Chapter 4 The Way of Officials
"Xiuming." Walking on the spacious bluestone street, Cai Yong sighed and looked ahead.
"What does the teacher command?" Ye Zhao bowed slightly.
"Since Zhao Ji got married, the relationship between you and me, master and apprentice, has been divided a lot." Cai Yong shook his head and said, "You didn't call me that before. ”
Fortunately, there is such a play, otherwise, Ye Zhao and Cai Yong will suddenly become angry, which will inevitably cause suspicion.
"I can't complain about the teacher for this matter, but don't you really let the teacher suffer in that bitter cold place?" Shaking his head, Ye Zhao took the opportunity to change his name, don't look at the difference between this word, but the relatives are estranged and the near can be in this: "The students used to be young and vigorous, and they didn't know how to advance or retreat, and they still had to worry about the teacher, so they really shouldn't be." ”
Cai Yong turned his head and looked at Ye Zhao seriously, although Ye Zhao was a little uneasy in his heart, worried about what this old man would see, but after all, he was a person who had seen the wind and waves, but his face was calm, and after a long time, Cai Yong retracted his gaze, shook his head and smiled: "Xiu Ming, you are talented and intelligent, you have learned all over a hundred schools before you reach the age of a weak crown, and you have your own unique views on world affairs, but you are too rigid and inflexible, the old man has been worried that one day, your temperament will harm you, so he just recommended you as filial piety, but did not help you open your eyes, you are young, still needs to be honed, secondly, your temperament is really not suitable for a career in the career, and letting you enter the career too early will harm you as far as you are concerned. ”
Ye Zhao nodded, the temperament of the predecessor, mixed with officialdom, will definitely not survive three chapters.
"But what I saw today, although it seems to be reckless, it is actually interlocking, from the moment you walked into the lobby at the beginning, Wei Xian fell into your calculations without knowing it." Cai Yong glanced at Ye Zhao with a smile: "The gentry, the old man, including Na Wei Qi, have all become your accomplices, the crime of murder, the crime is not light, but it was easily resolved by you, so that the old man can rest assured when he leaves." ”
Ye Zhao glanced at Cai Yong in surprise, the old man was silent, but this insight was amazing.
"It seems that this setback is not a bad thing for you, and the old man can rest assured to help you open your eyes and help you get on the job." Speaking of this, Cai Yong suddenly paused and turned his head to look at Ye Zhao: "Do you know, what is the most important thing about this as an official?" ”
Ye Zhao was a little unsure of the old man's thoughts at the moment, shook his head and said, "The disciple is stupid, I hope the teacher will give you advice." ”
"The way of being an official, in the final analysis, is just a treacherous word!" Cai Yong said with a smile.
Ye Zhao plucked out his ears in disbelief and looked at Cai Yong, no matter how you look at this, it shouldn't be said by a great Confucian, great Confucian, shouldn't you always talk about loyalty and patriotism?
"The teacher is saying that let the disciple be a traitor?" Ye Zhao frowned.
"Loyal? Traitor? Cai Yong looked into the distance, and a blank flash flashed in his eyes: "Ten years ago, the old man would never say such things, but now...... Alas...... The great traitor is like loyalty, the great loyalty is like a traitor, how can you say it clearly, how good it is to leave the name in the history, but who knows, above the history, how many souls of unjust death are gathered, and the teacher did not want you to enter the official career before Therefore, although you are talented, but you have a pure temperament, if you enter the officialdom, I am afraid that you will not die well. ”
"Thank you for the teachings of the teacher, and the disciples will remember." Ye Zhao's face was solemn, and he bowed.
"I thought you could marry Zhao Ji, but it's a pity that you can marry Zhao Ji, but it's a pity...... Creation makes people. Cai Yong shook his head: "Xiu Ming should keep in mind, above this career, whether it is a loyal minister or a mediocre minister, the first thing is to learn to be a traitor, although this reputation is not very good, but at least it can let you live, people can live, in order to do things, if you want to be a clean official, you have to be more traitorous than those corrupt officials, you have to rise step by step, and you have to be more traitorous than those who suppress you, otherwise, even if you die...... It may not be able to go down in history! ”
Ye Zhao nodded thoughtfully, in his last life, the entire earth has undergone a great purge, and the threat of zombies to the base city is not only from the outside, but also from internal problems, he is pulling up a team of people step by step, although he has seen the sinister hearts of people, but for these twists and turns, because of the external environment, it is almost a closed force, for many intrigues, he may not be proficient in the gang of people under him, and finally was betrayed and became a stepping stone for others, thinking about it is not without reason, Now listening to Cai Yong's words, I am also deeply touched.
The two fell into silence, and walked all the way to the inn where Cai Yong was temporarily staying, Cai Yong turned his head to look at Ye Zhao: "Early tomorrow morning, the old man will leave for Luoyang. ”
Ye Zhao frowned when he heard this, at this moment, he had just received his memory, and he had not yet clarified the current situation in the world, if he wanted to say what he thought, he really couldn't think of it.
"Not busy." Seeing this, Cai Yong smiled and said, "I'll tell the old man the answer tomorrow." ”
"Yes, the disciple is retiring." Ye Zhao nodded, and after seeing Cai Yong return to the inn, he was worried about meeting with the housekeeper, the maid and the two family members.
Light and three years?
