Chapter 2272: Prosperity, wealth and honor are all I want

Wang Shen'ai stared at Tao Yuanming motionless, looking at this smiling man with a confident man who had everything under control between his brows. After a long time, he sighed softly: "Tao Yuanming, what are you doing?

What is the purpose of trying so hard to get close to Liu Yu? You should understand that Liu Yu is the love of my life. No matter what our identities and positions are, we will never be as incompatible as Murong Lan.

To the point of life and death."

Tao Yuanming smiled slightly: "I don't have any purpose. I just want to climb up and be rich and powerful. Queen Wang, you were born in a wealthy family since you were a child. You have been well-dressed and well-fed. You have never lived a life of real poverty. But I,

I have grown up in hunger and poverty since I was a child. I have never spent a day living alone in a thatched hut in the wilderness, listening to the howling of wolves and owls around me, and listening to the growling of my stomach.

I don’t want to go through it again.”

Wang Shen'ai sighed softly: "Liu Yu has lived like this since he was a child. Do you want to say that because he was born in a poor family, you want to follow him?"

Tao Yuanming shook his head: "No, I follow Liu Yu because Liu Yu now has the power of the empire. It can be said that he is the first person in the Jin Dynasty. Whoever has the highest power, I will work for him. Just like Huan

When Xuan was in power, I assisted him, but now that Liu Yu rules the world, I will naturally follow Liu Yu. This truth should not be difficult for Queen Wang to understand."

A cold glint flashed in Wang Shen'ai's eyes: "But now that you are still nominally Huanxuan's man, you have already betrayed him. Even earlier, when Huanxuan had not lost power, you were dealing with his enemies.

, is this the way to serve as a minister?"

Tao Yuanming said with a smile: "The monarch can kill, expel, and depose his ministers at will. Couldn't the ministers respond in advance? Treat me like a soldier of the country, and I will repay you as a soldier of the country. If you regard me as a enemy of the country, then I can only treat you as a enemy of the enemy."

When I was in Jingzhou, I served Huanxuan and helped him pacify Yin Zhongkan and eliminate Yang Quanqi. However, he didn't even give me a formal official position.

It was too powerful to make him alert, so he ignored me. When the situation became serious, he asked me to come out to clean up the mess, and even threatened my life. Do you think, is such a monarch worthy of my service? I do it for myself.

What's wrong with planning a retreat early?"

Wang Shen'ai smiled slightly: "You can really make yourself look reasonable by arguing like this. Unfortunately, this won't work here. Mr. Tao, you are a person without a position. You only think about your own future. What's wrong with you?"

Huan Xuan is like this, he is like this to Liu Tingyun, and he is like this to me."

Tao Yuanming said calmly: "But I can express my thoughts frankly in front of the Queen. I just hope that the Queen can understand my position and difficulties. I just want to protect myself, and even more, I want wealth. If Liu Yu can distinguish rewards and punishments

, trust me, then I will do my best to assist him and help him. However, since I have established such a friendship with Queen Wang, if there is anything you, or the high-ranking family behind you, need me to do, I will

I will definitely try my best.”

Wang Shennai laughed: "Then if I ask you to kill Liu Tingyun now to prove your friendship with me, will you do it?"

Tao Yuanming smiled and shook his head: "Of course not, because Liu Tingyun is relying on Liu Yi now, which is a useful way for me. Maybe one day, Liu Yu won't want me, and I at least have a way out.

.Besides, Liu Tingyun can also contact and win over a considerable number of aristocratic families, especially those in the middle and upper classes. In fact, at this point, there is still a possibility for you and her to join forces in the future."

A trace of anger flashed in Wang Shen'ai's eyes, and he slammed the teacup in his hand on the table: "Hmph, this woman betrayed me and framed me so much, how could I possibly cooperate with her again? What I hate most in this world is

betray."

Tao Yuanming laughed: "Murong Lan also betrayed you and robbed you of Liu Yu, but for the sake of the overall situation, couldn't you put aside your grudges with her and cooperate temporarily? Queen Wang, you are a smart person. There is no one in this world.

Eternal grievances, only eternal interests, and your interests are the top aristocratic families in Dajin, the Xie family, the Wang family, even if it is love with your brother Yu, it can only be ranked second. You need to have

The power that checks and balances Liu Yu may be Liu Tingyun’s side that you hate the most.”

Wang Shen'ai pondered for a long time and said slowly: "Then what you want is just glory and wealth?"

Tao Yuanming smiled and said: "Besides my talent, what else can I have? Even my ancestor Kan Gong was looked down upon by the high-ranking family in Jiankang, so how could I mention the Tao family's name? After Liu Yu defeated Huan Xuan, Jingzhou

He will completely overwhelm Yangzhou, and what he will establish will be an unprecedentedly powerful central court, which will then suppress the aristocratic families internally and delegate power, and attack the masses externally to make contributions. This is when people with ability can make great achievements. As long as I can make contributions at this time

I surrender and make great achievements under Liu Yu's account in the future. Is it not too difficult for Guangzong and Yaozong to be a highly respected minister?"

Speaking of this, Tao Yuanming looked at Wang Shen'ai with a meaningful look in his eyes: "In the final analysis, I want the Tao family to become the Wang family in the future, and a top wealthy family like the Xie family to allow my descendants to enjoy the same

With such wealth as the Queen and your brothers and sisters, what else can I pursue?"

Wang Shennai nodded: "In this case, I believe you once. As long as you can take Yin Zhongwen and send me back to Liu Yi this time, then after I return to Jiankang, I will definitely recommend you to Liu Yu.

As for my relationship with him, there is no problem for you to start by joining the army or being the director of Cancao, but after that, it depends on you whether you can get the wealth you want and make the Tao family become a wealthy family like the Xie family and the Wang family.

It’s up to you.”

A trace of uncontrollable ecstasy flashed across Tao Yuanming's face, and it disappeared in an instant. He stood up and formally bowed his waist to Wang Shen'ai: "Thank you very much for your support. Yuan Ming will do his best to repay your kindness.

"

Wang Shen'ai waved his hand: "Don't talk about kindness. You and I have a clear relationship of interest. You are useful to me and I am useful to you. But remember, after you come to Brother Yu's account, you are

His people, whatever their escape route or that choice, it is best to put them away and stop interacting with Liu Tingyun. Liu Muzhi has a very strong intelligence ability. These little moves of yours cannot escape his eyes. Once let go

If Brother Yu thinks you have different intentions, or even provokes an internal fight among the giants of their Beifu, you will be dead, and even the gods will not be able to save you."
