Chapter 4: Green shirts change robes to seek kingship
"Chief, why is the king so happy today?" Hearing King Qi's hearty laughter, the little eunuch outside the study asked suspiciously. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Seeing that the few little eunuchs around him didn't know anything, Yu Dehai suddenly realized that he had grown up watching King Qi, and I am afraid that he was the only one who knew the king for so many years. There was an air of pride from the inside out, and he couldn't help but straighten his back.
"I tell you, the man inside is waiting for you. Don't say I didn't warn you. Yu Dehai seemed to remind kindly.
"King, it's so late, you should rest early." Chen Zichen felt that he had said a lot today.
"Zichen, the widow is not tired, you continue." King Qi didn't feel the slightest tiredness, he only felt very happy today, since he met Chen Zichen.
"King, you should rest, otherwise those imperial histories will know about it, and they may have to sue me." Chen Zichen quipped.
"Dare.." Of course, it is nothing for the King of Qi to say this, but Chen Zichen has just returned to Qi State, and there are not many people who know him well.
"King, you really have to take care of your body, we will have a chance to talk again in the future."
seemed to see that Chen Zichen was a little tired, and knew that he only came back yesterday, so King Qi said: "It's okay, Zichen, you just came back, and you are a little tired, so I won't talk about it today, don't go back today, and accompany the widow in the palace." ”
Chen Zichen couldn't refuse King Qi's invitation, and he didn't want to refuse, so he nodded and agreed.
Seeing Zichen nodding, King Qi was a little relieved, he was only two years older than Chen Zichen, he treated Chen Zichen like a brother back then, and now he sees him again, but he also has a feeling of gathering affection and not letting go.
Although Chen Zichen stayed in the palace, it was impossible to live with King Qi, but lived in a side hall.
"Chen Zhuang, you and Chen'er have suffered all these years, and thanks to you for taking care of Chen'er." After listening to Chen Zhuang's story, Chen Fudao burst into tears.
His third son has been a little smart since he was a child, and he wanted to cultivate it well, but he didn't want to leave him at a young age. Although Chen Fudao is now the lord of Lingyang City and the minister of the humerus of King Qi, what about Chen Fudao after a hundred years? What is left but the false position of a knighthood? The eldest son and the second son are not suitable for the road of official careers, and they have tried to let them go over the years, but they are not satisfactory, they are suitable for pragmatism, straight temperament, and cannot adapt to the twists and turns of officialdom.
"Master, don't say that, I've learned a lot from the young master over the years, and I can't repay what the young master gave me in my life." Chen Zhuang said sincerely.
"It's not early, why hasn't Chen'er come back yet?" Chen Fudao was a little worried.
"Master, don't worry, the young master must live in the palace." Chen Zhuang said with certainty.
"Oh? It's possible. Chen Fudao suddenly realized that his son was staying in the palace. As the saying goes: the care is self-disproportionate.
Chen Zichen, who was resting in the side hall, stayed awake all night, from the moment he stepped into the palace, he was destined to be trapped in this quagmire, maybe this was a fate that he could not escape. His instincts told him that he should stay, stay and help him. It's not like what I said when I was arguing with someone back then, just come back and take a look.
Today's Qi State is terminally ill, and the inheritance of four or five hundred years has gradually corrupted, and the interests and strength have eroded most of the people. In Chen Zichen's view, even his father may not be able to avoid these.
Today's Qi State has to face the Xishan Qiu Alliance, which is about to collapse, and has to deal with several disputes internally. Every time in the court, the main peace faction seeks peace in order to survive, the main battle faction uses troops for strength, the reformers reform in order to expand interests, the conservatives stick to it for the sake of interests, and there are some neutral factions who seem to be neutral, but in fact they have already made a lot of money and sold their reputation.
Chen Zichen turned over, he knew that with his own strength, he couldn't change all this at all, and he was not Uncle Sun, he angrily beheaded six first-class officials for the sake of Qi State, and copied the homes of dozens of people, Chen Zichen thought that he couldn't do it like Uncle Sun.
