Chapter 726: Together
If you don't make things clear, the two young people won't know what to do. Triki then opened his mouth to explain, "The two of you went to the Dragon Heavenly King to observe and learn."
"Observe the style of the Dragon Heavenly King and his people, and see if the Dragon Army can become powerful."
"In just a few months, occupying the Five Cities, the Dragon Heavenly King must have his own merits, you can learn from his strengths and broaden your horizons, which will be of great benefit to your future life development."
"As for who wins and who loses between Dragon King Heaven and Wenzong, it's not something we can control, but we can bet in advance. Let's put it this way, if the Dragon Heavenly King wins in the end, you are the people that my Cui clan arranged to take refuge in advance, and with you here, presumably the Cui clan will be fine."
"On the contrary, if the Wang Clan defeats the Dragon Heavenly King, then you are the eyeliner that my Cui Clan has placed next to the Dragon Heavenly King. Find the right time, provide important information, or fight back, you can make meritorious contributions and be invincible."
Cui Qi is worthy of being the head of the family, and he considers things very comprehensively. According to what he said, no matter who wins in the future, their Cui family can benefit.
Cui Yuanshan and Cui Daotong understood a little, but then asked suspiciously, "The head of the family is betting on both sides, so why don't you also place a bet with General Yin Yuhu?"
"Yin Yuhu Yin's family, hehe, what kind of climate is destined to become." Triki chuckled.
Although he couldn't see who would be the final winner between Long Tianwang and Wenzong, one thing could be seen very clearly, that is, it would definitely not be the Yin clan who won. The reason is that the Yin family is just a local wealthy family, and it can be done by occupying the mountain as the king, but if you want to set the world, the other party does not have the courage, the ability, and the mind to govern the world.
Seeing that the head of the family gave the direction and also gave an explanation, Cui Yuanshan, who was originally very curious about this newly emerged Dragon Heavenly King, looked at each other, and nodded in unison, "Family master, we have taken over the errand."
The Cui family has made moves, and there are also wise people among some other small clans in Goryeo, and they have also begun to have various plans and actions. Not only that, but the Li family, one of the four major clans, also made a move.
When the notice appeared in Kaijing, it was quickly torn down, but the content was still circulated. After the deputy governor Li Qi learned about it, he quickly returned to his backyard, met Meng Youde, and asked what was going on.
Li Qi has completely taken refuge in Su Shi, and the conversation between the two is naturally open and honest.
"What else is going on, no one thought that Yin Yuhu would rebel, in addition to the Goryeo army, it really can't fight, my family's Heavenly King's territory is expanding too fast, and there is no talent available in his hands." Faced with Li Qi's question, Meng Youde explained aloud.
As soon as he heard that there were no available talents, Li Qi was overjoyed.
After hundreds of years of development, the Lee family has more than anything, especially more talents.
He was thinking that he was just in contact with a Meng Youde, was this person's identity too low, and when the Dragon Heavenly King really called him in the future, would he be able to speak. Well, now that he knows that Su Shi is short of talents, isn't this his own opportunity?
As the saying goes, it is better to rely on no one than on yourself.
Where is Meng Youde's own clan Li people more reliable?
With excitement, Li Qi spoke, "Mr. Meng, there is not enough talent in the hands of the Dragon Heavenly King, you can tell us, we Li Clan have a lot of scholars, and there are also some capable ministers of the world."
Meng Youde, who had long known Li Qi's intentions, first groaned, and then raised his head and said, "What Master Li said is good, that is the case, you can choose some talents among the young people of the Li family, and a certain person will write a letter of recommendation to help them serve the Dragon Heavenly King."
"Okay, thank you so much, Mr. Meng, by the way, but I don't know how many people are needed?" Li Qi saw that Meng Youde agreed, and asked happily.
"Not too little, but not too much, about ten." Meng Youde opened his mouth and said the answer after asking Su Shi for instructions before.
"Ten? Isn't it too few, our Li family has a lot of talents, even a hundred people." When Li Qi heard that there were only ten people, he was somewhat dissatisfied.
"That's it." Meng Yes
De immediately pulled down his face and said, "Lord Li, don't you want the Dragon Heavenly King to only use the people of the Li family, and you can replace them in the future?"
Seeing that Meng Youde was displeased, Li Qi was also shocked, and immediately waved his hand and said, "Don't dare, don't dare, the Li family just wants to relieve the Dragon Heavenly King's worries. Even if Mr. Meng said ten people, then ten people will be fine."
Li Qi knew in his heart that it was impossible for Su Shi to reuse too many people from the Li family, otherwise he would not have to make a wedding dress for the Li family. He was satisfied with ten people.
The Cui clan is out, the Li family is also out, and some small clans have also moved their minds to send people. And some low-level readers in the folk are also moved.
In a very ordinary inn in Kaijing City, a young man with a vigorous face but an ordinary appearance was packing his package.
