Yang Wuhui suddenly thought of four words, that is, underground emperor.

Although he is not like the current Holy Emperor, the power he holds is not necessarily less than the current His Majesty.

The important thing is that Gao Zhijie still has money and can continue to support the scholars he wants to make them officials, and he can even corrupt those officials.

Slowly, maybe he can really do it.

Gao Zhijie's ambition is really too great.

Yang Wuhui took a deep breath and then asked Gao Zhijie, "What is your purpose for doing this?"

Gao Zhijie smiled and replied: "The purpose, isn't the purpose already obvious! In this world, money is not enough, you also need rights. And I can't control the rights, so I will control the rights. In life, either you have money , or have power, you will become a master of people. But if you can control money and power, you will not only become a master of people, but you can even control the destiny of others."

Gao Zhijie paused and continued: "I was born in the Zhe family, and I understand the importance of fame and wealth. Therefore, I want to control my own destiny, and I want to control the destiny of others. This is why I want to intervene in the imperial examination, and even change the entire The reason for the Great Song Dynasty."

Yang Wuhui and Shen Yi looked at each other and felt that Gao Zhijie's thoughts were extremely paranoid.

The existence of such people is indeed a great disaster.

And Yang Wuhui still has another problem, a big problem.

"I believe everything you said, but I don't believe you can do it alone. You know that Wantong Trading Company transports military equipment to the forces that are hostile to our Song Dynasty. Is this what you want to change in the Song Dynasty? Isn’t there a way?”

Gao Zhijie was stunned. He looked at Yang Wuhui and was silent for a while.

Yang Wuhui continued: "I actually believe what you said. You may feel that fate is unfair to you, and the world is unfair to you. But if you say that you controlled all this, I don't think so. I believe it. Rather than telling you your purpose, it is better to say that you are interpreting what others have told you about their inner thoughts. So when you face us, you have these thoughts, translate the other person's words, and then say It's what you said."

Yang Wuhui sneered and said: "To put it bluntly, you, Gao Zhijie, don't have such courage yet, because even if you are born in the Zhe family, your vision and sight can't go where you want to go. So being able to say this, even being able to Who is it that makes you so convinced?"

Yang Wuhui added: "I don't think it's King Shu!"

Gao Zhijie snorted coldly: "Yang Wuhui, although you are a disciple of Bao Gong, you have never received Bao Gong's true biography. If I didn't do these things, do you still think that there is someone else who can command me? All the things I did , all for my lofty ideals, so no one can order me. Even in the face of King Shu for so many years, I have always been obedient and negative. Because to me, King Shu only appreciated this beautiful piece of jade. And after that, Wan Tong Shang The growth of our business ultimately depends on me, Gao Zhijie.”

Shen Yi didn't know why, he couldn't understand the conversation between the two at all.

Could it be that in Yang Wuhui's opinion, there was a mastermind behind this, and Gao Zhijie was just a pawn?

If that's the case, then who else?

After much deliberation, he could only think of King Shu, but Yang Wuhui also said that he was no longer King Shu!

Shen Yi sometimes felt that it was not that he was not smart enough, but that some people were too smart, even so smart that others looked like they were listening to riddles.

Now, both Yang Wuhui and Gao Zhijie are both Riddlers.

Yang Wuhui looked at Gao Zhijie, unmoved.

Gao Zhijie also looked at Yang Wuhui, and after a long time, he said this.

"I have a doubt, please help me answer it!"

After hearing this, Yang Wuhui nodded.

"But there's no harm in talking!"

Gao Zhijie said: "With regard to the imperial examination fraud, you have been pointing the finger at Wantong Trading Company from the very beginning, or in other words, at me. Why are you so clear that I was behind the scenes?"

Yang Wuhui shook his head with a serious expression on his face.

"I said, you are not the manipulator behind this matter. You are just a poor chess piece, even a chess piece that can be discarded. As for how to point it at you so clearly, that is Lan Youzhilan at the beginning Your Excellency was framed and imprisoned by you. In fact, at that time, I had already found out about Wantong Trading Company and even you. However, the right servant of the official department suddenly committed suicide. Although the case has not been completely investigated, the court believed that the death of an official The Right Assistant Minister is enough, so I don’t have the ability to continue investigating.”

Yang Wuhui continued: "After that, you waited for a whole winter, or you were originally planning to interfere in the imperial examination. It is not considered dormant, but you were just waiting for the opportunity. I think you bribed others from the official department. Two examiners, that's why they were able to cheat in the imperial examination! They even replaced other people's test papers, otherwise I don't understand how you could cheat in the imperial examination."

Gao Zhijie nodded and said: "That's true. I said that money can make things worse, let alone people. I have been giving money to those two people over the years. When I needed them to do this, they were unwilling at first. But as long as I gave them enough money and did what they wanted, they agreed to me. So in the imperial examination, except for the fool Lan Youzhi, everyone else was basically bribed by me, so it was very easy to cheat. It’s so complicated as outsiders think.”

Yang Wuhui frowned and said, "Master Lan is not a fool, he is a truly pure man. The Song Dynasty needs such people as officials!"

At this moment, Gao Zhijie did not make any mockery.

Maybe deep down in his heart, he thinks so too!

If everyone in the Song Dynasty was greedy for power, how many people would be willing to do practical things?

After all, the hard-working people had already died at the moment when the Song Dynasty was established, and they did not enjoy the subsequent treatment.

Therefore, after several generations passed, their descendants have long forgotten the original intention of conquering the world, and instead stood high and oppressed the people. This is probably not the spirit of that generation.

Shen Yi asked at the right time: "Since Gao Zhijie is not the one behind the scenes, who is the manipulator? Which important minister in the court is he?"

Gao Zhijie also looked at Yang Wuhui. It was Yang Wuhui who Shen Yi just asked.

He knew that Gao Zhijie would not answer. Maybe there was no such person at all, maybe there was, but in a situation like Gao Zhijie's, he would definitely not take the initiative to speak out.

As for torture, the other party may not be afraid.

Shen Yi believed that Yang Wuhui knew many things that he didn't know.

At this moment, everything can be revealed one by one.
