Zu Ting's talent does not need to be questioned, he once wrote "Ode to Qingde" and attracted Gao Huan's attention.

Gao Huan summoned Zu Ting to order thirty-six things on the spot, and Zu Ting then wrote down the thirty-six things one by one, and there was no mistake or omission, so he was deeply appreciated by Gao Huan.

This person is good at calligraphy and painting, work articles, and the words are strong and elegant; Rhythm, foreign language (Xianbei and other four languages), yin and yang divination are all refined, and medical skills are even more praised.

Erudite and talented at that time, and courageous, after Zu Ting was old, he was relegated to Northern Xuzhou, although he was blind, he was able to retreat from the enemy with an empty city, and provided creative materials for Luo Guanzhong.

It stands to reason that such a character should have attracted Gao Cheng's attention a long time ago, Zu Ting is not only the only blind prime minister in history, but also has a deep friendship with Chen Yuankang in Jinyang, and he will not have never met Gao Cheng in any case.

The fact is that Gao Cheng went to Jinyang several times, and Chen Yuankang intended to introduce friends to Gao Cheng, but Gao Cheng has always avoided it.

There are many reasons why Gao Cheng dislikes Zu Ting, but it does not include his shortcomings of accumulating greed for money and indulging in indulgence.

Otherwise, if you don't say that you have the same smell, Zu Ting's greed for money is no different from Chen Yuankang's, and as for fornication, he is also more of a vocal game with Chen Yuankang.

The private lives of the two are extremely disorderly, but Gao Cheng has no moral cleanliness.

It's just that compared with Chen Yuankang, Zu Ting has one more habit of stealing, and his hands and feet are not clean.

For example, when he was a guest at a friend's house, he stole two copper plates, and finally found them in Zu Ting's arms.

Gao Huan feasted the crowd, and lost the gin, Dou Tai asked everyone to take off the crown and hat, and finally found it on Zu Ting's hair.

For the first time, Gao Huan cherished Zu Ting's talent, and did not make any difficulty, because Zu Ting was good at medical skills, when he was reappointed as Shang Yaocheng, he stole walnut oil, and was finally dismissed.

Before his death, his close friend Chen Yuankang left a last word to Zu Ting, saying that he had 25 ingots of gold deposited in Zu Xi's house, hoping that his friend could claim it back for him and transfer it to his family.

After Zu Ting came to the door to ask for it, he gave two ingots as a sealing fee to Zu Xi, and the rest was all privately swallowed.

Of course, the most important thing for Gao Cheng not to see Zu Ting is that he is addicted to human desires, and he can do anything in order to climb up.

For example, with Lu Lingxuan...... is the prototype of Lu Zhen in "The Legend of Lu Zhen", conspired with her to frame Zhongliang.

The person who was exterminated by them had a small effect on the Northern Qi at that time, and that person's name was Hu Luguang.

When Emperor Wu of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, Yuwen Yong, learned of Hu Luguang's death, he was overjoyed and even issued an edict to grant amnesty to the world in the Northern Zhou Dynasty.

This shows the importance of Hu Luguang in maintaining the current situation in the last years of the Northern Qi Dynasty.

Song Renzong died, and the emperor of Liao cried, after all, it is rare to see such a cowardice that can be handled at will, and it is not beautiful to be able to add money at the border at the whole time.

Hu Lu Guang died, Emperor Wu of the Northern Zhou Dynasty was happy, in the final analysis, as Yu Wen Yong said when he entered Yecheng: 'If Hu Lu Guang is here, I can enter this place'.

If Hu Luguang does not die, at least it can last for a while more Northern Qi Guozuo.

After Hu Luguang's death, Zu Ting fought for power with his ally Lu Lingxuan, and was finally demoted

Gao Cheng loves Hu Luguang, not only because he is brave and good at fighting, and he is loyal, but also because Hu Luguang is strict in his family, frugal in life, does not seek personal gain, is honest and honest, and does not accumulate guests, even if he is in charge of military power, he has never interfered in court politics.

