fake prince

Chapter 262

"The Confucians of the world say that reading Wang Feng and knowing that the Zhou Dynasty will no longer flourish is not deeper than the poet's words!"

"Fang is the political religion of the time. Although it is prudent, it is down, the etiquette and customs have not changed, its gentlemen embrace righteousness and benevolence, and its small people fear the law and pant. It is not too late to rejuvenate Zhou with Dao!"

The ancient scholars read for real, not for reading. Jian Qu’s voice was sonorous, and there was a faint sound of gold and stone between the setbacks. Of course, Su Ziji didn’t care about this. It floated up.

Su Ziji lowered his eyes and saw half a piece of red sandalwood: "Jian Qu taught you [Jane's Wall Chisel Notes], do you want to learn?"

Su Ziji replied: "Yes!"

Suddenly, a bunch of information came in instantly, and a light blue reminder appeared in the field of vision: "[Jane's Chiseling Notes] has been learned, experience +3500..."

"[Four Books and Five Classics] Level 16 (10081/16000)"

Although he didn't have much experience, but with the reminder, knowledge poured in, and Su Ziji's knowledge was combined in a new way and from a new angle.

"After I reached level 16, what I was afraid of was that I had no direction, and I felt that there was no way to advance. Now this is ingenious and unique. The most important thing is not experience, but a new way of thinking."

"I feel that there is no bottle for promotion."

Jian Qu was a little disappointed at the beginning, feeling that Su Ziji was a little careless, but after discussing it, he felt that every word was in his heart, as if he had known him for more than ten years.

"I just found out today that the ancients said that a confidant is rare." Jian Qu hurriedly concealed his subtle expression, even afraid that if he said too much, he would lose the feeling of consonance, and smiled: "Come, let's have a drink."

Su Ziji put the anthology aside, sat down again, and drank and ate food with Jian Qu.

After pushing the cup and changing the cup a few times, Su Ziji found an opportunity, pretended not to see that Jian Qu had something on his mind, and congratulated Jian Qu: "Speaking of which, I haven't congratulated Brother Jian before, such a big victory, the commander-in-chief will definitely be named Marquis , even if you are Brother Jian, since you are the commander-in-chief's staff, you may not be able to obtain an official status due to meritorious service, and it is a great thing to be a county magistrate.

Jian Qu was in a complicated mood. Hearing this, he shook his head and sighed: "That may not be the case."

It's true that the marshal made such a great contribution, of course he can be named a Marquis, but the problem is that this plan was made by two imperial envoys, and no matter how you look at it, these two are the main contributors.

Without the merit of making a determined strategy, even if the general was active in attacking the enemy, he could only say that there were no mistakes, and he had little achievements, but he did not stand out.

"Brother Jian is saying that the commander-in-chief may not be a Marquis?" Su Ziji pretended not to understand, poured another glass of wine for Jian Qu with a smile, and said, "How could it be? With such a big victory, the imperial court will definitely reward the commander-in-chief."

"Are you going to say that the credit is not given to the commanders and generals in the army, but to the imperial envoys?"

Su Ziji shook his head and smiled: "But even those who don't know anything about military affairs will think, how can Lord Shangshu, who sits high in the court, and Eunuch Zhao, who lives deep in the palace, know how to fight?"

"All of this must be due to the marshal, and no one will deny this. And this kind of great contribution to pacification, the title of Duke or a little bit, the title of Marquis is affirmed."

"When the time comes, brother Jian, who is following the commander in chief, will he have no future?"

After hearing this, Jian Qu smiled wryly.

As a person who knows the inside story, he is really suffering and can't tell now, because this unworldly merit is indeed the main merit of the two imperial envoys.

The assisted marshals and generals may not be in vain, but being a marquis is just a daydream, maybe you will be promoted to the first and second ranks, and some gold and silver will be given, so that you don't care about the previous things, that's it.

He picked up the wine glass and took a deep sip, feeling more and more depressed.

The two imperial envoys had a big problem for themselves and for the commander in chief.

The commander-in-chief was the commander-in-chief of an army, and he hadn't captured the enemy for two years. Now that the imperial envoys arrived, the enemy chiefs were about to surrender like this.

The people I follow are not doing well, and they are far away from the emperor in the southwest. What kind of future can he have as an aide?

The bitterness in my heart almost mixed with this spicy drink.

But I heard Su Ziji say: "Could it be that brother Jian is afraid that the superiors will not allow you to be an official? You don't have to worry about this. You are a juren, and you are qualified to be an official. This big battle, such a great achievement, is it not for the big Shuai wrote a good report and submitted it?"

"As long as the commander-in-chief's pen is tilted a little bit, and you are mentioned a little, even if it's just a small logistical skill, you will have a bright future. Maybe you can really become a magistrate. This is an official position that many Jinshi have worked for many years!"

"Now that you have it at your fingertips, isn't it worth telling the truth?"

"This..." Although Jian Qu asked Su Ziji to pour another glass of wine and drank it, he felt depressed and couldn't speak with a wry smile.

Could it be said to outsiders that this great achievement is not at all owned by the commander in chief?

After pouring a cup, blood was flushed on his face, suddenly a flash of inspiration, the cup he raised stopped in mid-air, his heart seemed to be hit hard with a hammer, bang, and suddenly thought of a loophole.

"Although Su Ziji's words were just unintentional, they can also be applied to the commander-in-chief!"

Jian Qu suddenly had this thought.

"Of course the contributions of the two imperial envoys cannot be denied, and I dare not deny them, but as long as they tilt down a little and protrude a bit, the commander-in-chief may be able to make him a prince and a marquis, and he will also have a county magistrate."

What is the magistrate? It sounds exciting, but Jian Qu has no hope, but the magistrate is indeed at your fingertips, just use a little trick...

"Presumably, the imperial court will not pursue the details when they are waiting for the big victory. Besides, there is no evidence. Who can prove that what the commander-in-chief said is not true?"

"Even if the commander-in-chief doesn't confuse black and white, there is still a lot of room for writing!" The more I think about it, the more feasible it becomes. I was already extremely disappointed, but at this moment, hope suddenly sprouted again.

"Brother Su Xian, I suddenly remembered that there is still one thing that I haven't dealt with. It's a confidential matter. I'm afraid that the commander-in-chief will ask you later, so I have to go back immediately and take care of it before I feel at ease. How about I continue drinking with you some other day?"

Since such an idea came up, Jian Qu naturally didn't want to delay for a moment, so he got up suddenly and saluted Su Ziji.

On the surface, it was an apology, hoping that Su Ziji would forgive him for leaving temporarily, but in fact, he thanked the other party for his unintentional sentence, which reminded him.

Su Ziji breathed a sigh of relief, and he did not waste his literary and artistic mind, and finally made this person understand what he wanted to convey.

Su Ziji pretended not to understand, stunned for a moment, and hurriedly supported Jian Qu: "Brother Jian, why do you and I have such a relationship? If you have something to do, go back quickly and meet again some other day!"

"Thank you Brother Su Xian for your understanding, let's meet again some other day!" Without delay, Jian Qu cupped his hands at him and walked out quickly.

Su Ziji stood where he was, listening to how many people were walking with him outside.