Rubbing his temples, although Ye Zhao had also read history, before the end of his previous life came, he also liked to read some historical novels, but it was already a memory from ten years ago, and he could remember even less, and he really didn't have any feelings for the light and the name of the year.
Now he is temporarily settled, but he is used to being in power, and he is unwilling to judge life and death with one word, so that he can live a mediocre life.
"Look, it's the divine envoy of the Taiping Sect who is sending talisman water!" Just as Ye Zhao was combing through the memories in his mind and thinking about the future, he saw that for some reason on the street, a large number of people were suddenly elated, just like the New Year.
"What oracle?" Ye Zhao turned his head to look at Uncle Liang beside him with a puzzled expression, the maid on the side was already flushed with excitement and spoke incoherently, and Ye Zhao didn't bother to ask her.
"Uh, Gongzi forgot, it's the great sage and good teacher of the giant deer, he founded the Taiping Sect, these divine envoys are all disciples of the great sage and good teacher, and they were assigned by the great sage and good teacher to help the people in various places, give runes of water, treat people, and are quite loved by the people." Uncle Liang looked at Ye Zhao suspiciously, he remembered that Ye Zhao had been very concerned about this sect before.
"Great sages? Zhang Jiao? Oh, I remembered. Ye Zhao raised his eyebrows when he heard this, not only the memories that appeared in his mind, but also the memories of his previous life, and he finally found a historical figure that matched what he knew.
Zhang Jiao, isn't he the one who started the Yellow Turban Rebellion?
However, what really surprised Ye Zhao was that his predecessor had already noticed that this Taiping Sect was inappropriate two years ago, that is, when the name of the Great Sage and Good Teacher had just emerged.
It seems that his predecessor is not just an ordinary nerd, at least this insight is ahead of most people in this era.
"Interesting!" Now that you know the approximate age of the present, although the memory of the story after that has been blurred, it is certain that the world will be chaotic, so your future plan is simple.
Stopping the outbreak of the Yellow Turban Uprising?
Ye Zhao never thought that the Yellow Turban Uprising could sweep the whole country in a short period of time, not just because of the Taiping Sect, the Yellow Turban Uprising was just a booster, in fact, the Han Dynasty itself had decayed to a certain extent, even if there was no Yellow Turban Uprising, there would be a Green Turban Uprising or something, what he wanted to do was not to reverse the general trend, but to think about how to get enough benefits for himself under this general trend.
"Let's go, go back!"
……
Time went back to Ye Zhao and they left the Taishou Mansion, Wei Xian looked at the direction Ye Zhao left, and finally breathed a sigh of relief, bowed to Wei Qi and said: "Boru, thank you Boru for coming forward this time, otherwise today's matter will be ......"
"Uncle, if it's not the little nephew who said you, my Wei family is a wang clan, why do you need to use those three sects and nine streams to make things happen?" Wei Qi shook his head and sighed.
Although he is Wei Qi's uncle, in front of Wei Qi, Wei Xian is like a junior: "What Boru said is very true, I will pay attention to this matter in the future." ”
Wei Qi nodded, glanced at the direction in which Ye Zhao and the others left, and frowned: "But this Ye Zhao can't stay any longer." ”
"Uh......" Wei Xian couldn't turn around, and looked at Wei Xian in surprise: "Boru, didn't you mean ......"
"Cai Weng is here, on the official face, it is naturally difficult to embarrass him, but I look at this son's performance today, very different from the past, brave and strategic, and the most important thing is that Zhongdao has a hatred for taking his wife from him, and uncle, you almost broke his family, this grudge, even if it is due to Cai Weng's face today, it does not make a big deal about it, but I look at this person's performance today, I am afraid that in the future, I will still be embarrassed by you and even my Wei family, don't blame the little nephew for raising the morale of others, this person, uncle, you can't fight." Wei Qi shook his head and said.
"What does Boru think? I have some friendship with Yang Yuyu and others, so it's better to ......"
Wei Qian glanced at Wei Xian a little helplessly: "Uncle, you are a Taishou anyway, who is Yu Poison?" You have a relationship with him, if this thing spreads, don't talk about you, even my Wei family will be unlucky. ”
"So what?" Wei Xian frowned.
"Recommend him to the office!" Wei Qi said in a deep voice.
"Huh?" Wei Xian can't keep up with Wei Qian's thinking, he wants to get rid of him for a while, and he wants to recommend him for a while, what do you want?
"The ancestors of the Ye family have been generals for three generations, and now although Ye Zhao is weak, after all, he is the queen of the gate, and he is recommended to go to the frontier, and sometimes, he kills people...... It is not necessary for us to do it ourselves, this matter should be fast, and we must submit the letter of recommendation to His Majesty before Cai Weng enters Luoyang. Wei Qi said indifferently.
"High!" Wei Xian's eyes lit up when he heard this, as far as Ye Zhao's sick body was concerned, if he arrived at the frontier, let alone going into battle to kill the enemy, it would be the harsh climate, I am afraid that Ye Zhao would not be able to last long, and more importantly, he could leave his Wei family away from this matter, no matter what would happen to Ye Zhao after he went to the frontier, but at least on the surface, he Wei Xian could still get a reputation for generosity.
"Then I'll go to the mimetic book!" After Wei Xian agreed with a smile, he immediately went to the study, and after writing a piece of music recommending Ye Zhao, he ordered someone to send it to Luoyang overnight while the city gate was not closed.
