The storm of breaking the flail, the sky of the sky

Compared with King Gong and Qi Qi, Le Jun is much more casual with Wei Shenzhi, even if it takes up his whole day, he won't feel guilty.

However, the two chatted a few words, and finally the topic turned to what Le Jun had heard.

"You know the recent rumors, right?" Le Jun was referring to Gong Qi's intention to mobilize officials, and Wei Shenzhi might be replaced by Li Mingzhe.

Wei Shenzhi thought for a while, "Which one are you talking about?"

"Are there still many rumors?" Le Jun was really surprised.

"Ah... that's right," Wei Shenzhi nodded, "Rumors were flying all over the sky some time ago, but they have been suppressed by Mr. Taifu a lot."

"What rumors?"

Wei Shenzhi took a sip of the tea in his cup and was silent for a long time before speaking. It seems that even he needs a lot of psychological construction to tell the rumor, "...the most influential one is probably the Ming Xi Dynasty's There are rumors that the ruling society will be killed within ten years."

Le Jun couldn't help holding his breath.

His first reaction was disbelief.

Qiao country is very stable now, the seeds borrowed from Cai country and Zuo country have been returned long ago, and a trade has been established with Dai country, specializing in exporting grain to that northern cold land, and occasionally supporting other countries.

It’s hard to say how rich it is. After all, the foundation was too poor before. Building a prosperous and powerful country from nothing will not work overnight, but at least it has improved. Many refugees have returned to their home countries. Qiaoguo can at least Let them all have enough to eat; the roads around the country are smooth and the transportation industry is developed, and there are many credits to Lejun; merchants who were reluctant to come to Qiaoguo before are gradually willing to come, especially foreign business has improved greatly .

Therefore, he had never heard of this rumor at all, probably because Yan Qi deliberately controlled the news from spreading outside the government.

"I don't know who first mentioned it. When we found out, it was already spreading. Even if we want to find the original source, it is very difficult... But this rumor has been suppressed by Mr. Taifu, and the rumor that came out later is the court. The church is facing major disturbances, and there may be news that a group of officials will be affected."

This is also unavoidable. To dare to bring up the rumor that the current rule of the world has not been long in front of Zukazai does not require ordinary courage. I am afraid that it was first spread among the low-level officials of the national government before it reached Wei Shenzhi's ears. , At that time, it was too late to track down.

But Le Jun also noticed another thing.

Wei knew that what he was talking about was "news" rather than "rumours", so every word he uttered had to be carefully thought out, because even a casual joke could be taken seriously by the subordinates. The big movement in the church may not be a rumor, but a fact.

Sure enough, Wei Shenzhi went on to say: "This news came from the Hall of Renzhong, and it is probably true. I also know that Mr. Taifu had this idea a long time ago."

Le Jun thought about it, and finally nodded in agreement.

According to Yan Qi's approach, such rumors should not be spread before there is a real change, just like Mingxi's change in the second year, which was completed without any reaction from everyone.

An edict was issued overnight, and the transferred officials did not know the news of their transfer until they received the three-foot silk.

So Le Jun felt very strange before, thinking that such rumors were false.

However, considering that Wei Shen knew the rumor that "the Ming Dynasty will be cut off within ten years", it is much more understandable for Xi Qi to do so.

It stands to reason that it is precisely because of such rumors that the government should maintain stability and appease everyone's restless mood. However, Le Jun also knows that Qilin is not the kind of Qilin who can use such a negative way of coping—— It was too late for Wei Shenzhi and Yan Qi to know about this rumor, and it would be impossible to forcefully stop or track down the culprit. At this time, is there a better way to suppress the rumor than to create a new topic?

Feeling a little relieved, Le Jun raised his head and teased, "So you know you're not worried? There are rumors about Xizhou Lingyin and you."

Wei Shenzhi waved his hand, "There's nothing to worry about, the rabbit hasn't been caught yet, and I haven't reached the level of a lackey who should be boiled into meat soup, but..."

He looked at Le Jun, obviously wanting to say something, but finally closed his mouth.

"What..." Le Jun looked at his weird face, and wanted to ask, but finally changed his mind, and just complained.

"Sorry," Wei Shenzhi's face became so serious for the first time in the chat with him, "but this news...if I tell you it will hurt you, so I can't say it...at least not now .”

After Wei Shenzhi finished speaking, he took a deep look at Le Jun.

The news he didn't say is the second half of the rumor that "the Mingxi Dynasty will be cut off within ten years": "The new king who will inherit the Mingxi Dynasty will be the current Marquis of Chengzhou, Zhang Qing, and the current King Gong is his." stepping stone."

Le Jun probably hasn't felt it yet. Originally, when he joined Ao Shuang to report on his duties, although he had few entertainments, it was not completely absent. However, the reason why his surroundings were so clean during this period of time was probably due to the fact that other officials wanted to avoid suspicion. And intentionally alienate?

——Wei Shenzhi knows it. In terms of talent alone, Le Jun has the qualifications to be a king. In the history of various countries, although there is no such precedent in Qiaoguo, it is not uncommon for other countries to be kings with half-beasts .

The previous Cuo Wang had the same surname as Le Jun. Therefore, after Cuo Wang abdicated, because of the entry in Tiangang that "the same surname cannot be a king", Le Jun was absolutely impossible to be the new king. throne.

But after Gongqi chose Jiegen as the king, this restriction disappeared.

The original surname of Wang Xi is Yu, which is different from Le Jun’s Zhang surname. Because there is another king, if Jie Gen abdicates, it is not impossible for Le Jun to become king.

Not only that, if this is the case, the rumors that the root is Le Jun's stepping stone will be more grounded, just like the emperor of heaven originally wanted Le Jun to be the king, but because of Tian Gang, he intervened between the wrong king and Le Jun. It's like such an inactive queen...

Besides, why must it be Le Jun?

Although Wei knows that he agrees with his ability, other people may not think so. There are no fewer than ten people who are equal to or above him in official positions in this clever country. Why is it Le Jun?

Wei Shenzhi felt deeply afraid, and he didn't dare to think about it anymore.

It is precisely because this rumor is so eloquent and true that it has reached the point where people cannot simply regard it as a rumor.

——Is this really, just a rumor?
