Chapter 387: Persuasion
Generally speaking, these low-level disciples are not allowed to contact the people of the imperial court, and even if they do, they are specially contacted by the sect to outsiders.
Moreover, there are also very strict rules on dealings with the imperial court, that is, these sects are afraid of being influenced by the imperial court.
Of course, there has been such a country in this other world, and it is a big country, and this country has removed all the sects and then reintegrated them into the jurisdiction of the imperial court.
That is, to concentrate the power of all the warriors to manage, this kind of thing is naturally dissatisfied by other surrounding countries, of course, there are sects and various interests behind the lobbying, and finally several surrounding powers formed a martial arts alliance to attack that country, which eventually led to the decline of that country.
Having lost two-thirds of its land area, it was eventually reduced to a small, third-rate country, and now he is still alive because of the uneven distribution of spoils among the surrounding powers.
Otherwise, the country would have perished long ago.
In fact, Zhao Ze also has this idea of unifying the management of the sect, but the means can't be too motivating, and naturally he can't let the surrounding forces find excuses, as for how to do it now, he doesn't have too specific ideas, this matter can only come step by step, anyway, there is no sect power here now.
Therefore, now all major sects prohibit ordinary disciples from having dealings with sects, and even if they do exchanges, they must be recorded, so as not to be bought off by the imperial court, and it will be more troublesome at that time.
As for these low-level disciples, they are even more unfamiliar with the imperial court, especially Xu Le is completely an otaku, at most he has heard some rumors of the imperial court, and he never thought that anyone from the imperial court would notice him.
Xie Hong is better, because the Jiang family is relatively large, and there are also some businesses that are related to the Song court, and he has also been in contact with the people of the court many times, but the official positions of these people are not very big and not particularly important, so now Zhao Ze's identity still makes him a little surprised.
As for the battle for the throne of the Song Kingdom, neither of them was too involved, and most of them were still doing some other affairs.
So I don't have much feeling about the battle for the throne of the Song Kingdom.
Of course, because both of them are still young, the Jiang family was originally involved in this matter, but they didn't want to implicate Jiang Tao yet, so they didn't let this thing participate, and Xu Le didn't let him participate because of the attention of his adoptive mother Xu Wei.
Both of them were in a mess now, because they knew it wasn't that simple.
Because as long as they came to this place, they thought that both of them had a relationship with Zhao Ze, the fifth prince of the Song Kingdom.
Zhao Ze actually knew the rules of these sects, so he brought the two of them back for treatment, so that the two of them couldn't get rid of him.
Although both of them knew Zhao Ze's way, it was a pity that neither of them had the idea of resisting now, because saving their lives now was the most important thing.
Let's see what His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince of the Song Kingdom wants them to do?
Xu Bad spoke first: "Does Your Highness want my technique of cultivating poisonous weeds?"
"If that's the case, I can send you a few of these techniques to use, and it will save my medicine bills. ”
Naturally, this is said very directly, and it is also because he only has these things on him that are the most valuable.
Xie Hong naturally retorted with an unhappy face: "You see that you are anxious, Your Highness hasn't spoken yet, even if you want it, you still want the demon poison ivy on your body, Your Highness is also your blessing that he didn't take this vine away, what kind of deal are you still doing here?"
This was originally a cover for what he had on his body, he really didn't have anything valuable and useful, otherwise he would have taken it out to make a deal.
Since he was preempted by Xu Le, he would definitely have to stop it, but he couldn't let Xu Le run away and he was here alone, so he would lose a "like-minded" helper.
Xu Bad was naturally furious when he heard Xie Hong's words, because he had wanted to take over the matter of Demon Poison Ivy, but being treated by Xie Hong, a villain, also made him helpless for a while.
Of course, in his heart, he also thought that the reason why Zhao Ze did not take away the demon poison ivy on his body was also because he did not have the correct cultivation method and method of recognizing the master.
If there was, it should have been taken away a long time ago, so now that this matter is mentioned by Xie Hong, then this matter should not be able to run.
