413: Emperors are all insane
Take people with short hands and eat people with short mouths.
If you have received a favor from others, you will repay them a hundredfold in the future.
To do otherwise is to be ungrateful.
Zhao Yun let him know that he couldn't persuade Ouyang Xiu.
had to come to Qin's house in a huff, and pulled Qin Wei over without saying anything.
There are the most stalls on the face of Bianhe, which is a gathering place for ordinary people, but there are not many small stalls and restaurants.
After all, food and clothing have become a problem these days, and among the people in the outer city, who has the money to go to the restaurant every day.
"This is the task given to you by His Majesty, what does it have to do with so-and-so?"
At a stall selling rice wine, there were a few small dishes on the table, and Zhao Yunrang and Qin Wei sat and drank face to face.
"Still not brothers?"
Zhao Yunrang glanced at him angrily, and said, "Your Majesty wants me to help him live better, and I can't give favors clearly, this is ...... It's hard to do! ”
He is not short of money, if he just gives a simple relief, he can take out 1,800 yuan.
But this Ouyang Xiu is just a tendon, and he would rather squeeze in that group of women than accept his favor.
Qin Wei took a sip and smacked his lips and said: "That person's money and wealth will eliminate disasters with others, and receiving favors from others will involve cause and effect." ”
"Why don't you just find something lighter for his mother to do?"
Zhao Yunrang said with confidence: "Huanyi is so hard, and Ouyang Xiu has an official position, and it will be embarrassing to pass it on, his mother will definitely agree." ”
Qin Wei said noncommittally: "You can go and try." ”
This kind of low-alcohol rice wine is the most mellow, but after drinking too much, Qin Wei stopped pouring wine.
The clothes brought by the mother and son by the river were almost washed.
Zhao Yunrang got up and walked over, his steps vigorous.
He had only walked on his front feet when two men at a table drinking on the side looked over.
One of them is Ye Shuangchou.
Qin Wei was not surprised.
This is something that Zhao Zhen personally explained, how could Ye Shuangchou not be sad.
He came over and sat in Zhao Yunrang's position just now, with a ghostly fire in his eyes, and asked, "I thought you would give him an idea." ”
Qin Wei took a sip of the teacup, frowned slightly, and said, "Your Majesty asked him to come, just because he was worried that I would come forward and commit a taboo, and I am not stupid......"
Ye Shuangchou stretched out his hand and picked up a piece of dried fish, his lips moved slightly, "The world forgets its righteousness when it sees profit, and when it sees benefits, will the Yao family still take it?" ”
"He's definitely not going to take it."
Qin Wei's words made Ye Shuangchou smile, a very penetrating smile.
He is in charge of the Imperial City Division, what kind of hard bones have never been seen.
But once these people touch the interests of life, no matter how hard their bones are, they will be corroded.
"What if he takes it?"
Qin Wei took another sip of wine, and then regretted it again, "I just can't control this mouth!" ”
He put down his wine glass, "If you take it, you will take 5,000 guan and hand it over to the imperial court to repair the yamen." ”
"Good!"
Ye Shuangchou said coldly: "If the Yao family doesn't take it, it will be regarded as owing you a favor." ”
"Your love...... That's it, it's still worth 5,000 yuan. ”
Qin Wei wanted to say that it was not worth it, but in the end he gave him a face.
Ye Shuangchou's favor is not small, and Zai Fu may not have this treatment.
It can save lives when it matters most!
……
Huanyi looks simple, but it can maintain a movement for a long time, and it is not a light job.
Not long after Ouyang Xiu washed, he felt sore, so he sat on the riverside and stretched.
When he twisted his waist, he found Zhao Yunrang who had gone and returned.
"Little grandpa, you're here again......"
“……”
Zhao Yunrang sat beside him with a helpless face, smiled at the Yao family on the side, and said, "Respect mother and son have a lot of hard work here, if there is an easier job......
You don't want money, can you change to a lighter job, right?
Ouyang Xiu was still a little confused, but Pang Shi smiled and said, "Thank you......"
It's going to be a promise.
Zhao Yunrang felt that normal people would accept it, anyway, they had to pay for labor, which was not a favor.
"It's just that the slaves are used to it."
Yao's words made Zhao Yunrang's smile stiffen.
He felt a little incredible, and even thought it was embarrassing, so he said: "It's just a trivial matter, as long as you promise, you can go tomorrow, Qin Ji knows, right?" There are many female workers in the fragrance workshops outside the city, and the money is not less. ”
Yao glanced at his son and said, "Thank you, although Huanyi has worked hard, it is peaceful." ”
What is tranquility?
Zhao Yunrang was born in the county king's mansion since he was a child, and he was only accompanied by the intrigue in the big family, and he never experienced the peace in this kind of poverty.
