Chapter 484

When Wang Wenjie heard this, he was furious and said, "The Liu family is so arrogant?"

Fatty Wang said, "It's hard to say whether the Liu family is indifferent to the king's laws, but now the people of the three eastern prefectures live and work in peace and contentment. People only know that there is Liu Yuanqiao, but not the Emperor."

Wang Wenjie remained silent, and he knew a little about this situation, otherwise the court would not be so anxious to transfer him here to take charge of the area, in fact, it was to regain the power of the court and establish the authority of the court.

Now it seems that this is impossible. If you collect power from the Liu family, it is equivalent to a life-and-death result.

Sure enough, Fatty Wang also confirmed this point. He said: "The Liu family has invested a lot of resources in the three East Mansions. They will not give in until they recover their capital. Anyone who fights for power with them will either die or I die."

Fatty Wang is actually warning me not to wade into this muddy water. The water is very deep. You think that you can easily seize power here with the imperial edict of the court. This is impossible.

Wang Wenjie said, "The three East Mansions are actually changing without saying a word?"

Fatty Wang said, "Although there has been no change in the sky, it is almost done. Now even the people can understand. Whoever can give him food, whoever can give him clothes, and who can keep him peaceful will be willing to follow. Today's Ming Dynasty is really worse than that. A small She'an Rebellion has been fought for ten years. Seeing that the Youko Rebellion is almost ten years old, when will it be the end? In Liaodong, the key place of the court, it was all occupied by Jiannu. The court has worked hard for more than ten years, but it has not recovered an inch of land. It is only continuous loss. The Ming Dynasty is setting in the west."

After all, Wang Wenjie was a formal scholar and was deeply influenced by the idea of ​​loyalty to the emperor and patriotism. When he saw his younger brother say this, he was very angry and angry. He said, "If you talk nonsense, be careful that I will send you to the government and punish you for being disrespectful."

Fatty Wang said, "The spring river is warm and duck prophet, brother, you should walk around the people more often and know the sufferings of the people and the direction of the people."

When Wang Wenjie heard his younger brother say this, he was angry and said, "What do you mean?"

Fatty Wang said, "Walking through the stormy reefs, you must know the direction of the wind?"

When talking about this kind of thing, Wang Wenjie was upset. He sighed and said, "Today is a rare day for our family to get together. Don't talk about these troubles. Let's sit down and have a drink together, right?"

Fatty Wang smiled and said, "I have prepared a banquet to welcome you, brother."

Everything in the Liu family was under their surveillance. Liu Bu and Liu Yuanqiao naturally would not come to visit this very important ally who had never met, but they sent Wang Wendong, a more important military advisor around him to let him see him.

Wang Wendong and the Wang family are the same clan, and Grandpa Zeng is a brother, but after several generations, the relationship has long faded. Wang Wenjie's branch is rich and prosperous, and Wang Wendong's branch is poor and indignant. If it were the past, he would not even enter the main gate when he went to visit the Wang family. He could only barely meet at the ancestor worship meeting. But now, as Liu Yuanqiao's master, Wang Wendong can enter from the main gate and enter the room.

Wang Wendong has no fame yet, but when he saw Wang Wenying, who was famous for his second-rank official position, he just bowed deeply and said, "I have heard of the great name for a long time. I will see it today and my reputation is worthy of it."

Wang Wenjie was not very considerate of the lackeys around Liu Yuanqiao, especially the other party failed many times and had no fame and fame, which was a huge difference from the birth of a Jinshi, so he said directly: "You are the one who came to find out on behalf of Liu Yuanqiao. You can go back, and I will not work hard for him."

He was thinking that Liu Yuanqiao must have known that he was at home, so he sent someone to recruit him.

Wang Wendong said, "Mr. Wang is so bad. Good birds choose trees to live in, loyal ministers choose masters to serve. Master. Wang is talented, why don't he choose a wise master to serve?"

Wang Wenjie sneered and said, "What kind of wise ruler is Liu Yuanqiao? He is not as good as his official? What's so great about a member of the Yinguan family?"

Wang Wendong was not angry either. He said, "You are the king, the general, and the minister, and don't ask the heroes where they come from. I wonder if Emperor Taizu had also been a monk and a beggar back then? Didn't he accomplish a great thing in the end?"

Wang Wenjie directly criticized him for his mistakes, and he said, "Bold! Why can Liu compare with Emperor Taizu? This is a crime of disrespect. If this official had not asked for leave at home, he would have sued you for nonsense and insulted the previous saints on the spot."

Wang Wendong said, "May I ask, do you know why the world of Ming Dynasty is getting worse every day. A small She'an Rebellion has been quelled for ten years but it cannot be quelled. A small rebellion of bandits has become more and more chaotic, and has reached a turmoil in the world. What's more, even the Fengyang of Zhongdu was broken and the dragon vein was broken. Let me ask who has been cut off from all dynasties from ancient times to the present, and who has been broken without any damage?"