Zhang Shihai, born in an ordinary people's family, was not beautiful when he was three years old, and after flooding the limited fields at home, his life was not as good as day by day. But even in such an environment, Zhang's father still did his best to help Zhang Shihai read and write.
When he was fifteen years old, his father died of exhaustion and illness, leaving him and his mother to rely on each other. But even so, Zhang's mother relied on washing and needlework for others, and was still providing for her only son to study.
So much so that now, Zhang's mother's eyesight has deteriorated dramatically, and she can't see too many things clearly.
Zhang Shihai finally grew up, and he came to Kaijing with a lot of knowledge, wanting to find a way to become an official.
Because Goryeo has a dual system of recommendation and imperial examination, there is only one imperial examination every six years. And now it has only been four years since the last imperial examination, and there are still two years to pass the examination to enter the ranks.
Zhang Shihai's condition was that he couldn't wait for two years, and he came to open Beijing just to see if he could vote for which minister he could be recommended as an official.
It's just a pity that although Zhang Shihai's knowledge is good and he is famous, his appearance is too ordinary, and he often studies and farms at the same time, and his face is tanned. Compared with other students who want to become officials through the recommendation system, he does not take any advantage in terms of appearance.
Without this advantage, Zhang Shihai ran into walls everywhere, and he was already disappointed in his heart. And yesterday, when he got up early in the morning to try his luck around, he saw the notice posted by Su Shi in the city, although officers and soldiers soon appeared and ripped it off, but with Zhang Shihai's ability, he still remembered everything on it.
The name of the Dragon Heavenly King, he heard people talk about it after he came to Kaijing.
According to these people, the Dragon Heavenly King is more than a foot tall, his eyes are as big as bells, and he specializes in eating people's hearts. It is even said that if you don't eat ten or eight people a day, your heart will be furious, and you will kill people indiscriminately.
Of course, this is all the Goryeo court smearing Su Shi, in order to make everyone afraid of this person and not support this person. But in the eyes of a person with the ability to judge like Zhang Shihai, this is nonsense at all, how can a person look like that?
This kind of deliberate smear cannot be frightened by a wise man like Zhang Shihai. But because Kaijing was far away from the northern border where Su Shi was located, he didn't think about going there. But after seeing the notice yesterday, Zhang Shihai was moved.
Instead of staying in Kaijing City and crashing into a completely hopeless mess, it is better to try your luck at the Dragon Heavenly King.
Now Zhang Shihai has no money in his hands, even if he wants to continue to live in this inn, he is unable to continue. If you go home at this time, it will be tantamount to completely giving up hope, this is not what Zhang Shihai wants, it is better to go to the north to try your luck, it's a big deal, it's not good over there, you are begging for food all the way back.
The right should give yourself some life experience.
In this way, Zhang Shihai didn't fall asleep much last night, kept tossing and turning, and after squinting for a while at almost dawn, he woke up and began to pack his things.
When he was packing his very simple luggage, there was a sudden knock on the door outside, "Brother Zhang, are you in the house?"
This voice Zhang Shihai is very familiar with, it is Jiang Yu, who has the same experience as himself and wants to come to the capital to try his luck, but he is unlucky.
"Brother Jiang, come in." He didn't stop packing up his things, and Zhang Shihai didn't plan to hide his departure from anyone.
The door was pushed open from the outside, and Jiang Yu walked in.
Get in
It was Jiang Yu who came, and what he saw was Zhang Shihai packing up his salute, and he was stunned for a moment, "Brother Zhang, is this about to leave?"
"Yes. I don't see the slightest hope, and I don't want to waste my life here." Zhang Shihai nodded, tied the package that had been packed, and then threw it on his back and turned around.
It was this turn that saw Jiang Yu, who was also carrying a package, and Zhang Shihai couldn't help but be stunned and said, "Brother Jiang is also preparing to leave?"
"Hehe, exactly." Jiang Yu smiled and asked, "But I don't know where Brother Zhang is going?"
"Where is Brother Jiang going?"
After the two of them asked questions at the same time, they looked at each other and laughed.
Silence is better than sound at this point.
Although the two of them didn't say anything, they issued a notice yesterday, and today they are going to leave Kaijing together, and it is already self-evident where they are going.
Both of them are smart people, and some things don't have to be said so thoroughly. After the two looked at each other and laughed, they spoke almost at the same time, "Isn't it as good as ever?"
"Haha, let's go together." Jiang Yu laughed.
"Okay, we can be companions together, so I'm not alone." Zhang Shihai also laughed. Follow the two out of the room and leave the inn.
This scene didn't just happen to the two of them, many people of insight, people who claimed to be talented, after they couldn't see any hope in Kaijing, they all chose to go to the north, thinking of going to the Dragon Heavenly King to try their luck.
Even if there is no result, it is better to take a trip and increase knowledge.
