mr. Li walk alone?" ”

Li Dui heard the voice, raised his head, and saw Zhao Cheng standing in front of him, with a serious face, with the dignity of the superior. I don't know why, he was a little jealous, but it instantly turned into awe, tried his best to make himself salute, and said weakly: "It's not that Miss Lian'er's problem, but that the kid feels that his body has gradually healed, so he tries to act independently and no longer cause trouble to adults." ”

"It doesn't matter, since we were able to meet that day, it can be regarded as a fate, besides, young talents are the pillars of the country, and the old man will not die without help."

It turned out that Zhao Cheng came back from hunting in the wild that day, passing by the thatched house, and wanted to take a rest, but he didn't expect to see Li Dui who was dying. He saw that Li Dui looked handsome, not like a traitor, so he fell in love with talent, rescued him, took good care of him, and asked a famous doctor to diagnose and treat him, and soon he was out of danger.

After Li Dui told Zhao Cheng about his life experience, he hoped that Zhao Cheng could help him find Su Qin. However, when Zhao Cheng went to look for Su Qin again, there was no clue. Because his body had not completely improved, Li Dui had to borrow it from Zhao Cheng's mansion while waiting for Su Qin's whereabouts.

"The kid is ashamed, I don't know if the adults are here, if they have the whereabouts of Brother Su." Li Dui and Zhao Cheng sat in the corridor, and the two chatted.

"Don't worry, as long as your brother Su is still alive, as long as he is still in Zhao Kingdom, I believe there will be news. After all, in Zhao State, everyone gave the old man a few thin noodles. Zhao Cheng said.

"By the way, I haven't forgotten to congratulate the boss on taking charge of the secrets, so that he can assist the king and achieve immortal achievements." Li Dui said and was about to salute.

"Slow down, sit down and talk." Zhao Cheng hurriedly grabbed him, let him do a good job in peace, and said with a wry smile: "The so-called assistant to the king, this is my duty, I am the ancestor of the Zhao family, the uncle of the king, and the brother of the first king. After speaking, he shook his head, "But this is not a worldly achievement, but it is not so easy to establish, I only hope to be able to keep the ancestral foundation, and I am already thankful." ”

"My lord, this is modest." Li Dui said, "Although the kid is not a good talent, he still understands a little bit of this truth." Today's monarch is determined to forge ahead and is determined to get rid of the old evils. And I heard that the monarch intends to reform the military system, sweep Zhongshan in the north, and even Sanhu. If this is the case, then the achievements of today's monarchs will be comparable to Jian and Xiang, and become a generation of masters, even if they win the Central Plains, it is unknown. Li Dui said, his eyebrows fluttering. Being able to be born in such an era is actually appropriate for him, because only such troubled times can he show his talent and what he has learned in his heart.

"Is it comparable to Jian Xiang? Perhaps. Zhao Cheng said a little sullenly. Think about it carefully, although this nephew did not succeed to the throne, he was relatively simple and had no scheming, but after he succeeded to the throne, it was like a different person, and the depth of the city made Zhao Cheng feel that he had to be wary when facing him. If it weren't for the fact that there were no clues and no clues he found later, he even thought that this Zhao Yong was a Xibei goods.

Li Dui is a person who is good at observing words and feelings, looking at Zhao Cheng Although he has a lot of power, he is depressed, and he understands that he has unspeakable hardships, so he said cautiously: "The boy is taken care of by the adults, and he has always had the heart to repay the adults. "Anyway, I'm a weak person, so I can't be asked to do anything to kill people and set fires.

Zhao Cheng looked at Li Dui, thinking that since this person was rescued by Lu Yu, it should not be a conspiracy framed by a political enemy, and he must be carried by himself in the future, so there is nothing to scruple about, so after thinking about it, he said slowly: "Speaking of this matter, I am too worried." But I always feel that the king asked me to be this commonplace, as if he was putting me on the table again. ”

"Why does the old man think so?" Li Dui was suddenly shocked, he always felt that Zhao Cheng was Zhao Yong's uncle, so Zhao Yong was relieved to hand over this financial power to Zhao Cheng, but from Zhao Cheng's words, it seemed that the two of them already had a disagreement. Otherwise, why did Zhao Cheng say that he was "again" with him?

