When Ouyang Bian came back, he felt a strange atmosphere, but he was not easy to ask in public, what if it was a secret matter of the other family.

But seeing Zeng Bu's despair as if he was lost, Ouyang Bian found Zeng Gong privately.

"Brother Zigu, why are Brother Zixuan so frustrated today? Brother Zidi and his two seem to be unaware of it, but what are you doing not doing well?"

As soon as Ouyang Bian came up, he took retreat as advance.

Zeng Gong stammered: "Monk, this matter is the private matter of my brothers..."

Oh, brother's private affairs, this is to exclude me. How can this be done? I can feed you food and drink. Even doing things like making clothes, I still treat me as an outsider!

Ouyang Bian's face turned cold and he smiled and said, "So that's the case, I'm taking the initiative. Since that's the case, I won't talk much. Brother Zigu, it's getting late, so you can rest as soon as possible."

As he said that, Ouyang Bian turned around and left.

Zeng Gong suddenly became anxious and reached out to grab Ouyang Bian's shoulder: "Monkey, please wait."

Ouyang Bian's face was light, but he almost burst into laughter.

It’s not that he had to listen to the secrets of other brothers, but he just wanted to deepen the relationship. There were several ways to do it. Later, wasn’t there the so-called four major brothers?

We carried the gun together, passed the window together, squatted in the cell together, and worked together to have sex with Chang together.

To sum up, these four irons have a common feature, that at that time, everyone was the true nature, and they were all showing their true nature, without masks, no concealment, no pretentiousness, no entanglements of interests or money disputes.

Or…having a common secret and experience.

When there is no way to get along in extreme environments, it is good to have a common secret.

"Brother Zigu still has something to do?" Ouyang Bian asked softly.

Zeng Gong looked at Ouyang Bian with a cold face and felt quite fortunate for a moment. He knew that if Ouyang Bian was left just now, he would lose this friend.

Yes, Zeng Gong regarded Ouyang Bian as a friend, and did not regard him as a child just because he was much older than Ouyang Bian.

On the contrary, Zeng Gong felt that Ouyang Bian could be both a teacher and a friend, and similar experiences made him feel close to him from the bottom of his heart.

If Ouyang Bian was asked to leave just now, perhaps Ouyang Bian would still take care of their Zeng brothers in every possible way in the future, but it might be an ordinary relationship between brothers and sisters.

"Monk, I want to apologize to you on behalf of Zixuan..."

Zeng Gong explained the future and the ends one by one. Ouyang Bian listened with a smile, but his heart was filled with coldness.

Zeng Bu is probably the best official among the Zeng brothers. He studied with his brother Zeng Gong and passed the imperial examination, but he did better than Zeng Gong's official position.

In the second year of Xining, he was recommended by Wang Anshi and was appreciated by Emperor Shenzong of Song. He was in charge of the implementation of the new law. He jointly formulated the exemption and Baojia laws with Lu Huiqing. He was effective and promoted to the Three Divisions.

In the seventh year of Xining, the conservative school led by the Empress Dowager and the Kings to launch anti-reform, which made Song Shenzong shake.

In order to cater to Song Shenzong, Zeng Bu made reasons to attack Lu Jiawen and others who were in charge of the Yifa of the People's Republic of China, causing division within the New Law School.

In the first year of Shaosheng, Song Zhezong took power. He was recommended by Prime Minister Zhang Dun and served as the head of the Privy Council. He praised Zhang Dun's theory of "Shaoshu" and presided over the border opening activities of Xixia with Zhang Dun.

However, in the activities of opening the border, restoring the new laws and cracking down on the Yuanyou Party, he often had objections with Zhang Dun, Cai Bian and others, and also obstructed Lu Huiqing from returning to the court to serve.

When Emperor Huizong of Song was established, Zeng Bu agreed with Empress Dowager Xiang, rejected Zhang Dun, and promoted him to the position of Shangshu Youpushe and the Secretariat of the Secretariat. Later, because he cited his relatives, he was attacked by Cai Jing.

Zeng Bu likes to write diaries. In his diary, he records the story of his report to Zhezong. Obviously, in Zeng Bu's opinion, this is not a shameful thing, and he is even a little proud.

Because, at least, it shows that he, the Holy Family, was not easy to report to the emperor, and it was even more difficult to allow the emperor to approve the report.

It is said that Zhezong once had a chat with Zeng Bu.

Seeing that the time was right, Zeng Bu started to report, saying that Zhang Dun and Cai Bian would argue whenever they encountered problems, and the government often delayed.

After hearing this, Zhezong asked why.

At this time, Zeng Bu deliberately tried to be careless and pretended to be stupid.

After Zhezong asked, he quickly said that Zhang and Cai were not concerned about state affairs, but only considered their own wealth.

Moreover, they formed a clique in their words.

This is a perfect villain.

Ouyang Bian sneered in his heart, no wonder he was included in the "Biography of Treacherous Ministers".

He took care of him meticulously, and he actually despised himself for being sophisticated. If he took care of himself a little bit poor, would he just look down on the snob who looked down on poor friends?

Tsk!

After hearing Zeng Gong's words, Ouyang Bian thought for a while and said, "Brother Zigu is too full of blame. Brother Zixuan may not have any malice. It is normal for him to read the saint's books and it is not necessary to be aware of the business matters. There is no need to punish so fiercely. It is just a matter of concept. Brother Zigu has already educated him, so why bother to waste his time?"

Zeng Gong looked at Ouyang Bian deeply and said, "Monk, this is not a matter of concept. To be gentle, it means to be grateful but not repay the kindness, and to say the key point is to be ungrateful..."

Ouyang Bian quickly waved his hand and said, "The words are heavy, the words are heavy." But he said in his heart: "Isn't this just an ungrateful wolf!"

Zeng Gong said: "Monk, you are my junior brother, it's okay to know this. But I have to hit him well this time, so don't interfere."

Ouyang Bian suddenly saw someone flashing through the window, and suddenly had an idea in his heart, and he shouted: "Brother Zigu, I can understand your thoughts on educating your younger brother. I clearly mean that Brother Zixuan is not a bad person, but he is still very good at me.

I especially respect his knowledge and character. This time it is probably just a mistake. Please give him the opportunity to participate in this imperial examination for my sake. It is not easy to have ten years of hard work, and it is even more difficult to travel thousands of miles apart. Why bother Brother Zixuan's bright future!"

Zeng Gong looked at Ouyang Bian deeply: "Monk, do you really think so?"

Ouyang Bian smiled and said, "That's natural. When I get along with you day and night, I can naturally feel your brothers' love for me. How can I not know it!"

Zeng Gong nodded: "Since you are a monk, you plead with me, I will give him a chance, but I have to leave him alone for a few days to make him have a longer temperament!"

Ouyang Bian nodded with a smile.

The next day, when I saw Zeng Bu, Zeng Bu was very friendly to him and could eat, Ouyang Bian just smiled but said nothing.
