All enemies bow down to me

Ruthless, too ruthless.

Every word is pearls and every sentence is decisive.Especially the momentum and calculation hidden between the lines, there is a sense of decisiveness everywhere, but the soft running script is like drizzle moistening things, making people feel like a breeze, and they can't give him a half-point Be alert.

However, at the age of 13, even the childishness has not faded, but the vision and wrist are more comfortable than the old officials who have been in the officialdom for many years.No wonder the Ling family fell into his hands, and no wonder His Highness the Crown Prince cared so much about him.

This Tong You is definitely not something in the pool.

Looking at the young man in front of him, Zhang Zian's thoughts were like huge waves rolling over the river, and he couldn't stop at all.It wasn't until a long while before he stabilized his emotions, stretched out his hand to hold Tong You's pen, and said in a low voice: "No need to write anymore, you and I will come."

Then he took him to a quiet room at the back, and even took away the unfinished paper from Tong You's hand.

And Tong You didn't mean to refuse, he looked normal, tidied his clothes a little and left behind Zhang Zian.

It's just that in the seemingly calm eyes, there is a hint of depth flashing through without a trace.

The opportunity he had been waiting for finally came.

-------------------------

quiet room

It is not so much a quiet room as it is a small study.Yishui's small-leaf red sandalwood bookcase is lifelike and exquisitely carved, and the many ancient books stored on it are extremely rare.

On the main seat, a handsome young man was carefully looking at Tong You's paper, and there was still a half game on the table in front of him.

Tong You sized him up for a few times without any trace, and when he saw the apricot-colored uniform embroidered with dragon patterns on his body, he immediately confirmed his identity.

Prince Mu Yunxi of Da'an.It was also the real person he planned to approach through Zhang Zian this time.

Tong You thought about it carefully, the Ling family is an old family that has been passed down for generations, there must still be a lot of energy hidden in it, the centipede is dead but not stiff.Right now, I am just a minor triad leader, and even though I won several times due to beating them by surprise, I couldn't completely eradicate them.Unless he can enter the court and get the real right to speak.

Right now, the shell of the original body is only 13 years old. Even if he wins the first prize, he will be subject to age restrictions and cannot be reused immediately.Therefore, if you want to gain enough power to compete with the Ling family, the fastest way is to find a backer.

And Mu Yunxi, as the prince of Da'an, the future emperor, is Tong You's favorite partner for cooperation.

Originally, Tong You thought that after getting Zhang Zian's attention, it would take some twists and turns to achieve his goal.Unexpectedly, Mu Yunxi was actually here.It's just that Tong You vaguely felt that the young man in front of him didn't seem to match the rumored image of being gentle, gentle, generous, and virtuous, and he was even more unpredictable and elusive.

Therefore, Tong You withdrew his eyes and became more cautious in his actions.

On the other side, after Mu Yunxi finished reading the paper, he also turned his attention to Tong You, but unlike Tong You, his eyes were slightly meaningful, as if with a smile of admiration and connivance, but also as if sharp Rui Hidden can see through people's hearts at a glance.

But no matter which one is, it is not the look that people should have when they meet for the first time.However, Tong You couldn't find any details related to Mu Yunxi after searching his own and Yuanshen's memories.

This man is dangerous.Tong You frowned, feeling more and more wary.

But in Mu Yunxi's eyes, Tong You's gesture is extraordinarily cute.It's like a little fox whose fur has been blown up, even though it knows it has its sharp claws hidden, it still can't help but want to touch the fluffy fur on its tail.

But everything should be done in moderation, if you are in a hurry now, I am afraid it will be difficult to coax you back in the future.What's more, he has more important things to discuss with Tong You.

After reading Tong You's paper carefully again, Mu Yunxi's expression became much more serious.For merchants, Tong You's strategy is always two points.One is to treat the symptoms, and the other is to eliminate the root.

This is very simple to say.Scholars, farmers, businessmen, businessmen are the most despised.Therefore, if they want to grow bigger, they need a backer.But now Daan merchants mostly rely on their families to survive.What Tong You meant was that instead of letting them cling to the aristocratic family, it is better to cling to the royal family.Established the Royal Merchant.