"It's a long story." Next, Zhao Chengcheng started from the appointment of himself as the steward of the funeral after Zhao Yong woke up, and continued to talk about today's appointment. Li Dui listened and thought at the same time, trying to find some clues through Zhao Cheng's description, he has always been quite conceited, and he has always been unwilling to bow his head for this kind of thing, so he listened very carefully.

"Listening to the meaning of the old man, the king seems to be particularly concerned about the adult, but this kind of care is full of the taste of the edge." Li Dui keenly felt that Zhao Yong seemed to have a lot of layouts between using and not using Zhao Cheng.

"Yes, according to the new monarch's succession, if you really want to reuse someone, you must entrust important matters to him. Although the funeral is indeed a major event, it still has little effect compared with government affairs, because once the funeral is over, who remembers what you did? If it is said that the king has no embankment for me at this time, then it can be regarded as the old man living in vain. Zhao Cheng said, he shook his head, "If this is the case, I'm afraid I can't do this empty position, otherwise, sooner or later I will be framed." The only thing I am afraid of is that I am afraid of Zhao Guo and repeat the mistakes of Jin State. ”

Li Dui was stunned for a moment, and then nodded in shock, he knew that the mistake that Zhao Cheng said was a famous public case.

In the twenty-sixth year of King Yijiu of Zhou Ping, the Marquis of Jin Zhao gave the land of Quwo to his uncle Chengshi, and the lineage of Chengshi was called Uncle Quwohuan. In the fourth year of King Huan of Zhou, Uncle Huan's grandson succeeded to the throne and was called Quwo Wugong.

Because Quwo is a place with fertile water and soil and abundant resources, Quwo quickly became strong, and by the time of Duke Wu's generation, it was enough to be proud of the Jin Kingdom. As a result, Duke Wu's ambition swelled day by day, and finally in the winter of the thirteenth year of King Huan of Zhou, he booby-trapped the Marquis of Jin, that is, the Marquis of Jin at that time. However, because King Huan of Zhou sent Yu Zhong to lead troops to attack Duke Wu of Quwo, Duke Wu had to retreat to Quwo, and King Huan of Zhou then set up the younger brother of the Marquis of Jin, that is, the uncle of the Marquis of Xiaozi, Gongzi as the monarch of Jin, and Quwo failed to annex the Jin State.

However, after many years of planning, the thief-hearted Qu Wowu Gong finally attacked the Marquis of Jin in the fourth year of King Zhou and destroyed it. This time he paid great attention to the upper route, bribing the king of Zhou with the looted treasures and artifacts, and when the king of Zhou saw that he was on the road this time, he appointed Qu Wo Wugong as the king of Jin and listed as a prince. Qu Wo Huan Shu Ji a line completely defeated Ji Qiu a line, won the orthodox status of the Jin State, from the beginning of Qu Wo's canonization, a total of 67 years before and after, because Wu Gong from Qu Wo into the Jin capital Yicheng, so the history is called Qu Wo Dai Yi.

However, this is not the end, after Quwo Daiyi, the Jin princes of Quwo Huan Zhuang who grew up from the war began to dream of abolishing the Jin Xian Gong at that time, and staged Qu Wo Dai Yi again, but Jin Xian Gong took the lead in destroying the Qu Wo Jin Gong Clan, whether it was the Jin Wenhou lineage, or the close Ruhuan Uncle and Zhuang Bo lineage, killing and fleeing, so that the Jin State has no more clans since then. The Jin clan withdrew from the political stage of the Jin State, so that since then, the "non-continuation of the group of sons" has become a national policy, and when the Jin Wen Gong dominated the Central Plains, the system of three armies and six secretaries was established, that is, the prototype of the six secretaries of the Jin State, until the three families were divided into Jin.

What Zhao Cheng is worried about here is that he is afraid that Zhao Guo will once again stage the chaos of the Six Emperors brought about by the Jin State's "non-continuation of the group of sons".
