sent away Zhu Youzhen and Sun Chengzong. The third girl and Ao Bai went back to the house together, and Hai Lanzhu was curious: "Do you really trust that Wei Zhongxian?" ”

Ao Bai said softly: "I won't completely believe it, there are Wei Zhongxian's people in the family of He Mansion, and he knows the situation here well." What I say will definitely reach his ears.

No one likes the feeling of being watched, and when he heard that there was someone sent by Wei Zhongxian at home, Yao Qianyu hurriedly said: "Then I'll go and tell my grandfather quietly now and arrest that Nei Ying?" ”

Ao Bai took her hand, sat her down, and said with a smile: "I don't think there is any need to find out at all, it's good to keep this person to pass the word." ”

Phoenix asked softly, "Everyone says that Wei Zhongxian is a bad person, why do you still want to cooperate with him?" And why does he take such a fancy to you? ”

If he is a good person and never steps down, I will not mess with him. I just like bad guys like him. Ao Bai smiled and said: "Because he has a request for me, I know that you are curious, and this matter cannot be known to others, especially the Donglin Party." ”

Yao Qianyu frowned and said, "What the hell is going on?" Grandpa can't know either? ”

Ao Bai said lightly: "The fewer people who know, the better, and this matter cannot be spread outside." Wei Zhongxian values me because he needs me to say good things for him. The person he really valued was the king of faith. ”

Yao Qianyu was puzzled: "Why? Isn't the king of faith without real power? ”

Ao Bai sighed and said: "I heard that the emperor's health has not been good, in case something happens one day, King Xin is the most likely person to succeed to the throne." Wei Zhongxian needs to be just in case, and I happened to have a good conversation with King Xin. In terms of the Donglin Party, Master Sun is also very influential, and I am caught in the middle, and I can speak for people on both sides, which also plays a balancing role. ”

Hai Lanzhu asked: "Is it a good thing that you don't have an official position, and you are sandwiched between these big people?" ”

Ao Bai said with a smile: "Wei Zhongxian's power is very large, and all the ministries of the imperial court have his people, and I have a good relationship with him now, and there are many benefits." It would be better if he could listen to my blows to Jin Shang. Believe me, at most a year, the husband will become an important minister of the court. ”

He didn't talk nonsense. As long as Ming Xizong dies and Zhu Youzhen succeeds to the throne, he will at least be a Taifu. No real power is also a genuine product. The limelight overshadowed Sun Chengzong all of a sudden. After today's debate, in Zhu Youzhen's heart, he must also know how to govern the country and fight wars better than Sun Chengzong.

Yao Qianyu looked at him and couldn't figure it out. The people of this era have a strong national concept and pay attention to integrity, so far, there have not been a few traitors in the Jurchens, but Ao Bai seems to have completely regarded himself as a Han and began to look at the problem from the perspective of the Ming Dynasty. She hesitated for a moment, but couldn't help but ask, "Do you really think of yourself as a Han and think about Da Ming?" ”

Ao Bai could guess her thoughts, and Zhengse said: "Do you doubt that I have discussed with others, and as a big official here, I should cooperate with the outside world in the future to help the Jin State overthrow the Ming Dynasty?" I can swear to heaven that I will never stand on the side of the Jurchens again, and if I disobey, I will die without a place to be buried. ”

Hearing him swear poisonously, Yao Qianyu hurriedly said, "Why are you swearing poison?" I...... I was wrong, I shouldn't have doubted you...... Whatever you do, I'll follow you. ”

It doesn't matter if you swear, Huang Taiji is a ball? I'm selfish, and I do all this for myself. Now that I have a new identity, I am now Han. Only by being Han can we convince the Han people in the future. As long as Yao Qianyu doesn't betray me, who can come out to test my DNA these days?

Ao Bai hugged Yao Qianyu and said lightly: "I have already made up my mind, I will definitely not break my oath, and it doesn't matter if I swear poison." I just do things according to my own preferences, and if I hate Huang Taiji, I want to make him look good. The behavior of the Eight Banners and bandits was originally wrong, and I am very happy to be a part of the Han people. I just want to defend this country now, if the development of the Jin State is not restricted to a certain extent, the Eight Banners Army will endlessly attack the hinterland of the Ming Dynasty, once they hit the Central Plains, they will definitely do a lot of hurtful things, so they must attack the Jin merchants. ”

Yao Qianyu said lightly: "I don't think Wei Zhongxian will listen to you." In the past few years, he has controlled the government and harmed so many people, how can he get better because of a few words from you? ”

Ao Bai smiled confidently and said, "He will listen to me, you just wait and see." ”

Ao Bai didn't expect Wei Zhongxian to get better at all. Greedy people will cooperate as long as they see benefits. And this is also in line with his future plans.

Hai Lanzhu suddenly remembered another thing and asked, "Have you seen that Su Meng'er today?" Did she say anything to you? "She likes to be jealous the most, because she doesn't want to be jealous again.

Ao Bai hurriedly explained: "I didn't see it, what I saw was Wei Zhongxian's righteous son, named Liang Bin." This person's kung fu is good, but it is said that Su Meng'er is better than him...... That's a horrible woman, so I don't want to have anything to do with her. ”

Hai Lanzhu hugged the phoenix and said with a smile: "Don't you like the woman who knows kung fu the most?" ”

The phoenix didn't make me feel threatened, but I felt a little chill on my back at Su Meng'er, and I felt different. Phoenix practiced kung fu in order to protect himself, and he didn't even bring a weapon. Su Meng'er's kung fu must be used for killing. Ao Bai shook his head and sighed, "Then do you want me to swear again?" ”

The three girls said in unison: "Don't swear anymore!" ”

After chatting for a while, Yao Qianyu and Phoenix went back to the house, one of them had not yet passed the door, and the other was going to be confinement, only Hai Lanzhu was left to accompany Aobai, and the two had a passion again......

