Prince Consort

Liu Shenxing took over the position of Master Jiu.

No matter how capable Jiuye is, he is still a servant, and others always look at him with contempt.Liu Shenxing is a man of fame and fame, but he would be willing to be Jiu Ye's "successor". Many people laughed at him: The Liu family really fell into a slump.

Liu Sansi is a supporter of Yao Dingyan and a "veteran" with a considerable status in the "New Party".At the beginning when I heard that Liu Shenxing and Xie Zean were going to Liangzhou, I didn't like it, but this time Liu Shenxing was so nonsense, Liu Sansi couldn't sit still anymore, and went directly to the door and scolded Liu Shenxing.

Liu Shenxing wiped the droplets off his face, and said calmly, "Liu Sansi, if you can choose sides, why can't I?"

Liu Sansi scolded: "You have disgraced the Liu family!"

Liu Shenxing said: "The face of the Liu family was lost when our whole family was exiled. Where did the face come from? We have to rely on our own ability to support it. Just think about what our family was like ten years ago. What is the situation of our family now? In the past, our family was defeated because the honor and disgrace were all tied to other people." He looked at Liu Sansi, "It is absolutely impossible for the Liu family to turn around just by being someone else's dog."

Liu Sansi's face was flushed red, and his handsome features were almost distorted, like a frog with puffed cheeks: "Who do you call a dog? Who will be someone else's dog? You will be someone else's dog." !"

Liu Shenxing said: "Anyone can show their prestige." He stared at Liu Sansi, "Now what else can you do besides cheering for Yao Dingyan?"

Liu Sansi choked.

Liu Shenxing said: "Sanlang used to be Yao Dingyan's apprentice, and Yao Dingyan has always been very close to him. Now because Sanlang didn't support his proposition, he mercilessly pushed Sanlang to the forefront. Such a kind-hearted person, Do you really believe in what he can do? He doesn't have much confidence in himself, he doesn't dare to trust people like Xie Jiyu and Saburo—so he is left with dogs like you who no longer have any thoughts of their own and only know how to obey orders. Guys like you, to put it bluntly, are a bunch of rabble—"

Liu Sansi slapped Liu Shenxing hard.

Liu Shenxing didn't expect Liu Sansi to make a move, before he had time to dodge, five fingerprints soon appeared on his face.He closed his eyes: "That's all I said, it's up to you whether you listen or not."

Liu Sansi looked at her slightly trembling hands.

Liu Shenxing's younger brother has never been very outstanding, but they had a very good relationship when they were young, they often slept together and had endless conversations every night.Later, he had more and more friends, and he heard more and more flattery. Of course, the position of this somewhat silent and dull brother in his heart became smaller and smaller.

Later, the Liu family was exiled to Lingnan, and he was completely devastated. It was only because of this younger brother who came forward to deal with those mountain people that his life became more comfortable.But that kind of comfort is still very different from the previous ten or 20 years of pampering and pampering, and he is almost going crazy.

He dreamed of returning to the capital.

In those years, Liu Shenxing had been planning for him.

Fight for him to return to Beijing.

When Liu Sansi was approached by Yao Dingyan, he wanted to introduce his younger brother to Yao Dingyan, but he swallowed the words in his throat.During the time in Lingnan, he realized that he was not the most outstanding member of the Liu family, but Liu Shenxing, the younger brother.If Liu Shenxing is introduced, his hard-won chance to stand up will be gone...

Liu Sansi knew that he was despicable, and he was actually jealous and afraid of his younger brother, but he couldn't help it, he was just such a person.

Liu Sansi looked at Liu Shenxing, her lips moved and moved, but she couldn't say a word.

Liu Shenxing said: "Let's go if you have nothing to do, don't stay here, wait for me to slap you back?"

Liu Sansi felt a burning pain in her palm.

Liu Sansi had to admit that he slapped him because Liu Shenxing hit his heart.Doing things under Yao Dingyan is really like being a dog. You can only listen to Yao Dingyan for everything, and you can't have your own ideas.He did many things according to Yao Dingyan's instructions and became the "backbone" of the "New Party", but he still seemed to be stepping on cotton, with no sense of steadfastness.

Anyone can do such a thing.

If someone who is more obedient and able to cater to Yao Dingyan's wishes appears, then Yao Dingyan will give up on him without hesitation.It can even be said that if something goes wrong with the new law in the future, Yao Dingyan can push him out as a scapegoat.

Liu Shenxing was so right, it made him flustered.

Liu Sansi said: "I'm sorry, be careful, I didn't mean it, I'm sorry."

Liu Shenxing was slightly startled, took a step back, and closed his eyes: "Well, let's go back."

Liu Sansi stepped forward and took Liu Shenxing's hand: "What do you think I should do? Shenxing, I really don't know what to do."

Liu Shenxing didn't expect Liu Sansi to make such a move. He froze for a moment, and then slowly said, "Brother, you have always been the best in the family—just like Xie Jiyu. As long as you bring out your true talents, even Being buried is also temporary. Compared with Yao Dingyan, Xie Jiyu is the person you should be close to. At the beginning, Xie Jiyu changed his false identity and reported your name, and he didn't even separate himself from you at that juncture. You will never meet such a friend in your life. several."

Liu Sansi's expression changed again and again.

He said: "I have gone to show off in front of him several times, do you think he will still be my friend?"

