Chapter 119: The Deal Between Uncle and Nephew
He Shen glanced at his second uncle Chang Rong a little speechlessly, he really didn't know how his own cheap uncle could be so stingy.
“…………”
Next, to Chang Rong's surprise, He Shen's next request was actually beyond his imagination.
He Shen actually asked him to follow the connections and favors accumulated in the army by two generations of Niu Hulu Oroershan and Niu Hulu Changbao.
Looking at the second uncle Chang Rong, who was full of doubts and wanted to speak, He Shen smiled slightly and spoke.
"You want to ask, since I have such a force and the ambition to seize military power, why don't I take the road of a military general who has made meritorious contributions in the army, right?
He Shen saw through the thoughts in the second uncle Chang Rong's heart at a glance, and immediately pointed it out unceremoniously.
When the second uncle Chang Rong heard this, he nodded subconsciously and snorted.
When he reacted, his old face couldn't help but turn red, so he wasn't embarrassed.
"Hehe, I guess the second uncle is thinking about it now, the Green Camp Army is full of my grandfather and my father's cronies."
"If I take the road of a military general, if I mix in the army, I will rise to the top and rise to the top, and I won't be able to ...... at all."
"You can even be a teenager, right?"
………
"Well, isn't that so?
Second Uncle Chang Rong heard the strangeness in He Shen's words, and looked at him with a strange expression.
"Hehe, if this road is really so easy to walk, why don't you take it yourself, second uncle?"
"Is it because you are afraid of death, second uncle, that you didn't join the army to serve?"
He Shen did not rush to explain, but directly ridiculed the second uncle Chang Rong for being greedy for life and afraid of death, which made the second uncle Chang Rong very angry.
"People who are forty or fifty years old, they only think about the present, not the future."
"Second uncle, you don't have to think about it, if I take the road of a military general, I will go very smoothly, stay up for decades, and become a national prince."
"One Three Kingdoms, Three Worlds and Three Princes, do we want to be Wang Mang who usurped the Han Dynasty and became self-reliant, or do we want to be Yang Jian, Emperor Wen of Sui on behalf of Zhou Lisui..."
"The one in the palace, can he feel at ease in the face of this situation?"
Looking at the stunned second uncle Chang Rong, He Shen's eyes were full of contempt.
After sneering, he didn't bother to say more, and let this good second uncle guess the rest of the things.
After He Shen said this, the second uncle Chang Rongrong was taken into the ditch in an instant.
Following He Shen's inference, the second uncle Chang Rong made up for it by himself, and after a burst of brainstorming, he suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.
Immediately, when he looked at He Shen again, his eyes had changed.
No wonder his little nephew, who is full of amazing force, chose to take the same path as him, it turns out that he is worried about this...
“……………”
"Father......"
At this moment, Chang Rong was in a trance, and his mood was extremely complicated.
Today's nephew and Shen's words reminded him of an old incident that had been going on for decades, and he was so shocked that his hairs stood on end, and he was cold.
Back then, when he was young, he chose to abandon martial arts and follow literature, and everyone in the family was against it, only his old father Niu Hulu Oroershan stood on his side and chose to support it with all his might.
Decades have passed since this incident, and Chang Rong has not understood why his old father, Niu Hulu Ershan, was on his side in the first place...
is worthy of being the first generation of Zhenguo Gong, Niu Hulu Oroershan is really not simple, he actually got a glimpse of the emperor's mind early...
The eldest son is from the martial arts, and the second son is from the text, pressing the treasure on both sides, which can be called deep thinking and deep calculation.
And under the protection of his father and brother, he is like an ignorant person who doesn't know anything, doing everything, seemingly smart but stupid.
“…………”
It is said that walking in the rivers and lakes is the most dangerous, but who knows, the rivers and lakes are just a place for temples and courts!
The temple court is the real vast and boundless sea, and it is a complete country.
The temple court is cruel, with its own unique rules of survival and elimination, its gameplay is strange, but the ultimate goal is only one, that is, to kill political enemies.
There is only life and death between political enemies and political enemies, there is no middle choice, and those who survive will always have unlimited scenery and power, while those who die will not even have anyone to help collect their bones!
In the imperial court, the officials who carried the bridge were not so easy to be, and if they were not careful, they would be in danger of capsizing...
And most of the fate of capsizing is the destruction of families, the ruins of reputation, and even the death of the nine clans.
The court is not as good as imagined, standing on top of the court, calculating, digging pits, assassinations, poisoning, etc., happen from time to time...
If you want to mix in the big dye vat of the imperial court, you must learn to be ruthless, and those who are not ruthless have become corpses.
Whether it is a corrupt official who is greedy or a clean official who is dedicated to the public, they have a scale in their hearts to weigh the situation and the pros and cons.