Early the next morning, Ao Bai took the three daughters to Zhu Youzhen's house to be a guest. The location of the Xinwangfu is easy to find, almost the Wangfujing area of later generations. The palace is very beautiful, with a kind of aristocratic style, which is not comparable to Hefu. Zhu Youzhen was very happy to see them, introduced the princess Zhou to them, and then changed into practice clothes with Ao Bai and entered the courtyard where the guards practiced martial arts.

The guards in the prince's mansion all have kung fu. Jiading is actually a private army, and its combat effectiveness is stronger than that of many regular armies. Ao Bai also had itchy hands and had a discussion with them. The strongest person under Zhu Youzhen was also easily defeated by Aobai.

After the fight, Ao Bai took the three-stone bow in the house and demonstrated his accurate archery skills, and everyone admired it.

Zhu Youzhen said excitedly: "I don't think those generals in the army can compare with you." Are you too powerful to really not join the army? ”

Ao Bai smiled: "If you don't go, if you have a lot of kung fu, you may not have to go to the battlefield, there are many other meaningful things to do." I'm used to being free, and I'm a pro again, and the life of the army is too boring, and I can't stand it. Didn't I tell the reason? Fighting mainly depends on soldiers, and I can't change the overall situation even if I go to the Liaodong battlefield. ”

Zhu Youzhen nodded yes, looking like whatever you say.

Ao Bai taught Zhu Youzhen the basics of Xingyi Fist, and let him practice Qi Sense first, and then he could move on to the next step. The guards also practiced very energetically. Zhu Youzhen knew that this set of kung fu was magical, so he was extra attentive. However, his qualifications are average, and it is absolutely impossible to become a military general on the battlefield. Ming Xizong Zhu Youxiao is weak, and Zhu Youjian's physique is not much stronger, a typical little white face.

In the afternoon, a eunuch in the palace, Gonggong Liu, arrived at the palace of King Xin and reported that Wei Zhongxian had invited Ao to the palace for a while. Zhu You sighed: "You are really busy, Grandpa Wei came to you again today." ”

Ao Bai said: "This is a good sign, which proves that he really has the heart to take care of the affairs of Jin Shang, otherwise he would not be so active." I'll go there, you stand in the three-body pose every day, and you can practice the sense of qi. When you practice it, I can teach you the moves, otherwise your hands and feet are not hard enough, and you will hurt your body. ”

"Well, I know that practice doesn't happen overnight." Zhu Youzhen nodded.

Ao Bai went into the house to wash his hands, changed into formal clothes, and said to the ladies: "I want to go to the palace, you have had enough fun, go back, and see you at home in the evening." ”

Out of the palace of the king of letters, Ao Bai got into the carriage to pick him up, and rushed forward, through the streets and alleys, going deeper and deeper, and after a while, he had arrived at the main gate of the palace.

Through the car window, looking at the high city walls standing tough, the sabers and guns of the Praetorian Guards are bright, the precautions are very strict, and the imperial palace that Huang Taiji has not been able to enter until he dies, he easily entered, and his heart was a little excited.

The carriage came to a halt at the edge of the forbidden wall, where the two entered on foot. The two teams of neatly dressed officers and soldiers, with tiger eyes swept straight away, standing majestically on both sides, and their momentum was very majestic. Ao Bai sighed in his heart, the palace is really extraordinary, this is only the entrance to the outer city, it is already so guarded, so what is the inner city of the palace?

Compared to the outer city, the inner city is much quieter. The surrounding scenery is beautiful, and there is no killing atmosphere, everything seems very peaceful. I met many palace maids and eunuchs along the way.

Ao Bai originally wanted to give Liu Gonggong some benefits. took out the silver ticket, Gonggong Liu hurriedly excused himself, said that he didn't dare to accept anything, and said: "Huang Gongzi, don't be kidding, you are a celebrity valued by Gonggong Wei, how dare I accept this benefit?" It's my pleasure to serve you. ”

"Then thank you Grandpa Liu." Ao Bai smiled. Although the eunuchs seem to be submissive and hypocritical, they often feel quite comfortable to hear people speak in such a low voice. It is not unreasonable that the emperor likes to reuse eunuchs.

He met Wei Zhongxian in a spacious room. Gonggong Liu resigned softly.

Wei Zhongxian asked everyone else to go down as well, closed the door, put on a posture of wanting to talk secretly, and said with a smile: "Huang Peng, you can talk to our family about the matter of Jin Shang now." ”

Ao Bai arched his hand and smiled: "Nine thousand years old is really powerful and well-informed. Admire under it. ”

Wei Zhongxian patted him on the back, with an intimate attitude. "Don't be poor boy, you already knew that there were people from me in Hefu, and deliberately asked him to bring a letter to me. You seem to be very confident that I will listen to you to persuade the emperor to attack the Jin merchants? ”

Ao Bai approached and said lightly: "I am very confident, this matter is of great benefit to the nine thousand years old, can you do it willingly?" ”

"Then let's see, what is the benefit!"

The two of them, each with a ghost, laughed together.
