"Here is a hundred taels of gold entrusted by King Ning, plus a pair of good jade biscuits. The officials know that adults have always liked calligraphy and painting, so they also brought a lot of daily collections for adults to enjoy, but they don't know how to do it. Does it count as sincerity?" Wei Fengguo said, pointing to a few large boxes that were faintly visible outside the door.

Wei Fengguo just said this, and Ruyi immediately screamed:

"You, you actually accepted bribes in front of my master?! This, this, you are a court historian, how, how can you do this?!"

"This little eunuch," Shen Jun turned around, with a smile on his face, "When did you see me accept these things? Bloody mouth, but it will be written in a book and ridiculed by future generations."

Ruyi covered her mouth, glared fiercely at Shen Jun and Wei Fengguo, and then looked at Wen Yining very aggrieved.

Historians are also human beings, and as human beings, we must pay attention to human relations.

Wen Yining was not surprised, but was a little annoyed that he had come here in a hurry, didn't bring anything, and didn't have any valuables around him.What Wen Yining cared more about was the word "King Ning" in Wei Fengguo's mouth. In this way, wouldn't it be an admission that he and King Ning were originally in the same party?

Then why did he help him who is King Ning's deadly enemy after all the past?

However, losing is not losing, and thinking about Wei Fengguo's affairs is not in a hurry, Wen Yining smiled and said:

"I'm not as thorough as Eunuch Wei's preparations, but I don't know what your lord likes. Can you allow me to give it to you in the future?"

Then Shen Jun laughed and bowed to Wen Yining:

"Of course the queen mother's master's things are good, but this old man dare not take his master's things, and he doesn't even like the gold, silver and jade sent by Lord Ning. I'm getting old, and I only love one thing in my life."

"what?"

"Why do you relieve your worries? Only Du Kang. A jug of wine among the flowers, drink until dawn," Shen Jun laughed, and slowly chanted a few words, "Hahaha—the old man has no other hobbies, but likes to drink a little wine. "

"The question just now is a small trial for you two. After tonight, I will ask you two three questions. If you can answer them all, I will go to the court tomorrow to speak for him."

As soon as these words came out, Wen Yining's heart tightened, and he subconsciously glanced at Wei Fengguo, but Wei Fengguo wore a confident smile and smiled harmlessly at himself.Just seeing the smile on his face, Wen Yining couldn't help but want to punch him.

Feeling uneasy again, I just hope that I will be lucky enough to see some clues from the Heshan Pavilion——

The furnishings in the Heshan Pavilion are very simple and clean. Although the old man looks a bit sloppy and comes out to answer the door with his hair tied up in a messy bun, the books are all neatly arranged, and the things on the desks not far away are very neat. , It can be seen that he is a book lover and well organized.

After watching for a while, Shen Jun shook out a wine gourd in his hand:

"A rich family doesn't need to buy fertile land, there are thousands of millet in the book; there is no need to raise a high hall, there is a golden house in the book. When you marry a wife, don't hate an unscrupulous matchmaker, there is Yan Ruyu in the book. The Queen Mother is a scholar. Your grammar is not bad, but I would like to ask you two—"

As Shen Jun said, he raised his head and took a sip of wine:

"In the eyes of both of you, who is the most beautiful person in the world?"

This question was asked abruptly, Wen Yining was caught off guard for a moment, the most beautiful person?

In terms of appearance, there are too many beauties in this world, but Wen Yining doesn't know much about them.When it comes to spiritual beauty, he feels that there are many good people in the world, but none can be called the most beautiful.

Wen Yining thought about it and found no answer, Shen Jun didn't ask in a hurry, but just drank by himself.

Wei Fengguo glanced at Wen Yining, then smiled and said:

"In the eyes of the officials, the most beautiful person in the world is naturally the Empress Dowager."

"You let go—" Ruyi wanted to jump up again to protect the lord, but was frightened by Shen Jun's cold gaze, and then hid behind Wen Yining in fear.

