Palace.

Tai Chi Palace.

Tai Chi Temple.

The Emperor was feeding the birds, very leisurely, but the Emperor Taishang had worries between his eyebrows, and he seemed to be in a bad mood.

"The Emperor."

Dai Quan said beside him: "The king of Beiping has arrived, just outside the palace. ”

"Let him in."

The Emperor Taishang didn't stop feeding the birds, and these birds were all purchased from outside the palace by Dai Quan with a lot of thought. The Emperor Taishang has nothing to do when he is idle, and he likes to listen to birdsong the most.

As I said, when a bird calls, the flowers will bloom.

Dai Quan is the same as a person, the emperor who has never admitted defeat has too much guilt for the queen mother in his heart. The Queen Mother likes to raise flowers, so the Emperor raised birds.

When the bird calls, the flowers will bloom, which is obviously related to the queen mother's flowers.

Dai Quan walked out of the main hall, and Wu Fa was waiting outside the hall at this time.

"Lord Wang."

Dai Quan didn't let Wu Fa go in as soon as possible, but pulled Wu Fa and walked a little farther away: "The slave has something to say, when you enter the main hall, you should pay attention." ”

Wu Fa is a good person, he deliberately befriended Dai Quan, although there is no intersection between the two on the surface, but Wu Fa is here in Dai Quan, and he spent a lot of money.

No, the payoff is coming.

These people who are missing a leg also always have some twisted darkness in their hearts.

They love money.

In the same way, love to raise a godson.

In addition to this, they have a strong sense of self-esteem and need the respect of others.

Even on the surface, they are extremely eager for others and don't look at them strangely.

Wu Fa was arrogant and domineering in front of others, but in front of the eunuchs in the palace, Wu Fa was generally very easy-going, and he also gave them a certain amount of respect.

As a person in the palace, even if he is a little eunuch, if he is lucky one day, he will instantly become a celebrity around the emperor and the emperor, and he will be extremely powerful in the palace in the future.

Moreover, they themselves served by the side of the emperor and the emperor.

Occasionally, a matter of one sentence or two sentences will change the mind of the emperor and the emperor.

In the face of the two choices of courtiers and eunuchs who serve him, the emperor often trusts the first eunuchs who serve him.

Wu Fa is not flattering, but sophisticated.

Low investment, high return.

"Grandpa Dai, what does this king need to pay attention to?"

Wu Fa's tone was as usual, there was no disgust and avoidance, and there was no deliberate softness.

In this way, this is what these eunuchs need most, normal respect.

"Recently, the emperor has been in a bad mood."

Dai Quan whispered: "Don't ask the Emperor Taishang why he is in a bad mood, the prince just needs to remember that if the Emperor Taishang asks you what bird you like the most, you must answer that it is Bailing." The Emperor wants to ask you what bird is the most beautiful, and you must answer that it is a hen..."

Wu Fa's face was a little strange, could it be that the emperor still raised hens?

After entering the Taiji Palace, Wu Fa really saw the old hen. 33

And, there's more than one.

"Alright."

When Wu Fa was about to salute, the Emperor Taishang waved his hand: "Don't salute, you scare these birds, come here, be light, they are very timid." ”

Tai Chi Hall, there are many bird cages.

There are birds that Wu Fa has seen, and there are birds that Wu Fa has not seen.

There are all kinds of birds, more than nine out of nine, Wu Fa has never seen them. Here, there are dozens of species of birds, some of which are good and some are not.

Seeing Wu Fa watching these birds, the Emperor Taishang bent down to feed the birds, and asked casually: "Wu Fa, what bird do you think has the best call?" ”

Wu Fa subconsciously glanced at Dai Quan, this old eunuch, who has served the Emperor Taishang for decades, has already touched the Emperor's temperament and habits very clearly.

Wu Fa smiled: "The minister thinks that the lark is the best." ”

The Emperor Taishang was a little surprised, straightened up, and patted the bird cage in front of him: "Why do you think that the lark is the best?" You know, there are many kinds of birds in the world, and it may not be only the lark that has the best call. ”

I said....

Wu Fa's eyes were gloomy, Dai Quan didn't say wow.

Why is the lark the best sound?

Dai Quan was also a little surprised, because the Emperor Taishang had never asked others why the lark's call was the best.

