"Woniuling officials, Ye Xiaotian, meet Lord Futai!" The singing of the newspaper with full of vigor attracted the attention of all the officials in the hall.

"Officer? This Futai Yamen, there has never been such a small official to come to visit, this is Futai, the feudal official, the four heavenly kings are also half a head shorter in front of him! ”

Ye Xiaotian came in, his small chest was high, he looked not ashamed, but proud, when he saw Ye Mengxiong who was sitting tall, he hurriedly walked three steps, and as soon as he lifted his robe, he was about to kneel down to pay respects.

The current level difference between the two is too far, and Ye Mengxiong is not in the study, but chooses to be above the public court, Ye Xiaotian has no choice but to pay a big salute. However, although his visit to the shrine is not slow, he has to freeze every action, just like singing on stage, posing from time to time, waiting for the audience to whistle, applaud, throw a copper coin or something.

Ye Mengxiong saw that this ruffian boy was reluctant to kneel, and couldn't help but smile slightly, what kind of person he was, how could he care about those red tapes, and immediately raised his voice: "Ye is exempt from courtesy!" ”

Ye Xiaotian put his hands on his robe, his knees just bent down, and he straightened up again: "Lord Xie!" ”

Ye Mengxiong stroked his gray beard, glanced at him, and said, "Look!" ”

Hua Qingfeng, who was standing at the head of the case, was slightly startled, and hurriedly turned her head to glance at Ye Mengxiong. Ye Mengxiong was stroking his beard, looking at Ye Xiaotian with a smile, looking from the side, he could only see the soft lines on his always square and serious face, and the fine crow's feet at the corners of his eyes were slightly upturned.

Hua Qingfeng suddenly understood that the meeting of Lord Futai in court was not to give Ye Xiaotian a dismount, but to support him. Although the reception in the small study will seem close, the person received in the small study can be a friend of equal status, a close subordinate, or a lackey under the door.

Lord Futai is telling everyone, in his eyes. This little official of Woniu Mountain already has a very high status, and he can at least be on an equal footing with the Eight Great King Kongs. He is indeed qualified to be on an equal footing with the Eight King Kongs, and the two of the Eight King Kongs have been planted in his hands.

This incident endangered everyone in the other six King Kongs, and the territory of these six King Kongs did not border Ye Xiaotian's forces, so it was not afraid that this man-eating tiger would endanger them. But Ye Xiaotian set an example for other toasts:

After years of development, many Tusi who were no less powerful than the Eight King Kongs or even surpassed the Eight King Kongs suddenly found that the Eight King Kongs, who had always been above them, were just like this, and the decay was already vulnerable, so they were ready to move.

Among them, probably only the Xia family of Hongfeng Lake is better. It's not because the Xia family has a large population, but because the Xia family's territory is too close to Guiyang, and its production methods and lifestyles are the most completely sinicized, so the impact is the least, especially because the Xia family and the An family are very close.

Su Xuntian went to move a chair, Ye Xiaotian thanked him, sat down calmly, saw Hua Qingfeng's complicated gaze, and smiled at him.

Hua Qingfeng sighed secretly. The jealousy in my heart is like a fallen leaf swept up by the autumn wind, blowing away. Jealousy will only arise when a person has developed to the point where you are out of reach. That's something that doesn't even give rise to thoughts of jealousy.

When Ye Xiaotian first arrived in Guiyang, he was only a showman, and he was completely a role of paddling and playing soy sauce, if it weren't for his duel with Gelong in Huaxi. Later, he ridiculed Cui Daru and the scholars in the Qiyun Pavilion, who would know about his existence?

Ye Xiaotian went to Guiyang and provoked vicious battles repeatedly. The ghost cried and howled, and the child stopped crying, but the murderous reputation became far and wide. However, the white-clothed knocking of the four families of Zhan Cao, Zhang and Yang forced the new Futai to conform to public opinion and escort him to the capital for trial.

This third time, Ye Xiaotian has become the lowest-level official among the local officials, but his prestige has been quietly publicized, although he is not as domineering and powerful as the last time, but faintly, he has become a big man at the King Kong level.

Now that there is Lord Futai to build momentum for him, how can Hua Qingfeng still be obsessed, thinking that he can control him with his identity as a staff member of Futai? Ye Xiaotian hadn't made a move yet, just relying on his momentum, he beat him back to his original form and turned into a "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle" again.

Since Ye Mengxiong publicly summoned Ye Xiaotian just to help him build momentum, the content of the discussion was of course dignified and high-sounding. The two of them answered one-on-one, and after talking nonsense for a long time, Ye Mengxiong happily announced: move to the small study and talk freely with Ye Yanmu again.

As soon as the door of the study was closed, all the idlers and others were cut off, and Ye Mengxiong's fake appearance was completely gone. Ye Xiaotian is no longer a respectful and cautious appearance.

He didn't wait for Ye Mengxiong to be polite, so he took a cup of fragrant tea with a faint mist floating from the tea table, took a sip, and said to Ye Mengxiong with a smile: "Uncle of this family, Xiaotian is grateful for his hard work in supporting Xiaotian today." ”

Ye Mengxiong was stunned for a moment, only to understand that the "old man of the family" in his mouth meant himself, and he couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart, he had been an official for so many years, and it was the first time he had seen such a young man. However, what happened to Ye Xiaotian in Beijing, he knew very well, in front of the Son of Heaven, this guy still looked like he was not stingy, how could Ye Mengxiong expect him to follow the rules in front of him.

