  Chapter 2590 Who can rival the taste of power in the Guizi scroll?

   King Zhonghui was so decisive this time that even his brother King Zhongshun was impressed.

  When he left Feng Ziying's mansion and returned to the carriage, King Zhongshun couldn't help asking: "Old Ten, why is your attitude a little different this time, and you are so actively participating in the development of Liaodong?"

   "Why, Brother Ninth, do you think something is wrong?" King Zhonghui sat firmly in the carriage and asked calmly.

"It's not wrong. With our relationship with Ziying, he won't harm us, but Ziying also said that this may be a long-term investment. People don't look down on three or five million taels of silver. It's easy to pay hundreds of dollars. Wanji, the imperial court's household department couldn't bear it, so he agreed to find a way out by himself, or why did the Shanxi merchants and Jiangnan merchants send prominent figures to negotiate? We have to invest in it, and I'm afraid we won't expect to get back the capital within ten years,... "

   King Zhongshun reminded.

"I didn't even think about getting it back in ten years. I just thought that with this investment, it would be best if I could enjoy the dividends steadily for thirty to fifty years, wouldn't it be good? Ninth brother, how many years can you and I live?" , the friendship with Ziying is not bad, but what about our descendants? Who can stop Ziying's momentum, Qi Yongtai is already paving the way for it, and five years later he came back from Liaodong and gave a minister I'm afraid it's too light, if not, he will join the cabinet, and if he wants to become the chief assistant, it may take him 10 or 20 years, maybe..."

King Zhonghui clicked his tongue and said, "Look at the current situation. He summoned the Wang family, the leading merchants in Shanxi, the Weng family, the leader of the Jiangnan merchants, and the He family, the number one leader of the salt merchants. In the business world of the Great Zhou Dynasty, there is no one who dares not to follow, based on this, is it possible that he can't do things in Liaodong?"

"I've never doubted it, but with us..." King Zhongshun pondered for a moment, "Do you think we should further strengthen our relationship with him now? Our relationship with him has already reached this point, and we still need it Go any further?"

Zhonghui Wang sighed leisurely, "Ninth brother, we have to think farther away. You and I are old, and we may not be there in a decade or two, but what about the descendants, and with the current relationship between the court and the emperor, many things are true. You can’t say for sure, you’re right to say I’m unfounded, but our Zhang family replaced the Zhu family, and the Great Zhou replaced Qianming. How many others have obtained good results? Hehe, so the Three Caves of the Cunning Rabbit, it’s always right for us to take an extra move.”

King Zhongshun fell into deep thought. After a long time, he nodded and said: "Ziying's future is limitless. No matter what happens in the future, it will never be wrong to have a close relationship with him. How about this? I'll go and call Lao Ba, you Go talk to Fifth Sister and see if they are willing to participate in this round of Liaodong development. In the future, dividends and rewards are one thing. Now that we have formed a good relationship, I am afraid that the benefits will be even greater in the future."

King Zhonghui laughed when he heard what King Zhongshun said, "It's still Brother Ninth who is amazing, and he came to our big family all at once, so we don't have to worry about Brother Huang. Since he is sitting in that position, he is also I can’t back down, his house has its own destiny, and those of us who stand aside have to rely on ourselves, right? We took the right step in Haitong Yinzhuang, but it’s not enough, Liaodong is more worthy of betting,..."

  When Niu Jizong came to Wang Ziteng's mansion, he glanced at the looming follower behind him, ignored him, and swaggered into Wang Ziteng's house.

Although they all hold posts in the Dudu's Mansion of the Five Armies, in fact they don't need to go to the Dudu's Mansion of the Five Armies, and those who hold the titles in the Dudu's Mansion of the Five Armies, such as Dudu, Dudu Tongzhi, and Dudu Qianshi, are not He will work in the Mansion of the Commander-in-Chief of the Five Armies.

There is only one person who actually works in the Dudu Mansion of the Five Armies. From the fifth rank, there are also a few from the seventh rank. If you don't come to worry about it on the side of the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, naturally there is the Ministry of War.

  With the end of the Jiangnan incident, the turmoil that had been agitated had dimmed silently.

  Niu Jizong and Wang Ziteng made a good arrangement. Of course, their age is here, and it is impossible to sharpen their heads like Sun Shaozu to find a new deputy chief soldier to fight.

  The two of them are over 60 or approaching 60, and they no longer have the energy and physical strength to make a comeback, and the court will not agree, after all, their situation is not the same as that of Sun Shaozu.

  But the fire suppressed in the depths of Niu Jizong's heart has never been extinguished.

   Straight into the door, went straight to Wang Ziteng's study, but watched Wang Ziteng splashing ink, copying a piece of calligraphy.

   "Where the flowers are blooming and willows are dense, it is the means to open them; when the wind is violent and the rain is sudden, stand still, and then you will see your feet."

  Ignoring Niu Jizong who came in, Wang Ziteng finished writing in one breath, then dropped his hair, put his hands behind his back, and after savoring carefully, he raised his head in satisfaction: "How is it?"

   "This picture, or the content of the words?" Niu Jizong said coldly.

   "Both of them. The heart can be seen from the artistic conception of the words, and the realm can be seen from the connotation of the words." Wang Ziteng glanced at the impetuous Niu Jizong, curled his lips in disapproval, "How can you plan big things with this little city?"

"Hmph, you and I are already sixty years old, what's the big deal?" Niu Jizong sneered, "I just think you really seem to have left everything behind now, and the emperor seems to be a different person, never to return." With the spirit of the past,…”

"Okay, when did he have any courage? Didn't we drive the ducks on the shelves and force him to leave? Now is his true face, hmph, no wonder Tang Miu and Zhu Gu have to abandon him without hesitation. Now What else can he think about, isn't he just wanting to use various methods to seek his lineage to succeed the prince? Go talk to the cabinet, make an order to reach an agreement with the cabinet, say that he is willing to give up everything, and just be a puppet with seals and seals , the cabinet must agree, but they are unwilling in their hearts, and they have no other skills to make troubles, so they can only pretend to be deaf and dumb like this?"

  Wang Ziteng's words were like a knife, and he immediately peeled off the mask of Emperor Wantong.

  Niu Jizong was tongue-tied and didn't know what to do for a moment. After a long while, he sighed and sat down. "What about what we said before? Could it be that there is no hope?"

"Who said no?" Wang Ziteng asked back, his eyes became clearer, "I feel that hope is getting bigger and bigger. I agree with his words. Those who have tasted the taste of power are hard to let go, no one is an exception. So does he."
