————The following text————

"This is impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

Looking at Zhao Hongrun, his second uncle Zhao Yuanyan, who was sitting opposite him, was filled with surprise.

You must know that the purpose of the four of them, namely Chengling King Zhao Wenshen, Jiyang King Zhao Wenzhuo, Zhongyang King Zhao Wenxuan, and Yuanyang King Zhao Wenkai, is to force Zhao Hongrun to open Sanchuan to them.

As for the reason why Zhao Hongrun refused to open Sanchuan to the aristocratic forces, people in both the government and the public have already guessed: to beat the aristocratic merchants and support the civilian merchants!

No, some wise nobles immediately asked to see Emperor Wei, contributed some of the mineral veins in their hands, and promised to immediately hand over the past reminders owed to the court and give them an additional three points of interest.

Under this situation, Zhao Hongrun still refused to contact the domestic nobles such as King Chengling in an attempt to delay time. Therefore, the latter thought of the Zongfu, hoping to get the Zongfu involved in the matter and force Zhao Hongrun to surrender.

Unexpectedly, instead of making Zhao Hongrun surrender, the Zongfu intensified the conflict, making the biggest conflict between the three currently no longer between Zhao Hongrun and the domestic nobles represented by King Chengling and others, but between Zhao Hongrun and Zong.

Government conflict.

The reason why the matter evolved to this point was none other than King Chengling and others.

Under such circumstances, how could Prince Chengling turn to Zhao Hongrun, his original political enemy? If they dared to do so, the clan government involved in this matter would never let them off lightly.

You must know that the most important reason why the Zongfu has nothing to do with Zhao Hongrun is because Emperor Wei is his father. It is impossible for the Zongfu to really lock up Zhao Hongrun for ten or twenty years, and Emperor Wei can never sit back and watch as he is now the most important person.

My son spent twenty years in confinement.

In other words, if the clan really dares to have its own way, it means breaking up with the imperial power.

However, what support do domestic nobles like King Chengling have to dare to offend the clan?

You must know that only the Zongfu and the aristocratic forces in Wei can unite, can they have the power to restrict the imperial power. If there is an internal conflict between the two, the power of the Emperor of Wei will not be afraid of either of them.

Unity will benefit both parties, and division will cause two harms. Zhao Yuanyan did not believe that Prince Chengling and others did not even understand this point, and was turned against him by Zhao Hongrun's few words.

"Unless...unless this kid is still holding on to something..."

Zhao Yuanyan took a deep look at Zhao Hongrun and felt sincerely that this nephew had really grown up and had the ability to intervene in the power game between adults.

But having said that, compared with this matter, Zhao Yuanyan was more troubled by the problems Zhao Hongrun had given him.

I saw him turning his face sideways, looking at the cooking pot with boiling water, and then looking at the rice bag mixed with new rice and rotten rice in his hand. He was speechless for a moment.

A normal person would never cook new rice and rotten rice together, but if he singled out the latter, he would have fallen into Zhao Hongrun's trap.

Of course, in fact, Zhao Yuanyan could deliberately act angry and walk away.

But the problem is that this kind of cheating method cannot solve the problem.

Because Zhao Yuanyan is a very upright and old-fashioned person, and this is what Zhao Hongrun respects about him.

And if Zhao Yuanyan escapes the "inquiry" from the juniors by cheating, then there is no doubt that he will lose Zhao Hongrun's respect for him, and Zhao Yuanyan himself may not have the confidence to continue to reprimand the juniors as seriously as before in the future.

The most important point is that Zhao Yuanyan's character determines that he will not choose the heretical and opportunistic method.

No, after hesitating for a long time, Zhao Yuanyan sighed softly, put the rice bag back on the stone table, then looked up at Zhao Hongrun and asked: "You...really convinced King Chengling and others?"

"How dare my nephew deceive his second uncle? This is absolutely true." Zhao Hongrun said swornly.

Zhao Yuanyan was surprised and doubtful when he heard this, frowned and said: "I want to know the details."

"Specifically..." Zhao Hongrun took out a piece of paper from his arms and handed it to Zhao Yuanyan.

"..." Zhao Yuanyan glanced at Zhao Hongrun in confusion, then took the paper and looked at it for a few times, then murmured in his mouth: "The grace order...is this?"

After saying that, he seemed to have seen something horrifying, and his expression suddenly changed. He stared at Zhao Hongrun with disbelief for a moment, then lowered his head again, frowning and scanning every word on the paper carefully.

After several glasses of wine, Zhao Yuanyan took a long breath and looked at Zhao Hongrun as if he were meeting him for the first time. Then he said in a deep voice: "This is a strategy to disrupt the country. Even your father will not agree to it."

of!"

Zhao Hongrun smiled slightly and said: "But this does not prevent my nephew from using it to scare some people."

Zhao Yuanyan was silent for a moment, and then said: "Prince Chengling and the others are not willing to compromise with just a few threats...what else?"

"And..." Zhao Hongrun smacked his lips and said with some helplessness: "I promised them that I will take them to play together in the future."

Zhao Yuanyan thought for a while and then realized that what Zhao Hongrun said by "playing together" probably meant "making profits together".

Just like the current Ministry of Household Affairs.

