"Made, good thing, how did it become like this. How can such an exaggerated thing be believed to be true! Liu Kui smashed another tea bowl and said hatefully: "No, it must not be counted like this." If you count it like this, all the price I spent will be wasted! ”

Liu Kui, who was unwilling, was anxious to turn around in the room. But he has almost used all kinds of tricks, and now he really has no way to think about it.

"I can't help it, maybe Fan Ling's kid has." In an instant, Liu Kui hit Fan Ling with his idea, "Made, how can Lao Tzu's benefits be so easy to receive." Since you have received my benefits, how can it be possible to think that you can't make any effort! ”

Thinking of this, Liu Kui didn't hesitate, and went directly to the Congress to find Fan Ling.

"Lord Duke, why are you here?" Seeing Liu Kui coming here to find him, although Fan Ling was very surprised, he still hurried out, "Hurry up, please come inside!" ”

"Lord Fan, I don't know which bastard has added a snake to the snake and made a good thing like this. I'm not worried here, and I want to confirm with you about those councilors. "The current Liu Kui is not polite at all, as soon as he entered Fan Ling's office, he told him what he meant.

"Lord Duke, this is a difficult matter." Hearing this, Fan Ling sighed and said, "At that time, when I talked to those parliamentarians, we had to make the reputation of the prime minister stink. But now ......"

"Lord Fan, you have to find a way to do this." Although Liu Kui also knew that what Fan Ling said was the truth, how could Liu Kui, who had spent such a big price, be willing, "This matter is not only related to my father, but also to the future of Lord Fan, can you not contribute!" ”

"Your Excellency. If there is a way, how can it not be used in the next! Seeing that Liu Kuilai had fallen on him, Fan Ling was very helpless, "But if you don't beat the prestige of the prime minister, those parliamentarians will definitely not dare to mess around." ”

"As the saying goes, there is no wind and no waves. There are so many rumors about the prime minister now, which should provide some excuse for those parliamentarians! ”

"Lord Duke, what is going on outside now, how can those things be an excuse!" Fan Ling shook his head for a while, "It's not ......"

"But what?" I heard that things were turning around. Liu Kui asked excitedly.

"But if you can find someone, go directly to the Prime Minister's door and question the Prime Minister, and then take the opportunity to discredit the Prime Minister. Regardless of whether the matter is successful or not, as long as we make things bigger, we will not worry about no chance! ”

"To question and discredit the prime minister?" Liu Kui shook his head for a while. "Who can we ask to question and discredit? Who has this qualification. Who has the guts?! ”

"There are a lot of guts!" Fan Ling said: "Our Majesty does not sin people with his words. He also encouraged people to participate in politics, and some of those students dared to question the prime minister. But the problem is that their qualifications are a little worse, and they can't have much influence! ”

"Alas, in the past, this duke was a prince. In order to avoid secrecy, I didn't dare to have too much contact with those officials and celebrities. It's a bit hard to find someone to do something like this now! ”

"If you want to talk about celebrities, I know one below. Although it cannot be said that it is famous all over the world. But in the capital and Beizhou, it is also very famous. Saying that, Fan Ling smiled, "The most important thing is that this person is very obsessed with official positions, if the Duke can be tempted by a high-ranking official, he is really likely to come out and take this risk." ”

"Oh, who is this man?" Liu Kui was interested.

"This person is, Jizhou celebrity Cui Lie Cui Weikao."

"Cui Lie, this person has heard of it. I don't know if he can stand up for his father? ”

"I feel that as long as the Duke is tempted by a high-ranking official, he is very likely to agree." Saying that, Fan Ling explained to Liu Kui, "Because of the relationship between my family and ancestors, I can often participate in some gatherings of celebrities and gentlemen. So, there are many opportunities to meet him. There have been many times in the next generation, I have heard him complain that the court will not use people, and like him, he is just an insignificant petty official. Therefore, I feel that as long as the Duke is willing to pay the capital, it is okay to give it. ”

"Okay, as long as this can be done, my father doesn't care about spending more money!" Hearing this, Liu Kui said happily: "This matter is sooner rather than later, tonight my father-in-law will charter the Wusun Pavilion again, and invite this Cui Lie to the banquet, so I will ask Lord Fan to help make an appointment." ”

"That's no problem, I'll definitely make an appointment with the Duke in the future."

Seeing that one went to the Bao Guild Hall and the other went to invite someone, Xu Xiang, who was in charge of monitoring, couldn't help but scold, "Made, these two bastards, if they don't toss something, they don't seem to be willing!" ”

But scolding and scolding, these things are not something that Xu Xiang can control. Helpless, he could only follow Liu Kui to the guild hall and listen to what they discussed, whether it could be done.

