Chapter 12 The mountains and rain are about to come and the wind is full of buildings

Qin Lei saw the man clearly and said in a breath: "Mr. Guantao hasn't had enough fun yet?"

The Buyi Guantao nodded and said, "I'm going to bother Your Highness." After that, he sat on the shaft of the car, closing his eyes to rest.

It seems that the heart-killing words have never appeared.

When others saw it, they thought that Qiu Fengke was going to Xiaomao's mansion to eat free food again, and they all cast sympathetic eyes at Qin Lei.

~~~~~~~~~~

Half an hour later, the hostess was in the mansion.

There were fennel beans, beef sauce, peanuts, and braised duck tongues on the table. Qin Lei poured wine for Mr. Guantao, then sat down and looked at him quietly. The powder on his face was wiped off, and he also changed into casual clothes. He was refreshed and Rong Ziying was never as fat and ignorant as he had just passed.

Mr. Guantao also looked at Qin Lei with a smile, his eyes clear and there was no trace of intoxication.

The two of them looked at each other for a long time, their expressions became more and more strange. Finally, they laughed loudly together, making them shaking the ground, making them irritated.

Amid the laughter, Tieying couldn't help asking, "Why is Your Highness laughing?"

Qin Lei calmed down a little and hissed: "I laugh at that ridiculous person."

Tieying turned to Guantao again and asked, "Why do you laugh, sir?"

Guan Taoqiang stopped laughing and gasped, "I laughed at that ridiculous thing!" He supported the small table with both hands, leaned forward, stared at Qin Lei's eyes, and said word by word: "Your Highness is about to be in trouble, and even pretending to be stupid can't save you!"

Qin Lei curled his lips, picked up the wine glass and took a sip, and sneered: "Sir, isn't it? The old man Shangguan has already had a murderous intention. You might as well choose a good day to leave Shangjing."

Tieying said strangely: "What day is that?" Guantao was also very curious.

"On the death day." Qin Lei put a fennel bean and savored it carefully.

Guan Tao sat back in dejection and said with a slight smile: "Yes, when the student leaves Beijing, it will be the day of his life."

The room was quiet again, and only Qin Lei chewed the fennel beans.

Guantao's heart was turbulent. When he was young, he went down the mountain and came to Dongqi. Naturally, he was preparing to do something vigorously: to support hegemony, to leave a name in history, and to be inferior to a high-ranking official and to be granted a title, to be a wife and a son. It is not difficult to achieve the latter with his own abilities, but who would have thought that after coming to Beijing, he would fall into such a land...

Qi respected the ancient times, advocated the style of Wei and Jin Dynasties, abolished the imperial examinations since the Sui and Tang Dynasties, and re-adopted officials with the nine-rank Zhongzheng system. Therefore, the high-ranking clans monopolized the court and controlled almost all important official positions, and only gave some positions with trivial affairs and fewer opportunities to promotion to the so-called "common race". The people in Guantao Mountains and Fields were common people who could no longer be ordinary, and they could not join the army like other common people and started their own business by relying on military merits. Therefore, they ran around and were unable to use them repeatedly. In the end, they were forced to make a living, and became a Qingke in the Prime Minister's Mansion. After more than ten years, they were depressed and despaired, and preferred delicious food, and had a lot of food. They had eaten a lot of food, which made them famous as the "Autumn Wind Guest".

If you keep eating for free, you will not have any risk of your life. After all, the nobles of Qi are proud of raising diners. But this Guantao has a somewhat honest temper. He feels very sorry for the boss, so he spent five years and spent countless energy to visit the villages, check the information, and wrote "Zou's Proposal on the Improvement of Qi State" and presented it to the prime minister, which also caused him a murderous disaster.

Prime Minister Shangguan read the "Zou Yi" and was right in line with the current shortcomings of Qi. If he could fully implement it, he would teach Qi that the old trees and new branches would be the most hopeful country to unify China again. The old fox also knew that if the reform was based on the "Zou Yi", it would touch many vested interests and cause a rebound. With his century-old reputation of the Shangguan family, he was not afraid of his power in the court, but if he took charge personally, it would be difficult to protect the family's interests too much, which would also have an impact on his own people's expectations.

Therefore, he wanted a puppet to resist the attack so that he could move forward and retreat easily. At the critical moment, Prime Minister Shangguan could also become a hero who turned the tide. He thought that Guantao, the proposer of the plan, was the best candidate, so he tempted Guantao to become an official with a high position. In the prime minister's heart, a person who had not become Shangguan for more than ten years must be very hungry, even if he knew that the candied fruit was wrapped in poison, he would swallow it without hesitation.

However, Guantao is not a normal person. He was angry at the Prime Minister's ruthlessness. As a meticulous strategist, he had already broken down the reform into several stages in the "Zou Proposal" in order to control the rebound within the acceptable range of the Prime Minister. Who knew that the old fox wanted to eat meat but was unwilling to dye fishy, ​​but he was not willing to accept the risks at all, and he had to pass them all on himself!

It was a little bumpy storm for the Prime Minister, but it was enough to drown a commoner eight times. Being an official would have to be a destiny to be a good person. He had not yet married a wife.

Today, he was completely shattering his face with the Prime Minister. If he were not willing to let anyone know his own domestic and foreign affairs, let alone the next policy plan designer is out of his control.

Guantao naturally would not sit still and wait for death. He knew the recent movement in Beijing. He wanted to meet the iron boss with his hands and eyes behind him through Xiaomao to see if he could get a glimmer of life for himself. Who would have thought that by chance, he would see the master and servant who pretended to be pigs and eat tigers.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

After a long time, Guan Tao continued: "It's ridiculous that Shangguan Yunhe is not only inconsistent with others, but also has a dizzy eye. He actually treats the real dragon as a loach. His Highness uses good means to persuade the Empress Dowager of Qi. The national teacher pleads for you together. Prime Minister Shangguan actually thinks you are ignorant. It's ridiculous. A few years later, His Highness will be the one who destroys Qi."

Qin Lei shook his head and said, "Then he has to live until several years later. Didn't the gentleman just now say that the boy is doomed?"

Tieying glared at Guantao and interrupted, "We have already deceived it from that old man. Your Highness said they will beat drums and drums to send us back."

Guantao also put a fennel bean on it and joked: "I'm sending you to Huangquan Road."

Qin Lei stood up and bowed, and said respectfully: "Sir, please teach me."

Guantao stood up and returned the salute, and said seriously: "If Zhao Wujiu had not been Zhao, your highness would have come true. But Duke Yum and Prime Minister Shangguan had different opinions and tended to rely on war to awaken the self-intoxication of Qi people. In addition, the Yum Army's lineup was strong and it was never defeated. Therefore, your country started a war at this time and hit Duke Yum's wish. Do you think he would watch His Highness return safely?"

Qin Lei continued, "Will Zhao Wujiu oppose my return to China?" Tie Ying also looked at Guantao anxiously.

Guantao shook his head and said, "No, if you disagree with Prime Minister Shangguan in the court, you will be a bit of a saliva. The martial people are poor and most of them will lose the lawsuit. They will choose a more direct and more in line with the identity of the martial people..."
