Cen Chunxuan looked at the determined Chen Zhong, suddenly laughed, and said, "This official has long heard that the king of Hainan is extremely arrogant, which makes the court and the powers have a headache. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info today, this rumor is by no means false. This official wants to ask the king of Hainan, what is the basis for your arrogant assertion that Cen has no choice but to help you? ”

Chen Zhong did not answer Cen Chunxuan's question immediately, but slowly picked up the teacup, tasted the fragrant phoenix tea for a while, and then, after a while, tasted it, and said, "Good tea!" ”。

Then, Chen Zhong made a move that surprised all the people present. He picked a few dead leaves from the flower pot behind him and threw them in the tea.

Cen Chunxuan's face became a little ugly, he restrained his previous smile, and said, "King of Hainan, are you insulting this official?!" ”

Liu Yongfu and Song Wenqing were also taken aback, I don't know why Chen Zhong did this, this is obviously ridiculing Cen Chunxuan.

Chen Zhong smiled faintly and said, "Lord Cen, this king definitely has no intention of sneering, just using this tea set as a metaphor." Lord Cen, you say, this cup of fragrant tea, after being polluted by this dead leaf, will it still be a cup of excellent drink? ”

"King of Hainan, didn't you ask knowingly? After the clean tea is stained by dirty dead leaves, how can you drink it again! ”

"Lord Cen, you are like this cup of clear tea, these dead leaves are like those political enemies of yours, no matter how noble you are, you will inevitably not be implicated!"

"Oh, let's hear it." Cen Chunxuan's face changed a little. Liu Yongfu and Song Wenqing breathed a sigh of relief, and Song Qiaohui just stood quietly on the side, smiling and watching Chen Zhong's calm performance.

Chen Zhong got up and walked to the middle of the hall and said, "During the Gengzi Incident, Lord Cen, as the envoy of Gansu, could have not taken risks, stayed out of the matter, and waited and watched.

However, the eyes of the Manchu Dynasty civil and military, but only you, the adult, stood up and won a small number of people to go to Beijing for a long time to King Qin, basically supported by the adults themselves, which can be described as a loyal minister, and the king greatly appreciated it.

In that incident, Lord Cen escorted Cixi and Guangxu all the way to Xi'an, and although it was dangerous, he won the high trust of the Empress Dowager Cixi.

Even a few years later, Cixi still said in front of the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty: "When the mother and son of this palace are touring the west, if they are not taken care of by Cen Chunxuan Aiqing, I am afraid that they will starve to death, and there is no place today." This palace has long regarded Cen Aiqing as a relative.

From this incident, it can be seen that Lord Cen is definitely a loyal minister of a generation, and his character can be seen in the world! ”

Cen Chunxuan's expression was much soothed, and Liu Yongfu also nodded.

Chen Zhong continued: "However, what is more worthy of the admiration of this king and the world is that Lord Cen Chunxuan is not proud of this. But every time she dared to contradict the Empress Dowager Cixi for state affairs, she repeatedly spoke out and fought for reason!

From these behaviors, this king can be considered that Lord Cen is a capable minister with an extremely righteous sense of justice, and his heart is full of a strong sense of political crisis and reform. It is a person who is upright and upright.

You hate *, but you don't want to get along with people who live only for your own personal gain. You are not afraid of the powerful, you are willing to join people at every turn, and you don't blink an eye when you kill people, but you have also fallen into the notoriety of a "butcher".

After the Gengzi Incident, Lord Cen became a radiant political magnate in one fell swoop because of King Qin's behavior. However, it also offended a lot of people.

In May this year, after Lord Cen concurrently served as the superintendent of Guangdong Customs, you fell into a difficult situation even more.

In the past, the supervision positions of Guangdong Customs were all assigned by the Ministry of Internal Affairs and changed once a year. In previous years, the levy set by the branch was 5 million taels per year, but the number of people who handed over the branch was about 3 million taels, and no one had the full amount.

Since Lord Cen concurrently held this position, he sent someone to act as a promotion and effectively sort out, and the collection reached 6.6 million taels that year. Although he contributed to the imperial court, it also made many people hate adults because of it.

Does Guangdong Customs have a bookstore named Zhou Rongrong? He embezzled more than 2 million taels, went to Beijing to bribe Prince Qing and the chief minister of military aircraft, and was appointed as the minister of Belgium. Before he went abroad, Lord Cen immediately exposed his crimes, and in the end, this Zhou Rongrong was dismissed on the spot.

This incident not only offended some officials who had anything to do with the incident, but also offended Prince Qing, who had a huge influence in the DPRK and China. Yixuan and others are sparing no effort to frame adults.

Lord Cen, this king thinks, you are now like that cup of clear fragrant tea, polluted by these filths. Even if you have grace to Cixi Lafayette, this king thinks, and you can't afford to be framed by these villains!

The ancients would rather offend a gentleman than a villain. Lord Cen, your current situation is not too impressive! ”

Cen Chunxuan ordered someone to make Chen Zhong a new cup of tea, and said with a smile: "What the King of Hainan said seems to be the truth. However, this official is not used to those villains who are corrupt and bend the law and harm the interests of the court and the nation only for their own selfish interests! Big deal, Cen resigned from farming! ”

Chen Zhong took the new tea that had been brewed again and said, "Lord Cen, this is a bad word! However, the king concluded that this was not the words of the adults.

But then again, in the face of the stormy situation in front of us, how can we, as Chinese men, stay out of the matter and be unwilling to shoulder the responsibility? ”

Cen Chunxuan said: "So what? ”

"Lord Cen, here is an example with a deep meaning, this king will tell your lord to see if it can help us in cooperation.

Lady Cen, you see, put a raw egg, a carrot and a handful of tea leaves in three pots of the same boiling water for steaming.

After some time, raw eggs turn into hard hard-boiled eggs, carrots turn into limp carrot puree, and tea leaves turn into aromatic tea.

These three different things can express three different lives in this world.

After experiencing the vicissitudes of life, raw eggs have become the most important thing. He clings to his heart and does not want to communicate with the outside world, thus losing the beautiful world as well.

Carrots turn into carrot puree after years of wind and rain. However, from then on, he sank in the world, and he could never meet the beauty of this world again.

Only tea, after experiencing suffering, has achieved itself, fulfilled others, turned into a wisp of fragrance, a pot of freshness. Integrate with the small self and fulfill with the big self.

He has achieved himself, fulfilled others, and finally, lit up this beautiful world with an open heart, and he also exudes the fragrance of life because of this.

Lord Cen, do you say that this is the case, as long as the heart is bright, the world is not afraid of how dark it is!

Lord Cen, the reason why I make this analogy is just that I hope that adults can jump away from those inherent thinking, give yourself a little space, neither go with the flow like or radish, nor do you want to be stubborn like eggs to the end, but change yourself and put your thinking on the common plane of our national interests, then the problems you are facing will be solved!

It's a very simple truth, just like if you ask me why I'm so confident, it's not that this king is arrogant.

It is because, in terms of national interests, whether it is the court or the people, whether it is Yixuan, Yuan Shikai or the Empress Dowager Cixi, whether it is you or me, this is our common interest! Come to think of it, do you have no choice but to do so? ”