Ouyang Xiu stood up at this time and arched his hand at him, "Thank you little grandpa for your kindness...... You should have been commissioned by Qin Sacrifice Wine, right? Although my mother and son are living a little poorer, they can still have food and clothing, so I won't trouble you. ”
"Why?"
Zhao Yunrang stood up, but he was angry.
"Isn't it good to change to a job that saves more money?"
Ouyang Xiu shook his head honestly: "Since the student entered the National Prison, Qin Sacrifice Wine has helped the students enough, and the students have nothing to repay, so they dare not accept favors in vain." ”
For him, Qin Wei is also a teacher and a friend.
For more than a year, he has cared about himself, and Ouyang Xiu knows in his heart that what Qin Wei values is not his literary talent, but precisely his honesty.
Therefore, he didn't want to be looked down upon, and he didn't want to be thought of by Qin Wei as the kind of speculative person who would only meet the light.
Then Zhao Yunrang persuaded him several times, but Ouyang Xiu just shook his head and refused.
Zhao Yunrang went back with a confused expression.
"Brother Qin, why didn't he agree? Benefits of Door-to-Door Delivery...... And so-and-so said that this matter is not a favor, and I will not worry about them in the future, but the mother and son still don't agree. ”
Zhao Yunrang was a little annoyed and shouted, "Bring the wine." ”
He felt his confidence take a hit.
For a gentleman, there are not many opportunities to do the right thing, he has worked hard, but he still hasn't done it well.
"Ass!"
Qin Wei stopped the guy and said with a smile: "Is this to drown your sorrows with wine?" As for ......"
"Ouyang Xiu is also a man, he should shoulder the responsibility on his shoulders and rely on people to help, and his bones will be soft in the future...... If you want to live a good life, you have to work your own, so what is there to say! ”
Qin Wei drove him away, and Ye Shuangchou sat down again.
"Just now someone was called to ...... tempted Ouyang Xiu with money, but the young man turned a blind eye...... Sure enough, he treats money like dung, no wonder His Majesty values him. ”
Ye Shuangchou's analysis was exchanged for laughter.
"Haha! There is no one in this world who does not love money, but for some people, there are more important things to protect than money. ”
Qin Wei smiled like a wise man who looked down on ordinary people.
Ye Shuangchou's face was pale, and he was first stimulated by his disdainful appearance.
The ghost fire in his eyes turned into wildfire, and the anger was gradually accumulating.
"What are you laughing at? Isn't it ridiculous? ”
Qin Wei looked at him and nodded, "It's ridiculous...... I thought you had at least a little bit of understanding of human nature, but I didn't expect you to know nothing......"
Ye Shuangchou said coldly: "A certain only knows that human nature is cowardly, in front of a certain person, a seemingly powerful person will only cry and beg, just want to die quickly." As for the human heart...... The human heart is vicious, like beasts. ”
Qin Wei looked at him and said regretfully: "That's because the environment you have always lived in is dark, so you will only look at problems from a dark angle, but you don't understand the emotions in the world." ”
"Get out and talk!"
Ye Shuangchou threw a small amount of money on the table, the two left the stall, and the two walked side by side.
"Your father used to be a very good student in Bianliang, and the direction he gave you guidance was naturally the road to Kangzhuang...... So-and-so didn't have that much luck. ”
No matter how ruthless a person is, he has longings and weaknesses.
Qin Wei didn't know what Ye Shuangchou's weakness was, but obviously he also admired people with ability.
"It has nothing to do with life experience......
He looked at Ye Shuangchou and said, "It's just that you don't understand the thoughts of the people at the bottom, so you use what you think is a gorgeous means to tempt Ouyang Xiu......"
For some people, only the reaction under the inducement is the most real.
But they ignore the true nature of human nature.
He looked at Ye Shuangchou seriously, and then said: "If he hadn't resisted the temptation just now, while you had completed Your Majesty's task, you would probably have despised him in your heart, thinking that this kind of mercenary person who can be driven is not worthy of Your Majesty's sideways glance at all." ”
"But he didn't agree, but you were at a loss, and speculated on his thoughts, probably malicious......"
If the good intentions are not accepted, the giver will be disappointed.
Then began those extreme speculations: this man is afraid that there is something wrong with his brain!
Ye Shuangchou looked at him and said coldly: "What you like the most is to figure out people's hearts, so you are close to Wang Zhen and Wang Yaochen, and you would even rather coexist with Zhang Zhibai than get too close to Lu Yijian...... Both of you are trusted courtiers of His Majesty, and if you join forces, you will be much better off in the court, but you are not ......"
