After being silent for a long time, Father Xia finally spoke: "You kid, you have good skills, Uncle Li is such a noble person, and you have a little trick, and you will beat him to the ground!" ”

Ye Xiaotian owed him a debt, and said humbly: "Lord Yuezhang has won the prize, the kid just played a game of beast chess, like lions, tigers, leopards, wolves, dogs, cats and mice, eating big and small, eating big snacks, that's all." Uncle Guo has many scruples and more constraints, so he has to retreat in the face of difficulties, but it is not how Xiaotian is capable. ”

Daddy Xia slapped the table heavily and said angrily, "Am I praising you, huh?" He gasped twice, leaned back in his chair, and said in a deep voice: "Say, what conditions do you need to let Yingying go?" ”

Ye Xiaotian frowned and said, "Lord Yue, Yingying and I really love each other. ”

Father Xia said contemptuously: "Promotion? Within 20 years, the old man will ensure that you will be promoted to the fifth grade, how about it? ”

Ye Xiaotian said: "Lord Yue, Yingying and I really love each other. ”

Daddy Xia frowned and said, "Want to get rich? My Xia family has four gold sand mines, it's a big deal...... The old man will give you one, with this gold sand mine, you can be guaranteed to have no worries for a hundred years! As soon as these words came out, the faces of the samurai standing next to him couldn't help but change.

Ye Xiaotian said: "Lord Yue, Yingying and I really love each other. ”

Father Xia closed his eyes, opened them again, and said, "Beauty? How about the old man send you 300 beautiful girls under the age of sixteen? ”

Ye Xiaotian said very sincerely: "Master Yue, Yingying and I really love each other. ”

Father Xia stood up and was full of anger, and Ye Xiaotian also stood up and looked at him without showing weakness. Father Xia thought about it, sat down slowly, and said, "The old man forgot, you are a Venerable One." If you're greedy for power, money, and beauty, these things are at your fingertips. ”

Daddy Xia paused. And he said, "Do you really like my daughter?" ”

Ye Xiaotian nodded vigorously and said, "Yes!" ”

Father Xia said: "So, can you bear to hurt her?" You only have twenty years of earthly fate, and now it is less than twenty years, and Yingying is still very young at that time, can you bear to let her live alone? ”

Ye Xiaotian also stood up strictly, and no longer spoke to him in a frivolous tone, Ye Xiaotian said solemnly: "Uncle, I know it too." This is unfair to Yingying. At first, I thought she was a poor girl, thinking that I could compensate for her rich life......"

Ye Xiaotian looked at Father Xia and said, "Later, of course I knew her true identity. But if you like someone, it's not like getting a thing, saying that you can put it down. Uncle, Yingying and I both genuinely like each other, and she is also clear about my Venerable status. ”

Father Xia said coldly: "So." You take advantage of her affection for you, preferring to sacrifice her happiness? ”

Ye Xiaotian said: "No! I'm going to talk to the elders and change the rules that have been around for thousands of years. ”

Daddy Xia said, "Is it possible?" The rules passed down from the ancestors are so easy to change? Those old guys squatting in the mountains. All the heads have turned into elm bumps, and they will agree? ”

Ye Xiaotian said: "Uncle, the juniors haven't talked to them about this yet. In order to force them to make concessions, the younger generation has already tried a lot of effort. The younger generation also knows that it is difficult to get them to take another step back. This is also the reason why the younger generation wants to gain a foothold in officialdom. The younger generation wants to be an official and a big official, not only to glorify the ancestors, but also to ...... As long as I have enough power, the elders can't help but face up to my thoughts. ”

It is people who set the rules, and of course they can also be changed by people. But not everyone is qualified to change the rules, unless you have a lot of power, and you can negotiate on an equal footing.

If Ye Xiaotian had stayed in the Gu Sect, then no matter how much power he had, it would be impossible for him to overturn the rules of the Gu Sect inheritance, because his power came from the Gu Sect, even if a strong man had the power to shake the mountain, how could he carry his hair and pick up himself who was only one hundred and ten catties?

If Ye Xiaotian wants to have a greater impact on the Gu Sect elders, then he can only master the external force, if this external force is so big that it cannot be ignored by the Gu Sect elders, once it is combined, it can have a heavy impact on the Gu Sect, then it is not impossible for Ye Xiaotian to force the elders to take another step back.

However, for a powerful force that is resting on its laurels and transcending the world, how great is it to have an impact on them? Is a little history possible? Even a soil emperor like the Governor of Tongren Zhang is not enough, unless he is a figure of the level of the Eight Great Tusi King Kong in Guizhou.

