Shao Yuanjie didn't even say a useful word, and was drunk by Wei Shui. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 Of course, there is no way around it. The status is there, if Wei Shui doesn't want to say anything useful, then Shao Yuanjie has nothing to do about it.

After returning after the convenience, Wei Shui persuaded Shao Yuanjie to drink again.

Shao Yuanjie hurriedly waved his hand and confessed: "No, no, the poor road is not strong enough to drink, I really can't drink!" Please bear with me! ”

"Huh, that's not going to work?" Wei Shui raised his eyebrows and said, "Some people say that when you are happy, you have a good amount of alcohol, and when you are unhappy, you have a bad amount of alcohol." Daoist, are you unwilling to drink with Wei? You say, you say it! Wei must not dare to persecute you! ”

As soon as these words came out, Shao Yuanjie hurriedly denied it: "How could it be? Poor Dao is because of happiness, today can drink so much wine, if you change the past, three glasses of wine down, I am afraid that you will not be able to find the north. ”

"Oh, is that so?" Wei Shui pretended to understand, nodded and said, "Then since the wine is drunk, let's talk about something." Liu Rui told me, you have something to solve with me, right? Liu Rui is my fellow countryman, and he can also be regarded as half of my student. Anyway, I still have to give him face. So, what do you need, tell us about it. ”

After drinking like this, Shao Yuanjie almost forgot the purpose of his visit. But he was asked by Wei Shui to talk about the demand! It is conceivable that although Liu Rui has face here in Weishui, after this time, Liu Rui's face will expire. After that, if you want to find him and ask him to do something, it will be impossible.

Shao Yuanjie's mind was full of pulp, and he finally figured out his thoughts, and he said: "Second master, in fact, Poor Dao came this time just to let the second master introduce Poor Dao, and Poor Dao wants to meet Your Majesty and tell Your Majesty about the Taoist doctrine that I am doing." ”

"Oh? Doctrine? Wei Shui listened, leaned back in the chair, and asked, "What?" Do you think Your Majesty would be interested in your so-called teachings? ”

Shao Yuanjie said: "Whether you are interested or not, you can only determine after communicating with Your Majesty." ”

Wei Shui listened, shook his head, and said with a smile: "Dao Chief, what do you do with Wei Shui?" Are you so sure that I will help you for something that you don't know the outcome of? Well, at such a time, Wei has not done it, but the Taoist must tell Wei something......"

"What's the matter?" Shao Yuanjie hurriedly asked.

"Actually, it's very simple to say." Wei Shui said, "You have to tell me, help you do this, what can I get from you?" ”

What will I be able to gain.

This is what Wei Shui wants to know.

For the sake of a stranger I don't know, it is absolutely irrational to ruin my own overall situation. Moreover, the reason why Wei Shui did this was also to be able to gain the initiative in this negotiation.

Sure enough, without Shao Qinan's presence, Shao Yuanjie, who can only be reasonable, will not say anything about interests at all. The old man is already in the year of the sixtieth year this year, and he has long seen through things like power, and all he thinks about is to let Zhengyi, who has gone through a hundred years and is gradually not so valued in the Daomen, be able to regain his brilliance.

This has a lot to do with Emperor Jiajing being a very Taoist emperor, and it is precisely because the emperor believes in Taoism that Shao Yuanjie seized this golden opportunity to revitalize Zhengyi.

It's a pity that he is not wrong to hope that Wei Shui will introduce him for him. But introducing him is a price to pay, it is a risk, if there is no interest relationship, why should Wei Shui help such a stranger?

Although he had already thought of this at this time, he really couldn't think of any good reward in his urgency. He could only hesitate and said: "If the second master agrees with Poor Dao's statement and introduces Poor Dao, after Poor Dao convinces His Majesty, he will definitely be able to become a big help for the second master in the palace!" Do you think you need it? ”

"I do need help." Wei Shui did not hide it, and immediately nodded in acknowledgement. But as soon as the conversation changed, he said, "But if you are not sure that you can convince Your Majesty now, I will draw you as an aid, that is really ...... Too much risk, too little benefit. Loss-making business, Wei doesn't do it! ”

Wei Shui's words made Shao Yuanjie fall into a helpless situation.

He really couldn't think of anything that didn't benefit him, but Wei Shui had to need this, otherwise, he wouldn't want to help!

Shao Yuanjie is in such a situation that Wei Shui is willing to see, and it is precisely because he is in such a situation that it will be easier for Wei Shui to gain the initiative and power.

Seeing Shao Yuanjie in trouble for a while, Wei Shui finally spoke: "What? Don't you think of a solution? It's okay, it's okay, if you can't think of it, you can't think of it. However, in order to prevent the Taoist from coming in and returning in defeat, Wei had an idea! It's just that Wei doesn't know...... Would you like to hear it? ”

What is willing to listen and what is not willing to listen? Now, as long as Wei Shui agrees to help, there is nothing, which Shao Yuanjie is unwilling to hear.