The line between black and white was very blurred in the imperial court, or there was never real light and complete darkness.
In terms of weighing the situation, pros and cons, clean officials are often better able to grasp the subtle gaps than corrupt officials.
Because since ancient times, there have been many corrupt officials and few clean officials, and in the face of a large group of corrupt officials, if the clean officials want to gain a foothold in the court, their scheming often has to surpass the corrupt officials.
In fact, in this world, there was no imperial court, but with the existence of people, the birth of the concept of upper and lower pyramids, and the emergence of the concept of emperor, there was the so-called imperial court.
Since the formation of the imperial court, its rules have never changed, and the officials above the court still follow the way of the right game of the fittest.
"Figured it out, huh? My good second uncle..."
Looking at the second uncle Chang Rong, who had an extremely serious expression, He Shen almost couldn't help laughing, but on the surface, he said in a serious manner.
“…………”
Second Uncle Chang Rong replied with a complicated face: "I figured it out, of course I figured it out." ”
In the two generations before and after the Hefu, there were two generals in the army in a row, and if there was a third one, and he was still very young, only a teenager...
The Qianlong Emperor in the palace is definitely not able to sleep well, and the Hefu may be in danger of overturning at any time.
The butt decides the head, as a member of the family, hearing this, the second uncle Chang Rong couldn't help but nod silently, and his mood was extremely heavy.
However, after thinking about it, Chang Rong felt that he had been tricked again.
“…………”
"If you don't take the road of killing generals, what's the use of those connections and favors in the army..."
"You little sixth, you lied to me again..."
Thinking of this, the second uncle Chang Rong's heart suddenly ignited with raging anger, he stared at He Shen who was leisurely drinking tea, and said angrily.
"Since you can't develop in the army, why do you ask me for connections and favors in the army?"
………
"Haha, my good second uncle, no matter how stupid a person is, he can't be so stupid."
"Although I can't go down in person and use these connections and favors to worship the king, I can give it to other people around me, or use it as a bargaining chip to trade with others..."
He Shen's words were extremely sharp, and he made the second uncle Chang Rong very angry when he opened his mouth.
“…………”
"Forget it, forget it, since that's the case, then let's settle it like this."
For the sake of the interests of the gold and silver mountains, the second uncle Chang Rong faced many humiliations from his nephew, and actually endured it stubbornly.
When He Shen heard this, he stretched out his hand with a smile on his face, and swore with his second uncle Chang Rong to high-five, and made an agreement.
The second uncle Chang Rong was responsible for persuading his mother, Hua Lao Taijun, to hand over the military connections and favors in his hands, and He Shen handed over ten percent of the shares of Qiaogong Pavilion to the second uncle Chang Rong.
“……………”
Seeing that the business of Jinshan and Yinshan was negotiated, the second uncle Chang Rong couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief.
Unconsciously, the expectations in his heart have been greatly reduced, and there is no arrogance of the lion opening his mouth before.
“…………”
"Okay, okay, the business is done, and I'm not interested in continuing to talk to you second uncle!"
After talking about this business, He Shen put down the teacup, got up and left, not dragging his feet at all.
When he went out, he also turned around and admonished: "By the way, second uncle, I respect you as my elder, so I tolerate you like this, you still have to be careful in the future."
After speaking, ignoring the embarrassed look on the face of the second uncle Chang Rong, He Shen left here directly in style.
“…………”
And the second uncle Chang Rong's side, after finally stabilizing the mind of turning the river and the sea in his heart, he immediately hurriedly returned to Hefu, found his old mother Hua Lao Taijun, and told him about this time.
…………
"The eldest son who has always been retained is really not simple, although it is an unfilial descendant..."
"However, to a certain extent, it can also be called a young man, and his mind is like a demon..."
"Since you have promised your nephew that you want to exchange the military connections and favors left over from two generations for the 10% shares, then you can exchange it......"
"I'm old, I don't have the energy, and I don't want to care about the things between you anymore..."
The white-haired Mrs. Hua hesitated for a long time and sighed after hearing the words of her second son.
“…………”
The other side!
Suburban lodge.
"My brother is here, it's not comparable, it's not comparable..."
After He Shen finished the work at hand, he went back to his base camp directly.
At this time, He Lin, who was wrestling with a group of big men in the open space of the manor, immediately shouted when he saw his brother He Shen again.
The group of big men surrounding him immediately stopped after hearing He Lin's words.
“……”
"Brother went out this time, nothing happened, right?"
On Helin's side, after several years of careful recuperation, her body has obviously improved a lot, she is not struggling to ride a horse and shoot arrows, and her mental state is obviously much better.
"It's okay, it's okay, the person who can take advantage of your brother hasn't been born yet?"
He Shen waved his hand, patted He Lin's shoulder as he walked inside, and said, "Let's go, let's go in first and talk again!" ”