Of course, the Xia family was one of the Eight King Kongs, and if they couldn't separate Yingying and Ye Xiaotian, it seemed that they could only stand on Ye Xiaotian's side and help him put pressure on the Gu Sect to force the elders to make concessions. But the strength of the Xia family is not Ye Xiaotian's strength after all, although Father Xia loves his daughter, it is impossible to trade the interests of the entire Xia family, so the influence of this force will inevitably be greatly reduced.

Father Xia looked at Ye Xiaotian and said disdainfully: "What a big breath!" You are just a little history, do you think you are the political envoy of Guizhou? Do you think you'll be able to rise to that big one day? ”

Ye Xiaotian asked rhetorically: "Why not, I have unique resources, and I also have no shortage of wisdom and ability!" It's just that I'm in Baoshan, and I didn't know how to use it before. ”

When Ye Xiaotian said this, he suddenly looked at the warriors standing on the left and right, Father Xia understood what he meant, these people were his henchmen, and he was not afraid to let them hear anything, but he still waved his hand and let these people withdraw.

After these people all withdrew from the hall, Ye Xiaotian said: "Uncle, in fact, the younger generation's plan has always been very simple. Twenty years of dust, be a good official, marry a beloved wife, and have a few lovely children, but unfortunately God does not allow me to be so carefree.

I just want to be an official, a calm-hearted official, boil to the seventh grade, at most the sixth grade, the glorious lintel is enough, and I don't want to fight with people for anything, let alone step on people to climb up, but others can't tolerate me. This time, I went to Jinling to wait for participation, but it was my luck to be able to have no danger, but what about next time?

I don't necessarily have luck every time, and if it weren't for the great changes in the imperial court this time, I wouldn't necessarily be killed. Maybe Xu Xiancheng is right, as long as you walk on this road, you can only work hard to climb up, if you don't step on others, you can only be stepped on by others. That being the case. I'm going to step on people too! The Gu Sect has great power, and I didn't want to have too much to do with them in the past twenty years, so I didn't think about using it, but now I have changed my mind. If I could invoke the power of the Gu Sect as a backing, then where would I go in the officialdom? ”

Ye Xiaotian's eyes were burning, at this moment, he had really changed, he was no longer the Ye Xiaotian who went with the flow, Ye Xiaotian who was rich and peaceful, and Ye Xiaotian who had a wife and children who were hot on the kang. There was a glint of ambition in his eyes, and he began to know how to use the resources at his disposal.

If you want to be promoted, you need a background, backers and connections, and this qiē is inseparable from the power of money. But who can have such power as a newcomer? Either he needs the family to help him pave the way, or he develops his wings by taking refuge in a strong party, but Ye Xiaotian has an innate advantage in this regard.

If he is willing to manage with his heart, with his strength, he is enough to make friends with powerful people. Qi Jiguang in order to avoid constraints and restraints. To ensure that he is well-armed and has control over the army, he needs to make friends with big names like Zhang Juzheng.

In order for Zhang Juzheng to be able to implement his policies and show his life's ambitions, he needs to make friends with a great eunuch in the inner palace like Feng Bao. All need money to pave the way. Ye Xiaotian has an inexhaustible mountain of gold, and if he wants to do this, he will have one less long-term accumulation process than those who stand on the same starting line.

Money paves the way, you can get to know those big guys. But if you want people to appreciate you and think that you can cultivate, of course, these alone are not enough. This is just a stepping stone, the master leads the door, the cultivation is personal, if you really want those big people to appreciate you and cultivate you, you must have enough wisdom and ability, and in this regard, Ye Xiaotian is also not lacking.

Does he have no wisdom and power? He turned Huxian upside down, he killed Qi Mu, the soil emperor of Huxian, and he was not even a real official at that time! He was able to be used by Li Jiao in Tongren and appreciated by Governor Zhang, which was not without luck, but luck only helped him choose a suitable time, a suitable place, and meet a suitable person.

But was Tongren Mansion deserted at that time? Can Li Jiaoyu only choose Ye Xiaotian? Of course not, he chose Ye Xiaotian because he felt that Ye Xiaotian met his requirements, this was not luck, but ability, didn't Sect Li think about other candidates before? It's just that others can't meet his requirements. He saw Ye Xiaotian's calligraphy, which was not inferior to a famous master, and the consideration of Ye Xiaotian's knowledge when talking to him made him determine Ye Xiaotian's goal, which was Ye Xiaotian's ability.