Wu Fa's eyes rolled: "The minister doesn't understand this, he just thinks it's good, and then there is, the minister grew up in Shenjing City, and he hasn't been out of the house before, there was an old king next door, and he raised a lark, and at that time the minister always felt that spring was around." ”

"Later, after the southern and northern wars, after gaining knowledge, I also saw some birds, but I always felt that the call was not as good as the lark's call."

This is a very different answer.

Dai Quan saw sweat on his forehead, Wu Fa compared the Emperor Taishang to the old king next door?

"Not bad."

The Emperor Taishang agreed with Wu Fa's statement: "It's because I have little knowledge and haven't heard other bird calls, and I think the best bird calls are the best." These birds are like people, some speak well, some speak badly, but there will always be people who think that a sound of speech is the best. ”

Too great a talent!

He even used birds as a metaphor for human beings.

Obviously, the Emperor Taishang is talking about the great truth of life again.

It is also obvious that Wu Fa's remarks have been approved by the Emperor Taishang.

"So, what bird do you think is the best-looking?"

Wu Fa's answer, although the rhetoric is not very gorgeous, is not as good as those Wenchen, and he can't wait to use the most beautiful rhetoric to praise a bird.

Wu Fa's answer was very sincere.

Unpretentiousness is the most sincere.

The corners of Dai Quan's mouth hooked, the character of the king of Beiping County is a straightforward character, without the cunning and cunning of Wenchen, the kind of hollowing out the mind to flatter.

It is clear that the Emperor Taishang likes this kind of character.

"The old hen is the most beautiful bird."

Dai Quan has already given Wu Fa the answer ready.

Wu Fa is not stupid, this answer at this time is definitely the best answer in the heart of the emperor.

Even if the Emperor Taishang never said which kind of bird is the most beautiful, but on weekdays, when the Emperor Taishang feeds the birds, he stays in front of the bird cage for a long time, or other actions, you can deduce which kind of bird the Emperor likes.

The Emperor Taishang was a little surprised this time and glanced at Dai Quan.

Did Dai Quan help Wu cheat?

Dai Quan definitely knows him best.

However, the Emperor Taishang thought about it carefully, and he never said which kind of bird he liked, nor did he praise which bird was the best-looking. Seeing that although Dai Quan bowed slightly and his hands hung slightly, he didn't seem to pay attention to this at all.

Emperor Taishang looked at Wu Fa, Wu Fa's answer was the best answer in his heart: "Birds cherish their feathers, flying in the sky, there are many birds walking on the ground, and there are also many bright feathers, hen feathers are dry, and they can't fly, and they are even a little dirty, why do you think that hens are the most beautiful birds?" ”

Dai Quan trembled inwardly.

Could it be that my guess has been wrong all these years?

The heart of the emperor is changeable, and Dai Quan has summarized the preferences of the emperor for so many years, and there should be no mistake.

Otherwise, in the Taiji Palace, there are so many birds, but the emperor is too high and raises the old hen in the palace?

Wu Fa didn't know the answer in the heart of the emperor, but Wu Fa had the answer in his heart: "The minister lost his father when he was young, his family was poor, and it was difficult to eat and drink. My mother worked hard to pull our brothers and sisters, and we didn't see meat at both ends of the year..."

Wu Fa was not wrong about this, Wu Fa's predecessor's father died and owed some foreign debts.

After Wu Fa became a green skin, the Cai family also returned the silver he earned.

In terms of eating and drinking, the pursuit of fullness, rather than delicacies from the mountains and seas.

Emperor Taishang's body paused slightly, and he looked at Wu Fa in surprise.

Since the rise of Wu Fa, everything about Wu Fa has been recorded in the book and presented in front of the Emperor.

Wu Fa is not wrong about this, when Wu Fa was young, he did have difficulty making a living.

But some details, the Emperor Taishang also heard of it for the first time.

From two ends a year, there is no meat...

It's really difficult, this is still the people of Shenjing City, so what about the people of the world?

Between the emperor's eyebrows, some worries emerged.

Wu Fa lowered his head, looked at the old hen, and pictures appeared in his mind: "Later, my mother raised a few chickens, and after laying eggs, she could sell them, buy grain, buy cloth... My sister and I actually want to drink chicken soup the most. That time, the minister was injured in the bandits with the army, and his mother boiled eggs in tears... There are three of them, and I remember my sister drooling and helping her to peel eggs..."

