Chapter 518 Undercurrent

"Before dawn?" Zhang Shao was surprised: "So anxious?"

"Well, you're hesitant, but someone is waiting for me to reply." Guan Xing smiled proudly: "Don't blame the brothers for not reminding you, there are many people who want to support Ziyu."

"Who is so enthusiastic?"

Guan Xing smiled and said, "The reason you hesitate is because you are holding the Prime Minister's thigh now. But you have to know that there are many people who don't have the chance to hold the Prime Minister's thigh, so they have to hug Ziyu's thigh."

Zhang Shao changed his color in shock: "Those people..."

"What's wrong with those people?" Guan Xing glanced at Zhang Shao casually: "They are willing to pay, can the Prime Minister stop him?"

Zhang Shao raised his eyebrows and suddenly thought of something: "Yes, why didn't the Prime Minister stop him? Could this be a pitfall?"

"Wuling was originally a pit, but it is obvious that Ziyu is good at jumping into the pit." Guan Xing shook the wine glass in his hand: "When Ziyu was alone and could jump out of the pit Wuling, and now he has nearly 10,000 elite troops.

, What kind of pit can stop him? Jixian, as a brother, I will remind you for the last time. When Ziyu gains a foothold in Jingzhou and opens up the situation, you come up to help, and he may not be able to take you seriously

.At that time, it will be no problem between you and me. If you want to compare yourself with me as a relative, I think you can think about the situation of the Wu family first. Some things don’t need to wait in front of you

You can see clearly. Do you think so?"

...

Chen's study room, the door was closed, Chen Zhi sat behind the desk, stroked the short beard under the jaw with one hand, and placed the other hand on the desk, constantly pinching and placing the knuckles, just like outside.

Firecrackers.

Chen Yi sat opposite him, looking at his brother with a smile.

"Gong Wei, don't look at me like that." Chen Zhi said angrily: "Have you been with those barbarians for too long and forgot the etiquette you should have?"

Chen Yi smiled and said, "I dare to ask my brother. Where did I behave rude?"

Chen Zhi was speechless for a moment. After a moment, he shouted in anger: "You are rude to talk to me like this."

"Brother, it's not a gentleman to take his anger on others." Chen Yi shook his head calmly: "You are in a mess, and you probably can't make any good decisions now. I'll go and drink with my cousins ​​and wait for you to calm down.

Let’s talk about it later.”

"Who said I was in trouble?" Chen Zhi said angrily: "Sit down."

Chen Zhi spoke tough, but his tone was already soft. As Chen Yi said, he was indeed a little confused. When he asked Chen Yi to go to Wuling, he had almost no hope, so the first thing he said to care about Chen Yi was

If the situation is wrong, I will go back to Chengdu immediately. But unexpectedly, in just two or three months, Wei Ba actually won, forcing Wu Jun to sit down and negotiate, and cede Wuling County. Chen Yi also became Wei Ba's confidant.

.

Chen Yi completed the task more than he could. Chen Zhi should be happy, but he couldn't be happy at all. Because Wei Ba may no longer have his place. Li Zhi, who is similar to him in all aspects, has already entered the Wei family before him.

The manor was also valued by Wei Ba. Chen Yi came back this time and had the task of bringing Li Ji to Wuling.

This is a chess game, and it is a chess. The first one is a treasure, and the second one is a grass. How could the arrogant Chen Zhi be willing to fall under Li Zhi, and even be under his younger brother Chen Yi?

"Don't be too happy too early. Wei Ba was able to defeat Wu's army because Sun Quan made a fool of himself and the army went deep into the mountains, so Wei Ba seized the opportunity. Those were nothing, but the real test began. The Prime Minister wanted to attack the north.

, All the wealth, grain, and weapons will be distributed to Guanzhong, and a grain of grain or a pound of catkin will not be transported to Wuling. No matter how capable Wei Ba is, can he turn into grain or catkins? He lacks food and clothing

Those barbarians are willing to suffer with him? At that time, as long as Sun Quan is willing to produce some blood, he, the god general, will immediately show his true form. Why can he die?”

"Of course, my brother's worries cannot be said to be unreasonable, but Wei Ba also has his solution to the problem."

"What's his solution?"

"I can't guess what he is doing." Chen Yi smiled: "If I have the ability of him, I don't have to listen to him."

"And!" Chen Zhi snorted disdainfully, turned his head, deliberately not looking at Chen Yi. Chen Yi lowered his head and smiled secretly. He knew his brother's temper the most. He thought for a while: "Brother, Prime Minister," he said, "Brother, Prime Minister

Why didn’t you follow the army in the Northern Expedition? In theory, he attaches importance to the transformation of military ordnance, so you should have a great use."

"How do I know?" Chen Zhi sighed helplessly: "It is probably because he has a profound attainment in this area and doesn't need someone like me."

Chen Yi raised his eyebrows: "The Prime Minister is responsible for all kinds of things every day, will he still be responsible for these meticulous matters by himself?"

"It's all done by yourself, you don't know." Chen Zhi curled his lips and didn't say anything. He originally wanted to take this opportunity to show Zhuge Liang his abilities, but he never thought that Zhuge Liang had no chance at all, even the manufacturing of weapons.

He didn't let him enter the workshop. This made Chen Zhi very excited, and he couldn't see where his future was.

"Brother, come with me to Wuling. With your ability, Shizhong Wei will definitely reuse you."

"Wei Ba? Ha, forget it, his mechanical skills are unique in the world. How can my little tricks catch his eye?"

Chen Yi shook his head: "Brother, you are wrong. Wei Shizhong's mechanical skills are indeed unique in the world, but he will not do everything personally like the Prime Minister, and he does not agree with the Prime Minister's approach."

