Chapter 138 Everything is Ready (Part [-])
But in the final analysis, it will be a long time later. A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. For the current high-level pragmatism, you still have to follow your own plan step by step honestly.

In his plan, there are currently at least three things that need to be done:

First of all, make sure that the high arch does not fall.How long Emperor Longqing can live is not under the control of high pragmatism. Although this emperor is likely to be a wise and foolish man who was underestimated by later generations of scholars for his political skills, as a little bee in the harem, his body is probably going to be bad. Son, trying to persuade him probably won't work.

Then we have to make the worst assumption. If Long Qing still dies at a historical point in time, then it is very important to quickly close the relationship with the crown prince.However, even if the prince succeeds to the throne, he has no real power in the early stage. At least in the first ten years, it is difficult to be in charge of major events. Therefore, during this period of time, it is Li Guifei who actually represents the imperial power. It would be better if he can still catch up with Li Guifei.

The only problem is that it is difficult to get in touch with Concubine Li Gui directly. Gao Wushi relied on persuading Gao Gong to promote the "Prince Playmate" incident, which created an opportunity to meet Concubine Li Gui. Concubine Li Gui's reaction is to be considered again.The other is the long-planned plan to win over Li Guifei's family, especially her biological father Li Wei.

Zhang Siwei was not considered in this plan, but Gao Wushi remembered that Zhang Siwei had a good relationship with Li Wei when he met Li Wei at Zhang Siwei's home that day. It is much more convenient to contact Li Wei, at least it will not appear too abrupt.But the premise is obvious. For this money-greedy and incompetent guy, I must be able to come up with the conditions to make him tempted, and it is best before Long Qing dies—if the crown prince ascends the throne and Li Guifei becomes the Queen Mother, Li Wei The value here will definitely rise, and it will cost more to win over.

As for Feng Bao, he already had a secret meeting with Zhang Juzheng. Although Zhang Juzheng had not agreed to join forces with Feng Bao because of his own situation, Gao Wushi still knew nothing about it.Gao Yushi's current attitude towards Feng Bao is still on the line of thinking of "if you can win him over, you should focus on him; if you can't win him over, then find a way to get rid of him".Specifically, it depends on whether his next "fame" plan can be implemented smoothly. If it goes well, he will have the opportunity to enter the palace to study with the prince every day, and wait for the opportunity when the time comes.

Feng Bao's advantages are nothing more than two points: he is Li Guifei's confidant, and he is the prince's great companion.If he can handle the prince and concubine Li, then Feng Bao is not a threat to him. It may be an exaggeration to say that life and death are a bit exaggerated, but there is really no need to be afraid of him; but if he can't handle the prince and concubine Li, then for him Feng Bao had to be more careful, try to win him over if he could, if he couldn't win him over, he could only try to get rid of him.

Gao Wushi, who always hopes that everything will be settled before moving, has even made a backup plan: if Feng Bao proves to be a threat instead of a help, Gao Wushi will try his best to persuade Gao Gong, and fight against Li Guifei's dissatisfaction, and take advantage of Long Qing's return. Feng Bao was killed when he was in power.If Gao Gong really wants to do this now, the probability of success is still very high.

After all, besides owning the No. [-] holy family in Tianzi, he also has helpers in the inner court. Gong was both grateful and afraid, as long as Gao Gong made it clear that he wanted to crush Feng Bao to death, Meng Chong would not dare not do his best.

Besides, Feng Bao and himself are not grasshoppers on the same line, they are actually a threat to him, why not kill him?Anyway, with Gao Ge always around, no matter how tyrannical Feng Bao is, he can surpass Xu Jie back then?If Long Qingchao offends anyone, don't offend Gao Huzi.

The above are just the preparations that must be made in the court.

The second thing to do is to raise hope.Raising hope is no better than raising fat. It is not enough to stay at home and study all day long. It is not popular these days to pretend to be a hermit in the deep mountains and old forests. a better idea.

The first idea is to move around more.Of course, walking around does not refer to visiting the garden at home, nor does it mean going out to bully men and women to eat flower wine every day. The "lofty ideals" of the "lofty ideals" can only be reluctantly given up.

Walking around means to appear more among the scholars in the capital, to build a good relationship with the scholars in the capital, and to make a name for themselves.It’s just that Gao is pragmatic. First, it’s time-consuming, energy-consuming, and expensive. After all, you have to participate in various poetry fairs, outings, and other messy activities. Second, you have to cater to their preferences and communicate with them. For couplets, composing poems, appreciating calligraphy and painting, appreciating cultural treasures, discussing current affairs, talking about cultivating one's character, maybe you will be called to attend some lectures...

It's not that Gao Wushi doesn't know these things, or he can't agree, but he really doesn't have much interest, and it's too much of a waste of time, not to mention that Gao's family is a master of practical learning. He has done a lot of these things, and he probably will To be taught a lesson by Gao Gong is like sitting crookedly.

Then only the second thought can be considered.The second line of thinking has a word to describe it: talk and act.Yan Shen means to say some famous sayings that shake the world, or to do something that is praised by everyone.

Gao Yushi decided to do the two together, merging talking and doing together - it depends on this wave of show operations prepared to enter the palace and become the prince's companion.

The last thing to do is to develop personal power.The personal power in the officialdom is high and pragmatic, and there is no rush to cultivate it. Basically, it is in a state of "it is good to have it, and there is no need to worry about it".For example, with the matter of Liu Xian and his son this time, after Liu Xian's affairs are settled, most of them should be counted as peripheral members of the "Gao Party", similar to Ma Fang and Zhao Ke—don't look at them being called Gao in the outside world. The direct lineage, but no matter how direct the military officials are, under the political atmosphere of Ming Dynasty, they can only be peripheral elements.The true direct descendants must be Gao Gong's disciples. Others, even Gao Gong's contemporaries and colleagues, can only be said to be political allies in general.

However, Gao Wushi felt that Liu Xian seemed to have learned a lot after being polished in the officialdom for these years, and he might be able to see the hidden meaning of his actions.If this is the case, then he should be able to guess his intentions towards Liu Ting.In terms of his own status and future, Liu Xian should not refuse to let Liu Ting get closer to him, so that he will have a team of military officials in the court in the future.

For a person whose goal is to become a civil servant, having one more general who is close to him may not have a great impact on the overall situation, but for the high-level pragmatist who is actually still a commoner at present, it is more or less a start.

　I chose the wrong time for regular release, and it was an hour late, sorry.
