Chapter 76: Where is the ambition?

Lord Zhongshu Ling couldn't explain it at all. He couldn't say that his daughter was stolen in person.

It is even more embarrassing not to talk about this for now, and few people believe it.

Tang Hanyu could only retire and return home, staying away from the gossip of Bianliang.

"Master, are you really leaving?"

"If I don't leave, I'm afraid I won't be able to survive this year." Tang Hanyu sighed.

As soon as his memorial was launched, it was immediately approved, and the young emperor had no trace of nostalgia for this old minister.

He was ambitious and wanted to achieve great goals and strive for governance. Unfortunately, the ruler did not rely on temporary passion after all. The new king arranged his own people to take office, but he did not know how many ministers were loyal to the royal family in the court, so he could only let his subordinates do it.

Today, the capital is slowly becoming the world of Chen Shou. He not only controls the eunuchs, but also reaches his hand to the outer court and quickly harvests Wei Yunse's old subordinates.

It won't take long to fully control the court. Unless a local army forcibly invades the capital, no one can do anything to him.

In front of the Zhongshuling gate, several little beggars squatting there. You can see that these beggars are very energetic, with bright eyes, clean hands and feet, and lazy sunbathing.

Suddenly, a teenager approached and kicked one of the beggars in the butt.

He stood up and touched his left hand to his waist. After seeing the person who kicked him clearly, he smiled and said, "Zhao Hong, you are damn sick, why are you kicking me?"

Zhao Hong slapped him and scolded, "Do you look like a beggar?"

The little beggar smiled angrily and said, "I will pay attention next time."

"There is no next time. You can go back to Xiliang. You can make wine in Qinfeng Camp and you can also make some food."

"you!"

Zhao Hong looked at him coldly and said, "If it were a few days ago, you would have died in the hands of the prince's guards. Do you know how many spies from the White Lotus Sect are hidden here? Do you know how much information your whereabouts will be exposed? If it weren't for the sake of our childhood, I'll report it, sir, you must not spare you!"

The little beggar sighed and said, "Okay, I'll leave tonight. Say to me to the adults. I'm ready to serve the adults at any time in Xiliang."

"Who is the youngest concubine in the Tang Mansion?"

"There is another one who has not passed the door. He was arguing yesterday and the Tang Mansion lost his energy. He was looking for a daughter from a paper shop in Bianliang City. Because his unworthy son is good at gambling, he can only marry his daughter to the Tang Mansion after losing all the money, so that he can pay back the gambling debts."

Zhao Hong felt that the scene was a little familiar, so he pinched his chin and said, "Is it my surname Li?"

"That's right, how do you know?"

Zhao Hong smiled and said, "We slapped Liu Yu and squatted in the Li family's paper shop for three days. Gao Huan fell in love with the little lady in that family. Unfortunately, the adults rushed to Hejian before they could do anything. Unexpectedly, Manager Li's son was still betting, it was really a piece of mud."

"Sir, Mr. Tang, who stayed in the capital and didn't leave, just didn't want to be decent. We have to help him be decent. When they go to pick up people, we will snatch them in the street and let Old Tang get out as soon as possible."

The little beggar sighed and took it very much with the adults in the capital, but unfortunately he was about to leave.

Chen Shou's rule was extremely strict, and he did violate the rules, so Zhao Hong could be regarded as concealing it for him.

He glanced at the Tang Mansion and left sadly. Zhao Hong took his place, sat down at the teahouse next to him, and whispered: "Shopkeeper, come and make a pot of tea!"

---

"Three glasses of wine in the world, and one bowl of tea in the great affairs of the future."

Chen Shou pointed to the teacup in his hand and smiled, "Look at this landscape, the snow country is like a painting, covered with thousands of miles, but you know that what is buried under the snow is the burning magma that is about to burst out. I dare to assert that when the snow melts, it is when the alien races go south and the powerful rise together."

