Those who do not plan for the overall situation are not enough to plan for a corner.
Feng Linwen has almost unlocked the civet cat-for-prince plot.
Make assumptions based on his repeated modeling, and then summarize.
Even if it is not 100% true, it is at least 89% true.
We just need to verify it slowly in the future.
Feng Linwen had done so much and took the initiative to approach the Eight Wise Kings not just for verification.
It is also to truly have the power that can be mobilized within one's own control.
He has not forgotten that there is a Zhang Ye who is far away in the world, peeping secretly.
There is also Xie Yundao, who is guarding the border with heavy troops. Not to mention that the real Dongyang Sword Princess was like a thorn in her back, and her fellow Eight Immortals who had never appeared were like a fishnet in her throat.
These competitors are no longer just themselves, but also the weight of the forces and representatives under their command.
Feng Linwen didn't have the time to raise a rebel team, then purify the elite among them and use them for his own purposes.
There was no time to join the army, to polish himself in the army, and in the end he had to scheming with the civil servants, and was miserable everywhere.
Now that it has been basically determined, in the competition between the Eight Wise Kings and Zhao Heng, the Eight Wise Kings ultimately won the final victory.
Then it was time for Feng Linwen to use the power of the Eight Wise Kings to push himself forward.
Establishing a Jianghu organization with the Eight Wise Kings as its backers and taking control of this force was Feng Lin's first step in this direction.
The Eight Wise Kings took the initiative to come to the door faster than Feng Linwen expected.
Feng Linwen thought that he would hesitate for a while longer and find a few more candidates to consider and test.
But the Eight Wise Kings went straight to his small temple, obviously considering him as the first choice.
In the small temple, sandalwood exudes a light and calming scent.
"Recently, there are young people who want to plot against me... Master, have you heard about it?" The Eight Sage King looked at Feng Linmo with inquiring eyes, with an incomprehensible expression, as if he had seen through Feng Linmo.
Feng Linwen did not waver at all.
His expression was calm and composed.
If the Eight Wise Kings really knew something, it would not be him who came now, but his masters.
"I heard a little bit." Feng Linwen nodded.
Seeing that there was no strange color on Feng Linwen's face, and even his breath was very calm, the little doubts that arose randomly in the heart of the Eight Sage King naturally disappeared.
"Master, I don't know. Not only are there unscrupulous people from all walks of life who want to harm me, but there are also many heroes from the world who have gathered in my other courtyard and want to do things for me. It's just... ··After all, they are all those who are accustomed to freedom in the world and are difficult to control. Over time, they will interfere with the people. Master, he has a good reputation in the world, so he might as well come forward and restrain me well." The Eight Sages King said. To put it mildly.
But the general meaning is clearly conveyed.
When Feng Linyi heard this, he quickly evaded: "Although the poor monk is among the three thousand mortals, he is already an outsider. The prince has so many talented people, why choose another one?"
The Eight Wise Kings shook their heads and said: "Master, you don't know something. These gangsters, all gangsters, shout very loudly. They have already attracted the attention of the court. If they are left alone, what kind of trouble will they cause? It’s not beautiful. This king... is also difficult to explain, and is in a dilemma. If I personally control it, or arrange for those who are too distinctive to intervene, whether they will obey is a question. The more important thing is... In the court, Gong Gun and others Sir, what would you think?"
When Feng Linwen heard this, he sneered in his heart.
The Eight Wise Kings were not worried about what the civil and military ministers above the court would think.
What he was worried about was that Zhao Heng was overthinking.
They gathered in the rivers and lakes and roared in the city of Bianjing. On the surface, it was obvious that the use of chariots and horses was not that great, but the momentum was terrifying enough.
It's like being unable to eat mutton and causing a mess.
The Eight Wise Kings clearly disliked the fact that this piece of meat was hot, so they wanted to give it to Feng Linyi, who had some connections with him and could use it, but did not have much direct relationship with him.
He understood why the Eight Wise Kings came straight to him.
Feng Linwen no longer refused again and again, but after a few tactful words, he seemed to have no choice but to agree.
"The poor monk agreed to the prince, and also asked the prince to make a three-part agreement with the poor monk." Since Feng Linwen agreed to the request, of course he wanted to ask for benefits.
Hearing Feng Linwen's words, the Eight Sage King was obviously stunned, and then nodded and said: "Master, if you have any request, just say it, if it is okay, I will grant it."
Such words sound heroic and extremely flexible, without much sincerity.
Feng Linwen didn't mind and said directly: "First of all, these heroes of the world must be provided with wine, meat, singing, dancing, and food and drink every day, otherwise there is no guarantee that some people will be dissatisfied and take the opportunity to cause trouble. I'm just a monk, not an official in charge. I'm afraid I can't handle all the messy things."
This is of course nonsense.
He has even been the emperor, why can't he control it?
I just don’t want to worry too much about it! Wine, meat, wealth and sex are one of the best ways to attract people's hearts. Although it is tacky, it has been used throughout the ages. After all, the vast majority of people are lay people. Those true heroes, whose righteousness and generosity are as great as the sky, are, after all, only a minority among the minority.
And in the 21st century, there is a very famous pacifier theory.
To put it simply, it is to use the most direct, simple and superficial venting entertainment, such as beep beep beep beep beep and beep beep beep beep beep. As well as satisfying entertainment, such as good food and drink, various ditties and stories. To paralyze people, let them be satisfied with reality instead of having higher pursuit of more rights and desires.
This is conducive to rulers, management and rule.
Strictly speaking, this is somewhat similar to the policy of obscuring the people.
The difference is that the policy of obscuring the people is a blockade of wisdom, like a seal stuck on people's heads, and people will always try their best to break it.
The pacifier theory uses people's inner laziness and easy-to-achieve self-satisfaction to kill people's aspirations and pursuits. Just like a tiger, if you keep it in a cage for a long time and feed it a lot of cooked meat every day to make it no longer hungry, then after a long time, it will not be a problem even if you use it as a cat.
After hearing Feng Lin's first statement, the Eighth Sage King frowned slightly.
With his financial resources, it is certainly not a problem to support these hundreds of people with food, drink and fun every day.
But for the same price, he could raise thousands of elite soldiers.
Or used to bribe dozens of dead soldiers.
I always feel a little unwilling to support these people who are accustomed to freedom.
"Your Majesty! Don't be stingy at this time. People in the world are very well-informed when they travel all over the world. If the prince treats them badly, if it spreads to the world, it will become a hundred percent." Feng Lin Wan's words hit the Eight Wise King's weak spots.
He could only nod in recognition.
But I have already made up my mind to wait for this turmoil to end and quickly disband these people in the world.
Seeing that the Eight Wise Kings agreed, Feng Linwen felt slightly happy.
As long as they have money and food, without thinking about anything in return, this is equivalent to planting the seeds of disgust for the team composed of Jianghu people in the hearts of the Eight Wise Kings.
If a person hates a person or an organization, he will subconsciously want to stay away from and reject it.
This makes it easier for Feng Linyi to go public through a backdoor scheme.
"Secondly, I also ask the prince to arrange more manpower and secretly join these people. Although the poor monk is responsible for the management on the surface, the real management should be taken over by the prince. The poor monk does not dare to take credit."