As for the removal of the capital, it involves the aristocratic family.At present, most of the scholars in the Da'an court are from aristocratic families, and their roots are intertwined.Therefore, even if the imperial power was threatened, they did not dare to act rashly.

As the future emperor, Mu Yunxi naturally has a plan in his heart, but he is more interested in the method proposed by Tong You.

"What is restriction?" Pointing to the unfinished paper, Mu Yunxi asked.

"Monitoring." Tong You answered carefully with his choice of words: "Aristocratic families are in power because they respect Confucianism and literati are in power. In the current situation of Da'an River Qinghaiyan, the army has a reputation but no merit, so they cannot restrain each other. So According to the students, if rights can be differentiated, they can be dismantled step by step without any trace."

"How to differentiate?"

"The military discusses politics, establishes a cabinet and the royal family is pro-military. The cabinet governs, and the pro-military monitors."

Mu Yunxi thought for a moment, then nodded: "It makes sense, continue."

"Yes." Tong You responded, and continued: "The separation of powers is only on the surface. It is to weaken the real power of the aristocratic family in the court and gather the power they control into the imperial power. Therefore, the cabinet is not dominated by one person." , but choose three elders to govern together. These three elders come from three factions: one is from the family, one is from the army, and one is from the poor."

"A person in the army must be a member of the royal family. But a poor man, isolated and helpless, is in a high position, so he must find attachments. The best object of attachment is the emperor. Only by being a pure minister can he save his life. Therefore, although it seems that the aristocratic family is still in the center of power, it has actually been emptied, and the power can be completely held in the hands of the royal family, and it also prevents the children of the aristocratic family from uniting to resist and disrupt the court because of the loss of power."

"As for the royal family's pro-army that is monitored, they are also divided into two lines. One is in the light, and the other is in the dark. The light line recruits children from the aristocratic family, giving priority to the bastards and branches who cannot become officials. These people can't get ahead in the family. If you throw out an olive branch, you will definitely take the initiative. As for loyalty, as long as you come in, there are plenty of ways to seize power. In this way, you can use the word "interest" to disintegrate the internal core of the family."

"As for the dark sect, it is necessary to select people from the army. They have limited rights and only obey the emperor's orders. They have the same task, which is to monitor the loyalty of the Ming sect and the cabinet. In this way, the Ming sect controls the cabinet, and the secret sect monitors the Ming sect's cabinet. And the existence of the cabinet also has the right to impeach the dark system. This kind of interlocking will not disturb the government, but also clean up the government, and at the same time, it can subtly divide the family. By then, it will be broken one by one. It's very easy. The above is the humble opinion of the students, it is difficult to be elegant, and I hope His Highness the Crown Prince will forgive me."

Quietly.

As Tong You finished speaking, everyone in the quiet room stared at Tong You with amazed eyes except Mu Yunxi.

Although Zhang Zian had already read Tong You's papers in Piyong Hall, but after hearing the complete strategy, he only had the word "admiration" in his heart.As for the servant who was serving the prince, he was also dumbfounded.Although there are many talented people around the prince, he has never seen someone so evil at Tong You's age.

Not caring about the reaction of the two, Tong You raised his head and met Mu Yunxi's burning eyes.

But Mu Yunxi just took a sip of tea quietly, and said meaningfully: "Ming Qing, how about playing chess with Gu?"

Tong You was taken aback for a moment, and then immediately understood what he meant.Then he curled his lips into a smile, straightened his clothes and sat opposite Mu Yunxi, picked up the white piece, and unceremoniously dropped it first.

And Mu Yunxi also had a little more smile in his eyes, and slowly poured a cup of tea for Tong You himself.

Seeing this situation, Zhang Zian and the valet retreated out tactfully.They all understand that if the rest is left, they are not qualified to sit in on it.As for Tong You, after today, I am afraid that he will become the confidant of His Royal Highness and truly enter the circle of power.

And right now, he is only 13 years old.

This is the real pride of heaven, and Tong You must have a place among the powerful ministers of Da'an in the future!

