"I..." Seeing the two old men staring at him at the same time, the eldest brother Shanbei panicked again, raised his hand to his head and said: "You asked me what I thought, so I said it. You said so today How can I remember everything, and you still want me to be flexible?"
"I don't even remember so many things you said, how can I change it!"
The two old men looked at each other and said in unison: "I lost."
Seeing that the two old men were not trying to beat him up, Shanbei's eldest brother Wang felt a little relieved, and then asked with some uncertainty:
"Both of you have admitted defeat, but neither of you are willing to help me?"
"Let me ask you, why do you want to be emperor?" Medicine Master Hui Ri asked.
"I..." Yamabei's eldest brother hesitated and said, "It turns out that it was because the previous emperor asked me to succeed, and my position was taken away, and I felt dissatisfied."
"Now...now it's because I don't think he's doing a good job and I want to do better."
He pointed at Tang Ping and said: "He said that if you want to make the people happy, then why can't I be the one who works hard to make them happy? So I want to give it a try."
Pharmacist Megumi and Inugami Mitsuda looked at each other, and then fell to the ground at the same time, which shocked Yamabei's elder brother Wang.
"I am willing to assist Prince Shanbei!"
"I am willing to assist Prince Shanbei!"
Two old and firm voices came, causing Shanbei's eldest brother Wang to look at Tang Ping at a loss.
Tang Ping said with a smile: "The two adults have recognized the prince, congratulations to you, Prince Shanbei."
Tang Ping's words gave Prince Shanbei some reassurance. He grinned and said, "So, do I have a sleeping dragon and a phoenix?"
Tang Ping suppressed a smile and nodded. If these two words were not derogatory, they would be appropriate to use here.
The two old men sat up straight and looked at each other with complicated eyes. The two of them had been fighting openly and secretly all their lives, but they didn't expect that they would join forces when they got old.
There is a saying that the person who knows you best is always your enemy.
Although the two are not enemies, they both understand each other's strengths and weaknesses. Now that the two old men join forces, the effect of one plus one is greater than two.
Sure enough, the two quickly fell into their roles.
"To deal with the Soga clan, the strength of the two of us will only be effective after you defeat the Soga clan in Nara. At that time, we can get more neutral families in the government and the opposition to support you. So now you have a way to defeat the Soga clan. Will Nara defeat the Soga clan?"
The eldest brother Yamabei said uncertainly: "We have formed an alliance with the Mononobe clan. We are willing to help them arm a stronger force, and they help me defeat the Soga clan."
"The Mononobe clan?" The two old men looked at each other and nodded: "The Monobe clan is indeed the best choice now. Firstly, they are the most severely suppressed by the Soga clan across the country. Secondly, they are the Hyundai clan. The insect is dead but not stiff, they are still one of the most powerful families now."
"But we must grasp this degree and not let the Mononobe clan become the next Soga clan."
Shanbei's eldest brother Wang grinned: "So we will also win over other clans such as the Nakatomi clan."
"This is not enough." Pharmacist Huiri said: "We should learn from the imperial examination system of the Tang Dynasty. We should not let the officialdom only have various noble families. We must know that the number of civilians is countless times that of the nobles, even if their chances of receiving education are smaller. Lots and lots, but there will always be some genius.”
"We can try to popularize basic education and discover talents among ordinary people."
"That's right!" Inugami Mita Shu added: "We can also follow the example of the Tang Dynasty and use these talents discovered among the common people as inspectors or inspectors to patrol various places to supervise state and county officials."
The two old men have been to the Tang Dynasty. Although they have lived in seclusion in the mountains and fields these years, they have never stopped thinking about Fusang's future.
Tang Ping also felt the terrible learning ability of this nation from the two men's teachings to the eldest brother King Shanbei.
They are now frantically absorbing the various advantages of Datang to develop themselves.
"One more thing is that you have to stand up for justice." Finally, the pharmacist Ehihi said to the eldest brother King Yamakabe: "Soga Ezo has controlled the government for so many years, but on the surface, he has not done many extraordinary things, such as For a scum like Su Wo Jianyi, when necessary, he can cut off his relationship with him, or even kill his relatives out of righteousness."
"So to bring him down, you have to stand firm on justice!"
"Great justice?" Yamabeko's eldest brother thought for a while and said, "I understand. From now on, we will spread rumors about Soga Ezo and tell all the dirty things done by the Soga family, whether true or false. Press it on him.”
"Three people become a tiger. If more people say something, a lot of people will believe it. That's how it works, right?"
After saying that, he looked at Tang Ping, whose face turned slightly red: "What are you looking at me for? I never taught you this!"
The two old men sighed. Those who were close to the red were red and those who were close to the ink were black. It had to be said that Shanbei's elder brother Wang had learned something while following Tang Ping.
"You name it, it's a way, but I have a better way." Inugami Mita Sagi said: "Actually, Emperor Suiko had a chamberlain back then. When Soga Ezo wanted to assassinate him, I secretly rescued him. Come down."
"He must have known Soga Ezo's unknown secret before he was silenced by Soga Ezo. At that time, I asked him what the secret was, but he said that if he could not bring down Soga Ezo, he would not die. Tell me this secret."
After hearing this, Tang Ping asked: "So do you know where this chamberlain is now?"
"I know, I paid for him to leave Nara City. He has been living in Aichi Prefecture since then. I wrote down the address and you go find him."
"If the secret he talks about is useful, then take him back to Nara."
"Aren't you coming with us?" Shanbei's eldest brother asked, "You know the food Xiaoluo cooks is delicious."
The two old men looked at each other and said with a slight smile: "We haven't left here for a long time. We are also going to visit some old friends. We can also start to make a difference then."
Tang Ping knew that they planned to use their influence to pave the way for the big brother Yamabei in advance. He did not expect that this guy was so lucky. He was rescued by Li Bai by accident and was taken out of Nara. Along the way, he actually started I have my own team.
But it would be good to send him to the throne of emperor. At least he wouldn't have to negotiate terms with someone he didn't know well.
His ultimate goal is just to obtain the mining rights of Sado Gold Mountain and Iwami Silver Mountain.
"In this case, two old gentlemen, please take care of yourself. See you in Nara."
