Wei Xuan nodded and continued to ask Lou Guidao: "What will happen if Xuan is unwilling to count as emperors?" Will there be a crackdown on the official career, will there be people making things difficult everywhere when I go to Yuzhou this time, or will there be fierce actions against the Wei family and myself, such as assassination? ”

Lou Gui's face changed sharply, and then he quickly recovered and sneered: "Don't hide it, the previous assassination of Taishi and you may be the actions of some members of the Emperor Society, but it will definitely not be a collective decision made by the Emperor Society, but you can rest assured, as long as you join the Emperor Society, all members of the Emperor Society will not and dare not take similar drastic actions against you and the Wei family in the future, on the contrary, they will provide you with first-hand information about the various unfriendly actions taken by non-members of the Emperor Society against you and the Wei family as soon as possible." ”

Wei Xuan pouted, he believed that the Emperor would be able to do what Lou Gui promised, but only a very small number of high-level members could enjoy all the benefits, and most of them still needed to exchange the corresponding contributions for resources, so he said: "It looks very good, but Lou Jun, if the Emperor Council can help me solve the mastermind behind the two assassinations, I will consider joining the Emperor Council." ”

Lou Gui shook his head: "We can't participate in the grievances before joining the association, if both sides join the Emperor Guild at the same time, we naturally can't pursue the past grievances, I believe you can understand this?" ”

Wei Xuan sneered: "Members don't know if the other party is a member when they meet each other, how to ensure that their interests will not be infringed upon by people who are also members, and how to ensure that the Emperor Guild decides to fund the will of a certain person or the majority of members?" With all due respect, Lou Jun, you can't impress me with such conditions. ”

Lou Gui obviously didn't expect the young Wei Xuan to be so sophisticated, so he had to continue to explain: "There is also a hierarchy within the Emperor Guild, and members at the upper level will naturally be able to obtain most of the information of the members at the next level, and the members at the next level will also need to obey the interests of the higher level and more members at the same level. Our Imperial Council can last for hundreds of years, hundreds of years longer than the time of the Qin and Han dynasties, because there is a perfect system that protects the interests of the vast majority of members, please rest assured. ”

Wei Xuan believes that Lou Gui is telling the truth, China's family gate valve has also reached its peak in the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, as the saying goes, a century-old dynasty and a thousand-year-old family may have something to do with these emperors. But those who can really stand tall, such as Yang Song of Hanzhong during the Three Kingdoms period to the later royal family of the Sui Dynasty, such as the Pei family in Hedong, the Boling Cui family, the Taiyuan Wang family, the Fanyang Lu family, etc., should rely more on their family style inheritance.

But Wei Xuan thinks that he already has an emperor above him and a court, why should he find someone to restrain him for no reason, just read books, who he serves still needs to go up in rank to know, this is actually not much better than pyramid schemes, pyramid schemes can at least develop their own downlines to pit people.

After thinking about it, Wei Xuan decided to ask directly: "I heard that Jun and Meng De have a good relationship, and you should know that Brother Xuan and Meng De should also be good, and I will ask you that Meng De's chest department has joined the Emperor Society?" If Brother Meng De joins, I don't need you to lobby, I will go to him to consult some detailed information, and I will soon decide whether to join. ”

Lou Gui shook his head, Wei Xuan knew that he was playing tricks, shaking his head could make Cao Cao not join the Emperor Society, or this was also a secret, and it could not be said whether Cao Cao had joined or not.

Wei Xuan didn't give up and continued to ask: "Then Jiangdong Tiger Sun Jiansun * Wentai, Zhuojun royal family Liu Bei Liu Xuande can join?" ”

Seeing that Lou Gui wanted to continue to prevaricate Wei Xuan by shaking his head, he said, "You can reveal one of these three people, and I will officially consider joining the Emperor Guild." ”

Lou Gui looked at Wei Xuan a little puzzled, Cao Cao's name he naturally knew, and it also met the requirements of the Emperor Society, after all, Cao Cao's father used to be a captain, and he himself is currently a military captain, but Sun Jian is a little reluctant, although because of the need to suppress the thieves in the south of Jingzhou, Sun Jian was appointed as the Changsha Taishou, but Sun Jian is a martial artist, one hundred and five counties in the world, I don't know how many people have served as Taishou, as for what the hell Liu Bei is, Lou Gui really doesn't know. Cao Cao couldn't say that Sun Jian didn't meet the conditions, and he didn't know Lou Gui at all, so he could only continue to shake his head.

And Wei Xuan put the three of them together to ask, he will not know what Wei Xuan means for a while, Wei Xuan asked for a purpose, first of all, if Cao Cao joins, then he will follow Cao Cao in the future, not only a friend, but also a member of the Emperor Association, maybe he can become a backbone and help Cao Cao achieve great things. If only one of the three is a member or all of them are not this Emperor Society, it would be a bit funny, the end of the Han Dynasty was disrupted and then the Three Kingdoms were established, and the three founders of the three-way world were not members of the Emperor Society, then at least the decision-makers of the Emperor Association had problems in the selection of potential stocks, could it be that they would have a better tomorrow with Dong Zhuo or Yuan Shu and others?

After thinking about it, Wei Xuan asked again: "If Xuan joins the Emperor Guild, what level of member should he be?" ”

Lou Gui was a little embarrassed: "The rules of the Emperor Guild are that no matter how famous you were before, when you first entered the Imperial Guild, you are at the black iron level, and you have the right to elect bronze members to participate in the general meeting of the Imperial Guild on weekdays." On top of the Black Iron are Bronze, Silver, and Gold members, and if you want to move up to a higher level, you must achieve certain goals through donations or on behalf of the Emperor's Guild. Kei has been a member for ten years and is now a bronze member. ”

"Then can Lou Jun tell Xuan about the situation of several members of the Black Iron in Luoyang City, which will also facilitate Xuan to have a deeper understanding of the emperor."

