Chapter Eighty-Seven: Heavy on the Mind

Zheng Yi sat in the carriage, wiping his sweat with a silk scarf, the bruises on his forehead were very obvious, he walked around in front of the Son of Heaven, and finally came out safely, leaving the palace and returning to the embassy where he stayed. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

If the Son of Heaven was a little dissatisfied, Zheng Yi would not have passed the test so easily, because there would be no one to protect him in Yecheng.

The Son of Heaven has a hundred reasons to kill him, but there is only one reason to let him go, and now he is right, and then he will wait for the will to be issued, and then he will go to Guanzhong.

In order to show sincerity, it is necessary to spend more than half a year in the mausoleum of the first emperors, especially the mausoleum of Zhao Wangyu Wenzhao, you must stay for a long time to show his sincerity and determination in repentance.

To do this, I have done my best, as for what will happen in the future, I can only resign myself to fate, Zheng Yi is old, and he has a "case record", his career is definitely hopeless, he just wants not to affect his son.

Zheng Yi has four sons, and the days to come are still very long, so he only hopes that his son can have a future now.

Where is the future? Here in Yuwenwen, now only this King of Xiyang can help him.

This time, he rushed to Yecheng day and night, busy with the shadow puppet troupe's performance in the palace, although he was only tuning the timbre, but he also got the opportunity to meet the Son of Heaven, and this idea was Yuwen Wen's idea, called putting it to death and then rebirth.

The death of Zhao Wangyu and many clans is indirectly related to Zheng Yi, so even if the Son of Heaven doesn't say it on his face now, the extreme resentment in his heart is unavoidable, and it is better to give the other party anger than to dodge.

Yu Wenwen's opinion is that since Zheng Yi is all old and his sons are still young, he really can't use his own lives to save his four sons, lest one day the Son of Heaven touch the scene and exile his whole family to a remote place in a fit of anger, and it will not be good if the whole family dies at that time.

Zheng Yi pondered for a while and thought that it was worth taking the risk, and now it is a preliminary pass, so he should wipe his cold sweat so as not to get cold later.

At the end of summer, the weather was still hot, and the carriage was a little stuffy, Zheng Yi opened the curtains to ventilate, looked at the street scene outside the window, and thought about how to spend his days in Yecheng.

The wine shop and the music shop must not go, so he can only stay in the embassy, and no one will come to visit him in Yecheng, even the clansmen of the Zheng clan in Xingyang will not dare to communicate with him openly in Yecheng, for fear of getting into trouble.

People hate dogs, probably that's it, it's better in Huangzhou.

Thinking of Huangzhou, thinking of Xiyang Wang Yuwenwen, Zheng Yi feels that this person is different, his words and deeds are often a little out of line if he follows the rules, and he knows how to be profligate, but he knows how to be measured.

Zheng Yi was well-informed, proficient in eating, drinking, and having fun, and often played with the sons of Zhou Taizu when he was young, and later Emperor Wu succeeded to the throne and appointed him as the prince Yin as the adjutant of the crown prince Yu Wenyun.

Yuwen Yun is a playful master, so he and Yi and Liu Fang changed their ways to make each other happy, but Emperor Wu watched it very closely, until Yuwen Yun ascended the throne and no one restrained him, the monarch threw off his arms and played to his heart's content, Zheng Yi boasted that he had seen countless big scenes, and the results were not as good as today's shadow puppet plays.

"A Chinese Ghost Story", how did Yu Wenwen come up with this plot and performance form? Zheng Yi didn't know, he only felt that if Yuwen Wen used this to please Emperor Tianyuan back then, he and Liu Fang would really be overshadowed.

When it comes to eating, drinking, and having fun, Yuwen Wen is much more powerful than him, and all kinds of ideas that he came up with, if they were in those days, would have been greatly favored by Emperor Tianyuan, and then the first favorite minister around the Son of Heaven would be none other than Yuwen Wen.

No, it's impossible, Yuwen Yun's defense sect is like a thief, so even if Yuwen Wen is flattering, it is impossible to be reused, Zheng Yi is sure of this, so he feels that Yu Wenwen's previous performance was mediocre, and he probably figured out the key.