Who wouldn't like such a general, so they were full of disgust for Zu Ting and Lu Lingxuan, who slandered Hu Luguang and plotted chaos and exterminated him, as well as another henchman and Shikai who had not participated in it because of his early death.

But Gao Cheng didn't want to stop Zu Ting because of this, during this time he also figured out that it was one thing for Zu Ting to be a despicable person, but in his hands, he was a dragon and a tiger was lying down.

No matter how Zu Ting orchestrates rumors to frame Zhongliang, it is up to him whether he listens to it or not.

Rumors of this kind of thing, the lord is wise, and it is useless for outsiders to shout through the sky, and the lord is stupid, so he can kill.

Gao Huan and Gao Cheng divided the towns of Jinyang and Luoyang, and the Western Wei Dynasty and Southern Liang spread all kinds of rumors in an attempt to separate their father and son, and more than a dozen versions were derived from Gao Cheng's murder of his father alone.

For example, fornicating with his mother-in-law, secretly plotting, and so on.

Gao Huan wants to have a brain with his good grandson, Gao Wei, the queen of the Northern Qi Dynasty, and Gao Cheng has already raised troops in Luoyang.

If he can suppress Zu Ting, even if he can't survive Zu Ting in terms of lifespan, it's a big deal to leave a testament and order Zu Ting and Zhang Shiqi to be companions and be martyred together.

Zhang Shiqi has recently been busy sorting out the book "Gao's Entrepreneurship Record", which truthfully records the hard work of Gao Cheng leading his father Gao Huan to start a business.

I would never have thought that the little high king I served wholeheartedly had always had the idea of letting him be martyred.

Sometimes it's not a good thing to know too much about the privacy of a monarch.

More and more people are looking at the teahouse, Zu Ting is also among them, and the handsome young man with a somewhat similar appearance to Gao Huan at the window on the third floor must be Gao Cheng.

Zu Ting was bitter in his heart, when he was in Jinyang, he had entrusted Chen Yuankang to introduce him many times, but he always failed, and even took advantage of Gao Cheng to talk to Chen Yuankang's mansion a few times, Zu Ting pinched the time to visit, and Gao Cheng still avoided it.

Zu Ting thought about it again and again, thinking that it was because of his bad reputation for corruption, fornication, and stealing.

After Jinyang was dismissed, Zu Ting did not follow Chen Yuankang's advice and asked to see Gao Cheng with a letter of recommendation.

Chen Yuankang was introduced several times in person, and what role can a letter play.

I have heard that Gao Cheng values talent but not morality, and he only needs a chance to show his talent.

Fortunately, there is no endless road, and the imperial examination is promoted in a timely manner, in Zu Ting's view, this is the best opportunity for Gao Cheng to see his talents.

The complexity of human nature is undoubtedly revealed in Zu Ting, he can speak out bravely, report to Gao Zhan, and disclose the crimes of Zhao Yanshen, Yuan Wenyao, He Shikai and others.

can also argue with reason when Gao Zhan is angry, and finally anger Gao Zhan and be blinded.

He Shikai, Lu Lingxuan and others, who were also impeached by him, ignored the difficult situation, set off party disputes, fabricated rumors, and single-handedly cleared the last obstacle for the Northern Zhou Dynasty to destroy Qi.

And his actions are not revenge for the destruction of both eyes, after Zu Ting took power, he turned against Lu Lingxuan and tried to exclude him from the court, the intention is unknown, it is a good thing.

After being demoted, he served as a magistrate, and he was also dutiful.

As Gao Cheng thought, Zu Ting is a person who is greedy for profit, but he is talented and courageous, and the key depends on who uses it.

At this point, Gao Cheng has no lack of confidence, unless he is old and faint, Zu Ting will not be able to be a demon no matter what.

The sky was slightly bright, the bell was ringing, and I witnessed the candidates outside the examination hall being carefully inspected one by one and entering in turn.

Gao Cheng turned around and smiled at Zhang Shiqi:

"The heroes of the world are all in my place."

Zhang Shiqi's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he quickly took out the booklet that usually recorded Gao Cheng's words and deeds, and polished and wrote.

I woke up late, and I'm in a hurry now
