Number of romantic figures

Chapter 911 The Era of Changing Colors of Mountains and Rivers is Coming
As soon as Wang Ziteng returned to Beijing from Shandong, he received an invitation from Niu Jizong.

He is not in a good mood.

Shen Yourong quarreled fiercely with him, and both King Shou and Liu Yixiu, the right capital censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, warned to increase the construction of the Denglai Navy fleet, which would definitely affect the further growth of the Denglai Army, and this is their own The foundation of standing.

Of course Wang Ziteng knew that the Ministry of War was becoming more and more vigilant about his actions, and the appearance of Liu Yixiu was a sign. Although this time he passed the pass by luck, the Denglai Army no longer had sufficient military expenses to expand and train the army.

The meeting was arranged in the garden in the depths of Guanghua Temple Street in Rizhongfang.

The Qu Garden is a very famous scenic spot in the north of the city, and it was also the private garden of the former British Duke of the Ming Dynasty. However, it later fell into the hands of one of the most favored eunuchs of Emperor Taihe when the Great Zhou Dynasty was established. Later, this eunuch was arrested for committing crimes. Emperor Guangyuan's execution fell into the hands of King Lu who was the nine sons of Emperor Guangyuan at that time.

After decades of passing by countless people, it finally became a private garden of wealthy businessmen in central Beijing, and the scale was much larger than in the previous Ming Dynasty.

Many officials and gentry who claim to be elegant and interesting like to choose this place as a place for banquets, poetry meetings and entertainment.

The garden was too big, and Wang Ziteng entered through the corner door at the back, and the entire left corner of the second half of the block was covered by Niu Jizong, so that the privacy could be kept to the maximum extent.

Wang Ziteng was not interested in drinking any wine, but he became more and more sensitive when meeting Niu Jizong, and it was difficult to avoid the eyes and ears of Captain Long. He had to seize every opportunity.

This time Niu Jizong also returned to Beijing to file a lawsuit with the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Households because of the issue of food and pay in Xuanfu Town. So he also took the opportunity to invite Wang Ziteng to meet and talk during the dinner.

As the banquet became more and more lively, Niu Jizong pretended to rest in the inner room in the garden on the grounds that he was unwell after drinking, but actually met Wang Ziteng.

"My lord is getting more and more impatient. I think he is too confident." Niu Jizong's expression was not very good, "Shui Rong asked Tang Bin and Yin Nan to go to Jinling. Ziteng, is Jiayu Village reliable?"

Wang Ziteng also looked gloomy, "The salt censor of Lianghuai has not yet been appointed, and the emperor has been evading it. The emperor is very unhappy. Fortunately, Tao Guolu is very knowledgeable, but he is just a transfer of salt in the two Huaihe Rivers, and his reputation is not right. , Many salt merchants are also waiting and watching, Jia Hua, hehe, it’s hard to say,..."

"It's okay for the emperor to procrastinate. He still doesn't dare to directly challenge the emperor. He can only procrastinate, but it seems that he may not be able to procrastinate." Speaking of this, Niu Jizong smiled, "I see how many emperors are there?" My son is also a bit frivolous, and he doesn't look like a gentleman, but the King of Fortune actually reported that he had an affair with Concubine Zhou, how would it feel if the emperor heard about it?"

Wang Ziteng snorted, "These rumors are just imitating the method used to pull the prince off the horse, so I said that the tree wants to be quiet but the wind is not stopping, but the evil wind is getting stronger and stronger."

"I had an audience with the emperor the day before yesterday, and there was indeed something wrong with the emperor's health. During my audience for half an hour, the emperor was extremely tired and tried his best to maintain it. I also noticed that the imperial doctor in the palace was actively preparing pills for the emperor. This is not a good sign. "Niu Jizong's news channels are also very well-informed.

"That's why his sons are only now becoming very active. They didn't dare to do it before." Wang Ziteng chuckled, "Brother Jizong, do you know that even a certain prince came to contact me, which shocked me a little. "

Niu Jizong couldn't help laughing, "This may not be a bad thing."

The two of them were tacit, and they could see the joy in each other's eyes. It seemed that the situation had finally seen a sign of reversal. Although the Supreme Emperor was still vague, I believed that one day, he would make a wise decision.

Taking a step back, even if the Supreme Emperor is limited by blood relationship, family affection and patriarchal ethics, and is unwilling to clarify his attitude, at that time, people's support and strength comparison will probably force many people to make rational choices.

No matter how bad it is, if you use strength to face off, I'm afraid the wind direction will reverse.

"Brother Jizong, I'm afraid we have to be more cautious and low-key. It's best not to pay attention to things that have nothing to do with the overall situation. It's just confusing people." The intriguing look in Wang Ziteng's eyes became more and more secretive, "You and I have been in touch with the emperor for so many years. Except for the physical factor, which is arranged by God, no one can arrange it, what about the others? Not to mention exhaustive strategies, the emperor has a backup plan for every step,..."

What Wang Ziteng said made Niu Jizong's heart tremble, "Zi Teng, what do you mean...?"

"What we see may not be true. Maybe people are waiting for us to make mistakes. We can't be caught by others." Wang Ziteng said calmly, "We still have to prepare for the worst, so Shui Rong arranged for Tang Binyin to go I agree with Jinling, anyway, Tang Binyin can't play much role in the capital, and Jia Hua can only add icing on the cake when you have an absolute advantage, I don't see the ability to give charcoal in a timely manner."