Zhang Yi Zhang Zhifu is moody, usually just a big fat man who looks completely harmless, but if anyone makes him unhappy, on his ground, he can make the other party's bones disappear when he flips his hand, such a tyrant, but he favors Ye Xiaotian, and that is also Ye Xiaotian's ability. Ye Xiaotian has seen a lot of big people, he understands the psychology of this kind of person very well, and knows how to cater to this kind of big person, and if he goes to another person at that time, he is likely to tremble, and he can't arouse Zhang Yi's interest at all.

This is especially the case when he was in Guiyang Mansion, the traps from Xie Chuanfeng, Xue Mu, Li Qiuchi or Xu Boyi, and the challenges from Guoji Gelong, if he didn't have enough wit and adaptability, how could he save the day one by one? Luck provided him with an opportunity, and it was his wisdom, courage and ability that he seized it.

Besides, isn't luck an indispensable and important factor for everyone's successful people? Those who have risen step by step and achieved success, looking at what they have done in their lives, how can they be separated from the luck and opportunities that are difficult for the world to explain? The same opportunity is in front of you, can you seize it? When the opportunity arises, some people don't even realize it, but they just complain.

Take Qi Jiguang as an example, even if he uses soldiers like a god, if it weren't for the rebellion of the Japanese and the wouldn't have been in turmoil, if he had grown up in a peaceful and prosperous era, he would have just been unknown to everyone, how could he establish a brilliant career? God provided him with a stage to play when he was growing up, and this was his luck, and this luck was available to everyone, some people caught it, and some people missed it.

Ye Xiaotian ascended to the throne of the Venerable, the same is true, he didn't sit there, God sent the inheritance of the Venerable to him, he was all the way through nine deaths, and all kinds of opportunities came together, which created his status.

What if the person who swung the knife at the time to face the millennium insect and fell to the ground was Zhan Ning'er? Even the previous Bai Xiaoxiao didn't choose to assassinate him? Every step of the choice is a part of the road of life, someone has chosen the wrong road, someone has embarked on a dead end, he can go to the end, it is not just a matter of luck to explain.

Ye Xiaotian was no longer confused, although he was sent to Jinling to wait for ginseng, he got a result that was almost child's play, but the terrible consequences that this incident could cause made him wake up, when he was determined to use the strength he had at his disposal to try to climb up, how far could he go?

Perhaps, when he met the children of those eunuchs in Jinling and stood with them without hesitation, he had this kind of long-term consideration. Think about it, he offended the relatives represented by his uncle, and disdained the meritorious forces represented by Wei Guogong, but chose a relatively thin official power, is it really just due to circumstances?

In this small circle, the relatively thin force is the officialdom represented by Zhang Hongchou and others whom he acquainted, but in the entire Ming Dynasty, the most powerful is not only above relatives and heroes, but even above the imperial power, but it is the civilian power. If Ye Xiaotian did this consciously, then how deep was his scheming and gaze?

As the head of a clan, Daddy Xia's mind is by no means as rough as his appearance, and at this moment, his mind is full of twists, and the more he thinks about it, the more frightened he becomes. However, even if he had so many resources at his disposal, when he really came to this day, I am afraid it would take thirty or fifty years, how could he fail halfway?

Father Xia's expression was changeable, Ye Xiaotian saw it in his eyes, Ye Xiaotian said: "Uncle, in the next few decades, who can ensure that everything is in his control?" In terms of wisdom and martial arts, who can compare to the First Emperor, but he can't even grasp the things behind him. Why don't you and I make a bet, three years, if within three years, my little canon can be promoted to the sixth grade, you will marry my daughter to me, how about it? At that time, Yingying was not yet twenty years old, and she didn't think it would delay her future. ”

Three years? Six products! Daddy Xia's eyeballs almost didn't fall out.

This is a rampant statement to the extreme, Ye Xiaotian is now a classic history that does not enter the stream, the upper level is from the ninth grade, and from the sixth grade to the sixth grade, it will be promoted to eight levels in a row, even if it is vague, if it is promoted from the sixth grade, it is also a seventh level in a row, which is equivalent to a level upgrade in less than five months, which is simply impossible.

Father Xia proposed that if Ye Xiaotian gave up Yingying, he would fully support Ye Xiaotian to mix in officialdom with the resources at the disposal of the Xia family, but he only cautiously said that it would take twenty years to go from the fifth grade, while Ye Xiaotian himself proposed that he would be promoted to the sixth grade within three years.

Father Xia looked at Ye Xiaotian suspiciously: "This kid, don't retreat in the face of difficulties, you're looking for steps for yourself, right?" ”
