799 One Pit After Another Pit
"I will never die..." Chi Rui looked at Mr. Chi, "It's easy to say, but it's even more difficult to do. We have a blood ties with our father, let alone our elders. If we really don't die, and come with him, what will those outside think of us in the future? And his students are all well-known now, and we may not be able to bear their criticism."
"What's the matter? Just killing your relatives for justice." Mr. Chi waved his hand, "Brother, you really think too much."
"They don't say we are destroying relatives for justice. They just say we are taking advantage of the situation and saying we are unfilial sons. The scholar's mouth and scholar's pen are so cruel. You know very well without me. Not to mention anything else, just those people in the Censorate, how many of them are their father's students. Although they may have different opinions in their daily lives, if something happens to their teachers, they will stand together due to their teachers. If they are impeached every day and are pointed at the nose every day, do you think you have suffered?"
"There's nothing to bear." Seeing the sneer on Chi Rui's face, Mr. Chi asked curiously, "What did the elder brother think of?"
"It's nothing, I just think my father is very powerful." Chi Rui sighed quietly, "He has a good layout, and there are many students all over the world. No matter what, someone will talk to him."
"Other things may be possible, right now..." Mr. Chi shook his head in disagreement, "It may not be as pessimistic as you think."
"Oh? What did you say?"
"Did you notice it? Since our family was confiscated, his students and old friends have been hiding far away? If it were ordinary things, why had people already been in love? There must be many people who came to visit their father. Look at it now? I haven't even seen a personal figure."
"It's not that no one has pleaded with each other, there is, but..." Chi Rui shook his head slightly, "It seems that they have been suppressed."
"How did you know?"
"If I don't hang out with you, I'll have one or two friends to come and see you."
"Do you know that Your Majesty was furious in the court and scolded all the uncles who had sex with our family?"
"Where did you hear about this?"
"Your Majesty's younger brother, Prince Li, said that he wants to tell us not to expect others to come and save himself." Mr. Chi sighed, "The current situation is actually very unfavorable to his father. Chi Hong. He gets close to them on weekdays, and everyone who plays well is in danger. What I am afraid of now is not that they are clearing their relationship, but that they step on the back. So, at this time, if our brothers destroy their relatives for the sake of justice, they will definitely be praised by them and blown away the sky."
"Your description is really... very appropriate, but once my father is fine, they will bite us to death like a mad dog."
"How could it be fine? What he has done over the years? He knew in his heart that just leaking the news about Prince Ning's Mansion would make him unable to bear it. This is the late emperor and the current reverse scale."
Chi Rui lowered his head and thought for a while, thinking that Mr. Chi's words were very reasonable, and nodded slightly, "That's right, plus his business of salt and iron is exposed, this is about to break out, and it's going to be a big deal in the court."
"I don't know what kind of poison Chi Hong has put on his father, but he even dares to get involved in such a head-losing business. They didn't come forward, but they wanted to push me up."
"You haven't refused?"
"Brother, no matter how filial I am, I know how powerful I am, so I naturally refuse it, and more than once." Mr. Chi Er sighed, "After returning from the Jin Kingdom with the eldest son of the Qing family, I think that going shopping is really what I want to do most in my life. Since there is this convenience, I will do it well. So, I carefully summarized the experience in this industry, and summarized that in addition to liking the silk and porcelain of Daxia, the Jin people were also interested in what Daxia things were. They made a plan very seriously and went to various places to buy them in person." He looked at Chi Rui, "Brother should remember that I took a long vacation for a year and spent half a year outside, right?"
"Yes, I remember."
"I spent half a year searching outside and bought some items that I thought were unique, which meant that Daxia came back. Because I was not sure if it would be liked by the Jin people, I didn't buy a lot of them, so I just thought it was a way to throw a stone to ask for directions. After preparing these things, I also made an appointment with the eldest son of the Qing family to set off for the next departure. When we were about to show our skills, the change came. Just over half a month before we set off, one day my father said to introduce two veterans in business to me. I was not suspicious and went with him. The person I met was indeed a businessman, and he was not short of a short time and a big background."
"Come?" Chi Rui frowned slightly, "Who is the origin?"
"It's a businessman who can sell salt and iron licensed by the government." Mr. Chi raised his eyebrows at his elder brother, "Didn't expect it?"
"They... are so big, what do they do with their father? Their business should make them profitable, right?"
"Businessmen are all greedy. The more money they make, the less they feel. The price of salt and iron given by the government has been around for decades, but the price of private salt and private iron is different every day. Especially when selling salt and iron to neighboring countries, it is even more profitable. It is absolutely impossible to say that they are not moved at all, but they are suffering from no one to set up a way."
"Although it is huge profits, the risk is too great, and it may be a catastrophe at any time."
"What they pursue is this kind of excitement, of course they won't mind this." Mr. Chi sighed, "But I mind, so when they asked to take my convoy to Yiqing Mansion, I refused the meal... and the meal... ended in a bad mood. After returning home, I had a big fight with my father. I was so angry that I didn't go home for several days, but lived in a shop that had not opened. Later, Chi Hong came to the shop several times and was a lobbyist for his father, hoping that I could agree to my father's request, but I didn't let it go until..."
"Father is sick." Chi Rui nodded, "I remembered that at that time, I also blamed you and Chi Hong for having something that cannot be solved well and insisted on getting sick from my father."
"Yes, I was still scolding you for standing and talking without a pain in your back. If it were you, you would have made the same choice as me."
"That's right." Chi Rui nodded, "Because your father is sick, you are soft-hearted and decided to help them this time?"