----------------------------

Piyong Hall

It has been more than an hour since Zhang Zian took Tong You away, and now the time has come, and all the students handed over the strategies and theories they had made to Jijiu.However, Tong You never came back.

Due to the gloomy look on Zhang Zian's face when he left, everyone speculated whether Tong You wrote some rebellious and idiotic words that made the crown prince angry.

"Has there been such a situation before?" A supervisor cautiously asked the companion next to him.

"I've never heard of it, maybe something went wrong, that's why..." The companion shook his head, his tone was uncertain, but the disgust and schadenfreude in the unfinished words were clearly audible.

They all knew in their hearts that Tong You was completely finished this time.Originally born in a poor family, then he offended the Ling family, and now he is disliked by the prince and the prince on this occasion, not to mention whether he will have a chance to make his mark in the future, I am afraid that he will not be able to survive in Shangjing.

As for Ling Jie at the side, even though he didn't participate in their discussion, he also guessed the same in his heart.And there is also a sense of excitement of revenge.

After forbearance for a long time, he finally waited until Tong You lost power, and this loss of power was not temporary, but a desperate situation with both future and future cut off.

Really good!

Involuntarily pinching the pen tightly in his hand, Ling Jie felt his blood boil at this moment, he couldn't even wait to see Tong You's embarrassing and humiliating gesture.

But at this moment, a piece of news suddenly interrupted his thoughts.

Another student who accompanied Zhang Zian before came in and spread the word, saying that after seeing the test papers of all the people, Zhang Zian, the crown prince, planned to accept him as a disciple because of the amazing talent of one of them.The name will be made public at a later date.

The atmosphere in Piyong Hall suddenly became eager, and the eyes of all the students also showed endless longing in unison.

Zhang Zian is the crown prince of the current dynasty, if he can be accepted as a disciple, regardless of whether he can reach the sky in one step, the name of the future emperor's classmate alone is enough to surpass everyone.

All of a sudden, there was a lot of discussion, and everyone guessed who was the lucky one.But the disciple who passed on the message kept his mouth shut, and only whispered a few words to Fan Jiqing.

Fan Jiqing was also very surprised when he heard it, and even glanced at Ling Jie unobtrusively, but his eyes were a little indescribable, as if he was grateful but also sighed.

At the same time, a few words blurred out from the student's mouth also attracted the attention of all students.Although they couldn't hear them clearly, the words that were highly directional made them focus on Ling Jie.

But at this moment, Ling Jie's mind was also extremely active.

He came here today because of Zhang Zian.And before coming, the whole house has already been taken care of properly.

Not only did he carefully understand Zhang Zian's hobbies and habits, but he even reviewed the content of his lectures repeatedly.As for the policy theory related to merchants, it was finally finalized after repeated scrutiny, polishing and modification by several talented Qing Ke, and handed over to Ling Jie to recite it, so as to become a blockbuster.

Therefore, Ling Jie firmly believed that if there was only one person in Piyong Hall who could amaze Zhang Zian, it must be him, Ling Jie.As for the expelled Tong You, this time he can only become a homeless dog and suffer a crushing defeat.

However, although he was sure in his heart, he still pretended to be deep on his face.

"Brother Ling is going to win the Toad Palace this time." Seeing this situation, everyone thought that Zhang Zian's favorite disciple must be Ling Jie, and they all moved closer to congratulate him in advance.

Ling Jie also pretended to be humble, and rejected one after another: "Don't dare, I'm just a beginner, and my conduct is not as good as your seniors. Mr. Zhang may be interested in someone else."

Outside the door, Zhang Zian looked at the scene inside, and his face involuntarily became a little ugly.Ling Jie's villainous appearance that he couldn't hide made him feel extremely nauseous.

In addition, seeing Tong You's calm and unfazed appearance by his side, I feel more and more ashamed and angry that I had no eyes at first, and misunderstood the rumor that I almost mistaked pearls for fish eyes.

Barely suppressing his emotions, Zhang Zian pushed the palace door open and walked in quickly.

The originally noisy hall suddenly became quiet, and everyone's eyes were firmly focused on Zhang Zian.

