I am the carpenter king

Chapter 96 Master and Disciple

() Although it is January, the weather here seems to be very warm, and the water in the pond has melted.The day is also very warm, it seems that winter is coming to an end.

The old man was sitting on a chair by the pond, but instead of holding a fishing rod in his hand, he was holding a book, reading it seriously.

"Sir, the disciple is here." A man in his thirties walked slowly behind the old man, bowed to the old man, and said respectfully.

Gently putting down the book in his hand, the old man slowly turned his head, looking at the capable man in white, the old man nodded lightly.Smiling slightly, the old man said lightly: "Have you heard about the capital city?"

"The disciple knows a little bit." The man seemed to have guessed that the old man would ask such a question. The man nodded slowly and replied in a deep voice.

"En." The old man nodded, and said with a blank expression: "We didn't do what we did last time. We thought we could let the teacher go back to the court in one fell swoop and take back the seat that originally belonged to me. Until now, the teacher still doesn't understand. What went wrong, and who is behind the scenes. If it is Sun Chengzong, the teacher doesn't know this person well, and he doesn't know what kind of person he is. Just listening to the news from Bei Jing, many Things are still uncertain." The old man sighed deeply, revealing a little helplessness in his tone.

"It's nothing. The master is too far away from the capital. According to my disciples, it's better to go to the capital!" The man smiled softly, as if he didn't take what the old man said to heart. In his opinion, his teacher doesn't need Ascend to the court, but be able to control the general trend of the world, this is the ultimate goal of life.

Glancing at the man in white, the old man smiled softly, and said slowly: "You! You know that you can't leave as a teacher, but you come here to say it. Although there seems to be no one paying attention to the teacher, as long as you I believe that being a teacher will spread to the capital soon. Now many people in the capital should have guessed that it is a teacher, but no one can produce evidence." Suddenly, a flash of understanding flashed in the old man's eyes, and he smiled wryly. Shaking his head, he said with some self-mockery: "I'm old, I'm old, it won't work well here." The old man pointed to his head.

"Sir, you are old, and your ambition is thousands of miles away." The man in white respected the old man very much, and said these words without the slightest affectation.

"Hahaha" the old man smiled, looked at the man in white with satisfaction, and said in a deep voice, "You are a good-looking talent, I can't be old. If I was young, I should have guessed it a long time ago. It seems that you already know this Now, why did you come here as a teacher this time?"

"The disciple guessed a little bit. Since the master can't leave here, but there must be someone in the capital, then the disciple is the most suitable candidate." The man replied respectfully.

Gently nodded, the old man said in a deep voice: "Yes! Firstly, because you are not famous, no one will pay attention to you. Secondly, as a teacher, you know your talent, so there is nothing to worry about as a teacher."

"I still have a lot to learn from my master." The man bowed to the old man and said in a deep voice.

Did not answer the man's words, the old man said indifferently: "You have the status of Juren, and next year is the year of the big exam, and you just go to Beijing to catch the exam. If you can do something about Liaodong, then try your best, if you can't, then decisively abandon it Drop. Although we have a lot of interests in Liaodong, those can be bought with money. If you invest too much, it is not worthwhile. You have only one purpose in going to the capital, and that is to secretly find out who is against us The main targets are Yang He, the censor of Zuodu, and Sun Chengzong, a scholar of the first assistant university in the cabinet."

"Yes, sir, I understand." The man nodded slowly and replied in a deep voice.After pondering for a while, the young man continued: "However, sir, this disciple feels that it is better to fight for the Liaodong matter. First, the senior brother is in Liaodong, so he can seek a future for the senior brother, and secondly, he can also get some practical benefits. You can also stop those people's mouths."

"This time in Liaodong, the teacher was a little hasty, because the last time, the teacher also lost his sense! The current situation in the court is very complicated, and the emperor's attitude is not clear, which is very troublesome. Xiong Tingbi killed He is not very popular, maybe he did it on purpose." The old man sighed deeply, is he really old?

The man was a little surprised, and lost his voice: "On purpose, why did he do this?"

Glancing at the man, the old man changed his face, and said seriously, "What's the matter with you? The word my teacher gave you is Zhishui (this role is played by Zhishui Shuyou), I just hope you can do it." When the sky collapses in front of you and your color doesn’t change, this heart is like still water, it’s not something you can just talk about.”

"Yes, sir, this disciple is ashamed." The man seemed to be aware of his inappropriateness, and said with some shame.

"For so many years of turmoil in the court, anyone who leads the army outside is the target of criticism. Xiong Tingbi has been in Liaodong for many years, so he can understand the truth. How did Yang Gao die back then? Although Yang Gao Although he was defeated, he was not guilty of death, but he was still killed. The Yang family has deep roots in Liaodong, and because of this, it was also feared by the court. This time it was a mistake as a teacher. Sooner or later, the Yang family will be wiped out by the court. , we can't get too close to them, Xiong Tingbi offending those people is a way to protect himself." The old man shook his head lightly, the failure last time was not useless, at least his mentality has changed.

"Great wisdom is like stupidity, Xiong Tingbi is also a smart person!" Zhishui nodded slowly and said in a deep voice.

The old man smiled lightly, and said mockingly: "Smart people don't necessarily live long. There are many people who are smart but are mistaken by their cleverness. Whether Xiong Tingbi's idea can be realized depends on the people sitting on it." Is the emperor smart? If he can understand his painstaking efforts, the emperor will naturally keep him, and then his goal will be achieved. But what if the little emperor doesn't understand? Then those mistakes are the cause of his death , Xiong Tingbi is playing with fire." The old man smiled coldly when he said this.

"Oh, what's the trouble! If you're not careful, you'll be doomed!" Zhi Shui also shook his head, as if he didn't agree with Xiong Tingbi's actions.

The old man laughed at himself, but did not speak.Under my own teaching, this disciple of mine has a deep understanding of my true inheritance, but it is the true inheritance of my old age.When I was young, wasn't I full of ambitions, wasn't I thinking about the world?Perhaps in Xiong Tingbi's view, if he can't meet a wise master and express his ambitions, then life is worse than death.

Xiong Tingbi was gambling, but he had long since lost this idea. What changed him?This disciple of mine probably never had such an idea!