"You know, since the old hen at home, my sister has never been willing to eat eggs once, and every time she eats them..."

Wu Fa's tone was gentle and softened, which is why the predecessor spoiled his sister so much, after making money, he always bought delicious food for his sister.

"The hen lays eggs, and to a certain extent, feeds our family."

Wu Fa took a deep breath: "There are thousands of birds in the world, thousands of calls, bright feathers, not bright, whether the ministers have seen it, whether they have never seen it, and only the old hen, to a certain extent, let us survive... In the minister's heart, the old hen is the most beautiful. ”

When I was young, I stared at the chicken pen every day.

At that time, the old hen in Wu Fa's eyes was not a living thing, but made of silver.

Dai Quan already had tears in his eyes.

The Emperor Taishang was also silent.

Everyone has a past, and the details of Wu Fa's past are only known to the Emperor today.

"Wu Fa."

The Emperor's voice was a little hoarse: "I originally wanted to be kind to the people of the world, what can you do?" ”

Wu Fa thought for a while: "Emperor, Your Majesty has begun to treat the people of the world well, and now the taxes of farmers have been reduced, and the taxes of merchants have been collected, and to a certain extent, the lives of the people are getting better and better." ”

Emperor Taishang took a deep look at Wu Fa, because this national policy was proposed by Wu Fa.

"I know you, in terms of governance, there is still a lack of heat."

The Emperor stroked his beard and smiled, pointed to a chair, and asked Wu Fa to sit down.

Wu Fa was not polite, sat down directly, and muttered in his heart: "In terms of governing the country, I have a lot of policies, but they are too advanced, I'm afraid you won't be able to accept it." ”

"Now, in the north of the Great Jin Dynasty, Eros and Mongolia are eyeing each other, I know your countermeasures, do you have anything else to add?"

Emperor Taishang's face became solemn: "After all, the Mongolian cavalry has not been attached for a long time, can it be used?" ”

Wu Fa frowned, Mongolia surrendered 220,000 troops, this is a threat!

Use it well, conquer the world, invincible.

If you are not careful, you may turn the Mongol cavalry against you.

It's still dangerous.

After all, Wu Fa is going to lead the Mongolian cavalry to attack the Mongolian army in the steppe...

Wu Fa didn't answer immediately, but kept thinking about it, raised his head, Wu Fa's face was very serious: "The emperor should know about the wolf race." ”

The Emperor nodded.

"The Mongolian totem is the wolf, they believe in the wolf god, and the wolf is a beast, no matter what its heart is, the minister knows that the head wolf has absolute leadership and dominance, and the subordinate wolves dare not make any changes."

Wolves are extremely patient and very team player.

But there is no denying the role of the head wolf.

"But wolves also have a characteristic, that is, if they are scared and subdued, they will lose their heart to resist."

Wu Fa's voice changed: "These hundreds of thousands of Mongolian cavalry were defeated by my Great Jin at the beginning, and now they are afraid of my Great Jin in their hearts, as long as my Great Jin does not show a decline and the world is in chaos, these hundreds of thousands of Mongolian cavalry may not dare to seriously oppose my Great Jin." ”

There are absolutes in everything, and the Emperor Taishang is still worried.

Wu Fa smiled: "Emperor, when the Mongolian army surrendered, the minister considered this, and now the Mongolian army, five or six out of ten, have married local girls, and the minister replaced the Mongolian girls with the girls of the Jiaofang Division, and most of the girls who were replaced were married to the Mongolian cavalry, and now they have families, children, official positions, status, and wealth..."

The Emperor's eyes became brighter and brighter.

I think that at the beginning, Wu Fa replaced the Mongolian girl captured by Mongolia for the girl of the Teaching Workshop, and almost let the Confucian students of the world go to the book and execute.

At that time, the emperor thought that Wu Fa was too nonsense, but now that he thinks about it, Wu Fa began to plan at that time.

Wu Fa said again: "When the minister was mixed with green skins on the streets, it was very clear that some people had to use the simplest and most practical methods to make them reluctant in their hearts, and they would not resist. ”

Dai Quan saw Khan on his forehead, King of Beiping County, you are talking about human nature in front of the Emperor, you are not afraid that the Emperor will be afraid of you, and you have gathered the heart of the Mongolian army?