There is no way, since the Jin King Yuwen Hu abused his power and abolished the emperor one after another, the emperor was very suspicious of the clan, and he set the imperial uncles in the air and then rushed to the field, in case there was another Yuwen Hu in the clan.

Therefore, after Yu Wenyun was assassinated that year, he and Liu Fang were able to easily exclude the clan and hand over the power to their relative Yang Jian.

Don't say what would happen if Qi Wangyu Wenxian hadn't died, as long as Zhao Wangyu Wenxian was recruited in the capital at that time, where would they have the slightest chance? As a result, the great country changed hands in an instant, and the clan was slaughtered like a chicken slaughtering a sheep.

It is also thanks to Wei Chi that he raised troops against Yang to protect half of the country, so that there is such a situation now.

With this experience, Zheng Yi felt that the Son of Heaven should rely on the clan in the future, so the prospects of King Qi's father and son were promising, but the premise was that they could pass the hurdle of the Wei Chi clan.

If the contradiction between the two sides is not done well, it will be a bloody storm, and then they will have to choose a side, once they choose the wrong one, there will be no room for maneuver, Zheng Yi can't help but have a headache when he thinks of this.

If the two sides really tore their faces and broke out into a conflict, of course he hoped that Yuwen Wen would win, but the situation on the sect's side was really not optimistic, so he decided to guard the mausoleum of the first emperor in Chang'an for a few years and wait until the dust settled.

Or is it another gamble?

Thinking of this, Zheng Yi's heart thumped, if he wanted to gamble, he would naturally gamble, the bet was all on Yu Wenwen's side, once he succeeded, then the profit would be predictable.

Yu Wenwen is extremely able to make money, and he can make a fortune in Huangzhou, just a shadow puppet theater, and when he opens a big reward, he has dozens of daily inputs, which is still the number before he left Xiyang and rushed to Yecheng, and now it should be open normally, and there will be more inputs.

Zheng Yi knew that for Yu Wenwen, shadow puppetry was just a drop in the bucket, and the income from his "dividends" was much more cost-effective than taking bribes, if the clan really won in the future, Yu Wenwen would have more opportunities to make money, and he would also be able to make a lot of money.

That's a lot more money than you can get by taking bribes!

However, if you want to gamble, you have to have capital, does he have enough capital?

Of course, Zheng Yi was born in the Yingyang Zheng family, although he himself is now notorious, but if he really wants to open up, he can still say that some clansmen can be moved, it is nothing more than the size of the determination and interests.

However, if this gamble is lost, his whole family will die.

To bet or not to bet? This is a problem, and it is a problem that many ministers of the DPRK and China are facing today.

At that time, Yang Jian replaced Zhou with Sui, and many people followed the trend to become Sui courtiers, but last year the Zhou army invaded Guanzhong, and then the situation changed greatly, and many of these people went with the flow and became Zhou courtiers, in an embarrassing situation.

Because of the loss of the big festival, and the prime minister's family of talents, they have little chance to be reused, and the clan is actively wooing, but many people have concerns, after all, the gap in strength between the clan and the prime minister is a bit big.

In case there is a day when there is a turnaround, no one wants to be on the side of the loser, so many people are entangled, or simply avoid it: no matter who is the emperor, just take a small day anyway.

If you can't do it, you can stay at home, and saving your life is more important than anything else, after all, in less than ten years, so many changes have happened, and no one can't stop beating the drums in their hearts.

In the second year of the elephant, Yang Jian assisted the government, and those who opposed him were killed, and those who supported him were killed by Wei Chiyu; Later, after six or seven years of war, those who were defeated and died were destroyed and their families were destroyed; Later, the Zhou State destroyed the Sui, and another group of people lost their lives.

Tossing and turning, it's really miserable, Zheng Yi is a little unpredictable about the development of the future situation, so the idea that just came out of it is gradually not so firm.

Just when he was preoccupied, he noticed that the carriage had slowed down significantly, and was about to ask the coachman what had happened, but through the window of the carriage he saw a crowd of people on the side of the street, as if many people were gathering outside a shop to watch something.

In order to accumulate popularity, the guys in the store desperately shouted: "Glass window, glass window, everyone come and see, it is the glass window of Huangzhou, Shannan!" ”
