"Princes and nobles really know how to enjoy it!" Chen Ke looked around at the beautiful scenery and couldn't help but sigh: "No wonder people say that when poor people talk about being rich, they must wear gold and silver, but the rich people say, 'The chrysanthemums are yellow and the leaves are red on the Double Ninth Festival in September.
Autumn colors are better than spring scenery'!"
"When you become a high official in the future, you will naturally have a house like this. """ Zhao Zongji said with a strange expression: "I heard that Zhao Zonghui invited you to be a guest at Boyixuan?"
"I was just about to tell you about this." Chen Ke took out the invitation book from his arms, threw it in front of Zhao Zongji and said, "I didn't expect you to know about it first."
"In Bianjing City, it's even harder to hide something."
"I have a deep understanding." Chen Ke nodded his head and said, "There are too many gods here, and their magic power is boundless."
"You are the one who invited me, not me." Zhao Zongji threw the invitation back to him and said, "Put it away. At this time, an invitation from Boyixuan is hard to come by."
"But I regard it as dirt." Chen Ke waved his hand and threw the invitation far into the lake.
"Don't..." Zhao Zongji stood up and wanted to stop him, but it was already too late. He couldn't help but smile bitterly and said: "Are you specifically showing your feelings to me?"
"You can't say that," Chen Ke said in a deep voice, "But I do want to tell you that even if Zhao Zongshi invites you personally, I won't go back because you are my brother and he is not!"
"Zhong Fang." Zhao Zongji felt a warm current rising from the bottom of his heart. He punched Chen Ke twice and said, "You will be my good brother in this life!"
"So energetic..." Chen Ke rubbed his shoulders and said with a smile: "Stop being sensational, let's work together to see how we can break the game in front of us."
"It's too late, the overall situation has been decided." Zhao Zongji picked up a large yellow-orange orange, twisted the top with a knife, and carefully peeled it open and said: "A few days ago, I had a deep conversation with my father, and he told me that my
My uncle, Zhao Yunrang, the king of Runan County, had been a prince for a period of time back then. Later, when he was born into the current official family, he was sent back when he was one year old."
"I've heard of this." Chen Ke took the orange handed over by Zhao Zongji, stuffed half of it into his mouth, and wrinkled his face with soreness and said: "Father and son have two generations of spare tires, but they are also weird." He said with a smile: "
Of course he is better than you, you are the spare tire of the spare tire."
After hanging out with Chen Ke for a long time, he naturally knows what a "spare tire" means. Although Zhao Zongji never understands how the wheels can be inflated, isn't he afraid of them exploding?
"My father told me this not to laugh at him." Ignoring Chen Ke's teasing, he whispered: "But to tell me that my uncle Wang has unimaginable intentions for the throne. So from the first of the two of us
From the moment he was first admitted to the palace, he began to plot secretly, not only cultivating his own power, but also deliberately making friends with a group of young talents."
"Who is there?"
"At that time, we were catching up with the era of great talents in the Song Dynasty. Not to mention, Wen Xianggong, Fu Xianggong, Han Xianggong, Ouyang Teacher, Tang Jie, Bao Zheng... these big shots who are now stomping their feet will make the ground shake.
We all have a close friendship with him." Zhao Zongji sighed and said, "My uncle Wang has been very ill in the past few years. He has lost his shape and spirit. But back then, he was a talented man, elegant and handsome, and he was also good at treating people.
It's like taking a breath of spring breeze, and everyone is willing to associate with him."
"It's really far-sighted." Chen Ke couldn't help but be convinced: "I finally understand why Teacher was so opposed to my association with you."
"Yes, now that it's the harvest season, all the big shots in the dynasty have maintained friendship with him for many years." Zhao Zongji said: "What's more, my brother Wang is gentle, courteous and thrifty, and has great respect for ministers. He is just like the ancient sages.
In the minds of the ministers, he is the best choice for the future prince."
"..." Chen Ke stopped talking.
"My father told me this." Zhao Zongji sighed and said, "It just told me to give up that idea and try my best to make peace with Zhao Zongshi."
"Are you going to make peace with him?" Chen Ke frowned and said, "Is this possible?"
"It's impossible, I know Zhao Zongshi too well. ("")" Zhao Zongji said coldly: "If I go and beg him, he might be able to pretend to be reconciled with me. But when he really becomes the emperor,
I promise to settle accounts with my future wife."
"What's more, a man is born to stand upright, and I don't want to live like a dog!" Zhao Zongji said with a perseverance that had never appeared before on his face: "Even if we are bound to lose, I will die with him!"
"What do you want to do?" Chen Ke asked horrified.
"I am going to present all the five hundred thousand guan you gave me to the officials. I also have some evidence in my hand that Zhao Zongchu, Zhao Zonghan and the Beggar Gang colluded, so I will submit them together." Zhao Zongji said coldly: "Let the officials see it.
Look, a two-generation wise prince actually colluded with gangsters, killed people, and secretly saved such a huge sum of money, but he didn’t know what to use it for! Can the throne of the Song Dynasty be passed on to such a person with evil intentions? Let the officials themselves
Go ahead and judge!”