Ye Mengxiong also took a sip of tea and said to Ye Xiaotian: "You are in Tongren, you are doing a good job." The old man hopes that you can consolidate the existing one, continue to advance westward, gradually infiltrate, and block Yang Yinglong's eastward road. ”

The hawks only told Ye Xiaotian that Yang Yinglong had bad intentions, and the imperial court could not mobilize the people to punish him before his rebellion was revealed, so they hoped to curb his ambitions through blockade and suppression, and turn a sky-high beacon into invisible, but they did not tell Ye Xiaotian their true intentions: to force him to launch it in advance before he was fully prepared. That's what I said.

Ye Xiaotian put down the teacup and said, "Continue to go east, I'm afraid the Tong family will be unhappy." In addition, do adults really believe that by locking Yang Yinglong's four-way door, he will eliminate his ambitions and keep to himself? Instead of forcing him to jump off the wall and take risks? ”

Ye Mengxiong gently wiped the tea, lowered his eyes, and said lightly: "Yang Yinglong is not a stupid person, he should still have the vision to judge the situation." Once he can't do anything, the old man believes that his only choice is to stop fighting, as long as he can't do it in his lifetime, his descendants may not have the ambition and courage of him. The times are changing, and the catastrophe is invisible, which is a great merit. ”

Ye Xiaotian shook his head and cocked Erlang's legs: "Xiaotian doesn't think so. In doing so, the adults are actually leaving the hidden dangers for the future, and since they understand that he has opposing intentions, it is better to take the initiative to attack. If it is said that he can't catch his handle, and it is inconvenient to punish him without teaching, you should lure him to take the initiative to show his feet, so that he can grasp the initiative, and it is not a way to mend the seams. ”

Ye Mengxiong's heart moved when he heard this, Ye Xiaotian's thoughts actually coincided with them. If Ye Xiaotian could understand their overall plan, he would definitely be able to cooperate better with them, so it would be better to ......

As soon as this thought came to mind, it was calmly dispelled by Ye Mengxiong. Ye Xiaotian is also a local official now, and he instigated the imperial court to attack Yang Yinglong, obviously wanting to take advantage of the chaos to annex and expand, obtain a larger territory, and master greater power, which is contrary to the imperial court.

The idea of the Eagle Party was to force Yang Yinglong to raise troops and stir up the rebellion in Guizhou, and the imperial court took the opportunity to send troops, not only to occupy Banzhou in one fell swoop, but also to take advantage of the opportunity of the vitality of the Tusi from all walks of life to solve the problem of the ownership of Guizhou once and for all, and put it directly in the hands of the imperial court. The purpose of the two is not the same, how can it be possible to work closely together?

Ye Mengxiong took a deep breath and said, "Together with the swords and soldiers, the first to bear the brunt are the innocent people!" They are all the people of the court, how can Your Majesty bear to do it? Your pattern, to zoom in a little. ”

Ye Mengxiong twisted his beard and thought for a while, and said, "You can stay in Guiyang, what to do next, the old man will discuss with you in detail." Nowadays, the pattern of Tongren and Shiqian can only be clarified when the Zhanzhang Yang Tong family arrives, otherwise there will always be troubles. ”

Ye Mengxiong pondered for a moment, and then said: "In addition, the judicial power of Shiqian Mansion will be handed over to the Criminal Division, and the officials will be directly sent to be responsible, which is very good!" However, this matter still needs to be fully defended by you, otherwise it will be a tree without roots, a mere formality, and the judicial power will not be able to be gathered. ”

Ye Xiaotian got up and said, "Okay!" That little day stayed in Guiyang, waiting for further instructions from the adults. ”

Ye Mengxiong nodded and said, "You go!" If you have time, you might as well visit Mr. An, his attitude is very important! ”

……

Even if Ye Mengxiong didn't say it, Ye Xiaotian was going to see An Guowei. An Guowei, as the head of the four major families of An Song and Tian Yang, has actual control over Guizhou above Ye Mengxiong, a feudal official. Ye Xiaotian didn't have much contact with him, but every time, he left a deep impression on him.

On the bank of the Nanming River, when he was first examined, he thought that Mr. An was the elder of Xia Yingying's clan, and the second time he was in Tongren, he received a letter from Mr. An to support him to lead the people out of the mountain and turn the official into a local official.

The An family has an in-law relationship with the Zhan family, but in the face of Ye Xiaotian's gradual growth, and even his threat to the Zhan family, Old Man An has never said anything.

Is that really the case?

If so, why did he write a handwritten letter to remind him for a budding Ye Xiaotian? Perhaps, this is the pattern that Ye Mengxiong said, when he reaches the status of Old Man An, his every move and every thought is no longer possible to decide according to personal likes and dislikes and personal feelings.

He stands on a higher place, with the territory as the warp, the tribe as the weft, and every force walking in it is a chess piece in his hand, and he has this qualification. Ye Xiaotian is now a chess piece on this chessboard, whether he wants it or not.

However, although it is not up to Ye Xiaotian to decide whether to be a chess piece or not, no one can control him in which grid to go, so he is qualified to meet this national player, and one day he will jump out of the chessboard and become a chess player!
