Chapter 162 Countermeasures

"Mr. Shao told him his fortune......" Chen Ke sighed in his heart, he couldn't say, I know history. I had to take Shao Yong out to talk about it. As he spoke, he revealed a piece of money in his hand and said: "When Marshal Di Pingnan, Mr. Shao had seen him from afar, and I was by my side at that time. ”

Ouyang Xiu took the money, looked at the seal on it, it was indeed a rare 'Shaw Money', and asked, "What did Mr. Shao say?" ”

"He said that Marshal Di was born with a very good face, but Yintang has a scar, if he doesn't get rid of it, he will have a catastrophe in his life, and he will be in the next natal year." Chen Ke had already thought of his words, and said without blinking: "This calamity is a ghost gate, and only the royal qi of Bianjing can suppress the evil qi in his life." ”

"Di Hanchen is forty-nine ...... this year," Ouyang Xiu's face was uncertain and said, "Mr. Shao really said that?" ”

"The teacher can write a letter to verify it." Chen Ke said calmly. The so-called 'gentleman can deceive the party', how can Ouyang Xiu ask this kind of thing?

Old Ouyang was a little stunned by Chen Ke's words, and he couldn't care about the fish biting the hook. After a while, he said, "What do you mean?" ”

"Marshal Di is the prime minister, and it can only be decided by the official family whether he goes or stays." Chen Ke said in a deep voice: "I'm most afraid that someone will talk about Taizu's example, so I implore the teacher to dispel the concerns of the official family first." ”

"How?"

"It's on three levels." Chen Ke said: "One, if you want to get rid of your own generals just because you are worried, where is the law of the imperial court?" Where is the conscience of heaven? Who else will lead the troops for the Great Song Dynasty in the future? Second, the current military generals are no longer the military generals of the five dynasties, and the current emperor is not the emperor of the five dynasties. In everyone's heart, only the surname Zhao can be the emperor, and there will be no second Taizu. Third, if the official family is still worried about Di Qing, they should let him be this privy envoy. Because the privy envoy did not have any army at his disposal, he could not leave the emperor and his subordinates and mobilize the army alone. What's more, if he himself is in Beijing, once he really does something disobedient, he can be arrested and brought to justice with only a few healthy soldiers. On the other hand, if he is allowed to leave Beijing, first, he has an army in his hands, and second, he is far away from the capital, wouldn't this be the opposite? ”

Ouyang Xiu listened, laughed, looked at Chen Ke and said, "Shu people are eloquent, I am really convinced this time." ”

"Listening to the teacher's words, it seems that you have seen any other Shu people?"

"It's your future father-in-law, Su Xun and Su Mingyun." Ouyang Xiu said with a smile.

Speaking of Su Xunlai, coming to the capital this time is indeed different from usual. Relying on Zhang Fangping's letter of recommendation as a stepping stone, he met Ouyang Xiu, the leader of the literary league, and Ouyang Xiu immediately fell in love with this person and his articles, and recommended them to his old friends, Prime Minister Fu Bi, Prime Minister Han Qi and others.

In a short period of time, Su Xun established contact with the famous ministers in the capital. In Su Xun's opinion, it seems that Feihuang Tengda is just around the corner...... However, contrary to expectations, except for Ouyang Xiu, those top ministers all liked his articles, but did not comment on him.

This made Su Xun extremely disappointed, and he thought repeatedly, could it be that he did something wrong? But those cheers are indeed from the bottom of their hearts, and their fame is getting bigger and bigger, but why don't these people recommend themselves to the emperor?

This is fate! This is what it means that people cannot resist fate. If he had thought of this method when he first came to the capital fifteen years ago, it would not be difficult for him to gain fame, because at that time, it was the Great Song Dynasty that suffered a fiasco in the northwest, and the officials worked hard to break all the stereotypes and bad habits, as long as they were useful ideas, they would have adopted them. However, in the subsequent Qingli New Deal, there is a very important one, called - 'Suppressing luck'!

'Suppressing luck' means that it is not allowed to promote talents beyond the ranks, and the hierarchy has been unbreakable since then. Everyone is part of the system, and everyone has to defend it. If you want to be famous, you can, take the test...... If you want to make an exception, no way.

What's more, Su Laoquan's article was written in a way that surpassed the ancients and was unique at that time, and his thoughts were also the purest Confucianism. But when Confucius and Mencius traveled around the world, did they get any good fruits to eat? Because Confucianism itself has great flaws, it was not perfected in the time of the founders. What's more, a thousand years have passed, how can we use the ideas born in the pre-Qin period to solve the current problems?

So the bigwigs just simply appreciate his magnificent articles, and sneer at his ideas of governing the country, Chen Ke actually understands this truth, but he really can't bear to say it to Su Laoquan...... For a person who is almost fifty, such a reality is too cruel, let him continue to be confused.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Ouyang Xiu is a pure gentleman, as long as you can make him think it makes sense, you don't have to worry about him not carrying the burden. So when he left from him, Chen Ke felt that the big stone in his heart was already about to be half put down.

In fact, he was very sorry in his heart, because of this incident, he was destined to offend a group of top ministers such as Wen Yanbo, but except for Lao Ouyang, Chen Ke really had no one to ask for...... Zhao Zongji is more able to speak in front of the officials, but this kind of question of the top generals going to stay is too sensitive, and the little prince must avoid suspicion.