The joy on Niu Jizong's face slowly faded, and he glanced at Wang Ziteng, "Are you so pessimistic? I'm sure on Xuanda's side, but you're not going well on Denglai's side?"

"It's not these factors. If the emperor is really big, then of course everything is easy to handle, but what if the emperor delays for a year or two? The orthodoxy of the Great Zhou Dynasty is unshakable. Even the emperor cannot easily make a move. Losing this morality, The pressure we face will increase several times.”

Wang Ziteng was much more cautious than Niu Jizong imagined.

"Feng Tang and Chen Jingxuan have always refused to express their attitude. Do you think they are really loyal to the emperor? Don't you think that when faced with the emperor's will, they are not sure that they can suppress the generals under their command. Brother Jizong, do you think that in that case, Xuanda's generals will really bow their heads and listen to your orders? Even the Beijing Camp, which I have been running for 20 years, I am not sure of, Xuanda, are you so confident?"

"Chen Jingxuan needless to say, he can't control the situation at all in the three sides. With his seniority and prestige, he can only maintain a peaceful situation. On Chen Jixian's side, in the capital camp, this guy can't see clearly all the time... " Niu Jizong said impatiently.

"That's why we never pinned our hopes on what can happen in the Beijing camp. We only need to make it loose and not be used by any party." Wang Ziteng said plainly.

Niu Jizong took a deep look at Wang Ziteng, "Zi Teng, you are too careful."

"Be careful sailing for ten thousand years." The prince said back, "Brother Jizong, we must understand what we are doing, and we must understand the situation we are in. It is dangerous to overestimate the enemy, but it is even more dangerous to overestimate ourselves."

Niu Jizong frowned, "Yang Kedong is missing, do you know?"

"Of course I know. If it wasn't for this matter, I wouldn't have come to see you." Wang Ziteng nodded.

"Zi Teng, you and I both understand what this means." Niu Jizong said coldly: "The emperor ordered Lu Song to conduct a thorough investigation of Long Jinwei's Beizhen governor. Hundreds of households in the company were assassinated. It is said that this person has a strict internal inspection and is extremely hated, but at this critical point, hehe, Gu Cheng can't get away with it..."

Wang Ziteng dismissed it, "Gu Cheng is very old, even if there are some people in the Dragon Guard, so what? How many years does he have to live? The Supreme Emperor is still there, whoever touches him will be kicked by a donkey Is it meaningful to cling to him?"

"Okay, let's not talk about this matter, let's talk about Yang Kedong's matter. The Ministry of War has become tense and asked the Ministry of Households to increase military expenditures, worrying that there will be troubles in the southwest..." Niu Jizong's eyes became a little more dignified, " Once there is chaos in Bozhou, where will the imperial court use soldiers to quell the chaos?"

Wang Ziteng came to his senses, "You mean to mobilize my Denglai soldiers?"

"Hmph, do you think the emperor and the court have blamed you for what you did in Denglai?" Niu Jizong asked back.

"Then they aren't afraid that Yang Yinglong and I will join forces?" Wang Ziteng sneered.

"You won't, as you said yourself, unless the emperor is doing great things, no one dares to go against the current under righteousness, even Prince Yizhong dares to stand out, do you dare? Playing on the side of the Qing emperor, there is no sword to stand out, you and I They are far from enough." Niu Jizong was indifferent.

Wang Ziteng was silent.

"Of course, you can also use the tactic of delaying your troops. From Denglai to the southwest, it only takes three to five months to make sense." Niu Jizong continued: "But in the southwest and the rebels, I'm afraid you can't help it." .”

"Then what if there are other changes in the process?" the prince asked slowly.

"You pin your hopes on this?" Niu Jizong asked in surprise, "Ziteng, this doesn't suit your style. Besides, what's the change? The emperor made a big move, the Jianzhou Jurchen or Mongols broke through, or the Japanese entered the army Korea?"

Wang Ziteng took a deep look at Niu Jizong, "Brother Jizong, didn't you just say that the prince seems to be too eager, I think there must be a reason for his eagerness, at least for so many years, except for a somersault on a woman, other he Haven't made any big mistakes yet?"

"What do you want to say?" Niu Jizong asked suspiciously.

"Brother Jizong, the prince is not stupid. What we can see, he can also see. The emperor's posture is becoming more and more obvious. He just doesn't want to get involved, but he still has a bit of connivance towards him. Well, some resources seem to be He is also letting him take over, otherwise why does Shui Rong let Tang Binyin go south? Tang Binyin also brought his student Han Jing, Han Jing was the role that dominated the Qingtan Academy back then, and the Han family was also a prominent gentry in Zhejiang. But it was only after the competition that Feng Ziying stole the limelight,..."

The hidden color in Wang Ziteng's tone made Niu Jizong's thoughts turn sharply, and he couldn't help but be terrified, "Zi Teng, you mean that the prince intends to...?"

"Brother Jizong, in the next two or three years, it may be an era when the mountains and rivers will change color. You and I may not be able to be alone, right?" Wang Ziteng said leisurely, "Then let's hurry up and grab what we can."