Opposite him was a middle-aged scholar with a talented figure and elegant appearance. He was the first strategist of the General Mansion of Xiliang, Li Wei's confidant, Jiang Xiangyu.

Chen Shou's passionate and generous speech, coupled with the handsome and beautiful scenery under the summer palace, was very inflammatory. Jiang Xiangyu drank a sip of tea, unmoved, and smiled and said, "Brother Shou, we are not incomprehensible to what you did. When I asked you to come to the capital alone, it was a bit unlucky. Neither the old coach nor I expected that the situation in the capital was so turbulent.

"You have experienced countless risks to get to this point, and you can be said to be terrifying every step. But are the methods you have now become a bit cruel? You should know that since ancient times, it has been difficult for those who have added power to their colleagues to end up with good endings."

After Jiang Xiangyu finished speaking, he glanced at Chen Shou's face and unexpectedly found that what he said did not change his face at all.

Chen Shou's eyes were very casual and seemed to be very relaxed. I don't know if he didn't listen to his words or listened thoroughly.

Jiang Xiangyu sighed in his heart and continued to persuade: "Do you know that there was a cruel official named Zhidu in the Han Dynasty. He dared to face ministers in the court and acted without avoiding relatives and nobles. When he was still the prefect, he would hunt and kill playboys as soon as he took office and destroy the powerful. The powerful and powerful did not dare to look at him directly and call him "Gahawk".

Zhang Tang, more famous than Zhidu, specialized in governing princes and princes, killing wealthy merchants, big surnames, and powerful people, and is known for his strengths.

When Wang Wenshu was governing Guangping, he hunted and killed the rich and cunning county officials, and even sat in more than a thousand families, bleeding for more than ten miles. In less than a year, he killed even the thieves in the county, and they were no longer seen. It was said that they would not pick up the remains! These cruel officials were not only capable, but also most of them were very honest. Zhidu never accepted gifts, and when he was in office, he did not even dismantle private messages written to him by relatives and friends.

After Zhang Tang's death, his inheritance was less than 500 gold, and Wang Wenshu didn't even have fifty gold. The cruel official of the Sui Dynasty, Di Shiwen, was even more willing to be poor and had no money in his family. Such officials were capable and honest, and should have been praised by everyone. But why did everyone hate them from ancient times to the present, from officials to the people, and end up with a detriment that lasted for thousands of years?"

Chen Shou smiled and said, "I hope to hear it carefully."

Jiang Xiangyu sighed: "Because they are cruel in their means, they often commit serious crimes with minor crimes. When they encounter cases, they are afraid that they will not be big, and they are implicated. No one knows whether his murderous steel knife will fall on his head inexplicably the next moment."

"Shou Ge'er, you have recently been suppressing the case of rebelling against the prince, and it has been implicated. In addition, the imperial guards have almost been slaughtered by you. In the long run, I am afraid that everyone in Bianliang will fear you like a tiger. Over time, it will not be a good thing."

Chen Shou was still as calm as water. He chuckled, stood up and turned his back to Jiang Xiangyu, looking at Jinsong at the foot of the mountain.

"Is this what the sir means or what the old coach means?"

"Haha, this is my simple opinion and I have not communicated with the old coach."

Chen Shou pondered for a moment and said, "Mr. I think of the boy everywhere, and Chen Shou is moved by his heart. However, the waves are floating and rising, and we are just a small boat. As the saying goes, sail against the current, if you don't advance, you will retreat. My brothers and I have no way out."

Chen Shou touched his neck and turned around and smiled, "Sir, there are countless people in the world who want to chop off this head. If I don't kill anyone, I want to kill me."

Jiang Xiangyu didn't know what he was thinking, but said directly: "If you teach you that you are safe and sound, there is no way. As long as you are willing to give up your power, return to Xiliang and marry the second lady, are you still afraid that you will not be able to enjoy a lifetime of wealth?"

Chen Shou frowned slightly and said, "How can a real man do this?"