After listening to Wei Shui's words, Shao Yuanjie hurriedly said: "Of course, of course I am willing!" The second master pleased, but it didn't matter, no matter what the conditions were, as long as it wasn't too harsh, Poor Dao was willing to agree. ”

"Haha, not harsh, not harsh!" Wei Shui said with a smile, "Wei is not the kind of person who takes advantage of people's danger!" If you know that you are willing to cooperate, you can do it! Dao Chief, Wei agreed, I can introduce you for you, as long as you promise me one thing. It's very simple, from now on, stop all your activities to pull relationships and go through the back door, just stay in the inn honestly and don't move, and it's best not to let anyone see the two of you. In this way, when I let you move, I will naturally introduce you to your majesty. When the time comes, you just have to do what I say, and Your Majesty will not only meet you, but will also consider you to be a great person! ”

"...... like this" Shao Yuanjie hesitated, he didn't know whether to believe Wei Shui's words or not. The old man, who is already in his sixties, really doesn't have much time to waste. This made him have to be cautious, he said, "Second master, it's not that you don't believe you, it's really my age, one day is less." You said let me wait...... I can wait! But you always have to tell me a waiting period! You can't just let my old man wait like this, drag it out for a year or two, right? ”

Wei Shui snorted coldly in his heart, and said in his heart: You want to delay it for a year or two, but Lao Tzu can't wait for a year or two. If he could, Wei Shui would want to leave the court now, go back to guard the Qiantang Hall and live a prosperous life, and never get involved in these conspiracies and tricks, fights and killings again.

But on the surface, he still smiled gently, and said to Shao Yuanjie, who was suspicious: "You don't need to wait for a long time, this scientific expedition, Wei has already made a plan with His Majesty, and he wants to use this plan to bring the cabinet into a place of no return." It only takes a few months to wait for this year's scientific expedition. When Mr. Shao arrives, he will be able to show his might. ”

Just wait until the scientific expedition......

Shao Yuanjie nodded secretly, no matter what, if he just waited for the scientific examination, he could have waited. Anyway, there are no more months left in total, so there is no rush for this moment.

In order to ensure that Wei Shui was telling the truth, Shao Yuanjie asked again and said, "What the second master said is the truth?" Poor Dao is old, but I really can't help you from being deceived! ”

Wei Shui said with a smile; "Of course it's true! Do everything only when it is beneficial. Lie to you, what is the effect on Wei? If you don't want to let you enter the palace to face the saint, Wei will casually use a little trick, and that's fine. Why go around in such a big circle? ”

Shao Yuanjie thought about it and felt that what Wei Shui said also made some sense. I couldn't help but nod and said, "Okay, if Poor Dao can trust the words of the second master, he will wait for a few months with peace of mind!" ”

After receiving Shao Yuanjie's affirmative reply, Wei Shui let the people go. After that, he returned to the small courtyard where he lived.

The time for the scientific examination is getting closer and closer, and the examiner has been decided, the chief examiner is Sun Jiao, the head examiner, and the deputy chief examiner is Yang Yiqing, the secretary of the ministry. It seems that it should be the result of Zhu Houxi's compromise and tug-of-war with the cabinet.

Wei Shui actually didn't want to know too much about the candidates for the examiner. Because no matter who is the chief examiner, it will definitely not affect the overall situation under Wei Shui's secret arrangement!

In this scientific expedition, Wei Shui is bound to reverse the current situation in which the cabinet is in power. Instead, let Jiajing Emperor Zhu Houxi have the upper hand in this duel!

Thinking of such a thing in his heart, Wei Shui secretly clenched his fists.

There have been cases of scientific research fraud since ancient times, and when Yang Ting and the cabinet were in power, they became more and more rampant! If Yang Tinghe and others succeed this time, then there will naturally be more people in the court who are in the same stream as Yang Tinghe. When the time comes, it will not be easy to be able to bring them down.

Ming died in party strife, so where did party strife come from?

The so-called party struggle refers to officials forming parties and fighting with each other. The Ming Dynasty developed to the Jiajing period, the signs of party struggle have been fully manifested, although there has not been a large-scale outbreak of party strife, but since it has begun to appear, then the outbreak is only a matter of time.

Wei Shui didn't know when the party struggle broke out, but he felt that if the officials hugged each other, it would be extremely unfavorable for the rule of a feudal dynasty. Because a group must have its interests, if there is only one group in the Manchu Dynasty, then their interests are the same, and they must be wrong.

The reason why it is said that their interests must be wrong is because in the Manchu Dynasty, there may be a small number of people who are capable officials and good officials, but there are always more scum and corrupt officials, and a large group of people accumulate together, which is naturally the soil for corrupt officials. Their interests will inevitably be biased in favor of the majority, and the majority of them are incompetent officials and corrupt officials.

Only when they are divided into many factions, and none of them have the complete upper hand, will they disguise themselves as sanctimonious in order to maintain their rule and maintain their position. Then, there will be unintentional care for the class that does not belong to them, that is, the people at the bottom.

Of course, these are the ills of the feudal era. If the problem of feudalism can be broken, it will be the best. It's a pity that Wei Shui doesn't think he is a capable person, and he doesn't want to make any big changes.

Change can only avoid large-scale bloodshed and sacrifice if it is from the top down. In addition, the so-called changes can only come at the cost of many people's lives. And it doesn't always work out.