"It's unrealistic." Chen Ke shook his head decisively and said, "How do you prove the relationship between this huge sum of money and the Runan County Prince's Palace, and how do you prove its relationship with Zhao Zongshi?"
"Some things don't require evidence." Zhao Zongji said unmoved: "The officials will judge for themselves." He felt that he should not speak to Chen Ke like this, so he softened his tone and explained: "I have been with the officials since I was a child.
Everyone around me knows his character fairly well. He is a benevolent gentleman who is rare to see through the ages, but he also has three weaknesses. One is that sometimes, he is easily influenced by others. At best, this is called being unfaithful.
The advice is flowing, but to say the worst, I just have no independent opinion. As long as I speak appropriately, it will always be effective."
Why didn't Chen Ke know the emperor's weakness? During Di Qing's defense battle, he was able to turn the impossible into possible by relying on the doubtful point of the Hetu to muddy the water... No one knows whether there is a Hetu, but Wen Yanbo is
As a result, he lost the trust of officials.
Now Zhao Zongji wants to follow the example of the gourd, but Chen Ke is not very optimistic and says: "If you try harder, the officials will be doubtful at best."
"It's enough to be dubious." He sighed softly and said: "This is choosing the future leader of the Song Dynasty, and there is no father-son relationship with the official family. The official family will definitely be extra cautious and will not tolerate anything inappropriate.
."
"But how will you deal with it?" Chen Ke asked.
"Didn't I say that we will die together," Zhao Zongji said with a sad smile: "In front of the officials, we have always acted like brothers. Now I suddenly become an informer, and the one I am accusing is my brother. You
What do the officials think? I'm afraid they will be even more disappointed in me..."
"It's better for me to expose him." Chen Ke said, with a self-deprecating smile: "But our relationship is too close, I'm afraid we are all the same in the eyes of the officials."
"No one can do it," Zhao Zongji shook his head and said in a lower voice: "The second weakness of the official family is that they value feelings. As long as there is someone who is kind to him or has been his master, the official family will always
Cover up in every possible way. Not to mention hypocrisy like ours. He won’t believe what others say. Only I can offset the official’s feelings for Zhao Zongshi.”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
After Zhao Zongji finished speaking, he looked at Chen Ke expectantly, hoping that he would praise him.
But Chen Ke said mercilessly: "It's not me who is attacking you, but your plan has a fatal flaw."
"What flaw?"
"You have no evidence that Zhao Zongshi was directly involved." Chen Ke said solemnly: "You can certainly make the officials suspicious of him if you make a desperate move, but if Zhao Zongchu and Zhao Zonghan take the initiative to take the responsibility on themselves, saying that they are greedy for enjoyment and were temporarily confused.
, he did all kinds of wrong things without telling his family, so the official’s suspicion of Zhao Zongshi will be greatly reduced. In addition, with a few capable ministers speaking for him, it will be difficult to hurt his bones. "
"..." Zhao Zongji thought about it carefully and started to sweat. It seems that compared with Chen Ke, he is really not a schemer.
"Besides, the matter has not come to a point where you have to live and die." Chen Ke said lightly: "I heard that last month, ten beauties entered the official harem at once."
"Yes." Zhao Zongji nodded and said, "The officials have already dealt with this matter in a low-key manner, but the censor still found out about it and wrote a letter scolding him for being lecherous."
"Are the officials really just for pleasure?"
"Of course not, it's to have a son."
"Right," Chen Ke clenched his fist and said, "This shows that, at least from an official perspective, he still wants to give birth to his own child."
"That's natural, but now that the general trend is the general trend, the officials have nothing to do." Zhao Zongji shook his head and said: "In the Song Dynasty, the officials sometimes couldn't make the decision."
"But in the final analysis, it is the officials who make the decision!" Chen Ke said on the contrary: "I don't believe it. If the officials don't nod, who can establish a prince for him?"
"Of course it won't work. But the third weakness of the official family is that he always wants to maintain a harmonious situation. He will not let the ministers antagonize, nor will he antagonize the ministers." After a pause, he said: "Besides, the ministers also made it clear.
, it is not to establish a prince, but to adopt an eldest son as a prince. If a dragon son is born in the future, he will be sent back. I think this is not unacceptable to the officials. In the end, eighty percent will compromise with the ministers. "
"The progress is rapid. It won't be long before you can become an apprentice!" Chen Ke said with a thumbs up.
"Fuck you," Zhao Zongji laughed and scolded, "Let's get down to business!"
"The business is that the official is very reluctant now. As long as you give him an excuse, you can definitely mess up the matter!" Chen Ke said confidently.
"Here we go again," Zhao Zongji said helplessly: "Where can I make excuses for him?"
"Did you know..." Chen Ke said quietly, "Someone is investigating the Runan Palace?"
"Who?" Zhao Zongji opened his eyes wide and asked.
"Old Bao." Chen Ke said without hesitation: "How do you think the incarnation of justice is more important than you?"
