I was a gentleman in ancient times

Qin Zhan smiled wryly, and chose to speak out about himself, "Although I am a prince, I am worse than ordinary common people. At least common people can still enjoy father's kindness, son's filial piety, and family warmth. But my mother is just a humble Diva, I was doomed to be an outcast from birth."

He didn't want to talk about his life experience, so he said after a few words: "The land of Western Qin is really a barren land. To the west are barbarians and Rong people. They often invade the frontiers and rob them. The people in the west are miserable It’s unbearable. And the east is surrounded by powerful enemies such as the Lou Kingdom and the You Kingdom.”

"At the age of seven, Lou State invaded Western Qin, and Western Qin was defeated, so they could only send envoys to Bei State to ask for help. Fortunately, Bei State intervened, Lou State agreed to withdraw troops, and Western Qin finally gave up five cities. This war."

Wei Su nodded. He now has a little understanding of the current situation outside. After the former dynasty fell apart, it formed a series of small kingdoms.

For hundreds of years, there have been constant disputes among the vassal states, large and small, and the strong preyed on the weak. This situation Qin Zhan said is common.

Qin Zhan continued: "In order to express his gratitude to Bei, Xiqin paid a lot of money to clothe silk. And my abandoned son was also used as a tool, and was sent to Bei as a hostage."

Wei Su silently looked at Qin Zhan with a trace of sympathy. A seven or eight-year-old child should have grown up under the care of his parents, but he took up his own responsibilities prematurely.Leaving home at such a young age, and going to the enemy country alone as a hostage, if one is not good, I am afraid that even my life will be lost.Qin Zhan said that he was an abandoned child, and he was indeed abandoned early.

Qin Zhan said indifferently: "After more than ten years of hard work, I finally returned to West Qin safely, but within half a year, Yingyang Academy had to send a prince to study again. The original candidate was the little prince of West Qin, only because Mrs. Wan I don't want my youngest son to be far away, so I asked me to study in Yingyang Academy instead of the little prince."

"Don't be sad." Wei Su comforted: "Heaven will send a great mission to the people. You must first work hard on your mind, work your muscles and bones, and starve your body. You must face the reality bravely, even if you did not have the love of your loved ones before." , but as you look forward, in the not-too-distant future, you will have someone who loves and cherishes you, and someone who wants to protect you."

Qin Zhan lowered his eyes to hide the disdain in his eyes, relatives?what is that?When he begged bitterly not to send him away, his father coldly threw him away, and he already knew that he was alone and could only rely on himself for everything.

"I won't be sad, I just have resentment in my heart." Qin Zhan's tone was cold and indifferent.

Wei Su didn't know what to say, so he could only remain silent.

"It's just that I was born as a West Qin person, and I will eventually go back. The West Qin people are too miserable, surrounded by powerful enemies outside, and oppressed by nobles wantonly inside. Today's West Qin is no longer what it was more than a hundred years ago, and its national strength is growing day by day. It is a recession, and the people are in dire straits. Unfortunately, I can only watch helplessly but there is nothing I can do." Qin Zhan sighed.

He returned to West Qin from Bei State, and he saw people displaced and starved to death along the way. Such a scene is really unbelievable.At that time, he was wondering if there was any way to change the status quo.

After listening to Wei Su's words just now, this idea resurfaced again, and then I wanted to ask Wei Su.

"Change cannot be achieved overnight. It is closely related to the king's ruling philosophy. If the king is capable and cares about the people, and if he takes appropriate measures to benefit the people, he will naturally be able to make changes." Wei Su said after deliberation.

Qin Zhan shook his head with a wry smile, "Where is it so easy?"

At present, in the royal court, the father only favors Mrs. Wan, and he is not even willing to manage the court affairs.And Mrs. Wan is of course thinking about her son, she only whispers in the ears of the father, the father has soft ears, and loves the house and the bird, so she naturally loves the little prince very much.This has already threatened the position of the eldest prince. In order to stabilize his position, he had to do everything possible to win over the ministers of the DPRK and China.

