Gui Hai Yi Dao frantically searched for Guo Zhu, who was very happy at this time.
There is a message from the system that has not had any messages for a long time.
Ding! Kill the tyrant! Successfully changed the fate of Ba Dao. Luck points +10.
Ding! Successfully changed the fate of Gui Hai Yida. Luck points +20.
Guo Zhu smiled so hard that his lips reached to his ears.
Why? That’s not right! I just told a story, Gui Hai Yida's fate was changed.
Then why has Shangguan Haitang's fate not changed yet?
And where is the luck point for killing Mr. Wuhen?
System, please explain.
[Shangguan Haitang's fate was originally to die. The host must ensure that she will not die before she can change her fate. 】
[Master Wuhen did not appear in the original plot, so there is no luck in killing him. 】
System, you are being unreasonable! Why? You spoke and answered my questions.
Why didn't you speak before?
[The host system’s luck points exceeded the 100-point threshold before the system successfully recovered. After recovery, the host did not ask the system]
So what is your origin? Why choose me?
[The host has insufficient permissions and is temporarily unable to answer. 】
How to increase permissions?
[The host can spend 100 luck points to upgrade the system and increase permissions]
Okay, Guo Zhu looked at the balance of luck points: 50
He closed his mouth silently, and then decided to continue earning luck points.
…
night.
East Factory.
Cao Zhengchun was so happy that he hummed a tune while walking after get off work. Today, he overpowered Zhu Wuyi again. He calmly gave Iron Claw Flying Eagle a false information and killed many people in Hulong Villa.
"Hey, Eunuch Cao, you are very happy today."
Cao Zhengchun recognized who the owner of the voice was, and his good mood suddenly disappeared.
I saw that man sitting in his seat in a grand manner, even wearing night clothes and covering his face.
Although his good mood was ruined, Cao Zhengchun smiled at Guo Zhu and said, "You are here. I have heard everything. Dongchang needs talents like you."
Cao Zhengchun covered his mouth and smiled.
Guo Zhuhao refused without hesitation: "No, we are not interested in joining Dongchang."
"Young man, you killed Mr. Wuhen and Ba Dao. Zhu Mingli will not let you go. Only by joining Dongchang can you be saved." Cao Zhengchun advised, "There is nothing wrong with joining our Dongchang. If you have money, Quan, many people from all walks of life have joined our Dongchang."
"Hahaha." Guo Zhu laughed and said, "Eunuch Cao, do you think I am short of money?" He took out a stack of banknotes from his arms and waved them in front of Cao Zhengchun.
"This..." Cao Zhengchun was stunned. Everyone in the world was short of money, but Guo Zhu was not short of money. He would never have thought that Guo Zhu had thirteen thousand to support him.
"As for rights?" Guo Zhu glanced at Cao Zhengchun and said: "Your rights all come from the little emperor. That day the little emperor didn't trust you and no longer used you, so you have no rights, right?"
"So what if you become nine thousand years old? With the little emperor's order, all your rights and money will disappear. No one will help you then."
Cao Zhengchun was silent. He knew that what the other party said was true. He was just a eunuch, and his rights came from the emperor. With the emperor's order, the so-called nine thousand years was just a bubble that could burst with a single poke.
"Eunuch Cao, do you still want to recruit me now? With money and power?" Guo Zhu asked, looking at the silent Cao Zhengchun.
Cao Zhengchun shook his head and said: "The temple in Dongchang is too small to accommodate your giant Buddha."
Then he continued: "I can recommend you to the emperor. How about we help each other in the court from now on?"
"Alas." Guo Zhu sighed and said, "In the old days, the king Xietang Qianyan flew into the homes of ordinary people."
Guo Zhu did not intend to agree to Cao Zhengchun. Cao Zhengchun was limited by the times and his structure was still small.
"Eunuch Cao, don't you understand? You think you gain power through the imperial power, but in the eyes of the imperial power, no matter how high your martial arts skills are, you are still not enough to be a noble in the eyes of the emperor."