The demon poison ivy that he had cultivated with great difficulty was about to change hands, and the taste of this was so uncomfortable.
So he was about to start scolding Xie Hong for being a dog thief, but at this time he was stopped by Zhao Ze.
Zhao Ze said: "Okay, you two can rest assured, I don't want what you have, isn't your storage bag still on you, I haven't touched it, if you want it, you can just take it directly, do you need to explain anything more to the two of you?"
"I want both of you talents, yes, talents! Haven't you realized how valuable your talents are?"
Xie Hong and Xu Bad both shook their heads, although both of them knew that they had some talents, but unfortunately they had never been reused by the sect.
Basically, it's still in the point of miscellaneous.
In fact, according to the talents that the two of them have now, they should have been one of the core disciples a long time ago, Xie Hong can be responsible for the external work, and Xu Le can be specifically responsible for breeding and cultivating poisonous weeds, but the internal struggle of the Five Poison Sect is very strong, and the two of them are basically suppressed and the other is hidden.
In this way, the talents of the two of them were not brought into full play, which led to the feeling that the Five Poison Sect was a little blue and yellow now.
In fact, Maxima needs Bole, and there are no exceptions to this at any time and in any world.
If it weren't for Bole's discovery, no matter how good Maxima was, he could only spend his life in the ordinary world, and he might not be able to get through.
These two people are like this, if there is no help from Zhao Ze, the two should be the result of the same death.
Xie Hong and Xu Bad glanced at each other, Zhao Ze's words actually made the two of them blood boil again, but the two of them are not children anymore, they have heard a lot of such words, and most people only think about how to control them or use them.
So Xu Bad asked at this time: "Does Your Highness also want to control us? We are not slaves! If this is the case, it will disappoint Your Highness." ”
Xu Bad's boldness at this time also reflected his personality, and Xie Hong regretted it, he originally wanted to drag Zhao Ze, but he didn't expect Xu Bad to say what was in his heart directly, which caught him off guard.
Xu Bad naturally wanted to explain at this time, because the knowledge on his body was the most valuable, and if he wanted to enslave him, he would rather commit suicide than become a slave of others.
Zhao Ze laughed and said: "It's very simple for me to make you my slaves, as long as I use some means to control you, why do I need to talk so much nonsense to you?"
"The two of you should have heard of the battle for the throne of the Song Kingdom, right? Although it has subsided now, there are undercurrents surging behind the Song Imperial Court and the Song State Martial Arts, and there are other surrounding countries and organizations involved, so in order to survive well, I naturally have to recruit the first talent, and those brothers of mine have also recruited a lot of talents like you from the rivers and lakes, I can't do too much, right?"
Xie Hong and Xu Bad glanced at each other again after hearing this, because although the two did not participate in the fight for the throne, they still heard a lot of rumors.
Most of these rumors are not good, because the competition for the throne has greatly damaged the vitality of the Song Kingdom, and if it continues like this, these sects will also have to think of other backers.
Xie Hong knew that the Jiang family was already in contact with the surrounding imperial courts of the big powers, which was revealed by Jiang Tao when he was drunk.
So he still knows a little bit about the general situation of the Song Kingdom now, anyway, it's not particularly good.
And Xu Le also learned a little bit from Xu Wei, his adoptive mother had left him some inheritance in a large country around the Song Kingdom, including houses, farmland, and some shops, so that he could flee to where to retire when he was in danger.
At this time, the two of them also began to calm down and carefully figure out Zhao Ze's words, as well as the basic situation of Song Guo.
The conclusion is roughly the same, that is, the Song State will definitely usher in a major war between countries in the next few years, which can no longer be denied.
And these sects of theirs will also be involved, and it is difficult for them to say what position they will stand in to welcome this matter.
Either of them knew that it wasn't his best to stand there, unless they fled or had a safe place to stay.
So the two of them also began to hesitate, because they both knew that this place was a safe refuge, although the conditions were not as prosperous as the capital, but fortunately, there was no interference from superfluous forces, and there were a lot less worries.
