When Han Zeng saw Shao Xi being so polite, he couldn't help but raise his head and laugh.
Originally, Shao Xi's participation in the Nan Zhao Chaotang matter had already yielded initial results. Unexpectedly, his future cooperation with Jing Yuan would also be helped by him. Han Zeng seemed to have seen the future in which he would be in power and sit on the throne.
"My little friend has decided to join us. From now on, you and I will no longer be outsiders. Whether it is the Nanzhao matter or the Jingyuan matter in the future, we must work together and get what we want. In the future, we will not say that we will dominate the world. At least I can be the overlord of one party."
Shao Xi cursed secretly in his heart: "You think so, you are just a tool for me to use here. Have you ever seen anyone befriending a tool? I will deal with you one by one when I use them in the future. For now, I will let you Be rampant for a while.”
"Master Xiangguo has promoted this junior, but I still dare not say that I will cooperate with Master Xiangguo. Although I have the intention of seeking refuge, I don't know if I can be accepted yet, so this matter of cooperation needs to be discussed in the future. What I have to do now is First, I will help Mr. Xiangguo to exclude the great general Fu Zuoliang from the court, so that Mr. Xiangguo can take charge of the power alone. In this way, I have done my best to pave the way for my future surrender. I will also invite Mr. Xiangguo to do so. I would like to say many kind words for this junior, and I would like to thank Mr. Xiangguo in advance."
When Han Zeng heard what Shao Xi said, he suddenly felt very proud. Shao Xi's arrival has broken the balance of power in Nan Zhao Chaotang, and now that he wants something from himself, Shao Xi will definitely do his best in the next thing and will not dare to hide his secrets.
At this moment, he seemed to feel that he had taken the initiative, and Shao Xi was a pawn that could be exploited in his hands. But what he didn't know was that in Shao Xi's eyes, he was the chess piece.
"Now that you have the handle on Fu Zuoliang, how do you plan to use this secret letter?"
Shao Xi smiled slightly and said to Han Zeng: "This matter is not difficult. Your Holy Lord has summoned this junior today and took me to the Pearl Palace because of the misunderstanding between Princess Haizhu and me. The condition for Your Highness Princess to forgive this junior is She wants the junior to teach her a set of body skills. Since she has the opportunity to enter the palace, she can create an opportunity to meet the Holy Lord. The junior will find a suitable opportunity to reveal Fu Zuoliang's secret letter to the Holy Lord. Then you will make a pilgrimage. The Lord will naturally be suspicious of him, and then the Prime Minister will add fuel to the flames, and this matter will surely come true."
Han Zeng frowned after hearing this, as if he was not very satisfied with Shao Xi's idea. He didn't want to delay such a rare opportunity.
I and Fu Zuoliang have been fighting for so many years, and they have always been unable to do anything to each other. Although on the surface it seems that the civil and military are the two pillars of the Southern Zhao court, in fact both of them want to tear down the other pillar. .
Now that such a rare opportunity was in front of him, Shao Xi's advice was to slowly blow the wind in front of Zhao Hongjin and then find an opportunity to mention the secret letter. How could Han Zeng wait?
"I think this method is not feasible, little friend. Think about it, you are going to Nanzhao as an envoy to finish the matter and then leave. Your stay in Nanzhao will not be too long. How can you make this happen in such a short period of time? Does the Holy Lord believe what you say? With your status, if you keep blowing wind in the ears of the Holy Lord, the Holy Lord will think that you, as a minister of Jing Yuan Kingdom, forged secret letters and deliberately undermined the relationship between the king and his ministers of Nan Zhao. relationship. In this case, the secret letter will lose its original value."
"Then, according to what Mr. Xiangguo sees, what should this junior do?"
"As an envoy of Jingyuan Kingdom, you must not be too ambiguous when mentioning this matter to the Holy Lord. Instead, you should show great anger. Someone in the Southern Zhao court actually colluded with someone from the Jingyuan Empire. This This is something that cannot be tolerated by the imperial courts of both countries, so your response to this kind of matter should be to question it in public, or even to reprimand it as an envoy of the superior country. This kind of behavior is normal. In addition, this secret letter has been obtained It cannot be said that this old gentleman of yours sneaked into the General's Mansion and stole it. In this way, you have lost the truth first. Didn't assassins attack the mission before? It can be said that this letter was obtained from the assassin. It was found on your body, so both your performance and the source of the secret message will appear very reasonable."
Of course Shao Xi knew this in his heart. He just took advantage of Han Zeng's psychology and deliberately came up with such an idea. He knew that Han Zeng was in a hurry now, so he took advantage of his eagerness to rationalize all his subsequent actions.
When dealing with a cunning guy like Han Zeng, you can't always be too proactive. If you are too proactive, he will find out that he has intentions.
At the same time, Shao Xi also listened to Lao Wu's advice, not to be too shrewd in everything, and to make the other party feel that he is useful but not a threat to him. So when Han Zeng asked Shao Xi what his idea was, he chose to use a not-so-good idea to guide Han Zeng to propose an idea that he had already formulated.
