The strict ones frowned, and the serious ones also frowned.
These two brothers with very different temperaments now really look like they are exactly the same.
Ying Zheng left the place after dealing with it, and the other guests dispersed with different expressions.
Gongsun Yi was thrown out of the back door of the hotel, with a muffled sound as his body landed on the ground, and a cloud of dust was thrown up.
He coughed twice weakly.
A carriage passed by here at this moment, stayed briefly, and then drove away again. Gongsun Yi was no longer at the door.
"...I admire your husband's talents very much. How can I bear it now that my pearls are covered in dust? You just stay here and wait until this matter is settled. Then you will make sense."
The person who picked him up was Zhongshu Ling Li Yan.
The latter did not have the status of being a minister, and took Gongsun Yi to his house like a good friend who had known him for many years. He treated him with great courtesy, quietly asked a doctor to diagnose his pulse, and comforted him. : "Your Highness, the Sixth Highness, is a wise man. The reason he is like this today is not because he really wants to abandon you, but to protect you from the counterattack of the old nobles."
Gongsun Yi was extremely grateful for Li Yan's kindness. After leaning on the collapse and thanking him again and again, his face finally showed a bit of sadness: "After learning martial arts, I will be able to return to the emperor's family. Then thunder and rain, naturally." It’s all your kindness.”
Li Yan felt something, so he couldn't help but comfort him a few words. When he saw Gongsun Yi again, his face looked tired, he said goodbye considerately and left the place.
Li Yan's son was always with him. He was the one who drove Gongsun Yi to his home at the back door of the hotel.
After leaving the guest room, he asked in a low voice the doubts in his heart: "Why don't you tell me about your visit to the abbot's house today? In this way, you will be able to get Mr. Gongsun's gratitude even more." .”
"Why so?"
Li Yan said calmly: "Too much is not enough."
His son's brows flashed with hesitation: "If your Majesty knows that you have taken this person in..."
Li Yan said nonchalantly: "Your Majesty probably didn't expect His Highness Sixth Prince to protect him, so how could he be distracted in advance? Besides, even if he knew, it wouldn't be a big deal."
When he was young, Li Yan made a great wish to be the best person in the world. Now that he is the prime minister, he has lived up to it. However, he has Jiang Maoyan above his head. He is so valued by the emperor that he has not been there for decades. Move.
Jiang Maoyan didn't move, how could he move?
The emperor is unwilling to ask Jiang Maoyan to step down from his position as prime minister, but the next emperor may not be willing to do so either.
Jiang Maoyan was accomplished by the emperor's heart, and he will definitely be destroyed by the emperor's heart!
The emperor is already old, and he is obviously considering his successor. When the sixth prince comes to power, Jiang Maoyan, a minister who won the heart of the late emperor, will not be allowed to continue to be the prime minister.
The sixth prince was willing to protect Gongsun Yi at such a critical moment, which shows that he is a monarch who cherishes his subordinates. When he gets the throne, will he forget this hero who once fought for him?
Gongsun Yi knew the cause of his disaster this time, so how could he remain calm in his heart? Members of the Zongheng family were known for their unyielding vengeance!
He may not be able to retaliate against the emperor, but he will definitely not be on bad terms with the emperor's best courtiers in the future, and even if he gets the chance, he will add insult to injury - this has nothing to do with moral character, but with human nature.
You have no grievances, and you are even still doing things for A, but because you did it so well, A wants your life.
You were protected by someone and escaped. B is the person A is best friends with and cares about the most. Now that A is dead and you have gained power, you choose:
1. Cooperate sincerely with B and be a good teammate.
Second, if I can’t take care of A, can’t I also take care of B? !
If you can't beat this man, you can still kick the widow's door (no) after he dies!
Li Yan's son knew very well that his mind was not good enough to compare with his father's. Of course, he did not dare to question his decision. He only cautiously mentioned: "But my son feels that Mr. Gongsun may not be unreasonable." I know your thoughts..."
Li Yan, dumbfounded, patted his son on the shoulder and laughed out loud: "Of course he knows!"
If he doesn't even know this, wouldn't I save a lonely person by saving him? !
But it doesn't matter.
We have common interests, and that is enough.
In the guest room, Gongsun Yi could only remain lying on the floor because of his back injury.
But even so, his mind did not stop functioning.
"...I am a foreign scholar, and I have deep grudges against the old aristocracy. I don't have the deep relationship with the Sixth Prince that I developed when I was young like Emperor Zhou and Jiang Maoyan. I'm afraid I won't get the Prime Minister in a short time. s position."
"But Li Yan can. He has the qualifications and is popular."
"The most important thing is that, like me, he doesn't like Jiang Maoyan..."
"Let him serve as Prime Minister for two years and wait for me to gain a firm foothold before kicking him off!"
…
At the Yinghou Mansion.
Strictly inform your father about today's events - mainly what happened in the Sixth Prince's residence.
