"Humph, my national master said that there are no permanent friends and no eternal enemies. They didn't agree, and it's probably because they didn't give enough benefits. If they gave enough benefits, enemies are also friends." The young man said that this was his national master. When I came up with the idea, I was quite proud of it.
Zhao Si consciously heard important news.
He quickly asked: "Then what benefits does your national master plan to give them?"
The boy who was chatting freely just now frowned.
Zhao Si saw that he didn't speak for a long time, so he urged: "Tell me about it, let us learn from it."
"This...I don't know about this."
The boy, who had frowned for a long time, turned his head and grinned at Zhao Si.
Before Zhao Si could say anything else, the man fell down on the table and fell asleep.
Zhao Si: "..."
If he fell asleep when he got to the most critical point, wouldn't all his previous questions be in vain?
But I also found out about the person Kang Cheng met.
Based on the master's intelligence, he must have guessed what method Kang Cheng would use. It shouldn't be a problem.
Zhao Si has great trust in Chu Zemi.
Upstairs, after Kang Cheng finished explaining his purpose, Bai Qingwen fell silent for a moment.
Kang Cheng was not in a hurry, he just sat there holding the wine glass, sipping one sip at a time, waiting for Bai Qingwen to figure it out on his own.
Bai Qingwen didn't think about it for long.
He already had a decision in his mind.
"No." Bai Qingwen signed decisively without any hesitation, "In a larger scale, it is tantamount to treason. Although we love money, we will not risk our own lives. If Kang Guoshi has nothing else to say, Yes, then please come back."
Kang Cheng put down his wine glass and raised his head: "I am working for the Ming Dynasty. Your money will eventually be used for the people of the Ming Dynasty. How can it be said to be treason?"
"But you are not from Ming Dynasty." Bai Qingwen looked at Kang Cheng deeply.
It is true that this money was used for the people of Ming Dynasty, but the person who gathered this money was a foreigner.
If he loses the bet, he will be scolded.
He couldn't listen to me on weekdays, so if they wanted to scold me, let them scold me.
If Kang Cheng wins, then Ming Dynasty will have to give Ryukyu something real.
Isn't this treason?
When the emperor was angry, his whole family was killed.
Bai Qingwen believed that he had not lived enough and did not want to die.
How could Kang Cheng not know Bai Qingwen's feelings?
He looked at Bai Qingwen and said: "Master Bai, although this bet is made in Ming Dynasty, the bet has nothing to do with Ming Dynasty. If we really want to calculate it, this can only be regarded as a bet between Liu Qiu and Chu Ze." .”
"?"
Bai Qingwen raised his head in confusion.
Kang Cheng continued to explain: "Although this bet involves two countries, the bet is only paid by Chu Ze and Ryukyu. Why did Ming Dynasty pay it? Even if Chu Ze wins, the lottery will only go to Chu Ze. In his name." As for what to do with Chu Ze in the future, that was not within their scope of consideration.
He would not consider Bai Qingwen's words, because what he said now was to let Bai Qingwen know that this bet was not a bet between the two countries.
Although behind this bet is a bet between the two countries.
"He Chuhan is just a minor official and not an envoy between the two countries. How can he represent the Ming Dynasty? You help me, but you are just trying to cover me up. The money is still yours for the Ming Dynasty. I can't take away half of it. . At the same time..." When he said this, Kang Cheng looked directly at Bai Qingwen, lowered his voice slightly, and said with a bit of temptation, "You can also take this opportunity to suppress Chu Ze in repayment for what he has done these days. The hatred of suppression.”
Kang Cheng glanced under Bai Qingwen's butt.
Under Bai Qingwen's butt, there was a soft cushion.
This is because he has not recovered from his last punishment.
Bai Qingwen felt Kang Cheng's gaze, his face suddenly darkened, and he clenched his fingers subconsciously.
I have to say that Kang Cheng's words touched Bai Qingwen's heart.
Chu Ze...
He didn't like Chu Ze the first time he saw him.
However, the other party had a high status, so she could only grovel and wag her tail at him like a lapdog.
Now that he had the chance to take revenge and go back, it was impossible for Bai Qingwen not to be moved.
But he was still worried.
Seeing this, Kang Cheng continued to persuade: "Chu Ze is too confident and thinks that he will never lose. But once he loses, those things will fall into the hands of Liu Qiu. And your Ming emperor only He will know that Chu Ze lost the bet, but he won't be able to find out who paid for the money. If you come here, you will be safe, and you can still see Chu Ze's misfortune. Isn't this the best of both worlds?"
Bai Qingwen was heartbroken.
"Are you sure that the Emperor can't find out who paid for you?" Bai Qingwen was still worried.
Kang Cheng nodded: "Of course. From now on, we will no longer meet directly, and I will also make claims that the source of funds has not been found. And you are raising funds for me secretly. When the money comes, I will use other people's If you use your name, you will be safe. What's more, you can also direct and act in a play to raise funds for Chu Ze, but in the end something unexpected happened, making Chu Ze lose even more completely."
Bai Qingwen's eyes were shining.
Kang Cheng was really good at poking at his weak spots.
Bai Qingwen couldn't even think about it.
Especially since he didn't have to take any risks, which made him even more satisfied.
Bai Qingwen thought about it in his mind, and after making sure that nothing would happen to him, he immediately said: "Okay, leave this matter to us."
"Okay, it's settled."
"It's a deal."
When Kang Cheng came down, Zhao Si and the boy were lying on the table, already so drunk that they didn't know what was going on.
Kang Cheng frowned, called his attendants, and pushed the boy back.
As for Zhao Sima, he is not his person, so what does it have to do with him?
Kang Cheng left simply.
Naturally, he didn't see it either. After he stepped out of the restaurant door with his front foot, Zhao Si moved his body slightly with his back foot.
Zhao Si turned his head, revealing a pair of clear eyes from under his arms, looking straight at Kang Cheng walking away.
Zhao Si didn't sit up until Kang Cheng could no longer be seen.
Not long after, Bai Qingwen also came down.
The beating I received last time has not healed yet.
Bai Qingwen didn't walk very neatly.
With the help of the boy, he slowly got into the carriage.
After he sat firmly, the carriage drove towards the Bai Mansion.
Zhao Si stood at the door for a moment and decided to go back to find his master first.
At least tell Chu Ze about this.
…
Prefect's Yamen.
Chu Ze, Zhu Xi, and Zhu Di sat there.
Shen Nan's heart was beating like a disobedient rabbit living inside.
"Your Highnesses, Mr. Chu, I wonder why these three people came here?" Before Shen Nan spoke, he had already carefully recounted everything that had happened recently -
Chu Ze wanted someone, and he had already announced it.
Chu Ze wanted to repair the canal, and he also informed him.
Now that Liu Jing and Sun Zhengde have started work, and they haven't heard of any conflicts, what do these three people want to do when they suddenly come to him?