On his stiff face, he even pulled out the arc of meaning, and said, "Is it because you think Lu Yijian is not good?" Or do you feel that he is not worthy of your closeness? ”
Qin Wei paused for a moment and said with a dry smile: "There is no matter." ”
He didn't dislike Lu Yijian, but he just felt that this person sometimes didn't do things very well, and he always liked to do some secret actions.
Like the last time I was in the casino.
Everyone can obviously talk about it in the open, but they have to do some secret means.
Such people are mostly selfish.
On the premise of not touching the interests of both sides, they can be allies and even brothers.
But once it involves self-interest, such a person cannot be deeply acquainted.
Although Zhang Zhibai was promoted by the Queen Mother, his style of doing things is much brighter than that of Lu Yijian, at least he is clear when he makes a move.
"I just don't like those methods of manipulating people's hearts, it's not a gentleman's doing."
Qin went to get on his horse.
Ye Shuangchou's subordinates beside him looked away before he said to him: "Everyone knows that Lu Xiang's reputation in the court is well-known, but this person said ......"
Ye Shuangchou glanced at Ouyang Xiu's mother and son, who were preparing to go home after washing their clothes, and said, "It has a good reputation...... Oh, yes! Everyone said so, but Qin Wei didn't think so......"
He went all the way back to the palace, and Zhao Zhen was already waiting.
"Didn't make it?"
"Yes."
"Why?"
Zhao Zhen thought that they were not doing things well, so he was a little annoyed.
He bowed his head and said, "Zhao Yunrang said to find an easy job for Yao, but Yao refused." The minister sent people to tempt Ouyang Xiu with money, but he avoided it like a snake and scorpion...... The minister is guilty. ”
He knelt on the ground, but Zhao Zhen smiled.
"Why is that?"
He glanced at Ye Shuangchou and said, "The person you sent is fierce and vicious, scaring their mother and son?" But he didn't, he looked at Bahu, but he was a kind ...... in his bones."
Ye Shuangchou lowered his head and said, "The minister doesn't know, Qin Wei seems to know, but he refuses to say it." ”
Zhao Zhen said angrily: "Call him!" ”
Then Qin Wei was called into the palace.
"I want to know why."
This is to prepare for cultivating Ouyang Xiu?
Before the emperor wants to focus on cultivating a person, he must figure out his heart and test his character.
In history, Ouyang Xiu was originally a supreme minister, and it still hasn't changed, and gold will always shine.
Qin Wei thought it was a big deal, so he sighed: "Your Majesty, it's actually just a sentence...... There will be no pie in the sky for no reason, and there will be no free lunch. ”
Zhao Zhen shook his head and said, "What is this called......
He just thought about it, and then ordered: "Go to someone, I remember that Ouyang Xiu has two good classmates, go and ask the two of them." ”
The emperor was serious, and Ye Shuangchou immediately went to arrange this matter.
Qin Wei wanted to leave, and felt that this matter was Zhao Zhen's idleness.
But Zhao Zhen didn't agree.
He had no choice but to talk to Chen Xumao outside without a word of nonsense.
"Has Your Majesty been in a bad mood lately?"
Inquiring about the emperor's privacy is a taboo.
Xu Mao didn't scold, just looked at both sides, and sighed with a smile when he saw that no one was there, "Young people, I always feel that I have to do something, Your Majesty is in a hurry......"
He didn't say what Zhao Zhen was anxious about, and Qin Wei smiled noncommittally.
"But there's no urgency."
Xu Mao nodded, and sighed with a smile: "That's what I said, but you look at Your Majesty's appearance, obviously he has endured it for too long, if you don't vent, I'm afraid I'll hold my breath......"
Don't you just feel that there are too few people available at your disposal?
is too insecure and wants to do a career, so Zhao Zhen is a little radical.
After empathizing with him a few times, he felt that Ouyang Xiu's character was good, so he had to focus on cultivating.
But cultivation is cultivation, but the emperor always subconsciously thinks about people in crooked places, and the more he can't figure it out, the more he thinks crookedly, and he can't even drag it back.
This is the classic persecution paranoia...... The emperor is a psychopath!
He rarely values anything, because he feels that he is the only one in heaven and on earth, so everything else is not worth his attention.
But once you value it, you are afraid of betrayal by the other party.
Qin Wei also went through a long period of testing before he really gained Zhao Zhen's trust.
However, the difference between him and Ouyang Xiu is that in the face of absolute ability, all suspicions will naturally dissipate, in a word...... If you have two hearts, why do you carry your head and work hard for you?
Therefore, Zhao Zhen's trust in Qin Wei is very pure.
But in the face of Ouyang Xiu...... He failed.
This ordinary mother and son actually defeated the emperor......
Qin Wei only felt a little funny.