If we want to say which party gained the most from Zhao Hongrun's pacification of Sanchuan this time, there is no doubt that it was the Ministry of Household Affairs of the Imperial Court.

However, this sentence surprised Zhao Yuanyan, even more surprised than when he saw the "Tweening Order", because in his impression, Zhao Hongrun was very opposed to distributing profits to the nobles.

"This is really unexpected..." Looking at Zhao Hongrun, Zhao Yuanyan mocked lightly: "I didn't expect you to make such a sacrifice this time in order to deal with the Zongfu... It seems that you are determined to bring the Zongfu to its knees.

Already."

"That's what the second uncle said." Zhao Hongrun raised his hand and scratched his face, and said with some embarrassment: "Hongrun, I am also a descendant of Ji Zhao, how can I really reject the clan members? It's just that I hate people in my bowl.

Fighting for food, moreover, some guys eat

The appearance is also very ugly... In fact, I don't mind dividing a few pieces of meat from the bowl to the tribesmen, but the biggest piece must belong to me, Da Wei. Whoever dares to touch this piece will be chopped into pieces by my nephew.

My second uncle can understand this, right?"

"..." Prince Yan took a deep look at Zhao Hongrun and said nothing. It seemed that he accepted Zhao Hongrun's words.

He calmly balled up the paper in his hand, threw it into the charcoal fire under the cauldron, and burned it.

Seeing this, Zhao Hongrun said with a distressed look on his face: "Second uncle, what are you doing? This piece of paper is still useful."

Prince Yan ignored Zhao Hongrun's complaints and asked seriously: "What do you want?"

Hearing this, Zhao Hongrun's expression of complaint on his face suddenly subsided, and he lowered his voice and said: "My nephew feels that since the great uncle, third uncle and other clan elders have resigned, they should no longer live in the clan... I, the Great Wei,

There are many picturesque mountains and rivers.”

"..." Zhao Yuanyan glanced at Zhao Hongrun, without any surprise on his face.

Obviously, he had already guessed this.

And what he really wanted to ask was not this.

"What will happen to the Zongfu?" Prince Yan asked.

Zhao Hongrun was stunned for a moment, and after thinking for a moment, he said in a deep voice: "Hundreds of years ago, our ancestors established the Zongfu to manage the Ji Zhao clan and to reward and punish our Ji Zhao clan. But now, the Zongfu

Relying on the support of countless nobles in the country, he actually interfered in state affairs... This kind of precedent cannot be set."

Although Zhao Hongrun did not explicitly state how he wanted to punish the clan, Zhao Yuanyan understood the general idea, which was to severely cut off the clan's rights as a warning.

Seeing this, Zhao Yuanyan frowned and said, "If the clan's face is greatly damaged like this, how can it still have the prestige to restrain the clan members?"

At this moment, Zhao Hongrun saw a slight smile on his lips and said in a lowered voice: "So, the clan's face will be greatly damaged and its majesty will be ruined. Someone must take responsibility!"

"..."

Zhao Yuanyan stared at Zhao Hongrun as if in disbelief.

Who will take responsibility?

There is no need to ask this kind of question. Who in the clan has the highest prestige and qualifications at the moment?

"This kid actually..."

Zhao Yuanyan looked at Zhao Hongrun, shocked and speechless.

At this time, Zhao Hongrun lowered his voice and said: "My nephew does not ask the second uncle for help. The second uncle just needs to... keep silent."

"..." Zhao Yuanyan opened his mouth, but in the end he said nothing more.

That night, when Zhao Yuanyan returned to the clan mansion, he was called over by Zhao Hongrun's great-uncle Zhao Tairu.

"Yuan Yan, I heard someone said that you went to that hateful boy's house?"

"Yes." Looking at Zhao Tairu who was sitting on the main seat, Zhao Yuanyan lowered his head and said respectfully: "He ordered people to tie up the dog Hongmin and threatened me to go to the house. He said that if I didn't go, Hongmin would be thrown into the fireworks.

Go to bed with those women in Liuxiang..."

"Hmph!" Zhao Tairu paused his walking stick after hearing this, and said coldly: "How dare you be so presumptuous?"

In the next chapter, the third uncle agreed and said: "This son is arrogant and conceited and does things regardless of the consequences. If he is allowed to continue to do what he does, it will not be a blessing to our great Wei Dynasty."

A strange look flashed in the eyes of the great-uncle Zhao Tairu, and he immediately asked Zhao Yuanyan: "Yuanyan, what did that hateful boy say to you?"

Zhao Yuanyan lowered his eyelids and said in a deep voice: "Hong Run said that the Zongfu is the house in charge of the rewards and punishments of the Ji Zhao clan, and should not interfere in the affairs of the country. If the Zongfu insists on going his own way again, he... will not be polite anymore.

.”

"Does he think that just because he is in the clan mansion today, he can be called polite?" The great-uncle paused his cane fiercely, and then sneered: "I have never seen such an arrogant boy in my long life! That's fine, that's all.

Let me see how rude his so-called 'you're welcome' really is!"

"..."

Looking up at the angry great-uncle, Zhao Yuanyan sighed silently in his heart.

In the end, he did not disclose the details of his detailed discussion with Zhao Hongrun.
