Chapter 224 stagnant suburbs

Faced with Zhong Jinhui's urging, Liu Xiyuan took a leisurely sip of a cup before speaking slowly: "After Prince Xirong and Princess Xirong enter the Imperial College, you can find a few people to dress up as Xirong waiters and go to the Imperial College to make a promise to them."

Isn’t it good to be tempted and tempted by the benefits of money and power?”

"Just for the sake of realism, the initial investment in gold and silver is not too small. It just depends on how much you can get back later."

Liu Xiyuan said lightly, but Zhong Jinhui shook his head.

"Not appropriate."

Zhong Jinhui said, "This is indeed a method, but if the students find out afterwards, wouldn't they feel that they have been humiliated?"

"Then don't let them know."

Liu Xiyuan said, "The princes and princesses of Xirong are going to the Imperial Academy. Even if someone finds out the clues, they can be blamed on them. As long as you find that these people are too different from the people of Xirong, someone will be suspicious.

You can also insist that you don't know about it. Anyway, the results of this assessment are not disclosed to the students. Afterwards, you can find any excuse and get rid of the black sheep."

When Zhong Jinhui thought about it, it seemed that this was the case, and he became happy again. After drinking two glasses of wine, he started to mutter again: "You said such a simple method, why couldn't I think of it?"

"You worry too much, so naturally you think complicatedly."

Liu Xiyuan said sincerely.

Zhong Jinhui shook his head, looked at Liu Xiyuan with slightly hazy eyes from drinking, and said, "I'm not as shameless as you."

"..."

Liu Xiyuan was speechless. He was silent for a moment and sneered, "Compared with your ability to cross rivers and demolish bridges, students are ashamed of themselves."

Zhong Jinhui looked at him, moved his lips, and cursed: "You ungrateful brat! You are not picky at all when you ridicule others? How can you say that about your mentor?"

After scolding, Zhong Jinhui hugged the wine bottle again and sighed, "Although you are irritating, if you really leave, I may not be used to it."

"You said you, you invited yourself to be the magistrate of Yuhuai County? Why don't you stay at the court and wait for me to take over in three years?"

Zhong Jinhui scolded Liu Xiyuan, "I was still thinking that when you finally became an official, I could retire in glory, resign and go back to drink with Lao Yuan and the others. But you failed to live up to expectations, and I was really pissed off!"

"

"If a student offends Prime Minister Xu, even if he stays in the court, he will just be targeted at every turn."

Liu Xiyuan said, "It's better to ask yourself to stay away from the court and feel at ease. Jin Ming and Fu Yu are both in the southwest area. I can still take care of each other when I go. Besides..."

As he spoke, Liu Xiyuan's voice lowered, "The current Holy Emperor will eventually give up his throne. If I can make friends with King Duan during this trip, I will have the time to return to the court in the future."

Zhong Jinhui was startled and asked: "Since you are willing to support King Duan, why did you offend Xu Xiangfeng? Xu Xiangfeng is the grandfather of King Duan and the leader of Duan Wang's party. If you offend him, can you still get favor from King Duan in the future?

"

Liu Xiyuan glanced at Zhong Jinhui and shook his head: "Teacher, you have been in power for many years, and you still don't understand the balance of power? The Xu family has controlled scientific research for many years. The kings of the past dynasties have tried their best to make the Xu family less powerful in the government.

There is restraint. Now that the Xu family has no heirs, it is a good time to take back the power of the Xu family."

"But a hundred years before Prime Minister Xu, after the new emperor ascended the throne, it would not be possible for Prime Minister Xu to say anything, and someone would be needed to check and balance him. But most of the people in the court were afraid of Prime Minister Xu's identity. So they wanted to become a holy master.

The chess piece that checks and balances Prime Minister Xu cannot be someone who is afraid of Prime Minister Xu."

Liu Xiyuan took a deep look at Zhong Jinhui and said, "What happened in the court today was not due to the students' whim. The teacher should know that the students were summoned to the palace a few days ago, right?"

Zhong Jinhui suddenly realized: "Is it the Holy Spirit's instruction?"

Liu Xiyuan nodded.

"The three counties of Yuhuai, Huailin, and Zhangyu are not as prosperous as the maritime trade of Lausanne City, but they are the economic fortress of the southwest. Now the national treasury is empty, the soldiers in the western Xinjiang have suffered serious losses, and the interior of the southern Xinjiang is empty. The Lord wants me to

Reopen maritime trade and revitalize Western Xinjiang with three towns."

Liu Xiyuan lowered his voice and explained to Zhong Jinhui, "The losses in Western Xinjiang are serious, and the troops in Eastern Xinjiang are filling in the south. If the two Xinjiang cannot be brought together as soon as possible, the situation will be formed in which the strength of Northern Xinjiang is the only one. The Holy Lord is probably afraid that Zhenbeihou will become the Marquis of Zhenbei.

The next Li Dingshan."

Zhong Jinhui smacked his lips when he heard this.

"It's not easy to be an emperor!"

Zhong Jinhui complained, "It's so tiring to go around and around."

"I'd better take care of my etiquette department and wait for the day when someone can take over. It's better for Ma Liuer to resign and go back."

Zhong Jinhui said, but changed the subject again, "I only hope that the prince and princess of Xirong will arrive quickly and complete the peace talks and assessments as soon as possible. If nothing happens, I will be Amitabha."

Seeing Zhong Jinhui's head full of lawsuits, Liu Xiyuan couldn't laugh or cry, and comforted him: "Didn't Your Majesty say that the Xirong envoys will arrive tomorrow? No matter how much we delay, the peace talks can be completed in a month or two."

"What's coming tomorrow!"

When Zhong Jinhui heard what Liu Xiyuan said about this, he complained more and more, "When a group of people were chattering in the court, they had already arrived at the post house outside Shili Pavilion in Kangdu City. I really want to enter the city this afternoon.

We’re here. I have to drag it, saying that the scenery in the countryside is beautiful, and I want to have fun and enjoy it. There’s a lot of nonsense!”

"Stagnation suburbs?"

Liu Xiyuan frowned, "The conditions of the suburban posthouse are rough and the guards are weak. If something unexpected happens, I'm afraid it's hard to tell."

"Who says it's not the case? But if they don't come to Beijing, can we still kidnap them by force?"

Zhong Jinhui held the bottle of wine and drank until his face turned red and his neck was thick. He refused to let go. He complained vaguely, "We can only let the guards from Beijing guard it."

"Aren't you worried?"

Liu Xiyuan glanced at Zhong Jinhui, who was obviously drunk, and was very worried about his habit of getting drunk at critical moments.

"If you have wine today, you may be drunk today, but you may not be able to drink it tomorrow."

Zhong Jinhui shook his head and sighed, "This peace negotiation will not be that easy."

After drinking all the wine, Zhong Jinhui spoke to Liu Xiyuan with his tongue hanging out, "Don't you have two days before leaving the capital? I'll leave the reception of the envoys to you in these two days, so keep an eye on me."

I finally brought you to the Etiquette Department, and you just slapped your butt and left, how can it be so easy?"

Liu Xiyuan, who was arranged by his teacher when he was packing his bags before leaving, couldn't laugh or cry at his teacher's rogue behavior, but he did not refute him.

He also wanted to see what kind of medicine the prince of Xirong, who had to stay in the suburbs, was selling in the gourd.