King Qi sat on the wooden chair, a little dazed, and Chen Zichen's return gave him confidence. However, he knew that he was weak, even if Zichen came back, he didn't want to hurt Zichen. Many people know that Qi Guo is terminally ill, so why not reform it?
Benefit. Everything is interests, no one is willing to give up their own interests, even if the country is about to die, they are more looking for a way back for themselves, leaving enough life-saving cards for themselves in the future purge.
More than 200 years ago, Uncle Sun once said to the then King of Qi: "If the king wants the country of Qi to be rich and strong, he only needs to give me three days." ”
It's really only three days, no more, no less, everything that has been completely solved, but now it's different, the Han family has long perished, uprisings can be seen everywhere, melee for more than a hundred years, anything can happen, if the king of Qi makes a little big move now, the Qi country may end the same as the Han Dynasty.
Sitting up and looking at the half-round moonlight in the dark night, Chen Zichen frowned, in the dark night, no one could see his expression clearly.
Someone once said to him, "If you know that you can't do things, you are reckless; It is a coward to know that something can be done and not to do it; If you don't know whether something can be done and don't do it, you are a blind man; If you don't know if you can do it, you are a gambler.
Yes, it is a gambler, although things are not going well, but there will be a lot of accidents in this process, and no one knows what the result is. People's speculation is the general trend, Chen Zichen is powerless to change the general trend, he just wants to contribute a little bit to the Qi country, so as not to lose so badly, no, no, no one can say for sure.
To know the result, the only way to see is to see who lived longer.
Zichen lay down and sighed softly, this night, there are two people destined to be sleepless.
King Qi rubbed his head, closed his eyes, and said to himself: "Zichen has suffered a lot for me, this time, let me bear it alone." ”
..
It was as if the rooster's dawn was very punctual, and at the moment when it just spoke, two people opened their eyes at the same time, with a hint of determination in their eyes, and a hint of gleam in their eyes, but in the bottom of their eyes, there was a sigh after all.
"Wang, Zichen has something to say to you.."
"Zichen, the widow has something to tell you.."
After the two of them met early in the morning, it was such a tacit understanding, which really made Yu Dehai on the side a little embarrassed, if he didn't know about both of them, in the eyes of outsiders, I am afraid that the two of them would have a habit of dragon yang.
"Ahem. Cough. Zichen, what do you have to say, just say it. King Qi had already guessed that Chen Zichen had something to say. And I also expected what he was going to say.
Although Chen Zichen was very puzzled about what King Qi wanted to say to him, as a courtier, he still obeyed the order and expressed his views first.
"Since the end of the Han Dynasty the world collapsed, the princes rose up, crusade and annexation, the war has never been broken, fifty years ago, the six kings held the Xishan Autumn Alliance, the truce and cultivation, the vigorous development of various countries, plus many hermits in the world out of the mountain to join the master, want to make immortal achievements before unification, spread for hundreds of generations, the rapid development of various countries, compared to my Qi country, 50 years, entangled in the war and, fierce debate in the revolution, and even fish in troubled waters, Qi Zhi's ministers do not think about the foundation of the country, every time thinking about the benefits, in recent years, the national strength of Qi is declining, and the moths of the country can be seen everywhere, worrying about the country and the people is not about Si. On the general trend of the world, it must be unified in the future, and now, the collapse of the Autumn Alliance is imminent, the forces and princes are seeking allies, the war is imminent, the momentum is small, and the king can see it. His Majesty especially remembers the words of unification in the past, and wants to fight with the king, fight, I don't know if the king promises? Chen Zichen stood with his hands in his hands, and in the surprise of King Qi, he said his thoughts.
King Qi was shocked, this person in front of him was indeed a childhood playmate, a former old friend, and now, he had matured and had his own ideas. I don't need the protection of my "brother" anymore.
Chen Zichen looked at King Qi and hoped that King Qi could shoulder this responsibility with him.
There are poems: Qi is tired and sick,
Yun Shen said that the rooster crowed.
Wisdom and talent heal the country,
A piece of Akagi is loyal to the heart.
