Chapter 40. The Wise Man (Part I).

Fast. 【】Avoid them!! The owner's injuries are a little too much to support one by one

Seeing the pale face of the Eight Sage Kings and listening to the weak urging of the Eight Sage Kings, Xiao Mo and Zhang Yansheng, who were originally thinking about their own thoughts, were all taken aback.

Especially Xiao Mo, now he is being attached to the body of the Eight Sages King, and his body is already weak, at this time, the Eight Sages King is wearing royal armor in order to face the saint, adding up to nearly two hundred catties of weight, under the heavy pressure, Xiao Mo was almost pressed to the ground before the Eight Sages King fainted.

In fact, thinking about it, when everyone was still answering with Emperor Chu Ling on the crown, the Eight Sages King was already pale, his eyes were closed, and he rarely spoke, Xiao Mo still thought that the Eight Sages King behaved like this at that time, it was just a heartache for the people of the Northland, but now it seems that the medicinal effect of Mi Nandan is probably in the past at that time, and it can last for so long, and the perseverance of the Eight Sages King can be said to be rare in the world.

But now, it is not the time for Xiao Mo to sigh, those officials of the Ministry of Ceremonies who came to arrange for the three people to go to the court to receive rewards, as well as countless Chinese martial arts who intended to curry favor, are about to surround the three people.

Seeing such a scene, Xiao Mo immediately made a decision and said to Zhang Yansheng: "Zijia, you go and stop them, and I will leave with the prince first." ”

Hearing Xiao Mo's command, although Zhang Yansheng nodded yes, his eyes flickered, as if he was considering some kind of gain or loss.

And at this moment, the Eight Sages King suddenly said to Zhang Yansheng: "The matter is urgent, everything will be entrusted to Zijia, if Zijia opens another mansion in the future, this king will personally go to congratulate him."

was supposed to be the Eight Sages King who was extremely weak, although he was still weak at the moment, his eyes were bright and bright, staring at Zhang Yansheng tightly, not letting go of the slightest change in Zhang Yansheng's expression.

As the words of the Eight Sages King fell, Zhang Yansheng's body shook slightly, and then showed a fleeting mysterious smile, and then solemnly assured: "There are subordinate officials here to deal with it, the prince can rest assured that he and Zirou will leave to rest first, and the official will come later." ”

As he spoke, Zhang Yansheng had already turned around and walked towards the gathered officials of the DPRK and China, his eyes were confident, his expression was easy-going, and his smile was cordial.

And when the officials thought of Xiao Mo and the Eight Sages King, they found that the two had already walked away with the support of their respective cronies and retinues, and wanted to pursue them, but they were stopped by Zhang Yansheng for a reason.

,,, heart is small and the heart is small,,, heart is small

Because Xiao Mo and the others had a long conversation with Emperor Chu Ling, when the three of them stepped down from the crown. The inner city of the palace is already towering not far in front of you.

Now the street beneath their feet is called "Pilgrimage Road." It means the road that all the ministers must pass when they go to the pilgrimage every day.

Because of this, although the street is not prosperous, but on both sides of the road, there are many restaurants and teahouses for profit, which are used to entertain the officials of the DPRK and China who come and go back and forth to rest, although the passenger flow is not much, but the taste is elegant, the tea and wine are high-end, the goods are small, and the guests are generous, and the income is quite high.

And Xiao Mo and the Eight Sages King, now with the support of their respective cronies and retinue, entered a nearby restaurant called "Qingyun Pavilion", and the bosses and men all blocked them and entered a private room by themselves, and then they had their own attendants to protect them and prevent idlers from approaching.

The decoration of the private room is elegant, the seats are made of rare mahogany carvings, and the walls are worth thousands of gold in the calligraphy and paintings of famous artists of the previous dynasty, but everyone in the room has no time to appreciate and appreciate because of the injuries on the body of the Eight Sages.

After entering the room, Xiao Mo first helped the Eight Sages King to sit down and rest, and then instructed the Eight Sages King's entourage: "Quickly find a few famous doctors to be the prince."

"No need

Xiao Mo was halfway through his words, but he was already interrupted by the Eight Sages King.

I saw that while the Eight Sages King was talking, he trembled and took out a jade bottle from his arms, opened it and poured out a black pill, opened his mouth and swallowed it.

This black pill is the "Mi Nan Dan" that the Eight Sages King had taken before.

The main ingredient of rice baudans is extracted from opium poppy, although it is mixed with ginseng, He Shou Wu and other great supplements, but in Xiao Mo's opinion. The harm of such a "elixir" to the human body is probably still no less than the drug opium in later generations, so since I knew its existence, I have always stayed away, but in a certain way, its medicinal effect is still very good.

The Eight Sages King, who was already weak and seemed to be going to fall down at any time, after taking the Mi Nang Dan, after taking the Mi Nang Dan, but after a while, his face had already returned to ruddy, not inferior to usual, and the trembling of his body gradually stopped, and all kinds of changes made everyone around him marvel, only to feel that even if it was a fairy elixir, it was nothing more than that.