In the king's court, the dignitaries are intriguing, they only care about their own interests, and how can they care about the lives of the common people?

Wei Su shook the wine glass lightly in his hand, a little dizzy, seeing nothing very clearly.Qin Zhan spoke intermittently, and he listened quietly.There was a peaceful and warm atmosphere between the two of them. The sunlight was projected through the window lattice, and spots of mottled jumps lingered on the two of them, forming a beautiful picture scroll.

"Then you just watch? If I had no conditions, I would create conditions. Facing difficulties, striving to be the best. For my own ideals, strive to change the world." Wei Su narrowed his eyes slightly, and blurted out.

"Oh?" The gleam in Qin Zhan's eyes flashed away.Immediately, a trace of vigilance rose, "What do you mean?"

Wei Su shook his head, and regretted the words as soon as he uttered them, "I'm a bit too drunk to talk nonsense, so don't pay attention."

How could Qin Zhan believe this?At first he thought that Wei Su knew his secret, so he became very vigilant, but then he realized, how could Wei Su know about him?

Qin Zhan stood up, came to Wei Su, and bowed deeply, "Mr. Wei, please teach me."

Wei Su had a headache, he didn't want to cause trouble, he already regretted what he said just now.It was even worse after seeing the vigilance in Qin Zhan's eyes. No matter how harmless a prince may look, he should have a lot of insight and scheming.It was precisely because of this that he wished he could take back what he had said, that drinking was a mistake, and when his head got hot, the trouble would come out of his mouth.

Wei Su waved his hand, and said perfunctorily, "I have nothing to teach you. It's all about drinking. Haha, how can you believe drinking? Get up quickly, what's the point of this?"

Qin Zhan was unmoved, and insisted: "Please teach me."

"..." Wei Su wanted to hammer the table, why is this man so obstinate?What can I teach you?ah?Teach you to rebel against your father?This is not appropriate ah hey!

Qin Zhan thought that if Wei Su didn't agree, he would not be determined. Wei Su looked around, and there were servants watching. It was not an option to go on like this.

He had no choice but to say: "Get up first, sit down and talk slowly. Of course, we just discuss our respective views, and it may not be able to help you."

The corners of Qin Zhan's mouth curled up slightly. This man was soft-hearted. He had already seen Wei Su's temperament from Wei Su's way of dealing with people. He used this trick, and it really worked.

Qin Zhan straightened up and waved his hands to make the servants retreat, leaving only himself and Wei Su.

Sitting down again, Wei Sucai said: "What you say here, don't pass it on to the ears of a third person."

Seeing that Qin Zhan nodded yes, Wei Su felt relieved, "Tell me, which aspect do you want to ask for advice? State affairs, family affairs, world affairs? Of course, it's just a discussion. I can choose not to answer sensitive questions. "

Qin Zhan no longer has anything to hide at this time. He has ambitions and aspirations, but he is alone and alone, and it is difficult to make progress.If Wei Su really has a good idea, maybe it can clear the fog in front of him.So he was willing to reveal his hidden thoughts in front of this person, no matter what, he had to give it a try.

Although it was a helpless move for him to do so, he just believed in Wei Su and believed that Wei Su could help him.

Because in Xun Qi's school exam just now, he saw Wei Su's truly shining side.He is calm and analytical, with a long-term vision and extraordinary insight.With just a few words, you can analyze the essence of things thoroughly, and easily solve the problems that have been troubling everyone for a long time.How many people in this world can do it?At least not in the ones he'd seen.

Even if he went to the doctor in a hurry, Qin Zhan saw a glimmer of hope, no matter how bad it was, it was better than being mediocre and running around like a headless chicken.