Even former generals like Liu Hao have to avoid suspicion, lest anyone think that there is a small group here, and things will be complicated.

Ouyang Xiu saw it, and comforted Chen Ke and said: "In my life, I will offend people when I open my mouth, and there are more lice and no more itching, no more than a few." ’

In fact, there is another person, he can also ask for it, but around Di Qing's fate, there is destined to be an extremely fierce battle that lasts too long, and he must preserve his strength...... Now that the battle has not started, how can I come up and play all the hole cards?

On the way back, Chen Ke let the boat dock near Zhulin Nunnery...... The Liu family's house could not be lived, so the whole family moved here. These days, he has to come to change Liu Yue'e every day, and today should be the last time.

Because the old lady had instructed that he could come and go at will before Liu Yue'e recovered from his injury, so Chen Ke went all the way unimpeded and arrived in the guest room in the backyard, where Liu Yue'e was already waiting.

Cutting the silk belt with a light car, Chen Ke looked at the injury carefully, and said with a smile: "Finally grow good meat." ”

Liu Yue'e nodded, she didn't speak, since she was injured, she seemed to be a different person, she didn't go out of the door, she didn't talk much all day, and she meditated and breathed every day without white or black. The family thought that she was trying to heal as soon as possible, but Chen Ke clearly felt that although the injuries on the girl's body were healed, the wounds in her heart were difficult to heal in a short time.

Chen Ke knew that the psychological trauma she suffered came from two aspects, one was Xiaohuan's death, which could not be erased with a few words. One is that she quits the marriage, two completely different things, but they lead to the same consequences, that is, she deeply doubts herself, has she been wrong in the past 18 years......

On the former side, Chen Ke can continue to enlighten, but on the other hand, every time he appears, it will deepen the damage to her. This made Chen Ke very sorry, and always wanted to try his best to compensate her for some ...... Taking out a delicate pink porcelain bottle from the medicine box, he handed it to Liu Yue'e as if offering a treasure, and said with a smile: "What do you guess this is?" ”

It took a while for Liu Yue'e to come back to her senses, shook her head, and continued to be distracted.

"This is a bottle of jade cream for the palace that I have worked hard to get." Chen Ke smiled: "Have you heard of this thing?" ”

Liu Yue'e shook her head.

"Yang Jingzong, have you always seen it?" Chen Ke said with a smile.

Liu Yue'e nodded, mentioning that uncle, no one in the capital knows, no one knows, this person is the uncle and younger brother of the Empress Dowager Zhang Hui, who was a scoundrel in Beijing when he was young, and was stabbed by a black face because of a crime, and later recognized the sister who became the empress dowager, and suddenly soared and became a tyrant in Beijing.

I don't know why Chen Ke suddenly mentioned that layman, Liu Yue'e looked at him inquiringly.

Chen Ke pointed to his cheeks; "Look at his skin here, is there anything abnormal?"

"No, ......," Liu Yue'e shook her head.

"He was blackened back then, but now he can't see it at all, his skin is as smooth as ever, and it is the credit of this imperial medicine." Chen Ke said with a smile: "When Marshal Di triumphed, the official family gave him a bottle of this, although Marshal Di was useless, but the official family did not take it back, let him change his mind at any time, and use it at any time." ”

"It seems to be very expensive...... "Liu Yue'e is a woman after all, no matter how low she is, she can't resist it, and the elixir that can erase the scars on her body.

"It's not expensive, it's mainly this medicine that can help soldiers and prisoners escape, so it is strictly controlled by the palace, and only after the will of the official family can you get a dose." Chen Ke smiled and handed it to her and said, "Use it once a day in the morning and evening to see how it works." ”

Liu Yue'e gently held the small porcelain vase and whispered, "Thank you......"

"You're welcome." Chen Ke smiled and said, "There is nothing else, I won't come tomorrow." ”

"......" Liu Yue'e stagnated slightly, nodded and said, "During this time, I'm sorry for you." ”

"Don't be so polite to me, I'm really not used to it." Chen Ke got up with a smile and said, "I'll go first." ”

Liu Yue'e stood up and said, "You wait." After saying that, she returned to her boudoir, and after a while, she came back with a red envelope, handed it to Chen Ke and said, "Your Geng post ......"

"Oh?" Seeing that the begging Geng Ti was right in front of him, Chen Ke was not excited at all, and said, "Why is it in your hands?" ”

"I stole it out while there was chaos at home." Liu Yue'e smiled with a pale face: "From now on, we have nothing to do with each other, and you don't have to pay attention to my grandfather's request." ”

"Promises are not on paper, they are in the heart." Chen Ke shook his head, didn't answer the Geng post and said, "Since I promised Grandfather Ling, I will definitely do it." ”

"How can you do it......" Liu Yue'e shook her head and said, "It's too unrealistic." ”

"What if I could?" Chen Ke laughed, looked at Liu Yue'e and said, "How about we make a bet?" ”

Liu Yue'e shook her head, indicating that she was not interested.

"Bet on it." Chen Ke smiled: "I won, I can ask you to do one thing, if you win, so it will be decided!" After saying that, he waved his hand and strode away.

Looking at his back as he left freely, Liu Yue'e did not move for a long time, stunned.
