Chapter 1194 Is it fun
Although Dugu Wenxiu was born in poverty, he was well-informed and well-recorded.
Since Ye Manwen has opened his head, he can already guess many things.
When Dugu Bingwen talked about the Empress of the Great Zheng clan, Dugu Wenxiu could immediately deduce many things. In the Great Zheng State, the Dugu family almost monopolized the candidate for the queen for hundreds of years. This shows how powerful the Dugu family is in the Great Zheng State.
Dugu Wenxiu couldn't help but speculate that even the royal family of Dazheng was just the spokespersons promoted by these big families.
When Zheng State was at its most declining, the Dugu family monopolized the power and was rampant in the court. Those who did not follow the law were immediately eliminated. At that time, the Emperor of Zheng State was just a decoration, with civil officials and military generals, and there were more Dugu family, and no one really cared about the emperor's orders.
Later, Zheng State had to perish.
Sometimes, the people cannot see what is behind the change of dynasty.
When Dugu Wenxiu thought of this, a layer of cold sweat had already emerged from her back.
Could the change of dynasties be the trick behind these big families? For example, after the overthrow of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the people thought they would live a good life, but the family behind them was still the same group of people. They just felt that the Great Zhou Dynasty had become corrupt to a certain extent and its rule over the people could not be continued, so they simply changed the emperor and established a new country, so that the people would see hope again.
Then, the Great Zheng State was established, and these people continued to gain unscrupulously. When the people could no longer bear it, they destroyed the Kingdom of Zheng State, and then the Great Sui State appeared. When they thought of this, Dugu Wenxiu felt a chill in his heart. If this was true, then the so-called historical events and the so-called dynasty change were just these people playing a game that would never be bored.
However, the Great Sui Dynasty was obviously an alien.
The Yang family wanted to get rid of this fate from the beginning, so they kept struggling. From Yang Jian's request for help from Wan Xingchen, it can be seen that the Yang family is unwilling to become a puppet. On the surface, it seems that the Yang family was promoted by Tonggu Academy, but who would have thought that there were also shadows of these people in Tonggu Academy?
"You may have never heard of such a name."
Perhaps it is because he is from the Dugu family. Although his blood relationship is already very thin, Dugu Bingwen still showed some affection for Dugu Wenxiu. He smiled and said, "The Heaven Control Society"
He raised his legs and savored the tea: "From a long time ago, our ancestors of the family have already understood how to master the principles of this world. We will never really appear in front of the world, but the world is under our control... Of course, our Dugu family is relatively simple in the control of the sky."
"Do you know why the Dugu family was so domineering when they were in the Great Zheng Kingdom? In fact, it is not because our family's ancestors are superficial, but because they are working hard to expand their strength. Only in this way can they join the Tianguanhui. Without a certain amount of strength, they can't enter this sect at all."
His tone became more and more calmer, obviously very confident: "You are different. When you come in, it does not mean a family, you represent an attitude. When you are willing to do things for the family, we will cheer you up. Aren't you revenge? If you want to be the prime minister and you want to be a famous person in history, it is extremely simple... After getting rid of Fang Jie, the Black Flag Army will inevitably be scattered. I don't believe that the Black Flag Army has no faction, and there are factions and disputes."
"But after all, these people in the Black Flag Army are all local buns."
Dugu Bingwen said: "The generals of the Black Flag Army all rose from a very low position. Most people have no deep background - Jing has no good background. To put it bluntly, they have no vision. After Fang Jie died, we naturally cannot choose someone outside as an emperor. We must choose from the Black Flag Army... At this time, it is a bit late to pick someone up again, and it is also a bit difficult. After all, no matter how powerful the internal struggle of the Black Flag Army is, it is still the same as the other person when dealing with others."
"We plan to choose someone from the Black Flag Army to be the emperor. This person has no knowledge. He will feel fear and obey after seeing the strength of the Tianguanhui."
"certainly……"
Dugu Bingwen pointed at Dugu Wenxiu: "This candidate will not be you."
Ye Manwen smiled and said, "The Black Flag Army looks like an egg without a sewn, but that's just a illusion of Fang Jie. He has always used people outside the power center before the Sui Dynasty, and many people from poor families. He thought this way? Can we be excluded?"
“So naive!”
The man who was called Bai Lao sneered: "Although Fang Jie is smart enough, he has already felt our existence, so he has always used people like you who are from poor families. Even if you have to use people from noble families, you will choose those from declining noble families... He thought this would be possible to defend himself? Haha... As long as we are willing, it is very simple to stuff a few of our own people into the Black Flag Army."
"For example, Liu Enjing."
He said: "It seems that Fang Jie was looking for Liu Enjing by himself? He sent someone to rescue Liu Enjing and Xu Xiaogong and brought them into the Black Flag Army. So there is no place to doubt, and Liu Enjing has not been exposed so far because we didn't let him do anything, and it's enough to concentrate on doing things for Fang Jie."
"Did you choose Liu Enjing?"
Dugu Wenxiu asked.