"Second master, it's not early, should you rest early?" Mo Da stood beside him, looking at Wei Shui pondering for a long time, the night was already deep, but he didn't have the intention of resting, so he couldn't help but persuade him.

Wei Shui shook his head and said, "I can't sleep, if you're tired, go and rest first, you don't have to accompany me." ”

Where could Mo Da throw Wei Shui and go to rest by himself? had to continue to stand, and accompanied Wei Shuifa for a while.

By the time Wei Shui came to his senses to see him, he was already asleep standing up.

Wei Shui couldn't help but laugh at him dumbly: "I told you that you don't need to accompany me." ”

Mo Da was stunned by Wei Shui's sudden words, and when he woke up, for a while, even his sleepiness was scattered in an instant.

Wei Shui shook his head and said with a smile: "Since you don't want to sleep, sit down, sit down and talk to me." ”

Mo Da obeyed, answered, and then sat down.

Wei Shui asked, "Last time, you asked you to inform Shaoxing and send me a shopkeeper over, how did things go?" ”

Mo Da replied: "After you gave the order last time, the second master, my subordinates found someone and told this matter to continue. I have received a reply from Shaoxing, saying that the matter is already being done. The person has already decided, and he will arrive in Beijing in a few days. ”

"Oh, that's it......" Wei Shui nodded, "Who is it, did you say it?" ”

Mo Da thought for a while and replied: "If you go back to the second master, the person over there, do you know ......?"

"I know?" Wei Shui listened and said with a smile, "People I know...... Well? Interesting. Could it be Feng Xiaoxiao, or Mingli himself? Zhejiang still wants them to be in charge, if it is the two of them, tell them immediately, change the choice, I don't need them to come to the capital to do things, as long as I do those things in Zhejiang, it is better than anything! ”

Mo Da seemed to have expected Wei Shui to say this, and said with a rare smile: "Second master, it's not these two who came. The Qiantang Hall in Zhejiang has not been fully developed for the time being, and they dare not relax in the slightest, for fear that something will go wrong. This time, it was your old acquaintance who sent it, Fang Zhisheng! ”

"Fang Zhisheng?!" Hearing this name, Wei Shui inevitably lost his temper. He didn't know that Fang Zhisheng could be sent over there, "How could you think of sending him?" ”

As soon as Wei Shui asked this, Mo Daben laughed again.

When the people over there sent the letter, they originally wanted to surprise Wei Shui. In order to make this surprise work, Mo Da didn't tell Wei Shui at the first time. Wei Shui asked him about the matter today, and he had no way to hide it, so he told the matter! Originally, I couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive in my heart, thinking that if this thing was said, would Wei Shui feel that he would not be so surprised?

But in fact, after this matter was said, Wei Shui's surprise seemed to be no less than seeing Fang Zhisheng with his own eyes!

Fang Zhisheng, Mo Da didn't know him very well. After all, Mo Da is a native of Jiangxi, and he was brought out of the prison of Nanchang Mansion in Jiangxi Province and was brought out by Wei Shui, so he began to follow Wei Shui. As for Wei Shui's previous affairs, he knew very little.

The only thing he knew was from the letter he sent from Shaoxing.

Fang Zhisheng is a turning point in Wei Shui's life. It was from Fang Zhisheng who sold puppets on the street, and Wei Shui made money for him, but he was deceived by him, and he didn't get his own silver at that time, Wei Shui before seemed to have no fame at all in Shaoxing, and he was extremely low-key, so there would be no things to happen later.

Of course, Mo Da didn't know that Wei Shui was no longer the person who was extremely low-key and could even be called a bully. With the liar Wei Shui Soul of later generations to wear to Daming, there are so many things after that.

Thinking about it now, Wei Shui felt that although he was not very comfortable, he had indeed gained a lot of things compared to his previous life. For example, a while ago, he couldn't see the emperor, even if he was a county magistrate, he could strangle him. And now, the rulers of the Ming Dynasty all want to sell his face and be played by him. This kind of feeling may not be very comfortable when you experience it, but after experiencing it, when you think back on it afterwards, you feel, how to ponder, how to feel very comfortable!

And all of this, it seems, is thanks to this, the little puppet seller he has almost forgotten. If it weren't for him, Wei Shui would probably have to waste a lot of work to find a way to make a living. Moreover, his so-called way of making a living may not be as wonderful as it is now.

However, in the final analysis, I am afraid that what I want to thank is the kindness that Wei Shui had in his heart before he crossed back then. If it weren't for the fact that he was kind and unwilling to kill himself for the sake of money, he would not have set up the so-called overall situation and encircled Zuo Yi and foreigners together, verifying the phrase 'the legal net is restored, and negligence is not leaked', and at the same time, it also aborted the plan of the really ruthless bad guys. After that, a thunderbolt struck down and helped him cross over here.

That's really ......

Thinking of this, Wei Shui suddenly appeared in his mind with two images, constantly overlapping. Although Wei Shui hinted to himself in his heart that these were two people, they must be two people, but he still couldn't help but think about what these two people would look like after they coincided......