"Is that true?" Chen Zhi hesitated for a moment: "But..."

"But he already has people like Li Zhi around him, right?"

Chen Zhi glared: "You are just smart."

"We brothers have a fight, how can I not know what you think?" Chen Yi smiled gently: "If you are really worried about this, then I can advise you to rest assured. Shizhong Wei said, like Li Qi and his brother

Such talents will never be too many, but only too few. Of course, if you only like that official position, there may be conflicts, but..."

"Wait." Chen Zhi interrupted Chen Yi: "What conflicts are there besides official positions? Why is the prime minister suppressing the non-Jingxiang faction? Isn't it because the official positions are limited, so we should give priority to satisfying the people of Jingxiang?"

Chen Yi was silent for a moment and looked at Chen Zhi quietly. Chen Zhi was uncomfortable all over by him. He wanted to avoid his eyes, but he refused to show weakness, so he had to hold on.

"Brother. When Wei Shizhong was in Xiangyang, he used a modified warship to defeat Zhu Ran, the Wu army and other heavy generals, dizzy."

Chen Zhi thought for a while and asked in confusion: "What does this... have to do with what we just said?"

"The reason is very simple. The size of an official position is actually not important. What matters is whether the technology is advanced." Chen Yi said slowly: "In front of a sharp crossbow, even if there are twenty or thirty generals, there are also shooting.

Become a hedgehog.”

Chen Zhi was a little confused and didn't quite understand what Chen Yi meant. Chen Yi didn't explain and stood up and bowed: "If the brother is for the sake of a single official position, then don't go to Wuling. If nothing unexpected happens,

Wei Shizhong himself is just a prefect of Wuling, and at most he will add a miscellaneous general. He cannot give you any prominent official positions. If your brother wants to make achievements with superb skills and leave his name in history, I suggest that you consider it."

After saying that, he turned around and left, Chen Zhi did not keep him. He savored Chen Yi's words and seemed to have figured out something. But he couldn't grasp the key points. If he didn't fight for an official position, why would he fight for? A real man worked hard for a lifetime,

I just want to be a minister, a marquis and abide by the land, glorify the ancestors, and be kind to the descendants? What's the point of not having an official position?

"This guy has been cheating too much, and he speaks divinely." Chen Zhi snorted angrily.

The next morning, Chen Zhi waited for Chen Yi to come to pay New Year's greetings, but he didn't wait until he asked. After asking, he found out that Chen Yi went out to pay New Year's greetings. He was very unhappy and asked someone to look for him. After a while, his family rewarded him.

Yi went to Lai Min's house.

"Lai Min?" Chen Zhi frowned and spoke for a long time.

...

Lai Min looked at Chen Yi, her gray eyebrows trembled, and she wanted to laugh but didn't laugh. He felt that Chen Yi was crazy. Chen Yi brought Wei Ba's oral message. Wei Ba was about to run a school in Wuling, and wanted to invite Lai Min

Go to be a professor.

Wei Ba was crazy. Most of Wuling was in the mountains. Almost all the people Wei Ba could control were barbarians. It was a problem for him to eat. Where did he get the financial resources to build a school? Even if the school was built, where would the students come from? Could it be that I

Go teach those barbarians to study?

"Lai Gong, Wei Shizhong said that saints have no distinction, and Wuxi Man is also a descendant of Huangdi, not a person who eats raw meat and drinks blood. It is precisely because of their ignorance that scholars like Lai Gong need to educate them. Jingzhou was originally a place of cultural prosperity.

, However, Jiangnan has never been stained with the style of scholars. If Duke Lai is willing to condescend to Wuling, his merits will be no less than those of Wen Weng in Bashu. In the future, there will be a seat for Duke Lai in the Pantheon of the future."

Lai Min's heart moved, stroking the tip of her beard, and hesitated. When reading the book of a saint, the most hope for is to establish virtue and meritorious words. He was born with a bad temper. He grew older, but his official career was getting younger and younger, and he basically made contributions.

It has nothing to do with him. If he could promote education like Wen Weng and be commemorated by later generations, it would be considered morality. Unlike Zhuge Liang's family, Wei Ba and his son were born as warriors, he must have been a fellow scholar, a erudite scholar.

I respect him more and will not treat him as a decoration like Zhuge Liang.

But... if you get close to Wei Ba, will it cause Zhuge Liang to be suspicious? The days are already sad enough now. Is it appropriate to offend Zhuge Liang again? Zhuge Liang asked Wei Ba to go to Wuling, so he didn't have any kind intentions.

Lai Min thought about it and couldn't make a decision. At this moment, someone came outside to report that Wei Yan, the general of Zhenbei, came to pay New Year's greetings to Lai Gong.

When Lai Min heard this, a flush suddenly appeared on her face. Wei Yan came to greet me? My God, is the sun coming from the west today? Lai Min didn't dare to put on airs. Wei Yan's bad temper is famous, and he is willing to

It is a good thing to come. If he neglects him and makes him angry, it will be a disaster. Laimin dares not neglect and comes out to greet him immediately.

When Wei Yan saw Lai Min, he immediately took a few steps and bowed with a smile on his face: "Happy New Year, is it? I wish you good health, educate all over the world, establish morality and words, and be remembered forever."

Lai Min explained clearly when she heard this: "Wen Chang, is she a lobbyist for her son?"

Wei Yan laughed: "The son is naughty and urgently needs great scholars like Lai Gong. Hahaha... Wei Yan had to come and invite Lai Gong to take action. Lai Gong, I have asked the Prime Minister for instructions, and the Prime Minister also said that those who can take this great responsibility are not

Don’t come to the house. Don’t refuse.” (To be continued.)