Wang Wendong's words asked Wang Wenjie's pain, but he seemed a little embarrassed. He said: "The Ming Dynasty expelled the Tartars and gained the country's integrity. No one has ever been there since ancient times. After more than two hundred years of ups and downs, there were occasional obstacles, and they were all not very much. Today's emperor is diligent in his work and loving the people and working hard to govern. I believe that within ten years, the situation in the Ming Dynasty will improve. If you don't lose your way, you will have to die."

Wang Wendong smiled faintly, and he said, "The nine years when Zi was in power today were the nine years when the Ming Dynasty was getting worse day by day. Imagine that when the late emperor was in power, he could still fight against Jiannu, but now he has any advantages against Jiannu and bandits? There is a saying that luck can work together, and luck can bring water to the teeth. When Emperor Taizu raised an army from Huai Si, he was victorious in every battle and was very lucky. But now the emperor is so unlucky. Lord Wang really doesn't think about why this is?"

Speaking of this, Wang Wenjie couldn't help but ask: "What did you think is the reason?"

Wang Wendong said, "This is because the Ming Dynasty has exhausted its energy, so this situation occurs. Otherwise, how could such a great deal of discomfort?"

Wang Wenjie said coldly: "You are just a traitor."

Wang Wendong said: "Since ancient times, there have been dynasties where the imperial tombs were dug up can continue?"

This sentence really made Huang Wenjie feel in his heart. When the other party asked this, he was uneasy.

Wang Wenjie has been in the capital for a long time and has always believed that the world is peaceful. Although there are occasional minor problems in the Ming Dynasty, he still overcomes it. However, when he heads south and returns to Shandong, he is shocked to see the withering of people all the way. Hebei and Shandong are the essence of the Ming Dynasty. It is really not necessary to have withered so much.

It was not until we entered the territory of the Three East Prefectures that it was improved. The people were busy farming, and the people on the streets looked numb and unsightly like other places. People's faces were filled with joy and hope for the future.

Wang Wenjie once inspected the place, and only the people in that rich and prosperous place could see signs.

Wang Wenjie is undoubtedly a talented person. He was a Jinshi at the age of 30. He has worked as an inspector in the local area and has also worked as an official in the hall department. He is considered a good figure.

Although Wang Wenjie was a man in the clear stream, he was not the kind of person who only knew how to talk and had no practical ability to do things. Some people even couldn't believe that although Wang Wenjie was famous for his morality, his riding and shooting skills were quite impressive. He was a true figure with both civil and military skills. Other officials could only read a few military books and talk about military affairs on paper, so they dared to say that they were both civil and military.

When he was in the capital, Wang Wenjie was willing to disguise himself and go to the streets and alleys to listen to the voices of the people when he had time. Therefore, he was not unaware of the current situation of the Ming Dynasty, but it also aroused his ambitions. He told himself, "What I lack is an opportunity. As long as the opportunity comes and he is in power, he will manage his family, govern the country and pacify the world, solve all the problems for His Majesty the Emperor, and win the reputation before and after death."

But what he never expected was that his younger brother and his mother were so dissatisfied with the Ming Dynasty, and they actually thought something was going to happen to the Ming Dynasty, and they all wanted to change their faces.

His mother said this meaning and idea a little concealed, but Fatty Wang said it very directly, and he did not hide it. He was doing things for the Liu family and shouting for the Liu family.

Faced with this situation, Wang Wenjie couldn't help but feel hesitant. He saw that the other party was here to be a lobbyist, and there was nothing to say. After chatting for a few words, he drove him away.

However, Fatty Wang was very polite to Wang Wendong. After he was driven away, he chatted with him in the gatehouse for a while. Before leaving, he even gave him a gift and said loudly: "Everyone will drink together another day."

When Fatty Wang sent Wang Wendong away, he returned to the main hall and saw his brother drinking tea in the main hall. He had no expression on his face and didn't know what was thinking in his heart.

Fatty Wang said, "Wang Wendong is very capable, but unfortunately he is not lucky and failed many times. In terms of ability, he is more than enough to be a prefect. Lord Liu can manage the three East Palaces so well, but this person has made great efforts."

Wang Wendong said, "Do you know what the consequences will be if you get involved with the Liu family?"

Of course, Fatty Wang knew what the Liu family was doing, but he also knew what the outcome was to fight against the Liu family. It was probably not the current glory. The Liu family wanted to destroy him and make him lose his reputation. It was just a few words. So he said: "The world is unstable. If you want to have a peaceful meal in the East Three Prefectures, you really can't live without the Liu family. If you go against the Liu family on this ground, you won't have a good life."

Wang Wendong said: "The Wang family has fields and land, so how can we say there is no good life?"

Fatty Wang said, "Brother, you must understand what I mean. There are thousands of people relying on our Wang family for dinner. If we are not under the Liu family, we will probably leave us and will be rich and honorless. Brother, you are an official and have great ambitions, but you must also know whether this ship can carry you to the other side. Now, we brothers bet on both sides is actually a good choice."
