Chapter 83

On the flower boat on the Qinhuai River, it was the first time for everyone to see that the self-proclaimed famous official Ji Zian brought another Li Ling, who was dressed luxuriously but equally embarrassed, to the wine table in such a mess.

Some deluded boatmen are really delusional now, holding the jug and not knowing what to do, Ji Zian said with his somewhat vague mouth: "Old Qian, bring me the best Huadiao wine that I put in your place, I Have a good drink with this brother."

It was agreed that it was the best Huadiao, so it was naturally the best. At this moment, Ji Zian sighed and said, "I prepared this pot of wine for Zhengyi. For this pot of wine, I went to Shaoxing in person. On the way I also met robbers, and it can be said that it took a narrow escape to bring the wine back.

Thinking that one day, I can have a drink with Zhengyi, so let me and you have a taste first. "As he spoke, he was about to open the jug, but was stopped by Li Ling.

"It's not impossible," he said.

At this moment, Ji Zian had calmed down, he shook his head and said, "It's useless, you may not understand what the Zhou family is, but I understand, even if you reconcile with Zhengyi, they can let Zhengyi become a monk, it's okay. They won't fulfill me, they cherish their reputation too much."

After speaking, he had already opened the flagon.Li Ling sighed: "Is there such a family in the world?"

Ji Zi'an shook his hand: "You don't understand."

Li Ling frowned: "Why don't I understand? I have read no less than ten thousand books in the world. From ancient times to the present, there is no book with this principle."

Ji Zi'an smiled, looked up at Li Ling and said, "Did anyone say that your studies are useless?"

As soon as these words came out, Li Ling's heart skipped a beat. Isn't this what the old man and little Ling'er said when he entered the Tianji Building?Why did Ji Zian say that?Li Ling asked with doubts: "Why do you say that?"

Ji Zi'an smiled: "I asked you what book you read?"

Without thinking about it, Li Ling said, "Of course it's the Four Books and Five Classics. What about these? Could it be some useless books?"

Ji Zi'an smiled: "Looking at your pedantic appearance, I know what books you are reading. Of course, it is really useful for ordinary people. After reading these books, you can gain fame and become an official. It's good. But you are not suitable."

Li Ling was even more confused: "Why?"

Ji Zian said: "Because the emperor has no son."

The mist on Li Ling's head became thicker: "Brother Zi'an, I don't understand what you said even more. What does it have to do with what books I read because the emperor doesn't have a son?"

Ji Zi'an sighed: "Brother Li Ling, you are a prince, and the emperor has no sons, so of course he will choose one of you princes, but the emperor thought, what if you princes become princes and you give birth to a son yourself?
Let's find a chance to abolish you, who doesn't want to inherit the father's business, and there is a reason to give away the throne?That's the throne, but if you don't pick you, you can't stand the pressure. The ministers are noisy every day, and the country can't live without a king. Although it's a bit rebellious, it's the same reason, isn't it?

But you are lucky, you study hard and have a good character. It is inevitable that you will get the love of some ministers. Now the ones who have the best chance are you and the prince of Luoyang, but the king of Luoyang is your uncle. He and the emperor have no relationship at all. You kiss the emperor, of course the emperor wants to choose you.

Now, why the emperor has not made a decision so far is not because you are too pedantic, otherwise you are still a prince, you would have been a prince long ago.So, even if you are talented, you must learn to restrain your edge.

In addition, if you only want to be an official, wouldn't it be good to let the emperor give you one?What kind of spring and autumn are you participating in?There is no need at all, what you want to read is the policy of governing the country, the art of controlling people, Sun Tzu's art of war, etc. You, too, are in the fog and don't know what to do next. "

After hearing these words, Li Ling suddenly felt as if he was enlightened, and he also deeply understood the reason why Xiao Ling'er saw her talking like that. Sure enough, they all said that Ji Zi'an was talented, and what he said was a bit shocking.

Li Ling quickly got up and bowed: "If I had met Brother Zi'an earlier, this would not have happened."

Unexpectedly, Ji Zi'an waved his hand: "Hey, it's useless. Although the emperor is half a hundred, he is in the prime of life. Who can guarantee that he will not have a son? If the little prince is born, it will be a crisis for you, and you may lose it." Life, you can be regarded as a great wisdom to protect yourself."

Yes, what he said is indeed correct. This is a muddy water. If the emperor does not choose him, he will not have to go through this muddy water. Naturally, he will avoid the disaster of killing himself. Although Li Ling did not think of this level before, but But he didn't think that he really wanted to fight, but now it's different, he wants to marry Xiao Ling'er, so he wants to fight.

So he said, "What if I don't want to protect myself?"

Ji Zian frowned slightly: "What do you mean?"

Li Ling whispered, "For you, for me, and for Zhou Zhengyi."

Ji Zian was even more puzzled: "Where did you start talking about this?"

Li Ling had already made up his mind, so he said: "The Zhou family cares about face, just like you said, even if I reconcile with Zhou Zhengyi, they will not help you, but if I sit in that position, I will help you ?”

Immediately, Ji Zi'an's mouth grew big, his eyes were full of panic, he said in a daze, "You want to be?" He didn't continue, but pointed to the sky.

Li Ling nodded: "Only in this way can we each get what we need, so do you dare to help me blog, even for Zhou Zhengyi, how about it?"

Ji Zian got up quickly, and the smell of alcohol suddenly dissipated. He was terrified now. If he had talent, he was indeed talented, but he never thought he was talented enough to make such an idea, but he also admired Zhou Zhengyi so much. of.

How could he really give up his sweetheart willingly? At this moment, a fierce struggle was already taking place in his heart. After a long time, Ji Zian turned around abruptly and asked, "Is what you said true?"

Li Ling nodded cautiously: "Are you afraid for Zhou Zhengyi?"

Ji Zi'an let out a long sigh. At this time, he also knew that if he wanted the Zhou family to agree, the only way was to get the imperial decree from the emperor, but this imperial decree, he couldn't make the current emperor come down. If, he meant that if Li Ling If you can, this is also an opportunity.

Ji Zian was finally defeated by his sensibility, sat down and said, "If, I mean if, then will you help us?"

Li Ling nodded: "Why didn't Liu Bang kill Xiao He?"

Ji Zian is really a smart person, he said directly: "I want something."

Li Ling patted the table: "Yes, I just want something. If I give you Zhou Zhengyi, you have something to ask for. Then you can rest assured of me, and I can rest assured of you. It depends on whether you have the courage."

At this time, Ji Zian said to the boatman, "Bring the bowl."

After finishing speaking, he filled up the wine, stood up and held the bowl and said, "This wine is worth drinking."