In this way, on the surface it seems that the idea came from Han Zeng, but in fact everything was within his own plan. He did not appear to be too shrewd, but also made the other party act according to his own ideas.
To put it bluntly, I want to do this, but I will not ask for it myself, but let you ask me to do it, so that I can achieve my goal without arousing suspicion from the other party.
"Sure enough, Mr. Xiangguo is still far-sighted, but I am still too young and have not thought carefully enough. Now that Mr. Xiangguo has made up his mind, I will follow Mr. Xiangguo's instructions and choose a public place where all the courtiers are present to expose it in person. After this incident, Fu Zuoliang will not be given any room for change, but what happens next depends on the Prime Minister."
Han Zeng didn't expect that things would go so smoothly. He originally thought that Shao Xi was young and energetic and would stick to his own ideas. Unexpectedly, he just made a few casual remarks and Shao Xi obeyed his words. This made Han Zeng feel even more proud.
Three days ago, he didn't dare to imagine that he would have such a good opportunity to bring down Fu Zuoliang, but the arrival of Shao Xi changed the situation drastically. What made him even more happy was that today he finally reached an offensive and defensive alliance with Shao Xi.
At this time, Han Zeng was extremely glad that he had advocated sending envoys to Jingyuan State. If there had not been that envoy, there would not have been Shao Xi's envoy to Southern Zhao, and there would not have been such a favorable situation for him. situation.
"This public occasion is easy to create. Tomorrow morning, I will propose to the Holy Lord to hold a banquet in the palace to cleanse the little friend. At the same time, it is also to thank the Jingyuan Empire for sending envoys to return. At that time, hundreds of civil and military officials will definitely come to the banquet, so The occasion is the most suitable. At that time, the little friend will use the attack on the mission as an excuse to bring out the secret letter. Of course, the banquet may become very disappointing, and I will set up a secret letter in the house later. How about having a banquet for the little friend alone, which can be regarded as a celebration for the little friend?"
Shao Xi secretly thought to himself, this old fox is really on the right track. He, Zhao Hongjin and Fu Zuoliang had just agreed to hold a banquet in the palace tomorrow afternoon. Unexpectedly, Han Zeng's idea coincided with his own, so that tomorrow's banquet would be It seemed logical.
This matter was brought up by Han Zeng himself, so it seemed more natural and there was no sense of deliberateness at all.
At this time, Shao Xi couldn't tell whether Han Zeng was too smart or too stupid. Do you think he was too stupid? The ideas he came up with were all those he had thought of before, but you said he was too smart? He actually kept running according to the path he drew, and he didn't even know it.
It can only be said that Shao Xi's plan is too big, and Han Zeng's plan is all included in Shao Xi's plan, so when Han Zeng is proud of his plan, he is like a joke in Shao Xi's eyes. But the protagonist of this joke is still laughing at others in his heart. This is the most ridiculous part.
Whether in the arena or in the court, the saddest thing is that the chess pieces think that they are just a chess player, and that every step they take is based on their own plans, but they don’t know that their so-called plans are just other people’s plans. part.
When Han Zeng was dreaming of the great dream of being in power and monopolizing power, how could he have thought that his fate had been decided by others not long ago.
He is destined to be just a stepping stone for others to reach the pinnacle of power. Both Zhao Hongjin and Fu Zuoliang will eventually step on him to reach the pinnacle of their own power. Even Shao Xi relies on him to achieve his goals.
In the end, his fate will be the same as all stepping stones, being severely stepped on and never being able to stand up again.
Seeing that the purpose of his trip had been achieved, Shao Xi stood up to leave again. This time he really wanted to leave. If he didn't leave, he was afraid that he would burst out laughing. Old Wu who was sitting next to him was already laughing. I can't hold it any longer.
Han Zeng personally sent Shao Xi and the two out of the door. After the two parties saluted and said goodbye, Shao Xi and Lao Wu got into the carriage, which slowly moved towards the direction of Guanyi. Today's things have been completed as planned, and it's time to go back and take a rest.
It wasn't until the carriage had gone some distance that Shao Xi and Lao Wu laughed out loud.
Especially Lao Wu, who had followed him all the way to the General's Mansion before, so Lao Wu knew exactly what Shao Xi said to both parties and their respective plans.
Seeing Shao Xi treating Han Zeng like a monkey, Old Wu couldn't help but want to laugh. He had actually seen Shao Xi, a kid full of weird ideas and bad intentions.
"Young Master, you were not like this when you were in Fengjiazhuang. Could it be that the black BMW knocked your head open? Since that incident, I found that you are a bad kid! Why are you all day long? Are you thinking of all these deceptive ideas? Who did you learn this from?"
Shao Xi thought, who should I learn from? This is what I look like! Am I telling you that I traveled through time and was this bad before I traveled through time?
"Who can I learn from? Didn't I learn everything from you?"
"fart!"