Zhao Ze smiled slightly and continued: "Even if you have no place to stay after you go back now, the Jiang family will definitely not let the two of you go, and will definitely try their best to kill both of you, so hiding here for the time being is also the best place for you to stay now." ”
Zhao Ze's words just hit the weakness of the two, and the two were naturally thinking about the Jiang family's problem.
If the two of them go back, they will definitely have to face the pursuit of the Jiang family, whether it is possible to take action in person or hire a murderer.
So both of them were thinking about how to deceive the Jiang family, but in fact, Zhao Ze had already helped them think about it, and they also firmly grasped this opportunity in their own hands.
This is, of course, because the current life and death of the two are unknown, and seeing that the disciples of the Five Poison Sect of the two have all died, unless there is a special method, it must be very troublesome to know the whereabouts of the two.
Zhao Ze saw the contemplation on the faces of the two, which showed that the two of them were already thinking about this problem.
However, both of them are tied to the Five Poison Sect, and the two of them are naturally a little worried about those who are alive.
Zhao Ze naturally saw it, so he said, "I know that both of you are worried people and are still in the Five Poison Sects. ”
"I can arrange this for you, they shouldn't have a problem with their lives for the time being. ”
Since the five princes have all said this, the two of them naturally don't have too many concerns.
However, at this time, Xie Hong suddenly asked a question: "I want to ask, if the two of us don't want to leave here for the sake of service, is it okay?"
Zhao Ze smiled slightly and said, "Naturally, it's okay, but it's ........"
Before Zhao Ze's words were finished, Xie Hong snatched it and continued: "But the news that the two of us are alive will be betrayed to the Jiang family?"
As soon as he said this, Xu Bad and Zhao Ze both looked at him with a surprised expression, Xie Hong was really very good at mastering people's hearts and humanity in terms of planning, otherwise he would not have been favored by the Jiang family to assist Jiang Tao.
It may seem a bit annoying at times, but it's true.
At this time, Zhao Ze naturally laughed, since his thoughts had been recognized, it was just right, and it was not a way to hide like this.
So he opened his mouth and said: "We are all gentlemen before villains, since the two of you are not willing to serve me, then I don't have to be responsible for the safety of your lives, right?"
"Everyone is a smart person, so naturally you have to say ugly things in front, otherwise how can you come out and mess around?"
When Zhao Ze said this, the mustard in the hearts of the two of them actually let go a lot, because people are interest-oriented animals, and it will be more believable to explain things more clearly.
Especially Xie Hong, he now feels that this fifth prince is not simple, and he is not a good wine and lustful guy at all as rumored.
He planned to stay and take a look first, because he really didn't want to go back to a place like the Jiang family.
And Xu Bad is still struggling between the two personalities.
Because of his kind personality, he doesn't like Zhao Ze very much, and he still wants to go back to his home in the Five Poison Sect.
However, the bad character was very interested in Zhao Ze, the prince, and wanted to stay and take a look first, and then the two personalities began to quarrel for a while.
However, generally this important choice is decided by a bad personality, so it didn't take long for the bad side to have a result.
Of course, neither of them replied to Zhao Ze as soon as possible, they must still have a little backbone, otherwise they will be very unhappy if they are looked down upon by this prince.
Zhao Ze also knew that the two of them had their own plans in their hearts, and they didn't let them agree as soon as possible, so they didn't ask questions.
It's just that in the end, let these two people have a good rest, and they can find him when they figure it out.
After that, Zhao Ze left the room.
After leaving, I heard the two people in the room start to communicate.
Of course, this exchange is naturally exchanging opinions with each other, because the two are now grasshoppers on a rope, and they must be united, otherwise what if they are pitted by Zhao Ze?
Zhao Ze felt that this was a good thing, because the two finally put aside their hatred for the time being and started to cooperate.
Zhao Ze was also very patient at this time, because this matter could not be too anxious.