Cui Lie's official eunuch family was born and has a high reputation since he was a child. Therefore, he is quite conceited. But on the contrary, he is now only a petty official who is not in the stream, and his promotion is far away, which makes him inevitably complain. Now Fan Ling came to him, saying that there were nobles who appreciated him, but he didn't say a word, and followed Fan Ling.

Seeing that Cui Liezhen was invited, Liu Kui was quite happy, and hurriedly let the two of them go to the living room. And Fan Ling, a lobbyist, is also quite competent, as soon as they sat down, he opened his mouth here.

"Lord Cui, Lord Duke has a lot of appreciation for you. He's now in the running for the position of Prime Minister, and if he succeeds, he'll be reused for you! ”

"That's a thank you to the Duke." Cui Lie is not a fool, and he doesn't take this kind of promise too seriously.

"Master Cui, you are so polite." Liu Kui said with a smile on his face: "With your full talent, the prestige of Beizhou and the capital, how can you only be a petty official who is not in the stream." A talent like you must at least be in charge of one! ”

"Well, what's the use of all this? You say it and don't count! Listening to Liu Kui's words, Cui Lie shook his head secretly.

"Master Cui, do you hear that, Lord Duke really appreciates you." Cui Lie's expression all fell into Fan Ling's eyes, and he hurriedly said: "If the Duke can become the prime minister, you can be in charge of one." ”

"With the current prime minister, how can you be the prime minister, there is no hope at all!" Cui Lie, who is not optimistic about Liu Kui at all, can only be as perfunctory as possible for the singing and harmony of the two, "Na Lie, thank you Lord Duke for your appreciation?" ”

"Master Cui doesn't need to be so polite, come on, let's drink first." Seeing that Cui Lie was not in high spirits, Liu Kui picked up the wine glass. But in secret, he glanced at Fan Ling.

"What are you urging, such a thing, we have to take our time." Seeing Liu Kui's color, Fan Ling was slandered for a while. However, if he eats other people's mouths and takes other people's hands short, he has to help others speak. So, after a toast together, he spoke again, "Lord Cui, now that Lord Duke is competing for the phase, he has encountered a problem, and he urgently needs Lord Cui's help?" ”

"With this sesame mung bean official, how can he help the Duke. Deyun, you're kidding. Seeing that it was Liu Kui, Cui Lie regretted coming this time, how could he easily let go now.

"How can you be joking, Lord Cui, although your official position is small, your prestige is high. In the entire capital, even in the north, who has never heard of adults. As long as you come out and say something, you can help the Duke. ”

"Alas, there is no good feast, this is considered to be on a thief ship." With a secret sigh, Cui Lie stopped talking.

Seeing Cui Lie like this, Liu Kui didn't mention it in a hurry, and looked at Fan Ling vigorously.

"If people don't answer, it's useless for you to urge me!" Seeing Liu Kui's fierce urging, Fan Ling was also very anxious, and continued: "Master Cui, you also know your thoughts. But do you think you can see hope when you are on an errand under the current prime minister? ”

Cui Lie, who was asked about the sore spot, finally loosened his face a little.

"There's a door!" Seeing Cui Lie's face loosening, Fan Ling spoke again, "Rich and dangerous, Lord Cui, as long as we find a way to get the current prime minister down, you can be in charge." ”

"What do you want me to do?" Cui Lie was finally moved by Fan Ling's words.

"Now the rumors about the prime minister, that's flying all over the sky. We don't need Master Cui to do anything else, just bring a group of people to question the prime minister about these rumors, and let him explain the content of these rumors. Of course, it would be better if you could take the opportunity to discredit him. ”

"Questioning the prime minister is not a big deal, and he can also have a good reputation for caring about state affairs. Although there is a possibility of being retaliated against by the prime minister, in the face of benefits, this risk can be taken. Anyway, this prime minister, even if he is elected, he can only serve for five years at most. But the question is, what are their chances of winning, and it is not cost-effective for me to offend people in vain. Thinking of this, Cui Lie asked, "If I do this, will the Duke be elected?" ”

"With the reputation of the duke, as long as the prime minister is discredited, who can compete with him." Fan Ling knew that success or failure was all about this, so he said to Cui Lie with a haughty face: "In terms of identity, Lord Duke is the closest relative of His Majesty today. In terms of status, don't say that the Duke was once a prince, but the current Duke title, there are not many in our Han Dynasty. With such an identity and status, coupled with the support of most of the congressmen, where do you think this phase can run?! ”

"Well, if it's exactly what you say. I'm going to go out and question our prime minister! ”

Hearing Cui Lie's reply, Liu Kui and Fan Ling were all overjoyed. But Xu Xiang, who was listening in another house, couldn't help but sigh, "Alas, this capital is about to be eventful!" (To be continued......)