"No, no, no"
Dugu Bingwen smiled and said, "Liu Enjing is too old and can't get on the table. Moreover, Liu Enjing's position in the Black Flag Army is too low, not Fang Jie's direct line. You people who follow Fang Jie to conquer the world from the beginning are the choices. Only by choosing one from you Fang Jie's direct line will you not be rejected. If you choose Liu Enjing, even if Fang Jie dies, the rest of the Black Flag Army will not be convinced."
"Who is that?"
Dugu Wenxiu asked.
"Cui Zhongzhen"
Ye Manwen gave the answer: "This is why, we accept you."
Dugu Wenxiu's heart was shocked to an extreme level, and she never thought that Cui Zhongzhen would be involved!
“Surprised?”
Dugu Bingwen laughed: "I like to see you surprised. Only in this way can you believe how powerful our power is. Only in this way can you understand that Fang Jie can't break free from his own destiny."
...
...
Dugu Bingwen clapped his hands, and then a servant opened a small door.
Then Dugu Wenxiu saw Cui Zhongzhen.
He never thought he would meet this person in such a place.
"Hello, Lord Dugu."
Cui Zhongzhen greeted him politely, and then stood beside an old man who had never spoken before. Looking at his expression, he had a very real fear of the old man. Dugu Wenxiu had never seen this old man, but he still felt familiar.
"You just found out..."
Ye Manwen said: "The puppet family trained by your Dugu family is the Pei family, the puppets trained by the old Bai family are the Liu family, and my Ye family is the Yu family..."
He looked at the old man and was also a little awe: "He is different. Uncle Cui did not control other families, nor did he cultivate puppets. Because their Cui family has always been very low-key and has always been in everyone's sight. The Cui family is just a second-rate family. Many people in the Cui family in Longyou, who want to break the head, can only think that the Cui family has a concubine in the palace, and they are not favored... Even Fang Jie would not have imagined that the person he had met in Longyou would have such a mysterious identity."
Cui You
Choi Zhongzhen's father
The little man who had no real power in the local area and had only carried a county marquis on his back.
"We didn't believe it at the beginning, and Fang Xie would have achieved such a success."
Ye Manwen smiled and said, "But Uncle Cui thinks that Fang Jie would be a change. Although Fang Jie was just a small person like an ant at that time, Uncle Cui still put a person next to him... that is, Cui Zhongzhen."
Cui You said coldly: "That's because he is a waste, so he can only be sent to the little people at that time. My original intention was to let him come to Chang'an to experience it. After all, sooner or later, the Cui family's industry will be handed over to him. He is cowardly and cannot become a talent without experience. Fortunately, he did not disappoint me."
Cui Zhongzhen quickly lowered his head: "It's his father who taught me well."
"Don't say insincere words."
Cui You's face was calm from beginning to end, and even a little cold: "You have hated me since you were young, but now you are mature and you know how ridiculous and naive that hatred is. As for teaching, I haven't taught you anything. Over the years, you have learned a lot from Fang Jie."
Choi Zhongzhen smiled awkwardly and said nothing.
Dugu Bingwen seemed to have no interest in paying attention to the matter between the father and son, but after all, the Cui family was the most suitable candidate this time, so he was much more polite to Cui You than before. Although the Cui family did not control any puppets, it secretly controlled many industries because of the wealth accumulated hundreds of years ago. If the most powerful business on the surface is naturally the world of money, then in fact, many people who do business with the world of money are from the Cui family.
The Cui family took a different path from other families. The other families chose to control a family to enter the court and become the center of power. The Cui family chose to control the bottom class, and they intervened in all walks of life.
"It's a coincidence."
Dugu Bingwen said: "We could not have allowed people in the meeting to come forward, but now Cui Zhongzhen is the most suitable candidate, so the rules have to be broken. Cui Zhongzhen led the army alone and guarded Chang'an, and Fang Jie trusted him without doubt. This is perfect. You also know that Fang Jie even doubted you..."
He pointed to Dugu Wenxiu and said, "That's why he will keep you away from military power, and let Cui Zhongzhen lead the troops. His original intention is to let Cui Zhongzhen monitor you. Once you show any signs, Cui Zhongzhen will lead the troops to wipe out... I have to say that Fang Jie is a cautious person, but he is still too young."
Dugu Wenxiu's heart was beating wildly, almost jumping out of her throat.
"I see."
Dugu Wenxiu finally understood everything.
"You chose me because the people in Chang'an City now, including those inside the Black Flag Army, all know that Cui Zhongzhen and I are not on the same road, and they all know that there is a deep conflict between me and him. So I am very suitable. The enemy on the surface is actually my own people, which will be of great help to Cui Zhongzhen ascend the throne in the future, right?"
Dugu Wenxiu said: "Everyone within the Black Flag Army knows that there is a gap between Cui Zhongzhen and me. They will never think that I will help Cui Zhongzhen ascend the throne."
"That's right!"
Ye Manwen snapped his fingers and admired Dugu Wenxiu's cleverness: "It seems that choosing you is right. All you have to do is to become Cui Zhongzhen's helper. In this way, no matter how Fang Jie arranges it, we can actually see it clearly. After Fang Jie dies, someone will oppose Cui Zhongzhen's ascendance to the throne, and you and Cui Zhongzhen are rivals. These people will surround you, with you as the leader. But you...hahahahaha."
Ye Manwen smiled so hard that she was angry: "It's our people, is it fun?"