"Again..."

Wu Fa laughed cruelly: "Back then, the minister's army of 20,000 was collected and surrendered to the grassland, and now the minister can mobilize more troops, even if the Mongolian army of hundreds of thousands is reversed, the minister... And without fear. ”

The Emperor nodded slightly, and his heart finally fell to the ground.

Wu Fa's ability to serve as a soldier is indeed comparable to that of the ancient generals.

With Wu Fazai, the trouble of northern Xinjiang... Or maybe solution.

Now Mongolia is resurrected, and Eros is secretly supporting it.

There are also Eros who claims to be an army of 800,000, Chen soldiers in the grassland, the heart of the Great Jin army has been shaken, and many generals in the DPRK and China dare not take the initiative to go out, and only Wu Fa dares to directly confront it and lead the army north.

"Don't worry, after you go north, everything will be under your control."

Emperor Taishang gave Wu Fa the greatest authority: "As for how you respond, the envoys of the four countries, how to mobilize the army, I don't care with the emperor, I and the emperor, there is only one purpose..."

Emperor Taishang stood up, folded his hands behind his back, and stared at the north: "The Great Jin will win!" ”

Wu Fa also hurriedly got up: "Minister, you will live up to expectations." ”

For the sake of this nation, for the sake of his own land, Wu Fa... As in duty bound!

After chatting with the Emperor Taishang for a long time, Wu Fa got up and said goodbye.

After walking a few steps, Wu Fa stopped: "Emperor, the minister has a reluctant request. ”

Emperor Taishang nodded: "This northern expedition is a big deal, the Shenji Battalion you said, after all, you still need to go south, and give you 5,000." In addition, you have a lot of requirements, and the emperor and I will try our best to meet you. ”

For the sake of a victory, the emperor did not dare to be careless.

This battle is the national fortune.

Victory, Dajin continues to inherit.

Defeated...

The history books leave shame, and when the time comes, the Great Jin may not be able to survive.

Therefore, at this time, Wu Fa has made some conditions, and the emperor and the emperor will try their best to meet him.

"This..."

Wu Fa smiled embarrassedly: "The minister thinks, after the minister goes on the expedition, please ask the emperor and His Majesty to protect the minister's family more, after all, the minister has offended a lot of people." ”

The emperor's face twitched, how much did you offend?

In Shenjing City, Niu Jizong is not counted, and the rest of the noble eunuchs, which one doesn't want you to die?

Now, they might have gotten together to draw circles and curse you.

Emperor Taishang nodded seriously: "You can rest assured of this." ”

Even if you don't say it, my granddaughter, I can't protect it yet?

This bastard, there are too many people to offend...

"The minister is still thinking..."

Wu Fa's eyes rolled: "The minister's son, or daughter, is about to be born, after all, the minister has little reading, and he racked his brains during this time, and he has not been able to come up with a name for the courtier, the emperor, can you give one to the courtier?" ”

The Emperor Taishang's face suddenly turned a little red, and there was some excitement in his eyes.

As Qin Keqing's real grandfather, the Emperor Taishang didn't think about naming Qin Keqing's son.

But, after all, Wu Fa is still there.

And he can't meddle in this matter.

Now, Wu Fa has this request, and the Emperor Taishang is excited in his heart.

"This is the Tai Chi Palace."

The hands behind the Emperor Taishang's back were slowly trembling: "Just, take a single pole character, let's call it Wu Ji." ”

Wu Fa's eyes widened, and his face was full of astonishment: "Emperor, why are you so cursed as the son of a minister?" ”

Wu Ji, right?

Say that you don't bring it, civilized you, me and him.

Emperor Taishang was a little stunned: "Wu Fa, heaven, how could you ever curse your son?" ”

Sky.

This is the self-proclaimed title of the Emperor.

The emperor is the Son of Heaven, and the Emperor Taishang is naturally the sky.

The Emperor rarely uses this self-title, and now he is obviously angry.

That's your son, and you're the great-grandson of Heaven!

"Get out!"

Emperor Taishang was a little angry, and this reckless man was inexplicable: "When the time comes, when you are on a crusade in the north, the emperor will naturally show you your merits, and the son of Ci'er will be extremely famous!" ”

This naming right must be grasped in hand!

The Emperor refused to give up.

Some people died, but not completely......