,,, heart is small and one heart is ,,, heart is small and one heart".

After taking the medicine, the Eight Sages King closed his eyes and breathed, but Xiao Mo stood aside, thinking about the various experiences just now, thoughtful.

Although Xiao Mo has been a human being for two lifetimes, and now he is in the beginning of his power in the DPRK and China, after all, he still has little political experience, and many things seem simple, but in fact they are complicated, and there are countless entanglements of interests, but Xiao Mo is always an afterthought. For example, not long ago, a political transaction was discovered in front of Xiao Mo, but it was not until now, when everything was decided, that Xiao Mo finally cleared his mind and figured it out.

Before, when Emperor Chu Ling talked with Xiao Mo, the Eight Sages King, and Zhang Yansheng, the words faintly revealed the intention of transferring the power of the court to the hands of the Eight Sages King Tian Zheng.

However, although such a decision will shake the government and the opposition, there is a premise, that is, the Eight Sages King must be in good health, no injuries and no pain, otherwise, with the temperament of Emperor Chu Ling, he will definitely strictly order the Eight Sages King to cultivate with peace of mind and postpone his time in power indefinitely. During this period, after Zhang Qian and Wang Han got the news, what kind of changes would occur, but no one could say.

It seems that because of this, the Eight Sages King actually concealed his injuries in front of Emperor Chu Ling.

And Xiao Mo and Zhang Yansheng on the side, although they knew the inside story, they didn't sort out the pros and cons for a while, but they all remained silent and did not debunk it.

And just now, the Eight Sages King's injury recurred, Xiao Mo didn't think much about it for a while, and just asked Zhang Yansheng to go to stop the hundred officials, but Zhang Yansheng hesitated for a moment, presumably thinking about whether to show a flaw in front of the hundred officials and let the world know the news of the Eight Sages King's injury.

After all, once the Eight Sages King took power, the one who was most affected was Zhang Qian, the prime minister. Although Zhang Yansheng gradually had the intention of breaking away from Zhang Qian's control, in the future, Zhang Qian died of old age, and the power of the Prime Minister's Mansion would still be inherited by Zhang Yansheng, so he quietly destroyed the opportunity for the Eight Sages King to enter the dynasty and take power, Zhang Yansheng was still very happy.

However, at this time, the Eight Sages King suddenly said a very inexplicable word to Zhang Yansheng: "In the future, if Zijia opens another mansion, this king will personally go to congratulate him."

At that time, Xiao Mo just felt puzzled, but now that he thinks about it, it is the Eight Sages King who is... Heart" holy prescribe conditions. If Zhang Yansheng was willing to hide his injury for him, then the Eight Sages Factory Qinchuan would open a government and build a government office, and get out of the control of Prime Minister Zhang Qian.

After all, although Zhang Yansheng will inherit Zhang Qian's power and connections sooner or later, in terms of Zhang Qian's physical condition, it will be ten or even twenty years later, Zhang Yansheng may not have the patience to wait for such a long time, and his intention to break away from Zhang Qian's control is not only seen by Xiao Mo, but also by the Eight Sages King.

In the end, Zhang Yansheng accepted the deal proposed by the Eight Sages.

Compared with other political transactions, time was tight at that time, and the meaning of the Eight Sages King's words was already explicit and clear, but Xiao Mo didn't fully understand it until this time, thinking of this, Xiao Mo couldn't help but sigh secretly.

"The background is different, the experience is different, and the ideas are different, compared with people like Zhang Yansheng and the Eight Sages who were born in the official family and the inner courtyard of the palace since childhood, my political experience is really insufficient

…”

Xiao Mo thought about it, but he strengthened his mind to keep his light and cultivate obscurity for a period of time in the future.

On the other side, after resting for a while, the Eight Sages King's complexion finally returned to normal, opened his eyes, and saw Xiao Mo's thoughtful expression, as if he had guessed something, he couldn't help but smile slightly, and waved his hand, but let his cronies and entourage leave the room.

After taking the rice sangdan, and after pranayama for a while, although it was only temporary, the Eight Sages King no longer saw the weak appearance he had just now.

Realizing that the Eight Sages King had something to talk to him secretly, under Xiao Mo's instructions, Deng Shangquan and the others also left quietly and quickly.

For a while, in the room, only the Eight Sages King and Xiao Mo were left.

"Zirou, you and I are old acquaintances, and during this time, we are watching and helping each other, so you don't have to be restrained in front of this king, sit down quickly."

While speaking, the Eight Sages King personally dragged the chair and stool and let Xiao Mo sit beside him.