But afterward, their eyes became subtle, and Ling Jie also had a bad premonition in his heart.Because it was Tong You who was forcibly taken away before Zhang Zian entered the door.

How is this going?Everyone is full of doubts.

But Zhang Zian took the initiative to explain: "Mingqing is very talented, and I like him quite a lot, so Yi Lao sells the old and forces him to be my disciple."

Piyong Hall fell silent for an instant, and the students all opened their mouths, their faces full of surprise.

What is Zhang Zian's identity, he wants to accept Tong You as a disciple, but he still threatens and lures him.Even self-effacing words are enough to shock everyone.What's more, just now Ling Jie's response has already amazed them, if Tong You is better than Ling Jie, what kind of talent will it be?

For a moment, the eyes of everyone looking at Ling Jie were a little bit wrong, and those who had fawned on him before showed a little annoyance.

As for Ling Jie at the side, his face had already turned red.He never expected that after Tong You was angered and kicked out of the Imperial Prison, he would be able to stand up and benefit directly from Zhang Zian.

Impossible, absolutely impossible!

Ling Jie's eyes were red, and his fingers were firmly pinching the corner of the table, his face full of disbelief.

In his opinion, although Tong You has some dexterity, he is just a small three-yuan case, not a Wenqu star, so there is no reason why he has lost many times.

But it just seems like a broken door, as long as you meet, no matter how well prepared you are before and how foolproof your calculations are, you will be defeated in the end.

This is not fair, there must be something tricky in it, he wants to find this loophole!Ling Jie stared at Tong You firmly, trying to see flaws in him.

However, facing Ling Jie who was about to go crazy, Tong You was still very indifferent, there was not even a trace of irony in his quiet eyes.However, such calmness and composure brought out Ling Jie's impetuousness and vanity even more.

Ling Jie's body kept trembling, just now everyone's flattery and amazement were like slaps hard on the face.He was unwilling and unable to bear it, and his face was full of jealousy and resentment.

Standing up from his seat, Ling Jie couldn't help shouting: "I don't accept it! Ling Mingqing hasn't even finished the paper, why is he qualified to be above everyone else?"

Zhang Zian didn't open his mouth to argue, but ordered the disciple beside him to read Tong You's paper directly.

"It is said that China is a market for the people of the world to gather the goods of the world, trade and return, and everyone gets what they want. However, gold is a merchant, and it is good for profit, and it is widely harvested from all over the world. , every time I stick to my own teeth, I plan day and night, and I am always suffering from insufficient..."

But with just a few words, all kinds of merchants in Da'an were put on paper, and everyone was dumbfounded instantly.This kind of splendor of Banxiang and Songyan is by no means comparable to their cleverness.As for Ling Jie, he couldn't even say a complete sentence.

This is absolute crushing.What is the difference between clouds and mud, and what is a high mountain looking up, at this moment, Ling Jie felt it thoroughly.He collapsed on the seat so weak that he couldn't move a single finger.

Seeing this, Zhang Zian directly ordered people to expel him from the Piyong Hall, and taught the rest of the people in a disgusted tone: "A sage is self-effacing and needs to examine himself three times, and as a student, he must abide by it. Our country's Zijian cannot allow people to be so frivolous! "

This is to directly expel Ling Jie from the Imperial College and never hire him.After hearing this, Ling Jie, who was pulled out of the hall, suddenly turned pale, and even his originally unwilling eyes became desperate.But everything is done, and there is no room for change.

He could almost foresee a future in which he would be squeezed out by all the students and the road to imperial examinations would be completely cut off.He can also imagine how after today, the people in Beijing will use his contemptuous and disdainful tone to treat his failure as a pastime for after-dinner conversation.

However, it was too late.

And Tong You looked at his embarrassed appearance with cold eyes, without a trace of disturbance on his face.Right now, what he took away was Ling Jie's future.In the future, he will subvert the entire Ling family to pay for the lives of hundreds of people who died in vain in the original branch.

Sometimes, it's not that you don't report, it's not the time.

