Fang Jishi stood outside the study and waited for Lao Tzu to come out, but it turned out that he waited until after noon, and there was no news at all.

Because he gave up the idea of "coercing the Son of Heaven to order the princes", Fang Jishi stood straight to the side, motionless, just like a soldier standing guard.

When the little eunuch saw it, he was puzzled at first, and then couldn't help but admire.

Look at that way people stand! How handsome!

It's just handsome!

Seeing that Fang Jishi was a dignified protector general, he was as dedicated as the guard, and he couldn't help but accept it from his heart.

In the study, Zhou Tianzi and Lao Tzu finished talking about business, and were talking about burning and backing up ancient books.

Zhou Jingwang said: "Can't you burn some commonly used books out*** as said!" Just like last time, burn those books that sell well and use them for profit. And then! Then burn the ancient books that need to be preserved. Such! Isn't it flat? Where can you lose money? ”

Lao Tzu smiled bitterly: "The point is that the price they offer is too outrageous, how many good books does Li Er have to burn to make a profit, and then burn those ancient books that are difficult to sell and those that cannot be sold at all?" Li Er just wants to preserve those precious ancient books! Li Er really doesn't have the idea of making a fortune and making a lot of money! Lord! ”

"What do you think? Some ancient books are still needed! It's hard to sell, but! If you can sell it, you will definitely be able to sell it for a good price! People who know the goods know that it is a lonely book, and they are willing to spend a lot of money to buy it! ”

"There are so few people who know the goods like this! Lord! Lao Tzu sighed. It may be rare to meet one for decades, where does Lear have so much capital to invest in it? How much capital does that have to be pressed? Lord! Furthermore! In this troubled world, how many people with such insight can survive? ”

Zhou Jingwang spread his hands again and said, "There is no way for a widow!" Those ministers are unanimously opposed, what can the widows do? The price is low and people can press it again, but it can't be pressed much? Press half and you're going to the sky! Lear! It's not that the widow doesn't help you, and it's not that the widow doesn't have this vision. But! Those ministers just think that you are profitable to do this, so they keep raising the price, and they still think! This can bring some profit to the big week......"

"Whoever thinks so, let whoever do it well!" Lao Tzu interrupted angrily.

King Zhou Jing paused and said, "The widow also said the same to them, but they? They said they meant it too. This, this, this? Do not say! Let's eat! ”

When the eunuch heard that the Son of Heaven was going to eat, he hurriedly ran in.

"Prepare the wine and food, and the widow will drink with Li Er!"

"Back to the Lord! It was already past lunch time, and the imperial chef did not prepare wine and food for the great master. ”

"Hurry up and prepare? The widow is not hungry! No hurry! Zhou Jingchao waved his arm at the eunuch and said.

"Back! Lord! Lear went back and did not accompany the master. Li Er promised the Dharma Protector General, drink with him at noon, and sleep peacefully in the afternoon......"

"Widows?" King Zhou Jing interrupted. He wanted to say: The face of the Dharma Protector General is greater than that of a widow? But I still didn't say it when I thought about it.

"Back to the Lord!" Lao Tzu hurriedly left his seat, knelt in front of King Zhou Jing, kowtowed and said, "The Dharma Protector General came with Li Er, and he was waiting outside the door." Li Er and he didn't sleep for two days and two nights, so! I made an appointment to drink together at noon and sleep together in the afternoon......"

"He? He? He's outside the door? He? He? He didn't sleep either? ”

"Back to the Lord! The Dharma Protector has always been with Li Er! ”

"Hurry, hurry! Let him in too! Eat and drink together at the widow's place! After eating, I slept in the widow's study! Zhou Jingwang said anxiously.

The little eunuch trotted out and told Fang Jishi to go in.

"The Lord has declared you in!" Then he lowered his voice and continued, "The Lord has let you eat together!" ”

For the little eunuch, who can get the favor of the Son of Heaven like this, it is a great thing. Although he is a poor son of heaven, he is the son of heaven after all? No matter how big the land of the princes is, they still have to come to pay tribute every year, and they have to ask the Son of Heaven to stamp the jade seal. Without the jade seal of the Son of Heaven, they didn't bother to pay attention to the other princes.

Fang Jishi tidied up his clothes and followed the little eunuch into the study. came to King Zhou Jing, knelt down and kowtowed.

King Zhou Jing pretended to shout: "Hurry up!" Get up! Sit! Offer tea! ”

At the same time that Fang Jishi entered the study, the die-hard guards who secretly protected King Zhou Jing were all in place. The bows and arrows in his hands were aimed at him, and they could explode at any moment. The guards of the manipulating mechanism are also on standby.

On the surface, everything is normal.

Only Lao Tzu knows that behind the surface of King Zhou Jing, he is still guarding against anyone, including his princes.

If his prince dared to attack him, his diehard loyalists would do the same. It is their duty to protect their masters, and no one is allowed to infringe on them.

Unless! In the palace of the queen and other concubines, they don't have that ability.

The other prisoners had already prepared tables and seats, the prisoners serving tea were busy offering tea, and the prisoners serving fruits and snacks were busy serving fruits and snacks, and they were all very busy.

Fang Jishi sat down, showing a sincere and fearful look.

"Lear! The widow will punish you! King Zhou Jing pretended to be serious and said solemnly: "The general is here, how can you let him wait outside?" ”

"Your Majesty is guilty! May he be chastened! ”

King Zhou Jing turned his face aside angrily and said, "You? Lear! You make the widow angry! You? Widow this is not? Didn't the widow think that you were unfair to the general, so that's what you said? How do you let the widow punish you? You? ”

Lao Tzu hurriedly left his seat and kowtowed to Zhou Tianzi. Then he explained: "Lear had! May he be chastened! Lear: Isn't that? Tell the general that you will go back to eat and drink, and you will rest as soon as you get drunk? So! He was asked to wait outside. Originally! Did you want to finish talking to the Lord and leave, but when you start talking, you can't stop the topic? ……”

"That's it! All right! The widow will not punish you! Get up! Get up! The widow will accompany you to get drunk and rest! How is it! The widow sleeps even when he is drunk! It's a rare night's sleep! Come! Prepare sake! Serving! Drink it first! ”

"No!" When the old eunuch heard this, he quickly agreed.

Soon! Under the arrangement of the old eunuch, the wine was served first, and then some other dishes and snacks were arranged, so that the Son of Heaven, Lao Tzu, and Fang Jishi could drink wine. Over in the kitchen, hurry up and add vegetables.

"Drink! Don't talk about state affairs! Cackle! Drink! Zhou Jingwang picked up his wine glass, signaled, and then! Cover your sleeves and drink it all.

"Thank you, Lord!"

"Thank you, Lord!"

Fang Jishi and Lao Tzu thanked first and then drank.

"Hurry, hurry, hurry!" Backstage, the old eunuch was constantly urging the food to be served.