Wen Yining was told by Wei Fengguo face to face, he only twitched the corners of his lips slightly, pretending that he didn't hear Wei Fengguo's presumptuous words.After feeling Shen Jun's gaze, Wen Yining had no choice but to reply:

"The most beautiful person in the world... I only know that during the troubled times of the Six Kingdoms, the queen of the Lu Kingdom, Feng Xiurong, was known as the most beautiful person in the world."

After hearing the answers of the two, Shen Jun didn't say a word, didn't say right or wrong, just put down the wine gourd, and invited Wen Yining and Wei Fengguo to go upstairs again. On the second floor are the history books of each generation of the Jin Dynasty .

Shen Jiaxiu's history books are very interesting and interesting. Wen Yining had read many of them when he was a child, but the old man in front of him was really not that easy to deal with.

"Both of you gave unsatisfactory answers just now..." Shen Jun stopped and looked at the sets of books in his hand, "Then in the eyes of both of you, what is the best book in the world?"

The book in Shen Jun's hand is a set of Mencius, the way of Confucius and Mencius, and scholars are most respected.

"Confucius and Mencius are naturally the best in grammar and calligraphy." Wen Yining answered first this time.

Shen Jun smiled, but shook his head.

"The name 'Yining' of the Empress Dowager's master comes from the "Poetry": 'Ji Ji Tuo Shi, Wen Wang Yining', which emphasizes the stability of the world. The master has indeed achieved it for so many years, but Confucius and Mencius blindly paid attention to the way of saints and ignored It is not perfect if the world is overbearing and saints are hard to find."

Knowing whether he answered this question correctly, Wen Yining was a little helpless, he got two questions out of three, Wen Yining felt that he had already lost to Shen Jun.

"Book? It's not a bragging rights of a subordinate." Wei Fengguo didn't have the slightest joy of victory, he just said, "I think the best book written in the world is the book of a subordinate."

Book?

Wen Yining looked at Wei Fengguo in surprise, why didn't he know that this eunuch also wrote books?

"Hehehe——" Shen Jun smiled meaningfully, "Eunuch Wei is talking about "Mr. Chitose's Room-Secret Art" and "Secrets of the Deep Palace", right?"

what is that?When Wen Yining heard these two names, his whole body felt chills.

Wei Fengguo didn't realize it, "Why did Mr. Shen also read it?"

"Eunuch Wei's books are expensive in Luoyang in the capital, so this old man knows that," Shen Jun said, and walked a few steps forward, looking at the lights of the imperial city outside, "In that case, let me answer the old man's last question— —”

"In this world, what do you two think is the best way to govern the country?"

"The way to govern the country is to love the people."

Wen Yining answered directly.

And it was rare for Wei Fengguo not to talk nonsense, but said, "The way to govern the country must first enrich the people."

"What you said, Empress Dowager, came from Liu Xiang, and what Qiansui said came from Guanzi..." Shen Jun pondered for a while, then smiled, "So, this old man already knows it in his heart, and he will definitely give you a satisfactory answer tomorrow morning."

"But my lord..."

Wen Yining wanted to ask again, but saw Shen Jun waved his hands, as if he didn't want to talk more, and it was inconvenient to entangle him, so he just bowed respectfully to Shen Jun:

"Your Excellency, consider carefully, and only hope that Lord Shen will not hand over Jin Chao Heshan to someone who should not be handed over."

"The old man knows it well, master rest assured."

"It's getting late, ma'am, should you go back to the palace earlier?" Wei Fengguo interjected, looking at Wen Yining seriously, "The rainy season has just passed, and the sky is getting colder and dryer. It is not very good for your illness and body."

Wen Yining glanced at Wei Fengguo, didn't say much, just turned and left.

He didn't know, was his unreasonable concern too much?It was so much that he had to care about it, but in the end he was worried about gains and losses. Fear was another trap.