Yinghou was silent for a moment and did not comment on this. He just told his son: "I got the glory today because of raising horses, not because of anything else. Concentrate on doing what you are good at." It's good if you have a clear conscience about things."
I responded strictly and respectfully.
After walking out of the door and returning to his own residence, he saw his silly brother sitting by the bed, hugging his knees, and looking at the flickering fireflies outside the window.
Zheng Zhen knew he was coming and didn't look back. He still looked out the window and said, "No wonder dad hates politicians. I hate politicians too."
Strict silence.
Zheng Zheng was also silent for a while, and then continued: "I really want him to come to our house to be a cook. I feel that being a cook is better than being a guest. At least, he will not encounter unexpected disasters."
Yan Kuanfu said to his brother: "Everyone has his own ambitions. How do you know which one Mr. Gongsun likes more?"
"I know he prefers to be His Highness's retainer."
He said solemnly: "I heard it after I asked Mr. Gongsun if he wanted to come to our house to be a cook. It was also a slap on his body, and the blow on him was lighter than the one on us. Mine My brain is not as good as Mr. Gongsun and His Highness, but my ears are very good."
Strict silence.
He said seriously: "They probably have a tacit understanding for a long time."
Strictly said softly: "You can't blame Mr. Gongsun, and you can't blame His Highness either."
"I know."
He said solemnly and a little lonely: "I just hate politicians, they can't be sincere."
Yan Yan looked at this brother who had the same feelings as him and suddenly smiled.
He finally made up his mind: "After His Highness successfully ascends the throne, let's go to Hetao together. I heard that there are continuous horse farms and the best horses there. Dad got his title by raising horses. , the son of the Yinghou should also be galloping on the racecourse, and there is no need to stir up trouble in the capital."
He scratched his ears with a serious and expressionless face: "With our two minds, we can't mess with it even if we want to. We will only be messed with by others, right?"
strict:"……"
My brother is sometimes a little bit annoying.
Chapter 215
From the moment he entered the government office, Yu Zhenzi's heart was in his throat. When the accompanying attendant stuffed a wine flask into his hand, his heart was ready to go straight to the back of his head.
What is this?
What's in the wine flask?
Who has the best wine jug to put wine in? !
Why?
What a wine!
Is this wine a "serious" wine? !
Yu Zhenzi almost superimposed the heartbeats of the rest of his life to today. When the sixth prince finally drank a glass of wine and walked away, he followed him out only to realize that the inner clothes on his back were all covered with blood. All of them were wet with cold sweat.
The sixth prince got into the carriage by himself, with a sullen expression on his face as he didn't know where he was going. Yu Zhenzi wanted to ask, what should you do with me, Your Highness?
Is it killing or letting go? You have to say something, don’t do it in such a torturous way!
But looking at the look on the sixth prince's face at this moment, he didn't dare to ask.
The sixth prince got on the carriage with his front legs, and he quickly climbed up with his hind legs, just like a heeling dog. He went wherever the sixth prince went. After such operations, he finally entered the palace again... …
Now that we're here, if we don't talk, I'm afraid it will be over.
Yuzhenzi fell to the ground and cried in pain: "Your Highness, what are you going to do with this villain? No matter what, you have to give me something!"
Ying Zheng glanced at him, but said nothing. He went to the side hall to change his clothes first, preparing to go to the emperor for a tough battle. After changing clothes and passing by Dayu Zhenzi, he vomited it out in a neither salty nor bland manner. One sentence: "Go back to your alchemy room."
He said: "There are several prescriptions in the box where the cinnabar is placed. You can refine it and see. If it doesn't work, call a few more alchemists. If it doesn't work, you can also seek help from the Mohists."
Yu Zhenzi wanted to say "Huh?" in confusion, but looking at the expressionless face of the Sixth Prince, he still didn't dare. He answered honestly and trotted to the alchemy room. .
After arriving at the place, he realized belatedly - he had passed this level, right?
Oh my god, have you passed the test? !
Several people in the space also laughed. Li Shimin teased and said: "Yu Zhenzi has caught up with the good times. The First Emperor's temperament is much gentler now. If this had happened before..."
Liu Che continued in a tacit understanding: "In the area around Yuzhenzi's house, all the earthworms within a radius of ten miles have to be raised up and cut open!"
Li Yuanda couldn't help laughing and asked: "First Emperor, why do you still keep him? Making gunpowder?"
Ying Zheng added four more words: "And alchemy."
The rest: "..."
Well, let’s just say it starts well and ends well.
Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but raise his forehead: "You haven't given up yet?"
"I gave up. There is probably no such thing as cultivating Taoism and becoming an immortal in this world."
Ying Zheng sighed slightly, looking a little lonely, and then said: "However, it doesn't cost anything anyway, just ask him to continue making alchemy. It will also make people think that I really believe in this."
Li Shimin hesitated and said: "Then?"
Ying Zheng: "When I meet someone I don't like and can't kill him directly, I will give him the elixir to eat. I will poison him scientifically by dividing the batches and following the process."
The rest: "..."
Ah this? ? ?
Buddha.