Lou Gui smiled bitterly and shook his head, obviously as a bronze member, he had a certain understanding of the black iron members in Luoyang City, but this could not be said, at least not to non-members.

Seeing that Lou Gui didn't say anything, Wei Xuan was a little angry, Lao Tzu wanted to start from the lowest black iron member, and also donate and do tasks, no matter how you look at it, it looks like a pyramid scheme, so he said angrily: "Lou Jun, you came to visit, I want to know about Xuan and the Wei family, now my father is a master, and my brother is already Wen Xiling, and within a few years, he has taken a big county Taishou, although Xuan is not talented, he is already more than two thousand stones, so why do you need to follow your emperor to toss?" Do what you do for low-level members, and what if you want to rebel? Am I, the new captain of the thief, at your mercy for the sake of your interests? Who are you as Wei Xuan, and what are you when I am Hedong Wei's family? ”

Lou Gui's face was not good-looking when he heard this, he had heard that Wei Jiahu was always resourceful, but he was so aggressive, seeing that his mission this time was about to fail, and left a bad impression on Wei Xuan, so he tried to make a final effort: "Captain, you misunderstood, the purpose of our Imperial Association is to safeguard and protect the interests of members, if the lieutenant can join the Imperial Association, I dare not say that it will be smooth from now on, at least your Wei family will not go downhill in the hands of the captain." As for whether to rebel or not, I believe that the school captain and the princes of the court have their own judgments, and the decision of the Emperor Guild also comes from the elite of society, so it must be the most appropriate. ”

Lou Gui's words are a bit bold, if it is Zhong Xuan on the other side, it is estimated that at this moment, he will either draw his sword or shout at the servants at home to tie up Lou Gui and go to see the official. Wei Xuan is not so boring, but there is a lack of understanding of the Emperor Society, and according to Lou Gui, there is no other channel to further understand the Emperor Xuan, so he doesn't want to join, if there is a stronger family in the Han Dynasty than the Hedong Wei family, it is one of the few, so Wei Xuan feels that he should at least be at the silver level when he joins the Emperor Society, otherwise stupidly following behind other people's butts and eating ashes is not what he Wei Xuan is good at. Moreover, the Wei family is a descendant of Wei Qing, and Wei Su, the suzerain of the Wei family in Hedong, should be qualified to join the Emperor Society, Wei Su did not tell himself, Wei Su really wanted to join the Emperor Society, Lou Gui would not make another move, and he could directly let Wei Su introduce Wei Xuan to join the Association!

Thinking of this question, and then thinking of Wei Su being assassinated by Wang Yue, and the mysterious person between Xiangling and Huo Shan thieves, could it be that this person is from the Emperor Society, and the previous invitation to Wei Su failed, so he launched the assassination?

If this is the case, then whether Yuan Shao joined the Emperor Society, judging from the later historical development, Yuan Shao and Wang Yun seem to be suspicious, so who planned the assassination in Luoyang, Wei Xuan felt that this should be inseparable from the Emperor Society!

So he said to Lou Gui with an unkind face: "Forget it, the answer Xuan wants, you and the Emperor Guild can't provide any of them, Xuan can't see any benefits of joining the Imperial Guild, on the contrary, the risk is too great." Lou Jun, please go back. ”

Lou Gui was very disappointed, and finally reluctantly asked, "What should the captain do with Gui?" ”

"Jun is a madman in Nanyang, and Xuan is a gentleman who talks nonsense after drinking."

The corners of Lou Gui's mouth twitched, although Wei Xuan made it clear that he would not chase and fight, but he also made a summary of today's conversation, that is, Lou Gui is protecting his eyes! Even if it's not, it's not far off.

When Wei Xuan said this, Lou Gui had no choice but to give up for the time being, stood up and saluted Wei Xuan: "I disturbed the captain today, after Gui goes back, he will definitely invite more senior core members to come and lobby the captain, and I hope that the captain will not be prejudiced against the emperor because of Gui's inappropriate words." ”

Wei Xuan nodded, Lou Gui was also making a statement, Wei Xuan said that he would not cast Lou Gui who came to woo him, Lou Gui said that he would go back and invite more core members to lobby and also ask Wei Xuan to rest assured, whether the emperor would take retaliatory action because he refused to join.

When Lou Gui left, Wei Xuan began to slowly sort out and guess in his mind how deep the power of the Emperor Society penetrated, combined with the historical development of later generations, Wei Xuan felt that Dong Zhuo's poor child should not have joined the Emperor Society, even if he joined in the early stage and was abandoned in the later stage. It is very likely that Yuan Shao has already joined the Emperor Society, otherwise how did the situation come about?

There is another person that Wei Xuan is most concerned about, Wei Xuan feels that it is unlikely that Cao Cao will join the Imperial Society, this kind of hero, or he is sure to control the Imperial Society for his own use.

But the current Cao Cao, Cao Cao will be Yuan Shao's little follower for a long time in the future.

Unless Cao Cao later controlled the Emperor Society, it was impossible for him to defeat Yuan Shao, so the problem is that Cao Cao, who mastered the Emperor Society, plus several large states in the north, could not be unified, so the role of the Emperor Society was very limited. Since it is limited, how could Cao Cao join, so why should he join?

However, the appearance of Lou Gui also gave Wei Xuan a new idea, his own White Tiger Hall may not play much of a role in this regard, and he must improve Jinyi Wei as soon as possible, and the Emperor Guild will be an important object of investigation for a period of time in the future.