He was calculated by others and had to calculate for his whole life. Now, he was even more afraid of being calculated again and lost everything, even the only people around him.

Wen Yining left, Wei Fengguo and Shen Jun were sent to the gate of Heshan Pavilion until there was no one around.When only Shen Jun and Wei Fengguo were left, Shen Jun smiled:

"Master Chitose is still not leaving?"

Wei Fengguo smiled, shook his head and said, "Why, after finishing this play with me, sir, do you want to drive me away?"

At this moment, Shen Jun actually showed a sly smile like a fox:

"Hahahaha, old man, I have been acting with you kid for half a day. You should reward me anyway. I really don't understand what you young people are thinking. Obviously, what is the baby like? What's the matter?" Hidden, lied to. Aren't you afraid that he will run away with others in the future?"

Wei Fengguo smiled, and only dragged Shen Jun into the Heshan Pavilion, and opened the few boxes he brought:

"You have asked me this many times, my lord, and my answer is still the same. I love him, as long as he lives well. Whether he is with me or not is not that important."

"Besides—"

Wei Fengguo took out a food box and a jar of fine wine from under the compartment of the box, and continued:

"I'm a rootless person, what qualifications does the boss think I have to be with him?"

Hearing this, Shen Jun was taken aback for a moment, then grabbed the fine wine and food box in Wei Fengguo's hands, and when he opened the food box, he saw a roast chicken:

"Hahahahaha——you know me best, you know that old man, I love roast chicken, and good wine is my favorite!"

"Of course, I have known from before that if you want to enter Heshan Pavilion to read, you have to bring good wine to honor you, my lord." Holding roast chicken and fine wine, sitting on the ground and talking freely.

It looked like they had known each other for a long time.

"Yes, yes, any kind of favor is worse than good wine. Old man, I am addicted to alcohol." Shen Jun took a bite of the chicken enjoyment, and then said, "By the way, old man, the three questions I will ask later, do you actually know what to do?" You all know the right answer, don't you?"

Wei Fengguo nodded and said, "Naturally."

"Why don't you tell me?"

"In the eyes of my lord, the most beautiful person in the world is naturally Zhuo Wenjun who sells wine—she is the wife of a historian and a talented woman. The most important thing is that she sells wine, which is most in line with your hobbies, lord."

"Hahahaha! Yes, yes, yes!" Shen Jun clapped his hands and laughed, "You understand me!"

"And the best book - the answer is naturally no, because you are still alive, my lord. If you are alive, your book will not be finished. If your book is not finished, there will naturally be no best book in this world."

Shen Jun's eyes lit up, he nodded frantically, and almost choked on the wine:

"Ha! Cough cough cough——you boy—have an appetite for me! I love you for nothing, old man! Knowing that old man, I am most proud of my book! Then, you must be very clear about the answer to the third question! "

"Whether it is Guan Zi or Liu Xiang, the way to govern the country is to focus on the 'people'. But in your eyes, whether governing the country or treating the people, the most important thing is the human heart. The way to govern the country is to govern the heart."

"Okay, okay!" Shen Jun slapped Wei Fengguo's back hard, "I didn't misread you, it's just—"

Shen Jun gave Wei Fengguo a strange look:

"If you help him like this, aren't you afraid that King Ning will find out and take revenge on you?"

Wei Fengguo was silent for a while, smiled lightly, and said nothing.Since he had made that choice back then, he had expected such a day would come, but he did not regret it.

The lights in the Heshan Pavilion stayed on all night until the fifth watch of the second day, when Wei Fengguo and Shen Jun went to the morning court together.

The two talked, laughed, and chatted happily all the way, but no one noticed. Behind them, a Jianghu man with a huge sword came out, staring at Wei Fengguo's back coldly, and said with a cold expression. said in a tone:

"I see. It seems that I need to let the prince know that there is such a rebellious dog by his side."