Withdrawing his thoughts, Tong You saw that Zhang Zian had explained the matter of Piyong Hall clearly, and then he took the lead in saying goodbye.Being accepted as a student of the prince's Taifu is just a superficial cover. The real backer behind him now is the current prince Mu Yunxi.

Casually touching the jade pendant in his sleeve, Tong You's lips curled into a playful smile.

This is the first-class emperor Fei, with a nine-dragon ring and green jade, and a very noble "Yun" is carved in the middle with a hollow seal.

-----------------------

After the incident of Ling Jie being sent home broke out, the Ling family, which had improved somewhat, was hit hard again.However, this time, they could only bear it, and they didn't even dare to think of making trouble for Tong You.

Right now, Tong You's identity is not what it used to be. As a classmate of the prince, under the protection of the prince's tutor, how can they allow them to maliciously speculate and slander?

Old Madam Ling vomited blood again, which made Ling's father feel uneasy.

But what surprised them was that Tong You had completely quieted down since he became a teacher, studying at Zhang Zian's house every day, as if he had taken the initiative to give the Ling family a little room to breathe.However, they didn't dare to relax because of this. Instead, they became more and more afraid, as if a sharp knife was hanging on the beam. If they didn't pay attention, they would lose their lives.

At the same time, another remarkable event happened in Shangjing.

In the most chaotic place on the canal dock, a tall building suddenly rose on the ground.This building was built on the former site of the old palace, and before it opened, a plaque was exposed and written to Fuyun Building.

The construction of this building is huge, and the owner behind it is also extremely mysterious, but it still stands mysteriously in this wharf where the three religions are rampant.And no one dared to provoke him, because the bodies of all the tempters were sent back to the principal's room the next day.

People do not know it.

Three months passed in a blink of an eye, and this magical building was quickly completed, and news was released that it will open today.

But just the day before the opening, all merchants in Shangjing, regardless of their business size, received letters from Fuyunlou.Originally, they agreed to jointly boycott, but the seal under the credible letter immediately dispelled this stupid idea.

Because it is the prince's private seal, implying: those who do not, will be punished in the name of contempt for the royal family.

At the beginning, these merchants were under pressure and had to join in.But after entering, they were all taken aback, and secretly rejoiced that they did not miss the opportunity.

It turned out that what Fuyun Building sells is not cakes and tea, but price information from various places.This information is categorized and placed in different kits.The price difference before and after fluctuates only in 2 days, and the military pigeons send letters to each other.

Time is the biggest business opportunity.

For Da'an at present, this is already a shockingly large amount of money.Moreover, not only Shangjing, the existence of Fuyunlou also benefited those businessmen who went to Beijing from other places.

Those foreign businessmen who pull a load of local goods are often easily tricked into lowering the price.With this kind of quotation, you can know what you are talking about, and you will be more measured when talking about prices.As for those small merchants, they can also use price fluctuations to find the most suitable business opportunities for them.

The important thing is that not only the merchants in the capital will trade here, but also the royal family and the army.The army is a big household of grain, grass, cotton and hemp.Although the royal family does not have much demand, their silk embroidered ceramic vessels can be used by the supreme royal family. This is something that ancestors have worked hard for generations.

And not only in these aspects, the biggest temptation of Fuyun Building comes from the canal.

The Da'an Canal can only be used by military ships, but the Fuyun Tower has a way to allow goods to be transported from the canal to Beijing through military ships.It directly reduces the delay on the journey.

In just a few days, Fuyun Building became famous.Even those big merchants attached to the family were also moved.

Upstairs in Fuyun, Tong You practiced calligraphy while listening to his subordinate's report.After explaining a few words briefly, he ordered the subordinate to go down and continue to ponder his thoughts.

The room returned to calm, but after a while, there was the sound of steady footsteps coming from behind Tong You.

The author has something to say: Taizhi: Is the daughter-in-law so cute and cute? (??·???)

It has been completed. It is said that Meow has been addicted to the glory of the king recently and can't extricate himself. Even if he goes to work, he has to play two rounds, but it is really lonely to play alone, so I persuaded Mr. Qian to play together.