Seeing that the Eight Sages King had recovered, Xiao Mo breathed a sigh of relief, but he was not polite, and after thanking him, he sat directly beside the Eight Sages King. After Xiao Mo sat down, the Eight Sages King smiled again: "This king was unbearable just now, but it made Zirou smile." ”

Xiao Mo shook his head and said: "The prince is serious, you are hurting for the country, and the lower officials only have respect for the prince, where will you have the mind to read jokes?" ”

The Eight Sages King sighed, shook his head, but changed the topic and said: "Speaking of which, since the king left Beijing, and Zirou had a long talk, it has been more than half a year, now I think about it, the scene at that time is still vivid, although Zirou has not yet entered the court as an official, but the knowledge is already extraordinary, so that the king has benefited a lot, these days, I have always wanted to be alone with Zirou again, open my heart, and talk all night, but I didn't expect it to be realized in such a situation." ”

Xiao Mo still shook his head and said with a smile: "The prince praised it falsely, even if the lower officials have some knowledge, but they just take it for granted, otherwise where would there be today's Huaxia catastrophe?" However, you are the pillar of my Great Chu, and the lower officials also want to talk to the prince for advice, that is. ”

The Eight Sages King scolded with a smile: "Zirou, I remember that you are not yet twenty years old, right? Why are you always so restrained and humble, and you don't see the appearance of a teenager at all? With your current academic status, no matter how humble you are, in the eyes of others, you will become hypocrisy. Young people, should have the self-confidence of teenagers, dare to question, dare to break the old, although they may hit the south wall, but it is easier to fight for a rare achievement in a lifetime, otherwise a lifetime of following the rules, coming to old age, looking back on the year, what is the fun of life? ”

After a pause, the Eight Sages King quipped again: "I think that when the grassland barbarians invaded, the Pingxing Pass was lost, and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were all in charge of a decisive battle with the barbarians, only Zirou said peace talks; When the grassland barbarians are like a bamboo, breaking countless cities in a short period of time, and the court and the middle are all seeking peace, Zi Rou you instead advocate a war" But all kinds of developments afterwards are not as Zi Rou expected, and then reject the enemy under the Shangyuan City, kill countless enemies, force the building is raging, and make great contributions, the Manchu Dynasty is even more dumbfounded, only to feel incredible, ashamed, before and after, although there are twists and turns, but what a happy thing? ”

Although the Eight Sages King was joking, but in Xiao Mo's ears, he always felt that he meant something else, and he couldn't understand it for a while, so he didn't want to answer, but he just smiled and said: "Xiaguan is just impulsive, he has a lot of luck, and he doesn't dare to take credit for what he does, which makes the prince laugh." ”

Seeing Xiao Mo like this, the Eight Sages King showed a trace of disappointment in his eyes, was silent for a moment, sighed again, and said slowly: "Zirou, do you know that since you entered this room, this king has been waiting, waiting for you to ask this king, but I didn't expect you to be so defensive about this king.

Listening to what the Eight Sages King said, Xiao Mo was slightly stunned at first, but in an instant, he understood what the Eight Sages King meant.

After hesitating for a moment, Xiao Mo regained his composure, nodded and said: "Forgive me, the prince forgive me, it was the lower officials who were too careful, but I would like to ask the prince, the reason why you concealed the injury before was just to boost the morale of the people and stabilize the government and the opposition, although you don't want the world to know, but you have already decided to explain to Your Majesty after meeting the saint, why did you suddenly change your mind when you met Your Majesty?" ”

The Eight Sages King seemed to be smiling, and asked rhetorically: "Zirou still has some estrangement in her heart about this king, I'm afraid you want to ask, is the reason why this king concealed his injury because the imperial brother intended to let this king enter the dynasty to take charge, but this king didn't want to give up this rare opportunity because of his injury?" ”

Without waiting for Xiao Mo to answer, the Eight Sages King had already asked and answered himself, and he was even more calm than Xiao Mo: "Zirou, this king is here, and I will say a word to you from the bottom of my heart, it is exactly like this." ”

Seeing that the Eight Sages King was so honest, Xiao Mo was a little at a loss, but after thinking about it, he found that whether Zhang Qian Wang Han was in charge of politics or the Eight Sages King was participating in politics, there was no difference in his next plan.

Even, in many ways, the Eight Sages King divided Zhang Qian's power, which still outweighed the disadvantages for Xiao Mo.

It's just that the Eight Sages King suddenly treated each other so frankly, but it is definitely not explained by a sentence of "appreciating talent and sharing interests", I am afraid there is even a deeper meaning.

Or form an alliance and merge, or recruit and gather. Or maybe it's some other reason that Xiao Mo can't imagine.

Thinking of this, Xiao Mo was even more cautious, but there was a smile on his face, and said: "I see, Lord Wang, you are wise and decisive, have a long-term vision, far beyond the world, and it is a blessing for the world to enter the court and participate in politics. ”

The Eight Sages King laughed and said, "Zirou, you are becoming more and more able to speak, it is obvious that this king is greedy for power, but when you come here, it has become a blessing in the world." ”

Xiao Mo didn't pick up the topic of the Eight Sages King this time, but said: "However, there are many people who know about your injury, but they can't hide it for long, so please make plans early." ”

The Eight Sages King shook his head, but he said something that shocked Xiao Mo incomparably. If you want to know what will happen next, please log in to the muscle chapter for more, support the author, and support genuine reading!