"Have you ever thought about why you have been able to compete with Zhu Wuli in front of him all these years?"
Guo Zhu felt that Cao Zhengchun was too miserable. In his entire life, he was just a tool used by the emperor to check and balance Zhu Wuwu. The tool also dreamed of this nine-thousand-year-old dream all day long.
When Cao Zhengchun heard Guo Zhu's series of words, he felt something was wrong, but he couldn't tell what was wrong. He wondered: "Isn't it because of my loyalty and my ability to control Dongchang?"
Guo Zhu said: "Do you think you are loyal? Nine thousand years old?"
"Forget it, let's not talk about it anymore. Master Wuhen and Ba Dao are both dead. The things I agreed on before will be handed over to me." Guo Zhuchong stretched out his hand to Cao Zhengchun and asked for the Tianxiang cardamom.
"good."
Cao Zhengchun smiled and walked to the room inside, twisting the switch of the candlestick in the room.
Click... click.
The bookshelf in the room slowly unfolded, revealing a secret door.
Guo Zhu looked speechless, how much do you like to set up traps in your room? When asked if it was unusual for a martial arts drama to not have such a secret door, Guo Zhu suppressed the thought of complaining and did not say it.
Cao Zhengchun saw something was wrong with Guo Zhu's expression and explained: "The Tianxiang Cardamom is a treasure left by the late emperor. Of course I have to be careful."
"It's understandable," Guo Zhu said.
"Together?" Cao Zhengchun invited Guo Zhu into the secret room.
"No, I don't really like unventilated places. I'll just wait for you here." Guo Zhu politely refused. Who knows if there will be all kinds of powerful mechanisms inside, and there may be poisonous smoke and so on.
After a while, Cao Zhengchun came out with a rectangular wooden box engraved with patterns.
Guo Zhu stared at the wooden box in Cao Zhengchun's hand with burning eyes.
Cao Zhengchun handed over the wooden box. Just as Guo Zhu was about to reach out to take it, Cao Zhengchun retracted his hand.
"Eunuch Cao, what do you mean?" Guo Zhu asked, "Did you regret it?"
Cao Zhengchun smiled kindly and said: "Cao, it's not that I regretted it. I just have a question to ask you."
"As long as you are willing to answer my questions, I will give you the heavenly fragrant cardamom with both hands."
"What's the problem?" Guo Zhu asked.
"That's what I just said, why have I been able to compete with Zhu Wuli all these years?"
"Okay, you can give me the Tianxiang cardamom first, and I will definitely answer your questions." Guo Zhu promised, patting his chest.
"I believe you."
Cao Zhengchun handed over the wooden box again, this time without holding back.
Guo Zhu took the wooden box and opened it, revealing a cardamom the size of an egg.
System: Is this really natural cardamom?
【yes】
Guo Zhu received a systematic answer, showed a satisfied smile, and then raised his hands to Cao Zhengchun and said: "Eunuch Cao is indeed trustworthy, which is admirable!"
"Let me give you my opinion on the question just now and give it as a reference for Eunuch Cao."
Cao Zhengchun did not deceive Guo Zhu with fake things. Guo Zhu was very happy and decided to answer Cao Zhengchun's question.
Guo Zhu pondered for a while and then said: "Eunuch Cao, although you have been in the court for many years, you have not participated in many political affairs. Instead, you have served the emperor and the queen mother more, right?"
"That's right. I rarely participate in political affairs. I only take charge of the East Factory and serve the emperor." Cao Zhengchun nodded.
"You don't understand politics, nor do you understand the emperor's mind."
"You are the tool left by the old emperor to the young emperor to check and balance Zhu Wuwu, and at the same time, Zhu Wuwu is also checking and balancing you. The two of you fight each other, and the fiercer the fight, the harder the fight, so that the little emperor's throne can be stable."