Liu Shenxing said: "If you don't try, how will you know." He half-opened his eyes and looked at Liu Sansi, "Their family is different from other people."

Liu Sansi said, "I'll think about it when I go back."

Liu Shenxing watched Liu Sansi leave and sighed.

As soon as Xie Ze'an walked in, he saw Liu Shenxing sitting there with half of his face swollen and gloomy.

Xie Ze'an was taken aback: "Brother Liu, what's wrong?"

Liu Shenxing said: "It's okay, my brother is here." He turned his eyes, "I persuaded him a few words."

Xie Ze'an said, "Then you got slapped?"

Liu Shenxing was annoyed: "You can pretend you didn't see it."

Xie Ze'an asked: "Is persuasion effective?"

Liu Shenxing said: "I just finished persuading him, how do I know if it's effective or not?" He paused slightly, "He was very good to me when I was young, so I couldn't help persuading him even though I knew what kind of person he was."

Xie Zean sat down and listened to Liu Shenxing quietly.

Liu Shenxing continued: "You, Mr. Yao, are not very easy to get along with. You have suffered a loss. You should understand this better. If my brother is determined to join the new party ship, there will be no good in the future. Eat the fruit. We are brothers after all, I can't just watch him go to death."

Xie Ze'an said, "How do you know that it must be a dead end." He paused, and asked, "What if Mr. Yao succeeds?"

Liu Shenxing said: "He will definitely not be able to do it."

Xie Zean frowned.

Xie Ze'an thought that he did not have the lofty ambitions of Yao Dingyan.It is precisely because I can't do it myself that I admire people like Yao Dingyan.

Even Zhao Ying, Xu Juncheng and Xie Jiyu are very optimistic about Yao Dingyan.

Xie Ze'an said, "Brother Liu, why are you so sure?"

Liu Shenxing said: "Things are done by people." He tapped on the edge of the table, "If you look at the people he uses, you will understand why I say that. Those people are very obedient—as long as they have the ability No one can be so obedient." He sneered, "How detached and noble do you expect them to be? They are obedient just because they want to climb up to your backer, Mr. Yao. Once they have the opportunity in the future , they will be more difficult to control than the current disobedient people. Last time when you, Mr. Yao, proposed to set up the third division, didn’t they dance more happily than anyone else?”

Xie Ze'an is not a stupid person, Liu Shenxing has made his words so clear, how could he not understand?

Xie Ze'an said, "What Brother Liu said is true."

Liu Shenxing said: "It's not that you can't see these things clearly, it's just that you and your Mr. Yao are mentoring, and many things are taught by you, Mr. Yao, which will inevitably affect your judgment."

Xie Zean nodded.

The so-called bystanders are clear and the authorities are confused, is referring to this situation.

Yao Dingyan's reform is ready, and there is very little time to prepare.

Yao Dingyan's roots lie in Shilin and poor families, which is also the foundation that civil servants must strive for.If Xie Ze'an wants to have greater influence, Shilin's favorability must be obtained.In the past, he had no ambitions. He invented pinyin, made paper, improved printing techniques, and even produced dictionaries and newspapers. It took a little effort to build up his reputation.

Xie Ze'an is going to start from two aspects.

On the one hand, it is elementary school, as the name suggests, it is used for enlightenment.It's okay to fool adults, but it's okay to fool children, not to mention that he's still standing on the shoulders of giants.But the giant's shoulders are not easy to stand on. Like the "Three Character Classics" and "Di Zi Gui" that he can remember, there are many allusions that have never happened in this era. It is a big project to move them out and use them, even if they don't overhaul , He also had to make up the story behind each sentence word by word.

This is a big project!

On the other hand, he will annotate one or two scriptures and histories.

No matter what Xie Zean said, he was born as a number one scholar, and he had two famous teachers, Xu Juncheng and Yao Dingyan, hand in hand, and he thought he had a good grasp of classics and history.Coupled with the fact that he still has the "shoulders of giants", it is not difficult to come up with some unexpected insights.

More importantly, he wants to introduce punctuation marks with the help of these elementary books and annotations.

When he took out the pinyin at the beginning, he was careful and didn't take out the punctuation marks. At least he saved some "capital" for himself.

With so many things in hand, it was much easier for Xie Zean to create momentum.Aren’t there still newspapers? At that time, the more controversial views will be serialized in the newspapers, and some great Confucian scholars and scholars will be invited to discuss them together.

Although it is shameless to put gold on his face so suddenly, but he is not very shameless in the first place.

At the beginning, he was also an expert in "success" who had published a large number of best-selling books. How popular the books are!In this era where there is no concept of marketing at all, if he has no face and doesn't stand up, he can simply crush all aspects.

Xie Ze'an returned to the study, and enthusiastically sorted out most of the manuscripts he had written.

Immediately, I want to write a book and make a name for myself, which will set off a bloody storm in the literary world. It's quite cool to think about it!

The author has something to say: Xiao Xie: So cool!

Fat Paper looked resentful: What about me?

Xiao Xie (ignoring the fat paper): I want to have fun!So cool!

Fat Paper couldn't bear it anymore and tied Xiao Xie up oxx, and said, "You can repeat what you just said."

Xiao Xie: ...

Fuck it, it's him, it's him, it's him!He is the one who is even more shameless!