"Although I am a prince, I have been away from home since I was a child. I have no foundation in the royal court. After returning to the royal court for more than half a year, I can't do anything. The royal court I saw was rotten and decayed long ago." Qin Zhan smiled wryly. , paused before saying: "So, if I want to change the status quo, I just think about it. After all, I don't have any capital now."

"How can you have no capital? Your identity is a very good capital." Wei Su changed his sitting position and rubbed his legs that were numb from kneeling.

"I would like to hear the details." Qin Zhan looked solemn.

"Hey, you are a prince, isn't that right? At least in terms of status, you are already at the top, a capital that ordinary people will never be able to touch. It is not impossible for you to fight for that position."

Qin Zhan sat up straight and listened carefully.

Wei Su smiled slightly, "It doesn't matter that you are not taken seriously in the royal family, then from now on, you should first create your perfect persona, which will subtly influence others' perception of you."

"Personal design?" Qin Zhan didn't understand.

"For example, being weak, pitiful and harmless, respecting the elders, benevolence and benevolence, these beautiful sides are displayed in front of others, so that when they think of you, they will think of these labels." Wei Su thought for a while and concluded.

"But, thousands of miles away, how can they see these things?" What Wei Su said is very simple, but he is not in the palace, even if he does these things, it is useless.

"As long as you want to do it, there is nothing you can't do." Wei Su chuckled, propped his head on his hand and said, "For example, if you have nothing to do on weekdays, you can write more letters to greet your father and grandmother, and say something interesting in the letter, by the way. It sells badly. If you have any novel gadgets, they don’t need to be expensive. You can send them in advance. Don’t be embarrassed, to put it bluntly, you are a junior, and you are a filial piety in the palace of intrigue and power struggle. There is only one. As time goes by, they will not forget you, and may even miss you."

"Is... is this feasible?" Qin Zhan was a little puzzled, but he didn't expect it to be so simple.

"It's like this anyway, how will you know the result if you don't try? No matter how bad it is, it can't be worse than it is now, right?"

What Wei Su said made sense, Qin Zhan nodded, "Okay, I will do as you said."

Qin Zhan could listen to his words, and Wei Su was very satisfied, "Of course, you have to cultivate people who can really use it yourself, and learn more skills to control others, so that you can use it in the future."

He had thought of this a long time ago, nodded, and said distressedly: "I know, I have already planned it, but talents are rare, so far, there are really too few people who need them."

Wei Su didn't take it seriously, and waved his hands and said, "Everyone has their own advantages and disadvantages. What you have to do is to recognize people and arrange them in suitable positions."

Qin Zhan suddenly became enlightened as if enlightened, and saluted happily, "So that's it, Zhan has been taught, thank you, Mr. Wei Lang."

"You're welcome, I'm just talking casually, it's really up to you how to act." Wei Su's head was in a mess, drunk, and he felt a little uncomfortable.

He glanced at the sky, stood up unsteadily, "Okay, it's getting late, let's stop here today, and I have to go back. Anyway, we live nearby, so we can talk about it later if you have any questions. Thank you for today." I will invite you again next time."

Wei Su's cheeks were flushed, drunk, Qin Zhan got up quickly, went to help him, "I'll take you back."

"No need." Wei Su waved his hand to refuse, but his drunken body was limp and powerless.

Qin Zhan's hand was already supporting him, and with a little force, Wei Su leaned against him.

Wei Su frowned slightly, this man may not look big, but his strength is not small.But he didn't refuse again, he insisted on sending it, and he saved his energy, anyway, it was just next door, just a few steps away.Simply leaning on Qin Zhan like this.

Wei Su's aura lingered on Qin Zhan's pen, making Qin Zhan a little at a loss. No one had ever been so close to him since he was a child.

Obviously he could ask his servants to send Wei Su back, but for some reason, he unconsciously followed him.

His hands tightened unconsciously. Wei Su felt uncomfortable and frowned slightly. He hastily loosened his hands a little to divert his attention, and said in a hoarse voice, "Be careful of the stairs."