Guo Zhu expressed his inner thoughts.
"This..." Cao Zhengchun was speechless, stretched out his orchid finger and was stunned.
His heart told him that this might be the truth.
Guo Zhu saw Cao Zhengchun's appearance and continued: "You can fight on par with Zhu Wuwu, except for your martial arts and Dongchang's power, all because of the little emperor's deflection."
"Eunuch Cao, you just want to be nine thousand years old, but Zhu Wuwu doesn't want to be nine thousand years old. He wants to sit on the position of the nine-thousand-year-old."
"You can't rebel. Even if you rebel, no one will follow you. But if Zhu ignores the rebellion, do you think anyone will follow him and win the merit of following the dragon?"
"I tell you, it will! It will definitely happen! His surname is Zhu, and he is the emperor's uncle."
"In the Ming Dynasty, there was no precedent for an uncle to rebel and seize his nephew's kingdom." Guo Zhu lowered his voice and said in Cao Zhengchun's ear.
Cao Zhengchun suddenly realized that Emperor Jianwen had lost his kingdom to Emperor Yongle.
"You mean..." Cao Zhengchun stared at Guo Zhu.
Guo Zhu didn't wait for Cao Zhengchun to finish speaking, and immediately said: "I didn't say that, I was just talking about what happened in the past."
"Yes, this is just something from the past."
"So, in front of the little emperor, Zhu Wuli poses a greater threat than you, so the little emperor will help you. In order to check and balance Zhu Wuli, this is the real reason why you can compete with Zhu Wuli..."
"One more thing, Eunuch Cao, how do you think the little emperor will treat you if Zhu Wuwu is defeated by you?"
Guo Zhu's words completely stunned Cao Zhengchun, especially the last question.
If Zhu Wuli is defeated and dies, what will the emperor do to me? Cao Zhengchun thought.
It is nothing more than that the birds are gone, the good bows are hidden, the cunning rabbits are dead, and the lackeys are cooked.
After a while.
Cao Zhengchun bowed deeply to Guo Zhu and said respectfully: "After listening to Mr. Cao's words today, Cao is really better than studying for ten years."
"I didn't expect that in addition to his superb martial arts skills, sir, he also has such a profound understanding of the court. Cao admires him very much."
Guo Zhu doesn't know anything about court. He just has the knowledge of the 21st century. He can be regarded as standing on the shoulders of giants and guiding the country.
Guo Zhu smiled and helped Cao Zhengchun up and said with a smile, "Eunuch Cao, do you understand?"
"Cao, I think you understand." Cao Zhengchun sounded a little disappointed. He had been fighting with Zhu Wuwu for most of his life, and he was just a chess piece in the hands of the royal family. This was even more uncomfortable and humiliating than being a slave.
"In that case, Eunuch Cao still wants to come with me, will Raju ignore the dismount?" Guo Zhu asked with a smile.
When Cao Zhengchun heard this, the disappointment in his eyes disappeared, and he said excitedly: "Yes!"
"Our family has been fighting with him for most of our lives, and I won't give up if I don't pull him down!"
"Are you afraid that he will be liquidated by the emperor after his fall?" Guo Zhu asked teasingly.
"Afraid of being liquidated!"
"Good!" Guo Zhu praised him and said, "I feel relieved that Eunuch Cao has such pride, hahaha."
"Sir, there is something unclear about Cao. Why is he so obsessed with defeating Zhu Wu?" Cao Zhengchun asked.
I can't tell you, I just want to complete the system tasks.
I can’t tell you that Zhu Wuli will try to take away my advantageous elder brother’s property. Since I came to this world and became Wan Sanqian’s younger brother, I have to accept this cause and effect.
Thinking of this, Guo Zhu said loudly: "Of course it is for the sake of being the best in the world! Defeat Zhu Wuwu and become the best in the world in martial arts!"
"Power and money are just the means for me to become number one in the world."
"I see."
